Competition Results - Squadron (Re)Mobilization VII - Battlegroup III editionReMob for this year is complete, and another fleet competition is down in the books! I'd like to take this opportunity to highlight a few of our squadrons for their performance in this competition. Congrats to both Scorpion Squadron and Typhoon Squadron on completing 40 or more tiers in this competition, earning their squadrons the title of Completed 75% of their tasks in TIE Corps Exercise: Squadron (Re)Mobilization 7 as well as a MUA and 4 ORAs for all participating members! With 41 tiers completed however, Scorpion Squadron managed to edge out Typhoon and their 40 tiers for being the Battlegroup III squadron with the most completed tiers! It was quite the race to watch from the sidelines, and kudos to pilots in both squadrons for achieving what you did in this competition! Special mention as well to Firebird Squadron for completing 20 tiers, earning each of their participating members 3 ORAs in the process! Thanks again to every pilot who participated in ReMob this year! Our next fleet competition will be Raise the Flag, tentatively scheduled to begin in September of this year. |

Competition Reminder - 2025 Mission Creation CompetitionFriendly reminder that this summer, the Tactical Office is running a mission design competition intended to encourage the creation of new battles. This competition will occur over two phases, with phase one effectively being your ReMob mission design tier! Specifically, Phase 1 (running from now until July 15th) will encourage and award pilots for creating a battle plan for a 4 (or more) mission battle (should sound familiar...). Meanwhile, Phase 2 (July 15th - August 31st) will encourage pilots to take that battle plan and turn it into an actual battle! If you completed a battle plan for ReMob, now is the time to send it in! Make sure you send your battle plan directly to the Tactical Officer, FA Pickled Yoda (pickledyoda@gmail.com) before July 15th in order to qualify. Plan submission may have multiple authors - just make sure authorship is clearly attributed in your submission. You're also welcome to create a new battle plan for this competition if you wish - but either way, it needs to be submitted before the end of Phase 1 on July 15th! Phase 2 will involve actually making a battle for the Emperor's Hammer! Pilots have until August 31, 2025 to submit a completed battle to the Tactical Office (via FA Pickled Yoda) for submission in this competition. Friendly reminder that submitting a battle requires a pilot to have completed the appropriate Imperial University courses - specifically the Mission Creation and Beta Testing Standards course, and then the appropriate course for whatever platform your battle is for (X-Wing Mission Design for X-Wing, TIE Fighter Mission Creation 3 for TIE Fighter, X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter Mission Design 1 for X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter or Balance of Power, or X-Wing Alliance Mission Design for X-Wing Alliance or TIE Fighter Total Conversion) For Phase 1, Iron Stars will be awarded for the top four entries, along with all battle plans being eligible for the rarely-awarded Commendation of Service. For Phase 2, Iron Stars will be awarded for the top five entries. All mission battle plans for Phase 1 and mission submissions for Phase 2 should be sent directly to the Tactical Officer, FA Pickled Yoda (pickledyoda@gmail.com) in order to qualify. Phase 1 will run until July 15th. Phase 2 will run until August 31st. For more information, please review the competition listing. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! |

Competition Reminder - Star Wars Hunters Finale - Season 6 RankedTragically, Star Wars: Hunters will soon shut down its servers on October 1, 2025. As such, this current season will serve as the game's last and its finale. Nevertheless, the TIE Corps will continue to support this platform until its closure. As such, once again, a competition will be held to reward pilots for their final season rank. Just like before, the following awards will be granted to pilots who obtain the listed rank in-game:
To qualify, make sure you submit a screenshot to LCM GamerRat at 128190@learn.conejousd.net showing your end of season placement and leaderboard (if applicable). I'll send a reminder out about this one as we approach the end of the season (October 1, 2025), but this is a good one to have on your radar if you're playing Hunters. For more information, please view the competition listing. |

Competition Reminder - SWTOR Conquest 2: The Search for More Conquest, Season 7A new season of SWTOR Conquest 2: The Search for More Conquest is in progress! As a quick reminder, this competition is all about SWTOR players earning conquest points while being a member of one of the Emperor's Hammers guilds! The official guilds are on the Star Forge server ("Emperor's Hammer" for the Sith Empire and "Infiltrator Wing" for the Republic). Each week, the top three pilots in each faction that earn the most conquest points are awarded Iron Stars and "placement points", with placement points being used to determine monthly awards, as well as final standings for season awards and the title of Legacy Conquest Champion! Additionally, an ORA is given (up to two, one for each guild) for every pilot that earns over 100,000 conquest points. This season runs from now through August 26, 2025. If you're a SWTOR player, I recommend reviewing the competition details for more information! Please reach out if you have any questions! |
