Task Force Minotaur eased themselves out of hyperspace in the system of the former pirate base Myrkr. It was long over due for some serious Rogue Imperial policeing. It must have been obvious to the Alliance that the Rogue Empire was up to something, as they had constructed a new space station just outside the Alliance space limits, and thus had begun stocking it with TIE Defenders.

Vice Admiral Stockton was assigned to this mission, being told to clear the way for a major military station, and to eradicate the system of any Alliance forces. The <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Imperial<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->-Class Mark II Star Destroyer <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Mediocre<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> was leading the Minotaur group of one Dreadnaught, one Carrack cruiser, one Strike Cruiser, and two Star Destroyers toward the beautiful planet.

Stockton was a young man from Chandrilla, too young to be an admiral, but due to the lack of good personnel, and his outstanding military abilities, he was quickly given the rank. He was about 5'8" and had short, dark brown hair. He was very able, and had no doubts in any of his men, never losing confidence in them.

"Attention Alliance forces," he started into his intercom, his Coruscant-Imperial accent very strong indeed. "let it be known that this is now Rogue Imperial space, heed down immediately, or suffer the consequences, we will act hostily."

Now it was a waiting game, to see if they'd respond with open arms...or blazing arms.

Onboard his ship Admiral Hawk laughed out loud.He contacted Logan and told him what was going on.Logan gave him his orders.

"The 2nd fleet is at Myrkr.I want you to obliterate those Imperial morons."

"Yes sir!"

Hawk quickly mobilized the 2nd fleet and sent it out to meet the approaching enemy forces.

-= 5 Minutes Later =-

Once in range Hawk sent out a comm messege to the enemy commander.

"Imperial ships,you are intruding on New Alliance space if you do not remove yourselves from this sector immidietly you will be destroyed"

Hawk waited for the response.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Admiral Jump also heard the message. He immeaditly set up his battle fleet in seperate ships all rainging in a circle behind him. The m'ytil Fighters were launched and ready for missiling duty or antifighter. The X-wings were also launched also prepared for missiling duty. They were ready and then they charged. The 2 strike cruisers went after the other strike cruiser. His Armadia Thrustships Gunship and Dinefet cruiser all went after the Carrack Cruiser. 2 of the Hapan Battle dragons went after the Dreadnaught. The rest of the Battle Dragons went after 1 of the Star Destroyer while the 5 defenders went after the other. This left the<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> Mediocre <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> to the Menace.

A lingering sense of excitment was fresh in the air aboard the Blaze of Glory. As a matter of fact, the entire battalion was in a state of perpetual enthusiasm over the latest word from the High Command. The political sect of the High Command, being Moff Cronus, Moff Handler, Darth Exceron, and Chadd Fearsons had developed quite a scheme to end the nuisances of Rebellion, hopefully, once and for all time to come. The military sect of the High Command, being Simon Kaine, Daemon Hyfe, Phalanx Allger, Chau Ming, Falynn Daine, and Lord Zell had conjugated the possibly tactics, strategies, and analyzed statistics that the enemy could deploy against them.

The Imperial Combine, of which the factions had become known, was geared for an all out assault against the Empire's most loathed enemies. The scummy dross of the galaxy would soon be lost in an eternal oblivion of destruction. The factions representing the New Order, the Rouge Empire, and Imperial Syndicate would soon bare the brunt of Imperial resources against their enemies, in a final ensuing attempt at the destruction of the New Alliance.

However, as the New Order and the Rouge Empire would come to harbor the manifest of the New Alliance forces at Despyre, Imperial Syndicate had a different route to plot, with the a different objective. Cronus did indeed hold his responsiblity to claim, and he was damn proud of having the honor
of assaulting the New Alliance systems. Indeed this mission would mark an utterable dooms day on the enemy forces.

His objectives were simplicit, clear as crystal. His own personal gains towards the Syndicate would please Regent Tenloss quite so, and the logistical facilities located on Myrkr and Kessel were sure to undertake a lethal onslaught by trained bombardiers. Even at this very moment, Imperial
Syndicate forces were on a splitting run towards the Kessel system, a vague wanning reminder of death and destruction in their wake.

The targets were mapped in navigation logs, and pre hyperspace procedures initiated.

"Relay, track opposing vessels on interception course! Gunnery, raise defense damnpenning systems and charge all weapons."

Adalric's task force had leapt into a flurry of conflict that had ensued prior his arrival. Relay faxed a direct report to Cronus' Battle Analysis Computer, the miniframe computing device integrated into the Tactical Command Console. Picking up the fax earnestly, he overlooked the data sheet's contents in amusement.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> So it appears that Logan has manipulated his forces to his doing...<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> or so the situation seemed. Yet however, the rebel task force had just vectored into Myrkr realspace, getting the jump on the current matters.

