*A huge rift opened at the edge of the designated system and the form of a hive queen emerged. Dropping out of warp her belly opened and 48 hive vessels swarmed out. Accompanying her out of the warp where 2 capital ships - they where in-fact Juvenile Norn Queens. The form exactly 3km in diameter they where little moons. The newly arrived fleet moved into the system. The two young norn queens opened their belly's and from them poured over 100 meteor sized spores each splitting away and hurtling into the atmospheres of the designated planets as scout ships. The rest of the fleet remained just inside the edge of the combat zone awaiting the games to begin.*

Solar system 1:
Owner: Hive
Attacker:Trailers

No. Of planets:2

Solar system 2:
Owner: CorpSac
Attacker:Nodea Rudav

No. Of planets: 3

you dont need to attack the system ur in this is just starting places, traval time between systems is 3 RL hours (meaning the ships u send off to a new system there out of action for 3 RL hours)
you must post what ships are even if its TG me this is for me the GM to make shore your not cheating.

of the 48 hive ships:
26: royal guard - 13 for each capital ship
20: cuttle Fish Transport Vessels
2: Adapted Cuttle Fish Transport Vessels (Bioweapon dispersal)

Young norn queens are as standard norn queens just slightly weaker and smaller.

Troops are inside carrier vessels.

Spores (the ones sent out at the beginning) are on EVERY PLANET IN BOTH SYSTEMS FYI.

okies i think thats about it.
Any thing else just ask.

Koaron, the emperor of Gronde personally attended these war games. He looked on the hive infested world and smiled. It was time. He gave the order to fire and the firepower of the entire fleet was unleashed uppon the most concentrated areas of hive forces. The nova cannons on the Battleships and dreadnoughts lit space and Koaron's smile grew wider, dispite the fact that he didnt know just how effective the bombardment was.
"Launch the pods," he commanded as a hundred streaks of light sped down to the planet. Noone knew who the faceless, nameless warriors of this new empire were, or what they were. Not even Koaron's own men.

*The Queen sitting out side of the system watching pulsed. Her presence ensured the hive would keep inline. The hive thought as one. FEED.*

One Norn queen well jumped to the nearest planet along with half of the fleet. It arrived and instantly unleashed harvester spores onto the planet. As the spores touched down onto the feldgling planet life errupted instantaniously catalised by the hormones in the spores. The planet was being harvested.
Meanwhile a single cuttle fish transport well jumped into the corpsac fleet*

Comms from avatar of cuttle fish transport @ corpsac fleet:
we are the hive we are perfection. Requesting permission to dock as arranged.

*The second norn queen well jumped to the second planet in the system but did not release spores and instead hung in space its small fleet surrounding it.*

ooc> umm . . . which planet? no planet is infested atm - all you know is that a few metieorites landed on all of the planets in the game. I just started to harvest a planet so i will presume u are attacking this one then.

ic> *Much of the newly sprouted undergrowth is blown away bye the sudden rain of fire however the catalystic effect resuslts in the cleared area's being overgrown once more in seconds. As the planet surface becomes coverd with grenery several huge tower sized structure begin growing upwards towards the atmosphere, already several miles high they appear to be reaching towards the orbiting norn queen.
The second fleet turns towards the attackers. A huger surge of purple energy from the norn queen over a kilometer in diameter races towards the new threat. The 13 royal guard fan out to protect their queen while the cuttle fish transport vessles turn towards anypotential fighter threat charging emp and ion cannons.*
Gronde
02-04-2004, 03:18
ooc> oops, yeah i was attacking that one

ic> Koaron looked down on the destruction caused by his obital strikes. he smiled once more. as the smoke cleared, his smile quickly faded as he watched the damage regrow itself. Then he smiled again, the radiation from the nova cannons would soon kill off anything trying to grow there. Koaron looked at his moniter and saw a serge of energy and a hive fleet moving to meet him.
"About time," he said, pressing the red button on his control pannel. the entire fleet went into red alert and made their manuvers. They evaded the major energy attack without major damage. Koaron ordered his fleet to commence battle bland Omega IV. The 6 dreadnoughts barraled forward, firing their nova cannons into the oncomming hive ships, the radiation was intense enough to melt the flesh of nearly anything. The dreadnoughts then quickly formed into a broodside formation and began firing every weapon they had. At the same time, the battleships formed a firing triangle and fired their lance nova cannons(longer range than normal ones) and their rail guns into the enemy fleet. The gunships and frigates also formed into the same formations and fired weapons. The carriers moved away from the rest of the Gronde fleet as they launched another wave of drop pods and released some dropships. Koaron had complete confidence in his warriors.
Down on the planet, the hatches on the drop pods opened and strange warriors clad in thick powered armor stepped out. They redied their heavy rifles and flame throwers and began to charge towards their objective with perfect organization and discipline.
Their commander yelled "For the empire!" and the attack began.

