OOC:The one week prior bit is based before TFE tried to give Bakura/Endor to TJE, since that is under debate.

IC:
One week prior.
Jesmin glared at the planet floating in front of her. Farquak, a planet that was covered in lieing, cheating, death wishing Cren. She hated their guts. But now she had a plan. She had met with a Mon Calamari that had ocne been part of her fleet. From Acbar she had learned that Emperor Teebo was injured and that the Mon Calamari Republic was commanded by that recruit Reep Kreegon. Jesmin had never thought highly of him. She also learned that the Republic had been smashed, due to an Imperial assault, and they were just recovering now. She also learned of a Coalition of Lightside Factions, which included the Tholatin Republic and the Jutraalian Empire, as well as the New Rebellion and the Azguardian Galactic Military. The New Rebellion had been formed after the fall of the New Republic. Jesmin wasn't sure that she liked having the Jutraalian Empire on her side, she had a great distrust in them and had a lot of anger built up inside of her because of them. She realized that she hated the Cren more, and that the Jutraalian Republic might just be able to help her defeat them. To accomplish her mission, she needed capital ships. She had told that to her friend and he had set up a meeting with the leader of the New Rebellion, Jan Dondana, on Bakura. She had been promised 2 Victory Star Destroyers and 8 Marauder Corvettes from them to accomplish her task. Also, he had said that he might be able to give her more reinforcements from other members of the Coalition. New Rebellion and Mon Calamari Repbulic Special Forces had been "recruited" into the Farquak Empire's navy. The majority of them were placed on Jesmin's flagship, the Missile Cruiser Fire Bringer, prepared to takeover the ship. Now, she only had to wait a week, and the assault would begin.

Present time, in orbit over Farquak.

Jesmin's sensor officer rushed over to her.

"Sir, we have incoming enemy ships."

"Fine. Sound the battle alarm."

The sound of the alarm raced across the ship. Jesmin quickly grabbed her com and said, Commence Operation Light. Suddenly it was pandemonium on the bridge and ship. The Special Forces personal started firing at the Cren, bringing them down. Jesmin also wiped out a blaster rifle and shot the two nearest Cren. Elsewhere on the ship, things were not looking so good for the Special Forces. In hangar bay five Special Forces personal were trapped between ten Cren, who were glaring at them. As they started to shoot, two Noghri and five humans ran over and took out seven of the Cren in the blink of an eye, and the other three were quickly killed. They banded together, but there were a lot of Cren Troopers in the hangar bay. Another squad of special forces rushed up to save them, but were suddenly pinned down by heavy repeating blaster fire. Two other Special Forces personal, saw the problem and quickly threw a grenade at the repeating blaster, killing Cren maning it. At the end of the fight in the hangar bay, three Special forces personal were wounded. The Special Forces had managed to kill the pilot of one of the Saber Assault Bombers before eh ahd launched, so it was still onboard the Fire Bringer. They started to move towards the bridge. At the reactor, five Noghri, three Wookies and five humans heard the call. They waited until one of the twenty Cren guarding the reactor clicked his com, to check what the battle alarm was for, and the others turned their backs to the Special forces personal. Two of the Noghri quickly killed the troopers that were maning the repeating blaster cannon, and the rest of the troops killed the other enemies. With the reactor secure, they sent an all clear message to the bridge.

"Sir, we have confermations that the hangar bay and reactor are all cleared. We also know that the mess halls are secure. All gunners have been killed. The rest of the ship is being cleared at the moment."

"Good. Do we control the ship then?"

"We can manuver, and activate shields, but our forces aren't sitting in the gunnery pods, so we can't shoot."

"Fine. Activate shields and manuver us towards the friendly force. What do we have on our side anyway?"

"1 MC-90, 2 Victory Star Destroyers, 8 Marauder Corvettes and a Missile Cruiser that can't shoot yet."

"Against 2 Missile Cruisers, a Shree Cruiser, two Corellian Corvettes and 49 Saber Assault Bombers. Doesn't seem all that bad."

"Nope, not really."

Onboard the MC-90 Galactic Voyager Acbar stood tall at hsi command.

"All guns, do not fire on the Fire Bringer. Tell all missile launchers on all ships to arm themselves. Fire missiles at their designated targets when ready. One Victory Star Destroyer is to deal with the first Missile Cruiser. The second is to fire all turbolasers at the first corellian corvette and all missiles are to be diamond boron missiles, to fire at those enemy fighters. I want all our guns firing on the second missile cruiser. Six Marauder Corvettes are to deal with the Shree Cruiser, and the other two are to get the corellian corvette. Do not mess up, I want us to be done with this battle soon."

