Congrats this seemed pretty intresting got to watch it today hopefully ill try to make the next Vector battle
This isn't really important, but is there any chance you could wipe all the unactive ships from the rosters? Its kinda... messy with the clone ships. And when will the next Syntax battle be?

After the recent events I have come to realise that the Tetragrammaton are under-represented in an important aspect of the war. I am willing to learn the battlefield regulations but require further clarification. First off, I read the .pdf file you produced on the regulations. The items you suggest are they mandatory or is there a web based board on which a battle takes place?
Secondly, is being a Captain of a hovercraft required? I ask this as I am currently the XO of the November under the command of Captain Smike. I have petitioned Beachhead to either comission a new hovercraft if it is necessary or to allow me access to full command codes of the November for the duration of any battles.
You have nothing to provide. Everything is handled by the coordinator. All you have to do is provide your strategic choices, and make /random rolls when required.
Any crew member can represent their ship. The word captain is used, but battles are not limited only to them.
Zina1 Hovercraft of the titan will be looking Forward to joining in Zions army just Registerd her up.

I will also be at the Sunday battle on Recursion. 5pm MCT would be the most convenient time for me, if that works for all of the other participants.

not sure if ill be able to make it on time we did my brothers b-day dinner probally wont be home for another half n hour figured i post this while i can (( Iphone FTW)) one of these days ill make one lol
I'd like to take that challenge. I can find another couple of machines to take on zion.
Sounds good. Shall we come up with a date and time? I believe Vogt said no battles for two weeks about a week ago. So we have to wait a week or so.
So... when is there gonna be a match on Syntax or am I interupting the Recursion HvCFT Battle Marathon?

The last battle on Syntax was EPN, so shouldn't this one be Zion?
Something needs to be done to even the odds in some way for people on servers who have little to no backup in HvCFT events. I think I'm probably the only Cypherite on my server who even participates in this and because of that - I'm going to level up slower as I'm constantly losing due to fighting higher ranks/more ships. Now EPN has a Rank 2 ship, and I'm pretty much still alone.
Everything except the Capture the Flag scenario looks fine to me. I know of one ship in particular that would almost instantly win Capture the Flag due to high energy, so that's kind of pointless.

I like the ideas with the rules, it does kinda make sense to have to land then repair.

So no. Until we just participate enough for us to lose enough battles to gain a point (and probably give the opponents who already have an advantage an even bigger one in the meantime), we won't have much of a chance.
In the end EPN has shown the most enthusiasm and wins in this section of the game.There is no 'being a beast' at HvCFT battles. In the end, it's a purely numbers game that depends on the luck of that /random 3. During my last fight, we had the strategic highground, and rolls that we would've tied in - we lost because of the opponent having those extra points and consecutive bad luck with repeated rolls of "1".
Yeah, we did kinda throw Gerik at you, so I can see your hate, he is a beast at HvCft Battles. But as Neoteny said, there are more rank 1's out there in EPN, so I can almost assure you Steele myself and Publius will probably be throwing ourselves infront of our ringer Gerik for a bit of time.

If it's such a big deal to you, I guess you shouldn't have let Bayamos in on your side. And, if memory serves, the Cypherite v. Zion battle before that was just a 1v1 with you against Omega, so you've really go no ground to stand on in saying that it's not fair.
Actually, that would have been a 1v1 battle against me, but he didn't show up. In fact, none of the Cypherites showed up to that battle, but Lucadello was there (possibly a coincidence), and he was a Machinist at the time, so it became a 1v1 Machines vs Zion battle. But your point still stands. If he showed up to that battle, the ranks and numbers would have been equal.
It was a 2v2 this time regardless. Bayamos was the only person who offered to help.
ouchies so has this been going on since 330 mct or was there a event that lead up to this
yeah i need to start these again the last few ones i tried to make i seemed to have something come up at the last minute so im hoping the next one i can make it
