A few hundred years ago, they started. The Great Purges, as they were known in Void Templar, against the alien races in and surrounding it's territory. One such race was the nation of Tyraniue. For 76 years, there was a huge war between the two nations, eventually ending in the obliteration of Tyraniue. Or so they thought...

Now, 400 years later, the descendants of the survivors of the Purges fight back. Mobolising for war, the newly declared nation of SithTyranus marches to war against the reign of Emperor Torqemarda. Torqemarda has lived for 500 years via unknown means and rules by a tyrannical fist, inspiring xenophobic fear in the population. As the war expands, the entire cluster of Varius threatens to be pulled into the conflict.

In orbit above Tyraniue, a battle groupe consisting of 4 Tet (http://scifipedia.scifi.com/images/thumb/7/78/BaseStar_001.jpg/325px-BaseStar_001.jpg) and 3 pennance cruisers (http://www.geocities.com/twiztid_freak_25/ASgard.JPG) floated, thier engins glowing a pale blue against the utter darkness of space.

From the underside of the lead pennance class ship (the D.E.S. Pennance) a group of stealth transports (http://www.galacticempiredatabank.com/TIEBomber.jpg)and and silent hunter fighter bombers (http://us.games-workshop.com/news/events/trade/dallasapocalypse/images/oohbaracuda.jpg)decended out of the main hanger. Once clear they drifted silently and swiftly to the surface, heading to the specified meeting point between the Chupakabras and Dragona forces, thier dark hulls matching perfectly with the back drop of space behind then, the night sky around them.

The lead trnsport started to braodcast a message just before it, along with the rest of its squad, cloaked. The message read simply Chupakabra allys. This is High general Hitmon li. We are aproching the specified meetin point, are we clear to land?".

At the residance of Torqemarda another message was just being recived, it read thusly:
You have this one last chance to relinquish controle of these teritorys to thier rightful rulers that they may recover from the uncalled for purgings enacted upon them. For centurys we have tolerated your residance here but no longer! Withdraw or you will feel the might of our guns and rue they day you invaded these lands. This is your final warning.
Regards, imperial war ministery of the D.E.

You have this one last chance to relinquish controle of these teritorys to thier rightful rulers that they may recover from the uncalled for purgings enacted upon them. For centurys we have tolerated your residance here but no longer! Withdraw or you will feel the might of our guns and rue they day you invaded these lands. This is your final warning.
Regards, imperial war ministery of the D.E.

On the Capital Planet of Void Templar, Necrum Sil, Torqemarda read the message with a scowl.
Well, with a grin technically as he always wore that odd Jester's mask, but under it he frowned.
"These uppity Halfbreeds demand something they do not deserve, something we rightfully own." He spoke to the Prime Ordinator, Lord Chancellor Maleficius Arcato. "We must respond with a show of force. It's the only thing these savages respect." Maleficius nodded. He wore a long black trench coat, jean and gloves. He also wore a black rebreather/gas mask, which enabled him to breath oxygen. Maleficius wasn't human, wasn't asari... Wasn't of any known race. What he was was skilled, vicious and brutal.
"I will send a message immediately." His voice, already cold and multi tonal, was made robotic by the mask. A message was sent to the Dragona.

The Empire of the Void's lands are rightfully controlled. Any threat to them would be an obvious act of war, and would be responded to as such.

on a none serious and not related note:fluffle: OMG THEY ARE SUCFING UP EAH OThER HAIrS1!!!!

now serious:

General Jadin, desendant of the greatly respented St. Saka, was in his tent in the 27th Hallith ecampment looking over his battle map. 5million Chupakabras and 2 billion Dragonas agaisnt nearly 3billion Templarians
and 766million Vkains. it didnt bound particually well for his side, but a fight is what Chupakabras give best.

A light on the side of the map glowed brightly and a messgae came up
'Chupakabra allys. This is High general Hitmon li. We are aproching the specified meetin point, are we clear to land?'

