The Challenge Championship League began this past week and saw Tempest Squadron's own Temptations defeat Inferno Squadron's Hade's Hellfire 2-0 in two thrilling matches. In which, I am proud to say, LT Gisornator racked up an impressive 30+ confirmed kills. This week will see both of the Tempest teams go head to head...
