The Server Rules
The most up to date rules can be found here.
The server rules help create an enjoyable atmosphere for all and punish users who interfere with the enjoyment of other players or adversely affect the community and server. Laws and Guidance exist in game to help establish some order in the game and give players something to work from.
We recommend that you read Lore Portal and relevant SOPs for your faction, especially if you wish to play essential roles heavy on lore.
