OOC: I have to go to bed in a few minutes. I only have time to do this one post. I'll continue tomorrow.

H.S.S. Huntaer floated out of the holographic space docks. It's "crew" was battle ready, anxious for their first battle. The ship then detects it's on coming prey, Siesatia. H.S.S. Huntaer raises their shields, and activated their guns. Tiny Tie Defenders could be seen coming out of the docking bay of the new Huntaer Star Destroyer.

"Ok, mister. It's your turn to move your ship." Lord Aelikes stated.

The Holographic projecter ship sat before the holographic Huntaer vessel. Inside, 175 members of the Siesatian Space Naval Academy sat in waiting, all hooked up to Neural Interfaces, that in turn, were linked to a supercomputer. They would be the crew of the holographic ship, performing the duties that they would onboard a real ship, the ship was set to have loss of air pressure, blowouts, explosions, there were limitless ways to be 'killed' onboard the Holo vessel.

The ship powered up its projectors, all 400 of them, that surrounded 99.9% of the ships hull began to glow, and a moment later, the representation of the Devastator Class anti capital ship was floating 50 Kilometres away. The holographic representations of the crew began their duties, aware that they would be representing the new generation of Siesatian cadets. The Cadet Captain, was Redfield, one of the brightest in the academy.

The Signal to start was sent to both ships simultaniously. The Devastator began the routine attack pattern, firing only 2 conventional torpedoes at the oncoming ties, it began to make an obvious move towards the Huntaer vessel, before cloaking, shrouding itself into the layer that seperated the 3rd and 4th dimension. It no longer registered on any conventional sensor, and began to move, not towards the bow, as it had looked before, but towards the hanger, sensors began to taking in every inch of the hull. The wet nosed cadet captain had a plan.

Bump for Huntaer

H.S.S. Huntaer glides tword the oncoming enemy ship. It's weapons are charged, Tie's ready to go. The only thing Aelikes has left to do is wait for his young cadets to prove themselfs worthy in the eyes of the emperor.

Cadet-Captain Hirotik stands upon the command deck of the Huntaer star destroyer. His hands folded behind his back, he has been in the Dark Academy for over 600 years, it was finnaly his turn to take the test. I guess we'll make the first move. "Commander, set status to battle aleart. Release Tie Interceptor squadrons 4 and 5 from their docking positions. Then launch the Tie Hunter Squadrons 2 and 3 from their docking positions. Lieutenant, charge up the main guns. Seargent, I want all Troop Transports ready for boarding action. I also want several other troops to remain on Huntaer.

"Wait sir! We're not makeing the first move at all! They have just destroyed one of the first tie waves we sent out! and went into cloak!"

"What?? Helm come about! Wait for the ship to reapear from cloak! They'll have their shields down once they're cloaked!"

(OOC: Assuming you are useing the normal type of cloaks. Most cloaking tech causes the shields to go down, but they are invisible. That was the thing that evened the tech.
BTW, Huntarians are kind of like elfs in a sence. They can live forever, but they can die in combat, they also use the force too, but not in this case.)

Bump for Siesatia.

OOC: I think you missed the last bit, we made the first move...

IC:
The Devastator moved silently towards the hanger deck, it was very close now. The cloak was still working at full efficiency. The captain looked over the scans of the hanger. "Perfect." he said to himself, and he ordered the ship to be ready to carry out his plan on his order.

The large vessel before them let loose a bunch of ties, but the devistator did not attack, its cloak was working perfectly, as was expected.
"Ready?" He ordered,
"Yessir."
"Fire, 12 vollys!!"

The Devastators cloak failed and an instant later, 36 torpedoes flew into the expansive hanger of the craft...
"Lets see how their fighters land now!" he said, and began to fly the Devastator from the large vessel, it was now vissible, but if the plan had worked, it wouldn't matter for long...

OOC: Yeah, I did kindof missed that. But ironicly, I I changed the post while you posted yours. Another thing, it takes time to fire a volly of torpeatoes after a ship cloakes. Even on both Star Trek and Star Wars. There is usually a couple of seconds delay before a fighter or capital ship could fire again.


IC: With nearly half a millenium of experience, most of the fighters predicted the oncomming attack. It is as old as cloaking is itself. However, several fighters were destroyed, but most of the experienced one were able to shoot down the oncomming torpeatoes. Cadet-Captain Hirotik looked at the stats of the remaining ties. 63 out of 72. Damn, OK then, we shall use our other surprises. "Helm, come about to the starboard side of the devistator! Lieutenant Comander Maison, order a volly of 6 concusion missles, then fire the Ion cannons right at their bridge to disable their ship for boarding action!"

"Aye sir!"

Huntaer then turns tword it's prey. Suddenly, 18 concussion missles headed tword the devistator. Then, bright whitish-blueish lights fired up from the side of Huntaer. The ion cannons fired upon their nemesis.
Hopefully this will work... If not, I still have a few surprises left Aelikes didn't teach us...

