Today is a good day. No more days of flying around in those cramped Heimdalls. Today my request for the command of a Vidar class cruiser has been approved. Finally I am receiving recognition for my years of service to the Hessian cause. With this ship I will forge a new legacy for my descendents.
Fortunately the core of my staff from my pervious command came with me. Chief among them my first officer CDR Gross. In the years Gross has served with me Ive come to rely heavily on his judgment in combat. Weapons Officer LT. CDR Fiedler, Navigator LT. Adler, and Chief Engineer LT. CDR Kessler also were transferred to my satisfaction.
As with all new ships there are problems. The port sensor receptor isnt calibrated correctly, gun mounts three, five, and eleven arent cooling properly, the rear shield emitters flick off for no reason, and the cruise engines take longer than they should to charge. But even with all her problems Ive already fallen in love with my Vidar.
But what shall I name this magnificent cruiser? Something to strike fear into the hearts of my enemies. Something to bring courage to my allies. After giving the matter much thought I decided to name her the Ragnarok for she will bring great destruction to her enemies where ever they may be.