*The radioactive energy slammed into the norn queen ripping into her belly. The hive fleet went insane. The royal guard surged forward skimming through space avoiding the particle weapons as they felt space move around the objects as a dolphin would feel a torpedo moving in water. The hive had evolved in space. They where perfect. The lances of energy that struck them where severely dampened as the refractive carapace Armour worked sending energy shimmering back into space making the ships seam to glow with energy. The cuttle fish transport vessels surged towards the enemy following the royal guards example however they where not so fortunate, while they could easily dodge the small projectiles they had no refractive Armour and so slices where being taken out of them several fell and a few where injured but still they surged on.
The Norn queens belly rippled. Then from thousands of pours erupted a stream of fighters one thousand, two thousand more and more sped out into space until nearly 5 thousand man sized swarm ships were in space rushing towards their targets. they all spread out taking a square mile each so as not to all die in a large blast. They moved at a frightening speed but then space seamed to stop. And they disappeared. They had well jumped. Moments later they reappeared behind the enemy fleet surging towards them, they where under a mile away and they all surged towards their targets covering the distance in seconds soon they would be upon their prey.
Mean while on the planet Huge undergrowth was springing up impeding the marines movement while 3 lictors followed them their chameleon Armour hiding them and their venting scaled removing all the heat from their body. They could taste their pray. It was time to feed.
The huge spore towers began to intertwine linking to each other and then surged up through the atmosphere connecting to the norn queen in orbit. She began to use the huge Column like a straw drinking the essence of the planet. Deep within the planets core the spores had cooled it down and had tuned it into a gooey slush filled with ores ready to be harvested the only thing keeping the planet whole was the crust and upper mantel. A huge earthquake rippled across the planet as it began to die.
A fourth lictor moved towards the drop pod and began to rip into it huge scything talons attempting to tear the pod apart.*

The commander of the carrier unit looked at the massive swarm coming at them. Without giving much thought to how they appeared there, he ordered the launching of the fighters to meet them. It would be unwise to fire the main weapons on the capital ships at such a scattered force, so he instead decided that a dogfight with using their elite fighters in a more effective formation would be more effective against the swarm. Koaron turned his attention to the hive queen absorbing the dying planet. While his dreadnoughts broadside weapons ripped into the hive fleet, he ordered his Lance Battleships and gun ships to fire their forward nova cannons and rail guns to fire into the Norn queen. The shells from the rail guns tore completely though the Norn queen and came out the other side. The nova cannons appeared to do even more damage. The Tac. Fighters formed into a wedge formation and ripped into the scattered swarm that had come from the queen. The stingers, using their superior speed zipped around and boxed in the swarm as the longbow fighters blasted them with their heavier weapons. The fighters unit style combat was giving them the edge. The torpedo frigates focused their firepower on the cuttlefish transports, delivering severe, perhaps terminal damage to them.

Down on the planet, the marine forces began to torch the hive structured with their flamers. The riflemen and plasma gunners shot any hive life forms they scanned. The marine commander only had to worry about those Lictors following them. Had they thought the marines wouldn’t notice them? He laughed to himself. These were no ordinary marines; they were 7 ½ feet tall even without their power armor, they had vision, hearing, strength, and speed far superior to normal humans. The Lictors must have thought that they were hunting the marines, when it was in fact the opposite.

As the fourth Lictor tore open the drop pod it was attacking, it saw no one in it. Suddenly, a missile and several sniper bullets hit the Lictor directly, transforming it into a pile of slime on the ground. From about 100 yards away a team of marines wearing adaptive camouflage stealth suits came into view. Three more squads liked the first arrived and gave the report that the area was secure. The commander of the stealth team signaled the drop ships to land and the other marines to patrol the area. Just to be safe, the commander set several seismic charges onto the ground to kill anything that was waiting underground to ambush them. They also served to stablize the crumbling planet. With the norm queen in no condition to continue draining the planet, it retirned to noral quickly. The drop ships landed and divisions of tanks, bikes, war walkers, and artillery vehicles came out of them. There were also several elite marine platoons. The marines already in the heart of hive territory were faring well, but the Imperial forces of Gronde still needed to attack in force.

OOC> is it just me or are Imodus and I the only ones posting. :?

ooc > ok dude 3 things
1st:
Dont godmod - you just killed a load of my stuff and talked about things u didnt know where happening.
eg: marines KNOWING lictors are there, killing lictors, killing norn queens etc etc. . .

