/me bubbles softly
Week of great disappointment. That's all what I can say. I saw Matrix Reloaded,
and what can I say. It sucks big time. I am greatly disappointed and I am sure
other people will be too. Now, I think they should stay with 1 part movie.
About EH things. I have released several battles this week and we are very close to TAC3K. And I think that's all for now. It was quiet week.
Mission Creation Courses
Thanks to LC Philo, I have data about TM. :)
TIE Mission Creation (TM) - 40 graduates
XvT Mission Creation (XTM/1) - 301 graduates
XvT Advanced Mission Creation (XTM/2) - 109 graduates
Next week I will try to include XAM as well, so we will have all mission
creation courses here :)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TAC3K countdown!
More battles and missions released and we are very close to our ultimate goal!
We need only 82 to reach TAC3K! Good work Tactical Staff, keep it up!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission Creation Corner
We have a quick but helpful tip from Philo:
Flight groups always face "Waypoint 1" from their start point. So, make sure the
player's craft is facing the right way to start the mission. It's annoying to
have to turn around to head towards your objectives.
Oath of Loyalty
Remembers guys. This competition starts June 1st, so it's very close. Keep your
battles ready.
Tactical Office Person of the Week:
This week I've selected Serge Broskopf as Person of the Week. As recommended by
TCC:XWA:
I nominate TCT Serge Broskopf for PotW, he's done two corrections for me so far,
and ive never seen someone who goes into so much detail, excellent job Serge,
keep it up.
Great job Serge. You have earned 2 points. I remind all TCCs to send their PotW
recomendations. So current standings look as follows:
Penfold - 2

EHNet.org got a new design this week, thanks to IOAs Xander Drax and Turtle. As
a reward for this, Xander Drax has received a promotion to MAJ.
Planning still continues on the joint project the Internet Office is working
with the WO and other office. Details will be released as they are available.
The IO also has a brand new banner, which is included in the design. I will post
a separate file of it for those who would like it on EHNet sometime soon.
Alex Foley did some updates to My EHNet regarding the optional blocks. He also
added a block that supports the BHG's new blog system.

<SALUTE>
I returned from leave yesterday and can safely say I am utterly exhausted. My
utmost thanks go out to those Officers that stood in for me during this absence,
such help is appreciated.
Colonel Aeishline Strathaven, an individual who accomplished much for the
Training Office resigned recently. The Office extends our gracious thanks to her
for all her work, and wishes her well in future endeavours. Due to her
resignation, the position of Professor of the BitchX Course is now open for
applications.
The Training Office has begun the development of a short competition that will
be launched (with hope on our side) within the next two weeks. In keeping with
the tradition of TO competitions, this enterprise will again be fictionally
themed; the working title for this competition is “Apostasy”. Myself and my TOA
have already begun the framework of the competition, and will be contacting
various Command Officers and SubGroup Officers within the next few days.
After consultation with various Officers, I have decided to approve the proposal
by the COO and CM Per-Aa that a standing competition be implemented to award
participation in official EH MP competitions (namely those held in #EHCOC). Thus
far this only applies to the TIE Corps (awarding an Iron Star Gold Wings etc.),
whereby the individual pilot(s) who participate in the most MP matches
(regardless of win, loss etc.) will be recognised for their participation with
awards. The competition has yet to be implemented, and once it has I will be
talking to the applicable SubGroup Officers about implementation EH-wide.
Congratulations to the newly promoted TIE Tactics Professor, Commander Gandalf.
A well deserved elevation.
The Training Office is now accepting Course proposals. With stability now
re-established within IWATS, and a full compliment of IWATS Staff on the near
horizon, I have decided to re-open the Office to proposals of new Courses to be
included in the IWATS repertoire. There are a few restrictions upon proposals; I
am open to many diverse and innovative ideas, and would like to encourage the
proposal of specifically non-programming Courses at this time. The Courses under
consideration so far are:
Cascading Style Sheets.
Sound Processing/Editing.
General Multiplayer.
Star Wars Galaxies.
BitchX Professor Open for Applications
The requirements are:
- An active member of the Emperor’s Hammer holding the rank of Lieutenant (or
equivalent) or above.
- Extensive knowledge of the open-source IRC client, BitchX (
http://www.bitchx.org/ ).
- Be able to grade exam submissions within 24 hours.
- Keeping Graduate Counts (total and per month).
- Maintaining/updating the Course Notes (basic HTML knowledge necessary; or a
good WYSIWYG editor).
Applications should be sent to me (
to@emperorshammer.org ) with the subject “BitchX PROF Application”.

<SALUTE>
This week I upgraded the bots "dasb0t", "SilentOne", and "Chewie" to eggdrop
v1.6.15. Although this does not add any new features for users, it does fix
numerous minor bugs. Yesterday SA Kawolski gave me a copy of the Trivia and
Millionaire scripts from his old bot Surefire. I've tested them out, and from
all indications they work perfectly on dasb0t which runs a much newer version of
eggdrop than what Surefire was last running. I haven't yet decided if I'm going
to run this weeks #EH meeting trivia using it, but I definitely will start to in
the future. I am looking to increase the amount of trivia contained in dasb0t's
triviabanks, and will be writing some. I will also be accepting trivia and word
scrambles written by other people. Anybody wishing to contribute should contact
me for the appropriate information.
Some time this weekend I will be adding the qstat4eggdrop TCL script to my bots.
This script queries game servers such as HL, UT, Quake and JK for status and
information. I would like anybody running a dedicated gaming server for the EH
to contact me with their server address, and game information.

Greetings!
There isn't much coming from the Recon Office directly, but I do have some SW
news I would like to share. So here we go.
A Teaser Trailer is Coming
Confirmation has been received from the Core Team that a teaser trailer from
Episode VII is forthcoming.
VS Producer, Jason Seibel aka Urban Jedi, confirms that the trailer, which is
in the final stages of production "will not show a lot, but will be enough to
pique the interest of even the casual VS visitor."
When pressed for details, Jason only said that the world
would have to wait until May 21, 2003 for the world wide release of the trailer,
right here on The Force.Net!
Stay tuned for that trailer, debuting exactly one year before the release of
Episode VII and an interview with Head Script Writer, Jeremy Lazar coming soon,
right here on TheForce.Net!

