——————-
Announcement video up over here.
The Rules:
10000 pts per fleet
no less than 3 ships (3333p ea. average)
no more than 10 ships (1000p ea. average)
no ships over 3500p
no ships under 750p
One faction per fleet
Only vanilla factions allowed- ie: no mod factions and no unplayable factions.
All blocks obtainable through campaign – ie: no F2 asteroid engines or F8 asteroid hexagons, no modified blocks.
All ships buildable in campaign – ie: no overlapping blocks, no multifaction ships.
No spinners:
A spinner is a ship which uses its angular momentum to throw projectiles at massively faster rates than intended, making them hard to dodge, OR a ship which uses a large rotational velocity to mitigate damage taken. A large, slowly rotating ship with turreted guns is probably okay.
No trollships:
A trollship is a ship which is massively under-thrusted, to the point where it can’t really participate in combat. Any ship entered should be expected to engage against a foe.
Matches will be with default settings. If the patch hits before the game comes out, default settings will be recreated as much as possible.
-1:30 time limit

I know it’s short notice, but I am feeling rather impatient and want to get this going as soon as I can!
