Deaily free equipment for Serco military

Jun 04, 2011 pirren link
+ Allow Serco with 900+ standings complete daily mission at GR-O4.

Mission requirements:
Serco 900+
Itani: -1000
8/6/8/1/1/

Mission should be pretty simple:
"Greetings pilot. Here's some bonus equipment to fight Itani aggressors. Please choose setup you prefer."

Option 1. Light fighter setup.
Player receives:
4xSVG
4xGauss mk2
4xSunflares
4xNeut mk3
4xIneub
4xHeavy batt

Option 2. Heavy setup.
Player receives:
4xProm mk1
4xGauss mk2
4xSunflares
4xAGT
4xPlasma Devastator mk2
4xHeavy batt

Options 3. Assault setup.
4xRagnarok Mk3
8xChaos Swarms
12xGems
4xFast Charge

(I posted it here, becuase atm it's not possible to implement such mission with PCC resources).

I like it, you'd probably have to have something for Itani as well. And maybe, UIT pilots... but no Proms or Valks for non nationals.

+1

Pirren, for Serco side it can be implemented in PCC. But for Itani, no Valks in editor. You can offer choices to player, and interact with responses, then give items... quite trivial, are you in PCC? Let's discuss there.

But I really don't like it, giving 4 ships and many weapons for nothing? Maybe if you give ONE ship and its equipament, and request in return that player joins the fight in Deneb... only in GR stations... that would make sense.

Alloh, I am member of PCC, it can't be implemented.

This cannot be implemented in PCC because none of the ships listed above can be given to the player (please keep further discussions in the PCC forum).

+1 to only one ship per day with one set of weapons

+1 to Itani equivalent, but UIT should not have one (unless perhaps non-combat variants of ships used instead)

-1000 Itani standing seems I bit harsh, I'd make it -800. In addition, it would be a good idea to also require that the player has completed the 'join military' mission. It is also possible to make the mission only available to Serco players, but I'm on the fence as to whether that should be imposed or not.

The license required should be 8/8/8/4/-:
*Ineubus Ravens require 8 light
*Fast Charge requires 4 trade
*No need for the mining requirement

I don't like the idea of 'free' ships. I think a better implementation would be to award the player the ships and weapons and then the mission continues on to a patrol mission (or some such). If the player aborts the mission after getting the free equipment then impose a significant standing loss, and after the player aborts the mission too many times without doing the patrol make the mission no longer available.

hmm, meridian, licenses you mentioned are required to buy item, not equip ;)
Jun 04, 2011 meridian link
I don't follow you pirren. Licenses don't matter for buying, only for equipping. And the numbers I gave are what's required to equip the items (not counting grey space, but the mission is in Geira Rutilus after all).

I believe the mission should only be revealed after completing so many Border Skirmishes or Border Patrols. Otherwise, I agree with meridian.

-Get this ($NATIONSHIP) and go to ($LOCATION). If you survive the battle, the ship is yours to keep. If you die, it our ship that you are losing. You can repairs at capships, but can't leave sector for the next $T minutes! Bonus fo enemies kills and free RR @cappies!

Requires?
-Homed ($here-GR|Deneb)
-Military admired here, hated there
i.e., UIT that joined (Serco|Itani) military can take it.
