The TMF was in the process of taking apart a asteroid belt, when the sensors picked up a craft.

"To Unidentified Craft, this is the CS of the TMF. Who are you and what your buisness is here?"

OOC: technicaly i dont have subspace but oh well here goes
IC: We are peaceful explorers from the Democracy of Prates. It is a suprise to find another vessal out here, who are you!

OOC: i will be gone untill 4PM GMT i think

"This is the Command ship of the Theao Mining Fleet. If you are interested we could bring you aboard to converse."

ooc: There's a whole fleet in/around the belt.

OK we will come abord.

One of the ships, sized five hundred meters, pulled along side the vessel and tractored it to the bay of one of the the three kilometer ships.

OOC: i have a realy small ship
IC: On board the ship the explorers disembarked and invited the people of Theao to come to prates and open diplomatic relations.

One of the officers meet the captain of the Prates vessel, and informed him that while the TMF didn't do diplomatic work, there was a DiploShip in the vicinity that had been re-routed.

A short while later the DS entered the system and prepared to follow the Prates vessel to it's homesystem.

Location Home system of prates:
Unidentified craft approaching all pilots to battle stations(i haven't discovered subspace messaging so they don't know who i am unless i radio in)
Message to prates space corps This is the intrepid we have returned home with a visitor

At space dock:
President hello we have some serous matters to attend to i suggest we go to the senate immediately.

Diplomats you are inited to come to the senate of prates.

A few of the diplomats followed and headed to the senate chambers to see what they had to say.

Dear Diplomats of Theao we would like to propose a alliance between our two respective empires/ worlds.

During the peaceful going ons in the system were going happily on their merry way, something darker was on it's way. Well, not nessisarily darker, but not so peaceful.

There were a number of Taliosian renegades in system, they had stolden anumber of Taliosa Capitol ships and fled to a far of system. They had been running for a while, and had their ships compleatly dormant, at min required power, like a cobra in wait. Without active sensors they hadn't detected a planet with intelligent life on it, in this system, much less one that had resources that could help the renegades out.

As the stations surrounded the planet returned to normal duties, the Renegades moved in. Very small agustments with the engines, to small to detect, except from a more advanced civilzation, ajusted their orbit enough to put them on a course to the 'interseption point' where they would spring their trap. It was close enough to the stations to get them in good attack range, but far enough away as not to cause any real consern

It would be a couple hours for the ships to reach the interseption point, they might be noticed, but with out a really high powered telescope it would be impossible to tell them from a metor, untill it's too late. Atleast, that was the theory

Senate Chamber
We would be interested in finding out the proposed terms first.

Meanwhile in orbit
The DS's sensors picked a number of new ships that were running 'silent'. They sent a message down to the diplomats.

Senate Chamber
There are a number of ships that do not conform to the spatial classes of your ship. They are headed on (insert random co-ordinate grid numbers).

A deep ping rang through the hulls of the 8 ship fleet, it wasn't actually the sensor from the ships, just a signal within the ships that they were being lashed with deep space sensors.

"Sir," said the EWO, Electronic Warfare Officer, "there is a more advanced series of sensors being deployed from the station's area, it seams to be coming from a different style of ship, i'd say more advanced."

"Have we been detected?" the commander asked.

"Most definatly, the sensors are very powerful."

"Ok then, start transmitting a weak distress call, say... full power failure, down to min operating levels. Make it barly detectable, and if possible, make it look like an engine catches on fire shortly, have the rest of the fleet do similer things."

The communications were sent to the rest of the fleet via laser radio, which could only be detected if it was aimed at you. The entire fleet was reporting power losses, and, after a few minutes, a pillar of fire seamed to erupt from the side of the ship.

The World of prates has recently built and launched a Warp capable ship and has found evidence of a advanced empire in the naboring starsystem...

(some one please RP first contact)

A single renegade destroyer, the Star of Power, sped through the void. As it moved, the loathsome creatures inside snarled at each other, as they prepared to raid the latest nation they had just found.

Two frigates accompanied it, and forty fighters. Many more were inside the destroyer, as they ripped their way out of the warp..

"This is Ktarek Ishmur. You will surrender your food, weaponry, people as slaves, and anything else we require. In return, we will spare your civilization. You have twelve minutes to decide."

OOC: well there are diplomats and renegades you have to go through those first

Anyway No!

