Deep inside the Emperor's Palace, Mwto'ar walks through the long narrow halls with escort at his side. He approaches the inner most chamber of the High Councel. he stops just outside the large oak doors that tower over him. His eyes lower to the handles but not before taking notice of the "old" Protectorate Seal.

The Councel Members in all their former glory are but mere advisors to the Emperor now. It is still uncertain why the Emperor insisted on "holding" this party over from the time of his fathers rule. Perhaps it is just a way for Mwto'ar to have something familiar from the past...the good times in his life, before becoming Emperor. But, within those times, memories of his brother Utto'ar still harden Mwto'ars heart and stiffen his upper lip. It could be, the councel is Mwto'ars way of proving himself to his brother, as the members are all former Protectorate Senate members. Though old and disolving, the High Councel hold many years of experiance and had brought Sambizie to all her glory during the time of Mwto'ars father, the times Mwto'ar so despertly clinged to.

Mwto'ar gave a tug on the belt that held his Elarian Blade, which was conceled by his large flowing cloak. He slowly raised his hood over his head, as it was best to conceal the eys when talking with the Councel. He turns to an escort and states, "This will not take long, summon General Kre'tek...let him know it is his time to prove himself before the Empire." "At once Emperor", the escort states. Mwto'ar turns to the doos and enters when an elderly ladies voice greeted him, "Greetings to you Mwto'ar", she states. "Swanie", he states as the door closes shut behind him...

-----------------------------------------+--------------------------
30 min. later...

Mwto'ar left the room. As he did, he found General Kre'tek standing at attention in the hallway. Mwto'ar gestered the General to come forward, "General you are in charge of the Fleet now." "Summon the Coalition Commanders at once." "Yes my Lord", the General stated. "Recall the Sambizie Fleet, I wan't all vessels to set a course for Siesana." "At once my Lord"....

"Careful on the deceleration, Mister Bailey!" Fleet Admiral Jain Granger smiled as the Constitution decelerated a bit too quickly. "Ah, Siesana. Thought I'd never have to see this place again. Alright, Nicky, Grammy, talk to me."

Vice Admiral Dan Nichols was fifty, tall, overweight and perhaps a more brilliant Fleet Commander than Granger herself. The Deputy Fleet Commander tended to speak slightly quickly and did so as he waved his hand over the map and held a piece of paper. "We got twenty Constitution CVBs; twenty AP DNs; fifty Imitora CAs; an even hundred Sambizie DDs, plus maybe thirty New Empire LTs; six Elara LSDs; and twenty Liberty Fighters LCHs. That brings us to one-ninety combatant vessels; twenty-six Marine landing ships; and thirty combat support ships."

Lieutenant General Art Graham was altogether different from Nichols being a mere 5'6", thin and posessing a slightly raspy drawl that spoke of his rural upbringing. Despite his ego, swagger and looking as if he defined the word 'cool', he was every bit as good as his personal one hundred and eight enemy kills suggested. "Fighter complements are good, as is our training. Probably two thousand total of Hammerhead IIs, Phantoms and Vampires. They're very sharp and can take anything we get thrown. What's troubling is development of the new Thorn heavy strike fighter. We're pushing it through too quickly and we won't give our pilots enough time to get familiar before we send them into battle. Still, the Thorn's got twice the payload and range of the two seat Hammerheads. Can't wait to get it."

Granger nodded. "To sum up, gentlemen, not the biggest Fleet, but well equipped and trained?" Both men nodded. "Alright, signal that we're on approach. Let's get this over with."

[edit dbl. post] :lol:

Mwto'ar finnds himself in the command seat of Station Operations just as the Adejaani Fleet was cleared. With General Kre'tek at his side, the two of them witnessed the multitude of contacts appearing on the screen. Mwto'ar looked at the General and stated, "What is our position General?" "Thus far sir...We have assembled 35 Roland Class DDG's, 10 JFK's, 10 Constitutions, 5 McArthur's, 10 Eisenhower's, 30 AP DN's, 10 Psygonisis Cruisers, 20 Cap. Sambizie LV's, 40 Sambizie Class DE's, and 5 Zulu's...Sir we also will have an initial assult force of 100,000 Marines and 400,000 Legions of reinforcements..."."Sir we are as of now 50% with the assembly..." "Very well", Mwto'ar states. "How long before the fleet is assembled in it's entirity General?", Mwto'ar asked. "2 days my Lord", he responds. "Signal Granger and his staff to station Ops.", Mwto'ar stated.."At once my Lord"....

