Cold
Revenge Quadrant
nuqneH
The Cold Revenge Quadrant has been busy, as we always are. The Quad has
grown, adding 2 new ships to the fold. We’ve gotten together
to bash each other with bat’letHs, shoot at each other, and
drink lots of bloodwine. We’ve gone to cons, guarded
Chancellors, and some have attempted to abduct Orion Slave girls.
The 2 new ships we’ve added to the Quad are the IKV Qin Vagh
(DFW) and the IKV K’Vette out of Baton Rouge, LA.
Lt. Kahlith, from the IKV Krazy Knife has done a super job on the
Fleet’s website, check it out at http://empyre.immortalcovenant.com/CTF2.html
Also on a personal note, my family has grown with the addition of my
son, Kahless Shane-Lee Carnahan born on Nov. 8, 2007.
Now, for some ship reports:
From Cmdr. Ri’Par, CO of the IKV Bayou Serpent…
Greetings from the IKV Bayou Serpent! We have been
busy as always. Since our last Mindscanner report we
served as Honor Guard for Robert O'Reilly (Chancellor
Gowron) at Babelcon with Ni'vek being promoted to 1st
Lieutenant and B’ehrmaq promoted to 2nd Lieutenant for
completing his uniform in record time.
Ni'vek and myself also made the 300 mile trip to the
Dallas area for the IKV Melota's 2007 fall bat'leth
tournament, or was it on Ferenginar?. The weather left
much to be desired since it rained everything from a
drizzle to all out downpours but we fought anyway with
myself (Ri'Par) coming in 2nd in d'k’tahg and second
overall in points from the 3 weapon classes. Ni'vek was
unable to do battle due to a recent back surgery but
got into uniform anyway for the ceremony.
Early February 2008 I made the 300 mile trip to Dallas
again to get help building armor for the ship's
camcorder to use to film paintball events. The IKV
Melota crew was very gracious, pretty much building the
armor for me, feeding me, and giving me a place to
stay.
On March 28-30 the IKV Bayou Serpent hosted its 5th annual Venom
Wars. A total of 5 Klingon ships from the CRQ were theref: Bayou
Serpent, Melota, Deliverance, and our 2 new ships the Qin Vagh
&
K'Vette. Plus many mundanes, including our new friends The
Ghostwalkers.
This was the biggest turnout for a VW as well, with over 30 people
showing up and playing at one time or the other. First game was a
version of capture the flag. A BUNCH of paint got sprayed at everybody.
Klingon speedball was next. Its one on one w/ limited ammo. Lt.Cmdr.
K'Allen was the winner of that event. Next there were a couple games
played by others while ceremonies and food were being prepaired by the
hosts.
Winners:
Worst Bruise---Rotokq
Speedball---K'Allen
Dah' Har---Mike Beyer
Least Bruised---Bear(Ghostwalker)
July 19-20, in Baton Rouge, LA members of the IKV Bayou Serpent and
K'Vette will attend BabelCon. Celebrities in attendance will be Suzie
Plackson & J.G. Hertzler (K'Ehleyer & Martok) along
with Bob May(robot
from Lost in Space).

Salek just radically blew the

Our annual fundraiser giftwrapping for Border's Bookstore was a success
as we raised $900 for the Safe Haven of Tarrant County.
We are planning our third annual Klingon Ball for the Summer as well as
our 2008 Tournament. Still to early for solid dates. The Spring
INformal Campout is tentatively set for the first weekend of May.
The last weekend of March has 3 different events. Good Day to Dine (an
LSWA event), a Federation Ship's event, and the IKV Bayou Serpent's
Venom Wars are all on the same weekend. We shall be spread very thin on
the ground. However, we are Grethor bent on sending somebody to Venom
Wars.
