From Typhoon Squadron CMDR COL Jagged Fell III:

Since his last promotion, CM Marlore Julren has flown 141 single player missions, earned 45 Legions of Skirmish, participated in 7 different competitions, and set 2 mission high scores.

But those are just the numbers, he is also an active participant in the Typhoon Squadron chat, and hardly a week or two go by when he doesn't just send me a "hey, how are you doing today" DM. He is always a positive presence in the Squadron and club at large and cheers and encourages all in our efforts and successes.

I am so happy he is in my Squadron and it gives me great pleasure to recommend his promotion to Captain in the TIE Corps of the Emperor’s Hammer.

Congratulations, CPT Marlore Julren!

Pilots of the TIE Corps, TIE Corps Exercise: Squadron (Re)Mobilization 8 has come to a close. I hope all of you who participated in this years event enjoyed yourselves and found the tiers entertaining!

ReMoblization is a competition that pits the squadrons against themselves, ticking off tiers. This years we have a host of squadrons sat on 46 tiers completed (Scorpion, Sin & Tempest) and this may change as the memes are graded - please bare with us on this front as it's a substantial pile for Plif to work through!

As always, many thanks to HA Pickled Yoda for putting together our scoreboard and also this year thanks to HA Plif for grading all of the memes!

Next up on the calendar is Raise the Flag 2026 which is slated for September 2026!

Update for Commendation of Excellence eligibility

HA Turtle Jerrar

Effective 1 July 2026, the Commendation of Excellence (CoE) may be awarded to members for specific wiki-editing activities.

With the Encyclopaedia Imperia wiki now serving as a primary repository for Emperor's Hammer knowledge, it's time that we incentivize high-quality wiki editing activities. A fleet-wide commendation, the CoE has traditionally been used to recognize the creation of official Emperor's Hammer web sites. This was extended in 2020 to include the creation of applications that implement EH-provided APIs. Today's extension of CoE elgibility criteria provides members the opportunity to be recognized for content creation on the wiki that is generally analogous to the days of custom web site creation. The criteria specifically recognizes creation and/or maintenance of what we're calling an article collection - purposeful collections of wiki articles beyond mere edits/creation of single pages.

Members may review the award criteria and implementing guidance on the new Wiki Editing Guide under Commendation of Excellence award criteria.

The existing criteria for award of the CoE also remains in place.

It is my honor and privilege to recommend LCM Craness Regihill with this career advancement opportunity within the TIE-Corps. For the Lieutenant Commander's dedication within the EHTC, I cannot recommend enough, this next step on the chain.
A strong pilot right out of the gate, on to his current leadership role as Flight Leader of Rho Squadron. It all hasn't fallen deaf on an old pirate's ears. Rho Squadron is fortunate to have Craness as part of its family.
I hereby recommend a promotion from Lieutenant Commander to the rank of Commander, with due haste.

Congratulations, CM Craness Regihill!

From Battlegroup II BGCOM AD Alexandre Morgan:

Mack Udar holds himself - and his new squadron - to a very high standard. In the six months since his last promotion, he has merited himself five Bronze Star medals and one Silver Star - an absolutely outrageous performance that has impressed his leadership and colleagues. During that time frame, he flew hundreds upon hundreds of Legion simulation engagements, hosted and participated in many different morale improvement exercises, studied hard for Imperial University courses, kept his uniform in date, and much more.
For his self-distinguishing activity and performance, I am proud to recommend Mack Udar be promoted to the rank of Major and be afforded all rights, privileges, and responsibilities entailed.

Congratulations, MAJ Mack Udar!

From Battlegroup II BGCOM AD Alexandre Morgan:

Since his last promotion, Tiran Marr has continued to excel as a contributor to and leader in his squadron, his battlegroup, and the TIE Corps at large. In that time span, he has flown and completed 300 Legion of Skirmish simulation engagements, passed eleven Imperial University courses, supported the Corps culture with a successful ReMob warm-up fiction competition, and earned six monthly merit medals. His continued dedication to the cause emphasizes him as a strong asset to the group, and a real weapon in the fight against the enemies of the Emperor's Hammer.
With perspective of his contributions over the past ten months, I am proud to recommend that Tiran Marr be promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel and be afforded all rights, privileges, and responsibilities entailed.

Congratulations, LC Tiran Marr!
