In The Gazi Pyrimaids.
THe Necrons all looked up, seeing how their allys where being killed. The Necron lord took his position on top of the Largest pyrimid, his SPadiers upgrading them to suit NEcron needs. He used a Eldar targeting matrix, and aimed the weapons at the Enemy fleet. He then sent out the order, and his Necrons fired the Gauss Planet side Cannon. The shot, if it hit, would cripple the ships, not destrying them but tearing apart their main components. The Cannon fired in rapid succeseion, the green blast heading towards a different target everytime.


North Africa

The two Torpedo Frigates continue to bombard the remaining forces with their Mk72 torpedoes. The missiles are targeted at any large target or group of targets.

One of the gunnery crew notices the commotion at the top of one of the pyramids and sends a couple that way.

Each ship sends out the torps in waves of eight.

OOC: I have no idea what you are doing on that pyramid. It was just a target that showed itself. If it doesn't hit then it doesn't...



Earth - Babylon Space Tower - Eastern Pacific Ocean

The small fleet dropped to Real Space and docked with the Space tower to resupply. The Vortex class vessel returned to it's secret location directly from T-Space. The Intruder Class Carrier returned to the Sol Shipyards to replace the lost Proteus Fighters.

Lord JWolf shake his hand back then say "It is new to meet you, too. I'm here to ask something. Why are the Sith and their ships in SOL, right now?"

"The Sith?!" Andrew exclaimed. "So, they have chosen to reveal themselves again. No wonder my senses were going hayware. What's the situation so far?"

-----------

The Sith fleet reverted to realspace inside Earth's orbit, near Venus.

"All ships, battle stations!" The admiral ordered as red lights swirled and klaxons sounded. "What's the situation so far?"

"We have orbitial defenses powering their weapons, and a fleet incoming!"

"Very well. When we get in range, open fire. Turbolasers, not gravity weapons."

"Yes, sir."

The fleet creeped forward like a dark shadow.

NORAD Command Center, Wyoming

"Sir, we have spotted some really, really big objects heading our way."

"What? Let me see." The General in charge of the base said. His cigar dropped as thermal images from satellites showed 25-something big ships and one really, really big commandship coming like children's nightmares. "Get me the President! Alert our allies to this!"

1700 EST
The White House, Washington DC

"What? More invaders? My God!" President Tiberius. "Alright. Full battle alert, now. Prepare for invasion."

He hung up the phone in the Situation Room. "All right. The invaders are coming. It's time to evacuate the White House and prepare for war. Are the Fifth and Sixth Fleets in place?"

"Yes, Mr. President. Their ETA to the Middle East will be 12 hours." The Naval member of the Joint Chiefs said. "All other assets are steaming to various strategic positions, including the east and West Coasts."

"Good. What of the Air Force and Army?"

"24 hr CAPs are online and the bomber squadrons are ready, though I don't know how much good they will do." The Air Force 4-star said.

"The National Guard and civilian militias are being called up right now. Sir, we'll give them one hell of a fight if they do land." The General of the Army reported.

"And, of course, the Marine Corps. We're ready to fight." The Marine Commandant also reported.

"Good. Now let's evacuate. I don't want a laser to hit my head." The President said, trying to inject some humor in.

The National Command Authority and his staff and family ran out of the White House and down to Marine One. 20 minutes later, the Blackhawk landed at Andrews Air Force Base, where Air Force One and NEACP (pronounced 'Kneecap') are waiting. The President and his family will fly on AFO, while the Vice President will go on KNEOC as a combination of diversion and separation of leadership.

The United States of America is ready for combat!

The United States of America is ready for combat!

"The Sith have not fire on Earth yet. Plus High Commander Johnson said that the admiral is in control of them." said Lord JWolf

"You mean Tarkin?" Andrew asked. "Damn. I knew I should have sacked him. Now I guess I'll have to defeat him in combat..."

"You mean Tarkin?" Andrew asked. "Damn. I knew I should have sacked him. Now I guess I'll have to defeat him in combat..."

"Yes. The High Commander said he had a Sith lord with him on Bryce Command. We will fight by your side, Emperor." answered Lord JWolf.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back at the outpost......

The WASF Timber Wolf fire it main weapon at the Kiss the Blade.

Plus all MSC start fire at it, too.

"Yes. The High Commander said he have a Sith lord with him on Bryce Command. We will fight by your side, Emperor." answered Lord JWolf.

"Very well. I shall be sending a fleet to aid you." The Emperor said. "In fact, I think I'll personally go and kick Tarkin's ass. He does need a good one."

The Emperor's cloak swirled as he led Lord JWolf to his personal hangar. "Here is where I keep my X-wing whenever I need to go on a state trip. Hello Rocky!"

His red-striped R2 unit beeped a greeting reply as he rolled to get ready for a trip. The R2 operated a magnetic crane and dropped into his droid socket.

"Very well. I shall be sending a fleet to aid you." The Emperor said. "In fact, I think I'll personally go and kick Tarkin's ass. He does need a good one."

The Emperor's cloak swirled as he led Lord JWolf to his personal hangar. "Here is where I keep my X-wing whenever I need to go on a state trip. Hello Rocky!"

His red-striped R2 unit beeped a greeting reply as he rolled to get ready for a trip. The R2 operated a magnetic crane and dropped into his droid socket.

Lord JWolf said "Cool." Then he turns to Black Wolf and say " Go have the Wolf One ready to take off." Then he turns back to the Emperor and ask "Do you think I'm stong enough take on a Sith Lord?"

Lord JWolf said "Cool." Then he turns to Black Wolf and say " Go have the Wolf One ready to take off." Then he turns back to the Emperor and ask "Do you think I'm strong enough take on a Sith Lord?"

"We'll take him together." The Emperor said reassuringly, holding up his own lightsaber. "In the meantime, I'll be activating my SSD Firebolt fleet. It'll take a while to get to Earth, though."

----

The Palpatine's Revenge fleet moved in close enough to attack the orbitial defenses and fleets.

"Ready...now!" The admiral ordered. The entire fleet began choosing targets and firing the regular turbolasers, ion cannons, missiles and torpedos. The special weapons, grav missiles/bombs and the superlaser will be held in reserve for big targets.

"We'll take him together." The Emperor said reassuringly, holding up his own lightsaber. "In the meantime, I'll be activating my SSD Firebolt fleet. It'll take a while to get to Earth, though."


"Good. I'm going to back to the WASF Alpha Wolf. I will see you at the battle." said Lord JWolf, as he was playing with his blue lightsaber, and wave to the Emperor then turns and walks back to the Wolf One.

On the Wolf One...

Black Wolf had the engine ready to take off.

Lord JWolf walk of the ramp and hit the buttom to close the door.

Lord JWolf sit down it his chair and says to Black Wolf "Head to the WASF Alpha Wolf."

The Wolf One takes off to go to the WASF Alpha Wolf.

The Emperor rose into the sky, and headed away from the Alpha One. He quickly jumped into hyperspace towards one of the many fleet locations he and his commanders know. The SSD Firebolt is a powerful ship. Bristling with thousands of weapons emplacements, it can fight and defeat whole fleets by itself. The 10 ISDs surrounding it are mainly to keep smaller ships away from the behemoth and used as (OMG OVERKILL!) escorts.

The WASF Alpha Wolf and the five Sword esorts took to meet the 386SF ships.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

After 2 hours....

The WASF Alpha Wolf enter the system where the 386SF ship are.

Lord JWolf: "Hail Captain Ivan's ship."
Comms-link man: "Done, my lord."
Lord JWolf: Captain follow us back to Earth. We have some big allies come there."
Captain Ivan: "Will do, my lord."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Aboard the 386SF Thor....

Captain Ivan: "To all 386SF ship follow the WASF Timber to Earth."
All Captain of the 386SF ship: "Yes, sir."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

After a few mins.....

The WASF Timber Wolf take off to go to Earth.

All of the 386SF ship follow behind the WASF Timber Wolf.

They will be there in 30 mins.

A massive fleet of WASF ships and 386SF ships have enter at the edge of the SOL system.

Secret IC:

Lord JWolf: "Hail the High Commander and the other WASF ships."
Comms-link man: "Done, my lord."
Lord JWolf: "All WASF ship will have some new allies coming. It is the Emperor of Corworlds. He is in the SSD Firebolt, his ship."
High Commander Johnson: "Good, my lord."

Lord JWolf: "Hail Captain Ivan."
Comms-link man: "Done, my lord."
Lord JWolf: "Captain have your fleet follow us to the other WASF ship."
Captain Ivan: "Will do, my lord."

The massive fleet of WASF ships and 386SF ships start heading for Mars.


OOC: Total of WASF ships in SOL is 37. About 30 of them are cloak around Mars.
Total of 386SF warships in SOL is 39. Total of 386SF fighters and transports is 100 fighters and 100 transports.

Than he could at least not corrupt real science.


OCC; If we were to use real science we would all be flying ion rock
shuttles in this space war. Thats not very interesting.

OoC: Meh, I stand humbled. It just kind of bothers me, though, seeing such blatantly incorrect information being thrown around, especially since M-theory, thus dimensional physics, is becoming something of a specialty of mine.

I'll tell you what you need to talk to anther of my allies.... INDRA PRIME
he works in physics and has a degree in it.

Doesn't he work in temporal physics, though? Or is it a more general degree?

OOC..

Well..uh....Theres one minor flaw to the 'missile attack' you wrote....they 'fold' to their targets-they dont fly there. If they miss, they miss, they dont manuver. If they hit, they hit because of the guidance given to them by the targeting info relayed by the launcher. ...In essense, its like a teleportation deal, making a warhead simply appear somewhere. The only way to 'spoof' the missiles is to fool the ship sending them itself, which your fleet was doing quite well with its disruption, but at the same time, would not work on the shots launched at the lunar surface, because they were simply aimed at the ground of a known object.

There's no real flight-time aside from the initial launch, so even point defense doesnt work. They are actually nothing more than undersized drives with a dallop of antimatter on the tip which is just to detonate the missile in a miss. In the case of a hit, the missile's destructive power comes from the fact that it materialized inside the object, attempting to displace the matter occupying that space already, and creating a massive energy release.

Dont get me wrong, definately a good posting...but....The missiles dont fly to their targets. (On the other hand, because of the way my missiles work, I dont have point-defense and anti-missile capability beyond ECM, so, the best I can do are frenzied gunner firing flak and rail guns hoping they can hit 'em...because where my ships are from..Anti-missile weapons are pointless)

OH yeah, and the first volley was aimed directly at the surface. The second was set to appear and self-detonate in the big cloud of sensor nothingness your fleet was hiding in.


OCC; Wait a minute BlackWolf I only targeted invader starships not
defender ships. According to the original list made by JINGO
STATE we are both defenders of Earth. Secondly I didn't target
the moon at all. As for my cloaks, they make my ships not only
invisible, but, entangable as well. I don't understand how phase
shifted ship would cause a big cloud of sensor nothingness.

OOC: I will play along with you. Plus I would the stats of your so call wrap missile. Like the size and etc.

OOC2: Plus the 386SF ship have head start on your missiles. They all about three LY away for Earth.

Secret IC:

The 386SF ship wrap into a system with a large star like sun. All the ships move to the other side of the sun and wait for the the missiles to come on the other side of sun. Plus the 386SF are facing away for the sun. So when the missile hit the sun, they will take off.

OOC3: Don't say they appear in front of my ship. I know how warp works. Ship A is being chase Ship B. A enters warp then B enters warp after it. Then A exits warp and does 360 turn. Then B exits warp and get hit head by ship A's gun.

Yes it would work that way if both ships exit warp at the same point in space.

OOC: They are in cloak. Nobody know they are there. So, your attack has been ignored.


You aren't very familiar with the technology behind the Klingon / Romulan Birds of Prey's cloaking devices are you. As I stated before there are ways of
detecting those types of cloaking devices if one knows what to look for.
Be that as it may, are all 50,000 ground troops also protected by cloaking
devices as well then?

OOC: Yeah, it is confusing. So far as I know, Kormanthor has 'chased' away several invader fleets, but we will be back, oh yes, we will.


;) I had no doubt that you would attempt to return

[OOC]: Since all the invaders to Earth seem to have left their space forces behind for now, i'm just gonna be going for Wolf America's outpost on the surface.

I have no idea when the LT's Gauss Gun on the planet was built, if at all, so I don't know if happens to have just materialized there or not, so i'm gonna hafta ignore it 'till I know how it got there, plus what it's firing at (When I say ignore, I don't mean a proper NS ignore, I mean i'll have to RP its effects once I know both who it's firing at and where the post detailing it's creation is.

As for the rest of the various fleets, I have no idea what's going on. I'd ask that everyone please post the current status of their fleets, the current actions they are focusing on, and the current position of any non-space based forces.

I have the Orbitals Pioneer One, Two and Three still hanging in Orbit, waiting for a large enough group of ships to commit themselves to attacking.

Marenus and his mini-fleet are at the site of the Balrogga/Lessr Tsurani battle.

My ground forces are just hunkered down at the fortress at the Antartic.

IC:

ABOARD THE BATTLESHIP KISS THE BLADE

"Godammit! They 'aint responding, and they're blasting each other apart! Open fire on them whilst they're still busy with each other!" screamed Marenus.

On screen ships were imploding from singularities, being crushed as they rammed into each other, and plain ol' blown to peices by each others' weapon fire.

Marenus watched as the boarding ships engaged their thrusters, speeding them up tremendously, only for the afterburners to kick in, driving forward on a stream of flames, their pointed fronts aiming directly for the Lessr Tsurnani flag ship.

Meanwhile, the Ruth was launching fighters, the tiny ships engines screaming into life inside the hangar, only to be silenced in the endless void of space, the pilots inside concentrating on the task at hand, already switching on the tiny shielding systems contained in the belly of the craft, and arming the various warheads and mass drivers on the front and belly of the ship.

"Ok people, time to party. Get everything but the Void Cannons online, I want them as a surprise for our little guests fleets. As soon as the mass drivers are online, focus all of them on the ship that just got rammed. The large ship fighting that one is to be targeted with everything else we have, and that includes the Ruth's fighters! I want their void bombs turning that thing into godamn dust!"

The various technicians in the room started working at the panels they sat at, adjusting power flow to the different areas of the ship, diverting power from the engines to the maneuvering thrusters and weapons, from the long range sensors to the targeting computers, and so on.

But, before even a single shot could be fired, the Balroggan fleet's remenants simply disappeared.

"What the hell!? Where did they go!?"
"No idea Sir, they aren't on any of the close range sensors."
"Dammit, focus all fire on the......"

Onscreen, the Lessr Tsurani ships had disappeared as well. All that was left of the fleets was the minature black holes that had popped up far enough away to have nearly no effect on the fleet, but still close enough to be exerting a tiny influence on them.

"....great, just great. Helm, get us back to Pioneer One. Also, Comms, signal Pioneer One, tell 'em we're heading back now, with no casualties."
"Sir, I can't raise Pioneer One right now."
"And why not?"
"Sir, because we're getting new orders already. We've been ordered to the surface of Earth. To be exact, the Ruth and it's fighters, along with the boarding vessels are to get to the surface. We've to simply provide cover for the Bombardment ship Halation Effect. It should arrive here in 4 minutes. When it does, it's going to soften up the enemy base with everything it has before the marines go on.

Also Sir, about the marines. We've got two more boarding vessels, Sacraficial Victim and Stranger Here Myself both moving in to the enemy base as well to complement On Hiatus and They Made Me Do It in the attack."
"All right then. Helm, hold us here, and signal the Ruth and the boarding ships to begin the descent. Remember, the Boarding vessels are NOT to get within range of anything the enemy might have down there until the Bombardment ship finishes softening them up."

And so the first Surface battle by Rinceweed began to form.


Aren't both of you defenders?

At the Wolf America's Outpost.....

All Mjolnir Siege Cannons are at full charge.

The WASF Timber Wolf uncloaked and starts charging it main weapons. It comes out of the clouds like hawk going after something.

High Commander Johnson: "Open a channel to the KISS THE BLADE."
Comms-link man: "Done, sir."
High Commander Johnson: "This is High Commander Hal Johnson of the WASF Timber Wolf. You have 30 mins to leave this area. If you not got in 30 mins or you will be destroyed."

OOC: Plus the WASF Timber Wolf is that big and bad a$$ ship in the last Star Trek movie.

If I remember right the Enterprise E defeated that ship, did it not?

[QUOTE=CoreWorlds]OOC: Still waiting for damages to your ships, Kormanthor.

OCC; Sorry about that, as I said before, blackhole weapons are something
new to me. However, I have already started research into these types of
weapons to help me try to understand how they might effect a ship.

EKHODAS

An Orbital Star Base
Of Kormanthor

Cloaked at an undisclosed
location in the Sol System


( As the camera finally focuses you are finally able to make out a huge
stately meeting hall. Within this room many people sit discussing the
fleet damage assessment. )

This is Susan Watersen reporting for KNBC News aboard Ekhodas Star
Base. It seems that at least one of the invaders here hit us with a new
type of weapon. A terrible weapon, which has the ability to cause quantum
singularities, or black holes. Let's go down to the floor to lesson to the
debate shall we....

The House Speaker recognizes Admiral Gwendilynne Danevai, Fleet
Admiral of the Second KorFleet.

Thank You Mister Speaker, Senators, Representatives, & Council
Members. I have just come from KorCastle, where I debriefed the King
and Prince Matthew.
As you know King Mateo is getting up in age, and has been
grooming Prince Matthew to succeed him as King someday.
I have come here before you to make my assessment of fleet damage
and loss of life caused mostly by this blackhole weapon used against us by one of the more advanced invading fleets.

First the UKS Celestial Dragon took many hits to it's shields, which
actually caused the ship to lose it's shield's for a minimal timeframe. As
well as, minor hull damage caused by blackhole hits. I regret to inform you
that over two hundred crew members were lost from this attack alone.
Thank the Good Lord above for our emergency forcefield hull
replacement & nanotech reconstruction technologies or the damage would
have been much worse.
The rest of the capital ships of the fleet suffered shield damage also,
but, no other was hit as hard as the Celestial Dragon. It is thought that the enemy wanted to make a statement by attacking the Flagship of the First Fleet. All ships recloaked following the attack and are now fully repaired.
But the worst of the attack was suffered by the starfighters and
smaller starships. I am deeply saddened to report that five thousand starfighter pilots of Kormanthor lost their lives defending Earth against these
aliens yesterday.
The final report that I have for you is that of the UKS Hammerhead,
a Defiant Class Starship, Captained by Monte Swekel & crewed by forty seven people & the UKS Sarahtoga, a KorIncursion Class Starship, Captained by Julia Strohm crewed by 419 people. Both ships were totally destroyed from a collision in low Earth orbit. The Hammerhead was actually caught up in one of the larger blackholes, which spun it around like a top. Then savagely threw the Hammerhead right into the pathway of the Sarahtoga while it was attempting to out manuver two other BH Missiles. It was reported that the resulting explosion was seen by many people on Earth itself.
Monte is survived by his Wife Karen, two sons & a daughter. Where as,
Julia was the daughter of the late Senator James Valterra and is survived by
her Husband Mark & twins Steven & Stephanie.
That concludes my report Ladies and Gentlemen. Finally, I would like to
take this opportunity to express my condolances to the families of
Kormanthor's lost hero's. I assure you that we will not forget
their sacrifice. Thank You


OCC: Opportunity KNOCKS for all defender countries. I am offering technological advancement opportunities to any allied defender of earth
in this thread. We will provide military equipment, weapons and the training needed to wield it.

Here are some examples, check it out:

SelveriKore’s HJ-58 Phoenix, a High Flying Ultra Fast Non Rocket, Air Breathing Scram (Supersonic-Combustion Ramjet ) Jet Powered Aircraft which fly’s at speeds approaching Mach Ten, this is the equivalent to about two miles per second or approximately 7,200 mph at sea level. Phoenix will also have high output fusion powered rocket engines in order to reach the Hypersonic Speeds needed to jump-start her scramjet engines while operating in an atmosphere. The rocket engines would also enable Phoenix to operate in outer space. Multiple versions of this aircraft have been designed; one for commercial airliner uses, & others for military applications. Our wall mounted plasma screen shows the aircraft stats:

*********************************************************************
Vehicle Type: HJ-58 Phoenix
Class/s: Hypersonic Bomber / Fighter / Spy Plane
Manufacturer: SelveriKore Inc.

MAX ROCKET THRUST: 35,000-50,000 kg x4 from VF-2475 rocket engines.
POWER PLANTS: Four Selveri Royce VF-2475 Rocket Engines
MAX SCRAMJET THRUST: 100,000kg x 2 scramjet engines
POWER PLANTS: Two Selveri Royce HJ-8779 Scram Jet Engines; Twenty-Four SelveriKore VFNM-58 high output vector thrusters for additional maneuverability
MEDIUM/LONG-RANGE MISSILES: Each wing of the HJ-58 has eight mount points on it for holding missiles and other armaments. Each mount point can hold one long-range missile or three medium range missiles (and other armaments are possible), such as cruise missiles or supercavitating torpedoes for under seas operations.
PHASERS: The HJ-58 has phasers mounted in its eye like ports (Could be for sale in the near future).

Secondly is the VF-7 Golden Dragon Aerial Battle Droid Fighter that will eventually replace the aging fleet of VF-4’s now in service of Kormanthor Aerial Command. The VF-7 Golden Dragon is SelveriKore’s totally redesigned version of the VF-4 what is so special about the VF-7Golden Dragon?
Well, lets start with the basics. The VF-7 is based on a SelveriKore Aerospace DragonRone Air Frame, What separates this fighter from the rest is what hides inside the body. It is a newly redesigned technology, what we call retransfigurative fighter technology, which allows the Golden Dragon to, for lack of a better word, transform, into a Battle Droid, also called Mech Mode. Each set up allows for a maximum use of abilities in or out of an atmosphere. Yes, that’s right, this fighter is capable of both endo and exo atmospheric operations.

* UKS Silencer here Ekhodas *

* Admiral Danevai we are assigning two more ships to Second Fleet;


1). UKS Rightous Fury
A Zoram-Class Battlecruiser

and

2). UKS Galactic Storm
A Moroni Mk III Heavy Battlecruiser

Put them to good use Admiral, Ekhodas Out

If I remember right the Enterprise E defeated that ship, did it not?

No, there was two other ships helping. Data destroyed.

And Rineweed can you answer post #255.

You aren't very familiar with the technology behind the Klingon / Romulan Birds of Prey's cloaking devices are you. As I stated before there are ways of
detecting those types of cloaking devices if one knows what to look for.
Be that as it may, are all 50,000 ground troops also protected by cloaking
devices as well then?

No, the troops don't have cloaking device.
Plus Bird of Preys had ever system but the cloak. VI said that he just found them.

OCC: Opportunity KNOCKS for all defender countries. I am offering technological advancement opportunities to any allied defender of earth
in this thread. We will provide military equipment, weapons and the training needed to wield it.

If you are interested in the details please contact me
here on this thread.

Kor

General Bryce nodded. "Send the reply. By god we'll accept this offer. We'd be fools not too."


Re: Technological advancement
My dearest allies, to whom the defense of Earth owes so much,

We in the Samtonian High Command feel that the offer you have given to us is most beneficial indeed. We are willing and ready to take you up on the offer.

Now, a few suggestions. If you could give us the know-how to make much more secure broadcasts, etc..., our leaders could rest easier knowing that our every move won't become decoded. The offer of weapons shall be forwarded to those subordinate staffers in charge of the areas spoken of, so all memos will now be sent to them as well.

We thak you for your help and pray that the Earth might yet remain in human hands!

Commander General Gerald Bryce, General of the Third Order, Commander HMFSN, SDTSN, and RTG, head of Samtonian JCOS.

"Sir, it is time to begin moving ships into the area." said and aid, to Lord Jingo. "Well then, launch the first phase of ships." replied Lord Jingo. "Immediately, my Lord." boldly said the aid, before turning and walking out of the room.

30 minutes later, 25 Pyramid Class Cruisers, and 15 Sunken Class Defenders, were moving out of the home system. Soon, space was being torn apart, as 40 transversable wormholes, one for each ship, were fromed. The ships flew threw their wormhole, rematerializing, on the other side of the sun. Upon, exiting the wormholes, the ships cloaked.

The ships would rest there for now, and wait for the first move to be made.


OOC: Crap, wrong name. Just FYI JINGO STATE is the future tech puppet of The God Falltothzu. I try to keep them seperated, but I screw up every now and then too...


OCC: I know what you mean

[OOC]: Ah, sorry, didn't notice the post WA. I should point out that KTB is still in orbit, and the only thing that's now on the surface is the boarding ships, which are still miles away.

Yeah, just an FYI. I'll put up my next RP post after I get a reply about how these MSC's can hit something that's in Orbit, plus, what do you have in Orbit that CAN hit KTB? And last of all, WHY are you attacking it? For one, not a single ship in Orbit has fired even a single shot at you, none on the surface are anywhere near you, and not a single transmission has went to you that might warn you of an attack.

The ships neared Earth and saw the confusion; ships moving everywhich way.

re: Meeting

Hello, Bonjour, Guten Tag, Buenos Dias, Konichiwa, Ciao, and Greetings! in whatever languages you speak. Samtonia looks on the proceedings in he last weeks with grave concern. Already, alien troops land on our very planet. Each day, their outposts grow larger and more defended.

We need to act. Command structure must be delegated. Intel must be shared. Plans must be formed.

The Samtonian Council of Thirteen would like to invite the representatives of your governments to a meeting. Couriers will be sent out with the location and directions. Please take care to keep your route to the meeting secret. We don't know the surveillance capabilities as of this time.

But hurry! Though our erstwhile allies in space keep us free from incursions, the won't be able to forever!


And as this message went out, all across Samtonia, thousands departed in every way possible, to confuse and throw off any observing enemies. Samtonia was trying to keep this meeting as secret as possible.

OOC..

Well..uh....Theres one minor flaw to the 'missile attack' you wrote....they 'fold' to their targets-they dont fly there. If they miss, they miss, they dont manuver. If they hit, they hit because of the guidance given to them by the targeting info relayed by the launcher. ...In essense, its like a teleportation deal, making a warhead simply appear somewhere. The only way to 'spoof' the missiles is to fool the ship sending them itself, which your fleet was doing quite well with its disruption, but at the same time, would not work on the shots launched at the lunar surface, because they were simply aimed at the ground of a known object.

