In 32 ABY, Emperor's Hammer forces arrived at the Assurian Halo to free the planets from the Ishtari insectoids' control and hopefully neutralize them for good. After a month long campaign full of small battles that slowly chipped away at both the Emperor's Hammer and Ishtari forces, the Emperor's Hammer was able to push into the core planets of the system. Vicious fighting lasted until the last day, where the TIE Corps eventually proved triumphant.

In 33 ABY, Emperor's Hammer forces arrived at the Tkon Rift, an expanse of space that the Kilji Illumine sought to pass through enroute to dominating this region of space and then the galaxy. Over the course of a month forces of the TIE Corps and Secret Order put up a mighty fight, contesting every star system in the Rift and destroying well over half of the Kilji starfleet before the enemy forces fell back. Participants in the campaign were recognized with award of the General Campaign Medal - 2013 Tkon Rift, with the blue and white ribbon alluding to the insignia of the Chiss Ascendancy in recognition of the newly established relationship between the groups.

MajorWhat is there to say about Ranger that hasn't already been said? While his tiny horns may be lacking, his tenacity and drive to improve the TC definitely aren't. He has been been an invaluable addition to Lambda Squadron since he joined us. He runs competitions, he keeps the Lambda chat active, and he's one of our most active pilots. On top of this, he constantly seeks to help the wider TC, first becoming a COOA and eventually becoming the RO. No one can say whether the promotion to RA made his head so big that he has a hard time wearing his helmet, or if it's just his horns getting in the way. Even still, no one can say that this Zabrak is undeserving of this next promotion, as very few in the TC deserve it more than he does. Without further ado, I am incredibly happy to recommend that TheBlackxRanger be promoted to the rank of Major. Good job, Ranger!Promotion recommended by: LC Solohan50 |

Commendation of Excellence Presented to AD TheBlackxRanger in recognition of his work in developing the Reconnaissance Office web site. Not one to take the easy option with some web site editing tool, TheBlackxRanger sought feedback and approached the web site project as an opportunity to improve his knowledge of HTML, CSS, and the Visual Studio Code application. The final result is a clean and concise repository of references for Reconnaissance Office-related materials and social media sites that is also fully accessible on a mobile device. By fully hosting the materials on our own emperorshammer.org server, the web site will be easily maintainable now and into the future. AD TheBlackxRanger’s commitment to duty reflects great credit upon himself and the Reconnaissance Office of the Emperor’s Hammer. Recommended by: HA Turtle Jerrar |
