 Patch notes for Aegis Sovereignty 1.0

Released on Tuesday, July 14, 2015

Features & Changes:  Sovereignty and Alliances:

A new Nullsec Sovereignty system has been released!

Please see the following series of dev blogs for further details:

• Politics by Other Means
• Summer 2015 Nullsec and Sov Status Report
• New Details on July Sovereignty Release Schedule
• Sovereignty Transition and Deployment
• Nullsec PVE and upgrades

• Territorial Claim Units, Infrastructure Hubs, and Outposts are no longer subject to regular weapons damage. Instead an Entosis Link module is required to capture and control them.
• Ownership of Territorial Claim Units, Infrastructure Hubs, and Outposts has now been decoupled from one-another. Each different structure in a solar system can be deployed, owned, attacked and destroyed by different alliances at the same time.
• Territorial Claim Units no longer require an upkeep bill. Instead, the running costs have been moved over to bills on Infrastructure Hubs.
• Each alliance can set a Default Vulnerability Time for their sovereignty structures. This is a daily interval where structures will become vulnerable to Entosis Links. The length of this interval is based on the Activity Defense Multiplier. The ADM in turn is based on the Strategic, Military and Industrial levels of the solar system. Changes to the Default Vulnerability Time will take 48 hours to come in to effect.
• Each alliance can set a single Capital System on one solar system where they control a Territorial Claim Unit. Structures controlled by an alliance in their Capital System receive a bonus to their ADM, making them easier to defend. Changes to the Capital System will take 7 days to come in to effect.
• Destroying/capturing another alliance's sovereignty structures requires attackers to use Entosis Links on the structure during its daily vulnerability window. If this action succeeds, the structure will become invulnerable. At some some point between 24 and 72 hours later, Command Nodes will begin spawning around the constellation. Attackers and defenders must capture these nodes using Entosis Links in a tug-of-war battle in order to destroy/secure the structure.
• Sovereignty Blockade Units are now obsolete. Any SBUs in space will automatically self-destruct, whilst SBUs in hangars can be sold back to NPC buy orders.

Exploration:

• The effects of Pirate Detection Array, Entrapment Array, Survey Networks and Quantum Flux Generator infrastructure upgrades have been adjusted. See this dev blog for more details.
