The '''War for Lugh''' started when [[President of the Federation|Federal President]] [[Jasmina Halsey]] declared war against the [[Crimson State Group]] of the [[Lugh]] system on March 13, 3301. The Crimson State Group had been seeking to take control of Lugh and declare its independence from the [[Federation]]. Halsey decided to send the new [[Farragut-Class Battle Cruiser]] FNS Nevermore to fight in Lugh for its maiden flight.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/f7fd2137c685cd53746e3bf1f8ba72428ee58504 GalNet News - 13 March 3301]</ref> | |||
The Crimson State group had lobbied for help from the [[Alliance of Independent Systems]], to provide military aid and combat ready pilots. [[Alliance Prime Minister]] [[Edmund Mahon]] refused to aid the Crimson State Group, arguing that [[Lugh]] was legally ruled by the [[Federation]], hence the Crimson State Group did not rule a functioning independent state that would be a legitimate target for Alliance military aid.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5b1b39824259c8b598bc46b271181efea1d29c4d Alioth Warns Lugh They Stand Alone]</ref> | The Crimson State group had lobbied for help from the [[Alliance of Independent Systems]], to provide military aid and combat ready pilots.

[[Core Dynamics]] postponed the maiden flight of the FNS Nevermore following an embarrassing systems failure. During a weapons test, its systems opened fire on Hudson Dock instead of the target drone ship. This caused the station to automatically fire back. The result was dozens of deaths and hundreds of millions of credits worth of damage to both structures.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/a0a0942769d98cbb0e410660d3d1d619241bb372 The Nevermore Not Ready for Duty]</ref> | [[Core Dynamics]] postponed the maiden flight of the FNS Nevermore following an embarrassing systems failure.

The Trade Goals and the Fighting Goals were attached to each other. If your Trade and Fighting Goals rose in synchrony, then each station's ownership would rise, fall, or remain the same depending how each side maintained their respective CG's. The Stealth/Pirate goal was actually over the ownership of the main station in the system. This involved pirating goods out of Federation military ships. | The Trade Goals and the Fighting Goals were attached to each other.

The mercenary force of the game started to come into play. Since there were no credits to be had for the players that wanted to fight, they started working on the Crimson State Group Fighting CG. The efforts of these people put credits into their pockets and actually allowed CSG to finish their Fighting Community Goal, roughly 4-8 hours faster than the Federation would have finished their Trade Goal. This immediately ended the war, and prompted the removal of the Federation military, as well as some minor political changes to the game. | The mercenary force of the game started to come into play.
