The Rebel corvette Pathfinder has taken heavy damage from Imperial turbolasers.

So stick by the Y-Wings.

Ahh, I'm stumped. I can't figure out how to reply.

It would have been a lot easier if I had replied yesterday, but life got in the way.

With all of the conflicting orders, I can't figure out how to respond to each.

Pick a course of action and react accordingly.

You're 12, so chase down TIEs intercepting the bombers and attacking the other headhunters. You're tasked to bomber escort and ally overwatch.

Make that confusion your post? You're character is used to one unquestioned authority figure giving all the orders and now everyone from ensign to commander is making requests and shouting orders and strategies. It makes sense you'd be confused especially since its been years since a dogfight for you.

Character Name: Erdric Tershin
Species:Human
Gender: Male
Biography:Erdric was born in Coruscant, his mother a restaurant manager and his father a merchant. The family lived in one of the poor parts of the planet and under the imperial rule Erdric would constantly see his mother be harassed by gangsters and stormtroopers alike. He grew up in an environment of constant violence and uncertainty among friends and family alike. Because of this he had to learn how to deal with daily challenges and evade conflict when possible but know how to act if necessary. However, he always enjoyed the times when family was together, even if it was only a couple of days before his father went off again.

Eventually Erdric's father did not come back, his ship and crew killed by the imperials during a so called "inspection", this when Erdric was barely 17. It left the rest of his family devastated and even more vulnerable since his father worked for infamous Dathomirian crime lord Colodis Reful, who did not take the news lightly. Colodis forced Erdric to work for him in his protection racket, since Erdric was the oldest male in the family. Erdric began to learn how to operate and pilot different kinds of ships, eventually making his own crafted land speeder. Erdric rose through the ranks in Reful's mafia and eventually became one of his close lieutenants at the age of 22. This allowed Erdric to give his family security from both gangs and imperial security forces.

As Erdric began to smuggle for Colodis, he became more and disheartened by the life of crime he had been force to take. Eventually Imperial security began to crack down on Colodis mafia ring more and more, under the pressure of Lord Vader himself, who saw the mafia ring as a threat to the Imperial power in the planet. This began the downfall of Colodis criminal empire, and Erdric had seen the fire burning way before it was lit. Erdric fought against Imperial crackdown forces alongside his fellow partners in crime, however he soon saw that it was a loosing battle, especially with Vader himself pulling the strings.

Erdric began to smuggle money and supplies in order to eventually get his family out of Coruscant. However, Colodis found out of this and ratted out Erdric's family to the imperials, telling them that he was the real boss behind the entire mafia. Vader himself assured Colodis his protection and that Erdric would be dealt with. Before Erdric could do anything, he found his family slaughter by the imperials. His mothers last words "Turn away from this life... look forward... for us..."

Broken and filled with anger Erdric, along with other members of the mob who also had been betrayed by their former boss stormed the compound were he was being protected by the imperials. Most of the fighters died from Imperial blasters except Erdric and a few other, who caught to Colodis and killed him. However, Vader had arrived to the compound and dispatch most of the remaining mobsters easily, except for Erdric, who managed to get away before getting killed.

Erdric commandeered an imperial TIE fighter and flee the planet. Hopeless and saddened by his family's death he attempted to commit suicide, however he soon found hope when he reluctantly joined the rebel alliance, becoming a soldier and fighter for them. This while in a bar fight in one of the many planets in the Outer Rim, he managed to overpower many rebel soldiers before being tackled down. The rebels impressed by his resilience, and the fact that Erdric was also famous for having captured an Imperial fighter, decided to offer him a spot in their lines. With his past haunting him, Erdric now fights for the rebellion in order to destroy the ones who took his life away from him and to find redemption one way or another.

Updated the Order of Battle again based off the last few posts.

Three Y-wings have been lost from Griffin Wing all due to damage from TIEs and Pathfinder is still capable of fighting but is currently becalmed and badly damaged.

The Empire has lost 10 TIEs so far, the majority of the Casualties caused by Zek's flight of Storm Squadron (Flight 2) against squadron K-083.

The momentum of battle is currently favoring the Empire. The most intense fighting is happening near Flight 2.

This is the time when the Y-Wings should already drop their damn bombs, and the CR-90s come in to duke it out with the Tartans to pressure home their point...

