The jump was made forces were left behind to defend the Empire and Luca was going to be handeled by the Abh.

The ships cruised threw warp as the droped out of warp with the allied fleets they saw it. The Deatharon Fleets.... Grand Admiral Rei smiled as she waited for the Allied ships to come out of warp and form up.

A message was sent There they are....The Deatharon Devils. They kill a child Emperor....We will show them and their allies that their acts wont go unpunished. Destroy them and drive them from the border!! Our allies tommrow we will drink to victory!!

The Neo Zetan ships were 2 mintues from fireing range...


OOC: Now i wait for a good bit of my allies to post and Deatharon.

It had taken several days, but when the word had gotten around that the Republic was going to war, and that Deatharon was the key target, the Protectorate had launched all their new ships to help protect the Deatharon Empire.

It was a large fleet, roughly 1500 starships, tho much smaller than the other nations ships, ants to the others, they stilled packed a punch; and sometimes, numbers work better than power, hopefully this would be one of those times.

Arriving in the system, they saw the massive invasion fleet, and they moved towards the Deatharon fleet to reinforce them and push back the Zetan menace.

Reaver made the jump and jumped right to the head of the Neo Zeta fleet....
Reaver now had a reason to kill. When he finished the jump, he could see the Deatharon fleets, this would be his chance to kill, and kill he would... in a single shot....

but he waited... He wanted to see what the Neo Zeta ships would do...

The Supreme Adrimal Hvei the leader of the Antaran White Fleet was ready for the dreaded Neo Zetan Invasion. The Empire had been excepting Neo Zeta to try and exterminate all life in the Galaxy. The Supreme Adrimal gave his orders:
Antaran Black Fleet activate the mines in your sector the Neo Zetans may beat us back but we will give them such losses that there allies and them will rememeber our valor and bravery.

The Mines were activated around the stragetic areas on the border soon hundreds of anti matter mines would head towards enemy ships while the two Antaran fleets pound into the invadeing forces waiting for the Imperial First Fleet and Imperial Thrid Fleet to reinforce them. The Imperial Second Fleet was going to help the Republic on a massive strike on the Neo Zetan Doth System.

OOC: Last post for a few hours.

The fleet moved closer and closer, and marvelled at the display that the mines gave.

Admiral McForn was leading the assualt from the command ship the Protectorate, named after the glorious new Nirsian government. He gave his orders.

All ships take up positions near the Deatharon vessels and open fire on the Zetans and their allies. Full torpedoes and blasters.

Reaver could feel the power spike from the mines activation. It worried him.
He scanned the area, and sure enough it was what he expected...mines.
Thousands of them. Reaver could destroy them, but still he waits to see what his allies where going to do...

The Empire had made the first move in the conflict, and Deatharon was paying for it. But the Galactic Empire of Taledonia would not abandon their allies, oh no, they would go to aid the Deatharon forces, and break the Zetan attack.

It didn't take long for the eight fleets to arrive in the system, and even less time for them to take up positions near the allied Republican fleets.

Onboard the Empires most advanced ship, the Defiance, Admiral Galerius stood looking out the window at the just starting battle. He peered over at the ships surrounding him.

The 8 Battle Cruisers, the flagships of each fleet. The 64 Destroyers, 128 Frigates, 16 Carriers, and 28 support frigates.

As the fleets came within firing range of the Zetans and their allies, they opened up, putting on a formidable lightshow for all to see as the space between the two forces filled with turbo lasers, energy cannons, energy torpedoes, and the newly arriving TF-20 fighters pouring out of the fleets.

OOC: I am waiting for 2 to three of my other allies to post befor i do. So if its awhile befor i post dont go to fare ahead.

Reaver jetted out of the laser barrage and began to counter attack. Reaver charged his Nova and blasted it towards the attacking forces. The nova blast screamed through the open space, cutting small holes in the fabric of space. reaver was sure it would make them think twice before they ppulled another stunt like this.

The way he aimed the nova blast was either the flett take the hit or The planet closest to them take the hit. Either way someone was going to die.....


OOC: the Nova blast is not GM if you want to cry about it. Read to N.S. war part 2 it was use to take out 15 corvette ships in one hit...

The blast slammed into the energy shields of several starships, weakening them, and destroyed many torpedoes and fighters that got caught in the path.

OOC... at parital charge..... but thats ok... it works. :)

The Abh fleet of 800 vessels came out of Space Time and moved to engage sector 12 of the Deatharon border. Admiral Trife looked as the area was lightly guarded.

"Have half of the Frontline ships hold positions and prepare for mine attack. I want the Attack Vessels to go and scout the area. They are to report any signs of the enemy. They are not to engage any heavy vessels, only frigates and fighters at this time. I want the Guardships and Patrolships on the fringes of the boarder ready to attack and lend aid when needed."

100 Frontlineships opened their ports ready to fire a barrage of mines into enemy territory and they could also be launched as a defense against incoming fire. It was a nice little bonus to such technology.

200 Attack Vessels launched into enemy territory with anti-proton cannons armed and ready. Laser cannons were at maximum power as they scouted for enemy wereabouts.

The Guard and Patrolships loaded their electromagnetic rifles and prepared to fire. The Guardships also fueled their mines for defense. The Patrolships would have to save theirs for when they were deeper into enemy territory.

The Kahanistan fleet set a course for the nearest Deatharon base using the information they had obtained from Zeta Intelligence. After docking many of their passengers at the Zeta base the fleet still carried 40,000 support, 15,000 Imperial Marines and 100,000 Republic Guard ground troops in addition to the ships' usual crews.

The Imperial Marine commander, Lt. Gen. Hamed bin Jamal, a vicious, bloodthirsty man, paced the floor of his quarters on the RKS Jupiter.

"Stuck in my quarters when I should be biting open the throats and drinking the blood of those lamb-raping capitalist heathens," he thought. "Well, maybe the Deatharon will be stupid enough to try to board our ship."

An explosion sounded. General bin Jamal opened his door and collided with a tall black woman he barely recognized. About 35, he thought, and wearing a Captain's insignia. He fumbled mentally for her name. "Captain... Larson?" he asked. "What in heaven is happening?"

Captain Lashonda Larson stared at the surly General as if he had just spoken to her in Chinese. "What do you think is happening? We're under attack! That wasn't a Deatharon's fart you heard out there, you know!" she said harshly. Before bin Jamal could process what she had said, she was gone, through the thick door that said BRIDGE. He followed her. Protocol be damned, he had been cooped up on that ship for days, treated as common cargo and he had put up with it as best as he could. The door slammed behind him. But he could hear everything on the bridge through the door.

"Deatharon warship, unknown class name. Its weaponry is of a type unfamiliar to us."

Captain Larson's voice. "Well, didn't we get that kind of information from Zeta Intelligence?"

"Negative, Captain. The Deatharon ship is firing missiles. Shields down to 67%."

"Evasive action. Set heading to 313 mark 87, try to hug the Al-Haraam's position. Comm, open a channel to the Al-Haraam, we have taken fire."

"The Al-Haraam is firing on the Deatharon ship. The Deatharon ship's shields are fluctuating, but we can't tell how badly we've damaged it or if that's a normal part of operation for those shields. The Al-Haraam took a hit on its left front quarter, reports its shields are at 90%."

"Break contact from the Al-Haraam and move closer to the Deatharon ship. Ready disruptors and KEW's, we'll try to board it once its shields drop. Have 300 Marines and 2,000 Republic Guards on standby for boarding action."

General bin Jamal smiled. Maybe, he thought, this woman did know how to command better than her age would suggest.

OOC: Prob last post tell tommrow or a bunch of my allies post

IC: The incomeing mines were seen as the first major threat. As fighters luanched and Jem'Hadar attack craft readyed to engage Republic ships the large ships loaded their mines and in defense fired them at incomeing mines.

The battlefield lit up as mines hit each other exploding in a bright blaze. Some came threw and hit Neo Zetan ships. The smaller ships were destroyed by the mines as the larger ones took shield and or small hull damage.

But as some of Deatharons mines made it threw so did some of Neo Zetas.

As the mine threat was being dealt with the Battlecruisers and Battleships opened fire with their long range weapons targeting Taledonia's Frigates.

The Small Capital ships readyed to engage Deatharon forces as the advanced fireing their missles and their lighter mines.

Mobile Suits were ready to engage enemy mobile suits if they were used.

The battle was even however Neo Zeta expected the numbers advantage would fall with them soon. Torpedos and disrupters as well as heavy Jem'Hadar ships waited untell they were closer to be used.

After a scan of the attacker, Admiral Galerius was pleased to hear that the powerful thing called "Reaver" was biological, meaning organic. A large smile formed on his face as he thought about the destruction of the Zetans most powerful ally as of yet.

Fire an Angel at that thing.

Yes, sir. Closet Battle Cruiser is the Insolent Minx.

The orders were transfered, and the Insolent Minx took aim on the Reaver. From the front of the vessel, came the giant blast of blue light, the small white "angels" inside the beam dancing around playfully as the beam surged towards the target. The crystal angel blast envelopped the thing, and would erase it from the universe.

(OOC: I'll explain Crystal Angels on the OOC thread.)

Reaver watched as the battle began to escalate. It was about time he showed so real power. Reaver backed away from the fight and postioned himself to luanch his next blast this time at full charge....

He started to draw in energy from the universe around him His wings open wide and glowing. The energy gathering He chraged his Nova blast to full chrage.... He was going to blow the whole fleet away.... the strain was great from the power gathered from the charge up. A ball began to form close to Reavers mouth. It grew, and grew. The ball was one of noticable size. And with one great shot the ball was off to its target....The planet

OOC: the atack would have been absorbed by the wings for the last attack-
Oh and who ever said Reaver was a Biological mech unit. I will get the biomech thredas out for you. to explian a little about biomechs.

(OOC: Shouldn't you be dead from my attack?)

(OOC: Christopher Thompson did, he said you used it before and told me it was a Biomech.)

OOC: I would not trust Chris thomas. I have heard bad things about him, but the attack would not have had any effect, you said it your self- if its not organic it is uneffected- Remember- I never said Reavers biomech was biological.

A Single ship hurtled out of Hyperspace, followed by Almost Fifty Others. Immidietly one stood out from the rest, looking almost like a massive whale in its form. This was the command ship, Jurikmar, a ship of small size, only Three Kilometers long. Those surrounding it where even smaller, Mostly they ranged into the Seven Hundred Meter Range. Three where A Kilometer in length.

This may have seemed strange to many combattents, who would have made ships as large as they could. But the effectivness of these craft was Far superior to the enemy.

These thoughts Circals through General Munkar's head, as he watched his forces begin to spread out of formation to engage the enemy. Looking back he pointed to one of the driods, with a mechanical voice spoke.

"You, Wake the Mind, we have work to do!" he began turned back to the veiw screen before him. Had he lips to smile, he would have.

The Smaller ships began to engage. Plasma engaged off their decks as sheilds soaked up fire. Most fire was, mabey incorrectly, directed at ships that where larger. The Plasma that launched off these ships hunted out its targets with ruthless efficiency.

The Four Bigger ships on the other hand, began to awaken the minds. AI units far superior to anything humanity had created. While the Minds Awoke however, they let loose trail after trail of plasma.

A moment later, the Minds where awake.

Munkar: Good Time Fleet.

Jurikmar: Proceeded General, we have a battle underway, do not engage us any longer then Nessersary.

Munkar: Very well, your to begin attacks apon the enemy ships. Attack those of average size, we do not wish to wipe them out compleatly in this battle.

Jurikmar: Understood, Gridfire units Online.

A series of Gridfire shots went offline, materialising inside the Enemy fitting the shape of the ships outer hull to pristine Perfection.

Is this acceptable?

Munkar: Highly, now, as well as this, all ships are to move into position to begin Landing operations. We are superior on the ground, lets allow our troops to land.

Jurikmar: Engines Online, Gridfire Operations halted until power strain is less, Firing with Plasma weapons.

Munkar: Let us begin.

OOC: Looks like some little guy somehow has huge-ass ships, which he can apparently spare from his nation, as all his people are at peace, happy, and love each other, as well as being downright deadly in combat. Try to be a little realistic, mmkay? You're small, you have what are quite large craft, and no, your craft aren't "far superior". They're, at most, average. If you're lucky.
Also, please declare who you're firing upon. We don't automatically know which side you're on, and we're not mind-readers.

IC: The fifty ships, most smaller than a hundred metres, which, was, of course, large in its own right, opened fire, the linked Blast cannons firing pulses of red energy, which could rip through shields and armour alike with supreme ease, although it had cost much. Indeed, a fleet of one thousand ships could easily be fielded for the same price, although these ships carried the pride of the Realm within them, and were, indeed, an excellent chance to "show off" the capabilities of the Realm. If nothing else, it would discourage any would-be invaders, as this was but a tiny portion of what the newly-formed League had to offer.

"Activating inner FTLi generators. No damned teleportation fire's going to get through our hulls today."

The resident AI, Illyriuth, on the Star of the Morning-class frigate, had suddenly noticed the activation of new minds, those similiar to his own. He investigated them, and dismissed them contemptously, putting them beneath his notice. He had important matters to attend to, now. He split his consciousness, and sent a minor, probing thought towards the new ones, informing them that they had best stay out of his way, as he had work to attend to, and did not wish to interrupted by petulant children.

Meanwhile, the ships fired on. The human captains, whom all had been picked for their grudge against the Republic, and, in particular, Taledonia and Deatharon, quickly directed the AIs to fire on targets of both those nations, concentrating the fire they had available for them, mainly on Taledonian ships, which had Crystal Angel cannons, as they well knew the deadliness of those weapons. Although a shield capable of deflecting their fire had been invented, it was far too cost-prohibitive to equip, unless they were facing solely Taledonian ships.

