The Manifesto

The Tempest Union was founded on January 15th, 2006, by Ciel, to help support the game, Heroes of the Pacific. Ciel’s other motivation was getting a PS2 Squadron in the virtual air to combat FEAF, a once proud squadron that had fallen under the control of crass internet braggarts, bullying the PS2 maps of Heroes of the Pacific. It wasn’t long before FEAF left the game, as with the help of the OADF(Osean Air Defense Force), FEAF was humbled by Ciel’s First Attack Squadron for the PS2.
PC players looking for comradeship and teamwork began to enlist, and within three months TTU was fielding One PS2, Two PC, and one Xbox squadron for Heroes of the Pacific. We had become the Dominant Squadron in the game, and were never seriously Challenged by another organized Squad.
The Tempest Union also made its presence felt in the short lived aviation game, Blazing Angels.
By late 2007, online Heroes of the Pacific had gone nearly dormant, with seemingly, only TTU and their Hard Flying Rivals, Radio Flyer and Red Ace (a father and son team from Louisiana) playing the game.
Which brings us to today, a month shy of our Two Year Anniversary, realizing that the personalities and energy and philosophies that have kept this Union together for two years, can keep it together for as long as we want to have a TTU.
We are building our Squadron for IL2 Sturmovik 1946, and looking forward to another growth spurt. And hope for Peace and Alliances with our former rivals.
