From the Commander's Office
Check out the Squadron Website for updated news, and odd things that still haven’t had the opportunity to update …sorry. Much props to LCM Jansen for maintaining the site…
Check out the Squadron Message Board for updated news, and stupid little things here and there that are at least somewhat relevant to the squadron. Again, nothing much that is relevant is here now, however that will soon change.

Jump in on this, guys, how hard can it be?
Fleet News
- COL Nightmare is the new Avenger CMDR…congrats!!!
- There is a search underway for a new Wing Commander for Wing XV.
- New IWATS courses are out there for Dreamweaver, Weaponry, Cascading Style Sheets and mIRC Scripting (give it up for Choosh!) – check these out…good stuff. Personally, Choosh gave me some invaluable tips/motivation to pass the mIRC Scripting Course…what a difference hanging out on mIRC can make…
- Valkyrie CMDR appointed – yay, it’s me! :P (yes, I’m really saying this again…sorry, I’m still excited!)
Promotions/Medals/Awards/Activity Report
CMDR/CM Malidir
Earned a Palpatine’s Crescent. Hung out on mIRC and made a few posts to some message boards. Also, I’m looking for a partner for the upcoming XWA Skirmish War, if anyone is interested…please let me know. Working diligently to master HTML so I can be more of an asset to the Wing – and so I can make prettier reports :P Oh, check out the new comps…medals at stake, all for the sake of activity…
FM/LCM Jansen
On leave until after Saturday. Chatted online for a bit regarding the oppressive demon that is RL.
FL/LCM Valin Drago
In contact with some very assertive statements as far as flying is concerned…great stuff…I hope that you will answer the CMDR’s call as to battles that should be flown – basically anything that will net us some more citations…check out the combat ratings…especially where XvT is concerned…and continue to preach the mentality of EH Communism.
FL/CPT Kael Malahk
- Quiet as a mouse…with your flying history, I’m sure you’ve got some more battles in you…
FM/LCM Mitim Tsaexin
Chatted a bit online…as the reigning fiction king, I’m looking for more of the same from you…plus whatever battles I deem necessary to achieve more citations (more details to come). Posted to the Valkyrie Message Board – let’s all make that more of a regular occurrence…
FM/LT Agrepa Hogo
-No contact with me. He has, however, been sighted on mIRC recently…drop me a mail, my good chap, if nothing else just to say hello :P
FM/SL Immortal
-No contact. Fix this!
Commander's Forum
Guys, let’s get out and fly some missions and attempt to get some more citations…the amount that our squad currently has is well below the rest of the Wing. Let’s see if we can prove them wrong and put them all in their place.
New Squadron Comps are in play – see below:
Start Date (mm/dd/yy) 4/18/2004
End Date (mm/dd/yy) 5/15/2004
Parties Involved Valkyrie Squadron
Missions/Battles Used none
Medals to be Awarded Iron Star Bronze Ribbon
Miscellaneous Information While some members of the squadron certainly appear to be pretty well educated as far as IWATS courses are concerned, in the past month or two a number of new courses have been released. They are a great way to learn new things, beef up your signature line and earn medals, which the pilot who passes the most courses each week for the next four weeks will do - a shiny Iron Star with Bronze Ribbon!
Start Date (mm/dd/yy) 4/15/2004
End Date (mm/dd/yy) 4/30/2004
Parties Involved Valkyrie Squadron
Missions/Battles Used Any free mission or battle in the TC Compendium, plus LoCs.
Medals to be Awarded Iron Star Bronze Wings
Miscellaneous Information Using the "bribery with medals" tactic, the whole of Valkyrie Squadron will compete to see who can earn the most FCHG points by the end of April. May the best pilot win...an IS-BW.
Personally, I really hope you guys participate in these squadron comps, as they are a great way to earn medals and knowledge, along with furthering your status among the TC “Powers That Be”.
Squadron Citations Corner
Squadron Citations (1):
XvT-TC Battle 14 - Orion Base Crisis
Valkyrie Squadron currently has a mere 1 citation. This, though rather meager, can easily be remedied with some diligent, targeted flying. I’m in the process of flying some additional battles myself to at least get us to 5 or more citations…1 is just well beneath us, I think you’ll all agree…
In service of the Emperor's Hammer!
