NEWS
    • Everyone's favorite hobbit is back! HA Frodo March has returned to lead the Warrior to glory yet again! Welcome back, sir!

    • LCM Spiffy the Chicken was promoted to Lieutenant Commander. Congratulations Commander, you earned it.

    • LC Michael Emrys has been with the Tie Corps 15 years! Wow!

    • As I posted on the mail list, it would seem there's a good slew of Star Wars mods out for Space Engineers. If I can find the time (and ply the bandwidth from my kid watching shows on Netflix), I will re-download it and check things out.

    • The COO is (still) possibly having a MP event day, so keep watching comms! Saturday March 7th is the tentative date for XWA. Results for the Star Conflict night can be found here.

    • Warrior Trivia. I placed 3rd, LCM Len Eode watched my six at 4th, and LCM Spiffy the Chicken brought up the tail end. Good work yet again guys!

    • Warrior Day is coming! March 31st is the day we celebrate our ship's recommissioning, so watch comms for activities related to it!
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, I've been working extra shifts between my two jobs. 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. COO Monthly Challenge - Until December 31st - The person with the most kills in a single Star Conflict match can win a DFC! Screenshots must be manually submitted to the COO and SOO. Full details here.

    3. 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! Still waiting on week four to start up.

    4. Dempsy's Weekly Riddles - The Hammer COM 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 Hammer COM the spam of a bunch of answers after the first one has already been received.)

    5. 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 3: Battle on the Frontier. More information here.

    6. 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 time to move on to, TOD 2: The Great Search. More information here.

    7. TC Promotional Video - Until March 1st - The Tie Corps needs new videos! Time is running out, you have until March 1st TODAY 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.

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

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

COMMANDER'S CORNER

Still learning the ropes here, so if I skip over something or whatnot, please do not hesitate to let me know! I'll try to come up with a good competition or two in the next month or so, right now I'm looking through past competitions to see what made some work and others not.
