TE Rules

DECLARING A TE:


-A base may be captured by a faction/group/ or individuals players.

-When declaring capturing with either via TT or Capship, the declaration MUST be done in a OOC statement. Must include the specifics faction/group/person the base is being captured for.

- Factions take turns declaring TEs on up to 2 bases within 1 system, at 2 TE per week.

- The declaration of a TE must be at least 4 days ( 96 hours ) prior to the time declared, and Targets need to be called at least 48 hours in advance.

- Should a Faction not declare in time, the next one in line can declare one, and must do so within 2 days ( 48 hours ) of the time declared.

- Types of TEs a faction may call: Assault TE (Other types may be introduced at a later date)

- All TE declarations must be called in GMT format, for easier calculation for the whole server.

- The TE can be called for any time of the day.

- TE can be called early but not until the previous TE has ended.


Rotation/Target System:



TE Rotation Two factions a Weekend:
New Republic- Galactic Empire-*First call, first choice on day*


- Factions can auction off their turn in the TE rotation.

- Assault TEs will be divided into 2 categories, Attack/Defense and Civ.

- Any Assault TE can be called on up to 2 bases in any 1 system at a time.

- If one base is owned, and one is civ, then revert to the rules for attack/defense TE's.

- In an Assault TE, If the attacking faction has chosen to attack one base, they have 60 minutes from the beginning of the TE start time to win the base.

- In an Assault TE, If the attacking faction has chosen to attack two bases, they have 120 minutes from the beginning of the TE start time to win the bases.

- All factions/groups/Civilians can attend any Type of TE, Motives, politics, and reasoning is up to the factions and is not policed by SP/Admin.


Assault TE Gameplay Rules:



- Plans for any type of TE are for the faction leaders to come up with. Do whatever you must (within the Server/TE Rules) to win.

- You may only re-spawn When the SP says SPAWN. The time is every 15 mins from start of TE. You must still wait for the call whether its late or early.


- Attackers and Defenders may NOT respawn in the target system. They must select, before the TE starts, a base to respawn from and tell the SPs of the TE which bases they will be respawning from.

- Defenders may start at their bases however their respawn must be out of system, unless they only have bases with in that system.

- All players may only land for repair and re-arm on allied or friendly bases. There is no limit to how many times any ship may repair/re-arm. When you die, you must get a beam back to your respawn location. YOU will need to tell the SP and wait for the beam. DO NOT FLY THERE ON YOUR OWN.

- No player may switch characters during a TE. It is simply too difficult to keep track of. *TT are the only exception to this run and only coming out of a TT char. *See TT rules*

- No player may acquire a new ship once the TE has started, you must stay in the one you have until the TE is over.
Recapturing a base is allowed, however, each side may only recapture once per TE. Example: - The Imperials captures Golan Arms, the new republic then recaptures Golan Arms, The Imperials then capture the Wavefront, the new republic are then not able to recapture again. However, the Imperials can recapture Golan Arms.

- Diplomacy and Politics are NOT policed by SPs/Admins. These actions (examples - arranging a closer starting base, supporting forces, repair/re-arm bases, use of capital ship moor, etc.) are part of the Roleplay, part of the Strategy, and part of the FUN.

- No faction may change its relations (to any other faction) within 24 hours of a declared TE.

- Factions may not use game exploits such as hiding inside a model or other things such as that.



Capturing Rules:




Capturing via capital ship:

- An Escort class capital or greater must sit, uncontested, for 15 minutes, in order to capture a base. Any opponent can "contest" the capture by engaging the capturing vessel. The capturing vessel, must be engaged to count as contesting. (Example: Bombers magging or shooting the shields consistently with ions, is considered contested. A fighter shooting it, does not. It is up to the SP to decide when the capship is no longer Contested. A minimum shield recharge of 50% is required to resume the counter.

- Factions are allowed to capture a base for any faction.

- Mercenary faction types are allowed to capture bases for their employing faction. OR for themselves.

- Only the main dock point at any base/planet may be used to "capture" by capital . (No skyhooks or capital moors) (In the event a planet has 2 docks I.E. Naboo - Theed/Otah Gunga the point of "capture" will be declared by faction attempting to "capture" during their announcement of TE.)

Capturing via Troop Transports:

- You may capture a base using Transports of 700 Cargo or less. A total of 2100 is required to cap a base. You must declare to an SP if you are TTing.

- TT Must start from the home system and use a commodity that's sold on your Home Planet.

- You must dock with said transport. A TT pilot must declare in system chat that he has docked. The SP will then have you un-dock and verify that you have the commodities. At which point you drop the cargo and the SP will beam you back to your home base

- Only the main dock point at any base/planet may be used to "capture" by TT. (No skyhooks or capital moors) (In the event a planet has 2 docks I.E. Naboo - Theed/Otah Gunga)

- Those who are in a Troop Transport in a TE may switch out to another char. ONCE. You may not switch into a TT char and the char you are switching into must be checked by an Server Police BEFORE the TE starts.

- When a faction caps a base ALL previously landed Troops are removed and must be re-landed.


VICTORY CONDITIONS:

- A SP/Admin Char will count the minutes and give updates on who's capturing bases.

Attacking Factions:

- In order to capture a base, the attacking faction may sit a capital ship (Escort or above) for 15 minutes, within 2km, uncontested by other enemy ships, at the main dock of a target base/planet.

- Or capture With TT's

Defending Factions:

- The defending faction must prevent the above condition for 60 or 120 minutes.

Neutral Bases/Planets TEs

- A faction may sit a capital ship (Escort or above) for 15 minutes or capture via TTs



Hired Pirates/Mercs:



- All Pirate Bids must be done in the open.

- Any and All bidding closes 24 hours prior to the TE.

- All public contracts are rule enforced, meaning you can not cancel or break the contract after the 24 hour deadline. There is no rule, however, saying that you must attend, Or that you cannot attack your employers.

- Factions can NOT hire Pirates if they have said Pirates listed as hostile.
