Iota Squadron
Report #1
8.12.2005 - CM Jaques Landeux
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*with swift steps CM Landeux enters the briefing room stopping at a podium and facing his chatting pilots*
Commander Landeux reporting in for Iota Squadron on the 12th of August 2005.
Ok pilots, welcome to my very first report. Activity improved a little last week and I guess the trend will continue, as we have a Commander again (me :P ) providing you with wonderful competitions and the summer is ending (at least here where I live -.-) .
Squadron News
*Iota command changed from MAJ Beir to me which you surely already have noticed
so again good luck and all the best to you Kadon, I hope I'll lead the squadron well.
* LT Darkstar has been promoted to FL of Flight 2
* Our squadron is not yet complete so the call for recruits still remains. Go out there, grab your friends, schoolfriends, relatives, strangers from the street and tell them about the fame, the women and the free drinks which will await them here!
*Iota Squadron's website is back up again so pay it a visit to find news and competitions there
http://iota.minos.net/
*Check out the Iota Squadron Battleboard ( http://www.gysnet.com/index.php?wing=8&squad=5 ) or use this thread (with colour code for easy orientation! :P ): http://mb.emperorshammer.net/viewtopic.php?t=1195 to see which battles need to be flown to get Iota a citation
If you are flying anyway, why not fly these battles?
At the moment we have 13 citations.
*Make sure you log into the messageboard at least once or twice a week to have fun and even more important to keep you informed. You don't have to read the whole messageboard but at least the Iota part, especially the Datalog, which makes it easier for me to track your activity and for you to show it:

*mIRC presence is also welcome #ISD_Colossus, #tiecorps, #emperor's_hammer or #ehcoc for mp *feels alone in #isd_colossus*
Wing and Ship News
* The COM and the WC are still away so Zystem Fryar is A-COM again and Angel is still A-WC. (latest news: COM is somehow back but has no stable connection unil the 24th)
* Not much else happening at the moment. Imperial Storm is in the last moves and it does not look like we have to do anything till the end. Other big competitions are coming up.
Competitions
Iota Squadron
* Fiction:
Iota's New Commander
http://www.ehtiecorps.org/competitions/details.asp?ID=2110
Write a piece of fiction concerning Iota's recent change of command and the squadron's reaction/celebration/whatever. :) Winner gets an IS-BR.
* Flying:
Iota's Monthly Hero August
http://www.ehtiecorps.org/competitions/details.asp?ID=2116
I will announce a battle each week. At the end of the month all scores will be added and the pilot with the highest score will get an IS-BW.
For this month I'll have to announce three battles in this report, as the competition started a bit late. So fly XvT-TC # 5, XvT- TC #22 and XvT-TC#24. Next month you'll have one week per battle.

Colossus and Wing VIII
*There are a few Run-Ons going on, started long ago but I'm sure there'll be medals sometime, so look at :
http://mb.emperorshammer.net/viewtopic.php?t=1414&start=240 - 1 word COMM Run-On
http://mb.emperorshammer.net/viewtopic.php?t=963&start=340 - 1 word Collie Run-On
http://mb.emperorshammer.net/viewtopic.php?t=962 - Collie COM Run-On
the one word run-ons are a really easy way to show activity and get medals so take 5 minutes to post. Besides it's fun. :)
*Nothing else happening
Miscellaneous
*If you're looking for IWATS courses to take you could do your revered commander a favour and visit the Rebellion Tactics Course ( http://rt.imperialacademy.org/ ) ;)
(wait, that's more work for me…What have I done?! Nooooo! :P )
* Numbers of missions flown last month
ISD Colossus - 246
ISD Challenge - 1521
ISD Relentless - 455
ISD Immortal - 0
We can't just leave it at that, can we?
*If you are looking for a MP opponent try to catch me on mIRC in #ISD_Colossus or on ICQ: 95832740 and we can fly a match or two, XvT or XWA doesn't matter
of course you can always contact me for any questions or complaints too
