Good news.

We have got use of the Event Server for this. This means no waiting to try to get into server, no lag etc.

I am setting up /restart commands now. (ie /restart KNFBB, /restart BAFVHF, etc)

-GRN will start at Reunion Station in Orkney
-BAF will start at Kirkwall Base in Orkney
-KNF will start at Dounby Station in Orkney
(These Orkney starting locations make no RP sense, but are just convenient.)

-CR will start at Java Station in Tau 23 (Fighters for later stages of the event)


You can start setting up characters later this week; I am still tweaking the /restarts.

Use the same character names as your characters here. Although the loadout will be different from your original character, no avoiding that.

Remember to add -sdiscoevent.game-host.org:2302 to the target on your Freelancer.exe shortcut in order to see the event server.

Please not that this is an RP Event, not primarily a PVP Event. It is meant to represent what happens in the initial stages of the thrust by GRN out of Gallia.

This is a Fighters vs Fighters, Capital Ships vs Capital Ships event. No bombers. This makes it possible to have extended play for all Capital ships. Also, System Chat talk will be restricted to RP by faction leaders. OOC looks lousy on film.

The following is a brief description of how this will go. I will be there to direct the RP and play.

1. A Bretonian Spy is killed (I wil play him) when he discovers the GRN Fleet massing in Orkney. (He's in an Arrow, won't take long)

2. GRN lures small KNF and BAF Fleets to Orkney with separate false distress signals from allied traders. In so doing, they set up KNF and BAF to fight, while GRN waits to pick up the pieces.

3. After some of the BAF and KNF forces kill each other, there will be a short RP by GRN, BAF, KNF leaders prior to the main GRN attack.

4. GRN attacks, and the BAF and KNF fleets attempt a combined defense.

5. At the appropriate time, there is the arrrival of the second wave of GRN, which are second characters created by anyone who has died in the first battles.

6. BAF and KNF fall back to Taus. My HMS Regina is destroyed in rearguard action. Any BAF who wish to die gloriously (and in so doing, kill their characters:)) are welcome to join me and the old Lord Admiral in glory. (My Fleet Admiral will be safely back in New London)

7. At this point the CR want to show up to assist in that rearguard action as well (fighters only) since the GRN is also going to drive them out of the Taus.

More information as it becomes available.

Any comments or concerns?

Like this:

Remember to add -sdiscoevent.game-host.org:2302 to the target on your Freelancer.exe shortcut in order to see the event server.

But not yet, /restarts are not finalized.

Do you have to be a part of the faction to join in? Or can someone just randomly join:D

So, even though the Outcasts own bases in the Taus and Orkney, they do not participate? They will be caught in the crossfire in a way or the other, mostly with small wings of bombers and fighters that wouldn't hold long anyway,
