OOC: Erm, carno, Galactica has very advanced sensor systems. I think they would have detected the Ravens. It's okay though, I'll let it pass for now.
Azdgari System
Things were not looking good for the Galactica fleet. At the moment they still outnumbered the Confederate Alliance fleet, but that could soon change. "Engage reverse thrusters and get the Voit about a kilometer from the battle." ordered Admiral Harip. "And order the fleet to switch their Miniguns into Point Defense mode... those missiles are hitting us hard."
As the G.E.S. Voit gained some distance from the battle, a few other ships followed it and formed up around it. One of these was the G.E.S. Tempest, a Warcruiser. The captain of the Tempest opened a channel to the Voit and said, "Sir! This is Captain Gerai of the Tempest! I have an idea!"
The two officers spoke for a minute, then cut the channel and activated their gravity emitters. The Tempest's Weapons Officer noted, "Plenty of usable debris out there, Captain Gerai. This will work perfectly." At that, the two ships began to work together to create a large gravity well. The Galactica ships were notified and fired their thrusters, but a few unwary Alliance ships were pulled in and crumpled up together like paper. Debris from the battle around them began to fly into the well, and soon there was a giant mass of wreckage, nearly the size of a Support Cruiser. Then the Warcruisers drew the mass of wreckage away from the battlefield a bit, and charged their Emitters even further.
"Now!" yelled Captain Gerai on the Tempest. At his word, the two colossal ships hurled the collected wreckage at the Alliance Flagship. The already weakened shields were unable to withstand such an impact, and the projectile smashed into the armor, nearly splitting the ship in two. "Right, we weakened it. Keep following the plan!" ordered Gerai.
The two ships then stopped combining their Gravity Emitters, and split the large one apart to create two wells. One was positioned at the Flagship's bow, one at its stern. With a great noise of tortured, twisting metal the ship tore in two, the front half smashing forward into the Alliance forces and the other half flying off into space. The two Warcruisers then circled around the back of the now encircled Alliance Forces, and began to pummel the fleet with weapons fire.
Admiral Harip turned to his Communications Officer and said, "Call for reinforcements. We'll need more than this if we are to hold this system."
Zanat System
The Galactica forces in Zanat were doing much better than they had been doing in Azdgari. The Ravens had produced much chaos, but when the Galactica forces organized themselves they surrounded and wreaked havoc upon the Alliance ships. A few well placed gravity wells shot a few Ravens into the Alliance fleet, where they exploded under a Galactica missile barrage. The Alliance forces were being beaten back, but the battle wasn't over yet.
The Antimatter Bomb is completed, and is being fitted to all new Galactica ships. It can be mounted on all ships, and requires no launcher. If it is put in a Missile Pod, the Bomb can be fitted with a short ranged propulsion system to help get it going.
The multiple stage missile, still unnamed, is progressing well in development.
Galactica shipyards have started working overtime, bolstered with forced labor from Saalia prisoners. Galactica ships are much cheaper and easier to mass produce than Alliance ships, and soon Galactica should have a large numerical advantage over the Confederate Alliance.
