The combined forces of Klington and the Core Worlds Rebels were going to try and defeat the enemy. Admiral Tasak had ordered the fleet of fighters and ships to form an arc, and move in slowly towards the enemy. The enemy didnt realize that there was 2 small fleets hiding behind the planet of Kyoto, waiting to be called into battle. The Admiral saw that the fleet was getting closer to the enemy, as soon as they were in weapons range the Admiral gave the orders to stop, and open fire...

Hozgarth was a little suspicious aboput the lack of hypersapce trails leading out of the system but he continued forward and put all outputs to shields to a maximum. Kyoto was now coming up fast an dstill no sign of Klington. What was going on he ponderd as he edged ever closer before stopping about 250,000 clicks short. He ponderd his next move

The Admiral Told The Fleet, "Move in closer!" As the fleet got a coulpe thousand kilometers away, the Admiral ordered the two fleets hiding behind the planet to "Move out!" And with that the two fleets used the gravity of Kyoto to slingshot themselves around the planet and enclosed in on the other sides of the enemy fleet, with that the enemy was surrounded.

All ships. Activate plan Delta Echo. Engage all three fleets as three sepperate entitys. The main Klington fleet is mine. The fleet split into three battle groups on this command. Manouvering space was tight but the operation was sucesfull. The fighters launched and all ships began letting off broadsides at the enemy fleets. Turblolaser and ion cannon fire flew everywhere as the fleets engaged. flashes in space appeared left right and center. The idea would be to punch a hole in one of th fleets and retreat hopefully luring the enemy into a trap of their own....

The Admiral smiled at the reply from their enemys, he then told his private, "Prepare the EMP torpedos." With that he went down to the Assembly Room, and began to address the troops. "We will move some of you out tonight, your mission will be to attack the ships from the inside out, you will be provided with a cyanide pill, to make sure the enemy doesnt discover the location of our homeworld. We will send out a droid team to secure the area before you our sent in. Good Luck." With that he walked back to the bridge and ordered the firing of the EMPs, he saw them hit the shields of many enemy vessels, and huge electric bolts shoot from the impact, then he watched to see the results..."

"Sir, ships shields failing all over the place what do you wish us to do" "get the back up again as soon as possible. Continue firing. We arent gonners yet I want them destroyed" "Yes Admiral, we shall be victorious" The fleet continued along her way. The Palpatines shields had been dropped enough for a boarding party to get aboard but any attempt on a Super Star Destroyer with 25 full garrisons of stormtroopers on it was mere suicide. Hozgarth again saw the bright flashes of full broadsides going off again and again and again. They would be victorious thsi day.

The Admiral had stared out into space. He started laugh without control, "HAHAHAAHAHAAHHHHHAHAHAA! I KNOW HOW TO DESTROY IT! I KNOW, I KNOW! HAHAHAHAHAHA! DIE, DIE, DIE! AHAHAHAHAHAA!"
Then he pointed at the private, "C'mere you!" and began to give the shorter soldier a nuggie, "Do this for me my unenlightned friend. Take about 50 of our fighters, have them fly through all the enemy shots and shoot at the that little tower sticking out of the ship, then when they near it to crash into the tower, Until it explodes. HAHAHA! YOU FOOLS!" And with that a small group of 50 fighters began to weave in and out of the incoming blasts, shooting at the bridge, as they neared they had lost 37 of the other fighters, but hadnt lost too many do to the distraction the other ships were causing. The fighters began to close in on the bridge...
I lost 2 Capital ships and the rest are damaged.
And I lost around 500 Fighters.

"Full power to the forward deflector shield Full power to the...." The fighters hit their tagrgets with pinpoint accuracy. First, the defelctor generator for the rbidge was hit then, the other fighters collided with the control tower severly damaging the Palpatines control functions. Then a blue flicker went accross the bridge as he shields came back up. She was drifing but still battle operational. Hozgarth and the rest of the bridge crew had been knocked back by the impacts.

"Damage report!"

"Sir, directional thruster and engine control down. Minimal shielding. Weapons still operable"

"Target one of their lead cruisers, all ships, concentrate all firepower on their lead cruiser"

The order went out and the broadsides of several vessels in the fleet lit up.

2 star destroyers went up in hail of flame as their bridges were hit by lasers and missiles. They began to drift before exploding in a ball flame.

Hozgarth would have a victory and the Palpatine would be salvaged and battle operational within a year. It was only her engines that were down not her firing or defence capabilities... a few hunderd ore fighters and bombers errupted in minute balls of flame.

Hozgarth orderd the fighter craft to enage all enemy fighters and concentarte on dog fighting. That little trick would not happen again.

The Admiral Tasak was thinking about the battle when a ship next to him lost its control functions from the bombardment to its bridge. The Admiral ordered the ships shields to go to 50% power, he flew the ship straight towards the enemy SSD, and pushed it out into space. He thought to himself, "You'll live for this, I want to fight you again one day." Then he kept the other enemy ships from turning on their gravity wells, by threating to push the SSD back at them, the ship was taking damage so he had to quickly escape, they hopped into hyperdrive after giving this order to the crippeled ship, "Fire the Black Hole Bombs into the enemy fleet, but do not hit the enemy SSD!" As they left the battle, a few black holes opened up in the middle of the enemy fleet, and the crippled Klington Ship crashed into it.

The fleet immediately took evasive manouvers. Hozgarth knew he had been spared. But for what reason he did not Know. Another 5 ISD's and 750 fighters were lost to the blackholes. The rtest suffering minot to major damage. The repair crews had got the engines on the Palpatine working again. "Helm, take us and the fleet home. We shall fight them again another day"


Yes sir came the unanamous reply as the fleet limped home. It was a victory but, a costly one. Hozgarth and the fleet would not let the enemy be so lucky next time.
