"Sir, the fleet has finished forming up. They await only for your command for hyperspace, Admiral." said the Sensors officer.

"Very well then. But one last reminder. When we attack this Galatic Coalition world, we may encounter stiff resistance, in the form of not only captial warships, but also heavy mine fields. Those mine fields are the same that disabled the Constrainer class Inderdiction Picket Binder several days ago. Twice we have suffered defeat in trying to take this system. But no more! Today, our third strike, will be successful. No longer will the defences of Ando stand against us. Today, they will fall!" said Admiral Kraken.

Cheering from the bridge met his words, and he felt a surge of pride, pride in his crews, his ships, and himself. With the speech having been said, it was time for the operation to commence. The Imperial warships swung about, out of a patrol formation, and into an attack wedge suitable for hyperspace. Then, with a further order from Admiral Kraken, the ships began to accelerate to hyperspace.

"Sir, by the way, we won't emerge anywhere near the mines, will we?" asked the Chief Navigator.

"Of course not. The list of coordinates I gave to you is a point well away from the nearest defenses of Ando." said Admiral Kraken.

With that, the Imperial fleet went into hyperspace, bound for the world of Ando.

Admiral Kraken was standing on the bridge of the flagship, the Star Destroyer Victorious, when the starlines faded, and the Imperial fleet emerged near the world of Ando. The world itself was some distance away, with the GC defensive mines looking like orbiting dust coulds from this distance. The Imperial squadrons formed up, and the fleet moved very slowly, waiting to see what opposition they would face in the way of enemy. The fighters launched, and formed up around the captial warships, and the whole fleet manuevered for inevitable battle.

OOC: In the Ando system:
1 Reign Star Destroyer
3 Victory Star Destroyers
2 Illustrious Fast Attack Cruisers
2 Strike Cruisers
2 Belarus Medium Cruisers
2 Fire class Light Frigates
2 Constrainer class Picket Ships
24 squadrons totalling 288 starfighters of various kinds.

Fleet Admiral Sarn had reamined at Ando, fearing another attack. He had sent for reinforcements as well, and had received them. The Constrainer Picket Ship, now renamed Freedom had stayed at Ando, with a full crew. The reinforcements that he had requested came moments before the attack. Their fighters were patrolling closely around them.

"Sir, we have ship reverting from hyperspace. They are Imperials."

"Load all missiles. Power up shields and weapons. The Imperials are back, just as I thought they would be. I want to ISDs on that large ship(Reign), 2 ISDs and 1 MC-90 Star Cruiser on those Victory Star Destroyers. 1 MC-90 on each of those 750m ships(Illustrious) and one MC-90 on one of the Strike Cruisers. Then get 10 Defender Gunships on those two Belarus Strike Cruisers, one on each of the Constrainer Pickets and 6 on the two 285m ships(Fire Light Cruiser, three DGs firing on each one). I want the remaining five Defender Gunships to fire on the second Strike Cruiser."

"Yes sir."

"Fighters, stay with us and watch out enemy fighters. Make sure you are not between our capital ships and theirs."

"Yes sir."

"All ships, micro-jump towards the enemy now."

The fleet micro-jumped towards the enemy and started firing.

"Imperial vessels, you have entered Galactic Coalition space. Surrender now and you will not be harmed. Any attempt to attack us, or leave the system will be viewed as a hostile action."

Fleet Manifest:

4 MC-90 Star Cruisers
4 Imperial Star Destroyers Mark II
23 Defender Gunships
Constrainer Picket Ship- Freedom(No mini-gravity well)
6 Sentinel Shuttles
180 TIE Defenders
252 A-wing Starfighters
Full troop compliment.
All ships over 100m equiped with the Elite Anti-Missile System.
1 Gencore Two Shield Generator
50 000 Ion Mines


Damages:

Reign:
Shields down to 50%
VSD 1(ISD attacking it)-shields down to 30%
VSD 2/3(1 MC-90 attacking each)-shields down to 40%
Illustrious Fast Attack Cruiser 1/2-shields down to 40%
Strike Cruiser 1(MC-90 attacking it)-Shields down to 10%
Strike Cruiser 2(5 Defender Gunships attacking it)-shields down to 15%
Belarus Medium Cruiser 1/2 (5 Defender Gunships attacking each)-shields down to 15%
Fire Light Cruiser 1/2(3 Defender Gunships attacking each)-shields down to 10%
Constrainer Picket Ship 1/2(1 Defender Gunship attacking each)-shields gone, hull at 90%.

