MAIN AND ALTERNATE CHARACTERS

What is my Main character?:
Usually the character ("toon") you play the most. Your "Main" character is the one that will be checked for meeting fleet activity requirements in-game. You designate a "Main" toon when you join. If you are in 12th Honor Guard division this will be a KDF toon.

What are Alts?:
Alts are any characters other than your designated "Main".

THE 12TH'S MAIN. RESERVES. & KDF FLEETS

12th Fleet:
The in-game 12th fleet is our principle Federation fleet (aka "Main fleet"). All active members may under our current rules keep their Main toon and any alts they wish in Main fleet.

12th Fleet Reserves:
The 12th Fleet Reserves (aka "Reserves") was originally created for members to keep their Federation alts because we were at, or near, the 500 member cap in Main fleet. Now Reserves is primarily for the toons of Veterans Division members, though many members also still have alts in it. There is currently no limit on the number of characters you are permitted to keep in this fleet.

12th Honor Guard:
The 12th Honor Guard is our KDF fleet. It houses the KDF alts of all 12th Fleet members and is the "main" fleet for purposes of activity requirements for members of our 12th Honor Guard division. There is currently no limit on the number of characters you are permitted to keep in this fleet.

NOTE: Because there is an in-game cap of 500 fleet members, the rules on how many alts (if any) you may keep in the above fleets are subject to change if we get close to the cap for that fleet.

SWITCHING MAINS AND FLEETS

Main Toon Switch:
If you begin to play one of your alts more frequently than your main you may wish to designate a different character as your main. Simply let your division command know so they can update their roster and know which character to track for activity.

Fleet Switch:
You may wish to move a character between Main and Reserves, for things such as Fleet Store or Fleet Bank access. Simply ask a member with the in-game rank of captain or higher to assist you with this. Veterans can only switch to Main fleet temporarily for shopping purposes. Members of other divisions can choose to keep a toon in either fleet, except they must return their designated main toon to Main fleet.
