Four years ago, the Sith Emperor of Zactarn Prime and his allies, the Family Vespeterium, Sith Shadows and Ardessia all declared war on the Cravian Jedi. They attacked the Jedi stronghold, and the combined fleets of the Sith Shadows and Zactarn Prime defeated the Jedi Fleet in the three hour long Battle of Cravious. However, many Jedi fighters slipped through the fingers of the Axis, and escaped.

The Grand Defence Axis declared victory, but the Jedi had other ideas. The Cravian Jedi appeared six months later with a huge Unified Jedi Army and won a victory against the combined fleets of Zactarn Prime and Vespeterium Minor. They then began to invade and conquer the colonies of Zactarn Prime, one by one. Over four years, the Jedi have had nothing but victory as they surprised and outnumbered the Axis Armies.

And now it has come to this. Two days ago, the Zactarn Intelligence recieved word on the movements and plans of the Unified Jedi Armies. It went as thus.

'Next target is the Kingdom of Sarall, the last major Sith colony. If we can occupy this planet, the Sith will be destroyed as a colonial force. The Kingdom of Sarall will also provide a good springboard for an invasion of Zactarn Prime. If we can knock Zactarn Prime out of this war, the Murkossinians will soon follow. They will not want to fight a war without the protection the Zactarn Space Fleet gives them. And we will have destroyed the major Sith stronghold in the Cravious system and one of the strongest Sith in the Universe. Victory will be ours.'

The Unified Armies of the Cravian Jedi have now invaded the planet, but the Axis forces are ready. This Battle will be a Battle for the survival of the Axis and the survival of the Sith. They must win.

Jedi Forces: 500,000 Jedi, 6000 heavy wepaons, 3000 Space Battle Tanks.
Commanders: Lord Welldin Rolm, head of the Cravian Jedi. Master Rytokus.
Axis Forces: 400,000 Sith, 5000 heavy weapons, 3000 V18 Tripods. Commanders: Darth Vaclavious, Curdar Richer Thelm Vespeterium.

bump for answers. The battle will commence tomorrow.

OOC: Can I get in on this?

Yeah sure.

"Another major leader of the Cravian Jedi is Master Rytokus. We had him captured but he escaped. And we will start the battle preps today."

Yeah sure.

OOC: In that case I'll send an interceptor fleet, backed by massive gunships and carriers, lots of fun.

IC:

The Jedi needed aid, a fleet of 5,000 Bloodpath, 5,000 Gravebane, and 5,000 Genesis interceptors, as well as 5,000 Legion and Grizzly Gunships, would escort a fleet of 1,000 Carrier Variants to assist the Jedi in their crusade against the darkness.

"Commander Trede come take a look at this." said Lieutenant Terrius.

"What?" asked Fdar Trede JR. the House Speakers son

"The Jedi have several fleets of ships guarding the planet. What will we do?"

"Well we'll wait for them to drop guard a bit. We shall attack when they are vulnerable."

"Okay sir."

Curdar began the official duties. 'Ok then' he sighed. 'First, we demand that Mini Miehm withdraw their approaching ships from the Craious system or there will be war between us.'

OOC: You can't get involved in this battle, but when the war continues you will be a Jedi Ally.

OOC: Let him get involved it will be fun. Of course the news of this war has spread so let him go and help them.

Curdar began the official duties. 'Ok then' he sighed. 'First, we demand that Mini Miehm withdraw their approaching ships from the Craious system or there will be war between us.'

OOC: You can't get involved in this battle, but when the war continues you will be a Jedi Ally.


OOC: Ok, I can do that.

IC:

The fleet had not arrived yet, but they turned back, waiting for a better time to attack.

OOC: Yeah sorry, but we really need to win the battle or it's lights out for us. And this thread wouldn't last very long would it? :D

IC: 'The Jedi are camped out above the ravine' Curdar observed. 'It will be hard to attack them. We will have our tripods blast the rocks first and see if we can force a landslide. Then the Sith can attack. A good plan Darth?'

The Planet of Haritiona which was a colony of Zactarn Prime has been torn apart. The star is dying. It is still barely habitable for some strange reason. It's been in the same state for nearly 1 year now. Maybe longer. It has been torn to pieces as only a few still live. Most of the ones still alive are Jedi and commander Trede JR. has issued that we liberate the non-Jedi. 2 VSSD's have been sent along with 7 squadrons of TIE Scimitars, 3 Orbital Bombers, 3 Medical Ships, 3 Scientific ships, and 1 Capital Dreadnought, The Machine.

OOC: Yeah sorry, but we really need to win the battle or it's lights out for us. And this thread wouldn't last very long would it? :D

IC: The Jedi are camped out above the ravine' Curdar observed. 'It will be hard to attack them. We will have our tripods blast the rocks first and see if we can force a landslide. Then the Sith can attack. A good plan Darth?'

OOC: I expected a space battle before landing, so I sent a big fleet, I can send smaller infantry units if you like.

OOC: Here's a pic of Haritiona. This will be a key battle ground as it is the closest planet to Zactarn Prime. http://www.thinfilmmfg.com/mtphoto/photo03/photos/stardeath.jpg

OOC: I expected a space battle before landing, so I sent a big fleet, I can send smaller infantry units if you like.

