The War of Vector Cluster (FT, Invite Only)

[The Samoan Federation]

Vector Prime

Vector Prime with its one moon and ring, were recently discovered by a Samoan Federation Expeditionary Force in a newly discovered sector of space. A licked information of the planets geological finding showed that the planet had a high concentration of Trilliom under its planetary crust. Trilliom is a rare mineral that in its liquid form can be refined to allow any matter conduced engine run at 50 light years an hour. This news has pushed national Leaders to think of war against this single planetary worrier nation for a very valuable material.

The going price of a quart of Trilliom goes for 10 thousand pounds of gold ($180,438,577.69 USD) on the current legal market.

Vector Cluster System

Vector Cluster has a White Hypergiant for a Star named Gor along with 3 terrestrial planets and 6 Gas Giants along and an asteroid belt.

Nome, the planet closets to Gor can not be entered without shield tech and an abandoned factory outpost, Outpost Little Man.

Vector Prime only has one colony, Samtom City, Its one moon Victoria has the base elements to build outpost.

Overgone the last terrestrial planet has a sustainable Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Carbon Dioxide thin atmosphere and has no colonies or outpost. It has the base elements to repair and build Space Traveling Ships. Its moons Isabella has the base elements to build space stations, the second moon Nathans has base elements to start 15 colonies.

The asteroid belt has all elements and an abandoned pirate base and mining colony with refinery and space dock that were wiped out by the Federation.

The 6 Gas Giants (Teholo, Monoful, Hydos, Galamay, Amustful, and Matternal) are able to be entered and made of base Nitrogen, Helium, Hydrogen, and Methane elements. The first gas giant has a Federation Fueling Station of Liquid Hydrogen. The federation also has a Science Station on the 5th gas giant that contains deposits of natural anti-matter under it iced Nitrogen atmosphere.

The deep space of the system past the 6th gas giant has a Space Gate left over from an ancient species.

[The Samoan Federation]

In response to the leaked information of the new Federation planet Emperor Toa "The Traveler" Fuga of the Royal Family has put the nations military on a high alert.

The Emperor had this to say at a military conferince," This nation has a clam to this planet for we had spent the time to discover, although there where pirates and a mining colony in the system all was abandoned, even the odd structure in the outer parts of the system, this planet is Samoan Territory, that is final. I, as Emperor, have mustered the Federal 1st Army along with the 10th Fleet and sending them to Vector System to protect my citizens investment.

The Emperor has issued Mono Poly and put all reserve forces on stand-by. As for the 1st Federation Army of 20 million troopers and the 10 Fleet which contains 100 Battle-Cruisers, 5,000 Cruisers, 20 Transports and 10,000 Support Ships, will be sent to Vector Prime led by Warcheif Goloman and Commodore Fiema to secure to honor of the Federation.

Federation News

The Colonial Expedition forces have been sent to Federation Code: Dark with the escalation of foreign military forces attempting to enter Vector Cluster system.

Military Blockades have ceased all landing of none Federation ships to the surface of Vector Prime. Amustful Science space station has been transformed into a research military facility under the military martial law in the area. This has put a strain on Federation Military budgets and in response the Emperor has seen it necessary to send in the might of the professional army of the 6th, 7th, and 10th Imperial Army of 2 Million Veteran Troopers and Airman of the Neo-Nazi Conflict. His Royal majesty has also seen it fit to send in the 1st Royal Fleet of 300 Battle Cruisers, 1,000 Cruisers, and 100 Transports.

This now brings the Federation Forces in the Sector to:
22 Million Ground Troopers
400 Battle Cruisers
6,000 Cruisers
10,000 Support Craft
and 110 Transports

No conflict in the system yet and no decoration of war has been issued to or from any conflicting nation.

[Empire of Atmora]

The Empire of Atmora response to the War of Vector Cluster to allow the Atmoran Space Command permission to intervene in the War.

Emperor Daral and Empress Sierra has allowed four Emperor and Empress class Warships to go into the Vector Cluster.

Atmoran Fighters have been scouting the Vector Cluster. Commander Fallon of the 60th Star Legion has found a nice moon to step up a temporary Fort.

[Stormwrath]

Unlike other nations, Stormwrath preferred to trade in their goods for resources they don't possess. With the discovery of trilliom in Vector Prime, the government knew it can't pass this opportunity down. Stormwrathian Investors scrambled to cash in on the discovery.

A starship was sent to the home planet of the Samoan Federation. It locked itself in orbit and sent a transport ship with the investors to the surface. A diplomat is also there to strike a deal with the Samoan government; that the Stormwrathian government will defend the Federation's claim to Vector Prime.

