Thank you to all those pilots that's tried to fly
this wow even though some nights the zone wasn't working all to well.
A big hand goes to Norghi, Simon and AJ who finally got around to
flying a few games we missed ya :)
Well we were up in the top 5 for a while there but
had to settle for 9th due to some unfortunate piloting by Wraith :)
Also tops in RBL were:
1. Aslan
2. Wraith
3. Acehigh
And a big hand to Aslan who was the only one that
managed to place on the top 50 list at 24th Overall. Great job.
~§~
Next month is Christmas so there won't be as many
of you flying due to family and relatives coming into your lives and
disturbing your computer time but hopefully we will still get in a
few games to show those Imps we are still a force to be reckoned with.
:)
Until next time this is Ace News Distorter signing
off saying, remember to watch out for strange melodies floating through
the station :)

Another year almost over and one more WoW down in
the books. Special thanks go to the cold weather outside that kept
Wraith indoors far more than usual helping him rack up 54 games.
Well guys we did great this outing posting up a respectable
8th place overall, great job guys and gals. Unfortunately at the time
of this post BSC did not have the division scores up seeing in their
all knowing wisdom to shut it off again so no BoB scores, unless Aslan
wants to figure it out. :)
Lucky for us though that the normal rankings work
so we could show you the hard work the following players did:
Top in RBL:
1. Wraith
2. Azis
3. Snoopy
* Azis: 3rd TB, 16th Z95
* Wraith: 19th Overall, 7th TB, 16th TF, 12th Z95
Great job all guys, it is not easy getting on those
lists with all the great pilots out there but when you do you deserve
mention. ~§~
In more recent news any and all information leading
to the tracking and eventual sighting of any of the Ewoks and Jawas
will be dealt with swiftly and harshly.
Also the unnecessary reported sightings are of the
Rampant Panda are hereby ordered to be ignored as there is no such
thing and never was, being a plot to undermine the authority of the
....AAAAHHHHHHHHRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!
.......We are currently experiencing some technical
difficulties, please standby until the problem has been resolved thank
you for your patience......

Today in RBL news, we happily report that we have
too much stuff to report. Against Rebel Alliance Transmitting Procedures,
we are going to be broadcasting for a much longer period than usual
today.
First, the wars. RBL and OBS went to war yet again in the Galvastooine
Dilemma 2: Fear in the Night. After a rough start with our newer pilots
taking up arms first against the veteran Imperial pilots, RBL managed
to pull ahead and defeat the Imp scum. Congrats all for a job well
done!
Another WoW has come and gone, with RBL going to war once again against
the best everyone has to offer. It with certainty that RBL will be
ranked highly once again.
In the RBLGallery, Aslan has taken up shop, opening up Aslan's
Bar and Grill. All are welcome to enter and enjoy great food,
good drinks, and all are most welcome to rack up a huge tab to pay
for the operating costs of the Bar.
Speaking of the Gallery, we at RBLNews find that we were remiss in
mentioning the opening of the new wing of RBL HQ. The Gallery is open
to all to view, copy, and just plainly enjoy. All pilots and ground
pounders are welcome to donate and contribute to it.
The Jedi Knight Division is reopened, with Admiral Azis made General
of the new Division, and RBL_Hondo as his second in command. There
have been many who have signed up from the XvT ranks, and in time
it is hoped that more who will play JK only will join soon. Good luck
all.
In Engineering News, Engineering Chief Aslan reports that on all pilots
bios there is the enlistment date there, and soon there will be a
date of rank, or Promotion date there as well. This will help in determining
the time to be promoted.
Just a moment, we are recieving new news....
Results of the WoW are in. RBL placed 15th overall. Great work! Here
are the stats:
Wolf=158 Games
Cobra=133
Admirals=129
Hawk=20
Wraith=10
-------------------------------
Top Ten Gamers
Fox=125 games
Vader=78
Azis=77
Aslan=35
Razor=31
VaderCat=19
Wildslash=18
Slayer=18
Crysania=13
Mojo=6
Excellent work everyone. And moreso to Foxhound! You are fast becoming
our top gamer Fox, good work!
Our final bit of news is on Trophys. Recently, RBL held a competition
for the Best Squad trophy, with entries from M1A2Tanker, Aslan, and
a Mystery entry. By a small margin, Aslan's entry wins, and is hereby
awarded to Wolf Squadron for being top in the WoW. This trophy will
be handed out to the squad that does better than all others in WoWs.
Good work Wolf! You're the youngest, but obviously you deserved it.
This is RBLNews, signing off. GO RBL!!!

