Just a friendly reminder that for single ships fighting for the Order, the low CZ may be a better and safer option for the times you can't get a wing. Ramming has become the favorite tactic for large Crimsom ships in the high CZ. Even strengthened hulls only last so long.

It's done. My right hand may be curled for a day or so from holding that joystick so tight. I knocked off the remaining 3,500 merits today!

From the start of this insanity to the end I went up 17% of my rank. So at 77% Dangerous :)

Current galaxy wide bounty is 2.1 million though :P Pretty poor if you ask me lol

Oh and I finally figured out what is going on when you interdict and suddenly you may see the interdiction HUD double and sometimes triple.

This is not lag as I thought. What is happening is your target is over a planet which also may have other NPC ships as well as an outpost or station all landing inside your target reticle. So, the program makes duplicates of the interdiction HUD. If you stay on target you will get an automatic fail as you can't interdict a planet or station, obviously! What you can do is move your targeting off the mess for a moment to make it clear and then reacquire your target. It doesn't always work but its a loss anyway so why not try.

Went to to warzone for a while. Flew in a wing for a while, but after that didin't see any Commanders in there.

Made about 4 million and drove capital ship away.

Brief update from the Exioce warfront. There are now 2 high CZ's and the location of these have moved. We have also gained ground and are 3.1% away from the 15% victory threshold.

It's now 18.7% for OoM & 6.8 % for Crimsom. We have a lead of 11.9% :)

Edit - Sorry no low CZ.

Grinding my Empire rank up to get a purchase permit for Cutter, want it for trading. I hope the black friday paint hides it's ugly shapes.. But then again I very rarely see my own ship so no worries. The grind itself is just so extremely boring, I wish there was another way instead of repeating one thing hundreds of times.. At least I make some credits while doing this unlike the Federation grind which costed few millions on top of being at least as boring.

Please be advised that the Exioce CZs the Order is fighting in has heated up again. We lost another large ship last night after it was ganged up on by 5 Crimsom ships (including a Cutter). Commanders are advised again to wing up and fight at the edges. And don't be caught near the center of the CZ when the enemy ships respawn. They will all gang up on you as Judson and I found out last night.