OOC: Yes send patrol units to see what the ruckus is. We attack and kill them then you send a squad or 2 and we barley snag this battle. Then you get pissed and send as many as possible throughout the war.

IC: Yes it does sound like a good plan.

OOC: Yeah because we will win this battle. Because if we don't the war will be all but over. So don't send tons of troops. But like Zactarn said, you can send your massive space fleet for later in the war.

IC: Right, then we will let the troops rest for now. We will make battle with the Jedi in the morning.

OOC: Yes send patrol units to see what the ruckus is. We attack and kill them then you send a squad or 2 and we barley snag this battle. Then you get pissed and send as many as possible throughout the war.

IC: Yes it does sound like a good plan.

OOC: Patrol units are very large, nearly 100 units, squads are much smaller, 20-30, so it'll be the other way around.

IC:

A pair of interceptor squadrons were dispatched to investigate the fighting, they were tough ships, but they were not top of the line Genesis units, these were reserve Bloodpaths and Gravebanes, faster, but less powerful in weapons and armor.

"It appears to be a camp. Let's kill the men and takeover the campsite. We shall rest here untill tomarrow night."

OOC: We are waiting untill tomarrow night in NS days not RL days right.

No, real days. I have to sleep in a minute. I'll carry it on tomorrow.

"It appears to be a camp. Let's kill the men and takeover the campsite. We shall rest here untill tomarrow night."

OOC: We are waiting untill tomarrow night in NS days not RL days right.

OOC: So, like 5 minutes from now? ;)

IC:

The Interceptors entered the system and burned for the planet, it had no name in their databanks, just a number, 1275.9.01 Beta, and something was happening on the surface, so near to one of their outposts it was worth investigating, so they would investigate, 40 Bloodpaths and 20 Gravebanes, armed with Gatling Lasers and Plasma cannon, as well as Elerium 115 Torpedoes and "Basebuster" Fusion Missiles, they were reserve units, but they would be enough to deal with any small incursion, powerful Neo-Steel armor and 2nd generation shields, they could take a beating, and with their weapons, they could give one out too.

The tripods shot the rocks causing a landslide that killed one of the man at the campsite. Darth Vaclavious then dropped down silently behind a rock. He then used a Sith's greates weapon. Fear. He summoned an evil and frightening creature called a Forngar. The Forngar walked over to the partially startled guard and snarled at him. The guard then backed away scared out of his mind. The Forngar then smacked him in the stomach sending the guard flying and slamming his back into a rock. The Forngar was about to swipe him when it dissapeared. Darth Vaclavious then teleported to behind the guard who was now on his own shaking feet. Darth Vaclavious then whispered in his ear.

"Boo."

The guard then went crazy as Darth vaclavious the sliced off his head and stuck him on a stick that he hung over the already started campfire. He then signalled for his troops as they raced down and all settled in the tent. Darth Vaclavious then said.

"Dinner is done anyone hungry?"

As he pointed to the beheaded guard.

'Don't be disgusting Darth' said Curdar. 'We don't eat these scum.'

A Murkossinian gunner ambled up to Curdar. He was 8'0 tall, reasonably short for his race.
'Sir. We have reports that the Jedi are moving toward this campsite. We must ready our troops. The Battle of Sarall is about to begin. Here's to the survival of the Sith.'

'Indeed' said Curdar. 'Are your Sith ready to fight Lord Vaclavious? Our machines can only do so much against the users of the force. The entire Battle will hinge on your Sith warriors. Only with them can we truly crush the United Jedi Armies of Cravious.'

The Interceptors entered the atmosphere, the swift Gravebanes leading, followed by the older Bloodpaths, they detected something on the planet surface, but they were unable to identify it, so they were going for a closer look.

OOC:Can I join?

Character:
Maxen/Special Directives Company Commander currently based out of Moorington.
Base:
Moorington is about 220 parsecs east of the hapes cluster. Looking from Corusant outwards.
Culture:
Called the moors. In an economic thriving stage due to the fact that until 100 years ago there was no space travel what so ever and still where working with gunpowder, uranium, and steel for their guns.
Military Force:
A good many fleets ranging from Frigates (Moorish Designated Class Cologne) to Heavy Cruisers (MDC Tunis). There is only a few new Heavy Battleships (MDC Rhineland).

OOC: Sure, the more the merrier. As I've said though, the first battle is stictly between the United Jedi Armies of Cravious and the Grand Defence Axis. Then others can join the war on whatever side it is they choose. You may take a little travel time as well, as Cravious is a little way from where you are.

The Space Pirates humbelly request to give aid to the Sith's cause. In exchange for some...material necessary for research purposes. Such material will be discussed...soon.

Still, we are ready to serve with the best weapons and arsenal the Space Pirates have to offer.

We are prepared to give the following soldiers to your cause:

Three Agrippa class Frigates, the Eukledies, the A'kaz, and the Death's Harper.
2,350 Pirate Legionares (troopers)
130 Aerotroopers
25 Commandoes
15 Special-Ops Commandoes
5 Elite Pirates

As well as some other weapons we...shall not disclose as of yet.

We await your response.