Scoop Here! RBL did Great in this WOW but while it
was going on I got a big Story too!! As the newly hired investigative
reporter I have found some interesting juicy stuff at RBL central!
First off it seems that the admirals got together at Aslans bar and
grill for a friendly game of spades but the stakes were high! Apparently
The A-team as they are called (Azis and Aslan) were playing Mac and
Crys for the rights to there personal luxury shuttle if they won.
However if the A-team lost they would be Mac and crys pesonal slaves
for a week! The A-Team worked the other 2 Admirals hard and at the
end of the night Mac handed over the keycodes for his and Crys (and
she was after having to turn it over to the Ewok and Alien!) prize
shuttle to the A team!!! Since than this reporter has captured a pic
of the shuttle after the A team got a hold of it!
Nice paint Job!!.......Until Next time this is Scoop signing out *S*

Today, on RBLNews, we are proud to announce
that we finally have found our opening credits music. Even though we
have no credits, we do have the music.
War is brewing between OBS and RBL yet again, and so far, it is looking
to be quite the war as both sides gear up for it. RBLIntel has reported
that a TIE Interceptor was stolen recently, apparently from the same
maintence outpost as the one the TIE Bomber was stolen from. This is
unconfirmed as yet, with the Intel cheif sayin "We don't know anything".
How true this is....
In other news, Vader has been double slotted as Commodore and Squad
Leader of Cobra. His jubilation was greatly apparent when he started
to dance uncontrollably before everyone. Congratulations go out to him.
Congratulations also go out to Rancor and Cuda for thier promotions
to Squad Leader and XO of Wrath, respectivly. Due to other concerns,
WildSlash has turned over command of Hawk to M1A2Tanker, and taken his
place as Squad XO. And finally, the biggest promotions are givin to
Azis, and Aslan. Azis takes the seat of Admiral SteelToe, who is still
reported as MIZ, or Missing In Zone, and Aslan gets the new seat of
Rear Admiral. Congratulations to all.
On the OBS issue, High Admiral Obiwan invites RBL pilots to crash the
Imperal Ball on the Emperor's Pride, deep in OBS space. Three RBL Officers
did attend, and left in short time. See the OBS Emperor's Pride Comlink
Finally, we at RBL wish to say simply, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! |

Due to a Imperial attack on the RBLNews station,
we have been unable to keep you, our viewers updated. We have just recently
repaired everything. Sadly, even Aslans' Pee Tree has been found in
the rubble. As we are committed to informing you of all news worthy
events, it will take RBLNews some time to recover all the data of the
past wars and post them. Until that time, RBLNews time slot shall be
taken by a cooking show.
And now, for the cooking show.
static, buzz noises.....And for the viewers just now joining
us, I am cooking up a beautiful souffle, made with my Mothers' recipe.
We have already added all the ingredients, and now, lastly, we flambe
our souffle with an ACETYLENE TORCH!! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA FOOOOOOSH
YAAAAH!!
Please stand by:"Psycho Chef" is currently experiencing technical difficulties....in

The rumblings of war are increasing, with the newest
Week of War starting tomarrow. Many pilots are excited......especially
Vader. After giving his Tom Tom a new coat of paint, and cleaning
out the inside, he took it out for a quick practice run with Elita.
The rumblings of yet another war are in the making,
with IRN_BlackRooq throwing down his guantlet in the ReBeL Hangers...which
was dutifully picked up and kept...for now.

