From the Desk of Silwar Naiilo
Colonel Silwar Naiilo redirected all power to his engines, giving him a burst of speed to easily outrun the U-Wings and X-Wings tailing him. They were no match for the agility of his TIE Interceptor, diving deftly between asteroids, missiles peppering the rocky walls surrounding him. 'Pitiful.' His ship beeped to alert that they were closing in, and he turned, transferred power to his lasers, and shot them out of the sky before they had a chance to fire back.
Squadrons has had an excellent release, and the number of active pilots for this week's shootout has shown it - at one point, we had at least three groups of five shooting Rebels and rogue Imperial factions out of the sky. August MSE awards have begun to go out, as have ISs earned during RtF. The new game is sure to keep our COO's office busy as they finalize recommendations for LoCs and LoSs.
Squadron Orders
This week's orders are based on citations which we are close to winning, as will typically be our theme - one from each platform. Besides these missions, anyone with Squadrons is ordered to hit those training simulators hard!
