Eagle Squadron, the TIE Corps' only X-Wing unit, is in need of a new CMDR. If you are interested in the position please drop me a email or a DM on Discord and we can discuss the position and it's requirements.

CPT Jaxx "Hijacker" Nassin has been appointed to the Squadron Executive Officer (SQXO) position in Firebird Squadron. Good luck in your new role!
From Lambda Squadron CMDR GN Genie:
In the past six months, Wolve has claimed 307 victories in space (LoC) and has survived 374 skirmishes (LoS).
In addition, he has flown thousands, that's right, thousands of missions (SP) for Lambda Squadron, claiming first place for the annual TIE Corps SP Killboards. He has been invaluable in his contribution to our TCIB, Squadron Remob, Imperial Storm and RtF efforts throughout the year.Furthermore, he oversaw the commissioning of the Hammer Portrait that was prepared by Newt.
He often gives colour to our discord with his humour and is responsible for keeping the Wookiee Pens clean as he tirelessly vacuums the entire Lambda quarters with his Henry Dyson 2000 vacuum.For that and a lot more, I recommend Wolve Excelsior Berkana for the rank of Captain!
Congratulations, CPT Wolve Excelsior Berkana!
[Dax's XvT Ladder Tournament](https://tc.emperorshammer.org/combat.php?id=203 has been announced, a chance to defeat the treacherous Rebel Alliance once again as we did decades ago. Follow the link to the Combat Event for more details. For the Empire!
General Jarek La'an will be stepping down from Epsilon CMDR shortly, as mentioned in my previous report. I have had a few pilots ask about the position, however I'd like to take this opportunity to extend the application process up until the end of January (31st).
If you are interested in the position please drop me a email or a DM on Discord and we can have a chat about the position and it's requirements. The successful candidate will need to complete SM/5 (either previously or ASAP) which can be accessed here: https://tc.emperorshammer.org/university.php?id=204

Battlestats is hosting another Week of War, where clubs will play each other in 1v1 through 5v5 dogfights in Star Wars Squadrons. All pilots are encouraged to play, whether casual or competitive! This round will go from February 3 - 12.
All matches are to be organized at the BSC Discord server.
The top four pilots (by rating) who play at least 10 games for the EH club in BSC will earn an IS-GW, IS-SW, IS-BW, and IS-CW, respectively. Pilots with at least 10 wins will also earn an ORA. A DFC will be granted instead of an IS-GW for the top pilot if they have at least 3 more wins than losses.

From Thunder Squadron CMDR MAJ LegionX:
Bonebolt has been with us in the TIE Corps for roughly 2 months and has accomplished a great deal within not only Thunder Squadron, but with the Imperial University. He has also taken up the mantle of Thunder's SQXO and continues to impress with his academic advancements while working to upkeep the squadrons wiki pages (and helping create personal pilot pages) as well as take up professorship for 2 courses in the IU. Such dedication should not go unnoticed, therefore I am recommending LT Bonebolt to the rank of Lieutenant Commander.
Congratulations, LCM Bonebolt!
From Raven Squadron CMDR CM Atashi Rain:
Over the past 9 months, LCM LQC-75-3 has played a pivotal role in Inferno - from Flight Leader to stepping in to run the Squadron with a whopping 96 SP missions and 87 LoCs during this time! We are proud to have him represent us here in Raven Squadron, and it is my deep honour to recommend his promotion to CM. Congratulations Pilot - I look forward to serving with you going forward.
Indeed, congratulations, CM LQC-75-3!
The Training Office is proud to announce the release of a new feature of the Imperial University – Qualifications. Similar to real-life degrees, qualifications will allow pilots to be recognized for their completion of a specific set of courses within a specific discipline. The following qualifications are currently available, but we will be adding more in the coming weeks and months:
These are the first of many, with the Training Office already working on a number of other subjects and on a higher level of qualification that will cover broader subject areas and signify true mastery of their respective fields. We hope you enjoy this new addition to the Imperial University academic system!
Huge thanks for this goes out to the Internet Office Staff, especially FA Turtle Jerrar, who were instrumental in implementing our vision.