20 Years of Le Retour Du Jedi
The latest issue of Lucasfilm Magazine, the French Official Star Wars Fan Club
publication, celebrates 20 years of Return of the Jedi with a detailed look back
at Episode VI. This issue includes a special tribute to the late Richard
Marquand, director of Jedi, with interviews with French actor Thierry Lhermitte
who worked with Marquand, and Jedi alumni Robert Watts (Producer) and Ken
Ralston (Visual Effects Supervisor). The Jedi spotlight looks at scenes cut from
the film, and includes some never-before-seen photos.
Also in this issue is an interview with Frederic Talgorn, one of
the composers who provided music for The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, and all
the regular columns such as Dr. Jones mail, Skywalker Reporter, Inside Attack of
the Clones, Behind the Magic, Set Piece and more.
Lucasfilm Magazine #41 has started shipping to subscribers and will be available
on French newsstands on May 26th. For more information on the Official French
Fan Club, visit their website here.
"Celebrate the 20th anniversary of 'Retour du Jedi'
When arrived the question of devoting a number worthy of this name for the 20
years of 'Retour du Jedi'(Return of the Jedi), we asked ourselves which
orientation we could possibly give to it. We had to propose a sort of brand new
view on a movie that we had evoked so many times in this magazine. Should it be
devoted to the actors? Why not, but Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford had received
the honors of the 'Lucasfilm Magazine' many times and we already knew that we
would find Carrie Fisher in this summer's next release. While reviewing fourty
and over publications and the soon to come 8 years anniversary of the magazine,
we realized that the person we mentioned the less was simply its realizer:
Richard Marquand. Deceased since 1987, it was obviously out of question to get
an interview. But while searching in the archives of Lucasfilm, we were able to
find an interview of Richard Marquand dating of the movie release and which was
only publicated in the 'Bantha Tracks', the publication of the American Fan-Club
at the time. Very quickly, this never released interview became the headline of
this exceptional number. To complete, we then undertaken to contact the producer
Robert Watts who, in an exclusive interview, rememorated his incredible
experience with Lucasfilm. But we also decided to investigate, where DVDs are
getting more and more, on famous deleted scenes because if some are relatively
well-known, some others are less. A few exclusive pictures should also make more
than one quiver of delight. Finally, we wanted to relate the incredibles special
effects of the movie, at the already revolutionary time, but at the saga of the
merchandising Revenge of the Jedi, temporary title given to the Episode VI which
made the ink flow. To closure all this, our traditional heading 'L'Envers du
Décor' (Behind the Scene) is also suiting the colors of Richard Marquand's
movie.
The exploration of the Episode II's meanders is still the
synopsis of this number, as well as Episode III and its more and more enticing
information. The quality and diversity of talents that occurred in the series
'Les Aventures du Jeune Indiana Jones' (Adventures of Young Indiana Jones) gives
us once again the occasion to meet a French artist, Frédéric Talgorn, composer
who had the chance to work with George Lucas himself. Finally, you will find
your usual headings: Dr. Jones mail, Skywalker Reporter, Rob Coleman's articles,
Inside Attack of the Clones."
(( Both above articles were translated from French by ROA/CM Shay`la. :) ))
Mark Hamill to act, direct 'Comic Book'
LOS ANGELES, California (Hollywood Reporter) -- Miramax Films, clinching a new
production-distribution deal with Creative Light Entertainment, plans to release
the semi-fictional documentary "Comic Book: The Movie," starring and directed by
Mark Hamill.
Slated for a fall release, "Comic Book" is an improv film in the vein of
"Waiting for Guffman" that follows the antics of the world's biggest comic fan,
who has been hired to direct a documentary about his favorite comic book heroes
of all time.
It was filmed on location at the world's largest comic book convention, San
Diego Comic Con, and features numerous cameos from such notable pop-culture
figures as "Spider-Man" creator Stan Lee, Playboy founder Hugh Hefner, director
Kevin Smith and "The Simpsons" creator Matt Groening, among others.
"Comic Book" was produced by Hamill and others for Creative Light Entertainment
and Amazing Invisible Ink. Creative Light's first-look deal with Miramax will
cover film, TV and home entertainment.
"We're excited about being in business with the team at Creative Light because
of their great track record of creating highly successful fan-based
productions," Miramax executive vice president Kevin Kasha said. "Our first
project together, 'Comic Book: The Movie,' promises to be an exciting
undertaking with widespread appeal to audiences young and old -- from comic book
fans to action hero fans to loyal followers of Mark Hamill."
Specializing in genre films, Creative Light has made a name for itself with the
video releases of such fan-driven product as "Stan Lee's Mutants, Monsters &
Marvels," a one-on-one documentary with Kevin Smith; "Mind Meld: Secrets Behind
The Voyage of a Lifetime," starring William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy; and the
Showtime documentary "Hail Sid Caesar! The Golden Age of Comedy."
The company's upcoming projects include the coming-of-age horror film "Creature
Unknown," the stand-up comedy film "Coming Out Party" and the satirical reality
dating film "Reality eXtreme!"
========================
I was talking to VA Darknyte about contacting Hayden Christiansen (sp?) via
email. DN already fired off one, and I think ill do a follow up if at all
possible. Also, I am going to be looking for a way to contact Ewan McGregor for
a possible HM and an interview or two. Who's knows ;P
That about wraps it up for me this week. Big thanks to CM Shay`la on her help!
She is already proving to be a valuable asset!
Until next week...

