“Gentlemen, LCM Alec Qarni has proven himself in our trial of XWA FCHG 2, and so will be awarded the Iron Star. I am saddened to say that only half the squadron participated but that is more then the first. Also this is a very important month. There is ASF MP competition, VAN Top Dog competition, and our Invitational SC style competition so I hope you all get the chance to go out and fly this month. I would really like to show everyone that Scorpion is a viable squadron, with good pilots, so go out and do Scorpion Proud. That's all I really have to say.”

Episode II trailer this week!

Taking from the starwars.com Homing Beacon:
Pixar Animation Studios and Walt Disney Studios today announced that Lucasfilm Ltd. has created an exclusive teaser trailer for Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones that will only appear at the head of the new animated Disney / Pixar film Monsters, Inc. The film premieres on November 2nd in theaters across the United States and Canada.
George Lucas commented, "I have great respect for Pixar and deep admiration for John Lasseter and his team. I'm thrilled to be able to show audiences their first glimpse of Episode II with Monsters, Inc. It gives me an immense sense of pride to see our companies working together."
RO Comps

***Halloween RO Comp***
This is very short notice, and I must apologize for that. The object of this comp is to create an EH Halloween graphic. It doesn't matter the size, but it must involve the EH and something with Halloween.
Awards:
1st - IS-GR
2nd - IS-SR
3rd - IS-BR
ENDING: 11.2.01
Please send your submissions to: Fleet Admiral Keiran Idanian
***Trick or Treat Prank Contest***
Again, very short notice, but this will be a lot of fun. As suggested by my CA, Maverick, what you do is take your squadron banner, or a rival squadron banner and put a prank on it. Then submit it to Fleet Admiral Keiran Idanian
Awards:
1st - IS-GR
2nd - IS-SR
3rd - IS-BR
ENDING: 11.4.01
Please send your submissions to: Fleet Admiral Keiran Idanian
***RO Comp***
Another graphics comp from the RECON Office. I know...graphics, some people can't make them, but don't worry next month there will be one for everyone, not just graphics people. :)
In this comp, you'll need to design either a banner or graphic for the Imperial Survey Corps (ISC). The banner should be the size of every other banner, about 400 x 40 pixels. The graphic should be about the size of a splash banner, about 800 x 500 - max. The Imperial Survey Corps searches the Internet and RL for ways to help the EH out by letting people know about this. So, something like Corevettes or scout ships for graphics - just a suggestion. There will be two awards. One for the banner and the other for the graphic. You may do either one or both! :)
Awards:
1st - IS-GR
2nd - IS-SR
3rd - IS-BR
STARTING: 10.12.01
ENDING: 11.12.01

Battles to fly: go to http://vanguard.phpcoding.org/ click the pbt link on the left and submit for Scorpion --- this is the online version of our battle board, look at the number needed column to see what battles need to be flown.
I would like every pilot to either compete in one MP event or one single player battle per week to get citations for the squad, this is to get to our goal of 50 by December 1st(this is 20 away not that hard, also when we get there i was promised PC's by our WC, Maj Leeson). So my Knights of the Phalanx Order go out and kick some Furry butt for the VAN.
done by: Lord Knight Ekim Yellek, Lord of the Grand Order of the Phalanx
Commander’s Goals
- For every pilot to fly XWA battles 1-10, the basics first i think, then XWA IW missions and XWA FCHG 1
- Every pilot to compete in one multi-player competition per week
- For every pilot to post one message on the squad, wing, BG, TIE Corps message boards
- For every pilot to recruit at least one new pilot, to the VAN
- For every pilot to attain the rank of Cavalier or 150 FCHG points
- For every pilot to compete in competitions, even if you don’t do well compete
