RHO WEEKLY SQUADRON REPORT #10 |
REPORTING OFFICER: Colonel Hav Antiel, Squadron Commander |
SQUADRON COMMANDER'S CORNER |
Welcome to this week's report, pilots. Lots of big news this week, but the most exciting is that Rho Squadron now has 12 pilots. We're a full squad, pilots! We reactivated Rho Squadron a little over two months ago, and for a few weeks it was just four of us trying to make a name for the squad. Thanks to our three newest pilots, SL Neko, LT Kitsune, and SL Iam Thinking, we're now a full complement of TIE Interceptors. To date, I have spent 549 days in command of squadrons in the Emperor's Hammer TIE Corps: first Epsilon, then Sin, and now Rho. And in 549 days, this is the first time I have ever had a full squadron to command. These are exciting days, pilots. These are days you'll remember. The other great big exciting news this week was the reveal of Star Wars: Squadrons gameplay footage. I know we have all been cautiously optimistic (and some of us downright pessimistic), but I am pleasantly surprised with what I saw. It won't be the single-player-heavy kind of game that I loved when I played TIE Fighter as a kid, but it should be a great platform for the TIE Corps. To be honest, I'm so geeked about the game that I'm even considering getting a VR setup. I'm going to start saving up. I feel pretty pleased that Rho pilots will be able to jump straight into the game's TIE Interceptors and feel right at home. I wonder how those other shielded, air-conditioned, hyperdrive-equipped squadrons will fare. |

CLOSING COMMENTS |
Phew! These reports take me a lot longer to compile now that we have 12 pilots, not just 4. That's a good problem to have. I've been enjoying your responses in the Wrong Answers Only comp. A few actually made me laugh out loud. We have six days left in that comp, so be sure to check in every day. Get out there and show 'em who the bad guys are. COL Hav Antiel |
