TC/ID/Prae News:
The TAC Office recently released FXvT182, FXvT183 and the new Prae battles TC-XvT110 & TC-XvT111 (created by former Praetorian MAJ Chris Cox- personaly I liked them except for the fact the T/Pr patch wasn't used making the battles kinda lame in my eyes- a T/A is a poor replacement for a T/Pr). Ric faces off against LT Impulse on Saturday's Iron Mission Creator competition- the TAC assigns each person the same basic plotline and each creator has a few hours to create a new free mission. So far its been a interesting competition.

EHNL106 has been released by GA Astantine (both Torres & I spammed it ID style;p.) - http://media.ehtiecorps.org/files/nl/nl106/

Additionally there's new URL's for the Flight Office: http://flightoffice.ehnet.org
The new Internet Office site is online now! It is located at http://ehnet.org/.
Also, the EH IO Links Database has been moved to http://links.ehnet.org/. The old address at lenvik.org redirects to the new address.

Flight Deck:
in TIE-ID2 mission 4 the friedly capital ship Ardent is not in the mission at all on easy making it incompletable; however, on medium the Ardent is present- no clue whats up here;p.
mission four of XWA-TC46 (on medium) is incompletable (easy works just fine though).
mission six in TIE-TC78 is seriously bugged and cannot be completed due to a mission critical craft (an ETR or ATR) never arriving.

Also, BoP-ID1, XWA-FCHG4, and TIE-TC96 were fixed awhile back by the Tactical Office.

keep posting the bugs! (I do report this to AD Frodo March & VA Master so they're aware of any problems with battles or free missions).

Prae Orders:
-participate in the new April competitions
-post on the Prae (and other) MB- the person who posts the most or is most influential in promoting discussion will earn the Prae Medal of Communication (MoC) for the month!
-Monthly flying requirements are in place: It's a mandatory requirement to fly at least one battle or four free missions a month, I will allow you to fly MP matches in place of the missions if you wish (I'm easy to work with usually);p.
-Recruit, our numbers are fairly steady: however, if you know of any exemplary pilots who meet our requirements feel free to let me know about them. Remember our requirements for being accepted to take the Prae trials are the rank of LCM with 400 FCHG; however, for a full status Prae it's still CM with at least 500 FCHG.
http://praetorian.rawx.net/join.php (the only exception to this rule I'm allowing is former Prae's who served more than three months; however, they must still have the min required FCHG of 500). We are elite after all.
-work on improving your own personal FCHG levels- remember we do have a few squadron specific rewards related to this! ;p.

For every 10 squadron citations you earn for Prae I will recommend you for a Imperial Security Medal (ISM).

COL Malik (51 citations altogeather)
