- 4 2 2 25 - 49 REAR ADMIRAL
- 6 2 3 25 - 49 REAR ADMIRAL
- 3 3 1 50 - 99 LIEUTENANT

- 10 5 2 100 - 198 ADMIRAL

- Notes for table II:
- 1 - A win is a score of 750 or higher. Points gained are on a
- percentage basis of the score divided by 1000. If you win by
- self destruct, however, you only get half the points.
- 2 - A loss is a rating of less than 750. Points lost are on a
- percentage basis of the score divided by 1000. Your total
- points cannot fall below 1 after you have become a recruit.
- 3 - 1 = BEGINNER GAME, 2 = BASIC GAME, 3 = ADVANCED GAME.
- 4 - This is the total # enemy you started out with. See table III
- for the size of the galaxy to specify to get the required #.
- 5 - This is the maximum rank you can achieve by playing at this
- level. Once you reach this rank, you will not gain points,
- even if you win (but you will lose points if you lose).
-
- Once you reach the rank of captain, a score of <900 is a loss. The
- only way to reach the rank of fleet admiral is to win a game
- (rating=1000) vs 198 enemy at level 3 playing at a timing factor of
- 10 or less. Once you do attain this exalted rank, however, you can
- never lose points and may play at any level to gain points.
-
- TABLE III
- GALACTIC SIZE MAXIMUM ENEMY POSSIBLE
- 2 6 (18 AT LEVELS 2 OR 3)
- 3 16 (18 AT LEVELS 2 OR 3)
- 4 30
- 5 48
- 6 70
- 7 96
- 8 126
- 9 160
- 10 198
- The minimum you can get at level 1 is 6 and at level 2 or 3 is 18. Of
- interest to the player is the following table showing, the number
- of starbases you will get depending on other considerations.