OOC: Thank you
IC:

Coded Message to Assorted Jedi of the Light:

The Moorish Commonweaqlth is happy to provide any help within reason. At the moment.....

1) 1 Bulk Cruiser fitted with the newest shields and armor to act as a transport.
2) 9 Companies of the elite Special Directives Units for a lease of one year. They will each be outfitted with one Tie Scimatars with an 20% increase in attack power and armor with a speed decrease of 15% but with a fuel consumption rate of 10% above normal.
3) 3 Frigates
4) And finally a division of tread outfitted Iron Cross class light tanks. (Think of a something like an Abram cannon mounted on the body of the Tiger II)

Thank you to the Zebesian Pirates. Your greed will be well suited as an ally of ours. We will discuss further after the Battle.

'Darth Vaclavious, the Jedi are approaching. We must organize our troops. Are your Sith ready for Battle?'

bump

"uhhhhh well I guess they are ready but they haven't eaten." as Darth Vaclavious pointed to the half eaten Body.

Curdar stooped over to vomit, but controlled himself.

'Well, I didn't really want to see that, but there you go. I'll let them finish' he paused 'eating and then we will begin our attack.'

"O C'mon Curdar."

Darth Vaclavious threw a Fried Finger and a Caesar Salad in a Can at him.

Curdar bent over and was actually sick this time. 'We don't eat meat Darth. Especially not human meat. Yuck. You'll get all sorts of diseases from them.'

"One I'm a SITH and I can't contract a disease and two I boiled the skin first. At least eat the salad. We wait till we see the Jedi coming at us untill we attack."

OOC: Jeffery Dahmer never had a disease.

OOC: You must remember the Family are disgusted by humans. They're sure you can get diseases just by touching them, let alone eating them.

IC: 'Very well, I will eat the Salad. Oh my God is that the Jedi! Oh no wait, it's just a group of buffalo. I'm very jumpy lately.'

"O thanks." said Darth Vaclavious as he then picked up one Buffalo and threw him into a near by rock. He then started a fire where he began skinning the buffalo. After the buffalo was skinned he stuck it over the fire.

"Curdar I know it's not your way of life but we have no more non meat products so you will have to eat meat or you will die of starvation."

A Moorish Fleet codenamed Darkness of the Light, is started on it's hyperspace journey that would take them at the least a year for everything to get there. There was two squadrens of Tie Scimatars going like the others which where classed as Saber Class fighters.

'We're not evolved to eat meat. Luckily, I have brought some plant sources of food with us. I have to feed my Gunners after all. I'll just eat my solusini roots thank you.'

'We're not evolved to eat meat. Luckily, I have brought some plant sources of food with us. I have to feed my Gunners after all. I'll just eat my solusini roots thank you.'

"If you die it's on you."

Curdar looked at Darth Vaclavious. 'I have no intention of dying. We Murkossinians can survive for days at a time with very little food. It's what comes from evolving on an almost uninhabitable planet. Anyway, the Jedi may be here soon. Perhaps you should sort your men into formation. I will go and inspect my gunners. Make sure their Tripods are fully functional.'

"Ok anyway when we have a visual I have a plan. We make them come to us".

After a lengthy inspection of the Murkossinian Gunners, Curdar strolled back to Darth Vaclavious. 'We are ready when they get here. Have you had any visual yet?'

A message was sent by a secure channel. Within this message was a hollogram. When the hollogram activated, a massive Space Pirate was revealed to the ships of the Sith fleet. He stood, almost seven and a half feet, his large head slightly lop-sided, due to a massive gash that ran across the left side of his face. Where his left eye should have been, there was only a red photoreceptor.

"This is Admiral Kah'Zah, of the Space Pirates. The Space Pirate armada is cloaked and standing by. Our plan is to board as many ships as possible, overwhelming thier crews with our superior infantry, and taking controll of the vessels. We will not give you our coordinates, less this be intercepted. Know that we will maneuver near the enemy ships as soon as they drop out of hyperspace. That is all."

OOC: Sorry, you've been outdone in the size department. Curdar is 8'9 tall. ;)
Lanky and weak though, like the rest of his species.

IC: 'Very good admiral. For the moment, Darth Vaclavious and myself have to concentrate in this Battle. It is vital for the survival of our planets. But we will speak again after the Battle has been won, or lost. I hope the next time we speak that I will have good news.'

The Realm would like to commit forces to the side of the Sith, although we cannot commit masses of forces. However, the Sorrow of Nations, a dreadnought, will arrive. I presume this massive craft will be used as a mobile base, as it is ill-suited to anything else but capital-to-capital combat.

We would commit more forces, but we are distracted by minor Republic bugs, at the current time. However, if we win this war, I have no doubt that you will aid us in crushing them

- Coded message, from External Security AI, Hailiss.

'Send a coded message back' ordered Curdar,

'Thank you for your pledge of support. We would be honoured to aid you if we can win this war and thank you for the donation of the ship. We will soon engage in the most important Battle that the system of Cravious has ever seen. Wish us luck.'

'Send a coded message back' ordered Curdar,

'Thank you for your pledge of support. We would be honoured to aid you if we can win this war and thank you for the donation of the ship. We will soon engage in the most important Battle that the system of Cravious has ever seen. Wish us luck.'

