"I think i am fine here. I am recalling my corellian gunships to come and help out. The second carraack cruise should be down and out in about 30 seconds."
Just as Darth Bill said this the fighters launched another volley of missiles at the carrack cruiser making it explod brilliantly. The corellian gunships came and started to help out the Accuser of the top of the enemy star destroyer.
"Put all of our shields power on top side shields."
"Yes sir."
The enemy star destroyer's shields came down another ten percent.
------------------------------------------------------------
"Sir we lost the carrack cruiser and dreadnaught."
"How?"
"The ESD fired it's superlaser at the dreadnaught. the fighters took out the carrack cruiser."
"How long untill the reinforcements come out of hyperpsace?"
"Two minutes sir."
"Then we will be able to fight our way out of this and retreat to another planet."
"Sir, did you say retreat?"
"Yes retreat you fool. With that ESD here we don't stand a chance. But with Taskforces, Alpha and Beta we will blow up the Reckonning and Accuser. We might even be able to hold of that ESD."
"Sir the fighters have commenced missile runs on us. Two corellian gunships also have come and started to fire on us."
"Darn, more annoying pests. Guns, blow them to atoms. Concentrate fire on the Accuser for all guns that can't target the Reckonning."
"Yes sir. What about the fighters?"
"Taskforce Alpha has two of those Lancer frigates and Taskforce Beta has three. We will be able to blow up all the fighters. We might even be able to capture an Iron Fist lackie and collect the bounty."
"Yes sir."
The imperial startdestroyer contuined to fire on the Reckonning, bringing it's shields down to eighty six. unfortunatly the Accuser sent it's missile telementry to all of the fighters and the corellian gunships. The target was the middle of the bow. One hundred and sixty four missiles plowed into the top side shields taking them down. The captain of the star destroyer braced himself as the ships rocked and alarms went off.
"Sir we jsut lost top side shields."
"What about bottom side shields?"
"Sixty percent and falling sir."
"Full speed and get us out of here. Bring the shield power on the bottom down to thirty percent and put the other thirty percent on the top side."
"Yes sir. Engine report no damage. Commencing retreat."
"Signal the president and tell him what happenned."
"Yes sir."
"Navigator."
"Yes captain?"
"Plot us a course to Rodia and Taskforce Bantha. Signal them that we are incoming."
"Yes sir."
"Comunications."
"Yes sir?"
"Send a message to Taskforce Alpha and Beta. Tell them to join us at Rodia."
"Yes si-."
"Sir taskforce Beta has jsut arrived out of hyperspace."
"Order them to turn around and wait for us for the jump to hyperspace. What abotu Taskforce Alph-"
"Sir taskforce Alpha has just come out of hyperspace as well."
"Thank you. Siganl them both and tell them the complications."
"Yes sir."
------------------------------------------------------------
"Sir the imperial star destroyer is shifting shield power to the top side generators. the shields are now at thirty percent. The star destroyer is also coming to full speed. If we don't excelerate as well we will be left behind."
"Excelerate to full speed. Tell the Accuser and corellian gunships to do the same."
"What about he fighters?"
"The fighters will follow the star destroyer anyway."
"Yes sir. I guess you are right. The Accuser is coing to full attack speed. It is a bit slower then the imperial star destroyer and will end up being left behind."
"Tell the to go as fats as the can, and fire all guns able to into those engines. Send the telementry to the fighters and corellian gunships. Order the corellian gunshisp and fighters to come beside the Accuser to prepare for the attack."
"Yes sir."
The Accuser started to fall behind the imperial star destroyer and it tried to get a lock on the destroyer's engines.
"Sir we have three carrack cruisers, tw-five lancer frigates, a victory MK.II star destroyer, a dreadnaught, another carrack cruiser and some fighters coming out of hyperspace. Theys eem to be waiting for the imeprila star destroyer."
"Follow the stard estroyer and try to take it out."
The Acuuser finally got a target lock on the star destroyer's engines.
"We have e a lock and are transmitting telementry now. Fire as soon as you get it."
One hundred and thirty missiles rammed into the shields at the engines and took them down. Thirty four missiles that were fired late rammed into the engines and the imeprial stard estroyer slowed down. The Accuser, fighters and corelliangunships fire again. A blinding flash came and the imeprial star destroyer engines and command tower disappeared from view. The missiles had made the reactor and engines explode, taking out the whoel back end ogf the star destroyer.
------------------------------------------------------------
Onboard the Victory MK.II star destroyer, a blinding flash appeared for a second at the back end of the imperila star destroyer.
"What was that?"
"Sir the engines and reactor on the destroyer went critical and the whole back part was disinegrated."
"What about dammage to the enemy ships."
"The Reckonning has suffered no damage except for it's shields are at one percent strenght. The other ships are undamaged."
"Make the jump to lightspeed."
"Yes sir."
The two Taskforces jumped into hyperspace.
------------------------------------------------------------
"Sir the enemy ships made the jump to hyperspace."
"Ok let them go."
"Sir our shields are at one percent power."
"Charge the shields now."
"Yes sir."
Darth Bill reahced over for the intercom system.
"Iron Fist Empire crews, you have done a wonderful job here today and I am porud of you. We have no more enemiies on sensors.

