Ranks and Advancement

A team is a group of riders who have joined together under one banner to accomplish a common goal. These goals vary from team to team. Some may wish to conquer the city, others may simply find enjoyment from being a common collective. This unity under a shared dream pushes members to stretch their wings towards the future. This sense of camaraderie is just for show however. Both competitive teams and their members will often find their beliefs and values tested as they try their luck against others in full scale Parts Wars for guts and glory, and most importantly - a shot at what lies in Trophaeum Tower. The stakes differ from challenge to challenge, ranging from a wager over parts to turf to even your team's right to exist. Because of this the advancement system recognizes those teams gain ranks separate from riders based not on the skill level of their riders but upon the victories they have achieved and the territories they have claimed as their own.

The various ranks of teams are as follows;
F-Class: The Base Rank of all Teams
E-Class: One Territory Claimed |and/or| One Parts War Victory
D-Class: Six Territories Claimed |and/or| Two Parts War Victories
C-Class: Twelve Territories Claimed |and/or| Four Parts War Victories
B-Class: Eighteen Territories Claimed |and/or| Six Parts War Victories
A-Class: Twenty-four Territories Claimed |and/or| Eight Parts War Victories
S-Class: Thirty Territories Claimed |and/or| Ten Parts War Victories
Note: A Team Base or Tuner Shop does not count towards "Claimed Territories."

On top of being able to claim prestige based on these ranks, teams also gain bonuses while battling on their claimed territory. Not only does a challenged team get to pick the battle or Parts War type, they gain additional stats while on their turf. The stats must be applied the first post as battle. If not, you do not get to use them.

F Rank: 0 Bonus Stats Spread as you choose for the duration of the battle
E Rank: 5 Bonus Stats Spread as you choose for the duration of the battle
D Rank: 10 Bonus Stats Spread as you choose for the duration of the battle
C Rank: 15 Bonus Stats Spread as you choose for the duration of the battle
B Rank: 20 Bonus Stats Spread as you choose for the duration of the battle
A Rank: 25 Bonus Stats Spread as you choose for the duration of the battle
S Rank: 30 Bonus Stats Spread as you choose for the duration of the battle

Furthermore, for every member you have on your team participating in a Parts War you gain additional Stat Points:

1 Teammate: +5 SP
2 Teammates: +10 SP
3 Teammates: +15 SP

In addition to all the previous information there are a few extra rules that must be placed upon teams;
- No team may have any number of active members on it at any time.
- No team may have more than one [1] Rider controlled by the same member on it at any time.
- A team must have at least two members in order to be official. Once you meet the criteria of being an official team, put [Official] in the thread title, so that a mod knows to look at it for approval.
- If a team is challenged they must accept. The team that is challenged gets to pick the Parts War type and location. Should a team not respond to a challenge within [3] days the challenge is forfeited and the challenger wins the ante.
- If a team bets their emblem on a battle then the other team must meet the ante or forfeit the Parts War. Losing your emblem is the only forced way a team may disband.
- A challenging team may not challenge someone more than two ranks lower than them for an emblem in a Parts War.

Last of all is how to make your team. Simply post a thread here in the Team Forum and put the team's name in the subject line. Make sure to have a series of posts including the following information; Team Name, Motto, Members, Battles, Allies, Enemies, Rank, Territory, and whatever else you feel is necessary. The things listed are the only mandatory ones. And remember: a Team needs at least two [2] members before a mod will consider it official. Once you meet all the criteria put [Official] in the thread title, so a mod knows to look it over for approval.

There are no statistical or transferable properties to being a sub team. The two teams are merely "allies.

Due note, when you go to claim territory, that territory may already be claimed. Due to the fact to hide cover and the increasing police traffic, the gangs now use spray tags and graphite instead of the usual emblems causing storm riders to confuse the tags for regular art. If an NPC team gets an emblem placed on their turf, then a parts war will ensue. This parts war can take place in a thunder dome or on the streets but they are gangs. You know what the answer going to be. Still, the possibility is out there. All battles between RPC teams and NPC teams grant SP like battling a normal team would. HOWEVER, keep in mind these NPC teams are powerful. Until one is battled, no one knows who they are, what roads are on the team, and what type of equipment they have. If you want to take that risk for the rest of the storm riding world to reveal this info, that's fine but remember is this info worth the consequences considering that NPC teams aren't stagnant. They may possibly grow in power as well. So, if a battle shows they all C ranks, they could be 1-2 of them B ranks within few days or all b ranks within weeks. Teams throughout New York vary in ranks. However, out of town NPC teams, tends to yield the higher end of the ranking scale.



Notes: Winning against NPC teams gains the RPC team the territory that that NPC team holds If challenge NPC team for Emblem, please keep in mind your emblem is on the line as well. When challenging an NPC team, quote a mod then wait..
