RULES

1) A participant can use any equipment they wish except for Locust swarm missiles, Chaos Swarm missiles, and Lightning Mines. All ships are allowed.

2) No running for obcene distances. This is subjective, but honestly.. I'll call it if you go out beyond 3,000 meters of anyone. This rule is flexible and bendable, but do not abuse it.
Better guide, don't go outside of the asteroid field.

3) Once you are dead, you are out. You may return to watch in an EC class ship, but must announce this over sector comm.

4) Once you leave the sector you are out. This means no repairing at a station, no reloading and no jumping out to jump back in when your team wins.

5) The prize is two million credits, split among the qualifying survivors ONLY! If you have broken a rule above but have survived, don't expect to get credits.

6) The Nation War event will be held at Sedina D-2, at the time of 20:00 GMT on Sundays between three teams, each team representing a nation (that's 3:00 p.m. forum time). Please try to be at least 10 minutes early.

7) Things may change due to unavoidable circumstances. Always follow the instructions of Omega 0.

8) If a participant is hated by their own nation, they have may go on any of the teams (including their nation's team) so long as they are A) Liked by that nation (Ignore if you join your own nation's team) and B) Announce it beforehand, to myself and/or the participants. This keeps everyone in the know.

9) No interfering with playability in the War sector. this includes (but is not limited to) cargo drops.

UIT won. I'll have video footage up soon, but it takes a while for it to clear in google video.

Yep , a good NW for the UIT that time , thanks for a good turnout and I hope all the newer players who turned up had an exciting time.

Many thanks Omega for runnng the event.

Ecka

Yes, you all indeed hear the voice of Commander Everson in that video. Unfortunately, I had no one to talk to, because Cunjo was down due to filming and A-Dawg's TS dropped right before the word go. For those of you who can't make out the words, here they are:

"The UIT aren't moving."
-The jerks waited on the blue and red to die and won
"Boink! ... Bouncing off of proms..."
-Yes, you too can become a 5000kg projectile headed toward the enemy if you fly a vulture and get sideswiped by an allied prometheus.
"Haha! I'm on fire this time."
-If it were unreal tournament, you'd have heard 'DOUBLE KILL' instead of this. Poor Finster and RentaGhost.

I had no idea that my armor lasted longer than the rest of the group (save adawg), never watch that during the fight. Cunjo's video helps put things in a better time line. Thanks for the good showing UIT!

So there I was, two Serco remaining, and I start taking fire from Surbius. Then Ecka. Then the rest of the UIT team. I think I was doing extraordinarily well, considering 6 to 1 odds, until in addition to the flares and neutron bursts I saw blue fly by the cockpit glass. There was Millennium Blackhawk with AAPs, and it was he who ended my ten second imitation of Neo. Good show guys :)

My framerate there at the end was what killed me... it got really choppy at a few points, and as I closed on that 'taur, I tapped my secondary (flares) twice, but they didn't fire because of the client lag induced by getting shot from behind. By the time I could turn around and react, it was too late.

Waited to die? We were in before one of you died.

Anyway, a good war and I welcome more UIT to join in.

Like Everson said, my TS dropped out just before the word go. I hurriedly shot after everyone (getting just below 10 fps) and then did cartwheels pecking people with AGT if they got close; all the while trying to get TS back up and running. I'm surprised no one took me out sooner.
