An idea came across my mind, what if the House War zones, e.g. North Leeds and the Outcast v Corsair Omicron Eta became classified as a Warzone under PvP rules, well here are some rule alterations, that I think can be tweaked:

Server Rules Link
  • Re-engagements are allowed
  • Using cruise to catch up is permitted
  • Charging cruise engines isn't a loss, being destroyed is
  • You do not have to leave the system
These are some of the rules that I believe can be tweaked for the following goal:
Longer, and bigger battles with a chance for RP in-between and in fights, and hopefully, more fun and more interesting fights.

With these rules, it is possible for ambushes to be placed, it is possible to 'cut-and-run', it is possible to re-arm bombers mid battle, it is possible to spy, see their forces, run away when they get too close, then with help fight back.

However, for these rules to apply ONLY the major factions or belligerents can have these taking place. For example, only the Corsairs and Outcasts can have these rules applied in their war. And BAF and KNF forces can only have the special rules in North Leeds, I am not sure if central can apply, or the whole system. I am also unsure if the BPA can have the rules also, since they're defending.

No freelancers, pirate, mercenaries or whatever can have these rules applied.

This is not a suggestion, it is an idea that I am interested to see discussed in open forum. At the moment I can see the benefits and some downsides. But you people have a better perspective than I.

So, feedback?;)

Huh. This sounds cool. Doubt it would be implemented though.

Where would you apply these rules for the Corsair/OC war? Only in Eta?
What about Rheinland? South Hudson (below Atka), and North Hamburg? (above the planet)

Else than that. Don't really think it will be implemented, although it would be nice.

Which would bring a lot of problems.
Besides, you can do all you mentioned there with the current rules.

How did you mean "re-engagements allowed" ? So, if I'm on my BAF sitting in Leeds, a KNF can come and attack me again and again and again ... if he wants? No please.
I hope I misunderstood the part.

If he's dead, he's dead, and shall leave for 4 hours. But if he can get away from you alive, he can come back and attack you again.
That's how i read that.

These hit and run things makes battles ... Battles from simple skirmishers. In my eyes. Yes for someone this might be anoyying, but warzone is warzone. It would create more eventish atmosphare I guess.

But still not sure on it. I would say "perhaps lets give it a try"

NO because there is too much rules right now and many many MANY ppl are lost in them, that proposal can only complicate situation and make it worst.

btw epic battles...

in present days 2 or more factions can have their private rules in combat determinated via PMs before fight... like alowed reengaging for exemple 2 times during battle. The only condition is - no indies in fight because indie = problems on forum;)
