-- NEW F.C.H.G. SYSTEM ---
Pasted from FA Dev's Office
---------------
Introduction
The Fleet Commander's Honor Guard is being revised to keep it current with the EH and to expand it to make it a much more active part. It uses a point system to determine promotions, with points being earned by flying missions, winning FCHG competitions, and other activities. Membership requires only acquiring enough points for the lowest rank. Entry and promotions are done by your CMDR or your superior officer contacting the OPS and his CA.
Points
Below is the point system used for the Fleet Commander's Honor Guard:
One point:
Complete an Emperor's Hammer Strike Fleet battle
One current high score
Two Points:
Design a battle for the Emperor's Hammer
Complete a FCHG specific Emperor's Hammer battle
Three Points:
Submit a high score for a EH or FCHG battle [not retroactive]
Completing a FCHG Competition battle
Four Points:
Design an approved FCHG battle
Five Points:
Design an approved FCHG battle for the mission competition
Fifteen Points:
Get the highest score on the selected battle during a FCHG competition
Design the best battle during a FCHG competition
It should be noted that designed missions MUST meet quality standards, and if they do not they are not worth any points. Also, to qualify for FCHG points, people flying a mission or battle must get at least 40% of the current high score (if any).
Competitions
CHG Competitions are run by the Operations Officer. How long they last and what battle they fly varies, but they consist of a set FCHG mission or battle to be flown and a mission design competition. You receive 3 points just for flying with a decent score in the FCHG Competition, and 5 points for submitting a mission, not to mention 15 if you win, so participate!
Rank Requirements
300 Points: Tyrant
150 Points: Paladin
100 Points: Knight
50 Points: Gallant
25 Points: Cavalier
10 Points: Dragoon
5 Points: Lancer

The first FCHG Competition is under way....these competitions will give plenty of FCHG Points....;)
