SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | Hello and welcome once again to another roudy round of the Vast Empire meeting. I am your host, Sierra Taurus. Let's get right to it. Fury, do you have a report for the Army? |
HG_Fury | I do. |
HG_Fury | And we actually have a lot to report. |
HG_Fury | First off, I want to thank all of you who have been working on squad websites. |
HG_Fury | I would like either links to them or know when they (and any banners, etc.) have been uploaded to the domain. |
HG_Fury | I presume most of you have seen Episode III already. |
HG_Fury | If so, the following news will make some sense to you. |
HG_Fury | I am announcing a ship naming contest that will run throughout the rest of this month and most of June. |
HG_Fury | Details on Army Main ComNet but here are the basics. |
HG_Fury | We have a Venator-class Star Destroyer as a new army support ship. It is the primary class of craft used by the Republic in the movie and is more a carrier than anything else. |
HG_Fury | We will revamp it with the Mk.II TIE Droids coming online soon and use it with our regular forces as a transport/carrier. |
HG_Fury | In any case, each person will be able to enter 5 suggested names for the craft. |
HG_Fury | Winner gets $1,000,000 credits and a neat prize from Imperial Center. |
HG_Fury | Also, somewhat because of the rush of new joins we are getting and the lack of success of getting them all through Drill, and also because of comments/questions from new members like Howmi Martin, I have a thread on Army Main to ask our new members what we could be doing better. |
HG_Fury | The rest of you can add your two cents but I really want to see what the new folks are thinking as they've got the experience foremost in their minds. |
HG_Fury | In other news, I am awaiting input and may be able to roll out a story later this week unless the squads have their own thing going. |
HG_Fury | In the good news department, Merrick has passed her Officer's test and is now a Second Lieutenant. Congratulations to her. I want to plan for growth and am rewarding a couple of our most creative, unorthodox, but solid Corps supporting squad leaders with officer status. She is the first of them. |
HG_Fury | I want to thank the SLs for submitting reports, either on ComNet or in my mailbox. |
HG_Fury | It is much appreciated and thanks again for the good work you are doing. |
HG_Fury | That's all from my desk. Have a good week everyone. |
| * HG_Fury nudges Talon |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | Thank you Fury. |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | Arturus, you have the Navy report? |
| * ESN_Arturus nods |
ESN_Arturus | Alright, it was also a rather busy week in the navy |
ESN_Arturus | The most important news, as most of you have probably seen from the front page, is that Aegis squadron has been reopened |
ESN_Arturus | Chipmunk Man has taken command of that squadron and Jaden is the new XO |
ESN_Arturus | Willtconq has been named the new flight leader in Kaph and Kaph's new XO |
ESN_Arturus | Finally for roster movement, DJ234 has been named the new flight leader in Nazgul squadron |
ESN_Arturus | As for other squadron activity, Nazgul is finishing up its vacation story and will be moving on shortly to a new one |
ESN_Arturus | Nazgul is also undergoing some new changes and initiatives as Shazam moves to tidy up and perfect the squadron for the future, I believe this will also mean some new pieces to the website in addition to new ways of designing story missions and other initiatives to come |
ESN_Arturus | I think that about covers it |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | Thanks arturus. |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | If anyone has anything else to say, PM me now. |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | As it looks like Kadann is still on leave, the lottery will not be held this weekend. I will let him deal with it when he returns. |
SM_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | As it looks like that is all, have a good day and a safe ride home. Don't forget to tip your waitresses. |
