The Vice Admiral winced, and the final bombs from the TIE Bombers ended the shipyard's pitiful existence. That left the fleets to deal with now, which would not be an issue. Of course the hundreds of torpedos racing toward them could have been dangerous...could have been. Turbo lasers shot down most of the oncoming, but the select few managed to hit the engines, slowly shutting down the shields there, but with a quick reallocation of shield power, it was back at full strength.

Yelkaden grinned again, it was almost over.

"Ok men, it's almost over, they're out of missiles, fire the super laser, turn an about face, and let's get to it-" before he could finish his sentence however, the entire bridge was rocked by a massive explosion, then another, and then another, sending him nearly off his feet. "Ok, change of plans, hit their command ship...FIRE!"




The Missile Boats took one more pass on the two cruisers they'd been chipping away at, the first one...exploded, to be put simply. Nu Squadron was expecting to see the Psi from the group...but they did not. Instead there were far too many fighters to count...seven squadrons? Eight squadrons? They were TIE Interceptors, Gunboats, TIE Fighters, TIE Bombers, nearly every kind of craft the Rogue Empire could throw at them.

Then one more surprise came to the pilots, that did not entangle the death of the shipyard. It was the shot of the mighty super laser...the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Death's Hand's<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> weapon hit the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Menace<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->-Class Star Destroyer...it was destroyed. The hundreds of fighters were now in range of the enemy fleet, laser blasts tearing through ships and taking down two of the skiprays before they could even react. All this and the entire fleet turning, nearly facing (except the Dreadnaughts that <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> were<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> facing) the 3rd Fleet...they were going to cut right through.

The Kessel Attack Fleet attacked the Destruction and Devastation. It was outnumbered greatly. 160 concussion missiles launched the two victory star destroyers plowed into it. The ion cannons from the Shadow Star and Liberty Star hit it's shields. The fighters roared arounf shooting missiles from their squadron's commander's telementry at the Devastation. The Liberty, carrack cruiser and corellian gunship moved against the Devastation. The victory star destroyers moved in against the Destruction. It's shields were going down fast. The shields of the Devastation were falling rapidly as well. The lancers and escort carrier stayed out of the battle.

Blackon was doing impressively. Vonta looked at the empirial craft they were turning their weapons to bear on the heaviest of the TNA ships. They were now in fireing range of each other. The forth fleet had hurt the ESD's rear shields and taken out many of the ships engines from their sustained missle, turbo laser and ion fire from the rear.

8 ships made up the forth fleet. And they were engageing the support ships as the fleet turned its attention to the suppot fleet. 6 Hapan Battle dragons, 4 Carrack cruisers, and one moncal MC 90 were engaged in drawing the attention of one or more of the TRE support ships. The MSD, DSDs were concentratiing fire on the now damaged ESD. There were 8 squads of scimters assisting the attack on the ESD.


Bombers were returning from a strifing run being chased down by 10 squads of 2 meter battle droid swarm fighters. All just as fast and manuverable as X-wings they easiely over take and decimate the slower fighters.

::Time to finish this:: Vonta thought.

9 of the TNA ships appeared to be gunships. The Nine ships were inreality droid ram ships. They had missle port holes painted onto them and enough fire power to make them seem like Gun ships. There were no people on board just droids. Vonta gave the word and 5 of those ships head strait into the melee of ships. She sends them on a heading that makes it appear as if they were goning to help the forth fleet. But this is only to set them selves up to get a clear shot at the ESD. The Ships are allmost all bulk heads. Enough metal to cuase a multi megaton explosion that word incinerate all but the largest ships.

-Two put them selves directly infront of the superlaser that must be chargeing to fire. The two ships engage there thrusters to full burn. Pushing the craft to speeds that make it imposible to manuver or to even slow down.

-Two more of the ships engage to head strait for a DRD and a VSD Engaged with the Legacy class cruisers.

-The last one heads strait for the engines of the ESD to finish them off.

The ships shot at with heavy fire but that does barely slow them down. They are so reinforced with Durasteel that they could take a huge salvo of torps and turbo laser fire and be reduced to a hulk of metal and still maintain the momentum from their main burn to hit their targets.

OOC:You may now react to this latest attack fearson. THey are on course now.

The Droid fighters and the Schimters were wading into the enemy fleet. 4 of the Scimter squads made a run on a MC 200 letting 4 missles of there pay load of 16 loose on it 48 torps hit the ship in the relitively same area. The first knock out shields in that area the second third and forth pounded it's bear hull.

The squads lost 24 fighters in this type of run on 3 of the MC200s. But the damage to the ships may make the difference in this fight.

The 1 squad of B-wings were Assiting the Gunboats in the pursuit of the boogy fighters. The be wings were the faster craft. Taking out a second member of that attack wing. 2 B-wings went up from enemy fire. But the the rest continue after the remaining boogy. The rest of the Gunboats were assisting the Forth fleet.

18 squads of swarm fighters flew among the enemy ships. harrassing the sheilds of TRE capitol ships engaged in a fire fight with TNA capitol ships. 5 squads were shot down but and or crashed into enemy ships. But they were making the differnce.

TNA-loses

5 squads droid fighters
2 B-wings

Weakening shields on TRE all ships from swarm fighter harrass ment combined with Capitol ship combat.

Bomber loses to Swarm fighter attack.

They were taking hits left and right from the Fourth Fleet, leaving the Third well out of their range, having them eat their dust. The <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Death's Hand's<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> turbo lasers soared left and right, and finally the second Torpedo Ship was destroyed, thanks to combined laser fire from the two Star Destroyers and the mighty Eclipse.

