They weren't finished yet. With the help of Tranquility and her ISB division, the Zweihander Union had been able to pinpoint the exact location of the pirate fortress. "Lets finish this. Alert our ground team to prepare. They'll be deployed shortly. I want fighters to escort them in case we recie-" SIR! Incoming ships. Hostiles closing in!" Ben nodded. "Let the battle continue. General Mike and Surface Marshal Corcad, assemble you men and vehicles and meet in the hangers. You are to deploy shortly."

Red stood on the bridge of the captured pirate command ship. Multiple friendly soldiers and Navy members were there, working at consoles. After cutting through enemy forces and taking out the security systems protecting the bridge, Red managed to secure it. Then, Red sent out the message that the ship was theirs, and friendly reinforcements arrived. Now, friendly forces were searching through the ship, searching for pirates, equipment, and making note of all of the stuff in the ship. They were setting up in the ship. Red had blown through the defenders,, and most of the pirates had abandoned ship and escaped to their surface base. Red opened his holo-communicator and activated it. "Admiral Craig, sir, the pirate ship is ours. We have full control of it now. Mission accomplished. The ship is now in our hands. Do I have permission to finish my mission and deploy myself down to the battle on the ground and capture the pirate leader?" Red asked.

"Sir, incoming enemy vessels" Flight General Akto-Bar screamed. The Wrath of Achilles had become a center piece of the Zweihander Armada, being responsible for the destruction of more than it's share of enemy vessels.

Tristan himself had only recently arrived aboard the ship and was only able to because of the confusion and mass hysteria of the pirate force following thier retreat. "General V'Trechen, Surface Marshal Milhas, the 107th Attack Battilon has made contact with the local forces. The Southern Continent of the planet has agreed to deploy a force of sea based warships to provide cover support but it will do very little. Hell, they'll just be guns in water. We have three ground based Covenant Hypervelocity Cannons near our staging ground. Make good use of them. Ben, let's give 'em hell"

As soon as he finished speaking, Akto-Bar began screaming launch orders. In a myriad of activity, 40 Squadrons of fighters were unleashed on the enemy fleet while 10 Squadrons of Trooop Transports were launched carrying the forces of the General and the Marshal.

"Concentrate fire on the largest vessel in the enemy fleet. It's no doubt the command ship of their futile resistance"

Leenic sat in low-atmospheric orbit above where the pirate fortress was, too high for sensors but just low enough that he could accurately see the terrain around it. He listened in on the radio communications from his allies in the Zweihander Union and took a bite out of the MRE stick he had been snacking on. "Admiral, couldn't help but hear Red's request." He said into the mic. "But if you approve it, I can be of assistance in deploying him and some troops. My ship is nearly indestructible."

"Red Giants"

Ground Forces: Sparks, Embers, Flints, F-1a Droids, Red Giant Heavy Infantry
Infantry Equipment: Judicator Reactive Carapaces, Jury Voidbourne Carapaces, Negotiator Pistols, Tranquilizer Carbines
Navy Force: 3 Gravis Heavy Cruisers, 6 Preserver Frigates, Commandant Corvettes, N-1 Hawks
Groundside support: Commandant Corvettes (Superheavy gunship/dropship role), N-2 Owls

Mission: Crack the pirate base

Ground Combat Part 1: Tip of the spear

The fleet boomed into system, fighters dropping out of hyperspace still in formation and with weapons loaded. Chris transmitted from the lead corvettes "Cruisers Yunna's Dawn and Blooded Sire you are cleared to mop up the enemy fleets, frigates keep in escort and kill those fighters. Corvettes, Owls, ready for ground attack. Cruiser Jottun's Wrath load all missile tubes with bunker buster and HE and make for low orbit to prepare for bombardment support."

Diving through anti aircraft fire transports landed the armoured vehicles of the Red Giants, missiles from the Jottun's Wrath screaming into the pirate's fortess. The landing site was sheltered from the gaze of the fortress by a large outcropping, though mortar rounds occasionally impacted nearby. The bulk of the light and medium tanks were formed into a "wall" between where the force had landed and where the fortress was retaliating. Chris sorely wished that the Armageddon-Class land battleships weren't still under construction on Nothmir. "Red Giants, make ready for a probing assault. I want Flint tanks forming the tip of the spear with infantry and Embers for weight, if you come under heavy fire infantry will fall back under covering fire and regroup at the landing zone. This is fairly open ground so don't turtle your way arround."

The Scout Trooper · Apr 30, 2020

The frigate was taken with minimal causalities though his own armor was starting to wind down as soldiers around him were replacing power cells across his power armor. Looking over at the terminal, he would note the unique drop pod in the bay as he stared at it, tapping at it with a free hand.