Loag smiled slightly when he saw that there were no enemy ships in the system anymore.He had never wanted to destroy any defending ships.All he wanted to do was help the people,to supply then after Lord Darth Vader had done what he did.That is why he had brought hundred of thousands of supplys.Medical equipment,food,water,and power generators.
He ordered the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Archammer<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> to set course for the planet.Once they got into a stable orbit Logan contacted the Fallen government and requested a meeting with the leader.With much reluctance the government agreed to set up a meeting.They had a strict policy of absolutely no foregn powers were to be allowed on the surface.And that included Logan.

<!--EZCODE CENTER START--><!--EZCODE CENTER END-->


After Darth Bill came back into the system the negotiations began.The Falleen leader took a small shuttle to the great ship to go to the meeting.Once out of the atmosphere four New Alliance X-Wing fighters flanked it and acted as an honor guard.The shuttle did not deviate from it's course and allowed the honor guard to fly with it.Logan and Darth Bill stood side by side in the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Archammer<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->'s hangar bay and waited for the shuttle to land.After it had landed,it lowered a ramp and the Fallen leader and several guards and another Falleen came down the ramp.Logan stepped forward to greet them.

"Welcome to the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Archammer<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->.I am Regent Logan of the New Alliance and this is Darth Bill of the Iron Fist Empire."

"I am President Ommin of the Fallen government,and this is my aide,Feemor"

"If you would follow me and my counterpart We will take you to the conference room where refresments await us"


<!--EZCODE CENTER START--><!--EZCODE CENTER END-->


After several hours of negotiations the Falleen leader Ommin accepted New Alliance and Iron Fist control in exchange for supplies in food,water,minerals,glitterstim spice, medical supplies,power generators,and other things.Logan was too happy to provide and agreed to all of the things.And glitterstim spice was somthing that he had in great supply.He decided to wait on the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Archammer<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> and stay at Falleen and wait for further develpoments.He went into his private command room and sat at his desk.Soon the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Archammer<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->'s captain,Adalin,came into the room.He walked in and stood quietly near the doorway.He thought he heard a sound to his left but when he looked there was nothing there.

"Mahk,I am not here to play games.I am just bringing a repair report to the Regent."

The Noghri drooped down behind Adalin.

"I am not here to play games as well Captain.I a just doing my job to protect the Regent."

Upon hearing the Noghri's voice Adalin whirled around and glared at him.Just as Adalin was going to retort he heard the Regent's voice.

"Come in Captain"

Adalin gave Mahk one last glare and spun on his heel to give the Regent a repair progress report.He stood stiffly at Logan's side untill the Regent was done reading the repair report.Logan looke up and stared at Adalin for a moment.

