SALUTE

CM Kenath Zoron reporting in for Mantis Squadron on February 5, 2002

Squadron Status:

Well, as you may have figured out from that bit of bold font at the top of the page, I have been promoted and now am in command of Mantis Squadron. Erryc was transferred to the reserves after a discussion with Hizad that went like this:

I am very sad to see Erryc go and I will try to fill his shoes as best I can. I liked Erryc's policys and I see no reason to change them, so you will not be experiencing any malconvieniance. And as soon as ehonline is back up, I will try to get Miackus to get the Mantis webpage going again. If that doesn't happen, you can try to make a webpage for your flights or the squadron and I will have it listed on the roster.
-LT Shmeepe has been AWOLed and LT Astartes also asked to be transferred to the reserves until he can get his computer and business set up and then he plans to return.

Squadron News:
-The February FCHG competition has started and at the moment, LT Jensen and LCM Remlinger are tied for first both with 10 NEW FCHG points. Current points:
0)CM Zoron - 52 (<---for comparison)
1)LT Drake Jensen - 10
1)LCM Drax Remlinger - 10
3)LT Serge Broskopf - 4
4)COL Miackus - 0
4)SL Rheinhardt - 0
Don't forget, you should at least aim for 1/2 of my FCHG points ;)

Wing/Ship News:
-Our wonderful WC, COL Hizad, has set up a huge competition which involves all members of Wing XV:
Parties Involved
Wing XV, ISD Vanguard, all 6 squadrons
Missions/Battles Used
1 each of mission compendium battle types
Miscellaneous Details
1 point will be awrded for each 1 battle or free mission flown, of one particular mission compendium type, no more then 1 point for each type(with a few exceptions, see below), plus 1 point for a MP participation (email me to let me know what MP comp you participated in, 1 point for a MP win, one point for a mission creation,one point for completing an IWATS course, and one point for a fiction composisiton(1 page or more). All fiction submissions should be made to me, all battle files should be BSF'd as normal.
The pilot with the most points at the end of the comp will recieve a IS-SW, with the runner up getting a IS-BW, and the fiction writer judged best will recieve a IS-BR.
Additional Rules: Due to the fact that not all pilots own all games associated with the mission compendium, a pilot can replace 2 different battle types with something else. (I.e. flying a second XWA-FREE if they can't fly a TIE-FREE)(The replacement misison has to be semi-equivalent, i.e. no replacing a TIE-FCHG with a XWA-FREE, a XWA-FCHG woulod be better ;) )THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT: For the replacement, make sure to let you commander/BSF submitting person know, and then that person should add that the file is a replacement in the BSF comments section.

I'm still waiting for the FO to approve the roster changes to make each flight a 2 man flight, but I cannot tell you who will be where yet according to some funky rules and stuff. Also note that I have removed the Flight Webpages, if you can make one for your flight, that'd be great.
