[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> 10 minutes later...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Warship Vicious passes the Outpost 61 turret defense line and starts the docking procedures. So far no one on the outpost notices anything out of the order, including false breen lifesigns and -

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: - the removal of warp-core security features. As Vicious passed the defense line and moved towards the outpost, invisible Hag'lhr stops "hiding" below bigger ship's belly and swoops towards the -

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: - drydocks. As Hag'lhr moves right above the first giga-drill, first team of Ghost operatives drops from Hag'lhr hangar in special suits and lands at the closest airlock...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Meanwhile, G'Quan slowly positions just outside the enemy defense line weapons range, while the newest "lucky" tactical officers does the last-second weapon calibrations. Thana Vaneri is in -

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: - silent running mode couple more weapon ranges away, her interceptor wings deployed and waiting to power up, some are hooked up to Thana to deploy a targeting virus at the turrets once Outposts' -

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: - direct control is severed...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: Voice: *is now on Hag'lhr* They don't suspect anything yet. Vicious will be ready to detonate in less than minute.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: Kem: The last Ghost team has deployed...all 3 drills should be down within 5-10 minutes.

Egzo@HF_Mudd nods. "Bring us around for another pass over the docks. Keep an eye on the patrols, and the station's alert status."

Egzo@HF_Mudd is watching the little inset countdown to detonation, in a corner of his viewscreen.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> 5...4...3...2...1...

[Team] Lorri@crystyll: i love that little viewscreen counter

[Team] Lorri@crystyll: we used it last night too! Only that was counting down breathable air hours for a lost pilot xD

[Team] Istar@anncarise: Yeah!

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Less than a minute since the Vicious docked, its warp core suddenly goes critical, coupled with the arming of all of its projectiles and failure of all anti-matter containers. A series of -

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: - explosions evaporate the Breen vessel, and with it half the Outpost 61, command center included.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> A dozen of heavy defense turrets armed with polaron cannons and transphasic torpedo launchers start powering up...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- ROUND 1 --

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Egzo's action --

[Local] Egzo@HF_Mudd: "Drop cloak, target nearest turret and fire!"

[Emotes] Egzo@HF_Mudd: rolls 99 (1-100)

[Team] Egzo@HF_Mudd: What turret?

[Team] Egzo@HF_Mudd: XD

[Team] Istar@anncarise: Hmm...Istar should probably be with the Ghost teams or at least helping direct them from the bridge

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Hag'lhr drops the cloak and sprays the nearest turret with dirputor fire and torpedo before it manages to raise the shields, blowing it up and having enough time to recloak.

[Team] Istar@anncarise: Probably more for her to do than operating ship things hehe

Egzo@HF_Mudd clenches a fist in triumph. "Good. Find me another."

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Istar's action --

[Team] N'Py See@gulremal: sure! all 3 teams are inside the drills

[Local] Istar@anncarise: <C> "Looks like it's all clear down here. They're probably busy dealing with the explosion and fighting outside."

[Local] Istar@anncarise: <C> "Starting work on the drills now. We only got limited systems we can work with cause the Breen wiped that OS."

[Team] Istar@anncarise: should I roll for drill disabling?

[Team] N'Py See@gulremal: sure, gimme a roll

[Emotes] Istar@anncarise: rolls 40 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Ghost teams move towards the main power core and other weak sports in order to plant explosives. Morrs corridor designs are strange and confusing, but teams proceed without much delays.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Lorri's action --

Lorri@crystyll FX | Thana deploys the targeting virus to the turrets

[Emotes] Lorri@crystyll: rolls 26 (1-100)

[Local] Istar@anncarise: <C> "Might take...a little bit o...found it! It's a real maze down here..."

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Interceptors power up and move closer to the Outpost 61 turrets, deploying a virus. 3 turrets start shooting randomly, destroying one turret in the process...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Ku'jho's action --

Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg looks to his tactical.."Target any transss torp launcher ssstill active and fire on it."

[Emotes] Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg: rolls 24 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> G'Quan slowly moves up and decloaks, opening fire from the front weapons and torpedo tubes, taking out on of the functioning defense turrets.

