STAR WARS THE JEDI RESISTANCE(IC)

[Vortukia]

Greysons was jolted out of his sleep, he was laying aganst a crate and judging by the time, he had been asleep for a few hours. He looked around and was satisfied when he saw nothing of concern. He stood up and dusted himself off and walked over to the vent about to get in it when he heard a conversation
of two officers.

So yeah, I guess now we're heading to Corusaunt. We're going there to execute some Jedi's kid. Greyson I believe

Greysons's eyes went wide... His son, alive? But...No... He needed to think clearly, they would be landing soon and he would be some cargo they just picked up along the way. He closed the vent shaft sat there... waiting. Because he was about to go get his son!

[New Emphillon]

The Lucrehulks opened up their hangers as the multitude of gunships began to pass through the magnetic fields and into the ships themselves. The vultures continued to swarm around the Carracks unleashing a barrage of weapons fire on their shields and hulls. Many vultures went after the Praetor but ultimately just becoming space debris minute after engaging the ships. Those that were not entirely destroyed by the weapons of the Imperial ship crashed themselves into the weapons and the bridge hoping to have some effect on the large vessel. As this happened the TIE were becoming fewer and fewer as they did not want them heading for the planet and assaulting their gunships.

Meanwhile on the star destroyers the droids were only a few passageways away from both the bridge and the engines. Their route their as littered with the bodies of stormtroopers, crewman and large piles of droid bodies and parts. They were meeting stiff resistance but they pushed forward with explosives and blasterfire. They spread throughout the ship hoping to cause the stormtroopers to spread out to come divert anymore stormtroopers from heading to their priority targets. On theBehemoth The engines and navigation were under their control. Droids went throughout the ship earlier and removed and destroyed all imperial devices that could either track or damage the ship. Moments later they left the system on the powerful Behemoth. This vessel was no longer classified as Imperial for it was now a rebel ship.

On the planet the gunships were rising as the emplacement were being bombed and destroyed. Vultures went ahead of them destroying the Imperial strarfighters in their way. Rebel troopers began to either board the gunships themselves or fought towards landing zones where they could evacuate. As they rose up they fired on the stormtroopers that were now below them. Vultures took the fire of AA-guns so the gunships would be less harmed. When they were hit they retargeted themselves to land/crash into the Imperials.

The Praetor battlecruiser began to lose its shield strength from all of the abuse. Each droid that ran into the shield had the same effect as a laser cannon shot. The bombardment from Krass's fleet wasn't helping matters any, but with all the damage the battlecruiser took, it dealt back three times. It took everything Krass had to keep the Force from abandoning the Jedi and the innocent and aiding the Empire in this battle. The ships of his fleet took a lot of damage from the Praetor and the Imperial Star Destroyers, their shields near the breaking point, but they held firm and fired back at the Imperial forces. The smaller Carrack cruisers and the CR90 corvettes were too busy with the droid fighters to be of any trouble.

Krass sensed one of the Star Destroyers move away from the battle and towards his side and almost had the gunners fire on the ship, until he sensed no living being on the ship. He mentally grinned. Cosmos just hijacked the Empire's main starship. It would prove useful in a fight and for analysis for future improvements to the rebels' starships. That thought surprised Krass. This whole escapade was causing him to think like a military strategist fighting for his life rather than the Jedi he was. He was going to have to fix that immediately. He refocused on the task at hand and continued to use the Force to help in the evacuation.

After a few hours of waiting, the last of Krass's evacuation force lifted off from the LZ outside of Theed and raced for the Pride of the Republic and its escorts. The Empire, by this point, tried to recover from the loss of its SPHA-T walker by directing the rest to aim their guns into the sky. Whether out of sheer luck or the Force's aid, the SPHA-T walkers were either not I the proper position or, in a couple of cases, suffering mechanical failure. Cosmos's forces had a clear window to escape.

Elsewhere, the 501st Legion continued its struggle against the pockets of resistance still in the city. There was very little resistance by this point, either because the rebels were killed or the rest had escaped, somehow, to the LZs. The few that stayed behind were apprehended and shot on the spot after a quick interrogation by the stormtroopers. The city, by this point, was ablaze. Several buildings, including parts of the Royal Palace, were torn down and smoldering, filling the sky with inky black smoke, causing some trouble for the AA teams and giving more aid to the evacuation forces.

