Pilots of the Intrepid Battle Group. I am General Adam Fene, better known as "Vender", Commanding Officer of the Intrepid Battle Group. I will be writing today's News Letter.

In IBG News Letters I will cover current news, the Killboard as well as mission information and any other information you should be receiving.

I. News
-----------------------------

1) There is a new divisional Wing in the IBG! "Support Wing" will hold IBG's long prized ITOD Team, and a new group called "Internet Team" has been started as well. The ITOD Team is lead by Major Cephisus Balder, and the Internet Team will be ran by our Fleet Internet Officer, General Bluejay Farscape. The ITOD Team of course produces the missions we fly here, and the Internet Team has been started to help Wings and Squadrons create and maintain their websites. Any questions on either of these groups, e-mail Major Cephisus (cephisus@gmx.net) for the ITOD Team or General Bluejay (bluejayfarscape@cox.net) for the Internet Team.

2) IBG/R2F ITOD 1.06 is underway! There were a few bugs in the first release concerning enemy craft, but that was fixed. There are still more bugs in this mission that many have pointed out, but they don't really affect you completing the mission.

3) Remember the Outer Rim War II is on saturdays, 2-11 pm EST in #outerrim, any Undernet server on IRC.

4) IMPORTANT FOR ALL: a rule has been changed; you can now use any craft you want in the ITOD Missions, by flying them in the simulator.

5) Fly the mission!

IV. R2F/IBG 1.05 Mission Statistical Breakdown

[Reports] 11 new reports came in since the last NL. Thanks to those who flew and participated.
[Killboard] The killboard for IBG/R2F 1.06 is located at:
http://www.rebelsquadrons.org/roster/itodscores.php?action=currFleet&fleet=7

[Progress:] So far Wildcard Squadron and Dagger Squadron continue to battle on like a real rivalry here. Most noteably though, Phalcun Squadron is managing to keep up with them. There have only been 11 different people to report on this mission since December 1st. Excellent job to those who try to get in their scores right away!

That's all for today, until next time. I'm gradually going to get comfortable with commanding IBG, so just a little bit of patience is asked for.
