The ISS Revenger had just come out of hyperspace and scans showed something odd and something straight worrying. Captain Sven Krast immediately put the ship on high alert and started a full scan and what he found was worrying and suddenly the reports from the drones came in and the distress signals and all Sven could do at this moment was open up a general channel. As the holographic display showed the ships in orbit of the planet and it was clear that something was not right. He also ordered one ship to start sending out the distress signal that was just in case unknown forces attacking a planet.

“This is the captain Sven Krast of the ISS revenger of the Expeditionary Defense Force seize all the actions you have breached Inwitt territory halt your actions and leave immediately within 1 hour or prepare for initiation you have violated Inwitt sovereignty leave now”

Sven looked at the data coming in and it was clear that the main settlement was under attack and thus he decided to send in the reinforcements. In the main hangar, a ship was launched carrying 17 heavily armed Neo-Crusaders. Sven was not sure what would happen but he would be dammed if those strange ships would take the planet.

The second the ships dropped out of Hyperspace i gave the order for 4 Basestars to engage the ships with Raiders being deployed. I had decided they were of little threat to our forces, that being said stopping them from calling in other reinforcements would be a benefit for the resource ships that were now on their second run.

As i watched the view screen a message was played on all channels “This is the captain Sven Krast of the ISS revenger of the Expeditionary Defense Force seize all the actions you have breached Inwitt territory halt your actions and leave immediately within 1 hour or prepare for initiation you have violated Inwitt sovereignty leave now” I thought for a moment and then opened a channel of my own "Inwitt ships stand down and surrender and we will let you live"

Reports of the Inwitt had indicated that they were a warrior race and offering them the chance to surrender would be tantamount to calling them a coward. It would likely gould them into battle rather than make them run away. As i watched the hundreds of fighters from the 4 basestars started to be deployed towards the hostiles.

With the fighters approaching and the message received from the unknown fleet, Sven was sure to do one thing. He ordered that the signal was now sent on a tight beam immediately a beam that could not be jammed due to it being on a military frequency simply unknown. He started to then order all ships to fire at will and as their flack fire opened up destroying the fighters coming in large numbers. The ships started to move in a manner that would give them a defensive edge. Torpedoes were fired from the Inwitt ships and nuclear-tipped missiles were fired as well heading straight towards those unknown ships.

The Vulcan Republic: A Republic Awakening

After some 112 years of 'splendid isolation' as some say, it was once the Nation that had galaxy wide influence but now's seen as no more than an old optimistic man that has been left in the past, it's influence nothing compared to the past. It has awoken to a galaxy at in turmoil and unrest with what seems every nation at each others throat but can they bring the galaxy back to order, with respect?, with dignity?, well it will be one massive task.

Star Date: 5482, The Collapse-

This year saw the 'Act of Isolation' passed in the Galactic Senate,on Vulcan, which only accelerated the decline of Vulcan influence and stability across the galaxy, this act was seen as the final blow to the Old Vulcan establishment. It also saw many star system declare Independence to avoid the effect of the legislation which are now known as the Romulan Confederation and enjoy healthy relations to this day. First the markets lost confidence in the Vulcan economy leaving the economy struggling which lead to higher prices in food and fuel leading to starvation on some planets on the Outer Rim of Vulcan territory, this left the Vulcan Republic being dethroned by the Parakkan Star Empire in GDP and investment. These factors lead to mass riots across the Republic and brought it to its knees, as the election was due that year a new movement formed know as the 'Navar Movement' which quickly gained tracking with their progressive policies which held great emphasis on self reliance and scientific advancement, They argued the reason the Republic had these challenges was due to how Vulcan overextended itself and invested too much into other nations they saw this as a major flaw and the main cause of the collapse and subsequent tyranny. The Movement spread like wildfire from it's origin on Electron and soon it saw traction leading to a political party and organisation forming. The 1 year election cycle has begun and they saw massive success leading to massive victory and the first to win an election as an incumbent party from formation.

