PvP Arena

As this name indicates, this game mode is about players fighting each other.

General principles

• In each battle there are two teams
• Bots can be put on both teams in a battle.
• There cannot be a battle with only bots
• If there are not enough players to battle each other, but enough to start a match with players all on one side, then a Co-op battle (players versus Bots) will commence instead.

Skirmish game modes

Each game mode has a set of conditions and rules.

Domination	Deplete all of the enemy control points	3 neutral beacons are located between both spawn points Both teams start with 750 control points In order to decrease the points of the enemy team, you need to capture neutral or enemy beacons and hold them. Destroying enemy ships also decreases the enemys points If your team holds a beacon for a certain time, it will spawn guard drones. Max. 4 per beacon A beacon can only be captured when all 4 guard drones are destroyed The more beacons your team holds, the faster the enemy control points decrease Each destroyed ship reduces the amount of points from the enemy team by 10 Unlimted respawn	Deplete all of the enemy control points If the time runs up, the team with highest amount of points wins
Combat Recon	Destroy the enemy captain and all other players afterwards	From each team a captain will be selected randomly The captain gets a temporary damage boost for the battle Both captains can see all ships. They can also see ships hiding behind obstacles, ships being invisible and ships being out of radar range.

When your captain dies, you will be able to fly the current ship until it gets destroyed. Afterwards you won't respawn anymore in the battle	The team that first kills the enemy captain and all remaining players afterwards.

If the time runs out, the team which destroyed the most stations wins. If both teams have the same amount of stations remaining, the team with more kills wins the battle
Team battle	Deplete the enemy reinforcement points	Each team has a certain number of reinforcements points, depending on the size of the teams Each team spawns on different places of the battlefield, but each team still has its own side (you need to regroup fast after spawning) Reinforcements are depleted by destroying enemy ships You can reuse a ship if it has been destroyed once	Capture all enemy beacons or destroy all enemy ships Deplete the enemy reinforcement points If the time runs out, the team with more reinforcement points left wins.
