Introduction
    
Hello Emperor's Hammer.
    
Another week has passed. Another busy week. I started to realize that I am not be doing my TAC duties as I should.
I am not on IRC very often, I don't have time to help Ender with Shield. Saturday is the only day when I can
do more TAC duties. Well. I try to keep up with HSs checking and other duties, but I feel that's not enough.
However I feel my resignation would do more harm then good, so I have decided to stay here and use my
knowledge and skills for EH. With outstanding Tactical Staff, I will be able to keep this office running for
one more month and then I will have more time :)
Mission Creation Corner
    
Special thanks to TCC:XvT for his tips :)
        
Well, what shall we begin with today? I think its a notable suggestion to start with Plotline design
and creation. Just exactly what is it that brings to mind a plot? Hmm...let see the inert want to
create a mission or battle that no one has yet to do. Well in this day and age, that's real hard to
accomplish, but it can be done. Usually one gets a fantastic idea to create a mission or battle while
flying someone else's creation.
           
With this in mind, you should a couple of things prior to starting your mission.tie file.

Final word:
    
Because I am very busy these days, use email to contact me. I am barely visible on IRC, so don't try to catch me
there, but you can try of course. I always try to check my mail, once a day, sometimes more :P
