Aurora Standard Date - February, 18th, 2005 - Report #46

"Computers can figure out all kinds of problems, except the things in the world that don't add up.- James Magary.

Welcome to a new Fury Squadron report. Settle down, we have a lot to discuss...

This week, another pilot joined us: LT Von Predator joins us from Hunter Squadron. He's a great pilot and I am
sure most of you know him. Von Predator has been assigned as Flight III Leader. I am expecting to fill FL III soon.

Another piece of interest is we have a squadron competition running: "Echo The Greats". It's a SW quotes comp.
Details are in the competitions section of this report. It's not easy, but manageble. Crack the puzzle first and the
reward is a nice shiny medal you deserve. It runs one more week!

COM Ky Terrak has stepped down as Commodore of the SSD Avenger. Ky was a great leader, did a lot of good on the
ship. He will be sincerely missed.

Squadron News:

• LT Von Predator joins the squadron as FL III. Welcome!
  
  
• New squadron competition running. Try it :). Number two in planning phase.
  

Wing/BG News:

• Unfortunately, SSD Avenger COM has resigned from his position. Clear skies, Ky!
  
  
• The Avenger Task Force vs. SSSD Sovereign competition has ended. Results are being compiled.  
  
  
• BGCOM TK-2107 is looking for fiction writers to promote our battlegroup in short stories. Contact him
  at tk2107@tiecorps.org if you're interested. 
  
  
• LC Andrijas broke the 1000 FCHG line. Nice work :).

  Very cool design.

EH/Tie Corps News:

• The Tactical Officer urges everyone to create new missions. Create some and get immortilized in the
  mission compendium. Find tutorials here:
  XvT mission Creation courses
  TIE mission creation courses
  XWA Mission Creation course
  Mission Creation Editors (all platforms)
  Mission Creation Tutorials
  The Tactical Manual
  Custom Battle Submission Form
  
  
• Important! The Science Officer informs everyone that flying missions for the TC with third-party (non-eh)
  patches installed is NOT allowed. This is because these patches can enhance scores or create other
  unfair disadvantages. Also they often conflict with EH missions.
  
  
• XvT-F#176 has been released!
  
  
• The Tactical Officer is urgently looking for new testers (TCS), correctors (TCC) and mission designers (TMD).
