Introduction |
Greetings,
Raise the Flag 2006, or the comp thingy, as P would say, is at full
speed right now. TCCOM’s Flagship title is at stake. I can’t point
out enough the importance of that title, and I can see that several
pilots are making an effort to help us gather points to achieve this.
Nice work so far, however, we have a little problem. Freeworlds is
worth too many points for this competition, and I’m afraid me and CM
Karce of Thunder are the only real active FW pilots in this ship
these days. Other Starships have more pilots flying for this,
especially the Redemption and Lichtor V (which carries Praetorian
Squadron).
When I came back from leave last Monday, I saw that these ships were
way ahead of us in the score. Even the Sovereign is falling behind,
so, I’ve made the decision to start a crusade to even the scores in
Freeworlds, so you can make the difference in the other areas of the
comp. But any help in FW is also very much appreciated. You can
check my progress in FW missions in my flight status down below...meanwhile,
do your job, and help us win this!! Right now, the bonus single
player comp is running...go fly!!
On a totally different matter, it seems that the Imperial Dominion
(a club that was created by former EH members) has had some problems...I’ll
not get into them, because it’s just none of my business, but the
fact is that some of the members that left the EH to join the ID are
being accepted back in the EH. Add to the list former Challenge
Commodore, Kate Flyer. She joined Red Squadron aboard the Redemption.
Check latest XO report for further details...

This week, I’ve received more than 50, yes, 50, medal awards
communications. Congratulations. This makes me very proud of you.
Keep up the good work!!!
I’d also like to congratulate Commander Rondo, who is the new
Commander of Typhoon Squadron...congrats, and good luck!!!
I resumed work on the website...it has been a little more updated. I
rewrote some of the Squadron’s introductions, to be more up to date,
and updated the latest titles and awards. Check the progress at

T/D Astra Fighter’s
Flight Status |
This week, I’ve dedicated myself to the Freeworlds part of Raise the
Flag 2006, to try and even the score with the FW players of the
other ships. Not an easy task. Also, I’ve flown for the single
player bonus comp. But, since my pilot file was not BSF’ed yet, I’ll
post it next week.
Freeworlds flying activity: 400 missions in near 32 hours.

Reflections
The
participants are to search for or create (better to create)
submissions from the fields of poetry, story writing, graphics, and
audio categories that say the most of what the upcoming holidays
mean to you. Only one entry per category may be made. Star Wars
twists are encouraged. Original creations will garner better scores.
Each entry will be worth up to 100 points. The Grand winner will be
the one with the most points overall. Writing: The submission must
have at least 1 full page single spaced lines that fit the theme.
Poetry: The submission may be of any type of poetry (except
limerick). Grammar and diction are key in this category. Graphics:
Copyrighted materials will disqualify the entrant from the category.
Audio: This can be either self-made songs, a recording of your own
writings you recite, or anything of this nature. This category must
be accompanied by a written explanation as to why it says "This is
what the season is to me". The explanation is not needed for
recitations of personal created works. Copyright enforcement is in
effect with this competition as the winners will have their works
submitted to the newsletter for publication. Audio submissions may
be submitted as links to a site to be determined. Proof
of
authorship
may
be
required
in some cases.
Medal Awards are: Iron Star: Gold ribbons (1 for each category and
for the Grand Winner), Silver ribbons for each runner up, Bronze
ribbons for the third place entries and honorable mentions. Deadline
is the end of this month, and submissions go to Talons Pryde.
* Master’s TIE Golf
Comp
This is
Master’s TIE Golf comp....you have to subscribe until October 25th
to participate. Check it out here:
http://tac.emperorshammer.net/TIEGolf/
*
Master's Monthly Map Mayhem
Start Date:
10/1/2006
Parties Involved: EH-wide
Medals: IS-GR, IS-SR, IS-BR (or subgroup equivalent) each month.
According to the System Manual (http://sysman.emperorshammer.net/)
the EH is in control of ten systems.
Each month Master is going to pick a planet from one of the EH
Controlled Systems* from the manual. Those interested will then have
the remainder of the month to create a Empire at War or SW Galactic
Battlegrounds or Jedi Academy map based on that planet.
*Master may throw in the odd other planet
from SW from time to time with more bonuses.
Designers are free to do as they like with the map provided basics
stay true to the System Manual information.
Maps will be judged on: Technical realization (use wat u got),
general plotline & general enjoyment.
All maps should be submitted ala standard TACcy Rules and via the
Custom BSF (http://tac.emperorshammer.net/tacdb/batsubmit.asp)
All maps will be judged by TAC.
* Ace of the Tie
Corps
Starting this month, we now have a
new monthly competition series - Ace of the TIE Corps. The concept
is simple - the pilot with the most flown missions at the end of
each month will recieve an Iron Star with Gold Wings and the title
"Ace of the Month". You will be able to see the progress of pilots
over time by checking the
Pilot Kill Board. At the end
of the year, the pilot with the most missions flown will recieve an
Iron Star with Platinum Wings and the title of "Ace of the TIE
Corps".
The competition is open to all members of the TIE Corps and the
counts are based on missions. Thus a battle will earn you more
points than a free mission. The June 2006 division of the
competition will end on 30th June, so get flying. Good luck!
* Imperial Alliance
Propoganda Festival
Submit
content to help promote Imperial Alliance. This can include banners,
slogans, etc. The best entry each week will get an IS-GR. The best
entry overall will be selected when Imperial Alliance is released
and will be awarded an IS-PR. Email entries to
propoganda@ehtiecorps.org.
Competition will run through January 30th, 2007.
* Quote of the Week
competition
Got some
funny IRC quotes? Send them in! Top 3 submissions per week earn an
IS-BR; top 3 submissions per month earn an IS-SR; IS-PR to the
yearly winner, IS-GR to second best yearly submission, and a IS-SR
to the third best yearly submissions. Email the quotes to FA Joe (Noon001@aol.com).
Only rules are they must have been said within the last 2 weeks (no
old, archived quotes) and you can't send in quotes of things that
you have said. Must be amusing things others have said. Competition
will run through January 21st, 2007.
* Wing X Pilot of
the Week/Month 2
Each week the
Wing X Commander will choose a pilot he believes has performed
better then any other pilot on the ship that week. At the end of the
month, Challenge Commodore will look at the overall performance of
every Pilot of the Week for that month, and will choose one of them
to become the Pilot of the Month. Each Pilot of the Week will be
awarded an IS-BR and each Pilot of the Month will be awarded an
IS-SR. The Wing X Pilot of the week will always be chosen in the
Wing Commander’s report.

Dark Lord of the
Week |
The highly
prestigious title of Dark Lord of the Week is only given to the
person who has most advanced the success of the Wing, amused the
Wing Commander, or slipped me the most $5 notes in a brown paper
bag. This week's winner is:
CM Rondo,
for getting
Typhoon CMDR job!!!
|
Ewok of the Week |
Yub Yub!
Every story has a
hero, every journey has a first step, every Fleet has a pilot who's
about as much use as an ashtray on a speeder bike. This weeks's
Prize Ewok is none other than:
P, for not knowing the
name of the comps...
|
Quote of the Week |
Prost: “congrats to
Dalk for getting a PC for supposedly doing a good job as CMDR. The
jury is still out on whether bribery was involved in that. :P”
Dalk: “Ther
was no bribery involved...
*shifty eyes*”
Darklord: “sshhhh :P”

Conclusion

I’d like to say “that’s it”, but the week has just begun, and the
fight ahead is very hard, but I’m confident in our success. But for
that, the Challenge needs your assistance. So, join the fight, with
the best of your strength. Have a good week, and be active ;)
