SQUADRON NEWS

Welcome to this week’s Squadron Report! This week featured a new mission release by our CM Hawkins, earning him the prestigious Medal of Tactics! Celebrate with your squadmate by flying his mission! I’ve already did it, and recommend it to every Kappa and Fleet member! Also, he welcomes your personal feedback, as well.

The Commodore has announced the COM Protector competition, which is a high-score hunting one, adding one point per mission high score earned. Bonus points are offered for knocking down a Hammer pilot from his/her HS (+1), with an extra point if the HS holder is HA Anahorn Dempsey (+2). The background of the newly raised Commodore rivalry is unknown yet, but will serve as a nice standoff before the Raise the Flag 2015 Edition. The EH HoloNews Media has already signalled its interest in broadcasting the event! Nevertheless, I conducted a quick scan for Hammer pilots on the High Score Board: HA Anahorn Dempsey holds 100 mission high scores, GN Dax Corrin follows her with 50, COL Golbez Harvey has 22, rounding out the top 3 of the Hammer. Tempest, I think this is a golden opportunity for you to shine once again! ;)

Warrior Trivia continued with Week 9, this time with 3 participants from our Squadron.

The TIE Corps on Patrol comp continues, missions for Week 9 have been announced. Don’t forget that the GoG TIE Fighter (Battle 4: Conflict at Mylok IV) and X-Wing (TOD 2: The Great Search) competitions are on. The Tactical Office awaits your scores in these until the end of April. TIE Fighter Battle 3 results are yet to be announced.

Multiplayer activity is once again rising in the Fleet! Hawkins, Sparky and LT Archenksov teamed up for XvT games, while Hawkins and Flelm experimented with XWA MP matches. Follow the TIE Corps mailgroup for event schedules.

The Kappa Race to 40 competition is running, too! Your flying activity will be rewarded not only by FCHG earnings, but reach 16 points for an IS-BW, and be the first to reach 40 points to win the competition and earn an IS-SW until the end of April. CM Hawkins has just jumped into the leading spot with his salvo of recent LoCs and TCoP missions. To your fighters!
