The Damorian Corporation had decided it was time to move on a bring more planets under it’s corporation name and provide work for the citizens living there. Scottie Gill had handed this job on to his most trusted military defence commander, Gorman Toromo. The corporation of Chandrilla had begun. They had taken the forces from Balmorra and moved them to Esseles for staging. He had built many war vessels for defence, and because he thought the Imperials might resist with weaponry. Gorman looked at his data pad.
“30 Anti Infantry batteries at Chandrilla City, 100 SAMs and 50 Missile Pads. Not too much, we can just send the Dreadnaught Heavy Cruiser and Nebulon-B2 Frigates into atmosphere to blast the pieces of junk into dust. Or our X-1 Vipers can march into the city and blow them to pieces. The problem with that is we need to get or modified Gallofree to the ground without getting blown up. Their fighter defence is minimal, with only two hundred and forty-five fighters total. Our Shadow Droids and Ssi-ruuvi battle droids can easily take care of them. The amount of troops isn’t good for us, but we can always strafe the troops with our fighters, or our X-1 Vipers can deal with them on the ground.”
“A good plan sir.”
“Yes it is. The only problem with it Lieutenant is if they bring in a large fleet, they might be able to defeat us.”
“I doubt it sir. Our training is the best, and we have a large fleet here.”
“True. Anyway, engage the hyperdrive, lets move out and pay a visit to the citizens of Chandrilla.
The fleet disappeared into hyperspace enroute to Chandrilla.
<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> One day later.<!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> “Sir we have arrived at Chandrilla.”
“Excellent. Launch all fighters. Shields up. Send a message down to the planet.”
“Right away sir.”
“To the citizens of Chandrilla, this is Gorman Toromo of the Damorian Manufacturing Corporation. We heard of the Jutraalian Empire’s construction of a Death Star and the high unemployment rate. Therefore we decided to come here and provide you with more jobs and free you from the government that builds weapons of mass terror. We will not hinder the movement of civilian traffic, even if the Empire responds with force and a battle happens.”
“Message sent sir.”
“Excellent. Begin the jamming.”
The system wide jamming commenced as the fleet moved closer to Chandrilla.
“Send the Nebulon-B2 Frigates around the planet to circle it. Let all civilian traffic through, we are here to help them, not hinder them. Stay away from the mines. If they become active destroy them. Power up the main weapon, we will need it if a fleet comes.”

The day thus far had gone very simply, everything was normal. That is, as could be called normal on Chandrila. It seemed to be the very target for countless terror attacks and pointless debacles involving the most assinine idealistic manuevers. But with how the Jutraalian Empire had quickly saved the populace time and time and time again and with thus had won their fanatical support.
And for their fanatical support they had been greatly rewarded.
Taxes were at an all time low on Chandrila and freedom at an all time high. Law enforcement was excellent and the population had everything it could ask for. Perhaps the only true issue was unemployment, especially after the big factory shut down due to environmental issues.
It had witheld dozens of attacks all planned to tear apart its way of life, but never once had the enemies had that oppurtunity. Not only because of the unbelieveable military might there, but because of the simple fact that the people there would not allow it.
Like Averam and Despayre, Chandrila had seen the better half of the Jutraalian Empire, and no matter what propaganda the fools from the Empire tried to spew forth, it was never to any true avail, they had simply seen too much good come their way.
Like now as the pathetic excuse for a military that belonged to the Damorian Corporation reeled itself out of hyperspace. It took mere seconds for the IFF codes to read as hostile before several of the sonic mines went off around the enemy Eclipse Star Destroyer and ships surrounding it. Those fighters that had tried to dump out immediately were torn apart by the sonic booms, ripped into tiny shreds of indecipherable pieces of bulk.
Admiral Eyyer simply shrugged as he watched it from the private quarters of his Disruptor-Class Super Star Destroyer. He sat comfortably in his favorite chair, watching and smiling. It was exactly as the informants at Maverick Munitions had informed the empire.
The Damorians were indeed making a movement. It was of no real detriment. Thanks to their delay and abnoxiously loud movements, the whole of the Jutraalian Empire knew of the attack before it could ever occur. Ah the wonders of corporate informants and alliances. It really was intriguing, and he would have to learn more about it at one point.
But at the moment his major concern was to eradicate the enemy support ships that would cause direct harm to the cities on the planet. Defending the people was the first and foremost priority. Once that was done then the Jutraalian Empire could work to try to force them back.
While the enemy had indeed set up quite nicely they were a mere corporation and no doubt their ships were either undermanned or poorly trained. Of course, the admiral thought to himself, anyone is poorly trained compared to the rigorous training of a Jutraalian.
For the infantry it was weeks upon weeks at Averam station before being shipped off to Ylesia to learn the works of survival training in a harsh environment before being shipped off to Myrkr to survive the wilds of the forests. For the navy they were forced to go through rigorous mental and emotional training on Despayre and Obroa-Skai before receiving space ship experience over Generis.
It took far longer than usual but the end result was far greater than what could be desired by most.
And then for those special few who signed the proper forms and showed considerable promise were sent to Hoth for a...special project.
Now all that training would come to the test.
Thanks to that Maverick informant the Jutraalian Empire had set themselves up to prepare for the inbound enemy attack. In normal fashion they attempted to set up their jam, which was easily counteracted - or at least mostly counteracted - by high wave frequencies that in turn knocked the jam right back at them.
