Distributing the Wealth (Wayland)

OOC: Deal with it, Chadd. Quickly, I suggest.

Gash sighed, glancing behind him at the tactical display. The Abolishers had arranged themselves about the outer portions of the system, with fields laid and at the ready. "Communications officer, order the Abolishers to jamm and scramble all outbound communications on all frequencies."

'Yes, sir.'

Out the transparisteel viewport, it became apparent that some--if not all--of the Sugarcult's crew had taken Gash's warning seriously. Several escape pods and Lambda shuttles had jetisoned from the ship, even as it continued to drift listlessly in space. Gash contemplated for a moment, before proceeding to his command chair and holding down a small, red button. He spoke. "General Shien, ready a heavily armed force to board that Eclipse Star Destroyer."

The shuttle blazed through the area where once the massive Eclipse Star Destroyer's shields had been, rocketting onwards through the magnetic containment field of the vessel's primary docking bay. It's engines whined loudly, scattering the panicked crew about the durasteel hanger, as it cut it's repulsorlifts gradually, setting down with a metallic clang.

From it's hold and the holds of the three others which had entered this hanger, rushed a variety of New Republic troops. Scattered amongst the many JirenTech Panther Battledroids were a few Wookiees and humans, all bearing large blaster weapons, arraying themselves in a defensive posture around the Sentinel-Class Landing Craft. Commander Viel, a Chiss, fired a few warning shots at the ceiling, scattering the Naboo Sith Order personel still in the hanger. From the shuttle behind him stepped General Shien, flanked by two Chiss attendants. The General first double clicked his comm, to verify to Admiral Jiren that he'd arrived, and second, tapped into the Sugarcult's public broadcast system.


"Attention, attention, this is General Shien of the New Republic. The Sugarcult has surrendered, and has been boarded in multiple locations. It is suggested to Naboo Sith Order personel that you flee the vessel. Do not fire upon New Republic soldiers or droids. We will be taking command of the Sugarcult. Officers, surrender to New Republic troops, and you will be set free. We will await formal relinquishing of the Sugarcult to us, as per High Admiral Gash Jiren's terms of your surrender."

The troops jogged from the hanger on Shien's command, rushing out to secure the premesis.

Specific orders had been given to the commander of the Eclipse-Class Super Star Destroyer Sugarcult:

DO NOT LET IT FALL INTO ENEMY HANDS!


Lord Poreon had demanded this personally, seeing the desperation of the New Republic to distribute such awesome craft to their allies; the Sugarcult would be ap erfect gift thereover. However, by any means necessary, it would not be allowed to fall into enemy hands. The Jedi Jiren would have to find another way.

"With all do respect from the Naboo Sith Order," the commander said through gritted teeth, "I'll see you in hell."

Already the vector had been set to the Abolisher Cruisers, but it was obvious they were not going to make it. The soldiers on board were slowly making their way for the bridge. The time was now. He broke open the glass around the shiney red button, and than smashed that down as well.

It started with a short rumbling, then transformed into several explsions, then an enormous shockwave. The shockwave shot out and began blowing damage to all ships, Republic and Sith alike. When it was over, the Abolishers had suffered the brunt of the attack, whiel the Sith were moving into mad withdrawl. They wanted - and needed - to escape.

Uh... no, Chadd.

I give you five days, and you give me that @#%$?

You don't just get to "blow up" your ESD. I've been over this with other factions myself.

OOC

Care to explain why? Every single thing the emperor ever had had a self destruct on it. Everything. What's to stop TNSO from having a self-destruct on its own super weapon?

No where does it say that the ESD has a self-destruct sequence. You don't get to just write one in. I attempted to do precisely the same thing (with a shipyard) to TNO... and was summarily shot down.

What a retarded bunch of bullshit.

I just don't have the patience to deal with this. You can blow the damn thing up, fine. You're way to thick headed to be convinced otherwise, and it's honestly not worth the effort. But it doesn't do damage to anything else.

You'd think, after I so kindly decided not to press this rather-humiliating defeat even further, you'd have just a little more respect than to do something so @#%$ shitty without any kind of actual explanation.

Look forward to my post. If you can manage to set off an Eclipse Star Destroyer in one post with literally no explanation, imagine what I can do with a fully operational fleet...
