This is a repost, but for good reason. The infamous PressCorps is starting up again, this time taking a broader approach and including a few others. Join his discord here to see how you can participate.

Well it is! Kinda... We're getting there.

This kind of belongs in Propaganda, but given that it's original art as well... Here's some PCL banners!

I need to introduce you to our mutual friends, the [WN] Warden Navy. They might have something to say about this.
By: Hardnailz
The Warden army, better than a sack of potatoes... but not by much.

Requisition forms. Necessary. The next time you need medical attention in the field, you better have the proper paperwork filed or it'll be a cold day on the floor for you.

That's a nice lookin' tank you got there. But you should think about drawing a train.
By: Iriduim
It must be nice having a resident artist to make all your profile pictures for you. Join FTL and get your portrait painted today! Compliments of Iriduim. Just message him. Go ahead. Don't wait to find out if everyone in FTL gets one, or just his closest friends. I'm sure he'll do it for you. Just DM him.

This is cool. Now I want to see a complete equipment loadout for each class, with percentages of encumbrance.

I wanna stand in the back of that truck while its driving down a road in a high-speed chase shooting out the back at some coppers all while listening to the theme song to Dukes of Hazard.

"Everything". Lol. As a casual logi driver, I hate you so much.

That awkward moment when you realize this might be the first submission of Foxhole stickmen, ever...

This is, I think, the wax sculpt for the mold that will eventually be cast into a tin mini. Really great work. Interested to see how it turns out. I'll be shocked if you manage to get the detailing to come through.

Not sure what that smoke is supposed to be coming out between his legs, but I'll assume its a plume of super-hot Warden tank exhaust.
By: Adam
Yes, that Adam. Not exactly "Community" material, but we'll let it pass because I want this.
Funny Stuff

Thanks Hardnailz for putting together these memes. I'm going to slap one of these up on announcements later in the week.

Nice Paintover! I almost put this in the art section but nope. No cigar. You get relegated to the funny section.

This was an excellently timed piece, given the devstream that we just used to reveal the rocket. Now you really can go to space!
By: Padfoot
This was... well... there was a discussion where this came up. I don't remember it... but I'm glad it happened.
By: Insanity
I... cannot, for the life of me, remember what movie this quote is from. Darnit. Someone's going to remind me on discord the moment they read this and im going to feel really stupid.

Another rocket! It's like he knew!

Hey. They're useful alright?! You just... gotta know when to use them.

War Stories

Marenova made a mockup wiki article of the battle of Saltygrad... It's too small to read here. So click here to go to the actual post.

I like the attention to the lore too. This isn't just a retelling, its a godamn masterpiece. Nice job.

Endless Shore
Organized by the 101st + SOM
Yesterday a large invasion force was sent against the wardens from Umbral Wildwood at an attempt to remove the warden menace from Endless Shore. Armed with about 7 tanks, 2 halftracks, 3 gunboats, and other such support craft members of the 101st, SOM, 27thFRC, 22 ACR, and other random clans and colonial soldiers mounted up for a daring attack. Upon landing on the shore these men pushed up and took the nearby fort. Then through a bloody and unforgiving battle fought the wardens for every inch until reaching the town of Vulpine.
May these men be remembered for their bravery

I had to add this for this game of thrones-themed video attached to it. So good.

Damnit. That visual tree bug was really bugging me. Otherwise an excellent video of the glorious Warden tank legions rolling into Colonial-occupied Heartlands.
By: I Saw A Bear
Damn that's a really tough landing zone. A lot of ways that could have gone bad. Nice arty calls though.
By: Seed
I am annoyed by the severe lack of AT this halftrack column had with it. Annoyed and angry.

Some people collect coins. Other people collect Magic Cards. This guy collects musical medleys in an online war game.

Well?! Are they ready to push?! Why does this video not answer this question!
By: Razzoorr
Come listen in to this podcast, covering all the most recent announcements and adding to it a little warden flavour.
By: MT Gaming
Pretty decent editing. Good choice of music. Terrible choice of faction. Otherwise great!
By: Marenova
Wasn't this the decoy outpost? I believe this was a joke left behind by FFL. They'd filled those boxes with crates of hammers and pistols... unless I'm thinking of another time.
By: Mulon
I LOVE these. And a nice choice of music too. I loved seeing that slow-creep into Macha's. That was fantastic. And when Huskhollow fell, and then you immediately see those defences pop up on the bridge. So good.
By: Smokeage
LOL yes... yes this landing went horribly wrong. No cargoship with landing = bad news bears.
That wraps up another Community Highlight Post. Remember all the things I told you at the start of this thing. There's a lot to keep in your head over the next week. Go back and read them again. I know you've already forgotten. Don't try to hide it.
Sincerely,
KrazyFlyinChicken
