User:Paxte Eriker/incursions/Fleet setup in Incursions: Difference between revisions

Below are a few examples of how you can setup the fleet. Remember that each command position unlocks the use of a booster, but is not limited to being the booster themselves.

 

== Basic fleet supporting a single wing booster ==

* Ability to utilize the [[Roles in Incursions#Wing Commander|Wing Commander]] to warp the entire fleet.

* Squad and Wing Commanders can invite people to fleet, in addition to the [[Roles in Incursions#Waitlist manager|waitlist manager]] who's the fleet boss.

* Only requires one person with '''Wing Command II''' (Wing Commander) and another with '''Leadership V''' (Squad Commander of the ongrid squad).

== Fleet supporting multiple boosters ==

The most common use of this is to have both a Siege/Skirmish booster (with the Republic Fleet Warfare Mindlink implant) as well as a Armour/Information booster (with the Imperial Navy Warfare Mindlink implant), so you can get perfect boosts for both. Preferably you put the Siege/Skirmish booster as your Wing Booster to make sure that everyone gets the defensive bonuses, then the Armour/Information booster in the Fleet Command position (remember that the Wing Commander won't get his boosts).

Gang links and utility modules offer tremendous effects for a fleet, easily capable of increasing efficiency for individual pilots or the entire fleet. Be that by pushing range of certain modules past a critical threshold to fleet-wide increases that allow you to operate effectively with fewer people, or simply be that much stronger with the people you already have.

Below are lists of skills required for and the effects of gang links, stacking penalties for webs and various utility modules and their effects.

== Warfare Links ==

Gang links, or so called ''"warfare links"'', are immensely powerful modules that improves the efficiency of ever single ship that receives their boosts. The links themselves boosts anything from armour and shield defenses, efficiency of remote repairs, electronic warfare, propulsion modules, locking ranges to reducing the signature radius of ships and making them harder to jam.

The combination of several links can create very powerful effects, like making logistics capable of operating with twice the efficiency thanks to the boosts. The combination of increased resists, reduced signature, faster cycle times etc all adds up.

Even single links can be tremendously useful, like the skirmish link boosting web range making it possible to use webs efficiently, or the information warfare link increasing locking range thus giving most snipers enough locking range without fitting a single sensor booster.

Below are the skills required to become an incursion booster. If you're only going to use one implant, it's enough to train just two of the specialization skills. The '''Fleet Command''' skills aren't strictly needed for one-boost setups, as you'll never be in the actual Wing Command position. But if you want to be use a two-boost setup one of the boosters will need to have those skills trained.

The following will assume you have all the relevant skills trained to V and using tech two gang links, then show the difference between the various ships with or without (numbers in parenthesis) the appropriate mindlink implant. You can read more about warfare links and the details on the [[warfare links]] page.
