As soon as rifts open a blaring alarm sounds through the whole of the Zeppelin, and the battlestations, already manned and at the ready and loaded, lock their systems in, with scraping and sliding sounds the locking lugs of the breeches in the artillery guns close as the gunners adjust elevation and windage, bringing their guns to bear towards the three cruiser-sized unidentified ships..
Officers run through the tight corridors, barking orders, checking the readiness of the emplacements and turrets.
"FEUER HALTEN! ZIELE SIND NICHT IDENTIFIZIERT!"
As the blaring of the alarm dies down and all battlestations are manned, locked and loaded, an uneasy silence lays itself over the crew and whole ship while on the bridge frantically the data banks are searched for any identification of the squid-like ships.
The Kriegszeppelin, being of the older Hoppenstedt-class, is on the small end of GSR Zeppelins, but it still is a formidable ship, being a bit larger than a light cruiser. Still, if it comes to brute size, they are definitely outgunned right now... and the captain knows that. Uneasily he looks out towards the three vessels before sending off a local broadcast transmission, hoping that on at least one frequency these ships will hear it..
