Recent military conflicts on Epsilon Major, the most populous planet in the system, have shortened the supply of precious ores and food to the Vast Empire’s most remote systems. The military conflicts were sparked by local militia, citing a lack of aid on the planet, when they attacked Epsilon Major’s capitol [...] METEOR SHOWER OCCURS NEAR TADATH

Tadath, Sian System
Last night, millions gathered to watch the spectacle of the meteor shower that passed near Tadath. The meteor shower began at 00:17, Galactic Standard Time, and ended at approximately 00:21. Many Tadath citizens brought their holocams, insuring that this moment would never be forgotten. And a spectacle the shower was, the oohs and [...]

FROM THE DESK OF THE XO
Posted by Havock
This week marks the return to an old tradition from the days of VE gone by. A Quick Write competition. Its been several years since our last Quick Write, so only a few of you may even know what a QW is.
In a nutshell its a writing exercise that will require you to work together as posts cannot be longer than 500 words. This will lead to quick action and coordination.
I suggest using the #wildcard channel on IRC to work with everyone on posts.

ARC RESCUE MISSION IN PROGRESS – A LIVE REPORT BY
Posted by Havock
Greetings, citizens of the Vast Empire. This is Imperial Recon Droid IM4-099 – but you can call me ‘Face’ – reporting live from the surface of the ice-planet Anteevy, where a rescue mission is currently underway to retrieve Advanced Recon Commando team Theta. My master has informed me that this elite team were declared Missing In Action two days ago, and have been tracked to an underground facility located on this planet. Wildcard Platoon, famous for a reputation as the best of the best, has been sent in to retrieve them. We are now crossing to live footage of the action as it unfolds.
As y. . . . .

ANNOUNCING THE VAST EMPIRE MARINE CORPS
Posted by Japheth
As it happens, I have been in discussion with the HC over this issue.
I hereby officially announce the creation of the Vast Empire Marine Corps. I have been selected to act as its first Commandant. The rank and position structure is still being worked out, and I will welcome input on it. Membership is open to those that expect to play The Old Republic (and, once it is released, those that are actually playing it). At this time, there is no plan for a fiction section of the division - it is intended to be the VE-site side of the in-game guild (which will likely take on the name . I don't object to creating a sub-forum for those that feel the writing itch, but it isn't likely to be a focus of the division, and it will not be a requirement for members.
A section has been added to the roster to incorporate the Marine Corps (though I have yet to populate it), and a dedicated section of Comnet forums will be opened here before too long.
On that note, if you intended to play The Old Republic with us, go ahead and make a post here so I will know to include you in the roster. If you aren't sure if you will play, let us know that as well - I won't add you to the roster just yet, but it will help me to get an idea of how many people are looking to be included in this endeavor.

VAST EMPIRE FANTASY FOOTBALL!
Posted by Angel
Yes that's right sports fans, the best fantasy football league in the Star Wars Galaxy is back in action! There's violence, there's intrigue...there's mindlessly brooding over stat splits, yards per carry and points per reception! Not to mention arguing, screaming, threats, villainous trades and everything that a fantasy football league should be.
Haven't played before? Don't worry about it! We have a nice IRC channel called #VEFF, and those of us veterans are happy to explain things.
This year will once again be Auction style draft. Basically you have $200 to fill your team, and you do so by bidding on players one at a time. Sound exciting? IT IS! You can try to screw over your friends and enemies on someone they really want! But watch out, they may stop bidding and then you're stuck with that player! Strategy!
We ar. . . . .