The cannons on the Star of the Morning all swivelled, and pointed in the same direction, all aimed, with extreme prejudice, at the Taledonia Crystal Angel cannons.

"Fire!"

Each of the linked cannons let off huge blasts of energy, ripping their way through space, and homed in on the CAs, as each captain feared for his life, not that the fleet would be that badly effected by the loss of the humans, but the captains would be affected, no doubt about that...

OOC HT, I never mentioned OOC that I was superior, only IC, please Remember that if I state it IC, it doesn't nessersarily mean I write from the Perspective of myself OOC.

And for your point on Who i am firing on, sorry, I am on Neo Zeta's side, thus your side. And can you please get on MSN, some things need Explaining.

IC post when I have an enemy against me.

As the blue HTs collapsed, the 4 gunships and 3 carriers emerged. They moved to form a flat, horizontal line(segment if you want to be exact). Then, they began the bombardment of the enemy fleet.

The HT bombardment slammed into the energy shielding on the Battle Cruisers. It was a known fact that the Realm disliked Taledonians, and would take any chance they could get to shed the golden blood. But if they wanted a fight, then they would get it.

We could fire on them sir, but they always have AI's running their ships.

Galerius thought of what to do. The energy cannons and the other fire of the fleet was already being used on the Zetans and their allies, and more specifically the Realm vessels now since they were close, but what else could he do? He could just sit there and let the two fleets bash each other with fire until one of them arises victories, but then the losers allies would pick off the winner.

Activate warp.

Yes, Admiral.

The fleet disappeared in a flash, and reappeared behind the Realm fleet, tho still staying away from their allies. They now had an advantage, if only for a short time, but they would exploit it as much as possible. The entire fleet fired everything at the Realm vessels, concentrating on the largest vessels first.


The fighters that had been launched saw the fleet warp to behind the Realm fleet, so they did what they always did in a situation like that. They turned and went to engage the Realm ships.

Many bombers had been launched also, and with an escort of two fighters each, they did periodic bombing runs; just skimming the surface of the realm ships to avoid their shielding and dropping their high energy explosives onto the hulls directly.


The matter had become more personal that official when the Realm had come to the battle. Ever since they bombarded the remains of Taledon after it was destroyed, almost all the military personel swore they would take vengence on those responsible for making things that much worse when things were already terrible.

tag, just assume Avisron is firing off cover now, i'll make more IC posts later.

The Neo Zetan fleet seeing the Taledonia fleet change postions saw a chance to break Deatharons fleets.

With their main cover gone the Zetan fleet engaged their fold drives and folded into the middle of the Deatharon fleet. Once they they opened fire with everything they had as fighters did as well.

The other allied fleets not engaged in close range combat were ordered to surrond Deatharons fleets to cut off escape.

Any damaged ships would either flee or ram enemy ships

The disrupter banks fired with all their furry as their torpedos fired as fast as they were loaded. They wernt going after the bigger ships but trying to take out more numbers then size. Fighters and lighter ships were the main target as well as some key capital ships. If they destroyed the smaller ships then Deatharon would be left with little cover to aid their larger ships.

Tho loses of Neo Zetas side were also expected to be high.

MAC shells flew at the enemy vessels as Odysseus's fleet joined the raging battle. Lasers, plasma, Quantum, and Photon torpedoes joined the salvo of weapons fire.

The report came back from the Attack Vessels and Major Kayhul handed the report to Admiral Trife. The Major watched the Admiral as he read it, trying to gauge his reaction. "Sir, it seems that the enemy has not noticed us and the Attack squadron reports that our route to the target is clear."

The Admiral nodded as he read it all. "Have the Frontlineships that are ready to fire their mines reposition themselves at location gama-05 here." The Admiral points to the halo map where Neo Zeta is engaging Deatharon forces. "Have the Frontlineships fire a wave of mines to lend aid to the Zetans."

"Right away Sir."

The Frontlineships launched a volley of mines at the Deatharon fleet. Hundreds of mines streaked across space leaving a blue trail going to aid the Zetans.

The Taledonians had left to keep the Realm fleet off of Deatharon, but now the Zetans and the rest of their allies had started swarming the Deatharon fleets. It was time to make more aggressive efforts.

Activating full impulse thrusters, the Nirsian fleet sped towards the surrounded Deatharon fleet. They fired their blasters and torpedoes as they cut into the lines of intermingled Deatharon and Zetan ships; which wasn't hard to do since the Nirsian vessels were alot smaller than the others.

The Protectorate passed by what looked like the Zetan capitol ship and fired it's blaster. The large green beam of light flew from the starship into the bridge of the Zetan vessel; and this repeated for three times before the Protectorate passed out of sight of the bridge, but it continued to fire on the other parts of the vessel.

The battle raged with ships fireing back and forth. As the ship being attacked by the Protectorate to major damage its capitan ordered a statues reports

" Damage report!"

The first officer looked at the holo screen scared as this was the first time for her to be in battle

" Main guns offline... Torpedo tubs 1-3 offline and 4 is totaly gone. Shields down to 12%. Hull breech is sections 43 and 44 B"

The Capitan looked at a near by Deatharon Capital ship. " By god we wont go down alone"

He smiled " Full power to engians ram that damn thing out of space.!!"

The Engians of The Fayth Battlecruiser went online at full power as it moved threw space being hit many times however it was so close that even destroying it would not stop the hull from hitting the ship dead on.

The ship slammed into the Deatharon ships killing all crew on both ships.

This wasnt uncommon for Deatharon or Neo Zeta to use ramming. Befor the Battle was over there for sure would be more.

But now Neo Zeta cought on to this threat of the Small ships. 30% of The Jem'Hadar Attack ships in the fleet were ordered to engage them along with fighters to deal with the threat.

Loses were mounting on both sides.

"There has been a development" said Captain Evere "Tellon and Verule, move to fire at the main body of the Nirsian attack, be careful with your shots. All other ships, move to engage the Taledonians" as 1 flight of fighters and bombers launched from the Tellon and flew with it to the Nirsian ships.

The Exchange Modified Star Destroyer*, “Frog” maintained its position well beyond the fighting as the battle progressed, the privateering vessels surrounding it. Unlike the cosmopolitan makeup of the rest of the fleet, the “Frog was manned entirely by Ihrens and droids.
From a comfortable chair on the bridge of the “Frog“, Lrol Hiln, the rather overweight Head Boss and property owner of the Ihrentan Exchange, peered out at the life or death struggle taking place before him. Quietly, Captain Veip, commander of the “Frog” and charged with disseminating orders to the privateers, approached the crime boss.
“What are your orders for the fleet, boss?”
Hiln’s stalk eyes closed as he spoke, “Tell them to remain in position until the order is given to move out. They know what to do.”

*Essentially a star destroyer without any weaponry except for some AA defense. The weapons were removed to make room for three extra docking bays and extensive cargo holds that take up most of the ship. Its lack of weaponry is made up for by an impressive shield defense network far superior to that of the normal Star Destroyer.

It was time to take some more extensive actions to deal with the Realm. From the Battle Cruiser Alfeis came the massive blue beam from the angel cannon, targetted a a nearby Realm ship, a rather large ship.

In one of the many hangers of the Cruiser, a bording party of 500 shocktroopers was being assembled to go out and take over the now uncrewed ship and dismantle the AI system, giving the Republic control of the vessel.

"Fire!" said Evere as the ships were now in position. A bombardment of rail gun projectiles, energy weapons(such as plasma cannons and "Booms") were launched at the Taledonians.

Annoying buggars aren't they, these allies of the Zetans. Oh well, have the few frigates closest to them turn their attention and take them out.

Yes, Admiral, relaying orders now.

Yes, Admiral, relaying orders now.

"Send out a fighter-bomber flight," and 10 fighter-bomber launched from the carrier bays, backed up by the velocity of the moving carriers.

As the fighter bombers made their way towards the Taledonian ships, scorch marks appeared into their hulls as a few energy blasters hit them. A group of 18 TF-20 fighters flew in at increadible speed to intercept the bombers, and launched many missiles and fired their blasters many times to take them out.

"Let's show these nesters how things work" as the fighter-bombers split into spokes that moved away from the path of the enemy fighters but continued towards the enmy fleet.

Split up, two on each, the rest of you break and start picking off other bogeys.

Lt. Lock spun his fighter around and took off in persute of one of the bombers. He pulled the trigger, his energy blasters blazing rapidly at the enemy vessel.

"Oh, they have a bite" said the pilot of the fighter-bomber attacked by Lt. Lock as the rear cannon began firing.

The blue bubble appeared briefly everytime the enemy ship hit around the fighter. Lock took evasive manuevers and spun his craft down, then quickly aiming back up he started in a direct rout of interception, firing his blasters at the bottom of the bomber. This time however, he let loose two missiles that locked on to the enemy craft and started trailing after it.

"You sir, are a fool" as the rear cannon took out the missiles...and another fighter-bomber launched a missile at Lock from an intercept course from (in the first ones orientation) the rear, having approached during the chaos.

Lock spun and tried to outrun the missile, but it was shot down by his partner. The two now took off after the one bomber Lock was following, while two others went after the one that had attacked Locks fighter.

"Gotta go. Say hello to the bombardment for me" as the fighter-bombers icnreased their speed to avoid the bombardment which was just about to hit. (Our pilots are suicidal)

Admiral Trife watched the battle unfold from the safety of his flagship. "Send a squadron of Attack Vessels in to help the Zetans fight off the fighters."

Hecto-Commander Atosuryua's squadron was chosen since they were already veterans and the most experienced. The twenty ships arrived at the scene and paired off in groups of 4 making them more effective and harder to destroy.

Atosuryua brought the vessel around on a fighter making a run at a Zetan cruiser. "I want the anti-proton cannon at full strength. Now lock onto the fighter."

"Cannon ready ma'am."

"Fire!"

The attack squadron of the Abh picked their targets and used the anti-proton cannon to bring them down.

They wanna race do they? They will never outrun a Taledonian ship, speed is our specialty!

The fighters kicked in to full speed and caught up to right on the tails of the enemy bombers. Blasters blazing, they targetted the enemies back blasters first, and then started on the hull.

"Well we're here" as the fighter-bombers split up into the Taledonian fleet as the bombardment came "And increase the power to the rear cannons before they take down the shields. We're in the hornet's nest."

The Antaran Fleets had taken decent losses but now the Imperial First Fleet and Imperial Third Fleet had arrived. The Thrid Fleet led by Fantical Adrimal Sarin head towards the Abh Fleet fire wave after wave of missile and point Singularty fire. The Imperial First Fleet led by Grand Adrimal Dylan Hunt reinforces the Antaran Ships and attacks the Neo Zetan monsters. The Antarans are fighting like a traped animal some are even ramming there ships into enemy ships just to slow them down. The Anti-matter mines stop following and now high powered Alpha Class Warhead missiles are being fired upon the Neo Zetan ships. The Deatharon Captians are orderd to defend the Antaries Galaxy from extermination which they would do to there last breath.

"New orders: Disrupt the fleet mainly strking against Neo Zeta's forces. Hit and run, there's too many" as the gunship and carrier altered course.

The Kahanistan fleet continued its push toward its enemies.

That ship must have been testing our resolve. We haven't heard hide nor hair of Deatharon in two days. Are they really so reluctant to engage us? But our intelligence has picked up that the Taledon fleet is very active as of late. Maybe we should pick on them for a change.

Suddenly, a disruptor shot from the rear of the RKS Al-Haraam shattered General al-Aziz's train of thought. Now? Taledon ships? Here?

He had no time to process this thought, as the call over the intercom revealed.

"General, we have a hull breach in the rear of the ship! Estimated losses 300 crew members, 400 marines, and 1,200 soldiers, as well as the contents of Cargo Bays Alpha 1 to 6 and Beta 3 to 5."

Damn! The flagship!

"Computer, engage emergency bulkheads. Raise shields, arm disruptors, and for God's sake, identify our attacker."

Who the hell programmed this computer with a Scottish accent?

"Immerrgenciih b'lkheds n'gayged. Sheelds 't 42%. D'sruptas 't 14%. It's a Taledon bulk-cruiser, unnown specifications."

General al-Aziz frantically opened a channel to the fleet and any Allied ships in the region.

"This is General Abu Hamza al-Aziz commanding the Kahanistan flagship RKS Al-Haraam. We have sustained severe battle damage and incurred massive casualties. To all Kahanistan and allied ships available, we require immediate assistance. Al-Haraam out." He set the ship's distress signal to repeat every 15 seconds and picked up his sidearm. He waited for the boarders he was sure would come.

Meanwhile, outside:

The RKS Giza saw the flagship take damage. Its young, inexperienced captain ordered her ship to move in and surprise the attacker. A novice at naval combat, she had never gotten used to thinking in three dimensions in battle. So far, Captain Goldstein had been lucky. This time, however, she would not.

"Help the flagship. Get a missile lock on that Taledon cruiser." The KEW's, with 100 MT of kinetic energy, propelled at the Taledon ship, which evaded them effortlessly.

"G-d dammit!" she swore. "We're out of KEW's, get a disruptor lock on it. Fire wide beam."

The disruptor barely grazed the Taledon ship, which fired its own disruptors from below. The resulting explosion and hull breach in the bridge was the last thing Captain Michelle Goldstein saw before she and her bridge staff were incinerated in the fiery abyss of Taledon disruptors.

