Just commenting real quick. I seem to recall the Millenium falcon and several ships both bigger and smaller skirting through not only dozens of regular Star Destroyers but also a Super Star Destroyer in order to reach the Death Star, and then said Millenium Falcon also making it past the turbo-lasers on the Death Star without taking any damage at all. Though the Star Destroyers were engaging other capital ships at the time of course, but again the Millenium Falcon managed to doge through fire from not one but TWO star Destroyers when fleeing Tatooine.

See that is completely acceptable, but then you have factor in the black sun fleet as well that is there and currently throwing asteroids at the crusade fleet

[member="Nemene Talith"] That is the point. The Star Destroyers were already engaged and were focusing most of their fire on larger enemy ships which, in their eyes, would cause more damage to the Deathstar.

It was only one. Two more were coming in. They didn't get there before they made the jump.
It did not take long for their deflector shields to get so low that Han decided it would be safer to make a random jump instead of waiting for the calculations to complete. They would not have lasted much longer under concentrated fire. The Star Destroyer had not sent out it's Tie Fighters nor did it have flak frigates supporting it.

Good points all around 
So basically all Vascious would have to do is throw some fighter escorts around his ship and maybe add some Moross Capital ships up in his attack(as you said)and plausibly he could say he makes it onto the Star Destroyer in some means with some heavy sustained damage. @Kung Seilois
EDIT: Although one could also argue that space is 3 dimensional and that the Horde ships are likely focused on what is ahead of them already. That being the Silken Asteroids and the Moross Fleet already trading fire with the Horde fleet. So technically one could say Vas' freighter looped around behind the flak frigates and the star destroyer(being much much faster than both of them) and is approaching them form the rear.
Anywho, since my character isn't even near there i will now stay out it.

[member="Nemene Talith"] Yep, if he does that I would be completely okay with it.
I don't overly mind now, not enough to be angry about it, but it would make the flow of it all much better and set the atmosphere. He loses pilots (as fighters will be shot, meatshields ftw!), other important Crusade ships are now being fired upon and are taking heavy damage just so this boarding party could, well, board and try to cut the head off the snake.
Really hammers it in that this mission cost much, and if it does not pay off... then they lost a lot of good men for nothing. Boarding missions are generally do or die and should really feel like it, IMO.

At the end of the day I just didn't want to argue with Dredge on the idea of it being impossible for me to get past his flak frigates. This is why I responded comically instead.
Unfortunately it was assumed that we would auto-board despite that being against my style and stature. I don't think i've rped with you before though so I certainly can't fault you for trying to give me a friendly coaching on the subject in Dredge's defense. Rest assured that we won't just pop up instantly in his bridge looking for his head though friend.
[member="Supreme Overlord Dredge"]
That being said however i'd like to point out that several members in the thread have already boarded ships in as little as a single post with little explanation or justification. Now I understand that may not have been your ship, and you may not have been the opponent. Still I don't think those guys were reported, and their opponents didn't make too much fuss over it as far as I can read. Honestly those rpers probably just accepted that this sort of thing will happen. Try to relax more and kick back with a drink or something. You've already killed your character, quit, revived and we're not even out of that thread yet.

[member="Vascious Relens"] Understandable that you would want to avoid an argument, but some jokes tend to fan flames more then quell flames. For instance, your joke hit me as more of a, "I am not going to bother to discuss this with you. I am doing it," which... would not be surprising if it angered someone. This may not have been your intent, but it is how it struck me, and I was not the target of it.
A lot of people in the OOC were finding people to board and fight, talking together and working with each other to find opponents willing to fight them as... well... this thread has gone through some crazy stuff that has made me feel like a child in the backseat watching the parents fight. Back on topic, many people boarding each other have talked to each other about it.
If someone doesn't want you to board their ship and provides legitimate IC reasons for not wanting it; the best thing would be to talk to that person in private about a way to make it work. Or find someone else to fight. When Talith wasn't able to board Dredge's ship; I told him to go ahead and board mine, and I would fight him.
I want to say that this is just friendly advice. I am not accusing anyone nor referring back to any activities in a specific thread. Working with your fellow RPer, IC and OCC, is just something that should be done. I never said you couldn't board and even provided IC suggestions that would make the flow of it all better, but you should try to work with your fellow RPers and always try to respect their wishes for the fight as well.
If you want to fight another character, you can board my ship. I am on the Tango. Granted, Seilois is pretty messed up at the moment, but at least I am already in the medbay, so my wounds will get quicker treatment.

Edit: Sorry about that just got off a long shift and now I'm headed back to work, if you are going to attempt to board please note that the crusade fleet are having asteroids thrown at them and they will be more than likely engaged so please remember that when you post

Alrighty-
Bear with me guys, had a very busy day on friday and worked all day saturday. I have a lot of reading to do in order to catch up.
I will try to get together a dossier of all the Moross Fleet ships and Allied ships for....whoever it was that requested in. I will also compile a list of active allies in the thread.
In the meantime, would the Horde please do the same? From what I can see there is a lot going on in the thread, many new faces and new ships, and I have a feeling that some of the terms have been broken. Possibly on both sides, which wouldn't be surprising considering how chaotic this has gotten, haha. Let's get a tally going guys. <3

Horde has
1 Ranator class Star Destroyer 2000M
2 Azulas class Flak Frigates 300 M
2 Adamantine Class Artillery Frigates 300M
1 I can't remember what it is but Dagon is using it and it clocks in at 800M for a even 4000
As for position we are outside the asteroid belt on the other side of the Moross fleet.
As for the suns I believe they have 1 Paleon class star destroyer and 2 cruisers I'm not really sure.
Vulcanus has 1 star destroyer and it's quite dead in the water

Hokay we reached a verdict, we are raising the ship cap by 1000 so we have 5000M fleet the horde is dropping 2 Artillery frigates and the mystery ranator. since they really haven't done much of anything which gives the suns a good 500 meters to fit a ship in me thinks. I will do the math once I get off work but everyone go back to posting and stuff. It is primarily PVP so lets just try to focus on that

1 Ranator 2000
2 Azulas Flak frigates 600
1 star locust 800 M
1 Xo'Xan star destroyer 950
And the suns are left with 650 Meters to bring to the party [member="Cypher"]

Ok, by the way where have you seen that bit where asteroids are thrown back at us? Me and Sio checked the thread few times and we haven't seen anything like that.
The closest to it was when Cypher described Black Suns slinging around the asteroids with their ship but that wasn't about them being thrown, that meant they were moving around them.