Just as an addendum...
I've been digging my way through the most ungodly pile of
schoolwork I've ever had to deal with, but still have some news:
1) The lovely people at Penny Arcade haven't responded to anything I've sent
them in the past two weeks. It looks like, unfortunately, they're not interested
in doing business with us.
2) I've received contact directly from an EH member who was at E3, and has all
manners of goodies for us. He picked up some photos, signatures, interviews,
contact information, and a beta/demo of Knights of the Old Republic! I'm waiting
to hear back from him and see some of this awesome stuff, but people do have
schedules to attend to... stay tuned!
3) I'm continuing to look into potential ways of advertising in print. There's a
lot of smaller magazines in North America who are just happy to have something
resembling an advertisement to put in their material, regardless of whether it's
paid for or not. If you know of any small publications in your area who may be
willing to put a small blurb on the EH in them, or, better still, any larger
publications that don't have steep advertising fees (we like free, people!),
forward me and Admiral Joe their contact information.
4) Many of my Honorary Member contacts have turned up nothing. I never received
word back from Kenny Baker (R2-D2). I'm thinking of contacting some of the less
well-known individuals on the Star Wars front, such as some of the musical
composers. Tracking down these people's contact information has been a real
challenge, though. ;)
5) I'm working on getting the Emperor's Hammer mentioned, even only briefly, on
as many web sites as possible. One of my goals is jediknightii.net - we'll see
how that goes. The plan, however, remains the same - the EH's name in lights in
as many places as possible. ;)
#2 is the one that really makes me pleased. It's good to see that you don't need
to be a member of the Reconnaissance Office to go out of your way for the EH! :D

Grand Master of
the Dark Jedi Brotherhood (HA Rapier)
Hello all,
As you've probably seen by now, Clans Naga Sadow and Taldryan have been
temporarily closed to membership due to low member counts. They have been
integrated into Clans CSK and Arcona respectively. Hopefully this will only be
for a short while as membership is again on the rise.
A new HeadMaster is still being sought but one should be appointed before the
end of the long holiday weekend so if your interested you need to get an app in
to myself and DGM Darkov as soon as you can.
From the Office of the DGM
Second draft of the revisions to the Vendettas is underway, translation into
plain English is commencing and will try and explain each part in detail in the
one document this time.
Work has begun on the websites for the vendettas, this is causing a few
headaches due to having to learn new fancy ways of coding things, luckily just
before writing this I had a major breakthrough and should be able to proceed
without any further learning barriers. Hopefully the code and database will be
versatile enough that it will last for multiple competitions without the need to
recode it anywhere.
Competition approval form is up on my website. Not a lot else really, looking
into new activities for the membership amongst other minor things, but my main
effort is getting things up and ready for a GJW to start, hopefully at the
beginning of July, give or take a couple of weeks.
From the Office of the CHAN
The Chancellor website is completed and can be found at http://chan.minos.net/.
I'm probably going to alter the design a little bit though, so that will be done
over the next couple days. The Medal Guide has been completely revised and has
been sent to you lot for review. So far, I've only heard from Reb Crush and
Darkov on it. I'd really like to hear what everyone has to say about it, but if
you don't say anything I assume you're happy with what I've written.
I've continued to add in medals to profiles, as well as address several medal
recommendations. Gelton Torr and Kethoron continue to work on the new medal
images, and Gelton has informed me that Kethoron is experiencing a little real
life turmoil at the moment, so production is slightly slow. So far, the
following medals are done:
Golden Lightsaber
Emerald Dagger
Ruby Scepter
Sapphire Blade
Grand Cross
Steel Cross (and upgrades)
Star of Eos (with Quills upgrade)
Dark Cross
Bronze Nova (no upgrades)
Silver Nova (no upgrades)
Gold Nova (Grand Planetary cluster)
For all the unfinished medals, all of the concept art is competed
and just awaits computer rendition. Hopefully we will see the medals
completely finished by the end of June at the latest. That's all from my office.
From the office of the Obelisk High Commander
After finishing the Obelisk site (
http://obelisk.minos.net ) I've begun work on the Obelisk Field Manual. So
far I'm just gathering pics and stats, and I will make a site design and then
plug in all the content later. Should be finished over the weekend.
I'm also going to finish the 'Obelisk Tome' that was started by OHC Khaland but
never really worked on. It's basically a history of the Obelisk, more detailed
than past attempts. So far I have some excellent stuff from old Dark Voices, and
a complete OHC/CoG history list, with dates of office.
Other than that, I have been establishing communication with the Obelisk
Summits, and will be forming the 'Obelisk War Council' yahoogroup soon for
discussion amongst the leaders.
As always, the MP comps are running in #kaiburr, and participation has risen
over the past week or so, a very encouraging sign.
That's all from me, whew, but check out my report tomorrow because I may have
some extra news in there.
From the office of the Krath High Priest
1. As Rapier said, Unity's come to an end. And with a whopping 4 submissions at
that. :P
2. Awards will be requested for that as soon as Rapsicle gets me his opinion
back *hint-hint-nudge*
3. Little word on the site yet, only that Knight is working on it and should
have a sample page for me up soon.
4. Competition planner
A. Secure GJW awards for all the good little Krath boys and girls.
B. Run-on (Summary: Krath investigate ancient Sith temple,
blah blah blah, find artifacts, kill jedi, get possessed by
ancient sith lords, blah blah blah)
C. Krath Poetry Competition
D. Research Krath Monthly Topics
E. Contemplate revival of Krath MML.
F. Begin research into possible avenues of Krath involvement in
the next GJW/Vendetta/RoS/Thingy :P
That pretty much sums it up for me. As always, any thoughts, comments, ideas,
criticism, or bribes are highly welcome. Especially bribes. :P
Well, thats looks like all for this week

Rastyn reminded me, I am slowly going into my second year as Infiltrator Wing
commander. It has been a pleasure and an honor to serve you all as the IWCOM. I
hope that I will continue to do so for many more years in the future.
IW Pilot Manual new edition soon
I am working hard on adding all the nice and flashy details as well as some of
my own expansions to the latest Infiltrator Wing Manual recieved from the IWOC
office.
Expect the best and most complete collection of Infiltrator Wing information
soon :)
Recruition competition
After the long time without an operational website new members were unable to
join the IW. This has caused our numbers to fall a bit. To resolve this
situation and bring fresh pilots to strengthen our squadrons I shall be starting
a new grand recruition competition.
Standby for details in a separate email communiqué.

