Combats will be scheduled for wilderness maps near to the Home Town of the team that's playing "at home" in each combat. The "away" team will need to travel.


So i assume i am not seeing any difference in home towns as all opponents are somerset as me


Yes, the Div IV teams are all based in SS.

2. Will the server somehow be able to limit the use of characters based on the division limits or is this an honor based system?


Any characters that are too high-skilled will not be spawned into the event; similarly any vehicles that take the squad above the CR limit, and any cars belonging to anyone other than the team members.


Ive got a maxed ganger who is maxed at the limit. If he actually has a little bit more than the maximum skills and its rounded down, does the game consider this?

Also have these events a time limit or are they fight to the death or surrender, hoping for a time limit to keep down those long no contact events that may happen !!

Are reloads allowed as per a normal scout PvP?

Will characters that have skills besides Weapons skills above the division Max be excluded from spawning?

The max players per squad is 3. Is there a Max to the number of vehicles allowed per squad? 

Once you set the squad per event, can the squad be changed again?

lol. Good points on the number of cars. Hahahah. I can see a team of 20 raccoons or something equally silly. That's a lot of guns though! And a lot of targets to take out too.

Seriously, that the leagues are filled up with AIs made this league a joke imo. Whats the deal to fight against AIs? They are stupid like a brick.. Are they anyway scaled for this league? Something like 1vs2 odds?

Looking forward to FF bragging about looting some kind of rare loot during the PvP against AI. :cyclops:

No time limit at the moment.. could be changed if it seems necessary after a few tests. I could easily imagine one team demo'ing just one car of the opposition and then disengaging.. they'd be able to win that way. I think subtleties in strategy will become apparent..

Reloads as normal yes, it's just a regular squad.

Only the weapons skills are tested against the division limit. You can field an 800 skill scout if you like  ;)

No max vehicles, only max total CR.

Once the squad is set, you can change it yes.

I don't think so zothen.  Firstly, only some divisions have a lot of AI. Secondly, everyone plays the same number of AI opponents so winning the league against the humans in it remains competitive. Thirdly, the AI will get relegated and more player teams will hopefully enter in at the bottom and gradually fill out the divisions.

BTW I see no-one has run any of these combats early, yet.. the first round of combats are now well within the 10-day limit so could be run anytime.

Im planning on it myself Sam, just had to move all of my guys down to BL to have enough to make it my hometown... now moving em back to SS (plus about 7 extra) because everyones hometown in the leagues is SS except for Me and FF I believe. So much for wanting to leave SS  :rolleyes:

It would have been much easier if the leagues filled up with players, but not enough signed up. Where is your team Zothen?
