Topic: Perpetuum D-Day!
Incoming Transmission:
Greetings fellow Perp.
You have been chosen for a secret mission. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is as follows: On the day of the 26th May at exactly 10 p.m. (22:00) you will have to invade the island of Yuraoin Ro heading southwest of the nothern teleporter to get to our staging point.
The operation will start from here, where you will be heading back (south from the teleporter) to get past the enemy defenses.
Good luck and Godspeed
This message will self destruct in 10 seconds.

Remedy Inc. is inviting for a big server-wide event on the test server.
We have set up (and are still setting up) a defensive perimeter at our testing outpost on the Yuraoin Ro island. And it wants to be tested under real battle circumstances.
We invite all players to join and attack the perimeter.
We have set up a stageing outpost very close to the Yuraoin Ro North Teleport. This one is also quite close to the defensive grit so your walking distancees will be minimal. Make sure to bind yourself to the outpost once you have arrived. Bring every bot and gear you can find for any strategy you can imagine, this is the test server after all, so you won’t lose anything. Once you die you will respawn in the outpost in the bot you just died in with full fitting. So no need bring the same stuff multiple times.
Time and Space:
This is going to happen at Saturday the 26th at 10:00 pm (22:00) server time.
I hope this time will work out for all time zones so that everybody has a chance to participate. (late evening for europe, afternoon for US, and morning for east-asia.)
Entrance to the perimeter will be directly south to the Yuraion Ro-north tp leading up a ramp.
The goal:
This is to test the defensive capabilities/resilience of defensive and economical structures. So we hope to get some decent information how good these defensive structures are. The layout is far from perfect but we have taken quite a great effort to set up something that might not be too easy to overcome. For that we hope that you will show up in great numbers and show what you are made of.
We want you to try different strategies to overcome this defense. So do not go into a killing spree if one thing was successful... you will get to shoot the stuff... but be patient. If one thing succeeds you might want to try another...
The ruleset:
No terraforming:
This is to test the structures. So no terraforming in the process. We build a wall around the outpost but its not the goal to simply dig a small hole in it and kill the reactors. This is just to prevent some ppl to do a run-by. This is not what we want to test and we all know how the outcome would be if you do so... for a real outpost the back side will surely look different.
No fancy stuff:
We want to test under real circumstances. So no Praetorians, Vanguards or Mercenary bots. No T4+ and/or T4P fittings. Bring heavys, bring MK2, bring T4, or whatever you think that will bring you the victory. Just bring stuff you are able to field in PvP on the live server now or in the “near” future.
Change in Plans: Bring fancy stuff as well... but not for the first waves... the defense is quite strong. so maybe this will or can be used later... (if you like)
Attackers vs. Defenders:
Remedy will field a small defense squad to support the defense. Because we want as many people as possible on the attacking side we may field some fancy stuff just to keep the numbers on the defenders side as low as possible. Depending on the size of the attacking force we might invite some ppl to the defenders side.

Please spread the word!
This is a D-Day event (at least almost). You will look at a lot of turrets, so come prepared and in masses.
Best regards from Remedy.
