Rules of Space Travel
- Ship Orientation
- All ships will orient themselves to the same Z axis as the capital ship.
- The largest ship will be considered the capital ship when meeting with smaller craft.
- When two ships of the same size meet, the ship with the commander in higher standing will be considered the captial ship.
- If the commanders are of the same standing, the ship with the earlier launch date will be the capital ship.
- Exception: If the ships are working in conjuction on the same mission, the ship with the commander in command of the mission is the capital ship regardless of standing.
