Fleets are counted as one or more people. If alone, you must still create your own fleet <ref>Right click yourself, select 'Form Fleet with...', then create a fleet advert with only the 'My Corporation', 'Application Requires Approval' and 'Hide Details In Advert' boxes checked.</ref>, which allows other E-UNI members to join you at your location rapidly in the event of a problem.

There are a number of restrictions on what ships you are allowed to fly during wars<ref>When faced with a significant fleet, wartargets will typically go for the biggest or most expensive kill they can get to pad their killboard.</ref>. If you want to fly one of these ships, then you must receive written permission from an [[Archive:Ivy League Navy|ILN Flag Officer]] or [[EVE University Management|Director]].  

*[[Battlecruiser#Tech 2 Battlecruisers: Command Ships|Command Ships]]<ref>These are useful when you have very high or even maxed Leadership skills, but are not worth the [[Risk to ISK]] ratio.</ref>  

*[[Battleship#Marauder|Marauders]]<ref>These are PvE rather than PvP ships, built to take damage over a long period and loot missions.</ref>  

*[[Battleship#Black Ops|Black Ops]]<ref>These are useful in losec and nullsec, but expensive and require covert support and significant experience to fly well.</ref>

This includes the specialized [[Mining|mining]] ships, such as:  

If you really ''must'' mine, you may do so in a T2 tanked Battleship while in a fleet, but make sure you watch local.

*[[Hauling#T1 Industrials|Industrials]]<ref>While they can have a decent buffer tank to avoid some suicide ganks, they are slow and do not survive long in PvP.</ref>  

*[[Hauling#Blockade Runners (T2 Industrial)|Blockade Runner]]s<ref>These can warp cloaked, are fast and maneuverable, which is nice, but they are expensive and still don't last long, which is not nice.</ref>  

*[[Hauling#Deep Space Transport (T2 Industrial)|Deep Space Transports]]<ref>These tend to have a half-decent tank, and built-in [[Warp Stabiliser|warp stabilisers]], but are very slow, expensive and an easy target.</ref>  

*[[Hauling#Freighters|Freighters]]<ref>This should go without saying, but while freighters have a decent amount of HP, they huge, slow, can be outrun by a capsule and are incredibly expensive if/when they are lost, even without any cargo.</ref>  

*[[Hauling#Jump Freighters (T2 Freighter)|Jump Freighters]]<ref>Even worse than a freighter, far more expensive and not even as big. Avoid!</ref>

Note that navy/police frigates are allowed, which means the [[Imperial Navy Slicer|Slicer]], [[Federation Navy Comet|Comet]], [[Caldari Navy Hookbill|Hookbill]] and [[Republic Fleet Firetail|Firetail]], however these should be flown with caution.

This is any module with a [[Meta Level]] above 5 - in other words no Storyline, Faction, Deadspace, or Officer modules.<ref>These are massively expensive compared to Meta 0-5 modules, and we don't want to leave anything valuable behind if you get killed.</ref>

* Tech 1 Rigs on [[Battlecruisers]] and [[Battleship]]s are required.<ref>These ships abilities are greatly improved by fitting appropriate rigs.</ref>  

You should avoid [[Trade hubs]] when traveling<ref>These are prime hunting grounds for most wartargets, and will often have hostiles or their alts present.</ref>, and go around them when you can. Remember, you can use Trade skills for station trading remotely without having to be docked in the station.

Loot from E-UNI wrecks should be collected and given back to the owner where possible, with any war-target loot placed into the "Ivy League Navy" Hangar at the [[PTS]] or [[CBT]] stations in Aldrat<ref>Wartime loot is sold and pays for things such as the [[Ship Replacement Program|ship replacement program]].</ref>. Fleets during peacetime and other pirate fleets may set their own loot policy or donate it to the ILN, and donations during peacetime are ''not'' required.

Travelling is defined as moving with no cargo (opposed to hauling) and should be done in a '[[Frigate#Fast Frigates|Fast Frigate]]'<ref>These are small, fast and can typically get through a camped gate if you encounter any hostiles. On top of this, they are also cheap, and will not typically make a significant ISK dent on the killboard.</ref>, [[Shuttle]] or [[Starter Frigate]]<ref>Travelling in a [[Capsule]], while possible, is generally a bad idea as they are so fragile. If flying a shuttle at least, you can survive at least one volley.</ref>.

If you have a significant sized fleet (eight or more members), a salvage [[Destroyer]], [[Battlecruisers|BattleCruiser]] or [[Noctis]] ''may'' be used in wormhole fleets, complete with Salvaging Rigs<ref>With appropriate precautions and support, they can be kept relatively safe</ref>. These ships MUST fit a cloaking device and full tank, and sit cloaked at a safe spot until time to salvage and then be guarded while salvaging.

Incursions are allowed, but fleets must only be comprised of E-UNI members<ref>Anyone assisting will flag themselves to the hostiles</ref>. Joining a public Incursion fleet is therefore prohibited in wartime, as it risks our status with the Incursion fleet organizers, and failure to follow this will likely see you [[The Departed|Departed]]<ref>The membership has worked hard to build trust with these groups, so if you risk this, you will be treated as a hostile target.</ref>.

If you want to, [[Leaving EVE University#Leaving for the war|you may leave the Uni until the war ends]] without any penalties. You will retain access to the vast majority of forum content, channels, classes, the Wiki and even Mumble, and will be fast-tracked through recruitment when returning.

An advisory means that any non-combat activity is prohibited and all pilots must be docked unless they are in a combat fleet and under orders to be undocked by their Fleet Commander. Travel into or out of the advisory area should be done by [[Frigate#Fast Frigates|Fast Frigate]], [[Frigate#Shuttles|Shuttle]], Starter Frigate or [[Jump Clones|clone jump]].

[[Archive:Ivy League Navy|ILN Staff Officers]] are authorised to order a single shot to be fired to 'wake up' a member who appears to be AFK or inattentive, followed by the potential destruction of their ship rather than have it fall to an enemy.
