After playing the SWOS for quite awhile, as it dwindled down I was given my first taste of command in the ASWS as a Vice-Admiral. We had a good long run, but it ended up dissovling like most sims. I can say I've gamemastered quite abit though in a Chat-room based enviroment; most of my simming was in chatrooms. I briefly ran a very ambious SIM myself some years ago, but induced its downfall by merging it with another organization. Personally, I believe myself to be the last remnant of the second generation of grand Imperials. I played with those I consider the greatest minds the Empire has seen since Zahn penned his works about Thrawn. Michael Ng, Rob Wettengel, Cronrus Groundwalker. I'm an experienced Gamemaster, and I know how these things are run. Most importantly, I know why these so often fail. My webpage coding skills are slim to nil, and I couldn't run the thing by myself. Logistics and Macro-management, I enjoy. But I cannot devote myself to being a full-time supreme manager. I would be assuredly interested in finally seeing a true reemergence of the classic star wars sim. -Matt Tarkin Fleet Admiral (Ret.)
