In the Emperors Hammer TIE Corps losses are high, As we came back from the Sovereign battle we had eight remaining pilots we were definitely mourning for the lost four but coming out of a battle of that magnitude, we were outnumbered six to one, with eight pilots, we were in ecstasy! We jogged out of the hanger straight to the closest cafe bar. Most of us had heavily spiced ales, but Tack for one, well lets just say he wanted to stay alert, lately he has been aware all the time and worried about something but would not tell us. The bar was more like a cafe of sort, there was the actual bar but then there were two levels, the bottom with tables all the way across and the top with only room for a wall booth and a table and a floorless area to the bottom floor. We were seated in the bottom section in the middle area. Back to the previous days events, after about four (of mine) drinks, closer to two for the lighter drinkers in the squad, Tack decided he was sick of his NA grain drink and dove in to the heavy stuff, similar to my spiced Corellian ale, I prefer Aldariniaan but it is too expensive to the TIE Corps to stock since most of its pilots couldn't afford it anyway. He kept up to me for about five more and dropped his head coldly on the table. I threw my remaining drink on his face and slapped him from across the table. I soon realized what I had done and went over behind him and saw the hole. About the size of a comlink, with almost no blood and covered by his hair. It had split the skull plates the amateur coroner on board told us. It had to be Bounty Hunters. I hobbled over to the bar and leaned over to slip out a bottle of booze, I came up with some unknown stuff but it was plenty strong so I didn't care, come to find out the barman put it on my tab in double, and I chugged about half before I fell to the floor. I was told that I was dragged to my quarters by Braxus and Slade. Two days later when we were all sober the inauguration for Braxus took place in front of the Hammers Fist Finest, or IFF. Enah awarded him with promotion to Commander and command of Flayer Squadron of the ATF. The celebration was a lot better than the post Sovereign drinking, and I didn't need to be carried/dragged to my quarters. We were now seven, with one of our finest pilots gone.     Report of Death of Major Brad Tack,      Tycho Celchu Flayer Report # 1   By CM Braxus Well, this is my first report as Flayer's new CMDR. We'll all miss Tack, he was a fine officer and one of the finest CMDRs this squad has ever seen. I could never fully replace him. For those who dont know me, I've been a member of Flayer Squad since it was commissioned over a year ago under the Command of CM Predator (Now Proconsul of Clan Taldryan). Ive recruited a total of 10 pilots to her since then. I have been Flight Leader of Flight 2 for 9 months until now. I've seen Flayer go through good times aswell as bad. First, I have fully updated the Squad site, so check it often for Orders and Assignments. The Squad Message Board is now fully operational. Congrats to LT Kniffin on his promotion for completing his INPR. Now, Im trying to set up a weekly Squad meeting on mIRC. It will be held everyweek and will be manditory unless RL interferes. I need all of you to email me with all the times and days you know for a fact you are available, after reviewing these with LT Celchu we will set a time and day thats good for all. Everyone should be as active as they can, everyone in the squad knows that RL (real life) takes up alot of your time, but every moment you can spare to the EH would be greatly beneficial. I want to see you guys being active!!!!, you could fly single player battles or multiplayer ones, write fiction, recruit new members, or help me with the squad website. The more active you are the better the chance of you being promoted and recieving medals!!!   :)  (my personal favorite). And lastly can everyone send me all data on any other sub-groups you guys are in other then the TC, like the DB? I also need your AIM and mIRC names.    Thanks. Anyone who doesnt send me an Email by July 9th at midnight EST will be declared AWOL and removed from the squad!!!!!!!!!!!!!    This is of upmost importance. Wing News: Nothing so far, but will be updated soon. Squad Orders: First, im holding a new Squad/Flight motto and nickname competition. It will be held today untill next Tues. the 2nd. Any that I pick for the Flights will recieve an IS-BR, and any that I pick for the squad will recieve an ISM!!! So, get thinking. Lets come up with some good ones people!!!! Next, every week ill assign us a battle from TIE, XWA, and XvT to complete (including me but i dont get a medal). Whoever gets the most total points, will recieve an IS-BW. Also, whoever completes the most battles that same week will recieve an ISM. This weeks assigned battles are: TIE-TC 184, XWA-TC 23, and XvT-TC 5. Good Luck and High Flying!!! We need to get our Squad Citations up. Send all Pilot Files to me by the end of this week. Remember the deadline is Tues. 07/02!!!!! We also need a new Flight Leader for Flight 2. The pilot who completes the most overall missions (including the assigned ones) by July 5th will recieve this prestigious position. So get in those cockpits and fly your asses off!!!!!!! Finally, I want you guys out there recruiting for us. From this time on, any pilot the recruits a pilot to this squadron will recieve an ISM for ever recruit!!!!!! Lets get Flayer back to Full strength!!!!!!! Pilot Activity: CM Braxus - Completed Battle TIE-TC 181, updated Squad site, given the rank of CM, and assumed command of Flayer. LT Iron Jack - No contact. Give me a shout! SL Nick Kniffin - In contact via Email. Completed his INPR, received full LT. Good Job!!! LT Blayburn - Havent heard from you, Give me a shout!. LT Slayer - No contact. Give me a shout! LT Celchu - Active in helping me with the squad, wrote the fiction at the beginning of the this report. Final Thoughts: Guys everyone is doing a great job in this time of change. Fly missions, take IWATS courses, keep in touch via email, and do whatever else it takes to make us the best. Good Luck & High Flying. Braxus Out.
