Hello once again, Tarentum!

It's time for the general news again. The big thing going on, of course, is the Sith War. This is going to be big, and I know we have the skill, and the people to really make this an impressive victory for Tarentum. I'd encourage everyone to get out and participate. Of course, there's flying events, with multi-player and single-player missions, but there's also graphic events, an ACC ladder planned, and much, much more! Check the Sith War site for updates often, as you never know what might change, and it's always a good idea to keep up on things.

More big news, I've finalized the results for the Keepers comp, and after making sure I have everything, and double-checking a few things, the winners will be released tomorrow, and awards sent in. Again, I'd like to thank everyone who participated, and encourage everyone to continue to build their histories continually. For some, this is a gaming community. For others, this is an experience. Basically, we make the DB what we want it to be. For those of the gaming Orders, I'd encourage you all to write as you desire. It doesn't have to be anything serious, but a lot of people have had success, in the past, through using writing to develop themselves. Not only can we be XWA pilots, and JK2 players, but we can also be pilots, and Obelisk forces through writing the stories about ourselves. It's all as you desire, though.

Anyone desirous of Jedi Academy training, or just general practice, there's a good group of us who play JA, and would be willing to get on the server and play whenever you wish. There's also a dedicated core of Jedi Outcast players, and even some, like Cannabisia, the Cestus QUA, who are excellent JK players, and still have the desire to make this Clan a force to dominate in the DB. If you need practice, don't hesitate to let us know.

The ICTE was a success for Tarentum, and I'd like to thank, and congratulate those who continue to stand up, and make us all proud by being active gamers in the event. I apologize for missing this week, but I love getting out there with everyone, and having fun with matches with as many of you as I can find.

A big thing on my mind, that I would like to announce now... in times past, Clan leaders had the ability to award titles, and honors, to members within the Clan. The titles and honors are official within the Clan, although they bear no recognition from the DC. As Consul, it is my perogative to show honor to the members of Tarentum, and offer you rewards on a basis of Clan. This means that many of you can rise in manners that we all can aspire to, but that no other Clan can earn. I've spoken with the DGM, and verified that this is still within my rights, and are as official as I deem them to be.

For some time, one member, in particular, has stood out in a number of ways. There are many of you who are worthy of reward, and I will be taking care of doing so as I find fitting compensation for your efforts. Each of you has the skill, and the potential to earn the honors that I desire to bestow upon you. Sith Warmaster Maxamillian von Oberst-Tarentae continues to be a source of assistance, and knowledge to me. He has helped, and continues to help with no less than 6 individual projects over the time since he has returned, and has helped make them the successes they are rapidly becoming.

To Oberst, I award the title of Marshal of the Armies of Tarentum. In times of battle, shall it be given to Oberst to act with the rights, and voice of the Clan Summit. He is to act as my coordinator, and one to assist Rekio and myself to ensure the success and victories of each of our honored Houses, and the Clan as a whole. To him, do I also gift the stretch of ocean known as the Sea of Darkness, southeast of the lands surrounding Castle Tarentum. These lands are his to control, and to own, and I offer my gratitude for the services he continues to render to Tarentum.

I will say again, each of you has the potential to earn such awards, and I am grateful to all who show activity, and dedication to Tarentum. Over the coming weeks, Rekio and I will determine who else will be rewarded, and I encourage everyone to continue to dedicate themselves to Tarentum. We're here for fun, and we're here for each other.

Anshar has a run-on going on at the Gladius boards, and I must say, it's really picking up speed. It's been opened up to the entire Clan, and we have a great number of people posting on it. If anyone wants to get involved, and you're not sure how, or if you just want some help to understand what's going on, or anything else, feel free to email me, or even drop a line to this list. There's a lot of people who can help you all out, and it's a good chance for people to get to know everyone in the Clan.

For those who want to participate, the run-on can be found on the Gladius MB at:

Anyways, i think I'll end it there. We keep going strong, and I think you're all doing great. I'd love to see more activity on this list, or even just privately. If any of you wants to talk, or find out about anything, or whatever, just drop me a line. It might be good to add this list to your contacts, [Log in to view e-mail addresses], and feel free to add me, as well. I'll talk to everyone tomorrow, when I release the results for the Keepers comp, and have a great week. Remember the Sith War! Let's rock this place, Tarentum.