OOC: I don't think you understood the concept of the attack, it is kinda hard to put into words... My ship, decloaked right next to the hanger opening, and fired torpedoes into the actual hanger, not just at it. Effectively gutting a vessel. As to the decloaking, yes, but that is only if the torpedoes are energy torpedoes, I use Torpedoe Casings. The only reason I couldn't fire them whilst cloaked, was that technicaly, the ship didn't excist in the same dimension as yours. I don't use Star Wars, or Star Trek, 99.9% of all my tech is Siesatian, which, once I get my book published, will belong to me... MWAHAHAHAHA

OOC: Interestinc. You still face the vollies of concussion missles, and ion cannons, headed tword your ship.

Im just interested in finding out how your ship escaped unharmed from about 30 torpedoes, that flew right into your hanger.

OOC: Star Destroyers are unharmed by any torpeatoes or lasers untill their shield generators are destroyed, unless the ship fires a super-laser type that can break through shields. Shields go down around the hanger bay long enough for the fighters to go out, and then the shields are instintaniously raised again. You fired after the ties were launched, not before. So, your torpeatoes don't make it through, untill the shield generators are destroyed (two on the top, and one on the bottom). It's standard on all Star Destroyers.

Shoot it enough and eventually they'll collapse on their own (Of course, pouring all the fire directly onto the spot where the generators are so that their shields drop quickly and you can destroy them is a good plan). 32 torpedoes would damn neer rip the Destroyer apart, don't think in terms of Star Wars Tech, I have far surpassed that. I use tech on a different scale, Proton Torpedos were retired long ago, for lack of power.

32 Torpedoes hitting the ship at the same time, reasonably close to each other, would not only blast through the shields on that part of the ship but do some major damage to the hull as well and considering that docking bay doors need to be open to allow ships to leave (Not the shields, the physical doors) then a lot of the armor usually over the docking bays isn't there so, once the explosion penetrates the shields it's right inside the ship (provided you're shooting when ships are launching)

In other words, the torpedos would in fact penetrate the shields. ISDs are not invulnerable when faced with superior firepower. Now, your ship is bigger, no doubt, but size does not play much of a factor in extreme advance tech. I've seen fighters the size of a UAV used today, take down stuff thousands of times its own size.

Courtisy of Klonor, and his Star Wars Tech Expertise. A bit of my own stuff in there now and then.

Finnaly! Let's get this show done!

I'll give you that much.

That didn't tell me anything, did you accept the attack? Do you still stick with your guns after my information?

OOC: Well....
"Sir, our hanger bay has been hit with almost maximum damage!"

"Shit. All right, bring her into cloak and try to have the fighters get at the other ship."

The Cadet Captan looked at his datapad and saw that a section of H.S.S. Huntaer was totaly blown apart, but the ship itself is still stable.

"Ok..... How are we going to get out of this one?"

The Devastator began to drift off into the dimensional layer again. The other ship had begun to cloak as well, releasing fighters as it went. Obviously Ties, the weak fighters many nations that used the odd technology that Huntaer used, cheap, sometime's shieldless, they were produced in the thousands to swarm an oponent. But catching the devastator would be harder.

The large ship would, undoubtedly be looking for the Devastator, so, she was going to give them what she was looking for, firing a cloaked drone, it flew off, trailing the ever so slightest of temporal radiation. As the Devastator began to prepare her second volly.

OOC: Note; I'm useing the more updated ties such as the Tie Hunters, Tie Defenders, Phantoms, Advanced, Scimitar, Cyclone, Stealth, and several others. They aren't as weak as tie interceptors or tie fighters, for most of these have a hyperdrive (or at least, my nation installed one onto them) and shields(again, due to my nation).

IC: Hirotik decided to move Huntaer into fireing position as though it was to bombard a planet. Still cloaked and moving ever so slowly, Huntaer moved into position so it was above the Devastator ship.
"All right, as soon as we drift right above that ship, I want us to decloak and fire all weapons. Including the concusion missles. I want a volley of 40 missles headed at the ships bridge as soon as we decloak. I also want all Ion Cannons firing upon the ship as to disable it for boarding action.
Get the Heavy Turbo laser turrents ready for planetary bombardment position as soon as we are above. Have the tractor beams ready."

here goes nothing...

OOC: Are you following the drone? Cause the ship already cloaked.

OOC: Are you following the drone? Cause the ship already cloaked.

(huntaer's puppet nation)
OOC:
Ah shit. Ignore most of the last one then. Missed it again, comes from staying up too late. Oh well. They are still flying high above a normal course. I guess only the ties will have to search.

IC: The Tie Phantomes which were previousely launched started to fire in random directions, just enough energy to cause a glitch in the shields to make a cloaked ship visible. Hopefully, they don't give way to their own ship too.

The Devastator began to turn, slipping in behind the ship, where the captain took the bet the engine wash would be masking their sensors. He doubted they had temporal sensors, but he wasnt going to risk it.

"Prepare torpedoes, target the bridge, and the power generators. 4 vollies on my mark."

Umm.. Evedently we both forgot to read our posts carefully. The Huntaer is also cloaked.
