Oasa, you have been captured (rescued?) by me. You have a choice to join the renegades and be set free with a cresent warship given to you, or be left to die in space.

Continuation:
"Daedalus, we have recieved a transmission from the Igadzra, they agree to our terms and are sending 7 Igadzras. They have also stopped all attacks agoinst Renegade Planets and are once again at war with the Agdzari."

"Thank you luitenenant. I want gaurds searching the base for Captain Carnotaur. Lock all sections and access tubes. I expect retaliation from his father and allies, tell the scouts to expand their control. Let the renegades defend the North Tip. Enemies will come from Emphalga space, contact them and see if we can sign a treaty."

Oasa, are you with me or not. I will let you go to aquire a fleet if you like. An alliance between Voinians and Renegades could be very powerful.

Meanwhile: Deep inside F-25 scientist are nearing a major defensive breakthrough.

Yes. I am with you Daedelus. On one condition: every month, the Renegades will provide ten million litres of deuterium to Voina. In exchange, we will provide neutron technology to your ships. Do we have a deal?

Daedelus consented, and Oasa left for Voina with the wonderful news. His project would be completed only a year late, he didn't need to secure a Miranu planet, crippled the Miranu's capability to travel through space ( no fuel), found a powerful ally, and was still alive.

oasa gets to Voina safely - ok?

------------------

"SIR! SIR!! THE AZDGARI!!! They're attacking!!" yelled the sensor officer for the outpost on F-25.

"What!!?? How could they do that! They couldn't have arrived so soon!!" daedalus shouted.

The Azdgari fleet hyperspaced in. There were 16 Warships, and 24 Aradas. The Azdgari fleet, commanded by Intimidator, easily annihilated daedalus's Renegade fleet and defense force. Then, 7 Azdgari warships landed on the planet, and started to offload troops. daedalus had underestimated Intimidators vengefulness. The Azdgari troops quickly surround the main base and sent in commandoes to find Carnotaur. They soon found him in Admiral Borbs quarters, tying up Borb. They quickly left the base, and returned to their vessels. After all the Azdgari fleet was back in orbit, they began an orbital bombardment of the Renegades on the planet. They also sent a message saying that unless daedalus and his Renegade friends would surrender, they would annihilate them all.

Then, Intimidator got some good news. The war with the Igadzra was going quite well, they could not compete with the Azdgari vessels. The 7 Igazras that the Igadzra were sending was reduced to two vessels (an Azdgari raiding fleet encountered them).

As the bombarbment continued, Intimidator and Carnotaur waited for more Azdgari reinforcements, and daedalus's surrendur. Will daedalus surrender?

Oasa, may our alliance bring eternal suffering to our enemies. Your first shipment of fuel is on its way. We have signed a treaty with the Emphalga and have paid your debts to them.

Once agian you forgot about the 50 cloaked heavy freighters. Which jumping in shortly after the orbital bombardment began. A tremendous fight, both sides were taking tremendous losses but 10,000 Renegades were still able to land. No side was winning the space battle when suddenly the entire planet vanished.

The attacking Agdzari were temporarily baffled giving the Icorus's Wing to lead a Vanguard of Turncoats into the enemy forces effectively deviding them. While the Kraits teamed up in the agdzari dog-fights, the warships were brought to their knees after sustaining heavy damage from the freighters.

On the F-25 all fighting stopped. The entire planet was bathed in blackness. The intimator was recorded leaving the system with 2 other Warships as the battle subsided.

Daedalus was seen laughing about something concerning the Agdzari and forgetful elephants.

Meanwhile, a large Renegade fleet flies into Igadzra space after many victories in the South Tip.

But then, a dozen other Azdgari ships hyperspaced in.

"Sir, I am detecting no life signs on those warships, just an unusual energy signature..."

Suddenly the dozen Azdgari warships charged the 500 upgraded Miranu heavy freighters, while four of them split off and headed towards F-25. At that moment daedalus, along with the scientist which had made F-25 seem to disappear, decided that he might want to leave the system. As his CW prepared to leave, all 1 dozen Azdgari warships exploded in a massive explosion that looked like a super nova. All 500 MHF were vaporized, and the explosion annihilated F-25s atmosphere. As the explosion continued, a shock wave hit daedalus's vessel, killing half its crew and severely crippling it. But, daedalus was able to hyperspace out.

daedalus's vessel headed towards the nearest Renegade system, not knowing what had happened to his planet and fleet. Once he reached a Renegade outpost, he was told the news. F-25 was now a chunk of molten rock about the size of Luna. Every Renegade in that system had died. Apparently the Azdgari used a new kind of explosive to destroy everything in that system. Now the F-25 system was filled with molten rock and gases. daedalus was told that he would not be able to go back, until the hyperspace links stabilized.

Then daedalus got even worse news: Intimidator and Carnotaur had escaped and were building up a massive fleet to attack the Renegades. daedalus didn't know what too do.

-----------------

Meanwhile, Oasa and a few Voinian scientists waited for the arrival of the first Renegade shipment of deuterium, which should be arriving any second now.

