IS-SW FA Pickled Yoda In the thirteenth and final battle of Imperial Storm, the Warrior Task Force defended Vultur from the Hammer Task Force's last remaining capital ship, the VSDII Crusader. With GN Pickled Yoda and then-CM Aldaric posting fantastic scores on TIE-free 218, the Warrior suffered no losses while the Hammer lost everything it had left. 2018-07-01
IS-SW FA Pickled Yoda In the twelfth battle of Imperial Storm, the TCCS Task Force once again struck at Vultur. As before, GN Picked Yoda and CPT Rando led the defense and forced the TCCS fleet back by submitting the top two scores on TIE-free 137. 2018-07-01
IS-SW LC Rando In the eleventh battle of Imperial Storm, the Warrior Task Force found itself defending its prized possession, the Hammer's Task Force's homeworld Vultur that the Warrior had taken from them a few turns prior. Then-CM Rando and GN Pickled Yoda posted the top two scores on TIE-free 104, successfully foiling the attempted invasion by the TCCS Task Force. 2018-07-01
IS-SW LC Rando In the ninth battle of Imperial Storm, the Warrior Task Force successfully intercepted ships from the TCCS Task Force inbound to Ordina. The INT Constrainer and just one squadron of TIE Fighters held off two Interdictors and four TIE Defender squadrons, thanks to top-notch scores from then-CM Rando and GN Pickled Yoda on TIE-free 182. 2018-07-01
IS-SW LC Rando In the seventh battle of Imperial Storm, ships from the Warrior and Hammer Task Forces arrived at Ultima on the same turn. The ISDII Vanguard and its six squadrons were matched against none other than the ISDII Hammer itself, along with two Escort Carriers, a Lancer Frigate, and a staggering eighteen squadrons of fighters. With outstanding scores submitted by then-CM Rando and GN Pickled Yoda on TIE-free 263, the Warrior scored a dazzling victory that saw the destruction of 97% of the Hammer's ships, including their flagship. With the stunning amount of losses suffered by the Hammer Task Force, the Bloodbath at Ultima would pave the way to the Warrior's eventual victory in the Khan Belt. 2018-07-01
IS-SW LC Rando In the fifth battle of Imperial Storm, the Warrior and TCCS Task Forces clashed again, this time at Scarus. Then-CM Rando posted the highest score on XWA-free 96, once again setting a new high score on the mission, that pushed the Warrior's average above the TCCS' and allowed the Warrior to claim Scarus for its own. 2018-07-01
IS-SW LC Rando In the fourth battle of Imperial Storm, then-CM Rando submitted the highest score on XWA-free 24 (and set a new high score in the process) as part of the Warrior Task Force's invasion of Helica, which was held by the TCCS fleet. Unfortunately the scores were such that the TCCS successfully defended the world and the Warrior fleet was forced to fall back, but without any losses incurred. That same fleet, led by the ISDII Intrepid, would go on to have a string of victories that might not have happened had it been weakened at Helica. 2018-07-01
IS-SW LC Rando In the eighth battle of Imperial Storm and fresh off of its major victory over Hammer forces at Ultima, the Warrior Task Force sought to break the back of the Hammer Task Force by striking at its homeworld Vultur. Vultur happened to be the only world the Hammer had left after they'd been unsuccessful at Ordina, Sirdar, and Ultima. Led by the ISDII Intrepid, the same ship that had a few turns prior been rebuffed by the TCCS at Helica, Warrior forces would deal a decisive blow to the Hammer Task Force that wrested their last world from their control. Then-CM Rando and then-CM Aldaric were instrumental to the Warrior's triumph, posting the top two scores on TIE-free 262. 2018-07-01
IS-SW LC Rando In the third battle of Imperial Storm, ships from the Warrior Task Force came across ships from the Hammer Task Force that had survived their failed attempt to capture Ordina the turn before. Led by then-CM Rando's top score on TIE-free 80, the Hammer suffered another round of losses so great that it became known as the Ordina Massacre. 2018-06-28
IS-SW LC Rando In the second battle of Imperial Storm, then-CM Rando posted the highest score on XWA-free 22! This led to the Warrior Task Force taking Ordina from the TCCS fleet, and the Warrior would go on to hold Ordina the rest of the campaign. 2018-06-28
