Attack status on Kayia- Partial Sucess!
The Kayians knew that the renegades outnumbered them two to one and had
larger, stronger ships. They set a trap on the orbiting station, causing it to explode when an unlucky Dragon attempted docking. The Kayians fled up the crescent, leaving the planet uninhabited. The renegades have set up a base there and are starting to produce ships. Renegade influence is increased in the area, raising income by .05 million credits daily.
Renegade losses-
12 Kraits
4 Vipers
3 Helians
1 Dragon (the unlucky one)
0 Crescent warships (whee!)
0 Laziras
1 Arada
4 Crescent fighters
Kayian losses-
11 Crescent fighters
5 Aradas
1 Lazira
Their homeworld
And they all had to flee up the crescent to friendly Strandless worlds.
Each pilot in the raid made 750,000 each off the attack, with two million going to the common good.
I'm setting aside three million credits to build a defensive station in orbit of Kayia. Due to lack of funding, it should be done in 5 days realtime.
The biological weapons will be ready tomorrow.
35.80 million credits, growing by .90 million

I ask you to look both ways- for the road to the atom leads through the stars, and the road to the stars leads through the atom.

Yes Alien, the Corocian Supercruiser is being built on F-25, and it is guarded by almost all the ships of the Corocian Navy. Which, by the way, are really just normal Igadzra ships that have been upgraded with the latest in Corocian technology. Already the Corocian Supercruiser is over 2/3 complete, and soon it will be operation. A few more posts, and I'll be able to use it.

-----------

In the DSN-8789 and DSN-6008 systems, Corocian ships suddenly come out of hyperspace and immediately head towards the planets in both systems. Quickly, they set up small bases on both of them. The minefield guarding F-25 is also brought to the DSN-8789 system, and the Corocians make another one in DSN-6008. These two bases are to guard F-25 from any possible attack, and soon they will be completely operation and ready.

To the mods. What is my income?

------------------
--The Eye is Upon you--
If you look long enough the Sun isn't that bright.

Kiwi, your income is 1.5 million per day, but it is more volitale than others because you depend on raiding.

To Kiwi: Bad diplomatic move? We are at war with the Voinians. What do you want me to do, sit on hands while the Voinians use nuclear and chemical weapons to destroy billions of innocent UE civilians!? I think that you should mind your own business, unless you're saying that you want to defend the Voinians. In which case I suppose we would have to fight you as well. Bear in mind that we do not wish to fight against you, only the Voinians.

MESSAGE TO ALIEN AND TYCHO ENCRYPTED We have suffered heavy losses in our war with the Voinians. The Voinians have recieved technology from a guy named Carnotaur. His base is on F-25. We may be in over our heads in this war, and you guys are the only allies that we've got left. We request that you could send us some much needed supplies, for we have lost many worlds to Voinian nuclear attacks. We will pay you for this service if neccasary. We also request that the Zacha would take a more active role in our war. We are sending a strike force to attack F-25 to punish Carnotaur, and we would appreciate it if some Zachit came along to help us out. We can get past the Minefields with our defusion technology, but his ships might give us some trouble. Profuse thanks from the UE. END MESSAGE

36.70 million credits, growing by .90 million.
The Biological weapons are done. Prepare for a mass exodus from any planets upon which I vent my wrath...
The base on Kayia is growing steadily. More and more ST pirates are flooding in, anxious to make the former world of their opressors into their own personal domain. Unfortunately, pirates don't pay any taxes, so we can't get any money from them.
A fleet of Dragons, Turncoats, Kraits, and Helians is attacking Om as we speak. We'll hear whether the assault suceeded or failed tomorrow.
The skeletal frame of the defense station is going up. Slow progress is due to miniscule funding and the fact that only a few traders are willing to bring supplies to pirates.

<Entropy, right now I have a secret base in the DSN-6008, DSN-6160, and DSN-8789 systems. However, I have made a move against the UE, and now they want to punish me by attacking my bases (I have learned this from my spies). They say they can get past my minefields. So, I was wondering if your NT Renegades could help protect me. Hrekka is just two jumps away from one of my bases. Deal?>

On F-25...

Scorcher: "Carnotaur, we've completed the Corocian Supercruiser. It is now powering up and all its systems are being tested. Then, we will have it do a trial run, then it will be ready for combat."

Carnotaur: "Good. I want it ready as soon as possible. Be on the lookout for any UE ships. Activate the new long range scanner. If any enemy ship enters the Ji Nebula, put the fleet on alert and move the supercruiser to the correct position. How is the outfitting on all our ships coming?"

