Ultimate/Planned Capital Ship Battle (6)
There will be an Ultimate/Planned Capital Ship Battle (6) Saturday, June 11, 2005, at 7pm GMT. Use Daylight Saving Time (where applicable) to translate the time. We will be using Scenario 2 for this battle.

The final rules can be found here:
http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/7/10404

There are going to be some changes for the battle this Saturday:

19:00 GMT All cap ships will spawn at their ready positions:
(UIT -- Azek I-16, Serco -- Initros O-12 and Itani -- Edras H-15
19:15 GMT Cap ships will start moving toward Sedina B8. When the cap ships get to the start positions (UIT = Latos H-2, Serco = Ukari A-10 and Itani = Pelatus K-15) and I announce the start of the battle, the battle will begin.

The battle will begin as close to 7:15 GMT as possible. Please be on time.

Remember you must register with your nation leader before the start of the battle. Only those players that register will be awarded Combat XP and money.

Serco and UIT (especially Serco) make sure you have a leader in place by 7pm GMT. Hopefully at your Cap ship’s spawning position. Since the battle will start earlier I need you to organize quickly. I will disqualify any team that doesn’t have a leader by 7:10pm GMT. (I will be in game by 6:45pm GMT please contact me as soon as you pick someone.)

More info about the changes to the cap ships here:
http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/3/10446#119961

The UIT currently hold the record for keeping their cap ship alive the longest. Let’s see if we can break that record :)

I once again want to thank the developers and guides for their help. Without them we wouldn’t have a game at all.

If you want the time changed for the next battle let me know.

I’m only posting here to make sure everyone knows about the battle. Please leave your suggestions, comments and opinions here:

PS. All donations to the prize fund are welcome. Just see me in game to donate.

BE READY !!!!!!!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you already know Update 1.2.3.3 was posted earlier today.

There are some major changes to the cap ships that will require some changes to the Ultimate/Planned Capital Ship Battles.

We are using Scenario 1 instead for this battle.

BE ON TIME!!! CAPITAL SHIPS WILL SPAWN IN SEDINA B8 AT 7:15pm GMT. Battle will start at that time.

Serco and UIT leaders it more important then ever that you pick a leader before the battle starts,

Everyone will get 25k for their participation. Consider this a test. I want to continue you to try to make it fair for all sides. But the people tonight have a distinct advantage over the players who weren’t here for the little pre-test.

*** PART SPOILER IF YOU WANT A SURPRISE DON”T READ BELOW ***
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes to the cap ships (what we learned tonight after the update)

1. Cap ships are 4 times stronger and so are the turrets.
2. Instant kill beam weapons are used on the turrets now. One to two hits will kill almost any player.
3. Beam range is 750m.
4. Cap ships will now shoot at each other. They will try to get close together and fire on one another.

There are more changes that will be discussed here:
http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/1/10606

Apology here:
http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/8/10614


But make sure you are on time. It is gonna be one heck of a fight!!!

Thanks to Andy and Michael for making the changes. (And any of the other developers who helped out.) I/We do really appreciate it.

Thank you all for participating we had a great fight. We had over 40 participants. (I suspended registration so I have no official count.) The Itani ship lasted the longest (finally)

[06/11/05 15:20:34] <Jestatis Bess> CONTINE BATTLE NOW THANK YOU
[06/11/05 15:45:54] [100]<Jestatis Bess> UIT CAP SHIP DEAD
[06/11/05 16:13:15] [100]<Jestatis Bess> SERCO CAP SHIP DEAD
[06/11/05 17:25:22] Jestatis Bess is having issues. (ITANI CAP SHIP DEAD)

UIT: 25:20
Serco: 52:41
Itani: 2:04:48

There really wasn’t a true winner. Consider this a test of the new cap ships. Equal amounts of combat XP and money were awarded to all players. 500 combat XP and $25,000 each.

There was a 2nd Itani cap ship in B8 left over from an earlier test. It was really the 1st cap ship to die. But it was 2 Itani cap ships to one UIT and Serco cap ships. The UIT and Serco had no chance.

I want to thank Andy and Mike for giving us an update. It seems as though a lot of our suggestions were incorporated into the update. And thanks to Obsidian for helping out and awarding the Combat XP.

Special thanks to Obsidian (for leading the UIT), Calder (for leading the Serco) and U

I think there was some confusion by the Itani during the battle. I made UPN leader of the Itani forces for the battle, as a joke. He really wasn't leading anything. (I also made an Itani leader of the Serco) I told everyone upfront on both sides there would be no rules basically. Just do what you want. Sorry for the confusion.

Finally thank every one again who showed up and participated. I’m going to suggest that the cap ships spawn every day at 7pm GMT for a fight in B8 for the next week. Just so there is plently of opportunity for all players to see the new cap ships
