NEWS

The COM is missing! To help find him, we've been given three directives by the Wing Commander:

  • Scout out territory in Star Conflict (earning as many LoCs as possible from now until the end of the month)
  • Each week, we'll be given one training mission to fly that was created by the COM to find clues about his whereabouts (this week's assignment is TIE-TC 233, fly for the highest possible score)
  • Every Sunday, we'll be given three clues that point to a location that the COM might have gone to (email answers to ehfrown@gmail.com, not the whole mailing list)

In the first week of the "clues" portion of the search for the COM, Sin was represented by CPT Wondra and your fearless leader. In the MP section, CM Nolij and your courageous captain are both on the board. In the SP section, your skilled skipper came in second place.

The renewal of Sinner's Delight has been completed! For January, I split the month into two halves. For each half, we've got an IS-SW going to the Sin pilot with the most SP missions flown and a second IS-SW going to the Sin pilot with the most LoCs earned. Further, we've got an IS-BW for each of the runners up. I decided to limit this version to January, in case we need to tweak it for February. The first half ends on the 15th at midnight, so there's still time to put in some flight time to win those awards!

The December MSE was sent to our WC earlier in the week. Per the TCCOM's report, the MWE was submitted as well.

OPEN COMPETITIONS
The Competitions Center and Combat Center on the TIE Corps site can provide all the details for each competition. In my reports, I'll just be listing short summaries of each open competition that are open to Sin pilots. Also, I'm treating the two Ace of the TIE Corps competitions as a given, since they're always around.
  1. Sinner's Delight: Each half of the month, our most prolific pilots will win Iron Stars! (Sin, 2680 and 2681)

  2. SC PvE: Fly at least 10 Star Conflict PvE missions, submit screenshots to the COO and COOA, highest Efficiency average from each pilot's top ten scores win awards! Bonus awards for grouping! (Whole TC, 2677)

  3. SC Wingman: Highest assist scores from Star Conflict PvP missions win awards! (Whole TC, 2679)

  4. COO Monthly Challenge: Highest kill amount (with assists counted as half a kill) in Team Battle or Domination missions wins a DFC! This is now automatically tracked from LoC submissions, no need to send a separate email. (Whole TC, 85)

  5. Find the COM: See above, plus competition numbers 2676, 2675, and 2674 in the database (Wing II)

  6. X-Wing Replay: This year, we're flying through the original missions in X-Wing! In January in February, fly TOD 1: A New Ally. Pilot file and screenshot of the debriefing screen should be sent to the TAC. High scores for the whole tour win awards! (Whole TC, 2664)

CLOSING THOUGHTS
I went with a non-weekly Sinner's Delight to award more IS-SWs and also to account for the delay in LoC approvals we've been seeing lately. There are some solutions being looked at for LoCs, so hopefully that won't be an issue for much longer. If you like or dislike the new version of Sinner's Delight, let me know so I can keep it or change it up again for February.


Yours sincerely,