OOC: Total Fleet equals 175 Vessels plus 30 various support and supply craft. Various fightercraft totaling over 2,000 (Fleet support) and 1,000 for moonbase and platform defense.

OOC: Granger is a she. :shock:

IC: Granger entered station ops and immediately hugged Mwto'ar tightly and smiled. "Emperor. I believe you know my two senior officers, Dan Nichols and Art Graham." The two nodded and shook hands. "Oh, before I begin, thought I'd unveil this." She handed a folder over.

===============================================

Declassified report, SF-57 Thorn heavy strike fighter

http://www.wcrevival.de/graphics/ships/sabre.jpg

To supplement the two seat strike versions of the SF-43 Hammerhead II, with a larger airframe capable of more speed and ordnance, is the Thorn. Although 50% larger than the SF-43, the Thorn is just as large and packs twice the missile and gun firepower of the SF-43. In addition, the SF-57 sports more powerful energy shielding.

Vice Marshall O'Connor began his trip home on the Dunabe Class Runabout, he was needed back on earth, his new duties took him above and beyond the LF Space Corps, now he was to be the Executive Officer of all CLF Armed forces, and was now "too valuable" to be out on the frontier of a skirmish.

His replacement was a very strong-willed woman, Admiral Keri Albrecht had proven herself many times over, and was the perfect candidate.

Ablrecht stood at the airlock and looked out the window as the runabout flew towards the wormhole. As soon as it engadged its warp drives and went out of sight, she became alert and instantly rushed. She was already late for the meeting at the Sambizie sation.

She quickly rushed to the turbo lift, in her wake were General Baker, of the CLF Marine Corps, and Rear Admiral Maya Wilson, the Deputy Commander of the fleet in the sector.

General Kyle Baker was a slim man, only 5'8" but not lacking in muscular build. He had obvious evidence of battlefield experience. At his side at all times was his Pule-Phaser pistol, as with all military personel during war time; but Baker carried two, as well as a Trinese combat blade on the inside of his lef near the boot.

Rear Admiral Wilson was a fighter pilot from the beginning days of the Commonwealth, when it was still a simple republic. She was easily an ace and had one of the best kill records in the Corps. She also had an interesting adventure during the Atlantian Outcase Civil war, where she was downed while flying escort for the drop ships, she survived for 5 days without friendly contact until she met up with General Baker, she them earned the Distinguished Service Cross for her ground combat in the captuiring of the Atlantian Capital City.

But Admiral Albrecht was the inigma, no one had heard too much about her. They could see from first had witnessing that she knew what she was doing, and did it very well. No one objected to her command, and had great loyalty for her. Albrecht spent alot of the time being an advisor to the Chancellor Marshall, but as to what exactly it was unclear. She also was on the team that developed the new, and mostly top secret, Shadowblade Assualt Craft. She had her backing to be where she was, but alot of it was clouded in mystery.

As the three officers entered the turbo-lift, General Baker activated the voice command, "Docking Bay 1"
The turbo-lift proceeded to where the Norway Class ship, the Oslo was docked and waiting for the departure. The Light Crusier was ready for battle, as its usual mission was boarder patrol, but it was called in to transport the Admirals and the general across the allied space to the confrence, they were already late. The Light Crusier sped at warp 8 to the Sambizie station.

OOC: Gahh...I knew that Adejaani..my typo :lol:

Mwto'ar quickly flipped through the folder of documents that Granger handed him. When he came across the photo of the FS-57, he raised an eyebrow and nodded in approval. He sclosed the folder and tucked it under his arm. "Yes, we have much to talk about friends", "Please right this way", he stated as he pointed up the stairs to a private briefing room. It was apparhent by the number Jr. Grade enlistees and by a paticular Jr.Lt. who looked as if he was going to wet himself, that Mwto'ar and his guest were in the way....