Message To defence command Ready all fighters and launch in delta formation, also ready all phaser batteries (i have put 40 plaser batteries in various locations around the globe, but they are only as strong as 100 fighters each. so it will still have a hard time breaking through the shields.)

Message to diplomatic vessel i advise you to return to your world because unless you call for reinforcements this planet and you will be sedtroyed

In Orbit
The DS sent a message to the TMF.
A short time later, thirteen ships arrived.

Senate Chamber
We don't think that will be a problem.

"Sir, new contacts, a single destroyer, a couple smaller ships and numorus fighters. Much better technology then the people of this planet," the sensors officer reported.

"Can we take them?" the commander asked.

"Sure, we have them in numbers and power, and we are in good position to attack."

"ok, cut the act, lets come to full power and disable them. First take out offencive systems and fighters, then engines."

The 8 seamingly distressed ships suddenly put out huge amounts of power. The double layer sheilds came online, weapons were powered and the 4 main engines fired a full long burn, sending the small fleet towards the Star of Power and friends.

"Entering weapons range, firing first salvo."

The ships have 2 main weapons, the Mass To Plasma conversion weapons literaly vaporised any solid they hit. And the Blackbird torpedos were biuld to disable specific systems, by burrowing through the hull to the target before detonating.

The PDF/TMF took up orbital postitions over the Prates's primary world, as they watched the 'injured' ships and the new ships duke it out.

my smaller fighters easily doge the incoming fire and head for the enemy ships while firing phasers and torpedoes .(each fighter has about the firepower, and speed(minus hyper drive) of a x-wing)

on the planet: fire all the planetary defence (about the power of one star cruiser not much but it can hold off smaller ships)

Meanwhile prates has now issued a general distress call to all available ships in this sector

OOC: this is the first four way battle i been in and you said you had 8 ships but there are about 1,000+ fighters and the mining fleet probably consists of destroyers up

ooc: My fleet is composed of 9 corvettes, 3 crusiers and a frigate. I don't use the destroyer class as a term for my ships.

The large Taliosia Renagade ships powered through the Prate fighters, the small phasers didn't do much damge to the powerful sheilds, and any fighters that got in the way exploded on the sheilds. Any fighters that got behind them were hit with a powerful EMP pulse, disabling all systems, and towed into a salvage bay by a grapling hook. There the fighters would have their computer systems rewritten to fly themselves and launched again, with the poor pilot still inside, as Taliosa fighters.

The more powerful phasers from the planet couldn't reach most of the fleet, but it did some damage to the ships closer in. Although the sheilding tech guys were able to change the frequency of the sheilding facing the planet to be the inverse of the phasers there, weaking it against other weapons, but making it all but immune to the planatary weapons.

Other then that, the Taliosa renagade fleet basicly ignored the Prate ships, they headed straite for the ships belonging to the Theao, becasue they had better technology and better combat value. The first torpedos headed their way were biult to interface with the ships computer upon contact, by what ever means nessisary, and upload a virus similer to that used on the Prate fighters, inorder to take over the ships with out boarding it.

"Sir, we are down to 70% damage on the outer sheild layer, it seams these new to space guys are little more then annoying," the tactical advisor said.

"Seams that way, as soon as we are in weapons range of the main targets open fire," the commander commanded.

OOC: I have 4 Battleship types, 3 Battlecrusiers, and an old re-fitted dreadnaught class.

"So they want to play do they?" The captain of the frigate commented, "Inform the others that it's time to teach some people that big ships are only a compensation tool for other short-commings."

The thirteen ships spread out into combat formation as the PDS started picking off the torpedos, while the shields formed around the ships.
The sensors began searching for weak spots or other vunerabilities in the shielding systems of the attacking vessels, while the weapons systems began focusing and charging. It was time to show the foolish challengers what true power was.

ooc: Just so you know, because of the tiny size of my fleet and the funds used to build them, a ship's classification and the general image of said class tend to differe quite a bit.

OOC: mind if i join?

"Sir, new contacts, a single destroyer, a couple smaller ships and numorus fighters. Much better technology then the people of this planet," the sensors officer reported.

"Can we take them?" the commander asked.

"Sure, we have them in numbers and power, and we are in good position to attack."

"ok, cut the act, lets come to full power and disable them. First take out offencive systems and fighters, then engines."

The 8 seamingly distressed ships suddenly put out huge amounts of power. The double layer sheilds came online, weapons were powered and the 4 main engines fired a full long burn, sending the small fleet towards the Star of Power and friends.

