Wing XIV
Report #9
11.16.2003 - COL Gidda
COL Gidda,
11/16/2003
Greetings
everyone!
It's good to see such a high flying activity from many pilots,
especially from all our new Lieutenants. Then I wish to personally
commend Phantom and CrimsonFury for flying a lot and give the good
example to their pilots and CM Shikie who has completed 18 battles this
week, excellent work!
On the Multiplayer side congratulations to LT Big Poppa K and CPT Drako
of Diamondback who got 4 LoCs and 1 DFC this week! Unfortunately our MP
Top Ace, CM Machinari, transfered to the Vanguard to become the new
Echo Squadron Commander. It is sad to have lost a good pilot like him
but I'm also very happy for his promotion, congratulations Mach I
couldn't think to a better pilot for that CMDR spot.
CM Penfold transfered to Reserves due to a new RL job (congratulations!
:p) and the new Asp Squadron Commander is MAJ Tyr Anasazi. Good luck
Tyr, do some practice with your new TIE Phantom and keep those Asp
pilots in shape! ;-)
The most important competition currently running is the Beer Cup or
Sovereign vs Intrepid & Vanguard. Battles to fly are XvT-TC 75,
XWA-TC 24, TIE-TC 211 and participation seems to be good so far.
Remember that I expect all pilots to submit AT LEAST one pilot file for
this competition whereas I expect CMDRs to complete ALL three battles,
deadline is 30th November so you have plenty of time to do that.
Then there's the Realistic Combat competition. This isn't as important
as the Beer Cup because it's "just" a Wing-wide competition still I'd
like to see a good participationbecause Cooperative Multiplayer is very
fun. Today I have received Krayt's submission: Crimson Fury, Cutter and
Arid have flown together against the evil Rebels, they defeated them
and got a good score too, well done!
Congratulations to LCM Arid Foxtrot who won the third ASF Recruitment
competition and got a shining Imperial Star with Gold Ribbon and to CM
Spade who received an Imperial Star with Silver Ribbon for winning the
Create a Battle Plotline contest. Too bad the OPS still has to process
our MSE medals, I hoped to list them in this report but I guess we have
to wait until next report.
I want to conclude saying that with departures of Penfold and Machinari
we are down to 43 pilots. It's time to start some recruitment effort
again, be sure that everyone who will bring "fresh meat" into the
Snakepit will be rewarded with a special prize.
Two new free

End Of Imperial Storm IV
16:13 - VA Pel [Palinathas@aol.com]
With
the escape of the Sovereign to Aurora, Imperial Storm IV has come to an
end. While the Sovereign enjoys it's Minor Victory, the War Officer is
already hard at work on Imperial Storm V. Suggestions are being taken
via email. Thank you to all who participated in ISIV, and in advance to
all who offer suggestions for ISV.

Mission Used: XvT Free #73
Medals to be awarded: IS-SW to all members of winning Team,
IS-BW to all members of 2nd Team.
Details: Fly XvTF-73 in
Co-Op mode, it's up to CMDRs whether to stick to Flights roster or
create mixed Teams (i.e. 1 pilot from Flight I and 2 pilots from Flight
III) but each Team must have either 2 or 3 pilots (for obvious reasons
1
pilot Teams aren't allowed!).
Once a Team has completed the mission ALL pilots of that Team must send
me their ZIPPED pilot file and a screenshot showing the mission scores.
The total score of a squadron will be calculated summing the Teams
score.