Trife smiled as a fleet from Deatharon finally appeared. "So they do intend to fight. Send the Guardships in to counter attack. Give them to order that they may use their electromagnetic rifles. Move the Keldeij in to the battle, we'll engage the enemy as well. I want the laser cannons to fire for defense. Sheilds are at maximum. I want the other hundred Frontlineships prepared to fire a wave of mines. Tell them they have a half hour to fuel and be ready to launch."

Laser fire was repelled by the ships' shields but some of the missles made it thru and damaged several of the Guardships. Three had to pull back due to reduce engine output and would only be sitting ducks if they engaged. That left ninety-seven ships to engage the Deatharon fleet.

Trife received a distressed signal. "Send ten Patrolships to protect Kahanistan and get them to safety."

Ten Patrolships left and made their way towards the damaged ship. "We are allies of the Zetans and have come to assist you."
---------------------------------------------
Atosuryua looked at the radar screen after her last shot. "Alright, we need to start reducing enemy numbers. Divide into groups of two and start taking out the Taledonian ships and frigates."

The Fleet took heavy loses as the missles hit. The fleet begian fireing every weapon they had. The 2nd and 3rd Crusader fleet had hoped to stay out of the battle and save their energy for other attacks but it seems the border is putting up more of a fight then thought.

They engaged their engians at full power and entered the Deatharons fleets fireing blast after blast as Jem'Hadar Attack craft to damaged to be fixed rammed Deatharon ships

Grand Admiral Rei ordered the use of Thalaron Radation Torpedos. They would kill crew in the areas of the enemy ships they hit as long as their shields are weak. So the commanders used them carefuly.

Loses mounted on both sides one side would break sooner or later. Or the best hope Deatharon holds her ground and lets a large chunk of her fleet be destroyed here and now.

OOC: Sry guys it took a while for me to get online. Can someone give summary?

"We are approaching the enemy. Advice sir?" asked the captain of the carrier of the two ship team of Captain Evere.

OOC: The battle has started. Its pretty much back and forth right now. If you could send your forces to fight Taledonia's ships it would be the best for now.

OOC: Don't get caught in the bombardment.

Adrimal Sarin was watching the Abh Guardships heading towards his fleet trying to repel the Righteous might of all mighty Emperor Akarth. The Adrimal orders the Imperial Battlecruisers to enage the Guardships while the Mothership and the Imperial Guardian launch long range Beta Class Missiles at the Abh Capital ships the goal break them out of there confidence. The Heavy Battle Carriers unleash Imperial Interceptors and Slph Fighters to help Engage the Guard ships.
________________________________________________________________

The Antarans launch there Dark Matter Projectors at the Neo Zetan ships. This makes the Anti-matter weapons look like nothing and it is for retailation for Tharlon Torpedo weapons. The Surrivors of the Dark Matter would wish they were killed when this stuff touches them or there ship.

"Standard procedure: Get as deep in the fleet as possible, shoot up the palce, and get the hell out"

Trife saw Deatharon launch fighters, "Send the Attack Vessels in to deal with fighters. That should take care of the flies. I want half of the remaining patrolships to move towards the enemy's flank and push them away from the battle and their allies."

A hundred Attack Vessels moved in to take on the fighters. Guardships kept their distance from the Battlecruisers to keep using their electromagnetic rifles. Fifty Patrolships moved towards the flank to start herding the Deatharon fleet.

Frontlineships had another fifteen minutes before they could launch another volley of mines.

It was time to take some more extensive actions to deal with the Realm. From the Battle Cruiser Alfeis came the massive blue beam from the angel cannon, targetted a a nearby Realm ship, a rather large ship.

In one of the many hangers of the Cruiser, a bording party of 500 shocktroopers was being assembled to go out and take over the now uncrewed ship and dismantle the AI system, giving the Republic control of the vessel.

The captain, his face screwed up in a position of fear, died. Already, two of the proud frigates had fallen, and the single cruiser had taken heavy damage to the third engine, not to mention the all-round lack of shielding.

The Taledonia warp behind the ships was unfortunate, but, luckily, the mobile FTLi system was ready for activation, after careful exclusion of allied engines.

[Node Activated]
[Energy Node Online]
[FTLi generator online]
[Application over 2/3 of current enemy fleet]
[Allied engines are unaffected]
[Warning: Using FTL engines will negate the FTLi field]

The AI, upon the death of the crew, was pertubed little. "Code 1176. Activate metal combat units"

Almost fifty rounded, spider-like metal things on each ship rolled out of cupboards, maintenance, and bays. In each ship, these droids were supreme, powered by the generator of the ship itself, and nigh-invincible while they were powered.

"Activate short-range anti-boarding guns. Fire on any enemy inbounds"

Each ship had another forty-two to seventy-eight guns slide out of hidden caches, and aim at any enemy transports, each small, yet powerful, another example of what the new, unified League would be able to accomplish.

The AI found it amusing that they would attempt to disable him, for, indeed, what other reason would the Taledonians attempt to board the ship?

The variables were correct, and he smiled, well, as much as a non-moving metallic entity could smile. The Taledonians would come aboard, he would play with them for a time, and then they would die.

He had more forces, now that the crew had been halved, and he had no doubt that he had surprises the Taledonians hadn't even heard of, yet...

Trife saw Deatharon launch fighters, "Send the Attack Vessels in to deal with fighters. That should take care of the flies. I want half of the remaining patrolships to move towards the enemy's flank and push them away from the battle and their allies."

Frontlineships had another fifteen minutes before they could launch another volley of mines.

Good. Another assault "We're going in" as the two ships HTed in close to the enemy fleet.

Adrimal Sarin watched on view screen. The Abh were attempting to flank him. The Adrimal nearly laughed at the thought that these fools thought that he would be beaten so easily. The Destroyers in the rear were told to attack the incomeing Attack Ships on the flank. The Mother Ship would give cover fire to the fighters. The Fighters would strike the Guard Ships the Imperial Battlecruiser headed back while switching from fireing missiles to Distengrators and phasers. The Point Singularity Cannons needed to be recharged from there constant use agaisnt encroaching Abh positions. The Thrid Fleet was to busy defending itself from the Abh Fleet that the Zatrick ships were totally ignored in there comeing hit and run raid.

"Begin the attack" as the carrier deployed fighter-bombers, which struck with the gunship and the carrier at the same target together.

The Neo Zetan fired their Thalaron radation torpeds agian and agian. Deatharons counter to it was just as horrible as them. The fleets inside the Deatharon fleet started to link up in areas where allies were surronding Deatharons fleets.

Grand Admiral Rei ordered The Jem'Hadar Strike Force to engage the largeist Capital Ships in Deatharons fleet while the other ships started to turn their attention to Cruisers.

An Imperial Guardian Ship was crippled in the surpise attack. The Problem was the other Guardian retailate using Point Defense phasers on the Fighters this would hold them off until the Point Singularty Cannons went back online.

________________________________________________________________

The Jem' Hadar Strike Force was bombarded with Dark Matter Projector Fire. The Mother Ships and Imperial Guardian litterly saved this weapon just for the Neo Zetan ships. The Antaran Command Cruisers also used it. The Cost of taking out a captial ship would be a high one. The Antarans even phase cloaked there Rapator class cruisers just to hit the Neo Zetans ships from behind with the Dark Matter Projector.

The shuttles left the bay of the cruiser, and under the protection of Taledonian DREDs, made their way towards the AI controlled ship. The DREDs, being drones, flew into the way of all fire coming at the shuttles, but a few shots got through and simply impacted on the shielding. Unfortunatly, a few missiles got through and had destroyed one transport, but that was of no consequence.

DREDs continually crashed into the airlocks of the vessel, attempting to create a hull breach to allow the shuttles to land.

As the Dark Matter took a toll on the Jem'Hadar their ships were preprogrammed if the crew was dead to ram the nearist enemy ship. This made them deadly even in death.

Neo Zeta's Capital Ships now were fireing on the Enemy Capital ships.

With loses going high and higher on both sides Grand Admiral Rei moved in the SSD Lust with ten destroyers. They would put some muscle into the fleet.

However it was one of only a few SSD's left. New ones would take time to build as most were scrapted after the Gaian war.

Our troops have docked in the Realm ship, Admiral.

Excellent, continue the bom...

Galerius was cut off as the Defiance rocked violently. Turning to the window, he saw the cause. A Taledonian frigate close to the cruiser erupted into a ball of flames as it exploded, leaving only debris in it's place after the flames disappeared.

Status on the fleets?

Bringing up schematics now, sir.

Okay, we seem to be good. Only loss was that frigate, but others are severely damaged and request permission to repair, sir.

Do it, and get them back here as soon as they are done.

Three more frigates and two carriers dissappeared from the battle, and arrived quite far away along with the support frigates; which went to work right away on repairing the vessels.

Admiral Trife sent a message to the Zatarak carrier:

Thanks for the aid. Our Attack Vessels will give your bombers protection while they start their attack runs. Stand by while a mine volley comes in.

Attack Vessels formed up on the wings as they escorted the bombers in.

The Admiral got the word that the mines were ready to launched and his lips curled back in an evil smile. "Send all mines at the head of the Patrolships to help them push the Deatharon forces back. I want all Guardships to launch their mines to cause chaos. All Patrolships are to hold their mines in stasis until we start driving them back. These fools have another thing coming if they thought we didn't realize that this manuever was obvious."

The Frontlineships sent out a barrage of mines, hundreds of mines streaked across space into Deatharon forces. All were targeted at the larger cruisers in front of the Patrolships. Guardships also launched their mines but unlike the Frontlineships, these ships could only launch twenty mines a piece. Space Time mines numbered at around a thousand heading for the enemy fleet.

5 Guardships had been destroyed and a total of 8 were out of action and listing back for repairs.

OOC: Nova blast.... planet..... Big explosion.... big death anyone remember....

Liln continued to watch the battle progress, intent on knowing every detail. It was not loss of life that concerned him. After all, all those dieing didn’t even resemble Ihrens in the slightest. To him, it was like watching cattle being slaughtered. Sure they were dieing, but who really cared?

He was more interested in the material aspect of the battle. Ships ramming each other and spilling fuel, cargo and munitions into space, chunks of ships floating practically unnoticed, mines and torpedoes , some of which had to be salvageable duds and, of course, ships damaged beyond repair, all of which couldn’t be recovered by the fleets.

These were all things most saw as casualties, obstacles or both. Things likely to be abandoned by a force on the move. The crime boss, though, all he saw was profit. The only variable, the only risk, hinged on who won this crucial battle.

They weren’t exactly early, but they were there. OFCF-1 and OFCF-3 had arrived. Each of the offensive combat fleets bore 61 ships. The two fleets appeared on opposite sides of the battle and each was broken into its four sub fleets*. The Kazeci ships seemed few as they moved towards the battle, their small groups dwarfed by the massive mess of ships in between. This was only a visual inadequacy, however, as each of the ships was a formidable fighting force all its own. Surely they could tip the scale in the Republic's favor.

Allied fleets:
The KishNa and KishGarn are here to assist, with us are both OFCF-1 and 3. Take heart, we shall enter on your side shortly.

Each of the eight fleets had a purpose that they were designed for, and they moved accordingly. Carrier fleets moved into the middle of Republic forces and began a defensive role while the assault sub fleets charged to the flanks of the front line.

Around each of the Kazeci ships spun a field of random particles moving at high speed. A faint red glow existed around the slate gray hulls. As weapons opened fire at will, many blue streaks that were Zat shots filled the space between Kazeci forces and their foes, mainly the Zetans. Red beams lashed out at the closest ones, delivering their deadly photon torpedoes to their targets, hopefully without the interference of energy shielding**.

The Deatharon A.I. Defense Grid merely targeted the mines and the rapid fire point defense phasers intercepted many of the incomeing mines. The Deatharon fleet retailated with the largest missiles they had Omega Class War heads. They were released and sent via Wormhole to the Abh Fleet they would explode right in the middle unleashing a massive blast of Nauderia and Naquta. The Mother Ship fired the Dark Matter Projector at the Abh Guard Ships. The Third Fleet lost One Imperial Guardian and ten Imperial Battlecruisers. Three Destroyers were out of action.

The Larger Crusader ships begian to fire their Diminsonal Cannons. Their most powerful weapons. They would cuase major damage to Deatharon Forces.

The Fleet begian to fire their missles at Republic Supply and repair ships. Grand Admiral Rei became impationt with the progress. It was going slower thens he had thought.

The Zetans had forgotten that the Deatharon also had weapons like the Dimensional cannon. The Psy Cannon was authorized for the battle. The massive Psy Energy was fired at the Neo Zetan ships causing waves of massive destruction that went into there path. The Supreme Adrimal Hvei was impressed that the Republic and the Empire had held the Neo Zetan invasion this long. The Supreme Adrimal knew that the Empire's military was going to be in shambles for a few decades but that paled in comparssion to complete annhialation.

Admiral, the Kazeci have arrived with two of their fleets and are hailing.

Send a transmission back.

It's about time you guys showed up, we were starting to think you weren't coming. Glad to have you, Kazeci.

The Nirsian fleet had taken casualties, loosing 58 starships, but they still had many more. They continued to do their runs, firing their torpedoes and skimming the surface of Zetan ships while firing the blasters into the bridges and hulls.

Grand Admiral Rei got a the report. " So if our negeations dont go threw then we will be forced to fall back?"

The First Officer nods " Yes our secret partners are yet unsure if they will join even if it will tip the balance. If we fall back The Republic wont be able to break our defensive line for atleast a few years. Our spys report Doth may be a target of importence to them."