"Entering weapons range, firing first salvo."

The ships have 2 main weapons, the Mass To Plasma conversion weapons literaly vaporised any solid they hit. And the Blackbird torpedos were biuld to disable specific systems, by burrowing through the hull to the target before detonating.


The prepared destroyer, and the surrounding ships, were not surprised. Immediate fire was something they always prepared for, and, as such, they managed to evade most of the fire.

The Star of Power lost a minor engine, and two fighters were obliterated, but it was doubtful that the hideous creatures inside cared, indeed, they may have even enjoyed it.


Idiots. If you fight us, you'll be crushed between the planet and ourselves. Ally with us to fight them, and we'll take our due from the planet, and leave. We don't care about whatever long-term means this puny planet may have, we simply need supplies.


The Star of Power lazily drifted towards the Theao fleet, firing small globes of pure white energy, which would almost certainly disable them if they hit in a vulnerable spot, or at least knock down the shields.

The small fleet around it spread out, as the Pratian ships would pose no challenge, to such expensive and advanced fighters, but the Theaon fleet could, with luck, destroy them.


OC: this is the first four way battle i been in and you said you had 8 ships but there are about 1,000+ fighters and the mining fleet probably consists of destroyers up

OOC: Dude, I doubt that MINING ships are going to really make a huge difference. Compare it to a soldier with a gun, and a man with a pick, as you will. Oh, and Theao. My ship sizes are rather small, so its doubtful that my destroyer would be much larger than your frigate.

IC: The swarm of Pratians would soon surround them, and the best way to deal with such fighters, was, of course, to release the numerous drones.

[Drones Activated]
[Targets Locked]
[Secondary Targets Locked]
[Releasing Drones....]
[60% Released]
[Total Drones: 150]
[Current Drones: 80]

Drones, a small, automated suicide fighter, armed with a few units of minor weaponry, but mostly made use their devastating short-ranged PGT guns, which only had a range of a few metres, but would turn any small craft into slag within seconds. They are destroyed after four or so shots, due to the extreme backlash of the gun, but were cheap, and expendable...

i order all fighters to retreat to be refitted with a self destruct weapon and a EMP shield)

Also on the planet i mobilize all troops and start moving civilians to shelters, bunkers, and missile silos characteristic of the last world war (note each of the the missile silos have a 100megaton nuke and when launched it is set to detonate when attacked or hits shields or hull)

message to all missile silos (they were all decommissioned but due to the battle they now have personnel and there are about 200 on the planet) you are to launch your missiles at all confirmed enemy targets.

"Sir, multipule missile launches from fht planet's surface, they look like large ICBM type weapons," the sensors officer reported.

"So, large warhead, short range right?"

"Basicly sir, don't expect them to do anything, and if they do get close, the point defence MTPs will take care of them."

"Cool, so hows the take over going?" the Commander asked, turning to his tactical advisor.

"Well, we have captured almost 150 of the local's fighters, and they seam to be recalling the remainder, probably to fit them with self-destruct mechanisums or sheilding from the EMPs..."

(OOC: If you wish to change that number (the fighters captured) please feel free to do so, you hadn't said anything, so i came up with a reasonable number, considering how many fighters you had.)

IC: "and we have one unconfermed Blackbird that contacted with one of the more advanced ships. There was an explosion, and we wern't able to track the torp through it, but it was gone afterwards. Might be inside the ship, might not be. We'll find out soon enough."

"And your recommendation?"

"Slug forward and put a blackbird in that spacestation, if we can capture it then we'll have a huge advantage of being able to hold everyone on board there hostage. Also, along that same line, send the captured fighters to attack the fighter refitting station, see if they are willing to shoot at their own comrads."

"sounds good, lets do it."

One of the 'viral' torpedos had managed to latch onto the frigate, but was torn apart one of the ASs of the ship.

"Open a full point spread, target the G-Cannons on the largest, the plasma cannons and lasers on the mid-ships(battle cruisers), and barrage the quad(battleships) with class ones."

Each ship opened up in a hailstorm of coherant light, plasma rounds, G-rounds accelerated to near light, and swarms of missiles. The massed volume of fire streaked toward the 'Taliosa' rengades.