"Sir, we are taking heavy damage to the starboard, shields at 75%!" that blonde haired helmsman reported as the ship shook again, and again from the massive turbo laser shots, but the strike force was fighting their way through.

"Don't give up!" Yelkaden screamed, his face beat red with worry. He was outnumbered greatly, but the enemy ships had made fatal errors against the Rogue Imperial ships...they were boxing themselves in. With the Strike Force in between the Fourth Fleet's ships, and the Third Fleet trying to box them in from the rear, the Mon Cal's were coming in at the star board...but were now being forced into evasive action 'lest ram themselves into the Alliance ships. All the enemies were jumbled together, it was like the time Fearsons had to force his Star Destroyer into evasive action while chasing the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Millenium Falcon<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->...it worked beautifully.

The wincing continued as the shields began deterierating rapidly, down to 50%...unfortunately, one of the Dreadnaughts could not say the same thing.




The Missile Boats were taking hell for a beating, and were trying desperately to keep themselves alive, having lost all but two of the courageous fighters. Switching to rockets, they had flared several of them at the enemy craft all around them and had now cleared a way for the capital ships of the Rogue Empire. But all forces were so caught up in the battle...they did not realize how close to the Maw they were getting, and already the intense gravity pressure was trying to be fought back by the inertial compensator of the Rogue Imperial bomber.

"Crap crap crap!! Nu 2 you still with me Jas?!" Nu 1 screamed, pulling his ship to level, trying hard to fight off the black holes.

"Yea boss I'm here...arg! We've...gotta' get back...to the ship!" Marduun looked over to his friend's desperate, pleading expression, he was trying to keep his ship steady but it wasn't working.

"We'll make it Jas don't worry!" he said, watching and wanting desperately to help. Of course, he was more assuring himself than his friend...who was not buying it for one second.

"Come...ON!" Nu 2 yelled...but it didn't work, his engine blew out as he tried to hit the slams in unison with a turbo laser blast, he lost it and was being sucked into the black hole.

"JAS!!!!! NO!" Marduun yelled, seeing his wingman being sucked in to the outer space's hungry black hole. "Fight it man, FIGHT IT!" A loud painful scream was all that was heard...and he disappeared. "NOOOO!" Marduun screamed in pain...pain of loss, pain of betrayal, and pain of desire. His hands slammed against his controls, and he spun the whole craft to face the oncoming Alliance forces.

"The super laser is charged Nu 1, get ready for reprisal," the tech officer aboard the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Death's Hammer<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> reported. Most of the fighters had been recalled, and Nu 1 was no exception...but he was not going to go back. He was going to fight to the end, until he had no choice. He could see the many Alliance and Mon Cal ships too trying to fight the intense gravitational pull of the black hole. Tears soiled his eyes, his brother was dead.

ooc:we didn't break the treaty. you attacked Kessel=our planet. i don't think that means that we let you go blow it up cause TNA has one shipyard at it and cause we have a treaty with you. you attacked us and we defended. If Teebo has anycomplaints then he can tell me. If i wasn't supposed to do anything then i will edit my post.

"Order the ships to retreat to our shipyard and over the construction yard. The fighters split in half and go protect the consturction yard in atmosphere. Protect them at all cost." said Lord Snowkan.
"Yes sir."
The Kessel Attack fleet moved towards the shipyard and under construction construction yard. The would protect them at all costs.
"Open a channel to Nal Hutta and Emperor Teebo."
"Done sir." said the communications officer.
"Tell him what is happening and tell him anything that happens. I want all visual feeds relaid to me and to him."
"Yes sir."
Emperor Teebo would know what was happening and what to do.

OOC: I gave you a chance to avoid the dammage Chadd.

The Ramships made contact. The ESD went up in flames as the droid ships impact the ship vaporizing it. The 3 MC200s went up in a equally large explosion. The Strike forces bombers were out of commision. Another and VSD dreadnaught went up in smoke as the Ramships made contact. And released their kinetic engergy. The other VSD lost shields at that moment.

The Alliance forces were not spared yet though the MC 90 was a drift and three battle dragons were destroyed by the explosion of the ESD.

The last fighter, other than Nu 1, was back in the hangar bay, and thus the super laser was charged. It was turned to its starboard, trying to flee the black holes and jump into hyperspace...there was one thing in its way.

Yeladek narrowed his eyes and clenched his hands tightly over the metal railing, turning his knuckles white from lack of blood. His eyes were tired, his gums bleeding from clenching his teeth so ferociously hard.

"Fire the super laser!" he yelled, seeing the key to his plan there. Already one of the Alliance ships was sucked into the Maw (that's up for Logan to choose which) and there were at least two others that were getting too close. The <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Death's Hand<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> was not about to be one of those unfortunate ships. The super laser fired, though it was a tad bit off, it hit the Interdictor directly in its engines, sending bursts of explosions on a chain reaction around the ship...and eventually destroying it.

"Jump Jump Jump!" Yeladek yelled, and those in the hyperdrive control wasted no time in complying, the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Death's Hammer<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->, trying with all its desperation, tried...but the engines prevented it from doing so. It could still move at a decent speed, but the hyperdrive was out.


OOC

Alliance losses:

1 Interdictor
1 ship to the maw (you choose)

Now I would like to see some nice RPing of you guys getting out of the Maw.

OOC: You can't jump.The ESDs engines and hyperdrive were destroyed.Staff?

Make sure you tally your own losses, Chadd. They're inexistence will be affirmed in your coming assaults.

Your ESD is going no where; their point is entirely legitimate.

But, to TNA, note that the ESD is not destroyed in any sense. You luckily managed to inter a few thrusters, yet the bulk is still online.
