FC VG Cribsheet

This article should be cleaned up or improved, as of November 2024.
The reason is: Needs some improvement/additions for use by learning Incursion FCs

Introduction

This tool is intended for Fleet Commanders who are already familiar with their role. It is a memory aid and is not intended as a learning tool. If you are learning about incursions, be sure to start with Preparing for Incursions and study all of the pages in the Preparations list. If you are an aspiring FC, then study ALL of the Incursion Links pages. Doing the various incursion roles (Roles in Incursions) is a recommended learning process and provides a first hand perspective of the various tasks.

Initial Prep

1. Are all of the key task roles filled? (DD, Logi, DB, Scout, OGB, Ore runner, picket, sniper, tagger, WL mgr, WC, & FC)
2. Wait List (WL) manager. Make Fleet Boss so they can update the MOTD, invite fleet members, and assign FC, WC & SC.
3. Is WL manager satisfied with fits (so are you?).
4. Does everyone have sufficient ammo?
5. Does everyone have Lyavite?
6. Undock, meet at (warp to) --------------

9. Check OGB and command Boosts, redo if necessary.
   1. Wing commander boost (fleet warper).

10. Strategic Cruisers & Vindicators tasked to frigates. DB also if not enough for task. Otherwise DB does major ships in reverse priority.
11. Logis sort out links.
12. MOTD updated.
13. Everyone broadcast "need shields". Everyone broadcast "in position".
