Rico, you are not supposed to number your members. Those numbers represent Staff Officers, and there is no squadron staff, except the Commander, who is always number six. Also, your members do not need to state their assignment (rear, flank, ...) in their sig, because those assignments do change "on the fly" in real combat. (Note: we will have the Roger Wilco speach tool included in BC:M, so you will be able to tell them what to do.) Regards. ------------------ Fleet Cmdr. Joe Gudihl GCV-Dark Star Prime Fleet "Remember, we are trained professionals... Don't try this at home!" Official Tester, Battlecruiser Series

Well, as a matter of fact, it is the job of the Fleet's Personnel Office, led by G1 Cmdr. Robertson, to assign commanders to the Wings! ------------------ Fleet Cmdr. Joe Gudihl GCV-Dark Star Prime Fleet "Remember, we are trained professionals... Don't try this at home!" Official Tester, Battlecruiser Series

IMHO, Commander is batter suited than Leader. Or we could use "CO" (=Commanding Officer)...

MAX, please change your signature to: Cmdr. Maxamillian (MAX) GCV-Dreadnaught Prime Fleet G2 Security/Intelligence; G3 Tactics (acting) "Retreat? Hell!" Your ICQ can be seen in your personal informaton, where you should also enter your time zone (entry: Location). Cmdr. Robertson, as G4 Logistics Officer, you have been given command over Star Base Earth, where the 1st Orbital Marine Battalion has been stationed. Change your assignment line to: G1 Personnel; G4 Logistics, and CO Star Base Earth Regards. ------------------ Fleet Cmdr.

Commanders, this fleet structure has not (yet) fulfilled the guidelines Derek set, so I am working it over with Uncle Rattler (yep, Insurgent One). As a side effect, I can correct a few typos, like Cmdr. Pherret as Leader of two Wings. If in doubt of your position in PRIME, consult the Prime Fleet Positions thread. Expect this be done at the end of the week. Regards. ------------------ Fleet Cmdr. Joe Gudihl GCV-Dark Star Prime Fleet "Remember, we are trained professionals... Don't try this at home!"

Hmm, this line is getting pretty long. We should use abbrevisions, like: Gamma Wing, 16 Cmdr., 1st Squad. (The Diamondbacks)

Rico, your signature says it correctly: Gamma Wing, 16 Commander, 1st Squadron means you are assigned to the Gamma Wing, 1st Squadron. You are also its leader, thus the x6 "job", because number 6 is always leader. Sorry for the confusion... Btw., if you don't like the 16, leave it out. Just be aware that it's you if this appeared in Comm messages. [This message has been edited by Thomas Siemens (edited 03-06-2000).]

Cmdr. Williams, yes, you are part of the 1st squadron in Gamma Wing. The fleet structure represents an old state, just before your reporting in. Also, the 1st squadron is not yet reassingned to Gamma Wing. This will be done in a few days... Regards. ------------------ Fleet Cmdr. Joe Gudihl GCV-Dark Star Prime Fleet "Remember, we are trained professionals... Don't try this at home!" Official Tester, Battlecruiser Series

Great!

Ooops. That's a typo! Hmm, this should have been the final version, Derek surely rips my head off if I send him another, after the deadline. Ack. Hmm, should I risk it, should I risk it?

Badgerious, I have just sent the final Structure file, including Personnel (as a jpeg file) to Derek. Made two important changes, because time was running out: * Cmdr. Rico 'V_ger' Jansen is now (acting) Squadron Leader, and * Cmdr. Kirk Stryker has been "renamed" to Cmdr. Kirk Stroiker (only in my Structure, he still has to reregister), as proposed by you.

quote: whats particularly worrying, is that even Prime haven't been able to get their act in gear. Sorry for the delay. Should be in your email right now... Thomas (a.k.a. Gudihl) Official Tester, Battlecruiser Series [This message has been edited by Thomas Siemens (edited 03-05-2000).]