Fighters: Depends on what you do with your fighters

Me:

Assuming your ships are spreading fire to all the ships that are firing on them.
Mimimal Shield Damage to all vessels.

Fighters: Depends on what you do with your fighters.


Note:
My damages are reasonable because in all these cases my ships total meterage is a lot more then it's enemy(close to twice as much for all ships 750m and over and over twice as much for all ships less then 750m). For all ships less then 750m I can destroy them legally in two posts(This being my first).

OOC: Still waiting for you to edit the damages to my ships, but in the meantime..........

IC: The manuever by the Galatic Coalition fleet caught the Imperial ships by suprise, but the suprise quickly faded, and was replaced by anger, and determination. The Imperial warships, and starfighters quickly rallied, and orders were immediatly issued. All the starfighers equipped with torpedoes immediatly fired them at one of the Imperial class Star Destroyer in the enemy formation, a total of two hundred and forty proton torpedoes were now in route to the enemy star destroyed. The Defenders wheeled about then, and targeted another Star Destroyer, firing another two hundred and forty proton torpedoes at them. Now, with each Defender having two torpedoes left, they, and the TIE Devils, engaged the enemy starfighters. The Fire class Light Frigate also added her anti-starfighter cannons to the starfighter engagment, targeting any enemy bombers, and starfighters.

As for the Imperial captial warships, however, their manuever was far more effective. They all pulled a turn to starboard, or port, about half and half for each direction, brining all their weapons on one side to bear at the enemy warships, while the enemy ships could only bring weapons on their bows to fire on the Imperial warships. The Imperial warships chose the two Imperial class Star Destroyers that were not under assault by the starfighters as the target for their massed turbolaser fire, while they concentrated all their ion cannons, and half their missiles upon on two MC-90s. Forty Heavy Turbolaser Batteries, and Cannons, plus one hundred Medium Turbolaser cannons fired on one Star Destroyer each. 30 Heavy Ion Batteries, 40 Medium Ion cannons all focused their fire on two enemy MC-90 cruisers, scattered ion cannon energy all along their length. Then, the Victory class Star Destroyer Black Widow, and the two Illustrious Fast Attack cruisers loaded their missile tubes, preparing some eighty concussion missiles, and ninety six proton torpedoes for a deadly barrage.

In the meantime, during the Imperial response with weapons, the Imperial response with engineering and special systems came into play. The Illustrious Fast Attack Cruisers bled engine power into their shields, reducing their maximum speed by 60%, in order to restore their shields to 110%. The Reign class Star Destroyer, and the Victory class Star Destroyers, while not having the awesome power rerouting capabilities of the Fast Attack Cruisers, still possessed the ability to reinforce one set of shields from shields elsewhere. And so it went, lowering the shields on the side away from the enemy, leaving just enough to deal with an enemy attack, and sending that power into the hurt shields, for the most part, repairing them. And the smaller ships did what they could to repair themselkves.

OOC: Damages:
Imperial:
1 Reign class Star Destroyer: Shields on portside reduced to 15%, shields on starboard side reinforced to 100%.
3 Victory class Star Destoyers (1 Mark I, 2 Mark II): Shields on portside on Mk1 reduced to 15%, starboard reinforced to 95%.
Victory Star Destroyer Mark I Black Widow: turned to starboard.
Victory Star Destoyer Mark II Cobra, Python turned to portside, shield transfer opposite of that.
2 Illustrious Fast Attack Cruisers, shields to 100%.
2 Strike Cruisers, shields up 35% on side facing enemy, down to 15% on side facing away.
2 Belarus Medium Cruisers, shields up 35% on side facing enemy, down to 15% on side facing away.
2 Fire class Light Frigates, ".
2 Constrainer Pickets, ".

25 TIE Devils destroyed
35 TIE Defenders destroyed

I'm going to take the Imperial revised damages, add my shields back accordingly for the transfers, then reduce them by 5% for the damage my ships took in this post.

