~Squadron News~
Tornado: Tour of Supremacy - The Return!Next Target - Colossus Squadron League (Finals!!!)
Start Date - NOW!!!!
*Cries in happiness* Im so happy!!!!! We made it to the finals, but this is no excuse to be slack!!!! Your all going to fly your asses off and we are going to win this whole comp or my name isnt Master!
And since theres a wager with Inferno going we cant lose! If you dont know the wager it is as follows: The Squadron that gets the furthest in the CSL gets to rename the other squadrons Callsigns and Ship names for One Month. So in your free time think up some goofy ship names and callsigns for Inferno.
Ill inform you when the finals begin, also good luck to Tempest who have a change if they win the next round.
Lets show the entire EH that Tornado is once again a squad to fear, and that even though we are not an offical Elite Squadron, we can still give it just as good. CSL Website is here: http://www.isdcolossus.com/wc/csl/CSL2/
All match infomation, pilot stats and such is availble there.

(The News is not counted as a change so dont say thats one)
Winner gets an IS-BR.

As said in a weekly e-mail, theres another flying comp going so i can keep u all active. All you have to do is fly the orginal Tie Fighter battles and get a good score.

~From the Desk of Mairin~
XWA Allstars: Fly Free-XWA 61 before Sunday next week for the chance to win an IS-SW, an IS-BW, a kiss from the Wing Commander AND a chance to get into the XWA Allstars squad. Only four entries so far, so chances of winning are "high". :P
TopGun: Cheeeeeeeeeesy title, but the goal of this one is to fly as many missions by the end of the month as possible. Highest number of missions flown wins, and in the event of a tie, whoever flew the most without invulnerable and unlimited ammo will get the win. The winner will get an IS-SW, a nice activity reward at the end of the month, AND a bottle of Chal-pagne. Runners up will receive an IS-BW, a nice activity reward, and a consolation kiss from the Wing Commander. :P If you want all those fabbo prizes, it's time to bust out those joysticks and get your arses in your TIEs!
Challenge Ace: Fly Free-TIE #78 for the highest score you can by 31st August. Top scorer wins an IS-SW and second highest scorer wins an IS-BW
Challenge League 2: Coming soon to a Wing near you...
