Omega Report # 0 (2003-06-02)

This report was submitted by GN Sasquatch


Okay, let's get rolling on the Omega Squadron report! My apologies that the report is a day late this week, but Outlook Express decided to roll over and die on me yesterday. Just a quick tip to anyone running OE under Win98 ... if anything happens to your address book (like, say, it gets corrupted, which is what happened to mine), then OE will curl itself into the fetal position and refuse to function. I don't pretend to understand it, but OE won't even let you READ your e-mails if it can't find your address book. (*Sigh*). Oh well ... rant over. Let's get on to the good stuff.


Squadron News
------------------------

- Everyone looking forward to Star Wars : Galaxies should be happy to know that the EH is already constructing our own Player Association (PA). LA Darknyte has put together a website which you can check out here : http://galaxies.minos.net (Note that minos.net is currently going through a transition period, so if the redirect URL doesn't work, try this one : http://www.minos.net/~darknyte ). And be sure to read the intro letter submitted by our favorite SWG Beta Tester, Compton himself!


- The latest EH Newsletter has been released, you can stop by either EH.ORG or EH.NET to download it or view it online.


- It looks like Operation : Outrageous Fortune, after several hard-hitting setbacks, has finally been called off. Op:OF was an ambitious project to begin with, and even though it didn't work out exactly the way everyone planned, it looks like a LOT has been learned about how to conduct future Sov wargames. Neither side seems to have a definitive lead over the other, so the War Office is going to calculate some competition totals that will be used to judge either the Red or Blue team as the winner.


- Our favorite crazy COM, AD Proton, has been awarded the Imperial Cross! Great work Proton, it's well deserved.


- CM Ras Kronar submitted a great little graphic this week, you will find it attached to this report. It seems that some tabloid is printing slanderous lies about Omega Squadron! ;-)


- Here's a quick rundown on the top 10 squadrons from CR#5, as submitted by MAJ Artyis :

1. Omega ............................... 361,568
2. Praetorian ........................... 349,581
3. Sigma ................................ 260,222
4. Pi ....................................... 234,549
5. Kappa ................................. 197,195
6. Alpha .................................. 151,686
7. Theta .................................. 133,492
8. Diamondback ....................... 129,694
9. ASF .................................... 100,896
10. Yod ..................................... 94,010

So it's official, we kicked butt in CR#5! Keep up the great work! The "long" results for CR#5 should be out sometime this week.


- We've got 3 possible Omega recruits, with one that is almost definitely going to join. Expect more on this is in a future "New Blood" mailing.


- One last bit of news this week, it looks like I'm a General again! I'm not one to break tradition, so the drinks will be on me.



Squadron Orders
-------------------------

- Fly FREE-TIE # 229, "Occupation of Inigew", for CR#6 of the Sovereign Squadron League! Deadline for this one is June 6th, this Friday -- which means that your last full day to fly will be this Thursday, the 5th. I currently have NO submissions, but I know that you guys like to work at the last minute. Don't keep me in suspense, get your submissions in! I'm attaching the mission to this report.

In some unrelated news, every time I try to spell the name "Inigew", I end up looking at the ReadMe on the battle to see how to spell it correctly. I don't know where Inigew is at, but I think they should change it's name!

- Pfffffft ... stupid Outlook Express. I have a love / hate relationship with OE. I love it when it's working, and I hate it when it's broken!