GC:
2 Imperial Star Destroyers Moderatly damaged (Shields to 25%, Hull in some areas to 80%)
2 MC-90 Cruisers partially disabled (all systems 45% disabled)
54 A-wings destroyed (24 by TIE Devils, 30 by Fire Light Frigates)
100 TIE Defenders destroyed (by my own TIE Defenders)

EDIT: I realised that the overall shields were affected, so I cut down on the shields by half on all ships because they didn't have as much energy to transfer, except the Illustrious Cruisers:

Reign Star Destroyer: Shields facing enemy currently stands at 75%.
Victory Star Destroyer Mark I: Shields facing enemy currently stands at 75%
Victory Star Destroyer Mark II Cobra: Shields facing enemy currently stands at 65%
Victory Star Destroyer Mark II Python: Shields facing enemy currently stands at 65%.
Illustrious Fast Attack Cruisers: Shields facing enemies currently stands at 100%.
Strike Cruiser 1 (Asp): Shields stands at 50%.
Strike Cruiser 2 (Eel): Sheilds stands at 50%.
Belarus Medium Cruiser 1/2: Shields stands at 50%.
Fire class Light Frigates 1/2: Shields stands at 55%.
Constrainer class Pickets: Shields stands at 10%.

"Sir, they have launched missiles."

"Don't worry, the Missile Defense System will deal with it. All guns, continue firing. Transfer power from aft shields to bow shields, reinforcing them. Also, transfer energy from engines and any other spare energy you can find, such as trash compactors. I want two salvo's of missiles. One at each of the 750m ships(Illustrious). Concentrate the ion cannons on the two Star Destroyers that are attacking the largest ship(Reign) on the two 750m ships(Illustrious) as well."

"Yes sir."

115 Missile came out from the Defender Gunships, 556 Missiles came out from the fighters, 12 came from the Sentinel Shuttles, 12 came from the MC-90s(and yes I took into account that two of my MC-90s have less weapons then usual due to the ion attacks). This was a total of 695 missiles, of which 347 went after one Illustrious, and 348 went after the other. When they impacted they would severally damage the shields, and probably the hull.

“Shields down on the Constrainer Pickets.”

“Excellent. Order our Constrainer Picket along with one Sentinel Shuttle to attack the first enemy Constrainer Picket. As well, the other 5 Sentinel Shuttles should attack the other Constrainer Picket.”

“Yes sir.”

“Those two Defender Gunships will move out, and attack the 750m ships(Illustrious).”

“Yes sir. Right away sir.”

“Good.”

“Sir, the A-wing have reported all TIE Devils destroyed.”

“Excellent. Send them after the TIE Defenders.”

“Yes sir.”

All the remaining fighters moved in on the enemy TIE Defenders, but were sure to stay away from the Fire Light Cruiser.

Damages:

Reign: Shields down to 35%
VSD 1: Shields down to 30%
VSD 2: Shields down to 20%
VSD 3: Shields down to 20%
Illustrious 1/2: Shields down to 70%(missiles have yet to hit, 2 Defender Gunships now firing on them)
Strike Cruiser 1: Shields down to 5%
Strike Cruiser 2: Shields down to 10%
Belarus Cruiser1/2: Shields down to 10%
Fire Light Frigate 1/2: Shields down to 15%
Constrainer Picket 1(5 Sentinel Shuttles firing on it): Shields down, hull to 50%
Constrainer Picket 2(1 Constrainer Picket/1 Sentinel Shuttle firing on it): Shields down, hull to 55%

All TIE Devils Wiped out
50 TIE Defenders destroyed

My fleet:
2 ISDs: Shields reinforced to 60%(counting damage it would have take in my post)
2 MC-90s: now 65% disabled, shields still up

Fighters:
20 TIE Defenders Destroyed
30 A-wings Destroyed

NOTE: Your missiles have yet to impact against my shields, will let you include that in your damages that you inflict.

Also, my missiles have yet to hit your Illustrious Cruisers.

The Imperial fleet, formed into a single line of battle when they crossed the enemy "T", were now headed out, away from Ando, and Admiral Kraken intended to keep it that way.