"You can exhale now,Captain"

Adalin let out a long breath and looked sheepishly at the Regent.

"Thank you sir.I wanted to ask you,what is our next target"?

"Rodia"

"With all due respect sir Rodia is a planet full of bounty hunters and gambling establishments."

"Yes I know.But Bill,and I have our reasons for selecting it"

"I see sir.Thank you"

Adalin spun around and left the Command Room.

Darth Bill was very glad once the negotiations were down. He had never really enjoyed dilpomatic meetings, he left that to his diplomatic experts, Bobfrea, who unfortunatly wasn't here at the moment. Suddenly his com link beeped.
"Darth Bill here."
"Sir we have an imperial star destroyer, a Victory MK.I star destroyer, a Victory MK.II Star Destroyer, four carrack cruisers, some fighters, six lancer frigates and a dreadnaught on our long range scanners."
"What are they doing?"
"They are slowy advancing."
"Thank you for the report. Prepare the guns."
"Yes sir."
"Regent Logan we have some ships on our long range scanners. You might want to prepare your guns. I wiil be heading for the Reckonning now. If you can take care of four carrack cruisers, an imperial star destroyer, six lancer frigates and a dreadnaught we can deal with the two victory star destroyers."
Darth Bill flew over to the Reckonning and prepared his shisp for the fight.
"Give me the President's com number."
"Yes sir."
Darth Bill typed in the com number.
"President Ommin, this is Darth Bill, are the newly arrived ships in system yours?"
"Yes they are Darth Bill."
"Are they here as friends or foes?"
"I am not sure. Our main military commander was killed by you and i haven't been able to contact the ships. i am trying though."
"Thank you, please tell me if you find anything out."
"Darth Bill they are here as foes, by the orders of the old military commander. I am informing them of the treaty and am waiting for a response."
"Thank you."
"They are going to leave the system. Note this Darth Bill, they are not pleased with the treaty and they might mount an attack against you."
"Thank you for the warning. Do you now where they are heading?"
"Yes, they are heading for Rodia."
"Interesting. I am not going to chase after them just because they are mad at us. But i will probably have to fight them as we are goign to try and bring justice, and other things, to Rodia."
"Ok."
The two leaders signed off and Darth Bill called to Regent Logan.
"The enemy ships are gong to leave the system to head for Rodia. They are unsatisfied by the treaty and may mount an attack against us later on. I am going to keep a strong defense here, but i will not be able to hold them offfor a long time. I will be getting some more ships soon though. I suggest you leave a minor fleet here to help guard the planet. I will be leaving Reckonning, my two skipray blastboats and one of the corellian gunships."
Darth Bill watched as the ships suddenly turned around and started an attack run on the ESD.
"Send some troops down to the planet in plains clothes. The President has annouced world wide the treaty and i want them to find out what the feelings of the citizens are. Fire on the Victory MK.II. Tell Accuser and the corellian gunships to get the MK.I. The fighters go after the carrack cruisers."
"Yes sir."
The troops went down to the planet to check out the feelings of the population as the capital ships excelerated.
------------------------------------------------------------
"So how do you feel about the new treaty with the Iron Fist Empire?"
"Oh i think that it is a very good thing. We get all kinds of things that we couldn't get before, and more protection."
"How about you?"
"It is wonderful. My son has a unknown disease to us but now he may get treatment."
"Haven't you tried bacta?"
"I would have but it costs way to much for us to pay. Now if we have more supplies then the price will go down and we will be able to pay for the treatement."
"Well i hope your son gets better soon."
The Iron Fist trooper walked over to talk to other people. When he went into local bars he found that the treaty was all that anybody was talking about. Most of the people liked it, but soem poeple were talking about how hard it would be to smuggle stuff into and out of Falleen now. The trooper ignored this talk as he didn't need to report who the smugglers were. He questioned some more people and found out that ninety eight percent of the small population was in favour of the treaty. This was god news for the Iron Fist Empire as then there wouldn't be lots of riots. The trooper and his men went back up to the Reckonning and told Darth Bill their report.
