Cobra Weekly Report

CMDR/CM Blade/Cobra/Wing XIV/ISD Intrepid

 

CMDRs Rantings-

ALERT ALL PILOTS MAN YOUR SHIPS! That’s right everybody, the time has come to show the rest of the ASF that the Intrepid winning the SC:IV wasn’t a Fluke. Activity is what will get us another win and let us remain Flagship of the ASF. I Know Cobra Squadron will do well and be a force to be reckoned with. If you have an XVT Battle or a TIE Battle that you see you don’t have flown then go and get it done and send me the pilot file asap, if you an idea for a story then write it down and submit it, create missions, take IWATS, almost everything is worth points so get to it Pilots.

Also as this is my first Report of the Year I want to wish everybody a happy New Year. I hope that Cobra goes to great heights this year and all our pilots are covered in glory.

Thanks to my CA, AD Darkhill, I've been able to release two new patches for X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter: the TIE Vanguard and the B-Wing.

LoC system update
22:06 - SA Astatine [jpboyce@indigo.net.au]
The database has been updated to correctly reflect the new LoC system. In addition, the code now also correct calculates the number of addons you have, as opposed to just listing the highest one and your total of victories after it. A similar update has been applied to the display of DFCs too.

Themes can be based on enemy or neutral Systems, Pirate Fleets, and Craft Manufacturers etc. and will install craft of different classes (fighters, transports, freighters, starships or platforms).You can make as many of these ships as you want, also less then 5 - as these can be combined with work of others to make a new pack. You can work together in teams or alone and for each of the TIE Corps platforms. Craft and themes need to be explained in background story/statistics. All craft need to be original, of at least the same quality as those of the game and made by EH members.

I want to hear from everybody as soon as possible just to let me know everybody made it back from leave ok. A short email will do nicely, thanx. That’s all I have for now, Blade out
