i fought against the invasion for about 3 times in the sectors: Scale Plate Green, Menelaus Paradise and Getsu Fune... however i noticed that the invasion mission stopped appearing for a long time now... ive played for well over 10 hours (realtime) and still nothing. I noticed it stopped appearing when the

bbs started. also, in Getsu Fune there is an argon centaur (Federation Defense 385 something) that is still there, Idle-ing.

so my question is:
- Are the Xenon invasion missions bugged somehow by the bid or centaur?
i mean, trading has never been my strong point, and without hunting, x3 is pretty boring for me...

many thanks

XI missions come around every 12 hours, so hang in there - they will be back.
**EDIT**
As well you might try your luck in

check stations in all of the xenon sector's neighbors, if it has been 10-12 hours since your last one, it's going to happen at another sector. In my experience, they don't move either until you do it. Currently I have a XI mission waiting in Black Hole Sun since I'm busy building some major complexes and upping trade rank. With my fight rank where it's at now means I'm fighting for well over an hour straight to milk all the fighters out of the J's gets a bit mind numbing :wink:

You only need to check for XIs in the following five sectors:

Eighteen Billion
Black Hole Sun
Thyn's Abyss
Menelaus Paradise
Getsu Fune
So long as it's more than about 12 hours since the last XI started, you WILL find a mission in one of those sectors--chances are you're just not checking the one that actually has the invasion mission in it.
