Event Background.
With the repairs of Aland underway and the Norfolk departed to New London, the Order and Independent Miners Guild decided that this is their 'do or die' moment and launch a surprise assault on Bretonia after several months of laying low. The HMS Leviathan, a carrier class warship, is currently in drydock for maintenance on Aland Shipyard. Seeing a chance to strike a blow to Bretonia, Gallic intelligence forces launch a simultaneous assault on the trade lanes by the freeport, creating an additional distraction on top of the assault on New London and cutting off Alands defenders from potential capital ship support.
Core vessels, having intercepted news of Gallic forces incoming, swiftly fabricated a believable excuse for temporarily pulling away from the station so as to not risk damaging their diplomatic standing with either of the two houses. Aland shipyards defense now lays in the hands of the local Bretonian wings as contact with the Core vessels has been lost and the second wave of Order and IMG vessels appear on scanners.
Currently unbeknownst to the defenders is that several transports filled with explosives are among the attackers and set to ram the stations weakspots.
Objectives.
Defenders:
- Take out transports before they reach Aland Shipyard ("Reach" is defined as getting as close as 100m or less). 1 point per transport destroyed outside of reach.
- Defeat the most enemies. 4 points (as counted by how many waves won, not individual kills).
- Defeat the final wave before the Leviathan succesfully activates its Jump Drive Engines (4 minutes). 2 points.
Attackers:
- Escort the transports so they succesfully reach Aland Shipyard ("Reach" is defined as getting as close as 100m or less). 1 point per transport escorted succesfully.
- Defeat the most enemies. 4 points (as counted by how many waves won, not individual kills).
- Last longer in the final wave than 4 minutes or defeat the defenders within that time. 2 points.
Event rules.
The event will consist of four waves, respawning inbetween waves is allowed but repairing and restocking isn't.
This means even if you lose a wave you might have sufficiently weakened the opposite side to give you a chance in the next wave.
As we have no way to enforce the above rule and staff have signaled it as a rule people will most likely break the following rule is in effect instead:
The event will consist of four waves, respawning is allowed as is repairing and restocking. Note that server rules are still in effect; docking with a hostile
around is still a nono, event or not.
There will be four transports in total, a wave can include anywhere from 0 to 2 transports at a time, be sure to keep your eyes peeled!
As you may have noticed this event includes objectives as well as points for both sides, you may also have noticed the first post after this is reserved.
The point amount will decide who wins the event and to what degree.
A point majority indicates a victory and both sides having equal points a draw.
After the event the reserved post will be edited to reflect the outcome of the event and hint towards what may come next.
This means which (player made) follow up event occurs depends on the outcome of this event.
