Overview
Based in the rings, the Ganymedeans For Anarchy(G4A) are comprised of displaced native Ganymedeans, their ringborn children, and anti-establishment individuals who consider themselves Ganymedean. Unable to return to society and hunted by the Vilcy, they resort to piracy to survive. G4A regards miners as prey, ambushing and extorting them wherever possible, and attacks Vilcy bounty hunters on sight.
Reputation
Crewmembers with ties to G4A can establish a temporary neutrality between G4A and their captain, allowing for the possibility of trade when they would otherwise be hostile.
Trading with G4A will gradually improve standing, and assisting them in battles will greatly improve standing.
Anarchists which fear you, likely as a result of a history of unprovoked attacks, can be extorted and will be unwilling to engage in combat.
Bounties
After meeting with the Big Bad Wolf, G4A lifepods and ships can be brought to it for a reward between E$50,000-100,000, in addition to the lifepod recovery fee received at Enceladus Prime.
Station
Crewmembers with ties to G4A can provide you with the astrogation coordinates to their station. Here, you can:
- Establish trades
- Purchase drinks for your crew, substantially raising their morale
- Access GANet, which allows members to communicate with one another. It also provides information on one's current standing with the faction. If one's standing is poor, attempting to access GANet will revoke their docking privileges.
The station can also be encountered naturally by following a Big Lidar Contact astrogation point given to you by a civilian miner.
Trade
There are multiple ways to trade with G4A:
- The station will accept either Mass Driver Ammunition(E$7,500/1,000kg)or Nanodrone Components(E$15,000/1,000kg).
- Given sufficient standing, the station will sell you the location of a modified and loaded THI-CC for E$100,000.
- Given sufficient standing, anarchists found naturally in the rings will sell the coordinates of derelict ships for E$200,000.
Ships
Anarchists found naturally in the rings fly basic K37s and are armed with EMD-14 mass drivers. Their weaponry enables them to trade roughly 1-to-1 with Vilcy ships, though their flight behaviors are indistinguishable from other factions.
Notes
- The station trades only one resource(Ammunition or Components) at a time. Their preference changes weekly.
- The modified THI-CC offered in trade will attempt to accelerate towards the edge of the rings upon identification on LIDAR. Although it lacks agility, it accelerates up to a velocity of 100m/s if given sufficient time, making interception dangerous for large or unwieldy craft. Its autopilot will disable when the player comes near, but will readily reactivate if the distance then increases. Upon docking in a cradle arm, the player gains ownership of the THI-CC, and can order it to return to Enceladus. It lacks a transponder, and carries a random assortment of minerals, so its total value can vary.
- Sold derelicts are not spaceworthy, and must be retrieved with an ARM. If not retrieved, they will be lost.
- Anarchist ships brought to Enceladus Prime through use of an ARM are considered your property, and are added to your fleet.
