It is advised to be part of a federation, preferably one that is strong near you, that way you will be part of a group of players that share benefits and can help each other, either by sharing experience either by defend or attack together.
Also you will have visibility in the universe beyond your own means. In every star system where any of your mates has a fleet or a colony, you have visibility as well even if your scanners do not cover this system.
Federations also create communities where you can meet and interact with other players throughout the world.
Federations have a structure, and players may get authorities by the federation master or be assigned with duties. It is up to any federation to set up its own hierarchy though.
The player who initially creates the federation automatically gets Master status.
There are 5 different levels for a member in a federation :
  • Members : have full access to general board and read access to Orders board of the federation, and share visibility in universe with other members, they are also imuune to attacks form their mates.
  • Officers : they have additionaly access (read and write) to Officers and Orders board, can edit federation profile page, delete posts from the board and post and visibility on members online status.
  • Diplomats : additionally to Officers they can change political status towards other federations.
  • Recruiters : additionally to Officers they can invite members to the federation.
  • Masters : adiitional to everything above, they can also change member's levels and boot players from the federation.
Each Federation has its own board, where only its members have access. The board is split in 4 tabs:
