Armada Newsletter

By Vetnor, in Star Wars: Armada

It maybe a little too early but I was thinking it would be good if there was a Forum Newsletter.

In other Forums I'm a member of they always produce a newsletter filled with tactics, fleet builds, AARs, fan fiction and other articles.

I know we don't have a lot to contribute yet but we could start organizing/preparing for a newsletter after Wave1 or Wave2.

What do other members think?

A newsletter would be a good idea. Many of the points you mentioned tend to be scattered all over the net so having the content consolidated in one place would be nice.

My droid approves :P

I would be interested.

Your ideas intrigue me. Please let me know when you have a newsletter I can subscribe to.

Much win, would subscribe. :D

I have produced newsletters in the past but I was thinking this could be a community project.

Like many I'm no expert on SW:Armada so the newsletter will rely heavily on contributions from the Forum members.

I'll start off with a couple of possible names for the newsletter, if members have a suggestion please do so.

ComLink

Command Post

Imperial Vs Rebels

Is it possible to run polls on this forum? If so once we have a list of names I will run a poll for the forum to choose which name.

Sections/articles will cover -

Unit discussion/analysis/history

Fleet Tactics

After Action Reports

Fan Fiction

FAQ

and more......

upcoming products/predictions etc would be a nice article as well. maybe not every issue, but when news breaks.

I like Command Post.

I am in for this.

That sounds like something I would really enjoy reading. I doubt I would be able to provide 'newsletter' with valuable content though.

One question: do you want to create newsletter or ezine?

Command Post is good, but not enough Star-Warsy to me. Imps vs Rebels is thematic but I don't like it. Maybe something related to the only fleet battle in entire trylogy?

Endor Post?

Besides, I think this ezine needs meta analysis section.

Would you like a COMPNOR column for the Imperial point of view?

I like ComLink but not Star Wars enough.

i like the first 2 options. or perhaps seeing as it's newspaper fitting

Imperial Sun

Rebellion News Network (RNN) or it can work both ways and have (INN)

Rebel's Digest

Coruscant Daily

you get the idea

Edited by executor

What about a "paintjob/ Conversion of the Week" section (West Coruscant Customs)

Names

Kuati Drives Digest

Bilbringi buegle

Outer Rim Cryer

I like ComLink but not Star Wars enough.

I think Comlink is pretty SW, but it's a small-scale name for a big scale game, as a comlink is a small hand-held device.

Of the names above, I like Outer Rim Fryer the best, but maybe a different after noun, like Outer Rim Register or Outer Rim Herald. O.R. Holograph?

Or, go with the Mid Rim... I don't know. I'm just stirring the pot.

Love the idea! How about something like...

Dispatches from the Front

...works for me. "Missives" might work as well.
