[DJP][MAJ]Angel | Welcome everyone to another Vast Empire meeting. We have a few things to go over today, but hopefully we can get you all back to your days in short order. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | We'll kick things off with the Navy today. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | Bacredi, I believe you have the report? |
WO2_Bacredi|CPL_Bacardi | Yes |
WO2_Bacredi|CPL_Bacardi | I do |
WO2_Bacredi|CPL_Bacardi | Sorry about that wait there :p |
WO2_Bacredi|CPL_Bacardi | My very own Tuk'ata Squadron embarked on a new story this week, "Operation: Bulwark", but activity has been slow on our story and on Rhegent Reign's story as well, due to the mass participation in the IOC. |
WO2_Bacredi|CPL_Bacardi | The long running story of "Asteroid 19" has ended, and will be given a closer post soon. |
WO2_Bacredi|CPL_Bacardi | And on the last note today, reports have been coming in rather sluggishly- remember, pilots,t o send your reports in. |
WO2_Bacredi|CPL_Bacardi | And i'm done. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | Thanks Bacredi. |
JRN|Riqimo`CPT|Prof`1LT|Oops | /nick JRN|Riqimo |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | Our own loveable band of brigands has risen from their drunken shenanigans to give us a report this week as well. Pirate King Snipes, you have the floor. |
Dracula | Sorry 'bout that |
Dracula | Bloody italians, anyway, moving right along. Osk. |
Dracula | Should be wrapping up current story soon, really just waiting on Kami/Jeg to kill it off |
| * [DJP][MAJ]Angel coughs |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | It appears the Pirate King is having technical difficulties, so we'll continue for now. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | As some of you may know by now, Rogueboy has taken an extended leave of absence due to personal matters. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | As such, as Rizzit just posted this very hour, I will be taking over as Executive Officer of the Stormtrooper Corps. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | With that in mind, I'll be giving the Army report. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | Our very own lieutenant Havock has a list of promotions and awards from the platoon story to hand out, so I'll cover those briefly here. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | The following troopers are awarded the Emperor's Will, 1st class: luckystar and Saphira Striker. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | These troopers are awarded the Emperor's Will 2nd Class: Madman, Atoll, Tanus Solvana, Aeos, Khalldryn, Razorsedge, Corvin, Hector and Chunkeekong |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | The following troopers have been awarded a one rank promotion as well. As I am too lazy to look up their current ranks.: Kira Midosea, Skarr, Jamasis and Garryll Gates. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | Congratuations to you all, and thank you for participating . |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | Other than that, the Army is fully participating in the IOC. And since this is an awesome transition point, I'll hand it over to Riqimo for the IOC announcements. |
JRN|Riqimo | Thanks Angel |
JRN|Riqimo | The IOC is off too a good start I think, most of you are still trying to get used to some of the concepts and such, but learning fast. |
JRN|Riqimo | Army chaps are finally on the ground where I'm sure you're more comfortable posting, hopefully things will pick up there while the Navy tries to duke it out in orbit. |
JRN|Riqimo | Once the current ground phase ends expect the cards to finally come into play (I think ya'll be familiar enough with the format to use them effectively then) |
JRN|Riqimo | And, the other planets will open up not too long after |
JRN|Riqimo | Last, but not least: if you're a returnee or new member and I have not assigned you to a team, give me a shout and I'll do that as quickly as possible so you can jump in |
JRN|Riqimo | That's it for the IOC |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | Thanks Riqimo. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | If anyone has anything else to add, please PM me now. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | I see Major Raziel has some business today. |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | You have the mic. |
MJR_Raziel | Hello everyone |
MJR_Raziel | two quick things to mention today |
MJR_Raziel | Firstly on specialities |
MJR_Raziel | I know you havent heard much from me on these, but it's about time things got moving |
MJR_Raziel | With Bacredi's help there will be a set of wiki pages going up soon on the new specs |
MJR_Raziel | I want this to be a realtively open process, so I want everyone who feels they can contribute (particularly those who have signed up for help) to work on the new specs |
MJR_Raziel | A wiki offers some great tools in the "discussion" and "history" tabs |
MJR_Raziel | I'll put up a post when the pages are ready for editing and will fill out some myself completely and start up the rest |
MJR_Raziel | I'd like to hear everyone's input on these |
MJR_Raziel | Secondly |
MJR_Raziel | I know IOC is running but Havock and myself will be bringing you some army stories soon |
MJR_Raziel | They will be relative relaxed affairs, but they will be used as writing quality excercises |
MJR_Raziel | Havock will take Raiders and BJ |
MJR_Raziel | I will take Wraith and IH |
MJR_Raziel | and we will give some feedback and a few pieces of advice as the stories progress |
MJR_Raziel | Also given the month, there will be a "horror" theme to the stories! |
MJR_Raziel | I hope you'll enjoy them |
MJR_Raziel | That's me done! |
[DJP][MAJ]Angel | Thanks Major. Since no one else PMed me, I declare this meeing adjourned! Drive safe, and as always, don't forget to tip your waitress. |
