Rules Update Junctions

A new rules set has been added for the site; Junctions.

Link here: https://www.starwarsrp.net/ams/faction-war.2911/?article_page=22

JUNCTIONS

Junction threads allow two or more Major Factions participating to gain a hex.

  • At any point, two or more Major Factions may acquire an adjacent SWRP Chaos Map hex each by completing a Junction thread, posting to the Map Update thread, and receiving Staff approval. These factions need not be adjacent on the map to create a Junction.
  • A Junction thread’s title must include the name(s) or acronym(s) of the Major Factions involved as well as the hexes chosen.
  • Major Faction may only submit one completed Junction every calendar month.
  • Hexes chosen to be gained by completed Junction threads must be adjacent to the respective Major Faction(s)' influence cloud.
  • A hex lost as the result of an invasion or rebellion defeat may not be gained by a Junction thread for 30 days after the announcement of the Invasion or Rebellion result.



REBELLIONS
  • Hexes gained via Junctions are vulnerable to Rebellions.
  • All Major Factions present in the Junction may join the Rebellion that targets it.



VICTORY CONDITIONS

Once a Major Faction has posted a completed Junction thread to the Map Update thread, an Admin will assign an RPJ to judge whether the thread meets the following criteria. The RPJ will sign the ‘Approval’ field in the Map Update template, or will contact the submitter if further work is needed.

  • STORY - Does the Junction thread have a story (or group of stories) that makes sense and that comes to a reasonable conclusion?
  • REPRESENTATION - How well is the Faction represented in the Junction thread? Factions may be denied hexes for poor performance.
  • EFFORT - How much effort has the Faction put into the thread? As a general guideline, 50 average posts per faction is an acceptable effort. A lower number of posts may be acceptable if clear effort has resulted in solid stories that reach a natural conclusion. Spammed posts with minimal effort will count against the Faction.



Each faction must post their own application in the Map Update thread upon conclusion of their monthly Junction thread, ie one Junction thread can have two or more posts in the Map Update thread.

JUNCTION

Hex Gained: (Please specify exact Hex coordinate)
Name Of The Faction: (Fully name the Faction correctly)
Link To Junction: (Insert Junction Thread URL)
RPJ Approval: (Leave this blank, an RPJ shall insert their name when it has been approved)

This rule set is now active and can be used from now.

Great to see Junctions have arrived!

Note these hexes only need be adjacent with that faction, but the factions do not need to be adjacent. So you could have a junction between Bryn and EE, they'd each gain a single hex attached to their respective clouds.

Do the participating factions have leeway on where the stories take place, then? Can they be in just one of those named hexes, or do the stories have to explicitly take place in all the hexes being junctioned? Can they take place in an uninvolved, neutral hex (since, using your example, Bryn and EE are pretty far away from each other and might want to meet somewhere in the middle)?