[Team] N'Py See@gulremal: current score: 3 turrets destroyed, 3 hit by virus, 6 still operational

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Two defense turrets turn to shoot at Hag'lhr but the bird of prey cloaks and their fire missed completely.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Four remaining operational turrets focus on the G'Quan front shields, and heavy fire of polaron cannons lowers the shields to 70%, but then polaron drain hits and lower efficiency of all systems

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: - by 20%.

[Local] Istar@anncarise: <C> "Okay, we may or may not have a problem here. One of our teams say they found a hangar inside their drill when looking for weakspots. Seems like they carry smaller mobile drills..."

[Team] N'Py See@gulremal: meaning, front shields at 50%, aft at 80%, -10 to future rolls

Egzo@HF_Mudd frowns at the news.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: Voice: ah yes, for drilling of the secondary mineshafts. They shouldn't survive the explosions, though...unless you think you can use them?

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Outpost 61 cracks in half...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- ROUND 2 --

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Egzo's action --

[Local] Egzo@HF_Mudd: <FX> Hag'lhr decloaks and fires on one of the un-suborned turrets, trying to blow it out of the stars.

[Emotes] Egzo@HF_Mudd: rolls 93 (1-100)

[Team] Egzo@HF_Mudd: Good shots today.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Again, Hag'lhr appears and disappears, with another turret in small pieces...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Istar's action --

[Local] Istar@anncarise: <C> "Let's see if we can do anything with these mini-drills with the limited systems we got access to..."

[Emotes] Istar@anncarise: rolls 19 (1-100)

[Team] Istar@anncarise: Guess not!

[Team] Istar@anncarise: Or should I risk a reroll...

[Team] N'Py See@gulremal: up to you! :)

[Team] Istar@anncarise: May as well! Egzo's used his up really early hehe

[Emotes] Istar@anncarise: rolls 16 (1-100)

[Team] Istar@anncarise: Dammit

[Team] Istar@anncarise: Not as lucky as Egzo today hehe

[Team] N'Py See@gulremal: you can always power those up and let them drill in the inside...

[Local] Lorri@crystyll: "Sounds like they aren't having much luck down there powering up the minidrills. It's taking too long"

[Local] Istar@anncarise: <C> "Don't think we can control 'em with the OS wiped...might be able to power 'em up and see what damage they can do to the big drills, though."

[Local] Lorri@crystyll: "See what you can do, Istar"

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Lorri's action --

Lorri@crystyll FX | Thana moves to target the turrets not infected with the virus

[Emotes] Lorri@crystyll: rolls 16 (1-100)

[Local] Istar@anncarise: <C> "Alright, we'll use the drills to help bring down the big drills, then."

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Thana powers up and moves into firing range, while Interceptors start pestering 5 remaining turrets, without much success.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Ku'jho's action --

Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg looks to his bridge crew and commands.."Reinforce the ssshieldsss, and fire a ssspread on all live turretsss!"

[Emotes] Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg: rolls 66 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Another volley of fire takes down two more turrets, while engineering equalized shields, both now at 65%.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Out of 3 corrupted turrets, one manages to shake off the virus, while remaining two immediately target it and destroy it.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: 3 remaining turrets keep focusing G'Quan, polaron fire drops the front shields to 40%, while two transphasic torpedoes manage to bypass the shields and hit armor plating, doing minor structural damage

Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg hits his arm chair comms.."Damage Control Teamsss to fore sssectionsss!"

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Everyone's sensor ping as 3 breen raiders warp in! It would seem that one of two breen patrols that were sent to patrol the outskirts of the system risked a short warp jump!

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Ships move towards G'Quan, their weapons powering up...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- ROUND 3 --

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Egzo's action --

[Local] Egzo@HF_Mudd: <FX> Hag'lhr shimmers into visibility again, diving on one of the turrets shooting at the G'Quan.

[Emotes] Egzo@HF_Mudd: rolls 48 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Hag'lhr's fire drops the turret's shields, making it an easy target for someone else...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Istar's action --

Istar@anncarise tries to speed up the drills' destruction now that they know the layout better, trying to use the mini-drills to help in addition to the explosives so they can hopefully finish the job and run.