That will happen in the next update. I'm still waiting on some people especially in Flight 1 to make combat posts.

Sorry fellas, couldn't keep up to this momentum; my exam's in an hour and ten minutes. Depending on how I feel when I get back I'll read over the IC and make my post.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

Yeah, but all of them missing? I was assuming that we were within range, that's at least what the updates from yourself and Bei made it seem like, so I thought that it would be more than alright to fire a volley. Unless the targeting computer of the Z-95 is that bad and the homing mechanisms on the concussion missiles are somehow defective, I'm not sure how those missiles would miss if we were already within the range of an engagement with them.

He grew up in an environment of constant violence and uncertainty among friends and family alike. Because of this he had to learn how to deal with daily challenges and evade conflict when possible but know how to act if necessary. However, he always enjoyed the times when family was together, even if it was only a couple of days before his father went off again.

Eventually Erdric's father did not come back, his ship and crew killed by the imperials during a so called "inspection", this when Erdric was barely 17. It left the rest of his family devastated and even more vulnerable since his father worked for infamous Dathomirian crime lord Colodis Reful, who did not take the news lightly. Colodis forced Erdric to work for him in his protection racket, since Erdric was the oldest male in the family. Erdric began to learn how to operate and pilot different kinds of ships, eventually making his own crafted land speeder. Erdric rose through the ranks in Reful's mafia and eventually became one of his close lieutenants at the age of 22. This allowed Erdric to give his family security from both gangs and imperial security forces.

As Erdric began to smuggle for Colodis, he became more and disheartened by the life of crime he had been force to take. Eventually Imperial security began to crack down on Colodis mafia ring more and more, under the pressure of Lord Vader himself, who saw the mafia ring as a threat to the Imperial power in the planet. This began the downfall of Colodis criminal empire, and Erdric had seen the fire burning way before it was lit. Erdric fought against Imperial crackdown forces alongside his fellow partners in crime, however he soon saw that it was a loosing battle, especially with Vader himself pulling the strings.

Erdric began to smuggle money and supplies in order to eventually get his family out of Coruscant. However, Colodis found out of this and ratted out Erdric's family to the imperials, telling them that he was the real boss behind the entire mafia. Vader himself assured Colodis his protection and that Erdric would be dealt with. Before Erdric could do anything, he found his family slaughter by the imperials. His mothers last words "Turn away from this life... look forward... for us..."

Broken and filled with anger Erdric, along with other members of the mob who also had been betrayed by their former boss stormed the compound were he was being protected by the imperials. Most of the fighters died from Imperial blasters except Erdric and a few other, who caught to Colodis and killed him. However, Vader had arrived to the compound and dispatch most of the remaining mobsters easily, except for Erdric, who managed to get away before getting killed.

Erdric commandeered an imperial TIE fighter and flee the planet. Hopeless and saddened by his family's death he attempted to commit suicide, however he soon found hope when he reluctantly joined the rebel alliance, becoming a soldier and fighter for them. This while in a bar fight in one of the many planets in the Outer Rim, he managed to overpower many rebel soldiers before being tackled down. The rebels impressed by his resilience, and the fact that Erdric was also famous for having captured an Imperial fighter, decided to offer him a spot in their lines. With his past haunting him, Erdric now fights for the rebellion in order to destroy the ones who took his life away from him and to find redemption one way or another.

NS Name: Ormata
Character Name: CZ-0414 “Sirocco”
Species: Human
Gender: Male
Biography: Sirocco was one of the many clones in the GAR. He was one of the Republic’s many pilots, though his job was far more specialized than most others; he did not fly fighters, but transports. These were not troop transports, but faux-vessels, looking like civilian freighters and packing firepower underneath. He was, as Omega Squad said, one of the crazies.

His career was a sparkling one, for the first ten months of the war. He chalked twenty kills, or a squadron of fighters, when he blew their fuel lines (The others said it didn’t count; there weren’t even flying!), participated in three Zero-G boardings, and had inserted a commando squad directly into a CIS cruiser. However, his record would be dented when, on a routine mission, a birdstrike decided to take-down his vessel, along with Orar Squad. The five of them had survived the crash, though it was patently obvious that they could not stick around. CZ-0414 would go on with them, aiding Orar Squad in blowing a factory and staging area. Due to injuries sustained in the operation, he would be transferring, temporarily, to Coruscant for recovery.

