7 months and counting

Well, I thought it was time for an accounting. Tommorrow will mark the end of my seventh month as Herald of the Brotherhood.

So, I'll break it down into the things Muz has done:

Warbanners: ~160
Yeah, I've done a hell of a lot of warbanners. somewhere in the neighborhood of 160+ (not counting revisions, though...those are hard to track). Now, to be completely honest, Shin's probably matched that number by now, as he's pretty much taken over the warbanner project for me.

Lightsabers: 639
Yes, you read that number correctly. Almost all of the custom sabers uploaded these days are from my own desk. I've seen a few people do their own, a few people send me sketches (that i make for them), and there's a prize few sub-contractors, like Raven of Naga Sadow. But the Lightsaber Construction Tool is made up entirely of my sabers. And then, there's a crap-load of customs.

Robes: 192
Robes? Oh yes, robes. This was something I really wanted to do, my pet project, as it were. I got rid of the old robes (which Chi made, way back in the day) and put up a nifty tool for people to go and pick out something that suited their character, based on rank, order, style...all that. In addition, at the DC level, you can get custom robes, of which I've done a bunch, and have more in queue.

Website
First thing I did after Shin set me up a nice sparkly new website was to complete a warbanner guide. Then I went and put up a Custom Lightsaber Gallery, and a Robes Gallery, to help people see what's available and what can be done. There's also a small character bio with cool clone war gfx of Muz and Shin up there.

Other Projects:
I was going to go and redo some of the older medal images, but I managed to 'contract' those out to ex-HRLD Cyris Oscura, and he delivered some awesome stuff. Also, worked with Jac to get a new Site Layout working.





Plans:
• History of the Herald - a fictional and historical look at the Heralds of the Brotherhood and their accomplishments.

• Fleet/Systems Manuals - well organized and structured resource for the clans to use to show their home star systems and fleets to best coordinate their own defense and offense capabilities.

• Hand to Hand Combat Guide - the big black book of beating ass. The companion guide to the lightsaber combat guide is already under way, and will probably be released in the next few months.

• Expansions - I plan to add more lightsabers to the selector, and the robes selector will continue to grow throughout my term as Herald.

• Personal Possessions - To dovetail with the possessions system that will eventually come about.



So, there you go...That's the state of the Office for now. Comments, Concerns, etc...you know how to email me.
