Massive Energy Surges Coming From the Edge of the Galaxy

Ultranova

The Rebel Light Gunships now focus on the sides of the force, seeing as the ships are fighting horribly there. A few of the Rebel Dropships have been severely damaged, but nothing compared to the loses the other side has received. The Large Transport mows straight through the lot, blowing ship after ship aside

RedAndCosmoteer

Ultranova (Wait, the large transport is simply that powerful?)

But by then it's too late. The gunships have moved the weakest forces back...

And the formation is a circle now.
Plasma cannons and laser turrets open fire with maximum power, superheated matter slamming into the shields of the rebel ships.

(I tested the transport, and against my assault frigate, said frigate caused one hundred forty two thousand credits of damage, whilst sustaining only six thousand.)

Ultranova

RedAndCosmoteer

(The large transport is good for smaller ships, but it makes barely a dent on larger ships)

The Rebels, however, have an ace up their sleeve. The Arrow Fighters all have a small detachment of highly accurate guided missiles, which they fire straight into the barrels of the Plasma cannons. The laser turrets they are less concerned about, since the armour they use is designed to handle Laser blasts.

The Large Transports weapons are silent, since it's a waste of ammo against the Gunships. The Rebel Light Gunships are now focusing on the Gunships, using their Ion beams to plow into them

RedAndCosmoteer

Ultranova Diffusion shields manage to block some of the missiles for the newer ships and shoot down the missiles with point defense.

However, quite a few plasma cannons die.
The gunships use their gatling guns to shred weaker armor of the Rebel Gunships, and destroy some weapons whilst the smaller Eontenvian gunships die out.

The larger fleet ships use their railgun turrets to destroy the armor to get to the weaponry of the Rebel ships, however the Assault Frigate is effectively out of action with the plasma cannons destroyed and laser turrets ineffective.

(My assault frigate shredded the large transport in highly accurate(tm) simulation!)

Ultranova

RedAndCosmoteer

The Dropships act now. They speed towards the gunships and board the ship. The Rebel Commandos quickly and effectively take over one of the gunships and turn it around against the remain ships of the fleet

Rebel Reinforcements ETA = 10 minutes

RedAndCosmoteer

Ultranova (Which ships did you board?

List: one corvette, one prototype generation 2 corvette, one prototype generation two assault frigate, one light cruiser, and a few gunships.)

Ultranova

RedAndCosmoteer The Generation Two Corvette

Rebel Reinforcements ETA = 6 minutes

RedAndCosmoteer

Ultranova Once you board the Generation Two corvette, you run into a brick wall: all of the security forces use gauss weaponry, which can shred armor and you probably only have resistance against lasers.

You managed to obtain plans of the ship, and another brick wall: The four reactors are isolated and you're going to have to cut through the rest of the ship to get to them. Plasma battery delivery is automated too.

However, the bridge is exposed and the AI core's armor can be easily cut through, however there are a few defenses stationed there.

A small security team for a ship this size runs straight into the rebels, gauss weaponry opening up on them. You can probably deal with them without much trouble.
(And yes, i built the ship like that.)

Ultranova

RedAndCosmoteer

The Rebel commandos do like they are trained too. They pull their Laser Swords out and charge the security team. They quickly deal with them and "borrow" the gauss weapons. They quickly backtrack to the Dropship to grab some explosives, then continue on their way to the AI core

Ultranova

RedAndCosmoteer you probably only have resistance against lasers.

The Armour on the rebels is resistance against lasers, but I reckon it could probably take a few gauss shots, but it would end up with the Rebel covered in enough Blood to power a Bloodcult ship for days

RedAndCosmoteer

Ultranova but it would end up with the Rebel covered in enough Blood to power a Bloodcult ship for days

(Now that's a good one.)
(Also, i think you should rename Rebel Commandos to Rebel Ninjas.)

You proceed to a fairly armored AI core, and a few automated turrets plus two small security teams block your way. If you are able to deal with them, you can easily cut through the armor with a good plasma torch.

Many Gauss weaponry such as rifle opens fire on you, but there is cover (hiding in turret control rooms)as the crew are not willing to risk breaking their weaponry..

Ultranova

RedAndCosmoteer (Also, i think you should rename Rebel Commandos to Rebel Ninjas.)

Nah, the Rebels have Assassins, which are like Ninjas, except they have these invisibility devices. So freaky.

The Rebel Commandos split into two groups. One group full on attacks the Security Team, while the other group position themselves in one of the Turret Control Rooms and hurl some grenades over at the Auto-mated turrets.

The attacking group take heavy loses, but the grenade group effectively destroy the automated turrets

Rebel Reinforcements ETA: 1 minute

A tiny ship defolds
//Transmission Start\\
This is CdRMoteer, leader of mixed intelligence, do you request our assistance?
\\Transmission End//

RedAndCosmoteer

Ultranova You now have a clear path to the AI core. You've effectively disabled the ship.

Mind you, there is a self destruct device, so you may have to disable that first...

"WARNING. WARNING. Self destruct in three minutes."

The crew attempt to get to the escape pods.
Meanwhile, you located the self destruct on your map..

Ultranova

RedAndCosmoteer

The Commandos look at it in horror, but one of them gets out his PDA and connects with the device. After executing a few commands, he cancels the Self Destruct order.

Catelyn smh, stop self-premoting 😛

Rebel Reinforcements inbound

RedAndCosmoteer

Catelyn
/transmission start/
YES! WE'RE BEING SWARMED BY REBELS, WE NEED IMMEDIATE ASSIST-
/transmission cut/
The ship is destroyed.

Ultranova You can finally secure this ship for yourself, and reprogram the AI core to attack the other ships!

There is only light to moderate resistance from now on. Also, you may find that if you start to openly attack the allies of the crew, the ship may get destroyed...

Catelyn

Ultranova
The signatures of 2 large craft appear on your sensing devices
//Transmission Start\\
final warning! Quit attacking the Eontenvian fleet, we don't appreciate this behaviour
\\Transmission End//

Ultranova

RedAndCosmoteer

Instead of openly using the ship to attack other ships, they program the AI core to send out an entirely different signature and override the AI cores in the other ships. This takes a while, but is a distraction for the Reinforcements to act on the imposing force

Catelyn No (I feel like a little scumbag being told off by a teacher xD. I have much more fun with the Rebels than the R-UPA 🙂 )

(and yes, I brought a crapton of large ships)