After three months in recovery, he would continue to fly well, operating in atmosphere and in space. He would be transferring several times, over Mygeeto, Kashyyyk, and Bothawui. He would be injured twice more, during other operations. However, when Order 66 was called, there was the slightest of issues. Sirocco was, very simply, flying two Jedi Padawans out of Eriadu, to rendezvous with forces in Utapau. The Padawans, needless to say, were not too pleased with the even, and forced Sirocco to land on a nearby planetoid. Soon after this, when Sirocco was attempting to fly back to Eriadu, he was shot-down by a flight of ARC-170s and taken into Imperial custody, for aiding Jedi.

He, and three other prisoners, were then to be transferred to Sullust for more intensive questioning, on-board a small cruiser. This would quickly meet it’s end, when the cruiser was set-upon by a squadron of five Recusant-class Light Destroyers, attempting to skirt Republic forces and get back to Felucia to recoup. Sirocco would be captured by these forces, and kept at Felucia.

However, his time there was not long in the least. An Imperial Offensive drove the CIS remnants out of the system, and in the insuing chaos, allowed Sirocco and some other prisoners to escape. Taking a civilian freighter off the planet, he would escape the Imperial blockade and take flight to Toola, a bastion of CIS-sentiment and a place that could harbor an individual. Despite his looks, the local population was surprisingly understanding, after some convincing.

Sirocco would fly several missions, for less-than-reputable merchants in the area, and always took significant precautions to hide his identity. Sirocco took to dressing as an Ubese, and the costume worked well with his less-than-amicable nature to most of the pirates he dealt with. Through these measures, he would gain some semblance of normality, during his stay on Toola.

However, his reputation preceded him, and when the Rebellion looked for recruits, they found him among the garbage. After some convincing, Sirocco joined the Rebel Alliance and Storm Squadron.
RP Example:
Mygeeto System
Yseult Cartier


"Well, it's now or never people. I bet there's another battalion coming this way! Lia, we gotta go!"

Yseult split-off from the other people. She had to get back to her home; they would find-out who she was, and then they would raid her home. And they would find things. They would learn of her credit-mining operations against the Mygeeto banks. Then they would shut it all down, and Yseult would be back to square one.

So, she split-off, running despite the snow and the blizzard. Despite the fact that she could see only a bit in front of her, she had memorized some of the city’s layout. She memorized routes out of it, to the spaceport, everywhere she needed to go when she had no time to plan. This was when it came in handy.

Turning a corner, she realized that she was not looking ahead with the Force, searching out the enemy, when the enemy was right there. They weren’t even that far away from each-other; perhaps they stood a yard, a meter, away. Yseult reacted without thinking.

Whipping her sword out, she used the same motion to cut one of their throats. The stormtrooper went along with the motion, hitting the ground as he vainly attempted to clutch his throat. The others quickly raised their weapons, and they most definitely did not say “Halt”. Before they could pull their triggers, however, she force-pushed all four of them into the wall, and ran-past the moaning soldiers.

However, she paused. The man on the ground was still groaning, and she leant-down to examine him. Pushing away his rapidly weakening hands, Yseult found that the cut was shallow, somewhat. She had not been aiming to behead the man. Concentrating, she stopped the bleeding, though there would still be some issues. Briefly, the Kuati wondered if he would get frostbite, yet...most likely not. The cut in the fabric was thin, and he would be fine. Wiping the blood away on the snow, and sheathing her sword, Yseult picked up the man’s rifle, a DC-15, before continuing on.

Yseult quickly reached her home, opening the door and taking, from underneath the bed, a device. It was a black box, with some gray protrusions, and a keypad. The weapon could be considered to be a thermal detonator, if one multiplied the power threefold. It would disintegrate the room and all evidence therein, and be a far quicker destroyer of evidence then digitally deleting everything.

Setting it for thirty seconds, she found her lightsaber, stowing it away, before activating it. The room had some fifty thousand credits, in various stashes, and some objects were worth just as much. She wasn’t going to attempt to get it. The money was merely there for such transactions as had happened that day, for paying employees. There was far more online, and her programs were online as well. They could run without her.

Then she ran, for the spaceport, running for her ship. Yseult had no intent to join the two others; Kanan was nice, and Lia was a smuggler, yet as it was, they were passing acquaintances. Her ship would get her away far, far quicker.
