    The finalized roster can be found in the Lance sub-thread. This is just the rough draft.

    Alpha Lance
    -Magnus
    -Trevnor
    -Val
    -Ghiest

    Beta Lance
    -Axevid
    -Crave
    -David
    -Killbox/Barbie

    Gamma Lance (needs lance leader)
    -Mostly Harmless (EST, mostly evenings and nights)
    -Moro Ibex (after 5pm EST)
    -Tzeentch
    -Kith Kinda

    Delta Lance
    -Dihm
    -Skwi
    -Sheo
    -Gihzmo

    Auxiliary (fill in players)
    -Hordac
    -Orc

    Unassigned pilots
    -Kith Kinda (I'm CST. I normally get home from work around 2PM CST and can play up until 10 CST... generally speaking)
    -Wolf Ward (After 18.00 GMT weekdays except for Mondays / Thursdays where if I can would be 21.00 GMT onwards. Wednesdays are a no go. Weekends would/should be free except for Company Practice on Saturdays at 20.00 GMT)
    -Little Dave (Weekdays, GMT)
    -Deathwatch (Any time at the end of the day [read: after 7pm] except Wednesday and Sunday,GMT)
    -Hunter Gamma (After 3-4 PM GMT)

    --------

    Unassigned pilots need to start looking on where they want to be placed. Gamma Lance is still in need of a Lance Leader. This comes with a few, but not overly taxing responsibilities. I've put a lot of work into streamlining things to make it easier for new players. You will mostly just be required to coordinate with your lance members and myself for planning your drop schedule. Other minor duties may include assisting your lance members in mech upgrades or helping them plan character skill progression... it is all fairly easy once you get the hang of it.

    Generally, I prefer to keep it 4 people per lance, but I am willing to make exceptions for players who are willing and eager to put in the time..

    Less active players should designate themselves as Auxiliary.

    Let me know if I forgot to add you!

    SPACE IS EXTREMELY LIMITED! PREFERENCE GOES TO PLAYERS WHO ACTIVELY COMMUNICATE AND CAN FOLLOW DIRECTIONS!

    DO NOT SIGN UP FOR A LANCE SLOT UNLESS YOU CAN COMMIT TO DROPPING AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK!


    For pilots worried about not getting in: do not get discouraged. people drop out on occasions and we will do our best to accommodate for you.

    List updated. Hordac is occupied with RL stuff. he has been moved to Auxiliary.

    Waiting on confirmation from Orc. He was interested before but has been somewhat absent as of late. Will update his status tomorrow.

    Orc is sitting out as well. We have an open slot in Gamma. Anyone who wants it needs to speak up and get involved; need to make sure your character is 100% ready to go.

    Good point. We might just lump all you new GMT guys together and make a new lance (epsilon?). However, that many players involved is really pushing the limits of my GM abilities. A good balance might be to have you guys play a separate and heavily simplified "newbie campaign" that would allow you guys time to get used to the mechanics of the game... at least until I can get some more GM assistance.

    You are good to go as well. Would you and LD just like to do your own mini-campaign until we can get something better sorted out? Sorry I can't do more than that at the moment. :sad:

    =============================

    @ Wolf Ward: still need all of your character info. be sure to provide ALL the information I need:
    http://www.uobgaming.com/showthread.php?1713-Post-your-character-info!/page3

    @ Kith Kinda: you are more or less ready to go, but I still need your character avatar. If you want in on Gamma Lance, I suggest you speak up and be heard.

    @ Deathwatch: same as mentioned before with the mini-campaign... or is OpFor more to your liking? (it would be easier for me, for sure)

    Gamma works for me. I'll get an avatar as soon as possible. do I send to you or does it get uploaded to the drop box account?

    I checked the posts and didn't see anyting about an avatar. What are you looking for and are there any size/content restrictions?

    When in doubt, ALWAYS post in your assigned lance thread... that goes for everyone. There is no way I can stay organized if everyone pm's me with requests.

    And ALWAYS read any directions in the first post in such threads before posting... it pleases me...