There's no real flight-time aside from the initial launch, so even point defense doesnt work. They are actually nothing more than undersized drives with a dallop of antimatter on the tip which is just to detonate the missile in a miss. In the case of a hit, the missile's destructive power comes from the fact that it materialized inside the object, attempting to displace the matter occupying that space already, and creating a massive energy release.

Dont get me wrong, definately a good posting...but....The missiles dont fly to their targets. (On the other hand, because of the way my missiles work, I dont have point-defense and anti-missile capability beyond ECM, so, the best I can do are frenzied gunner firing flak and rail guns hoping they can hit 'em...because where my ships are from..Anti-missile weapons are pointless)

OH yeah, and the first volley was aimed directly at the surface. The second was set to appear and self-detonate in the big cloud of sensor nothingness your fleet was hiding in.

OOC: Do I have to change my post then? I am not very good at science and stuff so I only know enough to get by. Furthermore, I am only using Gundamtech, which is kinda inferior to your warp-drive ships and anti-matter missiles and whatnot...lol. It'll be kinda hard to defend against them :P

Plus I'm a newbie at roleplaying, this is like, the first full-scale RP I'm participating in...so I'll need the guidance of the veterans. lol

By the way, this question goes out to all Earth defenders. Does anyone have any space-based defence stations that I may need to take note of?

OOC- We've got the usual nuclear-weapon carrying satellites, some kinetic energy weapons (AKA Rods from God), lots'o surveillance satellites, and that's it.

[OOC]: Ah, sorry, didn't notice the post WA. I should point out that KTB is still in orbit, and the only thing that's now on the surface is the boarding ships, which are still miles away.

I tought you have the KTB was there. Just have them answer the warning for the High Commander and Lord JWolf (Look at Post #284). I have 71 ship at Mar. (Half WASF & 386SF)
I can't find the link for MSC.

By the way, this question goes out to all Earth defenders. Does anyone have any space-based defence stations that I may need to take note of?

[OOC]: I have 3 massive space platforms in orbit around Earth, plus their defence fleets.

A word of warning, when I say massive, I mean it. Each one is disk shaped, and in the case of Pioneer One, 40 Km from side to side, and in the case of Pioneer's Two and Three, 30 Km from side to side. These orbitals, along with the ones that I had flee from Earth before this battle, house my entire nation.

The Palpatine's Revenge fleet has begun to open fire upon Earth's defense screen from the direction of Venus' orbit. Turbolasers and ion cannons, not to mention torpedoes and missiles, begain raining down upon the orbitial cannons and satellites and what fleet they managed to scrape up. They are careful not to hit the Earth itself, but a light turbolaser 'accidently' hit the Hawaiian islands, causing major volcanic eruptions to occur due to the bolt hitting Mauna Loa.

To: All invading fleets
From: Admiral Tarkin
I do believe we can achieve a greater success
if we coordinate our forces against the defenders. What do you say?

Meanwhile, the Emperor arrived at the location of the Firebolt and activated the fleet from pirate duty. He ordered the fleet to Earth and it's ETA would be about an hour.

OOC: That means my main targets are you, Rincweed. *da da daaaa!*

ABOARD THE BATTLESHIP KISS THE BLADE

"Sir, we're getting a signal."
"Main Screen, turn on!"
".....Sir, it's an audio broadcast only."
"Uh, I knew that. Well, play the message."

Marenus and the rest of the bridge crew listened in silence to the Wolf America ultimatum.

".....Sir, your orders?"
"Great, just great.....well, the orders from Pioneer One still stand. The boarding ships are already going to be nearing the enemy base soon, so it's too late to call them back.....dammit, we have to continue with the mission. What's the ETA on the Halation Effect?"
"Roughly 0 Sir."
"What?"
"The Halation Effect just arrived Sir."
"Excellent. Signal them to begin the bombardment."

In the space next to the Kiss the Blade, the Bombardment ship Halation Effect began it's deadly barrage of weaponry, designed to obliterate the Wolf America base, leaving the soldiers with only a mopping-up operation.

The Surface of Earth

In the atmosphere, four sleek, jet black bullets skimmed across the surface of the planet, each carrying the deadly payload of marines, all armed, armoured, and well trained, ready to give their lives for their cause, Earth.

As they quickly neared the Wolf America base, the pilot called out to the marines over the intercom.

"Boys, it's time to kick ass. We're gonna make a few passes at the base, try and take out the cannons and scatter the infantry, then you'll be dropped off inside the compound so they can't turn the heavy weapons on you. Good luck."

The Halation Effect's weapons fire could be seen entering the atmosphere, each turning into what looked like a small meteor as they fell from the heavens towards the base.

ABOARD THE BATTLESHIP KISS THE BLADE

"SIR! INCOMING!"
"WHAT!? Raise the shields! Give power priority to weapons, emergency power redirection is to be put in place NOW! Whatever is after us, blow them out of the godamn system! And godammit, use the 'Void Cannons'! I don't want anything left of 'em!"

On the outside of the ship, mass drivers swiveled on their turrets in unison, facing the new threat.

OOC: Oh, man! Does that mean that I've been hitting the Earth all along? :D

IC:
"Sir, intel was wrong! The main orbitial defenses are on the other side of Earth!"

The Admiral started to chuckle. "So all we've been hitting are satellites and that cute little space station? Very well. Release the assault shuttles and take over the Americans! Have the forward Impstars circle and attack the orbitials!"

The assault shuttles, flanked by the TIE fighters, headed down to wards North America, while 5 ISDs began to orbit in search of the real orbitial defenses, weapons and shields armed and powered.

Random American couch potato: "Damned invaders! I lost my 1000-channel sat-TV!"

Air Force One: "Sir, we've lost all of our satellites and the ISS!"

"It's to be expected. But we will fight on." The President said. Air Force One is nearing the special military base known as Area 51. Unfortunately, there's no aliens or spaceships in there, just regular weapons-testing grounds and a hardened base of operations. The plane landed when the assault shuttles broke the atmosphere, screaming towards the ground.

Not long after, TIEs and F-15s began to duel in the air, the missiles mostly missing due to ECM. But the knife fights were deadly, as pieces of fighters started to rain down on the ground, setting fire to whatever forest or house they touch.

Home Planet
"I have decided to carry on with the attack. We will crush the Earthlings from both atmosphere and orbit. We will send in men behind the lines, on earth, to begin the infestation." was the message sent by Lord Jingo, to a select few top notch official within the government.

Ten men, dressed in full battle armor, with all their weapons and equipment. With them, where fifty replicator bugs, poised for expansion. They were in an underground bunker, standing in a large empty room.

Minutes later, the silence was broken. A large wormhole ripped through time and space, in front of this group. The replicator bugs than began to march through the wormhole, followed by the ten men.

When they rematerialized, they were all in a deep forest in the north-western United States. The group dug in and hide, while preparing to lay the seeds of conquest.

In the coming days, people from the surrounding community began to dissapear. They were made into hybreds, by the replicator bugs, a process that was not difficult. They were now completly under the control the replicators.

Another wormhole was opened to the same general area, every now and then. It brought more supplies and weapons to be given to the newly made hybreds. Many things were brought in, in the form of weapons. This included a few Repli-Fighters, disassembled and sent through wormhole in boxes, and then reassembled on the other side.

A secret base was being built, right on the surface of earth, manned mostly by earthlings, turned hybreds.

Behind the Sun
Captain Amelio sat in his chair, and watch as another 10 Pyramid Class Cruisers moved into an orbit above Earth.

Over Earth
The 3 Hunter Destroyers flew silently and stealthly, under a shield of cloaking. The three where searching for a target of opportunity. They had their torpedo tubes ready to expel the destruction. It was only a matter of time, until they saw the perfect target.

OOC: Can the wormholes be detected by whatever's left of the American sensors?

depend on what they have and where they are looking. I'd guess that it would ring up on an EM detection device, if it just happened to be scanning the area. I mean I only know a little about wormholes, but I'd have to imagine, that they would emitt some kind of energy.

OOC: Ok, then I'll have them show up on radar as large fuzzy blobs or something.

IC:
NORAD

Even though the satellites have all been destroyed, there is still enough radar activity to give a picture of the US. Blips denoted where the assault ships have landed and the TIEs. In Washington state and Oregon, large fuzzy blobs appeared in the dense redwood forests, prompting the Air Force to send some fighters to check it out.

Meanwhile, fusion tanks and AT-AT deployed at each of the 10 major cities in the country, from New York City to Orlando. The Army scrambled to fight back, and many losses occurred on both sides, mostly civilians as the lasers destroy skyscrapers and even Disney World.

The Sith Lord smiles at the destruction he is causing. Now the Dark Side rolls over the foolish Americans! We shall crush them like bugs!

In the darkened control room inside the mountian, there was no night or day. Shifts ran the whole year, 24/7, with various controllers scattered around the room observing sateelites and radar readouts.

Controller Anders thought that something was wrong with his DELPHI system readout. It showed abnormally large blips in orbit over Samtonia.

"Hey, Chris, come over here. DELPH's acting buggy again."

An embattled engineer hauled himself over in his wheelchair. He eschewed a more simple to use mechanical one to remind himself that nothing in life came easily. It required but a moment's work to verify the machine worked.

What the hell did you want me here for? It's working fine!"

Anders stared in horror. "Then those are actual ships."

OCC; Wait a minute BlackWolf I only targeted invader starships not
defender ships. According to the original list made by JINGO
STATE we are both defenders of Earth. Secondly I didn't target
the moon at all. As for my cloaks, they make my ships not only
invisible, but, entangable as well. I don't understand how phase
shifted ship would cause a big cloud of sensor nothingness.


....Dude. I wasnt talking about you. -I- shot at the moon! Also, do us a favor and read EVERYTHING before you reply, instead of merely throwing up post after post after post after post.


Now, A-O...'fraid so, to some extent with your post....I know how indefensible my missiles are to you all....but at the same time, I cant defend against yours, save for in my ECM/EW capability, and lucky potshots with anti-fighter defenses. Basically, the goal of my missile attack was to level your work on the moon..and then back off, because your fleet is bigger than my two ships, and can keep feeding people to the Moon, whereas I'll run out of missiles before I finished you off. And the surprise would work only once, really. Yeah, I could send more missiles into the moon as well, but it'd also destabilize the moon if I shoot it up too much...and therefore screw with earth. Bad Idea, if you know what I mean. So..Yeah...On the one hand....the missile attack on the surface was a success--a known object like the moon is impossible to miss, save for severe guidance errors on the opening leg of the jump. A cheap shot on you? Yeah, unfortunately. But at the same time, I can't hurt your fleet if I cant see it..and your ECM is real, real good. So while a stationary target like the moon is easy to potshot...I cant decimate your fleet with those missile attacks unless I've got a forward observer playing fire control for me.

Y'kinda get what I'm sayin?

Oh, and to answer your question-For orbital defenses, I've got two Orbital Defense Platforms, 120 missiles on each, and then a five-shot Hard-Cannon (Nasty-nasty laser cannon) on each for last ditch defenses. My mobile space forces consist of a Cruiser and a Dreadnought, and then I've got a wing of System Patrol Craft and about a total of Ten wings of starfighters, give or take a dozen or two... (36-48/wing)

And thats IT for my space forces.

Once again, all things aside...had I written missiles that had to fly in at you normally, I'd have thought your post great, and been quite pleased with the results. Unfortunately, due to the way the missiles I used work, that doesnt happen...But look on the bright side! If we engage each other inside of visual range, or hell, inside of 300 kilometers...I cant use missiles on you. Youre too close.....
..hint hint *wink*

Over Earth
A Pryamid Class Cruiser, tasked with monitoring the Earth Base, was floating aimlessly over earth. At least, it was floating aimlessly over earth, until a scanner mans noticed some little blips heading for the Earth Base.

Minutes later, the entire ship had purpose. It moved in a position over the Earth Base. Men were at battle station's unsure of what would happen next. However, one thing was clear, Earth Base could not fail. Of course, the ship could not go in and fight all the battles for the Earth Base, so for now, Earth base was by itself.

Earth Base
The commanding officer, one of the original ten, Major Jackson was made aware of the situation. "I want to prepare for a passive defence. Prep three Repli-Fighters for launch, but keep them cloaked. Hide the replicator bugs, and tell the hybreds to prepare for a fight, and to stay hidden as best they can." was the order he issued to his men.

The bugs, fell to the ground, in pieces, as the hybreds brushed dirt and leaves on top of them. Men climbed into trees, staff weapons ready to fire, and pilots hovered in their cloaked Repli-Fighters, waiting for the command to go.

"Unknown army, this is Commander McCormack of the United States of America!" The lead pilot of the F/A-18s sent to investigate the fuzzy blobs in Washington said. "Please state your intentions or risk destruction, over!"

Samtonian Strategic Weapons HQ, 1758 9/18/2004

The light began to blink. Puzzled, the seceretary looked through her manual. This one had never done that before. what did it mean?

And then she came upon the dsignation.

"Oh shit. This is going to be bad."

+++++++++++++++++
Every Samtonian Military Installation 1821 9/18/2004
As sudden as a gunshot ripping through a calm suburban neighborhood, the tranquility of Samtonia was shattered by the most dreaded words a Samtonian soldier could hear.

Now hear this! Samtonia is under a Phase-6 Attack! This is not a drill! Samtonia is under a Phase-6 Attack! Assume your positions! Phase-6 Attack! Repeat, this is not a drill!

And all over Samtonia, defenses began to activate.
Radars began turning.
Air raid sirens went off.
Samtonia was primed for war.

+++++++++++++++
"Send it out on all frequencies. Get that ship to listen."

As the general dictated the words, over every known radio wave, a message went out, aimed towards the massive ISDs slowly moving over Samtonian airspace.


Now hear this unidentified tresspassers! You are in violation of Samtonian airspace! You are to remove yourslves at once or face retaliation! Repeat, you are to remove yourselves at once or face retaliation. If a course change to heading 067 is not seen, you are to be held in violation of International laws and we will be authorized to fire the first shot.

This is a warning. We suggest you take it.

"Sir? Hear this."

"Very well. The Imperial Star Destroyer Valkyre will now commence an orbitial bombardment on this puny nation. As soon as we send the reply, of course." Lord Serpentus said.

You are foolish to think you can defeat us, puny Earth humans. Now face the power of the Dark Side and perish!

One minute after that, the ISD Valkyre opened fire on the major cities of Samtonia with it's turbolasers, raining green bolts of death upon the inhabitants, not caring who dies and who lives. Such is the depths to which the Dark Side can go!

OOC: BLOODY HELL! My mouse wigged out right as I finished a cool post, and ended up closing out the window before I could save! Okay, Jingo, theres a team of STARMOR II infiltrating your little base on the ground, since it was given away to our sensors by the energyspike a wormhole on the surface woudl cause :P

I'll have a full post written up tomorrow, when I'm not as tired..

The BlackWolf Order: Just so I know what I'll be dealing with later, whats a STARMOR II ?

EDIT- Is it just like a special ops team, because it sounds like something more.

"Unknown army, this is Commander McCormack of the United States of America!" The lead pilot of the F/A-18s sent to investigate the fuzzy blobs in Washington said. "Please state your intentions or risk destruction, over!"


"Sir I'm getting a transmission from those planes heading towards us, they wanna know what we're doin, what should I say?" yelled out one of the pilots, from the now open cockpit of his Repli-Fighter.

Major Jackson sprinted the short distance through the thick woods, until he came up upon the Repli-Fighter. He pushed the pilot aside and pressed in the comm-link button. Before he spoke, he thought to himself, that this might be a good opportunity to make a few more hybreds.

"Oh thank God! Me and a few of my friends are lost out here in the woods. We have no idea where we are you gotta help us! You're the first person I've been able to get on this stupid radio. We've been here for like a week. We ran out of food and water a day or to ago. You gotta send someone to help us man!" was the message Major Jackson sent. He spoke as if he was a frantic young man.

Major Jackson and the pilot the resumed their previous hiding spots.

"Sir? Hear this."



"Very well. The Imperial Star Destroyer Valkyre will now commence an orbitial bombardment on this puny nation. As soon as we send the reply, of course." Lord Serpentus said.

OOC- Right. Which of the 19 cities with populations over 25 million or the hundreds of cities with populations of over 500,000 are you targeting? Just wondering. There are a lot of them

OOC- Right. Which of the 19 cities with populations over 25 million or the hundreds of cities with populations of over 500,000 are you targeting? Just wondering. There are a lot of them

OOC: Let's say the 9 largest cities. The other cities I'll probably bombard later or try to invade as the Sith gets desperate.

"Sir I'm getting a transmission from those planes heading towards us, they wanna know what we're doin, what should I say?" yelled out one of the pilots, from the now open cockpit of his Repli-Fighter.

Major Jackson and the pilot the resumed their previous hiding spots.

"Very well. We will send aid." The commander said, and radioed his base to send the help. Not long after, A Blackhawk, a medical chopper and 2 Apaches took off for the general area. The Blackhawk contains Army troops and the Apaches are fully loaded.

The council grimly looked at the data scrolling across the screen. Of course, they weren't actually in the same room. One member was in a bunker in each of Samtonia's largest cities. this way, no quick coup-de-grace was to knock out Samtonia's com,mand structure.

The numbers on the screen slowly rose. 500,000; 550,000; 567,000.

Councilman Varrakas shook his head. "The numbers of civilian deaths are rising rapidly. Even with most in the air-raid shelters, thousands are dying. I propose that we strike back, and hard."

All the other members nodded.

The Leader of the Council rose. "Very well. We will implement launch AZ-56. May god help us."

++++++++
Repeat, launch code AZ-56. Target enemy capital ship, coordinates C-678-45D. Full authorization is given. You are weapons free.

All over Samtonia, the same words were being spoken, through speakers and computer screens. And Samtonia was about to retaliate for the death of her citizens.

+++++++++
All over Samtonia, silos began to open. As klaxons blared, the forms of ICBMs could be seen slowly streaking into the sky. Fiery death was aimed at that one ISD.

At the same time, hundreds of decoys were also launched. Containing no nuclear warheads but composed of the same materials as their more dangerous brothers, they were to serve as a destraction and add their fuel and mass to the impact point- Namely one massive ISD.
+++++++++
Twenty Samtonian Ballistic Missile subs rose to firing depth. Targets varied; four were to launch at verified enemy positions on the ground in North America while the rest were to target the massive ISD raining death upon Samtonia. The launches began within seconds of one another. hundreds more missiles streaked into the sky.

Roger that Braveheart, you are weapons free. Flight Braveheart, you are weapons free. Launch in three...two...one...missiles away!

Twenty-six squadrons of Samtonian near-space fighters were sent out towards their maximum flight ceiling, where each plane from the flights of six released a Shieldbreaker-6 nuclear-tipped high-impact penetration missile.

Designed to penetrate deep underground then detonate their nuclear warheads, these missiles, originally designed as bunker busters, were to impact after the massive strike of missiles hit the ISD. This would hopefully allow penetration of the armor of the massive cap ship.
+++++++++
As all this was going on, three of Samtonia's kinetic-energy satellites began to turn. AS they neared the point of aiming a few degrees above the ISD, one by one they fired, the massive spikes of adamantium-tipped steel rocketing out into space to disappear above the haze of satellites surrounding Earth and rain down on the ISD, hopefully adding to the destruction.
+++++++++
And all over Samtonia, missile defense and fighter crew waited. Waited for some kind of incursion into Samtonian airspace they could deal with. For now, this was up to the Strategic Munitions.

OOC- This means roughly you have the launch signatures and the radar signs of about 10,000 ballistic missiles. And three huge metal spikes.

Many are decoys, either radar or actual metal constructs.

In reality, a little over 400 ICBMs and the like missiles are streaking towards the ISD. Of course, each ICBM carries multiple warheads.....

And remember, the ISD will not have many point weapons. They rely more on their long range guns and TIE fighters to protect from enemy fighters.

And with these tiny missiles and the launch signatures of hundreds more, you haven't a chance in hell to intercept them all- Or even most. Remember, your other ISDs have moved away from this one. Sitting duck.

Now, on to shields. Multiple nuclear blasts will knock down portions of the shields. This is demonstrated by Proton torps (which are nukes), when fired in quantity, knocking down shields of things up to SSD in size! IIRC, thjere was an Imperial battlestation made to do this to planetary shields, knock them down quickly and then send turbolasers into shield generators, etc....

Just me trying to show you why that ISD is sorta screwed right about now.

Puny Earthlings indeed...

Also, you've got around24 nukes going at troop concentrations on the continental US. they've got much smaller payloads, but will still decimate a medium-large city. Of course, they're headed to your troop concentrations outsde of major American cities, or to cities you've almost completely taken over.

In short, there's nukes a'comin! Sorry USA, you'll get an official explanation a little later...

EDIT- BTW, here's my map. See the large cities?
http://img17.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img17&image=Samtonia.gif

Samtonia: I hate to be hindrance, to the smoothness of the RP, but about the ICBMs heading towards North America. More specifically, are you attacking my base, because if you are I would like to know how you found out I have troops there, because I don't see anyway that anyone could know that, but maybe I'm missing something.

OOC- No, not your base. I'm assuming the one in Oregon is the one you're talking of? I am launching them at the troops CoreWorlds has obliterating major American cities, as well as Disneyland. The monster!

Though if I'm wrong and that is not happening, I'll retract my staements to the contrary.

"Ok" yelled Major Jackson, as he ran out from his hiding place. "We're gonna set up a trap here for them. I want three young hybreds to be bait. Beat them up a little, put them back in their earthling clothes, take away their weapons, and tell em to sit down ontop of where we hide all the replicator blocks. Everyone ditch the staff weapons back in the reserve pit, with all the others. We're goin zat'ni'katels only. For you who have never used them before, remember the first hit stuns, the second kills, and the third disintegrates the body. We wanna just stun so we can turn them into hybreds. I want everyone remain hidden, but with a clear shot at them. Remember, we can't let any radio transmissions from them, to get out. Now lets go, move move!" continued on Major Jackson.

OOC- No, not your base. I'm assuming the one in Oregon is the one you're talking of? I am launching them at the troops CoreWorlds has obliterating major American cities, as well as Disneyland. The monster!

Though if I'm wrong and that is not happening, I'll retract my staements to the contrary.

Ok, thanks for clearing that up for me. Yea I never really specified where mine was, just in the north western United States, deep in the woods. Sorry if I was a problem.

OOC- Nope, no problem. If I thought I was about to be nuked, I'd ask questions as well!

"Well, now I feel almost jelious." President Stanton quipped, as he viewed the large screen that had been set up in the situation room, showing the globe and the dreaded ships in orbit.

Wernick made some movements on a side console, and the continental United States jumped on to the screen. The red marks were everywhere, showing the invasions they knew about, and thought they knew. "They managed to assualt the Americans quite easily. They've taken, entered, or other wise attacked ten cities, by the reports we're seeing."

the SecDef pressed a few more buttons, and the Nation of Samtonia appeared. "Now, Samtonia is a bit worse off. The enemy has started to hit it from orbit. Unfortunatly, that's all we know for now. As you can guess, Sat Recon is a bit spotty." The briefing finishes off with a summary of the situation in Africa.

The President nods in thought, considering his options. He speaks. "Tell the United States, /again/, that Triancain forces are ready to assit them. Then get Samtonia on communications. I want to talk to there Council personally.

Once communications are estbilished, President Stanton sends this messege:

"Can you give us any worthwhile targets you would care engage in a joint strike?"

The Leader of the Council nodded to the Triancian President.

"We'd like to thank you for your offer of assistance. As you know, we must all hang together or most assuradely we shall all hang seperately.

Our officials say that they'll deliver a situational update as soon as our strike hits. If successful, we will attempt to repeat it again in the future. If not, It will be your turn to try.

I suggest we keep these lines of communication open in the future. We never know when we may need it.

May we fight off these aliens and survive!"

Nireva - Parliament.

"Any answers to message?"
"Just one.. Encrypted now."
"From?"
"Samtonia. And.. They're under heavy attack."
"Shit.. Get me to the location what they said. Ask for it, if you don't know. And send 150 Gripens to there. I WANT THOSE ALIENS OUT! It's OUR planet. NOT THEIRS."
"Yes, sir. But.. They've launched their ICBM's already. I don't think they need our help now."
"Then.. Don't send. But.. Get us to Defcon1."
"One?"
"Yes."
"But.. It's only when there are possibly of nuclear weapons.."
"I know."
"Are we.. Gonna use them?"
"Maybe.."
"Shit."
"Oh. One more thing. Try to modificate our WMD's, so they can go to space. And blow there."
"Oh.. I see."
"And same thing to Buk M1 missiles."
"Yes, sir.

Oh. One more thing."
"Yes?"
"Triancia seems to have alliance with Samtonia."
"Well. Good. Ask for alliance with them. We need allys now."
"Yes, mr. president."
And colonel left, sending messages to Samtonia & Triancia.

3 minutes later.

"Um. Sir."
"Yes?"
North America seems to be under Alien control."
"Shit.. Send the Yorktown carriers there. With other ships. Even if we have to bombard whole America."
"Yes, sir.."

Ooc.
Samtonia, where your land is? I'd like to know the damn ETA, if I send something there. :p
And Buk M1 is my best AA weapon, at the moment.
And. JINGO STATE; Watched Stargate a bit? Zats. :p
And Jackson.. [Well. Thought he's dr.?]

OOC: Where are you, on Earth, Nireva?

IC: "Sir, were should we attack first?"
"Wait, I'll pick a target."
"Hurry up!"

((This was supposed to be posted before you began putting out your ruse, Jingo, so I'm going to back-post it to then.. Also in here will be a basic description of STARMOR II for you. I don't give my stuff 'stats' and such things for the most part-the most you'll see me give is payloads, magazine sizes, and other such things needed to flesh out the story.)


Undisclosed location
United States of America
Earth, Sol System
Fireteam Bravo, B Co.
1st STARMORED Battalion

Ever since the strange energy spikes had been detected by the Net, the eight members of Fireteam Bravo had been infiltrating the area. The energy spike itself was strange enough; it occured in the middle of nowhere, over a thousand klicks from the nearest hostile activity. It had repeated itself several times again and the background energy of the area was beginning to build in a manner divergent from the rest of the planet's background energy.

