It is a stressful several days as the battle fleets are drawn up from several places across the UNW, many governors using the presidential mandate to get their personal defense force fleets flying as well. A tense atmosphere presides over the carnival of ships assembling in orbit
😮 3
Captains spend the time sending hails to one another, and comparing battle strategies, as notable ship officers begin taking their places.

“Thank you, Agata” another deadly calm voice returns. “This is Admiral Rigers of the Vox Finalis, flagship of the UNW Fleet commanding the the combined RCOE and Tsatsos Defense fleet. Steel yourselves. Prepare to maneuver. Follow your instincts when commands fail you. Commanders report.”

out in deep space, it goes without doubt that the shapers are coming, and coming very soon. Every effort has been made to prepare the planet, including getting extra staff to the platform RCOE began building here long ago. A lone message, and reply, to the Wasimians on the Ark below has appraised them of the situation, and they've promised to provide anti-orbital groundfire if anything makes it close to orbit (enemy ships in quadrant 1)

A small shuttlecraft carries Robert from his bridge on the Vanguard to the Vox Finalis, docking quickly and without many formalities. Robert makes his way up to the bridge as soon as he's on board. He gives Billy a loose salute when he arrives. "Lord Admiral. This battle is going to go down in history. Let's make sure it's for the right reasons."

Movement: To move quadrants, 3 command points must be spent on ordering the pilot to change course. Only adjacent quadrants can be moved into, and the middle cannot be moved through. A check does not need to be made, but the command points need to be spent to do it. Combat: Targets can only be engaged in the same quadrant you are also occupying.

Dax makes his way into the bridge alone at the tail end of their conversation and gives a quick nod. "Hello, everyone." He spots Robert among the gathered and makes his way over to shake hands (or hug). "Robert... good to see you. Regulus cued you in to his little psychic thing, did he? He still hasn't let go of mine from weeks ago, actually," he says with a slight laugh.

“We will need to get into position to engage them. This battle will be wide and we need to be able to move. Leaning one way or another in advance will leave us open to a hole being punched in our defenses, but we can’t let them get to the planet either. I’d like to hear your thoughts on how we should engage. Do we position ships in Q2 and 3 or turtle back here in Q1?
Welcome Agata. Your expertise is more than needed.”

Bartholemew Thrace (Robert) 01-Dec-19 07:54 PM
"We can't afford to be flanked; as you say, we cannot let them reach the planet. I have no doubt that the enemy will try a two pronged strategy to find holes in our defensive line. We also can't afford to let them move into the planet's quadrant, lest they begin landing Shapers while the battle rages above. We need to make a stand before they reach orbit, which means we need to split our force into two. I'd argue that one stronger force tasked with clearing it's quadrant and another force tasked with simply defending it's own quadrant would be the ideal tactic. Once the stronger task force claims victory, it can swing back and help it's weaker counterpart. It'd also be worth keeping a small group of ships in reserve above the planet. I understand that the smaller task force would be in significant danger, and forcing anyone to join it is not something I feel comfortable with. Therefore I request command of the smaller task force and will bring only Void Warden ships and any others that specifically volunteer. The Vox Finalis needs to lead the stronger task force to a rapid victory if we are to survive this battle."

Billy Rigers 01-Dec-19 08:00 PM

"So do I, but I worry for Halia more. Your reasoning regarding reacting to the enemies movements is sound, but I do believe that having some of our ships in both quadrants waiting for the enemy is necessary, as we will be able to lay down fire as soon as they arrive, rather than the same happening to us instead."

Robert frowns momentarily. "Part of me was hoping I wouldn't have to do this.

(3/4 of them don't need it, and the one without can be teleported there by another, so we'll stick with the original it being at Tsatsos with your skirmishers) Outside, in the darkness of space, several points of light begin to blossom at the deep space LaGrange point. For a moment, a new constellation hangs in a ring formation in the Hailain night sky. On the ground, the Wasimians look up, with trepidation, the waves gently crashing against the creaking hull of their Ark vessel. Its few remaining guns track skyward on sluggish turrets. An orange/blue ring of energy connects these pinpricks in the void, and a swirling purple portal is formed, easily the size of a small planetoid.
Through it, comes the shaper host. squadrons of small vessels, followed by two large, maw open hive ships, and finally, a horrific creation never before seen in human space
an object the size of Gudrun's moon makes its way slowly out of the rift, trailing a tentacle as long as three battleships, crackling with energy. It looks to be a horrific amalgamation of flesh and metal, close range imagery showing its entire surface as a rolling boil of screaming human, alien, and bestial faces that ripple as though still alive.