[Northern Arcadian Empire]

Vector Prime-
The ships dropped out of orbit, coming upon the moon of Vector pirme
"Sir, we have other ships is the area"
"Make a heading for the otherwise of the moon I want two gunships departed one unarmed and heading to the commanding ship, and the other armed and sent to the moon with flags to claim a 10milie by 12 mile area!"
"Aye Aye"

Two gunships departed the command ship one heading to the commanding ship of the other fleet and the other to the moon

[The Samoan Federation]

Samoan Emperor refuses to see delegates from the Stormwrath Empire as he sits in the War Room in the Imperial Palace. Ambassador Temel, Samoan Federation newly appointed Trilliom Trade Negotiator, along with Royal Warchief Feilem, Royal Guard Commanding Officer, set up a meeting with Stormwrath Emissaries with this proposal

Federation Trade Agreement

Federation Transports will Import Trilliom with a trade payment of 200 million Anguses (= to USD) per quart, along with a shipping tax of 1/4th market price. The federation would also wish the transfer of power of Fenrir, 3rd planet of the Stormwrath Empire.

The Federation also demands a 100 Million Anguses of Federation Industrial goods before a trade of Trilliom will be accepted. Another request that the INACT PMC Organization be prepossed to the MSU to be its quick response military force and be payed for there military assistance.

These are the request of the Samoan Federation and its peoples best interest.

Signed the Emperor of the Empire of the Samoan Federation

As the Trade Agreement is handed over to the Stormwrath diplomat, Federation Home Fleet circle around the delegates ships and place the ships on lock down on the Orbital Elevator until delegates leave the system.

Fr: Prime Minister Cassandra Fairs of the Empire of Stormwrath
Subj: Rejection of terms stated in agreement

Greetings Emperor. Thank you for taking the time to write a letter to us. However, we politely refuse your proposals that were stated in the agreement you propose. Fenrir is a very valuable source of hydrogen and other gases, and its moons provide redstone and altarium. And if you wish to provide the Multi-Species Union with a quick response military force, you may inquire of them.

I hope our nations will still be on good terms. May your nation prosper, and best of luck to you.

Sincerely,

//Cassandra Fairs//
Prime Minister of the Empire of Stormwrath

Research teams were sent to explore the Vector Cluster, and they found a planet which holds vast amounts of trilliom. The government then staked a claim on that world can called it Luce, which means "Glorious Light" in Elumbish. It was orbiting a bright yellow star, and lies within the Goldilocks Zone, which is the zone where life can be found and liquid water is present. Transport ships came over to the planet, transporting materials and equipment to establish a colony.

[Empire of Atmora]

Atmoran workers are nearly done with the new city of Elserin. They have completed the Walls,Chapel,Palace,and military base.

Atmoran miners have found tons of valuable resources while mining in New Tessia.The TMS Tessia comes down to resupply the workers and miners and picks up the resources.

[Stormwrath]

The transport ships landed in a certain area in Luce which they called Secundis Terram or Favorable Land in Elumbish. It was mostly plains, with rolling hills to the southwest, and mountains rich in trillium to the southeast. The nearest body of water to Secundis Terram is the Mare Prospero, or the Prospero Sea. The coastline lies 46 miles northwest of where the ships have landed. So far there are no signs of intelligent life on this planet, whether it be the native inhabitants or more space colonists, but that remains to be seen.

After a hard day's work, the 24,000 Stormwrathian settlers established their first settlement there, called Secundis. Nearby the settlement was a river, which they named the Percival River after the Emperor. The plains, hills and the nearby forest had a vast amount of resources to ensure the survival of the colony. Secundis became the first city to spring forth on the planet's surface. While workers went to mine trillium, the robots built various installations around the plains.

Up in orbit, a space station was constructed for ships to repair or transport goods between Luce and the rest of Stormwrath's interstellar empire. A space elevator was also constructed in the Prospero Sea to deliver goods to the planet's surface. Since trillium is rich in the Vector Cluster, and because many nations are scrambling to claim pieces of the cluster as their own, Luce's nearby natural satellite (called Vicina) served as an outpost for the Stormwrath Space Command and a base for the empire's power projection in that certain part of the Vector Cluster.

Some colonists arrived in Luce to get away from the troubles that their previous world had given. Others came here to do business and invest in the future of the colony. Still others happen to be poor, hoping that they will prosper in this new land. And still others are quite eager to start a new life on the surface of another world. Interstellar communication helped the colonists bring the good news to the Stormwrathian government in Zero, and they congratulated them for their success. Now the next challenge to face is how to keep the colony in Stormwrathian hands.

