Edit: Thirty-five holdouts have been forcibly converted. Thank you for your cooperation.

Coastas edit: Factions page has also had a modular glow up. Enjoy!

When this started, we had approximately 383 factions. The current count stands at 142 Modular Factions and 66 old types. I'll do the math for you: that's a total of 208. Which means 175 shells have fallen.

Anyway, to the holdouts, this is the beginning of the end. As a reminder, factions will receive applicable modules at no cost, in the following priority:
 - Core module
 - Equivalent of current type(eg. Mercenary -> Paramilitary module)
 - Planetary Control module, if planets are controlled at the time of conversion. Asteroid field planetoids are exempt and will not obtain nor require this module.
 - Datacard module, if generic datacards are owned

You will receive those modules even if you do not have enough members. However, this will immediately deactivate modules starting with the lowest priority module and a 14-day timer for those modules' removal. Certain functions are disabled during inactive status.

So here's what going to happen. On D155, you will be converted to modular. 
 - If you are one member, all your modules will be inactive and your faction will dissolve after 14 days(D169). 
 - If you have two members, the core faction module will survive but all other modules will deactivate and disappear after these 14 days.
 - If you have three members, the faction will retain its type-equivalent module and lose any others as above. 
 - If you have four members, your planets are safe but your datacards are at risk. Alternatively, your datacards are safe.
 - If you have five or more members, you'll be fine.
