Greetings Troopers!

One of the long term clans who play First Strike, RSF have decided to organise a gaming event this coming Saturday, all are welcome and it will be held on the First Strike Dev's Rebel Defiance server. Communications facilities will also be provided through the FS Ventrilo server channel should you choose to use it to heighten the fun and teamwork.

So we hope to see you there for some epic and fun games. The details for the event are as follows:

The when: Saturday October 20th 18:30 GMT

The where: To be held on the Rebel Defiance First Strike Server

The talk: Ventrilo Server: vent-uk.gamingdeluxe.co.uk :4917

We'd also like to take this opportunity to tease you regarding some further developments along a similar line. As we've mentioned before we're looking at developing a new campaign for all First Strike players to get involved with, and this will be surfacing very soon with FSDev Twigs taking the lead on this with some very interesting ideas on how we can make this new ongoing event a unique new experience for FS players. Here is a sneak peek at a first draft of a new First Strike Campaign Galaxy Map featuring all the Star Wars worlds currently featured within the mod. This map will be instrumental in determining how the outcome of battles will lead to the selection of the next location you will battle over.

Interesting times ahead, look out for more information on the upcoming campaign as it develops.

Until next time,

See you on the Battlefield Troopers!

Recommencement of Service

Greetings Troopers!

We'd just like to give people a quick update regarding a recent disruption to service of both the mod First Strike in general and the dev team run Rebel Defiance server.

The server housing all the content involved with the development of First Strike was recently closed down and the transferal of all that data to a new location unfortunately did not go as smoothly as we had hoped. There were a few issues with ensuring that the launcher successfully pointed to the new server when looking for updates, which in turn meant that anyone installing First Strike for the first time during this period would not be able to successfully gain access to the latest updates essential for running the game and ensuring that you're running the same up to date version of the mod that everyone else has. This has now been successfully rectified and anyone wishing to try out First Strike should now be able to do so without issue.

Additionally in a bizarrely timed unrelated event our service provider for our game server also went through a time of transition the same week resulting in our server going down as warnings about the impending change became lost to our junk folder. Fear not however as this issue has also been resolved, and as of now both the game server and all facilities related to First Strike are open for business again with a full recommencement of service.

So pop along on Sunday for a night of good old fashioned intergalactic fragging.

See you out there Troopers!
