890 Op idea

[wafflesnbiscuits]

With the 890 in evocati and coming “soon,” I thought of this as an op to try out. Any feedback is welcome.

Kill the VIP

2 teams
2 ships - 890 jump and any other ship that can carry a boarding party(Valkyrie, cutlass, hoplite, etc)

Scenario - boarding ship has interdicted and disabled the 890, in order to assassinate VIP

890 is “disabled” for one full minute(ship is unlocked, no use of turrets, ship weapons, or opening the hangar doors. Regular ship door/elevator use is fine)

A “round leader” will always be on the defender team and is responsible for starting the timer at the start of the round.(honor system)

After one minute elapses, the hangar can be opened and an escape attempt can be made via the 85x. At this point, the boarding ship and 890 are weapons free.

Defenders win if -
1)all attacker’s are killed and VIP is alive
2)85x quantums away to anywhere with VIP on board and alive

Attackers win if -
VIP is killed on 890 or killed by destroying 85x with VIP on board

Gear/loadouts -

Defenders wear test yellow. No snipers, no grenades, no railguns.

VIP wears only full yellow flight suit, has a pistol.

Attackers in black. No snipers, no grenades, no railguns.

Each army has a different color set of armor to differentiate between the 2.

Attackers in purple? Something like that?

Usally we ask if everyone could buy a black/yellow and a black only armor

I have defenders in test yellow and attackers in black separated in the description, but we had discussed a more noticeable color other than black for opfor in previous op action, so it’s easier to make people out.

Not sure if printimus is referring to that or not.

An interesting idea, but I would take it a bit further. Have there be a ship battle 1st. Let the attackers come with their ships, & let the 890J have an escort of ships. The attackers win if they kill the VIP in any way. The defenders win if they kill all of the attackers. Let each the teams be of even numbers & decide which ships / crew to use for their objective. At the start of the battle, the 890J will be unlocked, but the attackers have to be able to get close enough to it to enter on their own. Perhaps if the 890J's shields all drop, then the captain will power it down for 5 min to give the attackers the window they earned.

Edit : Those that are killed, have to sit out the rest of the event.

I like this a lot. Perhaps this should be the “large group” option. Maybe if we have 10 or more per team?

Sounds like a winning plan to me

 

[LoicFarris]

This could definitely be interesting! So maybe instead of hot pink, how about Storm-Trooper white? I dunno, I've seen some armor suits in all white that look sharp. That said, all black for this op may not be a bad idea as virtually all the walls on the 890 are white if memory serves?

Sound like a cool idea could be a fun get together,

You gonna provide the 890j's ?

Alas, I have no 890.

 

[Wolfy]

You can use my 890 if you need one.

COOL! The idea sound like it could be great fun, expensive fun but fun never the less.

There, now we have a mission, awesome :D

 

[Sraika]

neat :p

 

[Talonsbane]

If you pit 2 8901J's against each other, you could call it the "Battle of the Billion Baffooneries". It would involve all of the crew that aren't required to steer the ships to be on the front decks as both ships speed towards each other in a game of ultimate chicken.

There is definitely a lot of potential here with some fun pvp!