[Emotes] Istar@anncarise: rolls 11 (1-100)

[Team] Istar@anncarise: I'd say Egzo stole my spots but he didn't roll /that/ well this turn...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Splitting the attention does slow things, but first mini-drills are being powered up by one half of each team, while the second part of each team keeps heading towards the drills' fuel -

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: - reserves to plant the explosives.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Lorri's action --

Lorri@crystyll FX | Thana moves to intercept the incoming raiders before they engage G'Quan

[Emotes] Lorri@crystyll: rolls 65 (1-100)

[Local] Lorri@crystyll: "Looks like another patrol is inbound from the far side of the system. ETA 10 minutes"

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Thana speeds up and positions itself between G'Quan and incoming raiders, forcing two of the newcomers to engage...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Ku'jho's action --

[Local] Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg: Auxiliary power to ssshieldsss, tetryon beamss fire at will on thossse turretsss!

[Emotes] Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg: rolls 83 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Tetryon beams lance across the space taking down two undamaged turrets, while engineering diverts aux power to front shields, bringing them up to 50%.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Two virus affected turrets destroy the shieldless turret before they start shooting at each other, dropping each other's shields.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Two of the raiders focus on Thana's front, peppring her with polaron bolts and transphasic torps. Polaron fire drops the front shields to 60%, but some of the torps bypass the shields and destroy

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: - main front disruptor arrays.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Last raiders uses the distraction to move past Thana and fire at G'Quan, whack-a-moling the shields back to 30%, and one transphasic torp hits the port wing, disabling the port wing's weapons.

[Team] N'Py See@gulremal: (un)lucky shot there

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Breen cruiser, docked at the last drydock, powers up...

[Team] N'Py See@gulremal: you know, I did wonder if anyone will remember that one...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- ROUND 4 --

[Team] N'Py See@gulremal: score: 2 corrupter turrets without shields, 2 raiders on Thana, 1 raider on G'Quan, 1 enemy cruiser powering up. second enemy 3-raider patrol eta 9 minutes

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Egzo's action --

[Local] Egzo@HF_Mudd: <FX> Hag'lhr (which hasn't recloaked, this time) leaves the remaining turrets for the Gorn to deal with, targeting the third raider instead.

[Emotes] Egzo@HF_Mudd: rolls 23 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Hag'lhr moves in at the raider attacking G'Quan, but raider manages to evade incoming fire...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Istar's action --

[Team] Istar@anncarise: How long until drills are totally sabotaged?

[Team] N'Py See@gulremal: depends on your rolls :)

[Team] Istar@anncarise: oooh

Istar@anncarise continues trying to quicken up the drill sabotage so they can get out of here!

[Emotes] Istar@anncarise: rolls 28 (1-100)

[Team] Istar@anncarise: I should not have used that reroll earlier

[Team] Istar@anncarise: hehe

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> First half of each team is programming the mini-drill while the second part of each them has arrived at the fuel depots of each drills and starts planting explosives...soon (TM).

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Lorri's action --

Lorri@crystyll FX | Thana turns to shield it's weakened forward arc and brings the side cannons to bear on the two raiders

[Emotes] Lorri@crystyll: rolls 34 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: ** the second part of each team has arrived at the fuel depots of each drill

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Thana's fire drops the shields of the one of the raiders to 50%, while the Interceptors move to bug the second raider - they do no significant damage, but keep the ship pinned anyway...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Ku'jho's action --

[Local] Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg: Helm, bringsss about to cover our port side. Tactical, fire quantum ssspread on the powering ssship at drydock!

[Emotes] Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg: rolls 21 (1-100)

[Team] Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg: rerollin

[Emotes] Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg: rolls 83 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> G'Quan ignores the raider and turns all its firepower towards the drydocks, firing spreads of quantum torpedoes and tetryon fire at the breen warship. This onslaught splits the warship in half -

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: - and destroys entire drydock in the process.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> The two corrupted turrets blow each other up...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Two breen raiders continue firing on Thana, this time damaging aft shields to 40% and scoring a hull hit with a torpedo, taking out an aft thruster.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Last raider easily navigates around G'Quan and opens fire at weakened port wing, dropping the aft shields to 30% but luckily not breaching the shields this time.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- ROUND 5 --

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Egzo's action --

Egzo@HF_Mudd looks impressed as Ku'jho deals decisively with the cruiser in dock, which he was about to break off to go handle. With that target thoroughly crossed off the list, Hag'lhr continues dogfighting the raider that is still firing on the G'Quan.