Grand Admiral Rei nods " Ready the trilithium warheads. If we are forced to fall back this star goses to if they follow. Let us hope our allies show up however"

The Supreme Adrimal Hvei sent a message to the Neo Zetan Adrimal:

We both can not keep this up. I suggest we halt this stupidity and solve this like civilized beings otherwise this will only lead to the death of both of us which I am willing to do if you force me to.

The Deatharon Fleets keeped up there counter attack.

OOC: Last post for tonight.

We're glad to aid you, Taledon command, though I can't say we're glad to be in this fray. See you on the other side, Kazeci fleet command out.

The Kazeci Zat weapons were merely to sap the shields of their foes, being minimally effective against solid matter. It was time the Kazeci made them selves heard and gave the enemy a good licing thought FA Lockhart as he ordered their next move.

Ships realigned for optimal firing positions. Slowly, holes opened in small parts of the shielding, they were necessary for the Lethal Ion Cannons, or LICs. All four massive turrets on each of the SCs recoiled at once, bright beams of yellowish light (charged ions) split the void, heading for the weakest defended spots available to target on near by NZ ships. The bursts would last for about 30 seconds and occur about once every two minutes. Mounted on tracking turrets, they could follow the movement of a ship mid-shot or slice across an important area. The most powerful weapons in all of Kazecistan had been unleashed.

Ooc: All abbreviations are explained and defined in the links I have provided.

OOC: It may be best to end this war more for RL issues. Seems i may be off and on not sure. seems may mom isnt happy about a C in a AP trig.

IC: Admiral Rei sighed " Seems our allies were too few in number and our back negoations fell threw. This war cant be won at this rate nore lost. Only turn into a long drawn out trench war... No glory of victory nore poetic death fighting to the end. Only death and more death"

We agree to a cease fire to begian talks our forces are equal in power. This war will bring no gain for either force. All forces stand down i repeat stand down

A flash of purple light, encased with a golden shadow, brought forth the first Asgard Warships into the conflict. (http://www.gateworld.net/omnipedia/ships/graphics/asgardmothership.jpg)

A single Beliskner (http://www.stargate-tech.net/pagepics/belinsksmall.jpg) with no escort. The rune-covered side revealed the name "Surt": obviously the name of the craft. It began to move towards the Zetian battle positions.

Suddenly, onboard the Zetian Flagship, a small, grey alien (http://www.gateworld.net/omnipedia/characters/graphics/thor.jpg) seated in a highly-detailed throne appeared.

"I am Balder of the Asgard. I humbely request you lower your weapons and flee from this place at once. You are in direct violation of the Xc'tn Treaty, section 45, paragraph 12. Although written over 43,000 years ago, this dominion still technically falls under Asgard protection. Please leave at once, or we will be forced to fire."

OOC: Just FYI: He's a hollogram.

The message from the Zetans was recieved by the Taledonian fleet aswell, and they in the biggining had wanted a peacefull solution, and would create one, but for the Republican loss, the treaty would definitly benifit the Republic.

Zetan fleet,

Taledonian ships will cease their assualt once your allies call off theirs, until then we will continue to fight. We are interested in peace, and wish to negoatiate, however be informed that it will be us who will make the terms; and us who decides what happens, whether we go back to this bloody war, or we resolve this and go for peace.

Admiral Galerius

The terms you demand will be limited indeed. For you violation of many interglacitc laws and treatys by assianation. Be warned we will give up no terrtory other then that used for the Nutrule Zone and Our fleets will not be limited in any way. The Neo zetan forces begian to withdraw to their home land. Their allies would have to make peace or fight alone. The cuase was doomed to turn int a no gain war. Neo Zeta wanted no part of it.

The reply came cold and hard, just before the Zetans exited the system.

We will make whatever terms and demands we wish, but it will be up to you to accept them, and based on your response, we will decide the future. We also disregard your claim, as there is no intergalactic laws, and none that we will follow. We follow Taledonian law, and above that, Republican law, that is all. Be advised, we will contact you with details about the meeting. Until then, we are still considering you and your allies enemies of the Republic, and will attack any of your vessels that are not authorised into Republic territory.

The message from the Zetans was recieved by the Taledonian fleet aswell, and they in the biggining had wanted a peacefull solution, and would create one, but for the Republican loss, the treaty would definitly benifit the Republic.

A flash of blue and white light accompanied the hollographic appearance of Balder, sitting in his chair, upon the deck of the Taledonian flagship.

"Greetings, Admiral Galerius. I am Balder, Commander of the Second Asgard Fleet. I have been informed by my superiors that the Asgard would be willing to attend these peace hearings as a third-party arbiter. Although a supporter of yours during this conflict, the Asgard will take a neutral stand when aiding with the treaty. All the Asgard seek from this situation is a treaty to protect plantets from such confict again. Additionally, if there are any more targets or hostile forces in this area, the Surt will hunt them down for you. Your fleet can rest. Any supplies you or the Republic Fleet needs can be transmitted to the Surt. We will deliver them for you within minutes."

A large explosion rocked the Realm vessel as the hanger doors were blown off.




OOC: Thanks awfully for posting my losses, Taledonia, old boy. If possible, could you not do it again? Also, considering the fact I have no fighters, likewise I have no hanger. The only way in is through the airlocks, or the armour. Could you repost that?

The Zetans sent their last response Remember we have enough WMD's to destroy Deatharon. We do not fear death. If we do not accept your terms you will know by the Death of Deatharon. You have only met a small force of our fleets. We can drag this war on for so long no ammount of money nore terrtory will rebuild what you have lost.

The Zetans cared litte of the Republics threats. Soon they would be where they could not touch them. They would be protected by The Eternals.

The Neo zetan forces begian to withdraw to their home land. Their allies would have to make peace or fight alone. The cuase was doomed to turn int a no gain war. Neo Zeta wanted no part of it.

OOC: And, to quote myself... Thanks awfully for pulling out and leaving us die after we supported you, old boy. Perhaps my angered captains will agree to ally with the Republic to take vengeance for your betrayal. You initiated this war, you should've been the last to leave, letting us all escape, first.

OOC: Know this: if you change sides and need aid, the Asgard will assist you.

Galerius turned around a bit startled at seeing the man on his ship. He passsed his hand throught the figure, noting with relief that it was a mere hologram. Keeping his orderly stance, the Admiral replied.

I'm sure the Imperial Senate of the Republic would accept that, and would welcome you to the talks when they begin. However I am but a military man, and have no say in what the Senate does. We would, however, like it if you could deal with the Zetan allies that are still in the area. They continue their attack, tho they may back down and retreat from the area later.

He turned and looked at the Asgard vessel. It was roughly the same size as a destroyer, and probably just as powerful. It had a neat design to it, something Galerius had not seen before, and the runes on the side made him wonder. Turning back to the hologram, he eyed the creature carefully.

As a representative of the Galactic Empire of Taledonia, which is a Senator nation of the Republic, I offer you our humble thanks for your support in this conflict.

(OOC: Sure, I can change it, and sorry for posting your losses. I just thought it would speed things along cause I really REALLY want to use my ground troops. I didn't post any of your machine gaurd losses tho, just the hull breach to get my guys in there. Sorry again, I can change it so they haven't breeched yet if you would like?)

OOC: Well to late now my mom is not going to allow me on the internet explorer untell i get a A avrg.... well this is the end of me on NS for the next month or so just assume my nations gave in totaly ect.

The Commercial Enterprise, or ComEnt fleet arrived in the outskirts of they system where there were reports of combat. There were a large number of smallish to mid-sized ships, all flanking a massive sphere that was somewhat flattened out.

As the sensors observed the wrecks and general debris, the 'admiral' pressed a button and a squadron of small ships arrived.

The 'admiral' sent a message to the Taledonian fleets, informing them who they were and asking for a situation report.

OOC: w00t! The Republic is victorious after little work! I'm going to talk with the Senate, but we will probably only take 50% of your territory.

The Zetans have surrendered, and now we just have to deal with their various allies.

"The pleasure is mine, Admiral." Balder said, bowing his head and flickering out in a flash of white and blue light.

Suddenly, three more vessels exited from hyperspace. All of them were larger than the Surt (http://www.stargate-tech.net/pagepics/oneilleng.jpg) - almost three times the size. The four ships moved with a speed that turly beguiled their bulk. Almost as if they were powerful swimmers in the ocean, the four vessels bore effortlessly forewards. In but a few quick seconds, most of the distance between the Republic Fleet and the Zetian Allies had been crossed.

As they closed to firing distance, volley after volley of preliminary fire pelted the four ships. Almost as if they were protected by giant eggs, the outsides of the four ships glowed bright orange and deflected most of the attacks. Those few that hit the armor left insigificant dents in their hulls, which soon (in a very peculiar way...) seemed to be reparied by a shifting, silvery mass.

The Asgard ships opened fire as soon as they were able: great blue balls of energy (a series of NPAWs, Antimater-projectile cannons, and mass-transfer beam weapons) flew at rediculous speeds toward the ship hulls of the Zetian Allied Forces. Nearing the bulk of the fleets, the Asgard's Transportation Beams (http://www.stargate-tech.net/pagepics/belgo.jpg) errupted in brilliant blue fan-shaped rays. As one of these "fans" fell across a floating hull of a destroyed ship, the ship disapeared wherever the beam touched it. It was as though it were being "scanned" out of existance: transported to god only knows where in an unknown number of pieces.

The effects of these weapons, firing faster and faster upon the fleet, were about to be seen...

OOC: I know, it sounds very powerful: but I only have 20 to 25 ships for my entire nation. They're high-quality, low-quantity ships.

The fleet moved in, weapons extending and powering up, while on the massive orb, sections opened up in preparation of something.

(OOC: Sure, I can change it, and sorry for posting your losses. I just thought it would speed things along cause I really REALLY want to use my ground troops. I didn't post any of your machine gaurd losses tho, just the hull breach to get my guys in there. Sorry again, I can change it so they haven't breeched yet if you would like?)

OOC: 'K, thanks Tale.

"Damn them! Damn them to all hells! Damn them!!!!!!!!"

The admiral was understandably annoyed.

"Leave the damned system. We'll return to Zegenthis. I'll negotiate with the Taledonians"

In light of the newly-formed Star League, and the desposement of Exarch Emperor Thyreaoth, I have been... instructed... to make peace with your people, here and now. The reformed Council have informed me, that, to prevent war, we will pay up to $5 Taledonian, as well as replacing any.. goods and services... .damaged in our attack. What.. do... you say?!

The final words were spat out, the ultimate humilitation of a man whom had been forced to negotiate, against his will, when he would have far rather died, instead of talking...

OOC: I know, it sounds very powerful: but I only have 20 to 25 ships for my entire nation. They're high-quality, low-quantity ships.

OOC: Normally I would cry wank, but, as you RP them so well, you won't go doing "OMGZIPWNEDj00LAWL" things with them, so I have no complaints.

OOC: A lot has happened while I slept.

IC: The main fleet HTed to join with the fleet bombarding the Taledonian ships.
"What do you mean Neo Zeta has abandoned us to the Republic? Those damn Black-Horde serving, Black Drinker Corrupted Elves" said the Admiral, hardly pleased that their mission had been for nothing.

"Damn them! Damn them to all hells! Damn them!!!!!!!!"

The admiral was understandably annoyed.

"Leave the damned system. We'll return to Zegenthis. I'll negotiate with the Taledonians"

In light of the newly-formed Star League, and the desposement of Exarch Emperor Thyreaoth, I have been... instructed... to make peace with your people, here and now. The reformed Council have informed me, that, to prevent war, we will pay up to $5 Taledonian, as well as replacing any.. goods and services... .damaged in our attack. What.. do... you say?!

The final words were spat out, the ultimate humilitation of a man whom had been forced to negotiate, against his will, when he would have far rather died, instead of talking...

A flashing blue and white light greeted the now-familar arival of the hollographic Balder, joined by three other Asgard, aboard the Hyperspatial Travel's vessel.

"Greetings, Admiral, I am Balder. Commander of the Asgard Fleet and Captain of the Surt. These other Asgard are Vidar, Captain of the Balmung, Nanna, Captain of the Buri, and Heimdall, Captain of the Gjallar. The Asgard have heard your plee, but do not wish for money or services from the Hyperspatial Travel. The Asgard, instead wish to aid your nation. All non-military damage to food or industrial facilities damaged in the conflict will be recompensated by the Asgard. Any of those harmed in the ensuing conflict will be treated at our medical facilities, given your approval, of course. The Asgard will also assist in any non-military infastructure lost during this war. We ask nothing in return from the Hyperspatial Travel, save for one demand: any and all treaties or sollutions presented by the Republic will be accepted by the Hyperspatial Travel members. Know this: the Asgard shall act as arbiters during the trial and shall not allow any unfair or unjust discision to be passed by either side."

With these words, Balder extended his hand and bowed his head, "We simply wish to extend a hand in friendship. We hope to bring peace to this universe: if only in small doses."

OOC: Neo Zeta has not surrendered at all! A friend was supposed to post that he was putting this war on pause because of his grades but the moron put that he surrendered instead. He has given me complete control of his forces and command of this war until he returns so the war is still on everyone. And I continue to keep fighting it.

OOC: The war already happened? Wow, school can take me away from a lot......as I really did nothing, consider me a nonparticipant IC. Seriously.

300 Nietzschean ships tore themselves from the Slipstream; each gleaming, sharp prows and readied weapons. The lead ship; a Glorious Heritage Class Cruiser, turned towards the fray. Fleet Marshall William Ataturk sat in his command chair, a finger idly tapping his lip. Here he was, a Fleet Commander, yet a subordinate to a Jaguar and the Kodiak. It was an irritating feeling, a stifling blow to be thought of as...Inferior.

