== What are organized events? ==
+
== Overview ==
 +
'''Organized Events''' are the pinnacle of the ''Holdfast'' experience. These are large-scale, coordinated battles that bring together Regiments and public players across four global regions: '''North America (NA)''', '''Europe (EU)''', '''Australia (AU)''', and '''Asia (AS)'''.
  
−
Large-scale, community-run battles bringing regiments and public players together across global regions (NA, EU, AU, AS).
+
While public servers offer continuous action, organized events provide a structured, tactical environment where every volley and maneuver is governed by community-led administration and historical discipline.
  
−
Public event announcements are posted on the Event Noticeboard in the Official Holdfast Discord.
+
== Event Classifications ==
 +
The ''Holdfast'' community hosts several specialized event types, each requiring different tactical approaches:

== How do I participate? ==
+
== Participation Pathways ==
−
* '''Join a regiment''': Private events allocate slots by regiment and generally don't allow non-regimental players. Regiments handle their own rosters, sign-ups, and rule enforcement.
+
Participation depends on whether the event is classified as '''Public''' or '''Private'''.
−
* '''Public events''': Anyone can join public events by checking the Event Noticeboard in the Official Holdfast Discord.
 
−
** Players are not required to sign up individually, but large regiments are encouraged to do so to help admins with balancing and special allocations.
 
−
** Regiment leaders may request the "Events Enjoyer – Regiment" tag in the Holdfast Official Discord. See: [https://discord.com/channels/306195621373542400/613784269713834034 Enlistment].
 
−
* '''Be on time and ready''': Arrive early and load the server when announced.
 
  
−
== Public vs Private Events ==
+
* '''Public Events:''' Open to all players. Announcements are posted on the '''Event Noticeboard''' in the Official Holdfast Discord. While individual sign-ups aren't required, regiments are encouraged to register their attendance to assist admins with team balancing.
−
; Public Events
+
* '''Private Events:''' These are restricted to registered '''Regiments'''. Recruitment and slot allocation are managed internally by unit leaders. Solo players wishing to join these high-intensity battles are encouraged to [[Crews_%26_Regiments|Enlist in a Regiment]].
−
: Run by developer-approved server admins under the official developer rules. Mods are not used in public events.
+
* '''Leadership Tags:''' Regiment leaders should request the "Events Enjoyer – Regiment" role in the Official Discord to receive priority updates on server status and sign-up windows.
−
; Private Events
 
−
: Organized by regiments or communities with their own admins, rules, and optional mod use. These can vary widely in style and format.
 
  
−
== What is required to host an event? ==
+
== Public vs. Private Infrastructure ==
−
Communities can host official or unofficial events. Hosts need to plan for a minimum of:
+
<table class="wikitable" style="width:100%">
−
* '''Server''' – Dedicated and stable with the correct configuration.
+
  <tr>
−
* '''Staff''' – Admins; clear escalation for rule breaches.
+
    <th style="width:30%">Feature</th>
−
* '''Ruleset''' – Brief, readable, and clearly posted.
+
    <th>Public Events</th>
−
* '''Sign-ups''' – Regiment headcounts and special unit requests (e.g., Artillery).
+
    <th>Private Events</th>
−
* '''Comms & Briefs''' – Clearly communicating server details, start time, and mod requirements.
+
  </tr>
−
* '''After-Action''' – Screenshots, results, feedback form.
+
  <tr>
 +
    <td><b>Administration</b></td>
 +
    <td>Developer-approved admins.</td>
 +
    <td>Community/Regiment staff.</td>
 +
  </tr>
 +
  <tr>
 +
    <td><b>Ruleset</b></td>
 +
    <td>Standardized AGS developer rules.</td>
 +
    <td>Custom community rules (e.g., Hardcore).</td>
 +
  </tr>
 +
  <tr>
 +
    <td><b>Maps & Content</b></td>
 +
    <td>Official game maps only.</td>
 +
    <td>Optional use of Workshop Mods & Maps.</td>
 +
  </tr>
 +
  <tr>
 +
    <td><b>Platform</b></td>
 +
    <td>Full Cross-play supported.</td>
 +
    <td>Often PC-only if Mods are utilized.</td>
 +
  </tr>
 +
</table>
 +
 
 +
== Hosting & Administrative Requirements ==
 +
Communities wishing to host officially sanctioned events must ensure the following logistics are satisfied:
 +
* '''Infrastructure:''' A dedicated, high-tick-rate server with stable configuration.
 +
* '''Staffing:''' A minimum of two active admins with a clear escalation policy for rule breaches.
 +
* '''Documentation:''' A concise, publicly accessible ruleset and sign-up sheet for headcounts.
 +
* '''Logistics:''' Advanced notice of any Workshop IDs for required mods to prevent connection delays.
 +
* '''Post-Event:''' Capturing results, screenshots, and gathering feedback for future balance adjustments.
  
 
== Player Expectations ==
 
== Player Expectations ==
−
* Follow host rules and your officer's commands.
+
To ensure a high-quality experience for all participants, players are expected to adhere to the following standards:
−
* Keep communications clear (no "ear-spam").
+
* '''Tactical Discipline:''' Follow your Officer’s commands and the host’s specific rules without delay.
−
* Do not grief, teamkill, or deliberately exploit rules.
+
* '''Comms Etiquette:''' Maintain clear voice channels; excessive noise ("ear-spam") is grounds for removal.
−
* Report issues to admins after the current round is over.
+
* '''Professionalism:''' Griefing, teamkilling, or exploiting mechanics is strictly prohibited. Report administrative issues after the round concludes to avoid disrupting the flow of battle.
−
 
 
−
== Are mods or custom maps used? ==
 
−
* Yes, but only in Private Events.
 
−
* Players must ensure they are subscribed to and have downloaded all required Workshop content before the start time.
 
−
* Hosts must publish a list of mods and their build IDs in advance.
