INTRO

 

Good day pilots. Been another busy week, not to mention I've been ill, so I'll be quick this time. Please, let us welcome Lt. Hopfot to our unit, a good XvT vet and an outstanding RPer. He wrote an awesome INPR that could very well become a wikia entry! . With that said, I have to mention we're back in BSC dot com, for those of you not familiar with it, read below oh and this is the final battle of IS so lets try to contribute our best for it! Last but not least, I've been thinking on linking you to some videos I'd like to debate. Let me know what you think.

  • Latest news can be found here. Yes, click there.

    Well, here I do link you to the EH news but since a lot has been happening I thought we could talk a bit over here to be a bit consistent with my own report format.

    New Flight Sim Hype

    Star Wars Squadrons, regardless of how will it be whether arcade-ish or not, has generated a lot of hype. As a witness of this on multiple Discord channels I can say it feels so 1999 :D  so I’m happy.  I can only hope  I manage to get the game,  that it isn’t as arcade-ish as some think it might be (even though I’d live with that and have fun) and research on the classic games doesn’t stop because of the new game and its possible potential for modding. So much hype in fact, RP organizations are getting on the hype wagon to drag some unsuspecting recruits into their ranks. Here’s when we keep in mind we RP inside our gaming environment, we are both RP and gaming if you would.  We are receiving (and will receive more in the future), proposals for alliances and partnerships. If you as members of the TC, happen to be contacted by anyone for such things, please drop me, CMDR Zekk, Admiral Miles Prower or TCCOM Plif a message. Whoever is online should work for this though, ideally, you should contact first either Zekk or I as the ROAs. If we are both offline, then try with Miles and if he’s offline then Plif.  We are there so the workload can be delegated. (Meaning, if you learn about a channel or environment we might be interested for possible diplomatic relations or recruitment, tell us first).

Latest TCCOM report
  • Imperial Storm - Final Stand!

    I'm just gonna quote our COM here. '*SALUTE* pilots of the mighty ISD II Hammer,

    this is it, the big final battle. We're add bad odds, but we still can show that we're not the easy prey we looked like during our first encounters of this Imperial Storm incarnation!

    This time the mission is to fly TIE Free 218 for an as high score as possible. In addition to that we need as many LoC/LoS from approved platforms as we can get until Wednesday 23:59:59 UTC.
    I want ALL hands ready and fighting 'till the bitter end. We're soldiers, we're imperials, we're Hammer pilots! Let's show those Warrior guys how a Hammer pilot dies!'

    I have to say, Woody has a gift for motivating his men. So, what I want you to do? Check your inbox for COL Doyon's excellent guides on this mission and follow his instructions! Keep flying  MP as much as possible.

 Alpha Squadron

  • You are to fly TIE free 218 and get the best score you can + as much LoCs and LoS as humanly possible till wednesday, at 23:59 GMT
  • Welcome Lt. Hopfot into our ranks! A good XvT veteran who has created one of the best INPRs I've seen so far.
  • I'm doing some maintenance here: requesting AWOLs and accepting transfers. There will be a couple open slots so if you want to recruit your friends (and they'll be active) then invite them to join EHTC!
 Your CMDRs' Own Crazy Activities Nobody Was Asking For.

So, what have been your crazy CMDR up to?  
I’ve got to be crazy to get myself into so many things at once.
I’ve been quite busy working online but I manage to keep an eye on Discord so its most likely I’ll be there 24/7 just in case, you know, you want to proactively contact me, your CMDR… really, I don’t bite and I took a shower :V

  • Writing isn't as easy as it sounds. I’ve been writing around 200-300 words a day on my spare time. I’m trying to come up with a decent English but honestly, it’s not just the English per se, it’s about properly describing the actions and what kind of actions takes place. I’ll just write up whats on my mind and let the thing go  on .
  • I've spent some spare time installing one of the classic Doom's ports and a mod called 'Brutal Doom'. Man, so bloody fun (yes, pun intended). Totally not for PG. Fun for adults. You can ride vehicles, have extra weapons and new monsters and even recoil effects. Fun stuff.You need to install a specific Doom port, then the pk3 file and you need to own a copy of Doom or Doom 2.
  • So, theres this spanish squadron who is in contact with the X-Wing community Discord, who has been using a DSUCP install for their MP activities. They enabled it for public DL: 
 https://drive.google.com/open?id=1zsGru0fLvAvDBC6WJm7XKb9aG9Jjxjpd

  • There is another DSUCP install that seems actively maintained by the X-Wing Community itself whose link can be found here both this and the previous one need to be tested so I've scheduled to install and test each one.
  • A third one will come with the TFTC project for XWA. It is most likely we could be using it. We need to check it out.
  • Also I was working on my own install of DSUCP...so I have to test it along with the others and see which one is the best for our MP fun.
  • I've been meaning to write up the email for our squadron new role and fighters. I think I could be doing it on the next following days.
  • My activities as ROA have kept me busy looking at other Discord channels and interacting with a number of people outside EH. Generally it has been a good, learning experience that reminds me of my times in Astro Empires as a diplomat. But it can get time consuming at moments.
  • I'm tasked with helping our SCO testing a few of our mods on XWA. I'm probably doing what's left of this task tomorrow.
  • Also being honored with checking what would be the next version of SM/5, our course for CMDRs written by our esteemed Sin CMDR, LC Zekk Terrik.
  • Installed and tested the latest version of Expanding Fronts. A Galactic Battlegrounds mod you totally need to install and enjoy!
For what I want to do with the XW series, the plan remains, the general outlines of my fiction are done, writing now the detailed story before I start building missions.

As for modding, if all works, on XvT we'd be playing the following flight plan:

1) TIE Campaign part I - Battles 1-7

2) Default XvT/BoP missions

3) BoP campaign

4) TIE Campaign II: battles 8-13

5) TC PvE enabled missions and battles.

So there will be a lot of PvE for us to do on XvT/BoP.
For XWA I plan for us the following:

1) Converted TIE Campaign

2) Converted XvT/BoP missions

3) Converted BoP campaign

4) (Possibly, need to talk to Yoda) converted XvT/BoP PvE enabled missions/battles.

5) Storyline about us, the new canon and some events based on RL I wanted to propose on my fiction.

Either way we'd have a lot of PvE activity and I'd like us to try PvP not just with the default craft but also with the custom ones.
Also, whenver you have the time update not just your INPR but consider an article for your character on the wikia.
I'd like very much for us to do this on a weekly basis once it is ready. Possibly friday or saturday, I'd locally record it and post the gameplay to keep a flight record of our deeds as a squadron.

  • LT Hopfot from PLT Daedalus to Alpha 2-3.

MISCELLANEOUS.

 

If you like it and can spare some time, get involved on the runon story on Discord or else I'll write us all lol.
Working on setting up full gaming status on windows 8, then we start playing the XvT/BoP gaming campaigns which I'll stream.

Hit me up on Telegram/Discord/Facebook or Whatsapp. I’m usually able to respond 24/7.

 

COMMANDER’S ANALYSIS

 

I'm  sorry about the inactives but I'll be requesting at least frequent communication.  I don't mind if you're busy with RL if you do tell us. If you can hang around with us for a bit then fine. If you can only report  once a month because  you're busy then do tell and I'll understand, just mail me or reach to me on Discord. If I have to reach to you for a couple months just for you to say hi then it is better you consider going to reserves. We need to make room for pilots who are willing to participate actively.
