[hider=Orders]
- Posting IC will be immensely beneficial to you as a player. It is, however, not necessary. This is designed so that you can still send in your orders if you are too busy to post, but posting IC will provide a tangible bonus to your DRM (Die Roll Modifier).
- Each [b]Turn[/b] represents one In-Game Month. The player will submit [b]3 Orders[/b].
- Each order is then subject to a 1d6 roll. A 6 means a perfect execution and a 1 means a horrible failure. Posting IC gives you a +2 die roll to a single order, or a +1 die roll to all three. [Specified at the end of your IC post.]. This means that more active players are rewarded.

Operating as an entirely stated owned industry, [i]Imperial Armouries[/i] of the [b][color=purple]Tyrian Empire[/color][/b] finishes it's prototype [i]Austerf MG 05/1[/i]. An almost exact replica of the [i]Syndére[/i] from the neighboring Helrox Empire, the MG 05 was specifically designed to be a lightweight and more portable version. A lightened and thus more portable version — produced by "stepping-down" the upper rear and lower forward corners of the original MG 05's rectangular-outline receiver and breech assembly, and reducing the cooling jacket's diameter to 92.5 millimeters — was tested as a prototype in January by a team of weapon designers under the direction of [i]Austerf der Wachat[/i], the Imperial Design Bureau—the MG 05/1.

The MG 05/1 had been designed to be manned by three trained infantrymen spread on the ground around the gun and in the prone position. To accomplish that purpose, the MG 05/1 featured a short bipod rather than a heavy four-legged sled mount, plus a wooden gunstock and a pistol grip. At 18 kg, the MG 05/1 was lighter and less cumbersome than the standard MG 05, since the MG 05/1 had been designed to provide increased mobility of infantry automatic fire. It nevertheless remained a bulky water-cooled weapon that was quite demanding on the quality and training of its crews.
