< Salute, pilots from Wing X, Wing Commander Domi , Commodore TBA (¿?) and last but not least TIE Corps Commander Jarek La'an >

Welcome to this, my fourth Weekly Report for my beloved Squadron, the mighty Tempest! The Mighty Tempest, "The Riders on the Storm".

Yet another week of decent flying amounts (at least from... ONE of you... ¬¬) but not enough yet to provide us some shiny ISs at the end of the month I fear. Splendid communications, as usual. Me making fun of Dan again on my NUTS history, what else. And comps! comps! comps! comps everywhere! For you to go on shortage of silly excuses to not do stuff as fast as possible.

Then there's the end of "Dempsey's Music Video Mania" with yet another rain of shinies for The Riders, another mind challenge from your deranged CMDR, EH winning last XWA WoW thanks to him (stupid humility not allowed among our ranks! :-P), Vitaru and his cork oaks... Sergeyli the LCM and his dancing performances whenever all vodka is over... could you ask for more?

Easy one: NO! And if you can it's not my fault for we do not support pr0n here!

I.) A horse, a horse! My kingdom for a horse!! (aka. Squadron News)

Ok, come on, come on wherever you are and meet the young LCM who fell from a star! Nahh, we wish. The guy didn't fall from a star unless you consider one of our infamous Wing X Cantina tables to be shiny enough. The thing is that our own Sergeyli, Tempest 3-2, was promoted to Lt. Commander (LCM) last week due to his good activity, mantained for months since he returned to the Fleet after having assassinated the last Executive Officer and...

       <LC Zós> ? What is it, Commander? Ah, it was not that? But I heard... oh, but that's not funny enough... ok, ok...

       And for all that stuff I was kind enough to mention above, he has been made a Lt. Commander of pilots within the TIE Corps. Therefore, the rest of you, feel free to start using his extra credits, either with or without his permission to provide yerselves reasons enough to congratulate him. Splendid work, Lt. Commander Sergeyli, splendid work. ^^

       <LCM Sergeyli> Help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.....

Know ye all that The Emperor's Hammer Strike Fleet has won the last XWA Week of War. With such incredible levels of participation (ME) and so many battles to relate (3) what could I tell you that you can't figure out already? But hell! Even if it's obvious that a single EHer (let alone if he's a TC pilot) could put the rest of SW gaming clubs to shame, I would appreciate some company there; you'd get the glory, the shinies (LoCs and DFCs, don't forget!), the true feeling of compiting with an alive being and not with...

With THIS...

       And the lag! What about our good old-time friend the lag? Don't be expectant anymore! Take [MP/2] and [AMP] IWATS Courses TODAY and help me there to save the Galaxy from... from... errr... itself. Become an EH 1337 and feel proud of it while you turn everybody else to fancy floating confetti! ^_^

At last! At last those old MWEs from September and October '08 were processed and some overdue medals awarded. You see... we're so damned splendid that getting medals on present time is just NOT enough for us! We summon shinies from the PAST. And now is just a matter of learning the spell to invoke medals for FUTURE accomplishments. Then will come the phantom medals, the cloak-device medals, the no-way medals... all them undeserved of course, yet quite handful as good excuses for one of those crazy parties that usually end with everybody out of the airlock thanks to WC's rage. So far, that's what we got:

       x 2 for your weekly source of despair, aka. CMDR.

       x 2 for Tempest 2-2, Lt. Colonel Murleen (keeper of the only "Collie-brew" stash still available... available for himself, that is)

       for our Flight III Leader, Commander Vitaru (forever struggling against cork oaks playing the Paul Bunyan role)

       for Tempest 3-2, Lt. Commander Sergeyli (if you feel in the need of some trouble he'll provide)

"Dempsey's Music Video Mania" EH-wide competition is finally over, and those of you who demonstrated your true love for glam rock, cheesy pop and other counterculture specimens have recieved what was due for your exceptional displaying of mind waste. Our most sincere condol... congrats to those Riders who participated in such an interesting event: COL Daniel Bonini, CM John T. Clark and CM Vitaru. And now, if you think I'm gonna detail below all medals that were awarded you better think twice; I'm bored after the last news entry and Section III.a) is there for something dammit! :-P

The second edition of our own Tempest-only competition involving mind challenges for you to demonstrate the average speed of your neuronal synapsis, "I think therefore I lose" has just begun! Here you have the thread:

      ...

