| − | During war, [[EVE University]] and Ivy League uses a strict set of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), typically referred to as the "War SOP".
| + | {{Historical}} |
| | | | |
| − | These are part of a carefully crafted war doctrine, based on years of experience in EVE, that is intended to bring the war to a quick close by denying the war's entertainment or profit value to the enemy, and by frustrating or even boring the enemy at every chance we get, while still meeting the University's educational goals by teaching students how to fight hisec wars. To that end, the SOP is intended to:
| + | Previously, EVE University used to maintain a separate section of rules that applied in wartime. This is no longer true. |
| | | | |
| − | *Deny the enemy easy kills of helpless non-combat ships.
| + | Members are now encouraged to read [[Tips For War|our tips on how to survive during wartime]] and other [[Wartime_Operations_in_EVE_University|advice for war time]]. It is highly suggested that new applicants read the tips for war before joining. |
| − | *Deny the enemy easy kills of poorly-fitted ships.
| |
| − | *Deny the enemy any kills of high-value ships that will look good on his killboard.
| |
| − | *Deny the enemy any chance to banter or smack talk with us.
| |
| − | *Deny the enemy any enjoyment from the conflict.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Below are the main rules and details, however you may simply read the contents if you do not require detailed information. References<font color="orange"><sup>[x]</sup></font> link to the bottom of this page where, if you wish, you can find the reasoning behind these rules.<br>

| − | | |
| − | The Default SOP applies to all members when the [[IVY Defence Status|DEFCON]] level listed in the [[Chat Channels and Mailing Lists|Chat.E-UNI]] channel is set as DEFCON 1. While this is typically during wartime, it may also be applied during peacetime if required.
| |
| − | | |
| − | The below rules are as clear as they can be made, but if you require clarification, then please speak to a [[EVE University Management|Director]]. There are no hidden meanings, and anything not listed here is '''not''' an official rule.
| |
| − | | |
| − | In the event you break one of the rules, then you should admit it and accept the consequences, rather than attempting to avoid the repercussions, as you will typically find leniency. Most wartime violations result in the person involved being temporarily removed from E-UNI, which we hate having to do.

| − | | |
| − | PvP fleets are comprised of three or more combat fitted ships<ref>War targets tend to want to pick off members flying solo, and will typically avoid a fight they may not be able to win.</ref>, who are seeking to engage war-targets or other hostiles<ref>PvP is always allowed in the Uni, as long as it follows our [[Rules of Engagement|RoE]]</ref> in [[LowSec]] and [[NullSec]].

| |
| − | | |
| − | Travelling is moving with no cargo (opposed to hauling) and is only<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> allowed in [[Frigate#Fast Frigates|'Fast Frigate']] class ships, [[Shuttle]]s and [[Starter Frigate]]s<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>. There is no requirement that you must travel toward HQ.

| |
| − | | |
| − | Setting up overviews, practising scanning and sparring<ref>This does not have to be inside the shield, but for safety reasons you should stay within 50km of the tower where possible.</ref> can be done at the POS, as it will engage any hostile targets on grid with you<ref>It will tend to take a few seconds for the POS to lock and kill a wartarget, so you must still be careful</ref>.

| |
| − | | |
| − | This counts for your characters in E-UNI; for those not in corp<ref>This should be fairly obvious, but we do not have any restrictions on what you do on any alts during wartime, as long as it does not reflect badly on the Uni.</ref>, it doesn't count.

