Combat Operations Office

The Combat Operations Office is the organisation that overall handles multiplayer activities throughout the TIE Corps. Its officers consists of the following:

• Combat Operations Officer (COO): The Combat Operations Officer is the principal officer that is responsible for managing the Combat Operations Office, publishing reports about office activities and ensuring that assigned tasks from the EH Command Staff and TIE Corps Command Staff are completed.
  • The current Combat Operations Officer is FA Miles Prower
• Combat Operations Office Assistants (COOA): A Combat Operations Assistant primarily assists the COO in processing multiplayer matches that are present in the queue. They may also be assigned secondary projects and some may specialise as subject matter experts in particular platforms or operations.
  • Current Combat Operations Office Assistants are VA Silwar Naiilo, LC Taygetta, LC EvilGrin and CPT TI-40026

Both types of officers are expected to have completed the Combat Operations Exam (COE) before placement.

• Player vs Player (PvP): Intended for supported platforms where combat is against other human players or a mixture of human opponents and AI

Queue processing is performed by the COO or a COOA.

• The exception is that if the COO or a COOA is in the match report, another member of the office must process the match (i.e if Miles Prower (COO) and Silwar Naiilo (COOA) were reported in the match, the match report would not be visible to them, but could be processed by another COOA such as EvilGrin or Taygetta)

Queue processing is accessible to the COO or a COOA by accessing the Combat Operations Office Administration pages from the Administration section on the TIE Corps website after successful PIN and password authentication. Upon selection of the queue intended for processing, they will be presented with each match report.

The match report will consist of:
