Intro & News

We have a few days before ReMob begins. While it is a quiet time for most, I've been running preparations. Namely seeking to plan our availability for team operations, and a number of classified activities (hey, we're SpecOps, most of our stuff is classified eitherway so...). I want us to reach the proposed goals as fast as possible so we can relax a bit afterwards. Remember to save some spare time for this month. Again why we do this? because we have an opportunity to do what most people would like to do: write our names in history.

From the office of our TCCOM:
The channel previously set aside for Maston's Collectible Cavalcade has been renamed ⁠collectibles-etc and moved to the Off Topic category. Also, ⁠deals has returned to the Off Topic category.

Being gamers, there are naturally some games that come out that we’d like to play together even if they’re not in any way related to our theme, roleplay, etc. It seems like it’d make more sense for the EH to do some matchmaking rather than ignore the game entirely, so we’ll try that out. Our first wave of games that we’ll coordinate as opposed to supporting are Diablo IV, GTA Online, and Warframe. All three of these games are rated M for Mature. We’re not chaning our PG-13 standard in our communication channels, so don’t bring any M-rated content from those games here to the Discord server. No streaming or screenshots, please. To opt-in to the channels I’ve created for those games, see the newest post in ⁠💡role-assignments💡.

From the desk of our IO:
"**Site updates for fiction and comments**

We did a soft launch of support for member **fiction uploads** last week. After a few helpful observations by initial users, we’ve made some additional changes to make it easier and more consistent to use.

- Initial support for member fiction uploads:
- Members can self-upload fiction items using either file upload (PDF or plain text) or text-entry options. Fiction items may be made public or restricted to viewing by EH members only. Fiction items may also be associated with a competition, or up to three EH units.
- The new Fiction Center allows you to view and search for member fiction.
- At a later date, fiction items related to unit(s) will be available from the unit's roster page after approval by the respective unit commander.

- When uploading fiction as text, the content is now processed to display paragraphs in a standardized format (consistent spacing and first line indent) regardless of the type or number of line breaks used. This should make pasting content from another application significantly easier.

- There is now a preview option when preparing fiction submissions (if you're using the 'text entry' upload source).

- Removed the authentication requirement for viewing the Fiction Center, which was not intended. (Individual fiction items may still be marked members-only by their creator.)

- The site now supports a small avatar image (PNG, 128x128) for your character. It is displayed on your profile, and certain places you interact with comment (for example: posting comments). Multi-character members are able to set an avatar for each. Avatars can be set under the "Edit profile and preferences" management menu option under the new "Character Profile" tab.

- The site now supports posting comments in response to officer reports. Authors of reports will receive a notification when you post to their item. (As an aside, we built out the comments functionality as a generic component that we can plug into multiple site areas, so except this to pop up on some other sections in the near future.) A new notification type preference was added to receive notifications when comments are submitted for items you created. By default for new users and users without explicit preferences this will be delivered by daily digest. Users with existing notification preferences who which to receive this notification type by email should set it in the Notification Preferences section.

As always, additional details are available in the site CHANGELOG at https://tc.emperorshammer.org/changelog.php."

visit "⁠Custom Helmet Tutorial via TTT3" on Discord (Guide created by @RA “Stitches” TheBlackxRanger )
Weekend Sparrings: Every weekend, you can log in Discord and meet your fellow squad mates forsome good PvP practice on 1v1 /2v2 matches. I will be there on friday nights -4 UTC (EST) and most likely during Saturday and Sunday nights since 21:00.
Wiki update: in progress I've been working a lot on the information on our wiki site. It is still a WIP but at least we got the structure of the article after a research on RL SpecOps articles and air force squadrons. Proceeding to fill it. I really suggest you guys fill up your INPRs and wiki articles if you haven't done so. If you do not have wiki access send me the information while we manage to get you a working account if posssible. Updated our roster and revised the squadron wiki and added a page for Operation: Slumber Party. I am considering using the Wiki to post information that I repeatedly post here.
WSR format So I know the text on the evaluation is borked. I'm no html expert and I've been using "Pre" instead of just "p" ahh... there has been discussions on WSRs, updating them , their frequency, format. Been considering dumping the information that is being repeated on a wiki page and just give you eval and news. Rosters? you get rosters when you see evl...see what I mean?

(Fractalsponge's take on the MIS - go check his site at www.fractalsponge.net)

Competitions

As of now, Operation: Slumber Party is in effect. Our first target is Beta Squadron. 8 days left to fly against Beta!

