When: August 6th, 18:00 UTC (server time) Where: Minnesota, Liberty
How:
LN:
The Liberty Navy forces will gather at Juneau Shipyard before the event begins. A total of six snubs and the LNS-Victory, alongside the prison transport carrying Rear Admiral Knight will depart Alaska for Radford Research Station in Virginia. On the way, they will be ambushed by the LSF in Minnesota, and a fight for survival will ensue. The Navy will travel only using trade lanes and the marked route in Minnesota.
If the Liberty Navy is victorious, they move on to Radford and transfer the Rear Admiral onto the station.
The route will be: Alaska (Juneau Shipyard) -> New York -> Texas -> Minnesota (Ambush) -> Virginia (Radford Research Station)
LSF:
The Liberty Security Force and Battlegroup Harmony will gather a total of six snubs and an LSF Cruiser at Dartmouth Station in New Hampshire. Once the event begins, the group will move to Minnesota and establish a blockade. When the Liberty Navy arrives, they will intercept the transporting convoy and try to eliminate the escorts.
If the Liberty Security Force is victorious, they take control of the transport and move on to Kodiak Research Station in Alaska.
Rules:
-Registration for the event is -mandatory- to participate.
-This event is for the LISTED PLAYER FACTIONS ONLY. Indies are not allowed to participate.
-Once the fight begins, the prisoner transport will be immobile until a clear victor is decided. You are -not- allowed to shoot the prisoner transport.
-Troll loadouts (such as dual nova bombers, dual mine SHFs, dual torp/missile SHFs, torp+missile fighters, etc) are not allowed in the event.
-Once you are in the fight, you will not be cheesy and run to restock. When the fight stays, you stay.
LSF has claimed Alaska as their integral space and demanded that all non-LSF elements leave the system, and Zone-21, immediately. Meanwhile, Rear Admiral Knight, the commander of Battlegroup Harmony, is still locked down in Juneau Shipyard. ESRD has decided that the shipyard is no longer a secure location to interrogate the Admiral, and has decided to organize a relocation operation.
LSF's sensors were quickly tripped and the convoy's IFFs were sent to the LSF network. The moment LSF noticed a Navy prisoner transfer convoy heading out of Alaska, there was no guessing on who the prisoner in question was. The news quickly reached the remnants of Battlegroup Harmony, who began mobilizing a group alongside the LSF to intercept the convoy before it reaches the most likely destination - Radford Research Station. The tensions are high - the Liberty Navy want everything to go without a hitch and sort out the situation as quickly as possible. They knew that the LSF would be making a move, and have sent highly experienced pilots along with capital ship escort to make sure the mission is successful.
Meanwhile, the remnants of Battlegroup Harmony are itching to get their Rear Admiral back in action and safe on their side - they aren't willing to let this opportunity pass by that easily...
Roster:
LSF and Battlegroup Harmony:
(NOTE: More slots may appear if enough people register)
Liberty Cruiser/LABC - =LSF=Willow.Grove @Jayce Fighter or Bomber - H|Layla.Whitaker @Ramke Fighter or Bomber - =LSF=Marisa.Marshall/=LSF=Hellcat @"Omicega" Fighter or Bomber - =LSF=Gamma.7 @Phantom Fighter or Bomber - =LSF=Delta.3 @t0l Fighter or Bomber - =LSF=Gamma.8 @Flash™ Fighter or Bomber - =LSF=Epsilon.8 @Venkman
The outcome of this event will directly influence how roleplay will proceed between the participating factions.
If the LSF/Harmony win, Battlegroup Harmony will return to being organized and Rear Admiral Knight will regain her freedom.
If the LN win, Battlegroup Harmony will continue being a mess and the Liberty Navy will still have a negotiations advantage as well as roleplay centered around the Rear Admiral.
(We would also like verification from admins that they are yet again fine with this event happening - wouldn't want to be breaking any rules by doing this)
