New System Rules

[Igiss]

I'm intended to make system controlling rules more clear. It seems that each faction leader now has his/her own view of what system his/her faction ownz. Therefore I'm proposing that every faction will revert its status to 3 controlled/1 home system (no more 4 total) and later claim other systems from other factions or purchase systems... yes, purchase. Free systems from administrator, controlled systems from factions. Free system cost is 200 million. I'm also introducing weekly maintainance cost for each controlled system.

Proposal for new system rules:

3. Rules of system claiming

3.1 Each new faction has a right to claim home system and 2 controlled systems when entering server.

3.2 Territory of a faction consists of home system and controlled systems. Controlled systems are subject to disputes and military conflicts between factions. Home system may be subject to disputes only if the faction loses all of its controlled systems.

3.3 Each of the controlled systems must be directly connected via jump gates or jump holes to at least one controlled system or home system of the same faction.

3.4 Each faction must pay maintainance cost of 15 million per week for each system under its control. Maintainance cost for home system is 0. Maintainance cost is substracted by server administrator from any character belonging to faction.

3.5 If faction is unable to pay maintainance cost, it loses one system per week. Faction leader can choose what system to give away.

3.6 Factions can purchase free systems for 200 million credits each. Direct connection rule is in force for system purchasing.

3.7 Factions may claim systems belonging to other factions. If attacking faction wins a battle over a system, the system changes its owner. Direct connection rule is in force for system claiming.