As the group proceeded upstairs Mwto'ar was flocked from all directions, by incomming station personal. It was obvious...there is much to be done as datapad after datapad slid in and out of Mwto'ars hands, during this brief walk. "Enough", Mwto'ar stated while waving off the next wave of ensigns. "Perhaps we should eat first, while we waite for O'Conner and Roland?" Mwto'ar asked of the Adejaani party. Mwto'ar called over a LT. Commander, and after brief introduction he stated, "Inform me when the Liberty Fighter and Elarian Fleets arrive...You have Command..." "Yes My Lord...The LF Fleet is currently in wormhole transition", The Commander stated.

OOC: Not to be picky, but my fleets never left the system, they just went to my sector. O'Connor left the system. General Baker, Rear Admiral Wilson, and Admiral Albrecht are on thier way.

Captain Luyau, of the Medium Crusier Oslo opened a channel to the Sambizie station as soon as they dropped out of warp. The Communications officer sent out the hail.

"This is Captain Luyau of the CLF starship Olso I am currently carrying Admirals Albrecht and Wilson, as well as General Baker, en route for a meeting. Requesting docking clearence."

Roland sat in his quarters on the Fenrir, his sons old ship but now the new Flagship of the Empire. Roland sighed deeply as he looked to the stars outside his window.

"So long have I waited....so long...still Hester has not returned." "No word from them in years...."

The doors to the quarters opened with a hissing sound as Prince Sven walked in and kneeled before his father. He still looked but twenty years of age, Elarian Scientists had done for Sven what they had done for Mwto'ar.

"Father, we are ready, shall I give the order?"

"Rise, no son of mine needs to kneel before me."[/color=blue] Roland said with a smile as he turned to his Sven and they both stood together.

[color=blue]"I thought freeing the colonies so many years ago would not hurt us, our Empire would still be strong and powerful." "I know you see it my son, our Empire has declined...."

"But Fath.."

"Shh, I speak the truth, you know it." "Elara has never lost a war, we shall not lose this one." "Now is the time to show everyone that though we appear weaker we are most certainly not!" "Sure, our ships our older than our comrades who even now develope newer and more powerful weaponry and vessels." "But does this make us weak?" "No, our ships are still strong, we will still stand by our allies, our brothers and sisters of the coallition." Roland sighed and placed his hand on Sven's shoulder.

"Let us go and greet our old friends."

The two men fully dressed in their Elarian Armor walked towards the shuttle bay of the ship followed closely by the Imperial Guard. In Rolands right armor covered hand he held a bottle of Elarian Ale. The men pulled the hoods of their cloaks over their heads as they entered the Elarian Shuttlecraft.

Sven reached to a comm panel and began to speak...

"Inform the Sambizie of our arrival, decloak and open shuttle bay doors, immediately." "Yes m'lord."

The Shuttle left the bay and began its approach to the station as the Elarian Imperial Fleet decloaked.

+---+---+---+---+

Transmission Open:

"This is the Flagship Fenrir of the Elarian Empire." "Please inform your Commanders of our arrival."

+---+---+---+---+

Transmission Open:

"This is Emperor Roland Meridius of Elara, permission to dock and board the station."

Roland sat back in the silvery chair, feeling a small vial in his pocket as he awaited a reply.

+---+---+---+---+

Elarian Fleet consists of:

-30 Elarian Battleships

-10 Elarian Carriers

-40 Elarian Cruisers

-50 Elarian Destroyers

-20 Mwto'ar Class Frigates

-25 Swanie Medical Ships *NEW* (Large Medical Vessels with light defensive weaponry and medium shielding.)

175 Elarian Imperial Vessels Total.

(Ships are carrying 100,000 Elarian Warriors from all different branches of the Elarian Military.)

Granger smiled and looked around the room when everyone had entered. "Just like old times. The four allies, the line in the sand, all that's defending our homes from the accursed Sha'Ra. Allies have come and gone and many have fallen in this struggle."

Granger pulled out a bottle of champagne. "Before we begin..... We should make a toast and salute our fallen comrades."

The Wormhole swirled with its light blue, red, purple beauty. The First ships began appearing. The first ship, the Thunderchild one of the brand new classes, the Akira class. Heavy Crusier, soon after came Streamrunner class escorts, a suppliemtn to the Shadowblade class. Behind came Saber Class light crusiers, Norway Class medium crusiers. The Bohemeths of the convoy were the Olympic class vessels. Hospital ships. The newest in the CLF support vessels. 15 of them, there was obviously a massive operation in the works. Behind the Olympic Hospital ships came Barges, full of cargo, raw supplies, ammunition, food, and most of all; over 1,000 more fighters. The supplies, and fighters for Afek Nor had arrived. However, there was more. A second station was to be built. Malek Nor.

