ISD WARRIOR WEEKLY REPORT #7

REPORTING OFFICER: Rear Admiral Zekk Terrik
DATE SUBMITTED: February 22 2021

FROM THE DESK OF THE COMMODORE

We have had a few shinies come down from the top brass so far, and we are expecting a lot more soon. I have also released my History of the Warrior competition, for which I have already received a very nice looking submission! I am expecting a lot more. Don't make me execute you.

I have attached a bit of fiction to this report too, and hope you enjoy it. I want to take a moment to thank LC Rando for his years of dedicated service to the Warrior. We hate to see you go. Enjoy your stay on the Phoenix.

I also hope to see you all for Warrior MP night, which is Saturday February 27th at 5 PM EST. I'll be there and I honestly can't wait!

I know I discussed this in my last report, but I have decided to temporarily shelve the proposal I was working on, mostly out of frustration. I might pick it up again later.

WARRIOR ROSTER

    SHIP COMPETITIONS

  • History of the Warrior - You may notice that the Warrior currently has no backstory on our Wiki page. It is time to create one.

    Turn in a new fiction of at least 200 words to qualify! Please email it directly to zekkterrik@gmail.com.

    I will judge the best submissions. Please note that there is an entry for an ISD Warrior on Wookieepedia, but this may not be the same Warrior!

    Let's get creative with this because it WILL be added to the official EH wiki when I choose the winner and become EH canon! Did this ship serve during the Galactic Civil War or did Ronin have it built? What famous battles did we participate in and what famous heroes have been stationed on this ship? Famous drunken parties? Remember that time we saved the fleet from certain destruction? Get as creative and as in depth as you want!

  • Warriors Stand Together - We will show the rest of the TIE Corps why we are the flagship - because Warriors stand together. We stand strong in our bonds of teamwork and camaraderie.

    Let's show them our teamwork! From now until the end of February, earn points by flying with other Warrior pilots. Any Star Conflict match with another Warrior pilot is worth 1 point per match. Any XvT, XWA, BF2, or Squadrons game with another Warrior pilot is worth 2 points per match.

    Earn multipliers by playing with other pilots. Example: if you play with at least one other pilot during the competition, your multiplier is x1 (this gets you on the scoreboard). At least two other pilots, x2. At least three others, x3. And so on. If you play against each other, the losing pilot will still have their multiplier increased, but they will not be awarded their 1 or 2 points.

    To participate in the competition, send your screens directly to zekkterrik@gmail.com. And yes, playing with your beloved COM can increase your multiplier. ;)

  • FLEET COMPETITIONS

    Here’s some fleet-wide competitions currently going on:

  • TIE Corps In Battle

  • TIE Fighter - TIE TC 223 The Search for Mosh

    X Wing vs TIE Fighter - XvT TC #48 Bravo Company Training

    X Wing Alliance - XWA TC 42 ECR V Training Maneuvers

  • SP Ace of the TIE Corps 2021

  • Every Single Player mission flown earns the pilot a point on the Kill Board and the top three pilots at the end of the month earn medals. Yearly, the top four pilots earn medals.

    Each mission only counts once for the year, but missions flown in previous years can be reflown for points on the Kill Board (but not additional FCHG points). The Kill Board statistics on the TIE Corps website are final. IS-GW/SW/BW for top 3 monthly, at the end of the year the top 4 pilots win IS-PW/GW/SW/BW. The top pilot at the end of the year also receives the title of SP Ace of the TIE Corps 2021.

  • February COO Objective Scramble: The Wingman

  • Pilots,

    There will be a rotating COO Objective each month for a chosen platform and goal. This month is gathering the most assists in Star Wars Squadrons in Dogfight or Fleet Battles (PvP or PvE) modes.

    Objective: Submit your highest assist game in Dogfight, Fleet Battles or Fleet Battles vs AI mode flown between February 1, 2021 (0:00 GMT) and February 28, 2021 (Must be submitted no later than 23:59 GMT) by e-mail to tc-combat-ops-office@googlegroups.com The COO and COOAs will have access to these submissions and place them in an online tally. At the end of the month, the top three pilots will be determined and be given awards. In the case of a tie score, the determining factor is which pilot had the least deaths. If for some reason the assist and death counts are tied, then score will be the determining factor.

    To encourage further participation, each winning pilot per month will be given a rating of 3 points at maximum, scalable to 2 or 1 if less than 3 pilots participate a month. The top three pilots at the end of the year will attain the annual awards.

  • COO's Star Wars Challenge Episode VII - 2021

  • Pilots,

    Welcome to the 2021 refresh of the COO's Star Wars Challenge.

    Platforms Involved: X-Wing vs TIE Fighter, X-Wing Alliance, Squadrons.

    Objective: Accumulate the most missions in a Star Wars branded approved multiplayer platform. You may submit PvP battles (Legion of Combat) or PvE battles (Legion of Skirmish). You have from 00:00 GMT on the first day of the month to begin and your submissions must be approved by the Combat Operations Office no later than 23:59 GMT on the last day of the month.

    At the end of the month the totals will be tallied for each pilot's LoC and LoS scores and totaled into a sum. The top three scoring pilots will receive the respectively monthly reward based on ranking.

    There will also be an ongoing annual ranking so you are encouraged to continue participation. The top pilot will be given 3 points for that month towards that ranking, reduced to 2 or 1 if there are less than 3 pilots participating each month. At the end of the year, the top three pilots overall will receive the annual awards.

Neko will choose her favorite and the runners-up.
