Guys (and Gals), i've seen many "Help" threads about various aspects of PVP, but i've not seen any help being offered with regards to team based PVP.
Also, recently, i have seen a lot of new Fleets entering ques as well but being taken apart quite brutally. To me this is very counter productive to the PVP community in the long run.
This is caused by many reasons, but i'm not starting this to debate those issue.
With this in mind, I took the time to create an introductory guide to team based PVP. I used GoogleDocs just in case PWE decides to change the forums overnight.

Basic Premade / Team PVP StrategiesI stress, these are my views and not necessarily the views of others. If you have something you feel that should be included / edited / removed, send me a mail and we'll discuss it.
To me Team based PVP is the best part of STO. Even in it's current state, it is second to none. Shame PWE/Cryptic doesnt see it that way like most of us here.
I really do hope this helps you guys to climb up the learning curve faster than i did.
All the best guys.

The document is designed for new PVP fleets. I dont want it to get into strategies as this isnt the intent for the document.
Too wordy, and it becomes boring.
you are aware he is a figment of your imagination.
nothing to see here, just a bunch of crazy people..
move along, move along
If teams follow the basics... run all 3 ship types all 3 captain types... communicate, and support each other. Within a pretty short time frame they will understand exactly what happened when they fail. Which happens to every team from time to time. If your team learns to communicate the basics to each other... like healing target selection ect... it will be obvious when an error happens somewhere... or when another team counters something hard.
Basics first... and like most things in life the harder stuff just pops into focus.
And the basic strategies of how to employ them all together.
It's coming, just give it abit of time. It will be soon (and not the Cryptic kind of soon either)
And I expect some ego stroking in the next article....lol.
Lolz plenty of ego stroking in the next one.
In all honesty, i will bare that in mind.
Add to communcation the usage of vent/TS to perform even better.
Now the question will be how many new people (as well as seasoned players) will read it.

Done. TSI approval needed??.......lol
Yes, creating another one as we speak. Keep your eyes peeled closely. Something Fallout suggested I do
Needed? Its called appreciation that someone bothered to make a guide for the wild and untrained people.

It was sarcasm. Thanks for the appreciation though.
Probably no one, too proud and stuffz...
MT-
Hard to read sarcasm of the net, but yes youre welcome. Praise from me is a very seldom sight as im strict as heck when it comes to pvp.