"I am Fleet Marshall William Ataturk of the Drago-Kasov pride; we have brought our First Strategic Fleet to the aid of the Republic. Report, at once!"
He snarled over comms; turning to the immense viewscreen, clenching his fist as a holographic figure appeared next to him. The AI, smirking, clad in black uniform, turned to regard him coldly.

"An excellent declaration of war, Sir. I am certain that the Archduke shall....reward your perseverance."

"You test my patience." He almost hissed "What is it you want."

"Strategic weapons systems are online; prepping for assault at slightest provocation."

"Good; now leave me."

(OOC: HT, do you still want to negoatiate a peace? Or continue fighting now that the Zetans are "back" and still fighting this war? And Abh, even tho he gave you control of his forces, he still left the system, so therefore we have won this battle. There will be others however.)

(OOC: All I can tell you is what his email said. He said that he didn't retreat completely and I also still have my fleet in the area. I suppose it all depends if you want to keep fighting or try to settle this with peaceful negotiations.

And blast HT! Can't you try and put this stupid difference behind us at the moment since we are fighting together? If your nation wants to go to war with me then they are welcom to AFTER this.)

(OOC: I know the Zetan allies are still in the area, but the Zetans are not. If the other Zetan allies still want to negoatiate a peace, then they can exit this war and go about their other business. But as long as the Zetans are still fighting, we will still fight until we negoatiate a deal.)

I might be a non-fighting IC guy...

The Neo Zetan ships that had temporarly withdrawn had now returned to the battle lines.

All Neo Zeta ships along with Abh ceased fire.

This Admiral Trife of the Abh Empire. I have taken control of this operation. Now this leaves us open to two possibilities. One, we can keep fighting until we are all annhilated and resume the war at a later time to find a winner. Or two, we can go into negotiations. Be warned though, I will not be bullied around and will not give in to threats. The choice is now before the Republic as to what they wish to do.

Supreme Adrimal Hvei sent a reply: The Empire would like to discuss your offer with the other nations in the Republic, We would like some time to talk the matter over amongst each other

The Deatharon forces halt attacks but they our armed and ready to fire on any ship that attacks them.

OOC: Alright, then, my attack that occured, like, TWO PAGES BACK that everyone seemed to ignore is still occuring.

Please post your reactions.

Oh, but my offers of peace still stand to all of those who want to either join the Republic's side or run away.

OOC: For the record, i didn't read anything, I'm RPing as if i'm flying blind

IC:
"Sir, our jump engines experienced a flux. It took us longer then the rest of the task force."

The Red Fleet exited jump space, to the sight of a giant battle.

"This is Star Marshall Concorde. Send the MASSs."

Five ships, almost spherical is shape, broke formation, and began moving towards the Taledonian ships. They attempted to charge through their formations, and detonate their extremely power Warp Charges. (These things create a wormhole which sucks in all nearby ships, then it collapses immediately, crushing all of them. I will RP fairly, however, and if a lot of fire comes down on them, they won't detonate)

"Rest of the fleet, prop up the Neo-Zetan formation on the Taledonian sector.

With the appearent ceasetion of combat, the ComEnt fleet floated in space waiting for either information or hostilities.

Diddo on the attack that was ignored. :rolleyes:

Admiral Trife crossed his arms as he read the reply from Deatharon:

We acknowledge your request. You have five hours to talk it over with your allies. After that time, one ship from each opposing force shall send their repressentatives to an appointed location.

Trife also noticed Yugoamerica ships were still attacking. "Send a message to their commander ordering them to hold their attack. They are to pull back and if it they wish, take part in these 'peace' talks."

OOC: You attacked...? Hmmm didn't even notice.

Concorde was devasted from the news.

"Damn these jump engines...very, well, send a hail to the Abh fleet, and recall the MASSs."

"This is Star Marshall Concorde. We will take part in these talks."

OOC: Taledonia...I bombarded you, in case your forgot.

IC: "We're all really confident in your leadership" said the Admiral to Trife "Now men, let's take out the Taledonians and leave."

"Very good. Have your fleet regroup and take time to gather any life pods that may contain your people. Everyone is to take this oppurtunity to take care of the wounded and anything necessary."

OOC: AGAIN!!! PLEASE REACT TO MY ATTACK!!!

Look, the only way War threads are able to survive if people do the following:

1) Pay attention to attacks, communications, realistic casualties/situations, etc.
2) Respect the other nations OOC, even if their nation is your "bitter enemy" (After all, it's only a game.)
3) Try to have fun, not simply win.

Now, just because everyone's seemed to have forgotten my attack, I'll quote myself:

"The pleasure is mine, Admiral." Balder said, bowing his head and flickering out in a flash of white and blue light.

Suddenly, three more vessels exited from hyperspace. All of them were larger than the Surt (http://www.stargate-tech.net/pagepics/oneilleng.jpg) - almost three times the size. The four ships moved with a speed that turly beguiled their bulk. Almost as if they were powerful swimmers in the ocean, the four vessels bore effortlessly forewards. In but a few quick seconds, most of the distance between the Republic Fleet and the Zetian Allies had been crossed.

As they closed to firing distance, volley after volley of preliminary fire pelted the four ships. Almost as if they were protected by giant eggs, the outsides of the four ships glowed bright orange and deflected most of the attacks. Those few that hit the armor left insigificant dents in their hulls, which soon (in a very peculiar way...) seemed to be reparied by a shifting, silvery mass.

The Asgard ships opened fire as soon as they were able: great blue balls of energy (a series of NPAWs, Antimater-projectile cannons, and mass-transfer beam weapons) flew at rediculous speeds toward the ship hulls of the Zetian Allied Forces. Nearing the bulk of the fleets, the Asgard's Transportation Beams (http://www.stargate-tech.net/pagepics/belgo.jpg) errupted in brilliant blue fan-shaped rays. As one of these "fans" fell across a floating hull of a destroyed ship, the ship disapeared wherever the beam touched it. It was as though it were being "scanned" out of existance: transported to god only knows where in an unknown number of pieces.

The effects of these weapons, firing faster and faster upon the fleet, were about to be seen...

OOC: I know, it sounds very powerful: but I only have 20 to 25 ships for my entire nation. They're high-quality, low-quantity ships.

Now, PLEASE REACT, DAMN IT!!! (I say that in the nicest, most respectful way imaginable).

Hiln stared out at the battle. Things were not going according to plan. Crime bosses tend to get angry when things don’t go according to plan.
“The Zetans have RETREATED?!?”

“Yes, sir,” answered a flight officer. “They appear to have momentarily redrawn. Also, it seems peace talks have commenced between various Republic and Zetan Allied Forces.”

“Well, there won’t be anything for those humanoid dogs when they get back. Send the damn pirates out. NOW!”

Seconds later, the privateers shot off at the remains of the Zetan fleet. Some ships probed and salvaged unexploded ordinance; others siphoned various liquids from wrecked ships; more tore scraps from hulls, and still others simply salvaged derelict cargo. When their holds were full, they unloaded their salvage onto the “Frog” and headed out for more.

The ComEnt secondary fleet began 'salvaging' ships, even going so far as to 'salvage' the ships while there were still people inside them.

OOC: Oh no you don't.

With another rival for the salvage, the Salvage teams quickly deployed...with weapons attatched.

OOC: We take salvaging very seriously.

(OOC: I know you attacked, Zatarack, and I posted that my closest frigates turned and started engaging you while the rest still continued to attack the Realm vessels.)

The larger section of the combat ships moved to stand guard over the salvage ships. Meanwhile the spherical ship and the lesser section stood watch like the sword of Damocles.

ooc: So do we.

(OOC: I know you attacked, Zatarack, and I posted that my closest frigates turned and started engaging you while the rest still continued to attack the Realm vessels.)

OOC: Well I still haven't seen your losses from the bombardment (And it's not a small bombardment)

The ComEnt secondary fleet began 'salvaging' ships, even going so far as to 'salvage' the ships while there were still people inside them.

With a flash of blue and white light, the hollogram of Balder appeared on the ComEnd's Command ship's bridge.

"Greetings Admiral, I am Balder, Commander of the Asgard Fleet and Captain of the Surt. We must ask you to please desist from "salvaging" occupied ships. We have detected numerous pressure-breaches throughout the hulls of several of these ships. We ask you to comply, as a fellow friend of the Republic."

The larger section of the combat ships moved to stand guard over the salvage ships. Meanwhile the spherical ship and the lesser section stood watch like the sword of Damocles.

ooc: So do we.

OOC: So we both want all the salvage, eh? This won't be pretty.

IC: With the recent development, fighter-bombers appeared to escort the salvage ships...and harass the combat ships.

snip

The ComEnt 'admiral' looked at the hologram, and replied with an "Enh.'

snip
As the combat ships returned fire, five wings of 'fighters' launched from the spherical ship to help deal with the fighters, while the PDs of the ships dealt with the harrassing fighter/bombers.

ooc: What side are you on Zat?
A wing is 1000 fighters.

The rest of the fleet approached the primary salvage grounds, while the sphere began spitting out fighter wings.

Taken abback by the uncaring reply, Balder's hollogram quickly disapeared.

What happened next could only be described as beautiful and shocking. The Surt (AFTER ATACKING, WHICH STILL NO ONE HAS REACTED TO!!!) moved near the attacking slavagers. Erruping from the bottom of the ship came a barrage of Asgard Transporter Beam "fans." Only the target was not the combating ships, but the disabled ships below.

As the fans crossed over the wreckage, it appeared as though nothing had changed. Still, as Zatarack and ComEnt forces would soon be aware, every last person, piece of hardware, weapons, food, clothing, and even personal affects, were disappearing.

In a wide-range transmission to the two bickering sides, Balder's voice boomed over the intercom.

"Greetings, this is Balder. As you are aware, I am in the process of "extracting" the survivors and contents of these shipwrecks. My main goal is to isolate and help people from this carnage. All affects are being transported to an outpost near the edge of this galaxy. Please remember: all people will be treated well, all personal and military affects will be returned to their proper owners, and all cargo, human and non-human, will be returned after these hostilities. Please, Zatarack cease your fighting. ComEnt, as angry as I am with your belligerent reaction, I will still aid you to defeat the enemies of the Republic."

The Surt continued to fire transporter "fans" over the bulkwards, desperately trying to help those inside.

OOC: You have a base at the edge of my Galaxy? How did you pull that off without being detected by the Antarans. My Elder race that helps defend this Galaxy?

The Surt continued to fire transporter "fans" over the bulkwards, desperately trying to help those inside.

"Hey! We could break those people down" as a heavy carrier HTed in and a flight of fighter-bombers attacked the Surt.

The sphere had launched a fifth of it's fighter complement, a total of a hundred thousand fighters, when the Zatarack ship had fired. The rounds 'hit' and passed thought the sphere.

Meanwhile the fighters wheeled on the attacking ships and while they were tiny, when working in unison, they were deadly.

ooc: The shield uses the Heisenberg uncertainty principle to work, it is defeatable, just might take a while.

"Hey! We could break those people down" as a heavy carrier HTed in and a flight of fighter-bombers attacked the Surt.

Several of the fans, effortlessly flowing up and down the bulkwards, now speed upwards towards the fighter-bombers approaching. As the fan left the bulkward, the change in its function could already be seen: the very edge of a large capital ship was "Scanned" away. The beams were now acting as weapons: transporting ships into millions of different pieces and spreading them around the system.

(OOC: Just to give you a heads-up, unless your fighter-bombers are made of some crazy-resistant-to-everything material, they're going to be transported into tiny little pieces VERY fast.)

As the Heavy Zatarackian Carrier fired upon the Surt, the orange Shell once again rose up. Burst after burst cascaded in beautiful patterns over the Asgard shield. Still, such a relentless fire was able to find holes in the outdatted shielding systems of such an old model. With a small explosion, a piece of the Surt's back-edge shattered. As it swung out into space, a long, silvery line appeared from the inside of the ship. It swung around the piece, pulling it back towards the main hull of the ship. Within minutes, the damage had been repaired: the ship was back to normal.

Then, the Surt fired its main cannons: blue bursts of fast-moving energy in the form of NPAWs, Antimater-projectile cannons, and mass-transfer beam weapons. They closed in fast to the carrier...

"Full power to rail guns and plasma cannons!" came the orders.

Meanwhile, fighting the Asgard ship...
"Oh. just get those Judgements here" as two Judgment nuclear gunships tore a temporary hole in space and time behind the Surt and emerged.

"Full power to rail guns and plasma cannons!" came the orders.

Meanwhile, fighting the Asgard ship...
"Oh. just get those Judgements here" as two Judgment nuclear gunships tore a temporary hole in space and time behind the Surt and emerged.

OOC: Okay, okay...time out, time-out...

Let me tell you what's wrong here:

1) You don't give any losses. I have blasts of FRICKEN HUGE ENERGY coming towards you, and you may have a possible extermination of your fighter support. Yet, for some reason, casualties remain a mystery. You need to post casualties and adapt to that.

2) The "meh." attitude. I don't usually care about something like this, because it's all too common, but please react a bit to the fact that a very powerful ship is gunning you down. Most people (even emotionless people) are going to say "Oh, well." to a possible loss of firepower.

3) What are "Judgment nuclear gunships?" If they're gunships, then they have a crew and weapons. So, are they just nuclear powered or are they torpedoes? How far behind me are they? Are they right up next to me (which would not be possible, due to the shields), or are they behind me behind my shields? Details, please.

