From VO ROLEPLAYING FORUMS FINAL RULES
http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/7/10218?page=2#117833
---------------------------------------------------------------

Final Guidelines/Rules

1. All players should defend their own nation's capital ships. But, you are not required to defend your nation’s cap ship though. If you want to, you can help another nation (traitors :)

2. Combat will start in grey space when all ships reach the following locations:
UIT = Latos H-2, Serco = Ukari A-10 and Itani = Pelatus K-15

3. You should defend your ship and if necessary heal it on the journey. Watch out for pirates though. And remember the severe penalty for killing an admired player in nation space.

4. Any player attacking a cap ship OR its defenders before the battle will be KOS for all nations.

5. NO WINGBUGGING

6. Chanel 205 will be used event communications.
a. One player from each group should report their Cap ship’s location on 205. They should post at least the following location information:
1) when you leave your capital system
2) when you enter Grey Space
b. If anyone attacks your cap ship, please post their name on 205

7. The ship that stays alive the longest is the winner, in or out of Sedina B8. . The winners receive 2 Million credits. Each nation needs to pick a leader before the event and message me their name. I’ll give the 2 million to the leader of the winning nation and they can distribute the money to their players. And of course you’ll have bragging rights.

Estimated Time Line (All times in GMT)

6:20pm Cap Ships Will be spawned
ONLY THE ITANI SHIP WILL BE USED FOR THE BATTLE

7:00pm Cap Ships Will be spawned again
ONLY THE ONLY THE UIT AND SERCO SHIPS WILL BE USED
FOR THE BATTLE

7:15pm The cap ships will wait at the following locations until all the ships get in postiton:
UIT -- Azek I-16, Serco -- Initros O-12 and Itani -- Edras H-15

7:30pm All ships will jump to the following locations and the battle will start:
UIT = Latos H-2, Serco = Ukari A-10 and Itani = Pelatus K-15

Note: Since the first set of UIT ans Serco cap ships won’t be used for the battle feel free to kill them before 3:00pm. If the ships are not destroyed before 3:00om I’ll ask Sherpa to send in some bots to finish the job.

Please check your time in advance :)

The 2nd set of Cap Ships will have unique names (picked by the name generator) so there will not be a problem knowing which ship is from which wave.
May 06, 2005 a1k0n link
ehm, but the name generator might designate them all as Serco cap ships even if they're not.
May 06, 2005 sarahanne link
I don't think that will be a problem. I've tested this accidently.

Again good job to all!!! I’ll start a poll in the General forums for the next battle.

By the way, I’ve given out the prize money to the UIT’s. 100K each. If you haven’t received your money please message me in game.

And Thanks Sherpa for spawning the cap ships :)
