USS Sulaco? Come in, USS Sulaco! Can you hear me? Come in, USS Sulaco! ... Hang in there, Sulaco! Help is on the way!
The frontiers of space can be a dangerous place: pirates, raiders and rebels frequently attack colonies and lone ships wandering in space. The military sometimes can't reach those places (or sometimes, those people want to be VERY far away from the military), for solving those problems, many mercenary groups have formed to defend those people... or at least fight for the ones that need a gun for hire.
Overview
If the marines are outgunned by the aliens or any other potential threat, the commander can send a distress call to anybody in the nearby space vicinity, if heard by a nearby ship a Response Team will be signalled as hearing the signal for help, from this a Response Team will dock with the Sulaco. The game randomly dictates which of the six Response Teams will be chosen for deployment, however these Response Teams can also be chosen by an admin to either help get the round moving or to deal with an in game event (Such as the Corporate Liaison requesting help).
To join a Response Team you need to set your "Toggle Special Role Candidacy" for Response Team to enabled and then when a Response Team message pops up go to the IC tab and click on "Join Response Team".