     The second edition of our own Tempest-only competition involving mind challenges for you to demonstrate the average speed of your neuronal synapsis, "I think therefore I lose" has just finished! :-P True story... Two e-mails on my inbox, both marked as having arrived at 03/10 00:00 GMT +1, both with the right answer... I mean: NOT EVEN A €~{#¬"·%{!"$ MINUTE AFTER STARTING TIME! Now I'm scared I tell you; maybe I should better request my transfer to the Phoenix while I still can since doing so from the insides of a black sack at the bottom of the Chal's garbage compactor is gonna be a little more difficult... ¬¬

     Oh well... I'll make the good answer public and announce the 2 winners of this edition by e-mail as soon as I'm done with this report. -__-U

( Spoilers! Let me ask you something: do you like riding bicycles? Then you gotta play THIS game! xD

And today, also some wise words CM Vitaru provided us on his Flight III report two weeks ago:

"Next Friday will not be your lucky day. 
As a matter of fact, you don't have a lucky day this year"

Darn it! Such levels of foresight are just impressive on a FL of mine for those words came attached to my Tempest CMDR official reassignment e-mail... :-P )

II.) On how to obliterate a starfighter with your knight lance® (aka. Squadron Status and On-going Competitions)

W0h0h0h0h0h0!!! Seems that Colonel Nav'ric Trow, our Tempest 1-4 comrade, had some ideas on his own (not wise, not wise, Colonel; please remember to spread it was your CMDR's idea when you're done or else >:P) for the creation of a new website for Tempest Squadron, capable of containing all bollocks-data already there and even adding some automatization to the equation instead loads of HTML standing crap. Stay tuned, gentlemen, for this is promising! ^_^

Yet another weekly Tempest website update, as usual. Don't forget to check the site often as one of your primary sources of useful information and bollocks of all kinds. All complaints are to be sent directly to Vice Admiral Viper Pred, Strategic Operations Officer, with the subject: "Sir, I hereby request your assistance for my new uploaded uniform to be approved. Please find it at your approvals queue where I submitted it; it's the pink one with the Paris Hilton pattern."

And here, gentlemen, you have the current status of our 2 ongoing monthly competitions! Only one of you flying... none of you taking new IWATS Courses... Nice! Remind me to beat you properly with CMDR's boot® next time we meet. WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!!! Do you wanna be as the rest of the Fleet activity-wise or something? ~ >.-F

Tempest Pilot of the Month - March '09

LCM Dunta Polo - 30 missions (and Tempest Pilot of the Week on 03/01 - 03/08!)

Tempest Student of the Month - March '09

...not yet assigned into the Squadron though...

"TAC's citation hunt"!! This is pure epic, let alone your chance of getting a nice IS-SW or even IS-GW for yerselves! Get up to 20 NEW Battle Citations for The Riders on the Storm for the silver thingie or up to 40 no less for the goldie one. You know the mechanics, gentlemen: Go HERE, find what battles are we closer to get the citation (we're 9 pilots so we're gonna need a minimum of 6 having flown any given battle) and... you know... FLY THEM!!! I'm counting on you and your commitment to Tempest Squadron for this one! :-D

Right now we've a total of 0 new Battle Citations for March. Not good. You better start fixing this, and quick! >:-P

II.a) Squadron Competitions

Tempest Pilot of the Month - March '09
Details HERE
Feel free to send me pilotfiles as if there'd be no tomorrow and you might bore me to the point of me reccing a pointy IS-BW to beat you with it. A minimum of 10 missions for the weekly IS-BW and an absolut minimum of 40 for the monthly one. Not to mention the "Tempest Pilot of the Month" title, which you shall use with pride and caution if you don't want to get yourselves killed.

