Here's the briefing: 12Stardate 51120.5: "Join the Cause," Part 1, by Jester. [19:33] *** DJ is now known as EN2tcDJ 12SUMMARY: After a suspicious Jaunt drive accident, Coro finds herself 2 billion light-years from home, 5000 years in the past... 12U.S.S. Coronado was on what should have been a routine mission, Jaunting back to ancient Greece to complete the historical mission begun several weeks ago. During the Jaunt, however, the ship's Red Alert sounded, and an intense gold light surrounded the ship. The normally smooth Jaunt became full of vibrations. * LCARS ACTION:: 12The automatic klaxon sounds as the ship's alert status changes to 4,1 red 12. 12For a few seconds, the ship appeared to "leave" normal space and enter some kind of hyperspace bubble. When the ship came out of the Jaunt, sensors determined that the ship was in galaxy D7, over 2 billion light-years from home, and 5000 years in the past. The ship emerged near three wedge-shaped starships... one of those ships has tractored Coro and hailed her. 4DAMAGE REPORT: Warp drive and Jaunt capability destroyed. Main power off-line. Long range sensors inoperative. Structural damage and minor hull breaches on several decks. 18 casualties, 0 dead. Main phasers operating on limited power only. Shields at 70%. Anti-matter reserves at 98%. Torpedo stores: 300 quantum, 75 photon. Please acknowledge when you've read it. :) [19:34] ack [19:34] ack! [19:34] ack [19:34] ack.

[19:43] ::looks up:: Sounds like these so called Rebels are enemies of the ships that have us tractored Captain Aldur?

[19:45] ::watches his console change colors and status displays:: [19:45] Teams 4 and five! Work on the phaser array! * CPCO_Aldur 12ACTION:: The Imperial tractor emitter, one of 10 on that monster, is destroyed. [19:45] ::steps to the viewing module of his bridge:: This ship... If we could liberate it from those Destroyers... [19:45] +taps+ Toran, shall we attack? [LCARS SOUND] [19:46] 1 and 3! Off to torpedo launchers! [19:46] Oh..how..unfortunate. [19:46] * Mouse struggles to her knees and says to the guard at the door "Fight back, you wan'allof us ta die?! [19:46] XO Calgone> Sir... That'd be taking an awful risk [19:46] oh... [19:46] Colonel I suggest that once we break free we get to the spectares * CPCO_Aldur 12ACTION:: A few moments later, the three SDs open fire on the Coronado, lasers only. It's like being attacked by an army of midgets with pushpins. The individual attacks are not significant, but taken in concert... [19:46] ((he he he- nice analogy 9;D)) [19:46] 2! Stay here! We'll wait for the damage reports to come in. Evasives! [19:46] ((eep! Lost one!! 8:D)) Lehman, bring us around, target engines and weapons! [19:46] ::turns to Vansen:: Major... those ships are bigger than anything Starfleet has ever assembled, short of a space station. The Spectres will not likely be of much use... [19:46] ::accesses the comm system:: Hold on that, pilot... Assemble into formation... Fraser, fire at will! Phasers only! [19:46] +taps+ aye [LCARS SOUND] [19:46] ::mutters something and transfers power to sheild generators, ready to go:: [19:47] * Mouse signs and sits back down "Fine, ignore me. Let all'o us die." [19:47] ::analyzes:: sir, their weapons complement is laughable; only in concert are the a threat, and their range is..negligible compared to ours. Lasers! ::laughs heartily:: [19:47] ::fires Phasers:: [19:47] ::manuvers into V formation:: * LCARS ACTION:: 12The Coronado's phasers lash out, striking the target. [19:47] * Mouse coughs [19:47] ::fires Phasers again and again:: * LCARS ACTION:: 12The Coronado's phasers lash out, striking the target. [19:47] Colonel I dissagreee with you. They are more manouverable and are clearly faster in warp than those three ships [19:47] Fleet commander Aroon> All ships, we're going to move in to assist the unknown vessel... [19:47] If they have lesser range, I recommend getting out of it... now. 12ACTION:: The Coronado's phasers seem to skitter along an invisible deflector shield for a few seconds, but then cut through and score. [19:47] ::taps frantically, evening out power distrinution:: [19:47] Aye Commander [19:47] ::nods:: yes sir ::turns the ship around to face their opponents and positions the ship at the engines and weapons of the first ship:: [19:47] ::pushes the torp off of his foot himself:: Never wanted to be flat footed [19:47] ::Looks at Vansen, then