In 3 days, South Pacific has doubled its population. And people say raiders don't promote region building ;)

New Council of the Hawks

Postby Jakker » Sun Jul 12, 2015 10:09 am

RaiderCon was a time for us to all reflect on the past and look to the future. The future of The Black Hawks will be in the hands of new players as the Council of the Hawks is making some changes.

I will be stepping down as Head of Military. It has been an honor leading The Black Hawk's raiding operations over the last few years, but I believe it is time for new faces to take charge of one of the greatest military groups in NS history. I will remain in the Council serving as the Council Chairman where I will working behind the scenes leading the fellow council members.

Sergeant Ever-Wandering Souls and Sergeant Marselesk has been promoted to Lieutenants and are the newest Field Marshals for The Black Hawks. They will in charge of leading TBH's military. They have had many great raiding accomplishments already in their career and I am excited to see their leadership in action.

Sergeant Wetwork (The Will of Kane) has also been promoted to Lieutenant and now the Head of Training for The Black Hawks where he will lead our efforts in recruiting and training new recruits for the military.

General Tramiar and General Crushing Our Enemies will serve as Military Advisors.

A new GP thread will be started soon to reflect this new era for TBH. Congrats to all and here's to 10 more years of raiding.

I obviously knew this was coming and all, but its still exciting to see happen. I've been a Hawk for many years now, been on the Council myself, but its gonna be awesome to see EWS at the helm. He'll steer this ship in the right direction. Long live TBH!

Marselesk opens his ship's navigation unit


It was a tiresome day in the docking bay of the Black Hawk base Alpha, and many raiders were either on the main event in the old Black Rider sector or were tending to their own business. While Marselesk rested on a outdoor bench, a mysterious figure approached him from an area which the ground lamps could not illuminate. Upon adjusting his eyes, he realized that the figure was an old friend, Vandoosa. The two made plans several hours prior to pillage a number of unsuspecting settlements on the outskirts of the secondary gama route. After a few minutes of walking they entered the hangar in which lied Marselesk's personal marathon class battleship. It had not been touched in a couple months, and still had scars of the last battle which needed to be tended to.

"Fweeeeew. This thing's pretty beat up from the last couple fights. Can't say i'm not to blame, i've not been the most caring of owners." casually remarked Marselesk as they entered the ship

"You'll have tons of time to fix it now, though!" replied Vandoosa in a tone of natural cheer

"Ahhh, i guess. Let's just hope i still remember how to use this maneouvering module, if it's evenn working properly."

With a few pushes of the neuro-sensitive pads on the command module of the ships, the vessel suddenly started to throw bright blue rays of light both inside and outside of it. With the vessel functioning properly, the due departed the Black Hawk base hangar and entered into warp speed along the secondary gama route. Marselesk had a bit of trouble in his attempts to lock a suitable number of targets within the command module's system, but finally managed to do it after some frustration.

"Do you have the weapon system ready, Vans?"

"Sure do, ready when you are."

"Alright, here goes nothin'."

The vessel launched itself into the orbit of a small swamp covered planet which has obviously seen it's fair share of bombing and interstellar battles. Upon lowering it's altitude into acceptable range, the vessel engaged in a barrage of aggressive shell-emptying rounds which devastated the settlement several hundred kilometers below it. In no more than a minute, the settlement was in utter chaos and it's residence were either dead or in panic.

"Whew, that was a good round. Get ready for the next target."

"Roger!"



In conclusion of report, Marselesk and Utsusho/Vandoosa ran through the major update with some lags and bugs, but in the end managed to set fire to a total of 26 regions.
