Sometimes games are ended but still need some finishing touches. To avoid endless rake-into-the-rigging battles, a new surrender option could be inserted.

A player with immobilized ships could surrender without loosing his points, the opposing side gets the points for the surrendering ships awarded. This would only be allowed if all players agree.


Questions:
  • If the player is the only surviver of that side; surrendering will be easier. What if he has teammates? Can he surrender or not?

  • Since we don't have target selection, can those ships be shot at? (In Basic game the opponent can still shoot at a ship that was abandoned.)

  • The player is in one of those 16 players game. His ship has lost all the riggings (or close to) but remain afloat. The current battle are far away and there is no way the player can move or drift there. If he surrenders, he will mess up the score of his team. Can we give an option to retire with honor? Kind of like Blue Max.


  • Hey Hubert,

    you need to read my post before answering.
    He surrenders without loosing his points. That means his teammates get the points awarded.

    A surrendered ship can never be fired at. That would be cruel, wouldn't it? Abandoned ships are different than surrendered ships (for whatever reason). Don't mix them up.

    Retire with honor was what I had in mind.
