Been doing some reading, am I right in thinking that OoM will be heading into a civil war? The way The bgs works is there will be attempts to lessen our power/control/influence and if we win the civil war, then we can expand Into other systems?

If so, are we ready for civil war? I've not done anything in cz's other than drop out of SC and then quickly about face and run as I didn't fancy the chances of survival in my starter sidewinder..

No, civil wars happen when the influences of two factions of different types are level (or pass as one gains and the other loses) or when a faction that does not own a station/platform reaches 70%+ and even then they don't always trigger (BGS bugs).

Expansions occur when a faction has attained sufficient influence in its own system, there doesn't seem to be any definitive figure (though it appears to be anywhere between 70-85%) and may be dependent on the surrounding systems distance/economy/size etc.

A slight out of topic, but it's still about influence i think, from this topic https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=82298
a minor faction can get a new ship in their shipyard and a discount at that. CMIIW
can we make it happen for RM? maybe not a new ship but transform RM to high tech and large population, thought i believe that will be kind of long term goal.
But what i want to say are, maybe we can make vision of RM and the other station in our home system to be more unique.

There is currently no mechanism in the BGS for changing the economy type of a system and as far as I recall that link was in regards to a CG when 1.3 came out.

The goal should be to take over large population hi tech systems... No need to change our own.

Perhaps take over jameson memorial? Take over the cradle of the pilots federation and restore the PF to its original values
