Commodore's speech

Well, we're a day late, but who's counting. Today marks the start of the last week of the February Frenzy. Details are below and in a separate email!

The AWOL check abord the ISD-II Hammer is progressing. I still have not heard back from everyone, but I will be sending out another reminder in a few days. After that, all bets are off.

On with the news aboard the ship this week: first off - kudos to CM SilviusGold Star of the Empire. If his activity keeps the way it is I'm certain it won't be the last. Keep it up! Also kudos to those who received a Silver Star of the Empire (me), Bronze Star of the Empire (COL Aznable, GN Both and CM Arkson), a Palpatine Crescent (COL Clark and LT Miakiri) or Imperial Security Medal (LCM Renalds, LT Antu and GN Harvey). And yes, you read that right.

One of the highlights of the week of course was the promotion of our Beta Commander, COL Harvey to the rank of General. Another General within our ranks! Drink are on him for the rest of this month!

Another highlight is the removal of a sub-lieutenant from the roster, as SL PaparazZit also earned a promotion. He is now a full lieutenant, which leaves only one sub-lieutenant on our roster.

To those who play Star Conflict and thought they couldn't screw the game up any more than they already have, wityh the introduction of the new Destroyer-class vessel - you're wrong, they can. Apparently, a rank 11 Destroyer isn't a problem in a Tier 3 match. Well, not unless you're the one in that thing, but for everyone else, the game just got a whole lot worse :(

Bad news, we have as well this week, as CPT Nutrientman hopped aboard a shuttle to the M/FRG Phoenix. Of course only under strict orders to annoy the out of HA Frodo!
 

 
Wing Commander's Corner

Listen up! Some of you haven't yet responded to the AWOL Check I have set in motion aboard this rustbucket. Perhaps you are unaware of the consequences of not responding to this AWOL Check. Let me explain them to you in detail so you know what you are facing:
- first there will be public shaming as we tie your dirty underwear to the Hammer's Shield Generator Towers for all the fleet to see!
- we will put ewok clothing on you, put you on display in the cafeteria where we will all start laughing at you hysterically!
- last and worst of all: we will enforce a transfer to the Warrior for you where you may live out your days in shame

To put it short: respond to the AWOL check!

    Commodore's Competitions

    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.

  • week 4 TIE Fighter: Assigned mission: TIE free 274. The objective is to win getting as many kills as possible
  • week 4 Star Conflict: Fly a PvE match - The quickest win is what counts here
  • week 4 picture round: address: http://tc.emperorshammer.org/timetest.php?testid=925137 - name the building and the city it is in, whoever gets most in the least amount of time wins
  • week 4 gaming round: London Rex - http://www.in.com/games/playgame-london-rex-61205.html - highest score 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!
