X ship, you may not fly another for 12 hours.
- If you lose the command ship of a Multi-Ship Fleet, you may not fly another Multi-Ship Fleet for 12 hours.

Heavy Iron & X points thread.[/list]
Fleeting Rules:- No capital ships (Multi-Ship Fleet included) are allowed to fly in a mission together. If they happen to by accident, their opponent is allowed to choose which capital ship must disengage, and the disengagement penalty is voided for the disengaging ship.
- CCX/CAX's are treated as Capital ships for Fleeting purposes.
- No
X ships are allowed to fly in a mission together. If they happen to by accident, one of the X ships must decided to immediately disengage, the disengagement penalty is voided for the disengaging ship, but they must stay in the battle in spectator mode till it concludes.
- One CARRIER class type per fleet and a max of 32 ftrs is allowed.[/list]
FF Squadron CnC- A 3 ship fleet of the same race comprised of a Frigate Leader and 2 vanilla FF's may be flown together.
- If a race doesn't have a FF Leader, a vanilla Destroyer may be substituted as the leader.
- An FF Squadron is worth one PvP Point if any two of the three FF's are destroyed.
- Shiploss will be set to 3 so if you lose one of your multi-fleet ships, it will be replaced.
- FF Squadrons may not fleet together with other FF Squadrons.
PF CnC- Full Tenders with 3+ PF’s may carry no more than 1 Leader, and 1 Special PF, the others must be vanilla.

- Each leader may carry 2 dissimilar special PF's and two vanilla PF's.
- PF Flotillas may not fleet with CARRIERS.
- The x-PF(Flt) leader PF acts as a ship, i.e., PlaD will not fire at it and all PF's are destroyed when the PF(Flt) leader is killed. No way around that.
- PF Flotillas are not worth any VC's unless they have a wing in a PvP in which case they are worth 1 PVP point if the PF(Flt) leader is destroyed.
- PF(Flt) Leaders may NEVER recall their PF's once launched.
- All PF(Flt)'s have been given an extra hull and ED to make them a slight bit tougher.

- PvP kills do not apply in Black Hole hexes.[/list]
Map and PvP VC’s - An original enemy planet must be controlled and have a LoS to a friendly HW. You get one
Victory Point for matching an enemy planet with one of a disimilar race. Terraformed planets (if used) and those located in the neutral zone do not count towards VC's.
- If attrition (PvP points) equals or exceeds one and a half times as many more than your enemy you count it as a Planet for purposes of the Map VC's listed above applied toward the specific race that suffered the highest attrition points and if it equals or exceeds twice as many, you count it as another Planet to apply toward the specific race that suffered the second highest attrition points.
- All your empires must have a LoS at least one hex wide at the end of each VC round. If you cut off an enemy race's LoS to their ally, you count it as a Planet for purposes of the Map VC's listed above applied toward that race.
- There will be 3x Map VC periods, one at the end of each week from the time the server started.
- Total points are tallied and the difference is used below to determine the winner.
5 VC Points = Total Victory - The losers are wiped from the face of the Galaxy so completely that there is no trace left of their civilization and eventually even their very existence will be forgotten entirely and no one will remember them. The winners go on to dominate the universe.
4 VC Points = Decisive Victory - Driven to the brink of extinction, the surviving losers scatter throughout the galaxy vowing to one day seek revenge while their conquerers plunder and desecrate their lands and homeworlds that were left behind.
3 VC Points = Major Victory - The victors conquer considerable enemy territory and subjugate and enslave countless millions while the losers are left devestated both economically and militarily wondering how long their shaky future will last.
2 VC Points = Minor Voctory - The victors, unable to deliver a knock-out blow and capitalize on their many advantages despite solid gains in territory and ships, leave the losers able to pick up the pieces and possibly threaten them again in the not so distant future.
1 VC Point = Tactical Victory - After an exhausting war, the victors take comfort in knowing they have bragging rights for edging their enemy in economic and military might leaving the quadrant ripe for another general war ready to break out at any moment.[/list]
Bounties! -This is left to the RM's to devise, implement and track.
Bases- Base Stations are indestructible and act only as resupply and shipyard docks. There will be no Base Station missions offered. These hexes will draw only patrols.
- Battle Stations and Starbases may be placed in any friendly hex with a LoS to a friendly planet but may not be placed adjacent to another base.
Deepstrikes- If you draft or are drafted into a PvP in a hex that has no Allied or Neutral hexes adjacent to it at the time of the draft, then you may not disengage and must fight to the death.
- Even if your ship is a .5 or less move class ship, if caught deepstriking you are worth 1 VC.
- The Ring area mosh pit thing is exempt from Deepstrikes. So you can deepstrike there all ya want to and you're safe.
Disengagement/Destruction Rule- If you are forced to Disengage in a PvP match, then you are banned from the hex you either took the mission in or were drafted in and all the hexes adjacent to that one for
15 turns. If your ship was destroyed then you are banned from that hex and all adjacent hexes for
8 turns.
- If you draft or are drafted while moving out of an area you have been banned in, the mission is to be played out normally, but any outcome for purposes of disengagement/destruction is voided and the banned time from the previous mission and hex doesnt begin until the current mission concludes.
- Black Hole hexes are free hexes and the Disengagement/Destruction doesn't apply to these hexes.
- One turn is 4 minutes.[/list]
General Rules- If you are in a PvP and die, stay there in the battle till the match is over.
- If a mission causes all players to drop, then all those players must attempt to log back on and retry the mission at least once allowing the slower connection to draft. If this player is known to cause drops or lags, this player must not be on the front lines drafting, being drafted and causing connection issues. It isnt fair to anyone else. They need to do missions elsewhere. See this link:
Make sure your Firewall is OFF!- If the server goes down and players are still in a mission, it still counts. Once the server comes back up, the losing team at the request of the winning team is obliged to be drafted and disengage to properly reflect the DV change on the map if possible.
- During some missions, a player's name may not be indicated on their ship. If you suspect you are playing against a human, type a greeting in the chat. All other human players are required to immediately respond with a text chat greeting and identify the ship they are in.
- If you disengage or are destroyed in a game and there are others still fighting, you may not leave the game until the match is finished.
- All other rules, same as past servers.[/list]
Wild Geese- Wild Geese chosen by the admin will start off with the side of their choosing (or be chosen by the admin to join a certain side at the start) and every three days, the Geese switch to the side that is losing by
x or more original space hexes. Repeat every three days. It is automatic and no one other than this rule affects their deployment.[/list]
Forfeiting Missions:NEVER allowed to forfeit a mission under
ANY circumstances on the map during a mission draft or a mandatory mission choice. This causes
SERIOUS errors in the database and leads to CPU overload and eventual server burps.
- If you are drafted you
MUST accept the mission. You are
NOT ALLOWED to logoff or
FORFEIT.
EVER- If you find that your navigator is incompetant and has wandered into an enemy hex and you recieve a mandatory mission, you may logoff and relog on as long as you do not do this repeatedly. You are
NOT ALLOWED to FORFEIT a mission.
- Rarely a player will become ghosted in a hex. If need be the server can be rebooted to unghost the player at the discretion of the admins.
-
DO NOT park your ship anywhere near the front lines and go AFK. You will cause forfeits this way. Park your ship away from the front in an empty hex. Better yet, just logoff the server till you come back as you may take up a player slot.
