Fleeters wanted!
The map is not yet complete. However, in brief this is what it will be like; a rectangle taller than it is wide. For clarity’s sake I’ll refer to North, South, East, West edges on the map. The map will be taller north-south than it is wide east-west.
The Rogue Sith Fleet will start on the western edge of the map, protecting the Omega.
Galactic Alliance and other allies of theirs will enter in the south-east. One Sith and their allies (if any) will enter from the east. Mandalorians and others will enter from the north-east.
The way it is therefore arranged will give both sides the option of attacking both the Rogue Sith and their enemies, though the Omega is closer.
The objectives will be as follows:
I do want this to be an impressive battle, so going to 10,000 metres per major faction writer taking part. I’ll match this amount with ½ to 2/3 of that total in Rogue Sith. Depending on how many people are involved.
I’ll set the usual movement rules: 11 – (speed/2) for new template or 11 – (speed) for those using the old template.
As I’m playing the NPC Rogue Sith they’re going to suffer heavy casualties. That’s all part of the fun.
Please sign up here with your faction (if any).
Some selection notes:
There is no combat system in place for fleeting. Damage is decided by the defending writer. Taking fair hits is strongly suggested however.
I will be using a combat system to fairly allocate damage, but you are not required to follow my lead.
More details will be added in the IC thread. For now, sign up your interest.
You do not need to post your fleets now, though you can if you wish.

The objectives will be as follows:
- Win the battle by destroying more metres of ships than your enemies. This can be both Rogue Sith and enemy Major Factions.
- Break through the Rogue Sith and move ships off that map edge. These metres count double when judging winners.
- Destroy Immortals. It’s a tradition.

Some selection notes:
- Each major faction writer will have 10,000m to select from. Each minor faction writer will have 2,500m to select from. The minor faction ship rules apply as normal. Companies can select 1000m per tier, with maximum individual sizes as normal.
- Escorts (Corvettes & Frigates) must be purchased in groups of 3 or more and stick together in the same hex as squadrons. Different classes can be mixed together in one squadron. This is to reduce the amount of moves which will take place.
- Attack Craft (Interceptors, Fighters & Bombers) do not count for length if they start inside the hangers of a ship. If they are purchased separately they do so at full cost.
- All the Attack Craft from a single vessel must remain in the same hex. Thus, it is a wise idea for your ships to carry compliments which can work together.

So I'll join, I'm really interested in this whole Omega thing anyway. [member="Valiens Nantaris"]