Scorcher: "Relatively good. We've already upgraded half our fleet with new photon, shield, and shield regeneration technology. Also, what is the name of this new supercruiser?"

Carnotaur: "Hmmm.... How about the C.R.S. Demon?"

Scorcher: "Good choice for such a powerful ship."

Carnotaur: "You've done well Scorcher. I may put you in for a promotion. Dismissed!"

"Ha, we've known the hyperlinks into the Ji for decades!! Mianni, could you come in here?" Pikera asks..

A tall, slender Zacha officer walks into the Elder's office and bows, syaing in a feminine voice, "An honor to see you sir. I am Mianni." Pikera nods and says,"Mianni, you are a species known as the Bomarri correct? From beyond the crescent correct?" Mianni nods and says, "My family came through the nebula you call the Ji many generations ago. We were fleeing from a horrible threat to our kind. But yes, my family has kept the records of the path we took, and it passes a planet called Jeakifai, the one you call F-25."

"Good, you may go Mianni, and thank you for your help." Pikera says, and Mianni walks out. Pikera turns to Tycho... "This is the info she gave us. Her kind came through a hyperlink that attaches to the Hrekka system, homebase of the North Tip renegades, and it's our only way through! Tycho, I'm giving you a fleet of 6 Zacha Crescent warships and any others you may gather to crush the Hrekka outpost so that we may use this jumplink. Pass this info on to the UE."

(The Miranu still do not know of the link that heads to the Elmalgha worlds or any others. Mianni's kind never took those routes.)

The Miranu begin giving supplies to the UE via the deadspace between their worlds..

If you are going to use the sacred name of my people i will take full advantage of the fact. I'm going to assume your in an office on a capitol planet or such right now.

Carnotaur walks into his office. A blue, transparent figure rises from the floor donned with fabric cloak. Carnotaur: "Who are you?" It suddenly flips it's head suddenly upward removing his hood. Carnotaur's eyes open wide as he sees his fallen comrade, a broken and troubled spirit. Rooster yells: "Do you not remember your good friend, Carnotaur! Do you not remember the toils of the Corocians! We fought for each other's people and now you defy their spirits by fighting the United peoples of Earth!" Carno: "But...you, i meant--" Rooster: "Silence! This resistence will be crushed!" The figure fades and Carnotaur tries to make sense of the event.

In a remote area deep in the ground away from the capitol...

Rooster takes off the image emitter and the cloak. "Hehe...he'll pay, and expect spirits on top of that." Aeshek: "Yes, but where do we go from now?" Rooster: "Can we cloak the Pultaq to a deep enough frequency and still use STS transfer?" Liam: "Yeah, but we couldn't run anything but normal engines for quite a while after such a powerdown. What do you plan to do?" Rooster: "Find the nearest "Corocian" vessel, and i'll board it." Liam looks blank. Rooster: "Have you forgotten i still have an official (though slightly outdated) Corocian lifepad? You can do a coax STS and switch my body with one of a Corocian crewman walking near the hull's edge." Laim simply smiles and the Pultaq rises off cloaked into the atmosphere towards the target ship.

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

Rooster, this is The Dark Tide, not the LBS or Red Horizon story boards. In this one, you do not exist, neither did your Corocians, neither did my big empire, neither do life pads, and neither did the war between us. However, if you want to join the story board, I will willingly allow you to be my second in command. I'll even give you an Igadzra Arada called the Pultaq. How about that?

P.S. Why don't you want me to use the name 'Corocians'?

The fact that you even asked why i care is insane...you should know better than that. I'm aware of what story this is...but since your using the name "Corocians" without asking i don't think you know. Therefore i'll assume at least for the fake corocians sake that i still exist and have all my "Corocian" technology.

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

Uh, what did you mean by that? Of course you exist, and of course you have all your technology, but not in this story board. In LBS, yes. In Dark Tide, NO.

I'm sorry about using the name "Corocian" without asking you, but honestly, how was I supposed to know? Besides, the only similarity between your Corocians and mine is the name, absolutely nothing else, AND I offered you a position in the Corocian Rebels if you want to join the story.

Anyway, back in the story, the C.R.S (Corocian Resistence ship) Demon was finally completed, and is now being tested.

You assume too much Carnotaur. You always did. Anyway nothing you just said seems to apply with my statement so the Pultaq is currently underway to it's target ship.
