CATCH YOUR LUCK!

Nomads vs Order • Omicron Minor • 21 dec. • 18:00 UTC

SYNOPSIS

Victor Bruno is one of the lucky few traders. Born on the planet Pittsburgh, he had been thinking up various schemes in his head since an early age, which undoubtedly bore fruit. At the age of 24, he could already manage a merchant ship and demonstrated skills of a young and promising entrepreneur. He was predicted to have an impeccable future in any corporation, but, as it happens with such people, Victor chose a different path.

He decided to engage in smuggling. Having started with small deliveries of weapons to the "wrong people", by the age of 27 this guy was transporting tons of cardamine and illegal artifacts to where they were needed. You will say that this goes against his conscience? He will answer: "Well, money has no smell, my friend." At the time of such trade operations, another ability was revealed in him: excessively huge luck. No matter what crazy adventure Victor took on, success always awaited him. Patrol ships couldn't catch up with him at the last moment, mercenaries were looking for him in one part of Sirius, and he was getting completely drunk in another. Somehow, everything worked out so that the blade of justice hung over him and was ready to strike, but didn't have time to do it, or missed and struck in a completely different direction.

But the blade of justice is not the hand of fate. Fate, like Victor, has a tendency to ask for payment for its services. And it seems that the very hour has come when it is necessary to repay the debt. Having decided on a not very smart idea to supply expensive weapons to the Mollys from Omicron Mu, this guy thought that the route through Minor, despite all the danger, was a smart idea.

"Damn it, I've always been lucky, what could go wrong this time?!"

Recalling this thought over and over again, Victor was in the cockpit of the already critically damaged ship. As expected, the Nomads caught him by surprise. He was lucky again, he was able to fight them off, he started to run. As if a poor animal was running from hunters in the forest, Bruno was running from the flocks of Nomad ships that were everywhere.

"There must be a way to deal with these creatures!" - he thought and sent a SOS-signal to the Order. Patrol ships had already seen increased Nomad activity in this system, and so the distress signal became a trigger for them to start action. Having assembled a tactical squadron, agents of the "humanity shield" threw their forces to help Victor, hoping not only to rescue him from trouble, but also to destroy a couple of Nomad clusters. The memory of Toledo must not be tarnished by alien creatures!

Will Victor be lucky this time too? Or will fate take from him the biggest price in his life?

EVENT DETAILS

It's very simple. Both sides have a key target - Victor's merchant ship. It will be in square F 4/5. Both sides must gather their forces in advance in the Omicron Minor system. As soon as everyone is ready, a signal will be given, and the Nomad and Order ships will move to the meeting point.

Nomads task: destroy the Order ships.

Order task: destroy the Nomad ships.

Neither side should attack Serenity, which, in turn, will not shoot at any of you. It will be static and slightly damaged for "realism". This same ship will be a prize for the winning side. It will go either to the most effective player, or randomly (depending on the diligence of the event participants). How you will use it further is entirely up to you.

I will reflect the results of the event in the form of an RP supplement to the front text of the topic. Of course, this is an unofficial event, so you won't be turning the history of the two sides' rivalry in favor of one of them.

Event rules:

You registered - you participate. If the list of players is full - you can go to the reserve and, most likely, become a balance tool in case of force majeure. If you are not on the list - grab your camera and watch!
Permitted ships: HF, VHF. Yes, you'll have to give up your light vessels, as well as anything called "capital ships." Let's save major battles for later, okay?
The center of the battle is Serenity. If you get 10K away from it, you're dead. Let's not waste each other's time and just have fun, shall we?
Cloaking/jump devices are prohibited. Well, I think it's all simple and clear, right? Right?
The server rules are still in effect. There will be no respawns, this is a classic battle in the best traditions of Discovery. The winner is the one who destroys all the ships of the enemy side.
