The stars bent in and then space reasserted itself with a thermal plume, leaving two needle-shapes floating in the darkness.
"Attention Star adder occupiers of the world of Howick, I am Leutenant Christie of the Union of Independent Worlds Navy, on orders to challenge you for the possession of this system, that you may be freed up to go fight the Terrans instead of being stuck out here in the back end of beyond in our neighbourhood. So, I must ask you, with what do you defend your possession of this star system?"
I, Star Commander Jorge, shall defend this world with my star from the 509th Gatekeeper (R/R). We shall await your warriors in the canyons north of the capital.
(5 mechs @ 1 FP, on canyonball A-D)
I, Ensign Rebecca Alon, counter-bid you with Three Battlemechs, plus one squad of suited infantry from Ensign O'Malley's platoon, to show that the honour of the Corps is greater than you may at first, have believed.

Results/outcome are based on the first die-roll. Since it was deadline day, I went ahead and just dropped blocs of six rolls each here and on the Millerton thread for efficiency's sake-but the first roll was all that was required to decide this contest in favour of the Star Adders on straight attrition.