Tempest Student of the Month - March '09
Details HERE
How was that thing your mom was yelling at you all day? Ah, yes... STUDY!!! Monthly IS-BR up for true swots out there! Already passed IWATS Courses count as long as you manage to beat your former score.

I think therefore I lose (II)
Details HERE
Basically: you have a riddle, supposedly a brain, and that's all you need to help me to reveal the secrets of the Universe. Those that are important at least like how to escape from a jungle full of cannibals and naives stupid to the point of not knowing about their 2 miles-away neighboors, or how to build silly non-symmetric pyramids with numbers. Gotta love this bi-weekly comp.! ;D

II.b) Wing / Ship Competitions

Wing X Pilot of the Week/Month
Details HERE
As usual, gents! Our almighty WC, Colonel Domi, will award a bronze shinie in a weekly basis and a silver one per month to whoever demonstrates he's perfectly capable of making the rest of us looking as worse as possible. Fly missions, take IWATS, participate in other comps, drink... and well... drink. Everything counts! Especially to drink. :-D

Challenge Top Gun
Details HERE
Similar to 'Wing X PotM' one, but this time as a flying-only. Colonel Domi will backstab the one whose flight record dares to be the best on a given month with no less than an IS-SW. Interesting given that rumour someone has been spreading around that we're actually... PILOTS. Don't ya think? ;-)

II.c) Emperor's Hammer / TIE Corps / TC Battlegroups Competitions

Oh! Oh my good Lord!! But if I'm going to repeat some TC site info here. Please, have mercy!! :-P

SP Ace of the TIE Corps, March 2009
Details HERE
Simple, pretty simple: fly as hell, make your CMDR's life miserable BSFing your stuff and earn medals for it. IS-GW, IS-SW and IS-BW for the 3 best ranking players at the Single Player Kill Board. What else do you need to fill your IDline with useless titles as myself? No MP division yet; maybe they're still fixing MP stuff at the new database. But don't panic, my bloodlusty subdits, for it will be there again sooner or later. >:-)

TACcy Quotes
Details HERE
See, the TACcy tends to release a bunch of random chosen words making some sort of composition all together. And she calls this creature a "TAC Report". Read those "reports", find the movie quote lying there and e-mail FA Dempsey as quickly as you can with your answer! This competition has been running for many more months than I can remember so I think it will be run again no matter what, despite there's no database entry yet. Well, now as soon as you see a TAC report around you know what to do. ;-)

TACcy Speed Test
Details HERE
Bi-weekly competition involving flying speed. XWA/XvT FREE mission to be announced on each TAC report for you to finish it up as quickly as you can. Fly on Easy, turn on ingame cheats, mind only about Primary Goals. Emulate the bloody Roadrunner! WHATEVER!!! But complete the mission in record time and send your pilotfile DIRECTLY TO TAC, NOT CMDR. IS-SW for those fast enough to lose their pants on their way plus IS-BW for whoever happens to fly faster than TAC herself (and steal her pants? no, don't think so... :-P).

TAC's beta testing madness
Details HERE
Seems the mad Lady TACcy has been arranging a 20-mission monster battle from the deep to punish our fates all this time. XWA-TC: "Battle of Lykos" is its name. To testfly it will be your duty. IS-GW/SW for top bug submitters + IS-BW for whoever comes to be suicidal enough to fly it, let alone IS-GR/SR/BR for best 3 reviews will be your reward. It will be tough. It will steal your time. And as true TC pilots... you gotta love it!!

The TAC's citation hunt
Details HERE
A Fleet-wide competition involving Squadron battle citations! IS-SW for everybody if you perform good, IS-GW for everybody if you perform BETTER!! And some nice IS-GR for good old COL Domi as well if we do what we're going to do: to WIN this one! Got it? GOT IT?!!!