"Good work men. I will not have to watch the population as closely now. I think I will make the People's Militia if Regent Logan agrees. They will hopefully stop any riots."
"Ok sir. Do you want me and my men to go back down and start the militia?"
"No that is all right. You can have a leave on the planet for two days."
"Thank you sir."
------------------------------------------------------------
The Reckonning turned and went after the victory MK.II. The two ships engaged their guns
"Sir we have identified the ships. They came from Rodia and seem to be tied to some smuggling there and many killings. The name of the victory MK.II is unknown. Also the imperial star destroyer is ignoring us an heading for the Arc Hammer."
"Thank you. They can deal with it. What is the shield status?"
"Ninety nine percent for us, eighty eight for them."
"Good. How about our other ships?"
"The corellian gunships are undamaged and the Accuser is at ninety percent shild power. The victory MK.I is at eighty five percent."
"A close battle i see. What about the other enemy ships?"
"The carrack cruiser the fighters are going after is trying tonwithdraw to the lancer frigates. It's shields are down and engines damaged. The fighters should take it down in another volley."
"Good."
The fighters swarmed around the carrackc rusier trying t get a lock on it's engines.
"I have a lock. Transmitting telementry."
"Receiving. Fire on my mark. Three, two one, MARK."
Seventy six missiles flew at the engines of the carrack cruiser.
"Get away from that crusier."
The fighters blasted away from the carrack cruiser just as the missiles hit. One slow TIE defender was caught in the blast and was destroyed. The carrack cruiser blew up damaging the cruiser next to it's shields. Then fourty fighters roared in on the thirty eight fighters of the Iron Fist Empire.
"Use your missiles and take them down."
The fighters were close together and the missiles had a devastating effect. The fourty fighters were reduced to one crippled fighter. A TIE Defender quickly ion cannoned it and used it's tractor beam to pull it into the main landing bay of Reckonning.
"Sir we have captured a fighter. It is an Uglie. Somthing between an A-wing, with Xwing S-foils and Y-wing engines. Really a new and differewnt design. Kind of good in a fight. Good shields, two proton torpedoe launchers, a turret ion cannon and four laser cannons. Not to meantion the speed it gets. It has the engines on the S-foils still intact, plus the Y-wing engines and a major generator in the back of the A-wing. 200 MGLT and shields a little better then a Y-wing at twelve meters. This one is crippled so i suggest we scrap it and use the idea in other designs."
"I copy. Thanks for capturing it. Maybe we will be able to find out where it was made."
"Your welcome, i am going back into the fight."
The fighter roared of into the fight with the other fighters. It seemed as if the fighters had gonbe after another carraack cruiser. This one was already dammaged from the first volley and Teak, the pilot of the TIE Defender that had captured the Uglie, just flew in and shot a pair of concussion missiles into the bridge. The crew died and the ship was crippled. The fighters then went of and got into dog fights with other fighters. They stayed away from the Lancer Frigates. None of the pilots would tangle with a Lancer Frigate.
------------------------------------------------------------
Onboard the Reckonning.
"For the final time, where are the ships being built."
"Fine if i am allowed to go back to the planet and my family i will tell."
"You will be allowed all of that if you wil just tell us."
"Thay are being manefactured on the first moon of Rodia."
"So that is what the fleet was doing there."
"Yes sir."
"You will be sent down to the planet soon."
"Thank you."
"Go to the landing bay and you will be sent down."
The pilot left for the mainladning bay of Reckonning. Darth Bill quickly typed in the President's com number.
"Mister President, I have found out what the fleet was doing at Rodia."
"What?"
"Thay were manefacturing some very impersive fighters."
"Really. I knew they were doing something there but i wasn't sure what."

Upon hearing the messese from Bill,Logan nodded.

"I totally agree.I am leaving two <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Victory<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->-class Star Destroyers here.I am prepared to go to Rodia whenever ready." Logan signed off and sat back in his command chair."

