Yo, Rangers! The Ranger Gazette will be our monthly updates. There have been quiet a few changes since our last update so, without further ado, Let's do this update!
Thank You
First things first. Thank you guys so much for sticking with us in this transition period. It really means a lot to both Gamov and myself that you guys have been so patient as we bumbled around and attempt to get everything in order. I can tell you now we have some sweet ideas to improve "The Waste Ranger" experience. (more on that in a moment!) We apologize to everyone who's signed up for a mission and found that it was already taken. We are currently in the process of tracking all the threads down that are out there and making sure everything is still active. Will we make mistakes in the future, yes. Will they be due to alcohol consumption? You betcha! (I joke) I wanted to apologize to Taz specifically as I know he has run into this problem a few times for sure. SORRY BUDDY! This process will take some time to really hammer out so, I apologize now for any inconvenience this may cause. We're workin on it ALRIGHT!
New Things on the Horizon
Next, In the next few day we will be implementing some freaking cool things including out very own Waste Ranger Bounty Board! (W00t woot!) Starting off the board will have fifteen bounties ranging from easy to hard with five missions in each category. The missions will net you credits, experience and Merits. The bounties will also be open to all rangers from any division! So grab you partner and get to catching the criminals in the outer rim! Now, you're probably asking yourself "What the heck are Merits?" Good question! Merits will be the way we as Rangers distinguish ourselves against the rank having factions out there. The more Merits you have the better. This system will be implemented with the release of the bounty board so if you are currently in a mission you don't have to worry about it being taken away! I'd never do that to anyone, unless they were like totes mean to meh. The Merit system will be explained in more detail as I complete the bounty board. :) Be stoked. These Merits will go on you're roster Picture and will make all your fellow rangers totally jelly. Now, on to missions!
Missions and Allies
Gamov and I are currently working on Mission Arc's for the other divisions. See that awesome thing done for M.O.S.E.S, yeah we're doing that for the other divisions! The battle to protect the independent worlds must go on and to really go after this the other divisions need to get on it dog gon it! The missions for P.R.I.C.E will be posted this week at some point. (Like when RL gets it's foot off my throat.) I really hope you guys like them. :)
Our Mission's will be Division specific. Let's face it any martial force has to have regimes devoted to specific duties. That's what the division's are for! That being said we do have Honorary Rangers that will be allowed to take action along side our Members in these division specific missions. Our Honorary Rangers are pretty much the bee's knees. While on the subject of Friends and Allies, I'd just like to mention that we are in fact still Allies with The New Jedi Order, and Clan Orar! Zonju V will continue to throw your support at them like crazy! We like friends. Friends are nice.

This is where I turn it over to the members of the Waste Rangers to assist in creating the Tech, missions, and bounties that make up the awesomeness that is the Waste Rangers. I will tell you up front. Gamov and I withhold the ability to alter and or change any submission given. We won't be booty heads about it, but if something will endanger the rangers or put us at odds with one of our allies we'll step in. :) We will be sure to talk out any changes with the creator before out right altering the work of another. Your opinions matter and the missions, tech, and bounties you create matter just as much!
Line of Armor- The rangers need protection! Lether dusters and cowboy hats look Kriffin awesome, but they don't help much against: blaster bolts, lightsabers, slugs, thermal detonators, shock staves... ah you get it!
Missions- The Rangers are in need of missions. Gamov and I are only two people. We can only create so much at one time. But, if you feel inspired and want to assist us in this constant grind of creating mission's and Arc's then by all means "C'MON DOOOOWN!"
Bounties- I'll tell you now. I've already got the first 15 done. I just need to make them look as awesome as the rest of the ranger stuff. However, To keep a constant stream of missions between arcs and ally missions I'd like as many of these as possible!

We'll show the galaxy that the Rangers are far more then just a bunch or ruggedly handsome cowboys and cowgirls! Remember. The Rangers are a family. We work together IC like a single unit attempting to stop injustice in the galaxy, so let's come together to Chuck Norris round house kick evil in the face!!!

Currently, The Ranger's are in need of:
Line of Weapons- The rangers currently have a proverbial starter pack of weapons, and we want to enhance that! Any and all ideas will be considered, but not all will be chosen. Don't be discouraged! Line of Armor- The rangers need protection! Lether dusters and cowboy hats look Kriffin awesome, but they don't help much against: blaster bolts, lightsabers, slugs, thermal detonators, shock staves... ah you get it!