As Emailed From:
Dark Prince of
the Bounty Hunter's Guild (Trench)
The Bounty Hunters Guild (BHG)
CURRENT ROSTER COUNT: 445
Sirs,
Finally, my fiction course is off the ground. Let me tell you a little bit about
it, because it is something that, I think, is entirely new in the EH; I know
that I've never seen it before.
We all know the fiction competitions that exist, both in the BHG and elsewhere.
We also know that in the BHG there exists the Citadel, which is rife with many
courses for hunters to take in order to improve their skills. But though these
courses are excellent, they don't quite simulate that classroom feel, nor give
hunters the attention they deserve.
Thus, with Dalk's assistance, I have begun a fiction course whereby three
instructors (me, Krail and Korathen) work intensively with groups of willing
students over the span of several weeks to improve their writing skills. Instead
of just getting graded, they'll get help.
Response for the first course was enthusiastic and each of the three instructors
has about a dozen students -- the perfect size for intensive work. Since it's a
class and not a contest, the sections will also have the opportunity to get to
know each other and build friendship and team spirit.
Not only will their fiction skills improve, enabling them to do better in BHG
competitions, but these improved skills will also help them throughout their
lives. I am very excited that the BHG can contribute to people's real lives as
well as to their virtual advancement in this Star Wars club.
Some other news now from areas of the BHG...
The Adjunct's office is starting a new contest! Entrants submit a one-page brief
for a new Run-On adventure. Submissions all get at least 25,000 credits, with
the winner receiving 100,000 plus bonuses.
Dragon CRA Nyk'chendhe will be the temporary Dojo Master while Conan is on his
leave of absence.
Commendations to Gen Olari, Blackbird, Conan, Nyk'chendhe and Slagar are also
awarded by the Adjunct.
JUD Ehart has awarded Chief bonuses for last month.
Project: Paradox, Specialist Skorbacca's latest brainchild, is nearing
completion. He's started a couple of competitions to allow hunters to get in on
the final phases of design. It should be unveiled shortly.
Respectfully submitted,
Dark Prince Trench
SDIR Report #1: 05.22.03
As Emailed From:
Supreme
Director of the Ubiqtorate (VA Mordann)
BUDRs - please forward this to your respective Bureaus.
AbK - there's about a 50/50 chance I'll be at the H meeting this week, so I've
CC'd you as per the FC's
new directive.
Report of the Supreme Director #1 - 22/05/03
Roster Count: 54
(UBIQ/INTORG/BOO/ANLY/PLEX/PRAE)
Total Roster Count: 188
(Inc. advisors, reserves and trainees)
1. New SDIR Appointed
Following the resignation of Admiral Troutrooper, the new SDIR
is, well... me (VA Mordann Tal'kyra, for those of you too lazy to scroll to the
bottom and check my ID line:P). Hopefully this marks the start of a new golden
age for the Intelligence Division and various other cliches people often use
when appointed to SGCOM. Feel free to chat to me on IRC or email me at
sdir@ehintel.org or
bored_of_darkness@yahoo.com.
2. New Blood
I’d like to start my report by welcoming those dedicated members of the Emperor’s Hammer who have seen fit to join our ranks in the past few days. The Intelligence Division is actively recruiting. If you’d like more information about the Intelligence Division please go here:
http://www.ehnet.org/mb/viewtopic.php?t=6690
3. Bureau Directors are now PUBLIC
Yes, you read that correctly. If your reach the exalted position
of BUDR, you may now display your ID line and will shortly have ops in #dgn_lichtor_v
(once I figure out how to set them up…), just like in the ‘good old days’ under
Stalker5, Langer and Brad.
So without further ado our Bureau Directors are…
ANLY – MAJ Johann Stalwart –
johannstalwart@yahoo.com
BOO – MAJ Davi Anthol –
adam_tkacz@hotmail.com
Plexus – LC Leonard – jcwl@gmx.net
The Manual and On-line roster should reflect this shortly. Congratulations go to
Davi Anthol who has been appointed as BOO BUDR and to Leonard who was recently
promoted to LC.
NB – This should mean that the BUDRs can now openly approach promising
individuals with a view to recruiting them to their respective Bureau. However
be sure to inform me of anyone you wish to recruit in this way BEFOREHAND.
4. Academy of Tactics
a) A quick update has been made to the General test to finally
eliminate all reference to Sectors. A major update for the test and indeed the
entire AoT will begin shortly.
b) Problems with test grading. When our previous TTDR left under unfortunate
circumstances a lot of uncompleted paperwork was left for her successor to
complete. VA Raith is working his way through all this, but naturally it is
taking some time. If you have submitted the General test to the AoT and have yet
to have a response, please email me and I will arrange your placement within a
Bureau.
5. Open UBIQ Positions - Applications are NOT being taken at this time...
Currently both ExDIR and SPC lie vacant. I'm going to hold off
for a few weeks until I appoint a new ExDIR (a chance for those interested to
impress me). For the time being there will be no SPC as I feel the BUDR of
Plexus is coping very well, rendering the position unnecessary.

Directorate Domain Report: 05.23.03
As Emailed From:
Grand Moff of
the EH Territories (AD Nightflyer)
<salute>
-Please forgive the lack of report last week. I had thought I'd gotten rid of my
trojan problem, but apparently it wasn't totally resolved, and my ISP cut me off
in the middle of last week. However, I think it's been fully dealt with now.
Let's hope!
-A former Deputy Grand Moff, Autarch (now Admiral) Lammoth, has taken the reins
of the new Directorate website and System Manual. With luck, both will be
finished soon. Lammoth is also taking pains to add information from older
versions of the Systems Manual that has been lost over the years. I, for one, am
looking forward to seeing the result! :)
-A new version of the Governor's Dispatches will be submitted to the Fleet
Commander and Executive Officer this week, hopefully to be released by my next
Domain report. Among the changes include a revision of the Directorate Guard
ranking system (as seen on the Directorate Guard web page), the addition of a
handful of medals, the addition of background information on the EH and DIR, and
the dissolving of the Minister of Indoctrination position.
-I have appointed a new Minister of Operations; this would have been released
last week, had my connection been up. Please welcome Talra to the Ministry
Council. He is a respected member of the BHG, and has proven himself in several
situations. I have full confidence that he will prove to be a valuable addition
to the Directorate.
-As always, the Ministry Council has plans for new competitions... please send
any ideas you have to the mailing list so that we can get as many opinions as
possible. :)
That's all for this week.

We filtered out all inactives, in addition to rDB members (there

but I have no doubt the database will change that (I'm hoping it'll be at
least as popular as nationstates, although it's equipped with so much more).