"Call in Haon, tell him I found my payment."

The soft whining hisses be heard as the clanks would be heard as the power armors battery was fully restored. Motioning for some of the troops to come with him, they would start shuffling down towards the hanger bay as several fighters would still be there and a lot of them were destroyed. Going near one of the deployment areas, he would tap in the access code as it slowly opened up a large area of drop pods that were rather large. Walking up a large railing, they would enter one of the pods as they went into some access control room. Strapping in along with several troops, two would man as gunners as the Scout Trooper himself would man the piloting station.

"Scout to Control, deploy Pod Four Four."

There was a whine in the hanger bay and within a few seconds, they started to drop towards the planets surface. Those Pirates were going to soon have a nasty surprise waiting for them as they started the vehicles weapon systems as the gel started to harden on the inside.

"Open fire! All Hypervelocity Cannons prepare to fire on Mark 004 Quadrant 1A. Firing Solution Alpha. Megamaser Batteries 27 through 230 prepare continuous barrage on the incoming frigates. Pound thier shields. Relocate Shield Wing 09 to cover our left flank"

In a flurry of motion the orders were understood. Four massive armor piercing Hypervelocity Cannons fired in a standard solution, killing the enemy command ship. To the left, the Megamaser Cannons were working miracles, firing nonstop shots of super heated plasma. The Kyber Focused Long Range Turbolaser Cannons were tearing apart the enemy vessels before they even came into range. The battle in space was going perfectly.

Meanwhile...

General Arlash Cari
Commander, Unified Schesan Army

General Cari was getting tired of hit and run tactics. The enemy from the sky was resourceful and powerful however, it seemed the enemy from space also had enemies...from space. It was confusing and the governments were scared. !any of the civilian population had been evacuated to the nuclear bunkers. Of course, that was the places where the nuclear winter hadn't settled in. There, vast almost impenetrable fortresses designed for long term settlement had been erected following the unification wars.

General Cari was only scared that those fortress weren't as impenetrable as they were supposed to be. So, he would need help both attacking the enemy and defending the fortress cities.

"Attention Warships. This is High General Arlash Cari, Commander in Chief of the Schesan Unified Army. Your assistance in defeating the dreaded enemy armada is most appreciated. However, we require you assintice in protecting our civilian population. Respond, over"

"Sir message from commander Red." Ben nodded. "Excellent job Red, I'll see to it that you are handsomely rewarded. And yes you have permission to go to the surface." Ben turned away and looked out the viewports, "Give em' hell indeed Tristan. Commodore, send squadrons two through six into battle. Leenic you have permission to wreak havoc." "Sir incoming fleet from sector three! It appears to be the Nothmiro Federation." Ben smiled, "They're assisting. Call out to their leader, Chris, nice to see you finally join the party!" The starfighters blitzed around the enemy starfighters and frigates. The bombers running runs on the corvettes. "Sir ground forces are in the hanger and ready to deploy." Ben nodded giving the signal. Four assault shuttles left the hanger with an accompanying escort of fighters.

"Incomming transmission from Shesan Unified Army." Ben walked over, "Copy that General, i will divert a unit to your assistance, it would be wise however to evacuate any citizens near the proximity of the fortress, it may get nasty. Over."

Kren sat quietly in wait for the descent for landing on the planets surface. He was functionally useless in space combat. Unless they needed a medic. If it were an emergency he might man a gunner position, but that was...questionable. It wasn't that he wasn't fond of technology, it was just...weaponized technology was strangely uncommon on his world for a place that had such a root in science. Then again, their choices always revolved around advancing biology, not weaponry.

He'd deal with his limitations, he wasn't hired to be a pilot. He was hired for this exactly. So he'd do his job. Kren was preparing himself, he had stretched already. Now he was simply reserving his strength, and preparing his Vo. Soon would come battle. And with battle would come challenge. At least, he hoped. That was the only reason he was out here afterall. If there was no challenge, there was no point. He wasn't here for glory. Not among humans or these kinds at least. He was here to test his worth.

"Sir they're deploying ground forces. We also have reports that they have reinforcements arriving. "Are our ground forces in position?" The officer nodded, "Good, they will surely win the space battle, but lets see how well they are on the ground. They wouldn't dare bombard the planet either, my guess is the Schesan Unified army leader has contacted them."

