 Diamondback squadron weekly report #73
 LC Gidda, 07/20/2003


- SQUADRON NEWS -

  • Sorry if this report is a bit late. Two days ago I've formatted my HDD and the reinstall procedure has been a bit longer than expected.

  • Sovereign Squadron League: Diamondback has beaten Mem in XWA and XvT divisions and we advanced to semi-finals. We lost against Praetorian in TIE division but we exit with honor having lost against one of the best TIE squadrons in the Fleet and with a 200K points disadvantage (HS was 210K points). We have met all our objectives for the quarter-finals and now we can concentrate on XvT and XWA divisions. Our new "enemies" are  Odin squadron (Grey Wolf) for XvT and Omega Squadron (Sovereign) for XWA. Beware of Omega, their score in the last round was better than ours. Read the Competitions Report for all the semi-finals details!
  • The Intrepid Activity competition is still on and thanks to CPT Tvan'Oris and LCM Zhaim Jifarr we're still in first position. However I would like to see some participation in this event also from other pilots. Remember that you can earn points for almost every activity: graphics, fiction, mission creation, IWATS courses and of course for completing custom battles or flying multiplayer melees.

  • Our Wing Commander is having PC problems but she should be back tomorrow. CM Crimson Fury is A-WC during Phantom's leave.

  • Congratulations to Zhaim Jifarr on passing another IWATS course with a score of 100%. This time the exam was XML.
  • MSE medals for the month of June have been finally awarded! Tvan, Derek and your Commander got ISMs. Zhaim received a Palpatine Crescent. Way to go!
  • TAC has released my newest XWA mission: XWA-Free #105, Strike at Hunkur IV. Diamondback squadron is once again the star of the mission :-)
