Daetrin[Admin] Posted May 26, 2009 Report Posted May 26, 2009 Hey - I just noticed that we are one guy shy of being at 50% of the number of MEPD Police Officers in the Legion. Who will be magic #68 that will push us over 50%? (for reference, there are 16 Lancers Legion-wide). Quote
Smitty Posted May 26, 2009 Report Posted May 26, 2009 (for reference, there are 16 Lancers Legion-wide). I plan to up that number by one. I'm building a TB helmet at the present time Quote
TK-2126_MD[TK] Posted May 27, 2009 Report Posted May 27, 2009 Thats great news!!! i think it has to do with our command staff and members Quote
TK-1287 Posted May 27, 2009 Report Posted May 27, 2009 My ESB will be done in a few weeks Bought my leather dye today as a matter of fact!! Quote
Murray1134[501st] Posted May 27, 2009 Report Posted May 27, 2009 Donations are still being accepted! I'm a helmet (halfway there!) and a blaster away from applying. Quote
TK8114[TK] Posted May 27, 2009 Report Posted May 27, 2009 Yet there are 4.8 times as many stormtroopers than sandtroopers registered in the legion... Quote
RocketFinch[TK] Posted May 28, 2009 Report Posted May 28, 2009 I am so close. I just need the correct Hovi-Mix aerators and a D-ring for my blaster and I believe I should be good to go for ANH stunt. Funds are a little tight right now (unemployed and looking for a new job) but I am saving up for set of Stomper's Hovi-mix and just need to find time to put a D-ring on my blaster. It's so close that I can almost taste it. Hopefully I can be EIB by the end of summer. Quote

Daetrin[Admin] Posted May 28, 2009 Author Report Posted May 28, 2009 And I think I have an extra set of hovis. Let me check...& shoot me a PM. Quote
RocketFinch[TK] Posted May 29, 2009 Report Posted May 29, 2009 PMs sent. Thanks armored brothers Quote
ThayNerd[TK] Posted May 29, 2009 Report Posted May 29, 2009 Seth the d-ring went out today. Let me know when you get it. Quote
TK-8290 Posted May 30, 2009 Report Posted May 30, 2009 That is an interesting number. I would imagine it is because the sandy has more moving parts such as the backpack and pouches to contend with. The backpack is no joke and the pouches are sometimes hard to find. However, I like the TD more than the TK. I know that is not going to make me popular here, but the storm trooper is the difinitive icon, while the sandtrooper is a nice deviation into the dirty and gritty side of trooping. I realy love them both.... argh! Yet there are 4.8 times as many stormtroopers than sandtroopers registered in the legion... Quote

I realy love them both.... argh! We won't hold it against you (at least I won't) I've always had a fondness for the sandys too. When my TK gets too roughed up to meet Lord Vader's standards it will be converted to a TD. Quote
firebladejedi[TK] Posted May 30, 2009 Report Posted May 30, 2009 I am currently working on upgrading both my esb and anh costumes at present, so i may apply for eib status again. Does the same member having more than 1 eib status count as more eib cleared troopers? Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted May 30, 2009 Author Report Posted May 30, 2009 One can always do both, and many do. TD is a nice change of pace, but it's great to just TK too. Pack, pauldron, pouches, BFG - they do look cool but they carry a cost in weight and encumbrance... Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted May 30, 2009 Author Report Posted May 30, 2009 I am currently working on upgrading both my esb and anh costumes at present, so i may apply for eib status again. Does the same member having more than 1 eib status count as more eib cleared troopers? No - we count the individuals, not the costumes. At some point we may highlight both, e.g. 100 members with 104 costumes. It wouldn't be hard to do. Quote
firebladejedi[TK] Posted May 30, 2009 Report Posted May 30, 2009 Thanks for the clarification on this paul Quote
RocketFinch[TK] Posted June 2, 2009 Report Posted June 2, 2009 Seth the d-ring went out today. Let me know when you get it. Thayne, The D-ring arrived today. Looks great. Now to just get it on my blaster. Thanks a lot. Quote
ThayNerd[TK] Posted June 2, 2009 Report Posted June 2, 2009 Thayne,The D-ring arrived today. Looks great. Now to just get it on my blaster. Thanks a lot. No problem. Glad it made it to you safely. Troopers helping troopers. Quote

Who will be magic #68 that will push us over 50%? (for reference, there are 16 Lancers Legion-wide). So did we get number 68??? we had to, there has been a number of troopers that submited EIB. Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted July 19, 2009 Author Report Posted July 19, 2009 They are at 141. We're at 69 - still a few shy of 50%. I'm sure there are a few folks just a mod or two away that could push us over... Quote

Once my belt from Mark and t-tracks from Smitty get here, I should be ready for 501st submission within a week and EIB shortly thereafter. BTW -- anyone making accurate blaster d-rings? Quote
Dmian Posted July 20, 2009 Report Posted July 20, 2009 I plan to go all the way with my AP I mean 501 status + EIB in one go. So I'll need a lot of help when my armor arrives. I'll make a building thread so you can tutor my progress. The hardest part will be the blaster. I plan to build mine following BBC's plans. But I'll probably order a kit so I can troop sooner. I'll see... Quote