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Admiral Jovesk had been quickly woken from his slumber. Apparently some scum dared to challenge the pirate lord. They would be unequiocally destroyed. "Deploy fighters." They had taken heavy casualties already the enemy fighters swarming the several ships Jovesk commanded. "No matter, we shall kill them like flies. All ships target the ship deploying all those flies.(

Red nodded at Admiral Craig's response. "Yes sir, we will deploy at once." He then switched over to a channel connected to Leenic. "Leenic, good to hear from you. Come to my position, and land in the hangar. And let me know if you know where Kren is, we could use him." Red told him. He then turned on the ship's intercom system. "To any available ground troops, head to the hangar immediately, we are deploying to the surface." He told them. The ship would stay behind with the Zweihander fleet, helping in the space battle. Red left the bridge, and walked down the hallways. Alarms started going off as the ship begun to fight against the pirate forces. Red continued down the hallways, passing crew members and troopers. The pirates were putting up one hell of a fight, Red had to give them that, at least. Still, in the end, it would be futile, they were already being crushed in space, it was only a matter of time before the ground forces were overwhelmed, too.

Red arrived in the hangar. Multiple troop transports were waiting, getting ready to head to the surface. Troopers, pilots, crewmen, and technicians ran left and right, getting ready. Red stood there, waiting for Leenic to arrive.

Queen zips out of hyperspace to orbit above Schesa. "Hmmm. Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. We're late." Dasead moves to direct the driods maning the ship, "Zeus! Take us into atmosphere, sensor scramblers and shields on high. I'll need a second to start turning the tide of this battle. Hold fire until my order."

Dasead takes the lift down to his custom battle meditation chamber below the command bridge. Damned shipyards took forever on this order, now he's late to his first bit of action with the Union. Embarassing. Dasead exits the lift swiftly and takes a seat, calming himself by controlling his senses and focusing on the battle raging below. He feels the ship rumbling as it nears closer to the planets surface, his vision of the field becomes clear. Reaching out through the force, he seeks to enter the enemy's minds and make them doubt their chances at victory. These feeble pirates shouldn't be hard to overwhelm, he thought.

Ben clasped his hands behind his back. "Deploy all squadrons. Lets see how they like their own medicine. Swarm them." A quick nod and Jack barked out the orders. Ben watched as another ship joined the battle. "Welcome to the battle Captain Merasska." Ben returned his attention to the enemy fleet. "Lets clean this mess up. All ships fire at will, target the nearest enemy ship." Bright green flashes lanced all across the battlefield. The space battle would be soon over. More than half of the pirate's small fleet had been destroyed.

Bronze · May 11, 2020

Bronze's expression would spread into an amused smirk as the I.L.S.C Varactyl drops out of hyperspace and initiates cloak. Before him, he could see a flurry of lights as the Union's fleet engages with the Pirate's, an uneven fight but one that was bound to happen eventually. Yet he, his ten troopers, and the Mallast-Class Corvette they were aboard weren't here to engage fighters or blow up cruisers, they were here to show the Union what just a small squad of the Iron Legion could do.

"Ready Lads?" He'd call as he'd enter the galley, the ten of his best and brightest standing to attention to greet him in one unified step. "Ready to put down some pirates?" He'd clarify, his question met with a loud roar of approval "Good! Get your gear ready we land as soon as we get the go-ahead from the employer."

Bronze would head into the captain's quarters and begin the arduous process of getting armored up while opening coms to the lead ship of the Union. "This is Bronze of the Iron Legion requesting permission to land and engage." With that he'd slide his helmet on, the HUD lighting up with runes of the Valkyri as it initiates its start-up procedures.

"Destroy that last bomber!" The agitated voice of Tristan cried out in agony as he watched an enemy bomber enter targeting range of the Achilles underside, the ships one weak spot.

Thousands of missiles launched albeit they were nor only targeting that one bomber but also the rest of the enemy fighters. Within moments, the pirate fleet was reduced to five retreating ships which all chased by Zweihander forces.

--- General Cari ---

"To victory" the Chiss General pounded his chest. Yes, it was true any on Schdsa had given up the majority of thier technology in favor of restarting thier once great civilization but they hadn't abandoned their principles in battle theory.

Within seconds of the Zweihander reinforcements arrival, Varu had begun deploying them towards the pirate fotress. The Hypervelocity Cannons would begin pounding on the fort. and garguatan holes would appear. Soon, the battle would be over.

Dasead Merasska · May 13, 2020

Dasead saw the battle progressing in their favor from his chamber. The firepower of allied reinforcements had already sent the pirates to a breaking point, it was all too easy to break their will now. Satisfied with his contribution, and his first results of battle meditation in combat, Dasead exits the chamber and heads back up to the bridge of his ship. Once there, he issues orders his pilot.

"Zeus, bring the ship around to the fortress to join the others, lower shields, and open fire. Tsk, tsk, tsk ,tsk. Put these poor souls out of their misery."