After Krass sensed the last of his evacuation forces board his vessels, he sent a message to Master Cosmos through the Force. My forces have finished their evacuation. You may wish to ask your forces to finish up, as we need to leave. I can't hold off the Imperial forces for much longer. With that, Krass maneuvered the fleet away from Naboo and towards a random point, trying to guide the Imperial forces away. One Star Destroyer and the Praetor gave chase, pursuing the fleeing vessels and trying to hit every ship they could. Commander Dev ordered for the fleet to begin preparations for hyperspace and to make a couple random jumps before going for home.

[Vortukia]

They say if you love something, let it go. If you truly love something to the point where you will give your life to make sure they continue on with their life. Never let them go

The ship landed and that was Greysons cue, he used his force to blast a massive hole in the wall to reveal terrified soldiers, they began firing at Greyson who in return lifted them all up and slammed them down onto the ground with bone crushing force on the hard dirt and grass.

Greyson took off full sprint blasting aside door and person alike with massive force push's until he reached the room of pods, he spotted Greyson on one of them.
Was his son in one of those...things?!
A scientist was about to pull a gun when Greyson took out his light saber and in one felt swoop decapitated him, he put the swoard away and stepped over the body of the scientist to the pod, he clicked a button and with a loud his the pod opened to reveal his 'son'.

His son fell to the ground only to be caught by Greyson, he moved the hair away from his son's Kenji's face to reveal his sweaty grey skin. He was sick, very very sick... Greyson took his mask off to reveal a heavily scarred face.

"Son, it's me. Daddy." Greyson choked out.

Kenji looked up and smiled with large beady eyes.
"Did you come to take me away from the bad men?" Kenji hacked out with a little blood coming out from his lips.

Greyson smiled sadly "Yes son, I took you away from the bad men. They won't hurt you any longer."

Kenji smiled and closed his eyes, he was in pain... very much pain.
"Daddys going to have to go away now Kenji, I want you to remember I love you very very much." Greyson said letting the tears overtake him.

Kenji smiled and said "I love you to daddy" he then closed his eyes.

Greyson glanced at his pistol and took it in his hand and activated it.

The entire room fell silent, as a single gunshot was heard

The Padawan of Jedi Master Byron Arklight, recently deceased, Kite Tenjo, walked down the corridors of the Rogue Clone Outpost on Geonosis set up by Arklight to aid the Geonosians when he hired them to build a Droid Army. The CIS Fleet still held position in orbit. It stood at one Providence Class Cruiser, five Recursant Class Destroyers, seven Munificent Class Frigates, and three Lulhurks. All that remained of Arklight's former Droid Army aside from those ships was a couple hundred Battle Droids.
The Rogue Clone Army was no better. They were reduced to about three Venators, Six Acclamators, and Seven Aquitans and about a thousand Clones. That was all at the moment. They held their Home Base at Mon Calamari. Right now Kite had received word that the Imperials intended to attack Geonosis. It made sense. Seeing as Arklight's Contract with the Geonosians still stood or rather Kite was trying to rebirth it but with little success so far, it would be an excellent move for the Empire to cut off the Droid Army. And then they would most likely go after the Kaminoans again.

[The United Empire of Exucular]

The vultures and droids on the star destroyers after hours of keeping the Imperials swarmed and on their toes finally leave their current battles and return home to the Lucrehulks. As they depart however they render one more Carrack drifting in space and covered in hull breaches. The droids aboard the star destroyers retraced their steps and load themselves back on their remaining transports. Its takes several minutes but eventually they pass through the Magnetic fields of the hangers and gun it towards the Lucrehulks. However they were not leaving empty handed. While they were aboard the Imperial vessels they gathered all information they could find. They did this through the Hanger terminals and the various computer stations they found while moving through the ships. The Lucrehulks opened up their hangers once again and prepare to receive the transports and fighters. After a short time the vultures and transports were safely within the ships.

The remaining gunships on the planet bolted up towards the surface followed by the last vultures and bombers straight behind them. All rebel forces were now either safely aboard the Lucrehulks and gunships or were killed while fighting. Everyone that died down there would be remembered as heroes to the rebels and people of Naboo. A short time later the Lucrehulks finally had all aboard and turned and aimed for open space.

"Master Cosmos, we're ready."
"Good, go now and make a few random jumps before returning to base."
"Understood."
Moments later Master Cosmos detected the ships leaving the system and entering hyperspace through the scanners of his Delta-7. He sent a message to Master Krass through the Force. Thank you for giving my remaining forces their window of opportunity. My five Lucrehulks are now safely away and will perform a few random jumps before returning to Tython. I suggest we leave now before The Empire capitalizes on the less amount of ships.