OOC: I'm hiring mercenaries and Sarall and Timbell got erased.

Errmmm, are we going to fight this battle soon? We could win it but wreck Sarall so much that it becomes uninhabitable.

OOC: Right, I'm going to RP this Battle just to get it out of the way. Then the war can start.

IC:The Jedi Armies began to approach the Axis troops. 'Ready' shouted Curdar, and the Tripods all rose in a line at the front of the Battle. 'FIRE' he ordered, and the Tripods all opened fire on the approaching Jedi troops. Those that didn't put up their force sheilds quick enough were immediately turned to dust. A line of Battle tanks opened fire back, knocking out 17 Tripods and causing destruction in the lines behind. The Battle had started.

The Axis and Jedi heavy weapons fired relentlesly at eachother, knocking out machines and people alike. But for the moment the two armies kept their distance. The Axis had worked themselves into a good defensive position, and were given protection from the Jedi artillery and laser cannons. When they were sure enough havoc had been wreaked, the two armies ordered their last move. The charge of the Jedi and Sith Warriors against one another.

After 4 hours Battle, the Axis had made up the most ground on the Jedi and had by now taken the first Jedi Defensive line. They had captured a reasonable amount of abandoned artillery. But the assault had been costly. The jedi had fallen back in a brilliantly defensive manner, causing destruction to the Axis frontlines. By now though, they were getting worn down.

After 6 hours, the Jedi began to retreat. They had been beaten and ran towards their landing zones hoping to get enough forces off the planet before they were captured. However, the Axis forces did not pursue them. They had taken a terrible toll for the defence of Sarall.

That night, a young Murkossinian Gunner reported to Curdar.

'Sir, the Battle has been won and the toll counted.'

'Lets hear it then' said Curdar wearily. He had been in many situations where the Battle had been won, but they had lost too many men to capitalize on it.

'The Axis Forces have lost 700 Tripods, however, the Jedi lost double that number in Battle Tanks. We lost 1000 Heavy Weapons and 2300 disabled. The Jedi lost all of their Heavy Weapons. It seems that they couldn't get off of the planet with them, so they destroyed them to prevent them falling into our hands. We lost 23,000 Sith Warriors dead and 40,000 wounded. They lost 20,000 Jedi dead, 43,000 wounded and 25,000 captured. And, another peace of good news...

'What is it' asked Curdar suspiciously.

'It seems that Lord Welldin Rolm was killed in a personal duel with Darth Vaclavious. That means that Master Rytokus is now the Commander of the United Jedi Armies in Cravious.'

'Good' said Curdar 'Rytokus is a brilliant warrior but not quite as shrewd as Rolm when it comes to tactics. This could work in our favour.'

'A brilliant victory all round' said the young Gunner his eyes flashing yellow.

'Don't get too carried away young one. We have staved off defeat today, but the Jedi still occupy all of the Sith colonies. They still have a massive military prescence in this Galaxy, and still have the Upper hand. But now, for the time being at least, we can at least stop worrying about a Jedi invasion of Zactarn Prime.'

OOC: The Battle is over. All others can now join in. The War has to be fought in many other places and the Jedi still occupy a huge portion of the Eastern Galaxy. So feel free to bring your fleets and troops in to attack wherever you feel you need to. One point though. If you're invading a planet, you have to at least have a nearby planet under occupation. Of course all allies of the Jedi are free to use the planets the Jedi have occupied. All allies of the Axis have the planets that we occupy. So everybody ready? Because the War starts again now.

Three Jedi troop transports, the Galanthathor, the Turgos, and the Republic's Pride, cruised through the inky-black depths of space. The ships were escorted by three full fighter squadrons, composed of X-Wings, Y-Wings, and modified B-Wing bombers. Behind the bulk of ships stood a Mon Calimari War Cruiser, named the Reflective. (OOC: Note, if I screwed up the ships, just think of them as old republic alternatives.) These three transport ships held a huge bulk of the Jedi's ground forces that would enter battle in the Alderan and surrounding systems. So far, three Sith patrol groups had been completely eviscerated: for the swarm of fighters and the mighty cannons on the cruiser were too much for small, lightly-armed scouts.

Little did the ships know, the whole time the ships attacked a silent predator was watching and waiting. Learning, expanding their knowledge of Jedi tactics.

Suddenly, the Reflective's radar operatior cave a cry of disbelief. "Sir!" cried the operator, "We have three inbound contacts. I-I don't know where they came from sir! No energy spikes, no hyperspace wake, nothing sir! They just came out of nowhere. Unknown ship configuration, unknown weapon configuration, unkn-"

*RUMBLE*

The Reflective was under fire from the three ships. Dozens of small, but powerful, streams of blue globs of energy streamed out of the each of the new ships. For these ships were Space Pirate frigates: designed to strike fast, hard, and not leave anything left behind.

Admiral Kah'Zah, sitting comfortably on board one of the frigates, waved his hand and said, with his photoreceptor whirring, "Release the boarding parties."

Out of each of the Frigates, two or three missile-like objects darted out at incredible speeds. The cloud of fighters, now scrambeling to combat the new menace, barley had time to register, let alone fire at, the incoming missiles. They were directed at each of the four captial ships: and within seconds they had closed within six meters of the hull.

