OOC: This is for Nazgul's Tour of Duty competition only. Gravin enters the Room full of his pilots. He settles into his chair next to the Podium. He coughs a little. Every one takes there seats. As they do he steps up to the Podium. Gravin starts his speach. "Hello, Pilots and welcome to the breifing of Nazgul. This is a sad time as we are in the middle of a war and losing friends as we go through this. In the end the Vast Empire will be running the Starwars Galaxy in peace in our own ways. We will all live to see better days down the road. Today I bring you good news. The war is steadily going our way and we may prevail in this one. Thats why I came to tell you we have to press harder if we want this victory. Pressing harder means putting our lives in danger more than we ever would have thought possible. We will go into a deep strike or a quick strike mission. We may just have a Corvette with us or even the whole Navy. Our Squad will never quit unless we know we will lose. Never give yourselves to the enemy, always try to break free in any way possible. In saying that, I want Nazgul to go out being number one and known throughout the galaxy as the PUNISHER's. Understood? Good. Now good luck and come back safe." After Gravin's speach every one leave's preparing for something unexpected.   ----------------------- CMDR/OC Gravin/Nazgul 1-1/mSSD Atrus/VEN/VE/(=A=)[VCB] First Owner of I'm Smart pin

Arturus walked back to the Nazgul quarters for a quick discussion with his flight about procedures they would use for this unknown and most likely very dangerous missions.  Then he went back to his quarters and ordered his security droid to grab his large bag of weaponry and bring it to his fighter.  Arturus had installed a special weapons cache in his fighter that could hold many of his auxiliary ground weapons and also eject wiht him if he was shot out so he never worried about losing his equipment.  The cache could also hold med-packs, masks, etc.  Arturus loaded his stormtrooper and ec-11 blaster into the cache and put his automatic pistol into his hip holster.  He put is vibroblade on one boot holster and placed his other pistol in the compartment.  With them he placed grenades, med-packs, gas mask, oxygen equipment, mini-computer, detonators and some small explosives with the detonator caps being placed in another part of  the fighter so as not to explode his craft as he flew.  He also grabbed a small communication device and some rations and water just incase he was shot down on a planet we wanted to be well prepared to not only survive until he could be rescued, but to create as much carnage and destruction as possible.  He made sure everything was in order and secure before closing up everything and heading back to his quarters.  On his way back he stopped short and suddenly realized he had forgotten his most important piece of equipment.  He ran to his quarters and opened the secret comparment in there and took out his full length complete body armor.  Stronger than a stormtrooper's armor, this was camouflaged and could withstand several shots before doing any serious damage to the person.  He quickly ran back to his craft and put this in the equipment cache along with a few more med-packs and other necessary supplies.  Then he gave his last blaster to his security droid and ordered him to guard his fighter carefully sicne he didnt want anyone to discover his body armor, if they could find the secret weapons cache he had installed.  When he arrived at his quarters, he put on his ammo belt and slipped a com unit and another small computer unit into thier slots before ordering his other droid to bring the bag of ammo packs to his fighter and leave them in the care of the security droid.  After he had finished all of this, which had taken the better part of an hour, arturus got out of his flight suit and went to sleep hoping that nothing would wake him until morning or whatever the hell they called in when you are in space.