The fighters continued to launch in wings and attack the Zatarack fighters and warships.
The warships fired upon the Zat warships with lasers and rail-cannons. The three largest warships also fired a missile barrage with the massed fire.

ooc: It's just the ships that have the HUP shields, the fighters can be destroyed by a well aimed large-caliber modern pistol.

The front badly wounded, the ship headed full speed to ram the orb.

OOC: Oh, yes, well of course I have losses, I just tend to not RP them. But they are there. Consider the carrier scrap.
And ruin the distraction?
Oh they're nuclear powered gunships. They also use the radiation and heat of the fissiona nd fusion reactor's in their main weapon.

One of the smaller of the warships sped forward to intercept the Zat ship that was on a collision course at the FCS(sphere). As it neared the Zat ship, it dropped it's HUP shield and accelerated to preform a ram of it's own.

2) Where are the gunships?

OOC: Again, you didn't answer all of my questions:

2) Where are the gunships?

From small cylinders on the destroyer came a random, rapid spay of energy projectiles, neatly vaporizing all of the ship they came in contact with.

Marshal Torusumi moved into the area, apparently, thanks to soem technical glitches and some issues with supply, Command delayed their movements by at least a few days. Word had come down that the Neo Zetans had been defeated....and her two fleets, now up to spec, moved close to the area.

Marshal Torusumi noticed the scene. She hailed the remaining Neo Zetan Allies in the area and said,

"Attention All Allies! This is Marshal Rose Torusumi of the New Dornalian Red Army. What happened here?"

ooc: Destroyer is the ramming/rammed ship?

ooc: Destroyer is the ramming/rammed ship?

OOC: yes. Oh and...

IC: What little remained of the carrier was scavenged by the salvage ships, which by now had gotten a good deal of salvage, both uncliamed and stolen. "So long!" as they quickly HTed out of the area.

OOC: Well, the ones you did your teleport thing on have been destroyed. And the gunships are behind the Surt. You know, where most ships have their engines.

OOC: *Sigh* I meant behind the shields or in between them...but, nevermind. My shields litterally wrap the ship in a piece of subspace. "Jumping in" you can do not! (Yoda voice)

IC:

The Surt picked up the dimmesional surge 500 Km behind its Stern. Immediately after the rift, Nuclear energy and radiation was detected in massive doses. Two ships, with fairly high-energy yields, were approaching the Surt from behind.

"I believe the term is...'meh.'" Balder whispered to himself, as the main cannons fired...BACKWARDS, followed closely by the Transporter beam (which disolved the fighters but moments before).

OOC: One should not try to suprise ships with turretted weapons. No-no-no...not a good idea.

OOC: One should not break up ships with fusion reactors

IC: The fusion reactors were no longer controlled. They were quickly reaching the level of heat from a protostar.

The front half of the ramming ship was destroyed, but the engines, as well as the power core continued to speed forward.

The destroyer then fired the next line of defense: Laser cutters.*

The power core detonated as it was scant meters away from impact with the Destroyer.

The Nietzschean tactical offensive began; firing their weapons at the enemies of the Republic. Torpeoes roared through the void as lazer weapons fired; fighters dipping and diving; dodging between debris as they began the assault. Ataturk smirked softly; weapons roaring to bloody life as his flagship plunged through the dark of space, turrets engaging against multiple hostiles as slipfighters peeled off, attacking along with then Garuda's and the Leviathan Roused cruisers.

He closed his eyes softly; listening to that bitter requiem of war and bloodshed; music to the Drago-Kasov's enhanced ears.

The power core detonated as it was scant meters away from impact with the Destroyer.

But it still did not stop as it was now very close to the orb.

snip
who are you attacking?

snip
The orb had been moving perpendicular to the ramming ship and was thus only clipped, smashing a few comm relays, as well as crumpling/jamming one of the depleted fighter bays.

OOC: One should not break up ships with fusion reactors

IC: The fusion reactors were no longer controlled. They were quickly reaching the level of heat from a protostar.

OOC: Actually, fusion reactors immediately "burn out" when they leak. After all: they're unstable, super-heated hydrogen molecules. The cosmic medium and extreme cold of space is enough to stop any fusion materials from becoming a hazzard. There's not even radiation, as the nuclear reaction quits cold. That's one of the reason "fusion power" seems to be the safetest, most reliable power we can achieve. Only permenant nuclear furnaces, like the Sun, can burn forever.

OOC: Well, the fact that the Space-tear device was still hot when that happened has caused some very bad things to happen. Mainly involving bending the laws of space in a localized area.

OOC: Anyone really :P

who are you attacking?


The orb had been moving perpendicular to the ramming ship and was thus only clipped, smashing a few comm relays, as well as crumpling/jamming one of the depleted fighter bays.

OOC: You have forgotten the spray cannons...

Immediately as the destroyer impacted the orb, the "pepperboxes" fired in every direction away from the destroyer.

OOC: Well, the fact that the Space-tear device was still hot when that happened has caused some very bad things to happen. Mainly involving bending the laws of space in a localized area.

OOC: But, still, you're not going to make a protostar from a couple of dead fusion reactiors and "bending the laws of space in the localized area." If you have a weapon that, when hot and destroyed, causes massive shifts in space-time to the point of physics deteriorating: then you've designed one lemon of a ship.

But, fine, I'll play into it:

What laws are they bending, and how? If its transforming into a "protostar" then how, why, and where's the mass coming from?

The full complement of the fighters, minus combat losses, continued to attack and engage any attackers.

The sphere had lossed a number of compartments, but because of it's size, could ignore damage that would cripple a smaller ship. Meanwhile the warships concentrated and opened a massed volley on the now retreating(perspectively) Zat warship.

But that was not all, as every active weapon fired on the orb as well.

Hiln watched in disbelief as other salvagers began ripping the hull, off of ships that were still manned.
“Don’t those human barbarians know anything about PR?,” he gawked.

A few minutes latter, Captain Veip approached him. “Boss, cargo capacity is full. We can’t carry anymore and the Zetan remains have been stripped of all useable components, along with some Deatharon salvage in the area.”

“Was there any crew?”

“No… Everyone was dead. We did recover a great deal of armor, personal weapons and cybernetic implants from the bodies, though.”

“Good. I hear dealing with POWs can be a hassle.” He paused briefly and shut his eyes before speaking again. “Do the privateers have their cut?”

“Yes, many couldn’t carry all the plunder they were due, so we had to pay them in cash for the excess,” the Captain responded.”

“It means nothing. We’ll be able to make more than they ever could off it. Tell them to get out of here. Things are getting a little to heated.”

“But what about the Zet-”

Hiln cut him off, “Those bastards abandoned the battle. I don’t see why we should stick our neck out and remain here as a waypoint for pirates.”

“Ok, boss. I’ll give the orders.”

Moments later, the privateers headed their separate directions. Some returned home, others went as far away from home as possible. All had gotten what they had been promised, a small fortune. Some of the more hard-core pirates were disappointed that they wouldn’t get a shot at the well defended Deatharon trade lanes, but a job was a job. The “Frog” itself made a hyper drive jump back to Ihrentan, where the salvage would be put to good use on the black market.

“Too bad we couldn’t capture any live ones,” Hiln lamented as the ship shot through space.

“I thought you said POWs were a hassle,” the Captain said, puzzled.

“Yeah, but those humans will pay out their non-existent gills on the flesh market.”

“That they will, boss, that they will.”

OOC: let's just say they didn't anticipate that every molecule in the ship would be torn from another while the ship was still getting fully where it is. I just said the heat. I know full well it can't become a protostar with no mass.

OOC: Wait, are we talking about the same kind of protostar here? You know, protostars' big line-life is the fact they're fricken clouds of gas that have only begun to move together. "Heat" isn't going to cut it, nore is some "dimesnional rift", because if you introduce mater into our universe you have, essentially, destroyed our universe (due to the First Law of Thermodynamics).

Look, even if you make a protostar: all that's going to happen when I disturb it is the release of radiation. Heck, not even the gravitational forces (which aren't that great) or the temperature (10 to 20 kelvins) will do anything. The only true "damaging" effect will be billions of minute particles speeding off inflicting kinetic damage. Of course, if a ship didn't have a shield or the armor plating enough to handle such a bombarsion, then it would die the second it took off (after all, there is a cosmic medium).

So, what do you want to do? If you really want the protostar, I'll RP it, but it won't do anything.

OOC: Alright. Then it's just very, very hot and radioactive.

But that was not all, as every active weapon fired on the orb as well.
The weaponry passed throught the sphere as the HUP shields worked as designed.

OOC: So what would affect it?

OOC: Alright. Then it's just very, very hot and radioactive.

OOC: The protostar? It's only going to be a few dozen kelvins in temperature. That's freezing (though not as cold as vaccum).

Alright, here we go:

IC:

A protostar devolped from the destroyed ships. The radiation, well within acceptable parameters, did not effect Balder or the equipment on board the Surt. The heat, only slightly raising the temperature, did not present any reall threat to the Asgard shields.

Balder sent out the following message:

To the people of the Zatarack, you're techology is primitive compared to our own. Continuing such an attack would prove useless. I need to but call the three larger, more powerful ships in this area (OOC: see previous posts) and you will be destroyed utterly. We give you a chance to surrender peacefully. Leave now, or perrish.

Balder sent out the following message:

OOC: Well I was misinformed. it's not like a protostar. Let's just say the two ships have become a very dangerous hazard.

The Nietzschean ships swung through the void; weapons roaring in harmony with their pilots roars of fury and determination. Waves of scathing fire hurtled towards the Zataracki vessels as the Nietzscheans tore through the void; searing the fabric of space as they dodged about the debris field; weapons roarign in carnal fury.

"This is Fleet Marshall William Ataturk of the Drago-Kasov Pride; enemies of the Republic, surrender or you shall be boarded. We have come to defend our...allies, honor."

OOC: So what would affect it?
ooc: lots and lots of fire. Volume over power.

OOC: Well I was misinformed. it's not like a protostar. Let's just say the two ships have become a very dangerous hazard.

OOC: Alright, that's it.

Look, I can deal with soft Sci-fi, but please! You need to give me something here! You don't give casualty reports, you create crazy weapons that don't work, and now you want me to treat the ships as "very dangerous hazards."

No. I'm not going to. You need to do better than that. What kind of hazards, why and how...

I'm not trying to be mean, or anything, but I just am having a hard time rping against someone giving little effort or information.

Look, I need to call it a night right now: but I'll check back tomorrow. Please sort our the "hazard" by then?

Thank you kindly.

OOC@Theao: It has a lot of firepower.

"Then we shall have to take a more direct approach, kludge" He spat to one side as he gave the order. "All vessels, commence full bombarment of the enemy fleet in accordance with Nietzschean Tactical Offensive order 57; defence of allies and allied interests. Ahead full; give me full tactical control."

The three hundred ships; mostly Garuda class heavy fighters, plunged into the fray; opening up with a steady weapons barrage; continuing their assault against Zatarackians, enjoying the superiority of war and combat; the distinct glee that fuelled their every urge and desire.

"Very well. With little choice left but to accept your terms, we will do so.

The FTLi field dropped, and the ships began to repower the FTL drives. The admiral, incensed, was prepared, if another shot hit his ships, to fire devastating weaponry, weaponry illegal by the new Star League laws, weaponry that was equal to the nameless fear of the night.

He quickly ran a punitive scan on the Asgard vessels, and found them somewhat pleasing. Although not supreme examples of technology, they had much effort put into them, and were well-built. He had no doubt that a single good attack would shatter them, as they did have their flaws. However, this was neither the time, nor place. He longed to put himself against worthy foes, but he loved life more...

The HUP shield continued to protect the ship, thought they knew eventually the waveform patterns would cross, as they had with the ramming ship.

OOC: Good graces! I go to work out for a couple of hours and this war descends into utter chaos.

IC: Admiral Trife watched all the petty figthing over salvage with complete disgust. "Keep those damn salvagers away from my ships. If they get close, destroy them!"

Major Kayhul walked up with a report. "Sir the New Dornalia fleet has arrived and would liked to be updated on the situation."

"Get me a Comm to them."

Hail New Dornalian fleet. This is Admiral Trife of the Abh Empire. I have taken over command of this operation as the Neo Zetan vessels have withdranw behind my fleet to regroup. I ask that form up on our location and standby for further instructions. There may be a fight yet on our hands. Oh and do watch out for those bloody pirates.

The Admiral just received the damage report. The ten patrolships sent to help a down flagship are currently missing. 20 Guardships were destroyed while the five that were out of action are currently back in service but only operating at about eighty percent. The Frontlineships suffered no casualties since they were not attacked. 15 Attack Vessels were destroyed and reports were still coming in. All in all not to bad. They had started with eight hundred ships and lost thirty-five and ten were missing in action.

"Get me the Commander of the Deatharon forces"

You're time is up. Have you and your allies reached a decision yet?

"You call that a bombardment? This is a bombardment" as a massive near-solid wall of fire came from the fleet, consisting of rail gun projectiles, plasma cannons, "Boomers" and "Beemers."

OOC: Losses please?

IC:

Nietzschean fighters fell, left and right; at least ten, as the sturdier craft opened up with another bombardment of heavy weapons, roaring towards the enemy. "You'll have to do better than that, whelps" Ataturk hissed, commanding them to again open fire; a roar echoing about the ship as guns went off and torpedoes saturated space.

ooc: There is no way I can keep up with this thread, or much of the war for that matter, due to school matters. I'm pulling out, sorry.

