Dark Greetings Battle Team Members,

This is your Sarge Gelton Torr speaking. You now ask for sure "What? we have a Sarge?" and you are right, I haven´t show myself for quite a time. The reason is I was on leave for 3 weeks until April 15th and then in the last week my new semester started and I was so busy, that I even forgot to report to our beloved QUA. (Gelton kneels down and begs for mercy). But know I try to get together my first report (gulp):

Roster:

The roster of the Battle Team currently stands at 5 members.At this point a hearty welcome to our newest member NOV Zekk.

Competitions:

As far there is only one competion, concerning battle teams, coming up, but a very important one. I paste in the anouncement letter here so I won´t miss any important detail:

There will be a JK1 and JK2 tournament Saturday, April 27th which starts at 3:00 PM EST in #Obelisk. It will be a single elimination tournament with online brackets available as the tournament progresses. The settings will be no force guns teams (2v2) and you may use the level of your choice for JK2 and JI Oasis for JK1. At least 8 participants (4 teams) will be required for each tournament to take place. GCr will be awarded to the winner and SCr for the runner-up. CFs will be awarded to those that win matches just like a normal multiplayer competition. Please note that you can't play in both tournaments since they'll be going on at the same time.

I suggest you take part and show the others, what skills the soldiers of Cestus have. If all goes well I will take part myself (details below).

Trainings:

I plan to hold a training once a week, where we can improve or just train our skills in sabers as well as in guns. For that I have to schedule a day and time. But the problem is we all live in different timezones and don´t have time for playing at the sme time during a week. What I´m asking you for as the Battle Team members, is to tell me in which timezone you live and what´s your favorite day for a training is. I will try to pick the best day then.

The first training I schedule now for Saturday 12PM EST three hours before the comp, so we will be fit for it.We will meet at #obelisk

Noe to a personal problem: I don´t have my own copy from JKII yet. I ordered one at the begining of the last week at my favorite computer store. But I ordered the english version and that has to be imported from the UK and until now I haven´t recieved a message from them, it has arrived. I hope will get it tommorow or early saturday otherwise I will be unable to participate in the training as well as in the comp. :(

Misc:

I thought about a new motto for the battle team and I want to hear your opinions about it. My motto I thought about is:

Inhale - Kill - Exhale

You are of course allowed to make own suggestions for a motto, if you don´t like the old one.

Ok, members, that was my first report. I hope it provided all you need to know for the next week. See you Saturday.

                                                                            Gelton Torr
