Recruitment message: Sith Troopers

The frequencies on the public HoloNet began to static before switching over to a screen, the vision of a red-armored man standing before them, his face completely hidden behind a gleaming black visor.

"Greetings. I am Colonel SHK-666 of the 'Dark Force of the Sith'. Doubtless you will have seen the Holonet recording of the declaration by his Supreme Majesty Emperor Validus of the Sith regarding the reformation of his Empire.

It is time to serve your Empire, Citizens. It is time to bring peace and stability to a thousand worlds. The Galaxy has descended into chaos, anarchy, greed and corruption. Other organizations have tried to bring order to the maelstrom, and have failed - brought down by their own fractures, weaknesses and...depravity. Only through one strong enough to defeat the powers of dystropia can peace be achieved.

Only by serving Emperor Validus will your homes, your livelihoods, your children, your future be saved.

The Empire needs you, Citizens, the Empire will look after you and your Galaxy! The Empire will bring you peace."

A moment of silence occurs as he stared at the audience through the screens.

"Join us. Show your honor, your pride and become a Trooper in the Army of the Empire, the 'Dark Force of the Sith'.

We will be accepting applicants immediately. You will be taught a great many things that will not only help you as the Empire's first and last line of defense, but as a person in yourself. A bright future awaits you in the 'Dark Force of the Sith'. We will see you there."

He goes silent once more before turning and walking off screen, the HoloNet going dead and back to static before returning to its previously scheduled programming.

GAR probing mission failed

The Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) was discovered to have sent a squad of Clones to scout Byss today. The Sith Imperial forces were swiftly aware of the infraction into their territory and rapidly dispatched the combatants with minimal losses.

Failed Mandalorian invasion of Byss

For those in distant parts of the Galaxy, the combined might of two Mandalorian Clans descended on Byss today and sought to take over a communications bunker, into which they barracaded themselves.

After a standoff of some two hours, they were finally rooted out and a battle raged on the planetary surface and above in the air. On the ground, Byss forces were utterly victorious, smashing the Mando'ade.

The only casualty was General C'Ore who after taking down two Verde in single combat flew his fighter alone against a heavily armed dropship. Despite killing the pilot of the vessel, the other occupants were able to turn the weaponry of the larger ship and incinerate the drive engines, sending him crashing down into the lavafields. Somehow, he has survived the crash and thanks to Darth Revanche is recovering in the medical center. He is expected to survive.