| − | == You cannot fly any... ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | 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 the [[Fleet Admiral]] or [[CEO]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...'Covert Ops' ship without a certification ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is any ship which can fit a [[Covert Ops Cloak]]<ref>Which in the case of frigates is worth more than the rest of the ship put together, and a nice loot present.</ref>, such as:
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Frigate#Covert_Ops_Frigate|Covert Ops Frigate]]s<ref>These are very expensive for what they do, and need some practice and knowledge to avoid being decloaked.</ref>
| |
| − | *[[Stealth Bomber]]s<ref>These are expensive, require high skills, and are only effective with a well coordinated team.</ref>
| |
| − | *[[Force Recon]]s<ref>Like both the [[Stealth Bomber]] and [[Covert Ops Frigate]], these are expensive and need practice to use well.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | Individual certifications are available from the [[ILN]].
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...Tech 2 BattleCruisers or Battleships ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Command Ship]]s<ref>These are useful when you have very high or even maxed Leadership skills, but are not worth the [[Risk to ISK]] ratio.</ref>
| |
| − | *[[Marauder]]s<ref>These are PvE rather than PvP ships, built to take damage over a long period and loot missions.</ref>
| |
| − | *[[Black Ops]]<ref>These are useful in losec and nullsec, but expensive and require covert support and significant SP to fly well.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...Tech 3 ships ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Strategic Cruiser]]s<ref>Like many others, these are very expensive and not worth the [[Risk to ISK]] ratio.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...Mining Ships ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is any ship which has a bonuses related to [[Mining|mining]], barring the cruiser class<ref>The cruiser class of mining ships are dual-role, and therefore can be used for PvP and Mining.</ref>, such as:
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Mining Frigate]]s<ref>These are not designed for PvP at all, and in some cases are not even a match for the typical belt rat.</ref>
| |
| − | *[[Barge]]s<ref>This should go without saying, but they have little to no offensive capability if the target is not an asteroid.</ref>
| |
| − | *[[Exhumer]]s<ref>While they can fit a half-decent PvE tank, they are simply not suited to any PvP.</ref>
| |
| − | *[[Orca]]<ref>Big, slow, expensive and no means of defence? Not a PvP ship!</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...Haulers ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is any ship which is designed to move large amounts of cargo around<ref>In short, if there's something worth moving, its worth money to someone, and is better not put in harms way at all.</ref>, such as:
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Industrial]]s<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>
| |
| − | *[[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>
| |
| − | *[[Deep Space Transport]]s<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>
| |
| − | *[[Freighter]]s<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>
| |
| − | *[[Jump Freighter]]s<ref>Even worse than a freighter, far more expensive and not even as big. Avoid!</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...faction ships ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | *Any ship with 'Issue'<ref>Raven Navy Issue, Stabber Fleet Issue, etc.</ref> in the Name.<ref>While some of these may be good, they aren't worth the [[Risk to ISK]].</ref>
| |
| − | *Any 'Pirate' faction ship.<ref>Like any 'Issue' ships, they tend to be good, but very expensive, even against the T2 versions.</ref>
| |
| − | *Any ship listed in the 'Faction' subsection on the Market.<ref>This should be self-evident, but if a ship is not listed as 'Standard' or 'Advanced', they aren't allowed.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...rare or unique ships ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is any ship which has been seeded by [[CCP]]<ref>While they may not have cost you anything originally, they are still worth something to someone, and therefore tend to make good prizes on a killboard.</ref>, and the blueprints are not publicly available for, such as:
| |
| − | | |
| − | *[[Apotheosis]]
| |
| − | *[[Echelon]]
| |
| − | *[[Zephyr]]
| |
| − | *[[Interbus Shuttle]]
| |
| − | *[[Primae]]
| |
| − | *... and various others.<ref>Far too many to list here, including rewards from CCP for things like the [[Alliance Tournament]]s</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...Capital Ships ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is any ship which requires a jump drive<ref>Hopefully nobody is expecting to be able to use these in any HiSec wars.</ref> to move around, such as [[Dreadnought]]s and [[Carrier]]s.<ref>E-UNI has never lost a capital ship. You don't want to be the first!</ref>

