Kappa Report # 30 (2001-04-11)
This report was submitted by MAJ Astarosta
Waaay way late report. Sorry, but that test I took was a major challenge for me and I needed some relaxation. So, bring your paperwork over to my jacuzzi :p
Squadron News
-Major big oversized amazing cool groovy enormous funky free-drinks-for-a-year oh my gosh news on Kappa is the impressive achievement of our own Graphics Designer, LCM Tempest. He has written his name on the EH history by creating what will be the image of what the EH is. That logo that Ronin himself picked between several excellent choices, will be the image that will cause fear on all of those that fight against the inevitable supremacy of the Empire, inspire rexpect in all of those who serve us and glory for Ronin and the Emperor. It will be on the hull of our starships and will restore the peace and order to the entire Galaxy.
That you did, Tempie ;)
And by doing so, he was awarded with a GoE, an honor most of us will never reach.
Do I need to say more? You all know what to do.
And make a list, we don't want Tempest to get confused with the amount of drink orderings we'll do with his payement.
-Another amazing project is almost underway, and it got a mention on the EH main news page, by the Roninmaister. LCM Jan Wemmel is almost done with his EH leaflet, and I'm halfway finishing its translation to Spanish.
-Our newcomer Mac dude Dash Riprock has been promoted to LT after submitting his INPR to the database. And he also has a severe case of IWATS compulsion :p. Great job on all those courses passed! And congratulations!! More free beer!! And no, medical experiments will not cease cause you're a LT :p
-Wing II vs Wing V is on!!! We need a major effort to get a victory on this comp!! As the currently bigger squadron in Wing II it is our responsability to contribute to the total score with all of our strenght. We MUST achieve 100% participation. The two battles must be completed before the end of the month. And yes, I rarely say this, but this is a direct order.
-This week's Ol' Roasty's word o' advice: "Live long and prosper. No can do? Well, it's not like anyone actually believes that when I say it. :p"

Squadron Orders
-COL Inkwolf is still cruising for her Chocolate Gungan! Write a story of how the recovery of the gungan was made, or if you are feeling creative, make a FREE-TIE or battle about the crusade. You may win a IS-Silver Wings . Deadline is April 15th, 5 DAYS FROM NOW that is.
- The Wing II Pilot League round 7 is ON!!! A Fly FREE-TIE 106 before 6PM GMT Sunday 15th April, send the file to Algaron and CC me. TOP PRIORITY!!
-The Wing II vs Wing V comp has started!!! There are two battles to be flown before April ends, and so far I had only one submission. WE MUST GET A 100% PARTICIPATION ON THIS!!! Wing V has more pilots, so we all must fly them. Tips for completing them are all around, so there won't be much troubles. Ok, so fly TC-TIE 64 and 65 (both attached) before the end of the month!! EXTREMELY TOP PRIORITY!!!

Miscellaneous
AlliED 1.56
A new AlliED has been released for registered users! It's been a while, but I'm not really sure what has been added because there's no readme file in this version. The map seems to scroll more smoothly, but that's probably just because I'm using Windows 2000 now.
According to the XWA Upgrade site, the new version simply has an additional wireframe for the 8km and 17.6km versions of the Super Star Destroyer.
Find out more about AlliED here: http://homepages.picknowl.com.au/troyd/
Sloth TV
Remember that movie "The Goonies" from the 80s about those kids on a treasure hunt and Chunk's mini-adventure with Sloth? Chunk and Sloth return to battle the evil Sith in this odd Flash Movie.
You can watch it at: http://www.rainbowanimations.com/animations/slothtv3.html
The song in the background later in the movie you can get on Napster if you search for "Duel (or Dual) of the Fates Techno Remix"
Flight Officer promoted to Fleet Admiral
With several recommendations behind him, Flight Officer Admiral Priyum Patel has been promoted to the rank of Fleet Admiral!
New EH Logo
The new Emperor's Hammer logo has been chosen created by Lieutenant Commander Tempest, who has earned the Grand Order of the Empire for his work!
Amendment to Tactical Order #001
It has been brought to my attention that i wasnt clear enough in defining Bug Report.
A Bug Report shall be filed by the Pilot, in the case that he/she skipped a mission during the course of that battle, on the TIECorps.org Battle Board. Reasons attached to BSF's will NOT be considered Bug Reports.
For specific instructions on bug reports, log in to the database and click on the link marked Battle Bug Report Information.
EH Greeting Card Centre (EH:GCC)
I am in need of people to create graphics specifically for use in greeting cards. The kind of graphics i'm looking for should include some sort of message appropriate for greeting card. Some uses of greeting cards on the EH:GCC (http://gcc.emperorshammer.ca) could be, but not limited to:
Challenging another to a contest
Rubbing in a defeat
Sending holiday cheer
Recruiting a non-EH friend
Since the relative lack of choices for EH:GCC graphics, i'm offering a minimum of an ISM per graphic that is chosen to be posted on the EH:GCC. Please submit any graphic submissions, or ideas for the EH:GCC to FA AbsoluteK.
EH WebRing is Working, AGAIN!
After a few hours of bug fixing a certain ex-CA:IO's PHP code, the EH WebRing is now working again. Go visit it at http://webring.emperorshammer.ca, and add any EH sites that aren't on the list.
Graphics course online
The Graphics course is now online. You can check it out at http://www.imperialacademy.org/graphics/. The course professor is CM Daisuke Airyu.
New Command Attaché to the Executive Officer
I (Quake :p) have officially stepped down as Lord Ambassador of the Advanced Guard. However, I have been appointed Command Attaché to Executive Officer, Sector Admiral Kawolski. I will continue to work hard on EH:Vanguard and the new Lord Ambassador will be announced shortly.
Wing III Commander appointed
Many congratulations to Lieutenant Colonel Sequoh Marden who has been appointed as the new WC of Wing III, following the approval of COM/FA Kramer and the Flight Office.
