Sin Squadron Report #94 August 16th, 2020
Reporting Commander: Colonel Zekk Terrik

Squadron News & Commentary

Greetings from the desk of the Commander, everyone. Five days out of isolation and I sprained my ankle playing with my kids, so back to the couch for me. Figures.

Regarding the XvT tournament, looks like Sin didn’t fare very well. I got thoroughly handled by LT EvilGrin and Genie lost a close one to Pete Mitchell of Theta. We are still waiting for Coremy to play his match, as he’s the only person still left in the bracket.

You should have all received your shinies if you earned them, and congratulations to our XO Genie on his promotion to Commander! We are now just waiting on a couple months worth of MoCs.

No Adventures of Sin, as I’m sort of out of ideas for the time being. Hopefully I’ll get some more ideas soon. Please keep your eye out, though, for newer versions of The TIE Pilot Podcast, presented by LCM Jack Wynand and myself!

Raise the Flag is going to begin VERY soon, and as soon as I get to see the rules we will begin discussing our plan of attack. I intend to make our victory extra humiliating for the other two ships this year.

With MSEs coming soon, I just wanted to make a couple Sinners aware that some of you are due for transfer to the Reserves soon if I don’t see a bit of activity. You likely know who you are. Please don’t make do it. :(

Sin Trivia can be found here: https://tc.emperorshammer.org/timetest.php?testid=845281 This begins Monday. The current trivia, which is still running until Sunday night, can be found here: https://tc.emperorshammer.org/timetest.php?testid=9411010

Sin On Patrol will be TIE Free 80. TIE Golf will be TIE Free 81. This will be due the same date. The current missions still have one day to be submitted. If you don’t know what they are...then...read the damn reports! This will be due August 23rd at 11:59 PM.

We continue to see a large influx of recruits and seeing our numbers swell, please make sure you greet them in Discord and Telegram!

Colonel Horus Blackheart has been hosting a PVP shootout, every Saturday at 3 PM PST, with more to come. You may find the details here: https://tc.emperorshammer.org/combat.php?id=156 It looked quite busy today!

Competitions

Here are the following competitions that Sin is participating in, whether squadron-only or part of the whole TIE Corps. As always I encourage you to visit the Competition Center (https://tc.emperorshammer.org/competitions.php?id=current ) to brush up on what’s going on in the TC as a whole. Keep an eye out for the Command Staff’s reports as they contain important information and competitions.
Sin Squadron Trivia - https://tc.emperorshammer.org/competitions.php?id=3092 This will end every Sunday night. I have changed the rules slightly...beginning this week, you will be awarded an IS-SR for every FIFTH victory. Everyone’s victories are reset to zero.

Sin Squadron On Patrol - https://tc.emperorshammer.org/competitions.php?id=3091 The bi-weekly free mission where you can earn an IS-BW for the top score every two weeks!

The Adventures of Sin Squadron – Submit anything, and I mean quite literally anything (minimum half a page because John was mean about it), to your CMDR for inclusion in the squadron report and receive a brand new shiny IS-BR! Receive an IS-SR for every 5 submissions! Ask me how (just email it, dummy). Graphics are also acceptable, or really just any creativity!

Sin Top Gun - https://tc.emperorshammer.org/competitions.php?id=3121 Who is the finest (and most active?) pilot in all of Sin?

TIE Golf – https://tc.emperorshammer.org/competitions.php?id=3123 Do you suck at flying too? Finally, a mission I can compete in! That’s right – you will compete for the worst possible score!

Closing Comments
As I said before, we will begin discussing the rules of RtF as soon as I see them, and we’ll treat it a lot like we did the Remobilization competition. Remember that we were getting our butts kicked at the beginning of Remob, and we still won. I know some of us like to fly, some of us like to earn Legions, some of us are more creative, some of us do IU courses. We’re all good at different things, and if we utilize our strengths, we’ll laugh the Hammer and the Challenge out of the competition.