*CRASH!*

With a sound of creaking and crunching metal, the large missiles crashed into the hulls of the four Jedi warships. Most of the men in the rooms boarded by the Space Pirates didn't have time to react, for there were still gaping holes decompressing the air and pulling everyone out into space. As soon as the rooms were "clear," the pods opened. Hundreds of Space Pirate troopers, armed with modified energy shields, Quantnum Assault Cannons, Assault Scythes, re-enforced Chozo-Stable P-Ore armor, and a few grenediers. On board the Reflective, the entage was quite different, and much more deadly. Aerotroopers, with their various clan paint adorning their bodies, began to soar through the halls; suprising and killing dozens of un-armed soldiers. Troopers also filed out, their chitenous plating clicking slightly as they charged into room after room. Occassionally, a helples Jedi soldier would have a blaster rifle or blaster pistol ready. These weapons proved in-effective against the Pirate's modified energy shields. And, to the horror of the Jedi assault soldiers on board the troop transports, most of the lighter weapons failed to damage the thick, energy-absorbent plating on the space pirate troopers.

Deck after deck began to fall to Pirate Soldiers. The retaliation was slow and ineffective. Soldiers formed simple rag-tag groups of militia soldiers to try to stop the boarding parties. Soon, it was apparent that ineffective weapons paired with ineffective command structure could not compare to Space Pirate discipline, order, and efficiency.

The space battle was not going as planed, however.

The fighter screen proved to be too much for even the Space Pirate's fast-firing turrets. Although a dozen or more fighters fell, it seemed that there was always more ready to replace the fallen.

Admiral Kah'Zah monitored the status of his ships and scowled, his yellow and red teath glistening in the low-light of the ship's bridge. With a quick flick of his head, Kah'Zah barked, "Cloak the frigates and pull back to a safe distance. Keep in range of the capital ships, though. If we need to we can always deploy...the secret weapons."

As though they were nothing but illusions, the three frigates twisted out of the visual spectrum. Leaving the fighters confused and disorgonized.

On board the capital ships, the boarding parties had run into a slight problem.

Each of the ships had, it seems, taken up a small company of Jedi Knights. The knights cut through Pirate lines like a hot knife through butter, rarely taking a hit from the shrewd fire the troopers were able to pull off.

Kah'Zah monitored the progress of his soldiers with disgust.

"Helmsman," Kah'Zah barked, his photoreceptor zooming into the holloscreen showing his soldier's progress, "Release four Omega tubes, one at each of the capital ships, and...release one M-8 tube at these designated coordinates."

*CRASH!!!*

Once again, the sound of metal grinding greated the soldiers onboard the capital ships.

The Jedi on board the Reflective were dashing towards a company of fleeing Pirate Troopers, when they heard a deafening roar. Turning around, the Jedi found themselves face-to-face with something huge, something deady, something...blue. What looked like a Space Pirate of enormous size, came lumbering down the coordior: it's huge head scraping the celing as it charged. It was nothing other than an Elite Space Pirate.

The Jedi drew their lightsabers, dashing at the monsterous creature. The Elite Pirate, seing the energy blades, drew his monsterous hand up, a giant wave of blue and white energy errupting around his arm. The Jedi's lightsabers began to twist and turn: until the sabers stretched out into the energy wave. Each of the sabers were practically being drained of power, and were completely ineffective against the Pirate before them. Every time the Jedi tried to wave their lightsabers, or move towards the Pirate, the blade would still be drawn into that blue and white vortex.

Then, the Eltie Pirate crouched down, the device on its back glowing fiercly. The energy had been syphoned into his shoulder-mounted plasma cannon. With a brilliant flash of light that took the Jedi completely off-guard, the coordidor filled with crimson energy.

All that was left of the Jedi was a smouldering pile of ash and black, sticky fluid.

-------

Two hours later, after the Reflective's guns had blasted the last fighter to ruin, Admrial Kah'Zah relayed a message to the Sith command.

---<MESSAGE INBOUND>---
Greetings, this is Admiral Kah'Zah. I am pleased to announce that our force has successfully captured one cruiser, named the Reflective, and three troop transport vessels. A total of 153,000 combat soldiers were destroyed, as well as eighteen Jedi Knights. 36,000 soldiers have also been slaughtered on board the Reflective, and our teams are begining to scour the ships for any survivors. We shall bring what is left of these four ships to the nearest docking facility within the next few days.

These soldiers were en-route to supply Jedi forces in the Alderan system. I do beleive that without these soldiers, the Alderan system will fall.

If you need us to disrupt any re-supply lines, or troop transport lines, please inform us. We will carry out our duties.

Death to the Hunter! All glory to the Space Pirates!
---<END MESSAGE>---

"Curdar we must liberate Haritiona. It's the only planet habitable left. So are we to go?"

OOC: here's a pic of Haritiona http://www.thinfilmmfg.com/mtphoto/...s/stardeath.jpg

The Interceptors over Saral had witnessed the defeat of the Jedi forces, now the Terran Dominion offered aid, a fleet-group and ground assault units were to be sent to aid in the defense of any worlds that might be lost to the Sith, with their renewed offensive they were certaily going to attack everywhere they could, and the Protoss and Terran forces could be used almost anywhere, while the Zerg could be used literally anywhere.

