Tactical Office Report:  08.07.01  Date: 8/7/01 9:42:08 AM Eastern Daylight Time  From: skye_shadow@hotmail.com (Matthew Lipton) Well... the updates to the site are going up tonight. The first two days of this week have been a bit hectic, and I apologize for all this delay. As for the report, here it is. I will be working on authoring the first ever Skye Rangers Tactical Manual. I should be finishing this project within the next few weeks. The manual will contain more detailed information on Skye Ranger mech variants, pros and cons of different weapon classes, and of the individual weapons. It will also contain suggestions upon what kinds of weapons and configurations work best in a given situation, based completely on feedback from the entire Skye Rangers' membership. I will also continue to work on increasing my kill total to 250 by the time school starts again, which will be 9/4/01, so that gives me roughly 3.5 weeks. That's all from me this week Hail! Adam Stefan "Shadow" Connor Hauptmann-Kommandant Skye Rangers Tactical Officer