Jadin typed back a message:
'your request has been granted'

When the message reached the high imperial court a responce wasquickly devised. "..And so we plan to move 4th, 6th and 9th fleets to cut the planet off from the rest of the templarian empire"
"Very well" said the emporer, pressing a button on his desk he said to his secretery over the intercom "Cathila, emergancy code Omega is effective as of now!"
Cathila reacted calmly, sending the relavent activation code to the imperial comunications center and 10 minutes later every audio and vidieo entertainment devices broadcast was cut off and replaced with a live image of the emporer at his desk.

"Great citizens of the Dragona empire, I sit before you today, to carry out a solem duty. As many are aware the teritory of Tyraniue has been under the contested rule of the void templarians for nigh on 4 centurys. The Templarians have failed to comply with our ultiumatum request for withdrawal.

And so, my proud citizens, as of today, it is my solem duty to inform you that we are at a state of war with the Empire of the Void templarians. I expect each of you to show the utmost morality, spirituality and ferocity that we have shown to all our foes in the past for it is thrugh this that we ultimatly achive victory. We are, as always fighting for a moral cause, the freedom of 5 million people who have been opressed for centurys, The Chupakabra no less "there was a general stir at this as many knew of how strong the ties between the chupakabra and the dragona have been in the past "They have earned the right to our help have they not? They have shed thier fair shed of blood to help keep this nation standing tall, so i say once more LET US HOW THESE ENIMYS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DEFY OUR GREAT EMPIRE!!" the emporer concluded to a round of rigorus aplause in the public ares that had recived the braodcast.

At the words as of today, it is my solem duty to inform you that we are at a state of war the ships in orbit opened up on the Templarian citys nearest the Chupakabra encampments.

In the encampment the transports glided silently into the most open space they could find and disembarked the some 300 troops they had been carying along with the General. "Move to defncive positions at the camps perimiter!!" the general yelled to the men who proceded to do so without question, thier black armor giving them the apearnce of a cloud of oil (as in black oil) drifting thrugh water. Turning to the nearest Chupakabra trooper he said, "I belive the phrase goes :take me to your leader."

OOC: i believe the thing to return is 'cocking head to side and then shooting you with a more primative or occasionly more advanced gun'

IC: the flap in Jadin's tent opened and looking up he saw the Dragona General Hitmon Li entered the tent. 'I'm guessing that by your arival and the loud noises out side that your people have agreeded to help us, and thus opened up full scale war' Jadin waved his disfigered arm to a chair and Hitmon Li took it. 'I'm also going to asume that you have brought men here to help defend from the other noise.' Jadin turned back to the map and pushing a button said 'power up the shields and gun batterys. Ready the sniper and ambush groups, prep the fighters and bombers for launch.' Turning back to Hitmon Li 'My final asumsion is that you are have an attack plan to give us more of a foothold.'

Settling into the chair he was offered Hitmon replyed
"For now we plan to clear a significant patch of land for you to use to merge your borders and still have a relativly large No-mans land between us and the Templarians. I have braught 300 men with me to help defend this position, craft will depart from the battle group in orbit and deposit similar or larger forces in you other frontline enampments.

Lastly we have a militery convoy carrying some 6 million troops and thier equipment, vehicles and a few canisters of biological agent Theta. Belive me we wont use it unless we have to." Pausing for a moment he continued "I expect that the Templarians will move a few ships to engage us soon and that they will lickly detect your energy shield, excuse me for a moment " he taped the crest guard on his helmet and uttered a few words into a conceld microphone in his lower jaw guard. "I have requisitioned a further 300 men.They will beam down just beyond the shields perimiter and fly the rest of the way if posable. Also our escort groupe is standing by to counter any ground or air assault."

Jadin sat down in a chair oposite Hitmon,
'I, and all Chupakabras alike, apricate your assistance in this war. My only concern is that some of the weaker encampments my not hold agasint a long term siedge. If we are to stay in this war we have to take ground quickly and desisivly. Unfortuneatly, we have no reference on the defensive techniques of Templorains, I'm hoping you can give some insight into such things.'

Pressing a button on his wrist device the map-table projected a holo-gram of the nearest Templorain city.