away:: Disagreement noted, Major. [19:47] mentions that the unknown enemies shields..leave something to be desired. Once again, sadly to late to help the Imperials [19:48] * Mouse groans and lays back down on her side [19:48] Sir... They have deflectors that are bouncing phaser fire for the first few seconds. [19:48] ::pulls up a display:: Captain, I think I've foind the bridge structure...Perhaps we should target it [19:48] Fleet commander Aroon> Fighter and cruiser wings will move towards the Imperial Star Destroyers and lay down a series of repressive bombardments as a distraction... [19:48] ::continues to analyze the enmy ships [19:48] ::paces back and forth anxiously:: [19:48] ::programs target for attack:: 12ACTION:: The Coronado's weapons are effective, but the ships are so large that the overall damage appears only moderately significant. [19:49] ::Gets Up:: Captain Incomming Fighter craft! [19:49] :;in between patients wonders where Blaze is:: [19:49] oh dear... Shields at 44%! 12ACTION:: A moment later, the Coro is surrounded by several dozen small one-person fighters. [19:49] Fleet commander Aroon> Annox Odeen, Condor One, prepare to penetrate the offensives... And resuce that ship! [19:49] * Mouse feels the ship rock [19:49] ::comm:: At once, sir! [19:49] ::studies the Tac readouts on his own console, amazed that something so large would be so completely unprotected:: Damn! It's like being attacked by bugs! Lehman, get us some distance! [19:49] ::leaps onto the main table and works to re-route power to the shields:: [19:49] * Mouse sighs and stares at the celing [19:49] we need a can of bug spray [19:49] here we go again..... [19:50] Ahh... now there are some targets. Major, get to the bay - you have your wish. [19:50] perhaps one area intensity torpedo would relieve us of these biting fleas [19:50] Helm, lay in attack course... Weapons stations, arm protons and laser turrets... Prepare to attack! Fraser, aft torpedoes as we clear! Target engines! [19:50] ready Commander! [19:50] Yes Colonel [19:50] Aye sir [19:50] ::monitors the tube:: [19:50] +taps+ All MArines Get to figter Bay [LCARS SOUND] [19:50] ::continues loading torpedos using the Anti-Grav lift:: [19:50] Vansen - take Stuart with you... he is one of our best pilots. [19:50] * Mouse looks at the guard [19:50] shouts in triumph! [19:50] ::Leaves Chair:: Stuart Your With Me Good idea, Colonel, but tell your people to watch the numbers. It's several dozen against six Spectres. [19:50] Engage Commander? [19:50] Aye, sir [19:50] yeah, you can go ta hell too. Some hospitality [19:50] ::sighs with relief:: yes sir ::takes the ship and starts out at impulse power to try and get some distance betwwen them and the Imperial Star destroyers:: [19:50] XO Calgone> I really, really don't like this, Commander... [19:50] My Lord..their shields..cannot stop a transporter lock on! [19:50] ::follows Vansen:: [19:51] ::Enters TL:: Fighter Bay [LCARS SOUND] [19:51] ::fires torpedoes:: * LCARS ACTION:: 12The Coronado fires a torpedo, which streaks toward its target! 12ACTION:: Two Star Destroyers turn... several new ships appear in the holographic tank. [19:51] ::comm:: You're good to go, Alpha... [19:51] Verily, we can pluck their comamnders away at out lesiure [19:51] Aye [19:51] ::engages to target:: [19:51] ::Exits TL and Enters Fighter Bay:: 12ACTION:: The third is caught by the Coronado's torpedoes... they strike the enormous ship's engines and explode, knocking out most of them. [19:51] Perhaps a marine strike [19:51] Fleet commander Aroon> Frigate wing, make your attack now! [19:51] ::appears within The Coro's visual range:: [19:51] ::comm:: Acknowledged! [19:52] ::Hops into Spectare:: [19:52] Aye!, let's rock! [19:52] ::sees the status indicators light up across the top of his console as the Spectres are warmed up:: [19:52] ::goes to a console and taps with brutal force:: [19:52] their ships weaponry may be taken as an example of their personal weapons most liley [19:52] ::leaps over a fallen support beam:: [19:52] * Mouse pushes her ribs experimentally to see how badly damaged they are, and then winces in pain [19:52] ::Launch's Spectare:: [19:52] Target the weapons of the Interdictor and fire at will! [19:52] Captain, we should stagger 50 or so quantom torpedos all across each ship 12ACTION:: Two smaller ships, roughly the size of Galaxy-class ships, move in to the area the SDs evacuate.
