A good video always helps - We need your help.

Hey soldiers, General J.R here.

You might have notice but the rate of recruits coming into our militia has dropped and so we have decided to try different forms of media to promote ourselves. Right now we are looking videos to help promote us and so we have TWO things we would like to employ your help with.

ONE - We are considering doing video entries to help spread the word about GLF and so we are looking for video editors as well as artists. We are looking to do something similar to Extra Credits but our team is really limited and so we are seeking help from the community. If you've got good skills at editing videos or your a decent/excellent artist then please send us an e-mail or give us a shout on twitter.

E-mail - gallia_liberation_front@hotmail.com
Twitter - @GLFront
           - http://twitter.com/#!/GLFront

Just a note for people applying for artists. Take a look at Extra Creditz. We are not looking for anything fancy but something that is simplistic yet stand out. If anything we could utilize different artists with different styles for a more unique approach. Please send us a sample of your drawing style along with your e-mail to sign up an artist. manga artists are also welcomed (we want/like chibi artists).

TWO - We would like the ask the community to help make videos to promote GLF. Right now are team is limited and so we cannot make any videos for our group however we have seen people making videos to help promote our group and so we would like to capitalize on this idea and ask others to do the same. If you have the time and not shabby at video editing then want ask you to help us.

Please include our the offical GLF symbol in your video (this can be found on our Facebook group photos).

I hope you guys can help us out as we're so very close to the 1000 mark but we need that little bit extra support. We eagerly await your applications.

Altaha Abilia.

Mission 03 - "Operation Warden's Aegis" (Phase 2)

Eximius Here.

The admins have agreed to initiate the second phase of "Warden's Aegis". Now it is time to mail in your signed pamphlet. The admins have decided for SEGA of America to recieve our letters on:

September 19th, 2011

We want our signed pamphlets to pour in on a single solitary day so it leaves an impression on the company. Depending on where you live, you will have to mail your letters on a specific day. I have created a "Mailing Delivery Estimates" chart to help you calculate an approximation of when you should send in your letters.

Mailing Delivery Estimates Chart:

Please print it out, sign it, and enclose it in an envelope, and have it addressed to:

SEGA of America
350 Rhode Island Street, Suite 400
San Francisco, CA 94103

ALL OF YOU MUST PARTICIPATE IN THIS
This is quite possibly one of the most important missions thus far and without everyone's support
SEGA will NOT get the message.

You want this game DON'T YOU!?!
Then please take 7 minutes out of your day and mail it in.
Be sure to look at the Mailing Delivery Estimates Chart to calculate when you should mail it in.

SEGA IS OUR TARGET COMPANY!!
WE HAVE TO LET THEM KNOW ABOUT US!!
GALLIAN LIBERATION FRONT!!
MOVE OUT!!

Mission 03 - "Operation Warden's Aegis" (Phase 1)

Hey soldiers, Stephan here. How goes the good fight? Hope you are doing your part by spreading the word and completing missions 1 and 2 (although they are never really completed because you have to keep grinding them for more experience).

~BEFORE WE GET ON TOPIC OF THE MISSION~

You guys need to step it up a notch. The leaders have been posting links to the discussion pages frequently, and I have not seen anybody take the time to post on the SEGA discussion forum, or even the SEGA facebook discussion. 

Please take the time to do so.


VC Section on SEGA forum : SHOW SOME SUPPORT BY STARTING TOPICS. THE SECTION IS BASICALLY DEAD. http://forums.sega.com/forumdisplay.php?111-Valkyria-Chronicles&s=2ab53766b52bc8b47ee39f7cd95dc951

SEGA Facebook discussion : http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=28248536795&topic=20399#topic_top

Anyway, on topic, here is your next assignment.  

Operation Warden's Aegis

to do list:
print out the mail in
sign your name
--- DO NOT MAIL IT YET ---
(We will let you know at a later time when to mail it).



We plan on launching a preemptive strike against SEGA, letting them know we are coming. 

THIS MISSION IS PERHAPS THE MOST IMPORTANT ONE YOU MUST PARTAKE IN. 

EVERYONE MUST PARTICIPATE. THAT IS AN ORDER.

