• February MSE awards
• Imperial Storm update: Victory at Scarus, Battle of Ultima
• Open leadership roles
• Recent Warrior competition awards

Resulting from the February evaluation process, congratulations to the following Warriors that earned merit medals:

• MAJ Keth Aalith was awarded his eighth Imperial Security Medal
• LC Hav Antiel was awarded his sixth Imperial Security Medal
• GN Dunta Polo was awarded his seventeenth Imperial Security Medal
• CM Rando was awarded his fifth Bronze Star of the Empire
• LC Earnim Branet was awarded his fourth Silver Star of the Empire
• Your fearless leader was awarded his eighth Silver Star of the Empire

In Imperial Storm, CM Rando and GN Pickled Yoda once again topped the scores from the Warrior and beat the average from the TCCS. Well done! As a result, we've taken Scarus from them and we now hold a majority of the territory on the map. That's a strong position to be in, especially with only one third of the exercise completed. Two turns later, we're in battle again on the other side of the map, this time against the ISDII Hammer itself. Mission assignment hasn't been announced yet, but it'll be in TIE Fighter this time!

Kappa Squadron is eagerly awaiting a new KMDR to take lead them, or at least be their scapegoat when they misbehave! The SOO and I have talked about relaxing some of the usual expectations, particularly reporting since we know a lot of folks have RL concerns that would keep them from reporting weekly, for example. If you're interested in taking on the role but held back on applying because of all the work it requires, let me know because we might be able to work something out. Over in Theta we've got an FL position open for anyone interested in having an opportunity to earn all the ranks up to COL and be a major part of the squadron that's been the TCCOM's Own Escort Squadron for four years running.

Since last time, the following brave and talented Warriors have earned competition medals:

• Your fearless leader was awarded an IS-BW for taking second place in TCAI Week 10
• GN Pickled Yoda was awarded two IS-SRs for winning Weeks Five and Six of the Trivia Grand Tour
• COL Mark Schueler was awarded an IS-BR for taking second place in Week Five of the Trivia Grand Tour
• COL Mark Schueler was awarded an IS-SW for winning the TIE section of TCPL Round 5
• LC Earnim Branet was awarded three IS-BWs for TCPL, having taken third place in February and March and then second place for the XvT section in Round 5
• LC Earnim Branet was awarded an IS-BW for reaching 10 activity points in TCAI
• LC Earnim Branet was awarded an IS-BW for reaching 10 activity points in TCoR
• CM Rando was awarded an IS-BW, the first award from Sin Squadron's Project 659
• CM Rando was awarded two IS-BWs for taking second place in TCPL Round 5 both overall and for the XWA section
• CM Rando was awarded four IS-SWs for sweeping TCoP Round 5
• CM Rando was awarded an IS-SW for taking second place in TCPL for March
