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,

I've been able to release two new patches for X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter: the TIE Vanguard
and the B-Wing.
Both come with additional Flight group colours for
the EH, ASF and respectively the DB for the TIE Vanguard and the IW for the
B-Wing. The T/D and MIS patches have also been updated lately and now work
together with eachother and the B-W and T/V. Give
them all a run once :)

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.

FICTION 8 POINTS - Up to 8 points depending on the length and quality of the
submission. All entries must be in .doc format. The submission must also have
a title GRAPHICS 8 POINTS - Up to 8 points depending on the length and
quality of the submission. All entries must be in .jpg,
.gif or .png format. The submission must be zipped

awarded depending on the quality of the page - it must be TC related. Page

For each mission completed (BSF confirmed) including those in battles, the
pilot earns 1 point. An Extra point will be awarded for each Mission High
Score. 1 x Number of missions in Battle points for a Battle
High Score. SHIP PATCHS 20 POINTS - The idea is to create several ship
patches that install 5 different enemy craft of a particular theme at once on
the same 5 slots for each pack. 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. (Possibility of Awarding first Medals of Engineering
if enough submissions) CUSTOM BATTLE 16 POINTS -
Depending on the quality and originality of the battle, the pilot may earn up
to 16 points. The battle must have at least 4 missions with briefings and be
relatively bug free. Submissions must be zipped. CUSTOM MISSION 4 POINTS -
Depending on the quality and originality of the mission, the pilot may earn
up to 4 points. The mission must have a briefing and be relatively bug free.
Submissions must be zipped. FCHG/CR ADVANCEMENT 5 (FCHG)/10 (CR) POINTS -
Each time you advance in either your Fleet Commander's Honour
Guard rank or in your Combat Rating, you will gain the appropriate number of
points. ONLINE VICTORY 3 POINTS - For every Legion of Combat medal earned in
an official TC online event, the pilot gains 3 points. Also for every
Distinguished Flying Cross earned in an official TC online event, the pilot
gains 5 points. ONLINE PARTICIPATION 1 POINT - If a pilot takes part in an
official TC online event, but gains no LoCs, he/she
earns 1 point. TRIVIA QUESTIONS 5 POINTS - These points may be gained
submitting no less than 10 SW-related questions with answers. Submissions
must be zipped IWATS 4 - 8 POINTS – 4 points For each IWATS Completed. 8
points for each IWATS created if it is approved and released during the
duration of the comp. SQUADRON CITATIONS 15 POINTS - For each new Citation
that a Squadron gains for the first time, the Squadron earns 15 points. INPR
COMPLETION 3 POINTS - INPRs must be completed in
full. Points will not be gained for completing the INPR prior to the start of
the competition. WEB-HUNT 10/8/4 POINTS - Each week
a new webhunt will be announced. This will involve
either looking for answers on the web for SW questions, or finding something
else on the web. The first person to send in the correct answers/list earns
10 points. The second earns 8. Everyone else who replies with the correct
answers within the week gains 4 points. Avenger Squadron (LC Dax Corrin) will be in charge

Final thoughts-
I want to see Cobra outshine the other
squads in the SC:V, be prepared for me to bug you for activity.
If you see something on the list of approved activities that you are really
good at go to it and prove that Cobras are really the deadliest snake in the
jungle. 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
