Still working on it. I'll try to get it in order as soon as I can. Probably tomorrow.

Also, my Padawan would probably be in the same team as Vail, wherever he is. Jiyan's Padawan will probably always be at his side, too.

Depends on if there would be enemy ships near the planet, if not, blue squadron would probably be doing bombing runs.

I am hoping to discuss Vail and the Recon Company with Vhagar. I don't know if Vail would be on the ship and land with the rest of the troops, but rather take another squad into enemy territory. Being a Jedi Master, Jiyan could lead the troops on the field maybe? This is something that would be nice to discuss here in the OOC before the first IC post.

Ord Mantell is being blockaded by the Separatist Navy. At the very beginning the only troops we have on the ground are going to be the ones that broke through the blockade. (This'll explain away having 'missing Battalions' that don't have players yet.) SO right now everyone is making planet fall for the first time. I'll definitely send Vail and the scouts to do recon on the pirate base and the droid factory once the Navy takes care of the blockade though.

Sounds good.

You've got quite the blockade to help the Red Draigon break through.

Will there be any Sith for the Jedi to fight after we break through the blockades?

Thinking on this, would there be any Airborne or Recon troops on the ground already? I am curious about how the actual landing will work.

At the moment Jiyan doesn't have a Padawan, so do we have a plan to integrate my Padawan when he/she/it arrives? It could either be a new Padawan assigned to me or there would need to be a reason for the delay.

@Vandy Sorry, hadn't had time to work on it. Exams have kept me a bit stressed, but they end tomorrow so hopefully I can begin working on my sheet full-time tomorrow (If I man not too tired that is)

No actual Sith. During this time the Sith order practiced the "Rule of Two" which stated that there was only ever two Sith, the Master and the apprentice. That being Sidious (Palpatine) and Count Dooku. They did have force sensitive assassins (Ventress) or other lightsaber using generals (Greivous) so yeah I can make someone up for the Jedi to fight. Since we are fighting the Banking Clan maybe a Muun force sensitive general trained by Dooku to use a lightsaber.

None of our troops are on the ground yet. We'll be landing the infantry Battalions first. Once we get a foothold or link up with the Resistance the Recon/Airborne troops will be sent out to scout the two major bases that we will be attacking. (Ord Mantell City and the Matellian Droid Factory)

If you don't have a Padawan by the time we start you can always just say they are newly assigned. They could even show up on Ord Mantell when you first meet them like how Anakin met Ahsoka on Christophsus.

That's fine, exams start for me pretty soon too.

@Vandy I see. Also, if I remember correctly, Dooku had a number of dark jedi under his command. While not truly Sith, I am sure we could make use of Dark Jedi in the RP under the service of Dooku or otherwise acting as antagonists in their own right (just my two cents on the discussion on sith and force users, hope you don't mind)

Like I said, I'll probably put some force using lightsaber wielders in here for the Jedi to fight. Don't ever worry about making a suggestion, they are always welcome.

I think I'm going to replace San Hill as the planetary governor with some kind of Muun fore user. He'll be our main antagonist for a little bit.

*EDIT
The Banking Clan governor of Ord Mantell is now an original character called Dask Gat who also happens to be one of Dooku's unofficial apprentices. He isn't very strong in the force and can only use a limited amount of telekinesis but he is an excellent saber duelist and strategist. He uses a double-bladed red lightsaber. We will be using him as an antagonist for a while. There will also be others as we go along.

Ooo, interesting!

Added some stuff to the second post on the first page. From now on this will be known as the "Briefing Post."

I have broken it down into a few new categories, the first is the Campaign category and will give background on the current long term plot. Right now we are fighting the Banking Clan so I gave background on our enemy and named a few antagonists that will be recurring throughout the campaign. As we finish battles and heroic deeds are accomplished by our troops I will update the Campaign category with a summary of what happened with the names of characters that completed the action. I will also add the current state of the campaign, like battles that other Legions fighting the Banking Clan have been a part of to give us an idea of the greater war going on in the galaxy. We will change campaigns eventually which will bring us to another part of the galaxy with some new (and returning depending on the character) antagonists.

The second category is the one you've already seen. This is the "Current Mission". Basically this will give us background on the battle we are heading towards. Who are our enemies and allies? How did the planet get to this point? What is our overall goal for the battle? Stuff like that. This will only be updated once per battle and will change more frequently than the campaign. There will be multiple battles per campaign.

The Last category is labeled objectives. These are our, well, objectives. Short term. This will be updated frequently and will have assignments for each player. In order to know what your unit is supposed to be doing you need to check your objectives. I give a short background before laying out some broad tasks that need to be completed. For example, the Naval regiment needs to break the blockade. How they do that depends on the players. Objectives will also give an idea on what our soldiers are up against. Under each objective I have a line labeled Assigned Units. This is where you look to find your unit/character. It tells what units are involved in what objective. There are currently three different objectives. I put regiments down as the assigned units. If you are unsure what regiment you fit under check the roster in the character section.

Okay, that's it. I'm going to bed. Night guys :)

We could just make Dark Jedi on the fly, so to speak. People we control in our posts to make the battles more effective and efficient, rather than having to PvP with you every time.

That is how the antagonists are going to work anyway. Players can control them in their own posts whenever. I won't be PvPing with them at all. I will say tht\at Dask Gat cannot be in two different places at once so be mindful. I don't really like the idea of players making up Dark Jedi on the fly.

Dark Jedi will probably be rather rare so they won't pop up often

Did we decide on if the IC is going up today or tomorrow?

... I'll give this a try.

Name: Nahla-Ti
Species: Togruta
Age: 13
Gender: Female
Appearance: (Only thing i could find on the internet... Both lightsabers are full ones.)
Rank: Padawan
Personality: Although she is cautious and will generally do what she's told and wait for somebody else she can also be energetic and excitable, ready to do anything and prove herself. Her lack of strength in the force annoys her but she tries to keep it out of her mind as is the jedi way.
Abilities: Limited telekinesis and sensing. Trakata Jar'kai mix of lightsaber combat.
Bio: Not spending much time out of the jedi temple she was practically raised there after her parents abandoned her and she was discovered by a jedi. Now however the war has started, becoming a padawan she was almost immediately sent out to the front lines to continue her training and help in the war. Her force powers aren't the best by far although they are there enabling her to sense powerful occurences and feelings and do things like knock somebody back a metre. However she excelled in her training of the lightsaber feeling that the double bladed Trakata suited her perfectly.
