The Contested Hub

The sovereignty contest in Malpais is confined to 9F-ERQ, a single system with one active campaign, and no sovereignty has changed hands. The event type is an ihub defense, meaning Itty Bitty Asteroid Committee is defending its infrastructure hub from pressure. The only observation so far shows a steady situation with the defender holding a modest 60-to-40 edge in the contest.

Too Soon to Call

With only a single observation, it remains unclear whether this contest will develop into wider pressure or settle without lasting effect. For now, Itty Bitty Asteroid Committee is defending its infrastructure hub.
