The Rebel Faction

"Fire all missiles onto that second light cruiser, tell IFE our plans. Fire all other weapons on the other light cruiser."
"Yes sir."
The missiles flew from the ships, all 567 of them, swarmed towards the second light cruiser, aimed at different places on the hull. Lord Snowkan was sure that at least some of them would get through and hit the hull. The turboalsers and ion cannons on the capital ships fired continually at the first light cruiser. At first they were the weakened power setting, then the normal, then weakened again.
"Sir i have an idea."
"Well, what is it?"
"Since we can make our shots fire more quickly, with less power, why can't we make them fire with extra strenght and less quickly. Sir it would only make sense. think abotu it, we fire our weakened shots, then power them uop higher then normal, the ships would be so confused."
"Wonderful idea, begin the modifications."
The Mon Calamari Republic and Iron Fist Empire ships, fired on the low power while the modifications were being made, then the higher then normal power, then normal and then weakenned. The dolvin basils would hopefully be confused.
"Bring the sentenial landing craft in from Kessel."
"yes sir. Sir we won't be able to bring the troopers down in one load."
"I know that captain, but we can at least help the forces down there."
"Yes sir. They will be here in soon."
"Thank you captain."
The battle was progressing well for the Mon Calamari Republic, the enemy was hopelessly out numbered, and out gunned. The only thing that owrried Lord Snowkan was the troops on the ground.

The Zealous Mist and Tempest Mist came ripping out of hyperspace at the edge of the system to join the rest of the Task Force in avenging the loss of the Raging Night Hammer.

"Ask the Captain of the Tempest Mist if she has modified the missiles since they left Nenten."

"Captain Herringa reports that the missiles are ready."

"Excellent news move us into range of those two light cruisers we will take the closer of the two out first. Make sure that the Tempest Mist holds onto their missiles until I give the order."

The 7 Star destroyers started closing the distance between them and the Light Cruisers.

"Get me in contact with the Emperor, no administrators, directly with the Emperor."

The image of Emperor Fearsons appeared before the Admiral and Siather bowed in respect.

"Your Majesty we are at the planet known as Ylesia. The Yuuzhan Vong were here in great numbers and still remain here in small numbers. Two light cruisers and some troops on the planet. The larger force managed to destroy the Raging Night Hammer before they left."








The rest of the Det'aan and Stormtroopers joined those on the planet and they began moving toward the last known location of the Vong slowly and cautiously.

"Move our ships into range of those light cruisers."
"Yes sir."
The Mon Calamri and Iron Fist fleets moved closer and closer the ligth cruisers.
"Sir we are within fring range."
"Fire all missiles and torpedos at the second light cruiser. All turbolasers and ion cannons and laser cannons, half of you fire lower power, half normal on the first light cruiser. After a minute, fire an higher then normal power."
"Yes sir."
The missiles, turbolaser beams, laser cannon fire and ion cannon fire flew at the two ligth cruisers.
"Are the troops on the ground yet?"
"Yes sir. The sentenials are going down to the planet for the third time."
"Good. Any casualties?"
"No sir, we are still not within in range, except for the tank droids. They are firing at the warriors, and have taken some out."
"Good, good."

The 7 Mists of the Rouge Empire pulled into range on the first Light Cruiser and began firing on it.

"Spread all weapons along the length of that ship then have the Tempest Mist fire off 10 missiles at the midsection. When they explode all weapons should fire at the midsection of the light cruiser."

The Tempest Mist fired off 10 missiles which glided in and as soon as the sensors on them detected the gravity anomalies that the Dovin Basils create they exploded overloading the little black holes long enough for every ship to get in enough turbolaser fire to chunk off nearly half the midsection of the ship. Another manuever like that would cause the thing to split in half.







Meanwhile on the planet the ground forces had stopped nearly 3 klicks away from the Vong "stronghold" and waited for the reinforcements promised by the Emperor to the Admiral.

On the planet thousands of stormtroopers and Det'aan Warriors waited as a few scouted ahead and others watched through macrobinoculars. The Vong had choosen a nice place to camp plenty of defensable terrian, steep inclines, deep caves, jagged rocks. This was the type of terrain that all these men had only seen at Nenten it would be their first time in combat on these types of terrain. Finally the Det'aan scouts returned with good news they had found a chain of over hangs just 1 klick from the Vong position that would provide perfect cover til they could find a way up to attack the Vong hand to hand. One scout even brought back news of a weakness in the Vong armour the armpits seemed to be a weak area.

The thousands of warriors charged foward toward the overhang and dove in as the Vong realized what was going on. Some of the Det'aan kept moving taking up defendable positions on higher ground to set up their sniper rifles. The Gand didn't use blaster rifles in cases like this they used the old fashioned relatively short range bullet rifles. They would get the job done and would be silent at doing it. The rest of the troops began creeping forward silently allowing the snipers to take out the patrolling Vong as they went. The Det'aan were armed with high powered blaster pistols and the traditional Det'aan Bak'taar. The Stormtroopers were armed with high power repeating blaster rifles and vibro-katanas. They would get close and then unload their blasters before taking the Vong hand to hand.

They got within 400 meters to the Vong and then charged in firing off their blasters and cutting a few surprised Vong down. More fell to snipers and soon the Det'aan and stormtroopers were engaged in hand to hand combat with the Vong using their vibro katanas and Bak'taars.