Star Date: 5486, The Reform-

Their first acts was political and social reform, they soon passed a new constitution giving worlds more freedom on policies, encouraging self new and innovative ideas, and created the 'Council' which would act as the government and cabinet where the Prime Consol would act as the head of state. Other reforms followed such as economic policies that were very protectionist and caused companies to either stay or leave, thankfully by this point many stayed as the major damage had been done,the reforms continued and they saw great success such as, promoting rational thought and incentives to come up with new methods and ideas through the teaching that 'everything is there to improve' from a very young age. The Scientific sector saw prioritisation over most of society besides from infrastructure, it saw the biggest investment in Vulcan history seeing the sector becoming the largest scientific sector with thee most funding, Infrastructure projects with rampant through the early days such as creating new hyper lanes between core systems and started the construction of the 'Vulcan Defence Intransitive' which would take 20 years to complete but left the Vulcan Republic with cutting edge defences in each major world and around the border systems, this was where regenerative armour was first used in the Vulcan Republic after it being discovered during the construction of phase 1 the massive project, the way Vulcan could afford this was through the gradual decommissioning of the humongous star fleet the Republic posses, once being the biggest in the galaxy, the ships where either melted down or sold to other star nations little did people think this would be the last communication with the outside for some 87 years besides from the newly formed Confederated Romulan Systems that would be the only way into the Republic during the isolation. Soon the reforms where complete after 22 years and another election, as Vulcan runs on a 12 years cycle, leaving the Vulcan Republic a Technocratic Republic and one with next no military instead the funding going towards the Defences or Scientific research. The economy finally saw success as the reforms and restructuring kicked in with the expanding of colonised worlds and business incentives however little did anyone know how delicate the 'Scientific-Economic complex' could be when it would start to open back up yo the galaxy some 109 years later...

Star Date: 5595, The Awakening-

After a total of 109 years of total isolation and 112 of diplomatic isolation, an election that occurred some 15 years prior saw the now fractured 'Navar Movement' into 'Vulcan First' and 'Peoples Republic' going head to head in an election. Both parties still keep the same and basic ideas and ideology of the original movement however two main policies split them completely, with them being the issue of whether start opening back up and rebuild the once named 'Imperial Fleet', the 'Peoples Republic' says its time for the galaxy to see what we have become and share our advancement in the hopes of helping the unfortunate and destitute as intelligence seems to tell that the Galaxy has seemed to stagnated and not many advancements have been made with the exception of one like minded nation, they also advocated for a rebuilding of the Fleet but for more research and protective/peace keeping purposes as to the 'Vulcan first' idea of a 'Pax-Vulcanna' even though them days are over. The day cam and the 'Peoples Republic' party won a massive majority cutting the 'Vulcan First' party down quite a bit and the new winning party quickly laid the way for the first Fleet to be constructed with new designs focused on capital-carrier ships known as the 'Vulcanna class' or carrier that can hole up to 950 ships at on time and possesses the new Warp 9x Warp drive leaving it slightly faster in hyper space compared to its rivals. The Vulcan Fleet includes to 5320 star ships with 4 'Vulcanna class' carriers and some 650 experimental vessels. The construction of the fleet took 14 years at massive resource cost predominantly in Electronium which enables the intelligent nation of the reactive amour on ships and the Border defences leaving the fleet bottle necked not being able to afford a war and make new ships without seeing severe supply shortages, the Vulcan Government has started surveying many worlds however not many seems to be safe enough to mine from as many as hostile acid planets. Over the age of 'Isolation' the Vulcan science academy has become the finest in the galaxy and is attributed with many of thee recent discoveries such as, the improved warp drive and antimatter reactor however, the later is very unstable and is seen as possibly to risky. The Vulcan Republic slowly opened up with only recently allowing foreign travellers to visit and resided in the Republic from the Parakkan Star Empire however this is soon meant to expand but has been slow due to technicalities in the negotiations between these star nations. On area that has seen significant growth is the economy with new investment from outside has seen many new and foreign companies set up in the Republic but they are kept under very tight regulation, preventing dependency in them if any crisis was meant arise however, this also means Vulcan will not and cannot rise to its once Economic power it enjoyed during the golden years if it does not relax the restrictions but it would be unlikely many experts have suggested.

Recent diplomatic efforts have seen the Republic reach out to once closer allies and friends like the Romulan Confederated Systems and the Parakkan Star Empire but more importantly rejoin the Galactic assembly where Vulcan has already attended 2 sessions and contributed more than people had expected, but many were quick to notice the mind and attitude of the Vulcan delegates and the whole Republic still lie in the Golden years and how respect was a given but that a new reality quickly was seen in the first session. The Republic has reach out to the Romans in the hopes of reunification and recently bales them out with 4 Trillion Daltari after a financial crisis swepped the nation, talks are set to be held soon on a possible 'Federation of Navar' being formed in the next few years leaving many wanting and eager for the talks to start. After this new awakening Vulcan is left in a crossroads of a road that will lead to a Vulcan that may keep to itself and protectionist or a Vulcan that will follow is old legacy with major improvements and a more friendly, optimistic outlook at the galaxy. But which one will it be?

