Empty space, beyond the stars

Drakador_Chaos The Coalition admiral disregards the transmission. He fires 50 GMN-48 Nuclear Missiles at the Aegis tile, accompanied by 300 decoys.

Drakador_Chaos Drak, please don't make your stuff too OP. Each one of these missiles carries a 3-gigaton TNT equivalent nuclear warhead. (I know this seems OP, but please consider that this missile volley is over a third of the Coalition's entire arsenal of GMN-48s. We are literally throwing everything we have at you.)

FireShredder24 (The issue is, I have clearly stated an demonstrated just how strong and technologically advanced the Kin/TATC are and they never showed any open aggression, so it technically is the fault of the one who attacks, as they own literally only a single system aswell, which is a considerable way outside of the galaxies boundaries. You don´t just willingly walk into a blackhole either, do you? They are also designed to fight something far further into my storylines. Though as you asked me politely I´ll presume the 5 minutes are not over yet.)
...as the the point defense projectiles hit their targets, they suddenly disappeared, followed by a burst of energy on the sensors, as it apears several defense platforms ahd unclaoked in proximity of the fleet, their surface nearly completely black only interrupted by patterns glowing in a menacing purple, whatever these were, point defense wouldn´t help against them and they seemed to be ready to fire at any given time now...
...in the meanwhile the missiles started hitting while the tile flickered several times indicating that some of the outer shieldlayers of the tile went down for a few moments though the attack was ultimately futile...
...the Admiral looked at the timer, 1 minute 50 seconds left, the TATC still didn´t show any hostility apart of the weird-looking defense installments that were now uncloaked in the surrounding area...

The EL ships move onward under the protective envelope of their stasis and umbrella fields, onboard the ship squads of EL Drones are marching toward the excursion terminals, where they are being issued with personal manifold units

...as the EL-ships plunged themselves into the corresponding shield-tile, the outer layers seemed go down within a matter of seconds, due to the nature of the EL stasis-fields, then, the ship leading the formation was gradually desintegrating until it came to a halt and the rest of it violently detonated, while this apparently disabled the tile for a few minutes, it was unknown to the EL what could´ve cause something like this through a stasisfield, they now saw through the disabled tile that a mid-sized fleet was approaching them from further within, consisting apparently not only of several Tigris-class cruisers, which patterns were glowing in a menacing purple, and lower tiered craft but also of several considerably bigger ships which beared light grey colors with dark grey and golden patterns on them...
...if that wasn´t already enough the former low-power signatures let out a burst of energy on the sensors, uncloaking, showing what was most likely defensive installments, large bipyramidical objects utterly black with only their edges glowing in the same purple as the patterns on the TATC ships...

(Who knows with the EL, though i wouldn't act too powerful around them, they get nervous...)

FireShredder24

Tson (What I'm asking is, if I help you get thru the shields, do I have to worry about getting backstabbed?)

Tson

FireShredder24
(if i told you that it wouldn't be RP, as your commander would not know, i assume he has not come across the EL before)

FireShredder24

Tson (He hasn't, so he decided to jump to the other side of the system. He's not too sure about you guys, but he thinks the EL might help him fight the TATC)

FireShredder24

Drakador_Chaos The admiral opens fire with all MACs on one of the defense platforms, then activates the fleet's FTL and jumps out.

...The rear four ships halt, they are within range now, suddenly the EL troops with manifold units wink out and appear on the Axis-Turia-7 station, three units manifold incorrectly however and immediately become interesting wall decor in one of the corridors, the other 52 however appear in respectively the main control room, a service corridor, a fluids tank and several crew rooms and storage areas, the drones immediately search for targets, and wherever they are attempt to grab hold of any TATC personnel, Declaring "Thisz isz Ever Legion, you are requred for research, do not attempt to resziszt", the EL ships attempt to asses what has happened to the lead cruiser...

...at first the platform seemed to withstand the fire due to what seemed to be excessive shielding and high-quality armor, then it eventually gave in to the constant fire, disappearing in a flash and purple flames...
...the Admiral looked at the timer... "0"
...there was no further transmission, no warning as the defensive installments suddenly opened fire, from the edges of the bipyramidical objects high powered, exotic particle beams were fired, additionally to the beams already high power, the particles seemed to react with the ships internal systems once they breached the hull causing critical internal system backfires across the entire ship...
...they seemed to primarly target reactor cores, ftl drives and ammo factories, though they seemed to prioritize smaller vessels first, the Admiral stared in horror at the destruction that began to ensue on the ships surrounding his leading ship...

