The ''Fleet Commander's Honor Guard'' (usually abbreviated as ''FCHG'') is a special ranking system that rates pilots and officers in the [[TIE Corps]] by combat activity and performance using a point system. These points then determine a pilot's place in the Honor Guard. For combat activity, points are awarded for flying and completing missions or winning online combat engagements. For performance, pilots compete against each other for points for holding high scores for missions and battles, adding a more competitive element for pilots trying to hold a higher rank.

For long time the needed points to reach the highest FCHG rank, Imperator [IMPR], were 3000 and the ranks of Optio [OPT], Tesserarius [TSRS], Decurion [DCRN] and Aquilifer [AQFR] didn't exist. Then the former Fleet Commander [[Astatine]] decided to change it around 2006, trying to increase activity and make room for more potential members by raising the amount needed to reach [IMPR] up to 10000 and creating those new ranks above to accomodate so many points; obviously almost the rest of ranks followed on increasing their respective needed amounts. But in December 15 of 2008 ([http://tac.emperorshammer.org/reports/287.html TAC report #287]) Fleet Admiral [[Anahorn Dempsey]] who was [[Tactical Officer]] at that time changed it again by lowering the needed amounts to reach the highest ranks, for she thought (wisely) that given the activity levels and number of Emperor's Hammer members back in the day it was almost impossible if not completely out of reach to get so many points, hence considering the highest ranks as unattainable. The point system below comes from that last modification.

The Fleet Commander's Honor Guard (usually abbreviated as FCHG) is a ranking system that rates pilots in the TIE Corps by combat activity and performance using a point system. These points then determine a pilot's place in the Honor Guard. Points are awarded for completing single player missions. Pilots also compete against each other for points by holding high scores for missions and battles, thereby adding a more competitive element for pilots trying to hold higher ranks.

History

For a long time the necessary points to reach the highest FCHG rank of Imperator [IMPR] were 3000 and the ranks of Optio [OPT], Tesserarius [TSRS], Decurion [DCRN] and Aquilifer [AQFR] did not exist. In 2006 the former Fleet Commander Astatine changed the FCHG point system, attempting to allow for increased activity by raising the amount of FCHG points needed to reach [IMPR] to 10000 and created the aforementioned new ranks to help fill out the FCHG system; this also meant the rest of the FCHG ranks increased their point requirements.

On December 15th 2008 (TAC report #287) Fleet Admiral Anahorn Dempsey as Tactical Officer lowered the point requirements to reach the highest ranks, as it was determined that given activity levels and the size of the Emperor's Hammer membership the point requirements of higher FCHG ranks were unattainable.

Point System

Below is the point system used for the Fleet Commander's Honor Guard:

  • 1 point for every mission flown
  • 2 points for every mission high score
  • 2 points x # of missions in the battle for every battle high score