Robert, still adjusting to the sudden explosion of MES potential granted to him by Reg, studies the alien war moon. "My nightmares didn't need more fuel..." he laments softly to himself. He quickly pulls himself together. "This is First Warden Robert Tanzer, I'm moving my task force to Quadrant 2 to guard our flank.

For too long we have mired in anxiety just to see what torture these monsters bring. But today we let that fear go. There is no room for it. Today we fight and live or die for every man woman and child in the galaxy. Let a great battle-calm wash over you as you understand your own power. They are otherworldly and grotesque, but we are brutal and cunning. We are the true swarm. We are the future. There is only room to show them our ruthlessness. Make no mistake, they will show us no mercy. So let that give you strength.

Aboard the Lawrence, Joshua's eyes grow large as the shaper's behemoth 'spikes' into view. His first thought is "What the hell am I getting myself into!" before he snaps out of that mentality. "We're here now, there's no changing that." Hearing Robert's warning of trouble in Q3, he calls out to the Lawrence's bridge and No Diggity's bridge "Mr. Tanzer says there is going to be trouble in our 3rd Quadrant, so we need to be there for whatever happens. Set course for Q3!" Looking toward the shapers as the pilots begin setting course, he calls to the comms team "We don't know what those things can do and what they can detect, but throw up whatever sort of sensor masking we can, on both ships!"

The Void Wardens combined fleet (of two ships) moves rapidly to Q2, preparing to hold out against whatever the Fleshshapers throw at them. Robert has them maintain a high speed with constant random trajectory adjustments in order to dodge any incoming fire from the aliens once they attack. (Both ships move to Q2 for 3CP and use evasive maneuvers for 2CP Vanguard and Eisenstern both pass, adding 3 to AC. I used Robs stats for the Eisenstein, if that's not right then the Eisenstein failed and doesn't get an AC increase)

Aboard the shaper vessel, a large habitation cyst is torn open and dozens of shaper warriors who had initially been preparing to board any enemy ship unlucky enough to get close are ejected into space. (Crisis for crew lost) shaper molders rush to the damaged compartment to try to re weave the breach and prevent it widening. (Which will be resolved on their turn)
(14, crisis is not ongoing, and shapers up)
The battleship rocks heavily, scarred from the hits but still space worthy, somehow. The worst of the damage looks to be repairing itself. Alone in quadrant 4, the finalis finds itself as the center focus of the entire shaper host, and the thirty patrol craft open fire first

As the battle begins the lights in the three WS ships go red and Agata is heard over the ships comms. “Vox has encounter enemy forces. Primary directive protect and save. All ships moving forward and engaging.” The comms go quiet before a recording from Seung plays. “Do your best and survive to win the day we will not lose now after these years of hardship. For the UNW and the galaxy.” Agata musters all it’s computing power to push the three ships to the limit as they silently make for the flesh shapers fleet. (And now the math portion.)

From the Lawrence, Joshua watches as Admiral Rigers charges himself and the Vox directly toward the shapers. He watches as hell is unleashed on one of the battleships, yet it continues on. He starts trying to think through his possible moves, weighing out the pro's and cons, when he see's Agata's fleet charge in behind, trying to cut into the battleship as well as patrol boat fleet. "I'm not sure if this is the smart move, but I gotta follow my gut..." he thinks. He calls out over the intercom to both No Diggity and From Miriam: "We're following the Admiral into the heart of the fight. We're gonna try and keep the fight out of Halia!" No Diggity and From Miriam charge to Quadrant 4, with Joshua calling out "No Digg, loose your Flak Emitter at the patrol boats. We need to shed them down!" He approaches the bridge command board, looking over his own weaponry, before seeing the power being sent to the spike drive. He orders a reroute of 20% of the power to the gunnery department, hoping to get an extra set of shots off on the Battleship.

