It is possible to gain priority deployment for critical engagements. This can be accomplished in one of two ways:

  • Combatant's Priority Deployment: Players who contribute to the initiation of a critical engagement may receive priority when registering for their next deployment.
  • Quartermaster's Priority Deployment: Players may receive priority deployment in exchange for Bozjan clusters by speaking to the Resistance quartermaster at Utya's Aegis (X:14.2 Y:29.6). It should be noted that those with combatant's priority deployment are more likely to be chosen.

If the number of players requesting priority deployment exceeds the maximum number of combatants, they will be selected by lottery.