[The Samoan Federation]

A Federation Battle Cruiser,the "Steel Worrier" crosses past the newly constructed deep space station outside the Gor System. All is quite till the engines rumble and the alarms blare in the clean polished corridors of the ship. "All hand brace for Slip-Space Jump at 34x Light Speed!" yelled a voice over the PA, it repeated the same words over and over again as the red strobe light ran circles around the hallways.

TFC Temono, a young worrier from the home world, ran to his squads barracks where there gel chambers were located. "Colmer!" the trooper yelled at a man ahead of him," Why are we jumping?" They continued to run next to each other at an equal pace.

"Federation War Counsel received intel of pirates near the Stormwrath Planet and as far as they are concered that planet is Fed Space and pirates are not alowed in our Empire." Said Colmer. They entered their gel chambers and he continued," Those damn Stormwraths' take a planet belonging to the Fed and we have to swing in and take care of a pirate threat, sounds like the Emperor at his core, E filemu fa'amaluma lulotogatasi Brother!!"

"What would the universe be like without our love and protection, huh?" Asked Temono sarcastically, smiling.

"Well defiantly more peaceful," Laughed another trooper next to them," but who wants peace?"

"Not us Captain Worrier!!" Yelled the whole barracks.

"Good" The capsules closed and filled with a blue gel that held them in a stand up suspension awake.

They Jumped into Slip-Space and exited a few hours later to face a large pirate space fortress near a star system 15 light years from Stormwrath occupied space. 2 Battle Cruisers vs 120 Pirate Freights and Fortress Deference.

Federation Forces Fighting with Pirates in an Unknown sector of Space

[Stormwrath]

"Sir!", reported a space marine to a certain sergeant. "We have just received word that space pirates are heading towards the planet!" He showed his data pad to him which pictured the pirates' current location.

Immediately the sergeant ordered his subordinate, "Ready our forces. We will have to defend the planet fr-"

"Sir!", reported another space marine. "The Samoan Federation is coming with ships to capture Luce and Vicina!"

The sergeant quickly pointed to him and said, "Well what are you standing there for corporal? Ready our defenses and our forces."

"Y-yes sir." As the two soldiers left his presence, he lighted a cigar pipe and said to himself, "Since when did the Federation say that all of the Vector Cluster belongs to them? I should inform the higher-ups about this..."

Colonel Jay Marion arrived as the sergeant said those words. "Tell us what, Hamilton?", he said in a crisp tone.

Hamilton straightened himself up and reported, "Colonel, our units have received word about a space pirate fortress about 15 lightyears from Luce. Aside from that, The Samoans are planning to take the planet and the nearby outposts in Vicina."

Marion then turned and ordered his liaison, "Send a message to the Samoan Fleet. These pirates are as much of a threat to us as to them." And she quickly tapped on the screen of her data pad to type a message to the Samoan Fleet.

Code: Select all

To: Captain of the Samoan Interstellar Fleet
Fr: Colonel Jay Marion, Stormwrath Space Marines
Encryption: Medium

Greetings.

We have noticed in our scanners that space pirates have been detected near our space territory. We wish to aid you in defeating these pirates and restoring order there. In return for helping you we would like your government to recognize our claim to Luce, as the Vector Cluster is large enough for each nation to receive at least one celestial body to colonize. We do not wish to fight you, but if you wish to attack us we are not afraid to stand our ground. I hope you consider our request tactfully.

Kudos to you.

Sincerely,

Lasers and balls of plasmic bolts rushed through the empty void of space as the Federation Battle Cruiser "Steel Worrier" blasted its 56th ship kill. Rushing through the ranks of the pirate ships to the fortress the Fed ship "Steel Worrier" rushed. Its sister ship "Lotogatasi" cut the straglers.

"Captain Telino!" Yelled the Communications Officer of the Lotogatasi," We have a transmission from the Stormwrath Empire, transferring data to you data pad now, lou."

"Transfer power to the starboard cannons, all who try to escape the perimeter will be destroyed," Yelled the Captain to the crew," Get the Boarding Marines ready for surrendering ships." Telino looked over his data pad, read the proposal. "Damn outsiders, this is why the Federation cant transfer trade." He typed a response, short because of the battle but to the point. "send this to there so called intelligence or command, we have a shipping lane to secure."

Federation Response

Federation Invasion not in planning. Currently clearing space trade lines to Talos Station for traded goods.

Federation troops can not negosiate land disbutes only goverment officials.

Ships are currently 15 light years outside your nations borders and no support is needed.

Federation Forces Out.

