Good evening everyone,

Artifacts are implemented! In total, 19 new artifacts have been added to the system and granted to the clans. As set out in the club's Artifact Policy, each of the clans were allowed to create up to three artifacts to start, and were given the opportunity to rework old ones if they had any (Vizsla did not).

Current Artifact List

The artifacts that each clan now owns are:

• Clan Arcona
  • Serpentine Throne
  • Blind Key
• Clan Naga Sadow
  • Dark Sword of H'kysch
  • Eye of the Overlord
  • Heart of Ombus
• Clan Odan-Urr
  • Siji Sing Dipengini
  • Scimitar of Lord Hoth
  • Technocratic Artifact (Description updated to reflect its special properties, does not count towards three artifact limit)
• Clan Plagueis
  • Mortis Crystal
  • Rakatan Energy Device
  • Serreno Astrolabe
• Clan Scholae Palatinae
  • Holocron of Vengeance
  • Rajk Opal
  • Scisis
• Clan Taldryan
  • Blood Bond Cauldron
  • Cylinder of Taldryae
  • Scions Bryar Lightsword
• Clan Vizsla
  • Jai’jalaar Electro-Trident
  • Tarre Vizsla Datacron
  • Vizsla Crusader Armor

The artifacts owned by individual members are:

• Darth Nehelam
  • Caliburnus

Important note: Arcona and Odan-Urr each opted to only create two artifacts at this time. Evant has set a deadline for the end of 2022 for them to create their third and get it in the system, or that third artifact is forfeited. This should give those clans plenty of time to run an event or do some fictional development to acquire that third artifact, whichever they prefer. Each clan has chosen under what circumstances they want to temporally grant each individual artifact to a member/let members use them, if any. Big thanks to our resident Voice of the Brotherhood Idris Adenn for working through the fictional aspects of these artifacts with me.

That's a wrap on artifacts for the time being!

Planetary Assets

Planetary Assets are in Evant and Bubba's inboxes awaiting final approval before we go ahead with image creation and implementation. Bubba has already given the go ahead and likes what he sees, so we're only waiting on the big guy! This project is by and far the biggest expansion of possessions content for the clans in a very long time, and have been designed specifically to allow each clan to fill out their existing locations and give them the opportunity to easily create new ones within their domains. Based on the cost of these items, we've worked out (between the staff, which includes two Consuls and a Proconsul all from different clans) what we believe to be an appropriate credit grant for the clans, but be warned: the credit grant will not allow you to buy everything they might want, nor should it. Clans will have to make choices on how they wish to diversify their credit accounts once the grant is added between planetary assets and military forces to find whatever balance they want.

I've already given a sneak peek at some of the item prototypes you can expect to see through my currently running puzzle series, and we will add a new store for the items when we implement them that will be found in the Clan Stores section. I'll release a report once these are are implemented and give additional details. This is one project we are extremely excited about, and we can't wait to see what the clans do with the new goods.

Booster Release

The Regent Staff's first booster release is also in Evant and Bubba's inboxes awaiting final approval before we go ahead with image creation and implementation. This will see roughly ~20 new item prototypes added for members, with many of these getting clan versions as well! Like Planetary Assets, I'll release a report once these have been implemented (if not implemented at the same time).

Armour Upgrades

With Weapon Upgrades v1 now implemented and in the system, The staff are now working on the next phase of upgrades roll-out: Armour Upgrades. We've already included as many of the currently approved armor modification aspects that make sense as possible, and hope to have more to tell you on this soon. Once these upgrades have been completed and implemented, only Land Vehicles remain for the v1 roll-out of upgrades. It'll be great to finally get this expansive project off our shoulders and move onto new pastures. As for what comes next for the Regent Staff once upgrades are done? Well, that's a secret for now. ;)

As always...