"Have the Cobra detach from the main formation to assist the two Constrainer class Pickets in dealing with the enemy pickets, and gunboats. Python will move to screen the two Illustrious cruisers from the incoming missiles. Have four squadrons of our starfighters break off from the current engagement, and assist Python in dealing with the incoming missiles. Same goes for the two Fire class Light Frigates. Have the Black Widow, and the Inexorable, and Indefatigable launch all of their missiles, and torpedoes, targeting the damaged Star Destroyer on their right side of the formation. All the fleet's ion cannons will also target this Star Destroyer, and reduce it's anti-missile capabilities before the torpedoes hit. The fleet's heavy turbolaser batteries, and cannons, along with the medium turbolaser batteries, and cannons will target and eliminate a single gunship at a time. Finally, any leftover weapons will be used to target gunships as well. Keep us on our current vector, and prepare the ship's for hyperspace, calculating course to Vladet. Finally, transfer power from weapons that cannot acquire targeting locks due to their firing arcs into the shields on all the ships." ordered Admiral Kraken.

The Cobra detached from the Imperial formation, and used her turbolaser batteries, and ion cannons to deal swift destruction to the captured Interdiction Picket renamed Freedom. Also taken under fire by the Interdiction picket she faced, she was quickly overwhelmed by the firepower. At the same time, the Medium turbolaser cannons on the Cobra, as well as the ten double laser cannons aboard the other Interdiction Picket, dealt death to the Sentinel Assault shuttles coming against her. Three were destroyed outright, and one more was damaged. The two Constrainer Pickets both recieved light to moderate damage in return.

Meanwhile, in soared some six hundred or more enemy torpedoes, and missiles, three hundred of each targeting one Illustrious Fast Attack Cruiser. First, they met resistance in the way of four squadrons worth of TIE Defenders, the fighters using their numerous laser, and ion cannons to good effect, destroying some one hundred missiles before the remainder sped past the fighters. Then the two Fire class Light Frigates sped in, using their sixty quad laser cannons to excellent effect, destroying another two hundred and seventy missiles before they were past that obstacle as well. Then, in a sudden move, the Python deaccelerated, while the two Illustrious cruisers accelerated slightly, placing the Victory Star Destroyer Mark II in the path of the missiles. Two hundred concussion missiles, and proton torpedoes slammed into the starboard side of the Victory Duece, overwhelming the reinforced shields, and peppering the hull with explosions. The Victory Duece was badly hurt, but by no means was out of the fight. Finally, the last forty or so torpedoes, and missiles looped around the Victory Duece to strike the two Illustrious Cruisers, lowering their shield power by 15% apiece, thanks to the efforts of so many ships to prevent the full weight of the missile from striking them.

Now, it was time for retribution. The Victory Star Destroyer Black Widow launched all eighty of her missiles, and the two Illustrious Fast Attack Cruisers, Inexorable, and Indefatigable, each launched forty eight proton torpedoes. The combined one hundred and eighty six captial ship grade proton torpedoes, and missiles arced in torwards their target. Then, the crippling force of over one hundred ion cannons, some heavy grade, most medium, met the Star Destroyer that had been targeted by the missile salvo. Ion energy skittered over the entire surface of the Star Destroyer, disabling systems, and causing small and isolated fires to break out. Also, the Command tower was also hit, and the bridge controls suffered terribly. The only systems that didn't suffer were the hangar bay, and the propulsion. Then, the turbolasers on most of the fleet's vessels roared to life, some one hundred cannons, medium, and heavy, lanced out, seeking one gunship at a time. The power and concentration of the fire was so great that one salvo was all that was needed to heavily damage a single gunship. In this manner five gunships were quickly reduced to crippled, burning wrecks. The laser cannons, and other weapons that hadn't been previously employed now were, lancing out and striking various other defender gunships. Finally, the fleet's TIE Defenders that hadn't left to engage the missiles were again on the offensive, using their last two torpedoes apiece to score gruesome kills against the enemy fighters.