Fearsons task force was nearly planetside, yet Cronus did not seemingly anticipate the Rouge emporer's goals here. No matter, he would accomplish his own, with ot without aid.

"Helm, position the task force in a pre emptive setting for a Marg Sabl closure maneuver. Bring us to sublight speed three point four. Lock in coordinates for the Myrkr's current logistical targets."

As his words were barely flowing through his lips as the entire tsak force shifted their vector from the rebel fleet and began a so, casual decent towards the Myrkr's desired targets, ripe for the plucking. Tactical A-wing and heavily outfitted B-wing squadrons had just been launched prior to vectoring into Myrkr realspace. Khurgee had been under command of the division's support squadrons, and was now directing his B-wing and A-wing groups.

"Right..."

Adressing his B-wing formations...

"... gold group, green group, red group, yellow group, take flanking positions on our starboard side of the task force to intercept enemy craft once the scenario presents itself."

Adressing his A-wing detachment...

"Squadrons 1-3, intercept target alpha, lock on and destroy, move in formation with your Victory escorts, over."

The first three line ups of the A-wing detachment joined up with their three Victory destroyer escorts and proceeded on target.

"Squadrons 4-6, intercept target beta, lock on and destroy, move in formation with <!--EZCODE BOLD START--> your<!--EZCODE BOLD END--> Victory escorts, over."

The second detachments joined in formation with their three Victor destroyers and followed suit in tandem en route to intercept the next logistical facility.

"Squadrons 7-8, move to cover formation with the <!--EZCODE BOLD START--> Blaze<!--EZCODE BOLD END-->, over."

The last two regiments of fighters shifted their thrust and vector, to match the command destroyer. Khurgee nodded to Cronus, who took lead in directing the last three Victory destroyers.

"Blaze of Glory to last Victory escorts, move in formation with a Scimitar bomber squadron heading to your vector, then proceed to target epsilon, over. Allow bomber sqaudron to proceed in monotary runs before commencing fire."

The last three Victory destroyers rondevouzed with a nearby and newly commisioned Scimitar bomber squadron and proceeded to bear down upon the shipyard facilities that resided in Myrkr's atmostphere.

Adalric upon completing his orders towards his inferior officers, sent a petition to Chadd Fearsons for an gesture of aid against the rebel threat as to complete his objectives.

Siather waited on the bridge of the Zealous Mist, hyperspace had a tendancy to be boring. He heard the beeping of the 20 second countdown to reversion from the panel beside his command chair and mentally counted down with it.

20...19...18...

It wouldn't be long now before he would be back where he enjoyed himself the most. The Gand had been itching to get back into action ever since the incident at Halowan. The Zealous Mist had taken alot of damage and had been sitting in dry dock for 2 weeks.

11...10...9...

Fortunatly the Commodore now commanded not only the Victory mk II Zealous Mist but the Victory mk I he helped to capture at Halowan, the Tempest Mist.

3...2...1...

The Zealous Mist came out of hyperspace and the Tempest Mist soon followed.

"Have the Tempest Mist follow us in closer to the planet and launch TIE squadrons Alpha and Beta into a defensive screen. Put Iota squadron on standby and have the Tempest Mist put Cappa, Delta, and Gamma squadrons on standby as well."

"Lead, take flanking marks."

Jakeel Marcus of 1st flight was directing the taskforce out to destroy target Alpha. His shaggy eyebrows somewhat ironically obscured his vission, though this did not impair his sevices and his duties

"Alright gents... assume combat position, bring sublight speed evasive countdown."

The cluster of A-wing vessels bore down on the lone shipyard, their bow's streaking towards differentiating points on the construct.

"2nd flight, target shield units of the phylon, then break vertical thirty degrees after your run."

His eyes followed the lead formations as 2nd flight gathered momentum towards the glittering target ahead of his group.

"3rd flight, break into wing formations, target all propulsion systems, after your run, break starboard thirty degrees."

Once again, another flight increased their propulsion units, and split into four groups of three fighters, each group monitoring the pacification of the shipyards momentum systems.

"1st flight, after our other two groups have gained ground on the target, we'll proceed for a final strike. Concussion weapon units only, strafe it's port, then break port thirty degrees."

2nd flight was quick for the objective, leaving the shipyard effectively disabled with a barrage of energy weapons. They banked in a vertical yaw thirty degrees, and returned to accompany their Victory escort back in formation to the <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Blaze<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->. 3rd flight's four wing's broke formation in unison, each wing maneuvering to knock out the constructs propulsion systems. Municiple explosions countered off the shipyards as it lost it's means of momentum. 1st flight came around the bend at an arch, unleashing a hail of concussion missiles cattering off the shipyard's exterior, sending chain reactions of explosions throughout the construct. 1st flight came around the platform's port, and returned to it's taskforce. The shipyard exploded violently, vaporizing ionized metal and sending fragment's of debris hurtling into the atmosphere.

OOC: No enemy forces under the sheild.
