Wing X Report #21
COL Daniel Bonini 7/24/2006
Wing X Weekly Report #21 – 24th of July 2006
Introduction
Greetings,
Coranel is back!!!
Following Granite’s resignation, the new TCBGCOM, VA Talons Pryde, has chosen Coranel as our new Commodore. This should mean a new time of prosperity to this ship. Its time for a rebuild, so, either if you are a new recruit or an old veteran with platinum ribs and iron plate in your forehead, let’s get to work!!
Inferno Squadron has a new Commander. Newly promoted CM Dalk Darklighter was chosen for the job. Congrats, and the best of luck to Dalk!!! Thanks to DV for all his work while CMDR, for which he has received a Silver Star of the Empire!!
Bad news for Typhoon, though, because, sadly, P has decided not to remain as Typhoon Commander. We’ll let you know when there are any news in that front...
Finally, medal recommendations for the Challenge vs. Sovereign comp have been made, so, expect those to be processed in a few days.
There are a lot of people complaining about last night’s spam outburst. To these people, I can only offer my apologies....or not...there are comments of MoCs being recommended for everybody involved....there are also some comments of some brig time....this means party in the detention area!!!!
SL Destroyer has been promoted to Lieutenant, for flying a XWA-Free mission, and submitting his INPR. Congrats!!!!

Competitions
* TIECorps Summer Patrol 2006
The new summer patrol is kicking off this coming monday, the 17th, and it will run for 8 consecutive weeks. Each week will have a set number of missions to fly and each will progress in difficulty.
To participate in this long Summer Patrol, all you need to do is submit the required missions (which are posted at the Sovereign forum), with the topic of "Summer Patrol Week 1 to AD Stele at tieknt@gmail.com. You will have until the end of Sunday to submit them. Those who survive the Summer Patrol of 8 weeks shall be rewarded the Iron Star-Gold Wings!
Visit the Sovereign forum thread at http://mb.emperorshammer.net/viewtopic.php?t=3646
Good luck and I hope to see you joining the Summer Patrol.
Week 1 Summer Patrol Assignment (you only need fly 4 of the listed missions below)
TIEFREE-265, 264, 262, 261, 260
XvTFREE-210, 208, 207, 206, 205
XWAFREE-135, 132, 134, 127, 124
I think week 2 assignments have not come out yet...
* Challenge Vs. Sovereign Competition
Medals recommended...
* 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!
* Which CATO said?
Uther is the EH's first CA:TO. However, there have been others through history. Every two weeks, Uther will issue a quote: you have to work out which CATO might have said it, or had it said about them. You will have two weeks to send your answers to Uther. Phases: 1. 2-18/6/06 2. 19/6-2/7/06 3. 3-17/7/06
* CA:TO Craft Comp.
What ship should the new CA:TO have as his personal craft? He's looking for as much detail as you care to include, such as ship name, type, specs, and personalization touches, bearing in mind his previous career in the IW & FMC. Go to town on this - illustrate your entry if possible, too.
* A Collector's Eye
AD Jarek La'na would like a portrait of himself for posterity of course :P He’d like the EHs artists to have a read of http://mb.emperorshammer.net/viewtopic.php?t=3365 and be inspired. He will except images in any popular format, and he’d like to encourage you to use whatever medium you can... submissions to him at comm@emperorshammer.org with the subject "You call this art?". IS-BR for every artist that submits a good quality piece, with a one off award of an MoC - a Platinum Cluster - for his favourite at the end of the competition.
* Iron Mission Creator 2006
Due to apparent public demand, its time once again to crown a champ. For those who don't know, IMC is to see what our beloved mission creators can do under pressure. They are given a topic and an hour & a half, and we see what comes out the end. Rounds will take place after the EH Meeting in #vsd_sinister (unless otherwise mentioned) and all submissions will be judged by TAC, CA:TAC and another party. The creator with the best mission will progress to the next round (and so on and so forth). Final Winner will also have the chance to go up against TAC/CA:TAC in the chance for further medals and bragging rights. Anyone wanting to take part is to email both VA Master and his CA indicating as such no later than the 28th of May. A message board post has been set up here for anything u may wish to comment on or ask.
* Smiert SpioCOMM
Every Saturday till June, at 1.30 EST, La'an or Brukhar will be hiding on a +s IRC channel. Whoever finds them first will receive an MoC. Impossible? All participants will be provided with a first channel - its topic will be a clue to the next channel. Only by answering the clues and finding the correct channels will they be found. Clues will be themed, with one word answers that will take the form #answer.
* 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.
* TIE Corps Battlegroup Training Night:
The TCBG sponsored MP night. Show up in IRC channel #EHCOO on Saturdays at 6pm GMT (1pm EST) to win LoC's and DFC's
I’m not sure this will continue...
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:
VA Coranel Both, for being our COM!!!
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 leaving Typhoon Command...bah!!!
Quote of the Week
Oskar: “SPAM SPAM WONDERFUL SPAM!
Spam Spam Spam Eggs and Spam :P”
Reports received
Thunder Squadron: received and received last week’s with delay
Typhoon Squadron: received final report from P
Inferno Squadron: received first report from Dalk
Cyclone Squadron: received both
Tornado Squadron: received
Omicron Squadron: received
Great work!!!!!!!!!!
Conclusion
And that’s about it. This was a pretty hard report to do, because of all the spamming....most likely it’s all P’s fault, but no worries there. Good activity from the Wing this week, I’d like to see that every week, I think I am. One again, Coranel being back made me get my hopes up for the future of this ship. Have a great week!!!
