Sigma Squadron
SIGMA SQUADRON WEEKLY REPORT #1
SIGMA CMDR: CM Lanil Jast
REPORT DATE: February 19, 2015
NEWS
    • First and foremost, I have been appointed as the new Sigma CMDR. Most of you know me already from my time as Sigma Flight 3 Lead, so I hope you all will continue the great comradere and performance Sigma is known for and please do not hesitate to come to me with any questions, ideas or concerns.

    • LCM Len Eode is now Sigma 3-1, congratulations! Sorry about the ants in the cockpit, I like to snack on the long patrols and the gunboat is built for lazy cruising.

    • Get the word out! There's a guy over on Twitch here who is streaming XWA and also plays XW. The COO sent him information about us so hopefully the TC will get some free press and a potential new member. All the better if we can rope him into Sigma!

    • The COO is possibly having a MP event day, so keep watching comms! Friday February 27th is the tentative date for Star Conflict and Saturday March 7th is the tentative date for XWA.

    • Warrior Trivia. I placed fourth, missing out on the top 3 slots by only 13 seconds. LCM Len Eode checked in at 7th, and LT Spiffy the Chicken brought up the tail end. Good work guys!
COMPETITIONS

Make sure to check the Competitions Center and Combat Center for full details on all the competitions. I'm just going to summarize here!

We have no current Sigma-only competitions right now as I'm still getting settled in. If anyone has an idea for a competition please let me know!

    1. Tie Corps on Patrol 2015 - Until December 26th - Each Saturday the SOO will announce 1 free mission or battle for TIE, XVT, BoP and XWA. (Yes that's a total of 4 things to load into EHBL each week, not just one!) You have until next Saturday at 0800 GMT to get the files submitted. IS-SWs and IS-BWs as appropriate. More information here.

    2. Star Conflict Objectives - Until February 28th -  Don't go for kills in Star Conflict! Only objectives will get you points in this competition. Just submit your screenshots as normal, and the office of the COO will do the rest.

    3. COO Monthly Challenge - Until December 31st - The person with the most kills in a single match can win a DFC! Screenshots must be manually submitted to the COO and SOO. Full details here.

    4. Warrior Trivia - Each week, MAJ Plif will give a link to 5 questions. Start them whenever you like, but once you start answer as quick as you can! This week's questions can be found here.

    5. Dempsy's Weekly Riddles - The TAC will include a riddle in his weekly reports. First one to reply back with the correct answer gets an IS-BR. Higher versions available at milestone accumulations. Unlike most other trivia competitions, it is encouraged to reply-all on your answer to share it to the group (and save the TAC the spam of a bunch of answers after the first one has already been received.)

    6. The GOG Games (TIE Fighter) - Until December 31st - Play through the original TIE campaigns throughout the year, rack up points, get awards! This month is Battle 2: The Sepan Civil War. More information here.

    7. The GOG Games (X-Wing) - Until December 31st - Same thing but play as the evil Rebels on X-Wing. This one is only "half" as long as the other, with each Tour of Duty having two months to play through instead of just one. This month it's still the first one, TOD 1: A New Ally. More information here.

    8. TC Promotional Video - Until March 1st - The Tie Corps needs new videos! Time is running out, you have until March 1st to get your promotional video turned in for review. Awards will vary based on how many people participate. Because the videos will be posted on YouTube, please do not use any copyrighted music. (Can't exactly get around copyrighted material as a whole, i.e. TIE Fighters, etc. that Disney/LFL owns but that comes under Fair Use). More information here including specifications for submission.

    9. Ace of the TC (SP/MP) - Monthly - Get LoCs, fly missions and battles. Most in a month wins medals!

    10. One-Word Run-on - Keep posting words, making a story with other EH members! The thread is at the forums.

COMMANDER'S CORNER

Many thanks to MAJ Flelm and his tenure as Sigma CMDR. He will be missed. I am also thankful to the higher-ups for giving me this opportunity. Now if I can just get my chair adjusted right I can really settle in.

I hope I will do you all proud, and again if anyone has any suggestions or simply needs to talk my door is always open!
