Rules of Engagement
Faction Attacks & Cooldowns.
When you put another faction member in death mode, or the intent to kill. Attacks could also include the following.
- Factions who are on probation are allowed to brawl or fight another faction while on probation. This is a test to see if you can roleplay correctly and see how you build roleplay with other factions.
- Factions who go to another faction's turf provoking with the intent to harm, either that being lethal or non-lethal such as brawling, shooting, robbing, etc.. . are all prime examples of a faction attack.
- Factions who are still on probation can’t issue the first attack, but if you have previous interaction with the same faction. You are allowed to then issue the first move when attacking. (BRAWLING ONLY)
- Factions should not be killed on first interaction, there must be a significant amount of roleplay before needing CK or PK another faction member. For example, If a crip faction have had several brawls with a rival blood faction and the roleplay between each faction have built enough tension by all means playball. YOU MUST HAVE 7 INTERACTIONS BEFORE SHOOTING.
- Faction Leaders are required to speak with rival faction members and agree on the “timing” that both factions are on such as robbing, or killing even after you pass the 5 interaction count. Some factions like to extend the roleplay to a respectful manner.
- Factions must log all attack and defense logs between other factions in their discord server. It must be updated regularly with evidence of the interaction between the two factions if not your faction could be closed.
