I say let him go. If you need a Lightsaber Draco carries one he doesn't know how to use.

That seems like a reasonable conclusion. I am fine with that, you Vulp?

[member="Elijah Rekali"] [member="Darth Vulkan"] I missed read his post, don't worry about it [member="Vulpesen"] I will edit in the other thread.



Edit: though vulpesen next time you need me to edit something, I would prefer a pm. The same curiosity I gave you, many times in this invasion.

Yeah... sure... phasing... *cough cough* Thats it. *wipes rubble from my coat*

But I only threw four lightsabers. I held the fifth, and all were absorbed into me when i went fox form.

I only threw four lightsabers

How magnanimous of you.

From your mind set, how did cutting engine power give away the transport's position? It's stealth systems remain active, nothing changes but it's speed.

"Flip the vessel around, unlock the tube doors and use reverse thrusters to ease them out." The Human sputtered something in disbelief, but the Sullustan shrugged and muttered something that sounded confident. The Human glared at his fellow pilot, but sat back from the controls and let his partner take over. The Sullustan slowed the transport, using attitude jets to tip it up onto the nose and flip it backward-facing. After unlocking the tube doors, he used the reverse thrusters to back the vehicle away, causing the missiles to leave their tubes and drift away in the depth of space.

You performed a flip-and-burn, actively using the maneuvering thrusters of the ship to alter the velocity of your shuttle. Even if the ship was doing a particularly good job of blending in with its surroundings, an object suddenly changing velocity like that would produce, at the least, brief readings on sensors. First you slowed your rate of acceleration, then turned, then produced a sudden burst of thrust. To the starfighter pilot, it looked like an asteroid had suddenly decided to slow down for no reason, then accelerate, then disappear from sensors entirely.

Just saw that you two posted. I'll work up a response as quick as I can.

[member="Reshmar"], [member="Gir Quee"], [member="Abigail Selonna"],

How do you want me to respond to [member="James Justice"]'s lack of posting since my last post? I was moving my forces in to attack him, but had left an opening for him to respond to me moving my ships into position before I initiated the attack. Should I initiate the attack and wait for a response again, or should I consider his forces wiped and move on?

It's right there in that quote, actually.

"The Sullustan slowed the vehicle..." ... "...used attitude jets..."

A gradual stop followed by the gentle adjustment with little attitude jets. Nothing about primary thrusters or anything.

It was a very slow maneuver, very quiet; ought to have yielded no notable change.

I actually just caught that. I re-evaluated what that would look like and had edited my OOC post. While it's not as intense of a velocity change as my original interpretation, there's still grounds to detect the sudden changes in velocity. Especially since the ships were so close to your position already.

I didn't get the @mention. >.< sorry. Will find it and make a reply tonight.

 

[Anija Betna]

[member="Jack Raxis"] [member="Travot Ravenna"] I shall post tomorrow. Sorry for the delay. On some medication right now that's just kicking my butt.

Quote from post

Spoiler

Larraq didn't necessarily care that the privateers had decided to start shooting civilian ships. What bothered him was that they had moved into position around Nickel One, and that an encrypted message had just been bounced from the Republic Fleet to the Privateer forces. Whatever their capabilities, Larraq could not risk allowing them to join up with the main Republic Navy. With a sweeping gesture of his hands, Larraq created and adjusted ghost copies of each frigate formation in the asteroid belt, moving them to where he needed them. "I want all forces in the belt to converge on these units around Nickel One." Larraq said as he stood back and tried to picture the engagement from another angle. "Slow down the transport assault to hit them from the front at the same time as the frigates. Move the two central frigate groups to form up with the transports. The four frigate groups on the flanks are to wrap around at best speed and hit the Privateers from the sides. While that's happening, I want the fighters and bombers from both heavy frigate groups to move ahead and strike from the rear." Larraq switched his gaze to the small recording and the data that scrolled below it. "That one's a carrier." Larraq said as the publicly available details on the Tenloss design scrolled below the image. "I want all ships with Vulcan Cannons to focus fire on her hanger doors. If we do this right, we might prevent the bulk of their starfighters from ever coming into play." He spared a moment to watch the map as events unfolded. He waited for confirmation signals to come from each formation and waited for each formation to adjust its course. Once he was sure that his orders had been received, Larraq switched his gaze and attention back to the main Republic Fleet.

"We will hold a line of battle at this position and wait for them to approach. In the meantime... Lets give them a reason to get closer. I want one of the Ulur'uur frigates to broadcast white noise on every frequency. Realspace, subspace, and hyperspace. I don't want a single message coming or going from anyone in the system. And..." Larraq said, pausing for a moment to consider his plans. "I want the broadcasting Ulur'uur frigate to remain in position behind the asteroids."

TLDR

Every Mandalorian Frigate, Corvette, Starfighter, Bomber, Transport, exc is maneuvering to surround James Justice's fleet and attack from all sides at once. (except top and bottom)
Primary Mandalorian Fleet re-organized into a line of battle. 1 Concordia on either end, Skira in the center, everything else mirrored along either side.
One of the Ulur'uur Frigates has begun broadcasting white noise on every available frequency On one frequency in particular, a video of a young Hutt singing and dancing was heard instead of white noise.

I'll have a reply up for you tomorrow. My apologies for the wait.

 

[Falcon Rekali]

Sorry, [member="Mantic Dorn"], [member="Ember Rekali"] - I'll have to delay my post to before work in the morning.

[member="Captain Larraq"]

Yeah,that's weird I didn't get any @Mentions from this thing.... at all. ok, working on drumming up a reply right now.

Posted! Larraq's offering you money to turn on the Republic, or less money to simply pick up your toys and leave.
Granted... the Republic would have gotten the message too. So, if you choose to stay and fight, they'd probably give you reward money for your bravery (likely more than Larraq was offering).

Whichever of the three choices you pick, you'll probably be able to count said choice as a Contract with a Major Faction or a Tier 6 Company.

[member="Captain Larraq"]

Dude.... your a godsend. Your a saint. For reals. Lol, I was going to use this to help start us getting to Tier 4; that contract as well would cinch it.

 

[Mantic Dorn]

No worries.

Especially since the ships were so close to your position already.

I can buy that if you're okay with just adding a mention to the damaged portions of the ship's nose, where the stealth systems are not operating properly, and would have been angled toward your vessels for that period of time. I hadn't thought of that before, but was one reason I included it; so the ship was entirely unnoticeable. It sounds meager but makes the most sense to me; if the ship is entirely stealthed, then picking up on its velocity changes won't be possible, but if the system isn't working to cover 100% of the ship that's a more viable find in my view.