| − | | |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | | |
| − | == You must fit... ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...your ship for PvP ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This depends greatly on the ship, but means no Mining lasers, cargo expanders or exploration (Codebreaker, Analyser, etc) modules, along with a Buffer tank where appropriate. For relevant fittings, [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewforum.php?f=129 see the forum].<ref>Hopefully this should be fairly self evident after playing a little EVE, but [[PvP]] fits tend to focus on 'buffer' tanks and are significantly different to [[PvE]] fits which focus on repairing over time.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...your guns and launchers efficiently ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This means using faction ammo where you can<ref>The extra damage is usually worth the money, but if you cant afford it, thats ok.</ref>. Remember you don't need to fill your cargo, no matter what the ammo - you need only take one or two reloads on most fleets.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...no faction, officer or deadspace modules ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This is any module with a [[Meta Level]] above 5<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>, however scouts with the Covert Ops certification may fit a faction probe launcher at their discretion.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...a Tech 2 tank on BattleCruisers and Battleships ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This means your tanking modules are mainly Tech 2, such as Hardeners, Extenders, and so on.<ref>There are some exceptions to this where the Meta 4 module has better statistics, and is cheaper or easier to fit, but in all cases you must still have the skills to fit the modules individually.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...your ship for its role ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This should go without saying, but it means the modules on your ship should not typically cost massively more than the value of the hull. Tackle frigates are fit cheaply and disposably<ref>Use Meta 0, 1 or 2 modules where you can as they are very cheap.</ref>, and module cost scales with the cost of the hull<ref>The bigger the ship, the less likely it is to die quickly in a fight, therefore it is worth fitting it well.</ref>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...appropriate rigs ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | *No rigs on T1 [[Frigate]]s or [[Destroyer]]s.<ref>These are used for tackling and die quickly, so the extra cost is not worth it until you have maxed out all the skills, at which point you should probably be flying something bigger.</ref>
| |
| − | *Optional rigs on [[Cruiser]]s.<ref>Depending on your skills and cash flow, you can fit rigs on cruiser hulls if you want.</ref>
| |
| − | *Rigs on [[BattleCruiser]]s and [[Battleship]]s.<ref>These ships abilities are greatly improved by fitting appropriate rigs.</ref>
| |
| − | *Rigs on all T2 ships.<ref>For the extra ISK involved in the hull, it would be silly not to.</ref>
| |
| − | *No Tech 2 Rigs.<ref>These are horrendously expensive and never provide bonuses worth the extra ISK for PvP.</ref>
| |
| − | | |

| |
| − | | |
| − | == You must ''always''... ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...be on Mumble when in space ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | You don't have to be able to speak, just to listen. This counts for travelling as well as fleets.<ref>If something happens, you need to be able to communicate it quickly, or at least receive instruction quickly. The few seconds it can take to type something and someone to read it back is often the difference between success and failure.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...follow OpSec ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Operational Security]] is very important in a group the size of [[EVE University]] which has recruiting this open.<ref>Its trivial for a hostile to infiltrate the Uni, so assume there are spies everywhere! Remember, loose lips sink internet spaceships!</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...check the Local channel for War-Targets ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Check it before you undock, and keep checking it whenever you are in space. Hostiles may appear at any moment.<ref>The Local channel is the best tool any player has as to what is going on, and during war it should be made as tall as possible so you can see as many people as possible without scrolling.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...dock up if there are War-Targets ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | If not in a fleet<ref>Hopefully that should go without saying, but if you are in a fleet you should be killing them.</ref> and you see a War-Target in space or the local channel, then dock immediately, no waiting.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...avoid Trade Hubs when travelling ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Where possible, you should avoid [[Trade Hubs|Trade hubs]] when travelling<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 being docked there.

