Despite the haste with which the Lyrans advanced on this last industrial outpost of the Adders, the world was still able to be reinforced, though the Lyrans were quietly confident of the outcome, as they had yet to meet heavy resistance at the major worlds of Coventry and Alarion. However, it would be foolish not to proceed cautiously now.

Kommandant-General Gerald Davidoff verified that his whole force had arrived, and despite a slight power surge from the Invader-class Soulcatcher, there were no issues. He gave the order to approach the planet, and his forces were greeted by a tough sounding female voice.

"Lyran scum, this is Galaxy Commander Samantha Reisch, commander of Tau Galaxy. You are not welcome here, now turn yourselves away or face the full fury of the Tau and Upsilon galaxies!" Davidoff merely grunted.

"Sorry there lass, but my orders are to crush any 'o you Star Addners that put up a fuss. Seems you just did, so we'll be happy to crush your heads in for you."
"My only regret is that I will not be alive in .03 seconds. I would have liked to watch the enemy attempt to vent an omnidirectional thermonuclear blast enveloping their outpost."

Shortly after the exchange with the Lyran general, the MAF commander on planet arrived at the Adder headquarters.  Apprised of the situation, Dunane Knute went immediately to where Galaxy Commander Reisch was standing.

"So, Galaxy Commander.  Your strategy is to fight and die.  Aff?  And for what?  This pissant world.  Neg.  The strategic vision is that the Star Adder needs its warriors.  Today and into tomorrow.  Therefore your tactics are no more enlightning than the gutless Lyrans we now face.  I challenge you instead, for command of all forces on this worldfor the betterment of Clan Star Adder."

The Galaxy Commander regarded the freebirth soldier before her with some distain. She would never be comfortable with their presence, though she was well aware that these were true warriors, not the foolish young boys some of the other Sphereoids fielded. Still, this was not the place to be fighting over who controlled what soldiers.

"Neg Commander. You may fight alongside us if that is your wish, but I will not leave the defense of this world in another's hands. The Khan's gamble at Vorzel has failed, and our chance at ending this war in a single blow are finished. Our last hope is to bleed the Lyrans as best we can. Help will not arrive from the Homeworlds in time to save us, and our fleet was massacred at Vorzel, so we cannot hold back the Lyrans.

This is not your fight, Commander, but if you are staying, I sugest you get your craft in the air as soon as possible. Perhaps they will overlook you if you do not engage them."

OOC: From an inchar POV, the Adder GalCom can't leave the defense of the planet to an outsider, especially a Sphereoid. However, if you'd like to 'take command' of the defending forces you are welcome to do so. However, as I assume your intention is for them to try and escape, the Adders will fight atleast one round of combat before entertaining the idea of trying to escape, and they will only make the attempt if they are down by a significant margin. Theres not many places left for them to retreat to, and they know it.

Might I suggest that since there has been no apparent interest in MMing this, that it go to simres with the CSA/MoC v's the Lyrans.

Parm, since you have an interest here, go ahead and roll for the defenders.
And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Apollyon, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