"Sadly we have only besieged a Templarian city a few times and most of those were minor and they cared little for them. We are however calling in several punisher artilery tank (http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh161/dragonsclaw56/artileryL2P.jpg), they will utterly decimate thier defences, of that i am confident. We plan to send strike teams into the templarian subterainian ares. You know the sort of thing, subways, sewers in the literal sense, we also plan to contact thier criminal organisations. I understand thier maffia groups are eager to fight." he replyed, deploying a holo-emiter drone in the middle of the tent and bringing up the schimatics for the artilery tank, revealing its 12 mega heavy artilery pices.

Jadin rose from his seat and leaned in to get a closer look at the artillary tank. 'how many of these have you brought and about these maffia' Jadin sat back down at his chair after making a full circle of the tank, 'how can they be trusted?. I already have strike squads of 5-15 men around some of the near citys.'

"It was but a thaugt, I never truely expected them to be of much help but we can hope they will wreak havoc from within the besiged citys. In regards to the tanks we have about 50 on thier way, each with a crew of 150. I am confident we can atleast level the defences of an average city."

As the ships fired, the cities shield's clicked into place. The rounds hit the sound with a noise like thunder and inside the city, the civilians were evacuated into the shelters. The army scrambled, racing to their positions, some not even putting on their body armor. The mayor sent a scramble warning throughout the Empire, asking for aid. The pitiful fleet, consisting of only one light patrol cruiser engaged the Dragona fleet, firing lasers into the fray.

The first few laser shots impacted on the hull of the nearest Tet class ship before its shields raised, blocking the weak lasers from the patrole cruiser.
"All ships this is admaral cuis'en, full alert be ready for hostile reinforcements, Tet ships firew your starbursts at the enimy!" shouted the fleets leader.
"By your command" came the reply from the Tets centraly linked hub.

The four Tet class ships rotated to bring one of thier four starburst super guns to bear on the ship, the panels covering them sliding back to reveal a pulsing teal glow from the starburst launcher "1 minute until fireing sequince complete!" said the hub in is metalic voice (like a cylons :S)

The burst communication reached the fleet of 3's and 7's and the acting leader of the fleet, Fleet Lieutenant George Anderson, read it in silence. When he had finished, his eyes narrowed and he turned to his navigation officer.
"We're moving in to save that planet. Warp to the co-ordinates. We'll crush this pathetic rebellion without trying."

The starburst cannons finished the fireing sequence and unleashed a burst of teal energy that rocketed towards the Templarian ship.

Another light bleeped on the map table, and a Chupakabra appeared in the holo emiter 'sorry to disturb you sir, but we have detected an fleet of Templorain ships coming into range.'
'Thank you Sargent, sorry to cut your visit short Hitmon but i have to take control of the fleets, are you going to stay or...'

"All ships this is General Li, we have inteligance reporting a large fleet heading to your position, prepair to repel a large force" Hitmon cut across.
"Copy that General" the admeral said into the intercom, turning to his comms oficer he said "Request imediate assistance from as many ships as can be scrambled, this is gonna be big!". The comm oficer complyed, rapidly fireing off a series of subspace messages.

At Ulriva IV, in the Chefor militery docks the 4th, 6th and 9th fleets recived the mesage and imediatly undocked from the drydocks, transwarping to Tyraniue. In total 10 Valhala class star cannons (http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh161/dragonsclaw56/cannonL2P.jpg), 3 Dragona super destroyers (http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh161/dragonsclaw56/heavySDL2P.jpg), 6 Penance class war cruisers, 7 Kahmal class star drednaughts (http://www.shipschematics.net/bsg/images/cylon/basestar_cylon_mk2.jpg) and 2 t'pal class drone carriers (http://www.shipschematics.net/bsg/images/colonial/battlestar_galactica.jpg) headed to Tyraniue.

The tartan exploded. It was a short shower of blue and green light, then nothing for a few moments. Then, a number of minty green vortexes appeared from nothing and the 3's and 7's dropped out of hyperspace, immediately opening fire with their Gatling cannons and Prickler lasers.

"All ships, fire upon them. We shall burn their ships until they are but dust."

"In coming, they are opening up!"
"Tranport all ground troops to the surface, all ships engage those ships, lauch all suport craft" roaed the admaral as a flury of shots impacted on the shield and the penance returned the favor with a flury of blue turbolaer shots and ion bursts. The suporting fleets were still about 10 minutes away at maximum Transwarp.