| − | | |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | | |
| − | == You must ''never''... ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...speak to a War-Target ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Apart from a "GF" (good fight) in local, we use our guns to communicate with war targets. This means no communication with the WT at all, be it through a convo or local.<ref>A casual comment can lead to a war turning very nasty, and you may end up accidentally passing intel.</ref>. Only Directors and Diplomats are allowed to talk to them, so just ignore them and report any attempts to contact you to the [[Director of Public Relations]] or another [[Director]].<ref>We have a lot of practice in dealing with hostiles, and can speak on behalf of the whole University.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...discuss the war in public ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | By public, we mean anywhere other than the E-UNI channels and forum. This also includes any alts and those who have left E-UNI for the duration of the war and expect to return.<ref>Similar to talking to war-targets, this can reflect very badly on the Uni as a whole.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...use the Autopilot ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Apart from using it to plot a course and highlight gates, it must never be used to actually fly your ship. All manoeuvres<ref>This includes setting the next system as a waypoint, and enabling autopilot while in warp, as it leaves a crucial few seconds before jumping.</ref> must be done manually.<ref>The Autopilot is dangerous even in peacetime as it drops you around 15km from the gate, meaning that you need to either align and enter warp to escape or burn those 15km to the stargate to jump through. Not to mention that Autopilot promotes being AFK.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...mine, anywhere at all ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Mining leads to sitting still for ages, not really paying attention<ref>This is the ideal way to trade your ship for a cluster of twisted metal because you weren't paying attention, and were in a fragile ship. </ref>. Mining in exploration sites, mission spaces or even in wormholes is not allowed.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...haul items, ever ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This means moving anything in your cargo other than ammo, charges or modules to swap out with current fit.<ref>A massive percentage of our war-targets declare war on E-UNI specifically to kill people hauling items, so providing them free stuff as a reward is a very bad idea.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...run Agent Missions or Incursions ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This includes any mission which requires you to move items, such as Distribution or Mining and also includes Epic Arc missions.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Missions which require you to kill NPCs, such as Security Missions<ref>PvE fits are totally different to PvP fits, and tend to be both very expensive and set to tank and deal a specific type of damage.</ref> and Incursions, may ''only'' be run during the [[Relaxed SOP]], and then only as part of a fleet while fully combat fit<ref>War targets tend to be looking for solo kills, and mission runners are almost always solo.</ref>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...run any PvE in known space ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This means [[Exploration|exploration sites]], [[COSMOS]] or [[Static Complex|static complexes]]<ref>All of these are pretty similar to running normal missions, but are easier to find you.</ref>. Exploration sites are allowed '''only''' in wormhole space<ref>It's unlikely a wartarget would follow a Uni fleet to [[w-space]] where they could be killed by anyone, otherwise they would be in nullsec or lowsec.</ref>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...go AFK in space ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Never leave your ship unattended for long periods when in space<ref>Being AFK, for an extended time, even cloaked at a safe-spot or sitting at the POS, simply isn't worth the risk.</ref>. Always dock up if you have to leave. If you are a scout or picket and need to take a short break, warp to a safe-spot and cloak up until you get back.
| |
| − | | |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Fleets... ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...must have at least three E-UNI members ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | These are individual people who are current EVE University members, so people running multiple accounts or alts don't count toward this.<ref>You need to be able to defend yourself and potentially kill any hostiles in the event you encounter a hostile target, and not present a nice easy kill. If the situation is not well in their favour, most hostiles will avoid combat.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...should have a covert scout if possible ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | At least one Covert Ops certified scout is encouraged but is '''not''' a requirement<ref>Knowing what is on the other side of a gate without letting the hostile know you are coming will always give you an advantage.</ref>. If a scout isn't available, then you can use [[Picket]] frigates instead<ref>Even jumping through the gate then immediately cloaking is preferable to not knowing what is there.</ref>. Remember that the scout does '''not''' have to be in E-UNI.<ref>Hostiles typically use out of corp scouts to avoid confrontations not in their favour. There is no reason we should not also.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...must be on Mumble with the FC able to talk ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Fleets must use the Uni [[Mumble]] server for voice communications, and the Fleet Commander must be able to talk.<ref>The few seconds needed to type out or otherwise pass a command are often the difference between a success and the loss of the whole fleet.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...members must not be impaired ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | This means in PvP, you have one active account logged in, not multiple accounts you are splitting your focus across (for example an out of corp scout with another member in space with the fleet). Similarly, fleet members must not be tired and/or intoxicated.<ref>You really don't want to be known as the fleet commander who fell asleep in the middle of a warp.</ref>
