It's been about a month and a half since a faction-wide update has been given, so let's talk about what has happened since then, highlight some things, and discuss where we go from here. It may be a little long-winded, but it's important to breeze through to keep up to date on what we need.
First and foremost, October and November have been busy months for the Hutts, and SWRP as a whole. We've spread across two theaters of battle in five active threads, involving over thirty characters. This is certainly the biggest battle I remember on SWRP, and one of the biggest I've participated in RP at all. Good work to all of our Hutt troopers, and good luck to our players as they wrap up battle threads on Bothawui.
There has been a lot of chatter about a Senate meeting. In response, the Hutts will need no more than TWO or THREE delegates to the senate to act as representatives for the Council. These members would also be responsible for forging relationships with other (Independent) factions. If you would like to try for this role, please PM me with a character suggestion.
Through the battles, we have discovered which players are more active and which are inactive. We will shuffle our command structure before we begin new battles, but more than likely you will stay with your Squadrons, just under different commanders (if necessary). Should your character die in a battle, a new one can be made and will retain the same rank.
As of this posting, one thread has ended with two more on the way. Our first round of Medals (with more to come and be posted here as they finish) goes to Darksaber Squadron. The Squad Leader, Nathaniel Morosov (CK57) received a Galactic Star for his command in the capture of the shipyards, while his troopers Haveti (Words) and Koran Mak (Dark Cloud), who received a Steel Star each. These are our first players to receive medals through the roleplay. Congratulations you three, I hope I can hand out more as the war goes on.
We have a growing Bounty List for the Hutt Faction- any soldiers or freelancers can try to claim these bounties in any Open thread, or through an attempt discussed by both parties. Also, we have a list of Faction NPCs that you may use in your roleplays- please review those and suggest any you feel would contribute to the faction.
Although we have an impressive ground force, we need activity. Please make an effort to post daily or bi-daily in any battle thread you're in, and make a note in the thread if you'll be away longer. We desperately need a presence in Space- any people who make a Space-oriented commander will receive (at minimum) four ships to command.
We intend to continue our assault on the Republic in full capacity. I know this round was a little confusing to start- I tried a few experiments, some of which I feel worked and some of which didn't. Stay tuned for further orders. Until then, please post here with comments, questions, concerns, and ideas for anything involving the Hutt Faction. As of now, the idea to create new branches of the Hutt Faction will NOT be accepted: this means no special ops branch, no medicine branch, and no bounty hunters- we want to keep unified.
If there is anything I missed, it will be added below. As I said, we need to hear your comments- if we don't, we won't know how to improve! Let's keep our momentum, get some innovation, and work towards becoming the best faction SWRP has seen.
