Just a friendly reminder to all members, as there have been multiple instances with this happening. I'm not calling anyone specific out and I am not chastising anyone either.

Please keep in mind that all Imperial University exam submitted before the end of Raise the Flag will count for the final score. We would highly appreciate it if members did not message and rush the course professors to grade the exams. The course will be graded within a timely manner and the successful courses will count towards the final score. Any course that reaches three days in the queue will be immediately graded by one of our diligent Training Office Assistants.

Thank you for your time, and great effort on all students this year!

From Epsilon Squadron CMDR CPT Nova Discordia:

Since joining the Emperor's Hammer in July 2024, Lieutenant Rurinix has shown himself to an amazing pilot to the Tie Corps - leading the way in his activity - flying, completing IU courses, taking part in competitions, offering advice & providing solutions to technical and game issues - whilst being fully engaged in everything else our community has to offer. In Epsilon, he is a shining light, illuminating our day-to-day community with his friendly, supportive and insightful messages. So, as his Squadron Commander, it is my great honour to recommend this outstanding pilot to the rank of Lieutenant Commander, as the next step on his journey upwards in our community of fans. Great work, pilot - much love, from your Epsilon Squadron family :)

Between the time of his prior promotion to Major on the ninth day, fifth month, Imperial Year 33, and the present day in Imperial Year 33 ABY, Major Maston Dane has represented Rho Squadron in the Commander role with daily engagement and encouragement.

While maintaining Rho Squadron’s proud history, Major Maston Dane has now reached the 19th Echelon of Flight Certification.

It is a rare occasion we get the opportunity to congratulate a pilot on reaching a pinnacle achievement in the TIE Corps. On 9/08/24, Major Wolve Excelsior Berkana completed 5,000 Player vs Environment points, earning the PvE Rank of Top Ace Ranger, a rank only held by ten individuals in the organization! Major Berkana is one of only two people in the TIE Corps’ 29-year existence to hold both top PvE and SP ratings! Please join me in Plif’s Asteroid Bar to congratulate Major Berkana for his momentous achievement! Well done, sir! Utinni!

A New Pilot Attains the rank of Tan!

During the reign of the great Empire, our visionary leader, Sheev Palpatine, once created a rank he granted to the most distinguished pilots in the Imperial Navy. This rank was reserved for pilots such as Anakin Skywalker and Maarek Stele, whose force-imbued exploits landed them into a group of warriors affectionaly known as the Emperor's Hands. To be labeled with the title of 'Tan' was to be given a distinction most pilots dreamed of and exceedingly few would ever experience.

Today, I would like to recognize a pilot among us who has earned the right to be called Tan. Joining the TIE Corps 17 short months ago, she would go on to dominate space combat within Star Wars: The Old Republic with more than 3,500 combat victories and setting the TIE Corps' monthly PvP record. On 09/01, Captain Isabis Kamaria crossed the 5,000 point threshold and reached the TIE Corps' pinnacle Player vs Player rating, being the third pilot in TIE Corps history to achieve the title Tan! Please join me in congratulating Tan Kamaria on her incredible achievement!

BGII - ISDII Relentless - Sword Squadron in hiatus

Due to unexpected personal needs across the leadership assignments, the Sword Squadron launch bay on the ISDII Relentless is now conserving power as the Pilots formerly assigned to the squadron have been variously reassigned to other active Squadrons in Battlegroup II or to the Reserves on the Modified Frigate Phoenix.

After Raise the Flag ABY 33 concludes, Battlegroup II will be actively seeking Commander assignment interest to reaffirm Sword Squadron’s legacy in the TIE Corps Fleet.