The Stealth Assault Helicopter, Hawk's Beak, had been launched as soon as the STARMOR II-wearing soldiers were shuffled from the SPC delivering them to the surface to the Helicopter's troop racks. No longer would the bird be a gentle mule to carry along the dignataries of state; it returned to it's past life of destruction. It had been refitted from supplies brought by the Psamtik, its formerly empty payload bays full once more of destructive ordinance. Failed sensors and avionics were replaced and the twenty-two millimeter nose-cannon was once more fed live rounds.

Even now it waited for the extraction or support orders from the Fireteam, hidden from view and discovery. The ECM, Chamelion Net and old-fasioned woods-craft kept it a secret, ready to burst forth and lay down her death from above in ways that hadn't been done in almost thirty years.

The Fireteam had been inserted almost two hundred klicks away, but they were able to cover ground as a cheetah on the savannah. Their STARMOR II was the columniation of human armorsmithing technology, implimenting the hard lessons learned of STARMOR from war and the Karhaa.

Outwardly, it appeared the same as the standard STARMOR suit; jet-black in color and roughly two meters tall, dependent upon the soldier it had been fitted for. The arms ended in five-clawed hands, complete with opposable thumb-claws. The claws were capable of tearing through any material weaker than the STARMOR's own armor. Weapons payloads were similar, and the suit retained the built-in wrist-mounted Pulse Cannon. It still was capable of sustaining the user for long periods of time and could do so even in the cold of space, with appropriate recharges. Both suits still retained Jump ability, giving the suit unparalleled manuverability. But that was where the similarites ended.

Internally, the suit had been redesigned from the ground up. New shock-absorbant gel padded the interior of the suit, making it more difficult to hurt the soldier fully encased in the ARMOR. Sensors, control systems and life support monitors were all improved, making the wearer of the STARMOR II capable of detecting even a handful of Bacterium Cells from a hundred meters. The conglomeration that was a Skulk could be detected from even farther away, and a Hive could be pinpointed while still kilometers away.

An internal power-plant provided the energy the suit needed to stay active in the field for days or even weeks at a time without a recharge. The new power system meant the suit could also carry larger, more capable weapons, even the newer prototypes which required a secondary generator to operate. Due to the nature of having such a powerplant inside the suit, however, the destruction of a STARMOR II's core would be catostrophic. This danger caused a revolution in technology, giving the unit's armor the ability to contain the blast, with enough given suit integrity left.

Production techniques for the STARIDIUM armor, the namesake of STARMOR, had been improved by this technological revolution, a new, nearly flawless nano-extrusion process coming to the fore. The new technique made the armor capable of standing up to a Fade's slash or a Skulk's bite, or even able to maintain shape after being trampled by the massive Onos. Against technology, STARMOR II was more durable, but high-calibur rail guns, plasma cannons and Penetrator-Type Hypervelocity missiles could still cut through the new outer shell. Built into a sub-layer of the armor was an electrical field generator, capable of cleaning off the exterior of the suit of trace Bacterium. Unfortunately, the speed of the new technique ment production time for a suit of STARMOR II vs STARMOR was almost twice as long, making it more difficult to replenish lost units.

In the onboard computer itself, the AI was improved to a drastic point, enabiling the computer to assist the wearer in new ways previously only wished for. The AI could sort data and take care of minor suit functions and commands, leaving the wearer to focus on his job---fighting.

Eight of these precious STARMOR II suits were given over to this infiltration out of the hundred and twenty brought aboard the Psamtik. Being an infiltration, they could not carry as many weapons as most teams would like, but they were still outfitted rather heavily. Each member had at least one, if not two, shoulder-mounted HVSAM Launchers as well as their built-in pulse cannons.

The team's leader, Staff Sergeant Nathan Mills, and the rear-guards man, Sergeant Brian Flemming, both carried a massive twenty-two millimeter rotary autocannon and a secondary ammo feed mounted on their second and fourth racks. Private First Class Vernon Coreys, the point-man, lead the team with his MORGREN, a combination Light Mortar/Heavy Grenade launcher. Mounted on weapons rack four was a .50 calibur Light Machine Gun, to suppliment the MORGREN he carried.

Behind him was Specialist Steve Franklin and further back was Specialist David Bowie, the heavy-weapons soldiers. They each carried a Heavy Plasma Cannon aside from the built-in weapons, racked on their backs.

In the center of the group, directly in front of Sergant Mills, Sergeant Gavin Horn carried his twenty-two millimeter Sniper Cannon. The weapon was aptly named because it was no simple sniper's rifle. While the stores on the Psamtik made the newer, quieter twelve-millimeter available, the sniper preferred the louder, more vicious power of the Cannon and it's accuracy was never questionable. With it, a hit was always fatal.

The last two members of the Fireteam, Sergeant Daniel Ellis and Specialist Bryan Lyons were much lighter armed. In addition to the built-in rockets and pulse cannons, they simply carried standard 7.62 millimeter Assault Rifle with underslung grenade launchers. Sergeant Ellis was an Engineer, ten years in analysis of spatial anomolies, along to look at whatever technology was to be found at the center of the strange emissions. Behind him followed Specialist Lyons, a medic and STARMOR repair technician.

The team moved through the temperate forest in a single file line, Private Coreys leading the way. While being the lowest ranking of the squad, he was also the quietest in the STARMOR II and a capable tracker. Creeping through the brush, he froze and raised a fist. His next signal was an open palm, dropping towards the ground. The team slowly settled to their knees and waited.

"Sarge, I've got somethin' up ahead of us. Not sure what it is, looks kinda strange on my reader," Coreys subvocalized. His whisper was heard clearly in Sergant Mills' ear, sent over the High-Com system built into the suits.

"Got a bunch of them, actually sir. Strange energy. Also see a patrol of some sort...looks human, but the readings are slightly off."

The sniper, Sergeant Horn, chimed in over the com. "Y'want me to off 'em? Can guarantee there wont be much left of 'em."

"No," Mills said. "We'll go around. I dont like that mass of strange energy readings ahead, I want to see if we can find some base structures or something. Wait for the patroller to pass, and we'll move on. Take us around whatever you're reading there."

"Roger that, Sarge."

A half hour later, they were moving again, searching for a base, their passive scanning gear sniffing out for anything out of the ordinary in a forest.

OOC: Where are you, on Earth, Nireva?

IC: "Sir, were should we attack first?"
"Wait, I'll pick a target."
"Hurry up!"

Ooc. As I've many times said: Finland. Northern Europe. :p

Pointless ic:

"Um. Sir?" Sergeant Multanen asked.
"Yes?" lieteunant Mylly answered.
"Why we are on Defcon1?"
"You don't know?"
"No. Thought they're not enemys."
"They're. But it haven't been on news.."
"Censored?"
"No. We don't censore. I don't really know why it haven't been on news.."
"Okay, sir.."

OOC: Sorry. I'm not gonna' go through 22 pages to find Finland. That would be boring.

IC: "Take us down to Finland. I think they would enjoy a visit."
"Yes m'lord."
The ships in orbit over Earth launched many dropships. Within these dropships were: 100,000 Thousand Sons and 100 Dreadnoughts.
OOC2: If you want info, ask.

OOC: Do I have to change my post then? I am not very good at science and stuff so I only know enough to get by. Furthermore, I am only using Gundamtech, which is kinda inferior to your warp-drive ships and anti-matter missiles and whatnot...lol. It'll be kinda hard to defend against them :P

Plus I'm a newbie at roleplaying, this is like, the first full-scale RP I'm participating in...so I'll need the guidance of the veterans. lol

By the way, this question goes out to all Earth defenders. Does anyone have any space-based defence stations that I may need to take note of?

occ: Yes I have many space based defense stations. However, they are at
present all on DefCon On Alert status. Because of this they are all cloaked
with my Phantom Cloaking Device which renders the cloak object not
only invisible, but, intangible as well. Also sense some of the invaders opted
to bring in NPC allies, I have done so also. Hense, Admiral Lightwalker of the
Triadian Federation. The Triad is a huge & very powerful empire that rules
a large area of the Andromeda Galaxy. So yes it is something that you
should be concerned with, although I'm thinking you all have in a word, bitten
off more then you can chew, so to speak.

The Dropships sped over the Northeren sea, heading for Finland.
"How far 'till target?"
"At least 5 miles."
"Good, prepare weapons."

General Bryce nodded. "Send the reply. By god we'll accept this offer. We'd be fools not too."

Official Communique to Samtonia
Re: Technological advancement of Earth Defense Allies

We thank You for the high praise,but, the truth is that we still have a
long row to hoe with these damnable aliens. Even though we are
technologically more advanced, we do not chose to believe for a moment
that we can do this job by our selves. That is why we have made this offer
in the first place. Secondly, by excepting this offer you are agreeing to not
use this technology against this country or any of our allies. Further, we
wish to set up a permenet base on your soil where we will base our advisors and technicians. In return, we will give you future tech. & the training to use it, which you can use to defend Earth with and thereby defend your country as well. If this is exceptable to you please let us know. The team of advisors, technicians, etc... are even now being assembled, we will arrive by transporter from Kormanthor as soon as we recieve you agreement contract. I hope we may become great friends & allies even beyond the conculsion of this invasion attempt.

Signed

Adm. Danevai

OOC: Can the wormholes be detected by whatever's left of the American sensors?

OCC; We are watching every move you make, if not by our own technology
then by allied technology.

OOC- This means roughly you have the launch signatures and the radar signs of about 10,000 ballistic missiles. And three huge metal spikes.

Many are decoys, either radar or actual metal constructs.

In reality, a little over 400 ICBMs and the like missiles are streaking towards the ISD. Of course, each ICBM carries multiple warheads.....

And remember, the ISD will not have many point weapons. They rely more on their long range guns and TIE fighters to protect from enemy fighters.

And with these tiny missiles and the launch signatures of hundreds more, you haven't a chance in hell to intercept them all- Or even most. Remember, your other ISDs have moved away from this one. Sitting duck.

Now, on to shields. Multiple nuclear blasts will knock down portions of the shields. This is demonstrated by Proton torps (which are nukes), when fired in quantity, knocking down shields of things up to SSD in size! IIRC, thjere was an Imperial battlestation made to do this to planetary shields, knock them down quickly and then send turbolasers into shield generators, etc....

Just me trying to show you why that ISD is sorta screwed right about now.

Puny Earthlings indeed...

Also, you've got around24 nukes going at troop concentrations on the continental US. they've got much smaller payloads, but will still decimate a medium-large city. Of course, they're headed to your troop concentrations outsde of major American cities, or to cities you've almost completely taken over.

In short, there's nukes a'comin! Sorry USA, you'll get an official explanation a little later...

EDIT- BTW, here's my map. See the large cities?
http://img17.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img17&image=Samtonia.gif

OOC: You forget one thing: they're slow compared to what ISD point defenses (laser cannons, light turbolasers and fighters) usually defend against. Anyway, I'll take damage. Oh yeah, and whenever a orbitial bombardment by turbolasers occur, there's large lakes of lava due to they melting the crust.
And who the hell do you think you are, nuking the US?! Grr...time to retaliate.

IC:
"Missiles inbound, sir! They're retaliating!"
"Right! Vector our fighters to shoot them down! Ready the point defenses! and make sure the shields are up!" The captain of the Valkyre ordered.

As the ballastic missiles are fast, but not that fast, most of them were shot down before they could hit. Some fighters went after the missiles inbound for the United States. What's left of the missiles got past the point defenses and impacted against the shields. The shields held, but some energy leacked through, destroying cannons and breaching the hull of 2 forward sections. The Star Destroyer was damaged, but nothing to worry about, especially not for Sith.

-------

Out of the 24 missiles that were aimed at the US, one landed at Orlando and another at Los Angeles, basically destroying what's left of the cities. When the President heard who did it he was enraged because he believed that someone took advantage of the invasion to try and take his country out and assassinate Mickey Mouse in the process.

"Where did they come from?!" He asked, in a fury.

"Sir, landbound radar has tracked them from Samtonia. More also went for that...Star Destroyer." The aid leafed through notes gleaned from the fans. "It appears that they are seeking to destroy troop concentrations and retaliate for their people's deaths in the bombardment."

"And they had to destroy our own people in the process?! I want our ICBMs to Defcon 1. Bring me the nuclear suitcase!"

"Right here, sir." An aide opened up a computer that linked to SAC.

"and get me the Council of Samtonia while you're at it!"

To: Council of Samtonia
From: The President of the United States
We are most furious at this blatant attempt to take advantage of our war against the invaders!
We demand an explanation, or we'll retaliate!

As much as the President didn't want it, he would have to retaliate without a sufficient explaination. The people would demand it so.

------------

The Sith Lord then decided that Samtonia will be his next nation of slaves.

He ordered the VSD and one of the Acclaimator cruisers to descend into the atmosphere, and Lord Serpentus ordered the craft to wait and see if the Americans would retaliate.

The ships neared Earth and saw the confusion; ships moving everywhich way.
"Stay here, and keep us cloaked."
"Aye sir."

OOC: Ok, then I'll have them show up on radar as large fuzzy blobs or something.

IC:
NORAD

Even though the satellites have all been destroyed, there is still enough radar activity to give a picture of the US. Blips denoted where the assault ships have landed and the TIEs. In Washington state and Oregon, large fuzzy blobs appeared in the dense redwood forests, prompting the Air Force to send some fighters to check it out.

Meanwhile, fusion tanks and AT-AT deployed at each of the 10 major cities in the country, from New York City to Orlando. The Army scrambled to fight back, and many losses occurred on both sides, mostly civilians as the lasers destroy skyscrapers and even Disney World.

The Sith Lord smiles at the destruction he is causing. Now the Dark Side rolls over the foolish Americans! We shall crush them like bugs!



SelveriMoon

Aireal City Of Kormanthor

This is Janna Evens reporting for KNBC from the World Class European café on the roof of The Selveri Tower, which is the center & tallest building of the seven building complex. Surrounding this breath-taking tower are the six other towers that complete the complex that is the center of The Cityscape Of SelveriMoon. Beyond this wondrous tower complex the city proper sprawls out two hundred fifty miles in all directions. In the skies above the city proper various types of aerial & spacecraft can be seen darting about.
Today though any number of squadrons of starfighters & mecha has been seen streaking off to many points of the globe to defend against the invading
ground forces. The first to leave this mourning was the legendary Rough Rider
squadron on it's to America to attack the Sith Filth that has landed there.
Today a spokesman of KEDF ( Kormanthoran Earth Defense Force ) said Sith forces has attacked ten major cities in America, not to mention Disney World.
We return you now to your regularly scheduled programming already in progress.


* Rough Rider Leader to SelveriMoon Control, we are entering American

Lord JWolf said "What the f@$# is he smoking?"

....Dude. I wasnt talking about you. -I- shot at the moon! Also, do us a favor and read EVERYTHING before you reply, instead of merely throwing up post after post after post after post.


Now, A-O...'fraid so, to some extent with your post....I know how indefensible my missiles are to you all....but at the same time, I cant defend against yours, save for in my ECM/EW capability, and lucky potshots with anti-fighter defenses. Basically, the goal of my missile attack was to level your work on the moon..and then back off, because your fleet is bigger than my two ships, and can keep feeding people to the Moon, whereas I'll run out of missiles before I finished you off. And the surprise would work only once, really. Yeah, I could send more missiles into the moon as well, but it'd also destabilize the moon if I shoot it up too much...and therefore screw with earth. Bad Idea, if you know what I mean. So..Yeah...On the one hand....the missile attack on the surface was a success--a known object like the moon is impossible to miss, save for severe guidance errors on the opening leg of the jump. A cheap shot on you? Yeah, unfortunately. But at the same time, I can't hurt your fleet if I cant see it..and your ECM is real, real good. So while a stationary target like the moon is easy to potshot...I cant decimate your fleet with those missile attacks unless I've got a forward observer playing fire control for me.

Y'kinda get what I'm sayin?

Oh, and to answer your question-For orbital defenses, I've got two Orbital Defense Platforms, 120 missiles on each, and then a five-shot Hard-Cannon (Nasty-nasty laser cannon) on each for last ditch defenses. My mobile space forces consist of a Cruiser and a Dreadnought, and then I've got a wing of System Patrol Craft and about a total of Ten wings of starfighters, give or take a dozen or two... (36-48/wing)

And thats IT for my space forces.

Once again, all things aside...had I written missiles that had to fly in at you normally, I'd have thought your post great, and been quite pleased with the results. Unfortunately, due to the way the missiles I used work, that doesnt happen...But look on the bright side! If we engage each other inside of visual range, or hell, inside of 300 kilometers...I cant use missiles on you. Youre too close.....
..hint hint *wink*

Sorry thought it was some of my missiles .... oops

The Surface of Earth

In the atmosphere, four sleek, jet black bullets skimmed across the surface of the planet, each carrying the deadly payload of marines, all armed, armoured, and well trained, ready to give their lives for their cause, Earth.

As they quickly neared the Wolf America base, the pilot called out to the marines over the intercom.

"Boys, it's time to kick ass. We're gonna make a few passes at the base, try and take out the cannons and scatter the infantry, then you'll be dropped off inside the compound so they can't turn the heavy weapons on you. Good luck."

The Halation Effect's weapons fire could be seen entering the atmosphere, each turning into what looked like a small meteor as they fell from the heavens towards the base.


On Earth at the base....

THe WASF Timber Wolf fire its main weapons. After it was done it take off it Mar with the four Bird of Preys. The WASF Timber Wolf had all the soldiers in one of its hanger.

High Commander Johnson: "5 sec. for the base to blow out. 5..4..3..2..1. Boom."

A big green mist shoot up for where the base was. The mist destroyed the base and if anybody got antwhere near the mist, they would die in a few seconds.

OOC: The main weapon and the bomb is Thalaron Radiation. I don't think any Earth radiation protection will help you live.

Beyond this wondrous tower complex the city proper sprawls out two hundred fifty miles in all directions. In the skies above the city proper various types of aerial & spacecraft can be seen darting about.
Today though any number of squadrons of starfighters & mecha has been seen streaking off to many points of the globe to defend against the invading
ground forces. The first to leave this mourning was the legendary Rough Rider
squadron on it's to America to attack the Sith Filth that has landed there.
Today a spokesman of KEDF ( Kormanthoran Earth Defense Force ) said Sith forces has attacked ten major cities in America, not to mention Disney World.
We return you now to your regularly scheduled programming already in progress.


* Rough Rider Leader to SelveriMoon Control, we are entering American
airspace. We are desending to one thousand feet, and dropping our leflets
to the American people explaining that we are here to help them fight the
invading sith army. *

* Roger Rough Rider Leader, you are now authorizied to use deadly force
against sith forces. *

"Yes, they're authorized to attack Sith forces." The President called his generals. "We do need all the help we can get."

Washington DC was in shambles. The buildings destroyed or damaged. The people huddled with whatever weapons they held, and the black-clad stormtroopers and Droidekas sought them out. Whenever they found them, they killed the resistors and rounded up the rest and set up prison camps for them. The prison camps are just another atrocity, as they soon become overcrowded and disease-ridden. Hundreds will die in the first few weeks of being penned up like, well, slaves, and those who survive can look forward to a lifetime of slavery.

"Sir? Hear this."



"Very well. The Imperial Star Destroyer Valkyre will now commence an orbitial bombardment on this puny nation. As soon as we send the reply, of course." Lord Serpentus said.



One minute after that, the ISD Valkyre opened fire on the major cities of Samtonia with it's turbolasers, raining green bolts of death upon the inhabitants, not caring who dies and who lives. Such is the depths to which the Dark Side can go!

* UKS Silencer to UKS Dark Raven, This is Adm. Danevai I want you to
destroy that ISD bombing Samtonia *

* UKS Dark Raven to UKS Silencer / Adm. Danevai, order recieved & understood. Dark Raven Out

( Seemly from nowhere the Super Star Destroyer that is the Dark Raven
decloaks within their firing range of the alien ISD, opening up on it with all
of her forward railguns, turbo laser implacements, warp powered phasers,
quantum photon torpedo launchers, and disruptor backs. )

( Surrounding the Dark Raven is two KISD's, 18 Defiant Class Starships,
and two hundred VF-11 Vindicator StarFighters providing cover escort
for the Raven. )

OOC:
Well, looks like the rest of earth doesnt need to do anything, you guys have the situation WELL in hand. I'll be at a cocktail party, call if I'm needed.

* UKS Silencer to UKS Dark Raven, This is Adm. Danevai I want you to
destroy that ISD bombing Samtonia *

* UKS Dark Raven to UKS Silencer / Adm. Danevai, order recieved & understood. Dark Raven Out

More firepower than the US could ever dream of smashed into the Valkyre just as she was about to commence another bombardment on another random city. The shields couldn't take the firepower and dropped, allowing the various weapons of the SSD to destroy the Star Destroyer, exploding like a second sun.

The people quickly cheered, but it was shortlived when the ESSD Palpatine's Revenge retaliated, opening fire with it's superlaser. Four smaller lasers charged up and melded together into one larger ray of energy. That green ray of energy then lanced out for the Dark Raven, while the regular emplacements took on the other ships.

OOC: You forget one thing: they're slow compared to what ISD point defenses (laser cannons, light turbolasers and fighters) usually defend against. Anyway, I'll take damage. Oh yeah, and whenever a orbitial bombardment by turbolasers occur, there's large lakes of lava due to they melting the crust.
And who the hell do you think you are, nuking the US?! Grr...time to retaliate.

OOC-
And you forgot one thing. The amount launched. You've got the launch signatures of OVER 10,000 NUCLEAR ICBMS headed at that ship. I'm sorry. There aren't enough point defense wepons on an ISD to take down 10,000 in a matter of minutes.

Here are your point defenses, as Fighters aren't powerful or fast enough to be considered point defence. From http://www.theforce.net/swtc/isd.html#weaponry

Common cannons:
Numerous other cannons are distributed over the brim, dorsal and ventral planar surfaces of the ship. Against the full length of the ship, these guns are almost invisibly small. Assuming that the normal turbolaser cannons are at least several metres long, like the main anti-fighter defenses of the Death Stars, they are probably associated with the numerous tiny lumps which dot the planar faces of both dorsal and ventral surfaces of the ship. During the pursuit of Tantive IV, fire rates of one shot per two seconds were seen.

At least one of the guns fired from the stern region, implying that a normally aft-oriented weapon is free to take a dramatically different facing. It seems that these guns are free to fire in almost any direction with a clear line of sight.

Fire patterns and sizing considerations indicate that these guns are isolated, rather than operating on group clusters or batteries. They may be very similar to the lighter guns of the Death Star, artillery-like pieces mounted indoors on a pivot with the barrel itself pointing out into space through a window sealed with an atmospheric containment shield.

Because it would be minutes. You'd have to be within the atmosphere or you'd be boiling the entire world's atmosphere with the energy released by your lasers.

And what about those massive metal spikes that would be impacting at....oh, I don't know, about the same time?

Friend Darksider, that ship is toast. Fighters aren't near accurate enough to stop ICBMs. You don't have enough point defenses. And there are at least 1,000 nuclear warheads headed at that ship, not to mention over 10,000 missile signatures which couldn't be verified to be false without an eyes-up view.

I'm not trying to be a prick, but face it. You don't have that ISD anymore. Samtonia isn't just going to let a ship bombard it to pieces without a fight. Numbers will always beat technology! (Wait....ignore Russia: WW1, China:Korean War...and.....that's it. See? Numbers win!)

If you could drop me a line at reverendsamthebibleman@yahoo.com we could talk a bit more about what's going to happen with your and my troops.

++Harbringer to UKS Silencer. Our men are already approaching Finland, theres nothing you can do to stop them. Their mission is to create a foothold. If you fire upon my ships there will be war between our nations. We do not want that. This policeing plan will go to pot if two nations start fighting.++

* UKS Silencer to Harbringer, Adm.Danevai speaking we do not recognize your authority to police any Earth nation here. We do not use nukes for our protection, we have already made an offer the defense countries to give them replacement weapons so nukes won't be needed.
You have been warned repeatively to standown your attacks and have
made the decision to ignore our warnings. For that reason, Kormanthor
High Council has already named all invading forces as our enemies, so you see
we are at war already. Make peace with whatever deity that you hold dear
Harbringer because death is at your door! Danevai Out! *


* UKS Silencer to SelveriMoon *

* SelveriMoon to UKS Silencer what can we do for you? *

* This Admiral Danevai, you are to send a squadron of starfighter's to
Finland to defend that country against Harbring Forces that are now
on the ground in that country. You are authorizied to use deadly force
against all invading forces. *

* Aye, Aye Madam *

* Danevai Out *

( Minutes later a squadron of starfighters streak into the skies from SelveriMoon. To any one in the immediate area, the starfighters seem to
appear from thin air as they emerge from SelveriMoon's cloaking effect. )

As the WASF Timber Wolf and the four Bird of Preys got to Mars with the rest of the WASF ships and 386SF ships.

Aboard the WASF Alpha Wolf.....

Lord JWolf : "Open a channel to all WASF ships & 386SF ships."
Comms-link man: "Done, my lord."
Lord JWolf : "All ship have your weapons charged and head to the ESSD Palpatine's Revenge."
All captains of WASF & 386SF ships: "Will do, my lord."

All WASF ship & 386SF ship charge weapons and start heading for the ESSD Palpatine's Revenge.

OOC: Core, where is the SSD Fireblot at?
Plus that is 76 ships attacking the ESSD Palpatine's Revenge.

OOC: The damage you've done is enough. the SSD is the one who really destroyed the ISD, but the missiles caused damage, too, even though I could easily track 'em and shoot 'em down the minute they come up. Just enough to hurt.

On board the Dominion
Medium Orbit over Luna

Gryzlov stepped out of his shuttle, his boots making a clicking sound with the hangar floor. Badgiruel was already waiting, her arms folded across her chest, obviously displeased at her commander's disappearance during the surprise attack.

"Commodore. What's the status of our fleet. Any damage done?"

Badgiruel saluted, before replying, in a more sarcastic tone than she actually planned, "All ships reporting a-okay. The Ziegler lost some power, but that damage has been repaired. As for Luna, we lost it, Sir. The missiles caught us by surprise, and possessed advanced technology. We could not do anything..."

"Combat losses? Can we get a track on our attackers?"

"About 450 dead, and 200 Mistrals destroyed. And I'm sorry Sir. We couldn't get a track on those launchers."

Gryzlov clenched his fists. "To have them die so early. Those Naturals need to be taught a lesson. We must continue with our plans, and get some resources while we're at it," he thought to himself.

