Competition Reminder - TIE Golf Invitational Final RoundOur own CPT Jagged Fell III is currently running a nine-round TIE Golf tournament! If you haven't played TIE Golf before, the goal is pretty straightforward: obtain the lowest possible score without hitting 0! There's a few extra conditions (no cheats, no destroying friendlies, laser scores will be normalized so that you don't benefit in TIE Fighter from firing at nothing), but in general, it's all about completing a mission while doing the absolute least possible! We're entering into the last hole, but it's not too late to join in! The latest hole is for XWA-FREE #133 and runs through Friday, December 13th! For more information, check out the competition details as well as the TIE Golf competition thread on the Discord server. And if you'd like to know more about TIE Golf as a competition, check out the EH wikipedia page for TIE Golf! |

You're welcome to create entries for one or more of the above four entities! Banners should be 1500 x 1500 pixels in size. Submissions can be emailed to to@emperorshammer.org.

To qualify, make sure you submit a screenshot to CM Sid_amos at darth.sidious819@gmail.com showing your end of season placement and leaderboard (if applicable). I'll send a reminder out about this one as we approach the end of the season (January 28, 2025), but this is a good one to have on your radar if you're playing Hunters.

Competition Reminder - SWTOR Conquest 2: The Search for More Conquest, Season 5Friendly reminder that there is an ongoing competition for SWTOR players for earning conquest points while being a member of one of the Emperor's Hammers guilds! The official guilds are on the Star Forge server ("Emperor's Hammer" for the Sith Empire and "Infiltrator Wing" for the Republic). Each week, the top three pilots in each faction that earn the most conquest points are awarded Iron Stars and "placement points", with placement points being used to determine monthly awards, as well as final standings for season awards and the title of Legacy Conquest Champion! Additionally, an ORA is given (up to two, one for each guild) for every pilot that earns over 100,000 conquest points. If you're a SWTOR player, I recommend reviewing the competition details for more information! Season 5 ends this month, on December 17, 2024. Please reach out if you have any questions! |