In the scandal of the day, a theft occured
in the office of OBS Grand Admiral Thrawn. While the breakin wasn't
so bad, since it's Thrawns office, what was so scandalous, is the possible
evidence of a link to Thrawns involvement with the assault on RBL_M1A2Tankers
homeworld and the near destruction of a ReBeL squadron and Task Force
sent there. Originally it was belived that Admiral IsoFlex, the commander
of the Imperial fleet that attacked Tankers homeworld, did it soley
on his own. RBLNews has recived word that there is information that
points to Thrawn actually ordering IsoFlex to do the assault, for reasons
unknown at this time. We will update you as we go, and on a personal
note....whoever has that information, please send it here immeaditaly!!! **Anchor clears throat** This is M1A2Tanker, signing off. |

In todays news, Admiral Zarathos announced today with
great pride and admiration, the accomplishments of RBL_Azis, and ReBeL.
Azis flew like mad, with 111 games under his belt in the past war.
He also held a ranting, within the squad alongside Vader and Zarathos,
at second place, with a 77.50 rating. In overall points Azis took
top gun, with a astonishing 3,563,063 points. Vader gave him a run
for his money though, with a 2,201,824 points. But not to detract
from Azis spotlight, Congratulations Azis!!
In Squadron stats, Cobra took High Squadron, with
a Total Points of 6,820,887 points. Hawk took second with 1,919,210
points, the Admirals took third with 1,323,591 points, and Wrath took
fourth with 396,040. Even some Reserves showed up, and brought in
35,090 points. Every little bit helps, and all worked together to
help give ReBeL a grand total of 10,552,032 points.
Zarathos also announced that ReBeL is about to reach
the 100 million point mark. An amazing accomplishment considering
the age of the Squadron is only 7 months old. Only 17 clubs have reached
this mark in BSC history. All pilots who have helped to reach this
point, will be immortalized in a special tribute on the next War page.
All pilots, past and present, will have thier names made in flames.
All deserve it.

On todays show, we show pride and admiration at Aslans
restraint, and leadership abilites as he gives everyone a personalized
pee tree, which Scorch promptly tossed out the airlock, not realizing
that Aslan had placed a credit card for everyone on thier individual
pee trees.
The War has ended, with RBL making a good strong show
at 26th place. Congratulations to all who flew abound, and all take
a well deserved rest. The backlog of awards, promos, and paperwork
is slowly being taken care of, as warriors move aside for the beurocrats
to do what they do so well, make life a living hell for the warriors.
Stats will be posted as more information is gathered.
RBL Investigators have reportedly positively identified
the person in the theft of Aslan's backup Pee Tree as Reprah. RBL
Investigators are also looking into the mystery of the person who
broke into the bridge and transmitted obsene messages over the carrier
waves. RBLNews will check to make sure of the identity of the perpetrator,
and will look into the mystery transmitter. Why? Because you...want
to know.
Scorch is now accepting applications for his combination
gymnastics/lovemaking **transmission intercepted** RBLNews
is not responsible for any damages to personel or property if you
take Scorch up on this, as this transmission appears to be a slice
made by some unknown slicer **transmission intercepted** course. Called Gymnasty. Call Scorch at comlink # 123456789.

We inturrupt this broadcast of Brumby, the Fuzzy Purple
Bantha, with a special news bulletin. Aslans Pee tree, has been sighted
once again, on a collision course with our sun. Luckliy, all the ice
is melting off, and the tree is becoming clean once again. A recovery
team has been sent out to get it back (hopefully)in time before Aslans
bladder bursts. As for Aslans backup pee tree, there has been no ransom
post for it, nor any other clue as to it's wereabouts.
As for the War, RBL pilots flew fast and furious,
but were slowly being worn down, when reinforcments arrived in the
form of RBL_Vader and RBL_Omegadoom. Cheers of joy and jubilation
cried forth from the RBL Hangers, as they flew out at high speed to
join thier comrades in battle. The tide has slowly turned, and many
pilots are begining to fight with new zeal. All show an optimisim
possibly unmatched in any of the other squadrons. In the words of
Vader, "we need to fly more and KILL, KILL, KILL!! Oh, and recover
Aslans tree..." RBLNews will continue to keep you informed.