DJB's Inter-Club Training Event (Multiplayer!!)
Details HERE
Let's see... What would be the best way of dealing with our "new" Dark Jedi Brotherhood (DJB, former rDB) friends in order to show 'em our willing to cicatrize old injuries between our clubs? What about sending them all to hell via MP while punishing their prides by the book? >;-D All Saturdays 24/7 on Undernet #outerrim IRC channel!

III.) NO!! Performances involving the infamous trio (beer-holoTV-chips) don't count for anyone but CMDR here!

IV.) Do it or DO IT. Don't even dare to try! (aka. Squadron Standing Orders)

1. Fly AT LEAST a mission/battle from the Compendium!!! You're a pilot, not a wardrobe, and this is important!
2. Take an IWATS. And if you actually learn something maybe you're doing miracles too! ;-D
3. Fly some MP. Plenty of comps. to do it. If only you could feel The Power of the Pwnage Side©®!!
4. Drink; as a truly Challengite this is a must to perform. If only you could feel The Power of the Daze Side of the Booze©®!!
5. Participate in some competition if possible. Tempest is here to trample & impale any opposition hence our nickname!
6. Contact your Flight Leader or Squadron Commander at least once a week!! This is BUT VERY important in order to mantain your arse within the roster. CMDR may well have the nasty mania of kicking mute people out of the airlock...
7. Be always loyal to the TIE Corps Fleet, then the ISDII Challenge and Wing X, then Tempest.
8. Kill any rebel scumb, dirty smuggler or pathetic pirate on sight and with a smile on your face. Cleaning 'da house!
9. Have fun doing all this stated above! Now this one is a f****** order; if you don't accomplish with this one you're really doing nothing. Go away and make something better with your life like having a pathetic RL job, trying for your wife to not cheat you with a REAL PILOT... ahem...
10. It would be sooo simetric and perfect for you to have a 10th order... but you haven't. :-P

Note on order 4: if you can't actually realize this IS NOT a RL way to go you should request transfer to the Redemption or something... ¬_¬

V.) Someone flew over the Ewok's Nest (aka. CMDR's Corner)

Seems that the mighty Tempest Squadron, The Riders on the Storm, has been bestowed today which is maybe the most higherl assignation a single Squadron can hope to get onboard the Imperial II-class Star Destroyer Challenge, something to be proud of: extended patrol duty on some unknown sector of space, long forgotten by G0d's mercy and so far from Aurora that not even the ever-lost ISDII Subjugator has ever been there...

The full Squadron, 9 super-silly-overpowered craft we have learnt to love together, exit from their last hyperspace jump in what seemed the most unsuccessful search for intelligent live beings you could ever imagine (except maybe Coruscant and Zós' Secret Destillery onboard the 'Chal' itself)... until now! They're not alone in this sector!

<LCM Dunta Polo> By Palpatine's sun creme! Look there, people, a Calamari Cruiser!

<COL Dan> And displaying a non-Imperial IFF. H0H0H0H0! Imperial Xmas. is gonna be a little bit anticipated this year! >:D----

<CM Vitaru> But we should contact them before taking any... -unpolite- course of action I'd say.

<COL Dan> Oh, come on...

<CM Vitaru> What's the word, Zós?

<LC Zós> Ummm... well... you see, it *SEEMS* a Calamari Cruiser from here...

<COL Trow> What the?! Sir! It's a bloody MC-80, I could recognize one of those stupid flying cigars 20 clicks afar! :-P

<LC Zós> We cannot be sure, Colonel. Seems a MC-80 from here, indeed, but... what if it is some sort of experimental capital ship from some unknown race featuring some unknown defensive system? Unnecessary risk and besides, we should obtain more info on this before doing something stupid.

<CPT Alphafoxtrot1> No way! It's obvious we can level that thing to stardust with so much firepower on our side. Don't tell me now that I fully loaded my MIS warhead launchers for nothing!

<LCM Sergeyli> Yeah... I'd suggest the classic "hello-we're-Imps-and-you're-screwed" game in a normal situation, but I somehow understand our CMDR's point of view.

