Apart from normal [[Bounty Voucher|bounty vouchers]] for wanted ships, players have the unique opportunity to collect [[Combat Bond Voucher|combat bond vouchers]] in conflict zones if they choose to side with a faction and battle the opposition. These combat bond vouchers can be redeemed for credits at any station in the system.

The [[GalNet]] news feed accessible when docked at stations usually reports on which [[Star Systems|star system]] is currently the center of major conflict. It is worthwhile to follow up on other star systems in the general for they usually wind up in tumult as well.
