Welcome to the 13th edition of the Aleth Squadron report. Not much happened this week, and I couldn't think of anything clever and whitty for the intro, so, on to the report. Hopefully you will all get this in a reasonable amount of time.
Role-Playing Story Update
I bet you're all tired of hearing about how the RPG is going to happen. Well, I'm happy to tell you that I've finally decided on an idea of how to fix some of the problems I've been running into. Here it is. I'm going to write a short "scene" for the whole squadron, then we will use the Aleth e-mail group to e-mail your ideas about what you guys want your characters to do, and then you can react to ideas from other pilots. I will then step in from time to time and write what happens because of your actions. I expect to send out the first scene when I get back from my cabin after this weekend. Hopefully this will turn out to be cool.
Aleth Competition Update
Don't worry, scoring is in progress and will be announced tomorrow. So will the next mission for the final round of the AC.
Orders
Fly missions and battles and stuff.
Get ready for the great activity that is going to take place in a few days time from the next round of the AC and the ARPG (Aleth RPG).
Recruit! If we get 12 pilots in Aleth, I'll promote all you guys one grade. Right after I train LC Marden to moo like a cow. (This means never). But recruit anyways!
Squadron News
LT Dufar Jabar has completed a large amount of missions, everyone should be that active!
MAJ Kalar created a new Aleth mailgroup.
LT Sunrider has a new e-mail address, danielmc4@msn.com. Use this one, not the old one. This new e-mail is added to the Aleth group.

Lot's of e-mail activity on the new group. Not that it was all the productive, but you can't have everything :)

Weird Star Wars Fact
I recently saw on a website that Dennis Lawson, the original Wedge Antilles, has a nephew who is also in a Star Wars movie. Ewan McGregor, Obi-Wan Kenobi in Episode 1 is the nephew of Dennis Lawson. I guess that's sort of interesting and/or cool.
