August Prae Centurion: COL Ric Taldrya
TC/ID/Praetorian News:
our amigo FA Frodo's been hard at work getting the Mission compendium completed & the corrected TIE-TC225 is now available once again.
it's kinda been a slow week, but we have risen from 451 to 453 citations due to Deimos & Ric's flying efforts.
Summer Patrol Week 2: http://www.imperialacademy.org/summerpatrol.htm
this week's battles are TIE TC 215 and 222, XvT TC 101 and 105, and XWA TC 47 and 49! Or you can check it all out here: http://www.imperialacademy.org/battles.htm
the EH Newsletter 109 was released recently by FA Khadger: http://www.corporatedivision.com/sentinel/109/
news from the SDIR:
"Intel meetings re-scheduled!
Intel meetings will now occur on Saturdays, right after the EH meeting, around 5.30pm GMT.
No awards will be given for appearance but ID will be taken and counted towards future rewards.
If you want to create trivia or other sort of activity, then that's a different story.:P
ID-wide comp: "why the secrecy or when a mission goes right"!
One of the most controversial topics surrounding Intel is secrecy: why does it exist? Do we use it for lawfull ends or not?
How come no one knows what we're doing at any given moment? And so on.
Hence, the purpose of this comp is to put you thinking. Consider what you do in Intel, how much of
it is known outside (or not) and, particularly, how when you successfully accomplish a mission no one finds out about it and why.
If you want to go deeper, you can even discuss the why of people only remembering us when something goes wrong.:P
Events include:
- Fiction (poetry even if you're in the mood for it)
- Articles
- GFX (topic related)
Medals:
1st: PoC - pl
2nd: PoC - gl
3rd: PoC - sl
Submissions (which can come from Prae of course) are to be sent to your immediate leaders and all the UBIQ
(SLCR, BUDR, jediaseret@yahoo.com, winters@ehintel.net, fastalker5@gmail.com) until August 31st.
You have plenty of time considering "Great Works" is undergoing and vacations get in between. If you can't
really see where we're getting at, just drop me a line and I'll discuss it over with you. Note fiction is
exactly that fiction, so you don't need to use your ID character as a basis.
Any submissions received will then be censored (if needed) and sent for publication in future NLs.
ID MB Open Session - Season II
After the successfull experience of last year, I was hoping we could repeat it but from the two 1: eiither
everybody is perfectly clarified regarding us or you have so many doubts you don't know where to begin with.:P
Nonetheless, instead of going one by one over each ID position, I have started by opening a thread for free posting:
http://mb.emperorshammer.net/viewtopic.php?t=1424.
It's another chance for us to know how we can interact with other SGs and how we can come clean and show you
what we're all about. Some new threads will be started soon." FA Aseret Thunderhawk
Flight Deck:
568 Battles and 628 Free Missions
3632 total custom missions online!
TIE-TC225 has been fixed by the TAC office.
Praetorian Orders:
-participate in the August competitions (scroll down);p.
-post on the Prae (and other) MB- the person who posts the most or is most influential in promoting discussion will earn the Prae Medal of Communication (MoC) for the month!
-Monthly flying requirements are in place: It's a mandatory requirement to fly at least one battle or four free missions a month, I will allow you to fly MP matches in place of the missions if you wish (I'm easy to work with usually);p.
*note: Ignore the recruitment orders until after we set our own squadron citations record of 500 citations! ;p.
-Recruit, our numbers are fairly steady: however, if you know of any exemplary pilots who meet our requirements feel free to let me know about them. Remember our requirements for being accepted to take the Prae trials are the rank of LCM with 400 FCHG; however, for a full status Prae it's still CM with at least 500 FCHG.
http://praetorian.rawx.net/join.php (the only exception to this rule I'm allowing is former Prae's who served more than three months; however, they must still have the min required FCHG of 500). We are an elite squadron after all.
-work on improving your own personal FCHG levels- remember we do have a few squadron specific rewards related to this! ;p.
For every 10 squadron citations you earn for Prae I will recommend you for a Imperial Security Medal (ISM).
