Archive:IVY Defense Status

Ivy League uses the 'Defence Condition' system of readiness. Standard definitions are:

DEFCON 5

Normal Operations

This is the condition used to designate normal peace-time operations for the alliance.

DEFCON 4

Hostile Activity

High levels of hostile activity have been noted against IVY members. High probability of can flipping and losses to suicides.

DEFCON 3

Increased Readiness

Intel suggests a high probability of war. Prepare PvP ships and move jump-clones as appropriate.

DEFCON 2

War Preparations or Active Faildec

War has been declared and is in the 24 hour warm-up period or an active war has been deemed a Faildec. For new wars, final preparations should be made, missions completed or declined, jump-clones and PvP ships prepared. Wartime Standard Operating Procedures do not apply, but caution should be used.

DEFCON 1

War in Progress

War is live and in-progress, and you can be fired upon anywhere in space. Wartime Standard Operating Procedures are in effect.
