Website....hmmmmm, yeah. My question had absolutely nothing to do with their website. It's why they keep their powers as Jedi Knight's secret. Unless you're trying to say that since most of the websites pages require a password, it relates to the secrecy of their powers... ----------------------- Private First Class Jakireth Cadrimos

Thats what I'm saying, shouldn't stories be started for the DJO only, so you can "kick ass with a saber" without exposing anything on army missions? Or, if the need arises for the DJK's to join the army in missions only as DJK's, not members of the corps? Like the Jedi did in EP ll in the battle on Geonosis. ----------------------- Private First Class Jakireth Cadrimos

Well, if thats true, maybe we can integrate my other idea about having the DJO participate in army stories along with the squads just as DJK's so they can use their powers to the benefit of the army, but the mission would have to be significantly more difficult and obstacles would need to be made so it wouldn't be so easy with their powers. <-----once again, very long sentence ----------------------- Private First Class Jakireth Cadrimos

The problem with allowing Dark Jedi to use their powers in Army Squad missions (or even Navy Squadron missions) is that the missions must be made more difficult, this has been stated. The probablem with making them more difficult, and then allowing them to use their powers, is that they then become the focus, the main characters. This is highly undesirable, as the goal in the main divisions is either uniformity, or at the very least, allowing everyone a chance. ----------------------- Admiral Japheth Cappadocious, Krath Templar

Well obviously the DJK's would get a little more recognition, but its not like they'd be taking the spotlight from everyone else. The difficulty change wouldn't just be made for them, but the entire army, so it would take cooperation from both the DJO and the Corps to effectively complete the mission. The DJK's would obviously have the upper-hand on certain things, but haven't they earned it? ----------------------- Private First Class Jakireth Cadrimos

Well, if you have, say, three Dark Jedi on a mission with a squad, the mission would have to be intensely difficult. Why? Because a single - skillfull/talented - Dark Jedi could single-handedly infiltrate a base for an assassination mission, information retrieval, etc., and those are considered "somewhat challenging" depending on the security and how many forces are present at the compound.
To have three Dark Jedi on a mission would mean an almost-suicide/impossible mission for any other individual(s). ----------------------- Cleric "Cosmic" Vor'soth

for reference on how the Dark Jedi using their powers can hijack a mission, refer to the ESC competition storyline entitled, "stop! kerest those men!" on the Army Storynet.

Why exactly would it work?
I have read your previous posts but i am asking why do you think it would work.
Correct me if i am wrong, but being in the DJO is a privilege , so not many members can join that right?..Being in a squad is about how to work with the sources given to you. Its about the squad knowing how to handle a problem.
I think the fact that having DJO in one's id line is enough recognition as it is. To be part of DJO requires excellent writing skills if i am correct, hard work and a lot of dedicatiojn. Having that in one's id line would already demand respect.
This is just my thoughts... ----------------------- EL/LCPL Hellra/2SQD/1PLT/1CMP/1REG/1BAT/Tadath/VEA[LoR][ES2C] |

How does recognition as being a part of the DJO come into play with my idea about combining the DJO and army?
Another idea-
If we are obviously against Rebel forces, why not incorporate Jedi into the missions, so the DJO will have something to handle, and the army can offer support with the Jedi, and mainstream Rebel forces. ----------------------- Private First Class Jakireth Cadrimos

It comes into play as it was explained above, it is enough that some members can be DJ while other's can't, the fact that Dj isn't allowed to use their powers makes the squad members equal to each other. |

And right? There's a reason that all Jedi related material has to be cleared by the Dark Council before it can be used in a main divisional story (IE: Light Jedi Master comes out of hiding and starts pwning Stormies). They're just not around right now. Even in the DJO stories we have to limit things drastically... one of many reasons I'm trying to advance the storyline. ----------------------- OO/SM Sierra "Talon" Taurus/HC-3/VEHC/VE[BC][IOC][LoC][SoS][BM][CDS][MSM][MoH]

If you guys want to see some DJO writing. Go to Chapter 8: The Order's Return in the main story comnet. It's right there. Though, they probably have much better and longer stories in their own boards... Plus, if you want to see their stuff, wait a few months, apply, work hard, MAYBE get in, and then see for yourself.
