FLEET COMP
Tactical Office is proud to announce new EH-wide competition.
Our main goal is to create a set of battles showing REAL cooperation
between multiple subgroups. In other words, EH working as a whole.
You people will have to create CABs (Combined Arms Battles) and send them
to Tactical Officer.
Competition will proceed in two phases.
Phase 1:
Creation of plotlines (used later to make CABs). This is phase for fiction
writers, etc. You create detailed plotline for your battle (story) and
submit it to TAC. My staff will judge it.
Awards like in FCHG competition:
IS-PR (or adequate subgroup medal) for best plotline and so on. (also every
plotline writer will receive CoS for his work).
Phase 2:
Creation of CAB battles based on plotlines submitted. Only those who
participated in Phase 1, will be allowed to join Phase 2.
Awards just like in Phase 1.
Important notes:
1. Teams are allowed, if they are multi subgroup it's even better. Team can
have 4 members max. (2 writers, 2 designers).
2. CAB rules must be followed. At least 3 SGs used. Also, your battle must
show real cooperations between SGs. (for example Tie Corps uses information
gathered by Intel, Infiltrator Wing secured HFs capture operations, etc).
Deadlines:
Phase 1 ends on December 18th 2002.
Phase 2 ends on December 31st 2002.
Winners will be announced on EH Birthday, January 7th.
Also. Best CAB will be marked as winner of CAB competition, and members
working on this CAB will be allowed to include short not in ID Lines.
More details:
I will be posting answers to FAQs on Mission Creation MB.
Competition thread: http://www.ehnet.org/mb/viewtopic.php?p=49850#49850
Please forward it ASAP. We don't have too much time, fortunatelly next year
we will have more :)
Thank you for you attention.
