TYPHOON SQUADRON REPORT #15

Date: 01 March 2026
From: COL Jagged Fell III
To: AD Locke Setzer
CC: TIE Corps

COMMANDER’S QUARTERS

Jagged’s desk was covered in datapads filled with training package after training package, all marked as TFTC v1.4. It had been a strenuous month of work to adapt to the new simulator software but Jagged thinks the packages are ready to go. Now just to get the Tactical Office to test them before their deployment to the Fleet.

SQUADRON NEWS

Again, we celebrate our very own Major Prost Varsis for achieving 24 years in the Emperor’s Hammer. And we celebrate Commander Marlore Julren for achieving 2 years in the Emperor’s Hammer too. Congratulations to both of you.

I want to highlight, again, that TIE Corps in Battle has started back up and I would love for us to do well at it again this year. If you can fly the missions without cheats, then please do so, but if not please just fly them any way you need to, but fly them. Last year we placed 3rd mostly based on our general participation and I think we could do even better this year on that front. We are currently sitting in 3rd after the first round, but are only 12 points back from 2nd.

We also had a new battle and a new Free missions released this month.

COMPETITIONS

And now for the current competitions available to you all as members of Typhoon Squadron. Remember this is just as of today and you should always check the Competition Center for any new competitions too.

Single Player

  • SP Ace of the TIE Corps 2026 - Season One
    • End Date – 2026/04/30
    • Synopsis – Simple, fly Single Player missions from the Database and submit a BSF with the pilot file to the website. Different games have a different point value to them but fly the platforms you like. Missions can only be flown once per year for credit.
  • TIE Corps in Battle Season Nine
    • End Date – 2026/05/15
    • Synopsis – One battle each from TIE, XvT, XWA and TFTC will be assigned monthly. Pilots will fly the battles and submit their pilot files through the database normally. You will get points based on how high your scores are compared to the others submitting to the competition too. And bonus points if you manage to set any High Scores for the missions or battles, even if they are later surpassed. But even if you can't shoot for high scores I encourage everyone who owns the Single Player games to fly them, even with full cheats enabled, as you will at least get 2 points per battle you fly and that will go towards the squadron leader board and we may place as squadron high enough to earn a medal.
  • Brush Up On the Original Games: X-Wing and TIE Fighter
    • End Date – 2026/03/31
    • Synopsis – We have added the original, Totally Games/LucasArts made, campaigns for X-Wing and TIE Fighter to the database. Get out there and fly the foundational games for our organization. Awards to those who fly the most. Please remember to restore your TIE Fighter mission files from a backup copy as our EH missions overwrite the first 1-3 battles. Also, please remember to NOT use an old pilot file, only submit files that you have flown during the competition.

Multi-Player

  • PvE Ace of the TIE Corps 2026 - Season One
    • End Date – 2026/04/30
    • Synopsis – Simple, play any approved primary TIE Corps PvE game and submit the winning screenshots to the website. Different games have a different point value to them but fly the platforms you like.
  • PvP Ace of the TIE Corps 2026 - Season One
    • End Date – 2026/04/30

Maston Dane will make a voting document with times listed for that month and everyone marks each day and time that also works for them. After a few days of voting the day with the most people available is chosen and come the day we all meet up on discord coms and each of us on our own screens start at the same time. IAR for every 2 months of joining in on the watch party for at least a minimum amount of time.

    • Synopsis – Make a social media post praising, promoting, or simply discussing the Emperor's Hammer. Points are awarded for Emoji reactions and comments. See competition post for full details.

HOW TO ADVANCE

I won't repeat all of what I said in the first report here (go see the First Report for the detailed MSE breakdown) but will remind you all that for a month to count towards a promotion a Merit Medal (medal awarded from MSE points) must be earned. Also, want to highlight that to advance beyond Lieutenant you must pass the TIE Corps Core exam.

STANDING ORDERS

Hey...Do Stuff...
As always, the requirements of Active Duty in the TIE Corps are communicating at least once per month, whether that is talking in a Discord channel or sending me a Direct Message on Discord or an email. And then it is important to post some MSE activity at least once every other month, but preferably every month.

COMMANDER'S COCKPIT

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to support you all here in any way.
