Introduction:
     Another week full of work. Mostly coding Tac DB 2.0, progress is very good. I expect it to be sent to beta tests this month and released in December.

Tactical Office Objectives:
Task: How to do it?: % done:
Revise/update/fix the Tactical Manual Tactical Manual 3.0 has been released. My TACA is working on webpage layout, so soon online version will be avaiable. 100%
More support work relating to new platforms (Jedi Outcast/Academy, Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds) Unfortunately I didn't find anything intresting 75% done
Coordinate with Training Office in setting up training resources for new platforms I have signed up to Imperial Assault MBs. As soon as this mod gets released I will start working on mission creation 10%
Restart Project Phoenix and clear out any bug reports currently existing no corrections this week ~60%
Reform the Tactical staff from mission testers into a corps of mission designers I have included TMDs in Tac DB 2.0 and put this project on hold until it's done. 50%

Tactical Database:
     I have added so many things so I won't even mention them. I just say progress is good :) Also, there is TacDB 2.0 thread on Tactical MB, feel free to post your comments/suggestions there.

Tactical Manual 3.0:
     Waiting for my TACA to finish layout fot tac man. I also made slight changes to one of the sections, special thanks to Brucmack for pointing it out :)

Inactivity within the office:
     I have noticed a lot of inactivity within the office, even ammong the members of Tactical Command Staff. This WILL change immidiately. From now on I will be requiring TCCs reports on a weekly basis, Saturday morning (CET time) at the latest. Also, I will require TCHC report every week. We will start from the top. If I won't see some progress soon, we will have major changes.
     Line staff will be next in queue. As you know I am coding TacDB 2.0, and with it's introduction you will have 1 week to perform a test, and 1.5 to do correction. Failure to post report within the deadline will result in the assignment removal and you will be awarded penalty points. (database will do it). I rather want to have 5 active testers than 100 inactive.

"Fill the gap" competition:
     I have sent new competition for approval. It's called "fill the gap". Your objective it to make TIE-TC #43 battle, so we will have only 1 hole in compendium. Competition starts soon, check my profile for more info.

Imperial Assault:
     It seems noone is willing to help, so I will do it myself. I signed up for IA MBs, so I will be watching this project closely.
