Alfraks
(It literally projects a particle wall with a density low enough that normal speed ships can pass through, but as you know, hitting anything at FTL speeds is catatrophic, even just energised particles)

This GSR Fleet FTLs unnoticed into a part of the sector pretty far from the firghting, outside of weapon range, even outside of sensor range.

How many fighter craft in total? (Assuming they are heading for my fleet because of the whole FTL jammer situation causing your fleets problems)

//I wouldnt bother sending out strike craft... They might meet their end rather soon at the hands of ours...//
Many more scanner contacts flash up, presumably as the "carrier" of this fleet launches fighters and bombers. Said contacts assume defensive positions.
//Squadron leader Vyrees, our spies inform us, will be little match for our forces. We know our enemy. Perhaps you know who I am, but that isn't of consequence. Then again, our fleet's insignia not causing you to run at first sight makes me think you might inflict some damage, unlike most.//

boombox

ImTired
(nah, why would I?)

ImTired

boombox You said "yeah, we're firing on Thrawn for attacking our allies", when he asked if you were firing on his ships, which in English typically means you are firing on his ships.

EpicJp21

boombox But the beacon is with them...

EpicJp21

ImTired Yea we haven't even attacked yet

If this wasnt RP with 4th wall comments that could have been catastrophically misinterpreted...

EpicJp21
(No, the beacon was put in the rubble where Alfraks was and you moved to alfarks old position...right?)

boombox

EpicJp21
