Do you know anyone who speaks in anagrams, well I do
The Independent Legion, now that's a military unit that's stayed off the radar for a while, and for good reason, as nobodies seen or heard from the leader Noyst in about 2 and ½ months. (What's with leaders going AWOL these days.) During that time we have become the Legionnaires that don't really do anything, essentially a gentleman’s club for the noble few. Now this has our chain of command in taters, Kronos Q is the “official” MU leader as he got the admin to change the MU leadership to himself so we can once again accept new members and bury the corpses that have been laying around for quite a while now. I'm the man who's gone and decided to get this Legion up and running again, just some nobody who has had some spare time during his holiday's and decided to use my brain and get up and do something to stave of the boredom of being stuck in a cottage with limited internet connection with nothing but rain outside. Hoping to get the Legion rebooted I've been contacting our members, finding out who's active and still willing to be apart of this Legion and contacting Treian to organize using his factories for housing members of the IL to work in the slave pits, because as much as I want to I'm still a new guy with a limited amount of productivity output.
Membership
Even thought the Legion technically has 27 members, not all of them are 'in' the Legion, some of them are dead, banned, inactive, don't want to be apart of the Legion anymore or just haven’t replied to my mails. At the time of this writing we have 13 members of the Legion willing to rebuild the Legion by going back to the slave pits and in return regaining their supply, if there are any members of the IL reading this and haven’t replied to my mail, REPLY, I've done lots to advertise this, mail, bulletins in the MU message board and a forum post here (insert hyperlink). We would like to have a minimum membership of 15 people so we can fill Treian's weapon's factory and the 2 RM companies that he has. So for now membership to the IL is open to everyone, but membership is limited as we currently can only have 25 members working in companies so in addition to our 13 members we will accept 12 more Legionaries if no more current legionnaires join in on the restoration of the IL, all I ask is you mail me in advance while placing in your application. This is so I can relay to Kronos Q what applications to accept and to run simulations of our production output and operating costs, so when you place an application their may be up to a 72 hour wait before you are accepted.
Production
As of this writing we have 2 Rubber companies, a Q5 weapons factory, a Q2 food factory and a hunting lodge. (Treian has offered to let us use his Q3 food factory, though I'd rather not overwhelm him with workers.) We are currently looking for anyone who has a Q5 food factory and 2 Hunting Lodge's and is willing to let the Legion use these as slave pits. Anyone who is willing to offer Q5 factories and the appropriate RM companies there after, that we can use as pits is welcome. (and awesome in my books if that counts for anything).
This will allow the Legion to expand further. The conditions for having workers of the IL work for you is as follows.
1. Send all finished products of the Legion sent to me when all products are made or it reaches, 16:00 erep time so that I can distribute supplies for the next day
There's only one condition, in exchange you will be supplied with a safety net of supplies to cover the RM for finished products if members of the IL don't work and will will be given RM at the start of the day if our workers can't produce enough RM for the finished products if they all work.
Supply Drop
All supplies will be handed out a day in advance in the evening. The supply for the IL has been temporarily reduced from 6 Q5 tanks and 300 wellness, 6 days a week to 4 Q5 tanks and 200 wellness 5 days a week, about a $1325 dollar value. Supplies will be sent Sunday evening to Thursday evening to cover Monday-Friday Saturday and Sunday's supplies will be sold on the market to cover operating costs. In addition to the decreased supply the weapon's only supply drop (50% more Q5 weapons in exchange for no food) will be discontinued until the Legion's supply, funds and membership stabilize.
The Restoration Plan
Phase 1 of 3...
In the first phase of the IL restoration plan we begin organizing workers and finding a place for them to work. I had originally planned to have people back to work this week (Monday or Tuesday) but to have the best organization I will have members of the IL back to work on Friday at the end of this week if all goes well. The first three days of work will have no supply, as Saturday and Sunday already are no supply days this is no problem. Monday will also feature no supply the reason being to create a net of extra funds to supply players housing IL members with the RM safety net I mentioned above. If you find you can not work in these first three days due to a lack of RM, please be patient and try working later as the RM safety net has not been fully integrated yet. (1-2 weeks)
Phase 2 of 3...
This is the supply drop testing phase for the IL. Pretty self explanatory, People work I test different supply drops, if it runs to high a surplus I increase the supply, when we run a deficit, I decrease the supply. Supply will also be changed to accommodate the influx of Legionnaires. (3-4 week)
Phase 3 of 3...
This is the Standard phase, in short it means that the Legion is back to 100% working condition, stable supply and stable membership. Supply will be stable and will be changed on an infrequent basis. You can expect to see the weapon's only supply drop to return in a month's time after we reach this phase.
Open IRC Discussion
In addition to an open forum post in the EPIC forums here (insert link) I will be holding an open IRC discussion on the #EPICan channel on August 16th at 17:00 erep time (8:00 GMT-5 [EST] and 5:00PM GMT-8 [PST]) If you are unable to attend the discussion but still want to have a real time discussion please feel free to contact me and we can organize something for a later date.
I encourage everyone to ask questions and have debate in the comments section, if you want to spread the word of the IL restoration please vote this article to the front page but please don't leave a comment like v or v+s, I know your well meaning and I appreciate your votes and subscriptions but please don't clog up the comments with unproductive comments, I'm open to any criticism as long as it is constructive criticism.
