sc4qt_faqFrequently Asked Question:
1.You are limited to a single squadron for the entire tournament.
1A. Your Re-Entry Replacement squadron does not count against this limit.
2.The Tournament format is single elimination. (Unless you get a re-entry/replacement slot.)
3. All ships are fully refitted as appropriate. (Since there are no PF's then there is no need for mech links etc.) Unless otherwise indicated.
4. If you have trouble Identifying the ships indicated then email me at [email protected]
5. Other than spreading out duplicate races match ups are randomly assigned.
6. UIM is not considered a refit under the applicable Refit rule. Ships that have UIM as Standard equipment as listed on their SSD have UIM. (ForExample the F5C/L has 1xStandard UIM.) Ships that have UIM listed as a refit, (the Lyran DW is a prime example) have to purchase the UIM with the Commanders Options.
7. Commanders Options (and drone loadouts) may be changed between rounds.
8. The Commanders options and drone loadout are under rules S3.26 and S8.19 respectively.
9. Drone Speeds are already factored into your purchased squadron. (IE: All drones are Medium or Fast and are Type 1's. [Fast are Restricted Avaialbility 25% or 50% Kzinti.])
10. Warp Booster Packs must be purchased with your CO's.
11. Orion Option mount packages are set for the tournament. IE You take 3DW and choose the Photon package you can only select your option mounts from that package.) You do get to customize your mounts from inside the particular package after you see who/what your opponent will be in that round of the tournament.
12.NWO Question. The Paravian DW types are the only NWO ships in this tourney. With CL#28 the Paravians have a choice of Trac, Tran, Cargo, Lab for 0pt NWO mounts.
13 You do have to pay CO's for any weapons placed in an option mount. This includes drone speed upgrades. BUT you get to subtract the cost of the rack itself from the CO cost to purchase drone upgrades since the option mounts races are the only ones not to have the cost already factored in. (You use std drone percentages.)
IE (Upgrading 6 I's from a B Rack) 6IS>6IM=3 CO -1CO (B Rack Cost per Annex8B). = 2CO.
