For those who still haven't heard, my internet access died on late Friday night and I only got it back working again on Monday afternoon. To compound things, I picked up something on Saturday and have been sick as a dog. However, I've just finished approving the backlog of competitions submitted and all the IWATS tests I mark were cleared out yesterday. Thanks for the patience shown by all members during this.

Virus Warning

AD Slade Holm

22 July, 2001 23:47

Attention, there is another virus starting in the fleet.



As most of you attached to this e-mail may have already decided that what has happened is a virus is being passed around and unfortunately I found out about it too late. Below is a reference I'm attaching to help you all check your systems and see if you have this virus, it is pretty nasty and will hit you when you least expect it, trust me I know.

I hope I've gotten to everyone who I've sent an e-mail out to in the last day ot two. Unfortunately this may have gone farther. Since the virus creates 2 files on your hard drive and places your files in one and your e-mail list in another. Then it randomly sends out mail to that list with an attachment using a double ended extension (e.g. yourfilename.doc.com) or something simliar maybe encountered. If your wondering if this is a hoax, well no its not.

Shown below is the information on this ugly and new virus. It will also give you steps to check your system if you think your infected. Please by all means do this, otherwise you won't know until its too late. There is also a link I've added for you to verify what I'm saying to be true. If the XO or anyone with news access to the TC domain would kindly make a post of this I would appreciate it. Wish there was more that I could say except I'm sorry for the inconvenience. As I didn't know until today. Please if you use Norton AV then use you autoupdate to get the atest info. This will help you I promise.

One last thing don't quarantine your files always delete it. unless you can't delete then quarantine, then delete. Trust me it works I know. So good luck and once again I'm sorry!

Have a good Imperial Navy Day!

The results will be e-mailed to the OPS Office. Polls and comments are confidential. (Note: they are tracked just in case someone decides to write in profanities in the comments section, in which case offenders would be referred to the Security Office, so please keep it clean.)

After several days of endless coding, I've finally completed the newest EHNet.org attraction: Sabacc Online! For those of you who aren't familiar with Sabacc, it's a mixture of poker, blackjack and the Star Wars Universe, and is the game in which Lando Calrissian had lost the Millenium Falcon to Han Solo. If you don't know how to play, the rules are on the site, and even if you do know, I suggest you look through them before playing. I'd like to thank Inkwolf for designing the amazing graphics for the cards. You can play Sabacc Online at http://www.ehnet.org/sabacc.

Sector Rangers and the Imperial Security Bureau

AD Slade Holm

07 July, 2001 19:27
9 ABY
As Security Officer I'd like to announce the disbanding of the Sector Rangers, and like the phoenix, rising from the ashes of the Sector Rangers comes the Imperial Security Bureau, a badly needed beginning to a well-deserved end.

From veritable rubble and disorganization into an epitome of uniform and order, the ISB is here to serve you and the entire Emperor's Hammer Strike Fleet, as an effective investigative/reporting agency. I'm sure many of you worry that the ISB is the same thing that the Sector Rangers were, but I assure you this is not true. Unlike the Sector Rangers, the ISB's goal is to report, not to act upon violations of the AoWs and CoCs.

We aren't the police, and wont try to pretend to be. Merely, if we see a violation of Imperial law, it is reported and documented and sent to the Security Office. I sincerely hope you don't automatically look down on the ISB as the bastard son of the SRs, because I would like to put everything the SRs were or stood for behind us. The ISB is just a way to help keep the trouble makers out of the fleet, discourage ill behavior and create a more enjoyable experience for everyone. Membership in the ISB will be very selective, due to the requirement that the organization must remain small in numbers at this present time; so we are seeking only the best and brightest.

If your interested in joining the ISB, and think you have what it takes to represent the Imperial Justice system, please apply: http://www.hailjamie.com/isb/

Although a little late in being announced, the full results from Tuesday night's Battle for Valkier can be found by clicking here. In summary, ships from TF Flaming Arrow completely crushed the opposing Silver Saber forces, for whom the most notable loss was the Regulator, an ImpStar Deuce. TF Flaming Arrow will take control of Valkier at the end of Turn IV.

In other ImpStorm news, TF Doom has captured two more planets: Strall and Golst. Including Firixon, this brings their total up to 3 held worlds.

The battle was a success, with a great turnout (the highest number of people was about 57). Many thanks to all those who attended, and helped. My apologies to those of you who didn't get the opportunity to fly, but there will be more chances in the very near future :)

'Shadows of the Force' is the latest of the surfacing Star Wars Half-Life mods, only this group is still on the job! The time period is Episode I, so there are Naboo, Battle and Destroyer Droids, Gungans, and members of the Trade Federation in the game, but there will also be Sith Lords, Jedi, and Mercs.

They have models of all the popular characters done like Qui-Gon Jinn, R2-D2 & C-3PO, Darth Maul, Mace Windu, Yoda, Amidala, and more! They look weird because they haven't been skinned yet. They have several screenshots of the models along with preliminary map shots.

The gameplay has three modes: Deathmatch, Teamplay (Hostage rescue, Escort the Queen, Bombing targets, Capture-The-Viceroy), and Jedi Power Battles (Jedi Knights vs. Sith Lords)

Let's hope these people can pull it off! You can visit their site here: http://www.halflifenation.net/force/