— News –
I'd say this week was fairly productive. Work on the database is finally and
speedily being done. I believe we have the Planetary Profiles figured out,
although I'm sure there's much more to it than what I was shown. :) Minister
Demerzel has certainly proved himself capable in his first week as M:REC. All
CHS Reports are now archived on the forum, he has completed a summary of
Chancellor Slegr's second term, and has somehow obtained an active roster. It
seems we still have quite a few members--most of which are Liberal, not that it
matters anymore.
I was very sick this week. I'm sure some of you noticed that I was online at
irregular times--I've been home from school and such, getting 18 hours of sleep
(hence why I'm on so early in the morning and afternoon). I apologize for my
inactivity, though--I just haven't had much will to get online, especially while
I have an excuse not to do an essay that requires a computer. I'll be on a great
deal this weekend, however, because of memorial day and because we intend to get
a lot of work done on the database. I might not be on IRC, but you should know
my AIM SN and e-mail by now. :)
I wanted to reiterate this in my last report, but we still have 3 High Council
positions available: Minister of Communications, Minister of Education, and
Minister of State. The requirements are stated in CHS Report
#20, but here they are again (in case this gets put on the EH domain):

Senate Theme Song!
That’s right, I’ve finally decided to have an official Senate theme song! It’s
kind of self explanatory, but there will be several categories of submission:
humorous, official, and Star Wars (existing SW music by John Williams). You may
submit an unlimited amount of songs to each category. However, be sure I give
you confirmation after each one so my e-mail account doesn’t get run out of
storage capacity. Give credit to the artist/composer.
Official notice is below:
The Senate needs a theme song! The competition will last 1 month (5/9 - 6/9),
and all submissions are to be sent to me (
chs@emperorshammer.org ), and DCH
Blackblade ( sendakkon@yahoo.com )
There are no limitations on submissions, and the top 3 will be awarded the
following:
1st Place: Adamantine Seal w/ Platinum Ribbon [AS-PR]
2nd Place: Adamantine Seal w/ Gold Ribbon [AS-GR]
3rd Place: Adamantine Seal w/ Silver Ribbon [AS-SR]
Note that there aren’t placements for each category. The official Senate theme
song will be given first place and the other two, regardless of the category
they fall under, will be chosen based on how much we liked them.

Lord Ambassador's Report
VA Darknyte
Well, this marks the end of my third month as LA, it's been a fun ride so far!
Not a great deal to report this week, it's been fairly quiet, but we'll see what
we can come up with.
Biggest news this week is that the club known as TRIC seems to have dissolved.
It's still a bit sketchy right now, but it appears that most of the CS has
resigned due to some internal struggles and tensions. It's mostly pretty boring
stuff to people not in TRIC so I won't go into details much. It just appears
that a few people started to have a struggle with the FC and in the end everyone
got mad and went home. Via con dios, TRIC...we hardly knew ye.
The AWOL check is over, it appears that almost everyone reported in. I think the
only people who failed to report in were RA Jan Wemmel and RA Tomaas Banys. If
you guys are reading this, report in ASAP so I don't remove you from the roster.
Also, this week we lost one member, but have gained another. CPT Aeolus was
removed from his position in the AG for doing some things he shouldn't have
done, but MAJ Daniel Stephens has came out of retirement to join the AG. So, all
in all we're still on even ground.
Destavol is thinking of starting a Run-On on the AG message board, so check in
from time to time to see if he's gotten it started yet. Maybe this can jumpstart
the AG and get some of you to wake up and come to life. This week I will
contacting each of you via email and assigning you a club to maintain diplomatic
contact with. Nothing fancy is needed, just keep current on their events, talk
to them on IRC if possible, and report in to the Magister weekly on any
important news from your assigned club, easy peasy.
That's all the news, but now I have something I'd like to say. This week I got 2
reports from 2 different clubs about EH members either causing problems in their
channels or attempting to takeover one of their channels. This kind of stuff
isn't acceptable and just really isn't cool. When you're in the channel of an
other club, you're a representative of the EH, act accordingly. Anything you do
reflects on the EH if you're a known EH member, keep that in mind. We don't need
other clubs to think the EH is a bunch of degenerates who do nothing but cause
problems and try to undermine authority.
That's it for this week, this is Darknyte signing off...until we meet again!
In Service to the Empire,
Vice Admiral Darknyte, EH Lord Ambassador

received word from High Colonel Trigit regarding Daemon's memorial, the FES has
invited the entire EH to attend if they wish, so I will paste his email below.
"Just a heads up, Kaardoon has set a date for Daemon's memorial service. You
and the entire EH are invited to attend this, and we would be honored by your
attendance.
The date is: This Wednesday, May 21st at at 8 PM EST.

JediCon 2003: fans will be fans!
1999. Sao Paulo. The Brazilian Jedi Councils take a pioneering step by
organizing the first Brazilian national
Star Wars convention, the JediCon. In this unforgettable event, fans attended
lectures, chatted, and cheered for their favorite character in the costume
contest. Above it all, they had the chance to meet fellow fans to share their
passion for the saga. Turned into an annual event due to its huge success, the
JediCon has been attracting an average of 500 participants each year, which can
be considered an impressive number for a local sci-fi related event. In each of
its editions, the convention has remained loyal to its primary goal: to foster
integration among Brazilian Star Wars fans.
2003. For the fourth time in Sao Paulo, the JediCon consolidates its innovative
character by putting forth changes both in its format and program. The key-word
this year is, more than ever, INTEGRATION.
First of all, the Sao Paulo Jedi Council, organizer of the event, is inviting
other fan-clubs to take part in the convention, thus expanding the primary goal
of the JediCon to include fans not only of Star Wars, but also of other areas
such as science fiction, fantasy, and comics. After all, every fan has something
in common to share: a passion for something.
As for the program, besides the already traditional lectures, exhibits, and
costume contests, this year’s event will also include:
- workshops for the participants to learn, for example, to make
objects related to the event’s themes using
recyclable material such as paper and plastic bottles;
- a maquette contest;
- Jedi Arena: simulations of lightsaber duels using martial arts equipment and
security gear.
The JediCon will probably take place on the last weekend of June (28 and 29),
which coincides with the beginning of school vacations. As last year, a T-shirt
of the event will be the ticket for admittance. An average of 750 participants
are expected to attend each day of the convention, making up a total of 1500
people for the whole event. The place will be the same as 2002, Oficina Cultural
Amacio Mazzaropi, and a few places are being considered taking into account
their premises and convenience of location. More detail on:

As Recommended By:
COM-COOA/RA Mell
Kerrigan/ISD Subjugator
(Please see Training Manual for rank descriptions)
I hereby present a request that the Combat Operations
Officer, VA Kyle Katarn be promoted to rank of Admiral.
Kyle has shown competence in carrying out his duties for the past 8 months
working to raise Multiplayer awareness and with the help of his staff has
standardised the system and allowed for medals to be awarded swiftly.
His work with other clubs to attempt to get inter club competition has been well
thought out and once implemented will help to boost the EH's profile and show
that we lead from the front.
I have not seen a COO work so hard for this club in all the existence of the
position and a promotion is not only justified, but well over due.

