*I am officially returning from my leave, and assuming once again the position of Prefect. The people in the Army High Command that steped up to the next position are now to return to their old duties. Many thanks to Athran for a job well done as Prefect while I was away. Many thanks also to the others that took on more duties in order to make up for the absenses of some of the High Command. All things I requested were met, and some things exceeded my expectations. I would like to personally thank all of you that participated in the compeition, it felt good to look at the comnet while I was one leave and see everything going great.

*We will be having yet another competition soon. This one will have a full background to it, much like the large Vast Empire wide campaigns that we have every-now-and-then. The plot will be well planned out and there should be pictures to go along with the stories. It will be like most other competitions we have, involving:

-Stories and runons
-Multiplayer Battles
-JK Missions (by VEEC hopefully)
-SC Missions (if enough sign up, I will make them)
-Graphics

I have set this competition to start in two weeks. This may come sooner and it may come later, depending on how much we can get done with stories and missions. I will be expecting help from some of you (mainly HCA members) to get this thing going. The main focus will be set around the story. There will be a few interesting twists in the story, and it might make it a bit more challenging to write, but it will make the story flow better and possibly make it part of the timeline.

*As for promotions and awards:
I have not had a chance to fully review the new promotions and awards, but I trust Athran's judgement and I congradulate all of you that received something. There are no new awards or promotions as of yet, I will be keeping a list of all that help get this Army Campaign going.

*I need a catchy name for this campaign, if you would like to submit one please do so, send all ideas to [email protected] - thanks.

*The new Stormtrooper Corps website will not be up for at least a few more weeks, in light of this, Spartacus and I have decided that the old site will be put up for the time being. I know it has seemed like a long time, but the wait will be worth it, and the site should look great. It will be much more involving for the Corps and that is the whole point. Spartacus - please make sure the old site is put up sometime soon. Everyone, there is a link that is sent with every one of these e-mails for the site, so you will always know where it is. Feel free to check the site soon. We will keep you posted and up-to-date on all news concerning the new site.

*Due to the fact that the Stormtrooper Corps is kicking butt, I have decided to judge an idea I had on the activity of the Corps in this next Campaign. The idea is quite simple, yet very important to our division's pride. What I had in mind is to set up a series of 'War Games' with the Emporer's Hammer's own Hammer's Fist. That is their version of a Stormtrooper Corps, and they operate much the same as we do, although our activity seems to be the best of any Army affiliated division on the net. The war games will be set much like the competitions we have, but they will be done with the Hammer's Fist. There will be new implements put into this to make it run smoothly, but for the most part, the competitions will be simple. This is only an idea, and somethink to think on. I have not even e-mailed the Hammer's Fist about this yet, I will shortly after the next Campaign is over. I am open to any suggestions reguarding this topic, you may voice these by e-mailing me personally.

*There may be a few position changes coming about in the near future, I will be expecting people to do their best if they are called upon to fill such a position. There will also be new positions opening along with this, but keep in mind we cannot move too quicly with it all. Gaining rank and position is a slow process, and when it is done correctly it work better. So don't be surprised if nothing drastic happens to you.

*Be sure to check in on the current Army Story on the coment. ( http://www.guston.com/ubb/Forum6/HTML/000057.html ). The activity for this was excellent and I am very pleased with it. I am sure you all would agree that it is something we should do more often, and I assure you, we will.

*All in all the Stormtrooper Corps is still on its feet and still kicking. If we really want to show everyone we are the best we can do double what we did in the last competition in this new campaign. Until then keep your chins up and your heads down (if that makes sense tell me and I will rephrase it, hehe :P) I will be sending out a new Prefect's Report when there is need of one.
