Rules for Teams, Battles, Etc.

[Ram Jet]

Team Registration Rules

• All characters are required to be a part of a team before role playing.
  
• When registering a team an emblem as an image is absolutely required. Sorry, but it's needed to make things move more easily. It can be some thing simple and it doesn't have to be provided right away, but it will be needed for battles.
  
• All teams start at F rank. Your team can advance in rank by either beating 3 teams of the same rank as your team or 1 team of a higher rank but you can only advance 1 rank at a time.
  
• Team leaders are responsible for approving any people that want to join their team.

Battle Rules

• A battle between teams must be started by one team challenging another team. Any member of a team may make the challenge but they will need their team leader's approval first.
  
• A team that is challenged can deny the challenge and no battle will occur, but this requires the team leader's approval of the team that was challenged.
  
• The battle type as well as the turf played on will be based on the team that was challenged. So if you challenge an E rank team, you'll be competing in E Rank: Hurdles. And the battle would normally take place on the challenged team's turf, unless that team agrees to do otherwise. (See Rank Battles below)
  
• Both teams in a battle must bet something in the battle, either their turf, some of their parts (such as regalia or special mechanisms in a team member's ATs), or their team emblem. Each team can bet different things, one team can bet parts and the other can bet their turf unless the challenger specifically says what they challenge the other team for.
  
• Battles involving parts or turf can be posted in either the Parts War forum or the Turf Battles forum, as long as it's relevant to that thread. Any battle involving an emblem MUST be posted under the Emblem Battle thread.
  
• If a team loses a battle, they lose whatever they had bet to the other team. Note: If a team bets their emblem and loses, that team must immediately break up and can no longer battle under that name and emblem, though they can make a new team with a different emblem.
  
• If a team breaks up all the turf they controlled becomes neutral territory that is open for any team to claim. First team to post in the map thread saying that they want the territory gets it. First come, first serve.

B Rank: Disc
A points game of taking a Frisbee into the enemy goal a certain number of times. Usually it's played with 5 people on each team but only one person on each team is selected and only that person can score the points for their team by that person holding the Frisbee while in the enemy goal zone, first to 10 points wins.

These rules can be changed as the teams see fit but it has to be whoever gets the balloon first wins.

A Rank Special: Regalia Battle
Can only be fought between 2 A Rank teams. This is the only battle where something wouldn't wagered by either team, instead the winning team gets a certain Regalia that both teams agree on before the fight. This battle only applies to Regalia that aren't taken or owned by anyone else and a character can only use the Regalia for the road they're on, so it is recommended that the teams agree upon a Regalia that someone on either of their teams could use. (Note: If this isn't possible then the prize can change depending on which team wins, but any prize Regalia has to be decided before the fight) The battle can be any type of rank battle between F and A as the teams see fit.

All Regalia battles require Admin approval before they can happen, send an Admin the following information to get an approval:

• Teams fighting
  
• Regalia wanted for prize
  
• Type of fight (F-A)

Note: Regalia can be won if you win against a team that bet their Regalia but this is the only way to win Regalia that don't have an owner yet.
