Review – A Padawan Faces Her Trials in Marvel’s The High Republic #1
The High Republic is here! And we have our first comic, from writer Cavan Scott (Dooku: Jedi Lost, Star Wars Adventures)! Before we jump in, this story takes place roughly the same time as the first three High Republic novels: Light of the Jedi, A Test of Courage, and the forthcoming Into the Dark. Wouldn’t be a bad idea to at least read Light of the Jedi before diving into this, as a few events are referenced and would be spoiled if you haven’t read the book.

DB COMPETITIONS
|
|
Pimp the Fleets V9.0
Start Date: January 1, 2021
End Date: December 31, 2021
Groups involved: All STO playing DB members
Awards: Cr-Q - Cr-D monthly - BN - GN and Cr-E - Cr-D annual
Description:
Every month I will calculate the donations every DB member did to the EH ingame fleets in STO. With those donation points I will built up rankinglists for each fleet section and an overall rankinglist for each fleet. Awards will be Cr-E for first, Cr-T for second and Cr-Q for third in each section, Cr-A for first, Cr-S for second and Cr-E for third overall in each fleet.
At the end of the year, based on the amount of donations, there will be an annual rankinglist for each section and one for each fleet. Annual awards for each section will be Cr-A/Cr-S/Cr-E for 1st/2nd/3rd, for the winners in each fleet Cr-D/Cr-R/Cr-A for 1st/2nd/3rd.
To better compare the monthly donations to both fleets, the participants will earn overall points for placement in the section ranking lists, 4 points for first, 3 points for second, 2 points for third and 1 point for all other participants in that section. These overall points will be summed up for each member and a ranking list based on these will be used to crown the overall winner for the month. First place in that ranking list will receive the prestigious Cr-D, second a Cr-R, third a Cr-A.
These donation points will be summed up and put into a rankinglist at the end of the year. The annual winner in this rankinglist will receive a Gold Nova, the second placed a Silver Nova and third a Bronze Nova.

CLAN ROSTER
|
|
Hyperion Flight Battle Team
The members of Hyperion are great Captains, accustomed to traveling through Galaxies aboard of all types of ships, whether scientific, exploration or combat. Of vocation of explorers, they are also formidable warriors when the situation requires it, capable of leading battle teams in any situation of crisis that may arise. The adventure is his north, and the recklessness his condition of life.
|
Stingray Battle Team
"Flying is for droids", said a well-known Jedi every time he had to maneuver a battle ship in battle. That will be fine for the Jedi, but not for the Sith. A Sith is able to fly any type of combat ship in any situation, and lose his life in it if is necessary. The members of Stingray are excellent pilots, reckless and lethal. They stand out in training battles as well as in life and death battles. That is your lifestyle, and your combat ship, your home.
|
Sentinel Battle Team
Air, land, sea or space. Any environment is acceptable to these warriors and explorers. They can be excellent foot soldiers, like great admirals in command of large armies, with excellent tactical and strategy sense, or excellent overall vision to manage large navies. As an individual soldier or in command of a battle group, nothing stops them. A member of Sentinel can be what he want, or take any role that the situation requires.

Game Update 6.2.1 is now on PTS!
Game update 6.2.1 is now live on the Public Test Server (PTS) for all subscribers. In this new update, we’ve made improvements to Amplifiers and rebalanced all Uprisings. Before this update goes live, any players interested in testing those changes can head over to the Public Test Server!

The idea is that those who play SWTOR send their information of their characters to my e-mail to complete their data and thus be able to perform some activity in the future.

This section provides Star Trek Online game information, news and commentary to help improve the performance of our fleets and the experience of our Brotherhood players.
Tips from the Hyperion BTL, SWL Darkfinn to improve our contributions to the Brotherhood fleets.
Previous fleet managers have taken a balanced approach to the fleet holdings. This works with a large group of players who are constantly turning projects, but with a smaller group it is less than ideal. There are certain aspects of the holdings which provide better benefits than others, so let's get those completed first then circle back to fill out the rest.
- The Dilithium Mine and Embassy are now complete, so let's not waste any more resources on those areas when they can provide growth elsewhere.
- On the Starbase we need to focus Tactical. Tier V Tactical gives access to all the best fleet quality ships, so we need to hit that hard and grind it until it's done, then we can finish out Science and Engineering.
- On the Spire we need to focus Research. Tier III Research gives access to Tactical Consoles that provide +Crit Chance, which is the best option. When that's done we can focus on finishing Operations.
- Research lab need to focus Development in order to finish it out, so we can upgrade the whole lab and be done there.
- Colony needs to focus Infrastructure and Energy, which provide equipment. Morale is training manuals and Officers... less important in the immediate future.
- I don't particularly care for anything that K-13 provides, so we can continue the balanced approach there.
- Also, please don't put Dilithium into any Dilithium only projects when it can be used elsewhere... that's wasteful.
If you need gear, if you need tips on skill planning, if you need help leveling, if you want to know about simple keybinds, just ask. The missions are much easier and more enjoyable when you are properly equipped and trained.

Message from the Grand Admiral...
The Journey Continues…
Now that we have reached open space finally we can plot longer jumps, but we need to make sure that we do not give away our intentions, destination or point of origin… So jumps will be short and occasionally in random direction or even backwards as we do our best to throw off New Republic forces.
There will be times during this stage that individual squads, ships and even battlegroups will be tasked with recon missions into neighboring systems or with raid missions in order to gather supplies.
Our Infiltrator squadrons have requested access to the newer T-70 X-Wing and RZ-2 A-Wing so a plan is in the works in order to do that.
Keep up the good work, I salute you all.
OOC: Missions and fiction can be pretty broad during this time allowing each squad, or battlegroup plan operations on their own with the Avenger as a mobile base of operations. The Plan to acquire the newer NR equipment will be rather extensive and involve the entire TC and the EHDB in an operation that will probably take a month or more to complete and we should see it in the February/March time frame. I do not expect to reach the edge of the Unknown Regions before June so feel free to play in the sandbox we have. Good Luck.

CoS/CoB/OV-23E [Dragoon] [Trainee] {TCCORE-SM/2}This is all for now. Take care, keep your social distance and we'll see you in the next report.
Be ready....
