March 22, 20168 yr Question - are we in the northern or southern hemisphere of this world? Northern hemisphere, if it works like our real world You can deduct this from here: first post, third paragraph below the map. (Le Bellan sits right in the tropic zone, Tiberia - situated just north of Le Bellan - not)
March 22, 20168 yr Sorry if I've missed it again. Is there an MCRA form for March? Nearly the end of the month, so don't wanna miss the milkrun :p

March 22, 20168 yr Thanks, I should have been able to figure that out. Now I know which slope to put vineyards on. Waw. That's why I love you so much, EB! People thinking about wich side of the hill to put their vineyards on...
March 22, 20168 yr Waw. That's why I love you so much, EB! People thinking about wich side of the hill to put their vineyards on... I agree. Although I see an easy work around. He could just photograph it from another angle :P
March 22, 20168 yr However, upgrading to the correct licence for a ship (up-licencing) is allowed. In order to upgrade a ship which has been already licenced you would need to state when you first post the build your intention of building the licence up to (fill in the blank). Are there any new details on the ship license form for this.....or do I need to state this in one of the entry blanks? If so, which one.....
March 22, 20168 yr I agree. Although I see an easy work around. He could just photograph it from another angle :P Well, yeah. :P But I needed to know for the description, and which settlement it's going to.
March 22, 20168 yr Are there any new details on the ship license form for this.....or do I need to state this in one of the entry blanks? If so, which one..... There is nothing you need to do on the license form, but when you initially post the vessel, we ask you to indicate the maximum rating on the build. Further, when upgrading, we might ask for a freebuild explaining the change. (To ensure IC consistency)
March 23, 20168 yr Are there any new details on the ship license form for this.....or do I need to state this in one of the entry blanks? If so, which one..... As Bregir said, I meant just to state what licence you were looking for when you originally posted the build on EB (or edit the post and add later it if your not sure, but before/when you licence it, not afterwards)
March 23, 20168 yr As Bregir said, I meant just to state what licence you were looking for when you originally posted the build on EB (or edit the post and add later it if your not sure, but before/when you licence it, not afterwards) Ok.....so my original build specified 5T, and I have submitted license for 3T2 to start....so I assume I have done it correctly...
March 23, 20168 yr Ok.....so my original build specified 5T, and I have submitted license for 3T2 to start....so I assume I have done it correctly... Yes, that is right
March 23, 20168 yr A ship of class A with 0 cargo can still make profit in a "Bounty Seekers" run - is this correct?
March 24, 20168 yr Attention freebuilders - the approval period for 3+ freebuilds has been shortened from 3 weeks to 2 weeks to get dbs in your hands sooner (because few if any approvals were being granted that far out). This means earnings from builds posted as late as the 17th of this month will be awarded at the end of the month. Other changes are being discussed as a part of the accounting solution so stay tuned. The rules topics will be updated eventually to reflect the changes.
March 24, 20168 yr Author A ship of class A with 0 cargo can still make profit in a "Bounty Seekers" run - is this correct? Nope, they do not have cargo space to hold the bounty they are reaping.
March 25, 20168 yr Question about licensing a 'sister ship'. I won't have time to build a replacement ship for the one that sank last month but I have the funds to relicense a sister ship. There isn't really an option on the ship licensing form to state this and there is no link needed to the build on that form either. Is there a way to make it clear I don't just license a ship without a MOC?
March 25, 20168 yr Author You would use the same link to the moc that you used originally. If it is your free ship, you would mark it as such on the form.
March 25, 20168 yr You would use the same link to the moc that you used originally. If it is your free ship, you would mark it as such on the form. Yes, but there is nowhere to put a link in the ship license form.
March 25, 20168 yr Author Yes, but there is nowhere to put a link in the ship license form. there is now. I can't believe we went this long without somebody saying something!
March 27, 20168 yr Question regarding personal fleet limits and costs. Say I already have 3 ships. 1. I capture a new ship (say base value 100). If I add it into my fleet as the 4th ship, do I need to pay anything? If yes, how much? 2. If I don't add it to my fleet as the 4th ship, can I hold it in reserve indefinitely? 3. If I unlicence my 3rd ship (say base value 50), and I want to relicence it again at another time, how much do I need to pay?

If I unlicence my 3rd ship (say base value 50), and I want to relicence it again at another time, how much do I need to pay? 1) Yes, 50 % of the license. Otherwise, it would be possible to circumvent the rules. I.e. the capture only cover the basic licensing costs. 2) I don't see why not. Alternatively, you could sell it, or have it condemned by the prize court. 3) The full license. Ska stated somewhere that unlicensing is an option, but there is no refund. Instead, you could try selling the licensed vessel to another player. I am pretty sure this is correct, by leadership may correct me.
March 27, 20168 yr So that means to say that for 1) 50% of the licence is 25 DB 3) 100% of the licence is 25 DB. <- But if I stupidly decide I want it back as my 4th ship, I pay 37.5 DB?

This makes no sense to me. If the license cost is 100 db's and it is your fourth vessel, you will have to pay an extra 50 dbs. If it is a capture, the first 100 is already paid, so to put it into your fleet, you will have to pay 50 dbs.

If it is a capture, the first 100 is already paid, so to put it into your fleet, you will have to pay 50 dbs. The base cost is 100DB. 50 is for construction and materials. The other 50 is for the licence paid to the crown. That was the rationale, wasn't it? How is it that one has to pay the construction again for a ship that has already been built?
