Reinforcements

Rules

1. You can have up to 6 stacks of reinforcement ships depending on availability.
2 Stacks from Federation members.
4 Stacks from Vassal empires.

2. Only ships from your empire's outpost will be sent as reinforcement.

3. You can only build two different stacks of ships in your Outpost.

4. Only stacks which is equal or less than 50% of your empire's PR will be available as your empire's reinforcement.

5. 2 stacks from Federation members and 4 stacks from Vassals will be randomly selected by the server from available stacks for reinforcement.


How Reinforcement works?

Let's say your empire's PR is 1 million.

One of your systems is attacked. (Reinforcements will work on all your systems)

You are in a federation that has 7 members and only 3 of them have ships in their outpost.


The ships in their out post are:

A: 300,000 PR stack (i) & 750,000 PR stack (ii)
B: 500,000 PR stack (iii)
C: 450,000 PR stack (iv)


Therefore the server will randomly select two stacks from stack i, iii & iv.


You have 13 vassals and only 2 of them have ships in their outpost.

D: 30,000 PR stack (v)
E: 1,500,000 PR stack (vi) & 450,000 PR stack (vii)


Since you're suppose to get 4 stacks of reinforcement from your vassals and only two stacks are available to you, both stack v and vii will be send to you as reinforcement.



Tips & Suggestion

Bare in mind that the reinforcement fleets will help other players to defend their system. Building fodlers or 'easily killed' ships are pointless. Starbases are good ships to build in the Outpost. This is because you can build a high Power Rating of Starbases in short time and building them won't get you out of Damage Protection.

It's always suggested that good cooperation from empires are needed. When an empire is out of DP and online, the empire should disband all ships in the outpost and build offensive ships to attack. While empires which are in Damage Protection build starbases to protect the Not Protected empire.

It's advised to build reinforcement ships in your Outpost before you log off. This way your empire will save more credits and have high PR to receive reinforcement while providing sufficient reinforcement for your Federation Members and Lords.
