Battle Week
Conquest Week (CW) – Star Wars Battlefront 2
Updated Rules
1. Player Awards will be OFF!
2. PC and dedicated servers that have the bug where setting the ticks at 200 but show 300 ticks in game, must be set to 140 so the ticks show up as 210 to start. This is to unsure every match has the same starting point for the stat system. Those dedicated servers that show 200 ticks when correctly set to 200 will remain unchanged.

No Bots Option For Matches
There is now an option to allow matches with zero bots under certain conditions.
1.You may challenge any club to a match with zero bots regardless of the number of players.
2.Both sides must agree to no bots as this is a matter of choice and personal prefrence.
3.If an agreement is not reached for playing without bots,then being the fact that you initiated a challenge of no bots and were wiling to play,you must then honor a match and play with bots as per regular match set up rules.
4.If you challenge a club to no bots and they refuse to play without bots but are willing to play with bots,then you must respect thier right to want bots and play with bots.You may not refuse a match simply because you made a challenge for no bots and it was declined.
Basically this rule is to allow those who want to play no bots to be able to do so but does not change the overall match set ups for people who still want bots and to play by normal match set ups.Please be advised that playing in matches without bots may actually hurt your overall score as its likely less points will be recieved playing no bots.
Gameplay Rules
1. All games can meet in either Ecliptical Realms Battle Room, X-Fire, Ventrilo, or Clubs TeamSpeak servers.
2. All Squads/Clans Must be Registered with Ecliptical Realms (ER): http://www.eclipticalrealms.com/ . Club commanders (Captains) must have all participating members registered
with ER and affiliated with their Club including the Captain approving themselves.
3. All players must be affiliated with a ER registered Squad/Clan.Thier ingame name and tags must match thier club affiliation on ER.
4. Squad/Clan and Player Membership should be verified prior to each Battle event.
5. Must agree on maps before Battle start. Each Team Must play both sides (faction) of both maps, or forfeit will result.
6. Each team will host one side of the map decided; unless both teams agreed prior to start of the Battle. If a team refuses to play on another teams server, this is considered a violation of fair play and considered a forfeit (See Forfeit Rule below).
7. Game play authorized (team configuration) can be 1 verses 1 up to 12 verses 12. No uneven games will be permitted/authorized or reported.
8. Maps and sides will be agreed upon prior to game host launching game.
9. Host – Loads only the Map(s) agreed on.
· Each Team Plays both Factions of the map for the Game to qualify as completed Battle. Each Game result will be reported as individual
games played.
10. All participants are responsible for taking screenshots of Scores/recording Kills, Deaths and remaining Reinforcements for both teams (sides). This is very valuable in the case of a dispute. Disputed matches where there are no screenshots for proof will be deleted. (Reporter(s) are responsible for assigning the correct point values to kills, deaths, and winning team as described in the event information and report the number of AI left of winning team)
11. Winning teams will report Battle Results of the two games played unless agreed upon by other parties in the match.
12.Making false accusations ingames will be viewed as harrassment and result in a possible ban from an event.If a screenshot is received about a player making accusations during a match it will be viewed as interference.The team with the player making the accusations will be given an automatic forfeit of the match and action taken against the individual.Bottom line is keep quiet during a match and play.If a player makes accusations do not get in a argument with them,simply take screenshots and report it to a mod.
13.There is no rule preventing subbing in matches or changing the players who are playing,if you agree to play a match 2v2 or higher then it shouldnt matter if a club has to change players last minute or after a round if one player cant play.Bottom line is if you agrre to play,be prepared to play and stop trying to force set team lineups for matches.If a player leaves a match or refuses to play after a match has started because the other team has to use a sub,then the team whos players left and refused to play will be charged with a forfeit.
14.Please be aware that if a club outside the USA plays and wants to play then you should obligate them by agreeing to play one match on a USA server and a 2nd match on thier own server to average out the ping differences.This is only fair and will allow for more EUro and other worldwide players to participate more.
Blackballing Rules
1.NO club/player should intentionally engage in a practice of telling thier members not to play certain clubs/players.If there are issues between clubs/players resulting in two sides not wanting to play each other,they should be reported to mods so to prevent escalation of problems.
2.Blackballing may be percieved differently by different people.If you are challenged to a match and have an excuse for refusing but are then seen entering a match soon afterwards against someone else this may be percieved as blackballing.However if you just finished a match against a club and they turn around an challenge you again and you refuse,this is not blackballing since you honored the initial challenge and already played.
3.All incidents of blackballing should be reported to a mod or gaming director or Maelstrom.Please provide specific information along with any proof such as screenshots,TS recordings etc...
Punishment for Blakballing:
1st Offense a severe warning.
2nd Offense a 30 day ban from SWBFII events and ER TS.
3rd Offense a permanet ban from SWBFII events and ER TS.
Please think twice before engaging in blackballing and please remind your own club members of the consequences.
Player Disconnects During Game Event
If player(s) drop prior to either team reaching the 185 tick mark, the match must be restarted. Any drops occurring after the 185 tick mark must continue until the match is completed.
If a player disconnects from the game after the 185 tick mark, it will be the players responsibility
to reconnect to the game as fast as possible. Even though all points are
lost when disconnects occur; players returning will contribute to their team
score. If the player does not return this person will still be recorded when game results are submitted, with all Zeros (0s).
Unless the Host Game Crashes, game will continue to the end.
Forfeit Reporting
A forfeit cannot be deemed unless the situation is brought before a moderator or game director of Ecliptical Realms.When reporting the forfeit please write in the game description details of the forfeit.
Teams that are deemed in forfeiture will receive the following:
1. 0 points
2. 0 kills
3. 10 deaths
4. 0 Team Bonus
Teams that are the victims of forfeiture will received the following:
1. 20 points
2. 20 kills
3. 10 deaths
4. 50 Team Bonus
Each of these are to be reported for each player on each side in the match.
Unlisted Player Guidelines
Unlisted Player is a tool to help people report a match in the event people failed to check rosters for opponents to verify a persons on a roster.These matches however are not meant to be left unedited.You have the ability to edit a match within 48 hrs. if you reported the match.
1.The person reporting the match must make an attempt to contact the club whos player participated but is not on the roster.Also contact a moderator explaining the match #,player involved and their club name.
2.If the club whos player played and was not on the their roster does not get the unlisted player on their roster within 48 hrs so the person who submitted can edit the match,then the clubs captain that failed to get the unlisted player on their roster will end up having the match reported to the clubs captains name.
3.If the club captain already was involved in the match,then another random member of that club may be chosen by the editing moderator to replace the unlisted player with.
We hope this will encourage all clubs to make sure they keep thier rosters in order and make sure any players who play for your club are on the roster so the matches can be reported properly without needing a moderator to fix them.
Player Misconduct
Please advised that player misconduct is not permitted and could lead to you as player being frozen from the event and also clubs may be held responsible if multiple offenses keep occurring from the same club.
Unacceptable behavior includes:
1.Teamspeak violations-swearing,jumping into clans channels while their in game channel.
2.Unsportsmanlike conduct during matches such as offensive in game chat or harassment.
3.Intentionally joining servers with the purpose to disrupt an ongoing match.
Basically use common sense,everything cant be listed so just because it does not appear in this listing does not mean you may not be held accountable for misconduct.
I would also like to stress,that SWBFII has a team of mods,situations arising during events should be addressed to and handled by this mod team.Clubs who try and use a mod from a different gaming area to handle situations in this section will be percieved as trying to manipulate a situation to thier advantage and subject to being removed from the event and future events.
