Fleet Business

Tuesday • August 02 • 2005 Back to Business 17:52 - FA Vladet Xavier Due to my new job requiring a drug test and background check, I am back for at least another week while they process those items. You may once again send all Security related matters to me at my primary e-mail address and get a response within the usual twelve hours or less. Imperial Storm - Turn 16 Update 12:48 - HA Priyum Patel Imperial Storm is now nearing the end-game with Turn 16 concluded. And an important development has taken place: The Sith team has invaded the Sovereign-held world of Telos. If they manage to capture it unopposed by the end of the next turn (i.e. a Hostile force doesn't show up during Turn 17 to either defend or oppose the capture), then they will score a Major Victory. As described in the IS Rules, if all other Fleets are down to 20% starting strength or less and you control at least 50% of the planets, you win by a Major Victory. The Sith who have fought strongly throughout, are now near this goal. New Wing XVI WC Chosen 12:04 - SA Cyric Congrats to Lieutenant Colonel Kayle Bayron chosen as the next Wing Commander of the ISD Predator! Good Luck to him! Monday • August 01 • 2005 Challenge Com.... 15:23 - SA Cyric Due to a clerical error by the TIEBG COM and the Flight Office (though we all know the Flight Officer never makes mistakes) LCM Prost Varsis was inadvertently promoted to the rank of RA and given COM of the Challenge. During his brief stay as COM he had performed admirably, even getting out a report for the ship, something that hasn't been done in a LONG time. His actions are commendable, however he has been returned to his squadron TEMPEST and given old rank of LCM by the Flight Office. The new REAL COM of the ISD Challenge has made his way from the Reserves and takes the chair of the Challenge. Please welcome the TC's newest COM, VA Maverick! Congrats to Maverick ATF BGCOM's Judgement winners 15:15 - SA Cyric Here are the winners of the ATF BGCOM Judgement comp: “ATF BG COM’s Own July 2005” – Wing XIX “ATF Squadron of the Month July 2005” – Chaos Squadron “ATF Pilot of the Month July 2005” – TK-7764
