Pete Takes Flight After 7
days of hands on work and a lot of frustration, Pete had finally finished
rewiring and piping his TIE Maverick in a neat, orderly fashion. It was time to try it out. Pete closed the right rear engine hatch
where had been working and climbed around to the cockpit with his diagnostic
pad. With a
little hesitation and nervousness, Pete punched in his access code and hit
the start button. The engines and
systems hummed to life immediately and smoothly. He checked through everything on the
diagnostic pad, and everything checked out.
“Phew. Time to get cleaned up.”
Pete said to himself. After a
shower and a meal, Pete came back to his TIE in his flight suit. He jumped in, fired it up, and shot out of
the hangar. He kept his diagnostic pad
connected, went through a few quick maneuvers, and looked at the pad. No issues, yet. He changed all the settings he could from
his gravity compensators to laser power, shields, targeting, climate control,
autopilot, and put it all through its paces.
Still no issues after taking many laps around the Challenge. Pleased, Pete figured it was time for a bit
more testing in closer to combat scenarios.
Back in his
office, Pete called up VA Hav Antiel, Commodore of the Warrior and designer
of his new TIE. “Hav, I finally fixed
all the bugs in your design, I think.” Hav’s hologram looked down to the ground and
to his right. “Good news, Sir. Sorry about that…” “It’s ok,
it was somewhat fun. It is one heck of a ship, though. I thank you for that. It’s time for
combat testing, though. Wrestle up the
wing so there is plenty of security, and let’s do a few exercises.” “Sounds
good, Sir, but we are actually in the middle of Plif’s
Squadron (Re)Mobilization drills. I cannot get away from that now, but you
could join us for testing purposes. It
wouldn’t count for anything, but it would be a good test of your ship’s
limits.” “Sounds
like a plan, Hav! I’ll
be over there tomorrow to get started.
At least send my escort squadron, just in case I need a tow…” “Aye, aye,
Sir!” |

TIE Corps in Battle 2019: July
Assignments: XvT-TC-54: Avengers, Frodo, and a Lost
Mission Compendium BSF’s
are due by midnight GMT on July 31st. Rules: Every month, there
will be a full battle from each of the
major SP platforms (TIE, XvT, XWA) assigned. Pilots will fly each
battle that they choose and BSF the battles to the TC database and forward
the BSF email to Pete Mitchell. If the pilot has earned a high
score, BSF it and also send the pilot file to Pete Mitchell in case the BSF
is not approved in time. Please also forward the BSF confirmation to
Pete Mitchell as well. Each month the pilot
with the highest score in each platform will earn 10 points. The
next highest score will earn 9, the next highest 8, then 7, then 6 and so
on. All submissions will earn at least
5 points. Any mission high scores, will earn 1 bonus point, and
any battle high scores will earn 2 bonus points. High scores are determined at the time the
BSF was submitted. If a high score is
beat by another pilot in the same competition that submitted after, both
pilots will receive the bonus points.
If a pilot submits a BSF that would have been a high score, but was
beat by another pilot that submitted before, no bonus points will be awarded
to the second submission. Points will
accumulate for the year for more awards.
Participation points
will also be tallied by ship and squadron.
One point per battle flown.
Flying participants of top participating ships and squadrons will earn
extra rewards. Awards: Annual: IS-PW/GW/SW for 1st 2nd and