A total of 55 more warships came through the wormhole. Destined for Afek Nor, then some to the new building location for Malek Nor. Construction Barges and Cargo barges would re-fuel at Afek Nor. The Station now had all 4 Danube Class Runabout Shuttles, and the 558 defensive interceptors and/or attack fighters. Malek Nor was to be finished in short time.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Oslo made its final approach to the Sambizie station and repeated its request to dock

OOC: Warships now in the sector:
8 Akira-Class Heavy Crusiers
10 Norway-Class Medium Crusiers
12 Saber-Class Light Crusiers
25 Shadowblade-Class Escort Vessels
10 Streamrunner-Class Escort Vessels
9 Padrick-Class Command Battle Frigates*

Well heres the map of the GZNRII System taken from information and rough drawings from Sambizie , Adejaani , LF , and the one Elarian thing I wanted in the map. Enjoy.

*Secret rp*

Ironeia Prime Fleet Yard
12 hours ago...

The newest of the Death Spider Class drifted from construction platform. Throughout the hulls of this little beast, the gentle, soothing sound of the pulsating engine core, comforts the 260 occupants. As the vessel slowly drifted away from the dock with promises of a good hunt.

Set a course for DakBa maximum speed...
Yes Elder...Setting course to MArker 136...Maximum speed...

Reverse course out of the *Zoarg Cooridoor...Thrusters Only...Deploy a new marker...
Yes Elder...
Set a new course for ShaHaDoom
At once Elder...
----------------------------------+------------------

OOC: Map looks good.. :lol:
*The "Zoarg Cooridoor" was the escape route used by the Zoarg Colonists to reach Sol Space. A wormhole leading from Ironeia Prime to the GhHari Sector had been established by the Zoarg. Colonists settled briefly on Siesana and worked at establishing the Siesana Gate. The last of the Zoarg Colonists fled before they could destroy the Siesana Gate.

The Planets ShaHaDoom, and JhHad are the first of the "Inner Planets" of Zoarg Space. Ironeia Prime, Kres'Lek and Klandthu make up the "Core Worlds" Of the Empire.

OOC: Sory for the delay...I'm waiting for my allies...IF they ever show up :lol:

If they haven't shown up by tomorrow, we'll proceed without them.

OOC: Ok, My computer broke so I don't have the best listing, and not really specifc stats on my ships. It's all similar to Minbari technology, with a couple advances here and there. I apologize, this will be a -very- bad entrance, seeing as I don't have much time to do something good - I'm on a public computer that has time restrictions.

And also, I'm assuming that SR = ShaRa?

Fleet Flagship - Shai'Hulud
(pic: http://img50.photobucket.com/albums/v152/doujincorp/ShaiHulud1.gif )
(Note: The Shai'Hulud is v. big, couple kilomters (that's v. big for me, at least :P)

"It is time to decide. Do we enter the conflict in support of the ShaRa, in hopes of negotiating technology transfers?"

The Council has decided on this matter, Admiral. We will in fact enter this conflict. Send the Aegir Fleet. Make sure that we exit this victorious, or you will pay heavily.

"That is understood."

The Admiral kneeled to the Image, as no one was allowed in the Council's chambers.

(We, the Void Seeker's, left Minbar a long time ago. While we have unique ship designs and many other unique things, many customs are the same. For Example, a "Council" similar to the Grey Council rules the Void Seekers aka Xendi.)

The Admiral walked out, and got onboard her own ship.

"Set co-ordinates for the Tiev System. We will be rendevuezing with the Aegir Fleet, and I will be assuming command for this conflict."

"Yes, Admiral."

The officer entered the co-ordinates into the ships highly advanced computers, and everything froze for a second as the rift was opened. The ship entered the alternate dimension, and 5 minutes later exited at the Tiev System.

"Contact the Shai'Hulud warship, Doujin (*grin* hehe..). Tell them I will be coming aboard."

"As you say, Admiral."

