Wichita invaded by the 70th Explorers

Post by TK-1161 Curt »

Members of the 70th Explorers Garrison and our sister organization the Madalorian Mercs, took the stage of the Sedgwick Co. Extension Center in Wichita, KS Aug 7th thru 9th as Guests of Chronicles: The Convergence, Wichita's 3 Day Sci-Fi, Anime and Gaming convention. We were among the distinguished guests of
Tiffany Grant : The English voice of Asuka from Evangelion, among 1000 other voice creditsincluding Unlimited Saga and Deus Ex II: Invisible War.
Eric Wile: Was a Game Master for Sony Online Entertainments EverQuest, and did game testing for Star Wars Galaxies
Authors Robert Collins of Lisa's way and Expert Assistance and T.M. Hunter of Hero's Die Young and Little White Truths.
Casey, current developer of adventure material for Castles and Crusaders RPG and the Black Libram of Nartarus.

On Saturday, 5 Stormtroopers, 2 Biker Scouts a TIE Fighter Pilot escourted Darth Vader on Inspection of the Convention joined by 3 Mandalorian Mercs and our wonderful handlers.
The 70th Explorers and Mando Mercs broke for lunch around 12:30, were we marched from the Convention across the street to Invade Braums, were the staff took our orders and Pictures.
One of the convention sponsors, WTI (Wichita Technical Institute) put our troopers shooting skills to the test with computers games in full armor, overseen by Lord Vader himself. I am happy to report that all of our troopers passed the test with honors!

We also made several arrests and interrogations of suspected members of the Rebellion ( Chronicles Staff Members) were they were photographed for future Imperial investigation, prior to being presented with 501st Legion and 70th Explorers Garrison Patches. We managed to do this with "no disentigrations". Our most wanted and elusive suspect was Russell Nybarger, owner of Chronicles Conventions LLC. Lord Vader placed a very high Bounty on his head, and dispatched 3 Mandaloriam Mercs to bring him to the stage, were our detachment of Troopers, promptly took him into custody, in front of all the convention attendees and Vendors. After Imperial processing we presented Russell with his 501st Legion and 70th Explorers Patches.

70th Explorers Garrison Members that were in attendance were Robert Brill, Faron Morales, Tim Bremer, Steven Blowers, Bill Holmes, Johnston Lutton and Kerry "Darman" Ellison and future members Justin Lutton and Austin L.

On Sunday Aug 9th, Russell Nybarger owner of Chronicles, auctioned of several items and graciously donated ALL the proceeds to the 70th Explorers for our Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Walk for the Cure we will be attending Sept 26th, 2009, totaling $118.59

The 70th Explorers have been invited to return next year for Chronicles : The Risen, on July 30th thru Aug 1st 2010.

Come out and Join Us.....................The Emperor is Expecting You!
