ISD Challenge Weekly Report #13
ISD Challenge Weekly Report #13 –
8th of January 2007 |
|
Introduction |
Good evening,
As we have been speaking about since the very beginning of the year,
the main concern of ISD Challenge right now is the Flight Roster. We
have lost too many pilots so far. This week, LT Destroyer of Cyclone
lost himself in space and is considered Missing in Action.
Lieutenants Zjon and Vorp, from Tornado Squadron, have been AWOL’ed
due to complete lack of communication with their superior officers.
On the other side, MAJ Greven Targaryen has returned to the ranks of
Typhoon Squadron, and received a warm welcome back!!
But even with Greven back, our numbers are still going down. It’s
likely that we will still lose some pilots in the near future,
because there are still some AWOLs in the roster. It is very bad,
so, the order of the month of January for the ISD Challenge crew is:
recruit!! The Challenge needs you to recruit, your Squadron,
whatever it is, really needs you to recruit, so, don’t waste time,
and bring someone to the ship.
One of our dearest members was promoted this week. If you haven’t
already, give a big congrats to Lieutenant Commander Oskar Holtz!!!
A number of Command Staff positions have been filled this week. VA
Talek Pter Dei is the new Internet Officer, VA Trido is the new
Logistics Officer, Savager is the new Hammer’s Fist Prefect, VA
Jarek La’an is the new Judge Advocate General and Stalker5 has been
appointed the new SDIR. Congratulations to them, and may they bring
more glorious days to their offices.
The MSEs/MWE have already been processed. There were just a few
medals awarded, but good medals indeed. There were two Bronze Star
of the Empire awarded, to MAJ Diaboli and LT Zosite. Their
performance throughout the last month was amazing, and they really
deserved their awards. Besides that, two Palpatine Crescents were
awarded, to LT Thorper and COL Darklord, and also two Imperial
Security Medals, to LT Rue Sokky and LCM Meyan Ravenus and there
were still one other ISM awarded to CM Impulse, but that was not for
the MWE. Also, MoC-bocs have been awarded to COL Domi, MAJ Diaboli,
CM Rondo, CM John T. Clark, MAJ Kadon Beir, MAJ Prost Varsis, LT
Zosite and LCM Oskar Holtz. Congratulations to all of you, and keep
up the amazing work you’ve done so far!
Commendations of Loyalty to Challenge personnel have been
recommended to the Fleet Commander, Executive Officer and Flight
Officer. Let’s wait and see if you were loyal to the empire enough
to earn a CoL ;)
MAJ Stryker is hosting another Multiplayer competition, the TIE
Corps Training Competition, for XvT, XWA and IA, which will take
place every Saturday, in #EHCOO, from 1300 to 1600 EST. Apparently,
only this comp and the Frozen Doom competition are authorized to
award DFCs, since they cannot be awarded for 24/7 LoCs anymore.
Former SDIR, AD Winters, has been promoted to Fleet Admiral, and
awarded the Grand Order of the Emperor, for his services as SDIR.
Congratulations to him, and the best luck in the future.
The Sovereign and the Subjugator are in war with each other. It’s
nice to see a fight from outside :D Wonder who will win this...

be at 'some' Xmas references.
All entries will be judged by TAC & should be submitted to the
Custom Battle Submission Form on the TAC Database.
Awards: IS-GR, IS-SR, IS-BR (or subgroup equivalent).
Looks a lot like the one below, doesn’t it? Guess it’s just changed
the deadline...
* TO’s Own
The title
of Training Officer's Own will be awarded to the ship whose pilots
pass the most IWATS courses per pilot in each month. For the
purposes of this competition, Omega and Praetorian Elite Squadrons
will be judged as separate ship-equivalent entities. IS-BR for the
participating pilots.
* TIE Corps

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.
* 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.
* Frozen Doom
Competition
The weekly
multiplayer combat calendar events are returning! Starting with the
Frozen Doom Competition!!! It will be held on Tuesdays from 1900 EST
to 2200 EST!
Host is GN Ric Taldrya! Matches take place in #EHCOO, COME
ONE COME ALL!
Having said that, DFCs will no longer be awarded for 24/7 LoCs. They
will only be awarded for winning combat calendar events. If you do
fly a 24/7 LoC match, e-mail the scores to
coo@emperorshammer.org.
* 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 3
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 Ship, amused the
Commodore, or slipped me the most $5 notes in a brown paper bag.
This week's winner is:
LT Zosite Konstyte
Styles and MAJ Diaboli,
for receiving Bronze
Stars!!!
|
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:
LT Zjon and LT Vorp,
for being AWOL’ed...boooohhhhh!!!!

Quote of the Week |
1 – Oskar: “Oh and I
never meant to spike the Death Stars water supply with this stuff,
it was all a mistake! I had a sip to test it and then all I remember
is a lot of empty barrels..that's also one reason why the DS went
out with such a bang :P”
2 – Domi: “I have some
really exciting news too...so be ready.”
Woooo...I like
exciting news....tell me, tellmetellmetellme :D

Conclusion
|
Busy week, hey? There’s plenty of work to do in the Ship, varying
from mopping the hangar bay to recruiting. If you won’t recruit, you
will mop, so, go recruit!! This week I sent an e-mail to the wing
mailing list with guidelines to recruiting. Anyone can use those,
and if you need any assistance with anything at all, I am at your
disposal. Have a great week, people...and, oh...go recruit!! ;)