Just then, the Comms Operator's face appeared on the vidscreen in the hangar. She saluted, before announcing, "Admiral, Commodore. Message from the Seraphim"

"The Seraphim?" They both cried out in unison. She was the last Archangel-class Mobile Suit Carrier available, and was supposed to be on defence duties. What was it doing here? Furthermore, it was the base for the elite Dion MS Team. Despite the fact that their Gundams were slightly less technologically advanced than his own two units...

"Yes, sirs, THE Sera-"

Her reply was cut short by another transmission. This time, the image of a young man, with closely cropped, brown hair and wearing a balck-collared, red uniform materialised onto the screen.

"Brevet-Admiral Anatoliy Gryzlov. How nice to be meeting with you again," said the young man, a hint of a smugness in his voice.

"So it is, CAPTAIN Dion," He mustered as much sarcasm as he could.

"I bring orders from Chairman Kimura," Everyone saluted upon hearing that. "He is extremely displeased with the slow progress of this operation and the recent losses of men and materiel on Luna. He has sent the Seraphim, and our team, together with the new Penetrating N-Jammers to your fleet, hopefully to speed up the completion of Operation Uroboros. Our ETA is 30 minutes. You know what would happen if you failed, no?"

The vidscreen then flickered into blackness.

Cursing, Gryzlov stormed off to the bridge.

"Ensign Haww! Send this message fleet-wide. We have no choice but to abandon plans to build a staging area from Luna in order to speed up Operation Uroboros. All ships are to begin to head towards Earth after the Serpahim forms on us in three-zero minutes. Ready Mobile Suits for Launch, and maintain constant N-Jammer and sensor operations. Inform the fleet if anything unusal is discovered."

"Oh, and notify our allies of our plans..." (OOC note: That would include JINGO, Coreworlds, whoever was at the meeting. Just to let all know. :) )

"Right away!"

Gryzlov floated over to the main vidscreen, and watched the battles rage around the blue sphere in front of him. Large ships were lumbering about and smallers ones darted to and fro towards their destinations. Then, moving over to the sensor operator, he stared down at the THERMO-PERCEIVE scope.

"Petty Officer Argyle. Anything out of the ordinary?"

"Not yet, Sir. Although I do think that the Naturals have established space-defence stations and the like."

Gryzlov nodded. "Keep us informed. We shall try to sneak past them, if any. Lieutenants Koenig and Neumann, set a course for Earth. We shall land on the edge of Gobi Desert, China."

Then, to Badgiruel, he ordered, "Commodore Badgiruel, inform all ships to arm their weapons. Get the Archangel and the Seraphim to arm their Lohengrins. Same goes for us. Keep the Gottfrieds and the Valiants on ready-status, and have the Freedom and Justice go on Ready-5 status."

"Roger. Will do."

OOC: I am gonna "sneak" towards Earth, if anyone wants to detect me or anything do go ahead. :P Although my forces are quite small, don't want them to get decimated before I make it planetside. :P

Losses:
450 dead
200 MAW-01 Mistrals destroyed

As the WASF Timber Wolf and the four Bird of Preys got to Mars with the rest of the WASF ships and 386SF ships.

OOC: Core, where is the SSD Fireblot at?
Plus that is 76 ships attacking the ESSD Palpatine's Revenge.

On cue, a large fleet of Imperial Star Destroyers and the SSD Firebolt reverted to realspace near Mars. The Cavalry has arrived!

The Emperor ordered all ships to open fire upon the invaders and X-wings poured out by the dozens to combat the enemy TIEs.

Most of the Sith ISDs removed themselves from Earth orbit to engage the fleet, each ship trading massive broadsides at each other. The Light and the Darkness is engaged in combat!

The Palpatine's Revenge turned away after the superlaser fired and search the skies for more firing solution. After a few minutes, the ESSD shot another blast at one of Wolf's ships, though not the Alpha Wolf.

The Sith Lord decided that he will leave the space battle to the Admiral and took a shuttle down to the Earth, with his elite guards and best Dark Jedi. If he cannot take on the fleet, he will surely try to kill the American President!

OOC: A lightsaber duel is about to begin!

OOC: Sorry. I'm not gonna' go through 22 pages to find Finland. That would be boring.

IC: "Take us down to Finland. I think they would enjoy a visit."
"Yes m'lord."
The ships in orbit over Earth launched many dropships. Within these dropships were: 100,000 Thousand Sons and 100 Dreadnoughts.
OOC2: If you want info, ask.


OCC; 100,000 what? Are sons some type of starship?

OCC; Have to go to work now. I will answer the rest of 22, 23 & 24 after midnight eastern standard time.

OOC:
No beatin' up your stuff, gotchya AO. Like I said, your ECM is hellishly effective right now, so I wont be seeing you coming....And I'm sure it'll give you a chance to catch me a bit off guard....eheheh.

Post from the Order forthcoming soon!

Abord the WASF Alpha Wolf....

Lord JWolf watched the shoot destroy one of the WASF ships

Lord JWolf: "All ships fire at that ship."

All WASF ships and 386Sf open fire at the Palpatine's Revenge.

Lord JWolf: "Black Wolf, get Wolf One ready and have the your team ready."
Black Wolf: "Done, my lord." then run off to the hager where the Wolf One is.
Lord JWolf: "Open a channel to Captian Ivan."
Comms-link man: "Done, my lord."
Lord JWolf: "Captian, have 25 Deathglider follow the Wolf One to Earth."
Captian Ivan: "Will do, my lord."

After a few mins.....

Lord JWolf got on the Wolf One and it took out of the WASF Alpha Wolf. Then 25 Deathglider appear out of nowhere to watch over the Wolf One.

The Wolf One landed in the White House lawn.

Black Wolf and his team got off first then Lord JWolf got at last. Then they run up to the SS bodygaurds outside of the White House.

Lord JWolf did a Jedi mind trick on the guard to get them in the White House to guard the President. After that, Black Wolf had his team of 20 elites bodygaurds watch for the Sith Lord.

Lord JWolf has his lighsaber ready.

The White House was completely empty, since everyone left already. What's left are a few youngsters and SS guards holed up to try and protect themselves from the Sith army.

Meanwhile, some droidekas and a squad of darktroopers saw the ship on the White House lawn and decided that someone is in there. They break down the fences with an AT-ST and begin to fire at the building, starting fires and making the kids scream.

The Palpatine's Revenge returned fire, massive turbolaser bolts lancing out for the Wolf America fleet. A couple of defending ISDs-escorts also returned fire at the Wolf fleet, their smaller turbolasers and ion cannons drilling into the enemy ranks, while several squadrons of TIEs, Skiprays and Lamda Shuttles were thrown in the mix.

The Wolf One took off to hide in the clouds

The Royal Bodyguards Elites duck behind tree in the lawn and start fire at droidekas. Then the 25 Deathglider appear for the clouds and open fire on the AT-STs.

Lord JWolf and Black Wolf have sneaked behind the droidekas and darktroopers. Lord JWolf's lightsaber lights up and attack the darktrooper for behind. Black Wolf put his 50. cal machine gun and start firing at darktrooper.

The Palpatine's Revenge returned fire, massive turbolaser bolts lancing out for the Wolf America fleet. A couple of defending ISDs-escorts also returned fire at the Wolf fleet, their smaller turbolasers and ion cannons drilling into the enemy ranks, while several squadrons of TIEs, Skiprays and Lamda Shuttles were thrown in the mix.

Ten WASF ships have been destroyed.

Abord the WASF Timber Wolf....

High Commander Johnson: "Open a channel to the 386SF ship like this one."
Comms-link man: "Done, sir."
High Commander Johnson: "Fire your main weapan at the bridge of Palpatine's Revenge, now."
The 386SF captains: "Yes, sir."

Then all the ships fire a green colored beam at the bridge of Palpatine's Revenge.

Then all ten of the 386SF Bird of Preys take off as fast as they can heading at the Palpatine's Revenge to ram it. Plus 25 Deathgliders and 50 F-203s fly at the Palpatine's Revenge and open fire on the TIEs.

The shields were battered down, and the droidekas exploded one by one, especially as the Secret Service men and the youths threw grenades at them.

The AT-STs fired back at the Deathgliders, but it's a mostly futile situation as they were taken out one by one.

The darktroopers were chopped in half by the Jedi and others started firing at him, only to be mowed down by machine gun fire and pistol shots to the eyeballs.

The squad was soon wiped out, but a big fire sprang up, burning the White House one room at a time.

Lord JWolf did a force wave on the last darktroopers and then ran off.

Lord JWolf and Black Wolf took off it to the night and hide. Lord JWolf was bleeding for his left arm and Black Wolf's armor have some hole in it with blood come from the holes.

Lord JWolf: "Black Wolf, get the Wolf One here now."
Black Wolf: "Wolf One, land here now."
Wolf One pilots: "Will do."

Lord JWolf and Black Wolf get on and fly into space. The Wolf One cloaks.

The White House was completely burnt as no fire trucks came to help, and the freedom fighters began to search for another place to hid and/or fight back.

The Wolf One is in space and it is cloaked. The doctors, on the Wolf One, work on Lord JWolf and Black Wolf.

Lord JWolf: "Hail the SSD Firebolt."
Comms-link man: "Done, my lord."
Lord JWolf: "Emperor, my fleet is being destroyed. I have lost my Royal Bogyguard Elites are died because of a trap by the Sith at the White House. I'm hurt but the doctors are work on my left arm. Only me and Black Wolf got out of the alive."


OOC: Core, can you read #358?

"...And here are pictures of the current situation."

Overhead, pictures began to trail across the screen.

Civilians, fleeing their homes as massive metal beheamoths crushed both vehicle and passer-by undefoot, lasers exploding across the skyline, as New York burned, an offering to the Gods of War.

The White House, engulfed in flames, as citizens could do little more than watch it burn, while monuments fell in the background.

Scenes of total devestation in Florida, with Orlando turned into a blazing pyre and Disneyland a slag-heap, with the soot encrusted dome of Epcot half poking out from under a pile of nightmare-twisted metal, glassed-over parking lots and twisted heaps of soot all that remained of an invading army.

Los Angeles, wiped from existance, a savage blight now upon te Earth in its place.

Insanely traced radar diagrams, as enemy fighters and massive ships fought over the Earth in the atmosphere and space beyond.

Finally, the awe inspiring view of an exploding Star Destroyer, its reaxctors overloading and igniting in one last burst of fury.

"As you can see gentlemen, our strikes achieved some measure of success. Though a majority were shot down, enough missiles impacted to both total these two invading armies and take down that ISD."

"Could it perhaps have been those allied ships that took down the ISD?"

"We feel at this time that our missiles accomplished enough destruction to cause the ISD to go critical. After all, all of my analysts assure me those were more than enough missiles to vaporize it."

"And the Americans? What do they think of our missile strike?"

"Well, they've sent their ICBMs to DEFCON-1. We eel they may think we were attacking them. A message got through, blaming us in part and accusing us of attempting to strike them while they are down."

"Get a reply back. Get them to understand. dissention among allies is the last thing we want at this moment."

Encryption Logarhthyms AZ-14.b.6.0 observed

WE beg you to reconsider your position. It appeared as though you might fall at a moment's notice. We attempted to target enemy concentrations where few of your people still were. Disneyworld was captured and garrisoned by enemy troops, Orlando was nearly taken. LA was captured, the outskirts of Chicago giving way. New Jersey was no longer yours, as was St. Louis.

We launched to give you breathing room. a few thousand American citizens lives' appeared to be a small loss to keep your country, your continent, and the world under control of humanity for a while longer.

We beg you reconsider a missile strike on us. We were cornered, with no options left. Beleive us when we say we do not wish tahat upon you in any way, but this was the quickest and least costly method to wipe out the invaders.

Remember, united we stand, divided we fall! May we hold out a while longer and amy our peace be long lasting!

Samtonian Council of Thirteen

Ten WASF ships have been destroyed.

Abord the WASF Timber Wolf....

High Commander Johnson: "Open a channel to the 386SF ship like this one."
Comms-link man: "Done, sir."
High Commander Johnson: "Fire your main weapan at the bridge of Palpatine's Revenge, now."
The 386SF captains: "Yes, sir."

Then all the ships fire a green colored beam at the bridge of Palpatine's Revenge.

Then all ten of the 386SF Bird of Preys take off as fast as they can heading at the Palpatine's Revenge to ram it. Plus 25 Deathgliders and 50 F-203s fly at the Palpatine's Revenge and open fire on the TIEs.

The slaves were 'prodded' to use the new Force shields, and those shields went up as the bridge went under fire. The psychic slaves strained under the onslaught, and a few died to massive strokes. But the shields held, at 75% and the bridge remained protected.

"I see." The Emperor replied to JWolf. "It appears that the Sith's ship is stronger than we thought. I can sense the Dark Side being used as a shield of some sort. We'll have to attack, all together, in order to defeat it."

Then he turned to an officer, echoing Admrial Ackbar of decades past. "Concentrate all firepower on the enemy Super Star Destroyer! And will someone take out that superlaser?!"

"Aye aye!" The SSD, careful not to get in the path of the superlaser, fired a heavy forward broadside into the SSD, thousands upon thousands of turbolasers, ion cannons, missiles and torpedoes smashing into the Sith craft. Many slaves were killed, their souls happy to be freed. And the Sith craft replied in kind, dishing out just as much to the cavalry.

CNN, too, sent scenes of devastation around the world using the cable.

Miami bombed by TIE bombers, many fires breaking out and overwhelming the firefighters. Atlanta under siege by the Sith, AT-ATs and darktroopers trying to win the city. Detroit bombarded by another ISD, molten lava spilling everywhere, and skyscrapers falling and crushing those who survived the lava. San Francisco under heavy street-to-street fighting as grenades and tanks fought in the deadly zone. Crops were ablaze and towns were concentration camps. All in all, the United States is devastated from sea to shining sea. The Statue of Liberty lies on her side, as if weeping for the millions of lives lost.

---

"A reply from the Council, sir."

The President growled. "Send back a message."

Congratulations. In your attempt to stave off the invaders, you have killed tens of thousands of our American citizens, maybe millions. We did not give you permission to do so, and we view this as more costly than you think. I'm sorry, but the people demands that you be punished for this. Good bye.

"Time to release the birds." The President sighed and rattled off some numbers on his nuclear card. His Secretary of State rattled off his number, and the word was sent to the Ohio-class nuclear subs waiting for launch.

USS Nebraska, somewhere in the Pacific

"Sir, we're given the orders." A pale communications officer said.

"Very well. All crew, go to battle stations Missile! Repeat, all crew to battle stations Missile!" The captain ordered. Then he had the missile crew punch in the coordinates given by the order, and soon, 24 ICBMs lifted off and headed toward Samtonia. The USS Wyoming was also given the order to launch, and another 24 ICBMs streaked for the nation.

The Sith was notified, and smiled, telling his crew not to attack the missiles. More death and destruction to drink from...

OOC: NOOO I wrote up a big long post, and it got erased when I tried to post. This will sum it up, but it wont be as good :(

IC:

Captain Amelio's Sunken Class Defender and two Pryamid Class Cruisers, The High Road and The Low Road, moved into orbit over Brazil. The two Pyramid Class Cruisers direct all one thousand of their torpedo tubes downward. They then released their barrage of plasma torpedos. One ships target was Rio, and the other's was the capital, Brasilia.

OOC:Thats about the first 4 paragraphs condensed

The plasma torpedoes fell, unilluminated, into the darkness of space. Seconds later, the seemingly unending darkness was broken by the blinding flash of light created by the plasma torpedoes. They were changing state, from mostly solid, to super-heated plasma.

The people in those two cities, spent the last minute of their life staring up in amazement, wondering what was happening. In fact, that was probably the last thing they would ever see or think.

The torpedoes hit the ground, instantly melting anything they came into contact with. Upon hitting the ground, the plama bounced outwards, flowing through out the city.

In 15 minutes, the plasma began to cool, forming a dull yellow rock, on which nothing would ever grow. All that was left of the cities, was jagged pieces of metal, which were on top of the highest buildings in the cities. Everyone was surely dead.

Captain Amelio knew what he had done was a bit extreme and a tad unnessecary, but an example had to be made. If this conflict was to end with out mass casualties, then the defender's spirits had to be broken. He decided to sit back, and let the damaged he had just reeked set in.

He then pressed in the comm button once again, to send a message all over earth, "I am Captain Amelio, I suggest that all of you earthling just surrender, for you know not what you are getting yourselves into here. Look at Rio and Brasilia if your question our power."

The Captain then sat back in his chair, and waited to see what would happen next. He thought to himself about what would become of the people in the next cities he would attack. He knew he did not have enough torpedoes to take out all the cities in Brazil, let alone the world. The again, the earthlings didn't know that.

The slaves were 'prodded' to use the new Force shields, and those shields went up as the bridge went under fire. The psychic slaves strained under the onslaught, and a few died to massive strokes. But the shields held, at 75% and the bridge remained protected.

"I see." The Emperor replied to JWolf. "It appears that the Sith's ship is stronger than we thought. I can sense the Dark Side being used as a shield of some sort. We'll have to attack, all together, in order to defeat it."

Then he turned to an officer, echoing Admrial Ackbar of decades past. "Concentrate all firepower on the enemy Super Star Destroyer! And will someone take out that superlaser?!"

"Aye aye!" The SSD, careful not to get in the path of the superlaser, fired a heavy forward broadside into the SSD, thousands upon thousands of turbolasers, ion cannons, missiles and torpedoes smashing into the Sith craft. Many slaves were killed, their souls happy to be freed. And the Sith craft replied in kind, dishing out just as much to the cavalry.

CNN, too, sent scenes of devastation around the world using the cable.

Miami bombed by TIE bombers, many fires breaking out and overwhelming the firefighters. Atlanta under siege by the Sith, AT-ATs and darktroopers trying to win the city. Detroit bombarded by another ISD, molten lava spilling everywhere, and skyscrapers falling and crushing those who survived the lava. San Francisco under heavy street-to-street fighting as grenades and tanks fought in the deadly zone. Crops were ablaze and towns were concentration camps. All in all, the United States is devastated from sea to shining sea. The Statue of Liberty lies on her side, as if weeping for the millions of lives lost.

All WASF ships and 386SF ship fire at the SSD but the ten Bird of Preys pull up before hit the SSD. The Bird of Preys lay mines around the top of the SSD, one mine ever 25 feet.

The WASF Timber Wolf & 386SF Scimitar & 386SF Bob II, are all Scimitar Class Heavy Battleships, start charge there main weapons agian. In 30 mins they will fire it at the bridge.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Abord the Wolf One....

Lord JWolf's left arm has exoskeleton armor-like thing to fix his broken arm. The exoskeleton armor-like makes where he can use it.

Black Wolf had to change to his other armor.

Lord JWolf said "What the f@$# is he smoking?"

Don't smoke, or drink... that was a famous line of Montgomery Scott
the Engineer on the original Enterprise. It means that I don't believe
what he was telling me.

More firepower than the US could ever dream of smashed into the Valkyre just as she was about to commence another bombardment on another random city. The shields couldn't take the firepower and dropped, allowing the various weapons of the SSD to destroy the Star Destroyer, exploding like a second sun.

The people quickly cheered, but it was shortlived when the ESSD Palpatine's Revenge retaliated, opening fire with it's superlaser. Four smaller lasers charged up and melded together into one larger ray of energy. That green ray of energy then lanced out for the Dark Raven, while the regular emplacements took on the other ships.

EKHODAS

Cloaked

Ekhodas to SelveriMoon

OCC: Well it's now 3:20am eastern standard here and I'm to tired to
retal tonight. I will pick this up where I left off tomorrow.

OOC: Sorry. I'm not gonna' go through 22 pages to find Finland. That would be boring.

IC: "Take us down to Finland. I think they would enjoy a visit."
"Yes m'lord."
The ships in orbit over Earth launched many dropships. Within these dropships were: 100,000 Thousand Sons and 100 Dreadnoughts.
OOC2: If you want info, ask.

Nireva - Parliament.

"Sir!"
"What now?"
"We.. We got multiple.. Ships coming this way.."
"Do you mean ships, or.. UFOs?"
"UFOs."
"Oh shit..
Um.. How many?"
"At least 100.. Bigger things."
"Shit..!"
"Yes.."
"Um. Let Gripens have some small nuclear missiles. And launch 500 Gripens to each.. Ship. And send 50 Gripens to cover mainforces. I guess there are somekinda TIE-fighters.. Like in Star Wars?"
"Yes, sir."

Nireva - HQ.

"What!? Presidents wants us to do THAT?"
"Yes!"
"Then.. We'll do.
Send our best pilots, and shoot those.. Things down."
"Yes, sir."
"And.. Fire couple of ICBMs to them too, if Gripens Nuclear Missiles aren't enough."
"Yes, sir."

Total of 55,000 Gripens leaved their bases.

Ooc.
I have no idea what Sons are, but I think they're some kind of TIE-fighters, and in atmosphere, Gripens could be even more accurate than them real bad..].
And I do know 55,000 planes are much for nation sized like Finland, but my pop. is over 1 billion [Finland's 5 MILLION], so I need to use more forces than Finland could.. :p

[OOC]: Thousand Sons are a type of infantry from a board game.

[OOC]: Thousand Sons are a type of infantry from a board game.


Oh Ok I learned something new today:)

OOC: So sorry. I never said what Sons were. Well. There powere armoured geneticly advanced men, standing about 6-7 feet high. They are armed with bolters. Bolters fire self-proppeled armour-piercing mass-reactive explosive missiles called bolts. These dentonate a split second after penetrating a target, blasting it apart from within. Bolters are normally set for rapid fire, each pull of the trigger firing a burst of three or four bolts in quick succsesion.
Power Armour is a completly enclosing suit of armour as worn by Thousand Sons and warriors of Orange State. The under layer is a thin (about 3mm) of kevlar impregnated titanium. this stops most piuercing attacks and stops spaling, which is how most armour piercing weapons work. Above this is 5mm of hardened ceramite which resist heat attacks. Finnally the top layer is hard alloy of tungsten and steel which is a full 24mm thick. The effective protection is 500mm on all areas except joint which are only 200mm and eyeslits which provide only 80mm. This would be heavy and combersome but for electriclly motivated fibre bundles implanted in the power armour that replecates the movements of the wearer and supplememts his strength. Power armour is fully sealed to provide protection agaisnt gas weapons and harsh atmosphre. It also commenly includes numerus auxilliary systems such as communications, auto-senses etc. The suit has a small fusion generator built into the back and motors under the plating but above the kevlar titanium. There are several interfaces between this and the bodyof the warrior, [Need stats for interface!] It links the bionics to the brain and can read nerves and move the amrour in time with the body rendering it almost weightless for the wearer despite being close to 100KG.
The Dreadnought stands 10 feet tall and is a sarcophagse (sp? ). It contains the still living body of a fallen soilder, they are kept alive by the life support machines inside the Dreadnought. The dreadnoughts armour is the same as the titan, but thiner: 2 inchs thick. It's weapons are: Plasma Cannon and Missile launcher. A varinet's weapons are Las cannon and chainfist. The dreadnought is capable of destroying infantry aswell as tanks. They are best suited to shock troops.
Happy?

IC: "Were arriving!"
"Good...." He was cut off as a missile struck the ship, killing the men inside.
Lucifer, the commander of this assult force was on another dropship.
"Avasive actions!" The other dropships started weaving in and out of each other, only a few more got hit. The others hit hard ground with a jolt.
"Move out! Kill everything!" The Tousand Sons clambered from their ships and fired at the nerest people. There was about 90,000 Sons left. The Dreadnoughts were next off, rampaging into the defending men. The bolter shells from Sons bouncing off their armour.
"We nee to secure this area before nightfall!" Lucifer shouted over the noise of the battle.....

CNN Breaking news!
Giant Ship Explodes! Debris and Radiation feared!

Somewhere in the Nevada desert:
"Good morning. Today, we have a visual of some kind of giant ship exploding somewhere above the Earth. It is suspected that another ship has destroyed it with a so-called, 'super-laser' of some sort. We now have visuals from telescopes around the world of this latest event."

*Scene of the Palapatine's Revenge blowing up the Dark Raven is shown from the perspective of the planet. For a short time, the explosion outshone the sun and showered the planet with debris. A piece fell on a house in Nebraska, killing the inhabitants inside, and the nearby neighborhood had to flee the subsequent fire.*

"It is unknown which of the ships are friend or foe, but sources believe that the 'Star Wars'-style Executor ship was an ally, as gathered by some radio communications reported by our sources.

In other news, a strange series of blue objects has appeared in the Washington State area, and Army troops have been sent to investigate, an Army source has revealed to us."

A general then appears onscreen. "We are in the process of investigating this anomaly, and whether it is good or bad will soon be revealed."

"Furthermore, the enemy army has begun to stall, as the Armed Forces has finally bogged them down in heavy street to street fighting in several cities, though air-to-air battles continue over the skies of America and around the world."

"This is CNN, reporting to you on the status of the 'War of the Worlds'."

The Army choppers have neared the area of the anomalies, and began a search for the survivors and reported on the strange blue wormholes appearing.

The Sith Lord smiled in his cloaked shuttle. "Now all I need to do, is find their President and kill him. Surely the death of their leader will make America fall into our hands."
He continues to fly around the states, searching for possible locations of the President. He soon nears Area 51...

The Emperor felt something about to happen. "I'm taking my fighter down to the surface. The Jedi will come with me."

"What is it, sir?"

"The Sith." The Emperor coldly said. "He must be defeated. Contact Lord Jwolf and tell him to follow me."

"As you wish, sir."

----

The Palpatine's Revenge continued to fire it's superlaser at whatever big ship it chooses to attack, from Kormanthor commandships to Wolf's ships to the Imperial Navy. In return, it's Force Shields continue to weaken slowly as more and more slaves die under the strain, feeding the Dark Side. But the shields are still going strong, even though it's about 50% now. Sooner or later, it will fall, and the Admiral knew that better than anyone, so he continued to keep the superlaser and regular turbolasers firing at everyone to weaken the fleets.

"Ready the gravity bombs and missiles!" He ordered, now beginning to lose sanity.

"Sire, we are close to Earth. A city or even a country may be swallowed!" An ensign said.

He allowed a darkside guard to shoot Force Lightning at the young man, killing him.

"I said, ready the gravity bombs and missiles!" He screamed. The rest of the crew, fearful for their lives, gave the orders. Admiral Tarkin smiled sickly. Now the so-called 'defenders' will die and die horribly...

