Each day during scheduled maintenance any existing fleet is automatically disbanded.  If you log in and search for fleets but are unable to find the Operation: Fortress in fleet finder, feel free to create one.  Please ensure that there is only one Operation: Fortress fleet running at any given time.

The actual formation of the fleet is straightforward. Right click on your name in any chat window and select ''“Form fleet with . . .”''.  When the fleet window opens, proceed to set up additional squads and wings, at least 2 wings with 5 squads each, although it doesn't hurt to just set up 5 wings with 5 squads each. This way there will always be enough individual squads for the separate groups. Make sure to activate free move so people can set up their own squads as desired.

** Create one wing voor PvE, for people that want to mine or do missions
** Change squads in the PvP wing(s) to: Tackle, DD, Ewar/Logi
** Make sure to activate free move so people can set up their own squads as desired.


The next step is to create a fleet finder advert.  In the Fleet window, go to the tabs labeled ''“Fleet Finder > My Advert”'' and click the bottom button labeled ''“Create Advert”''.  Change the fleet name to ''“Operation Fortress”'' so that it can easily be found your fellow Unistas. In the description include at minimum a link to [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=58485&start=0 http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=58485&start=0] and [http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=58427 http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=58427], the two threads created by Director Emeritus Korr’Tanas. In the ''“Open Fleet to”'' section make sure to only allow corporation and alliance members and check ''“Hide details”''. If you need help with any of this please ask in Chat.E-Uni or Q&A.E-uni.

You do not need any ingame skills for any of this.  The [[Skills:Leadership|Leadership]] skill is solely used for the passing of fleet buffs to squad members, not the actual formation of the fleet.
