All Iridium Wing pilots and applicants are required to check in on our discord channel IW-Headcount [discord.gg] within two weeks. This time frame expires on 19 Feb, 2017.

If you do not respond in the headcount channel by that time, you will be placed on the inactive list.

If you are a pilot you will not be re-activated until you speak with the Discord Moderators.

If you are an applicant your progress will be erased and you will have to repeat the process again in order to have access to our resources and participate in IW operations.

Thank you and stay safe out there CMDRs!

We in Iridium Wing are dedicated to protecting our explorers. As such, this new information coming in today on one xbox pilots contact with a Thargoid ship creates concerns for your safety in the black. As always, if you need an escort or are planning on traveling in that region; request an escort on our Discord Channel [discord.gg].


Until then, if you have contact with Thargoids, we have a few suggestions in order to help you survive if they become hostile.

1. Immediately add 4 pips to your systems bar
   
   
2. Boost away from the threat (add your remaining pips to your engines)
   
   
3. High wake to the next closest system you can find in your left navigation panel

We also recommend that you no longer travel without any shields as we know some explorers do.

The vast majority of these updates for 2.2.03 are targeted towards the following subjects...

• Powerplay and its associated AI along with mechanical changes of how Powerplay functions.
  
• Engineers update: Extensive balancing tweaks and changes to promote a larger variety of recipes to use. Many additional changes are designed to smooth out the combat related blueprints.
  
• General Combat Balancing: We hear you. We’ve begun the process of changing existing weapon meta to enable a far greater choice in how you, the commander, can outfit your ships for combat.

The full list of changes are posted in our general discussion forum .

The main focus for us here in Iridium Wing will be how best to impliment the new combat changes as these effect us most of all. Beumer one of our most knowledgable combat pilots will advise you in our Hanger forum topic or in our #hanger topic on discord [discord.gg]

We are always looking for more pilots to help keep explorers from being picked on!

So if you like helping people, and maybe ganging up on and killing poor defensless interdicting pirates too then we are your group!

We also have some very knowledgable people to help make your combat ship the best it can be and we will frequently do PvP practice/fun.