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...must hand all war loot over to the Uni ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | 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 [[PTS]] or [[CBT]] in Aldrat<ref>Wartime loot is sold and pays for things such as the [[Ship Replacement Program|ship replacement program]].</ref>. Fleets during peacetime may set their own loot policy or donate it to the ILN, with donations during peacetime '''not''' required.
| |
| − | | |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | | |
| − | == You can... ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | There are a number of options which you can do during wars apart from fleets hunting War Targets.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...run fleets in LoSec and NullSec ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Just because there are no war targets around doesn't mean there is nobody to fight. Take a fleet out to losec or nullsec, and see what you find<ref>This is a good way to practice, and there is usually someone to shoot and practice with, and you may run into wartargets.</ref>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...run Wormhole Operations ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | You may run combat sites in wormholes during wartime<ref>Wormhole combat sites require fits very close to normal PvP, and are a good way to practice fleet command.</ref>. All the other rules are in effect however, so fleets must be combat fitted and have at least three E-UNI members. A cloaked scout (either certified or picket) is required to stay at the exit to known-space<ref>This is simply to watch for any one entering the system, to give you advance warning.</ref>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you have a significant sized fleet (eight or more members), salvage [[Destroyer]]s, [[BattleCruiser]]s or a [[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. This is the ONLY exception.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...station trade ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Remember that moving cargo (items not for your current ship) is prohibited while using an E-UNI character, and the [[Daytrading]], [[Marketing]] and [[Procurement]] skills allow you to trade remotely. 'Shopping trips' are still prohibited.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...use an out of corp character ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | You can use an out-of-corp character or alt for [[Alt Missioning|Missions]], Mining and Hauling. Many missions may be accepted on your E-UNI character but performed with an alt.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...leave E-UNI until the war ends ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you want to, [[So, You Want to Leave 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 when returning.
| |
| − | | |
| − | <br>
| |
| − | | |
| − | == During Relaxed SOP... ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | The "Relaxed SOP" is a modification to the normal SOP which allows E-UNI members to engage in limited [[PvE]] activity without dropping from the corporation. [[EVE University Management|E-UNI Directors]] will notify members when Relaxed SOP is in effect via the Message of the Day [[Chat Channels and Mailing Lists|Chat.E-UNI]] and an EVE-mail to the alliance.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...Security missions may be run in a fleet ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | These are the agent missions, not incursions, exploration, etc. As long as the fleet has at least three E-UNI members, then you may have as many out-of-corp people in the fleet as you want.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...Incursions may be run with an E-UNI fleet ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | 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, 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>.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...mission & incursion fleets must stay together ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | In other words, everyone must be in the same mission space so they can engage the hostiles if they appear.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...ships are still fit for combat ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | All ships must still be fitted with wartime-compliant fits, not to haul/salvage/mine/explore or anything else.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...Distribution and Mining missions are prohibited ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Use an out-of-corp alt for these if you have to.
| |
| − | | |
| − | === ...all other rules are the same ===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Everything else in the SOP is as normal wartime - no faction ships or modules, ships must be properly fit, travelling is limited to small ships, etc.

| − | = Lockdowns =
| |
| − | | |
| − | Lockdowns may be called by an [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/ilnofficers ILN Officer] or [[EVE University Management|Management]], and are typically limited to a specific area.
| |
| − | | |
| − | These mean any NON-fleet activity is no longer allowed and all pilots MUST be docked unless in a combat fleet and ordered to be undocked by their FC. You may not travel into or out of the lockdown area, except via [[Jump Clones|clone jump]].
| |
| − | | |
