-==Beta Squadron Weekly Report==-
Report # 52
March 26, 2017
-==Intro/CMDR Rant==-
We've got just under a week left in the month, and the big news this week is our numbers increased by two pilots. A big shout-out to COL Blackheart and SL OberSteiger who join us from Theta Squadron and the Daedalus, respectively. Welcome to the squadron!
I'll be traveling later this week attending the wedding of a friend so I'll be (more or less) offline from Friday through next Tuesday. You can still hit me up via email or Telegram but I'll be a bit slower to respond than normal. My next WSR will come along on April 9th. Try not to break anything too badly while I'm gone and clean up the alcohol stains before I get back.
Now, on to the Tale of the Tape.
-==Squadron News==-
* A big welcome to COL Blackheart who joins our squadron from Theta aboard the ISD Warrior. Welcome to Beta and to the Hammer!
* SL OberSteiger graduated from training on the Daedalus and has been assigned aboard Beta and the Hammer. Welcome aboard!
* No winner at our Target Identification competition, as I didn't receive any entries. Hopefully we'll get some entries this week! Full details are below.
* After a very quiet month, we had a flurry of communications activity this week. At this stage COL Blackheart leads this month's PotM by a scant one point lead. Will he retain the lead or will Golbez or Kyle catch him to bring home the Iron Star? Stay tuned to find out!

Target Identification
As a STRIKE squadron, all pilot in Beta Squadron must have the ability to identify a target based on what is sometimes partial info from the Intelligence Division. Each week in the WSR, a picture of a particular target will be included in that WSR. The first member of the squadron to reply back with the correct name of the target (which can be a person, ship or location) wins an IS-BR. Overall winner for the month will get an IS-SR.
To participate, log into the
TC site, and click on the link below. The database will track how long from when you first clicked the link below to when you submitted the answer, so there won't be any advantage to whomever completes it in the closest time to the WSR being sent, but whomever completes it in the shortest amount of time correctly.
Last week's winner (and answer): No submissions
* TIE Corps Propaganda Video: Create a video for the purposes of recruiting new blood into the TC! Video will be uploaded to COL Impulse's YouTube channel. Can have any content (gameplay, screenshots, posters, custom rendering, etc.) that you wish. Submissions should be uploaded to YouTube and the links emailed to COL Impulse. Iron Stars are up for grabs!
