Upon entering Conflict Zones are randomly populated with NPC fighter [[ships]] of the warring factions and players can choose to fight for a side via an interface that will appear in the message pane of the comms panel. Once on a side they will continue to communicate about the status of the battle: each enemy destroyed, allies destroyed, and when nearing victory or defeat.

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 at any local station in the system.
