[h2]Hi Captains![/h2]

Congratulations to the 2024 Yearly Tournament winning Fleets, with December’s winners now in the Hall of Fame!

  • Silver – Trek Federation
  • Bronze – Veritas Vikings


1st place winners will be working with our design team to create a custom reward. The Top 3 Fleets have also won a limited edition Achievement and Pin to show off in-game:

This year, every player who ends the year in one of the top 100 Fleets will receive a free, limited-edition Beacon Skin! These designs are colorfully animated and will not be accessible in the future.

The winning Fleet for each division as determined by the yearly rankings will receive a Crowned version for 1st rank. Division D will receive the normal version for all ranks.



[hr][/hr]
This year’s prizes also include new Achievements and Pins for our Top 100 ranking players of 2024.

Every player in the top 100 will receive a limited edition Achievement and in-game Pin. Ranks 1-3 will reward Gold, Silver, or Bronze – with a commemorative blue version for all other ranking players.

It’s great to see so many new faces, and last year’s contenders climbing the ranks. Keep an eye out for these Captains, you may want to steer clear!

Please note: This year’s list includes 107 players, with 17 players sharing rank 91.

[h3]Community Spotlight: Superweapon Variants[/h3]

Several new Superweapon Loadout options became available in the V0.999.15 update released earlier. These options help mitigate issues with Faction-locked Superweapon Rooms, trading their strength for smaller Room variants.

Each of the new Rooms is classified under a ‘Set’. Different sets cannot be combined with one another. For example, you cannot combine a Large set with a Medium or Small set.


Small Sets allow up to 3 Rooms on your Ship Hull:








Medium Sets allow up to 2 Rooms on your Ship Hull:








We will be closely monitoring the performance of each new Superweapon variant. Large Superweapons are unchanged at this time.
