Imperial Storm

Background

Imperial Storm was a turn based game first run during 2018 using a set of rules drafted by GN Jarek La'an and run by GN Phoenix Berkana. The original game consisted of three teams (TCCS, Hammer, and Warrior) using fleets built using the XWA points system to battle it out over a grid based map. Battles were conducted using different gaming platforms based upon which units were present in any given battle (SP for battles including capital ships, MP for battles made up of starfighters only).

Cooperative Campaign Period

Starting with Imperial Storm V, the competition was changed to a cooperative wargame with the three active battlegroups working together to fight an NPC enemy (controlled by Jarek La'an).

Imperial Storm V - 2023
The First Recon Division arrived at the Assurian Halo to free the planets from the control of the Ishtari and hopefully destroy them for good in Imperial Storm V. After a month long campaign full of small battles that slowly chipped away at both the TC and Ishtari forces, the TC 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, dealing significant damage to the Ishtari.

Imperial Storm VI - 2024
The Tkon Rift was a vast nebula that made up part of the Chaos in the Unknown Regions. After agreeing to help the Chiss and other worlds of the Cluster against the Kilji Illumine, the forces of the Emperor's Hammer moved to defend the Rift. In the first phase of the campaign (Imperial Storm VI), the Kilji were able to conquer much of the Tkon Rift, but were halted from advancing further into the Cluster by the Emperor's Hammer.

Imperial Storm VII - 2025
The TIE Corps had its first encounter with First Order forces. After several engagements, the TC forces were able to capture the FO fuel depot in the Gasriese System, giving the fleet a jumping off point for further forays into the Unknown Regions of the galaxy.

The TIE Corps attempted to push further into First Order controlled territory. Despite initial success with capturing several systems, the FO mounted a heavy counterattack, forcing the TC forces to withdraw back to the Gasriese fuel depot.
