When you join a fleet you need to reference this MOTD for all of the important information. * Our VOIP system is linked under the __Comms Information__ heading, there is also a join URL, click this to open our Teamspeak3 address for the first time. * Next is our current system, if this has been left blank it should indicate we are in the system that we were docked in. - If you are unsure ask in fleet. * The next section of text and links has links to our official newbie guide, our anchoring position guides and our MTAC guide. * The following section is our Fleet Roles. (AAA, VVV, DDD etc) each role has a name next to it, this is the person doing that role. If a role is blank let the FC know, or volunteer to do it yourself - we are happy to teach you. * Following that is the logi and drone channels. If your a logi, please join the appropriate channel. <wrap em>Remember to leave that your logi channel when you leave fleet.</wrap> * The TVP and Boosters line includes our Insurance corporation.

If you want more coverage you need to pay the 15,000,000isk fee ==== Taking the Right Gate ==== Never take a gate without the FC telling you the gate is green. If you are with the fleet and you are told to take the gate then do. Please note a gate status is valid for five seconds only! However if you are not with the fleet then you need to know how to join them safely: * Check your MOTD for the FC/Warp To pilot * Warp to them * when you land at the acceleration gate try warping to the FC again - check that you gete the error message "you cannot warp there because natural phenomena is disrupting the warp" * If you get this message, align down the gate by double clicking in space, if you did not get this message you will enter warp to the FC. * Ask for gate status. Green means take the gate | Red means wait and ask again in a minute. ==== Anchor up ==== <WRAP group> <WRAP column 28%> __Vindicators__ * Get out to your targets and web them in a TPPH and NRF * Once your targets are almost dead (three or four battle ships remaining) anchor on the VVV by keeping her/him at a range of 5km. * <wrap em>In a TCRC your anchor is the tower!</wrap> </WRAP> <WRAP column 28%> __Snipers__ * Anchor on the AAA by keeping her/him at range 5km. * <wrap em>In TCRC sit DO NOT anchor on the AAA, keep the tower at your optimal range.</wrap> </WRAP> <WRAP column 28%> __Logi__ * <wrap em>Your anchor is always the AAA, keep them at range by orbiting at 10km with your afterburner on always!</wrap> </WRAP> </WRAP> ==== Deploy and Assign Drones ==== * Vindicators - All Heavy Drones to the HHH * Snipers - All Heavy/Medium Drones to the SSS * All Light Drones to the DDD ==== Shoot your Targets! ==== <WRAP group> <WRAP half column> __Vindicators__ Shoot targets 1-9, X-Z </WRAP> <WRAP half column> __Snipers__ Shoot targets A-I </WRAP> </WRAP> * <wrap em>Never shoot a tag J</wrap> * In TCRCs tag 'X' is a Scram and should not be killed until the FC tells you to! * Tag 'X' MAM indicate a scram - if there tag 'X's up and the FC calls to kill scarms, kill the tag 'X's **Welcome to TVP, please check out other sections of this wiki for tips and tricks.