Suddenly, three ships hyperspaced in. They were disabled Renegade arada, being towed by another heavy damaged Renegade Arada. There was also a Crescent fighter that was starting to disintigrate. No freighters. No deuterium.

When the Renegade ships docked, Oasa learned the cause: An Azdgari warfleet had decloaked and destroyed the convoy freighters.

And the Azdgari said they would do it again.

how come carno/intimidator always gets these magical instantaneous reinforcements whereas everyone else always has their ships destroyed/boarded? :mad:

------------------

Well Captain Carnotaur, I see you have sacrificed your fleet for revenge. Although I took heavy losses when you cut through my territory I am not defenseless.
-------------

Daedalus Hypered into the Hizdriar system where renegade officials were waiting for him.

"Daedalus, we have heard that you took many personal losses while defending the alliance and we thank you. From the vast resources we have aquired from the Miranu worlds we have built a moderate fleet of cresent warships and Aradas. We give you command of this fleet to use as a weapon against the Agdzari. A south tip fleet already awaits your inspection in Igdzara space. We will continue defending our boarders."

"Thank you for your generocity. I will avenge the Renegade Alliance for the Crimes of Intimator and the Agdzari."

------------------
----------------------
"Better to remain silent and be thought an idiot, than to speak and remove all doubt."

keep in mind daedelus, you can now retrofit your ships with armor and neutron tech legally...

------------------

Yes, the Icorus's Wing now has Voinian armor and Neutron Turrets. It is headed with a Renegade fleet to the Igdzara.

Oaso, are you still working on that fuz technology?

------------------

"Better to remain silent and be thought an idiot, than to speak and remove all doubt."

(This message has been edited by daedalus (edited 12-02-2000).)

yeah, but your pers doesn't know about it - all he know is that we want fuel and lots of it.

------------------

Then Intimidator and Carnotaur go to Roostersw and Bubaganoosh. Intimidator explains an action that they might take: "daedalus is growing too strong, we must stop him. Even with our supernova explosives, daedalus is far too powerful. I suggest that we go to Oasa and offer him Admiral Borb, which we have recently captured using one of my commando teams. In exchange for Borb, we will ask for a cease fire and peace talks between us. We will also ask for the return of some of the fuzzes so we can repopulate Ursla. With Oasas help we can defeat daedalus. He is too much trouble, and so we must get rid of Oasa, with diplomacy. With him on our side, daedalus stands no chance. We could also offer to help him conquer whatever place the Renegades have that is giving them all that deuterium. We could even give Oasa of bit of deuterium ourselves. What do you say? We get less fighting and more victory with an alliance with Oasa. Well? What is your answer Rooster and Buba?"

Rooster and Buba reply...

Oasa, we are doubling your fuel supply with resources from the Igadzra. Hope your research is progressing nicely. In case you are wondering where I get the fuel, a little is taken from each of the Renegade and Igadzra planets. Our enemies would have to conquer the Renegade Alliance and Igadzra to obtain all of our fuel.

Then, daedlus gets horrifying news: The Igadzra have broken off ALL ties with daedlus and his Renegades. They have now resumed their offensive against the ST Renegades. They also appear to have called a cease fire with the Azdgari, a very bad move for daedlus.

As a distraction to the rest of the galaxy, Borb Station slowly is rebuilt from it's scattered wreckage. A quarter of the deuterium received from the Renegages is used for this project.

---

Meanwhile, construction of the planet/warship slowly begins. A mining team begins excavating for fuel storage. Another team is raising and slaughtering fuzzes on the planet (there's still a colony on Voina in the event someone blows those Fuzzes up). And yet another is getting the engines ready. At all times, a fleet of seventy cruisers is one jump away from Cthlus in the event something should happen. But for all intents and purposes, it seems as though the Voinans are using the deuterium to rebuild the station, with the cruisers as guards. Anyone who lands on Cthlus will find only rocks due to the RDF*.

give me some reasons. that seems highly unlikely.

------------------

Hold on, the Iggies were against the Aggies, then with, then against, then with them. The strands NEVER ally with eachother. That is because of the Council Station. Before the Aggies were almost destroying the Iggies and then the Iggies just turn around and say "I have an idea, lets be friends, even though we have two Renegade fleets in a position to gut us in our weakened state (the reason they came, to defend us). It would be a good idea to declare war on them."

I think that inorder for the story to progress we need to give time for rooster and Boba to do something.

Whoa! slow down! I hereby revoke the timeline in which F-25 is destroyed, and the supernova weapon is hereby revoked. I'm sorry, but those two events break 4 story rules. F-25 is still intact, however there are no renegades left on the planet. The Igadzra are allied with the Renegades until Daedalus or I alter that. The following things are correct in contrary to the timeline:

The Emalgha are members of the Corocian Alliance.
The nation of Azdgari is a province of the Igadzra in this timeline. Rebellion would instantly destroy them.
The Zidagar and Igadzra are the only remaining strands at war.

You can find proof of these in the intro. I strongly feel we should make no ties with the Oasans. It would provide peace, but it would severely tip the power in the continuation of their Fuzz project. Carno, please lay out our (Corocians) current position in a simple manner so i can catch up.

It is not fear that will destroy you, but the absence of it.