I can't stress it enough. This could have a great impact on the battle in our favor, but if no one goes along with the mission, it will be all for naught.

Anyway, In order to do so, please print out the image from above, and sign your name on the line next to the "x" at the bottom. Make sure when you print it that it fills the entire page. It should do so already, but every computer and printer is different.

After you've done so, fold it up, jam it in an envelope, and await further instructions. Phase 2 of this mission will begin when we know enough people have printed it out and signed it.

That's all for now soldiers.

Mission 02 - "Operation Crimson Dawn" (Phase 1)

Hey guys Eximius here to give your next mission.

Now before I give details on the next mission, remember that most of these missions are ongoing efforts. Just because Mission 02 started doesn't mean you should stop on Mission 01. If you can e-mail online article writers and convince them to write an article about our movement, that is always welcome.

Mission Debrief
"Crimson Dawn" will involve being personal and going face to face promoting our campaign. I will list specific conventions in local areas throughout the World that will begin throughout September. Your mission is to see if you can go to these conventions and hand out our fliers promoting us (If you can make the commute or live near these conventions). Keep in mind that it doesn't have to be a large quantity of fliers, but if you can get the attention of 2 - 8 individuals it can have a multiplier effect and recipient of the flier can spread our word too.

Mission 01 - "Operation Hawkeye"

ATTENTION SOLDIERS!!!

It has been 1 week since the launch of our new base of operations for the Gallian Liberation Front and over that time we have had more than 500 recruits join our base in preparation for the fight to take what is ours. However we are still in need of more loyal recruits and so in order to heat things up and give things a bit of a push, we have decided to start a pre-emptive campaign to help encourage recruits to join our page and we need YOUR help.

Mission Details
Your target will be two game sites/video blogs - IGN and Extra Credits
You are to e-mail and contact each site expressing your interest and support for these sites to write an article/interview or mention of the Gallian Liberation Front to help promote us.
Our aim is to get enough support from the general community to help convince these sites that we are worthy cause to write about and hopefully with hundreds of people flooding their e-mails or twittering them with requests, this may happen: Support is better in numbers.
Hitting these big sites and convincing them to write and article about the GLF can ultimately convince thousands of potential recruits to join our cause.

Targets

Extra Credits
E-mail - extracreditz@gmail.com
Twitter - @ExtraCreditz

IGN 
(Australian)
E-mail -  http://au.games.ign.com/email.html (click on the link to contact them)
Twitter - @IGN


(North American)
E-mail http://games.ign.com/email.html (click on the link to contact them)
Twitter - @IGN

Tips


Here are some simple guidelines on what to write
  1. Intro yourself and tell them how much you love their site 
  2. Ask them if they be willing to write an article on the Gallian Liberation Front 
  3. Tell them who we are and the growing support we have been getting
  4. state we're requesting people to help promote us
  5. link them a few of the articles written on us (Destructoid, Japanator, Blistered Thumbs)
  6. conclude (you should consider writing an article on GLF)
  7. Link the main page and twitter
  8. Altaha Abilia (Always Ready) and your name
Your free to write however you want but just remember that these are some key points to hit when e-mailing them. You can also contact them on twitter but just don't over flood their twitter pages (we don't want them to hate us). Remember soldiers that we want as many people as we can get to contact these site so we can get support from the general community. If these sites can write and article about GLF or in extra credits case mention us in their video then this will hit thousands of potential recruits.

You have your orders.

Hey Eximius Here. It's Update Time!!

Hope "Operation Hawkeye" is easy for you to carry out and I hope it's going well.

With that in mind the whole idea of Hawkeye is for us to get more publicity and further increase our support.
And another way you can help is to hand out some of our Fliers if you are going to any of your local convention. I will post specific dates to the blog of any of your local conventions for specific days to help spread our word.

Also you can use "Forum Signatures" to the right of this page for websites that allow you to use images at the end of your posts. Speaking of which I have uploaded more Forum Signatures (16 more) for some extra variety and incentive for you to help us gather new recruits.

Thank You again for all your support. Keep up the fight!!

If you would like to request a specific character from the Valkyria Chronicles 3 game please comment on this thread.
