Promotion to Fleet Admiral

24th September 2010 Planet Manhattan, New York System, 8:00 AM. Vice-Admiral Sam Thomas entered SAC building in center of Manhattan. Guard at the entrance salutes and opens the passage. Security systems with two combat robots did theirs scan and after they received correct data returned to stand-by status. Admiral all this almost not noticed, his mind is full of Intel reports about strong Dooms forces seen in Pyrrdra System and latest information's about research in Silver Arrows Labs. He entered inner spaces SAC and was little surprised about this that always present conversations noise almost ceased. Moreover he saw in the eyes of his secretary the special spark and amusement. Interesting, thought Admiral. Secretary say " Good day Sir, a few minutes ago here was Captain Martind Forlon and leaving you here package. I gave this to your desk Sir". "Thank you" replied Admiral, opened his office and walked to his desk. He looked what he has there and suddenly with great surprise he noticed what his eyes see .... On desk is white sealed envelope with SAC logo and below small box of exotic wood. All this looks exactly as thing he so much times prepared himself for another SA personnel.

He sat into chair and with little shaking hands broke the seal and opened envelope. Inside on special paper is written:

The pilot commands from his/her personal fighter or from a Capital ship depending on his/her preference. (Using a capital ship require the player to already own one).

Psst: You are in Beta fleet, not Alpha wing biggrin

even he has the entire fleet hehe so it wouldn't rlly matter.

by **sa_admin** Mon 27 Sep 2010 - 10:02

hmm i wonder if we ever really used the alpha/beta wings setups in game.... i guess we never came all at the same time to be forced to divide in our respective units...

but yeah she's in the clan so she's under my (close) supervision Razz

by **Michael** Mon 27 Sep 2010 - 11:05

I wonder why the command 2 test is way easier than the 1..... everybody could get to that reaalllyyy soon if they wanted. Just getting a cap ship with escort from X to Omega3... isn't that dangerous :O
