Greetings pilots of the Hammer!

This past week has seen membership continue to climb with several new members of the Hammer, some of whom have already earned their promotions to Lieutenant, fantastic work! It has also seen the final round of the Season Two of the Trivia for the Hammered, more on this below.
The Hammer Crew Compendium competition is going strong and I have been sent several excellent characters, so please get yours in if you wish to take part. Finally LC Genie and I have another competition in the works, with the Lambda Tour of Duty being elevated to the Hammer Tour of Duty. More on this will be coming your way shortly.

Hammer Crew Compendium
The Hammer is more than just its pilots, we have a Star Destroyer to flesh out. Over the next 6 weeks you can come up with characters for our mighty ship, be it the chief navigator, the cook, the engineers, the janitor... you name it.
Submissions need to be at least 400 words long, and will be scored by the Commodore. The best submission will receive a IS-SR, second place receiving a IS-BR.
For ideas check out an earlier competition which gave us these characters.
* Note
If two pilots submit characters for the same position, we can modify them slightly after the competition.
Imperial Storm III
Imperial Storm is a turn based war-game that pits all three Battlegroups against the others over a map of the planetary systems that we are currently near.
The teams will do battle against each other for control of the map, earning points for holding systems and attempting to deprive the enemy of their own.
Battles are fought using a scoring system that takes into account all Legion (LoC/LoS) earned during the combat window, alongside the average scores of a teams top 4 SP pilots.
Full rules can be found here: http://www.isdhammer.org/ImperialStorm_III.pdf
The winning Team at the end of the 30 turn game will see all participating pilots earn a TIE Corps Meritorious Unit Award (MUA).
The top 6 scorers in each of the 3 streams (top LoC count, top LoS count, top HS% SP count) will earn Iron Stars as below:
1st: IS-GW
2nd: IS-SW
3rd: IS-SW
4th: IS-BW
5th: IS-BW
6th: IS-BW
IS-CWs will be awarded to pilots for each set of 1000 Legions earned over the course of the competition during battles their fleet is involved in.
IS-CWs will also be awarded to pilots that complete all or all but one of the SP missions assigned to their fleet in battles over the course of the competition.
