Event: There's Always a Bigger Fish
War has shrouded the galaxy before the Outworlders even arrived, but the tempo has sped up. Armies are on the move, secret missions have been undertaken, and a galaxy-wide draft has been enabled. And finally... Finally it seems as though the Republic will make its move. A daring one.
They've discovered the location of Revan's ship.
And they're sending a small fleet to meet with him...
In battle.
You have heard us mods talk often of this Phase Two that we're sending the game into, and this game-changing battle will be the kick off the new phase of the game. However, more information on what will change in Phase Two will come after the conclusion of this event. :3c
The event will begin on January 8th and will conclude on January 15th. ICly, the event will take place over the course of that weekend, but we are giving you all time to be able to thread out the happenings of the event, both during the battle, and for those of you not participating as you await the news of the fates of your loved ones, enemies, and that one guy you met that one time in a cantina.
So, how will this work, you ask? Excellent question!
We are going to be dividing the draftees, Jedi who wish to participate, and Republic Military kiddos - including those who volunteered - into strike teams that will be boarding Sith ships and fighting. The teams will be randomized.
Any members of the Sith who wish to engage the ~*heroes*~ are welcomed to. :3 We can either randomize you with a group or you can choose to duel it out over space with someone of your choosing during the battle.
Everyone drafted will need to comment to this post. Please let us know if they have dodged the draft, if they are going to be put onto a strike team, or if they are of the non-fighting draftees.
If you're playing a character who wouldn't fight, please list either Medic, Communications, or Repairs as their designation during the battle. Medics don't necessarily need to have medical training. They can assist the droid, make runs for the wounded, help tend the wounded, etc. Communications would relay information to the teams, run errands for officers, etc. Repairs also don't need mechanical experience! They can help make sure things are where they are, assist engineers, etc.
If your character would like to volunteer, please let us know in this post so that we have a headcount for the strike teams! Civilians will not be allowed to participate, so if you want to be involved, you will have to enlist. Or be a clever girl civilian and sneak aboard a ship~
The Avengers! As you're already with the Republic Military and a team yourself, you may divide yourselves into a strike team and assist the others.
Jedi are also welcomed, and encouraged, to participate. :3 Just comment to this post that you want in.
We are looking for team leaders! While it's possible not every character put up as a team leader will get the opportunity, we would like a headcount before we decide how many teams to have and how many to a team there should be. Two characters per mun can be put forth as a team leader.
This post will be open for two days, and will close on January 6th at 11:59 pm so that we can get the teams sorted, and you all have the chance to plot out how/what you want to get done.
More information will be revealed through NPC posts as the event progresses.
Stay astral, Starsians~