The communications officer keyed in the commands and announced the arrival of Admiral Shiva, who will be taking control of the Aegir Fleet throughout this conflict.

Onboard the Doujin

"Admiral Shiva is coming???"

The Captain of the ship looked extremely worried, knowing the history of Shiva and her subordinates.

"Shit.. this is not good. I expect you all to act highly professional, anything less from that will end up in permenant hull-cleaning duty."

The Captain of the Doujin is the only human officer in the Void Seekers empire. As such, he was extremely worried, not because of the aforementioned history between Shiva and her subordinates, but also because Shiva did not like the Human race. She would undoubtedly look for a reason to expel him from the Void Seekers.

Admiral Shiva
She marched off the ship and straight to the bridge, ignoring all other personnel aboard the vessel. She was hoping to catch the Captain and his bridge crew off guard, looking for any reason at all to put them under sanctions (Sanctions / arrest.. generally when Shiva has people sanctioned, they are tortured endlessly)

The Bridge Door opened, and Admiral Shiva stepped in.

"Captain, stand down. I am assuming control of this vessel." She paused. "Fix your uniform. The next time I see you, I expect you to be properly dressed as an officer of a Void Seeker ship. Is that understood?"

"Yes, Admiral. I am deeply sorry."

"Leave the bridge, Captain."

"As you wish, Admiral."

With a slight bow, the Captain exited the bridge - fuming on the inside.

"Now, man your stations. Set course to KLANDTHU. Signal the rest of the Aegir Fleet. Notify them that I am now in command, and that they are to follow us to ShaRa space."

"Of course, Admiral."

Both the communications and engines officers fulfilled their respective orders, and everything was set and ready. All ships responded their acknowledgement, and announced that their co-ordinates were set and ready to depart as soon as the Doujin engaged.

"As the ships are ready, depart for KLANDTHU. Open the rift, Lieutenant."

A rift formed, and the Doujin entered the rift which quickly closed. As soon as this happened, the rest of the Aegir Fleet opened their on respective 'rifts' and entered. Several minutes later, rifts on the otherside opened, and the Aegir Fleet exited 10,000 kilometers from KLANDTHU.

"Contact the ShaRa Fleet, and announce our arrival. I wish to have a meeting with their "commander"."

"Yes, as you wish, Admiral."

OOC: I apologize if I am not supposed to go to KLANDTHU, but ShaRa mentioned something about KLANDTHU in a telegram. And a little information on the "rifts". Each Xendi(Void Seeker) ship, can open it's own rift - a portal to a new dimension that has never existed before. These dimensions are created by the ships, and each is it's own dimension. Afterwards, they collapse and cease to exist.

Ship Numbers:
1 Shai'Hulud Flagship/Dreadnought (Several times more powerful than the Victory Class Destroyer)
3 Li'Ari SuperCarriers (Gigantic, but filled with hangers and not very heavily armed. It carries 24 Del'Dakkar gunships in the after part of the main hull, and has bays for 480 Tril'Dar fighters and 120 combat flyers.)
20 Eltureel Battleships - The Backbone of the Void Seekers
30 Morlathus Anti-Fighter Cruiser
51 Trelasta Elint Cruiser
(Ships below this are from the Carriers)
72 Del'Dakkar Class Heavy Gunships (Similar to the WhiteStar)
1440 Tril'Dar Fighters (Similar to the Minbari's Nial, slower and less agile but has more firepower)

If you have any problems with the above ship numbers or the rift tech, please say so. I've "rped" using rift tech before and no one mentioned any disagreement before.

(Here is a size comparison of the Void Seeker ships)
http://img50.photobucket.com/albums/v152/doujincorp/Void_Seekers.gif

OOC: Hmmm...interesting. Xendi: I will acknowlwdge your rift technology on the following basis:

1. It is not used to transverse "major" chuncks of space. We are trying to keep it somewhat sane in the sence that deploying entire fleets to battle... across the galaxy in minutes..is kinda pointless and not so much fun for RP.

The map is a little misleading in size, (my fault) but the general concenses is that each section is at "least", if not more in some cases, 24 hours (1 day) @ FTL. I'm not too adversed to "rift tech", but as far future I'm willing to accept is fludic, fold, or warp. I'll waite to see what the others have to say.

