[YK] Excuse me, Mr. Penguin, we're going to board the OmegaMatic in the other forum.

*Aboard the Mangar, the red-shirted extras are frantically trying to repair their shield generators. Shield strength is down to 5% and is not regenerating. It seems a critical component was fried by the sustained onslaught of the Tantalus Ray and the repair will take upwards of 10 minutes. The temporary commander comes to a decision.*

Commander: Pilot, we need to turn back out of range of that ray. We could not survive another blast and our shields might not have regenerated in time.

*The Mangar swings around and heads away from the OmegaMatic.*

*BBW sees the Mangar turn about and speed away. His eyes flick to the Tantalus charge meter, which is at 80% power, then to a number at the right top of the screen, which shows estimated time for the Mangar to reach the edge of the Tantalus's range. His finger poses over the fire button as the time counts down and the power meter counts up. Time seems to slow as the time nears zero and the power nears 100%. It's going to be close ...

Finally, the power reaches 100% and BBW stabs the fire button. The blue beam streaks out over space and just catches the Mangar as it reaches the outer limits. The Mangar's shields dissolve as it crosses into the safe zone. The ship is undamaged, but the shields are gone.

BBW hammers the console with his fist.*

So close. Soooooooo close. Arrrrgggghhhh.

*Dienikes, commander of the New Persia curses and promptly pre-pares to exicute the man who informed him that the Chiss fighters were good, then thinks better of it...*

[Dienikes] New Persia move to engage the Mangar! X fighters engage the Mogship!

*The New Persia speeds, if that is possible with a heavily armed cargo carrier, toward the Mangar. The three X fighters speed toward the Mogship. Dienikes smiles as he decides what to do with the foolish traitor*

[Dienikes] Load the traitor in the megaton nuke tube!! smiley - winkeye

*Yo's ships, the Corvette and the Blastboat move to engage the Mogship attacking the OmegaMatics defenses*

[The Mogship attacks these new invaders. It seems to be able to fire in all directions simultaneously, and does so, at Yo's ships, the Corvette, the Blastboat, the Tantalus Beam, and the Chiss fighters]

Xerces The Keeper of Blades and Bows

*The three X fighters break up, 1 to the right, 1 to the left, and 1 to the bottom. The bottom X fighter rolles up toward the ship (if there is such a direction in space) avoiding the mogships firing and begines blasting its plasma cannons across the bottom of the ship. The roll brings it out and front, it makes a tight arc and flies upside-down (again if there is such a thing in space) and pre-pares to strafe the top of the ship. The X fighter that took the right also exicutes a roll...an ugly roll, ends it right infront of a turret, and is promptly blown into a thousand pieces. The left fighter launches 2 small missels, holds down his plasma cannon fire button and flies fullspeed into the side of the Mogship.....The Blastboat halts its engines, puts its shields to full forward and begins releasing its entier arment at the mogship. Every turret on the Corvette lock onto the mogship.....*

*The New Persia is almost within gun-range on the Mangar. A mega-ton nuke hatch opens. Seconds later a small figure blasts out of the hatch at a good several thousand miles an hour. The traitor which has been blasted at the Manger splats againts the main viewport of the Manger leaving a gooey red and black residue like that of a 10 foot bug splatted againts a car window.*

The shield generator is repaired and the shields start to power up, but the New Persia is getting uncomfortably close.

Commander: Where are the Esirpretne and Millenium Bug?

1st Officer: The Esirpretne is on the far side of the OmegaMatic and the Bug is over top. They don't seem to be drawing much fire.

Commander: Do you think one of them could get her to assist before the New Persia gets here?

!st Officer: Negative. They are too far away.

Commander: Looks like we are on our own, then. Shields are up to 10% now, but that won't hold them off long. smiley - sigh Be prepared to jump to hyperspace - we may need to in order to save ourselves. We have 3 or 4 posts before they are within range, but as soon as they are, fire at will.

*The New Persia continues on a steady course toward the Mangar. The two extra shield generators which are usually used to re-enforce the Mega-ton nuke storage switch to full ship protection due to the fact that no nukes are carried. The shield strength is now tripled without loss of speed. All guns begin to target the Mangar*

*The left X fighter which was trying to kamakasi the now disappeared Mogship flies directly into the plasma blasts comming from the top ship which was trying to rake the Mogships shields. The Corvette stops and waits knowing this trick cant last forever. The blastboat begins to re-charge its weapons and heads full speed to Assist the New Persia's attack on the Mangar*

*The Mangar's captain has a sudden idea*

Captain-Alright, everyone. Begin firing at anything that comes too close for comfort. Otherwise, concentrate all efforts to executing the Picard Maneuver on the most hostile energy ships.

*The Red-Suited Extras nod their heads and quickly get to work. As soon as the Mangar's weapons systems are powered up, the Mangar makes a quick hyperspace jump that lasts for less than a microsecond, causing them to end up right next to the Corvette. The Mangar fires. Another extremely quick jump, and the Mangar is right next to the New Persia. The Mangar fires. The Mangar makes another quick jump leading out of range of the other ships, and begins repositioning itself, while the Captain of the Mangar watches as the energy blasts shoot like battering rams at the other ships. The entire maneuver took less the two seconds*

Captain-How much longer until we can do that again?

Lieutenant Doomed-Too long. Three posts at minimum.

YO!! sorry but I killed off two of ur X fighters..the other is left looking for the Mog...I couldn't help it smiley - smiley

*The surprisingly powerful blast from the Mangar knocks out the first of the 3 shield layers protecting the New Persia and knocks the second layer down to 50% (the outer two are secondary shields not ment to protect the entire ship but more a small area so they are not very powerful*

[Dienikes]Two can play this game. Hyper to just above the Mangar, you know what to do after that!

*The crew obeys and the New Persia promptly appears above the Mangar. And launches from the Ventral Weapons systems its quad barrel laser cannon, 1 Heavy turbo-laser, and all four missle cannons. These weapon systems completely used the ship hypers out a small ways and hypers back just below the Manger. From its dorsal Weapons systems it releases 100 Rounds of 20mm uranium tipped explosive shells then fires its 4 barrel laser cannon at full power. Both are attempts to take-out the already weakened shilds. Then in hopes that the shields are weakened the New Persia lets out a salvo of 40mm armor piecing shells from its starboard and port cannons. And as the finally the Plasma cannons engulf the ship in a firey red blast of hadies. The New persia hypers out to just beyond firing range to reload, recharge, and survey the damage.*
