As lines become dots again, the Imperial-II Class Star Destroyer Challenge finally arrives home. High Admiral Daniel Bonini, on the bridge, orders: “Comms (not you, La’an), signal the Sovereign... request a note be sent to Grand Admiral Rapier of our arrival, and prepare my shuttle“.
Several minutes later, as the TIE Corps Commander enters the fleet command hall on the Sovereign, with Grand Admiral Rapier already present, HA Daniel promptly salutes: “Sir, the exercise has been completed.”
- Excellent – replies the Fleet Commander – COMM (that’s you, La’an), request Sov Command to open a channel to the fleet, so HA Daniel can present his report.
The projected image of the TIE Corps Commander appears on every room of every TIE Corps vessel, reaching all officers.
- My fellow officers, Raise the Flag is now complete. The fight was fierce, and very hard on all of us, and although they certainly were required to earn this until the end, it is my pleasure to announce that the Imperial-II Class Star Destroyer Warrior has prevailed in the exercise, and is now officially the Flagship of the TIE Corps. My most sincere congratulations go to High Admiral Frodo March and his crew, who gathered all the strength they could possibly muster, to defeat the no less deserving ISD Hammer, who also managed an unprecedented score in the history of this competition. Together, these two ships comprise the elite of the TIE Corps, and they all deserve our recognition and respect for their doings.
The TCCOM continues:
- The victory of the ISD Warrior would not be possible if it weren’t for the amazing efforts of Theta Squadron, which is now the new Escort Squadron for the TIE Corps Commander. La’an, you’re stuck with me again… Many were the pilots who impressed the fleet with their doings, but there was one who stood above all. I’d like to specially congratulate General Pickled Yoda, the newest Top Gun of the TIE Corps, and my new personal wingman. Yado, I expect you in the Challenge cantina so you can learn how to play : ‘haaaave you met Dan?’. What are wingmen for, anyway… Please check the score board for the top units and pilots, and the titles and awards they achieved in this exercise…

- And there you have it, gentlemen, the top scorers and awards for this exercise. High Admiral March, please prepare the Warrior for my arrival. For the time being, I’ll leave BOTini to take care of things on the Challenge for me…no, there’s no way I’ll send BOTini to the Warrior instead… that simply ain’t happening… or is it? I digress. Grand Admiral Rapier, sir, fleet status report: ready for battle!
