The Dark Brotherhood of the Jedi is currently undergoing a massive command upgrade in an effort to make it more "active". The Changes are as follows: 

-Lambda Commander Sths Tor is hereby appointed to the rank of Dark Side Adept and is placed in the fourth and final Dark Council slot. He will act as mission coordinator. 

-Dark Side Adept Ronin is promoted to the rank of Master. He will coordinate the DB with the Emperor's Hammer, including joint operations.  

-Master Paladin is appointed acting head of the DB during the absence of Grand Master Kane Vader. Following the Grand Master's return, he will act as titular head of the Brotherhood, handling day to day operations. 

-All members who were previously apprentices are promoted to the rank of novice. More promotions are expected later, but first time as a member must be considered. All members are asked to contact acting Grand Master Paladin concerning their approximate date of entry. Promotions have also been handed out based on activity. Any member who feels that he has been overlooked may send a petition to Master Paladin @ Mstr Jdi.  

- Members are asked to begin posting in the DB folder, to submit NL entries for inclusion in this section, and other things which may improve the brotherhood. 

-The rank structure has been altered to make more "sense". Also the point structure has been abandoned in favor of a system based on time-in-grade. The new rank structure is as follows

Members are responsible for keeping track of their own time-in-grade. Members are asked to submit an estimate of time-in-grade. If unsure, a "guesstimate" will be made by the Grand Master and a rank arbitrarily assigned. The highest rank a member can currenlty hold is Dark Jedi Knight. Promotions will also be given for outstanding service. The orders of the Sith and Krath will remain unchanged, except that the minimum ranks are Guardian and Protector respecively. Applications can be fowarded to the Grand Master.

Your suspicions concerning the Rebels were correct. While pretending to be the saviors of the galaxy with nothing but peaceful intent, the hypocrites are even now developing a new super weapon. The Rebel scum seem have high hopes for this weapon.

Unfortunately, only the name of the project is known.....Archangel. What this may signify is unknown, especially given the Rebels' penchant for giving weapon systems more mundane names.

This project seems to be of the highest priority for the rabble. Their High Command seems to be taking a personal interest in Archangel. The High Command frequently shuttles between this station and some unknown facility for meetings and inspections. The next meeting is to take place in 3 weeks. The Millennium Falcon is scheduled to make the run. This indicates that at least the smuggler Han Solo and the Wookie will at least be on board. I am transmiting their initial jump coordinates. The possibility exists to track the Falcon to it's secret base. I recommend that we activate our surprise package.