[Pantorrum]

Master Dy'lan walked down the corridor of his new Acclamator Cruiser, deemed the Resolute. It was the new flagship of the jedi order, which had 13 Aquitans and now 2,300 Senate Gaurds, and 21 padawans, 6 Jedi Knights, and the jedi council of Masters, which numbered only 4.(if it 5, than assume it is corrected ) Master Dy'lan was preparing a mission to Alderran to recruit more jedi padawans found by the holocron brought to him by the jedi masters. In all, 12 potential Padawans are found on the planet.

And then they would most likely go after the Kaminoans again.

And the Empire took the opportunity. A Star Destroyer laid at the edge of the Geonosis system and deployed several probe droids further in-system to determine the size of the enemy force. The Empire required the services of the Geonosian populace for the construction of... well, the captain didn't know what, but it seemed important if the Empire wanted to enslave the planet. The probes leapt into the system and would report their findings to the Star Destroyer upon their arrival within the next day. All that vessel could do now was wait and prepare the fleet to move when the probe droids reported back with the proper information.

Understood, Master Cosmos. It was the right moment anyway. The fleet was ready and leapt into hyperspace, leaving behind the Empire. Krass let out a breath he didn't realize he had been holding. He tried to stand up, but his legs felt weak, so he sat back down. He was tired, but relieved. Wiping some perspiration from his forehead, Krass turned about the bridge to see the crew of the bridge give a brief celebration before returning to work. He had to grin at that. In a few days, the fleet would arrive back at Zhar to repair and replenish itself for another attack on the Empire, if it needed to do that. The civilians would be given refuge aboard the ships until they could be transferred to the moon of Gall for a more permanent home. It would seem a little odd, but there was hardly anyone on the moon to take notice. After a few moments of broken thought, Krass got himself off the deck and excused himself to his quarters for some rest. He will need it for later.

Vader watched the fleet leave the system with little emotion. Once again, the enemy would do a few misguiding runs then travel to their real destination. It was a practical tactic and one that proved effective against the pursuer. However, the rogue fleet would have to appear again somewhere at sometime and when it does, he will know about it. The Jedi couldn't escape him forever. With that thought in mind, he returned his attention to the field officer in charge of the armored unit that aided the 501st Legion. The officer already knew his fate and surrendered to it without a fight, taking full responsibility. Noble and honest. No pleading or begging for his life. Vader had some respect for the man before he killed him by crushing his windpipe. As the stormtroopers rushed the corpse off the deck, Vader turned his attention to the viewport once more and let his mind drift.

Kite had Admiral Yualaren hold the Rogue Clone Fleet at Mon Calamari in case the Empire did attack Geonosis, that way their whole force wouldn't be destroyed in one fell swoop. Meanwhile Kite had arranged a meeting between the leaders of the Techno Union, Banking Clan, and Trade Federation in order to find others to fund the Rogue Forces. Apparently they didn't trust Kite because the Trade Federation representatives came in a fully armed Lulhurk, the Techno Union with a Bulwark and three Techno Union Frigates, and the Banking Clan in three Munificents. The meeting wasn't going well.
Kite had the Providence Battle Cruiser in orbit deploy multiple Droid Vulture Squadrons to comb the system.

ABOARD THE SOULFUL

Jedi Master Cypher Cadro stood on the Bridge of his custom designed Providence Class Battle Cruiser, the Soulful. It was crewed entirely by the modified Commando Droids Cadro had built at the Droid Foundry he kept hidden from the rest of the Jedi Order. He had built three Warships to transport his army after Order 66 came along. A Providence and two Munificents. They had been performing hit and run attacks on the Imperials since Cadro knew he would need more forces to do anything big. He had at most about 1,500 Commando Droids and they were 500 to each of his Warships. He had another 200 positioned at the hidden Foundry.
Just then a Commando Droid walked up. "Sir, our scanners report Separatist activity at Geonosis." Cadro looked up. The CIS was dissolved wasn't it.
"Set a course for Geonosis."

