ooc: this system has 2 factory planets, a residential, and a starbase planet.

Outer System of Torturous Chamber

General Pravia stepped into his Fortior-class transport which he and his armored division would be traveling in. Their mission, which came from Royale command, was to eliminate a small nation with a small army and navy and everything essentially.

"General, what's the plan when we get there?"

"I don't have much info, Colonel, so hold on. Command will tell us when we're there."

ooc: VT and Ih8uwannakillu, PM me to give plans to troops.

ooc: You have some of mine, but I'll continue to do so.

IC: A lone Leviathen capital ship hunter (http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41NPCGETW1L._SL500_AA280_.jpg) drifted thurgh the system, its form undulating as it came up along side the transport, playfully nudging it with a claw before bashfully flying away again.

Inside the ship, the captain rolled his eyes and punched the console next to him, causing the ship to give a hysterical giggle before seeing, through the eyes of the resident phi-breed, that the captain was indeed a little anoyed and mumbling an apology.
"Lathos, do that again and you'll find a stun batton in one of your power ports!" the captain said grufly, rollng his eyes as a tacco apeared on the screen at the front of the bridge.
"I said sorry" Lathos whined "Look I made you a tacco!" the replicater on the arm of the captains chair flashed for a second and a tacco did indeed appear there.
"Ummm, thank you?" the captain said, thrown off guard by the strange gesture. "Aaaanyway, open a channel to the transport"
"Open"
"'Ello chums" the Human captain said in a prim acent, similar to that of the steriotypical British acent "Awfully sorry about that bump old bean, those responsable have been reprimandeed most sternly." He grinned toothily, showing a lot of gleaming white teeth.

"Captain we have an incoming message from an Ih8uwannkillu vessel."

"Open frequencies, Lieutenant."

Ello chums. Awfully sorry about that bump old bean, those responsable have been reprimandeed most sternly.

"That's nice. This is Captain Predar of the TCS Melior. Is there anything you need, and are you part of our escort?"

A thin green slit was suddenly cut in empty space, slowly widening into a large circle, the surface shimmering and swelling like water. After a minute, the bow of a Sabbath MK II Dreadnought (http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z107/Kain1235/SabbathMK2.jpg) cut ts way through, the substance that make up the jump gate uneffected by the behemoth vessels passing. Once the ship was fully arrived, the gate swirled, grew smaller and disappeared. A hail was sent out.
"TCS forces, this is the VTN Dominatus. We're the forerunner for the rest of the fleet. Whats the story here?"

"That's nice. This is Captain Predar of the TCS Melior. Is there anything you need, and are you part of our escort?"
"Part of the escort old heart, well, the part you can see. We have claoked artilery and ships spread about the place. Have a ganda at the sensor data we're sending you, you'll see for your self. I do very much doubt the enimy can hit you while we're here, dont worry about that, what what."
Unbeknownst to the captain a monacle had ow apeared on his face, the tinkering of Lathos.

"Incoming transmition from a new arival sir, a Templarian Sabbath class just droped out of FTL" 2 officers called at the same time. The message was played shortly after and a reply sent back
"Dominatus, this is the Lathos. We're escorting the TCS ships in this system. We're the visual deterant." The message was sent by the ship on its own, the voice (think Gir from invader Zim)was happy and bubly and there was a definate note of pride as the last bit was said.

"Dominatus, this is the Lathos. We're escorting the TCS ships in this system. We're the visual deterant."

Admiral Gavriil rolled his eyes.
Joy. Psi-Breeds.
"Funny. Most of your ships aren't exactly visual right now." The captain smirked. "Might have a better effect if that fleet of yours quit hiding behind smoke and mirrors."

"When they could ambush the hostiles? Nah. And as the admiral said 'every trap needs bait!'... Heyyyy wait!?, We've been had!" the Lathos now seemed to be arguing with either itself or the captain and had aparently forgoten about the open channel as it started to mutter away to itself.

"Such acts of subterfuge and stealth undermine the true meaning of war. Perhaps we should meet face to face and discuss battle plans? I never trust these hails. Too easy to intercept."

