(OOC:Yes, have my fleet stop firing weapons and forget my I.Aradsa number almost as many as your fighters. My fleet commanders really are that dim. Oh, and it's amazing how effective SAES really are. I could get away with just 2 per heavy fighter.)
Saffera
Unlike the apparently delusional Voinian Commander thought, the Igadzra hadnt fired a single SAE. They'd fired their new spinal mount weapon, previosuly only used at the battle of Zidagar. Unlike Voinians, the Igadzra fleet klnew how to have basic safeties in their weapons, and the new LIDAR Sensor Arrays ensured not a single turret fired to hit another Igadzra ship. When the Voinian fleet began its ramming tactics, the Igadzra did respond with SAEs. Very precise and powerful SAEs. 3 hit every single Voinian Heavy Fighter and Interceptor, destroying them utterly. It seemed the Voinians had been under the mistaken impression their armour would rpotect them. The Spinal Mount Beams changed targets for a second, and wiped out the Strokka fighters befor ethey knew what had hit them. The Voinian charge had been destroyed with a single volley from the Igadzra fleet.
This phase of the battle had gone extremely well for th Igadzra, destroying a huge amount of ships for zero losses.

(OOC:Objection, no mention of ANY withdrawal of industrial ability. You havent had enough time since I launched my fleets in your direction, nor had it been mentioned atall.. For that matter you never mentioned any conversion of the shipyards. Plus how you can formulate a counter attack when that fleet is only just finding out , I dont know.)
Twyus
It seemed the Voinian commander was trying to retreat, and the Igadzra commander could jsut not allow that.
With the fleet activating afterburners while under cloak, it rocketed towards the Voinian ships heading for the hyperspace points.
It arrived with plenty of time to spare. Decloaking, the Igazras fired their beams, twisting the Voinian ships into unrecognisable hulks. The time it took them to enter hyperspace doomed them.
The Igadzra fleet over over the planet, wondering what the Voinians had done with such a meager industrial planet, that was after all, a penal colony whos main function was to mine. The idea of producing any ships here would be rather funny, it having no real resources of its own, and no facilities to do so. It was claimed for one reason, and one reason only.

(-Message:
This message has been sent to you to alert you to the threat of a race calling themselves the Voinians. They seized a Zidagar system, while the Zidagar fleets fleed to defend against the Igadzra First Fleet, or escape. Now that the Zidagar and Igadzra governments are as one, the unified voice of the strands will not allow any outsiders to control strand space. This Voinian government claims it move din to protect the populace of the two systems it conquered. The fact that Twyus is a penal colony blunts their suggestions, as does the fact that Saffera is home to an agrarian community and trading post with the Miranu.
The Voinians attempted first to sieze territory which is not theirs, then to fight against the rightful protectors of the systems. Early reports indicate that the populace of Saffera has been most traumatised at being forced to work in Voinian factories, previously never having to produce any ships, but rather feed the Zidagar populace.

Molar
The Azdgaris doom had arrived. The Hegemony Third Armada had arrived, and with it, the absorbtion of the Azdgari would finally begin. It moved towards the Azdgari base, looking out for enemy ships.

6)Zidagar Technological Intergration
In order to allow the expanded Igadzra to use Zidagar technology msot effectively, and intergrate it into the fleet, Igadzra and Zidagar scientists have begun looking at ways to intergrate the various technologies of both sides. Since a full understanding of the technologies already exists, it is not expected to take long, but refitting the fleet will take longer.
Started:02/5/03. Completion 05/5/03
7)Igadzra Fleet Refit
While all new ships include the new technologies, such as the cloak and spinal mount beams, a large portion of the Igadzra fleet remains without the new technology. As such, a refit is in order.
Started:02/5/03. Completion 07/5/03
8)Station Construction
In order to secure the new borders of the Hegemony, construction is being started on 2 new stations, lowering the amount of border systems that must be defended. Stations will be constructed in Grivok and Stror.