He frowned as the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Archammer<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->'s sensors began pouringin telemetry to his screen.The new flotilla of Falleen ex-defense ships would be quite a problem.The <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Archammer<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> superlaser was charging but if those ships attacked now it wouldn't be ready and could not fire.Logan quickly ordered all weapons to charge and fire upon his order.He was presented with a not-so-pleasant surprise whenthe Falleen <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Imperial<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->-class Star Destroyer broke away and decided to attack the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Archammer<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->.But instead of opening fire with conventional weaponry it jetesoned hundreds of escape pods and accelerated,heading for the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Eclipse<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->-class Super Star Destroyer...intent on ramming it.Logan ordered all weapons to fire at the oncoming battering ram that was determined to destroy the Alliance ship.Turbolasers streaked toward and hit the Star Destroyer,slowing down slightly.It was 100 kilometers away and still accelerating.Ion cannons and proton torpedos slammed into it,devestating the hull of the near-mindless Star Destroyer.Just before it hit the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Archammer<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> it exploded,sending debris crashing into the side.

Logan let out a sigh of relief and slumped in his chair.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> One down<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->.........

Darth Bill watched the battle. The Arc Hammer had taken down the imeprial star destroyer. The Victory MK.II had it's shields at two percent and the last bit was fallign quite quickly. The Victory MK.I was at ten percent. The a volley of missiles came at it and teh shields went down to one percent. Another volley and the bridge was blown off. The Victory MK.II lost shileds power and a fighter came up and shot a pair of missiles into the bridge.
"Tell the Acuuser to go after the lancer frigates. We get the dreadnaught."
"What about the other two carrack cruisers?"
"Tell the fighters to go after one, we will take the other. Tell the corellian gunships to form up with us and go after the carrakc cruiser."
"Yes sir."
The Reckonningand the gunships moved towards the dreadnaught and carrack curisers. It open fire on the dreadnaiught just as the fighters made a run on the second cruiser, the one closer to the lancer frigates. In some ways it made sense, take out the one close the enemies you don't want to face and then take out the other one. It also didn't make sense. The cruiser could pull back into range of the lancer frigates. The fighters launched their missiles and the bow shields came down. The cruiser started to turn to runa nd expose it's undamaged shields to the fighters. As it did this it left it's unprotected side to the Accuser that was just coming in after the lancer frigates. The Accuser quickly fired agianstt he unshieldd hull taking it out. Then it went after the frigates. The Accuser was outnumbered, but not outgunned. The frigates were good against starfighters with their twenty quad laser cannons. Unfortunatly they had no guns to deal with capital ships. The Accuser fired a volley of twenty concussion missiles into the first, twenty inot the second, twenty into the third and twenty into the fourth. then it opend up with it's turbolasers against the other two. The four volleys twenty concussion missiles aimed at the first four lancer cruisers took down their shields as the explodded. Another volley of ten on each made them into space junk. the turbolasers and concussion missiles made short work of the remaining lancer frigates. The Accuser truned to go after the remaining carrack cruiser, but the fighters and corelliangunships had taken it out. the dreandaught had lost all shields power and was just about to be finished of, when it surrendered. Darth Bill told them to shut down and allow a crew come on to replace them. With the new crew in place and another crew training the Falleens the dreadnaught woudl soon be operationable. The troop[s were training local police officers to be better at their job, and they made the People's Militia. Falleen was getting more supplies every day and hte peoplke were happy. A lot of smugglers had been caught. Reckonning and the corellian gunships stayed in system to protect Fallen. Accuser, the fighters and Darth Biull headed back to Teth. Darth Bill's new flagship was ready. A new Corruption Star Destroyer. Hammer Head was going to be the main defense for Teth. Before the ships left Darth Bill sent a message to Regent Logan.
"We are going back to Teth. Reckonning and the corellian gunships are staying here, defending the planet and trainning the citizens who want to join us."

A small contengent of the Fleet scanned the local system making sure that there were no more pockets of hostile forces left.