Greetings Sirs,
I write today to bring you several recommendations:
The first is for my Command Attaché,
Admiral Cyric, for the promotion to Fleet Admiral. I realise the maximum
rank a CA may be promoted to is Admiral, but you set a precedent allowing CA:IO
Leeson's promotion to FA not so long ago. Had I known you'd allow a promotion
such as this, my recommendation for Admiral Cyric's promotion would have been
submitted many months ago. Cyric has been in the EH for five years (today
actually marks that), and during this time he's held several notable positions,
but the most influential were Commodore of the Grey Wolf, Battlegroup Commander
of the ASF and currently my CA. His time as COM and BGCOM saw huge success, both
in the growth and activity of his command. He then lent his considerable
expertise to the Flight Office where he serves as a rock. In addition to his
roster duties, he's constantly tracking Flag Reports and activities, as well as
my sound board for ideas and problems. One of those people who is always working
in behind the scenes, this promotion would go some way in giving Cyric the
recognition he deserves.
(Please see the Operations Manual for medal descriptions)
My second recommendation is a continuation of AD Joe's rec for
Admiral Proton, Commodore of the
SSSD Sovereign. But it's actually for the Imperial Cross, as opposed to the GOE.
The reason for this is that Proton has already been awarded the GOE with his
Gallows persona, and I think his work, past and current, is worthy of the
Imperial Cross. I'd echo everything Joe said...like Cyric, Proton is another
stalwart member of the EH who does his job without complaint from me or him to
the highest of standards. He's one of those Officers who constantly looks after
his pilots' interests, and the TIE Corps is better for it.
Thank you for your considerations,
High Admiral Priyum
Flight Officer & TIE Corps Commander

Officer (AD Mike)
And justice for all...
Another busy week for me. Most of my time, I spend with my girlfriend, however I
still have enough time to perform my TAC duties. All HSs have been processed
today, all new submissions have been added to Tactical Database by my new (soon
to be) CA. Everything looks ok.
Oh well, I don't know what more to say. So let's get down to business.
Mission Creation Courses
Right now I have information about XTM/1 and /2 only (I am prof).
I would like all mission creation PROFs to send weekly stats to me, so I will
include them in my report. Advertisement is always good and increases number of
new submissions. Our compendium grows and everyone is happy. So, right now only
XTMs' stats.
XvT Mission Creation (XTM/1) - 301 graduates
XvT Advanced Mission Creation (XTM/2) - 107 graduates
Next week I will try to include all mission creation course here, with links and status. We will see how it improves our status.
IW battles updated
I would like to thank IWTAC and IWCS for the support they show
me. It's really nice to hear that someone appreciates your work and dedication.
I owe you one :) Thanks guys.
XWA and XvT/BoP engineers
Check Mission Creation Message Board for more details. I am
still looking for some XvT/BoP and XWA engineers. I don't need more testers, so
please do not apply.
Final warning
I am sick of people who do no read report or new, so I am going
to say it last time. From now on, every mail to me, asking about update, wrong
BSF, application, etc. will be ignored. I encourage you all to add your PINs and
emails to your ID lines, so it will be easier for us, command staff. Thank you
for your attention.
Also, one word to people who follow my guideline about pilot file (zip) naming.
Some of you do it wrong. I will explain one again how to do it. First you have
battle ID like TIE-TC or XvT-DB, then you add number. It must always be 3 digit.
so add 0 if it's below 100, and 00 if it's below 10. So you now have TIE-TC 003.
Now you add - and you have TIE-TC 003 -, and then your TC name or nickname and
PIN. Remember, name-PIN not PIN-name. So now you have: TIE-TC 003 - Marcin
Szydlowski 3203.zip. Easy?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TAC3K countdown!
More battles and missions released and we are very close to our ultimate goal!
We need only 106 to reach TAC3K! Good work Tactical Staff, keep it up!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mission Creation Corner
No tips this week. No one wants medal these days?
Oath of Loyalty
New mission creation competition starts on June 1st. It's about EH vs rDB
situation and it's been approved by GA Ronin himself. I guess it's worth trying,
so keep your pants on and get ready to rock :)
Project Revive
TCC:XWA Master has started new project. Him and his staff will be updating XWA
battle and mission, to correct all bugs, add EH crests and other things like
that. I like that kind of initiative. Good idea and keep up good work Master.
Tactical Office Person of the Week:
This week I've selected Carl Lost as Person of the Week. As recommended by
TCC:TIE:
Carl Lost. He could arguably be nominated every week, along with Cray Mikalen, for constant willingness to take on many assignments, and the ability to accomplish them quickly and well.
Great job Carl. You have earned 2 points. I remind all TCCs to
send their PotW recommendations. So current standings look as follows:
Penfold - 2
Kalith Jaenus - 1
Abel Malik - 3
Styles - 3
TK-9780 - 3
Carl Lost - 5
Angel - 1
Atmos - 1
Cray - 2

