?Welcome to the Combat Operations Office report #24!


News
Lots of discussion about the future of the TC and the EH in general, I hope everyone has been following along and has voiced their opinion or concerns either to their Flight Leaders or their Squadron Commanders, or have been posting on the MB. The first round of PvE competitions went off without a hitch and had a much bigger turn out that I had expected. This will continue from now on in the hopes that when the PvP queue starts taking forever to start, you'll be able to jump over to PvE and continue to fly and attain medals.

This marks the second to last report that I shall be sending out as COO. After talking with the TCCOM and SOO, as well as the culminated occurrences that have happened this year have led me to see that I should step down as COO. My tenure will culminate at the end of this month with my last report coming out on the 30th (barring Drachen's attempt to push the limits of submitting screenshots). At that time I will be requesting to be placed within one of the active squadrons aboard either the ISD Warrior or ISD Hammer. I will save any long winded speech for my last report or a separate email, but I will say this...It has been an honor and privilege to have served as your Combat Operations Officer, and I look forward to flying with you all again soon.

Competitions:
COO Monthly Challenge - This competition will be for the coveted DFC. Your goal will be to get the highest number of kills you can get in one round of Star Conflict's Domination or Team Battle modes. So in other words, you will need to get as many kills as you can during Domination or Team Battle. Numbers will be tracked by myself when processing LoC submissions.

MP Ace of the TIECorps - The MP Kill Board will used to keep track of points. Each LoC earns you a point for the competition, and a DFC counts for 5 points. Whoever scores most points win. The numbers on the MP KillBoard at the end of the month are the numbers that are tallied. If there are three participants then IS-GW/SW/BW, if only two IS-SW/BW, etc. At the end of the year the top 3 pilots with the most points will receive IS-PW/GW/SW. XWA, XvT, Star Conflict, SWTOR: Galactic Starfighter, and Freelancer-Freeworlds are the authorized platforms for this competition.

Star Conflict Wingman IV - This will encompass all modes of Star Conflict. Your goal is to get the highest assist count in a single mission.

MP Co-op of the TIECorps - The MP Coop Kill Board will used to keep track of points. Each LoC earns you a point for the competition. Whoever scores most points wins. The numbers on the MP KillBoard at the end of the month are the numbers that are tallied. If there are three participants then IS-GW/SW/BW, if only two IS-SW/BW, etc. At the end of the year the top 3 pilots with the most points will receive IS-PW/GW/SW. XWA, XvT, Star Conflict, SWTOR: Galactic Starfighter, and Freelancer-Freeworlds are the authorized platforms for this competition.

Star Conflict Co-op Effective - This will encompass the PvE Battle modes of Star Conflict. Your goal is to get the highest efficiency (EFF) count in a single mission.

Emperor's Hammer Corporation Update
Sadly again, I wasn't able to get on at the end of the month to get the numbers. Will have to make a note to do so at the end of this month.

Avenger Squadron
For Avenger Squadron, we decided to do something a little different this year, instead of taking the top 12 from each month, we will be taking the top 12 pilots from the yearly total section of the MP Kill Board. Should I ever make it to the list, I will be removed and the next one in line will be the 12th member.

Conclusion:
Shoot Straight!
In the closing of this report, I've come across an interesting game. Though while I found in through Facebook, it is not required to be played through there at all. Vega Conflict is a space fleet game that does kind of fall into the same realm of Star Wars: Commander, but in space. You get to build your own fleets, attack the random cargo fleets, other players fleets and their bases to gain medals. If anyone is interested in this and wants to join forces, let me know as I can have an alliance made to help us out, and to let you know what sector I'm in.
