Epsilon Squadron Weekly Report #30 – 19th September 2011


CMDR-TCS-PROF/MAJ Dunta Polo here reporting in for Epsilon.

Captain Gyssler continued his run of activity, which I’m sure will be rewarded appropriately after the MSE.


TIE Corps News

Admiral La'an announced changes to the ISDII Hammer’s battlegroup and squadrons in his weekly report. Among other alterations, Epsilon now consists of 2 flights of TIE Defenders, with flight III keeping its Missile Boats.

Fixes to the website and BSF systems have been discussed extensively by the TC rank and file (including myself) in the mailing list. The Admiralty has promised to take steps to resolve the long-term bugs and omissions in the current site database.


Wing I News

None.


Squadron News

1 pilot with flight activity this week.

2 pilots have been actively communicating.

Captain Gyssler is now leading Epsilon Pilot of the Month.

COL Exar Kit has been officially transferred to Alpha squadron.

Description: There are 9 million bicycles in Beijing.... Well, there used to be. As rumour has it, this rock will hit 7 BILLION people in 2011. So here's a crazy comp: kudos and shinies and everlasting bragging rights to whoever gets closest to the date the newspapers report 7 billion. Take a shot now :)

3. Epsilon Pilot of the Month


Start Date: September 1, 2011

End Date: September 30, 2011

Description: This competition is all about flight activity. One mission flown gives you 1 point. A mission with a high score is worth 2 points instead. The pilot with the highest score at the end of the month wins an IS-BW. Good luck!

Closing Comments

Activity has fallen this week, with only one pilot engaging in flight and one emailing to report in. This is less than ideal given the improved activity across the rest of the TIE Corps.

I did not receive feedback on what kind of competition Epsilon would be interested in, so by next week I expect to unilaterally announce a new squadron competition that will not involve the usual TIE\XvT\XWA flight platforms. However, should I receive comments or feedback I will take them into account.

Have a nice evening.
