Netrek Hockey: Beginner's Guide

Two Golden Rules

Read and respond to messages. There's nothing more frustrating than playing with somebody you can't talk to.
Don't kill cripples! Sure, it's easy to kill all these scouts with your CA, but a crippled scout is totally useless to his team. If your teamates are yelling at you for killing, just stop shooting until you know better.

Possesion. To get the puck, put your tractors on it.
Shoot. To shoot the puck, pressor it. The puck will go in the direction that your ship is pointing. In order to shoot:
- You must be close enough to the puck.
- You must be the closest person next to the puck.
- The puck can't be going too fast. If the puck's shields are down, it is going too fast.
Pass. Now that you know how to shoot, pass to a teamate! Nobody likes a puck hog.

Get open. If your team has the puck, try and get open so your teamates can pass to you. Go where your teamates aren't. Stay within passing range.
Cover somebody. If the other team has the puck, find an enemy not being covered and put a body on him.
