Further
LoS refinements
'After
this current queue clearance, minimum time for
a match to count for the LoS is 5 minutes or
more.
Regards,
Admiral
Prower'
There
is currently come confusion over how this
change will effect playing Star Conflict (SC)
and we are currently standing by for
clarification on this rule. I'll e-mail the
squadron separately when this information is
provided.
Squadron Management 5 is now live!
I
am extremely happy to announce that the Squadron
Management 5 course is now live and ready for
you all to take! Not only that but I am honored
to function as your exam grader as well! This is
a prerequisite for anyone who wants to be a CMDR
in the future, and I also hope current and
former CMDRs will take it and glean something
from it.
Without further adieu, here it is!
Raise
the Flag 2020
Over
a decade ago, the TIE Corps Commander's dreams
became reality in a forum never seen before:
Raise the Flag, a giant combat arena where every
available ship, squadron and pilot was called to
duty to fight for power and glory. The
victorious would be granted the highest awards
and honors, and the ship would have the highest
responsibility of carrying the Flag of the
TCCOM.
Last year in 2019, the spoils of victory went
for the first time to the ISD Hammer, Epsilon
Squadron and Elwood the Brave, respectively
crowned Flagship, Escort Squadron and TCCOM's
Wingman
This year, the ships fighting for this flag are
the ISD Hammer, commanded by Commodore Elwood,
the ISD Warrior, led by Commodore Silvius, the
ISD Challenge, led by Commodore Dempsey and the
VSD Aggressor, led by TIE Corps Commander Plif
himself.
A wide range of activities will count points in
this competition. Details are in the usual
places. TIE Corps officers will partake in any
and every way they can for the glory of their
ships, their squadrons, and themselves! Every
battle, reputations are on the line in Raise the
Flag, as master pilots pit their activity
against each other.
Which vessel will become the flagship of the TIE
Corps? Whose laser beam will reign supreme? Who
will be the last ones standing?
It's time to Raise the Flag!
The
point values are a little different this year
with a much more elaborate breakdown in the
point values. As opposed to a single value for
SP, LoCs, and LoSs, we're now drilling down to
each specific platform. The idea is that not all
of the games take the same amount of time to
complete a round or mission in, so we're using
the RtF points to level that out a bit.

GS,
for those that don't remember it, is Galactic
Starfighter in Star Wars: The Old Republic. Just
like with the other PvP platforms, you can earn
an LoC for winning a match in GS with at least
one kill and submitting the screenshot through
the database.
Also,
we made some changes to the Art section's
points. There's one new activity worth points,
there's a new word minimum for writing, and
graphics can now be both as many points as
writing.
Art
Writing:
2-10 (50 word minimum)

2020
Every week before Saturday, 06:00 UTC,
Epsilon pilots submit their SC PvP/PvE/CoOp screen
with the highest EFF points to SmTaUcM@Yahoo.co.uk.
In each category (PvP/PvE/COOP) the best scorer
will earn 4 points, second will earn 3 points,
third 2 points and every further participant 1
point. These points will be summed up.
The pilot with most points at the end of the week
will earn an IS-BW. The pilot with most points at
the end of the month will earn an IS-SW, second an
IS-BW. The pilot with most points at the end of
the year will earn an IS-SW, second an IS-BW.
For each submitted screen (max 1 per category per
week) the pilot earns 1 activity point.
Every 10 activity points the pilot earns an IS-BW.
When reaching 50 activity points the pilot earns
an IS-SW instead and the activity points are set
to 0 again.

CLOSING
REMARKS
|
There's lots of news to
digest this week and there's a great vibe around
the ship's deck with RtF now well under way.
Activity has been low for us all this week though
as we come out of the summer holiday season that
is to be expected, though I would like to remind
everyone that it is key that you keep in touch
with me, even if you are unable to be active in
any other way.
Please keep the RtF activities up! I would love to
see Epsilon come out of RtF in a strong position,
or even better yet, defend our coveted title.
Kindest regards
and happy hunting,
SkyShadow