Greetings all to this week's report from the Flight Office.
News -
Flag Staff Changes
This past week or so has seen a significant number of changes amongst the TIE
Corps Flag Officers. The Colossus received a new Wing Commander following LC
Shadd's departure. Many congratulations to the former Omicron CMDR, Lieutenant
Colonel Wysseri Arestar.
General Drake and Lieutenant Colonel Aeishline both resigned from their Wing
Commander positions (Wings IX and III respectively) due to increasingly busy RL
commitments. They were good Officers who did their jobs to high standards and
the Flight Office is sad to see them go. Both them and Shadd will receive the
Gold Star of the Empire in recognition of their invaluable work (Aeishline has
also been promoted to Colonel).
As far as I know, the Wing III WC position is NOT open to applications. IX was
open, but the choice has been made and is awaiting confirmation from the
relevant parties.
Email Changes
The ChalCOM, RA Sephiroth, has changed his email to
tc-sephiroth@tcinternet.net and
the SO, Admiral Zoltar, has changed his to
zoltar_2@yahoo.com. Please update your address books accordingly.
Tau Commander Selected
It took a while, but the new Squadron Commander for the Elite Tau Squadron has
been selected. Congratulations go out to Major Adren Silvori (Darkmage in the DB
I believe). He has a fine history of Command, myself and GM Rapier have high
hopes for him and the Squadron in the coming future.
Training Officer
Admiral Keldorn is back from leave and he should catch up with the competitions
awaiting approval very soon. Please note that he'll be back on leave from
tomorrow until Friday evening.
TIE Corps Meeting
Every Sunday in #tiecorps, undernet @ 9PM GMT / 4PM EST
My thanks to Admiral Cyric for taking over hosting of our weekly after my
untimely departure last night (Die BT!). Many thanks to Rear Admiral Mell for
hosting trivia, and congrats to LT Mark Pooler for winning.
Respectfully,

Internet Office News
This week, the Internet Office has been working on plans for a brand new massive
project which will be a joint effort between the IO, WO/CGM, FO, COMM, TO and
possibly more. While it's extremely early to say anything other than that, we
are currently working on developing the idea, which has the possibility of
becoming something even more revolutionary than Project Hawkeye.
FA Leeson has informed me that due to limitations of Flash, he will not be able
to successfully complete the anticipated EH Radio Player in Flash. Sorry, folks.
There's a brand new counter available at the EH Counters Service (
http://counters.minos.net ) , with a
more digital and technical feel. All webmasters can sign up for free counters,
regardless of where you host!
Not much else this week except the EHNet.org design is almost done. CPT Drako
also did one, but it is being saved for use with the new project.

The meeting log archive has been put online at http://theholo.net/logs/. I still
have some logs which I have to go through, and some which are online need date
corrections. I will be putting TIE Corps logs on the site shortly.
As mentioned in the IO report, I am working with Ari on a massive new project.
Details are censored for the time being.
I have mostly completed the required modifications to the forum code to
facilitate the awarding of MoC's, but I am delaying integration pending the
release of phpBB 2.2 which will contain many new features. Some of which include
improved administration functions, the ability to put forums in a 'sub folder'
(which will be most useful for squadron forums), improved user control panel,
and file attachments.
In the mean time, I have focused my energy on completing the COMM manual. Some
of the categories covered include installing, and using mIRC, AIM, ICQ, and MSN
Messenger, online etiquette, commonly used chat acronyms, and detailed
information on IRC.

SO Office Report - 03 18 May 2003
<Salute>
My apologies for the inconsistent nature of my reports of late. End-of-semester
craziness had me down, as I'm sure many of you can empathize.
Though belated, thanks to High Admiral Priyum Patel and Grand Admiral Ronin for
the promotion to Admiral. I've been eager for a promotion for quite some time,
and am giddy now that I've gotten it.
The only serious issue to bring to your attention of late is the persistent
violation of the Article of War and IRC Code of Conduct
chapter dealing with the disrespect of superior officers and/or Channel
Operators in public. This is a rancorous issue that must be addressed before it
gets any worse.
Disrespect or public arguing with a Channel Operator is a serious offense, and
leads quickly to an anarchical mess. It has come to the point where the
mere simple activities enjoined by an Op to police and maintain decorum in a
channel is met with cries of "ops abuse!" from a multitude of people either
unversed in the CoCs/AoW or determined to belittle a superior for their own
benefit. Proper procedures are set out in the Code of Conduct for the private
messaging and discussion with said Op if any questions were to arise due to
actions taken.
If the problem can not be resolved in this manner, appropriate logs should be
sent to me for further investigation. Any deviation from this procedure at this
point, most especially crying "ops abuse" or arguing with a superior in a public
forum, will be met with a harsh response. I hate to have to resort to anything
more than request, but the problem has gotten quite out of hand.
In other news, there isn't much! It's a continued welcome respite from trouble,
and special thanks go out to a certain defecting cadre of former officers for
taking many of the troubled folk with them. As always, any questions or concerns
may be e-mailed to me at
so@emperorshammer.org, or catch me or one of my staff members on IRC. We're
always around to help you however we're able.
Thank you for your time.