OOC: Next post, the gravity bombs are unleashed again! Stay tuned!

Ooc. Sry for posting it here.
But still; Basicly: Bolters are burst-LAWs?
And your.. Sons. I'll just call them as a mutants. :rolleyes:
But now I'm going to read biologytest.
Btw - You haven't noticed my Gripens yet?
My storefront shows the info what you'd need.
I've edited them a bit, so they can carry nuclear weapons [Thought the original version couldn't.]

Aboard the Wolf One...

Lord JWolf answered " Got your message, Emperor. We are on your six, now."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The WASF Timber Wolf & 386SF Scimitar & 386SF Bob II fire the main weapon at the bottom of the engine of the Palpatine's Revenge. The other ships fire at the bridge of the Palpatine's Revenge.

Under the mountain that never slept, the launch signatures from two submarines were impossible to miss.

”Vampire-One. We have Vampire-One” droned one of the men at the monitors. He was echoed by more and more voices, all calling out on intercoms their data.

”Twenty-four inbound, ICBMs, launched from submersibles, probably of Oscar class from their wakes. Reported abortion of two vehicles over African mainland. Radar signatures show 23, that is two-three missiles inbound. ETA on strikes is 37 minutes. Possible strike locations include…”

The scene inside the massive control room was one of utter chaos, with technicians running about and transmission going out.

”We’ve got an eyes-up on class. These are Class-Deltas people. Repeat, these missiles are Class-Deltas. Estimated megaton range in the hundreds.”

”This is Naval liason. We’ve got Aegis-2 ships nearing landfall points. Combat effectiveness of ships rated at .05 missiles per individual launch.”

”We’ve got the army on stand-by. Reporting all missile defense stations going to full combat readiness. Repeat, all defense stations going to full combat readiness.”

”ETA on strikes now at 35 minutes and closing.”
++++++++++++++++++++
”…And we must retaliate in full!”screamed the Defense Minister.

”However, this is just their reply to our launch…”

”Which they couldn’t simply suck up to and get angry at us after the god-damned invasion! We’ve got to strike them back for any man, woman, or child that….”

Shaking his head, the Leader of the Council stood.
”We’re all in this together. Our missile defenses are fully adequate. Let us talk if a major city is vaporized. However, this changes our dealings with the Americans. No more help is to be given. Let them taste fear as their cities begin to fall. When we are begged for help, they will see what it is like to be betrayed.

Revenge, fellow council members, is always a dish best served cold.”
++++++++++++++++++++++
Over Samtonia, satellites not usually activated turned on. Samtonia’s experimental laser defense system was about to begin its reply.

As the ICBMs flew over North Africa, the massive system of satellites began to track individual targets. Drawing on the power from years of unblocked solar energy, each satellite slowly powered up and began to fire a near microscopic beam of chemically-aided light at the satellites.

Small holes began to burn in the warhead sections of some, while gas slowly began to heat up in others.

Suddenly, every satellite let loose with one beam more intense then the previous. Of course, this burst of energy overloaded some of the satellite and a number exploded, adding their destroyed shrads of metal to the haze of pollution surrounding Earth.

The actual destruction of ICBMs only worked in about ¼ of the cases. But it was enough. Six of the ICBMs burst into flame and exploded, showering their flaming pieces over the desert sands of Tunisia.

With that, the lasers powered down. It would be up to the Samtonian Strategic Defense corps now.

Undisclosed location
United States of America
Earth, Sol System
Fireteam Bravo, B Co.
1st STARMORED Battalion


The team had looped around for hours and it finally seemed as if they had struck the jackpot. They were only a few hundred meters from the epicenter of the energy spike and a growing concentration of humanoid life-signs. They all shared the oddities the first one seen had featured, which meant they weren't your average human.

Definately invaders.

Private Coreys held his hand in 'freeze' again, and then dropped his open palm, signaling the team to take a knee. He crept ahead slightly further before initiating his High-Com. "Um, Sarge, theres another set of energy signatures ahead, definately different, but they're not like the last set. The others had this..strangeness about them that the Sniffer couldn't quite guess at. These, though, they're weapons or at least weapon packs. Sniffer's not pickin up anything else nearby, not even those wierd sigs. Unless someone's found a way to mask even their scent, there's nothin right over here."

"Roger that, Coreys. Pull back to our position and hold. We're gonna have a quick pow-wow."

"Be there in a sec, Sarge"

A minute later, and Private Coreys was kneeling beside Sergeant Mills. "Alright, I just got a burst transmission," the squad leader was saying over ProxyCom. The ProxyCom worked similar to High-Com and was just as untraceable, but beyond ten feet the signal became indistinguishable from background noise..and impossible to intercept. It was one of the few safe options they had for communication beyond the High-Com.

"...BAST has informed me they've managed to pick into the American's transmissions in this area with the Hawk's passive commsuite," Mills continued. "Approximately one hour ago, there was a transmission from this area requesting assistance. The Americans have responded and are sending one of their UH-60s with a Combat-Troop load over to investigate and rescue some stranded hikers. The coordinates they're going for are right where we found that first patch of energy that we avoided."

"Bastards," Ellis growled. "They're suckering them in for a trap."

Specialist Bowie spoke up, shifting on one knee to get a better look at Sergeant Mills. "Sarge, we can't let them sucker those guys in like this, can we?"

"We're going to have to," Mills replied, his voice sounding uncomfortable. "We warn them off, and these guys'll pack up and head home or head out somewhere else. We have to hit them when they hit the Americans, and we can't let them know where we're from, else we'll have one of these things opening up in our backyard."

Horn snorted through the mic pickup. "They try that back home, and they'll have ARMOR all over them in minutes."

"True," Mills agreed with the sniper. "But BAST isnt so much worried about them trying to set up a little base in The Order as much as they're worried about that ship thats hovering overhead. They said they're taking care of this one, but they dont know if there are any more out there. In the meantime, our orders have changed. We're no longer a Recon-in-Force. As soon as the Americans hit this thing, we're to follow them up in support and burn the whole damn place to the ground."

Mills turned his head to glance at Sergeant Ellis. "Tell me, Sergeant, you have any toys in your bag of tricks to deal with that little weapons dump they left ahead?"

Ellis smiled as he removed a Class Two anti-personel mine from his kit. It was easily anchored and a trip-wire could be tied just about anywhere it was needed before arming the mine. The explosives in it were enough to crack even a Stalker-type ARMOR suit wide open, more than enough to eliminate the weapons in the pit. The engineer handed the mine over to the point-man.

"Right-o, sarge, one booby-trapped weapons pit comin right up!"

The scout slipped forward again, retracing his steps to the pit as before. When he reached the pit, he slid the mine under a mass of the strange weapons and tied the ultra-thin tripwire around a pair of the devices. He shuffled a handful of leaves back into place over the mine and armed it, then returned to the Fireteam. On his way back, he touched up the leaves he stirred, leaving the ground behind him to show no trace of his passing.

When he returned to the group, they slipped back towards the first odd energy signature, and the growing mass of humanoids.....

"Status on ARTEMIS and ATHENA?"

Naismith sat back in his chair, watching the traces of the two defensive platforms shift to optimum firing positions. While the battle raged around Earth, the Order had remained untouched. Despite their good fortune, he knew they were in line for a force to sweep through and every bit of damage they could do now might prove to be the winning factor later on.

He just hated pulling out cards for the other side to see.

"They're in position, Sir. Waiting orders to fire."

Naismith nodded and then signaled to the com-officer. "Lieutenant, Order the platforms to link their fire control with the Tempest. The launch is to be coordinated to bracket that thing and saturate it's defenses, as per General Kaerion's orders."

"Yes, Admiral."

Chess, Naismith felt,would be a much better hobby to take up in the future.

Aboard the Destroyer just returning from Bryce the Emperor caught a disturbance he could not ignore. There were hundreds being tortured aboard the large ship just over the horizon. He concentrated upon the source of the "wrongness".

Reaching out with his mind he deftly probed at the turmoil. There were humans linked to some sort of machine that drained their very essence to power some sort of shielding. The people who were chained to it were dying from the strain. Something must be done. Searching further he caught a conversation on the bridge of the ship.

"Ready the gravity bombs and missiles!" He ordered, now beginning to lose sanity.

"Sire, we are close to Earth. A city or even a country may be swallowed!" An ensign said.

He allowed a darkside guard to shoot Force Lightning at the young man, killing him.

"I said, ready the gravity bombs and missiles!" He screamed. The rest of the crew, fearful for their lives, gave the orders. Admiral Tarkin smiled sickly. Now the so-called 'defenders' will die and die horribly...

The prospect of using singularities against the Earth itself sickened him.

The Emperor issued the command for support from the Babylon Space Tower.

He concentrated and connected to all the Ta’Nar on Earth. He directed a consorted effort to disconnect the slaves from the shields using the massive resources of the Ta’Nar. There will be thousands of Psi acting together to remove the minds from the grip of the atrocity The Palpatine's Revenge’s shields.

Probing the mind of the maddened admiral, Nhur-Galladu attempted to locate the location of the Sith Lord that mislead him. He was going to have a “conversation” with him as soon as he can find the fleeing lord.

Within minutes the Torpedo Frigates arrived.

“Take out the big ship. They are planning on using singularities against the Earth. Stop them.”

Twenty Torpedo Frigates began their attack vectors and opened all their torpedo tubes upon the The Palpatine's Revenge. Dozens of mark72 Torps locked upon the large ship.

The Ta’Nar began to shut down the shield system by removing the ability of the people trapped within to make psionic contact with the shields, removing the “force” power from the system. The Ta’Nar then gently placed them asleep so they would not feel the destruction of the ship as the shields failed.


The Emperor scanned the Earth for the location of the Sith Lord. He will make him pay dearly.

OOC: And no, I'm not going to suck up the whole Earth with black holes, although the space will be dangerous for a little while. We program them to shrink and disappear after growing to 15 miles wide or lasting 12 hours, whichever happens first. Both the Imperial Navy and the Sith use gravity weapons, but the I.N. use them far more rarely than the Sith do for obvious reasons.

IC:
"Sire, something is forcing our Force Shields to go down!" The darksider guard yelled, feeling the slaves stop.

"What?!" The Admiral raged. "Fire the grav weapons, NOW!"

At the Imperial Fleet, 5 gravity missiles were launched and imploded. Two Star Destroyers was caught in the swirling maws and the black holes tore them apart like a pack of dogs. Starfighters were also caught and torn apart, killing many pilots horribly by stretching their bodies every which way till they ripped into pieces.

At the Wolf fleet, 3 missiles were launched.

At the Kormanthor fleet, 6 missiles were launched.

At Balrogga's fleet, 4 missiles were launched.

The space near Earth was soon filled with singularites, dangerous for all travel, and the Dark Side laughed at the terrible destruction.

Using the Force, the Emperor and the Jedi slingshotted past the black holes, coming close to death himself, but finally coming out of the huge field of massive gravities and heading towards Earth. He felt for the Sith Lord, and found him, near Area 51...

The whole WASF/386SF move as fast as they could but a total of 5 ship were catch by the missiles. The ships have been destroyed. The rest of fleet head away for the black holes.

The Wolf One made it so what safe by the black holes because the Wolf One was on the tail of the Emperor's ship. But the Wolf One's engine shut down about half way to Area 51. Wolf One had to land about 4 miles away for Area 51.

Lord JWolf: "Unload the only Speed Wolf I on this ship, Black Wolf.We will need it."
Black Wolf: "Will do, my lord."

After a few minutes...

Black Wolf had the Speed Wolf I unload and ready to go.

Lord JWolf jumps into driver seat & Black Wolf jump in the gunner station. They take off heading for Area 51.

After about 6 minutes pasts....

The Speed Wolf I stop about 50 yards away for Area 51 in the shadows. Lord JWolf and Black Wolf get out then start watching for the Sith lord.

"It would apear that the earthlings do wish to heed my warning. No matter, set courese for Mexico city. This time, we will not give the fortune of a quick death. Prepare to launch all Repli-Fighters. Send a message to Lord Jingo, ask him send troops take the city."

In an hour, it had begun. Wormholes opened up, around the city, 50,000 hybreds, and about 5 million replicator bugs were surrounding the city. In the sky, 300 Repli-Fighters and 300 Replifighters v.2 began to close in on the city.

It was what could only be called a bonzai charge, from all sides. Staff weapon blasts pierced the air, striking their target down with a single, fatal blow. Replicator bugs charged at people, jumping onto them, and forcibly inserting a replicator block into the person. With in seconds after that happening, the person was a hybred, completely subserviant to Lord Jingo.

Within minutes, unarmed hybreds were charging at the people, beating them down with their barehands. The Repli-Fighters streamed down from the heavens, unleashing their six small, rapid firing lasers to butcher the opposition. Every know and then, an angered pilot would fire a blast from their shock cannons, striking with about the force of a direct bolt of lightening.

The Repli-Fighter v.2s did not carry shock cannons. Instead, they carried a single torpedo tube. They launched a few plasma torpedos into the center of the city, causing mass amounts of property damages.

The citizens tried to fight back, using all the tools at their disposal. The police managed to round up some assualt rifles, but their weapons were just know match.

Commander Jenkins lead the stike, he believed in fighting on the front lines with his men, and he did. His squad of 4 other men and himself, became isolated from the rest of the men. They became cornered in a small street that came to a sudden dead end. They were backed into a corner.

The police managed to douse them in rifle fire, giving the commanders squad little chance to fire back. The commander was a fierce warrior, and he knew that he had to save his comrades. He valiently charged out into the hail of bullets.

He skillfully used his ribbon device to project a forcesheild, which repelled the enemy fire, but it could not hold up much longer. He shor repeated staff weapon blasts, as he charged towards the police, but few managed to find their mark.

It ended with the commander going into a dive towards one of the men as his sheild failed. He was hit several times, but managed to fire of a blast with his ribbon device, crushing most of the man he dived at's internal organs.

Because of his actions, his team was rallied to victory over the police charging them head on. They beat the men down with their staff weapons, before delivering the final burst of energy into them. The commander's fate was still up in the air.

OOC: Crap, it switched me over to this name again....This is Jingo...

Twenty Torpedo Frigates began their attack vectors and opened all their torpedo tubes upon the The Palpatine's Revenge. Dozens of mark72 Torps locked upon the large ship.

Even though many point-defense lasers destroyed many torpedoes, some still got through and knocked down shields. This allowed laser fire to pour into the holes, causing hull breaches that sucked away crewmembers and slaves.

The Torpedo unloaded their missiles as the SSD fired theirs. The frigates took evasive actions and tried to dodging them. The first two missiles struck two frigates. The singularities opened up and devoured more ships before the other Frigates could initiate Torq Maneuvering and Uplift. The event horizons ate 7 frigates into nothingness.

“Maneuver below them and fire a barrage of Grav Torps into their underside.”

The remaining 14 frigates changes positions, dropped into T-Space, and fired upon the SSD with full loads of Grav Torpedoes. The ships then tried to uplift before they were fired upon again.




The Emperor felt a familiar mind upon the surface. He directed the ship to go to southwestern North America.

To a place called Area 51….

Aboard the Wolf One...

Lord JWolf answered " Got your message, Emperor. We are on your six, now."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The WASF Timber Wolf & 386SF Scimitar & 386SF Bob II fire the main weapon at the bottom of the engine of the Palpatine's Revenge. The other ships fire at the bridge of the Palpatine's Revenge.


OCC; All my ships are cloaked, so your not firing at them. :)

OOC: And no, I'm not going to suck up the whole Earth with black holes, although the space will be dangerous for a little while. We program them to shrink and disappear after growing to 15 miles wide or lasting 12 hours, whichever happens first. Both the Imperial Navy and the Sith use gravity weapons, but the I.N. use them far more rarely than the Sith do for obvious reasons.

IC:
"Sire, something is forcing our Force Shields to go down!" The darksider guard yelled, feeling the slaves stop.

"What?!" The Admiral raged. "Fire the grav weapons, NOW!"

At the Imperial Fleet, 5 gravity missiles were launched and imploded. Two Star Destroyers was caught in the swirling maws and the black holes tore them apart like a pack of dogs. Starfighters were also caught and torn apart, killing many pilots horribly by stretching their bodies every which way till they ripped into pieces.

At the Wolf fleet, 3 missiles were launched.

At the Kormanthor fleet, 6 missiles were launched.

At Balrogga's fleet, 4 missiles were launched.

The space near Earth was soon filled with singularites, dangerous for all travel, and the Dark Side laughed at the terrible destruction.

UKS Vindictive / UKS Lexington
Two Kormanthoran ISD's
Cloaked in High Earth Orbit

Aboard Vindictive:

Captain are you sure that traveling through the area where they caused the singularites to open is a good idea?

Oh we are safe enough while we are cloaked lad. What this sith fellow
don't understand is that our cloaking device causes our ships to phase shift
into another plane of reality where we can see all that is transpiring in the
normal universe,but, they can't see or touch us with any weapon.

Helm come about behind and above that damnable alien ship that fired those grav weapons. They think we were destroyed with the Dark Raven, so
we and the Lexington have a little surprise for them.

But sir don't we need to contact the Lexington to compare notes so to speak?

It's already been done, I beamed a droid over to the Lexington with
all the details before we cloaked.

Captain we are now out of the singularity field.

Thank You Lt.

Sir! I read a massive power drop in their shields!

OK Boys & Girls we have to hit them fast and hard! This is what we have been waiting on!

Weapons Officer hit them with everything we've got as soon as we decloak.

Aye Sir

Engineer I want you to drop the cloaks just long enough to fire our weapons once then immediately recloak.

I understand sir

OK it's time make it happen by the numbers people if we ever want to
be able to go home again.


( Suddenly the Vindictive & Lexington decloak behind and above the
alien grav weapon ship. Both ships fireing all railguns, turbo lasers, warp phasers, & quantum torpedos at the same time then quickly recloak before
any return fire can answer the attack. )

On board the Dominion
Somewhere between Earth and Luna
Orbital Insertion Burn for Gobi Desert, China

"Sir, we've got a contact that you might want to take a look at!" announced Petty Officer Second Class Sai Argyle.

"What is it, Mister Argyle?" Gryzlov asked, as he floated across the deck and maneouvred himself such that he was behind the sensor operator. On the THERMO-PERCEIVE screen, Argyle had hightlighted two of the many green red blips. These two were seemed to be moving, very slowly, but neither heading inwards nor outwards. Rather, they were moving in a circular path, sideways. There had been less blips now than a few days ago, most probably beacuse most of the fighting was on Earth.

"Admiral, I think these two objects could be orbital space constructs of the Naturals. Wait a minute...Sir! I have detected faint datalink signals between these objects... and an extremely faint communications signal... Dang! I lost it! Triangulating position of origin...there!"

Gryzlov watched as Argyle's fingers flew furiously over his own command console. He had no doubt that the Dominions crew were one of the best trained within ZAFT. (OOC Note: Zodiac Alliance of Freedom Treaty, ignore my previous statements about AONSDFs and whatnot) Minutes later, a small, green triangle floated up onto the screen.

"A communications link and a datalink, hmm? Two command units?" Gryzlov stroked his chin, where a stubble was already beginning to grow. Now, doesn't that put whatever was sending the comm signals directly in our path?

"I'm afraid so, Sir..." came the reply.

"No response from any other space-based Natural defenders yet, Sir!" reported another sensor operator from below, in the Combat Information Centre (CIC).

"Very well. Commodore Badgiruel, have our Lohengrins charged up and ready to fire. Send a secure message our other Archangel-class ships to do the same, but do not assign any targets yet. I want the Freedom and the Justice to be readied for launch, as well as the Dion MS Team. All other ships except the Menelaos will prepare GuAIZs for launch."

"Lohengrins are already done, Sir. Am sending your orders for launch status."

"Excellent. Maintain all normal operations, and continue as per normal for our insertion burn."

With a slight flex of his calves, Gryzlov propelled himself across the zero-grav deck, and kept his concentration on the external camera views. He had not received any news from his "allies" regarding the 'police actions'. It looked like he might have to conquer land after all. Well, that would depend on Chairman Kimura.

OOC: BlackWolf, those are yours I'm targeting. :P As for the others I'll assume you're on the other side of the Earth...don't come whack me! lol :D

After the bombing, one gate stood. Belisarius looked at the Emperors orders, and sighed. He walked outside and issuded the order to leave trough the last gate. He then looked at the Pyrimids and smiled. Even now the Necrons where becomeing larger underground, and they would continue to create their lybarinth underground. In the next thirty years, their numbers would increase ten fold, and then they would preduce faster and faster. He left throught the gate chuckling, in 1000 years this world would be under Tsurani control, and he was fine with waiting, he had been waiting sice the Roman Empire for the Tsurani plans to become one.

OOC Yes, I think I did that very well, And yes, he is the Belisarius who worked for the Byzitines way back, I am allowed to make him Eldar.

OOC: Your timing is impeccable, AO....You'll know when to strike! The MOST inopportune moment!

The SSD Firebolt unleashed another major volley of turbolasers and ion cannons at the Palpatine's Revenge at the same time the allies fired their weapons.

"Sir! Forward shields down, dorsals shields down, ventral shields down, side shields down!" The shields officer reported in horror.

"Does that mean we only have aft shields?" An Imperial Star Destroyer tradiing broadsides with the rear of the ship answered the Admiral's question. "Damn it!"

"Shields are down!" Admiral Eisenhower of the Firebolt said to all allies, ships and fighters. "Concentrate all your firepower on the ship!"

The remaining Impstars and Superstar continued to pour heavy broadsides into the ESSD, while the fighters made attack runs on the city-like surface, peppering the turbolaser cannons with deadly laser and missile fire. The ship is getting close to breakup...

All WASF/386SF ships move to back up to ESSD and opens fire will after thing have.

The Torps from the 14 Torpedo Frigates begin generating their singularities within and around the SSD. Gravametric readings go off the scale as 112 singularities appear. The Frigates Uplift and watch the destruction.

The ESSD was finally torn apart by the combined volleys of various weapons and the singularities. The reactor blew up, blowing the ship along the superlaser spine and then subsequent explosions erupted as magazines cooked off and other explodables continued the death of the ship.

"NOOOOOOOO!" Was the final cry of Admiral Tarkin as he died a firey death.

One of the last shots was a grav missile that headed for the city of Los Angeles. The missile detonated above the city, and began sucking everything, from children and adults to vehicles and buildings and even Sith troops that got too close. The black hole grew until it was as wide as the city and the winds got so terrible that everything from within 100 miles was sucked in, causing a tsunami as well. Everything swirled around the event horizon, and then they disappeared from the universe, forever. The black hole, having grown to full size, finished feeding and disappeared, leaving a large crater and the centrifugal force of the remaining debris and bodies was thrown every which way. This was the final revenge of the Palpatine's Revenge.

The Sith ISDs, knowing they were defeated, began to flee...
but the SSD powered up it's gravity wells and FTLi and kept them from leaving.

All WASF/386SF ships turns at the Sith ISD and fires all weapons.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

At Area 51...

Lord JWolf looks where his massive was and saw the ESSD Palpatine's Revenge being blow up. Lord JWolf to himself "We got that bastard."

OOC:The plane? With nukes?

IC: [If this is wrong, ignore it]"Sir, planes incoming!"
"Spread out!" Lucifer shouted to his men. They sprinted around, hoping to miss the missiles. The projectiles came smashing down, killing many men and some dreadnoughts. The radiation would not effect the Sons, as their armour is sealed tight it can't be removed. The Dreadnoughts were the same as the Sons. However, the radiation would effect everything else....

Massive earthquakes occurred as the 15-mile-deep crater disrupted the delicate crust of the San Andreas Fault, killing yet more people. The quakes lasted for several minutes and registered the most horrifying number on the Richter Scale: a 12 or higher. Complete devastation occured in many towns and cities in California, and even Area 51 felt the quake. Another Sith revenge.

The Dark Lord smiled as he ordered his army of the best Dark Jedi and Sith Guards (black robes, but otherwise like Royal Guards) to attack the base. Crimson lightsabers flashed and bullets whistled in the air as the Dark Jedi and Sith Lord fought the soldiers and Secret Service. It was clear that the Dark Ones are winning, but there was no escape for this one, no more.

The Sith ISDs fell one by one to the fleets and then, there was one.

Lord JWolf called the Wolf One "Call the Emperor. We need him in Area 51, now."
The pilot on the Wolf One, "Done, my lord." then she pushs a button on her panel. "To the Emperor ship. My lord need the Emperor at Area 51, now."

Nhur-Galladu stared at the screen with horror. One of the Gravity Bombs had gotten through. The resulting 15 mile crater of eaten Earth was visable from orbit.

"Get me to Area 51 so I can stop this"

The Emperor landed and his Jedi and Elite troops piled out of the accompanying shuttles and began to fight the Dark Jedi in a mass lightsaber duel.

The Emperor noticed the Sith Lord going towards the base itself, and called JWolf to help intercept him.

"Stop right there, Sith!" The Emperor said. Lord Serpentus turned around and sneered.

"So, the Emperor have come to fight me. Lord Serpentus, is my name." He ignited his dual bladed lightsaber. "And your death will be mine!"

"I don't think so!" The two men began fighting, sparks clashing whenever they met.

For some odd reason, Duel of the Fates (http://www.soundamerica.com/sounds/themes/movies/starwar7.wav) begins to pipe into all radio stations, civilian and military as the duel begins. The fleet crewmen watched scene from a News chopper who was allowed to view the duel.

OOC/Commercial IC:The Duel of the Emperor and the Sith! Buy it now, for only $29.99! :D

Out of the shadow fly a man with blue lightsaber hitting a Dark Jedi in the head. Then he does a force wave at the other Dark Jedis.

Black Wolf open fire on the Dark Jedis from the shadow with his 50 cal. machine gun.

After the bombing, one gate stood. Belisarius looked at the Emperors orders, and sighed. He walked outside and issuded the order to leave trough the last gate.

OOC Yes, I think I did that very well, And yes, he is the Belisarius who worked for the Byzitines way back, I am allowed to make him Eldar.

OOC- Ummm....no, I don't think they'll be doing that. Those pyramids were obliterated by a nuclear strike, remember? And how are the necrons becoming bigger? They can't grow in size or number. They're friggin machines! Necrons there would be in stasis and their numbers wouldn't go down or up, without additional troops sent through the gate or the destruction of them.

That's how necrons work. Anything else is a blatant godmode.