OOC: All good here. Sambo, might granting my ship docking rights please? they're getting bored orbiting the station....

OOC: Just a warning, I haven't had the chance to catchall upgrade my ships to newer technology, ie overhaul their outdated weapons systems. On the other hand, I don't have any "uber weapons", just old fashioned technology, with a bigger bang. It's all conventional.

And I also now have four MacArthur class battle carriers, bringing my total combatants to one-ninety-four and my fighter complement up to about 2500.

EDIT: My ships and fighters tend to be less technologically advanced than the others', plus my forces have a slightly disconcerting way of blowing up or colliding or taking more damage than they seem and being bounced out of action..... :roll: It all works out. I don't Godmod and I don't numberwank. :wink:

(Im here.... sorry been busy with school :P)
Any way
[code:1:e17f37a4a0] the the ShaRa from Space command we suppourt you fully and will dispatch as many ships that is nessrary to help you[/code:1:e17f37a4a0]

(rember my cap is 250 ships)

Sambizie Platform to LF Command...You are cleared to dock. Adjust speed and heading to Docking bay 7...thank you for your patience and enjoy your stay. Platform-out...

I was TG'd with a cap of 100-150ish ships, which is why I posted "low" numbers. *shrug*

The rifts aren't the travel itself, the ships travel at FTL speeds while in this new dimension. But since the dimension is relative to RL space, and the dimensions are controlled it significantly reduces the time it takes to travel great expanses.

(wanted to apologize for posting on the wrong nation :P)

OOC: Well, 200 ships is a better cap.

Doujin/Xendi: It's more the time issue, you know? RPwise, ICly, whatever you wish to call it, it makes a bit of sense if we have to actually make some tough choices. If we hit left, can we reinforce if they counterattack right? Or say, if our forces use missiles, can we be guaranteed our forces can be resupplied because it won't be too far and so forth. That is the issue, whether or not our ships are too fast.

Granger smiled and looked around the room when everyone had entered. "Just like old times. The four allies, the line in the sand, all that's defending our homes from the accursed Sha'Ra. Allies have come and gone and many have fallen in this struggle."

Granger pulled out a bottle of champagne. "Before we begin..... We should make a toast and salute our fallen comrades."

"Indeed we shall...To the Fallen", Mwto'ar stated. Mwto'ar took a sip of the champagne and set the glass on the table in front of him. He then pressed a small button, after which a large holographic screen appeared for all to see. "Welcom to the IVA Interface...Please state user and confirm ID", a computer voice stated. Mwto'ar stated his name and entered his pin number on the counsel. Please state destination Emperor.., the voice said. "New Sambizie..3,000 feet", Mwto'ar stated. Within a second, real-time satellite images of New Sambizie appeared on the holo-screen.

Down below on the planet surface, it looked as if blood was pouring from an open wound. The Sambizie Legions, dressed in red and black, pour into the desert by the hundreds of thousands. Also on the screen, what appeared to be 20 structures, were actually the Sambizie Capitol LV's. The colums of red were in route to these vessels.

The time has come once again where we must draw our line in the sand old friends. The Legions march, not for the defence of Siesana but for the hunt of the ShaRa....

DakBa Sector...
The McArthur Class Battle Carrier exited warp near the planet DakBa and slowly drifted between the first planet and the moon. "Battlestations!" the Commander yelled over the Com. The ships interior turned a blood red as the lights signified alert status. Within minutes, squardrons of Thorns, Mantas, and Hammerheads peeled of the flight decks as some ISSAPC's headed towards the planet surface. Moments later, several warp signatures were appearing as the Sambizie DE's exited warp and pulled alongside the Battle Carrier. "Sir, the fleet is arriving", the Ensign stated. "Have them assemble at their designated co-ordinates", the Commander stated. "Aye..Aye Sir...", the Ensign responded....

At this hour, the Sambizie Fleet is massing in the DakBa sector as previously discussed. The LV's will be loaded within the hour and will arrive in the DakBa Sector within the day. Time is nearing gentlemen..ladies. We all know what is on the line and this time, we will push harder than ever before. Let us once again march as brothers as we enter the coreworlds of the SR Empire. Let all those who oppose us be dualy warned...we will not fail...

