Greetings pilots of the Hammer!
Welcome to this weeks Hammer Ship Report. It's been an eventful week aboard ship with medals, discord activity, competitions and a change to our Squadron Commander line-up. As you may have seen CPT Xye has taken over as Beta Squadrons Commander, this was due to CPT Mantisa not returning from his LoA as expected last month. I hope wherever he is the good Captain will find his way back to us in due course, however as I mentioned in a mail to the ship earlier this week we do need an active lineup of commanders, therefore I am pleased to see CPT Xye take the hot seat. We wish him luck!
Those of you on Discord will have seen the #Day-of-our-TIE channel is now live at the bottom of the list of Hammer channels. It's a run-on/soap opera that has already had your COM in stitches so please check it out and take part, it's utterly hilarious!
The first round of the Trivia for the Hammered - Christmas Special has been completed, well done everyone! Read on below to find out more about the ongoing competitions.

Hammer Holiday Puzzle
To spread some holiday cheer for the Hammer, I feel a puzzle is in order! Pilots will compete for the best time with medals up for grabs for the top 6 fastest pilots. The puzzle featuring some festive ewoks can be found here https://www.jigsawplanet.com/?rc=play&pid=007c103a4a9f
Rules: Screenshots need to show the number of pieces from the bottom-left corner of the screen, the time shown in the middle, and the completed puzzle. Working through the puzzle multiple times and using all the options available in the app are allowed, except one: Don't change the number of pieces from 70.
When you're satisfied with your time, take a screenshot and send it to theblackxranger@gmail.com. One entry per pilot, multiple submissions will not be accepted and only the first submission will be counted.