Out of the shadow fly a man with blue lightsaber hitting a Dark Jedi in the head. Then he does a force wave at the other Dark Jedis.

Black Wolf open fire on the Dark Jedis from the shadow with his 50 cal. machine gun.

Several dark Jedi were mowed down by the sudden attack, but the others set upon Black Wolf.

The Emperor fought hard with the Sith, and noticed a blue lightsaber killing a Dark Jedi. Hurry, Lord Jwolf! Can't hold out for long!

The Emperor fought hard with the Sith, and noticed a blue lightsaber killing a Dark Jedi. Hurry, Lord JWolf! Can't hold out for long!

Black Wolf downs his gun and draw his sword. He start swing it at the Dark Jedis before they got to him. It is a 6 feet long sword.

Lord JWolf notices the Emperor fighting Sith Lord and runs over to help him.

The President stared in awe as the duel intensified. The two Jedi fought the Sith Lord for many minutes, each side trying to upstage the other. The Sith began to throw objects at the two Jedi, hoping to make them lose concentration.

The Emperor used his own TK to block the debris and sliced them in half before continuing to try and slice the Sith in half.

Two Dark Jedi raised their sabers and clashed with the Black Wolf. (you may kill them)

Black Wolf's sword hits one of the attacking Dark Jedi head, cutting it in half. Then drops his sword and put his Colt 'Python Elite' and shoot the other one in his head. The Dark Jedi does a back flip then hit the gound, bleeding for a huge hole in his head. Black Wolf picks up his sword then runs to block the only door to where the President is.

Lord JWolf use his mind to lift some hummers tire and throw them at the Sith Lord.

The Sith Lord jumped back to slice the tires. He then raises a hand a unleashes Force Lightning. The Emperor blocked it with his saber.

The Sith Lord jumped back to slice the tires. He then raises a hand a unleashes Force Lightning. The Emperor blocked it with his saber.

Lord JWolf lifted his left arm that has the exoskeleton armor-like thing and it took all of the lighting. But pushed Lord JWolf back about 10 deet. It started glowing red. Then Lord JWolf started laughing and then raises his left hand at the Sith Lord, send all of it by at him.
After that, Lord JWolf raise his left hand at one of the Dark Jedi's lightsaber that Black Wolf killed. The lightsaber shot to his hand. Now, Lord JWolf has two lightsabers. He runs up about ten feet and attacks the Sith Lord.

OOC: The exoskeleton armor-like thing takes in energy.

The Sith Lord was blasted by the energy, and he shook it off, enraged. With three lightsabers, Lord Jwolf and Emperor Masaki began to beat the twin blades of the Sith, but even so, it was only a matter of time before one of the Force-users would begin to tire...

Lord JWolf order "Black Wolf, get over and help us." Then Sith Lord's lightsaber hits the exoskeleton armor-like thing and gets Lord JWolf more energy to use again the Sith Lord.

Black Wolf cuts the last of the Dark Jedis in half and order the last of the SS guards to watch over the President. He then runs over to the battle between the two Jedis & the Sith Lord. He swing his sword at the Sith Lord's lightsaber...


OOC: This sound like the battle with Darth Maul.

OOC: When you have a Sith Lord with a dual-blade lightsaber...lol.

IC:
The hilt of the blade was cut and the Sith now uses twin blades. However, a 3 or 4-on-1 disadvantage meant that he was soon struck first by the Emperor through the midsection. Lord JWolf chopped off his head, and the body blew with pent-up Dark energy.

OOC: Oh my...looks like things are nearly finishing already. :P As for BlackWolf, well...I posted when I could...:P lol.

OOC: I'll be coming after you soon! Prepare! Bwahahaha!

Lord JWolf said "Damn, he was stong." then turn to Black Wolf and high fives him. "Black Wolf get all of the Dark Jedis."

Black Wolf started gets them.

Then turn to look at the Emperor and says "What now?"

OOC: I'm getting off in a few mins. I will be, later.

"I say we should continue to go after other invaders." The Emperor said. "Mr. President, I'm Emperor Andrew Masaki of the Imperial Republic of Coreworlds."

"Thank you for saving my life, but yeah, it's not over yet."

A ship approaches the duel and lands. The door opens and Nhur-Galladu walks out. The aura of power shimmers in a bubble around him. Several of the Dark Jedi attempt to fire at him. The blows simply deflect off the bubble. The Emperor glances in the direction of a Dark Jedi rushing at him with lightsabre drawn. The soldier stops in his tracks with a blank expression upon his face and slumps to the ground, his mind an empty pit.

"Where is the Sith?"

Another Dark Jedi was picked up in the air and dragged screaming towards the Emperor. He was brought up against the bubble with a sickening crack of broken bones.

"I asked you a question. I will only give you one chance to answer me before I rip it from your pathetic mind. It won't feel very nice..."


The Dark Jedi attempted to resist the Mental Probe. A trickle of blood began to flow from his nose as he tried to resist. His face contorted in agony.

"Well, you can't say I didn't give you a chance to answer."


The Emperor applied a little "pressure" to the Jedi's mind shield. The man began to scream and thrash about like he was being gutted alive. Blood flowed from his ears, nose, and mouth.

"You cannot stop me. You don't even have the power to try resisting. You are mine, both body and mind. You will tell me right before you die."


Several of the other Dark Jedi starts throwing Force Lightning at Nhur-Galladu in an attempt to free their comrade. The blasts are diverted and channeled at other Dark Jedi. Several fall, apparently stunned or killed by the bows from their team mates. Nhur-Galladu turn his attention back to his prey. Blood began to weal from the captive’s eyes as they started to bulge. Suddenly the Dark Jedi’s eyes exploded, gore dripping down the shimmering shield. The man screamed even louder and stopped suddenly as his head imploded, sending a spray of gore flying for several meters.

The Emperor chuckled.

"There, I knew you had something to tell me. I hope it didn’t hurt too badly.”


Nhur-Galladu began moving in the direction of the Sith Lord, tossing aside any who stood in his way.

Nhur-Galladu began moving in the direction of the Sith Lord, tossing aside any who stood in his way.

OOC: The Sith Lord and all of Dark Jedis are die, now. You are too late.

Emperor Masaki chuckled a bit. "I'm afraid you're too late, Your Highness. We've already dealt with the Sith Lord. I do think that you may have done a little overkill there, but hey. I think it's time we mop up the rest of the invaders."

Emperor Masaki chuckled a bit. "I'm afraid you're too late, Your Highness. We've already dealt with the Sith Lord. I do think that you may have done a little overkill there, but hey. I think it's time we mop up the rest of the invaders."

"I have to let some of my ships repair before we go after other invaders," said Lord JWolf get a beer out of the Speed Wolf I, "Andrew, do you want a Wolf beer?"

Black Wolf load all of the Dark Jedis' lightsaber into the Speed Wolf I.

"Nah. Gotta be on top of my senses. Nothing worse than a drunk Jedi." Andrew grinned.

Meanwhile, an Imperial Star Destroyer orbited the planet, just sniffing for other invaders to hit with a really big stick.

OOC: Shouldn't be hard for Anime-Otaku to see it as it comes around.

"Ok, no beer for you," said Lord JWolf then turns to Black Wolf "Finish loading the lightsabers and other Dark Jedi's stuff and have the Speed Wolf ready to leave in 30 mins."
Black Wolf said "Yes, my lord." as he was loading more lightsabers into Speed Wolf.

"If you need to make repairs you can dock with Babylon Space Tower. It is above the pacific ocean. It is the only man made mountain reaching into orbit so it should be easy to spot."

"We can then clean up the invaders and any others who are trying to carve the Earth into their own kingdome. We also should check out North Africa for anything left behind after the invaders left from their assult. They seemed to leave kinda early. I am suspicious of their motives."

Good Morning Kormanthor this is Silaqui Nerari reporting for KNBC News
here onboard the Triadian Galaxy Castle; TAU PSI, now stationed on our
Beautiful Niteshae Islands.
This is a very soecial occasion indeed, with us today we
have an honest to goodness Triadian Princess... Her name is Brandy Ty"Ara.


( The camera again pans back to the Princess as she responds... )


Greetings! to all the people of the Earth! Most especially you Ms.
Nerari, and to KNBC for televising this moment.


( The camera stays on the Princess as you hear Ms. Nerari's
response from outside the viewfinder of the camera )

On behalf of KNBC & Kormanthor I wish to thank you for agreeing
to be here with us. Princess we are extremely honored to meet you at
last. I myself consider speaking to you for KNBC a highlight of my news
career. Over the many years sense our two peoples discovered each
other and became friends & allies we have heard many good things about
you & the Triadian Federation.

( To be continued )

IC:
The United States Army circled around the odd blue objects one more time before the Blackhawk settled down several miles from it. 30 soldiers piled out of the chopper and headed towards the wormholes, five of them scientists with guns.

OOC: Gyah! Hope that comment from me didn't rush you into things

As the ICBMs neared the midway point of their journey, they began to rise into the upper atmosphere so they could come screaming down towards Samtonia.

Radars watched this happen and Samtonia's newest form of technology was revealed.

Number of innocent looking weather satellites slowly moved over the projected path of the ICBMs. AS the missiles neared, a series of signals went out to the satellites, culminating in every one of them exploding and showering shrapnel towards the oncoming missiles.

Going at speeds over Mach-6, the cloud of metal made contact with the delicate bodies of the missiles, shearing off guidance packages, sensor suites, contacting with the warheads, and in some cases puncturing the fuel cells of the missiles.

AS the dust cleared, the broken and useless forms of missiles began to fall back from the sky. The satellites had taken their toll. Only 7 ICBMs remained.

Two were targetted at Samtonia City, while the others began to fall towards other metropolii.

Now it really was up to those on the ground.

OOC: I had to do something, lol.

IC:
The Star Destroyer noticed a ship heading towards the Asian area. The Dominion was in the Devastator's sensors as it came around.

"Attention, unknown ship. State your intentions or risk destruction." The Devastator's captain said. He turned to his officers. "So what do you have?"

"Scanners indicate that it is an Anime-Otaku ship tagged as Dominion."

"Very well. If it's hostile, prepare the turbolasers."

"Yes, sir."

[OOC]: Has anyone ever noticed how BUMPy roads are these days?

IC:
The United States Army circled around the odd blue objects one more time before the Blackhawk settled down several miles from it. 30 soldiers piled out of the chopper and headed towards the wormholes, five of them scientists with guns.

The men sat back to back on the ground. They feebely yelled, "Help, Over Here!" They wore tattered clothes, stained crimson from the freely bleeding scratches and wounds, which seemed to cover their entire bodies. The shivered from the cold, and appeared quite guant in stature. The looks on their faces seemed quite sincere, they were as if they had truly survived a most horrifying experiance.

A soldier whistled at the damage and called for a medic.

"My my. You have quite a lot of bleeding here. It's a wonder you weren't infected." The medic said.

He opened his kit and got to work treating the men.

A GI came by as they were treated. "What happened to you guys?"

"We were trying to hide from the invaders in this forrest. But our generator stoped working, we ran out of food, water. We've been making our way through the wilderness, ever since."

Klaxons began to blare on ships clustered along Samtonia's coast and major port cities. As soldiers scrambeled to their ready positions, the on-board radars began tracking the massive signatures of the ICBMs. Their re-entry was beginning and the "Beaver" Aegis-2 ships would be one of the first lines of defense.

But first it was the long rangers turn.

As data trickeled in, batteries all around Samtonia began to automatically travers their missiles at the sky.

Almost as if on cue, missiles began leaping off rails and out of tubes, all heading to intercept.
++++++++++++++
As thousands of missiles tracked their massive energy spikes, all but two of the ICBMs began to drop apart, forming many targets to hopefully overwhelm the radar of enemy nations.

The two that malfunctioned were torn apart in the first moments of the strike, their massive signatures easy prey for the advanced Samtonian missiles.

However, as more and more signatures began to blossom, missiles started veering off, smashing into useless pieces of metal, old fuel cells, and flase radar signals.

Only two more missiles were downed by the farthest interceptors.

Three remained. Two could be targeted by both ground installations as well as naval vessels. The lsat one would have to be shot by ground units alone.
++++++++++++
Soon, the medium range missiles began to open up in firing capabilities. Both the many installations in and around Samtonian cities as well as Aegis-2 vessels opened fire at this point.

So many missiles were in the air that some locked on to each other, destroying fellow interceptors in massive plumes of fire. But the amount fired was too great. Two more missiles disintigrated over Samtonia, adding their burning pieces to ground below.

But one still remained. It was nearing the point of no-return now, where its warhead would seperate into multiple pieces to hopelessly confuse any other ICBM defense sites. Now the short range missiles and guns had to protect Samtonia.

A blossom of fire rose into the sky, missiles veering off towards energy spikes, gattling guns and their likes rattling off thousands of rounds. All this destructive power was aimed at the one massive incoming missile.

And it was too much. The missile blew apart in a shower of radioactive pieces and fell to the ground, a useless hunk of burning metal. Samtonia was safe from ICBM attacks for now.

"Mr. President. All ICBMs have been shot down by Samtonian forces."

"Really?" President Tiberius' eyebrows raised. "They're good."

Samtonia Council, I commend you on surviving our ICBMs.
I will not fire any more, since my anger is spent. Congratulations.

"We were trying to hide from the invaders in this forrest. But our generator stoped working, we ran out of food, water. We've been making our way through the wilderness, ever since."

"You must have had an ordeal." the medic said. "There, that should do it. You'll need to go to a hospital for future check ups, though. Our Blackhawks can take you to Portland, where there's still a living city."

"You must have had an ordeal." the medic said. "There, that should do it. You'll need to go to a hospital for future check ups, though. Our Blackhawks can take you to Portland, where there's still a living city."

The man began to laugh dillusionally, as he grabbed the medics arms. "I shall not be going anywhere. Soon you will ll be part of us. You will become one with all." he shouted.

Electric blasts flew throughout the air, rendering their target unconscious. From all around the twenty some hybreds began to close in around the men. From beneath the enemy, replicator blocks came together, in an effort to hold the men in place. They also formed replicator bugs, who transformed the fallen enemies, into hybreds.

The 3 Repli-Fighters took off, and hovered over head. They remained cloaked, as they watched the situation unfold.

"Wha---!" The medic said before slumped unconsious. The young GI jerked back and started to fire at the aliens.

"Hostiles...Ratatatatatatata....hostiles!" He repeated in his radio as the things overwhelmed him. That was just enough warning for the other soldiers to raise weapons and fire at whatever looks like giant bugs. The Apaches came by, looking for enemies to fire at...

OOC: You can kill all but 10. 3 scientists and 7 soldiers are to live.

OOC: For clarifacation, im guessing you have 20 people there? And of those 20, up to 10 can die, but 3 scientists and 7 soldier must live?

Sorry, but I'm tired and I just want to be sure before I post.

The arc of ICBM's and intercepting missiles and other units formed a suprisngly inticing and altogether nerve wracking drama in the Triancian Situation room. As each American ICBM was shot down by Samtonia, there was a bit of cheering in the room, as if this had be Triancian defensive forces, and not that of an ally. Finally, it was annouced that all ICBM's and warheads had been eliminated, and the room erupted into a brief frenzy of cheers and appulase. It meant that an Ally in this war would remain intact, and ally which would be worth having once the invasion reached furthur stages.

President Stanton waved the comm Sergeant over. "Tell the leader of the Samtonia Council that we'll take 20 of those sattilites, 40 of those Aegis-2's, and will a money order be okay?" The Sergeant managed to supress a chuckle as he jogged over to send that very messege.

"Sir?"

Stanton looked around, spotting the voice. "Yes, Wernick?"

The SecDef handed him a classifed Status report, which Roger took up and began reading. After a few minutes, he nodded. "Do it."

Of the Nievraian coast, two Triancian ARG's of the Royal Triancian Marine Corps and Navy began to deploy, landing craft preparing to move off and hit on of the beaches. At the same time, a messege was sent to Nievra.

"Need a hand?"

OOC: 30. the number a Blackhawk can carry, IIRC.

OOC: Thanks for the clarifacation. If you don't mind, I think I'm gonna wait until that Blackwolf Order guy makes a post in regards to the situation, because I pretty sure hes gonna attack right around this point in the RP. Just so theres now backposting and what not.

OOC: Cool.

Babylon 1

The area around the Space Tower seemed a little more crowded and ominous than it has been in the past few weeks. The presence of ships was not a strange view to the inhabitants, nor was the presence of foreign ships. What made the difference is every ship in view was a warship.

There were destroyers, frigates, cruisers, carriers, fighters, battleships, and a few dreadnaughts. There were at least three nations present in full force, their ships numbering in the hundreds. The sky above the eastern pacific was very crowded indeed.

The Imperial Flagship, a Hades Class Dreadnaught was parked in her own orbit near the Imperial Docks. An entourage of support vessels surrounded the huge vessel. The rows of turrets and torpedo ports assured nobody disturbed this lady.

Aboard the behemoth a lone figure waited for the fleet to finish repairs. He wanted to get back defending Earth from those who would carve it up for their own. He was also angry the Sith Lord got away. His body was destroyed but Nhur-Galladu could feel his essence slip away mockingly. He will meet this Lord Serpentus again and next time he will not escape. First, there were other fish to fry.

As the last ship left the repair docks, a message was sent to the other two nations.

“I am ready, who is next?”

Pacific Northwest, United States of America
Earth, Sol System
Fireteam Bravo
1st STARMORED Battalion

As the first blue flashes of electricity contacted the soldiers, their cries were drowned out by the dragon's roar of a twenty-two millimeter sniper cannon's discharge. Horn had settled his sights between the eyes of the...person who siezed hold of the American medic and the sights had remained as he stroked the trigger with a lover's touch. The spent casing ejected itself from the chamber and a new round loaded itself in its stead. He drew a bead on another and the dragon roared again. The process repeated itself until the magazine of five rounds had run dry and he was forced to reload, an operation requiring only a handful of seconds.

Perhaps a second after the sniper's signal to commence the attack, the two massive autocannons strapped to the squadleader and tail man opened up, lending their own flame and roar to the rising din. They swept the bullet hoses across their fields of fire, slicing their way through trees as a knife through butter.

"HVSAM targets on scope! Locking on, firing!"

Two gouts of fire lept from the shoulders of Private Coreys, followed a second later by matching flame from the shoulders of Sergeant Ellis and Specialist Lyons. Each pair of missiles tracked one of the fliers, their powerful impellers pushing them to incredibly high speeds inside of a couple of seconds. The auto-reloaders in the racks attached to their STARMOR brought the next pair of missiles up from their stores to reload the emptied launchers and they continued to track the enemies in the air, ready to fire at a moment's notice.

"Sarge, those things that came up out of the ground! They're doing something to those Americans!" Specialist Franklin had unholstered his plasma cannon and was ready to wash the area clean with its glorious starfire.

"Lerkspit! Bowie, Franklin, dont let those things near us, they're some sorta machines!"

"Yes sarge!" The two STARMORED troopers exclaimed, Bowie now unracking his weapon as well. In unison, the pair pulled the trigger on their massive weapons and the furnace of a star erupted forth, its cleansing fire rushing across the landscape.

High Earth Orbit
Earth, Sol System
ARTEMIS Orbital Defense Platform

"Sir, I'm getting those shadowy-contacts again. Can't figure out what it is, shall I launch a probe?"

Commander Bartson nodded. "Yes, Lieutenant. Do so, but make sure it stays away from our firing vectors for the initial launch."

"Yes sir."

Bartson looked at the missile plot relayed to him from the Tempest. The targeted ship, which quite frankly resembled a high-tech pyramid, remained stationary, watching over the happenings below. This would be its undoings. Normally, when firing upon a starship with Fold-Space missiles, there was a certain difficulty in hitting them. A gunner had to predict where the ship would be seven seconds after the missiles folded, which meant that sometimes a missile could be very close, but sometimes it could be terribly far.

To properly strike a ship underweigh, the firers would have to 'bracket' the enemy with missiles, taking into account shields, thrust, velocity and any possible manuvers from that vector. Becoming a truly skillful missilieer required a certain feel that couldn't be tought-many a gunner would say they just 'felt' where the enemy would be.

"Sir! Signal coming in from Tempest! They're reentering sidereal space now!"

Twelve klicks above the platforms, the Cruiser and Dreadnought appeared, their hulks visible even from the distance. In a moment of perfect coordination, three-hundred and fifty fold space missiles were ejected from their ports. The energy discharge from the launch was almost negligible, passively propelled from the ships. Four seconds after release, and the missiles dissapeared for the next seven seconds.

When they would reappear, they would be bracketing the enemy ship, but a full two-hundred missiles would fold into the space occupied by the other ship. If there were shields, some could be deflected and destroyed, or even the majority.

But then again, when it came to the annihilation of matter, only one needed to get through.

ARTEMIS and ATHENA's stores spent, a quintuplet of SPCs lifted, carrying the reload canisters for the platform missile systems. Until then, all they had to rely upon was the protection of the starships twelve kilometers away and the massive five-shot Hard Cannons around which the rest of the stations were built.

( Dramatically the cameras open with the futuristic view of the Cities
Three Mile High Skyline. Huge passager starliners are floating next to some
of the buildings boarding walkways. While various airkars, aircraft,aerial
mecha starfighters, and starships of various descriptions dart about in a fury
of movement. Then the camera pans around to a beautiful human woman
standing on the shores of Lake Kormanthor with the Kapri Mountain Range
in the background )

This is Tabitha Jennings reporting for KNBC News in Essembra. Today
a spokesperson of the state department reveiled that our beloved King Mateo
has retired abdicating his throne to Prince Matthew, his first born son. This
marks the end of a era of peace and the beginnings of era where we
must fight for the survival of our home world.
To this end, King Matthews first order of business was to go before
the Parliament to ask for a huge raise in defense spending to counter the
invading forces from outer space. Speaking to the Parliament the President
said " It is imperative that we are able to share technology with our allies
against these invaders and that we make sure our own defenses are the
best that we can muster. Therefore I am ordering our Navy to deliver star
fighters, Plasma Shield Grid Implacements, and Plasma Cannons to Samtonia
for that nations defense at no cost to them.
Afterwards King Matthew toured and inspected Kormanthors Great Wall
Plasma Shield Grid Facilities & Plasma Cannon Network which is our first line
of ground based protection against orbiting starships.
Finally, he visited Mateo Square where people by the hundreds of
thousands are being gated to AsterKore where they are transported by
transporters to waiting Triadian CityShips. Which in turn is being taken to
the Triadian Federations Worldship in the void between the Milkyway
and Andromeda Galaxies. Where they will be safe until hostilities with these
invaders are completed.

( Twelve hours later three Hoovercraft Class Aircraft Carriers and their
battle groups arrived in the international waters just outside Samtonian
waters and then sent this message to the Samtonian Government. )

UKS Centurian to Samtonia we need permission to enter your
waters in order to deliver the high tech defense measures to your country
that you asked for. Our Carriers are capable of landfall if you have an
open piece of ground big enough to handle three aircraftcarriers. We
will await your reply in international waters.

"We have it on our sensors, Sir!" exclaimed Petty Officer Second Class Argyle.

"One big target, distance 15000, Green, Gamma! Warbook puts the main target as space-station class. There appears to be two other targets nearby, Admiral, possible sub-units."

"Interesting. The Naturals actually have space stations..." Gryzlov murmured.

"Commodore, how long more till we are within Lohengrin range of the taget?"

"Not at least till the distance closes to 8000, Admiral." Badgiruel replied.

"Admiral! We've got two new contacts on our scope! One small, probe-class, and the other bears a similar signature to one of those ships which the Silverwind recorded in Bryce!" (OOC note: That's the ISD, Coreworlds, you were at the meeting with Balrogga and all, no?)

"A probe, and...a large ship, you say? Let me see."

Gryzlov floated over again to the sensor operator's station. On the screen, the major target was highlighted with a big, flashing green triangle. One small blip appeared to have moved from the flashing triangle, while the other was coming in from the side.

"That big one...it could be our allies. But we cannot risk compromising our location until we can destroy that Natural orbital emplacement, yet we also have to destroy the probe!" Gryzlov thought.

"Maintain radio silence. All communications are not to be attempted unless its extremely secure, and absolutely necessary," he ordered. Then, as he stroked his chin, an idea came to him.

"Commodore! Message the Seraphim, secure. Order Lieutenant Amarfi to launch in the Blitz, and destroy the enemy probe. We will give him the coordinates of the probe. The Blitz is to return imeediately after this mission."

"Yessir!" she replied, and got down to work at her own station in the CIC.

On board the Seraphim
Main Hangar

Sirens blared softly, as the sleek-looking, metal-grey OGAT-X207 Blitz Gundam was lifted onto the linear catapult launcher. The lights reflected off its armour a little, making it appear to glow within the confines of the hangar.

Lieutenant Nichol Amarfim tapped a button on his helmet. Instantly, the visor slid down, and became transparent to offer him better vision. He tapped a few buttons around his cockpit, and ran thorugh the launch checklist.

"Blitz is good to go," he finally reported.

"Roger, you are clear for launch in 5...4...3...2...1...GO!"

Nichol was thrown slightly forward, as the linear catapult launcher threw the Blitz forward using magnetic force. The hangar doors of the Seraphim had opened by then, and the Blitz was propelled into space.

A transmission came by, and flashed on one of his multi-function displays. One had the coordinates of the target he was supposed to destroy, and the other, the extreme limits of the N-Jammer 'cloud". Nichol would have to activate the Mirage Colloid System before he got out of the "cloud".

First things first though. Nichol hit the buttoned marked "PHASE SHIFT ON". Immediately, a layer of colour spread all over the metal-grey body of the Blitz Gundam, rendering it in a fearsome colour scheme of black, gold, and red trim. That completed the activation of the Phase Shift Armour, which was found on both Gundams, and the capital ships of the ZAFT forces.

OOC: If anyone, especially BlackWolf, wants a picture of the Blitz, you can TG me and I'll arrange for ways to have you see it. :D By the way, can I destroy the probe, BlackWolf? :D

Oh, and by the way... IC:
The Star Destroyer noticed a ship heading towards the Asian area. The Dominion was in the Devastator's sensors as it came around.

"Attention, unknown ship. State your intentions or risk destruction." The Devastator's captain said. He turned to his officers. "So what do you have?"

"Scanners indicate that it is an Anime-Otaku ship tagged as Dominion."