Science
Officer (FA Ender mBind)
"He dares to be a fool, and that is the first step in the
direction of wisdom"
<salute>
Welcome to my seventeenth public report as a Science Officer, incredibly late...
(Sorry, was busy in RL, building ships, patches and such :) ...but that means I
got plenty to report:
Science Office News:
1. Biggest news I can't tell you much about, which is frustrating... because its
really cool and great looking - but also classified till TAC does his part: AD
Darkhill finished his "Uber Project"! *huggles Den* Don't worry:
It'll be released to the club very soon and with a bit of luck I'll be able to
tell you everything in next week's report.
2. The SCO site has gotten a new php database news page curtsy of FA Leeson, which means I'm finally able to post all SCO news there as well! *huggles Leeson* The php database version of the File Archive is practically ready as well (its up, just needs admin functions).
3. Lots of patching news again, as the XvT/BoP/TIE95 Ship Patch project is in its finalizing phases. A fairly chronological layout of what has been released:
- Standalone Transport Patches for XvT/BoP/TIE95: Due to AD Den
Darkhill's efforts I've just released 3 separate patches to make Transports and
Shuttles flyable in TIE95, XvT and BoP. The TIE95 version is an update for the
existing "Shuttlefly" patch and the XvT and BoP ones do give a completely new
experience.
- TIE Phantom: (Mk.1, from "Rebel Assault") for X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter has been
released to the patch archive. It uses "Custom Fighter Slot 1".
- TIE Shuttle: Has been released for XvT (Slot #11). The TIE Shuttle was used to
ferry over CPT Needa in ESB.
- TIE Boarder: Has been released for XvT (Slot #10). This Boarding Craft was
supposed to be in ANH.
- Spectre Missile Boat: The model has been fully updated in all patches, the
Fleet Manual and Order of Battle so it resembles what it should look like more.
- Imperial Troop Transport: Has been OPTed, tested and released for XvT (Slot
#31). "The "Imperial Troop Transport" is one of the older and by far the largest
of the Telgorn Corporation's line of ships and was commissioned at the dawn of
the Empire as what was actually a small "corvette" or armed freighter. The
principle behind the craft was that it could land up to 100 troops or their
armoured equipment from space and also offer support on the ground - functioning
as a armoured personnel carrier itself. (Apparently one
intercepted and destroyed a Jawa Crawler that had been carrying the Death Star
plans a few days before the Battle Yavin) While very successful in its assigned
task of landing troops and equipment the ITTR proved to be under armed when in
space and too large as a surface vehicle - which lead to the smaller Telgorn
Transports line, all of which are reactions to experiences with the ITTR. In the
Empire these transports quickly ended up replacing the ITTR and finally it was
replaced by Cygnus' Landing Craft.". (picture included)
- Interceptor Enforcement Craft: Has been OPTed, tested and released for TIE95
(T/F slot) and XvT (Slot#10). "The Interceptor Series is a design which dates
back to the Old Republic and started with a fairly simple combat air speeder for
atmospheric defence of ground targets (the mk.1). As such they became fairly
popular with law enforcement agencies, which however boosted its possibilities
to be able to pursue criminals into space. Something which MandalMotors improved
upon with the next version. (The mk.2). With the start of the Clone Wars they
were upgraded to become fully functional star fighters (the mk.3) before the
design was left entirely in favour of its successor, the Pursuer Enforcement
Craft - which was designed
as a star fighter from the start." (picture included)
- Pursuer Enforcement Craft: Has been released for TIE95 (T/B Slot) and XvT
(Slot #11) and XWA, as a replacement patch for the original which adds EH
specific textures.
- Preybird Fighter: Has been released for TIE95 (T/F Slot) and XvT (Slot#10). Is
in XWA already.
- Skipray Blastboat: Has been released for TIE95 (T/B Slot) and XvT (Slot#11).
Is in XWA already.
- TIE95 patches: We've gotten reports about particular TIE95 craft (the T/Ph and
M/GUN for example) behaving strangely. this is because their roll is lower then
that of the T/B and apparently TIE can't handle that. All have been updated to
fix the rolling-bug they might have had if their roll rating was lower then 50.
All should fly fine now.
- XvT patches: Some have been updated to make them install better side by side.
- BoP patches: Bug fixing the T-V patch (slot#11) now, hoping to release quite
some after that. (all the ones released lately for TIE and XvT too.)
- XWA patches: Yes, yes, these WILL be released... one day >;)
4. Our starshatter mod project has suffered a setback because the change of policy by its creator. Apparently there will be no more new beta versions released till the full game comes out, with a demo. At the moment it looks like the full game will be not-free, but the demo will be... Making it such that the possibilities of out mod are currently in limbo about what will be cut out of the game to make the demo. Advantage is that it means the full release of the game will be soon, and that we will in fact have a mod for it about the same time - which would be a near first in history. (usually a mod comes at least a year after the original game)
5. I've added a new, recreational, project which involves Mutant Ewoks and Experiments, I hope you'll like it. >:) (Disclaimer: Its not real, we do not condone "cruelty to animals" ;)) http://www.minos.net/~sco/project/ewoks
6. I'll be removing the SCO site mirror on the gimmie.tudelft.nl server because I'll be moving away from there very soon. (A reason why you'll see a bit less of me on IRC.). Anyone that has ideas on where we could have a mirror, please contact me.
7. Additionally it'd like to add the following which might not
be fun: DO NOT contact people outside the EH as representative of the EH if
you're not. We have a strong indication that the change of policy in the star
shatter team was brought on by EHers whining to them. If any EHer is to contact
such parties like game creators, or people like Troy Dangerfield (mission editor
maker) - let it be the science office, the tactical office or anyone else that
actually knows what they're talking about. It's a good chance that our star
shatter mod is now in trouble because of people making trouble outside normal
procedure - and if I find out that it is, you can be sure I'll complain to the
proper authorities about those people.
Science Office Status:
CA: Admiral Darkhill has finished the Windows version of the "Uber Project" (and
has the DOS version near ready) and the transport patches for TIE95, XvT and BoP.
Its simply incredible was Den has been doing... expect a big medal to be recced
very soon:
SCOA: LC Shadd has probably overworked himself on the star shatter project and
being WC at the same time... as such he's taking a few weeks off.
SCOA: LT Kweeky has been running and updating the IRCbot in #sco - our channel.
Site: The Science Office site can be found at
http://sco.minos.net or via the redirect
http://scienceoffice.isCool.net.
FA Leeson has added a php news page and is in progress of adding a php file
archive. The staff page has been updated to include some pictures of all the
staff members, lots of updates done to the patch archive of course, plus some to
the FM and OoB - and added the Mutant Ewok Project site.:.
Science Office Projects:
Star Wars - Imperium: The project's goal is to modify the Starshatter game into
a viable new platform for primarily the TIE Corps and Infiltrator Wing, perhaps
branching out to other SGs as well. This week the project was officially started
and got immediately pulled "into the century of the fruitbat" manually by LC
Shadd, who's been making excellent progress.
XvT/BoP/TIE95 Ship patches: This project's goal is to add all the original and
Order of Battle craft that are still "missing" from these games, like the SSD in
TIE and XvT, the Medium Transport in all etc. This project is
drawing closer and closer to its end for especially TIE and XvT: started on BoP
and made the needed BHE modules to do so.
Uber Project: Finished! Yay!
Finishing up:
I think that's it - If I've forgotten anything or if you have comments,
suggestions or corrections, let me know via email or look us up at #sco. Don't
forget that all the projects are described in more detail on the SCO
site.
(Use only mindb_ender@hotmail.com
for official SCO mails.) or ICQ (9706474). Preferably do not mail large files to
me, but DCC them via IRC - I'm practically always online at #sco, #emperor's_hammer
and #tiecorps using the nick MindB_ndr (or variations.)
All my SCO reports are available online as well: you can reach them on the SCO
site:
http://www.minos.net/~sco/reports/index.html or on the TIE Corps site, CS
reports.
Until next time, good luck and have fun!
