I guess fair play isn't something we're all too keen on.

Tell that to your guy who in one post jumped in with 9 star destroyers and, in the same post, proceeded to surround myself and Solan, initiate interdictors, land troops on the planet, and start shooting at us. And then in his second post tried to dictate my actions and say he destroyed one of my ships.
In fact, were it not for that guy, Aleksander probably wouldn't have even joined.
*tips hat*

I have discussed this with him privately via Discord. I do apologize for the misunderstanding, but it'd much appreciated if you could just drop him a line rather than responding with an even greater fleet.

I didn't invite Aleksander, lol. He just decided to do it. The Ascendancy only has an alliance with the Mando's, that's why I came. I was perfectly content to 1v1 Morzas, though Solan's arrival pretty much sealed her fate.

I can cut the fleet down a bit in the sense of fair play. And its more than 25K honestly. I will remove portions of it and slim it down as a sign of good faith.

That would be much appreciated. I've never seen fleets of this size in a rebellion or invasion.

And teach him to post what he intends to do, and not dictate what he does to people. His opening post was just ludicrous.

Hey I don't mean to bug you, but [member="Jaster of Clan Awaud"] also jumped in with a fleet. That's why I thought it would be funny, not because your an incompetent writer. We have a nearly 10k Fleet with nearly 35 Squadrons.
I'll let you revise your numbers if you want, but I'm mainly goin to focus on the Vizsla Clan since this is a Rebellion. Please PM me if there's anything I can do to spice up your story.

[member="Ignus"] I'm sorry for dictating, I messaged you in the discord chat apologizing, I had no clue I did something wrong because I've never been fleeting against players before.

That goes to everyone. Thank you.

I'm having fun in my corner of the thread, but man... The cluster-kark that's happening in orbit around Mandalore is hilarious. Between the "timely arrival" of random fleets from the other side of the galaxy, the sudden spam-posts of huge fleets, and the number of people popping up for dramatic first broadcasts/introductions... It's a clown car of spaceships over Mandalore right now.
OOC though... Guys. No need to be quite so serious. If the new writer is doing something wrong, talk to him politely about it. [member="Ignus"], if you're that upset by it, you can always just leave the thread or take your starships to Wayland or Concord Dawn. We've already got an absurd number of starships flying around Mandalore and there's no reason for you to get super invested in the outcome here anyway.
[member="Kalius Aegrus"], 10km to 50km of ships per side is the average for invasions on Chaos. Personally, I think it's most fun if people restrict themselves to 1-3 main ships and 2-6 light escorts / escort squadrons. For the longest time, 1x 10km fleet per writer was a bit of a "standard" in threads.

Yeah, that's usually the rule of thumb I've followed when fleeting on Chaos.

Noone told me what I did wrong until now, I am still new to this site, thus is my first engagement with another player, I went from having fun to getting warned off by the dominion and having [member="Ignus"] get pissed at me for a reason I didn't understand, I would like a rule guide or something for fleeting. I ts. Very challenging for new players especially since me just going at it as a normal dom against pirates was obviously wrong.

I just enjoy writing larger fleets because I enjoy the greater amount of strategic nonsense I can attempt to pull off.

If you never want or need help understanding fleeting go ahead and contact me or [member="Jorus Merrill"] he was one of the alpha fleeters on the site as far as I recall.

It operates under the same principles as all roleplay does. You can post an action, but you can't dictate the actions/response of your opponent. It also operated under the principles of realism. If you jump into a system, after people have already arrived, you're going to arrive behind them, or off somewhere else in the system. They're not just going to allow you to instantly surround them. It's not even plausible. You could say you jumped into the system after, and started shooting at their rear end, pinching them between you and your other allied fleet. And you can say that you fired, but you can't say you hit.
It's advisable that if you've never done something before, talk to people that have before you do it. They'll give you tips and tricks.

The Ascendancy's alliance is with the Mandalorians, and when I joined the thread, the only fleet was at Mandalore. I was the second real fleet to join besides the Dominions. I am not going to instant jump somewhere else. That's absurd. I tailored my fleet based on being similar to the attacking fleet. Equal and proportional response.
As for things now, there's literally no non-"allied" fleet at Mandalore now.

Here's a good tip for fleeting.
1 Movement
1 Defensive/Utility Action
1 Offensive Action
1 Dialog
Per post.
So... Post one would be arriving (movement), assessing sensors/radar/environment (utility), preparing to launch fighters (offensive), and opening dialog to introduce yourself or threaten your opponent.
Post two would be moving your fleet towards or away from a target or area, initiating Interdiction and launching fighters, maybe opening fire with long range weapons now, and continuing to talk to someone.
Think of each post as a single move in chess, or a single round of actions in D&D, or a single turn for a table-top game (like Warhammer 40k).
Also, you typically want to announce that you are going to try something, then let people respond. Like... Post that you are powering up Interdiction, then let your opponent respond, then post that you activate it. Post that you shoot at someone, let them respond saying what damage they took (if any), and then you respond with your observations of their actions and your next action.
