A follow-up to Alliance Territorial Control focused on making your alliance's systems easier to manage and defend, a new auto-renew option for the Trade Union, and a batch of combat, donation, and performance fixes.<blockquote>New to alliance play? See the full Alliances guide, or open '''Settings → Quick Guides''' in-game.</blockquote>

== New Features ==

=== Alliance system management ===

* New '''Alliance Systems''' view lists every system your alliance controls — Headquarters first, then Divisions — with at-a-glance indicators for active building upgrades, defense production, and the shared alliance research.
* Jump straight from the list to dispatch '''Survey''', '''Harvest''', '''Station''', or '''Donate''' fleets to any controlled system.
* Alliance building details now show clear per-building stat readouts: '''Alliance Level''', '''Vault Capacity''', '''Research Speed''', '''Diplomacy Slots''', '''Relic Capacity''', '''Build Speed''', '''Defense Slots''', and '''Common / Rare Output'''.

=== See who's defending ===

* The Fleet List now has an '''Alliance''' tab: see fellow members' fleets traveling to and stationed at your controlled system centers, so you always know who is helping to hold the line.

=== Auto-Renew trade offers ===

* Trade offers can now be set to '''Auto-Renew''': once an offer is fulfilled — by a buyer or by the Trade Union — an identical offer is created automatically. If you don't have enough resources at renewal time, it's simply skipped.
* Auto-Renew is an '''Imperial Access''' feature.

=== Scout pirates from the scan panel ===

* Detected a pirate system on your scan? You can now dispatch a '''Scout''' fleet to it directly from the pirate scan panel.

=== More animated buildings ===

* New animated building sprites, including the '''Ascension Gate''' and '''Arctic'''-themed building skins (plus an updated Fusion Reactor), for players using the '''Animated Buildings''' option.

== Improvements ==

* '''System-harvest research''' effects now display clearly — '''Refinery Cap''', '''Max Cycles''', and '''Cycle Time Reduction'''.
* '''One-click harvest''' now warns when you don't have enough Orbital Refineries to fully harvest a nebula zone's gas, and lets you send anyway.
* The daily system-share delivery fleet is now labeled '''Tribute Delivery'''.
* Coordinated-attack "fleet too weak" messages now show the tonnage you sent versus the minimum required.
* Clearer guidance that an alliance '''Headquarters can't be attacked''' — only Divisions can be conquered.
* '''Base relics''' now clearly indicate they can't be equipped directly; purchase a variant in the Bazaar to use them.
* New '''Hide Unusable Slots''' setting hides empty building slots on planets, moons, and alliance surfaces once nothing more can be built there.
* Exploration return notifications and mail now include the destination colony's coordinates, and fleet-return notifications read more naturally.
* Clearer messaging when a boost can't be applied to an alliance colony, and when a building is already at its maximum level.

== Balance ==

* '''Territorial Expansion''' research now grants '''+5 systems per level''' (up from +1), so alliances can grow their territory limit much faster.

== Bug Fixes ==

* Fixed combat '''defender-win''' resolution and corrected '''stun''' handling so partially stunned fleets resolve using full owned-ship counts.
* Fixed '''alliance vault donation''' issues.
* Fixed a '''fleet launch''' slowness (performance) issue.
* Improved '''FCS coordinated-attack alerts''' and resolved several '''system-conquering''' edge cases.
* Fixed '''Colony Relocate''' leaving an empty moon slot orbiting a vacated planet, and clarified the Colony Relocate description.

== Announcement ==

* '''Lifetime Imperial Access is being retired after July 31.''' If you already own it, nothing changes — it stays yours for life with every benefit. After that date, Imperial Access will be available only through timed packages, unlocked with Imperial Credits earned in-game or Quantum Shards from the Store.
