This is why I like being independent. (I hold ranks in both navies)

I just go where the fun and the money are. Did the Hutton Mug, and now I'm hunting emperor-killing terrorists.

I found a really good place.

PHRA ZHONS - Phra Zhons Values Party Federation vs Phra Zhons Focus Independent.

The CZ I am currently at is VERY close to an outpost. Perfect place for my vulture to park lol.

I'm just desperately trying to increase my rank. I think I'm destabilizing the region further as well, which in my eyes is a very good thing; I would prefer to be here for a while.

(My goal is to get the Federal Corvette, so I only want to do work for the Feds at the moment. I can work for anyone.)

I want a Corvette, but I'm only a warrant officer with the feds, and still working towards anaconda money. (I could by an ok outfitted one if I sold my python, but I'm not doing that.)

Any word on the necessary rank and money?

In real life a corvette is commanded by a lieutenant commander. If anything that would be the lowest rank I would think it would require. It will most likely require post commander or above and cost more than a anaconda. My conservative guess would be close to 300 mill.

Still no official word though? While what you say makes sense, I really hope you're wrong. :-)

Am I right in thinking that the local community goal will hurt my measly empire rep?

Rep goes down faster than it climbs so if both faction are empire then it could. I don't know for sure but I am doing the CG anyways LOL

Had been doing BB missions for the past few days trying to gain "knight" rank in the Imperial Navy. *Accomplished*! Although it took a real effort of running an abundant amount of goods and blasting an endless amount of pirates out of they galaxy.
On a return trip to the Imperial port in Kanates (don't remember the port name) I found a CZ a stones throw away from the port itself.
Will probably be spending some time here for the next couple of days. Plenty of high intensity RES sights in the nearby systems and a CZ so close to an imperial port is just too good.
