A '''limited engagement''' is created whenever two capsuleers are involved in combat where both parties cannot legally shoot each other. So to ensure that you can always shoot back when aggressed, the limited engagement is created when legality isn't enough. The timer is renewed whenever either side of the limited engagement takes aggressive action.
A '''limited engagement''' is a permission between two pilots to freely engage each other or their assets in combat without interference of CONCORD. Limited Engagements are created on attacks towards other pilots that are under a suspect or criminal flag to allow them to defend themselves, but can also be gained from accepting a Duel Request.

===== Consequences of being in a limited engagement =====
Being involved in a '''limited engagement''' means that any for anyone to offer outside assistance, the assistee would be forced to go suspect unless you can both legally attack each other. Simply being attackable doesn't count, you actually have to have the right already through mutual wars, or your very own limited engagement mirroring the one your recipient has.
As long as a limited engagement is active, the involved pilots may freely engage each other, including attacks on capsules or any other assets. Any other pilot interfering in the combat between two pilots with active limited engagements, such as using remote support modules on one of the parties, will receive a suspect flag for the interference.


Naturally in null security space or wormhole space, where you are allowed to freely engage anyone at any time, there would be no legality issues and no timers apart from the combat timers would be created in the first place.