2nd react to things i do - i suggest what may occur not what is acutally happening and i give u time to react eg: my swarm ships have moved behind your fleet and will cover the distance of 1 mile in 10seconds - there is no way u can launch fighters in that time. You can brace for impact and start to launch fighters but there is no way that in 10 seconds u can launch fighters and they can immediatly be in an attack formation. And have fun with your 500 or so vs my 5,000 - thats 10:1 in my favour.

3 you are firing at my ship that is on the other side of a planet from you as a starter - second the planet will be 1,000's of miles away - at least 50,000 inorder that the gravety wells do not pull them towards each other and they maintain a stable orbit.

ic>
The Attacking cuttle fish transports sufferd serious damage many of them being blown to peices. However their natural habitat ment that they where capable of evading the projective weaponry however the lasor fire was ripping chuinks out of them.
The Royal guard however where having no such problems while dodging the projectiles the lasor fire was simply refracted off their hull or severly dampend by the refractive technology imbued into their chitchen armour. The opend fire orange surges of plasma tearing realspace as they lurched towards one of the capital ships.
The first norn queen was realing from the radiation in her system, but then it happend, she absorbed the rafioactive materials and catalyesed them into growth hormones - instantly she grew and was the size of a small moon in seconds and still growing tho at a reduced rate she screamed facing the enemy she was now a fully grown norn queen she opened fire into the fleet with a huge surge of purple plasma easily 12km across aimed straight at the crusers (the ones that went broadside on)
1,000 of the swarm ships broke formation slamming into the "Slow" fighters in an attempt to destroy them as they did launching bioacid onto them in an attempt to disolve the figters as they flew. (ooc noting that nothing has hit yet its up to u to discide ;) ) the remaing 4,000 reached the surface of the second largest capital ship and began to swarm across the outside spraying bioacid and looking for weak points to focus on 100 or so already attempting to lach onto the surface and bore into the ship.
Meanwhile on the ground the lictor that was rakeing the drop pod slammed right through the armour and into some hydrolics puncturing them, unfortunaly the long talon became stuck fast. Swearing to itself it attempted to break free, however it picked up the scent of mechanics and then it her the clicks of several weapons, again it swore as the bullets tore into it kiliing it. Its bioacid blood spewed out disolving all that it touched including its own body so that nothing could be recoverd. Over 2 gallons of the acid sprayed out over 25 meters covering and melting anything it touched.
The remaining 3 lictors were watching the marines, as they fired their flame spitters into the sporetowers they errupted into life growing rapantly like creeping vines attempting to ensnare the marines. (THINK EVOLUTION as in the film) Taking this to their advantage the lictors droped out of the trees from above the marinve huge talons aiming at weakspots in the armour that the lictors could smell and sence. Their huge talons racked downwards nothing would stop them now even if they died the weight of the creatures would slam the claws through the marines and into the ground - where they to hit.
In orbit around the dying planet the huge norn queen began to evolve in a hive queen - huge pods ripped out of her skein and she was easily the size of a planet now and soon would be larger than the one she was absorbing. The hive was perfection!

OOC> Very sorry, im new at this. I also misread your post a little. I launched my fighters as soon as i detected your swarm ships the first time. They only needed to rerout their course when yoour swarm ships jumped to other side of my fleet, yes you would still have the advantage there, i didnt specify haw many swarm ships i actually killed, im really sorry if i made made it sound differently. One more thing, my marines only killed one lictor, the one that happened to be ripping up a drop pod. :wink: Anyways, enough of that. Sorry for godmoding a little bit, like i said im kind of new. (lol, at least I have good spelling and grammer, thats always good, right?)

IC>The fighting had intensified in space, most of the swarm ships had plowed right past the fighters and went right for the battleships. The huge number of anti-fighter laser and missil batteries opened fire on the swarm ships, firing at a rapid pace. The couldnt allow them to get to their hulls.

The Dreadnoughts reacted very quickly to the purpal energy comming from the mutating Norn queen. They fired pulse energy into the blast, hoping to disapate it. They were partially successful, the energy washed over them, instead of going right through the ships. The dreadnoughts came out with their thick hulls scorched, but there wasnt much serios hull breaching. The dreadnoughts quickly returned their attention back to the other hive ships, switching to the other ships who were firing on them now, (ooc, they are called royal gaurd, right?) fireing torpedos instead of lasers this time. The fighters zipped around trying to pick off as many swarm ships as they could, this could take a while...