[Lakratia]

So proud to see my creation living long and well.( ,yes,im still around)

The probe droids arrived at the planet of Geonosis after a day of travel. The probes, to avoid detection, gunned for their programmed targets. A few probe droids rushed for the surface, while the rest hid in the asteroid field of Geonosis, where they would be difficult to find. The probe droids that landed on the ground had an even better cover. As they landed on the surface, one would believe that they were simply meteorites, not an uncommon sight on the planet and so would most likely go unnoticed.

After each droid arrived at their target locations, they popped out of their casings and began their search for the enemy and determine their numbers. One droid managed to spot some Vulture droids, but it could not get a visual on the carrier of the fighters. It would have to continue elsewhere for that. It proceeded through the asteroid belt at a slow pace so as not to attract any attention.

As the droids began their search, all of their findings were sent through an encrypted channel to the Imperial forces at the edge of the system. The findings were too small and too invaluable to be of any use to the fleet at the moment, but there was still plenty of time to wait and still plenty of space to check. The Imperial force continued to wait. It just picked up a couple stragglers to aid in the attack.

At that moment an event occurred that gave the Probes plenty to report. Several new Droid Battalions of Battle Droids, Supers, Dwarf Spiders, AAT's, Corporate Alliance Tanks, and Octupara Droids marched out of different foundries and converged on one central point. The Rogue Clone Outpost where Kite was meeting with the delegates from various corporate Factions to find funding. He was trying to prove to them that backing the Rogue Forces would not be a mistake and they would not be wiped out within a day. Aside from that the Rogue Forces Communications Channel filled with chatter about how Geonosis would be a central point for the Rogue Forces. Unfortunately for them the full status and numbers of the Blockade were transmitted on an Open Frequency by accident. The Blockade consisted of a Providence Battle Cruiser, five Recursant Destroyers, seven Munificent Frigates, and three Lulhurks.

[Gotengo]

Some time later, the Soulful and its two Munificent Frigate Escorts, dropped out of Hyperspace in the Geonosis System. They might attract unwanted attention since it was clear they were not CIS. The color scheme of the ships was changed from all that which was blue becoming red and the Separatist Symbols being replaced with Republic ones. Cadro stared at Geonosis. He could make out a large number of ships over the planet. He turned to the Captain Droid.
"Captain. Status update of ships over Geonosis." The Commando Droid nodded and pulled up a Datapad. The Droid then spoke to Cadro. "Sir, the fleet is positioned in a Blockade Formation known as a common Separatist Formation called Echo 7. The fleet is comprised of ships matching known Separatist Class Vehicles. Scanning indicates that they are holding position orbiting the planet. What are your orders?" Cadro stood up and surveyed the Blockade. "Do not engage. Move us behind one of the Geonosian Moons and we will lie in wait."

[New Emphillon]

After a couple of days of resting and meditating, Krass's fleet came out of hyperspace over the moon of Kile in the Zhar system. Krass watched from the bridge of the Pride as the battle-scarred fleet trudged to the shipyard hidden behind the moon's shadow, transmitting for a few brief moments the passcode to pass through the shield surrounding the facility. After several days of running and fighting, Krass was glad to finally return to a place that he could just stay and rest.
"Is this your shipyard," Celeste asked. Krass had forgotten that Celeste hadn't been with Krass and Maris when they arrived here for help... two and a half weeks ago? By the Force, Krass moaned in his mind. It felt like an eternity ago.
"It was a part of the CIS forces during the Clone Wars, but it is unofficially owned by the mercenary squad Saboath Squadron," Krass explained.
Celeste raised her left eyebrow at that information. "Mercenaries? And you are allies with them?"
"'Allies' is a strong word, ma'am," Dev said without looking up from the holoprojection of the surrounding space.
"We have a... truce," Krass stated. "Saboath Squadron is not something the Republic cared for and I'm sure the Empire has the same sentiments as its predeccesor. We're both fighting the same foe."
"They also provide excellent repair service," Maris chided, but not helping the situation. Celeste was still unsure about the whole thing.
"What of the mercenary leader," she asked. Krass was about to answer when Dev cut in with a bit of a chuckle.
"He's a glutton and an idiot," Dev snickered. "I've seen even better leaders amongst the Gammoreans."
Krass shot Dev a look that would have turned even a battle droid into stone, if that was even possible. Neither Dev or Maris was helping Krass explain the situation to Celeste. The latter just sighed, then asked, "I don't think you could've done any better than if you went to the Hutts for help. At least these mercenaries aren't taxing you for breathing."
This kind of surprised Krass, but he merely shrugged. "I figured it was better to come here and get some ships and repairs than to ask the Hutts for the same. We had to make do with the options we were given," he said. Krass was just glad Celeste wasn't upset by his decision.
By this point the fleet had passed through the shields and, with the exceptions of the Pride of the Republic and the other Old Republic vessels, proceeded to their berths for repairs. Unbeknownst to the Jedi, Boba Fett sat watching the whole spectacle. He had just returned to his position about a day ago and couldn't believe his luck.
"Looks like I'm about to become the wealthiest Mandolorian in the galaxy," he chuckled as he keyed his communications console and typed in the code given to him by the Empire. It took a few moments for the connection to be established.
"This is Captain Bolvan of the Devastator," an authoritative voice stated. "State your business."
"Patch me throught to Lord Vader," Boba requested. "I have information on the whereabouts of several Jedi."
There was a second of silence, then, "Stand-by."

