Start Date: 10/1/2004

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.
Simple examples:

TIE Tattoo Search Comp
FA Cyric
VA Ky Terrak sends this new comp to the TC:
TIE Tattoo Search
Starts 10/11/2005
Ends 10/25/2004
Parties Involved ALL MEMBERS OF THE TC

I am looking for a great graphic of the COMPLETE tattoo from the TIE fighter game. I need the one from the Expansion not just the original one. So the best three graphics that show the FULL tattoo that you recieve for going through the Emperor's Secret Order, will receive the IS-GR, IS-SR, IS-BR resepctivly. All submissions must be sent to kyterrak@aol.com with the subject "Tattoo of the Empire"


RO Banner Competition
FA Cyric
The Recon Office is holding a two-part contest. First part, an EH-Wide banner comp. The banner needs to be in a traditional rectangle-shape, but the exact size I will give some room to work with. This comp will continue thru November 20th, 2004 at midnight.

Now, the second part is voting. I will have the banners set up on a website and, probably through the polling center, have the EH vote on they want to be set up at the booth.

I want everyone to remember, this banner will represent the entire EH at the largest Star Wars convention EVER! This needs to be the best banner we have. I can't emphasize this enough.

For more information contact AD Joe at noon001@aol.com

Pilot of the Week

Errrr.... No activity equals no Pilot of the Week...
(Although I could always select myself! )


Commander's Thoughts

It seems to me that all of Wasp's pilots have been kidnapped by hostile forces, although no randsom-demands have been made...
Should you be one of those pilots, and should you be reading this, please let me know whether or not you wish to stay in Wasp Squadron!
We don't need 'sleeper-agents', we need ACTIVE pilots!!!
