REPORTING OFFICER: Rear Admiral Zekk Terrik
DATE SUBMITTED: May 3 2021

Hello everyone! It looks like we are all caught up on some missed medals and stuff like that - they're sitting in the queue and ready to go. We will ALL be less negligent in the future, under penalty of airlock.

A new Commodore's Address came out yesterday which is a bit more detailed (and for the eyes of Wing II pilots only...I'm pretty sure Wing X has Rebel spies), but I do want to touch on a couple fast points. With April's MSE is done and looked at by me, Kappa is by far the most improved squadron since I took over. You guys are really kicking ass, keep it up! Lastly, congratulations to LCM SkyShadow of Sin on being awarded the Grand Order of the Emperor for his work on TTT3!

It isn't ready yet, but next week I plan to start including puzzles in every ISD Warrior report, courtesy of LT WarperJawa of Sin who designed them. Thank you for that!

International Star Wars Day is coming up tomorrow, and I believe an awesome giveaway for our games has been put together by CPT Witcher and COL Silwar of...oh who cares, they're not on the Warrior. You can sign up for that giveaway here!

• Make sure you catch episode 7 of The TIE Pilot Podcast at this link, where CM Jack Wynand and I discuss the early history of the EH with SA Maverick. We have migrated ALL episodes of TTPP to the official EH YouTube channel.
• I am proud to welcome COL Doyon to the crew of The TIE Pilot Podcast. We are currently working on episode 8, where we intend to have LT fr0Zen of Rho on to get a new guy's perspective on the EH! We're tired of interviewing these old farts!
• Led by COL Mordechi Wolfe of Sin Squadron, we have progressed to Phase II of Project Sovereign. MAJ Genie and COL Silwar have taken the lead in designing the Imperial Armory.
• TIE Corps in Battle, April assignments are done, and we are waiting on May's now!
• Squadron Remob competition has begun and runs until the end of May-ish. Sin and Theta are already done! Nice job guys!
• TTT3 is live here!

• I have had a couple of people reach out to me about being long-term interested in a CMDR spot. I want to encourage anyone who's interested, even if you've been a CMDR before, to reach out to me so we can begin the process.
• LCM SkyShadow was awarded the Grand Order of the Emperor!

Every Single Player mission flown earns the pilot a point on the Kill Board and the top three pilots at the end of the month earn medals. Yearly, the top four pilots earn medals.

Each mission only counts once for the year, but missions flown in previous years can be reflown for points on the Kill Board (but not additional FCHG points). The Kill Board statistics on the TIE Corps website are final. IS-GW/SW/BW for top 3 monthly, at the end of the year the top 4 pilots win IS-PW/GW/SW/BW. The top pilot at the end of the year also receives the title of SP Ace of the TIE Corps 2021.

Pilots, There will be a rotating COO Objective each month for a chosen platform and goal. This month is based upon flying together.

Objective:

Competition 3285, the May COO Objective Scramble - May The Force Be With You is up Pick another pilot to pair with and fly together. This is your pair for the entire month and pilots cannot be paired with pilots who are already paired in a set of 2. E-mail your pair to tc-combat-ops-office@googlegroups.com once made. As a set, submit 1 winning scoreboard screenshot from Dogfight, Fleet Battles (Ranked - PvP) or Fleet Battles (Unranked - PvE) post-game via e-mail at tc-combat-ops-office@googlegroups.com between May 1, 2021 (0:00 GMT) and May 31, 2021 (23:59 GMT). The COO and COOAs will have access to these submissions and place them in an online tally. The pair that has the most victories at the end of this month will win the IS-GW, second place the IS-SW and third place the IS-BW.

To encourage further participation, each winning pilot per month will be given a rating of 3 points at maximum, scalable to 2 or 1 if less than 3 pilots participate a month. The top three pilots at the end of the year will attain the annual awards.

Pilots,
