*'''Forming a fleet can take a while.'''<br>Usually around 15 to 30 minutes depending on how well organized the command is. The FC needs to figure out how to set up his or her wings and squads, and make sure the entire fleet gets gang bonuses, and that all squad leaders know their responsibilities, send out scouts and analyze reports. <br> <br> | *'''Forming a fleet can take a while.'''<br>Usually around 15 to 30 minutes depending on how well organized the command is.

*'''The Fleet Commander will ask for different roles in the ''Alliance ''channel.''' <br> They'll probably start with Wing Commanders, Squad Commanders, and Scouts. If you're a rookie, forget about filling any of those roles. Different FCs all have their own way of doing invites, most will ask to X up. This means you get to type "X Role Hull" when the FC asks for the role you want to fill. <br>For example, when the FC asks for tacklers to X up, and your role is tackler and you are in a frigate, you would type: ''X T Frig''.<br>If you're really new, you might only have a damage frigate to offer. If you want to contribute during war, spending from a few hours to a day or two to train tackling or EW is a good idea. Some FCs may not accept DD frigates during war. <br> <br> | *'''The Fleet Commander will ask for different roles in the ''Alliance ''channel.''' <br> They'll probably start with Wing Commanders, Squad Commanders, and Scouts.
