Here's to You
Position: Northern Siege Lines ; Sith Artillery Batteries
Objective: New Kalandra - Eliminate The Jedi Ambush
Allies: Darth Voyance - The Sith Empire
Enemies: Wyatt Morga ; Lanik Dawnstar [Coordinated] - Jedi Coalition
Equipment:
Sith-Imperial Airborne Armor Mk. III
'Vishnu' Military Shield[Inactive]
HG-88 'Big Iron' Hand-cannon
------------------------------------------------------------
The precision engineered handcannon to which Tavlar had relied upon as his trusted side arm suddenly shattered in his grip. The Officer sounding out a low groan of pain as searing chunks of metal dug into the armorweave underlayer of his armor. There was no time to mourn the gun however, his attention snapping back to the Jedi with hefted shield and lightsaber at the ready.
He'd caught the last Knight in a rare bind which left him with a rather simple and clean kill. At least as clean as it could be, the Duros corpse all but unidentifiable from the neck up as it sat hunched against the reinforced trench wall. Though there was little time for Tavlar to overthink his actions his deeper subconscious harkened back to his martial training. The Sith Imperial academy held its martial roots in a fluid blend of ancient Sith and Imperial aristocratic traditions however his time honing the craft as well as anything else in the entirety of his existence would ultimately be useless if he was cut down from the Jedi's initial cut.
The Jedi flew at him with alarming height and speed, with an inability to match the Jedi's prowess with a lightsaber the war trophy at his side didn't even register as an option. Even if he lacked the honed muscle memory to reach down and ignite it. Matching his opponent in his means would've only been a suicide with a great deal of plasma lit fanfare accompanying it.
Instead of jumping back, or evading to the side ; yet another means to a very swift end, he turned his head down and dove under the jedi as he surged over and just past him, instantly snapping his gaze back to the jedi he reared his right foot back to plant a kick against his inner ankle, the toe mounted vibro knife of his 'Greitis' combat boot activating on impact. If it didn't stab through the duraplast at the very least it dug in well enough to stop the Jedi in his tracks and send him to the mud beneath. If Tavlar was going to win ; or at the very least, survive this encounter, he needed to get him to ground, shut the lightsaber out of the equation.
Anticipating his strike landing the General forced himself from the mud, the movement alone requiring great physical exertion ; perhaps only able to pull himself swift enough due to the better-than-most articulation his blood and mud covered armor sported. From the ground he surged forward, seeking a means to tackle the jedi from behind and send him face first into the mud beneath them.
All the while Jedi bombing runs sent gun emplacements ablaze, scattered across the line before they were forced to evacuate the airspace from crowded anti-aircraft fire. The armored advance continued as per the operational lay-out structured by the Major General. Set in widely spread out panzerkeils they were able to offset the impact of any mortar and artillery strikes, leaving only one or two armored fighting vehicles in each formation knocked out as the others continued their advance. Letting their instruments of death play loudly as they traded fire with the weapon emplacements set on the city's perimeter, mass drivers, turbo-lasers and heavy laser cannons burning into the enemy positions.
