SIN SQUADRON  REPORT N°1 - 30/SEPT/2018

SIN CMDR: COL Earnim Branet
REPORT DATE: 30 September 2018
COMMENTARIES
Greetings.
This is my first report as CMDR of Sin Squadron. First of all, we appreciate the excellent service that LT Kiba did as our previous CMDR and we hope that in his current situation he can collaborate within his possibilities to continue maintaining active Sin. This is what we expect from all our pilots.

With my promotion, the FL position of Flight Three has become vacant. Any member of the Tie Corps who is interested in this position will be very welcome. Just send your request to my e-mail ehbranet@yahoo.com with a copy to RA Hav Antiel (havantiel@gmail.com), and AD Plif (plif346@gmail.com) indicating your interest.

Within the delivery of the results of the MSE of August we highlight the medal Palpatine Crescent of our FL, CPT Rando. We quote the words of RA Hav Antiel: "During August, CPT Rando flew 18 SP missions with 3 new mission high scores.His continued participation (and dominance) in multiple Corps-wide flying competitions earned him 12 Iron Stars (and, of course, serious bragging rights.) To recognize CPT Rando's high levels of activity, I recommend that I receive the Palpatine Crescent". We are absolutely agree with this comment. Just look at your Flight Record https://tc.emperorshammer.org/record.php?pin=55656&type=flightrec and we can see that Sin has one of the best EH pilots. (Now I'm bragging, but when you're right you can do it without any problem).

Also, and in my particular case, the rumor has spread that I sleep with my pilot's uniform on. That is not exactly so, since my sleeping pajamas have the colors of the TIE pilot uniform, as it is easier to wash, and also better conceals the beer stains that "occasionally" fall on top of it, I do not know why , when I sleep. Things that happen inside the Warrior.

SQUADRON AND EH NEWS
- Sin Squadron Change of Command. COL Earnim Branet has stepped up to take over as CMDR of Sin Squadron and has now been officially appointed to the position.
- New Alpha Commander Selected. Commander Alejandro Araujo has been selected as the new Alpha Squadron Commander. Congratulations and be successful in your new role!.
- "New" XWA Patches. Thanks to the efforts of COL Impulse, the old 16-bit installer for the XWA patches has been reworked to work under 64-but systems. As a direct result, all old XWA patches can now again be installed. Most of these were covered in the XWA Craft Packs, but not all. This has now been corrected.
- Trivia Grand Tour: Season Two, Week Seven has finished and Week Eight now start. Go to http://tc.emperorshammer.org/timetest.php?testid=327929.

COMPETITIONS

I will summarize competitions that apply to Sin in this section, but you should always check the Competitions Center and Combat Center for full details on all competitions.

  • Project 659
    Each month, fly the SP battles indicated in the Sin Weekly Squadron Report and earn bonus points for high scores and fastest submissions.

  • Commodore's Library
    Each month in the commodores report their will be a new theme listed. Write at least a paragraph about the theme to participate. Winner will get the title of Commodore's Librarian and will choose the next theme for the report.

  • Top Muse
    Each week submit your idea to AD Pete Mitchell for participation.

  • Wing II Commander's Escort Flight / Warrior Commodore's Escort Flight
    These are MP and SP versions of the same comp: fly enough missions to rank among the top four on the Warrior for the month to earn points. Iron Stars are awarded to the top four every month with a quarterly bonus. For the Commodore's Escort Flight, LoCs and LoSs are summed for the total.

  • TIE Corps on Patrol
    For 2018, TCoP is moving to every other week. VA Pete Mitchell is taking the TCoP helm this year, so please note that BSF emails/pilot files will be due by 5 pm Pacific/8 pm Eastern/1 am London one every other Monday starting January 15.

  • TIE Corps Pilot League
    Like TCoP, the Pilot League is a single-player comp taking place every other week. The difference here is that pilots have a rolling handicap. Each round, the pilot with the highest handicap score (expressed as a percentage 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.

  • TIE Corps on Recon
    Submit a screenshot each week from one of Star Conflict's multiplayer game modes (Domination, Beacon Hunt, PvE, Team Battle, and Combat Recon). Iron Stars are awarded weekly and monthly based on unique criteria for each game mode.


  • TIE Corps vs AI
    Submit a screenshot each week from Star Conflict's Player vs. AI modes. Iron Stars are awarded weekly and monthly based on unique criteria for each game mode.


  • Wing II Commander's Escort Flight / Warrior Commodore's Escort Flight
    These are MP and SP versions of the same comp: fly enough missions to rank among the top four on the Warrior for the month to earn points. Iron Stars are awarded to the top four every month with a quarterly bonus. For the Commodore's Escort Flight, LoCs and LoSs are summed for the total.

 

PROJECT 659
The Project 659 competition continues! The pilots of Sin have all the month of October to complete these battles for the platforms TIE Fighter, X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter, and X-Wing Alliance.

Every battle BSF earns you one point; the first pilot to submit the BSF for each assigned battle earns a bonus point, and additional bonus points are awarded for ≥80% of the existing high score and a further bonus point if you beat the high score. The points will be tracked and an IS-BW medal awarded for every 5 points and an IS-SW medal for every 20 points.

OCTOBER ASSIGNMENTS
PLATFORM BATTLE BSFs Needed
TIE Fighter Tie-TC 233 2
X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter XvT-TC 24 2
X-Wing Alliance XWA-TC 1 2

How were these battles selected? The following criteria were used:
  1. Fewest number of BSFs needed to earn a Squadron Citation
  2. Highest average rating in the Battle Center
  3. Fewest bugs

Before this competition we had 0 citations. Now we have the following:

Another week (And another month) are ending. Now the MSE is coming for September and I am completely sure that our pilots will be rewarded for their effort. Also our internal competition, the project 659 starts running from 01/October/2018, having the whole month to complete the new assignments. Let's complete the battles, and increase the citations (And the honor) of our squad.
