GM_Kadann | Welcome all to another Vast Empire meeting |
GM_Kadann | I've been pretty busy with work as well as swg lately |
GM_Kadann | playing on the eclipse server to build up the base there |
GM_Kadann | I know everyone is interested in when Chapter 8 is coming....perhaps Talon can shed some light on that subject |
GM_Kadann | Talon, you have an OO report this week? |
GN_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | I do |
GN_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | After conferring with the Division Commanders, I have set the date for the start of Chapter 8 to April 1st. You've still got a couple of weeks to finish up your projects before we start in. Get ready, because if you don't keep up you will be left behind. |
GN_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | I am still without a connection of my own and I don't even have a computer desk to call my own, so if you see me online, cheer for me. It's not easy. |
| * GM_Kadann cheers |
GN_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | Hopefully by the start of Chapter 8 I will have my own connection again. |
GN_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | Thank you Kad. :P |
GN_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | That's all from the OO's office today. |
GM_Kadann | Thank you Talon |
GM_Kadann | Time for some division reports |
GM_Kadann | Peacemaker, you have the Army report this week? |
|1LT|Peacemaker | yes |
|1LT|Peacemaker | Fury couldnt make it to this meeting but he left us his notes which are .. |
|1LT|Peacemaker | I won't be able to make the meeting today. Personal life has priority. |
|1LT|Peacemaker | Other than some limping along in the stories (kudos for the DD for finally getting their's kickstarted), I haven't seen a lot going on. Side note: I'll have more info on the ARC story so they can get that moving along as I haven't seen much happening there. |
|1LT|Peacemaker | I want ideas on what people want to do. I also want some quick template whipped up on what a report should look like. |
|1LT|Peacemaker | This should be really painless for people to do and we shouldn't HAVE to provide this, but obviously waiting on the good graces of our members isn't cutting it. So we'll treat everyone like an 8-year old and see if that helps. |
| * |RAD|KPT|Japheth| ponders doing the same. |
|1LT|Peacemaker | I have seen the document Rizzit and Raziel have whipped up on policies and should have some comments on it in a day or two. |
|1LT|Peacemaker | Let's try to have some fun people. |
|1LT|Peacemaker | Besides Furys Notes i can also gladly announce that the VE Players in the Eclipse Base encounterd last night the First serious Fight to defend Semper Fidelis |
|1LT|Peacemaker | Semper Fidelis is the FES City with VE Support which got attacked last night from Rebel Terrorists |
|1LT|Peacemaker | all the Terrorists got killed imideatly without any losses to the Base Structures |
|1LT|Peacemaker | after this We where also able with Support of other Troops to seriously Damage an Rebel Hideout |
|1LT|Peacemaker | thanks :) |
GM_Kadann | Thank you Peacemaker |
GM_Kadann | I must say that was an impressive battle |
GM_Kadann | There had to have been around 40-50 imperials defending Semper Fidelis |
GM_Kadann | If anyone has anything else to report, msg me now |
GM_Kadann | Japheth, you have the Navy report? |
|RAD|KPT|Japheth| | Mmhmm |
|RAD|KPT|Japheth| | Or rather, I would, if anyone had submitted any reports this week. |
|RAD|KPT|Japheth| | Which is to say, I didn't get any |
|RAD|KPT|Japheth| | I may take a cue from Fury and draft up some sort of simple form for that if it would encourage peolpe to write them. |
|RAD|KPT|Japheth| | The squadron story has been moving along sort of haphazardly, the same 3 people are making all the posts, and I'd like to see others jump in and do a bit more. |
|RAD|KPT|Japheth| | Also recruitment is painfully low. Admitedly we don't have a lot of commonly played games to recruit people from, which is perhaps something that we should change. |
|RAD|KPT|Japheth| | I'm going to have to start collecting information from members about what it is they want out of the Navy in order to help provide an environment condusive to getting more members and keeping them. |
|RAD|KPT|Japheth| | And so with a final "SEND IN REPORTS" I guess thats all from the Navy |
GM_Kadann | Thank you Japheth |
GM_Kadann | I'd like to remind everyone to recruit whenever you get a chance |
GM_Kadann | The only way the VE will grow in numbers is by gaining new members |
GM_Kadann | for every 10 members we recruit, only maybe one will stay |
GM_Kadann | for every 30 or so, about 1 will stay longer than a year |
GM_Kadann | so.....given these statistics, we can see we need a ton of recruits ;) |
| * |RAD|KPT|Japheth| nods emphatically. |
GM_Kadann | I guess since no one else has anything else to report....that is all for this weeks meeting |
GM_Kadann | oh wait |
GM_Kadann | Talon, DJO report |
| * GN_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw bows |
GN_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | I'm not sure if I brought this up in a previous meeting, but we've recently gained a new trainee: D-13. The Dark Council is currently investigating another applicant as well. I would like to encourage those that have been around for a while that think they are up to the challenge that the Order delivers. |
GN_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | As always, the Dark Jedi will have a large role in the upcoming chapter. It would be a shame to be left out. |
GN_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw | That's all I have for today. |
| * GN_DJM_Talon|COM_CEO_Claw bows again and fades into the shadows |
GM_Kadann | Thanks Talon |
GM_Kadann | With that...that's it for this weeks Vast Empire meeting |
