4/16/99 - The Birth of the Sheep
After weeks of conversation, Major
Sperry & Major Stryker decide to form a squad. The Name for the squad was an
easy one since we felt like misfits and we were sure that other people felt the same
way. We also knew that the Black Sheep were a force to be reckoned with especially
when against overwhelming odds. Basic Web Design was brought online and
application to Novalogic was submitted.
5/4/99
Roger Wilco is brought online as the squads source
of communication during game play. Recruiting for the squad continues.
To further our skills with Roger Wilco, games on
NovaWorld are sought out that has Wilco
running. One game that was continuously running for a time was a cooperative mission
hosted Mother. After a week or so of playing with Mother, he became the 3rd Sheep to
enter the flock. As web development continued, Mother took up the task of
being Squad photographer. This caused him to enter the world of web design to create
the In Action section of the site.

New maps start showing up on the
seen on the NovaWorld Public servers. The Sheep are curious and have to check it
out. On one such fact finding mission, they encounter Sting in an Arctic operation.
He was on fire that night, melting everything with his Saw. He
was ask to join the squad but he declined because he was waiting on the OK from another squad.
Needless to say things didn't work for Sting with the other squad (who shall remain
nameless), so he became the 4th Sheep in the flock. Sting's ability to handle a Saw
was not the only asset he brought the squad. His flair of the dramatics
is evident in the Intelligence Report that he to created for us. Yes, it's a good thing Sting!
5/28/99
Similar to Sting and on another of the Sheep's Black OPS mission to check out these New maps on the
NovaWorld Public servers, Stryker and Sperry encounter Mr. Clark.
He too was on fire that night. We quickly found out the he was a
regular weapons specialist. Although he's best with his M4, he is
just as deadly with a Saw and he is known is pulling out his Sniper rifle
and having fun taking out the opposing snipers. Mr. Clark was ask to
join the squad making him the 5th Sheep.
6/6/99
Major Sperry brings his custom maps to Delta Force players by starting up the Sheep's World
game server. The set of 8 custom Team Death Match maps quickly
become a sought out place where players get a new look to the
game. The 5 members that make up the core player of the Sheep
are found playing there almost every night.
6/18/99
After getting some exposure from the custom maps, the Black Sheep's recruitment picks up some
speed. During one of our nightly operations on the Sheep's World
server, the Sheep run into an immovable object. A Saw jockey that is
both deadly in close quarters combat as well as at long ranges.
Wondering how such a thing is possible, the team talks to this player to
see if we can make him part of our team. As luck would have, Saw
Sniper becomes the 6th Sheep and the newest member of the core team.
He educated us on the finer points of sniping with a Saw. This truly
made the Sheep a force to be reckoned with.