"Very well. If it's hostile, prepare the turbolasers."

"Yes, sir."

My fleet has N-Jammers, which supposedly disrupts neutron emissions, and also thus renders opposing sensors unable to detect anything within the range of the Jammers...so...it shouldn't be that easy for your ISD to detect my fleet. So...yea.

OOC:
Why, yesindeedyI'dlikethelink! Always been a bit of a gundam fan..

It'll take about 2-2.5 hours to fully re-arm the two Platforms....when they're reloaded, they can open fire again....But..if you can get an attack there inside the first hour-fifteen minutes....You can catch the platforms with only their Hard Cannons and light Anti-Fighter defenses, and a squadron of fighter escorts. For each fifteen minutes after that, you've got 24 missiles/platform coming online. (So, if you get there in one hour, thirty minutes, there will be 48 missiles/platform ready to fire.)

I've still got my two Cap-Ships lurking about, but if you can draw them off while you pounce the platforms.....

As for the probe....Feel free to tear it to as many pieces as you'd like.

"I repeat, this is the Imperial Star Destroyer Devastator, loyal to the Emperor of Coreworlds. State your intentions, Dominion or risk destruction."

Sirens blared softly, as the sleek-looking, metal-grey OGAT-X207 Blitz Gundam was lifted onto the linear catapult launcher. The lights reflected off its armour a little, making it appear to glow within the confines of the hangar.

Lieutenant Nichol Amarfim tapped a button on his helmet. Instantly, the visor slid down, and became transparent to offer him better vision. He tapped a few buttons around his cockpit, and ran thorugh the launch checklist.

"Blitz is good to go," he finally reported.

"Roger, you are clear for launch in 5...4...3...2...1...GO!"

Nichol was thrown slightly forward, as the linear catapult launcher threw the Blitz forward using magnetic force. The hangar doors of the Seraphim had opened by then, and the Blitz was propelled into space.

A transmission came by, and flashed on one of his multi-function displays. One had the coordinates of the target he was supposed to destroy, and the other, the extreme limits of the N-Jammer 'cloud". Nichol would have to activate the Mirage Colloid System before he got out of the "cloud".

First things first though. Nichol hit the buttoned marked "PHASE SHIFT ON". Immediately, a layer of colour spread all over the metal-grey body of the Blitz Gundam, rendering it in a fearsome colour scheme of black, gold, and red trim. That completed the activation of the Phase Shift Armour, which was found on both Gundams, and the capital ships of the ZAFT forces.

OOC: If anyone, especially BlackWolf, wants a picture of the Blitz, you can TG me and I'll arrange for ways to have you see it. :D By the way, can I destroy the probe, BlackWolf? :D

Oh, and by the way...

My fleet has N-Jammers, which supposedly disrupts neutron emissions, and also thus renders opposing sensors unable to detect anything within the range of the Jammers...so...it shouldn't be that easy for your ISD to detect my fleet. So...yea.

After the Admiral signs off he turns to the command duty officer of
the day, saying; " Commander I don't trust them either, make sure you
watch both of them very carefully. I'll be in my ready room, please inform
me of any new developments immediately.

Aye Aye Sir, you can count on me sir!

The captain chuckled a bit, but calmed down to wait for the response from the ship.

The droids heads where being cut off one by one.

Earth Base
"AHH" screamed the men as they released that they were being ambushed. Many turned and began to volley zat fire in most directions. It was still unclear what they were up against, or where they were.

A few men tried to grab staff weapons from the stores, but they encountered an unusual surprise. Just as they began to reach into the pit, a faulty step triggered their demise. An explosion incinerated the men, as well as destroying the weapons.

Now the men were truly in a panic. Many had already fallen to the fire. This unusual turn, allowed twelve of the earthlings to escape. The others were turned into hybreds, and were already joining in the fight.

The men ran, jumped, and tried to find cover, while volleying fire into the woods. Soon they began to coordinate with each other, in an effort to find and destroy their enemies. It was a shame that their numbers were already halfed, but they seemed to stay nineteen strong.

Many of those nineteen were officers. They had an advatage, due to the fact that they had ribbon devices. This also gave them a signifigant advantage in weapons over the other men, within that nineteen. It also gave them a force shield.

The three Repli-fighters were already in the air. They were searching for the ones the got away, as well as the attackers. If they got a sight of one, a blast from the shock cannon, or from the six rapid fire lasers, would surely dispatch them.

OOC: ill post the thing with the ships later. dont have time now.

The Apaches hovered above the ground, launching 2.75 inch rockets and blasting their cannons at whatever enemy happens to pop up and attack their comrades. They have yet to use their air-to-air missiles or Hellfires, but they radioed the situation to the base and the aircraft higher above.

The base dispatched more helicopters, and the Apaches banked to go back, running out of fuel as it is.

President Stanton waved the comm Sergeant over. "Tell the leader of the Samtonia Council that we'll take 20 of those sattilites, 40 of those Aegis-2's, and will a money order be okay?" The Sergeant managed to supress a chuckle as he jogged over to send that very messege.


Our dearest friends and allies.

We would be honored to help with the defenses of your country, in appreciation for the services rendered to us so far by your country.

We're willing to give you the plans for Aegis-2 ships for your own use, as a gesture between fellow human nations and defenders of Earth.

Unfortunately, the satellites were a top secret project. Production has just begun on larger quantities of them, but it will be some months before we would have a sufficient amount to justify selling or giving away the satellites.

production won't be helped by the fact that one of three factories producing them was levelled in that orbital strike against our nation, which we're still trying to clean up.

But as soon as we are ready, have no fear that you will be one of the first nations to receive some of the satellites.

On a slightly lighter note, did you ever receive that invitation to a meeting to coordinate the Earth's defenses? WE're still willing to host it. A reply would be appreciated.

For God, for Earth, for Humanity. May we continue to fight on.

"Where's that fire coming from!" Mills fired off another burst of autcannon rounds, shearing another tree in two. Directly behind him he heard the scream of another pair of HVSAMs acending, tracking in on a flyer. A burst of blue energy lanced into his arm, catching his attention. He twisted and let off a longer burst, the twenty-two millimeter rounds carving their way through the brush, trees and flesh alike.

The sniper's rifle roared again and his voice, ever so calm despite the chaos around him sounded cooly over the VoiceNet. "Bowie, aim twenty degrees right, there's a nest of 'em in that brush. In response, the vivid blue fire of the Heavy Plasma Cannon attached to his STARMOR tracked across the forest, coming to rest so its deadly touch lingered on the area pointed out by the sniper. A moment later and the ground around the plasma fire began exploding; grenades from Private Coreys' MORGREN.

"Where'd those bot-things go!" Franklin exclaimed as he washed starfire across the site where the things had been before. His own single HVSAM launcher fired, the STARMOR II AI having found a target of opportunity in an overflying fighter. A moment later he dove for cover, the fighter strafing the ground he had previously occupied.

Mills flicked an eyebrow and the comchannel switched over to a link with the Hawk's Beak. "Hey, we could use some air cover right about now!"

The pilot's voice came back almost immediately, perfectly calm. "Dont worry, Bravo Leader, the Cavs already on its way. Drop a tag, please, and we'll do the rest!"


Pacific Northwest, United States of America
Earth, Sol System
Assault Chopper Hawk's Beak

The Hawk's Beak had spent many years as a simple transport for diplomats and dignitaries, however its sleek lines and warhawk appearance, as well as the empty under-bays told a different story. For years before that, the Helicopter had served as an Anti-Armor Attack Chopper, flying both troops and ordinance into a battlezone and delivering both with pinpoint precision. The Nighthawk-class helicopter had proven itself over the years in so many roles that its pilots could confidently combat a starfighter and know they could win hands-down.

When the Psamtik had returned a month before the chaos had let loose, they had ferried down supplies to refit the bird. Now it was again a WarHawk, armed to the teeth and fully mission capable. Now, as it bore down on the combat zone, its advanced systems pinpointed the enemy fighters circling as vultures over the battlezone. Several more contemporary aircraft, what had to be 'modern' AH-64 Apache 'attack helicopters,' darted about, attempting to strike the enemies.

"I've got a lock on bogies one and three, clear to fire?"

"Clear to fire. Opening Ordinance Bay."

The underside of the bird split open, revealing the Ordinance bay, the hold for a fair majority of the aircraft's weapons.

"Bay doors confirmed locked. Releasing Ordinance. Fox One! Fox Two!"

A pair of missiles fell from the helicopter for a moment before streaking forward, their targets firmly in sight. A beacon appeared on the HUD for both crewmen, and the Pilot shifted course slightly to line up.

"New TAG objective confirmed. Prepping release of one Mark Five."

"Release of Mark Five Authorized, commence release when ready."

"Roger that, commenceing release."

A dark shape separated from the bay and then began guiding itself downward to the area tagged by the Bravo Soldiers. When it hit, it burst in a wave of fire and shrapnel tearing apart the target area. The helicopter continued forward for almost three kilometers before turning back. It still had plenty more missiles and bombs to deliver, but also had plenty more rounds in its nose cannon.

Roger that UKS Centurian. You're cleared for admittance into Samtonian waters. We'd suggest you move to one of the ports near Samtonia City. Maps of the current mine deployment will be sent to you immediately.

Samtonian Council of Thirteen

Samtonia receives abother messege from the President shortly after they sent the last one:

Well, damn. They tell me my jokes never go over well, and I see they're right. I'm not suggesting a sale at this time, especially not in a warzone like this. Besides, I think the Sentry System modficiation to our current Aegis Crusiers is sufficient.

As for that meeting co-ordinating Earth's Defenses, our communiations center has been as harried as the people trying to figure out exactly who the Hell is friendly, and who is not. Thereby, we would love to attend a meeting on the subject of Earth's Defense. I suggest we make it a neutral, seceret location, though, if you'll allow me to state the obvious.

Above Earth
"Ahh, missles every where, the shields wont hold, were gonna go down!" shouted a frantic sensor man aboard the Pyramid Class Cruiser. The captain then replied, "Everyone out, to the escape pods. Launch all the Repli-Fighters, send them to Earth Base, they should be fine there, but keep them cloaked, dont want to cause to much of a racket."

Within seconds the bridge was empty, with the exception of the captain, and fighters and escape pods were ejecting from the cruiser. The captain flipped on the emergency beacon, and stood at the helm, watching the the myriad of data over the computer screens. He watched as the countdown, ticking of his last seconds of life.

Impact. The sheilds deflected what they could, but they only held for seconds, as the generator overloaded and shut down. The cruiser expoloded in a massive cloud of energy and light. Many Repli-Fighters and escape pods could not get far enough away from the explosion. As space settled down, 80 cloaked Repli-Fighters commenced their decent, to Earth Base. Little did they know what was going on down there.

Such an sight, as well as the beacon, would not escape the sight of the three Hunter Destroyers, who had been orbiting earth for so long. They had been waiting for a target, and they had finally found it.

A Hunter Destroyer was not even comparable to the Cruiser, being only 200 meters in length, but it had a few tricks up it's sleeve.

(HDC1) "You boys see that, looks like we got us some prey."

(HDC2) "Hell yea, time for some fun."

(HDC3) "Been waiting a while for this."

(HDC1) "Ok, standard arc formation, in range in 15 minutes"

14 minutes later

(HDC3) "Hope everybodies tucked in and ready to jet."

(HDC2) "Missles armed"

(HDC1) "10 seconds"

(HDC3) "Everyone decloak, fire, and jet on my mark"

(HDC1) "Time to run and gun"

(HDC3) "3...2...1...MARK!"

OOC: HDC = Hunter Destroyer Captain

The three Hunter Destroyers decloaked and rapidly released their volley of FTL Destroyer Missles (v.1 & v.2) After firing their missles, they did not stick around to fight, they each opened up a wormhole and were gone as quick as they came.

The FTL Destroyer v.2 missles quickly accelerated beyond the speed of light, using a small warp drive. When they came out of it, they were mere feet from the hull of the larger dreadnought, using their hardened tips, and immense velocity to slice into the ship. Six of these were shot from each Hunter Destroyer, leading to eighteen all directed at the dreadnought.

The FTL Destroyer v.1 missles are very different. They use a wormhole drive to put them just a few feet from the target. To make up for the lack of velocity, a massive, anti-matter enriched, warhead is used. A shaped charge propels the warhead into the ship, leading to more penetration before the primary explosion. In place of warheads, some had a small compartment housing up to twenty-five replicator bugs. These bug would be dispersed throughout the ship, and would eat the ship, from the inside out, to the point of comprimising the hull, as well as transform any people they came into contact with into hybreds. Six of these were shot from each Hunter Destroyer, leading to eighteen all directed at the dreadnought. Two of the six were housing replicator bugs in place of a warhead, leading to six replicator housing compartments being launched at the dreadnought.

OOC: If sheilds, rephrase to hit shield. The first to hit would be the v.2 followed by the v.1 with warheads, and then the v.1 with housing compartments. The Hunter Destroyers were there since almost the beginning of the RP. You can go back many a page, to find the few posts were they are refered to. I will post the next part of the ground thing later, but I got to get to sleep, got to go to school tommorrow...

OOC: Since my missiles work a helluvalot like yours, my shields are built to withstand a bunch of 'em...But I'll write up exactly what happened later today....And Jingo...I do believe you just gave AO the window he needed.....
Well whaddya know. no new posts yet!

Earth Orbit
Sol System
GLF Dreadnought Psamtik

The C-Quad had cheered as the enemy ship was consumed in fire, their massive salvo tearing the starship to pieces. A number of fighters separated from the ship before it was destroyed entirely, a mistake from staggering the missiles so far apart. Captain Tanith supposed if she had ordered the salvo to have a lower time-delay between waves, they would have destroyed it for certain, with all hands. But then again, if all missiles struck within the same instant, while the shields would be overwhelmed at the same moment, it would still have blocked them all.

Hindsight, all of it. The ship was still destroyed, however, and that was the objective.

"Captain! Three cruisers are crossing the horizon! They're firing missiles!"

Susan turned to the Holo-Tank and watched as the missiles left the enemy ships. "Tell anti-fighter defenses to stand by, we'll cut 'em down before the-" She froze mid-sentence and a cold lump settled in her gut. A moment and the tactical officer confirmed her fears.

"Missiles have folded!"

She wasted no more time in her orders. "Get us underweigh, now!" They'd been caught the same way they caught the enemy ship, sitting fat and stupid, with its pants around its ankles. The massive Dreadnought struggled to respond to the commands from the helm, but inertia fought against her.

And then they simply ran out of time.

The shielding used onboard the ships extended through the levels of space surrounding the ship, protecting it from objects in Sidereal Space, SubSpace and Null-Space. The shield itself was divided into multiple panels, each one projected independent of the other, forming a sort of plated armor. With the overlap, it was impossible to sneak a hit between the panels, but it was enough that a hole would still present itself if a panel was taken offline.

Thanks to the maneuvering of the starship, albiet only slight given the amount of time they had, a number of the missiles splashed harmlessly across the shield panels, nowhere near enough force to punch a hole in the armor. A mass of missiles, however, struck at nearly the same instant on the same panel.

"Captain! We're losing panel Starboard Two-Bravo! One more hit and its gone!"

The massive starship actually jolted, a motion created by the explosive loss of the weakened panel and then shuddered as another missile hit. A third and final missile followed behind that, however its hit was much more gentle. A dud, hopefully.

"Damage report!"

The Engineering officer looked up from the scroll on his screen. "Captain, we've lost Starboard Two-Bravo's projector entirely-we'll need a team in there to replace the whole damned thing. Um....Heavy Rail Four's control has been gutted, three dead, twelve wounded. The missile strikes were all between frames Four and Five, decks three through six. Small fires dispersed throughout, picking up approximately ten personnel trapped in the damaged sections." Another line scrolled up on his screen and he growled. "We lost Flak postion Three-Charlie, all hands."

Captain Tanith sighed and sat back in her chair. "Glad they werent full-fold missiles, we'd be dead otherwise. Things could have gone much, much worse. Alright, assign damage control teams to get the wounded and trapped out of there, first priorty. Work on the fires too. If we can spare a team, get one working on replacing the generator. Whats the status on the Tempest?"

"Ahh, Ma'am, the Tempest isn't on scope. They've disappeared..."

"Bloody hell....talk about bad timing." As if to accentuate her words, an alarm started shrieking; not the alarm of a fire, nor general quarters, nor even the collision alarm. It was a much, much more dreaded note. A mechanical voice spoke calmly in response to the alarm over the ships intercom.

"Warning. Hostile Micro-entity detected. Initiating Karhaa Containment Protocol Level One. Warning. Hostile Micro-entity....."

OOC:
DUN dun DUUUUHNNNN!!!!
Okay, replicator bugs made it aboard the dreadnought, Containment protocols in effect. therefore the ship'll be a bit occupied for a while...the Tempest isn't even present at the moment....Sooooo....AO?

Ooc.
My last post to here. I think.
But I've been really busy now. As you can see, my last post is in Page 10.
So. I'll leave this battle for you. I'm just too busy RL.
Sorry.

OOC: (to BlackWolf) Indeed, I'll take the opportunity. And I thought the two platforms were controlled by a main unit, but oh well... :P Too lazy to change my earlier post, shall just make the changes here. To everyone else: I'm gonna hit BlackWolf, so people in the vicinity (CoreWorlds and Kormanthor), please don't think that I'm attacking you.

In the cockpit of the OGAT-X207 Blitz Gundam

Nichol watched the timer on his multi-function display fall by the seconds. He kept one gloved hand on the activation lever for the Mirage Colloid, ready to turn it on the moment he exited the N-Jammers' stealthy protection. He glanced at he coordinates of the target he was supposed to destroy. It was still heading towards the fleet.

The seconds ticked by. The timer hit zero, and Nichol pulled hard on the lever by reflex. A short tone sounded, and the words "MIRAGE COLLOID ACTIVATED" flashed across his helmet HUD. Instantly, the Mirage Colloid particles covered the Blitz, like a second skin. To an external observer, it would seem that the Blitz suddenly disappeared from sight. The Mirage Colloid had diffused all light around the Blitz, rendering it invisible. It also decreased the sensor signature of the Blitz to nearly zero. However, it came at a price. The Phase Shift Armour was disabled when Mirage Colloid was activated. Even so, Nichol did not mind this, for he was certain that no one could detect and fire upon him (OOC Note: Please do adhere to this if possible, and don't question me about the science since I'm no good at it, I'm just stating what it does as appears in Gundam SEED).

The Blitz flew towards the probe head-on. As it neared the target, Nichol turned on his magnification scope, and zoomed in on his target. It looked like a small satellite or a probe of sorts. He smiled and veered slightly to the right, such that he would fly past the probe.

Minutes later, as the probe flew past the Blitz, Nichol yanked on his control stick. The Blitz responded, and turned a full 180-degree turn. He set the aiming reticle over the rear end of the probe, and watched as the targeting reticule flashed a burning gold, the colour of target lock. He switched to launching the lancer darts, the only weapon system he could use without deactivating Mirage Colloid.

The Blitz raised its right arm, on which was mounted the "Trikeros" offence/defence system. Nichol pressed down on the firing studs, and the three lancer darts exited from the launcher on the arm at hypersonic speeds. Depending on kinetic energy alone, the three ferro-cadmium (OOC note: just a fictional metal :P) darts sliced through the probe, cutting through its small engine, and power source. The probe exploded, sending bits of metal in all directions. Nichol yanked on his control stick as he flew into the small explosion, dodging any shrapnel that came his way. He hit another button on a control panel, which sent a coded message back to the fleet reporting the successful completion of his task.

Soon, the centre multi-function display (MFD) flashed a warning. His power levels were decreasing rapidly due to the extensive usage of Mirage Colloid. Cursing, Nichol could do nothing but wait...

...Fortunately, he managed to slip back into the N-Jammer "cloud" of the fleet, and returned to the Seraphim just as his power went down.

Orbital Insertion Burn for Gobi Desert, China

"Sir! Message from the Blitz: Mission accomplished!"

Gryzlov nodded. The enemy would have been alerted to his presence after losing the probe. Still he had no choice.

"What's the distance to our target?"

"9000, Sir. ETA to extreme Lohengrin range, 2 minutes."

"Give me a countdown till we reach distance 7000, Commodore."

"But Admiral, that's within the range of the Lohengrins already! Shouldn't we strike from long range?"

"I want a visual of our target, proceed as per my orders."

"Right away, Sir," Commordore Natarle Badgiruel replied.

"Admiral! We've received hailings from the ship that we have previously discovered, as well as from an unknown source. The ship is identifed as the Devastator, while the other source..."

"...the other source does not appear on our sensors, Sir. We are attempting the triangulate the source's origin (OOC Note: This is Kormathor's space station)..."

Gryzlov, still at the sensor console, looked on. There were three blips on the scope, two of which were in his way as he proceeded to Earth, while the other was the Devastator. Then, another green triangle appeared in the third quadrant of the scope.

"That's it Sir, I think that's roughly where the message originate."

"Ignore the hailings, maintain radio silence."

"Admiral, we are in range! Calling up a visual of our target..."

The central vidscreen came to life, and showed two floating structures, framed by the blue-green planet behind.

"Zoom in."

The image seemed to leap out of the screen as they grew bigger and bigger. As the cameras closed in, Gryzlov caught sight of the words "Artemis" and "Athena" stencilled on the hulls of the two platforms.

"Impressive...and inspiring names. Too bad we have to destroy them..." Gryzlov murmured.

"Very well. Order to Archangel to fire at the second target, the Athena. Fire our Lohengrins at the Artemis! All units to battlestations, message the fleet to begin battle preparations. Deploy the Gottfrieds and the Valiants! All mobile suits are still not to launch yet, though. And, quickly, send an encrypted message to the Devastator. Inform them that we were present during the Bryce convention and are currently moving towards Earth to assist in the 'police action', request for their help in taking out the Natural's orbital defences, and forward our presence to Emperor Nihr Galaldu of Balrogga!"

The Dominion and the Archangel moved to the front of the fleet. The lower hatches on the "legs" of the two ships opened, to reveal one nasty looking barrel in each "leg", making the total four. The barrels of the cannons glowed, and the Lohengrin positron blaster cannons on each ship fired.

Four great, blue-red rays lanced out in the direction of the Artemis and the Athena orbital platforms. Gryzlov hoped to hell that they would hit...

However, due to the positronic interference, the N-Jammers on both ships were temporarily disabled. This made them appear on the sensor scopes of all ships in the region.

"Order the Seraphim and the Kusanagi to ready their Lohengrins as well!"

"Acknowledged!"

OOC again: Hope there's no god-modding or anything within my post... :D

"Sir, weapons fire reported!"

"What?"

"Sensors indicate that they're about to hit...the space stations Artemis and Athena!"

"Damn. What else?"

"Captain. Take a look at this." The holo-radar screen beeped as the Dominion became clear to all sensors, and another ship seemed to drop it's cloak, tagged Archangel.

"Two ships? Why didn't we see them before?"

"It seems when they fired, they had to drop their cloaks, like our special ships do."

"Sir." The comms officer said. "Encrypted message from the Dominion."

"Hmm." The captain said. "So there was a conference at Bryce's Star that the invaders made together...'Police action', my ass. It's a Force-damned invasion! Bring the ship to Red Alert. Notify the Emperor via the satellites and designate the ships as Sierra 1 and 2!"

"As ordered!"

The Emperor read the FLASH message from his Devastator and ordered the White Wolf to intercept.

"Fire a warning shot." The captain said. "Light turbolasers only."

A small green turbolaser shot out for the Dominion. It's not expected to cause much damage, but to command the ship to cease all actions.

All of the Sith trooper have been kill in the D.C. area.

Lord JWolf yells "That is for our fallen friends."

All the men start yelling "Yeah, your son of b%^#@s are die."

High Earth Orbit
Sol System
Orbital Defense Platform ARTEMIS

Commander Bartson had a Bad Feeling settling in his gut since the first odd contact was noticed by the sensor operator and it had been growing steadily stronger as time wore on. When the Psamtik began pulling away shouting of an Infestation and having to move to Containment Protocol Level One, the feeling had solidified into a beast gnawing at the lining of his stomach. When the probe disappeared, presumably destroyed, he began pacing the small deck beside his seat.

He had dispatched the squadron of fighters attached to his station when the Dreadnought began pulling away from Earth, ATHENA following his example with their own fighters. They patrolled the inside two klicks from the Platform, waiting for any enemies to attack the currently helpless station.

Bartson eyed the clock ticking in the corner of his Weapons Status Display; it still read an hour and fifty minutes until the Rearm operation was complete. The two SPCs and their crews worked themselves ragged attempting to load the new canisters into position, and the scene was mirrored aboard the equally frantic ATHENA.

"Sir!" The Specialist on sensor duty broke the Commander out of his reverie. "Energy Spike, heading One-One-Two by two-One-Niner!"

ATHENA hung in space, pristine despite the activity for a moment, and then erupted into a violent blaze. A large beam had punched its way through a Shield Panel, cutting into the System Patrol Craft currently reloading that section. The initial hit was substantial, but wouldn't have been enough to outright destroy the station, however, the containment on all sixty missiles carried failed in a chain reaction. The magazines that had been loaded followed, and then finally, the station Core gave up its primal energy in a burst of starfire, consuming the station.

The sister-platform, ARTEMIS, shook violently as well with a hit of its own, but held together. "They got an Overlap, sir! Both panels are fluctuating, suggest moving full-strength systems into position!"

"Make it so, and get DC on it! Bring us around to fire the Hard Cannon!"

"Sir! I've locked onto the enemy that fired upon us! Their shot cut away their ECM for a moment and its spool-up gave me a key to break it!"

Commander Bartson clapped his hands together. "Excellent! Fire Control, target contact, prepare to fire!"

"Aye-aye, sir!"

"Can you get us any more of those bastards, Specialist?" He asked.

"Negative, sir. They're each running their own pattern. They've got to fire to give us the Key, and if they change up the system too much, we'll lose 'em until I can fuzz around and reaccquire."

"Transmit what you're finding to BAST. I dont know how long we've got. Communicatoins!" He turned to the Sergeant manning the Commoboard. "Tell fighters to engage anything that comes outta that jammer-cloud to get at us, but to stay close!"

"Yessir!"

Fire Control piped up from their own console. "Target in Arc! Ready to fire!"

"Roger that....Fire Hard Cannon, one shot at designated target!"

