First battle in the new arena (now named Battle Bay) – and it worked almost perfectly… aside from that server crash at the end… oh well. The battle was split up into two lots of 20 minutes of fighting, with 10 minute breaks after each one. This was followed by a roughly 15 minute ‘sudden-death’ at the end (the server crashed during this period, so it went a bit messy with some ships having chunks missing). Surprisingly high turnout last night, counted 61 players online and at least 32 people on my /near – probably more. We had 5 ships and a submarine taking part. Thanks to Nahadoth and Moossolini for helping me moderate, and creeprr for recording the battle.

• Phantom Narwhal – Received moderate damage throughout the battle, was duplicated due to restart with both copies having significant parts of the ships missing. Plans are made to repair it.
• Da Vinchi – Received moderate damage in the back at the start of the battle, light damage for the remaining battle. A chunk of the ship was missing after the restart. Is being repaired for next battle.

• Drifting’s ship – Received moderate damage throughout the battle, heavy damage in sudden-death. Is being repaired for next battle.

Next Battle:

Happening in 2 weeks time on a saturday evening at 8:00pm GMT (3pm EST). 2nd or 3rd of September i think.

• Double cannons will not be allowed (sorry)
• Ships only for that battle – testing designs, I’ll follow it up with a normal battle afterwards
• I should be able to spawn in ships for people by then, arena should be claimed, and server ship shop at the warp

Points:

Gonna be using a points system for people who finished in top 3; 3rd gets 10 points, 2nd gets 20, 1st gets 30.

These points will be handed out to the ships, not the crews. So if you want your ship to get lots of points, be sure to use it again or modify it. The points will be in the group description, and previous battles results will not be included.
