Having left its galaxy, a lone planet now drifts towards this one, allowing anyone curious to investigate the unknown. The planet shows traces of civilisation, with hundrets of sattelites surrounding it, and large buildings reaching towards the sky. However, the lack of sunlight, high electromagnetic radiation and black water seemingly killed most live, causing the few surviving plants to cover it's entire surface. Who is brave enough to enter the hazardous environment and search for treasures on this forgotten world?

KrankysFirebrand48 The space around the planet suddenly seems to twist when the ships get closer. A mechanical sounding voice transmission, for some reason in galactic standart, reaches both ships.
/Transmission start/
Warning this planet is under quarantine.
All approaching entities will be fired upon.
/Transmission end/
However, the entire defensive ring seems to stay offline.

      A small expeditionary GSR force arrives at the planet, accompanied by the Kel'Shir...

      (Yes the world looks different, just pretend it doesnt xD)

        boombox Catplayz All ships are greeted with the same transmission as the Vikings.

        /Transmission start/
        Warning! This planet is under quarantine.
        All approaching entities will be fired upon.
        /Transmission end/

        This time a single defensive satellite manages to turn in the general direction of the approaching fleet. The distortion around the planet seems to increase, but it's still unclear whether this is intended or a simple malfunction.

              CursedPh4nt0m
              Automatically the point defense guns of the Vernichters snap to life, aiming at the satellite...
              "Feuer halten..."

              The cannons still wait, it could be unloaded or otherwise a waste of ammunition...

                boombox
                The Kel´Shir vessels stay in formation behind the GSR.

                  boombox Catplayz The satellite seems to charge up, it's barrel now aiming at the Kriegszeppelin. Some other satellitest snap to live too, all aiming at the same target and almost painfully slow charging their weapons. All sensors register a strong energy outburst as the odd distortion around the planet increases even further.

                      CursedPh4nt0m
                      "Feuer!"
                      The cannons open fire, lighting up the sky, able to pierce even NH armor..

                      "Dann schaun wir ma wie diese Blechdosen sich gegen GSR Kanonen halten..."

                        CursedPh4nt0m
                        Some of the Kel´Shir vessels try hacking a few of the satellites, hoping to take control over them.

                          boombox All (somewhat) functioning satellites open fire with the GSR ships, a bunch of them blows up in the process. Hovever, not a single shot hits its target, as the planets entire atmosphere suddenly starts glowing in a blinding white, causing a massive energy outburst and melting the entire defensive ring while (temporary) overloading the systems of smaller ships and fighters.

                          Catplayz
                          The Kel'Shir ships catch some signals, but fail to decode them before all satellites get destroyed. They are hit by the energywave too and suffer only minor casualities thanks to their distance and the GSRs shielding.

                          With the defensive ring gone, the planet now seems ready for investigation. The explosion caused a new problem tho, as the remaining energy would likely overpower the shields of any ship approaching the planet.

                              boombox (Somehow forgot to play my other part... 😅
                              I'm also gonna stick with english for the dialogues, so everyone knows what Michael is saying.)
                              Michael enters the Kriegsreppelins bridge shortly after the attack.
                              "Heck did you just blow up? All you were supposed to do was getting us on the damn planet without unnecessary casualities!"
                              He's obviously nervous. Way too nervous for an AI...

                                CursedPh4nt0m Somewhere, on the planet, a faint hum sounds louder as a blue box slowly fades into existence on a rock.

                                    CursedPh4nt0m the Vikings where watching from a distance and approach the planet in high speeds while a battlecruiser and two liberators warp in

                                          The Vernichters and the Kriegszeppelin stand uneffected, but the Kriegskutter and the transport are knocked out...

                                          The commanding officer salutes.
                                          "Well, it was a planetary defense turret zhat tried to light up our arse."
                                          The Commander seems unphased..
