EEK-TNG
Mission Specifications for SFC3 Developed by el-Karnak |
|
INTRODUCTION
The missions of EEK (Evil, Evil Karnak) are designed to enforce some naval
doctrine of meritocracy in the dynaverse realms of SFC3.
In order to compete in a big engagement like a fleet action you have to earn
your way by either improving your combat skills and/or improving your teamwork
skills through co-op play. If you are a newbie you will find the grunt work
missions like Convoy Escort duty easy and patrols harder. If you are a veteran
that likes to fly solo then you will compete well in the patrols and do OK
in the 3v3 missions. When you are an expert player you can handle the glory
assignments such as Squadron and Fleet Actions.
These mission are separated into two categories: stand-alone Player vs. AI
only missions that can appear in any hex, and Player vs. a target AI or player
that one engages on the dyna.
MISSION SPECIFICATIONS MATRICES
The following mission statistics are diplayed in
ascending order of difficulty, from top to bottom.
Stand-alone Player vs. AI mission (playable in any hex), aka SP-type. These mission will appear as a separate entry from AIs and players in the dyna hex's mission selector screen.

Most of the Hail-type missions strip away the AI for PvP play. For example, an Ambush Action including 2 allied and an enemy player will have all the AI were stripped away to leave a 2v1 player battle. Patrol missions with two opposing Human players will strip the AI down to a straight 1v1.
In the event of a PvP (ie. Player vs. Player) mission where there are exactly the same number of Human players and ships on each side, the winner of this PvP mission will receive double the normal mission PP Payout for forcing the enemy to leave and triple the normal mission PP payout for destroying/capturing the enemy. The player that was forced to disengaged will receive a Devastating Defeat mission result. For any PvP mission where a Human player is outnumbered by enemy Human players, irregardless of the number of ships involved, and the out-numbered Human player wins the missions, quadruple the normal mission PP payout will be awarded.
ENEMY SHIP DESTROYED BONUSES
There will be bonus PP payouts for every enemy ship the player destroys in
the mission played.
The payout schedule is as follows:
|
Enemy Ship Class Destroyed |
Bonus PP Awarded |
Freighter |
225 |
Frigate |
300 |
Destroyer |
450 |
Light Cruiser |
750 |
Heavy Cruiser |

| Heavy Battle-cruiser |

Dreadnought |

TOTAL WAR VARIANTS

no causing any race to have no possible allies (ie. total war variants), the
following missions have the appropriate variant versions (designated with
"_tw" suffix tags):
- Joint Ops. Patrol
- Combined Arms Patrol
- Counter-Punch Patrol
- Squadron Action
- Fleet Action
MISSION DIFFICULTY MODIFIERS
When a player flies a ship of the following classes:
- HEAVY_BATTLECRUISER
- DREADNOUGHT
- BATTLESHIP
An extra enemy AI ship is generated in the following missions:
- Deep Space Patrol
- Homeland Defence Patrol
- Enemy Sweep Patrol
- Joint Ops. Patrol
For all the missions, when a player flies a Battleship class ship, the enemy AI will often have a Dreadnought to Battleship class ranged and rarely a Heavy Battle-cruiser to Battleship class ranged enemy AI ship generated in-mission.
