Squadron Orders


-The competition between Wing X and Wing XX is drawing to a close! You guys have until the 30th to submit one of the below to me! As always, here are tghe details:

Part I - Fly TIE FREE #219, XvT FREE #97, XWA FREE #102 for the SP portion! The scores I've gotten so far for this part have been rather good, so great job there guys :) Hopefully I'll see two missing TFRs on my desk soon :)

Part II - Multiplayer flying in groups of 1v1 will be conducted in channel #asf. Not much of this has gone on, so it might not be a bad idea to give it a shot, eh?

Part III - Create a fiction dealing with a night of drunken behaviour where some of us Wing X pilots run into pilots from Wing XX in classic bad sitcom confrontation style ;)

Part IV - A graphics competition in which a Wing X Cantina banner must be made, keeping in the never ending spiritness of drunkness worthy to be part of the ISD Challenge.

All I really want is FREE-TIE #219, but I've been happy to get a number of other entrees in other catagories from you guys as well this month :)

-The Tempest Run-on continues! This week it kind of stayed still, so let's see if we all can't get on there sometime this week(myself included) and add a little bit more to it :)

-The Tempest Squadron Campaign of Dominance will begin anew in August. After being rejected by one CMDR who was quite chicken, I have set up a challenge later in August against Kappa Squadron, who should be a good challenge for all of us, so be prepared for that! :) However, I'm still gonna try to set up one squadron match before that... perhaps a Chal squadron would step up to the plate to go against us ;)

-Recruit! It pays off, it brings in pilots, it's good for everyone!

Squadron News


-Well, by now hopefully some of you guys have taken a look at my little run-on inspired free mission "Save Dirk Logan's Marriage" :) I do hope to do a few more frees like that that involve various members of Tempest Squadron, so be warned, you could be next ;) But either way, I think that free is some of my best work yet, so lay back and enjoy and feel free to comment upon :)

-Ammy applied for TOA, joining in the large Tempest Takeover conspiracy inside the TO office ;P

-I hit the magical 1000 FCHG points this week, making me the second Tempestation to go over 1000 this month, first being Master :)

-Other than that, twas a pretty quiet week this time in Tempest. Perhaps a few events next week will spice things up a bit ;)

-Now comes citation time! As always, these are non-mandatory, but they are quite helpful in increasing the number of citations we have, and better the appearance of our squad as a whole :)

Wing News


-One of the most memorable CMDR's, COL Beef, shall soon be returning to the Challenge, meaning Master and I can no longer hog all the Colonel's Club booze to ourselves. Ah well ;)

-A new Wing-wide comp that's a tad bit different is in the works, so be prepared for something a bit out there sometime in the near future

Fleet News


-The TAC office is hiring new testers for TIE. If you have some spare time and don't mind flying a battle every now and then, I highly encourage this, as the TAC office is definetly in need of some good testers at the moment. Email our own LC Styles if you're intrested in the job.

-Congrats to newly promoted VA Indaro Gallia of the ISD Colossus and newly-promoted VA Jahan Kalar of the ISD Relentless on their shiney new Vice Admiral rank :)

-Congrats to the new WC of the ISD Immortal, Major BubbaX

-The position of Wing XIII WC has opened up, and applications are due in today. If you're intrested, head over to the TC News page to get all of the details.
