It's called chasing, the TLDR of it is dossiering raider nations and following their moves, there are tools to make it easier, the most ubiquitous nowadays being Reliant.

Minor 2026-05-03: Liberation of RPS

Absolute defender victory despite raiderdom's best efforts

For the first time in many months, raiderdom has managed to gather enough pilers to hold a region with a double-digit endorsement count on their delegate.

The combined forces of LWU, TBH and TCB poured their blood, sweat and tears into gathering a mighty coalition - and didn't even manage to surpass 40 endorsements.

Once again, the Galactic Armada and the League's Defense Forces ride into battle to protect the innocent regions of this world, with the updater force from our two regions single-handedly nearly rivaling the raider coalition, and with the help of our defender friends, RPS has been seized back and is ready to be returned to its rightful owners.

One must wonder, when their delegate endorsements are in freefall, when their vice-delegates keep ceasing to exist, when every military operation they attempt ends in disastrous failure, what exactly are Bloc Patriots claiming to be in control of?

With numerical superiority, the 43 defender endorsements were an easy match for the 30-something-""strong"" PRAF/LWU/TBH coalition that assembled on a whole ass 12 hour's notice.

A complete joke of a hold for a complete joke of a faction. Now we get to watch Bloc Patriots and Raider Unity fall right back into the depths they crawled out of.

Amazing job as always to Starborn and everyone who showed up today!

Glad to serve the armada once again!

Bloc Patriots truly are in control. Assuming you call "in control" more like "getting stomped" then it's perfectly accurate.

Giathio knows where he is at all times. He knows this because he knows where he isn’t. By subtracting where he is from where he isn’t, or where he isn’t from where he is (whichever is greater), he obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses this deviation to propel the giathio towards the assigned target (Raiderdom)

Stats were gunned down for being raiders
