Official Scoreboard: http://rtf.tsaunders.net/

This competition will determine the Flagship of the TIE Corps, the TCCOM’s Escort Squadron, and TCCOM’s Wingman for the next 12 months. Any forms of activity presented by the pilots will grant points to their ships.

The following squadrons are not attached to any of the 3 active Battlegroups.

• EHCS without a TC profile will take part under the banner of Avenger Squadron
• TCCS take part as Arbiter Squadron
• Neither of the above squadrons are eligible for placement.

Point System

Single Player mission flown from the TC Battle Center

• 2 points for each TIE mission
• 3 points for each XvT mission
• 3 points for each XWA mission
• 5 points for each X-Wing mission
• 5 points for each TFTC mission

Notes:
Each battle/free mission in the compendium can be flown only once throughout the month for credit in the competition. Note that battles already flown in previous months of this year are eligible to be re-flown for points in Raise the Flag, however, they will not count towards Ace of the TIE Corps competition awards.

High Score bonuses are only earned once per mission / battle. A pilot does not earn more bonus points for incrementally resetting a High Score.
