Diamondback squadron weekly report #51
LC Gidda, 02/16/2003


- SQUADRON NEWS -

  • LCM Ace transfered to Chet Squadron (Wing IV). His decision has nothing to do with Diamondback or the Intrepid, Ace lost interest in playing XWA, XvT and TIE so he decided to transfer out for not damaging our squadron (funny how Sov is first choice for those who seek a "not so active" squadron :p).
  • This week CPT Derek Dan has released CitBoard, a brand new software to keep track of squadron citations. I've tried the program and I must say that it's simply great! I suggest all of you to download it immediately from: http://ddsoft.minos.net. An Help file is included and will teach you how to configure the program.
  • CPT Drako has uploaded a new webpage for Diamondback squadron! The url is diamondback.squadron.org Database is still under development so don't worry if you encounter error messages.
  • CPT Linoge is the new Competitions Officer. He will check TC news and Messageboards to find new competitions and opponents for Diamondback.
  • After the great effort put in SC V some of our pilots are taking a period of rest. LCM Hubert, CM Arti and CPT Linoge are currently on leave.
  • FCHG: Derek Dan has broken the 2000 FCHG points wall again, too bad that new OPS rules forbid career medals.


- TIE CORPS NEWS -

  • 10 patches for XvT (re)-released
    11:42 - AD Ender mBind [mindb_ender@hotmail.com]
    The T/Pr, T/Dr, T/G, T/SB (formerly SB-III), A-9b, K-W, S/Y-W and M/A-W have all been updated to be on slot #11 (tienew2) and can now be installed with others that aren't on that slot. Several stats changes here and there, all new installers and the T/Dr and S/Y-W received new OPTs.
    The Mobquet Transport and the M/FRT the Luggage have also been released for XvT and more patches are coming up shortly, also for XWA and TIE.

    More on the patches is in the SCO report, the patches themselves you can get from the Patch Archive on the Science Office Site. If you encounter any missions with these craft that haven't been updated since yesterday, report it to the TAC. Report other bugs to me.

  • Flight Officer Promoted
    04:43 - AD Marcin Szydlowski [pbmike@go2.pl]
