Advanced Electronics and Cadar Syndicate

[Urza]

Hi. Love the game.

Having a hair-pulling time with Advanced Electronics missions playing alongside the Cadar Syndicate, which really doesn't seem to make much sense to me as that is the default faction, and a lot of the Hunna Missions from the Storyline and Equipment Vendor missions seem to require Advanced Electronics.

I don't know if Trade Laws fluctuate and maybe I've done something to screw myself in terms of that. There is a single Tradeaway in Fifth Pass, Cadonya, that never actually seems to sell enough Advanced Electronics to complete a missions. Usually something >20. Where you can hop over to Garrick and the Steel Song have multiple ports trading Advanced Electronics, all in quantities that are large enough to complete missions; which are all blocked off to me for helping the Cadar win a Duel of Assassins.

And then nothing. The entire Janissary Arm has 0 Cadar Aligned ports that I can find that sell Advanced Electronics. There is another Tradeway in the Dixie Maelstrom, 4 jumps from Fifth Pass, that -might- sell enough to cobble together one mission worth.

But I just bought out the entire stock of Fifth Passes -one Tradeaway- at Cadonya and I only have 6.

Am I missing something or if you aligned with Cadar Syndicate do you just -never- trade Advanced Electronics, and if that comes up in a mission you're canceling or just ignoring it?

@Urza - every map is different and with enough study, you'd find a lot of inequalities in the exact setup of faction zones and their clusters in different parts of the galaxy.

Consider an indie zone for purchase?

The amount of a resource available is going to be determined by the Economy rating and any relevant Rumors.

Also, keep an eye out for Cadar being in a Trade Alliance with anyone, as your Trade Permit will be honored by the other faction.

Then I've won the No Advanced Electronics jackpot on this map gen. Dixie netted me another whopping 13 for a grand total of 19. TY for the answer. How can I check for Trade Alliances?

Trade Alliances can be checked in the Factions list.

No indie zones?

Also, note that may be limited Adv Electronics for Cadar but there is no reason not to pick up another friendly faction!

Check out the Temple of Refuge in Farfallen Rim, east 1 south 1 from Dixye Maelstrom. It's an Indie Orbital. Indie systems generally have bad economies but you can certainly get a few units there.
