Duel Rules:

1. To send a duel invite, move your fleets into the Arena first. While you are waiting for a response to the invite, you cannot move anymore fleets into the Arena.

2.There is a 3-minute period for the player to accept your duel invite and prepare for the duel. Once this time is up, the duel invite will expire. During a duel, if either side leaves the Arena, the duel will end and both players' fleets will be sent back to their respective home galaxy.

3. Players can accept or decline a duel invite. Dueling in the Arena will not cause any loss of ships or resources. If you don't wish to receive duel invites, you can choose to block duel invites.

 4. There is no faction limit for dueling in the Arena.