Should be in your email, Derek...

quote: Kirk, I can't find any reference to a Cmdr. Mark Sharmen. Could you post or Email me his Email or ICQ, or just let him know he's been promoted, and have him report in here, please. Scharmen reported in the PRIME FLEET members, read! thread, 2000-01-08 07:26 PM. Thomas (a.k.a. Gudihl) Official Tester, Battlecruiser Series

Ron, my ship's name is GCV-Dark Star. No problem here - I think it is the only ship in one of the GALCOM fleets carrying that name. IMHO it is no problem if ships with different signatures used the same name, for ex. GCV-Dark Star, ICV-Dark Star, ECV-Dark Star, and UCV-Dark Star are different ships belonging to different fleets. Btw., he is my successor in commanding the Marauders Wing of Wraith. If he needed a "Dark Star" as ship name, he would be given command over my old lady. It used to be the Marauders flag ship anyway.

A Prime Fleet Weg Page (or even, *gasp* Site) is planned as the next project in schedule. Now that we have an active Public Relations Office (hi, Mark! *evil grin*)... I just want to sort out this structure mess first, so that Prime is not totally unprepared once Multiplayer starts.

Welcome aboard (active) Prime Fleet, Commander. Please report to Cmdr. Badgerius here! Regards. ------------------ Fleet Cmdr. Joe Gudihl GCV-Dark Star Prime Fleet "Remember, we are trained professionals... Don't try this at home!" Official Tester, Battlecruiser Series

Commanders, the good old CMDR ROSTER is off, that leaves us with 18 active members at the moment, plus Cmdr. Somerset (currently at Wraith), plus Derek himself of course! Derek has extended the deadline to finish the whole Fleet Structure to Monday, as you can read here in the Fleet Related Discussions Forum. I want all information you want to provide until, say, Saturday. That leaves me with one to two days to glue it all together. Btw., any idea how to get a .jpg file out of a .doc file fast? I've got the whole Positions Sheet at home as a StarWriter 5.0 document (.sdw), but can easily save it as a MS Word document. Max, please take one more look at the Prime Fleet Signatures thread!

Take a look here, and you should get the idea, why Derek placed this suspension. Thomas (a.k.a. Gudihl) Official Tester, Battlecruiser Series

LOL

Mark, welcome to your new office(s)! Btw., those are two jobs - we are sorry for any inconvenience... Please use the standard Prime Fleet Sig, or Derek will surely rip our heads off! Done - - MG Badgerius, good idea! We should also make Cmdr. Wren S15 Staff Chief, Alpha Wing, and Cmdr. Meyer S45 Staff Chief, Delta Wing. Ack, we are running out of active Commanders. Hmm, the rest would hardly make up a squadron. I have to think about a new roll call soon... Regards ------------------ Fleet Cmdr.

quote: Thomas, we're getting pretty close to the SC's deadline. Should we start just handing out positions arbritrarily? Done that, see the new Prime Fleet Positions thread. Heh, I nearly missed that deadline, because I set 03-01 as my own deadline for the Prime Fleet structure... Btw., I am waiting for comments and/or propositions. Otherwise the structure (including all jobs) will be sent to Derek as proposed... Note: all important themes from this thread have been moved to their own threads. I wonder if I should close thise one and open a new General Discussion thread or Propositions thread in this forum. Regards. ------------------ Fleet Cmdr. Joe Gudihl GCV-Dark Star Prime Fleet "Remember, we are trained professionals... Don't try this at home!" Official Tester, Battlecruiser Series

As time is of the essence (see here!), I have added some propositions to my above posting behind the names of the (yet) unassigned Commanders. Any comments on this? ------------------ Fleet Cmdr. Joe Gudihl GCV-Dark Star Prime Fleet "Remember, we are trained professionals... Don't try this at home!" Official Tester, Battlecruiser Series

Ack, just found this in the Fleet Related Discussions Forum: quote: By March 1st, I need the fleet structures for each fleet, sent to me by the fleet commander, complete with the names of the appointed officers, station assignments etc. I don't need the names of the actual fleet members; just the appointed officers and the structure. If I don't get this by midnight on that day, I will either kill the fleet or fire the fleet leader for incompetence. And remove it from the game. Guys, we do not want to start from scratch, therefore I need propositions for the appointed officers today, otherwise I make them up! Discuss this in the Prime Fleet Positions thread. Thomas (a.k.a. Gudihl) Official Tester, Battlecruiser Series [This message has been edited by Thomas Siemens (edited 02-27-2000).]

Thanks for the forum, Derek! It is very appreciated. Thomas (a.k.a. Gudihl) Official Tester, Battlecruiser Series
