What happened to my legion/friends?
A NEW legion system is now available that allows players to establish their own organized alliance and
invite specific players into it. Leaders can name their legion and have full control over its management
and structure. A legion can have up to 50 players in its roster.

Why the change?
The previous system required that new players invite a large number of facebook (sometimes random) friends in order to
best take advantage of the bonuses legions had to offer. Organized legions have also been requested for quite a long time, as a way to
make it easier for a larger number of players to work together, rather than a disorganized network
of networks. The new system also allows for many exciting new features to be added that were not possible
with the prior system.

What will happen to my existing group of friends?
A: Your facebook friends will be viewable in a new area called 'View Friends'. This will allow you
to track where your friends are and what legions they are in. You can also invite your friends
into your own legion if they have not already joined one. Galaxy Legion will also inform you when
you come across a friends' ship or planet in your travels, and you may attack them if you wish :)

What are the benefits of the new legion structure?
Legions offer many of the benefits of the prior system, and more:

* Legion members can share locations of planets and elite/boss enemy ships
* Legion members can alert for help against enemy players
* You can send artifacts and minerals to your legion and/or your friends
* Legion members can repair each others ships and help construct structures on planets
* players recieve a 2% bonus to planetary attack, defense, and cloak for each active legion member
* Legion members can communicate using a private comm system
* Legion leaders and officers can manage invitations and roster for their group

Can I still gift and send items to my friends?
Yes, posting an extra artifact gift on your facebook profile will still allow your friends to gather them.
You can also still send artifacts and minerals to your friends OR your legion members - its your choice.

Are there any other benefits to my large group of Galaxy Legion friends?
Having a large group of friends is a great place to start when forming a new legion or recruiting
into an existing one. There may be additional benefits added in the future!

Legion Structure
How are legions organized?
Legions have the following roles:
* Leader. The leader can change any information for the legion, invite members into the legion, promote/demote members, kick members, and disband the entire legion.
* Officer. An officer is allowed to invite other members into the legion, kick standard members, and post in the officers comm area.
* Member. A standard member has no special legion privileges other than to communicate in the standard comm area.

How do I add other members to my legion?
Members can request to be added by:

* Finding your legion from the legion search area or player link and requesting to join
* Clicking on a legion invite link

Leaders and Officers can accept as many invitations as they wish, up to the maximum legion size.

You can also directly invite friends that you wish to have join your legion. They will be notified
and have the option to accept the invite.

Can multiple legions ally together?
Currently, there are no diplomacy options between legions. Each is independent and an enemy of all others....

The mission chain for The Glaviz and Zolazin is now archived, and begins at rank 5, so it should be available to just about everyone!

As with the last Prejor mission chain, you must complete the chain in a certain order (the same order as was given during the live setting):

The Glaviz Incident
The Zolazin Pursuit
The Zolazin Battle
The Glaviz Vendetta
Vornexa's Taunt
Spoils of War

There will be something special about the end of this chain that players will see very soon in an upcoming new mission being added. If you think you know how this mission ended, you may be in for a surprise.

Many new legion symbols have been added to choose from. Even more to come!

When building on Legion members' planets, the structures available will now only show the buildings that you (the builder) and the planet owner have both researched.

Adjustments have been made to rank 200+ mineral shipments to account for increased costs of equipment and upkeep. In addition, a new mineral, Aidonium, has a chance to appear in shipments for players of higher ranks. Aidonium is worth roughly 10x the price of Kurenite, but uses up significantly more space in cargo. Note: Aidonium will only appear available in the trade area when first receiving a shipment of it. When additional research tiers are added, most of those modules will also require Aidonium.

Players now have the ability to use special structures ('Warehouses') on planets that increase the total mineral, artifact and/or research production capacity. These are considered premium structures, and will typically only be available from special missions, Galaxy Points, and rare encounters. Warehouses will take up a large amount of space on planets, so players should construct them only if necessary.

The currently available warehouse structures are available on the artifact market:

Mineral Storage Tower
Increases your total planetary mineral production capacity by 1000 units.

Artifact Warehouse
Increases your total planetary artifact production capacity by 2000 points.

Research Data Archive
Increases your total research production capacity by 1000 points.

Artifact stacks can now be partially scrapped and/or sent to legion/friends, similar to minerals.
The Artifact list is now sorted alphabetically.

Containment cages are now granted as single-use, instead of coming as stacks of 3.