Ic: The Kazeci Guns had long since ceased firing, but now the ships began to disappear in brilliant flashes of bluish white light. No explanation was offered to the Republic or its allies at the moment.

A single transmission was sent by Balder and the Asgard.

"Thank you for your cooperation, Admiral. As we promised, any and all aid you require will be given without hesitation. You should flee immediately. Despirate times call for desperite measures, and your ships should not sustain any more damage. If you wish it, the Asgard can give you a quick retreat."

The bridge continued receiving casualty reports from all over the ship... and all over the fleet for that matter. And now the Asgard had entered the war, and if Kahanistan's intelligence service, the Mukhabarat Al-Kahanistan, was doing its job correctly interpreting what was coming in, the Asgard had joined on the side of Deatharon.

General al-Aziz and 17 of his ships had barely escaped the last engagement, the other 13 either destroyed or "salvaged" by the local privateers. Grimly, he opened two channels, one to the Deatharon commander and one to the Asgard commander. He played the same message on both channels.

"This is General Abu Hamza al-Aziz of the Kahanistan Navy. We wish to discuss peace. The terms we are willing to offer are that any prisoners of war that have been captured be returned to us. If they are dead, we will require their bodies as proof and to be taken back to Kahanistan for cryonic preservation. In exchange, we will release any prisoners we have captured who have not yet been turned into Halal Puppy Chow®. Furthermore, we will withdraw our forces to Earth immediately and cease active hostilities. A peace treaty can be negotiated at a later date."

He closed the channel, then sat back in his chair and swilled two whole bottles of pure Kahanistan Ale. The stress of the war was finally pushing him to the breaking point.

OOC: Losses please?

OOC A gunship, 5 fighter-bombers.

IC: "Learn to aim" as the ships fired their repulsors on each other and quickly moved.

OOC: Good graces! I go to work out for a couple of hours and this war descends into utter chaos.

snip

OOC: The war hasn't descended into chaos. It's mostly the gathering of salvage.

Although the Kazeci fleet had just left and the fighting was not completely over, A smaller one returned, this time with a different mission.

5 heavy battle carriers and 8 salvage destroyers entered one of the largest debris clusters. Immediately their bays opened and many small craft poured out. The largest of these small craft went about collecting small bits of debris, sending them directly back to Kazeci space for processing through Hyperspace windows. Larger or more valuable debris was collected by teams of small craft and brought into one of the massive bays, either on the carriers or the salvage destroyers, which actually had more bay space. When they were lucky enough to find a large portion of hull, containing several decks, it was towed back. Tractor beams and transporters were also used to collect as much as possible.

Fighter wings were deployed to protect the operation.

OOC: Well I still haven't seen your losses from the bombardment (And it's not a small bombardment)

(OOC: I posted my losses back a ways. I believe it was like 5 frigates and a destroyer that has been destroyed so far.)

The Taledonian fleets turned away and ceased their attack on the Realm fleet, but they continued to fire at the Zatarack fleet who continually hassled them.

The Supreme Adrimal had ordered that any salvagers be attacked. The Deatharon ships fire upon any ship attempting to rob fallen Deatharon vessels of war. The Supreme Adrimal sends his message: The Empire wishes to end this stupidity on its borders. We will attempt to reach a diplomatic solution.

Secret IC:

The Marine Pride Fleets all cloaked and headed out of New Kathor. The Fleets orders were simply reach the border and reinforce it should the Abh and Neo Zetans try any thing dishonorable. The Fleets also had secondary orders to launch an assualt on Neo Zetan space should either side show some kind of weakness.

(OOC: I posted my losses back a ways. I believe it was like 5 frigates and a destroyer that has been destroyed so far.)

OOC: Didn't see it. Now, I am done

IC: "The salvage fleet is safe. A distraction is no longer needed" as all active Zatarack ships HTed out.

OOC: I am at a friends prob the last post for some time. The rest is up to the abh. Also sorry for the trouble my so called friend cuased....

IC: Neo Zeta is willing to give up 5% of our terrtory to form a massive Nuturle Zone. We also will turn over the founder that lead the massicer some years back. We also offer the sum of 400 billion To The Republic . Our only term is NO ship be allowed in The Nutrule Zone with out permission of Both Deatharon and Neo Zeta.

Secret IC: All Systems in Neo Zeta had armed their trillithum devices orbiting their stars. If the Republic attacked they would fall back and destroy their fleet and the world leaveing them nothing. Also anti lightspeed devices were armed in key systems.


OOC2: I gave these terms to the abh but since i stoped by my friends house i thought i would go ahead and post them as well as say goodbye for awhile untell my grades improve. Also i still leave the fleets under the Abh untell such time as peace. Peace out

The Supreme Adrimal Hvei replies: Your terms acceptable and the Empire agrees with them.

OOC: Last post for tonight.

Admiral Trife monitored the transaction between Neo Zeta and the Deatharons. "Well it looks like that's it for now. I want the fleet to pull back behind the Nuetral Zone along with the Neo Zeta fleet. We will remain here until all fleets leave to make sure that the enemy doesn't try anything dishonorable."

The Abh fleet pulled back behind the Neutral Zone along with Neo Zeta vessels. The ten patrolships that were missing finally reported back in after receiving minor damgaes.

The bridge continued receiving casualty reports from all over the ship... and all over the fleet for that matter. And now the Asgard had entered the war, and if Kahanistan's intelligence service, the Mukhabarat Al-Kahanistan, was doing its job correctly interpreting what was coming in, the Asgard had joined on the side of Deatharon.

*Fzzzz-BLISSSSSSSSH!!*

Balder, still sitting in his great throned chair, appeared with a brilliant azure flash on the bridge of the Kahanistan. It was obviously a hollogram: as an crewman accidentally charged right through the being. With a great ripple, Balder squinted his eyes a bit at the crewman before turning towards the General.

"Greetings, General Abu Hamza al-Aziz. I am Balder, Commander of the Asgard Fleet and Captain of the Surt. We have heard your plea for assistance. The Asgard would be honored to negotiate a peace settlement. If you would please hold for one moment..."

*Fzzzz-BLISSSSSSSSH!!* *Fzzzz-BLISSSSSSSSH!!* *Fzzzz-BLISSSSSSSSH!!*

The sound repeated itself over and over again, as cascades of bright-blue light appeared throughout the ship.

"As the salvagers were...defiling the wrecked ships, the Surt conducted a rescue mission. Those flashes of light were transport beams. We have returned all recovered non-military material and personal belonging to Kahanistan forces," Balder said, his large charcoal eyes resting in a laconic fasion, "We estimate a total of twenty-three thousand pounds of food, clothing, and medical supplies are occupying the cargo space of three ships in your fleet. Additionally, twenty-one hundred personel have been recovered and transported to medical bays throughout your vessels. Four-hundred and thirty seven were found dead with third degree radiation burns. We have successfully revived three-hundred and seventy two. These, as well as the casualties (frozen, upon your request), have been transported to whatever free rooms we could find."

Balder cocked his head slightly, turning to look at the crewmen, "I hope such an intrusion has not angered you. You're ships have been severely weakened, and speed will be your primary concern."

Secret IC:

The Marine Pride Fleets were still cloaked and on the outskirts of the battle. All Four Marine Fleets had there orders as stated before. The A.I.s of the Marine Starcommand comunicated with the A.I.s of the other military branchs. The Neo Zetans and Abh had shown a severe weakness in giving up so much in there diplomatic talks. The Marine Fleets prepared to "sneak into" Neo Zeta's borders and begin the surpise attack against Doth. Supreme Adrimal Hvei sent coded messages to the Antaran Central Command to call of the attack. He has so far recieved no word from the Central Command.

The ComEnt fleet had recalled it's massed fighter squadrons, as well as begining repairs where needed.

(OOC: Deatharon, I hope you mean you accept as if it were a gift. We will still do negoatiations which will be even more...benificial, to the Republic later. And if nobody is opposed, I will go ahead and make the diplomatic thread?)

OOC: That is what we meant


Secret IC: The Antaran Central Command sent another coded message the attack was called off. The Marines would be needed to defend the Empire's internal space from possiable pirate attacks and protect fallen Deatharon ships from salvagers. The known Salavger nations such as Zatarack and Ihrentan would be dealt with once the Antaran Hegemonic Star Navy and the Imperial Space Navy were at full strength.

Admiral Trife monitored the transaction between Neo Zeta and the Deatharons. "Well it looks like that's it for now. I want the fleet to pull back behind the Nuetral Zone along with the Neo Zeta fleet. We will remain here until all fleets leave to make sure that the enemy doesn't try anything dishonorable."

The Abh fleet pulled back behind the Neutral Zone along with Neo Zeta vessels. The ten patrolships that were missing finally reported back in after receiving minor damgaes.

Torusumi ordered the fleet to withdraw and regroup with the Abh forces. She ordered her squadron on alert as they did so.

(OOC: Well, I see no objections to it so I'm starting the diplomatic thread.)

The Cloaked Pride Fleets held there positions. Should the other side attempt to enter into the Neutral Zone war, would begin again.

Admiral Trife paced about the ship and grumbled about the outcome of the battle. Major Kayhul noticed his aggitation. "You don't agree with the outcome?"

Trife turned and glared "Of course not! But what they do with their territory is of no concern to us. Our Empire is still intact without any loss of territory and we only had minimal casualties. Get in touch with HQ and Neo Zeta. We will start fortifying the border and station a garrison here. We'll need an orbiting station for the men. Set up a small anti-matter factory and a repair dock. The Sord's current location is fine for now. A small mine field would also be a plus. Get in touch with the supply fleet and we'll launch mines on the border of the Neutral Zone."

"Yes Admiral. I'll inform headquarters right away.

OOC: I am here at the request of Neo Zeta.

IC: An Eternal ship observed from a far distacne the remains of the battle and the battle still be waged within it's wreakage. The Eternal ship was sent by the Eternals of the religion of the Eternals. It had come as faithful to the Eternals had fallen in the battle and though they were very few amongst the countless dead of the ruin, but yet the Eternals had come to claim their souls and bring them to eternal life and paradise.

OOC: NZ also called me in.

IC:A task force of one Imperial Star Destroyer and four escort frigates jumped in system, having sensed a battle in the making.

What's going on here?

The Revelation sent the notice on a wide-band frequency.

Admiral Trife smiled as he received the unexpected news of Coreworld making an appearance. "Get me patched in with the commander of the Star Destroyer."

This is Admiral Trife of the Abh Empire. I'm pleased to see that you have arrived. The current situation is that Deatharon threatened Neo Zeta and war has broken out. We are currently at a stalemate at the moment although 5% of Neo Zeta's territory has been seceeded to Deatharon as a Neutral Zone. They have also agreed to pay an unheard of amount for damage done and agreed to hand over the Founder that was 'responsible' for the attack.

The Supreme Adrimal Hvei gave the orders to set up a massive amount of mines along the Deatharon Side of the Neutral Zone. He also ordered the construction of Fleet bases and a Wormhole Gate for quick responses in case of the next Neo Zetan Invasion.

The news of the victory had reached the Empire and a Galaxy wide Celebration was taking place. The Slaves were even allowed to enjoy this great victory agaisnt the Evil Neo Zetans and there Demonic allies.

The Marine Fleets Stayed cloaked and did not enter the Neutral Zone the sudden arrival of the Core Worlds and Eternals Ships had worried them and they prepared to decloak and attack at the drop of a hat.

The Antaran Hegmonic Fleets had fallen back to New Kathor for repairs, They took what was left of there comrades and wrecked ships in the hopes of bring back both assets. The Imperial Space Fleets followed suite.

The Eternal ship activated is shields and it weapons were turned on. But, the Eternals would not use deadly force against the forces of Deatharon as they did not wish for another war to begin.

OOC: Do you mind if I just hit you with a beam that temporaily disabled your ships weapons?

Major Kayhul received the new updates to the status of the operation. "Sir it seems that the supply fleet has arrived from Neo Zeta and are carrying five thousand of a new type of mobile mine. They are equipped with cloaking technology and can be fired from our own Frontlineships. The repair facilities are at 20% complete while the anti-matter factory is only at about 10% complete. I'm afraid that it is behind schedule. The garrison that you ordered is coming from the capital itself though they are a newly formed squadron. There will be about one hundred Patrolships and two hundred Attack Vessels. Of course we will be required to stay to brief them on the situation and their duties. They shall arrive in about twenty four hours. The mobile station is almost here. It will be about two hours before it arrives."

Admiral Trife had his arms crossed and his chin in the palm of his right hand. "Excellent work. Begin resupplying the Frontlineships with the new cloaked mines and tell them to position the mines on the fringe of the NZ. What else is there?"

"We have brought several stations from the Neo Zeta government as well. We have been given anti-cloak sensors along with Anti-Light Speed and Wormhole stations."

Trife smiled. "Hmmmmmmmm. Yes, very good. Place the Anti-Light Speed and Wormhole stations at the very edge of the NZ. Place the Anti-Cloak sensors behind the stations. Reinforce the front with the 5,000 cloaked mines behind it all. I want a wall so they pay dearly for trying to cross the NZ."

Major Kayhul gave a curt bow "It shall be done right away Admiral."

A few hours later the stations were in placed and the 5,000 mines were placed as reinforcement.

(OOC: May I remind everyone that the peace conference thread is up and only two people have showed up so far. Or if you would all prefer to just continue blowing each other up, we'd be happy to oblige, and it will be more fun with the freshly laid minefield.)

OOC: I didn't even know there was a peace conference thread.

(OOC: Then I suggest you check the OOC thread more often, Abh.)

OOC: Then it would be nice if I knew there was an OOC thread.