The fleet moved out on assigned runs.

OOC:
Manifest:
1 MC-90-Galactic Voyager
2 Victory Star Destroyers
8 Marauder Corvettes

Crinium sat down in his chair on the planet of Farquak.

"Sir, the enemy had launched an attack. Also, we have lost contact with Fire Bringer."

"Crap. Order all fighters to launch and all Missile Cruisers to load missiles into their launchers. I want all ships to concentrate fire on those two Victory Star Destroyers."

"Yes sir."

Deception and the two Corellian Corvettes started fire on the first Victory Star Destroyer, massing their fire to nock the shields out. The Saber Assault Bombers roared in firing at the second Victory Star Destroyer, as they armed their missiles. The return fire from the enemy ships was strong. The MC-90 concentrated all fire on Blood Bringer, causing it's shields to go down in strength. The second Victory Star Destroyer started firing it's turbolasers at a corellian corvette, while two Marauder Corvettes took on the second one. Six Marauder Corvettes swarmed Deception, while the first Victory Star destroyer fired on Death Bringer. The Cren were outnumbered, but they didn't know the meaning of retreat. Farquak was their strong point, and they would never leave it unless they could command Crennial.

"All ground based troops, watch for another uprising, we don't want to win the battle up in space only to find that we have rioters at our gates."

"Yes sir."

Troops on the planet got their gear ready, as another rebellion was likely...

Fleet Manifest:
1 Shree Cruiser
3 Missile Cruisers
2 Corellian Corvettes
50 Saber Assault Bombers

Losses:
Light shield damage to all my ships, heavy to the Corellian Corvette under fire by the Victory Star Destroyer, and the Missile Cruiser under fire by the MC-90.
1 Missile Cruiser captured-once you complete the words
1 Saber Assault Bomber trapped on a captured ship

Your losses:
Light to Medium shield damage on all Victory Star Destroyers.

Acbar smile as eighty rockets flew out of each of the Victory Star Destroyers. The first set of them flew straight at the Missile Cruiser, and when that was done, there was nothing left of that enemy. The second salvo hit the Saber Assault Bombers, destroying each. Around the same time, the first corellian corvette was destroyed.

"All Victory Star Destroyers, concentrate fire on the remianing Missile Cruiser. Galactic Voyager, Commence fire on the two Imperial Star Destroyers within the shipyards with your ion cannons."

Blue ion cannon bolts flew at the shipyards, but more to the fact, straight at the Imperial Star Destroyers nearing construction. The turbolasers onboard the Galactic Voyager fire at the Shree Cruiser, since it was the closest enemy. Soon they would complete the mission of destroying the enemy space force, and capturing the enemy shipyards and vessels under construction.

"All Victory Star Destroyers, reload your missile tubes with ion torpedoes, and prepare to fire at the shipyards."

"Yes sir."

Ion Torpedoes began to be loaded into the missile launchers.

Onboard of Fire Bringer Jesmin had an idea.

"How much of the ship do we control?"

"All engine, shield, communication, sensors, hangar bay and reactor capabilities. We still have some Cren onboard the ship."

"Excellent. All thrusters, full power at the Shree Cruiser. All hands, prepare to go into escape pods."

The Missile Cruiser advance at full speed, running straight for the Shree Cruiser Deception.

Losses:
TFE:
1 Corellian Corvette-VSD
1 Missile Cruiser-VSD
All shields taken down on all ships
1 Missile Cruiser-semicaptured
49 Saber Assault Bombers destroyed
1 Saber Assault Bomber onboard of Fire Bringer, unable to launch

MCR:
Moderate Shield damage to 1 VSD(was attacked by everything)
Light Shield Damage to other VSD(was attacked by fighters)

OOC:You are firing on 1 ISD, 2 Aegis Star Cruiser in my SYs, not two ISDs, but ohwell.

IC:
On the planet Crinium was furious. How could they be losing so badly. He needed a new plan.

"All ships prepare to ram a target of your choice. Blood Bringer, fire on the more heavily damaged VSD with all your missiles."