(Taking a crisis on the 28) The battleship takes a series of hits along the bow and the lighting flickers before reconstituting. Sparks of some kind of bioelectric energy play over its surface. Three of the patrol boats begin breaking up between the Torpedo volley and the brave intercession of No Diggity, it’s flak cannons spraying clouds of black shrapnel into the void, pulping the stricken vessels and cutting them apart

(crisis for one of the 12's) The battleship takes more damage, spreading across the organic metalweave of its hull. Tendons pop, patches of flesh char away, bones snap with wet crunches as bulkheads collapse inside. A non-critical compartment is vented to space, along with a handful of shaper boarding forms, who had been preparing to launch

I’m glad I took that instead of your cruisers, boys. Little help? Billy says over coms, obviously strained from the huge blow to the ship. On the bridge, Billy swipes to a hologram vision of the ship’s blueprints and hull breach area pulsing red, spinning and zooming in on the troubled area. Looking for a moment he nods, a quick calculation running through his head. “Engineering deck, get that hole closed, industrial and repair bots report to hull breach and bend it back. Get some extra panels out there and weld the tear before it grows! We’ve got this. Nothing critical was damaged. Seal off that bay to work and prevent further venting and tearing. You know the drill.” (Resolve crisis first. What do I roll, fix?)

(Id imagine you’re on the heavier ship)
The two battleships , one of them flagging heavily and wounded, pull up alongside the vox finalis and their boarding shuttles loft into the void, Some are cut down in the crossfire between the closely packed ships, though 70% make it through , impacting against the side of the finalis and drilling deep. (Normal fitting in skyward steel has them not normally hurt things with armor this high but the shapers obviously have a vested interest in boarding and you’ve seen evidence of them doing so to other highly armored warships during wreck discoveries. So I’m aware of the book rule but am flexing it here, before I get a bunch of pms from people)
Red lights flicker on aboard the finalis as the boarding team are detected, looking to be about 80 strong if each is completely packed. The battleships fires their lighting guns at the vanguard

The vox reports boarders beginning to beat their way inside and power goes out across the ship, the last transmissions from its port side gunnery deck sending nothing but screaming and gunfire into the void. Communications go dark after that and the moon seems to forget its focus on the vox finalis. As-astra fighters streak by sending six of the patrol@boats to their doom, strafing them with anti ship rockets and gunfire. The heavy capital ships square off against the battleship, the combined gunfire crippling it but not destroying it

Under relentless fire from the patrol boats, there is little that the Eisenstern can do to defend itself. With it's spinal beam cannon still charging up for a second shot, the ships Captain desperately tries to avoid the enemy barrage, to little effect. After a few minutes of sustaining heavy damage, one of the Fleshshaper projectiles connects with the now exposed capacitor for the spinal beam cannon, causing a massive explosion, splitting the ship in twain.

While the gunners are working on homing in their next shots, Joshua notices the moon beginning to crack. His first shot is to launch attacks at the cracked open areas, but thinking further, deduces they should fire where the cracks end, to hopefully extend them further. He calls out "Gunnery department, aim for where the cracks begin! Hopefully then we can open this fucking thing up for the rest of the fleet to strike at its... Heart? Whatever the hell runs it!"
(Above and Beyond: shoot/int: 11 v 9) (Thinking int since hes deducing where the shooting is most effective?)
He then calls out to the comms team "We need to hit this moon with the same ECM attack as that battleship!"

The fighters ensure the wrecks of the patrol boats remain wrecks, atomizing the drifting hulks of the smaller ships into even smaller wreckage and scrap. At least expensive orbital cleansing efforts will be more cost effective now. The capital ships duel the moon, inflicting damage that capitalizes on the weakness brought on by previously inflicted shots (The smart cloud activates after enemy fighters attack? or it does but has to be my turn)

From the bridge, Joshua watches as the 'moon' begins leaving Halia's region. He calls to the pilots "We cannot let that shaper moon leave! Plot a course to intercept, we need to give it all we have!" He spends a few minutes calculating trajectories from the ship onto the moon for their current course and sends the attack plans to the gunners.

Looking out the porthole viewer back at the moon, you see the vox furiously emerge from the floating debris clouds of its attendant ships. The slimline nose of the something sleek tumbles by, rammed by the vox’s bow, and the battleship unleashes an intense salvo from it its guns, dozens of rapid fire shots from high intensity cannons. Combined fire from the remaining ships pulverizes the living rock , twisting metal and setting fire to large sections. It crumbles slowly, into hundreds of pieces

Letting out a huge sigh of relief as the moon crumbles away, Joshua collapses back into his seat for a moment, before remembering the two extra chunks that broke off. He calls out to the gunners "We're almost there, crew! Theres two more fleshshaper shitstains we need to wipe from existence before we can relax a bit! We are going to unleash everything we have on the closer chunk, on my go.* "He runs through some calculus based on their current speed, the shapers speed, and the distance between. After running the math a few times, he sends his findings down to the gunners, saying* "Aim your guns to the coordinates I just sent down, then unleash hell!"