The lights of the station dimmed and the soldiers in the Command Station could hear life-support duct fans spooling down, among other systems shutting off from the power drain. A hum grew from the center of the station outward, projecting itself into the very soul of every person aboard.

Outside the ship, the SPC crew could see a green aura gather around the edges of the central dish, which slowly flowed downward into the heart of the Emitter. The light faded, and all grew silent for a moment of eternity....

And then the universe burst with fire as the massive mixed kinetic and energy beam lanced out at the ATHENA's kille, the fury of a supernova contained in its heart.

Ooc.
My last post to here. I think.
But I've been really busy now. As you can see, my last post is in Page 10.
So. I'll leave this battle for you. I'm just too busy RL.
Sorry.
Damn. I might give up aswell as I am totaly confused and have no idea whats going on. Does someone want to TG me, a brief outline of, whats been going on?

OOC:
Okay, I gotta run off early...Jingo, I'm gonna be sending a couple wings of fighters to join the furball over your base. Consider them EnRoute right now....in the meantime, I've gotta get rollin, got some important stuff up.

Also, Containment Protocol One: Since I've had experience with Microorganizims that have a bad habit of taking over environments, I'm quite well equipped to handle the infestation aboard my ship..however....You've succeeded in your mission-you took it out of the fight, one way or another for now.

As for the Tempest...not sure where its gonna show up yet...

OOC: (to BlackWolf) Indeed, I'll take the opportunity. And I thought the two platforms were controlled by a main unit, but oh well... :P Too lazy to change my earlier post, shall just make the changes here. To everyone else: I'm gonna hit BlackWolf, so people in the vicinity (CoreWorlds and Kormanthor), please don't think that I'm attacking you.

In the cockpit of the OGAT-X207 Blitz Gundam

Nichol watched the timer on his multi-function display fall by the seconds. He kept one gloved hand on the activation lever for the Mirage Colloid, ready to turn it on the moment he exited the N-Jammers' stealthy protection. He glanced at he coordinates of the target he was supposed to destroy. It was still heading towards the fleet.

The seconds ticked by. The timer hit zero, and Nichol pulled hard on the lever by reflex. A short tone sounded, and the words "MIRAGE COLLOID ACTIVATED" flashed across his helmet HUD. Instantly, the Mirage Colloid particles covered the Blitz, like a second skin. To an external observer, it would seem that the Blitz suddenly disappeared from sight. The Mirage Colloid had diffused all light around the Blitz, rendering it invisible. It also decreased the sensor signature of the Blitz to nearly zero. However, it came at a price. The Phase Shift Armour was disabled when Mirage Colloid was activated. Even so, Nichol did not mind this, for he was certain that no one could detect and fire upon him (OOC Note: Please do adhere to this if possible, and don't question me about the science since I'm no good at it, I'm just stating what it does as appears in Gundam SEED).

The Blitz flew towards the probe head-on. As it neared the target, Nichol turned on his magnification scope, and zoomed in on his target. It looked like a small satellite or a probe of sorts. He smiled and veered slightly to the right, such that he would fly past the probe.

Minutes later, as the probe flew past the Blitz, Nichol yanked on his control stick. The Blitz responded, and turned a full 180-degree turn. He set the aiming reticle over the rear end of the probe, and watched as the targeting reticule flashed a burning gold, the colour of target lock. He switched to launching the lancer darts, the only weapon system he could use without deactivating Mirage Colloid.

The Blitz raised its right arm, on which was mounted the "Trikeros" offence/defence system. Nichol pressed down on the firing studs, and the three lancer darts exited from the launcher on the arm at hypersonic speeds. Depending on kinetic energy alone, the three ferro-cadmium (OOC note: just a fictional metal :P) darts sliced through the probe, cutting through its small engine, and power source. The probe exploded, sending bits of metal in all directions. Nichol yanked on his control stick as he flew into the small explosion, dodging any shrapnel that came his way. He hit another button on a control panel, which sent a coded message back to the fleet reporting the successful completion of his task.

Soon, the centre multi-function display (MFD) flashed a warning. His power levels were decreasing rapidly due to the extensive usage of Mirage Colloid. Cursing, Nichol could do nothing but wait...

...Fortunately, he managed to slip back into the N-Jammer "cloud" of the fleet, and returned to the Seraphim just as his power went down.

On board the Dominion
Still on the Orbital Insertion Burn

"We have it on our sensors, Sir!" exclaimed Petty Officer Second Class Argyle.

"One big target, distance 15000, Green, Gamma! Warbook puts the main target as space-station class. There appears to be two other targets nearby, Admiral, possible sub-units."

"Interesting. The Naturals actually have space stations..." Gryzlov murmured.

"Commodore, how long more till we are within Lohengrin range of the taget?"

"Not at least till the distance closes to 8000, Admiral." Badgiruel replied.

"Admiral! We've got two new contacts on our scope! One small, probe-class, and the other bears a similar signature to one of those ships which the Silverwind recorded in Bryce!" (OOC note: That's the ISD, Coreworlds, you were at the meeting with Balrogga and all, no?)

"A probe, and...a large ship, you say? Let me see."

Gryzlov floated over again to the sensor operator's station. On the screen, the major target was highlighted with a big, flashing green triangle. One small blip appeared to have moved from the flashing triangle, while the other was coming in from the side.

"That big one...it could be our allies. But we cannot risk compromising our location until we can destroy that Natural orbital emplacement, yet we also have to destroy the probe!" Gryzlov thought.

"Maintain radio silence. All communications are not to be attempted unless its extremely secure, and absolutely necessary," he ordered. Then, as he stroked his chin, an idea came to him.

"Commodore! Message the Seraphim, secure. Order Lieutenant Amarfi to launch in the Blitz, and destroy the enemy probe. We will give him the coordinates of the probe. The Blitz is to return imeediately after this mission."

"Yessir!" she replied, and got down to work at her own station in the CIC.

On board the Seraphim
Main Hangar

Sirens blared softly, as the sleek-looking, metal-grey OGAT-X207 Blitz Gundam was lifted onto the linear catapult launcher. The lights reflected off its armour a little, making it appear to glow within the confines of the hangar.

Lieutenant Nichol Amarfim tapped a button on his helmet. Instantly, the visor slid down, and became transparent to offer him better vision. He tapped a few buttons around his cockpit, and ran thorugh the launch checklist.

"Blitz is good to go," he finally reported.

"Roger, you are clear for launch in 5...4...3...2...1...GO!"

Nichol was thrown slightly forward, as the linear catapult launcher threw the Blitz forward using magnetic force. The hangar doors of the Seraphim had opened by then, and the Blitz was propelled into space.

A transmission came by, and flashed on one of his multi-function displays. One had the coordinates of the target he was supposed to destroy, and the other, the extreme limits of the N-Jammer 'cloud". Nichol would have to activate the Mirage Colloid System before he got out of the "cloud".

First things first though. Nichol hit the buttoned marked "PHASE SHIFT ON". Immediately, a layer of colour spread all over the metal-grey body of the Blitz Gundam, rendering it in a fearsome colour scheme of black, gold, and red trim. That completed the activation of the Phase Shift Armour, which was found on both Gundams, and the capital ships of the ZAFT forces.

OOC: If anyone, especially BlackWolf, wants a picture of the Blitz, you can TG me and I'll arrange for ways to have you see it. :D By the way, can I destroy the probe, BlackWolf? :D

Oh, and by the way...

My fleet has N-Jammers, which supposedly disrupts neutron emissions, and also thus renders opposing sensors unable to detect anything within the range of the Jammers...so...it shouldn't be that easy for your ISD to detect my fleet. So...yea.



Ekhodas StarBase

Cloaked in Earth Orbit


* Attention Dominion, This is Admiral Montgomery Acott on board Ekhodas
StarBase. We have your ship targeted, we will not take the destruction or
attempted destruction of a allied space station without an immediate retal. *


Ekhodas StarBase

Decloak/Raise Primary
and Secondary Plasma
Shielding & Activating
all weapons.


Suddenly and without anymore warnings a huge starbase ( dimensions
are fifty miles in diameter at the base & sixty miles height ) at the center of
the superstructure. The base resembles a huge metal castle
sitting on a saucer-like base. The outer hull bristling with Turbo Laser
emplacements, phaser emitters, anti-matter missile launchers, disrupter
cannons, quantum photon torpedo launchers & railguns.
The main body resembles a huge metal castle sitting on a saucer-like base & is surrounded by eight twenty five mile high/three mile wide towers with huge rotating railgun emplacements.
The hull is more rounded then the walls of an actual castle would have & reflects sunlight to a point of being blinding. mooth hull. All of which
the glow of powered weapon systems.

* Dominion we say again, we will not tolerate any attempt to attack our allies or ourselves.

The captain whistled at the size of the space station and decided to make a note: Do not anger the nation of Kormanthor.

"As you can see, Dominion and Archangel, you will lose if you don't disengage. We will all attack, and you will die, it's as simple as that."

Earth Base
(RFP1) "We got missles inbound, take evasive actions, power the shields"

(RFP2) "Following your lead"

(RFP3) "Same here"

(RFP3) "Can't shake em, they're gonna hit!"

(RFP1) "Hold on, I'll be there as soon as I..."

Loud explosions filled the comm, silencing the chatter. The first Repli-Fighter ws side-swiped by one of the missles, but the shields held. The third took direct hits from two missles, destroying the shields, and damaging the craft, but the pilot managed to keep it in the air.

(RFP2) "Time to get some revenge, close in on my lead"

(RFP1) "Confirmed, moving in"

(RFP3) "I'm beat up pretty bad, but I'll try to hang in formation"

(RFP2) "Targets aquired, preparing to engage"

(RFP1) "Fire!"

Each of the Repli-fighters fired a powerful blast from their shock cannon directed towards each helicopter. The Repli-fighters then unleashed volleys of rapid laser fire.

(RFP3) (Muffled explosion sound) "Aghh I'm losing control. I'm going down hard AGHHHH....."

The comm link went dead as the Repli-fighter did a nose dive into the ground, causing a massive explosion. The pilot surely died in the crash.

The Dreadnought
The replicators behaved normally in this kind of situation. They tunneled deep into the walls and ceilings, eating every metal object they came across. Their main objective was, of course, to replicate. Every bug focused on replicating, if this continued, with proper resources, their numbers would double about every eight and a half minutes. They would continue to spread and replicate, as well as turning any humans they came across into hybreds.

OOC: to Kormathor: lol, no fair! My Gundams don't have such a high level of technology. :P To BlackWolf: Where's the Hard Cannon aimed at and what is it? A beam weapon? And...am I right to assume that Artemis was destroyed, and Athena damaged? :) To CoreWorlds: Darn, I though you were a fellow invader! Looks like I didn't read the posts well enough :P To the other invaders: Help me! LOL! :D

Sorreh for asking so many questions. :D

OOC
Other way around AO. ARTEMIS is shaken up, ATHENA was destroyed.
The Hard Cannon:
I'm not sure on the physics of it all yet, since I'm still writing up the weapon's capabilities (Hey, gimmie a break! These things take time!), but what I can tell you about it:
It IS a type of beam, but there's also a kinetic element in it-the thing'll feel akin to a warhammer striking a guy on the head, proportionally, that is. Since I'm somewhere near GundamTech with a few advances above and some things behind, the best likeness for it would be akin to describing it as Wing Zero's Big Gun on Super-Crack. Its no "Death Star Superlaser" but it'd carve a nice chunk out of, say, the American East Coast with a single shot.

Then again, I'm good for only about five shots, and they're not very rapid, either.
As for aiming? The ship that shot and killed ATHENA.

A note for Jingo: I'll have some postage up soon (read, today or tomorrow), including the escalation of Containment Protocols up to the point of eventually solving the Bug Problem. Thank goodness for prior knowledge in dealing with hostile microorganisims. (The Karhaa storyarc, which is the entire reason the Order exists in the first place)

OOC: Just read that post. Why burrowing?

IC: Lucifer was survaying the progress of the slaves. Poor, was his final thought before being flung into the air. He hit the ground, knocking the air out of him. The hell was that?! He thought as he got to his feet, seeing a writhing drill.
"Oh crap." He ran to the nerest trench and flung himself in it. He rounded up the nerest Sons and looked out of the trench.......

Ekhodas to ARTEMIS we are witness to the destruction of ATHENA,
& stand ready to retal on your behalf, all you need do is give the green
light sense it was your station that was destroyed.
Otherwise we are also ready to render techical assistance to rebuild
ATHENA and upgrade both platforms at no cost to your country. We are
wiling to do this to guarantee the safety of Earth from further attack.

[OOC]: Sorry I haven't been posting lately. I lost track of the RP for a while, and when I got back, I couldn't convince anyone to at least give me a quick summary of what's going on. So, i'm afraid, unless someone can give me some sort of information about what's going on, this is me saying i'm leaving the thread. Please note, this means that my forces have officially left Earth orbit for Mercury to join the rest of the Orbitals. If someone is nice enough to give a summary, then i'll simply turn around and i'll send them in to help in full force.

Well, damn. They tell me my jokes never go over well, and I see they're right. I'm not suggesting a sale at this time, especially not in a warzone like this. Besides, I think the Sentry System modficiation to our current Aegis Crusiers is sufficient.

As for that meeting co-ordinating Earth's Defenses, our communiations center has been as harried as the people trying to figure out exactly who the Hell is friendly, and who is not. Thereby, we would love to attend a meeting on the subject of Earth's Defense. I suggest we make it a neutral, seceret location, though, if you'll allow me to state the obvious.

And they say that we have no senses of humor, so the Council will have to prove them wrong some time in the near future.

Of course it will be neutral and secret, as pardon the French, but we aren't that backwards.

Couriers will be sent to your leadership, as well as other countries, to attempt to get people to show up. We look forward to more communication.

AYIEE! My bad Rinceweed! I think I lost your request back a few pages :P

Quickie Recap.
Coreworlds' forces turned out to be rouges, and wolf, who switched sides joined up to track down and destroy 'em. In the meantime, the US had been invaded, and a fair number of cities are nuked/destroyed. Up in the Pacific Northewst, Jingo's wormholed in an infiltration camp, which is currently under attack by around a dozen US GIs, 8 STARMOR II units, and who knows how many Apache Helicopters, and then the Hawk's Beak, my own FutureTech chopper.

I shot up Anime-Otakus' attempt to build a base on the Dark Side of the moon with a nasty missile barrage, and then launched another missile-attack on Jingo's pyramid ship thingy in geosync orbit over his little infiltration base...
Then Jingo missiled me with a couple cruisers, catching me with my pants down. And then A-O blasted ATHENA and now is working on taking out ARTEMIS. Approximately 80 fighters survived the missile attack on Jingo's pyramid and are headed towards the surface..

My own dreadnought is outta the fight for now, dealing with an infestation, the Tempest is MIA, and Koromanthor has been handing out tech like party favors. Forces are gathering at Balroga's Space Tower thingy, dont remember if they're friendly or invaders....And..uh....Oh yeah, the stuff in Egypt has been cleaned out.

Did I miss anything yet? (aside from a side-invasion of..finland?)

[OOC]: Blackwolf, you Sir are a lifesaver. Many thanks to 'ye. I'll be posting RP again soon. A warning to all invaders, this time, i'm bringing everything I have.

Every. Godamn. Orbital.

Every. Godamn. Ship.

"Staus on the infestation, please?"

The Commander manning the Systems Engineering board frowned at his captain. "Not good, Ma'am. These things are definately nano-machines, they're chewing through bulkheads, wiring, damn near anything that they come across. We've also reports of them 'infesting' several of our crew...Security was forced to put them down. "

"And how are they faring against the...bugs?"

"The STARMOR II is damn near impervious to 'em. They can still chew through it, but it takes them so long to get even a little bit of a gouge that they can be cleaned off by the other units. And once the Suit-Nanos are stirred, well, they're repairing things almost as fast as they can get chewed."

Tanith nodded and tapped a button to scroll through the reports still scrolling in. "So Security is safe. What is their assessment?"

The Commander's voice grew uncomfortable and she could hear him behind her, shifting in his seat. "Well, uh, Captain, they're suggesting escalation to to Level Five or even Six. Their most pessimistic members say Level Seven."

Susan chewed on her stylus for a moment, lost in thought. Level Five was dangerous-releasing a counter-nano system into the section of the ship was risky, particularally when the risk of accidental corruption of a handful of nanos was as great as it was now. They could be controlled, but they were still dangerous to the ship if they got out of hand.

Level Six was not much better, as an energy field would be released through that section of the ship. It would kill any biologic in the Module, and would disable, shut down, or outright destroy any electronic system. Any people trapped in the wreckage would be killed by the field...but then again, they were already likely to have been...assimilated by the..bugs. It would take a short time, but control routes could be re-established by damage control teams and have the Module back online...but it was still a crippling option.

Finally, Level Seven. It was even less desirable than Six, but still moreso than the Final Solution-scuttling the ship. Level Seven Protocol took advantage of the modular design of the ships, partially inspired by mission adaptability, partially by the Karhaa infestations. Level Seven declared, the affected section would be sealed off by both solid bulkheads and energy shields. The section would then be jettisoned and destroyed. The loss of the Module would cripple the ship, leaving it without a firing sector as well as permanantly costing the craft of one or two shielding Panels. Furthermore, there was no armor between the sections-the exposed interior of the ship would be a soft flesh for the enemy to sink a knife into.

Seven was, like the Final Solution, undesirable at best.

"These bugs eat everything sent at them. I want you to escalate to Level Six, and prepare for Protocol Seven; the moment Security is out, seal the place up with the shields and the blast doors," she said finally, setting her hand in her lap.

She only hoped she had made the right decision.

"Do we have a status on the Tempest yet?"

"Negative, Admiral. General Kaerion's not reported in yet."

Admiral Naismith let out a sigh and opened the Surface Display option on the Tank in front of him. "Alright...Status on the Psamtik?"

The technician was silent for a moment before speaking, having to dig out the report. "Well, sir, they're working to contain the Infestation, but they've escalated to Protocol Six. They're also preparing to activate Seven..."

"Damn! I don't envy Captain Tanith. Six and Seven are quite poor options to choose from." Using his Command Stylus, he highlighted a section of the Earth and the tank reacted, magnifying it for him. "Do we have an ETA on the fighter wings sent after those fighters evac-ing to the surface from the ship we destroyed? And anything from ARTEMIS"

"Uh, the fighters will arrive approximately one-point-two minutes behind the enemy fighters, we'll outnumber them by about a squadron or two. With the ground support from the STARMOR II and the Hawk's Beak, and whatever the Americans scrape together, we'll be able to take them down."

"And the ARTEMIS?"

"Nothing, Admiral. They've fired their Hard Cannon, and we've heard nothing since. They've got four more shots, and then the station is dead in the water. The enemy fleet attacking them is still approaching as well."

Naismith shook his head and watched the main display as the forces moved across, minute chess-pieces in an overly large and elaborate game of life or death. "...surrounded from all sides, we defend ourselves best we can. And yet, that will not be enough. Prepare the ground defenses. We are forced to engage them on the ground, unless a miracle holds the Orbitals."

((Next on AS THE WORLD BURNS! Will the valiant crew of the Psamtik drive off the flood of hungry bug-machines? Where is theTempest? How will the furball and ground battle in North America end? Will ARTEMIS hold? Will the Orbitals be lost?
And who the hell came up with this scrpit?!!!!
All these questions, and more, answered in the next....AS THE WORLD BURNS!
....Er, maybe, anyway.))

Emperor Andrew Masaki scans the planet Earth with the Force. "Hmm. I sense several disturbances. One in the Washington area, and another on the northern part of the African continent and the Middle East, and a final one in Finland. Combined with the report from the Devastator and White Wolf, I can deduce that the Invaders are collaborating together to take Earth."

"Very well, Emperor. What should we do, then?"

"Find out what's what with the Washington area. Active-scan the northeastern quadrant of Africa. And finally, contact the government of Finland and ask if they need help."

"Yes sir." Several dropships full of Marines were sent to the forest area of Washington State, and scoped out the blue wormholes. The Super Star Destroyer began to ping the African continent for what should not be there, using all available sensors, from full-spectrum EM to gravimetric and mass scanners. And a message was sent to the Finland government, asking if they request any aid.

The cloaked Repli-fighters descended from the heavens, nearing Earth Base. Some where slightly damaged, but most seemed fine. They were completly unaware of what was taking place on the ground.

(RFP) "Hello, Major Jackson. This is the lead of a squadron of Repli-Fighters heading towards your position..."

(M. Jackson) "Excellent, with your help we should be able to hold out for a while"

(RFP) "Huh, whats going on down there?"

(M. Jackson) "We were attacked, we have definetly made too much noise down here. If I see any signs of reinforcements on their part, then I'm gonna have to call for an evacuation."

(RFP) "We're on are way down, we'll help you clean up the earthlings"

The Repli-Fighters joined the others, in gunning down any hostile they saw.

[OOC]: Sorry I haven't been posting lately. I lost track of the RP for a while, and when I got back, I couldn't convince anyone to at least give me a quick summary of what's going on. So, i'm afraid, unless someone can give me some sort of information about what's going on, this is me saying i'm leaving the thread. Please note, this means that my forces have officially left Earth orbit for Mercury to join the rest of the Orbitals. If someone is nice enough to give a summary, then i'll simply turn around and i'll send them in to help in full force.


OCC: Rinceweed the jist of it is that I ran the invaders off with my starships once and now they are back trying to convince the defenders
that they are on our side. They are planning to sucker punch us so to speak
if we fall for their lies. Turn your ships around Rince, earth needs all the defenders if can get.

AYIEE! My bad Rinceweed! I think I lost your request back a few pages :P

Quickie Recap.
Coreworlds' forces turned out to be rouges, and wolf, who switched sides joined up to track down and destroy 'em. In the meantime, the US had been invaded, and a fair number of cities are nuked/destroyed. Up in the Pacific Northewst, Jingo's wormholed in an infiltration camp, which is currently under attack by around a dozen US GIs, 8 STARMOR II units, and who knows how many Apache Helicopters, and then the Hawk's Beak, my own FutureTech chopper.

I shot up Anime-Otakus' attempt to build a base on the Dark Side of the moon with a nasty missile barrage, and then launched another missile-attack on Jingo's pyramid ship thingy in geosync orbit over his little infiltration base...
Then Jingo missiled me with a couple cruisers, catching me with my pants down. And then A-O blasted ATHENA and now is working on taking out ARTEMIS. Approximately 80 fighters survived the missile attack on Jingo's pyramid and are headed towards the surface..

My own dreadnought is outta the fight for now, dealing with an infestation, the Tempest is MIA, and Koromanthor has been handing out tech like party favors. Forces are gathering at Balroga's Space Tower thingy, dont remember if they're friendly or invaders....And..uh....Oh yeah, the stuff in Egypt has been cleaned out.

Did I miss anything yet? (aside from a side-invasion of..finland?)

Yea, what he said ;)

On board the Dominion
2500 kilometres away from the ARTEMIS

As soon as the Lohengrins were fired, Gryzlov ordered, "Archangel, Dominion! Take evasive action! Fire the anti-beam depth charges to block any enemy beam attacks! The rest of the fleet, break! I repeat, break and take tactical spacing!"

The entire 19-ship fleet spread themselves wide...the Archangel and the Dominion opened their missile ports, and launched several anti-beam depth charges, forming a protective shield which would neutralise any beam attacks. Of course, both ships could not utilise their beam weapons as well.

"Sir! We are detecting a spike in EM levels..."

A large beam cut through the endless void of space...and directly at Gryzlov's fleet. The beam hit the spot where the Archangel was moments ago, but part of the beam managed to hit to port flank of the ship. Despite having its power cut down by the anti-beam depth charges, the ship tore a huge hole through the Archangel, instantly causing a depressurization of the rear deck. Several technicians were immediately sucked out into space.

There was worse to come. The main portion of the beam cut unabated through the fleet...and expended the rest of its energy on the Laurasia-class frigate Ziegler, which was damaged in a previous missile attack. The Ziegler's Phase Shift Armour absorbed as much damage as it could, but the beam was spot-on. It pierced the ship through and through, instantly vaporizing the crew within, and causing the ship to blossom in a cloud of nuclear fire as its reators exploded.

"Admiral! The Archangel's been hit! Heavy damage! Reports coming in...Sir! We've lost the Ziegler!"

"Oh...goodness...such...power...Move the Archangel to the rear guard, among our N-Jammers! Have the [i]Menelaos render assistance. How long more till our N-Jammers can come back online?"

"Sir, either we move out of the area, or in one and a half hours' time!"

Gryzlov punched a button on his command couch.

"Sergeant Major Murdoch! What's the status of our power systems?"

"We can restore nominal power in 30 minutes, Sir! If you divert power from other subsystems, we can begin to move in under one hour!"

Just then, a green, coherent beam of light cut across the ships from the right.

"Admiral! We are being hailed by a pop-up contact! Looks like another Natural orbital forces!" came one report.

"We are being fired upon by the Devastator!"

"WHAT? Oh no, what have I done?" Gryzlov cursed, slamming his fist down on the armrest.

"We must somehow get to our allies and request for assistance!"

Gryzlov thought for a moment.

"Order the Kusanagi and the Seraphim to move up, and bracket us and the Archangel with their N-Jammers. Switch frequencies, and use heavy encryption. Check to see if we can be towed out of this area, or use our attitude thrusters to do the job. As for the rest of the ships, have them recalibrate their N-Jammers, make sure the enemy has no chance of breaking our systems. Captain Le Creuset is in charge of the other ships. Have them break away from our 4 ships, and move heading zero-five-zero, distance 2000. Deploy their onboard complement for defence. Get the Kusanagi to deploy her Astrays."

"Acknowledged!"

"Admiral! Multiple contacts, from the Devastator! Fighter-class!" (OOC note: CoreWorlds, those are your X-Wings)

"Oh? Have our Gundams deployed as backup, make sure those fighters don't get too close...We're sitting ducks right now."

The fleet now broke into two parts of 15 and 4. Under cover of the N-Jammers, the smaller ships moved ahead and to the right of the Dominion. Ten red-and-white painted mobile suits, the MBF-M1 M1 Astrays, departed from the centreline linear catapult launcher of the Kusanagi, and took up patrol positions around the 4 capital ships.

OOC: Hope this is okay with all parties involved.
Losses:
Ziegler destroyed
600 dead
200 MAW-01 Mistral destroyed.
10 AOGMF-600 GuAIZ destroyed (Ziegler's complement)
