Somerset, capital of the Star Adder Occupation Zone. Renamed to Addergard by the triumphant Star Adders after a crushing defeat of the LCAF, had been inviolate for quite some time. However, now a powerful fleet had come to fight the Adders for their namesake planet.
Galaxy Commander Samir Kerensky floated freely on the bridge of the CWS(CJFS) Nicholas Kerensky, looking out the viewport towards the system's star. He had been suprised when the Falcon Khan had honored him by allowing the Wolves to assault the Star Adder stronghold on their own. It was time they proved that their ferocity had only grown due to their exposure to the Jade Falcons. He looked at the comtech nearby who flipped a switch and nodded.
"Clan Star Adder defenders, I am Galaxy Commander Samir Kerensky of Clan Jade Falcon. For too long your very existance has insulted our Clan, the words of your Khan N'buta profaning our ears. It is time you were sent back to the trashheap from when you came. I bid the Alpha-Wolf and Beta-Wolf Galaxies for possession of this star system. With what forces will you defend against my claim?" It would be several hours before a response was heard, but a response did come.
"You are not welcome here, Samir Kerensky, nor are the Jade Falcons. It is sad that your bloodline has fallen so low, that the dezgra Falcons, nothing more than Lyran mercenaries, should possess it. Be gone from this system, and don't return."

ooooh! :) <<Waves Hand>> Volunteers!?
.... The Wolves are renaming ships after destroyed ones? The Full Moon was destroyed on Tamar and is part of the Raven Touman now.
i just named all the ships after their cannon warships. I didn't feel like being original is all.
I gotcha. But you might want to change that one, it's already in use. :P
the REAL Wolves will not be renaming their warships simply because the Ravens have infested a once-noble warship's hull.
I'll save the name calling for IC ;) What I want to know is will this be a playable match?
that would be why i posted the force details
OOC: last call for anyone who wants to play this out. If no one can confirm that a battle is in progress, I will need to roll this out tomorrow to ensure we have enough time to resolve the potential ground battle to follow.
Looks interesting, Work hours might be a problem, though.
Can me and Chaos get one more day to finish this one? We just did round 1 of the naval battle at Andurien.
Round 3 of the Naval battle at Andurien. And for the good of all (and because its practically the end of the turn) having shot my way free the bulk of the Free Worlds will be pulling out. Soon as I handle round 2 of ground and round 3 of ground. :-)
woot woot as it were sirrah.

As long as it gets played out and there's still time to resolve the ground fight before the cleanup phase, I'm OK with that. If you could try to wrap the fight by the 24th, that would be much appreciated.
I think I was done with most of my combat by the time these threads were posted :P Still, I understand.
Despite trying to beat on it the whole game I couldn't get the Wolf Black Lion down. It had no fore armor, 7 aft and 2 IS left.

As the Wolf and Lyran flags were raised over Somerset for the first time in 40 years, the Wolf warriors reflected on their phyrric victory. Samir Kerensky lay dead on the field, along with nearly half of their ground assault force. Moreover, the battlefields of Somerset were littered with the burnt carcases of Lyran aerospace fighters - a sign of the serious blow the until-now unstoppable Lyran navy had suffered. More than one warrior secretly wished that this was not an omen of things to come.
