Vol. II, No. 1 – by Ares Kiden
After a rather lengthy hiatus, The “UU” is back! But I won’t bore you with the details . . .
Flux-Hunt In-Progress
The Samwise Memorial Flux-Hunt is in-progress and has apparently gotten a number of veteran pilots to jump back into the cockpit, including Ambrosius, Audi, J_Prime, MadCat, Nammoc, Nessos, Noodles, Orome, Slopey and Yozho (to name a few I noticed). Apologies to any I missed. Kudos to RazorsKiss who organized the event, which will be running through 118.2.3.
Corporate Blues
First OPL announced layoffs on Outpost and Octavius Core stations … then Cromforge announces inventory and production cuts, and even more layoffs. Things don’t sound good for either of those giants. No peep yet from the Solrain mega-corp, Tens & Piney, but I’m sure investors are watching them closely.
New Flux Patterns
A few weeks ago, pilots began noticing some changes in the was Conflux have been spawning. Changes have been noted in Aman Hook, Blasted Corner, Bronci Rift, Hyperion Gate, Inner Aman, Main Gate and The Stith (did I miss any?). Pilot RazorsKiss (who seems to be one busy dude these days) has created an updated Conflux “threat map” and it can be found HERE.