On the Intergalactic front, clashes and battles rage.
M1A2Tanker, Muzikitty, Zarathos, Azis, and many others were involved
in the fighting. The going is tough, but they gave as good as they
got in most cases. RBLNews will post updates as the war develops.
In Local news today, Aslan returned, with many unknown
packages for his fellow pilots. Upon discovery of the damage done
by both Imperial slanders, and Engineering mistakes, rendering the
main comlink down for a period of several hours, the furry ewok became
outraged, stating, "Rep did what? And Tanker....TANKER!!! GRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!",
before storming out of the hanger to his office.
In our continuing story of Aslans pee tree, RBL Intel
has been unable to completely determine who the intruder was, or why
he took the pee tree. Several items of food had also been removed,
and littered Aslans office. A partial composite of the intruder reveals
him to possibly be Scorch. But there is only a 17% chance of that
being true and a 99% chance that's it all a big fat lie. The pee tree
has been positively sighted, when it collided with a Imperial probe
droid, and made the droid self destruct. So far, the tree hasn't been
recovered, or seen since. RBL Intel, and RBLNews continues to investigate.

In Intergalactic news, war has broken out for the 25th time this year, envolving
many squadrons all over the galaxy. The cause is unknown, and the outcome
is far from being determined. With luck, and more than a little help from
above and from all, ReBeL shall do it's best in this war, as it always does,
and always will.
July 20th, 2000
In a major break in our continueing story on Aslans Pee tree, RBLNews has
aquired a security cam video that shows a unidentified figure taking Aslans
Pee Tree to an undetermined location. We'll breif you as we continue.
July 18th, 2000
In a excellent training session, Wild§lash, RegietheBad, Irish Guard,
and M1A2Tanker prepared for the upcoming Week of War with great enthusiasm.
Much to Tanks surprise, he took top gun in three runs, with Guard taking
the final run in a hardfought Squint battle. Wild§lash and Regie finetuned
thier equipment to thier satisfaction, and made impressive runs as well.
It is without a doubt that for these four, they are Locked, Cocked, and
Ready to rock! In other news, Aslans Pee Tree is still nowhere to be found,
although it has been sighted in orbit around RBL Headquarters. RegietheBad
almost went outside to find it, when he found out that he forgot to put
on his EVA suit. In a related story, the rumors of the file Aslan has on
Rep are still going strong, but rumors also abound of a file in Reps hands
of a, and I quote, "a very bald Ewok". No evidence as yet has surfaced to
the rumors being true or not. More to follow.
July 17th, 2000
Late this evening, Aslan, and Rep had a go at it over the loss of Aslans'
prized pee tree out the airlock. Details are scetchy as to the cause, but
from eyewitness reports Aslan had left his tree to the care of his engineering
staff, M1A2tanker, and Rep. Rep had been holding it, until some unknown
even caused him to drop the tree. But, alls well that ends well, Aslan had
a backup tree, and he gave Rep extra duty, cleaning it throughly. Although
there are rumors of a mysterious file in Aslans possesion about Rep. We
will cover this story as we go.
July 10th, 2000
Congratulations to RBL_Reprah for being the top ranked RBL, and top ranked
pilot in the Galvastooine Dilemma. A further congratulations to RBL_Elita
for giving Rep a challenge to get there! RBL pilots take 3 of the top 5
ranking positions in the past war, with Rep 1st with a 89 rating, Elita
with a 88, OBS_Pyn with a 77, Azis and OBS_PsychoToad tie with a 75, and
Zarathos finishes it off with a 67. Awards and promotions to M1A2Tanker,
Omegadoom, Muzikitty, Jackal, Nah, leythl, C_Grade, RegietheBad, and Holmes.
Congratulations all!! Congratulations also to Aslan for recovering his pee
tree, burned, battered, but never destroyed!
July 8th, 2000
After a one of the most hard fought wars seen, the fate of the Galzastooine
Dilemma is settled by a few mere points. Both sides claim victory, but after
carefull anaylsis by RBL_Zarathos and OBS_Pyneagen, and OBS Obiwan, OBS
is declared the winner by a fraction of a K/D point. Congratuations to all
the new and original pilots who put in their time. It was well fought, and
