Happy Fathers Day - Pre 4.86 Round Two

[Agmen of Eladesor]

The weekend beginning June 18th will be when this event occurs. Please remember that I am on US EST (GMT -4) so just because it's your weekend doesn't mean it's MY weekend yet. Be patient - you'll be able to get your pew on.

I am planning on using the same server shortcut as before, so that way you won't have to change anything in your shortcut file presuming you left it alone. That being said, I will probably actually start the event server up sometime THIS weekend for final testing, on a password protected basis, so don't freak out if you see it out there.

I'm also tempted to leave it password protected for the event, but we'll figure that out a bit closer to the starting time.

Camera ships will be available at no cost as a regular restart. Right now they will start at Dabadoru.

Because of the extra workload we've had these past couple of weeks, we've not gotten anything modified to lock the jumpgates / jumpholes and/or stations. So you'll be able to go wandering to modify your loadouts as you wish, but... (If we can get Isis turned off and Toledo closed, we will. It SHOULD be a simple code change - which is one reason we'll have the test server up and running early, to try those things out.)

Combat is restricted to Omicron Minor / Omicron Lost and the area between the Minor / Lost jumpholes in Delta. No Order raids on Daba or Nomad territory. No BHG raids into Nomad territory or past Minor.

The 'script' behind this event is pretty simple. The BHG|Core has amassed a fleet to overwhelm and kick the Order out of Minor. They're supposed to succeed in this. And then a complication sets in - one that's blue.

There are things that are being set-up that will occur that will NOT be announced here, so ... enjoy them when they pop up.

Ships and ship loadouts have been discussed and arranged with discussion from the official faction leadership of the factions involved. There will be some monies available on each ship to change your loadout a bit or to purchase some additional regens. The /givecash and /drawcash commands will be disabled for this event.

Any constructive questions or comments, please post them here. Thanks!
