GEN_Rizzit | Welcome to this week's edition of the Vast Empire Meeting |
GEN_Rizzit | I will be your host as usual, so without further adieu let's start things off with the Army Report |
GEN_Rizzit | As of this moment in time, the 2009 Holiday Squad Competition is OVER! The threads will be locked and your activity will be given a final count. You have until the end of today to get things turned in that have not (such as games, graphics, and misc entries) |
GEN_Rizzit | Next week will be the official awarding of prizes and other such good things that we all have become accustomed to. |
GEN_Rizzit | With the end of this competition, marks another planet under our control. The Vast Empire now has control of the planet Arkania, putting us one step closer to our conquest towards Courscant and the core. |
GEN_Rizzit | There are some loose ends that need finishing up however. Our squads will each be departing on a new mission this week to make sure that there is no chance of this backfiring on us. |
GEN_Rizzit | With that said, I just want to thank each of you for your hard work in the competition. It is not easy to participate in a competition over the holiday break, yet year after year most of you not only do so but enjoy doing it. This is what makes this competition so popular every year. |
GEN_Rizzit | Squad Leaders, you will all be asked to turn in an AWOL List at some point this week so we can begin the horrid buisness of checking off who is here and who is not. This way we can get you more troopers for your squads and maybe even consider the possibility of expanding. |
GEN_Rizzit | That is all from me for this week. I now give the floor to Rear Admiral Denethor who has some news from the Navy. |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | thank you General Rizzit |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | lots going on this week, so get comfortable |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | first, the new Wing Story will be up shortly with Ibram posting the first post - this will be called Smoke and Mirrors. I've read the plot and it's going to be an epic story. so get ready for some good reading/writing |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | second, we've been going through some changes over the last couple months, and a few of those are going to be implimented this week - the first is that of the RES (Realistic Experience Squadron) - it incorporates NPC members into the squadron so that they can be "killed off" to make the squadrons less omnipotant in stories - and allows the writers to develop other characters than their own |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | the second change is that of our squadron structure - some of you may have noticed that the Flights have already changed from numeric designations to Greek lettering, that is the first of a few changes - the next is changing the squadron names. The logic behind this is that these squadrons have been around for years upon years and have a certain persona to themselves that new folks may feel they need to live up to |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | with new names, it allows the squadron members to make a squadron persona on their own, make the squadron their own |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | with that said, the squadrons are still looking into names, but we are opening a third squadron to incorporate the RES program, and that will be called Nightshrike |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | it will include SC- LCM Geordi 'Driver' Atrasin |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | A-2- PO2 Arturo |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | A-3- LCRW Uris_Hogan |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | A-4- |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | XO- 1LT Liquid |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | B-2- SCRW Cipher |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | B-3- |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | B-4- |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | FL- SCPO Slasher |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | G-2 LCRW Chainsaw_weasel |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | G-3- |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | G-4- |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | another addition to the Naval roster will be that of the CSS - Capitol Ship Service - it will eventually allow new members to decide of they want to go down the path of working on a capital ship, or the fighter corps, starting from mechanic, to gunner and so on. for now we're treating it as a Task Force to get it started, its members will include myself, Willtconq, Shazam, and Liquid |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | and typo, Ibram will be included as well |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | also, if you go onto the roster now, you will see a couple of small changes, the Naval Advisory Committee has decided to have the position of Naval Logistics Officer removed from the Naval High Command, and is now part of the Command Staff |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | also, Willtconq has been placed as my adjutant and given the title of Master at Arms, his duties will include upholding the law and order that the NHC has implimented - think of him as Radar from MASH - he doesn't technically have authority, but through his orders from the Company Commander, he makes sure that the Commander's orders are followed |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | the NAC is still in discussion today, so a couple more changes may come, so be on the look out |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | now, onto promotions |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | normally I would include reasonings behind this, but I'm sure you are all tired of reading what I have to say, so here goes |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | Senior Crewman Ruwe of Nazgul is promoted to Petty Officer 2nd Class, Leading Crewmens SiriSu and Chainsaw_Weazel are promoted to Senior Crewman, and Senior Chief Petty Officer bjorkfrid of Viper is promoted to Master Chief Petty Officer |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | congrats to them |
RAD_Denethor|DJK_Otto_Vox | that is all from the Navy for today |
GEN_Rizzit | thank you Rear Admiral |
