Sovereignty: Difference between revisions

===After the event===

If the defender wins the command node event, the structure being fought for becomes invulnerable and will remain that way until the next vulnerability window occurs. If the attacker wins, the next steps depend on the type of structure being attacked. For I-Hubs and TCUs, the existing structure explodes. This allows anyone to anchor their own structure in space to replace the old one. If a station is attacked, it enters Freeport mode. This allows any player to dock at the station. It remains in this state for 48 hours, at which point a new command node control event begins. The winner of this event gains control of the station.

~~=== Old explanation ===~~

~~The main process for claiming the sovereignty of a region is the deployment of a sov-claiming structure, followed by the activation of an [[Entosis Link]] module on the deployed structure.~~

In exchange, the Entosis Link imposes some penalties on the user. A ship using an Entosis Link cannot cloak, warp, dock, jump, receive any form of remote assistance, or exceed a velocity of 4,000 m/s. The Entosis Link also takes one cycle to "warm up" before it actually begins the capture process.

Additionally, Entosis Links do not stack with each other at all. One Entosis Link being used to attack or defend a structure is just as time-efficient as 100, and as long as just one defender has an active Entosis Link on their structure, all 100 attacking Links will be negated.

The chief disadvantage for the defender is that their allies cannot use Entosis Links of their own to help defend the structure directly. All Entosis Links used by players not belonging to the owning alliance of the target structure are considered attackers from the structure's perspective.
