- Black Hole hexes exempt players from the Disengage Rule, ship VC's and any ship loss penalties except prestige loss. Just have fun in these hexes.
Mosh Pit (center of the map):- Mosh pit is located in the middle of the map between Fed and Klink space.
- It is considered hazardous space and limited to single non
X ships with .67 or less move cost or an FF/PF Squadron which counts as a single .67 ship.

- Dreadnoughts are limited to 3 per side at one time and no more than 1 of the three may be a heavy carrier dread.
- The B10K counts as one regular and one heavy carrier Dread.
Multi-Ship Fleet Rules for players wanting to fly two or more ships in a fleet:- A command variant no larger than CCH class may lead a second regular line ship (vanilla) of the same race as long as the second ship's move cost is less than that of the command ship.
- Fed CS and CS+ ships may not be used in any multiship fleet combination.

- No X ships are allowed to fly together.
- Fast Cruisers are treated as Capital ships.

Keep What You Capture.- If you captured an enemy ship, you get to fly it... if of course your RM doesnt confiscate it and fly it himself.
- Captured ships have to follow standard fleet and cnc restrictions.
Legendary Crews.Captains who manage 15 confirmed live players kills in the same type ship as described below without dying will be awarded a Legendary Crew with these restrictions:
Kills must be made in a Command Heavy Cruiser or Heavy Cruiser Line type ship using the same account name.
Legendary Crewed ships are upgraded according to their ship path and carry over to the X era. Contact your SC for a refit when available for assignment.
If a Legendary ship is lost in battle, it is gone, period.
If it is lost due to mission bugs or anomaly, contact your SC and appropriate actions may be taken.
Kills made with live allies will be split evenly among all captains. ie; 1/3 or 1/2 of a kill.
Legendary Crewed non X-ships do not count as a capital or specialty ship for fleeting purposes.
Legendary Crewed X-ships do count toward X-ship CnC.
Legendary Crewed ships are NOT transferable to another player.
Legendary Crews may not switch to another ship or race.
Kills are counted separate for each race also.
ie; If DH kills 10 in an F-CC+ and 5 in and H-LB, he's still short 5 kills in his Fed account.
On the same token, the count will not get reset if you die in another ship or as another race.
ie; If Dib kills 14 in a K-D7C then dies while flying a K-D5D or a Rom ship, he's only 1 kill away from having a Legendary Klingon Crew in the D7C.
Benefits of a legendary crew:
Increased turn mode and +1 HET for the Legendary Navigator.
2 extra Labs for the Legendary Science Officer.
4 more APR power and +5 spares for the Legendary Engineer.
5 extra marines for Legendary Marine officer.
Complete lists of the legendary ships can be obtained by your SC.
Only
TWO Legendary Crewed ships may be earned by each side during the course of the campaign, not including the ones piloted by the Supreme Commanders.[/list]
Da Penalty Box- If you lose one of the following ship types, you personally may not fly any of these again for 12 hours. This applies to all of a person’s multiple accounts. They are: Any CCX/CAX type X ship, BB, DN, CVA, BC/H/T/V's or similar.
- If you lose an
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.
- In addition, your side's Heavy Iron or X points will be deducted by however many points your ship cost for 12 hours. Time will be kept track of using stardates, 12 hours is 182 turns on this thread:
Capital Ships & X points thread. (This rule not used on SG7)[/list]
FF Squadrons CnC- A 3 ship fleet of the same race comprised of a Frigate Leader, one special and 1 vanilla FF 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. (hopefully)
- FF Squadrons may not fleet together with other FF Squadrons or a player with a multi-ship fleet.
PF CnC- Full Tenders with 3+ PF’s may carry no more than 1 Leader, and 1 Special PF, the others must be vanilla.
- Players using Casual Tenders with only 2 PF’s may recover but not re-launch them and the PF's must be vanilla.
- Hydran Heavy Stinger fighters (
H-St-S(heavy), H-St-T(Heavy), H-ST-Tm(Heavy) are substituted for PFs.
- Hydran ships designated with an 'h' are allowed 2, but the OM and IDh are allowed 4.[/list]
PF Flotillas- All races except Hydran have PF Flotillas.
- Designations of x-PF(Flt) identify it as the flight leader.
- 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.
Fighter CnCFederation- F-14 ftrs, if deployed, are limited to use only on the F-BCV, F-DVL, and F-CVA (2 squads max).
- F-14 and F-15 ftrs, if deployed, are limited to use only on the F-CVS and F-BB.
- These fighters are model represented and distinguishable from regular Fed ftrs, courtesy of Thu11s.
Hydrans- H-St-X are only allowed on X ships.
*Note* SFB Fighters with PlaD were converted to PhoF, "plasma mini-bolts", and a Ph3 360`.[/list] [/list]
PvP Kills: (PvP Points)PvP (Player vs. Player) Points when you kill enemy players. Report kills here:

6 (1 move cost)All other CCX/CAX

N/CA, N/CL, HDW's are worth
1.
(.67 and 1 move cost)Smaller class types with 8 ftrs or 3+ PF's are worth
1.
Ships with a move cost of .5 or less are exempt unless they are involved in a fleet action with a live player wing, or used in a Multi-Ship Fleet, or deep striking in which case they are worth
1.
PF Flotillas are exempt unless they are involved in a fleet action with a wing in which case they are worth
1 only if the PF-(Flt) Leader is destroyed.
FF Squadrons are worth
1 if any two of the three FF's are destroyed.
- PvP kills do not apply in Black Hole hexes.
Line Ship Addition:
- A line ship(s) is exempted from the disengagement penalty unless opposed by another line ship(s).
- A line ship is worth no points if faced on a 1v1 by a BCH or larger ship.[/list]
Map VC's and PvP Points - 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.
- There is a 3 DV Homeworld in the center of the Mosh Pit. It is worth 10 PvP Kill Points if held at the end of a VC Round. EDIT: Exact Location: Very Center of Mosh Pit at xx,yy.
- There will be 3x Map VC periods, one at the end of each week on Sunday night.
- 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]
Bases- Base Stations are indestructible and act only as resupply and shipyard docks. 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 PvP Point.
- The Ring area mosh pit thing and adjacent hexes are 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]
Wild Geese and server resets- Wild Geese will be deployed at whim by the admin and the server will be put on hold in case of a blowout.
Forfeiting Missions:Do to unfinished game code we suffer from the following issues and I would like everyone to follow the following protocol otherwise, these issues may causes
SERIOUS errors in the database and lead to CPU overload and eventual server burps:
- You are
NEVER allowed to forfeit a mission under
ANY circumstances on the map during a mission draft or a mandatory mission choice.
- If you are drafted you
MUST accept the mission. You are
NOT ALLOWED to logoff or
FORFEIT.
EVER.- If 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.
-
DO NOT park your ship anywhere near the front lines and go AFK. You will cause forfeits this way. Logoff the server till you come back as you may take up a player slot.
-
Do not EVER ALT-F4 out of a bugged mission. In case of a buggy mission, the attacker must fly off the map and then ESC FORFEIT in battle to get it to close. Occasionally the defender may also need to exit the map and ESC Forfeit in battle. The attacker is defined by the side that is in a hex controlled by the enemy at the time of the draft. The defender is defined as the side that is in their own home space at the time of the draft.[/list]
