Earning our Empire

JOIN the EMPIRE - EARN GREAT REWARDS
With the current economic conditions, we have decided to recruit our audience and generate incentives to help you bolster our resources. Doing things you normally do you can earn Imperial Credit, but you can also earn even more by going above and beyond the call of duty. We will offer great items and goods at the Sandtrooper Commissary / Jawa Trading Post for our readership to redeem their credits, such as Sandtroopers exclusive gear (shirts, hats, etc.), Hasbro figures, Gentle Giant minibusts and statues, and more!

In Lord Vader we trust, and by stacking the Imperial Credit from your hard work you will also be allowed access into the new tiered Sandblast event that will be held this July / August. Our top mercenaries will be eligible for the to use their credits on some amazing prizes, that will be listed at reduced 'prices' during our annual Sandblast*, depending on their totals. Visit the Sandtrooper - Jawa community forums for more details and create your thread to keep a running tally of your credit. Troopers will be required to pay cash shipping on any transactions resulting from this program, with exception to Sandblast.

To kick things off we are offering our seasoned veterans the opportunity to backtrack for our initial stimulus plan and total everything they can from 2008 until Sandblast 2009! This way anything you've done through this year and last will count! So take advantage of our community and use this effort to help bolster the economy and your collections!

You can earn Imperial Credit on the following missions:

• 1 credit for every store / news reports (If used on the front page) - 1 bonus credit for photo and/or receipt.
• 5 Dewback Patrol - 2  Bonus credits for multiple days, interviews, video footage ect.

YOU can even TRADE your credits in a standard trade to other troopers for their merchandise (at their discretion, of course).