Sixty rockets spewed out, taking down the shields of the heavily damaged VSD. Blood Bringer then advanced and moved in to ram the other VSD, while the surviving corellian corvette tried to ram the first VSD, that was now shieldless. Deception moved forward to ram Galactic Voyager. They might lose all their ships, but the enemy would lose a lot of ships as well...

Losses:
Yours are fine, just after this post your VSD that had moderate shield damage is now no shields at all.

"All hands, eject. Repeat, everybody eject. All tractor beams lock onto the Shree Cruiser. All bridge personal, prepare to eject."

Escape pods flew off of Fire Bringer as it prepared to ram Deception. It's tractor beams locked on and pulled Fire Bringer towards Deception. The tractor beams on the six Marauder corvettes likewise locked onto Deception and started to pull it towards Fire Bringer. When it was obvious that they couldn't miss, Jesmin locked down the controls and then the bridge crew ejected. The explosionwas huge, nocking out the shields of two of the Marauder Corvettes, and damaging the shields on the rest.

Onboard of Galactic Voyager Acbar started shouting out orders.

"All tractor beams, pull in the escape pods. All turbolasers, fire on Blood Bringer. All Marauder Corvettes, destroy the corellian corvette before it rams the VSD. All VSDs, launch your missiles at the ships under construction."

40 ion torpedoes hit each of the Aegis Star Cruisers, completely disrupting their circuits, and stopping all work on them. Fourty rockest also hit the VSD, and combined with the ion cannon shots from Galactic Voyager, disabled it. Twenty rockets hit each of the consturction yards that they were being built in, disabling them. Turbolaser fire it the remaining Farquak ships, and completely destroyed them. The battle was nearing a finish.

"All ships, attach to the two disabled shipyards and send troops into them. All VSDs, reload missile tubes with ion torpedoes again. We are almost down up here."

Losses:
Two SYs disabled, all ships disabled inside of them.
All ships destroyed.

Acbar growled out the orders that would bring the end to the Farquak Shipyards and Construction Yard.

"All Victory Star Destroyers, I want 60 Ion Missiles at each of the remaining shipyards and that construction yard."

180 rockets spewed out of the Victory Star Destroyers, and impacted on the shipyards and construction yard. As they impacted, blue lightning spread across yards, disabling them.

"All Marauder Corvettes and the two Victory Star Destroyers, head down into the atmosphere. Victory Star Destroyers, reload the tubes with ion missiles to disable the Gencore II Shield Generator that they have building in the construction yard. All Marauder Corvettes, land beside the prison and insert your troops. Galactic Voyager, use your tractor beams to send Jesmin Ragabag and her crew out int he escape pods and then down to the planet."

The 10 ships mentioned headed into the atmosphere while escape pods that had never been quite brought into the Galactic Voyager were redirected to the planet, their engines and everything still active.

"Prepare the com unit, I need to talk to the citizens."

"Yes sir."

Acbar leaned back, he had to chose the following words carefully...

OOC:You might want to retract the bit about the gencore two, that is on Farquak Junior. We do have an underconstruction CY at the point of the start of the thread, so I will say that you are preparing to hti it.

IC:

"What do we have at that CY that the Victory Star Destroyers are floating towards?"

"The 1st, 3rd and 5th Regular Regiments, and the 2nd Marine Regiment. A total of 3000 Regular Troops and 1000 Marines. At the prison we have the 2nd, 4th and 6th Regular Regiments and the 3rd Marine Regiment. The totals are the same for the prison. We have 600 Shoulder Mounted Rocket Launchers at each position, and 180 E-web 15 Hevay Repeating Blasters, just amongst the Regular Troops. The Marines have another 300 Shoulder Mounted Rocket Launchers and 50 E-web 15 Heavy Repeating Blasters. Also, if they try to unload troops, we have numerous snipers at each postion, and the E-webs will mow them down as well. All the troopers are inside garrisons, with the troops that have shoulder mounted rocket launchers in tall towers, snipers on a slightly lower platform and E-webs and troops on the main floor, with small durasteel protectors. Also, the E-web 15's have shields."

"Excellent. When the Victory Star Destroyers prepare to launch their ion missiles, they will have to bring down their particale shields, allowing our 900 Rocket Troopers to deliver a salvo of 900 rockets against one of the Victory Star Destroyers. At the prison, I want 112 Rockest going against the Marauder Corvettes at the earliest possible time, while the other four rocket troopers fire at whichever target they feel like. All other troops, prepare to engage enemy troops on the ground."

