Welcome to the Emperor's Hammer News Network,

This is Maximus Centurios Ordo here to bring you live coverage of our glorious Empire's latest wargames event, Imperial Storm 4!

Today the fleet has broken up into three teams to make preparations into the Imperial Storm 4 wargame simulation, ran by none other than Vice Admiral Phoenix Berkana who is running as the Simulation officer for the event.

The teams participating are:
-The Challenge, ran by Vice Admiral Silwar Naiilo, who are last years winners.
-The Hammer, ran by COL Genie of Lambda Squadron as Vice Admiral Berkana will be running the whole event.
-The Warrior, ran by the fleets newest Commodore Vice Admiral Marenta

All three captains have brought their flagships to Zaadja Station orbiting the planet Zaadja to discuss terms on this years Imperial Storm and it would seem as though things have already heated up, primarily in the cantina area of the station. What was reported as an all out brawl between the team captains have now ended up with, surprisingly, new alcoholic beverages in honor of the three team captains. The Chalwar, The Hamie, and and The Warenta. How this exactly came about, we might never know.

Nevertheless, this year seems to be a promising excitement between the three teams once again. Will The Challenge return victorious once again? Will The Hammer rip victory away from the other teams? Will The Warrior show triumph even in the face of disadvantage? Will my cousin, Major LegionX, STOP SENDING PICTURES OF CHEESE!!! . . . .* cough *

Stay Tuned this exciting month on the EHNN! The ONLY trusted news network approved by the ISB.

Welcome all to Imperial Storm! The TIE Corps WarGame that pits all three of our Star Destroyers against each other.

The game kicks off Friday the 8th of April and will run for 30 days, each day being one turn of the game. Each of our team Captains (VA Silwar, VA Marenta and COL Genie) have assembled a fleet in discussions with their ships which will be used to take and hold worlds on a map of the area we currently call home. Whenever opposing teams meet, a battle will ensue and this is where YOU, the pilots of the TIE Corps play a key role. How you fly will determine how well your team does, and who will take the bragging rights when the game ends on May 8th.
