Hi I am interested in learning more about your faction. I have played the WEG star wars game a bit in the past but I have not played any message board games before. I dont know how you guys interact or fight but I would like to learn. Thanks for your time.

Well, we have a fleet which is about 382 ships strong. We are the most powerful group in the Imperial Nexus. We have two leaders, myself and Guardpiett. Both of us are Grand Admirals. We are stricly a Navy/Fleet Combat group. So far, we have 13 members. We have 13 shipyards. We can offer full protection to all members, and if you get captured by another group, we will come to your aid immediately. Just ask some of our members who have been captured before. We had them out of their cells within a day. Also, we are soon to be the most powerful group in the galaxy, for reasons I cannot disclose on a public channel.

Any other questions?

Thank you for the information Darth Viscera. I have some more questions. How do you obtain money? How do you fight with the ships once you purchase them? How do you rise in rank? Who do you fight? As I said I am totally new to this type of thing and have no clue what I am doing.

Thanks again for your time.

How do we obtain money?
1. Taxes
2. Eating planets with World Devastators
3. Selling Ships
4. War Spoils
5. Mints

How do we fight with the ships once we purchase them? Check the Swfans.net roleplaying forum for that.
How do you rise in rank? By training and winning battles. Who do we fight? The Jedi, the New Republic, and TGE.

Okay I guess the best way to learn anything is to just jump into it. Darth Viscera I would like to join if you dont mind having a total and complete novice in your faction.

I read a little on the ezboard help page and it says that if you are using AOL you might have trouble logging on and guess what I use AOL so maybe I am screwed.

Dace Patton

Dark Grimlock

Okay cool the rank is the right size now but I still cant get into the other section of this board. It still tells me that I am trying to access a private area. What am I doing wrong?

Darth Viscera
Nov 15th, 2000, 06:21:17 PM
I dunno.

Dark Grimlock
Nov 15th, 2000, 11:49:56 PM
Okay this is just nuts now my rank isnt even showing up.

Dark Grimlock
Nov 15th, 2000, 11:50:58 PM
Do you think if I made a new account it would work?

Darth Viscera
Nov 15th, 2000, 11:51:52 PM
Your rank is showing up. I see the blue squares. Before, though, it wasn't showing up at all.

Dark Grimlock
Nov 16th, 2000, 11:18:27 PM

Darth Viscera
