It's Not Possible!!!

[Stellar_Magic]

I started a game last night as the Rebels. I'd relocated my entire fleet to the Alliance capital. Leia Organa is there recruiting people (I've replaced Mon Mothma with her) anyway I'm playing and suddenly to my horror day 62 rolls around and an Imperial fleet arrives over my capital. They've got a force that would make the Emperor proud 51 Victory Star Destroyers, 12 Imperial Star Destroyers, and 8 Dreadnaughts. If you were listening you'd hear my jaw hit the floor. I instantly know what happened my Headquarters was placed on a colonized world so the Imperials would know where it was. Dumb randomizer.

 

I'm desperate enough to launch the collective alliance fleet at the attackers. 11 Bulk Cruisers, 2 Alliance Escort Carriers, 13 Corvettes, and 8 Medium Transports. I manage to destroy two ISDs but am completely eliminated by the sheer firepower of all those star destroyers. Within moments all my ships are burning hulks. I hadn't installed two orbital platforms yet so I found that the next day they invaded. Leia was captured and the headquarters was destroyed! The alliance also doesn't have any ships available at all.

 

The Alliance is now desperately trying to build up the ships it needs to defend itself from destruction. Unfortunately it takes the allies over a hundred days to build enough ships just for patrol duty. In that time the Empire has succeeded in completely demolishing six alliance worlds. Whats funny about this? It's all because of my mod that I'm being summararily pulverized. Maybe my mod has turned frankenstein on me.

Your TC is always cofusing me.....how you do it ?!

[Stellar_Magic]

If I could only figure out how to post it....Could you please explain.

[Stellar_Magic]

I've decided to retell what happened in story form

 

Thousands of kilometers above the peaceful wolrd of Nich'ollin III a ship leapt into existance, its blocky grey and black surfaces gleaming in the starlight. The Bulk Cruiser Warsprite slowly began to descend into the atmosphere. As it dropped through the outer layer of clouds a pair fo X-wings screamed into escort positions. Ahead through the white clouds the distant mushroom shape fo the Rebel Headquarters was visible. Slowly the bulk cruiser drifted toward the city and slowed for a moment then slid into a giant docking collar.

Inside the Warspite Princess Leia gazed out at the circling squadrons of starfighters. With a hiss the docking collar released and she stepped into the crowded hangar bay. There a tall blond man waited for her, "Princess Leia, this way please."

"Leia glanced at the man's rank badge, "Commander Lorena?"

The man nodded, "Yes Princess, I've been assigned as your personal assistant, welcome to the Headquarters." Within moments a team of Rebel Fleettroopers marched out to flank them, "As you can see we've deployed a large number of troops here to protect the capital, we have one orbital platform, we hope that within the next few days we'll be able to build an additional one."

Leia followed the Commander to a large broad room where a rotating holographic display of the world hovered in the center. She took a moment to study the display seeing the green icons of starfighter squadrons trolling the space above the world. Suddenly a series of eight starfighter flight leapt onto the display heading for the planet. She recognized the call sign of the squadrons, Rogues and Champions, the two squadrons that had just fought at Yavin. She looked to the Commander who was watching her, "Commander Skywalker and Commander Antilles are not with them, they've been assigned to the Orus Sector."

"What about our fleet? Where are they?" Leia asked glancing up at the projector.

"All fleet units have been recalled, and Yavin has been evacuated, they'll be here with the hour, ah there they are now," The Commander said as a series of starships leapt out of hyperspace. Slowly they begant o form up in a ring around the world. Suddenly an alarm began to sound in the chamber, "Eradu station at the edge of the system reports multiuple contacts."

A voice filled with both fear and static was heard, "Look at the size... we have multiple Imperial Starships on approach fifty-one I repeat fifty-one Victory Star Destroyers." The static increased as the thrumb of weapons fire hitting the station came through the speakers, "Twelve Imperial Star Destroyers and Eight Fondor Dreadnaughts."

The Commander keyed the console, "All Alliance forces you are to engage the enemy in a delaying action while we prepare to evacuate..."

Leia looked at the Commander, "What can I do?"

"Head for the Warspite and try and get out of here..." The commander stopped when he saw the sour expression on Leia's face.

"This is command Warspite is to join the alliance fleet."

"This is Captain Revac where moving to engage, the enemy is launching fighters." Leia glanced up at the display as the two fleets collided the green and red blasts of energy crossed between the ships. Suddenly one of the Imperial Star Destroyers detonated followed by another. The Alliance force was swarmed by Ties ships began to explode as lasers found their mark. "We've suffered heavy casualties moving around, shields are down, we're trying to ahhh!" The voice cut off in a shower of static as the last alliance ship exploded from the concentrated fire of hundreds of turbolasers. Leia saw red blips begin to drop from the star destroyers. A pair fo Victory Star Destroyers had begun their descent into the atmosphere. The Commander turned to Leia, "Go get out while you can!"

The headquarters building rocked as dozens of blasts hit the city. Leia ran down the halls and suddenly found herself cornered. There before her lining the hallway we're stormtroopers. Before she could do anything she saw the blue bolts reach for her and knew blackness.

 

Yeah, something like that.

Is it possible to set up some sort of proper stories section with phpBB?

[Stellar_Magic]

A section just for writers Yes, I have a home now...

 

"Not bad eh?"

"Impressive, most impressive but you are not a Jedi (Writer) yet."

"Laugh it up fuzzball."

 

Maybe we could put such a forum under outside interests or gaming stories it does say fanfic...

 

The grenade lights flashed three times over the primary repulsorlift as the stormtrooper flattened himself against the wall. The bomb exploded and the Stormtrooper jeyed his comm, "This is TK-892 mission accomplished this city is dead." The stormtrooper ran to his fellows as the floor began to tip. The headquarters was falling from the sky.