'Yes, we must go to Haritiona next. By the way congratulations on killing the Jedi Lord. That was some good saber work.' Curdar turned to his intelligence men, who began to whisper to him in their native language.

'Hmmm, it seems the forces of Miehm are arriving in the Galaxy to aid the Jedi Armies. That could be very bad news. They have some very powerful armies, and United with the Jedi they could be a deadly enemy.'

The young Murkossinian gunner that had reported on the Battle once again walked up to Curdar and began to converse with him in the native language.

'Ah, excellent. It seems Admiral Kah'Zah of the Zebesian Space Pirates has won a significant victory over the Jedi fleets. The Alderan system is now weak and vunrable.' He pondered, his eyes flashing a range of colours.

'I wonder Darth' he began 'if we could confuse the Jedi Armies by attacking the Alderan System. They will be expecting an attempted liberation of the Sith colonies. They have begun to reinforce the Colonies following their little setback on Sarall. We may be able to draw troops out of the system by attacking Alderan. Of course, the Terran Dominion will make it considerably harder. But if we could draw them into Alderan and defeat them there, they may not have enough time to regroup on Haritiona.'

'Of course, we would have to defeat the Jedi 5th and 6th Space Fleets first. They're commanded by Admiral Artus Rolm. He's, errm, Lord Welldin Rolm's brother. I believe that Space Battle is your area of expertise, Lord Vaclavious. If I contacted the Space Pirates and got them to unite their fleet with yours, we may be able to pull it off, even if Miehm brings their considerable fleet into Battle. It's your call, Sith Lord.'

"Excellent Plan but we take the battle to the stars as we first go and liberate Hartiona and free the innocent Men.Women,and Children. We free them killl all the jedi here and we have a port planet for trading and training. We liberate Haritiona with your ground fighting then we take the battle out to the Alderan System and slowly leak into the Dargarvus System where all those new planets are. We finish the war there as they will pursue. If they do not I have Orbital Bombers to air raid them with as they rest on the colonies that were once ours."

The imposing Dreadnought moved towards the position of the Sith. Sleek and black, yet terrifying, it moved with a sublime grace rarely seen in starships.

"Greetings, Lords of the Sith. We are here to aid you. The Jedi are little more than bugs to be crushed, as are all who oppose us. We have secured a HQ in a nearby fortified moon, should you so wish to occupy it."

The Sorrow of Nations, an imposing craft, with a hint of gothic architecture, was possibly the most powerful civilian craft ever made. A recent series of warcruisers had made this slightly slow craft non-cost-efficient, and was so retired. However, it had been rebuilt from the ground up, along with a fortified factory moon in the nearby system of Sarsos. This moon, and seventy thousands workers, had worked for twelve years on this ship, along with the finest of equipment. With shields beyond compare, armour bulky beyond compare, and weaponry sufficient to level a planet, the Sorrow of Nations was indeed a fine craft. However, it was ponderous, and not suited for destroying small, fast craft.

It sat where it was, twin ports opening, preparing to admit any shuttles that may want to arrive.

"Unfortunately, we have no fighter craft, but we have no doubt that we are busy producing these, in order to further aid your cause."

The shadowed figure aboard the ship smiled, a cruel, thin, smile, and began to laugh, mockingly, for no apparent reason at all....

OOC: Don't worry, he's just slightly insane, but totally committed to the Sith cause.

Curdar's eyes flashed grey. 'Err, yes quite.'

He turned to Darth Vaclavious. 'This is a very generous offer. We can use this moon as our Battle headquaters. When we arrive we will plan our next move. Then we will devise an exact plan to crush the Jedi scum.'

He turned back to the Hyperspatial delegation. 'We will accept your offer. Would you like to lead the way to the ship?'

OOC: we would like to join but need a map of the area most of the war will take place. i can't send vast armies, i am just testing the RP watters so it will be a small squad. also we have no alegiance bought it just depends on what you guys happen to do. here is our introduction to the war:

IC: It had been several years and still the norrad had not found a single planet on which they could test space battle. the norrad was the only space cruiser ever built and maybe even the last if there was no point in conquering the stars. the cruiser had no weapons at all because piglatnia had no proof there was life at all. they had been sent to see what the effects of space did to bullets when they were fired.

"What do you mean that we can't land on that planet either"said hasla in an iritated voice."this is the fortyith planet that we can't land on." "well it isn't that we cant land on this one we can, but when we scaned the surface we found that it was flat the whole thing was very flat" retourted the head techie incharge of research. "too flat what is wrong with that you said the last one was too rocky my men are getting restless" shouted hasla, a voice from behind made hasla stop shouting. "sir" "yes, lefty" "well there is another fight in the mess hall sir" stamered lefty "john already has his knife out" "john! i should have known" hasla remarked then he turned to the techie "see, my men are close to mutiny and... he was stoped mid sentance when the warning siren went off seconds later an explosion and half the ship rocking showed that something hit them. "everyone to the escape pod" yelled hasla over the screams and crashing noises. he then got up and ran to the escape pod himself.

