Welcome
to a New Year for the TIE Corps fleet!
There
hasn’t been much going on recently except my inbox full of a shuttle load of
medal requests as the end of the year comps wrap up. New events will get going quickly though. I
have two competitions that will kick off right now. The first, is a
continuation of TIE Corps on Patrol. The next is TIE Corps
Pilot League. The rules
will be a little different, so read through them in the competition section
below and on the competition page of the website. The
campaign should be starting soon, so get ready for that! Also, I am contemplating one more SP comp
involving battles instead of free missions, but I’m still ironing out the
details. Finally,
with the end of the year and another month, get those MSE’s in! |

TIE Corps on Patrol 2018: Rules: It’s a new year, so this will change a
little. Every TWO weeks, there will be
a free mission from each of the major SP platforms (TIE, XvT,
XWA) assigned. Pilots will fly each
mission that they choose and BSF the battles to the TC database and forward
the BSF email to Pete Mitchell. If the
pilot has earned a high score, BSF it and also send
the pilot file to Pete Mitchell in case the BSF is not approved in time. BSF emails/pilot files will be due by 5 pm
Pacific/8 pm Eastern/1 am London one every other Monday starting January
15. Each week the pilot with the highest
score in each platform will earn 4 points.
The next highest score will earn 3, the next highest 2, and all other
submissions will earn 1. If the
winning pilot in a platform also earned a high score, that pilot will earn 5
points for that platform. Points will
accumulate for the week, month, and year for more awards. Awards: Annual: IS-PW/GW/SW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the year.
(at least 5 participants) IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the year in each platform (at least 4
participants) Monthly: IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the month (at least 3 participants). Weekly: IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd
total points for the week (at least 3 participants). IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd
in each platform (at least 2 participants). The first missions assigned are: TIE-Free
295: Starfighter Histories: TIE Defender XvT-Free 224: MTT11: Interdiction TIE Corps Pilot League 2018: Rules: This competition is similar
to TIE Corps on patrol, but it is handicapped to make it accessible to
more pilots. Every TWO weeks, there
will be a free mission from each of the major SP platforms (TIE, XvT, XWA) assigned.
Pilots will fly each mission that they choose and BSF the battles to
the TC database and forward the BSF email to Pete Mitchell. If the pilot has earned a high score, BSF
it and also send the pilot file to Pete Mitchell in
case the BSF is not approved in time. BSF emails/pilot files will be due by 5 pm
Pacific/8 pm Eastern/1 am London one every other Monday starting January 22. Each week the pilot with the highest
handicap score (expressed as a % of the high score) in each platform will
earn 4 points. The next highest score
will earn 3, the next highest 2, and all other submissions will earn 1. If the winning pilot in a platform also beat
the high score (without the handicap added), that pilot will earn 5 points
for that platform. It is possible for
a pilot to be the only pilot to beat the high score, and not win that
platform. If for example, pilot A got
90% of the high score and has a 25% handicap for a total of 115%, and pilot B
got 105% of the existing HS (and earned a new HS) with a handicap of 5% for a
total of 110%, Pilot A would win the platform for the week for 4 points and
pilot 3 would only earn 3 points. Points will accumulate for the week, month,
and year for more awards. Handicaps will be calculated as follows: The average score in the platform as a
percent of the high scores will be calculated as an average of all scores on
that platform since the beginning of the League (avg). The handicap will be calculated as the
difference between the average and 100%.
For example, if a pilot’s average score in TIE is 75% of the HS, his
handicap will be 100%-75%=25%. If a
pilot then scored 85,000 pts on a mission with an existing HS of 100,000
points, his handicap score would be 85% + 25% = 110%. Awards: Annual: IS-PW/GW/SW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the year.
(at least 5 participants) IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the year in each platform (at least 4
participants) IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd most improved averages over the year in each platform (at
least 4 participants, must have flown at least 10 missions) Monthly: IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd
and 3rd total points for the month (at least 3 participants). Weekly: IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd
total points for the week (at least 3 participants). IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd
in each platform (at least 2 participants). The first missions assigned are: TIE-Free
1: Ja24 #1: Current HS: 110,784 XvT-Free 1: Assault on Ravent:
Current HS: 70,101 XWA-Free
1: Battle of Midway: Current HS: 16,411
