Fire Teams revisited.

[captsafe66[Admin]]

Greetings Troopers.

 

I just wanted to touch on the Fire Team progam for some of the newer members that may not be familiar with it.  Here is the original posting describing the program:

 

The Fire Team program is completely optional, and is intended to help form a common identity and spirit of camaraderie among 501st Legion stormtroopers in the same geographic area/garrison that troop together.

Fire Teams are not officially recognized by the 501st Legion nor the FISD, although they will be able to access a Fire Team sub-forum on the detachment website. Because Fire Teams are unofficial groups, they cannot have any 501st or FISD markings, including 501st Legion, 501st, Legion logos, Vader's Fist etc. on their branding or logos. However, Teams will be allowed to use any unique markings at informal events provided they follow these guidelines.

Guidelines

• No 501st or FISD markings. Period.
• Any active Legion member with a valid stormtrooper costume in the specified geographic area can join.
• The Team can create a name, logo, backstory, etc. for itself (names usually contain Fire Team, though this isn't required).
• A list of each Team (with their specific "Teams Name") with a current list their members will be kept in the Fire Team sub-forum on the Detachment website.
• A Team member must troop at least twice per year to maintain status as a member. Two or more Team members must troop together once per year to keep the group active.

Merchandising

• Again, no 501st or FISD markings.
• Merchandising will only be limited by the imagination of the Fire Team.
• Any merchandising should be submitted to the detachment, or through proper Legion channels.
• A master list of all Fire Team merchandise (with photos) will be posted in the Fire Team sub-forum.

If any of these guidelines are violated, the group will be disbanded.

 

Here is a link to the Fire Team area:  http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/130-fire-team-area/   501st membership is needed to view this area.

 

This is a great program that is strictly just for fun and it also allows fellow TK's get to know each other better.  I would love to help any Garrison/area get a Fire Team started, just let me know what I can do to help.

 

With unquestioned Loyalty,

Fire teams are cool. The Endor Party Crashers (EPiC) Fire Team has become a sensation in Southern California. When the DZs start racking up Tuskens for a troop, we answer the call in great numbers! When Route 66 Sandtroopers troop together, they have an identity - we're working on that with our fire team as well. And when new TKs introduce themselves at the SCG forums, we welcome them in and help them with their builds. It's a great sub-sub-community of Troopers Helping Troopers Be Awesome.

I'm still working with TKs in my area on nailing a name down before we create a team, looking forward to it!

[LadyInWhite[TK]]

Yeah, it takes some time unless you're a group that's already pretty much a group!

Having a logo really helps cement things together. It's a great way to get people out and trooping in their TK's again!

Is the two crossed E-11's considered a FISD marking, or can it be used on a fireteam Logo?

[Daetrin[Admin]]

By themselves?  That should be fine.

 

Is the two crossed E-11's considered a FISD marking, or can it be used on a fireteam Logo?

Good to know

Then you can still tie a fireteam logo to FISD, without using an official FISD logo
