Welcome to SOO Report #39

There was a lot of movement on the TIE Corps's roster last week. One veteran left us, two new Sub-Lieutenants joined us and 6 rank promotions were done. To round the good news up, General Dunta Polo was awarded the Grand Order of the Emperor for his 6 year tour of duty as Epsilon CMDR. Another big award was handed out this week to MAJ Ulrich Drachen. He earned his fisr Gold Star of the Empire for his restless and exemplary work as CMDR and recruiter for the TIE Corps.

I'm sure everybody read it allready in the Combat Operations Officer's report, but if not here it is again. In the last time in many Tier 1 PvP matches in Star Conflict our pilots only fought against bots and not other players. These matches are no PvP matches and not eligible for a Legion of Combat. But to prevent frustration and waste of time these matches can be reported as PvE match for a Legion of Skirmish. I now that is not what you expect when hitting the "PvP" button, but I think it is the best solution.

I also had to change the rules of TIE Corps on Recon. Bot matches will not count, they give an unfair chance of having very much kills and assists.

The Medals of Communication were handed out for december 2015, congratulations to all babblers. Also the evals are reviewed and 99% of the merit medals awarded, I still miss at least one recommendation, so whoever forgot it, you know what to do.

All in one it was a week full of awards and promotions, once again congratulations to the recipients.

SOO Competitions

TIE Corps on Recon - 2016:

Competition Medals:

- IS-SW/IS-BW for every game mode (weekly)
- IS-GW/IS-SW/IS-BW for 1st, 2nd and 3rd based on the points earned (points from all match types added together for the monthly part!)
- IS-PW/IS-GW/IS-SW for 1st, 2nd and 3rd based on the points earned over the entire year 2016
- IS-GW/SW/BW for 1st, 2nd and 3rd for every game mode based on the points earned over the entire year 2016

Description:

This competition is split up into multiple parts, all based on Star Conflict Multiplayer matches. The different weekly parts are split up based on the different match types Star Conflict is offering.

Here the goals for the 5 different game modes used in this competition:

- Domination/Beacon Hunt (counted seperately): most captured beacons
- PvE/Team Battle (counted seperately): most kills (Assists count as half kills)
- Combat Recon: most kills (Assists count as half kills), killing the Captain gives 2 extra points, surviving as Captain 3 extra points. There are "only" 2 points for the Captain kill, because there is 1 additional point for the kill itself in the calculation.

For the monthly part of the TCoR competition a points system will be used. For each victory in one of the weekly sections of this competition the winner will gain 4 points, second gains 3, third gains 2 and every other participant gains 1 point. Even if only 1,2 or 3 TIE pilots participate in one game mode, the 1st place still gains 4 points, 2nd 3 points and so on.Those points will be added up until the last weekly SOO report of a month and then the monthly winner will be announced based on those points. The points are also used for the calculation of the overall winner of the year.

Every participating pilot that isn't eligible for a medal reward from this competition earns himself an TCoR-activity point for each match type he participated in per week.

10 activity points = IS-BW
50 activity points = IS-SW

After gaining 50 activity points, the pilot's points will be reset to 0.

To make a match count for this competition screenshots of the matches need to be send to the TIE Corps Strategic Operations Officer before the weekly report is released on Sunday. Only one submission per week, match type and pilot will count, even though you might send multiple screenshots to the SOO in case you manage to gain more kills/captures during a week than you've had in the first submission. Only screenshots for victories are allowed!

Everyone that wants to participate in this competition needs to submit screenshots himself. If in one match 2 TIE Corps pilots participated and want a screenshot for that match to count for this competition they BOTH need to send their screenshots to the SOO!

Tie breakers:

- kills for Domination and Beacon Hunt; in case of the same amount of beacons and kills, the assists will be the tie breaker
- Captain kill or survived as Captain in Combat Recon
- pure kills for PvE, Team Battle

Note that PvP matches agains bot-only teams are not eligible.
