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. If possible, prepare PvP ships and move jump-clones as appropriate.
DEFCON 2
War Preparations
War has been declared and is in the 24 hour warm-up period. Final preparations should be made, missions completed or declined, jump-clones and PvP ships prepared.
DEFCON 1

War is live and in-progress, and you can be fired upon anywhere in space. Please see the Wartime Policy for full details.