Move us behind one of the Geonosian Moons and we will lie in wait."

If information was a currency, then the Imperial fleet was becoming richer and richer every second. The probe droids on the planet had begun to detect large amounts of activity, but the exact number of the enemy forces were not determined at the moment. In space, the droids found several warship classes of Separatist design sitting in orbit. One droid reported that there was one Providence carrier and approximately two frigates maneuvering behind one of Geonosis's moons. It seemed a little odd, but the droid didn't decide what was out of place amongst a fleet of out-of-place starships. After observing the enemy for a few hours, the Imperial fleet had enough information to begin its assault. With that, the captain of the flagship, the Executrix, ordered for the fleet to jump into hyperspace. The battlegroup leapt towards the inner-system.

Kite decided something was up. He figured the Empire would have attacked by now. He contacted the Droid Blockade and ordered them to prepare for battle.

It seemed a little odd, but the droid didn't decide what was out of place amongst a fleet of out-of-place starships. After observing the enemy for a few hours, the Imperial fleet had enough information to begin its assault. With that, the captain of the flagship, the Executrix, ordered for the fleet to jump into hyperspace. The battlegroup leapt towards the inner-system.

The Captain Droid approached Cadro. "Sir, we are detecting multiple ships nearing the system." Cadro spun around. "Send the Droids to their Battlestations and prepare for battle. But hold position behind this moon until these ships enter the system." The small fleet began to prepare for battle.

Master Cosmos has been on The Pride of the Republic since the end of the Battle of Naboo. He has spent this time repairing his Delta-7 from the damage it took during the fighting. By using some extra parts in the hanger and assistance from the occasional mechanic he was able to repair the shields, engines, and hull. The hull and shields took the longest amount of time because of the amount of damage inflicted upon them by the hands of Darth Vader and the TIE fighter squadrons. He was just about finished reapplying the Jedi Order insignia unto the fighter when he felt it. He felt a familiar yet distant force signature. He put down his tools and looked out of the magnetic field that laid in between space and the inside of the ship. Something was about to happen but he couldn't tell what.

Kite had finished talking with the delegates whom had decided to provide him with the funding and recourses to keep his operation going or at least three out of twelve did. However this was enough to at least construct a few more ships to the Clone Fleet but they would not be ready for a while. Now Kite stood on the Bridge of the Providence Cruiser heading the Blockade. He had positioned those New Droid Battalions around the Main Droid Foundry and one other around the Outpost. Now he waited for what was to come.
Meanwhile the entire Blockade was prepared for battle.

Meanwhile the entire Blockade was prepared for battle.

The Imperial fleet came out of hyperspace right on top of the Jedi forces. The main force consisted of the Executrix, five Venator Star Destroyers, four Rothana battleships, seven Acclamator IIs, several Carrack cruisers and Tartan Patrol Cruisers, and three Dreadnaught heavy cruisers. These vessels fired as soon as they came out of hyperspace, bombarding the open warships with turbo laser fire, ion blasts and concussion missiles. Fighters and bombers streamed from the hangars of the larger vessels, while the Carracks and the Tartans provided the fleet with an anti-fighter screen.
The captain was pleased by the display of force and grinned at the fact that the battle would be a short one. He had a few nasty surprises in-store for these rebels. He wasn't about to let them win.