OOC: Damages:
TGC:
1 Imperial Star Destroyer 50% disabled (the target of over 100 ion cannons. 186 missiles, and torpedoes enroute.)
5 Defender Gunships heavily damaged/crippled (Shield: 0%, Hull: 15%) (the target of over 100 heavy, and medium turbolaser cannons, and batteries salvos)

3 Sentinel Shuttles destroyed (the target of 26 medium turbolaser cannons, 10 dual laser cannons)
2 Sentinel Shuttles damaged (Shields reduced to 50%)
75 Starfighters destroyed (55 A-wings, 20 TIE Defenders)
10 Starfighters disabled (5 A-wings, 5 TIE Defenders) (The target of one or two proton torpedoes apiece, plus laser and ion fire from approximatley 94 TIE Defenders)

One of the undamaged MC-90s, the Galactic Voyager, the one what was firing on the Python, immediately cut between missiles and the Imperial Star Destroyer. That ISD stopped firing, and started to manoeuver around the MC-90, to fire on the Reign. However, the MC-90's action was not need. The Illustrious's missiles and ion cannons swept right into the VSD Python. Meanwhile, the Elite Missile Defence System on the MC-90 destroyed all but 3 of the missiles in coming from the VSD.

"Sir, the shields on the MC-90 Galactic Voyager will hold. And the enemy VSD's shields are down, and they have a huge hole on thier bow. Also, they are 15% disabled."

"Excellent. Tell Galactic Voyager to move out on the Illustrious. Get one of the partially disabled MC-90s to finish off Python. Get the other perfect MC-90 over here to hit the Illustrious and get the final partially disabled MC-90 after the Strike Cruiser. Get the partially disabled MC-90s and the slightly disabled ISD to work at getting their systems back on-line."

At the same time, the ISD II firing on Cobra, swept between it and the Sentinel Shuttles, leaving only three destroyed and 2 slightly damaged. It's starboard weapons unloaded on the Cobra, while it's port weapons fire on the COnstrainer Picket Stellar Web, destroying it. Immediately the Sentinels and Constrainer Picket reinforced their shields and then fired on the last constrainer, destroying it. The Sentinels reinforced shields by cutting all power, life support, and heating to the empty troop and cargo compartements, after sealing them off. Their shields raised to 80%. The Constrainer Picket reinforced it's shields back up to one hundred percent, because it had lots of extra power not being used, due to not having the micro-gravity well generator installed.

"All Sentinel Shuttles, and Freedom, move in on the enemy fighters."

"Yes sir."

The Defender Gunships had not been idle, and had reinforced their shields back up to 75%(5 with shields wiped out) and 100%(2 with shields reduced to 50%), from weapons not being used, shields not being used, and from turning off non-essential equipement, like trash compactors, and life support in areas not beign used. Also, for the most part only emergency lighting was used, and the heat was lowered, though only slightly. They also sealed off areas that had been breached, and cut all energy to those areas.

The fighters, Sentinel Shuttles and Constrainer Picket moved in and fire thier missiles, laser cannons and ion cannons at the enemy fighters.

Two ISDs continued to bombard the Reign Star Destroyer, while 2 Defender Gunships and 2 MC-90s with perfect shields fired on the Illustrious. The Defender Gunships continued to take on Strike Cruisers, Belarus Cruisers and Fire Light Cruisers.

All the capital ships fired their missiles at the Reign Star Destroyer. 133 missiles flew out at the Reign.

Damages:

1 Reign SD (Shields down to 15%)-133 Missiles on-route
1 Vicstar (Shields down to 5%)
1 Vicstar Duece (Python) (Shields down, hull down to 20%, 15% disabled)
1 Vicstar Duece (Cobra) ) (Shields down, hull 90%)
1 Illustrious Fast Attack Cruiser (Inexorable) (Shields down to 35%)
1 Illustrious Fast Attack Cruiser (Indefatigable) (Shields down to 25%)
1 Strike Cruiser (Shields to 0%, Hull 98%)
1 Strike Cruiser (Shields down to 10%)
2 Belarus Cruisers (Shields Down, Hull 85%)
2 Fire class Light Frigates (Shields Down, Hull 85%)
1 Constrainer Picket (Stellar Web) Destroyed
1 Constrainer Picket (Constrainer) Destroyed

Kraken watched with grimly as the enemy Star Destroyer interposed itself between the partially disabled Destroyer, and the missile salvo, destroying most of the missiles before they slammed into the brave destroyer with it's intact elite missile system. And Admiral Kraken had had enough of this.

