THE SWORD OF DARKNESS

Drop your Joysticks and shut up, you are now reading WSR No. 16, so lean back and enjoy, that’s an order ;)


NEWS

Yes, this week we have also some news.

Colonel Mell Kerrigan left the Challenge and transferred to the Sov, he will be back soon enough, no place is like home ;)

New Colossus WC is LC Samuel Shadd, those of you who hoped it would be me, nyah ;)

Well, more important to our Squad, congratulations to the newest pilot with a Silver Star, LCM SavageAz. He already complained about having no money left for buying us the drinks, so he will be set on stop of medals and promos ;) j/k

Aaaand, also congrats to LCM Infamus, who just got a Palpatine Crescent awarded for his performance in January. Congrats !!!!


Beside this I still hope for a few submissions for the Inferno vs Yod Competition, those who haven`T sent their files in, you know what to do, and leaning back and relaxing is not what I mean :)

Commanders Corner

Alright Gentlemen, the month is over ! It wasn`t a very busy month for me, but I will be glad when we can hold the level of activity in March. So far we have 605 flown missions on our account, that’s excellent ! But when you look at the activity parts you will also see who the most active pilots were. So try to fly at least a free mission per week and you have a happy CMDR, and I`m sure that it is what you want ;)

So far so good, I will send an update on Monday to you with a few new details and a few new ideas/suggestions and whatever comes to miy mind. So enjoy your weekend, and don`t forget to fly ;)

Oh, and I promised something to Sav :) If anyone who hasn`t flown following Battles does so, we earn a citation :)

TIE-TC 11,19,23, 24, 25,29,30,41,52,55,100,167,174
TIE-BHG 1
XvT-TC 3

Thats all :)