"how many did we lose?" questioned hasla when they finaly landed an secured the landing site. ' that scientist was right this is flat were sitting ducks for anything our here. "sir the entire squade made it to the escape pod also we have one female a scientist" answers lefty "what diference is it that she is a girl" "well if we cant get off of here we need to.." "no, that is not necesary at least not now we shouldnt even think of that unless it is our last resort" "well what do you think we should do" askes lefty "we set up camp and wait"

OOC:Hasla is the leader of greymatter the top squad in my army. the squad is made up of 11 people they also have a scientist with them. they have:

uniform
green camo suit
1 military grade knife can also be thrown
1 main weapon based on training
1 pack containing 200 magizines of ammo and
enough rations for 2 weeks straight 1 bereta model 92

OOC: Yeah, sure you can join. I'll have to get another person to do the map, because my computer is.... not very good, to put it lightly. Erm, some questions. What species are your people? What Galaxy do they come from? They are obviously not famliar with Intergalactic politics, if they haven't found any life. And have you just got into space?

we are humans from earth they were sent on a mission to test land based space battles

Well, you'd probably be better off joining the Jedi. The Murkossinians, which are the species of my aliens, despise humans. They especially despise those from Earth. And the other members of the Grand Defence Axis (the orgaization that the Sith-Vespeterium Alliance founded) are fiercely territorial. They probably won't like you landing in their galaxy, even if it is by accident.

bump

well we realy arnt going to join any side we will just help whoever resques us.

Well, I suppose I'll leave that to the Jedi Alliance. Because the chances are that my guys would destroy you on sight.

so when will we start anything new.

OOC: So too many posts whats goin on now I'm lost?

The gist of it is that we are still at war with the Jedi and that we need to invade some of their territory or liberate some of ours. I'll leave the decision of which up to you.

LIBERATION!!!!!!!! We must tell Hyperspatial Travel to either land in Zactarn Prime and stay for a bit or go into battle at Haritiona as we are on his ship

The Interceptors over Saral had witnessed the defeat of the Jedi forces, now the Terran Dominion offered aid, a fleet-group and ground assault units were to be sent to aid in the defense of any worlds that might be lost to the Sith, with their renewed offensive they were certaily going to attack everywhere they could, and the Protoss and Terran forces could be used almost anywhere, while the Zerg could be used literally anywhere.

OOC: See my post again, then respond to it.

"Hey Curdar look. Ground Assault Units."

Darth Vaclavious could see them in the distance. He then pulled hi wrist to his mouth and said,

"Bring the Reconstructer we have buissness to attend to."

Just then a VSSD that was hovering in orbit landed and Darth Vaclavious boarded.

"Curdar come with me and Delegate from Hyperspatial Travel we cannot accept sorry but get off the planet now."

"Hey Curdar look. Ground troops."

OOC: Ground Troops? What? I have Interceptors, air\space units, no ground forces.

I meant Ground Assault sry

I meant Ground Assault sry

OOC: The Interceptors are still availabe to go after, and you might want to deal with them soon, they're coming for you soon.

OOC: ok for the sake of me not having to totally edit my whole post and do everything over again and change my idea say that one went ahead

OOC: ok for the sake of me not having to totally edit my whole post and do everything over again and change my idea say that one went ahead

OOC: Easy enough, I'll say that a single dropship wing followed them by a couple of hours.

IC:

The Interceptors overflew the enemy base camp, and they let loose some of their better weapons, basebuster fusion missiles and gatling lasers stitched their way across the ground of the enemy camp, targeting every heavy emplacement they could find.

Well the squad prepared to leave juli made a last atempt to transmit a mesage home. "homebase this is alpha bravo priority delta we were hit in transit and are now traped on an in hospitable planet, cannot reach set destination i repeat cannot reach... she stoped as the comander aproached "Dr. juli any luck on the comunication?" asked hasla "because if not we have to move out maybe find shelter" " i got an uplink but no response" "alright then, move out marines! Dr. juli make sure to map the area so we dont go in circles ok" "ok"

'I say that we confront the Interceptors in a space battle' said Curdar. 'We have our fleet of 5000 Archer ships, but they are mediocre. We will rely on your ships Darth. If we can win this Battle, we could put the entire West of the Galaxy back under our control. If we lose then we will still be vunerable to the Jedi orbital bombers.'

"Curdar just get in the Reconstructer we have buisness Sarall will no longer be a problem."

The interceptor group sped through the atmosphere, after the departing sith transports, torpedoes and plasma guns blazing, lasers stitching a deadly fireworks show through the sky as they chased the escaping sith.

'This is very uncomfortable' Curdar remarked. 'I hate Space Battles. I feel more comfortable on the ground. How are things going Darth?'

"Things are good."

"Aim the Axial Superlaser for Sarall it's going straight to hell!" he said as he turned to the weapons director.

"Locked we are." said the WD.

"Good fire!"

They then begab glassing the planet slowly watching it turn and burn and warp and burn.

The Interceptors were wracked by the shockwave, shields fell and armor was splintered, 10 of them didn't make it far enough from the planet to escape, but the rest all survived in various states of damage.

