Funny story behind that. My original post said that Jakker had the point nation, but then I remembered it was Tramiar and corrected it, but forgot to change the pronoun.

I will believe this simply because you're the one who always remembers.

Wow, coming from a member of a group that just moved into a region to liberate it an hour before it updated, while it was still under the control of raiders. COE's point stands. :P

Yeah, I knew something was off about the timing, seeing as how it hadn't even been 12 hours since we moved in.

If you think I'm breaking the rules, post in moderation, not here. Also, I'm not hiding in Belgium. I'm right here in plain sight: Sardonic Cats.

January 2012 Update

Postby SunRawr » Sat Jan 28, 2012 11:37 pm

The Black Hawks
Image
Council of the Hawks:
Commander in Chief: Commander Red Back
Head of Military/Mom: General Tramiar
Field Marshal: Major Jakker
Head of Foreign Affairs: Lieutenant Rawr
Chief Military Advisor: General Crushing Our Enemies
Military Advisor: General Halcones
Military Advisor: General Sorenity2


While this is only our second update in recent times, it is sure to be one of the most exciting updates in all of TBH history. Surprises, laughs, and information you never wanted to know lie ahead.


Raids!
The Black Hawks have been very busy lately trying to meet our ambitious goal for 2012! Some of our recent targets were:
Asia - Supported by The Black Riders, Unknown, The Phantom Knights, Ghoulsville, The New Inquisition, and The Land of Kings and Emperors
The West - Supported by The Black Riders, The New Inquisition, The Land of Kings and Emperors, Europeia, Empires of Earth, and Democratium

We have also brought back tagging runs. Victims include:
FurNation
The__Balkans
Discordia
Ecotopia
Eutopia
The United Reddit Nations
Hogwarts
American Continent
Heavy Metal Heaven
The Bay of Sorrows
Daanteriv
The Realms of Cyrodii
GECA
Free Dominion
RsBandB

We were also proud to play backup roles in other organizations' raids, including Grand Central's raid of Iran, The Black Riders' raid of East Pacific, and The New Inquisition's raid of Belgium.

Year-to-date raid count: 20


FRUDL Hawks!
TBH is proud to officially welcome two former defenders to our team.

First, we have Mall, aka Mallorea and Riva. Mall is an ex-UDL Lieutenant and a well-known World Assembly author. He is probably best known for writing Repeal "Extinction Preparation Act" which was the most supported repeal in the history of the World Assembly with 10,499 votes for and 1,615 against. Mall joined TBH members on his first raid during the update that took place the night of Sunday, January 15th. He loved it and was an official member before the beginning of the next major.

Next, we have Spartz. If you haven't heard of Spartz, you probably aren't doing your job right. He is a former Arch Chancellor, Vice Chancellor, Chief of defence, and General of the Alliance, in the FRA and was (is) Chief Lieutenant in the UDL. Spartz first joined TBH on 12/13 as Ballopia, but had previously been on independent raids with Tramiar and Rawr. He is currently a TBH corporal.

The Black Hawks are very excited to have these new members on board and look forward to many future victories together!


Another council shakeup
Following the changes to council that we announced in our last update, council members are still settling in and finding their niches. Rawr was switched out of the Field Marshal position and is now the Head of Foreign Affairs instead. Halcones has been moved from Field Marshal to Military Advisor for the duration of his absence. Crushing Our Enemies has risen from Military Advisor to Chief Military Advisor.


TBH gets a new mommy
In a near-unanimous decision by the active Council members, Tramiar has been named the official Mother of The Black Hawks. We are still determining whether or not this makes Spartz our new father.


Hawk numbers soar
Partially because of the successes of our new trainer program and increased training raids, the number of active members in the TBH military has gone up significantly. We currently have 30 members on our "active troops" list, a number which is sure to rise even more before long.


Everything you (n)ever wanted to know about Tramiar!
In what we hope will become a recurring section of our updates, we will tell you about many of the eccentricities of our new mother. Enjoy ;)

Tramiar likes to eat rats
Briana says:
it can eat my neighbor's rat :D
Rawr says:
Okay.. I missed the "t" in your first word and was very concerned.

Tramiar wishes for a larger cup size
Briana says:
if only they had larger cups. oh well. i have apple juice. *is happy*

Tramiar uses the restroom on a regular schedule
Crushing Our Enemies says:
Tramiar tends to take a bathroom break about five minutes into update. Defenders take note: it might be your only chance.


Switches, a new mother, the return of tagging raids... This has certainly been an interesting month for The Black Hawks. Let's hope for this much excitement in each of the months to come!
As always, we will continue to demonstrate our dominance over founderless regions while bringing defenders to their knees. As believers in Raider Unity, we look forward to the opportunity to help you do the same. Contact General Tramiar if you would like a joint op.

The Black Hawks took 4 regions at the major update tonight. This marks the first time that Spartz has raided with us since the announcement of his switch.

Victims were:
Tiberiam
Corellia
Slavija
Lake ilopango

Lake ilopango was a particularly fun one for us. Last time the region was raided was during Spartz's first secret raid that only Tramiar and I knew about. We've come a long way, huh? :)

Troops involved:
Jakker
Spartz
Mallorea
HawkRawr


I would also like to take this opportunity to wish General Tramiar a very happy 20th birthday! TBH loves you Bri!

Oh noes scary raiders raiding things.

Good job i guess, congratulate an opponent for a job well done, well played sir.

Also

It should not be Raiders, thats so generic... Be Vikings, they get to Rape and Pillage in their raids.

I see you've raided Scratch amongst the other things today.

It would of been funnier though if you remembered this viewtopic.php?f=12&t=135189 :P