Meanwhile, coming out of a jump near the growing norn queen were the destroyers. They fired reversed polarity nova cannons into the hive alien, this would put the foul creature back into systematic shock, for a minute at least...( :shock: )

On the ground, the marines were being ensared by strange vines comming out of the spore towers.
"God, I hate planets where everything tries to eat me..." the sargant of that squad. He wouldnt complain about it again. He pulled his chainsword and cut himself free of the vines. At that same moment, the three lictors that they thought were behind them jumped down from trees, talons ready. The first glanced off the sargants armor, the other two hit their mark and killed two of the ensnared marines. The sargent jabbed his chainsword into the first lictor and quickly pressed a button on his belt. Suddenly, clowds of poisan gas began spewing out of the armor of all the marines. Those that had already freed themselves were fireing into the clouds of gas, or at the lictors as they waited for the gas to clear.

The other three drop squads that were in the heart of Hive controled area recieved automatic visual information from the attacked squad. They couldnt help them, but they could use their idea. All three of the marine squads began using poisan gas, all of it specially engeneered to kill these hive creatures, on the hive. Hopefully it would work.

Meanwhile, at the landing site, the concentrated Gronde forces had set up their orbital strike missiles, many of them were fitted with poisan chemicle amunition. A volley of 60 of these missiles were fired into the the hopefully, temporarily disabled queen.

More and more vehicles and troops were being unloaded there, several scout squads were sent out to patrol the area.

Somewhere in that system, a group of 7 assult craft came out of a jump. They were heading for a secret destination....

ooc> any better this time? If i ever get out of hand again, dont mind telling me, i need to be yelled at once in a while. :wink:

the DE ships were waiting in the other system nothing seemed to be happening so it was decided to send the she'klan ships to the other sector to see what was happening.
the commander of the fleet allowed the Hive ship to dock, but order the computer to disconnect the ship and fry it if anything looked out of place. and when he sead fryed he ment it the computer would overload the Reators and send it into a feed back to the hive ship, and that was alot of juice tho it would leave the ship desabled for 10 mins while the reactors re started.

the ground forces on the planets had set up base's as all the planets were full of convicts (the fack cities and such) they had dug in and waited they had surpplys for 2 months so they were stocked up.

*The hive reacted as the ships appeared. The Huge norn queen turned releasing her fighters into the attackers 100,000 swarm ships sped out of her towards their targets. The royal guard began spinning towards a destroyer class ship pulsing streaks of plasma towards its hull.
On the other side of the ships the first wave of swarm ships began to latch onto the ships and bore into the hull using small plasma pulses, bioacid and rending claws to burrow into the ships.
The planet finally dies collapsing in onto itself as the last bits and peices of matter were absorbed untill it was only the size of a football stadium. Totally barren, it was a simple lump of pure carbon (Diamond) floating in space its outer surface scared black.

The cuttle fish transport vessel docked with its corpsac ally's and as the sealed dorrs opend a single avatar stepped out. Moving swiftly she headed towards the captains quarters as she walked passed a comms node she tapped into it requesting his presence in his quaters. Then 10 small doglike creatures jumped out supporting a large 10 meter long slug. They looked about for a few moments before heading towards the bridge to wetware in the new equipment.

As they touch the outer skein of the queen they explode covering a 30 mile area and the tissue begins to weaken and numb as the synapses between nerves deaden, a huge black scar begins to appear accross the surface of the queen. Immediatly 20 long vessels emerge from inside her each about 20meters long. They consist of one huge maw with over 40 meters of bite. They circle around the damage tissue and begin to simply eat the dying flesh. Tearing huge chunks out of the queen they do not absorb what they tear away but simply swallow it and it is force out behind them instantly. However the poison is so viralent that many of them begin to die as it diffuses accross the thin walls of their great maws. Soon the dying chunk has been completly removed like a tumor however 17 of the cleanup vessels float dead in space the remaing 3 moving very slowly the paralitic effects obvious. The queen screams in agony using it to well up rage turning of the attacking ships she opens fire a huge ball of purple plasma appears in her maw as she prepares to fire but the rage puts her into over charge and shock waves ripple from her maw as the plasma changes colour and density it becomes pure white with a similar composite to a white dwarf. She fires the blob of plasma at the ships, the gravity well it creates sucking in ships towards it from over 2,000 miles away. Several of the hive cuttle fish die as they are draged into the ball of plasma. It surges towards its targets pulling 5 more ships in its huge gravety wake.

ic> The team of destroyers tried to scatter away from the huge blast comming towards them. Over half of them were sucked into the energy. One was completely destroyed and one moderatly damage. The rest were lucky, getting off with only some scorching on the hulls.

Meanwhile, the main fleet was withdrawing from the fight following the arrival of Trailer's fighters.
