This week we have seen the General Staff becoming full (since Commander, Maneuvers is CLOSED). Congratulations to Baron promoted to the rank of Brigadier General (BG) and Commander, Operations (CO/GS-3). Also congratulations to the new Executive Officer of the Hammer's Fist (XO/GS-2), former Assistant to the Prefect Rico Stone, who was also promoted from Staff Sergeant (SSG) to Brigadier General (BG).

As posted by the Prefect of the Legion:

PRF/LG Keth at December 9, 2008, 10:08 pm

Troopers, There have been some changes to the General Staff this week.

Entering our ranks is a Veteran member of the Emperor's Hammer and its groups, as our new Commander of Operations he should be your first port of call for any new Operations or Competitions, Congratulations to Brigadier General Baron.

As stated earlier, I have accepted applications for the new Executive Officer. I am somewhat dissapointed at the number of Applications I received, however after reviewing the Applicants, I have reached a decision. The new Executive Officer is a veteran of the Hammer's Fist and the old Infiltrator Wing, he has lots of Command Experience and my complete faith in his abilities, congratulations Brigadier General Rico Stone.

These Officers will be helping to guide the Hammer's Fist and indeed the Emperor's Hammer to new heights. I trust you will draw on their experience and trust their decisions.

So welcome Brigader Generals Stone and Baron!

2. New Legion-wide Competition
While we are working on revamping the Field Manual and other things around the Hammer's Fist a new competition has been released: Prelude To Glory (P.T.G.). Here is the storyline:

Story:
A new General Staff has come to power within the Hammer's Fist Stormtrooper Legion, appointed under the hands of Fleet Commander Grand Admiral Cyric and Executive Officer Sector Admiral Maverick. The corridors of the Legion bases are coming alive, the ships to carry its Troopers across the galaxy are powering up, and a buzz that the once feared Hammer's Fist is alive and well is spreading. But a new enemy is coming alive, arising from the dust as if reborn, threatening the very existence of the Legion. Small hit and run missions have happened on on Carrida II bases and outposts, leaving a Black Fist seal cut into the flesh of the dead each time.

To combat this new threat Legion Executive Officer Brigader General Rico Stone, acting commander of the Legion while Prefect of the Legion, Lieutenant General Keth D'Jek, is at Aurora Prime in meetings with the Emperor's Hammer Command Staff, has dispatched both Vengeance and Redemption Platoons to nearby cities (Vengeance to Vor and Redemption to Er) to search out for answers and possible insurgent strongholds. Their orders are: to gather intelligence and capture or eliminate any Black Fist terrorists.

3. Medal Re-Structure
The Prefect and I have been working hard on getting everything up and going via the Field Manual so we have clear chain of thought throughout the entire Hammer's Fist. We just had the new medals and structure approved by the Executive Officer of the Emperor's Hammer and working on getting them into the database ASAP!

4. Roster Re-Structure
"Too many chiefs, not enough indians," is the thought from one trooper on Pri's Roster Structure. So we have done away with Fireteams (was a bad idea in the first place) and the new structure with be Trooper -> Squad -> Platoon -> Company -> Battalion -> Support Staff -> General Staff. So no more Fireteams or Fireteam Leaders. Changes are being made was we speak.