Mwto'ar took a deep breath and once again enterd some numbers on the keypad. State destination Emperor.., the voice stated. "Irus", Mwto'ar responded. An unfamilure image appeared on the screen. It didn't look like a ship, (too small) and it was larger than a probe.

Let me introduce you all to Irus. Irus is the latest in Centry Development. This Centry Device will be activated within the day in the Siesana Wormhole. I will not bore you with the long technical blabber but, it is imperative that if any modifications have been made to your drivers, that you inform Station Operations. This device now gives us the ability to close the Wormhole without it's destruction. Irus will scan incomming vessels and request user athorization. You will each be given a Gate Command code, which will allow you to generate you own user codes for your vessels. These codes may be changed how ever often you feel. You may do this by accessing the User Interface of the Sambizie Defence Platform. Code changes will be logged at a classified location. I will trust that you all protect these codes as to prevent any hostile forces into this system.

Should an invalid code be enterd to Irus, the Centry device will open an alternate wormhole within the Siesana Wormhole, 3km's into the Asteroid belt at warp speeds. It is safe to say at those speeds, the ileagle vessel would be crushed within the belt. If there are any questions, comments, or plans, lets discuss them now...Time is running short and the SR may detect the fleet....

Mwto'ar then reached over and turned off the holo-screen and took another sip of his champagne...

Admirals Wilson and Albrect, along with General Baker had entered the room during the Emperors first speech. Their ship had docked and was now waiting for them to return. They took a seat as Admiral Albrecht began to speak.

"Greetings to you all. I am Corps Admiral Keri Albrect, commanding all of the commonwealth's forces in this conflict. The Cancellor, as well as the Vice-Marshall send thier deepest regards.

I would like to introduct my fleet CAG, Vice Admiral Wilson, and my Marine Commander, General Baker.

I belive it sensible to discuss our plans for this upcomming event. At the moment, Afek Nor is complete, fully armed and operational. The plans to construct a sister station have been cancelled. Supplies will be used towards the new project. The Construction of the Heavy Weapons Defense Platform; the Wake Island

Now that we have established ourselves in the region, we are ready, and pledge to take more action in this conflict to which we have promised aide. Knowing my place, as newer to the scene, I want to ask what you wish of the Commonwealth to do, in order for us to take victory on the field.

*tag*

*tag*

Mwto'ar nodded and addressed each member of the LF Commans Staff, by a shake of a hand and a smile.

Now that we have established ourselves in the region, we are ready, and pledge to take more action in this conflict to which we have promised aide. Knowing my place, as newer to the scene, I want to ask what you wish of the Commonwealth to do, in order for us to take victory on the field.

"Well...we find ourselves in a different situation", Mwto'ar stated. "You see, up until now we have been on the defensive side of this conflict.", he added. "To be frank, Recon. hasen't reported any activity since the last assult on Siesana over 20 years ago....which worries me most..." "We at least know that we pushed them far enough past the asteroid belt." "Our concern is that we suspect that they have taken positions among the inner planets of the system." "In addition to occupying the the core planets of the system." "So you ask; What do I wish for the Commenwealth to do to insure victory?" "Well...I'm not sure but it seems that we need to conduct heavy recon. of presumed SR targets." "The Sambizie Fleet is in place and we are conduction recon. missions within the DakBa sector." "So far, no ShaRa presence has been detected." "I have ordered the fleet to advance, once the sector is clear, towards the inner planets."

"However, we don't have SR troop strength, positions, ect..., so if we wish to make this our offensive, I suggest we find ourselves some targets." Mwto'ar stated. He then sat down and awaited for response from the others...

Vice Admiral Wilson looked to her CO and then spoke to the Emperor,
"M'lord, I believe that is exactly what is needed. And we can be ready for some heavy recon missions in less than 25 hours. Some of our newest vessels are ideal for the task. I also believe our marines would be able to make short work of any small ground bases. Give the word, and we can conduct these recon missions. Err, that is if Admiral Albrecht approves that is...
Albrecht chuckled and nodded approval, as Wilson stepped back in slight embarassment, she got too enthusiastic some times.

OOC: *thinks that ShaRa isn't going to realy be RP'in this much..*

"Adejaani forces need a week to fully integrate and get up to speed with the new weapons systems, but we're ready." Granger supplied and sipped at her water.

