Basic Formations

This is a list of basic formations.

Please note that these names are placeholders until someone comes up with better ones. If that someone is you, feel free to rename them.

Uniform Blocks
A uniform block is exactly what it sounds like, a large group of one ship type, arranged in a roughly rectangular shape. This is the simplest formation.

Two Blocks
This is the second simplest formation, and consists of two Uniform Blocks, one behind the other. Due to their strong shields and short range, the forward block is usually fighters. Frigates, having high sensors and firepower but weak shields, tend to make up the rear block, but sometimes Interceptors are used instead.
