Report ID: H.AD.050
Report date: February 14, 2016

Fifty. A magic number. Sometimes.

Today was a good week as I managed to nab myself an IS-BR. And with that, the Build your own Destroyer competition ends as we now have 3 TC pilots with a Destroer class ship in Star Conflict. I went with Archon. If you missed it, TCCOM Woody was the 2nd pilot to get one.

More good news: I earned myself another Medal of Tactics with Green Hammer when the TAC released TIE free 294. Now he just needs to BSF my pilotfile :)

February Frenzy week 2 is almost at an end, so you still have time to submit stuff!

We also had a new pilots placed in Delta this week: SL Jim en Thiellen. And with that, Delta is now full!

Lastly, Commendations of Loyalty were handed out this week. Grats to GN Both, COL Harvey, LCM Chrome, CM Silvius, CPT Doc and myself on getting one. I missed out the last 2 rounds, happy to have gotten one again :)

Listen up maggots! For the past 2 weeks since my assignment I have been going over this rustbucket top to bottom. There are some things going well, and some things going absolutely apeshit. I would especially like to remind all the deadmeat pilots in Gamma squadron to get their act together or I will personally throw them out of an airlock on my next round. I will not allow this ship to become as bad as the Warrior!

Dismissed!

new pilot!

Hammer's February Frenzy

Each week in February the Hammer's pilots shall be pitted against one another in several tasks, 4 each week. Each task will yield a winner, and to make things fair you will be given 2 flying task (TIE and SC) and 2 non-flying (photo IDs and online game) tasks every week. Per round and per task, the best performances with an IS-S* and IS-B*. Also, for each task you complete, you will earn points: 5 pts for 1st, 4 pts for 2nd, etc. 5th and below will get 1 pt. At the end of the competition, all your points will be added to determine the winner, and there will be an IS-GR/SR/BR for the top 3 finishers. As a twist, all pilot points will also count towards a squadron total, giving the two commanders with the best performing squadrons an additional IS-SR/BR. Specifics will be sent to the Hammer mailing list on Mondays.

Note I cannot yet give you the week 2 results - you still have a few hours to send in your submissions!

week 3 TIE Fighter: I will assign you a TIE free mission. The objective is to get a score as close to mine as you can.

week 3 Star Conflict: Fly a PvP match - objective to be specified in tomorrow's e-mail

week 3 picture round: I will email you the address of a page containing 10 photo's of aircraft. whoever gets most right in the shortest time wins.

week 3 gaming round: JigSaw puzzle - whoever completes it fastest wins

please not the following:

for Star Conflict PvP and PvE I'm referring to the classic style game modes - PvP means against other people, and PvE means the original PvE game types, so no PvP bot matches

for the picture round, 'shortest time' does not mean 'first to send me the answers' - your time starts when you open the assigned URL and ends when you submit your answers.

for the picture round, not that you must submit all answers at once, you cannot submit a few and continue at a later point.

Dempsey's Weekly Screenshots

Every week, the report will have a screenshot. First pilot to send the correct answer to the mailing list wins. Each victory earns you an IS-BR. Unless it's a 5th victory, you then get a IS-SR. Unless it's a 10th victory, which gives you an IS-GR. A 25th victory will give you an IS-PR!
