Prologue

The air was thick with humidity and the released pollens of Dathomiri flora. In the distance Raken heard a Rhoa Kwi cry out to its pack signalling the death of their prey. Raken was prey too, but of another predator that called the witch planet home.

The rancor could smell him. Its nostrils oozed mucus that collected the scent of its quarry. The beast's rider leaned over low in her saddle to whisper soft incantations into its earhole to focus the creature. The slave known as rah-k'ah would die for his transgressions against the clan. She would drive her force pike through the base of his skull and watch as her mount pulled the pathetic soul apart piece by bloody piece...

Raken awoke from the nightmare in the shadow of a tree whose boughs stretched far into the Kapsina sky. The past haunted him almost as much as the future. The latter was a sanguinary littany of unnamable horrors while the former watched in silence as he approached his death.

OFFICIAL "SPOOKY" HALLOWEEN FORMAT

Try not to flee in terror of my Halloween-themed report format. Get back here you cowards!

MAKO PROMOTED TO ACO

Mako has completed numerous SA courses exceeding the standard for promotion. Well done!

STATE OF THE HOUSE SECTION REMOVED

You might notice I've eliminated this section of my report. Between the News section and the Projects section, I felt I was already covering the majority of what was going on in HSK. I'm looking at issuing State of the House addresses periodically through the HSK Google Group when events warrant.

REPORT YOUR ACTIVITY!

I think this is something we've gotten away from in recent months due to the chaos of the GJW and the BT restructure. What I want to happen is for you to report all your activity to your BTL, Kal Vorrac. If you're not in a BT, report it to the AED, Daniel Stephens. If you enter a CP competition, fight in the ACC, submit an entry to the MTs, etc., inform the appropriate leader. He can then pass the activity onto the rest of us so we can get an idea of who is doing what.

Do it in a little Activity Report, or simply drop him an email saying, "Look what I did!" it doesn't matter to me. As long as he knows what you did and then tells me. This will play a big factor for those of you looking for admittance to the Knight Trials, Equite promotions, or merit awards in general. It's especially important in light of the MAA's more stringent criteria for promotion and award at all levels.

IDEAS WANTED!

With many of the chores done in order to re-organize the House following the GJW completed, I'm now looking to expand on elements we enjoy here to promote fun and activity. I've started a Topic on the HSK forum asking for your detailed ideas on things you'd like to see the House do.

I've already received several positive ideas which have sparked my interest and have me thinking in more directions than I was already. This kind of participation is what will give us a unique and fun experience in this House.

Honestly, I'd like to see at least one idea from every single member in HSK posted there. I want to know what you would like to do to enjoy your time here. It's a lot more fun for me to know you the member have a vested interest in what we do here and look forward to what we humbly bring you.

MORROTH

The rare and mysterious powerbase for HSK, Morroth has lain shrouded in mystery. So much so, barely anything has been written of it to date. Just take a look at the Scant Description on the HSK site.

I had assigned a special operative to the task of making more detailed information available, but he has mysteriously disappeared.

Now I need the task completed. If you're interested in doing some writing, send me a short sample of your work. This is an important House project that requires some talent and will be rewarded.

You have two weeks left to earn this honor. Will you claim it for yourself, or let someone take it from you?

I don't do much gaming these days (looks over shoulder to see if the wife is nearby) but I have been playing Empire at War and I must say, it is bad. And I mean bad how I meant it when I was in Middle School and first saw Metallica. Ride the Lightning, people. Yeah, that's right, that kind of bad.

Due out October 24th is the expansion for EaW, Forces of Corruption. This game looks absolutely sick. If you're into detail and EU Canon, this expansion offers quite a bit. I'm talking: light whips, Nightsisters, rancors, Eclipse-Class Star Destroyers, Super-Star Destroyers, V38 Phantom TIEs, TIE Defenders, and a playable criminal faction that forces you to succeed by guile and corruption rather than all-out war.

This is just a brief description of all the cool things they're including in this pack, but wait, there's more. For the criminal faction there's also Prince Xizor's infamous ship, The Virago, a StarViper-class Heavy Starfighter. They've also re-worked some of the gameplay to allow you to place certain structures wherever you deem most tactically advantageous rather than the original and very restrictive method of emplacing them at designated points.

The other thing of note with this series are the mods being developed for it. I've read of one in particular, Legacy of War, that incorporates the Yuuzhan Vong as one of the playable factions as well as the Chiss and some others. The mod also boasts Orbital Bombardment. Anyone interested yet?