The rounds impacted off the shields of the fleet.
"Damage report?"
"Shields at 85 percent and holding."
"Excellent. Launch a gravity spike at their lead ship's bridge."

The sides of the ship extended, revealing long, slender silver spikes. One of the spikes launched from the ship, hurtling towards the enemies. The rest of the fleet continued their barrage, while the twin Ace ships launched torpedo couplets from the rear.

Jadin took his place in the raised chair behind the map table. as he did it reclined so that he was now facing the celing, a map showing all detectable ships [all in their respentive colours to show friendlies]. 'Haikea take all the bombers for a run on the nearest enemy ship. I dont want you to go off by yoursevles on hero runs, the big Dragona ships have to be defeneded.' He looked to the left of the overhead map and seeing the transports coming down spoke, 'Kiaka take 1st half of the fighters to cover the Dragona transports and al over fire at will on enemy fighters!!'

One of the 3's and 7's ships started to flash as it opened fire on the STCS Kalamun light frigate...

Incoming object sir, its headed strait for the bridge, we cant stop ..." shouted the tactical before he was impaled by the gravity spike as it pierced the hull
"Damn it!!" shouted the admarl "Auxilery controle this is the brige, continue fireing. Dmage report!?"
"That spike went straight thrugh our shields, eps feilds are holding. Shields down to 60 %, we cant take much more of this. Wait a second, we are loosing artificial gravity, trying to correct the malfunction" came the reply.

There was blue flash on the edge of the system as the 3 Super destroyers droped out of transwarp, rocketing towards the battle as half the Valhalah ships droped in behind them "This is captain Tuker, Vanguard of the reinforcements has arived, lookslike we got here just in time" said the fleets leader as one of the Pennance classes shields failed and it exploded in a brilliant ball of flame.

As the Chupakabran's opened fire, the Aces turned and opened fire on the Kalamun. As the Star Destroyers appeared, Anderson frowned.
"Well, this is a pickle. Launch a burst communication, request reinforcements. Do it n..!"
---There is no need to do any such thing. I am on my way.--- The voice was not from the comm, rather from an unknown source. But any occupant of the Void recognized that voice...
Maleficius...

'This is STES Kalamun requesting emitidant assistance, lost shields and we are vents atmosphere, pulling back towards destorys but im not sure if...' the line cut off it static as a ship on the overdead map flickered a died. Jadin swor to himself in the Old Tounge, all ships start making evasive manovers, our only advantage is speed so hells damned use it!'

'This is Kaika, our bombing runs are being disrupted by thei..holy mother... seriously fight cover PLEASE'

"All baterys open fire!" shouted the captain as they got into range of the Templarians. Almost instantly several bursts of orange energy erupted from the ships several guns, then its two sister ships. The Valhalah ships followed suit, blasting first a blue ball of EMP energy at the Templarians, then a more concentrated orange beam.

The Dragonslayer and Bisaton were destroyed instantly by the Dragona's barrage, the rest's shields holding. The ships nearest the enemy turned and launched torpedo's into them, before breaking formation and flying in circles around the cumbersome star destroyers.

The Ace of Spades broke away and headed straight for planetside. It fired into Orbit, in the direction of the Tyranian camps. AT the same time, the army went over the top of their trenches, heading for the enemy.

The Ace of Space, meanwhile, flew along the underside of the ships and opened up on the Star Destroyer's shield generators.

'Sir, we have reports of a Templar ship opening fire on our camps, shields are holding for now!'

'Ok, all ships near the,' jdain quickly consulted his map, 'Templar ship Ace of Spades, engage it, same with bombers.' The over-head map zoomed out and showed 1000 Templarians charging out of their trenches towards his camp.

Quickly sending a messgae that simply said 'Jadin to Hitmon, i have 1000 enemys on route, over.' Then holding down another button he anounced, 'all hands we have enemy incomeing, sniper teams ready scopes!'

"Not for long!!" roared Hitmon into his com as he placed his sonic chain gun on its mount and opened up fireing in short, devastating burst of sonic blasts, all along the allied lines Dragona where doing the same wityh a variety of weapons, some even fireing photon bazookas "Warriers, fight by my side!!" Shouted Hitmon as his helmet closed to protect his face.

