TAU REPORT
Report number : 19 (datalog 9/28/2003)
Captain Abel Malik reporting for Major Adrren Silvori,

ACTING COMMANDERS ADDRESS

Welcome Tau pilots to yet another briefing. I'm not too thrilled with the activity of most of you this week (LT. Glauron & LT Lance Menu ignore this part). I had to submit part III of the Tau vs Prae comp to the Prae CMDR with our mere three entries resulting in Tau loosing 1000 points off of the squadron average. What's even wierder is we won the XWA section of the comp with these three submissions too;p. Fate had delt us an odd hand indeed;p. Next up for the Tau vs Prae comp is the multiplayer matches in #Ehcoc which i believe takes place until October 3rd.

TAU RECRUITMENT:
Keep you eyes open for new pilots people, IF they're good enough, talk to them and talk to CMDR Silvori when he returns from leave.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

SQUADRON ORDERS: Go to Ehcoc and fly the Prae members in mp matches for part IV of the Tau vs Prae comp.

SQUADRON CITATIONS: with the battle compendium down at the moment due to Project Shield only being 80% complete (read the Tactical Officers report for further details), I'm suspending this section for the week.

Remember our CMDR wants at least one LoC or battle/mission per week for minimum activity. Neither of us likes to see "reported in" or mIRC activity alone.
