==== Basic Ship Movement ====

* Explain how movement works, via overview or by double-clicking.

* Explain how a ship's mass, propulsion modules, maximum speed, inertia and other factors adjusts a ship's ability to maneuver.

* Explain how to look up a ship's mass and speed statistics.

* Have each student do a "Show Info" on their ship to look up their mass, speed, and inertia attribues, and to look up mass on armor modules and such.

==== Tactical maneuvering a ship using the overview ====

* Break down how ranges in the overview can affect a player, both in movement from point A to Point B, and for combat.

* Explain the Orbit, Keep At Range and Approach commands.

* Explain speeds and percentages of maximum throttle.

* Have each pilot move their fast frigate (A Condor, Executioner, Slasher or Atron) through each navigation point in order by using the overview, activating their warp scrambler each time they reach a navigation point.

* Monitor whether or not they stop at each waypoint, or fluidly move through each point without stopping.

==== Tactical maneuvering a ship via double-clicking ====

* Explain how doubleclicking works, and how it can be used to strategically maneuver one's ship around each point.

* Have each pilot move their fast frigate (A Condor, Executioner, Slasher or Atron) through each navigation point in order using the overview as reference only, and doubleclicking to navigate;

* Have each pilot activate their warp scrambler each time they reach a navigation point.

==== Warping - How it works ====

* Explain how warping works, and how ships can warp at different speeds.

* Explain what an Astronautical Unit is. (150,000,000 KM)

* Explain how ships enter warp at 75% speed, and the lines shown on the throttle control.

* Have each student warp to a predetermined destination.

* Have each student do a "Show Info" on their ship to look up their warp speed attribute.
