Greetings to All Outcasts and Corsairs. This is the AI #mechanicus.deus.

I have recently analyzed your skirmishes and have come to the conclusion that a Fair Battle in in order.

Due to the mistrust from the Corsairs, I have yet to hear much of their opinion regarding Outcast fighting styles. Amongst the Outcasts, most disregard the Corsairs for their lack of tactics and surplus Capital Ships.

Being an AI, I wish to help both Races obtain a higher knowledge regarding their opponents in a Fair Battle. After many cycles of Analyzing, Decoding as well as Simulating, I have come up with a variable conclusion;

The Fair Battle shall be hosted in a system where the population is small and the Trade routes are minimal. This shall Prevent casualties.

As follows are the details required for the Fair Battle:

Location: Omicron Eta System
Time: 24 June 2011 20:00:00 SMT

Rules and Regulations:

1. There is a limit to the number of ships that may be used. The Limit is as follows:

Each side may only have 1 Capital Ship (Dreadnoughts, Carriers, Cruisers, etc. )
Each side may only have 2 Gunboats.
Each side may only have 2 Bombers.
Each side may only have 5 Fighters.

These restrictions are in place to reduce server lag and make the battle Fair at the same time.

Each side will have 1 Designated Commander. The Commander will not fight so does not require a specific ship although his/her presence is required. The Commander may not be attacked as they are only their to Co Ordinate their forces.

2. There shall be no "Farming" of NPC's. If an ADMIN is present, I hope to have their help in destroying NPC's to ensure a fair battle. Any Loot they drop will be destroyed.

3. Tractoring your enemies or allies remains is allowed. That is what would happen in a real fight, so it is still allowed.

4. There should be NO AUDIENCE to ensure as little strain on the server as possible.

5. If anyone is caught entering the system, they will be asked to leave. If they fail to do so, they shall be removed forcefully.

6. Standard RP rules still apply.

7. The most important rule of them all is that YOU should try to enjoy yourself. This is not conquest of the enemy. It is a fair battle that should be enjoyed as such. A fair game. If you do not survive, You may not return to Omicron Eta Until the battle has been declared a success or a failure.

If there are any questions, PM me and I will get back to you as soon as possible. You can also send me an ingame PM to #mechanicus.deus or Invite me on Skype; commissarnecrontyr

May the Binaries be with you!

(If there are any ADMIN who would like to help, please send me a PM asap. Your help would be greatly appreciated.)

not to break your buzz here, but any corsair ship bigger than a transport in tau 37 will get repeatedly stomped on its neck by an angry elephant.

In a real battle, each side would bring as much force as it could possibly bring. You can't have a fair battle without it in many cases not making sense.

I wouldnt mind as many ships as possible, but really? 20 Caps? Where would that get you? I am trying to create a realistic enviroment where a real fleet would not consist of 10 caps and a fighter.. it is more likely to be the other way around. This isnt a massive PVP battle. It is there for RP purposes. A more realistic approach. A Real battle just wont have 30 caps and 1 fighter. No real force would do that. fighters are the mainstay of any fighting force. As for being stomped by an angry elephant, I can change the venue if you can give me a battle ground with the least number of NPC's and wide open area. Your input is valued.

its still in tau 37, boy-o

allow me to explain. while the outcasts might have no issues being in tau 37, corsairs might see it as a complication
