On this day, on the 69th year of the Nu calendar, the Imperial Senate of the Echo Cluster, and the honorably retiring Emperor Joesnoffy recognize Darth Balls as the Almighty Commander of the 11 races, 5th in the line of unified leaders, hereafter to be known as the Emperor of the Echo Cluster!
All Hail Emperor Darth Balls!
The Gemini War unfolded like a grudge match. Commander after commander made deals, neighbors gaining and losing territory while Darth Balls staunchly plowed his way to victory. This championship however, may be most remembered for it's infamous ion storm. A behemoth that caused plans to go awry and exposed the underbelly of more than a few fleets.
Year 0069 will officially be known as the 1st Year of the Reign of Darth Balls.
To honor the occasion, The Imperial Senate has once again asked the Emperor to commission a new Ship Hull Design to use as his command ship. Once designed by Emperor Darth Balls the new Cyborg ship will be named by the Senate and become available to be researched for Campaign battles by all future Cyborg commanders.
