The Rebel Faction

Two small fleets of warships exited hyperspace on the outside of the commenor system. One set up on one route into and out of the system. The others set up on another route.

They were well out of range of the scanners and ships the planet had, but were within their parameters. The two Interdictor cruisers activated their gravity wells. That would keep ships from entering or leaving the system.

HDE wouldn't know that they were there until it was to late. The fleets were small, but would do their jobs. They set in to wait with all ships on Red alert.

Twelve Rapyir Starfighters broke off from their respective battlegroups. Six from each task force. They headed in from two directions to do a quick scan of Commenor.

The ships darted in towards the planet. Their agility making them the macth of Chiss clawcraft.

OOC: Sorry.

Commander Tryvl looked at his scanners. He had bogeys on his six. That wasn't good. He called to his six fighters.

"Three and four, continue on for the scan. The rest of you, lets draw some of those fighters off. We don't want any fighting."

He then sent a similar message to the flight group that was coming towards the opposite side of the planet. They participated in the same procedure. Commander Tryvl hailed the LFX fighters.

"LFX fighters this is Commander Tryvl of the Tholatin Republic. We are not assaulting you. Break off, you have no justification for attacking us."

Tryvly looked at the maps. They showed that the fighters were in LFX space. He replied back.

"Yes we know we are in your space, but we are simple recon fighters. What threat do we pose to your fleet?"

The fur recon fighters made it to their points and began their scans. They made them quick because of the threat from the LFX fighters. Tryvl called to his group.

"Fighters break. Split into pairs nd try and blast your way through the fighters. We can outmaneuver them with our fighters."

Tryvly began flying straight at the LFX fighters. His wingman followed suit. They began evasive maneuvers immediately.

Four dozen TIE Defenders of the Home Defence Corps fired dual payloads of concussion missiles at the oncoming starfighters, the pale red tails of those deadly warheads convering on the enemy craft...
