The Nova Fleet Dynamics Starmade Triathlon! (Competition)

I'm really sick of this game, but I might participate this event.

Lets be honest, 200k blocks is by no means a capital ship.

lol depends on someone's naming conventions. 200k keeps those of us with computers that are on their way out from being lag killed.

And that's why. I personally consider 200k a subcapital, but that seems to be right around the limit where we can have everyone with slow computers still able to play.

Your rockhopper is like 160k blocks, and you said that's a frigate. that's what confused me.

Yeah, we consider it a subcapital.

What about people that don't have ships to submit for the fighter phase? And how does the first phase work? Does everybody get a capital ship?

We'd recommend that you all make your own ships and fighters, but if need be we can provide some stock ones.

I could be interested in joining with a Miniturised version of my Flagship...

Also, Turrets. How many (If at all) are we allowed on Fighters and on the "Capitals"?
Docked entity restrictions?

When we were originally discussing it, we decided on no turrets for fighters. No limitations on the large ship battle besides "don't make something that causes a lot of lag."

I see. ANY docked entities at all, or just no AI? Although, who even has room for docked entities on a fighter, heh... Actually, might be too small for what I plan, but its good to know if it will be allowed or not

 

[Napther]

Apologies for the spot of Spam, but, Its not listed in the rules, My ships tend to be heavy on the docked entities.
Are the docked entities INCLUDED in the final count for blocks?
IE, Will a ship be disqualified if it contains 200,000 blocks on the mothership and then has docked extras?
or is it a 200000-ish block mothership with a "Reasonable" docked extras amount?

It's 200k including docked entities. Depending on the ship, you may have to shave off some stuff to fit it in for the competition.