Darth Vaclavious saw the interceptors and walked to the central command room. Over the PA he said,

"ATTENTION ALL PILOTS REPORT TO THE HANGAR BAY IMMEDIATLY!"

Then all pilots rushed to the hangar bay. Once they were all present Darth Vaclavious ordered them to get to their respective fighters and deploy. Then 2 squadrons of TIE Scimitars deployed as well as a squadron of TIE Fighters. They were all ordered to destroy the interceptors. The TIE's quickly caught up with the damaged Interceptors and they opened fire.

OOC: Then after the Interceptors were destroyed We nuked Mini miehm 7 BuhZillion times and then he decided to reply if we made it so that this is not IC and we said ok

The surviving Interceptors returned fire, unleashing their gatling lasers and plasma cannon at the attackers, firing in reverse from their turrets as they fled the system to the hyper limit.

Sir Maxen! A moorish navigator ran up. What! He yelled back jumping from his newly gotten Tie Interceptor. We have entered the orbit around Haritiona but the problem is sir is that we don't have a clue who owns it!? Well then we are just going to have to find out arn't we....Lt. Maxen then stalked towards the ships communication station and asked for the Moorish Grand Duke. And got a busy signal so left a message.

-------Requesting more ships----- Urgent need---AuthorizationCode:Adam9

He turned back to the Hyperspatial delegation. 'We will accept your offer. Would you like to lead the way to the ship?'

"But of course. Would you like to take your own shuttle, or be transported in one of ours?"

The Sorrow of Nations was well-prepared for anything that might come up, as the hatred the new leader had for the Jedi had truly induced him to destroy their plans at all costs.

[Information Inbound - Mini Miehm craft inbound for planet]
[Initiate Warp Exarch 771]
[Initiating....]

In the middle of the mammoth craft, there was a small energy field, of blinding white light, contained by several inhibitors. This was an Exarch, a portal capable of warping smaller craft to the Dreadnought's aid, which, however, could not be used while it was moving.

Zeres Colony, Zeres Shipyard

Several hundred small fighter craft, and a number of quickly re-armed shuttles, began moving in single file through the portal, flew out of the portal in the Dreadnought.

[Total Reinforcement -]
[135 Tarask Superiority Interceptors]
[665 Re-Armed Transport Shuttles]
[1275 Impact Drop Pods]

The strange, hidden man, smiled. He had four thousand of the most elite marines, prepared to ravage whatever planet he chose, the newest prototype fighters, which could easily outrange anything the "quantity" Jedi produced, and a sizeable number of transport shuttles, which would be useful for both ferrying troops, and fighting enemy bombers.

He willed the ship to cruise alongside the Sith fleet, and smiled. The Sith were a useful ally, powerful and dangerous, and would easily destroy the pitiful fools who opposed them, gaining him a powerful ally...

He saw the planet burn, and was pleased, as he prepared his craft to receive the Sith..


Greetings, Lords of the Sith. The Sorrow of Nations has been prepared for you to board, and we are currently plotting a course to Alderaan. From there, as I understand it, we shall burn the planet, e'en as your other forces begin reclaiming colonies. Am I correct?

Sire, we still don't know who contrls the planet Haritiona and personally I don't think our allied Jedi of the Light are going to help, the Comm officer stated. Well, we are just going to have to make a defeenseable post arn't we, Maxen spoke in sarcasm.
Okay you heard the moor go for your battle stations and pre-pare the pioneering untis for a construction of a fort.
A mouse droid squeled up to Maxen and delivered him a message....
To: The 1st Expansionary Fleet
From: Supreme Duke of Moorington

Two more Cologne (Medium) Class Battleships are heading your direction with two Bulk-Cruisers acting as transports coming along for the trip with an escort of three Heavy Cruisers.

Nice...Maxen smiled and pre-pared for the reinforcements.....


OOC: Who controlls Haritiona? I never figured that out? The good jedi? bad ones or no jedi?

OOC: Who controlls Haritiona? I never figured that out? The good jedi? bad ones or no jedi?
OOC: Umm well all the Jedi are bad they are randomly taking over planets for no apparent reason except that the colonies chose to be ruled by Zactarn Prime and my leader is a Sith Lord. The Jedi own Haritiona but we are coming to liberate it.

lol. Well I dunno about you Zac, but I get the impression we're on the side of evil. They call it the dark side for a reason. And my guys will kill 1 million humans without so much as turning a hair. I like the bad side. So much more diverse and interesting. Anyways, I'll post more in a few days. I'm not on the PC so much now.

Maxen strode to the command deck of his flagship. "All forces pre-pare to intiate operation Green Zone and your orders shall be comming through any second now..."
Moorish forces attack with thier limited land based units and thier not so limited space units. The attack was aimed at the capital of the planet and it's three most industrialized cities.
The reinforcements where only a week away with enough land troops to officialy take control of the planet.

" anything on the scaner yet" questioned hasla "nope nothing" came the reply.
"well we better find something soon or else..." hasla was cut shart as the radio splutered to life, "this is homebase are you still there i repeat this is homebase are you still there" "yes were still here and are we glad that you called" replies hasla into the reciver "we'll have to wait for a reply the homebase is a long way away" says the doctor to hasla. " in the mean time lets wait in that cave over there."
