ISD WARRIOR WEEKLY REPORT #23

REPORTING OFFICER: Rear Admiral Zekk Terrik
DATE SUBMITTED: June 14 2021
FROM THE DESK OF THE COMMODORE

Welcome folks! I want to start off this report by just reminding you all that I will be in Texas for the next couple weeks, and should be back on June 28th or 29th. You won't see another report until July 5th. During that time I will be on Discord and communicating but won't really be engaged with TIE Corps stuff. Imperial Storm should start sometime soon, and MAJ Robert Hogan of Sin Squadron will be Team Captain. I look forward to seeing you all kick ass!

The other big news today is that we are opening Sigma Squadron ASAP, pretty much as soon as I find someone to run Rho Squadron! Congratulations to MAJ acetiepilot on being selected to run Sigma...I see great things in Sigma's future!

If you are interested in the Rho CMDR position, shoot me an email at zekkterrik@gmail.com.

The MSEs have been completed and most medals have headed our way, with the rest to follow.

It looks like the last Riddles of the Jawa was a tough one. Only CPT Aardvark, CM SkyShadow, and GN Pickled Yoda got everything right.

The answer to the bonus question was: Bastila Shan, Carth Onasi, Jolee Bindo, Zaalbar, HK-47, Juhani, T3-M4, Mission Vao, and Canderous Ordo.

I have attached the newest one and I will let this one run until July 5th. Plenty of time for submissions...bonus question below!

WARRIOR ROSTER
  • The roster currently stands at 47 members as we continue to trim the fat and add some asskicking. We added lots of new members this week! Please welcome: Primellis Exalta to Kappa Squadron (and congratulate him on his promotion to LT!), SL Adalla to Theta Squadron, and Kane Polybius to Sin! Congratulations to SL Badkid312 of Kappa, Kevinbackroom of Rho, and LCM Cray Xerious of Rho on their promotions! Great work guys!

    SHIP NEWS
    • 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.
    • I learned this week that aardvarks are very fast diggers, thanks to a conversation with CPT Aardvark that led to me reading the entire Wikipedia article on aardvarks.
    • Currently accepting applications for Rho CMDR, to be submitted by end of day Friday June 18th.
    SHIP COMPETITIONS

  • Riddles of the Jawa

    Like every Jawa, LT WarperJawa of Sin speaks in riddles and virtually impossible to understand Galactic Basic. As a translation tool, he has provided the Commodore with a series of riddles and puzzles to be included in every ISD Warrior report.

    Unfortunately, the Commodore is far, far too dumb to figure them out and needs the help of the pilots of Wing II to sort them out.

    ---

    Every week, RA Zekk will include a new puzzle designed by LT WarperJawa in the Warrior report. The first pilot of Wing II to return a fully correct puzzle to me will receive 5 points, the second will receive 4 points, and the third will receive 3 points. Every entry after that will receive 1 point. You will also receive 1 point for answering the weekly bonus question correctly, and an IS-CR for every 4 entries regardless of where you placed. These will be determined by the timestamp on the email you send.

    Starting this week, you may also spend one point and receive a hint! You may do this as many times as you want, but you will always receive a minimum of 1 point no matter how many points you spend.

    Naturally, neither myself nor LT WarperJawa will be participating since we have the answers. ;)

    Current Standings for RotJ

    CPT Aardvark - 14 points

    CM SkyShadow - 13 points, earned an IS-SR

    LCM Kazraran - 11 points, earned an IS-SR

    LCM Rachel Drakon - 9 points, earned an IS-CR

    GN Pickled Yoda - 3 points, score reset after earning an IS-GR!

    This week's bonus question: Where did the reprogrammed Revan tell Bastila he was from?

    • FLEET COMPETITIONS

    Here’s some fleet-wide competitions currently going on:

  • TIE Corps In Battle - June Assignments

    • TIE-TC 202: A Wormhole Too Far - Download here!

    XvT-TC 14: Orion Base Crisis - Download here!

    XWA-TC 25: Ticket to Chimaera - Download here!

  • SP Ace of the TIE Corps 2021

    • 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.

  • June COO Objective Scramble: Quad Damage

    • Pilots, There will be a rotating COO Objective each month for a chosen platform and goal. This month is based on teamwork as well as capital ship damage!

    Objective: Form a team of four or five. This is your team for the entire month and pilots cannot be paired with pilots who are already paired in a team. E-mail your team to tc-combat-ops-office@googlegroups.com once made. Submit your post-game winning scoreboard from Star Wars Squadrons in Fleet Battles (PvP Ranked) or Fleet Battles (PvE Unranked) via e-mail at tc-combat-ops-office@googlegroups.com between June 1, 2021 (0:00 GMT) and June 30, 2021 (23:59 GMT). The COO and COOAs will have access to these submissions and place them in an online tally.

    The team that has the most victories at the end of this month will have their members win the IS-GW, second place the IS-SW and third place the IS-BW. If we have a tie between teams, the tie breaker will be decided by the COO team calculating the total capital ship damage done by each team with their submissions, highest number wins.

    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.

  • COO's Star Wars Challenge Episode VII - 2021

    • Pilots,

    Welcome to the 2021 refresh of the COO's Star Wars Challenge.

    At the end of the month the totals will be tallied for each pilot's LoC and LoS scores and totaled into a sum. The top three scoring pilots will receive the respectively monthly reward based on ranking.

    There will also be an ongoing annual ranking so you are encouraged to continue participation.
