The Emperor's Hammer consists of the main TIE Fighter Corps and its supporting Subgroups. Each of these groups within the Fleet typically represent gamers using a different game platform and also a different function within the club.
The Emperor's Hammer Strike Fleet has EIGHT "SubGroups" for those Imperial Citizens that wish to join the Empire but don't own the TIE Fighter or XWing vs TIE Fighter (LucasArts, 1994, 1995 and 1997) computer games...Each Subgroup specializes in a different facet of the Star Wars of the Dark Side/Imperial Universe. Simply choose the group of interest and contact the EH Flight Officer to join up...!!!
**Important Note** All of the groups listed below (except for the Dark Brotherhood) are exclusive...The EH allows ONE EH ID Line (i.e. Membership) per E-Mail address...!!! Please note that possession of a particular computer game platform denoted in (parentheses) may be required to be accepted into some SubGroups (i.e. for "missions")...

The "slicers" and entrepeneurs of the Fleet. The individual "corporations" are responsible for new fighters,capital ships, weapons , general PC game "innovations", goods and services in the service of the Fleet...In these dangerous days after Endor and with the Emperor's Hammer Fleet spread throughout the Emperor's Hammer Territories, the Corporate Division has been given the authority to field small Picket Fleets for pirate suppression and convoy defense...
