Anytime VA Pete Mitchell had a spare moment in the past day, his mind wandered… “Why is Pell having a meeting with the Grand Admiral on such short notice?  He normally only had quarterly meetings with Rapier, and once in a while Rapier would show up for a surprise inspection of the fleet, but Pell never went to Rapier like this…  Oh well, back to the task at hand…”

 

Pete pondered how best to transport Pell to the SSSD Sovereign.  It wasn’t too far away, but the fastest route wasn’t through territory that the Emperor’s Hammer had the tightest grip on.  Pirate, and even Rebel attacks were not unheard of.  There was the long way around, but this sounded urgent.  Pete hit the button for his intercom to his assistant, “Captain, please radio Admiral Plif and his squadron commanders.  Have them meet me in my office ASAP.”  CPT Cal Sinis was very efficient; he knew they would be here quickly.  Pete chimed in to CPT Sinis again, “Also, please cancel the Chalquila and the entertainers tonight.  Well, take the delivery of the Chalquila, but please reschedule the entertainment and make sure I am not interrupted.”

 

As expected, three hours later, there was a knock on his office door.  “Come in.  It’s open.”

 

CM Aldaric opened the door and COL Mark Schueler entered followed by LC Hav Antiel, AD Plif, and finally CM Aldaric. 

 

“Gentlemen, welcome, and thank you for making it over quickly on such short notice.  FA Pellaeon is going to depart to the Sovereign tomorrow and meet with the Grand Admiral.”

 

“Why is he having an unscheduled meeting with Rapier?” asked Aldaric.

 

“Commander, please don’t ask questions you know I can’t answer.  Now, Theta will carry the Fleet Admiral to his destination and escort him.  Kappa should be the forward guard and travel the route half an hour ahead to make sure everything is clear.  Sin will stand by on Ready Five in case anything happens.  That is, as long as it is ok with you, Plif.  Sorry, I’m reverting back to old days, when I commanded the Flagship.”

 

“It’s ok.”  Responded Plif. “That’s basically what I would have done anyway.  We will make sure the TCCOM gets to the Sov quickly and safely.” 

 

“Thank you Admiral, that’s all I need to hear.  Good luck and dismissed.”

 

The Warrior leaders then about faced and left.  Once the door closed, VA Mitchell couldn’t help but say, “I have a bad feeling about this.”  He, however, could not place his dread and whether it was the reason for Pell’s meeting, or the journey to it that bothered him…

 

 

Welcome to this pre-report.  It’s a bit early to get that piece of fiction out there before Pell’s next piece.  Obviously, it’s not quite the deadline for TCPL yet, but fear not, I will submit another version of the report tomorrow to cover that. 

 

In Imperial Storm, we have another 3 way battle, which will be the last of Imperial Storm!  The battle is for control of Vultur.  First, the TCCS will square off against the Warrior.  Then the Hammer will face the winner.  Winner takes all!  (Not really, I’m pretty sure the Warrior has won RtF either way…)

 

All medals from April’s MSE’s have now been awarded and I now have a new shiny Silver Star!  Also the Commendations of Loyalty have made it in!

 

Finally, RtF is only a few days away, so you should be ready by now!

http://tc.emperorshammer.org/images/tccslinkbanners/soo.pnghttp://tc.emperorshammer.org/images/tccslinkbanners/soo.pngSOO Competitions

TIE Corps on Patrol 2018:

Round 11 Assignments:

TIE-Free 278: Report Retrieval

XvT-Free 205: Fallen Heroes

XWA-Free 130: Razor’s Kiss

 

BSF emails/pilot files will be due by 5 pm Pacific/8 pm Eastern/1 am London on Monday June 4.

 

Rules:

It’s a new year, so this will change a little.  Every TWO weeks, there will be a free mission from each of the major SP platforms (TIE, XvT, XWA) assigned.  Pilots will fly each mission that they choose and BSF the battles to the TC database and forward the BSF email to Pete Mitchell.  If the pilot has earned a high score, BSF it and also send the pilot file to Pete Mitchell in case the BSF is not approved in time. 

 

Each week the pilot with the highest score in each platform will earn 4 points.  The next highest score will earn 3, the next highest 2, and all other submissions will earn 1.  If the winning pilot in a platform also earned a high score, that pilot will earn 5 points for that platform.  Points will accumulate for the week, month, and year for more awards.

 

Awards:

Annual:

IS-PW/GW/SW for 1st 2nd and 3rd total points for the year.  (at least 5 participants)

IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd and 3rd total points for the year in each platform (at least 4 participants)

 

Monthly:

IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd and 3rd total points for the month (at least 3 participants).

 

Weekly:

IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd total points for the week (at least 3 participants).

IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd in each platform (at least 2 participants).

 

 

TIE Corps Pilot League 2018:

Round 10 Assignments:

TIE-Free 33: Katarn #1 – Current HS: 57,720

XvT-Free 12: The Collision – Current HS: 54,410

XWA-Free 19: Attack at Abaddon – Current HS: 19,385

 

Rules:

This competition is similar to TIE Corps on patrol, but it is handicapped to make it accessible to more pilots.  Every TWO weeks, there will be a free mission from each of the major SP platforms (TIE, XvT, XWA) assigned.  Pilots will fly each mission that they choose and BSF the battles to the TC database and forward the BSF email to Pete Mitchell.  If the pilot has earned a high score, BSF it and also send the pilot file to Pete Mitchell in case the BSF is not approved in time. 

 

BSF emails/pilot files will be due by 5 pm Pacific/8 pm Eastern/1 am London on May 28.   

 

Each week the pilot with the highest handicap score (expressed as a % of the high score) in each platform will earn 4 points.  The next highest score will earn 3, the next highest 2, and all other submissions will earn 1.  If the winning pilot in a platform also beat the high score (without the handicap added), that pilot will earn 5 points for that platform.  It is possible for a pilot to be the only pilot to beat the high score, and not win that platform.  If for example, pilot A got 90% of the high score and has a 25% handicap for a total of 115%, and pilot B got 105% of the existing HS (and earned a new HS) with a handicap of 5% for a total of 110%, Pilot A would win the platform for the week for 4 points and pilot 3 would only earn 3 points. Points will accumulate for the week, month, and year for more awards.

 

Handicaps will be calculated as follows:

The average score in the platform as a percent of the high scores will be calculated as an average of all scores on that platform since the beginning of the League (avg).  The handicap will be calculated as the difference between the average and 100%.  For example, if a pilot’s average score in TIE is 75% of the HS, his handicap will be 100%-75%=25%.  If a pilot then scored 85,000 pts on a mission with an existing HS of 100,000 points, his handicap score would be 85% + 25% = 110%.

 

*The first round any pilot flies in any platform will not have a handicap added as the pilot will not have an average.  Therefore, the first round, there are no handicaps, only scratch scores. 

 

**I reserve the right to create a maximum handicap.  At this point, it is 75%. 

 

Awards:

Annual:

IS-PW/GW/SW for 1st 2nd and 3rd total points for the year.  (at least 5 participants)

IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd and 3rd total points for the year in each platform (at least 4 participants)

IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd and 3rd most improved averages over the year in each platform (at least 4 participants, must have flown at least 10 missions)

 

Monthly:

IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st 2nd and 3rd total points for the month (at least 3 participants).

 

Weekly:

IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd total points for the week (at least 3 participants).

IS-SW/BW for 1st and 2nd in each platform (at least 2 participants).
