Crusader VIP Protection

A defending team will protect a VIP located on a crusader platform while an attacking team attempts to assassinate the target. Each team can be made up of 11 people, including VIP, commander, and drop ship captain. 11 people are required for the defending team, and 11 for the attacking team, 1 dropship captain (myself).

Rule set

• No time limit
• No finishing off incapacitated opponents
• Defending team has 5 minutes to land at the location from their drop and setup a defense. After which, the attacking team will deploy.
• The attacking team can deploy to any location on the platform, and drop any number of people (multiple drops are possible), and will be aware of the defending teams general location.
• If 3 defenders die (not incap) during a round, they have the option to regroup on their carrier and deploy anywhere on the platform to provide additional support to other defending teammates.
• The commander of the attacking team can request a "UAV" per round, in which the dropship captain will reveal the defending teams locations.

Restrictions

• VIP will be wearing civilian clothing/undersuit. VIP is allowed a PDW. VIP will be drawn randomly.
• No heavy weapons are allowed except for the rail gun.
• No grenades.

Ships needed

• 2x Carrack or 890
• 1 dropship (Valk, Prowler, Cutlass)

Suggestion/additional requirements

• Bring additional sets of equipment with you on your teams carrier to make new rounds quick to start up, and will give the defending team supplies when they respawn as reinforcements. Bring 2-3 sets, bodies can be looted between rounds, but this is just incase bodies fall through the floor/de-spawn.

Where to meet

We will meet and leave from Seraphim station at 8pm EST. Please have any equipment you are bringing already at station and be spawned before departure.

Happy new year Luminis Memebers!

For those lurking in this new forum that don't know me yet, my name is Moss. I'm one of our resident event planners and media managers.

Events

Along with Arcadia's coordination from bringing in new players, I will be making a big push to have large scale events once a month, potentially twice later on in the year. For the first event this month, we will be doing an exciting VIP assassination event between a defending and attacking team. More details will follow next week, but currently, I'm planning for the event to take place on January 27th starting at 9pm EST. We will run this event twice for the first two months, just as a way to test how we will be running larger scale events with 20+ participants, including those from other organizations. So I'm expecting great coordination from those of you participating so we can kick the ass of our visitors.

Here is a sneak peak of our mission location

Media

As for Media, I want to make a concerted effort for media for the org. We have Nyda's Daymar Rally team(s), and events once a month, or more as we get better at them, increase membership and whatnot. I am basically planning on not participating in the events themselves but just focusing on running and filming them for our media. So those of you who are recording gameplay of events and whatnot are certainly encouraged to share your footage with me to go into productions and media that I will be putting a big focus on this year. Not a requirement at all, but if you could split audio between the game and any comms (your own voice and discord audio) that would be greatly increase the quality of video I'll be able to put out. You will of course be credited (which can help your own channels grow) and it'll be a great way to grow our organization as well as increase membership. I will be figuring out how distribution of large files like gameplay footage would even be shared and distributed, but if anyone has any idea's of an easy way to do that please let me know.

Star Citizen: Icarus

Lastly, I know some of you have heard of this Machinima that I was looking to produce. Some of you already know the story of what I wanted to do, and with Pyro right around the corner there isn't really a better time to re-open that can of worms. I'm going to be focusing on the event for this month, and ironing out details with Arcadia on getting other orgs to fill up player slots we need, but starting again in February, production of Star Citizen: Icarus will resume! I will create a separate signup form for those who wish to help with production of it, of which there will of course be further details, so make sure to lookout for that the first couple weeks of February.

I hope everyone has had a great year, and enjoy your night. Here's to Luminis and 2024 everyone, cheers!

I just got logged in lol. I'm so down for the rally! Nyda let us know what we need. There are a few different classes from my understanding. I'm interested whichever class/division uses the hover vehicles, as for me, that would be the most challenging to keep yourself alive lol.