In space anonther wave of ships consiting off 7 Kahmal class star drednaughts and 6 pennance class ships droped out of Transwarp and began to aproach the battle, fireing a burst of blue energy. Another Pennance ship had been destroyed by now and one of the Tet class ships had sustained heavy damage to its super structure and was heading towards one of the Templarian ships, its remaining weapons blazing.

"Sir they are going for our shield generaters!" shouted the tactical officer, indicating the Ace of spades on the holographic display.
"Shoot it down!" replyed the captain.
A series of clickes heralded the release of the clamps holding the lower heavy cannons in palce. The cannons swivled around and began to open up on the Ace of spades, fireing 6 shots per minute.

In the forests and woodland around the camps all over the frontlines sniper squads [consiting of 16 troops spilt into teams of 2,a spoter/coverer and a shooter] were taking down Templorains.

Even through the endless barrage of fire the Templorians where gaining some ground. 'Turret command' Jadin spoke into a microphone 'ready the main cannon.'

In space bomber with fighter escorts where charging towards the Ace of Spades, dodging and diving between the exchanging lazers of the two ships.

"Men!" Yelled a man in crimson armor, "Continue onward!" One man hefted a large missile launcher and fired off 2 missiles at Hitmon. There was a thunderous crack and then a roar as three Imperialis tanks (http://www.supercheats.com/xbox360/guides/halo3/images/level4-scarabtank.jpg) crawled over the Cityscape, firing their lasers down into the fray. A number of smaller Lemun Russ tanks also rolled out, supporting the remaining 800 hundred.

In space, the Ace of Spades was taking heavy damage.
"Dammit... Whats that?" The captain yelled at the bleeps.
"Bombers incoming, sir!" The AA turrets swivled to face the bombers and fired volleys at them. The cannon shots inpacted heavily on the shields.
"Report?"
"33% left sir..."

In space there was yet another series of flashes, these just above the planets atmosphere. "This is reinforcement group Alphae, we are bringing in the Punishers and Devistaers requisitioned by General Li"
"Get planet side ASAP pilot we cxant afford to loosse you in this fight!"
"By your comand" replyed the lead ships pilot, guiding his convoy behind the Templarian battle lines, opening up with thier little armament on the hostiles as they flew overhead.

"BARZLUN!" roared Hitmon int ohis Mike "THEY BRAUGHT IN THE HEAVY GUNS!! OUR TANKS ARE BEING DEPLOYED BEHIND THIER BATTLE LINES EVEN NOW BUT THOSE WALKERS WILL CUT THRUGH US LIKE A BLADE THRUGH AIR!! W E MUST FALL BACK TO A SECONDERY DEFNCIVE POSITION!!"

'Jadin sir, they've brought out some kind of walker-tank. Crap it's looking right at us and I think its charging its cannon. FALL BACK, GET DEEPER INTO THE FORE....' the line cut out and a cannon roar blasted over the camp.

Jadin sank down slightly in his chair trying to think of a way to kill the tank. 'Daehai, take Demo Squad 15 round through the lefthand forest and wait there with Sniper Team Zeta 3.4. Zeta Team, all of you try and find a weak spot on those bastard walkers!'
'Sir yes sir' came some 20 or so voices. Moments latter another line connected, 'Commander Jadin this is Turret-Cannon Control...'

In space the bomber were turning around for a final run on the Ace of Spades, decoy un-manned fighter-bombers had come in and were masking themselves as bombers to confuse the enemy guns.

The walkers continued their rain of green plasma down upon the Chupakabras, and the troops maintained their gradual bloody advance.

The Ace of Spaces was rocked by explosions as the hull was breached in numerous places.
"Convert the engine. We'll take a few with us."

The power cells of the 3's and 7's, a crystal from the Void, was highly unstable and could be used as a thermonuclear explosive if properly engineered. This is what was done to the Ace of Spade's engine.

The die is cast.

