Rear Admiral Frodo March reporting
for the Emperor's Hammer Tactical Office on 01/14/05, report #168.
Tactical Officer's Opening Statement
Welcome to yet another exciting TAC report!
This week we saw alot of action in the Tactical office, like every week might I
add. I saw alot of stuff that I want the flags especially to take note on
when it comes to BSFs, let me explain something simple:
When the BSF database tells you the pilot
file is corrupt and that a mission hasn't been flown, SEND THE PILOT FILE BACK
TO YOUR PILOT, and make SURE that he did fly the battle again. When I was
a flag/CMDR I'd force my pilots to refly corrupt pilot files, and skipping
missions is NOT permitted. If you flags and your commanders do an extra
effort then I have more time at the end that I can use on other stuff, like our
mission compendium and various projects.
Otherwise, I seem to be receiving more and
more battles and free missions to get through the TAC database! Keep it up, its
like sugar crisp, I can't never get enough.
Tactical Announcements
-Operation Ant-Eater is still in the bug validating phase.
(Testing)
-TAC Database 2.0 is almost complete TACA/COL
Mike and CA:TAC/VA Styles are currently working very hard and made
tons of nifty arrangements on it that will make all our lives easier. For
the time being, testers and tacticians and coordinators, please use the old TAC
DB.
-Welcome MAJ Aft Skylek to the TAC staff as XvT/BoP
TCS-TCT and SWGB TCS!

custom made battles and missions: http://www.ehtiecorps.org/tac/portal/batsubmit.asp
Tactical Projects
-Operation Ant-Eater: This is a lot like Project phoenix, the TAC staff will set out
to destroy all bugs in the Mission Compendium! Phase one is under way, all the
testers are currently finding the valid bugs.
-Frodo's Quest for more Missions!: This
is my own personal quest to get mission creators to create more, I'll do
anything for more assignments...I'd like to remind everybody that they can
still apply for a TMD (Tactical Mission Designer) position to myself and
Styles!
Tasks from the FC
-More missions and faster turnaround in relation
to testing: My quest for more missions is still under way.
-Better attitude/interaction with the
membership regarding the EHBL and in general: Pilots come first! I'm willing to do anything to make your life
easier as long as you are willing to help me help you. Anything TAC
related that you need to discuss will be happily handed by me or my CA.
-Revise/update/fix the Tactical
Manual: My TACA, COL Mike, has completed
the TAC manual, it can be found here: http://www.ehtiecorps.org/tac/tactical_manual/offline/TacticalManual3.0.zip
an online version can be expected really soon.
-More support relating to new
platforms (Jedi outcast academy, SWGB): We have a
few SWGB battles in progress, anybody interested in JA, or JO or SWGB can
contact myself right away. Support is important and we need some competent
staff for these new platforms. Anybody interested in a Mission Creation
course for these platforms can contact me immediately and I'll make sure you
get all the support you need to get me my support.
-Coordinating with training office to
set up new training resources for new platforms: No TO for the moment, I'll get back to you gentlemen with this
I'll talk to Drako about it and perhaps something can be done, these are also
powerful recruitment tools. See above, anybody with intention to make IWATS
contact me immediately.
-Restart Project Pheonix and fix any
bugs in the mission compendium: Operation
"ant-eater" is under way!
-Reform the TAC staff from a corps of
testers to mission creators: We have quite a
few TMDs already, with TAC DB 2.0 it will work. TAC DB 2.0 is very very
very close...Hopefully we can have it by next report *hint hint* ;)
Competitions
-"Mission Creation Incentive": The
pilot who submits the most battles to the TAC office in the month of January
will be awarded an IS-PR, an IS-GR for second place and the same goes for
February and March. You must submit at least 3 battles, and the same goes
with missions, except the award for top missions is IS-GR and you must build at
least 5.
-Pilot of the week competition! It has
been resubmitted. The TAC reports are due on Friday's, I'd appreciate if I had
TCC reports in my inbox on Thursdays guys. The pilot of the week this week
is....TACA COL Marcin Szydlowski! Superior Testing while upgrading TAC DB 2.0!
Standings are: VA Stuart 1 week, COL Mike 1 week.
-Lets sing it!: My TACA will continue to
run this, send the answers to him at pbmike@go2.pl and
CC me at fcjt914@yahoo.ca we have some nice lyrics for you this week:
When a man lies
he murders some part of the world
these are the pale deaths
which men miscall their lives,
all this i cannot bear
to witness any longer
cannot the kingdom of salvation
take me home

Frothy's Corner
Well, mission creation seems to be
up, don't give up though, keep working! There's nothing a mission Creator can
do that's better then make more missions, regardless of what certain people
say. Never quit, never give up, take all critisizm as constructive.
Good Mission Creators never fail,
they only learn to work harder.