"Very well then", Mwto'ar stated. "Let's use this week to locate possible SR targets", he added. "The bulk of the fleet has arrived in the DakBa Sector and a small engineering team is in the process of constructing a Coms. Array", "Nothing to fancy...just for early warning purposes..." "I will have the General start his search for soft and hard targets, I will keep everybody posted daily..." "If there are any other questions?" he asked...

Emperor Mwtoar Uganda,

Per our conversation I have taken our alliance into consideration as well as the contracts which we provid for you and your citizens. As you know of our standing status with Aero-Tech, IVA, and the Sambizie Hammerhead Commision, we find it unfortunate that you and your allies are, what appears to be, prepping for war. If this is true, it is no doubt against the Shara.

I am placed in a difficult situation as most, (not all) of my "legal", contract-binding assets, lie within your controlled space. Some have interpeted our positions within your space as sympathetic for your Coalition. I know not of the hardships of your race as you faught to secure this system as we did not involve ourselfs with your first war. However, you must understand...that we have negotiated peace with not only you, but with the ShaRa Emperor as well. We have been dealing with the ShaRa long before your arrival in the Siesana Sector. Infact...I have been through this routine before...But it was the ShaRa Emperor asking for assistance in your destruction.

Let me point blank! I did assist them then and I will not assist you now. I have arranged for my fleets as well as some other allies to assist in Mining Operations and Shipping Lane Security. As we understand that the Siesana Wormhole will no doubt see an increse in traffic, TBM has cut production by one third in the GZNRII System. Thusly decreasing the amount of cargo ships entering and leaving the system. We will continue to operate until the colonies are deemed unsafe for production or habitation. This one third represents a majority of "our" business. Again, I will supply you or the ShaRa with materials until this "latest" conflict is resolved.

A TBM Cargo Vessel is enroute to Station 326. Due to it's travel through Demon Space, we are unable to recall it. The ship will supply the station for a 1 month hold, this should be time enough to make other arrangements for supplies. At this time, I respectfully decline your invitation. My fleet is under standing order not to fire unless fired upon.

Thank You for you time and understanding,
~Black Market Rep.~

OOC: Since I didnt get permission to dock Ill assume it was given and that Im at the meeting. :)

Emperor Roland looked around the room at his old friends...

"Brothers, sisters....this is indeed a troubling time." "As always the Blue Tide stands with you..." "Elara has upgraded alot , our ships may look the same but they hide new secrets, weapons and shielding upgrades to combat the best of fleets." "I look forward to standing on the bridge of the Fenrir and leading the Imperial Fleet into war with our old enemies." "You might notice some new Imperial vessels such as the Swanie Medical Ships...we also use a new fighter...and some other toys which you should all see soon."

Roland looks to Mwto'ar and put his armor covered hand under his cloak and pulled out a shimmering small vial of blue liquid and pushes it over to Mwto'ar with a smile.

"Give this to Swanie....you know what its for..." "Oh...and the new Elarian Fighters can cloak they might come in handy for Recon and I can send them immediately should you wish it." "We used a similiar prototype in the first war it went in Sha'Ra Space did some mapping....as well as blowing up...since then its been upgraded and is now our main fighter." "The Detri and Gentari have been retired."

Prince Sven spoke up.. "Father, shouldnt we tell them about the.."

"Silence!" Rolands eyes began to glow a bright blue, he then calmed himself.. "Forgive me...we need not discuss that here and now son."

Sven lowered his head slightly, the only man he would bow to was Roland. "Forgive me Father your right..."

Roland pulled out a bottle of Elarian Ale and with a smile put it on the table... "I was going to drink this with you all today...but I think we should save it for our victory...

Mwto'ar stopped Meridius's hand in mid motion, "Perhaps this is something you shoud present to her yourself dear friend", Mwto'ar stated.

Roland takes the vial and puts it back under his cloak with a smile as he stands. "Please excuse me all , Prince Sven will continue Elaras duties here at the meeting."

Roland walks to the door then notices the Imperial Guard trying to follow him. "Stay with Sven, Ill be fine."[i] [i]The Imperial Guard bows and walks back over to the wall behind Sven as Roland leaves the room...

OOC: So uhh, are the SR alliance gonna do anything or do we have to continue waiting?
