Army of Me / AOME

“Captain’s Log 2945: I think it is about time that I document the point’s in my life that led to this motley group being started….,”

“I’m mainly a Solo pilot, most know this…but understand the verse can be a harsh place with many groups that are looking to take from you what is yours. It is said that if you do not ORG up, you are only fighting a loosing battle in the end.”

“SO, this group began because of my relationship with a Banu freighter pilot, my best friend (placeholder).”

“While on rout to a business meeting I detected a fire fight a couple thousand kilometers to port. My curiosity got the best of me”

“It turned out that 2 Pirates were making a run on a Banu freighter..annnnd he was not going to last with one damaged burner on that old junk-heap, it was a Caterpillar…I came to realize later of how much he made for himself with that junk-heap, so understand that I say that with affection for the ship itself.”

“Focused on their prey it was easy for me to ambush the pirates coming from the darkside of an asteroid, I hit the thrust and took in my ship…The Origami Fox.”

“I hit them with some unrelenting fire from the fox’s cannons, and blasted them both with missiles. Disabling the engines completely of the Avenger and making the other crew from the Cutlass have to abandon ship.”

“With rescue from peril, a casual friendship began to form. From time to time we crossed paths and shared information, or offered assistance in a delivery…for a bit of the profit of-course, you have to pay for your expenses some how and save that little nest egg.” chuckle “We have also both rescued each other in Piracy situations many times, so our friendship extends beyond this first encounter.”

“After many meetings we understood that we had too-many personal business obligations or differentiating paths of interests to form a lasting business relationship, but we greatly enjoyed each-others company and stories of adventure.” “So we formed a group and welcomed others of like mind, all with the personal desire to help each other when needed, or when the ability to help was available to give.”…“I mean you never know when you will be in another star system and can’t be there to help.”

“Now, some that found their path was better together so they formed crews and became fast friends. While others passed in and out like ships in the black.” “It was the collective desire though to help when help was needed but the understanding that not all paths are parallel. So we created a communications web where we could all coordinate with each other and assign the closest to help or join in on a job that will take more than one ship, or when when one of us was being run down by Pirates.”

“This caused the naming of this Organization of misfits and business persons as the Army of Me”..“Where one can be many if needed.”
