Competition dates: 2014-09-01 - 2014-09-14
Subgroup: TIE Corps
Units involved: Theta, Sin
Description: == PART 1: FLY THE MISSION ==

Theta and Sin pilots will fly TIE-free 165: Battle of Baraton. Highest laserless score earns an IS-SW, second highest laserless score earns an IS-BW. Turn in your pilot file to your CMDR, and the two CMDRs will compare scores at the end of the competition.

== PART 2: REPORT FOR DEBRIEFING ==

In at least 500 words, write a short story about what you did before the mission, what you did during the mission, or what happened after the mission. Submissions will be judged by our COM, HA Frodo March, and given a 1-10 score, whole numbers only, based on originality and his own personal enjoyment of the work.

Flying TIE-free 165 is not required in order to participate in the short story portion of the competition, but any pilot who flies the mission and submits a story will have 1 point added to his story's score.

From the mission's readme file, this is the summary the mission's plotline:

"A pirate group known as the Hullan have recently begun preying on Imperial interests in the Baraton system. They have also publicly announced their intention of driving us out for the public good. You will patrol the area around the system base - an Imperial Intelligence platform - and destroy any attackers."

The story with the highest score will earn its writer an IS-SR, with the second highest score winning an IS-BR. In the event of a tie for first and second, Frothy will have to pick one work to receive an additional half a point to break the tie.
Competition awards:

IS-SW and IS-BW for the flying portion, IS-SR and IS-BR for the writing portion