The orders were delivered, and soon the battle for the ground would commence in full...

Acbar was amazed when 900 rockest spewed up, just as his Victory Star Destroyers launched their missiles. The collision between the two masses of missiles was huge, and the explosion grew, destroying all the rockets and ion missiles. When 112 rockets flew at each of his marauders he knew that he was in a trap. Luckily the gunners on the Marauders managed to destroy some of the rockets, but some still got through. One Marauder was hit hard enough to take down it's shields, and all the other ships had half their shields destroyed.

"All Victory Star Destroyers, reload you concussion missile tubes with concussion missiles. All ships, come out of range of those missile salvos, then pound the garrisons flat."

"Sir, in destroying the garrisons we will damage the construction yard."

"I know that. Detail 40 launchers to destroy the construction yard, it is not needed. All Marauderts, minimize the damaged caused to the prison."

"Yes sir."

The vessels imediately fired, yet as they did, they began to rise up out of range of the rocket launchers held by the soldiers...

Crinium glared at the ships that were rising above the range of fire for the shoulder mounted rocket launchers. They hadn't done much damage either. As the enemy ships commenced a bombardment he knew it was time to disappear.

"All remaining forces, prepare to go underground and fight guerrilla wars against the current evaders. The Farquak Empire will not die. We will repulse the invaders. If they try more orbital bombardments, the galaxy will become aware of their methods and may strike back. For now though, we mujst fight with guerrilla tactics, our situation demands it."

Crinium turned off his com unit and raced towards his personal shuttle that was on stand by. If he could get to it he could escape off planet and start a war with these invaders...

OOC:D amage to my garrisons-medium damage, some towers have collapsed.

Acbar smiled as the VSD's missiles launchers were reloaded. 140 concussion missiles inpacted on the garrison, followed by salvos of turbolasers, destroying the garrison. 40 Concussion missiles hit the construction yard, and destroyed it. Over near the prison, the Marauders were striking out at the garrison, levelling it with turbolaser fire. The two Victory Star Destroyers started to move towards the prison.

Suddenly a message came in, from Haven.

"Admiral Acbar, the Victory Star Destroyer Rejuvenator is needed at Haven, for a new mission."

"Rejuvenator, stop your current course and plot a course out of system, to Jump Point Alpha, and then to Haven. You have a new mission."

The Victory Star Destroyer, Rejuvenator, started to flee from the system, in an attempt to follow orders. It slowly started to come out of the atmosphere, while the other Victory Star Destroyer, Guardian, move in to assault the garrison. There was no way that the Cren could stop them now. Acbar signalled his communications officer to start broadcasting.

"Citizens of Farquak, I am Admiral Acbar, of the Mon Calamari Republic's navy. You may reconize the name of my species, Mon Calamari, as you have held a Mon Calamari here against her will. Jesmin Ragabag, your so-called Chief Admiral, was never loyal to you. She only worked for you so that she could live, and plan an assault against Crinium. We are also bringing terrible news to you. Relatives of your leader, Crinium, were partially responsible for the fact that the Jed took over Crennial. The relatives of Crinium had invented a space travel machine, superior to any used today. It could transport you where ever you wanted. Somehow they managed to transport themselves to Jedark, the home planet of the Jed, and then revealed the location of Crennial. The relatives of Sawara found out and tried to warn the citizens, but it was to late, the Jed had arrived. I know call apon you, the citizens and the military, do you want to have the relative of someone who caused the takeover of Crennial to be in charge of your planet, or do you want the relative of someone who tried to save Crennial? Lay down your weapons, transmit a surrender, and we will not fire on you. Release Sawara, Dawara, and the other prisoners who were captured by Crinium after they tried to bring justice down on Crinium. Do not allow the one who caused the disaster of Crennial to lead you."

"Sir, we have detected a shuttle launching from what Jesmin Ragabag had identified as Crinium's headquarters. It matches the profile of Crinium's personal shuttle."

"Excellent. Rejuvenator, reload concussion missiles tubes one through ten with ion missiles. There is a shuttle fleeing the planet. I want it disabled. Shoot two missiles, then another two. If it still isn't disabled, fire the rest at it, and then bring it towards your docking bay. Once you have it inside, meet up with Galactic Voyager and transfer to us the shuttle. We can deal with the rest."

Rejuvenator started to cut across the path of the shuttle...
