[Check Here First!] So you've created an empire...

Welcome to Neveron, and just as importantly, welcome to the Neveron Forums. This is one of the best places to get answers to question you want to ask.
Some basic tips to help you get started:
Tutorials
Make sure to go through the Neveron Tutorials to help you get started. If you are 'too smart' for tutorials, at least browse the posts on the forums to make sure you arn't missing anything important.
Time Investment
It takes a lot of time to do anything in Neveron, especially compared to other webgames. There are no resets. This has its pluses and its minuses. We believe the pluses far outway the minuses. Also...Ten Neveron days (or Nevdays) equal one "Real Day", ten Neveron years (Nevyears) equal one "Real Year" and ten Neveron hours (Nevhours) equal one "Real Hour". As you can see, the general conversion is that ten Neveron time units equal one real time unit. Keep this in mind.
Backups
Start more than one empire. Though you can only have up to five, it is a smart idea to keep more than one empire on hand, either just in case, or to diversify your portfolio, so to speak. It is entirely possible to have your empire destroyed at any time.
Factions
Look for a 'faction' to join. Low level empires are the most avidly sought by factions, as they offer the best long term potential at the lowest entrance costs. Factions offer repair facilities, new friends and allies, and some extra security on a strife-torn world.
Politics
Neveron is as much a game of politics as it is of war. There are shifting alliances between factions and groups, some of which have existed for years. Be careful of whom you offend and who you befriend.
Battletech
Neveron is based on Battletech, using the 3025 rules. It does not precisely duplicate Battletech. Many units are different. Many rules are different. Many units are completely new. Several 'high tech' units exist, but they are all donation only.
Reference Materials
Here are links to the other 'stickies' on this forum and other posts that may prove important. Note: These links are all in 'flat' mode.
Landwar 'Plunder'
How to calculate unit maintenance costs
How APCs work
A quick guide to Building Crews.
Mech Preference: What does it mean?
Some information on attacking other empires
Some extra 'hidden help pages'. Thank you Stalker17 and Staker.
Faction Information
For the budding faction leader. This page lists the amount of 'points' a faction leader has available for his level, and how many points empires under him take.
Sensors Page
This is a slightly outdated page that gives an overview of the current sensors rules and what all those numbers are for.
Factories2.asp
If you are logged in, this page will list the resource requirements breakdown of all items you can currently manufacture.
Oversized Military Tax
Don't worry about this page. It helps calculate the tax for 'oversized militaries', but it only actually kicks in at high levels. Fooling around with the numbers can be kind of neat, though.
SP_Breakdown
This page lists all the support points used by the empire you are currently logged in on, listed by type. (IE, Mech, Hover, Tower..) You can use this information on the OMT page, though it automatically fetches it much of the time.
RNG Test
and
RNG Test 2
These two pages are for the purposes of testing the Neveron RNG if you feel frustrated with it.

If I could be so bold...
If you have a "Check here first!" thread, link to it in the signup process for new users. The Comms page is the LAST place a newbie is going to be looking for help. Thanks,

Despire of Liason's being "Official Comments", he doesn't control the game, so he can't place anything inside it.

Does he have the power to make a sticky thread? (i.e. stays at the top no matter what else is posted)
If not, this thread is just going to fall off into the second page, where no newbe's will look for it, and it will be worthless.

No, I don't have the power to make a sticky thread, but I am reasonably sure that this thread was made sticky.

Well, he could just keep posting nonsense on it to keep it at the top, but that would be a dumb way of doing it.

Silly newbie questions:
1) Where do I find the tutorials?
2) How do I create building crews? The crew build link on the crews page doesn't work (I have enough money) and I can't convert infantry to building crews.

1)click the help tab on top of nev. its the last one with the question mark one it. the tutorials should open in a new window, if they dont shut off your fire wall and any pop up blockers. There are also alot of tutorial posts if you read through this forum.
2)you can just outright buy the building crews from the crews page click the cost next to the crew you want and it wil go from there. as for making them, ive never done it and its no longer supposed to be part of the game, but if you have enough infantry units you should still be able to convert them.
3)if you have questions like this, its probably better to make a new post. more people will read it.

How do you promote and demote people and set their max ranks?

I don't think you can just outright promote people, like make em captains and such. But you can make their unit the leader of a lance, company, or battalion and by doing so they get higher ranks. I don't think you can demote people cause I've had a guy who's whole company got destroyed and so did his unit but he survived and kept the Captain rank.

You can demote a soldier. If you go to people then any of the lists and click on their rank they can be demoted but they lose skills afaik.

If they're lvl 0 just don't log in on them for a week adn they'll be gone. If they're lvl1 or higher you're gonna haver to wait a full month. Or you can drop em to 0 adn wait a week.

You go to www.neveron.com and punch in your username and password in the appropriate fields.
If that isn't what you meant.
Might be a good idea to give some more details on your problem.

I have noticed that some zones have crosshatching on them when viewed with the map. I was wondering what this means?
