STFC Alliance Tournaments return in Update 95 with September and October dates

Scopely plans two Alliance Tournament runs for Update 95: September 28 through October 3, and October 9 through October 14, 2026. The second run overlaps Infinite Incursions on October 10.

The first run is preparation for the second

Scopely says both runs use the same tasks. Alliances can therefore use the September event to identify participation patterns, communication gaps and resource pressure before the October return.

Agree on expectations before the event begins. Share the tasks that matter, identify the time zones in which coordination is possible and avoid turning a shared objective into pressure for members who cannot be present throughout the schedule.

Plan the Incursions overlap early

The October 10 overlap can divide ships, repairs and player attention. Alliance leaders should decide which activities complement each other and communicate any priority before timers start. The event is an opportunity to make group play feel organized: clear calls, realistic targets and a fleet that knows where its effort creates the most progress.