[ElvisMiggell]

No i meant almost like another downloads section... or like the reviews section.

Unfortunately my Yahoo mail account has a limitation of 3 Encoded Mbs, and the load settings file itself fully compressed by WinRar is still to big to be attatched, I've got to find some way to make it smaller. Stupid YAHOO!

[Stellar_Magic]

Since their initial setback the rebels have begun a campaign to take back control of the Galaxy. It's day 460 and the Sluis, Farfin, and Sesswenna sectors have fallen to the rebels with the exception of Coruscant which is currently guarded by the fleet I posted in "The largest fleet ever topic" I have a grand total of eight Maraudar Corvettes, six Medium Transports, two Quasar Fire Cruisers, three Rendili Dreadnaughts, and four Mon Calamari Cruisers. For some reason the Empire has been content to just sit there, of course right now I'm worried about that fleet over Coruscant getting an Interdictor and coming after me.

 

Ooppss I forgot, every other sector then the three I named is under Imperial control!!!

[ElvisMiggell]

Yeah i'd be pretty woried by that!!!

[Stellar_Magic]

Worried, how bout terrified Of course the way the Mod I'm using is set up the Empire tends to be really slow on building Cap Ships, so it may be awhile. They do love to build ATRs, Corvettes, Gaelleons, and the little stuff. I've seen tons of smaller ships. I've destroyed a couple convoys of those vessels though eight-ten Gaelleons and Corvettes here, five or six there. I'm still worried the AI will launch a counter offensive, or even worse capture Luke, this is going to get ugly.

 

A dozen swift X-wings strafed the dorsal surfaces of the Corvette. Flames rose from dozens of places across the hall. Atmosphere leaked from each impact and the craft began to tumble. Commander Skywalker turned to Admiral Ackbar, "Corvette 76 Destroyed Admiral."

 

"Good, maneuver your fighters to engage that Carrack, the MC80s Hope and Excalibar will support," Ackbar answered from the command chair he heaved a sigh, "Keep the hyperspace engines on idle."

 

The Carrack Cruiser 69 or the "Balmorra Rose" was hammered by a volley of torpedoes and a trio of Y-wings shot by its flight path. Red turbolaser blasts shot into the ship's side vaporizing bulkheads, blasting away turbolaser batteries. The Carrak fought back unleashing a storm of laser fire. Luke watched as a bolt caught an X-wing that was to slow to evade. Suddenly a bright light flashed from the Carrack's rear and the vessel exploded sending debris and flames showering across the system.

 

An alarm began to blare aboard the bridge of the Liberty and a Mon Calamari Sensor operator yelled to Ackbar, "Three ISDs and supporting vessels on attack vector.

 

Ackbar glanced toward Luke with one eye, "That won't be the only task force on its way, withdraw to Selonia, there we'll be able to take stock of the situation. All units proceed to hyperspace points!"

 

Yeah, the rebels are doing hit and run, I run whenever anything approaching a large force shows up, I can't afford to loose a single capital ship.

Ah the joys of limited economy!!!

[Stellar_Magic]

The struggle for freedom finds a large trap...

 

Admiral Ackbar stood smiling or as close to smiling as his aquatic face could manage, "Reports from the front continue to pour in. We estimate that with the continued loss of a manufacturing base the enemy will no longer be a viable fighting force over Coruscant. We estimate their strength to be made up of no more then two hundred ships...most of them freightors or transports." A holographic projector rose from the center table and displayed the crisscrossed surface of Coruscant. Slowly a fleet of red colored warship materialized showing the Imperial force. Ackbar cleared his throat, "Our next operation will be the capture and occupation of the Imperial capital world of Coruscant. For this purpose we have assembled the entirety of the Rebel Combat fleet, Ninety one Capital ships and over 4,000 fighter squadrons. With this force we will be able to strike a decisive blow against the Empire."

 

Luke slowly raised a hand from his seat in the back, "Isn't this force to small to conduct this strike, isn't this premature?"

 

Ackbar nodded, "Normally I would agree with Commander Skywalker's assessment, but events have transpired to force our hand. The empire has begun rushed production of the Interdictor class cruiser, if we allow them to begin deploying such forces before a decisive battle we will no longer be able to continue our campaign of hit and run attacks on the Empire." Ackbar punched a button on his datapad and the Image of two people whom Luke was very familiar with appear, "Recent intelligence indicates the empire has moved both Princess Leia and Mara Jade to Coruscant for debreifing."

 

Luke nodded as Ackabr finished his briefing. An attack was both logical and needed. The Alliance had managed to secure a large swath of the core, but the outer systems remained under Imperial control. Alliance attempts to rescue Leia Organa had failed miserably, with many killed or injured.

 

* * *

 

The Alliance force leapt out from hyperspace adn Luke gazed out over the scene as the Rebel fleet formed up, their starfighters deployed and ready for battle. Ahead Luke could see the Imperial fleet and felt an icy fist close over his heart, "Sensors get me a ship count."

 

The officer looked up at Luke his face now ashen colored, "Sir their 471 enemy ships moving to engage." The floor bucked slightly, "They've powered up a gravity well...we're dead sir."

 

Ackbars calm voice flooded across the comm, "Sensors locate the Interdictor, make it our primary target." He nodded slowly, "Once it is destroyed all ships will then disengage and head for Balmorra to regroup." Ackbar glanced at Luke, "I've just made the greatest blunder of my career."

 

No need to explain what happened.

 

The Alliance forces were decimated, Luke was captured and the game was over.

 

STUPID, STUPID, STUPID!!!!