Several Atmoran Warships come out of slip space

A soldier enters the bridge "Sir Federation ships, Pirate, And stromwrath ships located in this sector"

Admiral Brooks "Fire all Ion cannons and launch all fighters we going into battle"

"But sir we be out numbered"

"Then call the Emperor's Fleet and the 7th Fleet to enter we just turn back".

Admiral Brooks calls up Emperor Daral

"Your Imperial Highness I am requesting your personal fleet and the 7th fleet into action"

"Ok admiral but I don't wanna see a scratch on any of my ships you hear"

"As you wish"

About 5 hours later the 7th fleet and the Emperor's Fleet show up.

Admiral Brooks messages all ships to enter the battle

"Alright boys and girls prepare for a living hell!"

[Stormwrath]

14.2 light years from Luce

The battlecruiser SXS Tempest was patrolling the sector for pirates that probably slipped through the battle with the Federation. Admiral Coolidge was commandeering the ship when he got an alert from his scanners.

Warning: Unidentified ships detected.

He then tapped a few spots on his touchscreen panel and the AI analyzed the signature of these warships. After 2.4863611 seconds the data came back as Atmoran warships, and it also detected signatures of ion cannons preparing to fire. "Oh that's just great", he mumbled to himself. "First there's pirates and now this?" He then ordered his men, "To your battle stations men. We could get in the line of fire." He turned back to his computer. "U-Dot?"

A young girl's voice spoke, "Yes admiral?"

"Prepare the redstone energy shield. Analyze and concentrate the shield energy on where they will strike."

"Already on it. You just keep your cool sir."

The ion cannon from the Atmoran warship fired at the port side of the Tempest, and the shield completely blocked the blast and absorbed its energy. "So the Atmorans are an ally in name only..." He then radioed these Stormwrathian ships that are near the Tempest's vicinity: The battleship SXS Halimia, the battlecruisers SXS Watchtower and SXS Solatium, the fleet carriers SXS Matthias and SXS Jacqueline, four destroyers and five corvettes. They then arrived at the scene to help the Tempest fend off the Atmorans, who have decided to attack not only Stormwrath's, but all other space fleets regardless of their nationality.

[The Samoan Federation]

Master of Fight Felno Tominaly, the NCO of military police of the "Steel Worrier" was transporting pirate criminals from the stronghold that just surrendered to the federation. A sudden shake of the hallways and the disgrundled cussing and growning of the prisoners made the Master of Fight very unsettled.

"You, Spearsman," he asked a trooper running down the hallway," what is going on out there?"

"The Lotogatasi, shes been hit by an unknown ship," the trooper continued to move on," all personal are to go to battle stations back on the ship, Pirates are to be main priority for you and your men."

"Roger that trooper, you heard them lets load them up quickly." said the Master of Fight

Minutes later the Master of Fight passed a window that showed the space outside. As he looked out the window a bright blue and yellow light appeared in the distance, dancing as the light pierced the dark emptiness of it all.

"All soldier," yelled a voice over the PA," The Lotogatasi has just been destroyed, evacuate to the ship immediately and search and rescue teams assemble in hanger bay 1 through 4 ASAP!!!"

Felno thought to himself, My brother, he... he was on that ship. a tear fell down his face, May our ancestors guide you to the lights.

Steel Worrier Bridge

"Captain," yelled the XO," we have 2 Atmoran Warships out there, they got the jump on us and the Captain of the Lotogatasi thought it was the Stormwraths and didn't fire at them leaving them wide open to enemy fire, lou, we can not keep this position."

The Captain thought on it," I agree, send out the fighters and occupy those Warships so we can gather the escape pods, No Worrier Left Behind, as is our honor."

The fighters made multiple runs against the Warships but could not slow them down enough. This only allowed to save a few life's' before the ship had to escape to Slip-Space to escape by the skin of there teeth.

[New Roma Republic]

NRS Enterprise-D
The captain was in his ready room, reading War and Peace, his long term book read. The ship was a Galaxy Class Starship, right out of Star Trek. New Roma Republic has always followed Star Trek since the founding of Starfleet in 2014. Even the uniforms were the same. Bleep The captain looked up, "Come in" he said. The first officer, Commander Fredrik Greywolf came in. "Sir, there may be an issue about 7 light years away." The captain got up. "Let's go see." and he strode onto the bridge.

The Captain's Chair war right in front of the tactical console. He sat down in it. "What do long range sensors indicate?"
"Unknown sir, but there are plasma discharges, along with traces of the element Trilliom."
"Trilliom? If Starfleet got their hands on that, oh my! Engine, head for that cluster, Warp 7. Tactical, sent a message to the nearest Starbase. Let them know what is going on." The pressure go more intense as they sped up to Warp 7, but the Inertial Dampeners were doing their job.
