Wing IV News
1) The Wing IV SL playoffs are offically over, I have spoken to COL Ricardo and the results should be announce within the next couple of days. Once they have been released I will be awarding the medals :)
2) There is also another comp currently running. The Sov Combat Readiness Comp. All you have to do is fly as many as possible of the following Missions. They are
TIE-FREE 160
XvT-FREE 50
XWA-FREE 29
All pilot files should go to your CMDR's before the 4th October as I want the results in by then. Lets show the rest of the Sov who was born ready :)
3) Concerning the Doctor position, I can reveal that one of you has applied for the position of Wing IV Doc (God help us all :P). All we need now is a nurse. All applications for the nurse position should be sent to LC Astarosa at
4) The 'Find the Ewok' comp is offically over. Congrats to CPT Malik for finding the last Ewok. It turned out MAJ Halcyon had it all along. Sadly to say the furry little critter ( I do mean the ewok :P) is currently receiving counsilling after what Halc made it do :P
5) We may not be the smallest Wing at the moment but that is no excuse not to recruit. Pick a couple of cadets from the roster and offer them some help. Whatever you do DON'T send a mail saying join my squadron/wing coz were great (even though it is true :P). Lets see if we can get our roster up a bit.

3) Playing custom EH battles
03:44 - FA Striker [striker@tiecorps.org]
When you fly a free mission or battle, always make sure you have the up-to-date version, by checking the Battle Center. i don't make announcements of battle updates, which doesn't mean some are not updated... actually there are some quite every day or so, so make sure to fly the latest version. They are generally better (bug corrected or other things), so you will enjoy them better as well... I know some of you download a bunch of battles and fly them weeks after, just have a look on the last update date...!
Another thing, fly a mission at least twice before posting a bug report... if you didn't complete it at the first time, it doesn't mean it is a bug, even hot shot pilots can fail sometimes >:-)
Happy flying !

6) Imperial Storm final results
07:31 - VA Adrenaline [adrenaline@tiecorps.org]
As some of you may or may not know, the latest Imperial Storm Exercise has ended (about a month ago).
As a Task Force Admiral of this years exercise, I would like to extend my thanks to Pri for making it possible, and although it ended a bit prematurely we here at Task Force DOOM had a lot of fun. I know I speak for the entire Battlegroups when I say that we're looking forward to the next IS to start, and with the recent assignment of VA Pel as our new War Officer I'm sure it won't be long.
As posted in the latest Flag Office report :
The final Imperial Storm II results are out:
TF Doom - 1780 Victory Points
TF Silver Saber - 1345 Victory Points
TF Flaming Arrow - 1020 Victory Points
Congratulations to Vice Admiral Adrenaline and her team.
