Activity
Overall a slow week in activity, however with pilots returning to school, moving, and other various RL issues it is understandable. I only ask that each of you try to find time in your busy schedules to have some level activity this next week. ;)

Recruiting
We are still in need of new pilots gentlemen. Let’s go get those new recruits pilots! ;) We need four more pilots to be a full squadron again! Your CMDR’s personal thanks to the members of Samekh that have taken the time to recruit. I encourage everyone to send out letters offering assistance to as many CT’s as you can. Remember, no invitation to join Samekh or Wing V is to be issued. Big Brother is watching the emails sent to Daedaleus, so don’t let me receive any notifications from the FO, TO, or SO about recruiting violations.

EH/TC News
XWA Battles corrected
06:09 - FA Striker [striker@tiecorps.org]
A little present for you XWA pilots... I have updated and cleaned the following XWA Battles:

TC-XWA Battle 1
TC-XWA Battle 2
TC-XWA Battle 3
TC-XWA Battle 4
TC-XWA Battle 5
TC-XWA Battle 6
TC-XWA Battle 7
TC-XWA Battle 9
IW-XWA Battle 23

Some little details have been added like enabling wingmen radio and so on... if any creator of these battles want something to be change, just tell me. IW23 has been fully updated to better standards...

New released battles
06:06 - FA Striker [striker@tiecorps.org]
All the battles and corrections announced in the last report of Fleet Admiral StarLion have been uploaded and added to the database...happy flying ! I would recommend you TC-XWA Battle 17 but you would see I have no shame, as I made it :P

Reminder on mission skipping
06:12 - FA Striker [striker@tiecorps.org]
Mission skipping is only allowed if a bug prevents you to complete a mission. It is strictly forbidden to skip a mission just in order to complete more easily the battle if no fatal bug is present in this mission. Even in XWA where skipping a mission is an ingame option, only use it in case of bugs. If you encounter a fatal bug and skip a mission, tell your CMDR when submitting the pilot file. CMDRs, please state then the mission has been skipped because of a bug; a bug report MUST also be filled by the pilot. Failure to do so may result in the cancellation of the BSF, the played battle being then removed from the pilot profile. The aim of this rule, part of the TC Cheating Policy since it exists, is to prevent people from gaining easy FCHG points in skipping missions without reason (FCHG points are awarded for the whole battle, even if you skipped a mission) whereas some pilots would take time to complete all missions. Fairness...:-)

New battle submissions ban
00:59 - FA Striker [striker@tiecorps.org]
The Tactical Office will not accept new free mission or battle submission until further notice. *Updated* versions from authors are accepted though. This decision is made for two reasons:
First, I need to make an audit of the Tactical Office to evaluate its current situation, following the resignations of both previous CAs, and to get a listing of the battles currently in the hands of the Tactical Staff
Secondly, new requirements are going to be set for submissions; you will need to pass the appropriate IWATS Course (TM,XTM,XAM) before being able to submit new missions, and you will have to send along with your battle/mission a pilot file to prove you did playtest it; little and painless requirements which should improve the efficiency of the Tactical Staff. The Tactical Manual is going to be updated as soon as possible.

Sovereign Commodore resigns
00:41 - SA Kawolski [absurefire@aol.com]
After four years and an a month, Fleet Admiral Kramer has chosen to hang up his Sovereign Commodore uniform.

As FA Kramer writes:
I resign my position as Sovereign Commodore effective immediately.
That may have been the hardest thing I've ever had to write. I've been in charge of the Flagship for four years, and loved every minute of it. I've made some fantastic friends, seen some amazing things, and I thank all of you for the great times I've had. I still love the Sovereign and the Empire as much as I ever have, however my time constraints in "real life" are such that I can no longer devote the time to one of my favorite pastimes.
I would like to thank everyone who has meant something to me, but I'd forget somebody important and I just don't want to do that. Thank you all . . .

He'll be greatly missed. Kramer is a great friend to myself and was an excellent Commodore.

New Tactical Officer
23:10 - SA Kawolski [absurefire@aol.com]
With the resignation of Fleet Admiral StarLion to be CA:TAC, Fleet Admiral Striker has returned to be the Tactical Officer once again!
IWATS AIM Course Released
04:09 - HA Astatine [jpboyce@indigo.net.au]
Thanks to the efforts of CPT Darknyte, there is now an IWATS course about the AOL Instant Messenger program. You can check it out at http://www.imperialacademy.org/aim/.

Less than 750 to go!
14:16 - HA Astatine [jpboyce@indigo.net.au]
That's right, IWATS now needs less than 750 graduates to hit the big 10,000. Do a course today and let the insanity end! :P

New Executive Orders
14:15 - SA Kawolski [absurefire@aol.com]
New Executive Orders (#4 and #5) have been posted on the Executive Office site at http://www.kawolski.com which will affect members who have been convicted by the High Court or are currently on trial.