"SIR THE TEMPLARIAN SHIP HAS SELFDESTRUCTED1 NUCLEAR BLAST INCOMING!!"
"SHUT ALL POWER TO THE SHIELDS!!" roared the captain as 12 of the fighter squadrens they had deployed were vaporised.
"Captain this is admaral Cuis'en. The ground troops have been engaged by 3 superheavy walkers, can you have one of your destroyers use its pinpoint at it?"
"Will do sir" was the reply just before the explosion hit.

On the ground a good deal of the Dragona troops had been killed in the first few blasts from the walkers but they stood thier ground whilst the Chupakabra withdrew. Behind the Templarian lines a groupe of Devistater tanks where driftin ominusly over the ridge they had decended down.

As the lead tank began its decent it fired one of its D cannons at the infantry, its other three following in kind. The rest of the tanks followed suit.

As the infantry were mowed down by the Devastator tanks, two of the walkers turned their attention to the tanks. Meanwhile, about half a mile out, 3 Violator (http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z107/Kain1235/Corona.jpg) gunships were blazing their way towards the battle.
"This is BHDS-7, en route. ETA, 10 minutes."

Space, and all the fighter and bombers that where attacking the ACe of Spades were caught up in the wave and destroyed, as where to of the Chupakabras Light Crusiers.

All the Chupakabra forces were trying to pull back into the main camp defences. All but the Sniper Team Zeta and Daehai's Demo Squad who were still trying to find a weak spot in the Imperialis Tanks.

In the centre of the camp, the floor in a 4m by 4m square was moving apart and out of that hole a massive triple gunned cannon was emerging, the top cannon just out of the shield. 'Turret Control, fire at will.'

A wing of Silent hunters moved to attack the incoming gunships, multi-melta gums blazing.

The Tanks switched thier fire to the Imperialis walkers, powering thier sub- magna cannons and unleashed a volly (afectionatly called punishing because the D cannons go into overdrive) at the Walkers as the second wave of reinforcements (cosisting of several attack walkers (http://www.gwiezdne-wojny.pl/grafika/2003/mar/atte_bg.jpg) and about 400 battle droids* (http://talesofwonder.com/images/SDCC2007/clonetroopers.jpg)) began to swarm over the ridge, the rest of the task force continueing on towards the nearest Templarian city.

OOC: *Coulour and its position on the armored exo-skeleton of the battledroids signifys role and rank

The tank's rounds pinged off the thick armor of the Imperials tanks. One leaped down from it's perch, landing in the middle of the fray with a huge smash and a fairly sizable earthquake. A number of smaller guns emerged from hatches in the armor, opening fire on the enemy infantry, while the walker itself fired bolts of green death at the tanks. The other two moved away from the way, heading for the evacuation ships.

The city of Solai Malas, the closet to the fray, had a ring of tank traps, trenches and landmines hastily set up since the tempers of the nations flared. Now, it appeared, all that taxpayer money was going to be finally put to use.

The leading gunship was hit by the fire and downed while the others started evasive maneuvers and opened fire at the aggressors.

The MS-493 Specail Defence cannon spurted balls of highly charge gauss down ito the enemy ranks, leaving crater behind in the impact zones.

'Jadin sir, this is Sniper Squad Zeta 3.2, I think we've found a weak-spot in the walker tanks. On the top of the gits theres some sort of exuast pipe. It look like theres a shield covering it but a person can fit through it, place some plama charges and boom, no more tank.'

'Good. Daehai, take in your squad.'
'Yessir!' Demo Squad 14 took as one spread their wings and took flight towards their target.

A few of the infantry noticed the demo team and opened fire, but the majority were preoccupied with falling back in the shadow of the Imperialis.

The majority of the planets armed forces were now onboard he evacuation ships. The vehicles were attached to Supply Cruisers and generally, everything Templarian was bugging out.

In Space, the fleet had retreated backwards, the Rugber Seech opening a wormhole for the evac fleet.

zooming through the air one Chupakabra was shot, straight through his left wing and was sent plumeting down into the fray below. Daehai and the otehrs landed un-hampered on the tank. Making their way onto the head and facing the shield. Down below them the battle was still raging and they had not be detected. The tanks main gun fired, and the head shook and the Squad was hard placed trying to keep balance, but balence they kept. Coming up to the exuast pipe Daehai peered down into the bowls of the tank, a burst of steam came speeding out and caught his head, he pulled back instatly.
'Lets throw some bangers down there and let it be over with!'
Complying with his command, 5 ZX-2's were hurled down the pipe and the Demo Squad thusly took off.