OOC: you captured or destroyed 250,000 small fighter 50,000 med fighters (i checked my fact book) also what about my planet defences they should be doing something to you ships (and don't say that they arnt doing anything if targeted on one ship they should have the power of one cruiser at any time)

On the spaceport thing: Enemy incoming prepare to initiate self destruct mechanisms as soon as they don't (about 200megaton nuke) and get all personnel to emergency escape pods. activate the Defence AI (the AI is programed to protect the station fem being captured at all costs and it is armed with 10,000 droid fighters, (now equipped with self destruct and EMP shielding) 100 phaser batteries, 50 torpedo batteries,(total battery power is about that of a frigate) station lock down, destruction of individual section with 10 tons of TNT, automated phasers (motion triggered) 1,000 droid soldiers, and the last resort before self destruct running a continuous 20,000 volts of electricity to kill any biological invaders.)

on prates airfields: arm all fighters with a extra 5 small nuke warheads (about 10 megatons) then launch them.

In space: battle continus with the fighters arriving in 5 min.

OOC: in order to mine you need to get the ore the qiuckest way to do that is with a energy beam theat wont destroy a certain molecular structure

note i just made my country borg but i hate rping as a borg so oh well

"More incoming fighters, sir," the sensors officer reported.

"Send out a large Plasma feild bomb at them, and keep sending Black bird torps in around the feild."

The Plasma Feild bombs were specaily made torpedos that created an expanding feild of plasma, or superheated gas, this gas would turn anything it touched into plasma also, making the feild bigger. The feild was powered from the bomb itself untill given the signal to shut off. Since anything shot at the bomb would be vaporized before reaching the bomb itself, it effectivly made a moving wall of death. A singe bomb was launched at the masses of approching fighters, it wasn't tracking so didn't appear to be a threat. But it would go off at the command of the ship.

"And more incoming fire sir, from the advanced guys. Their fleet about equals ours now."

The ship shook slightly as the fire impacted the outer sheilding layer.

"Shields holding, at 30%, generators are compensating now."

One thing about the sheilds is, the lower the power level of them, the power power you can dump into the arrays. This means that the closer they are to dropping, the more powerful they are, but there is also more strain on the generators. Because of this, the arrays typicly drop the sheilds at around 5 or 6%, to keep from overloading themselves.

"Return fire, it will be too difficult to capture those ships, consentrate the Blackbirds on the non-advanced station and aim to destroy the advanced ships."

ooc: What are you firing at me? It's hard to respond to simply Return Fire.

OOC: ya, you're the 'advanced' ships. Since you're more advanced then the other guy.

ooc: I know you're attacking me, I figured out I was the advanced ships, but What are you attacking me with, missiles/torpedos, plasma, lasers, what?

OOC: I kind of discribed my MTP weapons earlier, but let me put a more detaild discription down. Mass to Plasma weapons (MTP weapons) fire a ionized partical beam at a target followed by a huge burst of energy. The partical beam serves to giude the energy. Once the energy hits the target it, normaly, turns everything it touches to plasma. The plasma expands rapidly with explocive like effects, untill it cools to much to remain plasma and becomes random globs of metal zipping around.

The Blackbird torpedo is biuld to punch through sheilds (by a number of means) and then melts its way through the hulls of ships with a controled plasma feild. Once in a ship it uses the plasma feild along with little legs to crawl around till if finds the main computer, or a way to access it. (alternatly, till it finds the system to destroy and then it detonantes.) It can bore around for about 5 minutes before power runs out.

O


OOC: in order to mine you need to get the ore the qiuckest way to do that is with a energy beam theat wont destroy a certain molecular structure

l
OOC: Wouldn't that imply that it doesn't destroy metal? The beam probably wasn't designed with breaking through defensive shielding in mind, so...

about 20,000 fighters were destroyed before the fighters were ordered to tturn around and use a nuke to destroy it from a safe distance (a nuke from one of the fighters can destroy or vaporise the torpedo if i detonate it early.)

(there are ways to comphensate even when facing more advanced technology)

OOC: yes im inplying that it dosent destry metal but if in can be edited one why cant it be edited the other)

Once the nuke was launched the weapons commander gave the bomb its command to go off. The plasma feild began expanding rapidly as the nuke neared it. The nuke went off also, but the plasma feild absorbed the energy from the blast and swept through the blast area and continued on towards the fighters. The feild had now expanded to nearly a kilometer in size and still growing, to it would be difficult to go around it.