[Emotes] Egzo@HF_Mudd: rolls 58 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Hag'lhr uses raider's focus on G'Quan to sneak in a couple of direct shots, dropping the raider's shields completely...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Istar's action --

[Local] Istar@anncarise: <C> "Almost there..."

Istar@anncarise continues their sabotage efforts in the confusing interior of the drills.

[Emotes] Istar@anncarise: rolls 51 (1-100)

[Team] Istar@anncarise: Yes!

[Team] Istar@anncarise: Not really a great roll...but above 50 at least!

[Team] Istar@anncarise: Might've been my first above 50 in quite a few rolls hehe

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Mini-drills activate and start ripping into the soft insides of the big drills. With explosives planted for a good measure, Ghost teams head to nearest exits for extraction...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Lorri's action --

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: Thana Ops: Second breen patrol ETA: 7 minutes.

Lorri@crystyll FX | Thana continues to hold the raiders currently focused on it, hitting both with all facing weapons on cycle

[Emotes] Lorri@crystyll: rolls 90 (1-100)

[Team] Istar@anncarise: Yay! At least Thana's rolling well!

[Team] Istar@anncarise: hehe

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Thana's fire fully drops the shields of teh first raider and disables the vessel with concurring shots, while the second raider takes 50% shields damage from the Interceptors...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Ku'jho's action --

Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg orders his tactical to target the ship on the Thana with 50% shields..."Concentrated fire from the tetryon banksss!"

[Emotes] Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg: rolls 41 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> G'Quan's fire drops the raiders shields and rips one of the 3 nacelles off...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Both enemy raiders, seeing no reinforcements are coming in time, take evasive maneuvers and try to escape the scene of battle.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- ROUND 6 --

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Egzo's action --

Egzo@HF_Mudd gives chase to the fleeing raiders, making sure they keep going.

[Emotes] Egzo@HF_Mudd: rolls 13 (1-100)

[Team] Egzo@HF_Mudd: Heh, just as well that was bluff. :p

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Hag'lhr fires some farewell shots to the raider that is running away from G'Quan...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Istar's action --

Istar@anncarise ensures all the Ghosts are safely extracted before setting off the explosives to hopefully finish off the drills and make them totally unuseable.

[Emotes] Istar@anncarise: rolls 63 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Ghost teams evacuate the drills and are beamed out by Thana.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Lorri's action --

Lorri@crystyll FX | Thana turns to intercept the second patrol

[Emotes] Lorri@crystyll: rolls 51 (1-100)

[Local] Lorri@crystyll: ...and continue to attack whatever is still being a nuisance along the way

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Thana moves between other ships and the breen patrol that is arriving soon-ish, while starting with ship repairs. Interceptors do some pot shots at the escaping raider, but then fall back to -

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: - defend the mothership.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: -- Ku'jho's action --

Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg - tactical station targets the weakest of the two vessels. "Firing quantum spread."

[Emotes] Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg: rolls 83 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> And it seems that Interceptors retreated in time, as spread of torpedoes vaporizes the fleeing raider...

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> Last remaining raider jumps to warp. Soon after, sensor show that the second breen patrol has changed course and is heading towards main breen space...

Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg .."Engineering teamsss, get that port ssside repaired on the double!"

[Emotes] Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg: rolls 81 (1-100)

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> As on cue, giga-drills start to crumple as the damage from mini-drills and explosives/fuel start doing their work...there's no epic explosion, as most is contained by the strong drill hulls.

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: <FX> However, holes and twisted searing-hot metal on the surface are enough evidence that insides of these drills are a toast.

[Local] Istar@anncarise: "That should do 'em!"

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: Voice: Great! I knew I could count on you!

[Local] N'Py See@gulremal: Voice: though I suggest we head back to your base before Hated Enemy sends more forces this way!

Warhunter Ku'jho@Domarg .."Engage cloak and plot a return courssse."

[Local] Egzo@HF_Mudd: Sounds good t' me.