Inside the tank, alarms blared.
"Liuetenant, unknown in the power core!"
"Get out! Get out now!"
A series of explosions were visible, bursting through the thiner armor on top of the head, as the charges detonated. A piece of shrapnel from the armor pierced Daehai's right wing and leg. Meanwhile, the Imperialis' legs shook and it dropped to the ground, causing another sizable shake. All around, infantry ran for their lives. The power core of the Light Walkers was a nuclear reactor, and when detonated, produced about 900 zettajoules of force.
This would be a real big bang.

Daehai cried out as he crashed into the ground, landing just outside the crater created when the walker tanks fell. He attempted to shimmy himself futher away. Looking up he saw one of the Demo Squad flying down to his aid. A blast of green energy flew up and struck him straight through the chest, his wings folded in close to his body no longer catching the air, his lifless body crumpeled down into the ground.

Turning around and seeing 6 Templarians Daehai whiped out his side arm and fired out 3 rounds before too being shot through the chest by 3 plasma round simutanusly.

'Sir, Daehai's Squad has taken out the tank with the loss of his own life and 2 other troops. We are also picking up a massive energy build up inside the tank, about 900 zettajoules worth. Our shield cant take that. The Templarians are pulling out but we need to get the men either into ships or the storage tunnels ASAP.'
'Afirmitive, give the order and inform the Dragona troops.'
'Wilco'

All over the camp and the battlefield Chupakabras where pulling deeper into the camp and down into tunnels usually used for storage fro cover.

There was a tremendus raor as one of the Tet class cruisers rushed out of the sky, fires burning wildly across its hull, and smashed into the space before the walker and the ase shield. Seeing the obvios fact that the walker was about to explodes the second wave of reinforcements ran back over the ridge as fast as posable, the tanks hung back on the top of the ridge and continued to rain death into the surviving Templarians. "General they apear to be evacuating personel, posably trying to leave the planet.

"Punisher groupe beta this is General Li, alter course to position 5-2-3 and open up on those templarian evac forces"
"Yes sir" came the reply as 2 Punisher drednaught tanks fell out of formation and began to head to the specified co-ordinates.

"HALT" yelled the commander of the attack force, almost instantly the entire force stoped. "Recon report"
"Plenty of anti-tank defences and trenches. Shouldnt be much of a problem but we suspect there may me mine fields aswell."
"Than you recon, begin to pick off thier defences teams "
"Yes sir"
"Punisher baterys, OPEN FIRE!!"yelled the captain once more and the punishers began to carpet bomb the area with thier mighty guns.

There was a whir as the power generator continued on, then a silence as it stopped. Then, the world turned red as the walker exploded, sending out 900 zettajoules of force and nuclear radiation.

Most of the punisher's rounds were blocked by the skyscraper buildings, but a few got through and impacted on the troops piling into the evacuation ships.

The blast from the expolding tank sent out the sound of deafness into the air, followed by the heat and rage of millions of fires. All the Chupakabras where down in the tunnels, while the ship, the shield and the ground itself blocked alot of the power and radiation, some still got through and the tunnels became full of screams of the injured and those effected by radiation, their skin being horribley mutated.

The troops that had not managed to get across the ridge intime where instantly vaporised, as was the crashed ship and its crew. The troops behind the ridge rapidly sucumed to the masive wave of radiation, whilst this did not affect the droids particulaly thier optics where burnt out by the radiation.

At the city the troops barely even felt the shockwave, yet alone suffered the effects of the explosion and were now punding the defences with thier full fire power.

Finally, all the troops were loaded. The Support Cruisers took off, dropping Plasma Bombs as they fell. Also, a small UAV shot out of the lead ship. The small UAV carried an Infector bomb, and it plunged down towards the ground.

The 3's and 7's were all but destroyed, only the Rugber Seeche and Ace of Spades remaining. The Evac fleet exited through the warp gate and the two ships warped away.