<CM Clark> Why you!! You're playing the "sucking-arse" game instead since you got that last promo and everybody knows! >:P

<LC Murleen> Hey John, not necessary to be so rude with the Lt. Commander. What if what Zósite says comes to be true and we see ourselves involved in a suicidal approach all of a sudden? Besides, are we SURE that's a Calamari Cruiser?

<LCM Dunta Polo> Now that you mention it... its hull configuration looks rare and chaotic to me...

<COL Dan> BUT! BUT! It's a Calamari thing dammit! It's supposed to be rare and chaotic in its design! It comes with the model! >:_____D

<LC Zós> Dan, my friend, we all know you've been high on the fumes since that A-Wing fled from your "Astra Fighter" in the heat of the battle 4 days ago. Calm down.

<COL Dan> You had to mention it. Your wickedness really knows no limits, Zós... :____{

<CM Vitaru> So, what about requesting them to identify themselves?

<LC Zós> Not so quickly, Commander! Maybe that is exactly what they want so they can allocate our channel to interfere it.

<COL Trow> And what would be the point of doing so? There's the... errr... "Cruiser wannabe". Here are we... not many more things out there to fool us with.

<LC Zós> That's what they want you to think, Colonel! Such calm is not normal in the surroundings of a Cruiser (if it's a Cruiser). Where's its fighters defense screen?

<CM Clark> Defense screen? To defense themselves from what? We've just hypered in and they weren't in the middle of a skirmish before so...

<LC Zós> YOU say they weren't! Who knows? Up to 4 or 5 full Squadrons of unknown starfighters could be waiting for us on their Hangar and ready to launch. Let alone their unkown alien technology.

<CPT Alphafoxtrot1> But if they're Calamari! And everybody knows those squids are all rebel biased.

<LC Zós> They don't necessary have to be Calamari since we cannot even be sure if that ship is a MC-80. Rebels you say! That renders everything worse, for this could perfectly be yet another of those ambushes those cowards like to provide us every now and then.

<CM Vitaru> So we cannot be sure if they are Rebels I take...

<LC Zós> Exactly! Only one thing's for sure: they want us to think they're Rebels and therefore they're using something resembling a MC-80 to fool us into that way of thinking. Then again, we cannot be sure if the ship was abandoned already for some reason. What's what our sensors read?

<LC Murleen> Well, according to this information the ship is fairly populated right now and...

<LC Zós> Splendid! Now they've just interfered our sensors for we to think what they want us to think. Things are going worse and worse as we talk.

<LCM Sergeyli> Maybe it would be better if we just...

<CM Vitaru> Yeah, it would be the best choice in order to prevent...

<CM Clark> And look those engines; my money is in they have just realized we could be wise enough to leave the place and are coming for us... :___|

<COL Trow> Spooky, that's not like those coward Calamaris...

<CPT Alphafoxtrot1> No problem, we're still in time and my flight computer has just finished processing the return coordinates.

<LC Zós> Ok, gentlemen, jump on my mark!

<COL Dan> I... I cannot...

<LC Zós> 3...

<COL Dan> ...believe...

<LC Zós> 2...

<COL Dan> ...impossible...

<LC Zós> 1...

<COL Dan> ...unbehaving... UNBEHAVING I TELL YOU!!

<LC Zós> 0... Let's go!!! ^_^

The full Squadron except COL Dan's TIE Defender, the "Astra Fighter", hyper out. About a minute later, and yelling things that could put an Inquisitor to shame and a JAG to tremble, Tempest 1-2 jumps as well. Meanwhile, at the bridge of CRS "Joyful Meadow"...

<COL Wedge XXVII> Oh, Jesus... I just thought we were all fried, Sir...

<AD Nemo> Tell that to me... and thinking that almost all our fighters were obliterated a week ago... why those madmen and their 3 T/Ds, 3 T/As and... hell! and 3 MISs decided to go away instead melting this ship into some floating saucepan of sorts goes beyond me... 0__ou

A couple of days after, back onboard the Challenge...

<COL Domi> 0____+U... ZÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓÓS!!!!!!!!!!