"Certainly, just look out the window" Sure enough the Lathos was now hovering right infront of the bridge, its large blue eye looking thrugh the nearest window.

The 300 Chamberlain ships uncloaked.

"Part of the escort old heart, well, the part you can see. We have claoked artilery and ships spread about the place. Have a ganda at the sensor data we're sending you, you'll see for your self. I do very much doubt the enimy can hit you while we're here, dont worry about that, what what."

"Ok that's good." The captain then saw the dreadnought of the Templarian navy come out, and heard its message.

"TCS forces, this is the VTN Dominatus. We're the forerunner for the rest of the fleet. Whats the story here?"

"We have just met up with our Ih8uwannakilluan escort, and we were waiting for you. I would also like to meet for plan discussion. Shall I link up with your ship? I will bring the Admiral with me if so."

"Certainly, just look out the window" Sure enough the Lathos was now hovering right infront of the bridge, its large blue eye looking thrugh the nearest window.
The captain held his hand to his face.
"Please remember the automated defense turrets on this model. I would hate for anything to happen to your, uh... Lovely ship."

"We have just met up with our Ih8uwannakilluan escort, and we were waiting for you. I would also like to meet for plan discussion. Shall I link up with your ship? I will bring the Admiral with me if so."

"With all due respect, my ship does seem the safest in the sector. Docking bay 1 will be open for your admiral, 3 for the Dragonans. Once you dock, a Marine will take you to the bridge." The admiral nodded, and the feed cut off.

Lathos didn't bother responding again, simply drifted of again slowly, a small crab like object detaching from behind the crest and drifting off to hangerbay 3.

Once inside the hanger the 6 legs on the craft swivled into a landing position and it youched down, the glowing blue lines flowing around it flared once and faded away, leaving 2 Dragona and a Kentas standing beneath it.

OOC: Mew I'm putting up a version of this for my side, put that request in there please :-)

OOC: Okay

Where is it?

A couple of marines (http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z107/Kain1235/Black_Hand_Laser_TW1.jpg) who were checking a bomber's wing looked over, and spoke amongst themselves. After a moment, one walked over to the group, a major.
"He's new." He pointed to the Kentas. "First you start having humans, then these lads. What is he, anyway?" He shrugged. "Anyway, I've been instructed to take you to the Bridge. If you would follow me." The marine started off towards the blastdoors at the other side of the hangar bay.

"Of course" one of the dragona said, supresing a chuckle as the Kentas scowled at the marine.
"You'll get used to it" the other one said sympatheticly, patting him on the shoulder.

Captain Predar and Admiral Brown stepped out of their ship and into the Templarian. Its layout was much different, but they noticed it was very similar to their own ships. They walked to the bridge and met the captain.

"What's the situation, Captain?"

The Dragonan delegates were brought into the room at the same time as the TC reps. The captain turned, saluted the arrivals then dismissed the marines.
"Gentlemen. Welcome to the Dominatus. Shall we dispense with the pleasentries and cut straight to buisness?"

"Indeed!" roared the kentas as the Dragona bowed "Let us discus the destructio nof the terran dogs!, or at least their oresance here..."

"I agree. I know that there are large forces massing on the Battlehawk side, but we cannot do anything. We must strike at someone, and I think it should be the most powerful."

"That would be suicidal. Far better to hold off the strong and hit the weakest first. Our inteligance points to only a small terran presance with the enamy. This is not really a suprise, their ships are few enough, and we know not the strength of the others.

I belive you both recied our initial plan? We feel that we must stick with it, if only to alter it slightly. Rushing up against the walls of a fortress is all well and good." he looked meaningfuly at the templars "But, as we are at a disadvantage we must strike carefuly. The more ships we loose, the better for the enamy.

We suggest Mewsland or Battlehawk. Battlehawk has the weakest econamy but foucuses on defence, while Mewsland is samller but with a far better econamy.

Telros and the terrans are out of the question for now. The terrans are too many, and we know from experiance how powerful those ships can be. As for Telros, they are larger than both Void Templar or the empire, however, their econamy is weaker."

May I suggest that we hit Mewsland first, then sweep into Battlehawk, after that there is no reason for the others to fight.