Meanwhile, the ex-Prate fighters, now under the Taliosian renagade's control, continued to attack the fighter bay's and stuff. The computer programing had diverted power away from life support, navigation and other unneeded placed and was only using weapons, sheilds, Engines and the gun camera as they attacked. On thing about them, the IFF(Identify Friend Foe)s remained untouched, so any one picking them up on sensors would get a friendly return, not an-enamy.

the fighter pilots in the captured craft broke into the emergency phaser compartment and began firing and destroyed all major systems thus rendering the ship useless and dead(ha no more captured fighters)

OOC even if the nuke went off early the resulting blast would divers the gas around the fighters into the atmosphere also...
"More incoming fighters, sir," the sensors officer reported.

"Send out a large Plasma feild bomb at them, and keep sending Black bird torps in around the feild."

The Plasma Feild bombs were specaily made torpedos that created an expanding feild of plasma, or superheated gas, this gas would turn anything it touched into plasma also, making the feild bigger. The feild was powered from the bomb itself untill given the signal to shut off. Since anything shot at the bomb would be vaporized before reaching the bomb itself, it effectivly made a moving wall of death.
sice its gas it should be expanding because of this fact i can deduce that it will constantly expand why dident it dissipate from getting to far from the tordedo or cool down.

on the space port thing: (computer talking) new program updated, fighter registry numbers confirmed, fire at these fighters... ,and these ships... target locked begin fireing sequence.

The corvettes used thier size to thier advantage, avoiding much of the 'beam' fire, while the shields took the rest of the 'beams'. They were focusing on destroying any fighters that attacked as well as those torpedos they could.

The three cruisers concentrated on the 'dread', focusing thier weapons on a small section of the shielding.

The frigate fired a laser at the PFB, and since it was non-material, it wouldn't be effected by the plasma.
It also opened fire on the other ships of the attacking fleet.

ooc: The ships are the guards of the mining fleet. The mining fleet ships are bigger.

OOC: theo it would be nice if you brng some capital ships in to end the battle quickly

ooc: I only have a total of 26 'capital ships', will step up the power thought.

OOC: theo it would be nice if you brng some capital ships in to end the battle quickly

OOC: Hehe, I should bring in a few capitals. Proper ones, too, not retrofitted renegade ones. Of course, that'd be considered an act of war, so...

Theao: after this battle (if i survive) can you give me some technology

OOC: plasma is ionized, so it can be contained (to a degree) by an EM feild. As more mass is added to the plasma it expands further from the EM feild, but still stays near it. And the bomb is still in the center, keeping it heated.

IC:

As soon as the fighter pilots started to look for the phasers on board, the cockpit openned and the pilot was blasted into space by the sudden decompression. (oops)

Onboard the Hope and Future the Dreadnaught, the outer layer of sheilding collapsed. But the inner one stabilized, even under the fire from 3 cruisers, at 40%. The dread accelerated between 2 of the cruisers, so close that point defence weapons on both ships began exchanging fire. Before either of the cruisers coule begin an escape burn, the 8 blackbird launch tubes on either side fired and the 32 guns on either side discharged a round into the sheilds.

The PBF suddenly changed direction, just as the light based weapon was fired, then began accelerating towards the spacestation with the intent of carving a huge hole through it before it's power ran out.

The flag ship of the Renagade fleet was the Prosparity one of the Batteships, as it was the newest in the fleet. Onboard the commander was barking out orders.

"Get their ships between us and that spacestation for now. Once we deal with the advanced guys we can take over the station. consentrate all fire on that cruiser (the one not fired at by the dread), then let's just sweep our fire left and take out the rest."

OOC except for the fact the the pilots have seat belts and 20 seconds of consciousness the fighters haven't been destroyed(no they are just floating junk)

IC: prates defence center: fire all available phaser cannons at the bomb at a trajectory so it will also hit the enemy craft.

fighters you are ordered to stay on the night side of prates. and go around just in case the bomb still follows you

prates space center(equivalent of cape kennedy just more advanced): launch the missile and deploy the smart mine(they will oly blow up in the presese of enemy craft degnated by a serial number)

Computer on station talking: brace defenses breached... loosing power... must stay online at any cost.. activate backup generator and solar collectors...launch droids and mines

bump

With the 'long' range of the point defense systems, the dread was getting hit hundreds of times as it got within range. As the dread neared the cruisers, they split apart, while continuing to pound fire into the dread. The dread's attack managed to buckle the shielding on one of the cruisers, while the BB torpedos were shredded.

