Fleet terminology: Difference between revisions

Line 8:

A fleet commander or wing commander will post several things in Alliance to form a fleet. You may see:

* '''Scouts convo me''' -- This is a fleet commander asking for available scouts to start communications with him. Scouts are unique in the way they join the fleet. Normally, people joining the fleet will post in Alliance, but scouts use this method to help shield their identity from those who aren't in the fleet. However, not all FCs will utilize this protocol, and sometimes the identities of scouts are known to the whole fleet.

* '''Leadership X-up''' -- This is the fleet commander asking individuals with leadership skills trained to volunteer to be wing commanders or squad commanders. Leadership skills include:

* '''L5 3/3/3/3''' -- This will be posted by pilots volunteering for booster roles.

** {{sk|Leadership}}

** {{sk|Wing Command}}

** {{sk|Fleet Command}}

* '''L5 3/3/3/3''' -- This will be posted by ~~other~~ pilots volunteering for ~~wing or squad commander~~ roles~~. More about [[Fleet Leadership]] can be found here~~.

* '''Tacklers sign up''' -- This request is for ships whose primary job will be to tackle (use stasis webifier and/or warp scramblers/disruptors on the enemy).

* '''EWAR sign up''' -- This request is for ships whose primary job is to use electronic warfare against the enemy.
