VANGUARD AND FLEET NEWS


Newstime!

I got no response for the Creativity Comp & Your COM needs your HELP! so no medals given there, also no response to my story comp, so i'm running it again this week, keep your COM happy and resond! A nice IS-BR is up for grabs!

Also 2 new comps below in the comp section (i emailed you all last night about them) and finally 10th of September is the deadline for the VANFlying comps, so lets get going Vanguard members!

----------

Last weeks story........


(A TV played away to itself....yet again!)

Peviously on Sicky The Rebel Slayer!

COM SickMan and his faithful side-drunk WC Drax Remlinger were deep inside Rebel space to discover the secrets of the new Rebel brew, after discovering that the brew had no alcohol in it, Draxy shouted as Sicky was going to drink it.......god knows was this non-alcoholic beverage would do to the old boozehound.

"SICKY, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!"

Then quickly the glass of beer Sicky was holding exploded as a blaster shot hit it, he quickly turned around and drew his own blaster

"Kyra? why did you do that? and what the hell are you doing here?"

Kyra, SickMan's personal HRD explained

"for one, that beer was non-alcoholic, also i'm programmed to protect you, i wasn't going to stay back on the shuttle and play Sabaac with that stupid droid, plus i thought i'd splice into the Rebel network while i was on a walk-about, found out some interesting things too"

"Non-Alcoholic? then why's it selling so well, whats in it that makes a person think he/she is drinking regular beer, somthing is not right here"

Before anyone could think the door of the tapcaf burst open, Rebel troops poured into the building and faced the 3 Imperials

"Well, well, well, we are honoured by a visit of a Vice Admiral, a Colonel and a rare HRD, can you explain your presence here in Rebel space?" The Rebel Commander asked

"I count 20 in total, give me the word and they shall cease exist" Kyra whispered in Sicky's ear

Sicky turned to Draxy and nodded with a grin and Draxy nodded back and said "lock and load"

-------

What will happen next? is this the end of the 3 Imperials? now it's up to the members of the Vanguard, write to Sicky what you think will happen next, the best will be printed here next week and will be awarded a IS-BR too:)



SickMan's words of the week = see that mark on the wall, thats where i like to bang my head some days!

NOTE to CMDR's, please remember to forward this to your pilots

TC NEWS


Sovereign League XWA Battle Creation Contest
10:34 - HA Priyum Patel [spellfire@btinternet.com]
The SSSD Sovereign Squadron League coordinators are pleased to announce a battle creation competition leading up to the SSL 2004. The Sovereign League XWA Battle Creation Contest runs through 12/31/2003, and is open to all XWA mission creators in the TC.

Entrants must create a four-mission XWA battle, absolutely without patches, for use in the SSSD Sovereign League 2004.

The competition has four monthly rounds; each month, a "best battle" will be selected by the Sovereign League judges. The winner of each round will receive an IS-GR; runner-up, IS-SR; and third place, IS-BR.

The SSL judges desire to use high-quality XWA battles for the SSL 2004. XWA creators will construct one or more four-mission battles (no less or more than four missions); absolutely no patches are to be used with the battles. Top battles will be judged by the SSL staff, then sent off to the TAC office. The TAC has agreed to accelerate testing and confirmation of the winning battles so they will be available in the compendium in time for the start of the SSL 2004 in January. Medals awarded for this contest will be separate from any TAC-awarded mission creation awards.

Competition details can be seen at: http://www.emperorshammer.net/competitions/details.asp?ID=856

Send all questions and entries to LC Todbringer, MAJ Artyis and AD Proton at todbringer@poczta.onet.pl, artyis@silvershark.com.pl and hullbreach@warpmail.net.