The frigate set an auto-fire laser on the PBF. The laser both tracked and lead it's shots as it fired at the PBF.
The frigate continued to pound the battlecruisers.

The cruiser had moved in reaction to the dread, it being between the cruisers and the 'renegades', they continued to pound the dread.

The corvettes focused all fire on one of the battleship.

as the fighters finihed going around the planet they reentered the battle as started theping theao with the battleship by fireing nukes and phasers

The captain watched as the Hope and Future Extracted itself from the battle with only 8% sheilds left. The battleship were taking a pounding, its last sheild layer on the verge of collapsing.

"This is going no where. Are there any other friendly ships neary by?"

There was a moment's pause.

"yes sir, the Peacemaker and escorts are in the next system over."

The Peacemaker is a combanation Factory ship and carrier. It produced so called 'super-fighters' which were state of the art fighters that are piloted by a very advanced AI. The only real downside is that they are difficult to make and require a lot of resources and time.

"what's her current compliment?"

"She lost alot in the last battle with Taliosa Loysists, although she's biulding more now. looks like.. about 40% capasity, around 80 ships."

The ship shook suddenly as the sheilds took a hit from one of the larger weapons.

"Call her in, let's pull back out of range of these non-advanceds."

The Renagade ships began a quick pull back, hoping to exit the operational range of the Prate fighters, mainly to save them for later salvage.

Minutes later the Peacemaker would appear in the system, a large contact, along with a 2 battleship and 5 destroyer escort. She would then start launching the 80, mostly stealth, superfighters, equiped for anti-ship operations. They would each have 2 blackbird torpedos, along with 4 skipper anti-ship missiles.

The skippers would burn their engines long and hard, pulling around 80 Gs, the shut them down, and activate their camo, which would make it difficult for most sensors to pick them up. It would pulse it's scanners every couple seconds to see if the target is still there. If not, it will drop the camo, make another burn and raise it again. If the missile impacted sheilding, it would detonate with about 20 kilotons of force, focused directly at the sheilds. If it hit hull, it would act like a Plasma Feild Bomb, and vaporise the ship.

As the skipper missiles were fired, the defense systems began tracking them, using extrapolation based on angle, speed, sensor pulses and other relevent data, and filled thier paths with thousands of projectiles, which would cause them to be destroyed by thier own speed.

Meanwhile the fleet continued to pound the 'renegades', while the one cruiser managed to re-boot thier shielding.

i order all fighters to start falling back to re fuel and re arm and also i order the defence batteries to increase power to the phasers by 100% ans while it would slow the rate of fire by 50% it would do some damage to the enemy sheilds.

The newer ships, with untouched sheilds jumped infront of the ones that had been their for awhile, and added their own firepower to that of the ones that were pounding the cruiser.

The sensors onboard the Skippers noticed the non-target objects in its path and changed it's trajectory, normaly to safty. A few of them were not able to change their path enough, and were shreaded by the projectials. Although, for most weapons, this would cause a huge explosion, not so for these. There was no outward sign that they had been hit. The camo continued to operate on the damaged weapons till they were too far away to be noticed.

The renagades continued pulling back, just to besure they were out of the range of the Prate fighters. There was an asteroid feild nearby that the Renagades seamed to be retreating towards, probably the same one they started out in.

As the renegades fled to the field, the frigate captain grinned, they were screwing themselves over and didn't know it.

Meanwhile the others continued to shred the fighters and continuing on extrapolation, targetted the skipper missiles.

ooc: Which cruiser?

with the fighters refueled and rearmed they took off in the direction of the asteroid belt to help the phasers destroy them as soon as the enemy ships passed through

bump

OOC: the one that they had been attacking...

As the renagades approched the feild power signatures began to appear. It was hard to say if they were just sensor ghosts or real things at first, untill powerful MTP beams began lashing out, attacking any enamy ships that came near. They had turned the asteroides into a safe haven before they had left them.

The renagades passed into the belt, and the asteroids themselves began moving. They formed a wall of MTP turrets between the two fleets. Let's just say that it would not be wise to stay in the firing solution of all these turrets.

Meanwhile, the skippers finaly impacted. Huge explosions were channled directly at the sheilds of the enamy ships. It was also about now when the superfighters came into range, and they revealed their main weapon. The reason they were called 'superfighters' was partly because of the complex AI piloting the thing, partly because of the adapting sheilding, and partly because of the Gravity Inversion weapon (called the GI gun my some).

