SSCU Trench Wars, an exciting team-based game platform. Trench Wars has become one of the most versatile well known zones in all of Continuum. Primarily created as a team-based flagging game, Trench Wars has evolved into a multi-faceted zone offering over 150 Flagging, Racing, Capture the Flag, Deathmatch, and other specialty sub-arenas. Many of these sub-arenas carry custom shipsets and arena designs downloadable in the game (Events). In addition, Trench Wars has one of the most competitive and versatile Elimination games available, hosted automatically 24 hours a day in two separate arenas (Elim/Baseelim)! If you have yet to download Continuum, click here for the latest version!

Your primary mission in Trench Wars is to help your team in the main public arenas, to capture and hold the flag for points. Point bonuses are given out on an intermittent basis for those who hold the flag, as well as a 200-point bonus per kill if your team carries the flag. Each ship holds a specially designed set of functions, created to promote a balanced and skill oriented flagging match. Many sub-arenas hosted by our Staff members include; Deathmatch style dueling, over 42 different theme maps for Basing and Flagging, several Elimination style games in addition to our 24-hour Elim, specialty Holiday maps, ship specific maps (like Javs or Blind for cloakers), Racing maps with custom racecar ship designs, and Ball games like Hockey or Powerball. Trench Wars developers have also utilized the versatility of Subspace/Continuum, to create some of the most popular sub-games to date! Games like Zombies where the humans have only a short time to make it off the island, or Gravbomber where gravity is your friend and your foe! Each weekend, Trenchers gather and unite with their fellow countrymen in the WW6 battle for global superiority!

Trench Wars also has two very competitive squad based League gaming systems, Trench Wars Leagues (TWL) and the ladder-based Trench Wars Division (TWD). TWL is now starting its tenth season, and continues to be the battlegrounds for the best of the best in Basing, Dueling, and Javelins. Squads compete each weekend during a regular season in order to make their way to the playoffs, for a chance at winning their respective TWL-Cups! TWD is a more versatile league system, where games are played at any time and all squads can compete! All of these games are hosted automatically by the MatchBots, who handle all score reporting, player lagouts, game setup, and referee decisions.

This is shown by a small yellow dot next to a person's name. If the player
has a yellow dot, he/she is still eligible for KOTH points. If you have KOTH,
the time that you will still have it is shown on the right side in the middle,
next to the symbol of a crown. You can increase this time by killing enemy
players. If you kill someone with KOTH, you get your timer completely refilled,
while if you kill someone without, it is partially refilled. The timer, I
don't believe, can not go above its initial amount.

If you are the last remaining player with KOTH status, you get the jackpot
points, which depend on the number of players playing but varies from zone
to zone. If only you and some of your teammates have KOTH status, you and
those teammates split the jackpot evenly.

Soccer, or Powerball is a game involving a little ball that appears on the map. If you press
alt, the ball appears as a blinking red dot. If someone has it, he/she appears
as a large red dot when you press alt, or a large yellow dot if he/she is
on your team.

Shields are just what their name implies. They protect you from the harm of
enemy attack. When you pick them up or buy them, they start at 100% protection
and quickly fall until they disappear. The symbol for the percent of
protection is located near the KOTH symbol, next to a green, rotating ball.

A portal is shown by a set of concentric circles on the left side. The
portal is used by pressing Shift+Insert and can only be used if there is no
antiwarp on you. Once you lay a portal, you can leave the portal and go
anywhere on the map. The time that the portal stays in existence is on the
right side, next to the concentric circles symbol. If your time hasn't expired,
you can warp to where you placed the portal by pressing Insert with no loss
of energy! This is useful for basing, since you can place a portal, fall back,
and then warp to the portal behind enemy lines (this is why you should ALWAYS
have anti-warp on in a base). In center, you can place a portal, let an enemy
follow you, and then suddenly use the portal and attack them from behind.

Thor's Hammer is shown by a very weird purple and white symbol on the
left side. Utilize it by pressing F6. This releases a moderately powerful bomb that can go through walls.
However, you usually need more than one in order to kill anyone.

Line bombing, or utilizing a bombline, is a great tactic in many zones. It is when the offensive, or defensive team shoots down a passageway, or through small holes to hit the enemies, or a wall nearby.

Bomb lines are usually created by the map maker, but veteran players often find their own.
