It's been fairly slow around here lately, hence no report last week. However, there are a couple of new developments so here we go

Championship Ladders

We are very close to having the CHL begin. Only one participant is needed for it to begin. So if you're interested head right on over to the ACC site and click on that "Ladders" link

*Staff Needed *

Very soon one of our long-time staff members, Telona, will be leaving us due to RL. As such, one more trainer will be needed to take her place. If you're interested, feel free to apply. You can find out what you need to apply here.

*Training Changes *

Something that has been discussed or in plans for awhile will see the light of day within the next feww weeks.
I have begun talks with the Clans in having the "training" portion of the ACC handled within Clans. Those then needing extra help to become qualified would find that help within their Clan. This will still be administered by the Staff Trainers, who will also continue to run the qualification matches. A larger announcement will be made when this is all finalized.

*Custom Weapons *

We are looking at changing some of Custom Weapon aspects. The idea is to have a "list" of Custom Weapons, much like the Standard Weapons. Instead of putting points in a Custom Weapons slot, your weapon instead will be located on a permanent list, with a detail description, image (if possible), weapon type (sword, blaster, etc...) and wielder (your name). As such, you will then only need points in a specific weapon type(s) to use your custom weapon. This will also allow you to use "regular" weapons, without dividing the points. Armour, items and other special abilities will continue to use the custom slots and must have points in them

Until the list is ready, please don't change your custom weapons. However, starting now, please [Log in to view e-mail addresses] the custom weapons you currently use, with their description and an image, if it has one. When the list is ready, I will make an announcement and your character sheets can then be updated to reflect the changes. Weapons must still follow the same guidelines, and will be denied if they don't. Also remember that there are limits to how many weapons you may bring to one battle.

Random Points

Just a couple of side comments. I've done a little draft for the new "home" of the ACC. Nothing fancy, but having it looked over to see if anything missed. Hoping to finish off a few more of the fictional points of the ACC. This will also eventually tie into a co-op event; something that hasn't been run in some time, but should be fun and something a little different from the run-of-the-mill battle

Closing

As always, if anyone ever has any questions or comments for me, the best place to reach me is through e-mail at [Log in to view e-mail addresses]. You can also ask general questions about the ACC on this forum post. Have a great week.

In darkness,
