Greetings Crewman Catus, welcome to the Vast Empire.

My name is Ibram Tyrol, and i will be you're operator whilst you train here at the Acadamy. If you have any questions at all, simply go to the message centre, and type in my full name into the recipient's box, along with your queries.

To get you started, I'm now going to direct you to our wiki page, Where most of the training materials are kept.

This can be found here.

To begin your training, you must first create your character. Having clicked on the link above, you can navigate to the page by clicking on Basic Training, Flight School, and then Chapter 1
(quick link:here)

Before going to Flight School, you may want to give Imperial Initiation (II) a quick read - it gives a brief introduction to life as a pilot in the star wars universe.

Once you have followed the instructions set out in Chapter 1, please post it here for marking, and we can advance you along to the next stage.

Whilst you train, i also recommend you get onto IRC (Or Instant Rely Communication). Most, if not all of the Vast Empire's active members frequent the IRC channels, so you will be able to find many a friend and mentor in this place. To get onto IRC, either follow the "JavaChat" link from the main page (It's in the left hand column) or download an IRC client (e.g. mIRC) and follow the instructions in the MainComnet forum.

Once again, on behalf of the VENA, welcome the the Navy, we hope you enjoy your stay.

Operator Tyrol
