Hi everybody

My name is Nickoma Edwards, I am so excited to join the 501st. All my life i have wanted to be a stormtrooper, now i have my armor thanks to my good friend Phoenix (Luke) now i just have to build it Doppeldaumen1

.
It was Moxxxie, Cobra and Goose who convinced me into joining the 501st at the May Auscon. (Didn't take much to convince me)

I have a 3 year old daughter who was born with CMV (Cytomegalovirus) she has symptoms of cerebral palsy and is delayed with her muscle movement, so the thought of making sick children smile and raising money to help them get better means the world to me.

I look forward to meeting everyone and happy new year.

My Apprentice has arrived.

Welcome to the Best Garrison in the entire Known Galaxy!

As part of our 2012 Resolutions, it's time to get Nick into his armour. He has my original MM suit from before I obtained the FX suit from TheWolf. I'm hoping I can pass on the knowledge I have learned from Goose and Muppet and only have to 'annoy' these experts occasionally - and perhaps we can get to an Armour Party.

Here s a photo of you at AUSCON (May) helping Mox and Cobra test the photobooth. Mark/Goose conveniently arranged for my business' booth to be right next the the 501st Photobooth. At some point your daughter needs to be put into her Episode IV Princess Leia outfit and have the Photobooth capture here being captured by Stormtroopers.

It just gets so much better from here on!

Welcome to the redbacks Solo, I'm sure Phoenix will be a good master to learn from. But as he would have told you it is good to get along to an armour party to get to meet others, and you are more than welcome to come along to a troop and help wrangle the crowd.

Welcome aboard Nick. You just so happened to stummble across the best damned Garrison the 501st has seen.

Now you make sure to get that Stormtrooper up and running if thats what you've always wanted. They are gonna be some evil Sandtroopers in here that may try and sway you to go play in the dirt, but seriosuly who wants sand in thier undies. Shiny all the way!

There are a heap of helpful people in this Garrsion so dont be affaid to ask for help. And If you get yourself along to an Armour Party (AP) when they come up you'll get alot out of it, as its a great place to start if you find yourself stuck with making that next step in the armor process.

Good luck with your build and I look forward to trooping with you in the future. Sing out if you need advice mate, and Happy New Year!
