Anatomy of Incursions: Difference between revisions

Line 583:

Sometimes you can afford to give certain members free reigns in what they shoot, if they are knowledgeable about incursions or fly a specific ship that doesn't quite fit your pre-determined roles. More experienced players for example could determine on their own if there's room for taking a few shots at an incoming frigate before moving on to the cruisers. Some pilots could be entrusted to direct their own drones instead of assigning them to the dronebunny, if for example they have the range and ability to use them to shoot ships that spawn outside normal drone control range. This would of course require that the pilots are well accustomed to the needs of the fleet commander and knows the limits of their ship, so as not to waste their potential.

In certain fleets it might even be worth it to simply call ''New wave!''' instead of actually calling specific targets, leaving comms open for more important information or simply to allow for more conversation. This of course assumes you're running with experienced players who know what to shoot already. Be mindful of new people joining the fleet, so you adjust accordingly.

In certain fleets it might even be worth it to simply call {{co|wheat|''"New wave!"''}} instead of actually calling specific targets, leaving comms open for more important information or simply to allow for more conversation. This of course assumes you're running with experienced players who know what to shoot already. Be mindful of new people joining the fleet, so you adjust accordingly.

Just be careful giving people this freedom, because unless they know your style and can anticipate when to stop going off on their own and fall back on your orders you can quickly end up with an unruly fleet with no direction.
