When Do server ship battles happen?
Ship battles will be announced on our discord and forums a week prior to the event. The next event may also be shown in /shipbattle and /motd.
How do I get to the Arena?
You can use /warp event to get to the staging area, and /warp shipbattle to go inside the arena to view or battle.
How long does it last?
The battle will last 1 hour, plus 10 minutes if there is a draw.
- 10 minute preparation period so all ships are ready
- 20 minutes of fighting
- 10 minute break to replenish resources and make hasty repairs
- 20 minutes of fighting
- End of fighting. If several ships are still left, 10 extra minutes of 'sudden death'
- Winner is announced
What are the rules?
A list of battle and building rules can be found on the ship battle rules page.
Breaking the rules will result in disqualification and/or being jailed.
This is an official server event, ruining it will be punished.
I'm not the right rank to sail the big ships can I play?
Yes you can play! There is a custom temporary rank you can enable called the Navigator rank, this can be enabled from the Ship battle coordinator.
How do I get a ship?
You have 4 options:
- Build a ship in the arena docks
- Sail a ship to the arena
- Borrow a ship from the arena (To be organized beforehand)
- Use one of the Duplicated ships from GodsDead
If a ship is spawned in, you may modify it as you please. It must not leave the arena. We can supply a Brig, Galleon, or Indiaman. These ships have been purpose-built for the ship battles, and are fully stocked. This service is free.
How do I enter a ship and crew?
Ship captains will fill out a form that will be sent to staff listing the captain, name of their team, and all of the teammates. The first three to be filled out will be participating; the last three will be back-ups and first in line for the next battle.
What about the Arena?
You can get to the arena with /warp event before a battle. It is located at x: y:100 z:
PvP is OFF before the battle, so people can build.
The arena has a water depth of roughly 10 blocks. There are some rocks near the edges of the arena for smaller ships to seek cover.
Spectators have their own separate area to view the battle from. Spectators are advised to stay in this area.
There is a small shop that sells resources for the battle.
How do you win?
The winner is the last ship that is able to sail, when all other ships are out.
You are 'out' if:
- Your ship sinks
- Your ship can no longer move
- The crew abandons the ship
- The captain surrenders
- Or if you are disqualified
If your ship has not moved in a few minutes and looks heavily damaged, you will be given 3 minutes to get it moving or risk being disqualified.
If several ships can still fight after 1 hour, then there will be a 10 minute period of 'sudden-death'. If you are killed during this time, you may not return to your ship. The ship with the most remaining crew wins.
Is there a prize?
Yes. The prizes are handed to the captain of the ship, for them to divide it among the crew as they wish.
1st Place - 10 Gold blocks + Trophy head
2nd - 5 Gold blocks + Trophy head
3rd - 3 Gold blocks + Trophy head
Other
The ship battles test your ability to use ships, aim and use cannons, and work in a team. A small, well organized crew in a small ship can easily win against a large, unorganized crew in a big ship.
