Introduction:
Welcome to the naval event CAPTURE THE ISLAND.
It is a boat vs boat and close combat focused CTF mode, where you try to steal the enemy flag from their island and bring it to yours.
You have to be careful on the water because a contested fortified island in the middle of the map is able to eliminate everybody who dares to cross the tropical lake.
Teamwork is the key for victory, because there are three seperate war zones:

Your own island:
The enemy will constantly try to invade your island, the objects are to defend your flag and the allied flag bearer who brings the victory to your team.

The artillery island:
It is all about control and precision here. A lose will result in supressive fire on your island and boats, endangering your operation.
There are no other artillery weapons on the map, better you get your hands on these.


The enemy island:
Organisation is very important, the enemy will defend their flag to the very end and a conquer of the island isnt even the end of your task.
After you captured the flag, the team has to defend the flag bearer all the way back to your own flag. But dont be fooled, the enemy flag is worth nothing, when your own flag isnt in your hands!



Rules:

Social:
1. Racism may result in a perm ban.
2. Dont be toxic in chat, you wont get MMR here...
3. Keep the teamchat clear for communication, you will need it.
4. No trolling.
5. No cheating/hacking.


Gameplay:
1. All units allowed except (Sapper (maybe allowed in the progess of the event)), Flag Bearer, Musician, Rocketeer, Artillery Train.
2. No forced classes, play what you need.
3. The spawn can be leaved by small boats (minimum 5 soldiers) or big ships (minimum 10 soldiers)
4. Dont bring a flag outside of the Flag Area (green), which is defined by the buoys (red circle)
5. Team with the most captured flags after 30/60 minutes wins. This depends on how many flags will be captured, we will announce it early enough in the purple chat.




Rules may change, but we will make sure signed up teams will notice it!

Interesting event idea, we'd certainly like to give it a go. A question about the spawns however, due to the limited amount of large and small boats, it could happen that all of them are destroyed rather quickly into the round meaning a team can't leave their spawns. Is this intentional, or do you plan to 'spam' more boats on the spawns maybe?

And a rule suggestion:
At the beginning of the CTF round, assign a 60 or 120 second limit where no one can leave the spawn using boats. Allow the regiments and groups to distribute themselves into the boats, and then everyone sets off on an admin's signal and the round begins.

Best of Luck to our good friends Mauri and Wolpi! Still trying too convince to rikkert to get involved here!!!!
So let’s just ignore someone like Maskman who knows next to nothing about leading and the capabilities of regiments performing well in a linebattle type of event.
To state that anyone on a “good day could beat the 77y/15thYR” is just a meme of its own, if that was the case why don't you beat the 77y or 15thYR then!?
