Major Philo reporting in for Yod Squadron 10.27.02

Fluff:

Book of the Week: "Telsa: Man Out of Time" by Margaret Cheney. A biography of the scientist Nikola Tesla, inventor of the alternating current generator and hundreds of others useful things. Especially interesting is the feud between him and Edison.

Fleet News:

Still no "all clear" to use the Emperor’s Hammer site yet. Stay tuned.

This week’s position shuffle:

· COL Mairin Astoris is the new COM of the Challenge. WC to be named later.
· MAJ Aeishline Strathaven is the new WC of Wing III.
· MAJ Autoris is the new WC of Wing XI

XWA Week of War is this week on the Zone.

Ship News:

Sovereign Battles of the Month: TIE-TC 185, XvT-TC 17, XWA-TC 9. Due 31 October, IS-GW through IS-BW available for each battle.

Deathmask Units Comp results should be available soon, I hope.

Wing News:

CM Dedmeat is the new Kaph CMDR, and Cheth will be temporarily closed. Hopefully we can get the numbers back up soon.
The Wing X comp is on! TIE-FREE 161, due 10 November. Tactical tip: the Bonus goals are: destroying the MISs (5000), destroying the T/A’s (5000), and destroying all but one of CARG group Erog (5000). Penalty points if the satellites are destroyed.
