Journey to the Unknown Regions Arc

Prelude

ABY 28 (8 02 2020)

Lord Grand Admiral Darth Rapier has sensed a dark presence coming from the unknown regions. After conferring with the current Grand Master of the Dark Brotherhood and the Tie Corps Commander it has been decided that a portion of the Emperor’s Hammer Strike fleet must move to respond to this potential threat (or potential ally).

To this end the Emperor’s Hammer will be split into two groups. The First Recon Division and The Home Guard.

The First Recon Division will be formed from the most elite ships and squadrons the Emperor’s Hammer has to offer as well as moving the entire Dark Brotherhood on to the SSD Avenger and packing away supplies for an extended stay in potentially hostile territory.

The remaining ships and bases of the Emperor’s Hammer have been reformed into the Home Guard. Centered around the SSSD Sovereign and left under the command of Sector Admiral Kawolski, their sole purpose it to protect what we have and make sure we have a home to come back too.

All Emperors’ Hammer and Dark Brotherhood command staff will relocate to the SSD Avenger with all Tie Corps command staff on their appropriate flag ships.

The First Recon Division will consist of the following ships:

First Recon Command
  • SSD Avenger
  • Various support ships
Battle Group 1
  • ISD Hammer
  • Various support ships
Battle Group 2
  • ISD Warrior
  • Various support ships
Battle Group 3
  • ISD Challenge
  • Various support ship
Battle Group 4
  • ISD Grey Wolf
  • Various support ships
Battle Group 5
  • ISD Immortal
  • Various support ships
Battle Group 6
  • ISD Relentless
  • Various support ship

Check the Order of Battle for exact make up.

Mission parameters include a move along galactic north into the Unknown Regions in the area of Bakura, from there we will proceed cautiously and investigate everything we can find that might give us leads on this hidden dark presence.

The purpose of the First Recon Division is not to engage the New Republic or their allies (though we will if they present a threat to our mission). We will not be stealthy (obviously) but we will not engage unless attacked. The size of the force is designed to deter weaker foes and from what recon has told me forces in the area are minimal but we will be ready at all times.

To all Emperor’s Hammer members:

Feel free to come up with competitions, run-ons, missions, and whatever else you can think of that promotes this new story line.

I leave it to you to fill in the gaps as we reduce our effective Order of Battle and move into a new story arc for the EH.

This January the EH year will become 29 ABY, that leaves the First Orders public reveal 3 years away at 32aby and that is what we are working towards. This story arc should take us up to the First Orders arrival in the galaxy proper with potentially some interaction as we investigate the Unknown regions.

The Journey Begins

ABY 28 (10 02 2020)
Final preparations have finally been made and the last ships of the First Recon Division have reported in as ready. Over the last 2 months ships have been provisioned and refit for extended operations. The Fleet has been reorganized as shown on the Order of Battle at https://www.emperorshammer.org/oob.php.

Now that the TCCOM has finished determining where he will hoist his flag for the next year it is time to set off.

Over the next 8 weeks we will be slowly making our way through the densely packed and hard to navigate Minos Cluster until we reach open space.

After that we will keep our jumps short. Using for the most part (what we think are) uninhabited systems with the occasional jump into more populated systems in order to pick up news of New Republic fleet movement and to raid for supplies. We will also be back tracking from time to time in order to throw off any possible New Republic pursuit and to disguise our true intentions.

Moving a fleet this size the distance we are thinking will take some time. We really don’t know what we are getting into in the galaxy proper and we will want to gather as much Intel as we can about the New Republic and the Unknown regions before we get there. We especially need to determine if the New Republic is aware of this threat yet or not.

OOC: I do not expect to reach the edge of the Unknown Regions before May of next year so feel free to come up with missions and stories that put us up against New Republic forces and even local forces using craft like the Preybirds, Cloakshapes and others from XWA. Also if you have any questions or need any clarification please feel free to message me on discord or send me an email and I’ll be happy to answer

The Journey Continues