The immediate area around the Eclipse Star Destroyer would suffer from the jam, but beyond that it was little more than a static. On the far side of the planet it suffered no issues at all.
Another grin stole Eyyer's expression. They were ready.
The Arakyd weapons were already being charged and the shields were already on. Civilian traffic had been diverted, that way they would not be caught in the cross fire and the military craft were positioned in strategically important locations. Already as the nebs were trying to encircle the planet they were cut off by squadrons of Star Destroyers, mainly of the Victory-Class, but even then those were powerful enough to counter such little vessels. The missile boats they dropped only added to this effect.
It would take a bit of time for them to lock on, but it was no real deal, the missiles from the Victories were already targetted and would be firing momentarily (next post). Where the groups of Nebs were cut off (assuming they were travelling three at a time which is of the norm) they were met by equal VicStars and two Imperial Star Destroyers, at least most of the groups were. Some managed to slip through due to the sheer lack of battleships to counter them with.
The groups of Carracks moving in from behind would make short work of them soon however, as the firing arc was very limited to the aft of a Nebulan-Class B Escorft Frigate. So with X-Wing speed the light cruisers moved in and began to open up their vollies of lasers and turbolasers.
Mines already charged began to open vollies of both lasers and missiles on the enemy capital ships as were the admirals orders, beating on their shields viciously. The Nebulans, while packing a vicious punch, had very little defenses, especially against such craft.
The fighter skirmishes were not to the admiral's liking, but did that truly matter? Whenever enemy fighters would be drawn too close to the Victories they were torn apart by both missiles and laser batteries, the turbolasers were reserved for the enemy Nebs.
The Imperial Star Destroyers were mainly huddled around the Eclipse Star Destroyer, which would be a great detriment to the oncoming Disruptor-Class Star Destroyer and her escorts, but a few well aimed arakyd shots and a few of the hundreds of turbolaser shots would serve her well.
With the gencore shield generator turned on it only solidified the defenses and the little "message" the Damorians attempted to send was completely blotched out by their own attempted at jamming the system. Fighters waited and were prepped down on the ground, and the garrisons were set and ready.
The battle was on in full fury and it was time for the Damorians to learn what it meant to try to quarrel with Emperor Fearsons's empire.
(Sonic weapons in space? Right.... BTW, the most commonly accepted theory to why it was done in AotC is because the asteroids had enough gravity to carry a small atmosphere.)
OOC:I am only jamming the long distance communications, not in system ones. But oh well.
IC: "Sir we are being attacked by the mines and an enemy fleet is approaching."
"Fire the main weapon at the DSSD. Plot a course to the edge of the system. All fighters return to your bays."
"Course laid in."
"Excellent."
A fighter had gone from the ESD to each ship, with the exception of a couple NEbulon-B2 frigates. Therefor the information had travveled to everybody. Once one Captain saw another one jumping Damorian doctorian said they had to jump as well.
The superlaser beam flew out at the DSSD, destroying. Immdiatly it started to recharge. The ESD jumped to hyperspace. It came out at the edge of the system and powered up it's gravity well generators. The other ships arrived moments later.
From what I've read thus far you're already god moding.
My DSSD is not directly ahead of you for one.
For two, you can't do a microjump like that without very precise coordinations without quite literally destroying your ship. One post won't work, sorry.
Finally it takes up so much energy you wouldn't be able to pick up your grav wells.
B) You're right. Then again, if that was part of the their overall plan it would be signigicantly easier.
C) Considering that the ship carries both weapons, its likely that it has the ammount of power needed. It's supposed to power up its wells and start blasting ships...
Yes I was assuming his ISDs were huddled around his ESD. My DSSD is clearly out of range of them sumbitches.
As for C, it takes up a massive amount of energy to shoot the super laser, then aonther massive amount to jump, and then another massive amount to turn on the gravity wells. Now he COULD do all this for the expense of weapons, shields, and movement, but I doubt he wants that.
OOC:now this is pretty stupid. If your DSSD is heading towards my ESD and I'm heading in the general direction of your DSSD, then naturally in my post I would be able to fire on you, especially since you weren't complaining when my ships got halfway around the planet and you did the same. Plus I didn't complain when you somehow knew that I was going to attack Chandrilla. Bullshit about Maveurick. You can't just say, "We are competitors so I'm going to give you information about who I'm going to attack, especially when I knwo you are linked with TJE, my target." And saying that you have spies in Damorian, relativly high up, you have to RP that first. And saying, oh they are undermanned and don't have good training, more bullshit. I didn't complain about you. And if it says in the rules, "You can't do microjumps in one post" then I will edit my post. Considering you, as the Vong, did microjumps in almost every post in the Ylesia thread, I would shut the hell up about microjumps.
The reason the Yuuzhan Vong did it so easily was because it was done in canon. They did something else entirely. They opened a wormhole and simply teleported so to speak.
Your ESD was not heading toward my DSSD, my DSSD was hitting your ESD at the flank.
Do you REALLY want to do the microjump? You CAN, it's just you'll suffer quite the heavy damage from it. Why? You didn't calculate your course at all, you just...jumped. Microjumping - as admitted by Thrawn himself - is the most dangerous form of travel in the galaxy. Recklessly you'd lose half your ESD's systems in general.