FireShredder24

Drakador_Chaos My fleet fired one volley then didn't even wait for the slugs to impact before engaging FTL(the admiral had ordered the FTL to be spun up once the nukes were launched).

...the boarders quickly found out that the stations internal defenses were similarly dense as the ones outside and the personnel didn´t seem to be quite as helpless as they expected, as several bipyramidical objects which were located in rooms all across the station, depending on the size fo the room, began detaching themselves from the walls, while TATC personnel began assuming combat stances while only the guards seemed to be currently equipped with a personal shield, all of them seemed to have several physical enhancements, for example reinforced endoskeletons combined with psychoreactive exo-skeletons, giving them unparalleled reflexes and strenght, guards went into cover while the objects that detached from the walls unfolded revealing heavy defense robots, rooms in which EL boarders were detected began to be encased in a strong magnetic field heavily affecting their plasmareactors and containing them in case of detonation...

(Station defense robots, disclaimer, these have been made using the following game/program: Mecha-dress-up-game )

... in the meanwhile the ships on the outside began being attacked by the defenisve installments both inside and outside the shield, pelting the stasis fields in volatile exotic particles as the fleet started coming into range...
...as they started to evaluate what happened to the lead cruiser, they noticed something rather disturbing in the logs, it appears the frontal hull showed no weapon impact or energy signatures before it suddenly...simply vanished, as they were dropped into another dimension, as it all happened too quick to stop the ship the phenomenon eventually reached the first reactor cores which detonated as parts of them were missing causing chain-reactions across the ship which sealed it´s fate...

--Encountering heavy resisztancze, manifold out--
14 drones go down immediately, and another 25 are taken out as they atttempt their task, the rest manifold out, however two drones manage to corner a guard and one grabs them, before dissapearing, aboard the cruisers the Drones prepare to Manifold out, but as they do so two more of the ships crumple and then detonate, the other two dissapear interestingly the TATC notice that at no point did the EL ships or drones engage TATC forces in combat...

(...Acknowledged.)
...surprisingly as the ships jumped away there seemed to be no interdiction field or similar technology active, they were able to leave as simple as they came, though on the way home they already received message that a message from the TATC arrived at the Coalition, along with a fine of 2.500.000 credits for causing a "political incident" on TATC territory, the fine would have to be paid within one galactic standard month or other "consequences" would follow...

Drakador_Chaos The Coalition fleet didn't go home...

They pulled out of warp in interstellar space ~2 LY from the system.

The Admiral ordered a shuttle to be refitted for Hyperdrone usage. The drone was equipped with the fastest warp drive in the Coalition, able to travel at speeds exceeding 1 trillion times the speed of light(however this is slower than hyperdrives, the warp drive is used because it doesn't have to travel into an alternate dimension to work. The drone was aimed directly at the central station.

The admiral ordered all craft save the hyperdrone to jump out of the system, setting a timer for the activation. Little did he know(@Drakador_Chaos I think this is what you would do), the TATC's Aegis defense system did not possess the fatal flaw of Starkiller base, being that supraluminal objects could pass through shields. The drone shattered off the Aegis tiles, although it disabled many of them for about 10 hours and caused an EMP that severely damaged some of the defense platforms.

In the drone's wreckage floated a hardlight cylinder that contained 2.5 million credits and a message from the admiral that read:

 *Sorry for the inconvenience.*

...as the EL appeared at their target destination, they immediatly noticed something was off, the cryostasis chamber (or at least I´d suppose so according to Echoes of time) the guard was in when they jumped...was severly damaged and their research target...was gone.
Unbeknownst to them the guard was now lying in one of the medical stations of Axis Turia, severly injured, but alive, the Abyssean-personal-tethering-system (APTS) had worked...
( I suppose I´ll dm you what that actually is)

Drakador_Chaos (Just so you know, @Drakador_Chaos , the Coalition has fully disengaged. Don't worry about getting attacked again(not that you would worry, with the tech you have))
