We shall send out the following, with most of our forces remaining at home. This Fleet is of peaceful intentions:
5 Battleships
6 Warriors Class Carriers
12 Superior Class Battlecruisers

Gaia and the Fernin Paradoxx Shipyards are now open to your fleet. Any area designated 'Off Limits' will remain off limits, unless led through it by an officer. This is enforced by 'shoot on sight' protocols. Welcome aboard

OOC: Uber busy so I keep it short, you know the link to the Starbase
*******************

Please stop by the ECF Starbase you probably already know where that is.
We will welcome you.

OOC: I can't seem to subscribe remotely to this thread, so heres the old "Tag." AI might want to check your TGs, I may have to drop out or at least have the visit occur later.

OOC: *dances cause he's first!*

OOC I'm glad so many are responding.

The Fleet is on its way as I am typing this, please have your dignatiaries ready.

Tag, because I can't be bothered to post and posting auto-subscribes me.

Taren idly lounges on a bench, with stuffy old men milling around him, his sisters lazing on other benches, while watching the sky at the spaceport.

OOC: Yep, dignitaries....

With a metaphorical flash and a bang, the Great Fleet arrives. We are ready to demonstrate our fancy equipment, the stuff not available on the export models. Please provide us with directions to teh docking acilities, though we don't really need to dock.

OOC: Sorry i'm late.

IC: The Imperial Main Patrol group is preparing to recieve and escort the Great white fleet. The main patrol group is the largest in the fleet.

It consists of:

1 Juggernaut-class Heavy Battlecruiser
15 Salamander-class Heavy carriers
20 Oblivion-class Heavy cruisers
40 Helios-Class Light frigates

and about 2,000 Fighters, Interceptors and Bombers on all the carriers.

Shipyards and docking platforms on the Stations orbiting Tydus Prime are being prepped to recieve heavy traffic. After all, with a fleet Visiting, it is most likely that The Imperial Merchants guild will turn up and try to sell their wares to members of your crew. but i assure you, Imperial Wares are useful, and a bargain at their prices. But still, there will be those that try to swindle you...

Bumpith to our long lost thread

I'm waiting for JJR. *glares angrily* If he doesn't post today, I'll skip him and move on.

Im away for this next week :( , so don't skip me :D

OOC: Ok, ok, I'm here. I was rendering the Systemkiller, ok?

IC: Tarenteor watches idly as the fleet pops into existance, before leaning back and tapping some keys on a portable Comlink he'd brought. His face appeared upside down on the screen. "Hey. You see the huge building? You know, the one that pierces that atmosphere? Yeah, the docks are like, right next to that. Uhuh. To the left."

"Okay, we are glad that you are able to recieve us. Two of the battleships, the AISS Kanttuchdis and teh AISS Nonistan will be leaving to do a waepons demonstration on some targets we ahve set up in deepspace. Would you care to accompany us? Here are the coordinates. The rest of the fleet will be displaying formations manuevers and the fighters are hoping for a demonstration of our precision bombing capabilities sometime soon. IN the meantime our captians will be coming aboard on shuttlecraft to meet with your commanders, as we are allies we thought it a good idea to have our best tacticians talk with your battlefield commanders."

"Sounds froody. Lets do it. That bombing display sounds fun. Do you want a planet, or just some old ship hulks?"

"Anything with a target painted on ti, or a circle of white stones, or really anything you don't mind us using as a target,as long as its really small."

The two Battleships leave to do the demonstration. The ships that JJR want to view it follow them. They arrive in a section of deep space witha set of eight target hulks set up. The target hulks are divided into four groups. The Captain of the Nonistan gets onto an open channel to the JJR ships:

"The hulks you see are designed for target practice. There are four different types out there, divided by armor class. The red painted ones have 30 meters of heavy armor and shielding over a simple reactor and set of engines, remotely controlled. The purple have 75 meters and shields. The green have 15 meters, no shields. The blue painted ones are made of captured armor and shields from enemy vehicles -mounted on the same superstructure as the others. Please pay attention. First I will fire upon a single target fromall the groups with the level X phasers installed on the Nonistan. Then the I will fire with specially installed export-model railguns. Finally the Kanttuchdis fire with Al-Imvad Navy issue railguns and HACSHMs."

As the captain described, the weapons opened fire. The phasers lanced out from the Nonistan, but did little damage to the target vehicles. Then the export railguns were fired. The HE shells did a little damage to the heavier armor, though the AP shells did pierce all armor. While this had been hapening, the Kanttuchdis had manuevered away from the rest of the vessels. She turned and showed her broadside to the targets. It was plainly visible to any observer that the gunners were taking their tiome setting up a perfect shot. Then suddenly, the Kanttuchds spun around, so that the gunners' shots were off. Within a couple seconds of the manuever, the order to fire was given. The battleship opened fire, with four AP shells, four HE shells, and four HACSHMs flying out from her, staggered so that the observer could view each individual impact, though video replays would be available later. The HE shells hit their targets first. The damage was impressive, with huge holes blown in the sides of the target's armor. The AP shells rippeed strait through the armor, exploding on the other side, causing the reactors to malfunction and go critical, except on the green target, where they went all the way through. The HACSHMs had been targeted on the hulks that hadn't been used for the earlier demonstration.

"These are HACSHM 9s, they have the most powerful guidance computers and warheads yet, and are believed to be unjammable and have small shields to improve the chances of surviving AA fire. These are available for export, but you'll have to be sure to specify the '9' model." reported the captain happliy.

They impacted on the surfaces of the armor, having homed in so they hit directly above the reactor. They completely destroyed every one of their targets.

"Just a piece of backgroud trivia and family history: my grandfathre was one of the original designers of the HACSHM 1. That particular version could destroy a Victory Class Star Destroyer in a single hit, if it impacted near the reactor or engines."
