Welcome to the second edition of Gamma Squadron Report!
Things seem to be settling in quite nicely at this early stage of development after the AWOL Check. Both Flight Leaders have been appointed and are already in position, competitions have been resumed, some back logged files have been processed, so I am glad. But there still much work to be done, regarding membership and activity.
For an instance: Mission of the Week. I did not receive a single submission for this week’s assignment, and I did fly it. It’s just one mission a week and you can get a medal for it. Don’t let me fly it alone!
The new Fleet Commander has issued a status report of Emperor’s Hammer: http://www.emperorshammer.org/messageboard/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1883
LC Tempest has been awarded his overdue IS-BR for achieving victory in “Demotivate Me!” Congratulations!
All submissions for the second part of Operation: Razor’s Edge have been processed, but some are still waiting approval by the TAC, so next week we should have the results for that phase. But don’t forget that third phase is on, with TIE-DB 13 as assignment. |

* Operation: Razor’s Edge
Participants: Gamma Squadron – CMDR included, since competition was started by COL Master.
This competition has been started by COL Master. There were already 2 parts for this competition, and a third one is ongoing. The first part consisted of a trivia question regarding the origin of the name of the competition, which was answered right by me, granting me 5 points. Tempest and Impulse got 3 points for their answers. The second part was a flying assignment, which was anything you’d want from the compendium. COL Viper Pred submitted TIE-Free 35, I submitted XWA-Free 1, CM Impulse submitted TIE-Free 264, and LC Tempest submitted TIE-TC 201. The third assignment is as follows:
Current Assignment: TIE-DB 13 – Circlet of Domination
Deadline: September 24th
Scoring: Trivia points assigned by COL Master. First flying segment will be one point for each mission flown, two if it’s a mission high score. Third assignment scoring is:
Top LL Score: 10 points
Second place: 5 points
Third place: 3 points
1 extra point for each individual mission highest scorer (total of 6 points available).
Awards: TBA
Score Board:
COL Daniel Bonini – 5 points
LC Tempest – 3 points
CM Impulse – 3 points
* What if it was us?
Participants: Gamma Squadron Flight 3 only!
Gamma Flight 3 pilots are to fly XWA-TC 62 – Outbreak. For every mission, they are to write one paragraph of fiction telling what the mission would be like if it was actually The Four Horsemen ™ that participated in the mission. If by any chance we are already in any particular mission, they can write about what we actually did, or should have done (so mission designers can portrait us properly next time). Fictions will be judged by humor, coolness, or whatever makes The Four Horsemen ™ look good...or bad. Grammar and spelling not to be an issue. Fictions will be judged by Gamma Flight 3 Leader (currently Gamma CMDR), who will also fly the battle, but won’t be eligible for the IS-BW.
Awards: IS-BW for battle top scorer and IS-BR for best fiction.
Deadline: September 15th

Awards: Highest scorer after 4 rounds will win a IS-BW Any pilot who scores higher than me after 4 rounds will also receive a IS-BW. Medals only available to pilots within Gamma Squadron. Any entries from other pilots are welcome.
Description: In an effort to promote good missions, lots of medals and good old competitive spirit each week I’m going to nominate a free/battle/map. After four weeks (end of each month) the scores will be totaled. Highest scorer will win a medal as well as any pilot who beats my own score.

The highly prestigious title of Dark Lord of the Week is only given to the person who has most advanced the success of the Squadron, amused the CMDR, or slipped me the most $5 notes in a brown paper bag. This week's winner is:
LC Tempest, for being awarded an IS-BR after what...about 3 years? ;)

Yub Yub!
Every story has a hero, every journey has a first step, every Fleet has a pilot who's about as much use as an ashtray on a speeder bike. This weeks's Prize Ewok is none other than:
COL Zosite, for not showing up all week...