OOC: well where is this OOC thread and peace conference thread?

The 4,000 heavy mines were in place. The secondary Anti-matter hunter killer mines were currently being dispersed through out the main area. The Psy Shields were in place in case the Abh or Neo Zeta decided to strike agaisnt mines before a surpised sneak attack. The Fleet Bases and Wormhole Gate was nearly completed though the slave workers were vastly behind there schedule they were given more time to do the job properly and because everyone in the Empire was in a good mode about the current side battle.


OOC: Eternals if you try to hit Deatharon ships with paralyzing weapons. The Antarans our Elder Race will get involed with one of there defensive fleets and this fight will just start up again. It is really your choice.

(OOC: If you want to find the OOC thread, go to the search option and type in "War of Libration", then it will bring up a list.)

IC: The Eternal ship fired paralzying beams at the ships enough to only to overpower the engines for a short period of time that were shield piercing. The intent was only to show them that the Eternals would not destroy them, but would not stop for them.

The Marine Ships were forced to halt in there tracks. The Fleet Command base, however alerted the Antaran Green Fleet and Antaran Crimsion Fleet. The Antarans an Elder Civilization that controls the Antaries Galaxy. Would not let the Eternals try to muscle there way in to the situation. The Antaran Fleets use the now completed Wormhole Gate to jump into border were they open fire upon the Eternal ships. The Mines also head at the Eternal ships. The violence has started again.

(OOC: w00t! More war, Scandinvans, you made a terrible mistake. Anywho...)

IC:

Looking through the bridge window at the Deatharon fleet engaging the Scandinvans now, he ordered the fleet to remain powered down to show the other fleets that they meant no harm. They were confident in the Consular nations ability to deal with one simple nation of religions freaks.

The Eternal ship opened fire open the mines destroying them one by one then it went to claim the souls of those that had fallen on the battle that were faithful to the Eternals till the end. Though it refused to fight the ships of Deatharon straight on currently it would not be unwilling to fight them if forces to.

OOC: I do not post the results of my enemies ships, but I tend to think of a few mines as a simple matter to deal with while an entire sector of mine fields is another. Also they are Eternals not my MT Empire of the Scandinvans.

The Kazeci salvage fleet divided into three groups and expanded outward, collecting any and all debris not of Republic origin or whose origin could not be determined.

"No. I have a better idea. Let us stop this foolish war once and for all. We need law imposed on the Zetans, otherwise we'll lose trade, and we need our trade routes unblocked. I am commissioning the Seventh Fleet to move in there, disable any aggressors with extreme prejudice, and then establish an FTLi field, one of those ones we've been working on for ages. If I remember correctly, our studies of Eternal, Deatharon, Taledonian and Abh engines should prove them easy to disable, however, it may not prove effective against Kazeci and any other minor players. Move out."

A fleet began skimming its way through Truespace, the improved engines whiling away the parsecs, as the few minutes left to arrival began to tick down. The Truespace corridor that had already been established made travel far easier, which would prove beneficial to trading routes, once the war was over.

Greed, not pride, however, motivated this incursion, and, as the ships left Truespace, their forms shimmering into being with a series of blue flashes, a single message left the ships, which was, of course, the only warning the intruders would receive.

"You are intruding on soveriegn Deatharon territory, which is held by the Empire of Deatharon, fully dated and accorded. You are hampering trade between the nations, as well as hampering peace talks. Records from probes show that the damnable Eternal people are responsible for this; your affinity for causing strife and damnation throughout the galaxy is well known, and the idiocy you seek to spread here shall go no further! Lay down your weapons, and instigate no further strife!"

Each ship's weapons whined, as they went online, and they aimed at the Eternal ships. Amusingly enough, it seemed, eternal life also gave one eternal slowness. The ships were outdated by League standards, and what few 'miracles' they could perform would not save them if they so chose to commit an act of aggression.

More amusingly, was to be the Deatharon reaction. HT forces had been so long enemies to them, what would they do in reaction?

OOC: Going to proce you wrong.

IC: The Eternals ship were not outdated by these simple ships and weapons of the younger races they found that infact there ships were had quite primitive shielding as they ships themselves they recongized were well armed, quite fast, and had strong hulls.

OOC: Thinking a lack of shields as your ships seemed to be designed for speed.

IC: A message was sent to all Deatharon ships reading:
"We have come not to harm you. We have only come to claim the souls of the faithful that died here so that they may recieve proper burials and their souls be free to have bliss and paradise forever. Yet we also have not forgotten that your part in aiding the Dark Eternals was never tried nor have you asked forgivness. What say you? Will you let us passed unharmed?"

The Antaran Crimsion Fleet unleash distengrator fire upon the Eternal Ships. The Antaran Green Fleet kept up a barrage of Point singualrity fire. The Antarans had not seen another Elder race since the Sayians of Neo Zeta and they were eager to test there Hegemony's might agaisnt the Eternals an Elder race heard of in rumors.

The Antaran Central Command was surpised by the Realms sudden involement in helping the Empire in its goal of defeating this new hostile power. They send a message to the Realm : (Your help would be appericated by the United Galactic Empire of Deatharon.)

The Grand Adrimal Hvei sends a message to the Eternals: (The Empire betrayed the Dark Eternals under Neo Zetan request. Do not mince your facts of our work for the Dark Eternals. You have proven yourself an enemy of the Empire and will be dealt with like any other enemy.)

ooc: it may not prove effective against Kazeci and any other minor players. If I interpret this correct, I'm the most major of the minor players? A minor player? The might of Kazecistan...

I suppose that in this battle, though, I'm not a huge influence.

Ic: Immediately, all resource gathering operations stopped. Large wings of fighters spread like fire on a fuel slick through the area, enforcing the words of the Kazeci diplomat at the conference.

OOC: Going to proce you wrong.
OOC: Thinking a lack of shields as your ships seemed to be designed for speed.
"

OOC: Doubtful. I'm three times the effective power, and these ships are designed for uberzorsness. Of course, I have less than twenty of them, and they're very expensive, but they are essentially the pinnacle of my technology. The reason for my speed in arriving is that a fleet has already created a Truespace corridor here, and it hasn't had time to collapse. Normally travel can take up to ten times as long, but my form of FTL becomes more effective as it is used in the same place over and over again.
My ships are sleek, streamlined, and created for war. The impression I get from your ship is that it isn't a warship, but a civilian vessel, enhanced by the fact that you have a "soul-retrieving" device, so it really wouldn't be all that effective in warfare at all. (Also, are you responding to my IC post?)

OOC: You have less than a billion people. Essentially, this gives you a 'rating' of 0.89. A billion is when a nation, FT or not, truly comes into its power at a billion, which is still small fry in today's huge nations.

The Eternals responded to Deatharon's message:
"Check your ships none have been harmed in any way and all your ships syestems shall be restored shortly after we retrieve the souls of only of those faithful to the Eternals. Also we alone have held by the Dark Eternals menace for untold years and we alone have been able to defeat them utterly in battle though a few have triumphed, but that took an Elder race far greater then you. We come here also to offer to revive your dead."

OOC: HT sorry didn't much about your ships. Also do not think it is unarmed it has enough armanent to defend itself.

A message was sent to the HT fleet:
"We do not mean any harm to anyone here so please do not assail our ship as also if you wish we can revive your dead."

OOC: I am only reviving the recently dead do not bring me some body of a million mummy that you want to be brought back so that you may conquer tthe universe. This OOC was just a joke! ahahahah

The Supreme Adrimal responds: You have fired upon Imperial ships and threatened Imperial security by disableing there defenses. The Antaran Hegemony will not allow you to interfer with our territory. We may lack numbers but our navy can hold you off untill our allies come to finish the Eternal Empire.

OOC: You have less than a billion people. Essentially, this gives you a 'rating' of 0.89. A billion is when a nation, FT or not, truly comes into its power at a billion, which is still small fry in today's huge nations.

(OOC: So true, if only I still had my original nation today, I would have about 5 billion. So sad...)

IC:

While everyone else bickered and salvaged, the Taledonian support frigates went to work repairing the fleets.

Kazeci fleets, in light of the other nation's actions, resumed gathering scrap at a feverish pace. Much of the material was broken into base elements and sent through a Hyperspace window back to various Kazeci processing facilities.

The Marine Ships start collecting the fallen Deatharon warships and send them through the Wormhole Gate were they are sent to the processing center on Hana.


OOC: Wormhole gates are our stargates, Hana is a system that is in the inner territories of the Empire.

Major Kayhul brought the Admiral a report from Darth Vicious. Trife looked it over and smiled. "So Doron as at these 'peace talks'. That should be interesting. Well we better get on with his instructions. Have the patrolships fire their rifles at any scrap or ship that is unsalvageable from our fleet. Send an open message warning all those hear to be aware of the incoming fire."

"Right away Admiral."

From the Abh Fleet: We are preparing to open fire and destroy any scrap or damaged ship in the area. Do try and be careful. It would be a shame if any of your ships got destroyed in the fire.

The 80 or so Patrolships in the area opened fire destroying all debris in the region that belonged to the Empire.

(OOC: So true, if only I still had my original nation today, I would have about 5 billion. So sad...)

IC:

While everyone else bickered and salvaged, the Taledonian support frigates went to work repairing the fleets.

OOC: Indeed.... I was one of the early-players of NS, however, I played it for perhaps a day, my juvenile mind got bored, and I didn't keep my nation. I distinctly remember the name was comprised entirely out of non-alphabetic characters, which may have been why I abandoned it.

OOC: HT sorry didn't much about your ships. Also do not think it is unarmed it has enough armanent to defend itself.

A message was sent to the HT fleet:
"We do not mean any harm to anyone here so please do not assail our ship as also if you wish we can revive your dead."

OOC: I am only reviving the recently dead do not bring me some body of a million mummy that you want to be brought back so that you may conquer tthe universe. This OOC was just a joke! ahahahah

OOC: Defending and unleashing living hell unto your enemies are two different things. For instance, my merchant shuttles can defend themselves, but they'll still be obliterated by a decent frigate.

"We thank you for your offer, and reiterate that you should not fire upon the Deatharon fleet while in Deatharon space. (OOC: Never mind the fact that I did, I'm special!) However, our dead are being downloaded, and will soon be in effective heaven, and their memory will contribute to the good of the nation. Their bodies have been instantly decomposed, and the remainder of the plasteel scrap seems to be headed towards the scum-sucki-. Whoops! The right honourable Kazeci way!"

The fleet slowly powered down their weaponry, the whining of the heated guns and cannons fading, as the energy resonance began to slow, and the generators also began to slow down...

ooc: I saw that...

Ic: The Kazeci fighter wings changed course, flocking toward the Zatarac (sp) fleets.

The Eternals responded:
"We therefore on the basis of your threats withdraw the Eternal Empire's protection of you agianst the Dark Eternals and therefore if you appeal to us ofr aid you will be denied it and do not think that the Eternal Empire will answer if you ask for our help."

Meanwhile the Eternals summon an entire armada of great and mighty Eternal warships many thousands strong with untold millions of warriors in it to defend the Eternal Empire if needed.

The Antarans know they can not defeat the Eternals in the numbers game but in technology they can more they handle them. The Antaran ships attempt a defensive formation. The goal is to keep the Eternals from trying to disable the Imperial ships. The Antaran knew from experience that there ships could handle the Eternals weapons.

OOC: Pardon me, but you claim to have more advanced technology then the Eternals who have been wagin war for billions of years and are three billion years older. But, I get that you are thinking that they are only disabling your ships.

The Eternal armada did not enter the battle. Instead it just awaited on the borders of the Eternal Empire awaiting the call from the Eternals' ship. Meanwhile, the lone Eternal ship continued forward utterly ignoring the Deatharon and Antarna ships and just went onto the remains of the old battle and began collecting souls of noly Neo Zetan soldiers who were faithful to the Eternals.

OOC: Keep in mind I am writing from Antaran point of view. They think they our superior to everything they meet and they are known to be a little cocky in a fight. They are fearing a massive invasion. Keep in mind they only number in a few million agaisnt your billions of Eternals. They would need the might of the Entire galaxy to win but they are trying to put up a noble defensive front (in there own way.)

IC: The Antaran ships leave the Eternal ship alone. The orders our to only fire if it fires first.

OOC: Pardon me, but you claim to have more advanced technology then the Eternals who have been wagin war for billions of years and are three billion years older. But, I get that you are thinking that they are only disabling your ships.

OOC: Precisely. Think about it. People that live for billions of years will be equally slow, and won't adapt nearly as fast as humanity does. Lifespan = innovation, trust me on this one. Intelligent beings who only live for a year would easily out-technologify humanity within a matter of centuries, and sentients who lived for a million would be infinitely slower. When your lifespan is long, you wouldn't really feel any need to hurry.

OOC: Awhh, but yet humans only live for short time periods and each new generation has spend a large portion of their life learning everything were the other ones left so yet they do more with their lives they have less time to work on it. While immortal beings have the adavantage of the being able to work on a project for thousands of years prefecting while humans usally create flawed technolgies.

OOC: But Humans have a major advanctage. Their lives are so short they try to make the best of it and better them selfs. While Immortals really can put it off. Sooner our later Humans will be the Ultament Elder Race. This comes from many shows such as Star Trek Where Q says it and in Stargate when the Asgard see the Humans as fastly on their way to being the 5th race.

OOC: A moot point, I'm afraid. It's called levels of technology. For instance, do all programmers learn how to build a computer? No.

Do all computer building people learn how to make every single small part they put together? No. You see what I mean? People only have to learn a certain 'level' of knowledge, not all the profoundness behind it.