Kite smirked. "To Battle! Launch all Fighters!" Fortunately the Droid Fighters and Bombers were designed to come in much larger numbers than the Imperials. So that was a small advantage but they were at a disadvantage in numbers. Droid Vulture Droids, Hyena Bombers, Tri-Fighters and the lot swarmed the enemy Starfighters and strafed their larger ships. Kite turned to the Droid Commander. "Concentrate all our Fire on the enemy Flagship and likewise for Recursant 2 and Munificents 1, and 5. It wont be able to hold against the combined firepower. Move the rest of our ships to provide Cover Fire. I want those Lulhurks to launch every single fighter aboard the." The Commander nodded. "Roger, Roger."
The mentioned ships began to open fire all weapons on the Executrix while the rest engaged the enemy fleet. Still damage was being done to the Droid and thankfully also slightly to the Imperial Fleet. The Droid Blockade was at a disadvantage in numbers, reinforcements, and manpower but was at an advantage in the fact that Droid Ships and Droids for the Confederacy were designed to be brutal and deadly even on their own. In fewer words, this would be a hard battle.

Cadro was alarmed as the Scanners lit up like fireworks with all the Imperial Ships that had entered the system. Cadro could sense a Jedi commanding the Droid Blockade and that set his mind that he had to help. Cadro turned around. "Captain! Bring our ships in close behind the enemy fleet and launch all Fighters! We'll hit them hard from behind! Also I want Boarding Craft ready to board their Command Ship! Full Craft containing Fifteen Commando Droids each! I want at least twenty Boarding Craft hitting that ship in the first moments of our ambush!" The Captain nodded. "Roger, Roger."
The three Droid Ships came in behind the Imperial Fleet and opened fire on the rear of their fleet. Where their defenses wouldn't be as strong. Hyena Bombers and Vulture Droids zoomed away from the Ships and fired away at the enemy ships. Meanwhile the Boarding Craft were being prepared for launch.

"Sir, we have enemy vessels approaching from the fleet's rear. We also have multiple enemy fighter and bomber squadrons converging on our location," called an officer from the crew pit of the Executrix.
"Have the point-defense lasers powered up to their highest settings and alert the closest Tartan cruisers," the captain ordered.
"What about the enemy capital ships?"
"How many and what class?"
The officer looked back at the scanner readouts briefly. "Two Munificent frigates and one possible Providence carrier."
"Possible," the captain echoed questioningly.
"Yes, sir. The readouts show a vessel similar to the Providence class carrier, but it is heavily modified if it is the correct class."
The captain thought that over for a moment.He had already calculated for the enemy's response with enemy fighters to overwhelm the anti-fighter screen and the fighter escorts, but he had forgotten to think about a possible attack from the rear. It was a stupid mistake, considering the Executrix was in the rear of the fleet. And it was too early in the fight to reveal the first surprise on to the rebels.
"What do we have to defend the rear," the captain asked.
"Just the battleship Vanguard and a couple Carrack cruisers for anti-fighter defense," the officer replied.
It isn't a lot, but it would do, the captain thought.
"Have the Vanguard hit those enemy capital ships with everything it has and bring the Executrix parallel to both enemy battlegroups."
"Yes, sir," the officer replied.
The Executrix and the Vanguard turned to deal with the threat behind the fleet. The battleship was able to bring its guns up first and fired its turbolasers and proton torpedoes at the closest Munificent frigate. Spare V-Wing and ARC-170 fighter squadrons were diverted to the battle at the rear. As the Executrix was parallel to the enemy fleets, it raised its heavy turbolaser cannons and hit the enemy Providence carrier with everything it had.
Elsewhere in the fight, the front vessels took hits to their shields and returned the favor five times over. The shields took beatings from the enemy fire, but held, each one at differing levels of strength. The Tartan and Carrack cruisers in the front and middle of the fleet hit the oncoming fighters and bombers from Kite's fleet with high-level accuracy, thanks to the Tartan's advanced targeting system. The Carracks mainly spat up flak, which was less efficient than the Tartans' efforts, but it was still effective. The Dreadnaught heavy cruisers, Venators and Rothana battleships continued to hit the enemy fleet with every turbolaser cannon, concussion or proton missile, and ion cannon the fleet had. The Acclamators held back to held provide close support for the fleet. Finally, the Imperial fighters and bombers did a little trouble of their own among the enemy fleet. A couple of Tartan cruisers pushed past the front lines of the fleet and provided cover for the agile V-Wings and TIE/Ln fighters, along with the new TIE/gt bombers. The fighters then took the role of providing cover for the bombers, while the latter hit any weakened warship.
