Military Campaigns: the empire campaigns on the EVE Online map
Military Campaigns follows the Fractured Skies campaigns of EVE Online on EO-Map's interactive map of New Eden. Four empires run one campaign each, in two rivalries: Amarr against Minmatar, and Caldari against Gallente. Each campaign has four objectives, and every objective right now is a delivery made at that empire's HQ station. The window shows how far each objective has got, who has delivered to it, the bonus it unlocks and where its item comes from, and the map paints the area where you can earn that item. It is free, it runs in your browser, and there is nothing to install.
Desktop only. The Military Campaigns window and the Campaigns map layer are on desktop browsers. The phone layout has no Military Campaigns tool.
What the window shows
One tab per rivalry
Amarr against Minmatar on one tab, Caldari against Gallente on the other, with a card for each campaign: its name, its empire, how many of its four objectives are done, and the HQ system in its security colour with its region. Click the HQ to select it on the map.
Progress against the target
Each objective's percentage is the amount delivered so far divided by the target CCP set for it in the game's static data, so 100% means done. Under 1% it shows two decimals, so early progress reads as it really is, however small. It is never rounded up to 100% before the goal is met.
Pilots who delivered
The pilot count is the number of pilots who have actually delivered something to that objective, which ESI calls contributors. Pilots who joined but have not delivered are not counted. A progress bar under each objective gets a small nub as soon as anything has arrived.
Bonus and where to earn it
Under each objective is the system-wide bonus it unlocks, as CCP's campaign text gives it, then where the item comes from, then a Map chip. Objectives whose items cannot be placed on the map say not mapped instead.
Where each item can be earned
The Map chip paints an area where an item can be found, never a live site. ESI does not publish where sites spawn, so nothing on EO-Map can show where one is right now. There are four kinds of item:
- Strategic Intel drops from NPCs at Faction Warfare complexes in systems the rival militia holds. The chip paints the systems the rival empire occupies, from EO-Map's current Faction Warfare occupancy data.
- Aberrant ores come from the X-grade ore in that empire's Bulwark systems. The chip paints those systems. EO-Map's Bulwark lists come from the previous season's campaign data, so treat them as the area to look in, not a promise.
- Drifter and Rogue items come from Collapsed Drifter Caches, and the Gallente item from Rogue Fabricated Caches, both best found in Class 1 to 3 wormhole space. The chip paints C1 to C3 systems.
- Prototypes come from Ambushed Expedition sites. Where those appear is not published anywhere, so these objectives say not mapped.
One objective is painted at a time, its chip reads On map, and the Military Campaigns layer comes on with it. A caption at the bottom of the map names the area and the nearest painted system to the HQ, with how many jumps that is. Wormhole space has no gate route to an HQ, so for C1 to C3 systems the caption says they are reached through wormholes, not gates, and offers the WH view when you are not in it. The chip never moves the map, selects a system or plans a route by itself: press Route on the caption to plan one from that system to the HQ. Press the chip again, press Clear from map on the caption, or switch the layer off, and the paint clears. Minimising the window leaves it painted, and so does closing it when you switched the layer on under Layers. A window that switched the layer on itself switches it off as it closes, and the paint goes with it.
The campaigns on the map
The Military Campaigns layer marks each of the four HQ systems with a ring in the empire's colour, split into four segments that fill with each objective's progress, and a tag with the HQ's name, its empire and the campaign's average progress. With the layer on, rest the pointer on an HQ star and its hover card grows a Military campaign section: the campaign's name, its rival, how many objectives are done, the four objectives with their progress and pilots, and the station where deliveries are made.
The layer is off by default. Opening the window switches it on and closing the window switches it off again, the same as the other map layers with a window. You can also switch it on or off yourself under Layers at the bottom left of the map, where its › opens the window; a layer you switched on there stays on when the window closes. Two buttons on each campaign card help you get there: Route to HQ plans a route to the HQ from your reported location when My Location is on, otherwise from the system you have selected, and Show on map selects the HQ, flies the map to it and switches the layer on.
Where the numbers come from
The progress and pilot figures are EVE Online's official ESI military campaign data, which EO-Map's own collector reads once an hour and publishes as a snapshot. The targets, the objective names, the bonuses and where each item comes from are in CCP's official static data (the SDE), which EO-Map pins. Your browser reads EO-Map's copy and never calls ESI for any of it.
The line under the tabs says how many campaigns and objectives are running and when the numbers were last updated, in UTC. When that update is more than three hours old it says stale, and cached means the latest refresh failed and you are seeing the last copy that loaded. A campaign newer than EO-Map's game data, such as a new season that starts before the next data update, says so on its card; its name, goals and bonuses arrive with that update.
How to open it
- Open EO-Map in a desktop browser and click Military Campaigns in the left rail, or open the Tools Library and pick it on the Conflict tab, or use the link below.
- Pick a rivalry tab and read each campaign's objectives.
- Press Map on an objective to paint where its item can be earned, then Route on the caption, or Route to HQ on the card, to plan the trip.
Military Campaigns took the place in the left rail where Force Projection used to be. Force Projection is still in the Tools Library on the Navigation tab, in the Ctrl+K command palette and at its own link, and you can pin it back to the rail from there.
Part of EO-Map
Military Campaigns is one window of EO-Map's interactive 3D map of New Eden. The same session shows the Faction Warfare front, live kills and system activity, so the area you are about to fly into can be read before you undock.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a map of the EVE Online Military Campaigns?
Yes. EO-Map's Military Campaigns window follows the four empire campaigns, Amarr against Minmatar and Caldari against Gallente, with each objective's progress, pilots and bonus. Its Military Campaigns layer marks the four HQs on the map, and each objective's Map chip paints the area where its item can be earned.
How is a campaign objective's percentage worked out?
It is the amount delivered so far, from EVE Online's official ESI data, divided by the target CCP set for that objective in the game's static data. Under 1% it shows two decimals, and it is never rounded up to 100% before the goal is met. The pilot count is only the pilots who have delivered.
Does EO-Map show where campaign sites spawn?
No. ESI does not publish where sites spawn, so the map paints areas instead: systems the rival militia holds for Strategic Intel, the empire's Bulwark systems for Aberrant ores, and C1 to C3 wormhole space for Drifter and Rogue items. Prototypes from Ambushed Expedition sites are not mapped.
How often do the Military Campaigns numbers update?
About once an hour. EO-Map's own collector reads the official ESI data on that schedule, and the window says when the numbers were last updated, in UTC. It says stale when that is more than three hours ago. It is not live to the minute.
Can I follow the Military Campaigns on my phone?
No. The Military Campaigns window and the Campaigns map layer are desktop only, and the phone layout has no Military Campaigns tool. Open EO-Map in a desktop browser to use them.
