But how do you participate in this?
=== Itani/Serco ===
Join channels 201 ([[Nations|Itani ]] convoy channel) and 202 ([[Nations|Serco ]] convoy channel), these channels will give you a five minute warning of when the convoys will depart, it will tell you when they depart, it will give you updates along it's journey such as where it is, if it is under attack, and if it has been destroyed.
To participate, you guard your nation's convoys, and if they get destroyed gather their cargo and bring it back to your nations drop off sector. You can also attack your nation's enemy's convoys, destroy the convoys and pick up their cargo and bring it back to your nation's drop off sector. Be prepared to meet resistance from the nation's players, and the convoy's guards.
A convoy generally consists of a robotic Axia transport ship that is guarded by several robotic nation-aligned escorts such as Dentek Assault or Orne Guardians. When the 5 minute warning goes off, people congregate at or near the points where they wish to ambush or defend the transports.
Some people keep stockpiles of their favorite ships & weapons in the stations nearby the CtC routes. Others specifically gain faction with stations along the route so they can get better ships and weapons for a lower price without having to run back and forth to their home nations.
=== UIT ===
If you have chosen to be [[Nations|UIT]], you can either fight for the [[Nations|Itani's ]] or [[Nations|Serco's ]] cause, but beware that killing the convoys will give you a slight faction hit but delivering the cargo to a nation will raise your standing with that nation. Furthermore, your name will be listed in the CtC section of the Vendetta web page, and you may become "Kill on Sight" with various player created [[Nations|Itani ]] or [[Nations|Serco ]] fighter groups.
You can also grab the cargo and then sell it to players from either nation. This can be quite dangerous. During the transaction there is no safeguard against one party killing the other or withholding payment.
