Sorry for the late report, but I've been marooned in Cornwall for the past week, but now I'm back to civilisation to deliver a blistering report.

Void Business:

Before I go over awards and the Dark Crusade, I want to tell you all about Void's new squadron specific awards. I've brought out two awards, one for participation, the other for achievement.

The Service studs are awarded for participation in events. by participating in half the competitions in an event, one stud is awarded. If all the competitions are participated in, then two studs are given. If you place in a non team DB-wide event, you have the opportunity for the stud to be ringed in the colour of your placing.

The other award is 'The Wings'. The Wings are awarded to members of Void that have shown accomplishment within Void, given at the discretion of the Commander. So far, no one has been awarded The Wings, but I hope to give out at least one during the Crusade.

I've also updated the wiki with some equipment and a uniform.
The biggest news however, is the loss of Invictus from Void to lead Shadow Gate. It's a shame to lose such an active member, but I wish him luck in his new role. While we lost a member, we also gained fresh blood, in the form of Valerius Kane. I hope to see him rise quickly in Arcona and integrate well with the brotherhood.

Awards:

Seeing as my previous report was before all the awards were doled out, there are quite a few awards in Void to report.

Nikola: Silver Nova, Steel Cross, Dark Cross, 3 service studs

Nadrin: Silver Nova, Grand Cross of the Dark Side, Anteian Cross, 3 service studs

Tirano: None

Damon: None

Valerius: Silver Nova, Anteian Cross, 2 Service studs

Promotions:

Nikola Valtiere from Jedi Hunter to Dark Jedi Knight

Competitions:

Just over half the members of Void participated in the Dark Crusade competitions, netting 14 of Arcona's 162 entries, giving us an average of 2.8, which is better than last time. The competitions entered so far:

Nikola: 5 Competitions Entered (Fiction, Run on, Graphics, Gaming, SA Course)

Nadrin: 5 Competitions Entered (Fiction, Run on, Graphics, SA Course)

Valerius: 3 competitions entered (Run on, SA course, Graphics)

Tirano: No entries this round

Damon: 1 competition Entered (SA course)

We won Rhelg, which is always good news, considering our narrow loss last time. This was done because Arcona banded together and really worked to push it to the limit, and kick some arse. I hope that we can keep it up, and really bring it to the next phase. Of course, before that is the Independence Day Games. I have my own event, like most of the Brotherhood's leadership, and I'm going to try and participate in as many of the events as possible. Let's show the Brotherhood that Arcona can keep it up.
