Delta Squadron Transfers to ISDII Challenge as Thunder Squadron

When the ISDII Challenge was recommissioned, we asked for one squadron each from the ISDII Hammer and ISDII Warrior to transfer to the new ship. From the Hammer, Delta Squadron stepped forward and has now made the jump.

All of Delta's 12 pilots have been transferred to the newly-activated Thunder Squadron. Thunder is commanded by GN Phoenix Berkana who's also our Simulations Officer and just concluded a very well-run Imperial Storm campaign.

Good luck on your new assignment, Thunder Squadron!

Imperial Storm Comes to a Close

Thank you for taking part in Imperial Storm 2 - this battle brings us to a end of this run of Imperial Storm as we have reached 30 turns. The final map being 8 worlds held by the WARRIOR against 2 by the HAMMER with the scores outlined below.
We were fortunate to close out with a final battle – the result of which was another resounding success for the Warrior – and also crown the Warrior as the winner of this run of the competition.

I’d like to thank everyone for taking part, it’s been phenomenal to see the legions and BSF’s pour in and I will be cranking out the awards for the winning team. I’d also like to thank GN Pickled Yoda for his effort in setting up the API that helped me track scores and AD Turtle Jerrar for the logos.

Please real the full report here.

EoR - 2020

Every week before Saturday, 06:00 UTC, Epsilon pilots submit their SC PvP/PvE/CoOp screen with the highest EFF points to SmTaUcM@Yahoo.co.uk.
In each category (PvP/PvE/COOP) the best scorer will earn 4 points, second will earn 3 points, third 2 points and every further participant 1 point. These points will be summed up.

The pilot with most points at the end of the week will earn an IS-BW. The pilot with most points at the end of the month will earn an IS-SW, second an IS-BW. The pilot with most points at the end of the year will earn an IS-SW, second an IS-BW.

For each submitted screen (max 1 per category per week) the pilot earns 1 activity point.
Every 10 activity points the pilot earns an IS-BW. When reaching 50 activity points the pilot earns an IS-SW instead and the activity points are set to 0 again.