This operates on the same princaple as the MTP cannon, but instead of turning mass to plamsa, the weapon inverts the gravitational/electrical pull of the object, blowing it apart by it's own size. This inversion only lasts a moment, but it's enough to cause even the strongest armor to lose cohesion and scatter.

The GI guns began to pulse and fire as they 80 superfighters neared their targets. 60 had been sent to the advanced ship fleet, and the other 20 towards the non-advanced station.

(OOC: the GI gun, like the MTP cannon, is badish against sheilds, but is devistating against hull. Just so you know it isn't godmoding... ;) ..)

The three cruisers preformed a 'micro-jump' arriving on the far side of the planet, where they began doing repairs/re-activation.

As the skipper missiles hit the shields, the captain began laughing, "They're attacking us with pop-gun missiles, that's pathetic, we use those as mid-level ground weapons."

As the 'superfighters' attacked, the PDs opened fire on the fighters. THe massed volumes of corvette and frigate point-defense rounds/lasers arced out toward the fighters.

all fighters thata evacive manuvers! all phaser batteries fire! anunch all remaining ICBM's (these ICBM's have prototype sheilding and sensors developed for use of the advances AI to modulate at will. there are 50)
prepare to destroy those asteroids! fire! (they should be enough to destroy your sheilds and eventualy the hull

With only the ICBMs to target, the advanced ships having jumped off, the masses of MTP turrets on the asteroids turned their attention to the incoming ICBMs.

superfighter attack on advanceds: the fighters menuved so quickly that there almost never was a turret pointing at them, or sensors locked on. The fighters systematicly began attacking sheilds, aiming for weapons arrays, even though their wepaons hit the sheilds.

superfighter attack on non-advanceds: the fighters attacking in formation, then suddenly broke off as weapons fire rushed out to meet them. The fighters easily outmanuvered the less advanced fighters getting behind them, and pounding them with GI guns.

The massed voloume of PD fire would make it impossible for the fighters to attack, if they ever attempted to attack they'd be blown apart by the defenses.

Once the cruisers had re-activated the full systems, they returned to battle, making sure to keep out of range of the asteroids.

no i just want to get in range for me to fire 1,000,000 nukes at the things
all fighter ignore enemy fighters then fire.
3..2...1... FIRE!!!
all fighters retreat
losses 100,000 med fighters 350,000 light fighters for a total of 1,050,000 nukes (don't tell me you destroyed all of them because there are 1,050,000 space equivalent of cruise missiles and 200 shielded ICBMs)

Bump

OOC: sry, I was out of town temporarly... don't ask

IC:

The nukes streaked in just as the advanced guys appeared, although they were still out of range of the asteroids, they were in the path of the nukes. Although the defence had already been prepared, a number of PFBs were sitting, dormate, in the path of the Nukes, ready to be set off to vaporises any and all that try to pass them.

For those that did get through, they would be shot at by the tons of MTP turrets. Dispite all of these defences, they weren't expecting to stop every single one, they were just trying to look like they were. The asteroides were blocking all attempts to see behind them where the renagade fleet would be, but really didn't have anywhere to go, anything warping out of there would be seen.

OOC: just a note, for future referance (don't use this IC)... we don't have warp, we jump, which is only detectable if you see either the point of entry or the point of exit.

The Defunaikan Patrol flew through the void of space. In the squad, there was a detection ship, along with 2 fighters, each armed with anti-dreadnought weaponry. The Detection Ship pulled out of the warp, and the captain looked out the forward window, and saw a beautiful blue planet, the only disturbance was a swarm of fighters seeming to retreat from a group of larger ships. The Captain ordered the two fighters to dock on port and starboard hatches as he intercepted one of the fighters signals. "Pull Back! Pull Back! All Forces pull ba-" The Hectic Retreat Was followed by that fighters destruction. The Captain Radioed to one of the larger Ships, Unidentified, and inquisitively asked "This Is Defuniakan Border Patrol, we seem to have strayed from our course, may we ask for our coordinates? Also, what is happening here?"...

we just discovered fasst then light flight but because of this we have attracted a group of diplomats and some renegates any help would be appreciated.

OOC: i didn't loose all of my fighters only about 200,000/ 500,000 med fighters and 500,000/1,000,000 light fighters
