News:
I've spoken to AD Proton about the SSL results- apprantly all the SSL coordinators are MIA/AWOL so he's going to handle the results himself. I do have confirmation from him that our files were received on time though so everything's copacetic for us Prae's.

All the big comps are over now, SSL, Summer Patrol etc.. so now it's time to do some interal comps or would you like to challenge some other squads? With all of the current Praes we have a large contact list in the EH- ID, TC, EHDB, IW, BHG, HF etc... Food for thought so to speak.... ;p.

SA Astantine has released EHNL105 (I've got a few gfx in it too, another 2 LoA's I guess;p.) at You can download it at http://nl.ehtiecorps.org/nl105.zip (9.7MB) or view it online at http://nl.ehtiecorps.org/nl105/

Is anyone else bored with the Prae banner or is it just me? ;p. Morgan we're you serious about the smiley face?! ;p.

I'm still waiitng to see what's going on with our MSE awards. Patience isn't one of my virtues;p.

The Tac office has recently released FTIE249, FBoP32 & FBoP33 (they're all pretty good missions- I've flown them already);p.

The EH Fleet manual has been updated by FA Mindbender once again, it's located here: http://www.minos.net/~sco/fleet-manual/index.html (check out the splash page- it's a great EH symbol featuring the SSSD Sovereign)!

Craft Essay Competition (for those of you who like fiction comps try this one out for a possible IS-GR thru IS-BR up for grabs).
12:35 - FA Ender mBind
Start Date: 10/1/2004
End Date: 11/1/2004
Parties Involved: All Emperor's Hammer Members except for the SCO
Medals to be Awarded: 1st IS-GR, 2nd IS-SR, 3rd IS-BR or equalivalent SG medal.
Write an essay about your favorite Star Wars ship: Why was it designed? What are its main uses? Its History? Its strengths and shortcomings?

Essays need to be from "inside" the Star Wars universe, and from an Emperor's Hammer point of view is encouraged (but not required).
DO research on your craft of choice, your essay cannot conflict with official sources. If you use sources, list these at the end. (This means a fairly unknown or EH craft gives you more freedom then one that is well documented.. but also that you will need use your own logic and imagination more.)
Essays can be any length, if you want to write about the entire history of the "Millenium Falcon" you're free to do so, but a short but effective story about the TUG has just as much chance to win.
Essays need to be in .txt, .rtf, .html or .doc format and zipped. Send your submission to sco@emperorshammer.org with "Craft Essay Competition" as subject.
The best entries may be included in the the Fleet Manual, a seperate additional ISM (or equalivalent) will be rewarded for those.

COL Morgan

-RECRUIT, our numbers are dwindling fast, remember our requirements of the rank of CM & at least 500 FCHG.
http://praetorian.rawx.net/join.php (the only exception to this rule I'm allowing is former Prae's who served more than three months).
-work on improving your own personal FCHG levels- remember we do have a few squadron specific rewards related to this! ;p.

the Citboard programs still acting odd at the moment and is basically disfunctional online, it only works offline and only if you have an up-to-date combat record of every pilot in the squadron. Once I have that sorted out I'll resume the citation assignments for us all.
