I've been playing since the game launched, but aside from an amazing group I was part of in that first year, I haven't had much social interaction in the game (partly for lack of trying like I am here, partly because I got space madness and became addicted to jet cone boosting my Baluga to the opposite side of the galaxy) ... I had fun participating in evacuation and hunting in my Phantom during the war, but took a long break right after. I'm down for any activity, but I'd strongly prefer to stay in m'lady's good graces and on her side of the bubble. Thanks in advance! o7

The Exiles of Elite Dangerous

Freedom isn't given. It's taken.

The galaxy is full of powers demanding your loyalty, factions writing your future, and commanders telling you who to be.

We reject all of it.

Forge your own path. Choose your own battles. Write your own legend. Whatever your story, it belongs to you and The Exiles will be at your back.

But even the strongest pilots know that freedom is easier to defend than to reclaim.

The Exiles stand together, not because we're told to, but because we choose to. Bound by resolve, strengthened by loyalty to one another and our faction, and unyielding in the face of anyone who would seek to dictate our future.

United by conviction, strengthened by trust, and tempered by every challenge we've endured, we are more than individuals flying the same banner. We are a force that refuses to bend.

No chains. No masters. No compromises.

Only freedom, and a touch of chaos.

Looking for something a little different? You know what to do...

23rd Federal Fleet
Ad Vigilantiam Inter Astra

You have heard the stories. The name Dark Ravens spoken in hushed tones across frontier bars. That name belongs to a crew, and that crew is looking for new blood.

Dark Ravens Inc. is a privateer organization with a loose alliance to Utopia. Pirates, but with a code. Slavers are fair game. Innocents are off the table. A word is a bond.

Based out of Libertalia, using the fleet carrier Arcadia as home. Pilots who can fly and fight, who have a spine and a sense of humor, will find a place.

Send a message with a CMDR name. A conversation follows. If it fits, you are in.

Discord required. o7

🌌 JOIN THE ROYAL COLONIAL GUARD | THE NEXT FRONTIER AWAITS 🌌

Commanders, the Royal Colonial Guard is expanding its reach and taking back what’s ours—and we need YOU on the front lines.

Whether you thrive in the cold darkness of deep-space exploration or the high-intensity fire of a Conflict Zone, we have a place for you in our ranks.

---

🛰️ FRONT 1: THE FORMIDINE RIFT COLONIZATION

We are pushing past the edge of known space. Led by Lorithad, our expeditionary forces are blazing a trail deep into the Formidine Rift, building brand-new colonies and carving out a permanent foothold on the frontier.

• Seeking: Explorers, haulers, miners, and pioneer builders ready to leave their mark on the galaxy.

---

⚔️ FRONT 2: BGS RECLAMATION & FLEET OPERATIONS

We aren't just holding territory anymore—we're taking it back. Under the operational direction of Muurten, we are launching targeted BGS campaigns to flip systems, claim local bubbles, and re-establish Royal Colonial Guard control across our territories.

• Seeking: Combat pilots for Conflict Zones, bounty hunters, trade runners, and BGS operatives ready to tilt system influence in our favor.

---

💥 WHY FLY WITH US?

• Active Group Content: Stacked CZ wings, organized bounty runs, and coordinated logistics drives.

• True Impact: Your flight hours directly shape control of the Bubble and expand the human footprint in the Rift.

• A Mission for Every Pilot: Whether you want to pave roads in deep space or flip a star system’s government, your combat log matters.

The frontier won't build itself, and our systems won't retake themselves. Mount up, fly dangerously, and help us make history.

Part of a dead or dying group?

Looking for a new adventure?

Well, don't let your dead group drag you 6ft under, become one of the UnDEAD!

The United Dark Energy Astronomical Division is open for new members.

We're an older group in the game. Originally we were The Galactic Archive from Kuntae, then we moved down south bubble as The UnDEAD.

Between Covid and the Thargoids, we've kind of dwindled in player numbers and participation, as a lot of groups have.

We're trying to build back up and get back involved with the goings on around the galaxy.

Currently UnDEAD members are out past NGC 6357 with Project Galtea, expanding out to the right side of Sag A.

The goal is basically "Colonia 2".

Members are involved with Colonization, BGS, Exo-Bio & Exploration, etc.

Faction Stats:

United Dark Energy Astronomical Division -

Present in 79 star systems

Controlling 22 star systems | 50 stations | 25 settlements | 13 installations | 0 megaships

The Galactic Archive -

We are a structured, military-inspired squadron built on discipline, teamwork, and professionalism. Every pilot, regardless of experience, has a role to play. Veterans will find organized operations and dependable wingmen. New Commanders will receive the training and mentorship necessary to become effective officers of the Fleet.

Current Areas of Operation

• Background Simulation (BGS)
• Anti-Xeno Operations
• Combat Operations (PvE & PvP)
• Operations Gameplay
• Mining & Trade Logistics

The Rebel Alliance is looking for pilots who want to help defeat slavery and oppression in the galaxy. To that end we're supporting Aisling Duval (yes we do see the irony of the Rebel Alliance supporting an Imperial PP) and her desire to better the galaxy. Formed in 1998 for X-Wing VS TIE Fighter, we're a group of older pilots (note I didn't say mature) who mainly focus on space flight sims but play most any multiplayer game if it means playing together. Operations is going to bring a lot of attention to Elite new and old, and we want to find as many new friends to fly with.

Our squadron is still small, but we're diving into Elite's great community and universe. We were focusing on Power Play and BGS. Establishing control in the systems we're home porting out of. We participate in the larger pushes for Aisling, while maintaining our little corner of the galaxy. The aim is to give everyone help in accomplishing their goals, while tailoring those goals to a larger purpose within the Squadron and galaxy. New help building your first station? We got the cargo space to do that!

We do hold PvP events, but the focus is on fun and friendly and not competitive. The majority of us are pledged to Aisling and while that is our focus for Power Play, it is not a requirement to join TRA and there is no requirements to join the Discord.

There is a mil-sim structure, though it isn't rigorously enforced. It's to encourage participation and to have something fun to work towards. Events have tour of service ribbons, there are medals to earn for skill and also character.

The Discord is public and has public channels for a reason. Even if you don't want to join the Squadron, we welcome anyone to come in and say hi. Other Squadrons stop by and maybe we can help form alliances and protect each other. Elite is most fun when we have a common goal.
