Today, Elmer and I have worked on making the rules easier to access. We won't give an extensive changelog, but will highlight the results.

Jedi Rules

We started with cleaning up and consolidating the Jedi Combat rules. These are now in a single page dedicated to combat, with a hopefully clearer flow to the rules that mimics the flow of combat.

Scanning?! Surveying!

We put on our 'Termen Polizei' hats for the change of 'Scanning' to 'Surveying'. As the name of the thing is Survey Fleets, we thought it logical to name their action Surveying. This removes collisions with military scanning, and makes clear the specific goal of 'scanning'.

Military Rules

After lunch, we tackled the military rules.

Due to Game Questions: Combat rules, we had an idea of what was wrong.

We started off with making sure the difference between jedi and fleets is clear: Jedi Combat versus Fleet Battle

Of course, the reorganization of the military rules brought a number of pages with it: Battle Formations, and Fleet Battle. And it led to the creation of the Fleet Battle Actions page.

Before you criticise the duplication of content: this allows easier tweaking of military battle rules seperate from jedi combat rules!

The main issue of the questions thread was the use of Fleet Operations. To clarify that, we first called them Strategic Fleet Operations, and we reorganized them to make sense with regard to the activity levels. There are slight changes in how some of the Strategic Fleet Operations work with respect to the old versions.

And finally, we did our best to remove ambiguity in the terminology of the military rules, and we added a navbox for the military rules.

Let us hear what you think!

Looks good. I really did not like having to constantly change to another page.
Furthermore, maybe also put our nice combat report on the Jedi combat page.
(Is there a fleet combat report?)

I don't think the actual report should go in the rules. But it should be right at home in the guides!

If I have time this weekend, I might look into updating the combat guide.

Stuiter: To answer your question: No there is no fleet battle report, as up to this moment no fleet battles have been roleplayed yet.
