Vessels hauling return commodities from Sigma-17 are considered combat targets. Return commodities are not considered for scoring purposes.
Bonuses have been added to return commodities for GMG, Cryer, Outcast, and Corsair IDs.
Changes are effective on server restart.
Is the No-Fire-Zone around FP9 in Theta suspended for as long as the event goes?

I am of the opinion that being able to trade on any ID is completely breaking the event, as there is massive gain in being able to deliver to base, but no penalty when destroyed.
Can it be restricted to the IDs involved in the event? I don't know if this is possible.

But then there would be a lot less trade ships in general. If you stop a shipment, they suffer the penalty of losing like 10 mil, can't resume immediately, and it sets back that side back for a bit.
Perhaps it could be linked to attacking ID? If you shoot a ship down using one of the event ID's it could pay a bounty...?

All 3 sides can have non native ID trading - it's completely fair

It breaks it more that the event is biased to lawful side. Its essentially 2 vs 1 vs 1
I dont see why other factions cant join in on the trade part of the event
I agree with Megaera, it is biased with 2v1v1, the Hogosha and Golden Crysanthemums should be allowed to balance it up.
I also think those trading as Corsair, Cryer, GMG, Outcast IDs should gain more of a bonus, than the normal traders, to promote activity on those factions.
The prices still seem very low for a risk of losing 15million credits, which i think is putting off a few players.
