Congratulations to LCM Tyrian, who has just been appointed as Gamma FL2!

Congratulations to Julon Lommax on becoming a Lieutenant, and also to LT Upsidexumop and LC Kenath Zoron on being appointed as the new Beta Flight Leaders!

For his efforts in the past months, SOO Jarek La'an has just been awarded the Gold Star of the Empire!

Congratulations, Fleet Admiral!

*The PA monitors on the Hammer go black for a second, then the Security Chief's face appears on the screens.*

I would like to notify all pilots serving aboard the ISDII Hammer, that the Mess Hall on Deck C has been closed indefinitely after a shootout between two maintenance engineers.

I'd also like to emphasize the importance of staying calm and reasonable even under influence. The sidearms are there for self-defense against hostile boarding parties and spies, not to settle Sabacc debates. Especially since no one is allowed to consume alcoholic beverages while on duty.

I will update the crew once the investigation has been concluded. No restrictions will be put into effect at this time.

Carry on.

*The screens turn black again, then they resume to show the regular flow of information.*

Formerly known as Victor Tylyon and Destavol, COL Jade has just joined Delta Squadron's Flight 1.

Welcome back, Colonel!

It's my pleasure to announce that Beta CMDR Kyle Kroan has been promoted to the rank of Captain, due to his excellent performance as a Flight Leader in Delta Squadron.

Congratulations, Captain Kyle Kroan!

Beta Squadron just saw the arrival of CM Zeke Freeman, opening Beta Flight 2.

Welcome back, Commander!

The TIE Corps Command is proud to inform that Beta Squadron has been recreated aboard the ISD-II Hammer.

Beta will be led by Commander Kyle Kroan, former Flight Leader in Delta Squadron, and one of our finest officers!

Arriving from M/PLT Daedalus, SL Upsidexumop has been the first to join CM Kroan in Beta, and was followed just a few moments ago by LC Kenath Zoron, returning from M/FRG Phoenix.

We hope the other squadrons will assist Beta in any way they can, especially at these early stages of its development, and CM Kroan can count on the full support of the whole TIE Corps Admiralty Board.

Congratulations, Commander Kroan, and welcome to the fleet, LC Zoron and SL Upside. We hope you will enjoy yourselves in this endeavour.

Long live Beta!

To add to Dempsey's news piece below (although way less fancy because I really don't remember HTML), we've also had the return of:

- LCM Tyrian;
- MAJ Tek Selkirk; and
- CPT Ras Kronar.

Welcome back, gentlemen!

It is with great pleasure that I announce that Colonel Anahorn Dempsey has been awarded the prestigious Grand Order of the Emperor!

Congratulations, Colonel Dempsey!

Yes, you've seen it right. Your email inboxes have been flooded with announcements of people getting tired living under the rule of some weird Hobbit. They have returned to active duty, and they are most welcome.

Welcome back to:

LCM Jaorrus Morraus

LCM Godo Nurok

LC Kodiak Kereban

CPT Nutrientman

MAJ Giovanni Palermo

COL BubbaX

The number of generals has just tripled!

Who will follow?