"Sir, the Constrainer, and Stellar Web have been destroyed by the enemy ships. The Python and the Cobra are both heavily damaged, and the shields on our other ships are failing. Our hyperspace course is set, sir." said the aide.

"All ships, this is Admiral Kraken. Concentrate all firepower on those five heavily damaged Defender Gunships until they are destroyed, then flee the system, with the exception of the Python, Cobra, and Victorious. I want these ships to jump immediatly." ordered Admiral Kraken.

The Victorious shuddered as she began to move forward, and Admiral Kraken watched as the enemy missiles began to impact his ship, and for the first time Kraken began to regret shunting power from engines into shields. Damn, I should have used the non-essintal systems. What a fool I have been. Well, at least you have the chance to learn from your mistakes. And the consequences of making mistakes on his part became painfully clear to Kraken as the enemy firepower ripped into the midsection of Python as she began her run to hyperspace. The reactor core could handle no more, and began to fluctuate wildly. Her portside engines shut down, and she swung off course, then the reactor blew, blowing the ship apart. In her final death, though, the Python sacraficed itself for something greater, as pieces of her flew in between the Victorious, and enemy fleet, eliminating many of the missiles that would have finished off the Reign.

Then, the Victorious was gone, followed shortly by the Cobra. The Black Widow, and the two Illustrious Cruisers stayed just a little longer, exacting revenge for the Python, braving the enemy fleet's fire with their recently reinforced shields. One by one, the five Defender Gunships that had been badly mauled not so long ago succumbed to the fire of these three mighty ships. Then they were gone, leaving the two Strike Cruisers, and Belarus cruisers to lay down covering fire, taking a minimal to moderate amount of hull damage as they covered the escape of the FCLFs, which had recovered the remaining fighters. Then, the Strike Cruisers, and Belarus Medium Cruisers shot forth, and they too were gone, scantly three minutes after Admiral Kraken had issued his last set of orders for this engagement, marking the end of the campaign against Ando.

OOC: Losses:
TNO:
1 Victory Mark II Star Destroyer Destroyed (Python)
All remaining ships minimal to moderate hull damage.

TGC:
5 Defender Gunships destroyed


Remaining TNO forces having withdrawn from system.

"Sir, the enemy fleet has retreated."

"Excellent. Secure all possible enemy threats. I want transports docking with pieces of that Victory Deuce now. Search it. Capture all uniforms that you find. Get the TIE Defenders to pump a few more ion cannons into the disabled enemy fighters, and then bring them onto the capital ships. Once they are onboard, seal off the area, and send in a squad of troops and some robots. The robots are to try and stun the enemy pilots."

"Yes sir."

TIE Defenders immediately started to fly around the battlefield, looking for disabled TIE Defenders. When they found one, they immediately checked if it was friend or foe, and then fired five more ion cannon shots into the disabled TIE Defenders. They were then tractored by capital ships, and pulled into the docking bays. Robots immediately ran forward and opened the hatches, shooting stun shots down at the pilots.

"Sir, all the pilots have been stunned."

"Good. Haul them out of there, and place them in seperate cells, with no ways of communicating to each other."

The enemy pilots were dragged away.

"What about that VSD?"

"We have recovered numerous bodies, and quite a few intact uniforms."

"Excellent. What about computers?"

"So far nothing. The reactor is below the bridge, so most essential information would have been destroyed."

"Keep trying. Do we have any clue on where these guys came from?"

"There exit vector would put them at Vladet."

"Vladet...That's a construction planet, if I'm not mistaken. We will have to pay it a visit sometime. No doubt if they could have called in reinforcements they would have done so. That implies a relatively small garrison there."

"True."

"We will deal with them later. Get the technicians to go over the enemy TIE Defenders. Pull out all the data you can. I want any information we can get."

"Yes sir."

Technicians started to work on the enemy TIE Defenders, while transports pulled in drebis from the destroyed Victory Star Destroyer, and the Constrainer Picket ships.

OOC: Don't worry, from the VSD, I'm just getting the IFF transponder and some uniforms. From the Constrainer's I'm just getting some uniforms.