We will keep running weekly sparring sessions to practice 1v1 and 2v2 tactics. We'll need those skills and they take time, discipline and consistency to develop. They are our kung fu so to speak

Squadron (Re)Mobilization will come soon so get ready to invest some quality time flying for the glory of the Empire, Pingland and Lagtartida!

Current competitions can be found here. On that table you'll see which units it involves. When it says "TIE Corps" or Battlegroup I" they do involve us and you can participate. Click on each one to see the details. Needless to say, when it says Alpha Squadron, it means it involve us.

Highlighted Competitions:

Well Alpha's Slumber Party (yes, click here) :v

Description:

Every month, pilots from Alpha squadron will fly PvP matches against pilots of a designated squadron of the TIE Corps. Alpha will fly against every single other unit of the TC, one squadron per month. Performance metrics will determine the winning pilots and the winning squadron. The objective isn’t much to spam LoCs but to create unit cohesion, build unit morale and motivation and obtain field experience against real opponents. Get the ball rolling in terms of training towards participating in other online events.

About the campaign project:

As you might know, we'll be flying cooperative missions hopefully for TFTC but if that doesnt work, we'll go for XWAU or BoP as plans "B" and "C". With the OPT_Limit hook desynching connections, chances are we'll have to revert to base XWAU and for that I might be just trying to follow a EaW gameplay to draw inspiration for the battles as we figure out how it works before we move forward

Depending on the outcome of each mission (we might win or lose them) the next missions might change their context.

As special forces we might have the benefit of mission rehearsals, meaning we can fly the mission 2 times under what we believe would be the "real" scenario according to whatever data Intelligence can provide (which may or may not vary).

However, for the mission to be fully successful after rehearsals, we'll have to achieve a bigger score on the "real" deal. And we'll have just 3 waves on rehearsals. Fail there and you won't qualify for the mission. On the "real" deal you'll have just 1 wave. If 50% or more doesnt qualify, mission fails and story will change. If we are successful on the rehearsals but fail on the real mission, we'll fail eitherway and depending on how we fail, story will change.

Update 08-10: TFTC #1 is done, working on TFTC-2, still havent submitted the pertinent IUs

Update 12-05: Submitted all pertinent IUs (Now I can submit missions in all classic platforms plus TFTC). Got a couple ideas for XW and BoP (could be worked for TFTC but I want to begin with XW and make the most out of it).

Update 13-05: I got a draft which I am working as I write this ongoing fiction
Auxiliary Platforms

As the EHTC adopts the concept of secondary games, we expand further on it and propose a list for us all to have fun with other squad mates. I'll eventually dump this list into a wiki page and update it as we see fit.

I am considering moving this into a Wiki article and link you there.

I'll never cease to promote his work which can be downloaded here on the latest version that I'm aware of. He did what I originally wanted to do for XWA. I'll work on my own campaign inspired by his work. Let's support him penguins, he is one of us!

Basically anything else you suggest can be added to this list of games for fun that might eventually be the subject of competitions but our focus remains on the primary platforms.

Star Wars Book List:

As the site says "This is a simple list of all of the full-length Star Wars novels to date, in chronological order of when the stories take place, with the movies and TV shows also added for context. This list does not include most young readers' books or short novellas, or TV shows aimed at young children. Books whose stories overlap within the same timeline are listed in recommended reading order based on my own judgement. Release dates are for the US - dates and availability may vary in other countries". You can check this most useful list here: https://www.yodasdatapad.com/booklist.html. Bookmark it! I already did!!!

Monthly General Orders

Schedule Planning:

Plan ahead of time for next month and make room for all the fun we'll have flying and fighting on ReMob.

GoG XW Series

The classic Star Wars games (TIE Fighter, XvT, XWA, etc.) are available for digital sale at https://www.gog.com/ and http://steampowered.com/. The GOG version is generally preferred by most members for ease of patching with custom EH game content.

TCCORE

This basic IU course will help you familiarize with EHTC's procedures. I highly recommend you take it in case you haven't.

Update uniform, INPR and wiki character article!:

This goes for me as well. Each time you get promoted or receive an award you should update your uniform.

Commander's Analysis

I have to admit administrative and logistics work could be not so appealing but they're necessary for the sucess of the unit so I've been working on these aspects prior to ReMob. Scheduling is indeed hard but then again any aspects of leadership are challenges and a responsibility to the pilots of this unit and the TC.

I'm witholding the fiction for this week just to resume by rolling back to a prior story I was working on. I'd like to develop it during ReMob

Closing

Be well rested during the remaining 8 days my penguins. Dismissed!
