Hania could watch the battlefield from her holo table in the back of the bridge. The last member of their heavy fleet had been destroyed, the situation was grim, but it wasnt the end yet. The Asssimilator had finally risen, after 2 decades, from its natural tomb on Yashinda. Her grandfather’s flagship from the time of the Hegemonian war would serve greatly her fleet now. But for now, she had a battle to command.
“Praetor, incoming bomber squadron”
“We dont have pd for that, we should pull back our screen!”
“If we pull back they will be anihilated… contact the Assimilator, see if Revan has fighters to spare, keep our lancer screen close, order them to start evasive manouvers.
“Incoming fire!”
The Yoshiaki shook as hundreds of railgun slugs finally reached its shield after crossing the void for minutes.
“Minimal damage but these were not the heavy shells, and they are not stopping.”
”Can we intercept them?”
“I doubt out turbolasers would hit them, but it could be attempted, but would divert over half our firepower from the enemy fleet.”
…
”Do it. All heavy turbolasers, fire to intercept the larger shells, all others, keep the pressure on the fleet!”
It was hard to assess the effectiveness, but some turbolasers hit the incoming shells, destroying or at least decreasing their speed and thus strengh. But that was the lucky shots, most fell short or missed entirely. Dozens of heavy shells hit the shield, making the ship shake again. The shelling was constant, and the shields were beggining to overload.
“We cant keep this for much longer.”

The ventral hangar doors opened, as well as many smaller hangars on the side, unleashing waves of hundreds of droid TIE Predators, equipped with the best AI and all the good stuff. They speed ahead in immense speed, attemping to intercept the incoming bombers and joining the fighter screen.