Three Cylon Baseships Destroyed

This evening we have had it confirmed that our Fleet of 200 brave Klingon warriors managed to successfully destroy three Cylon Baseships. It is understood that the engagement took place inside the Vulcan Republic territory, in what is being described as an insignificant system by the High Command. The Fleet General said "We encountered these Cylons in the system, which immediately deployed their fighters which were no match for our ships, whilst they were being engaged by the majority of the fleet. Over 50 Birds of Prey were ordered to cloak and attack the Cylon baseships in order to stop them from warping away." When we asked about the casualties we were told that 123 ships had either been destroyed or suffered major damage and had to be tractor home.

It is unclear what the ramifications of this skirmish well be in respect to relations between The Vulcan Republic and Klingon, Cardassian & Romulan Alliance. Though if anything it could see those relations turn frosty.

5th Romulan fleet Deployed to the Border

After a series of designments in the Senate and High Council regarding which threat is greater, The Cylons or The Vulcan Republic, the Romulans have dispatched their 5th Fleet to the border. This came about as a result of the recent terrorist attack on Bajor where a Vulcan was found to be a member of the attack.

It is thought by many within the Romulan political hierarchy, that the Vulcans well want to seek to unify the Vulcan and Romulan peoples as they were in the past. It is thought by those within the Romulan political hierarchy that the Vulcans will do this by force if political means fail. In addition there is concerns within both Cardassian and Klingon political hierarchy's that should such an offer be made by the Vulcans it could mean the alliance could be weakened. Which is not a prospect that either the Cardassians and Klingons want especially in these current difficult times.

Divisions in the Talons

The mysterious organisation known as the Talons today have announced that it is to split into two different organisations. One organisation will be known as the Rangers the other will remain as the Talons. The main difference between the two is that the Rangers will have their focus on matters relating to the Force whilst the Talons will have their focus on the Star Empire.

For many years there have also been rumours that there were some within the Talons who were unhappy about the methods they used to achieve the aims of the organisation in the name of the Star Empire. It is understood that those Talons who wish to transfer over to the Rangers will be able to do so.

We spoke to the Rangers Grand Master Alfred "This division well enable are two orders to best serve the Star Empire and its members. The Talons will continue to do the job role that they do at present whilst The Rangers will focus on the study of The Force along with providing support to local law enforcement when required." We asked Alfred how many Talons would be going over "At this moment in time, it is unknown if how many will join the Rangers."

Trade flow between the Star Empire and Talox slows

in recent weeks the number of trade ships from the Talox system to Abars has decreased by 34% this is despite a large fleet for Parakkan Robotics been stationed there after the recent war between the two nations. Reports from various shipping companies blame the new import tariffs been imposed by the Abars Governor for the decline. One company said in a statement "Tariffs have gone from 15% to 42% since the last governor elections. As a result its eating into the profits we make to bring the times into the Star Empire to the point where we may soon look into other avenues."

When we spoke to the Governors office they said "Since the attack on our world by the Cylons we have had to raise money to help repair the damage done. Naturally increasing the import fees was one way of doing that and we are only hoping that the higher level well last a year." When we asked about that repair fund that was given from the Central Government to help with the repair. We were told "Simply put the funds where not sufficient to cover the total bill"

We have since tried to enquire how we have since tried to find out how much the repair fund was and what it was spent from but that information has been denied by the Governors officers.

I stood and watched the readout and could see that the first wave of fighters had been destroyed and the hostile ships were forming up a defensive line. There point defences were formidable but already as the second fighter wave was sent in the Raiders were already beginning to adapt and more fighters were beginning to get throw. The ship rocked as it was hit by a torpedo. Readouts showed minimal damage and nothing that would effect the ships combat effectiveness. "All Basestars to open fire." I said. with that our turrents and torpedo tubes all opened fire. Watching it reminded me of the one occasion i observed a Parakkan watching the monitor of a celebration event that took place on Aren, thinking on it I remembered they were called fireworks and the exchange of fire from our ships and there was like a massive firework show.

I looked down on the display and noticed that a transmission had been sent successfully from the Inwitt ships. Though i wasnt concerned we had been fortunate to have lasted this long without them sending a message to their nearest station. I then received there message and wondered, if they were trying to insult me or not?

Sven watched as the ships had begun to open fire and seemingly a second wave was coming towards them. He turned around and looked at his comms officer who nodded, the signal was through and thus he knew that it was only a matter of at worst a week at best hours before reinforcements would come. He looked outside again, the camera screen showing a 3D view of the surrounding area, as no transparent steel was present as the bridge was not exposed as the designers were not idiots. The defensive systems began dealing with the incoming torpedoes and the second wave fighters but the sheer amount of stuff coming at them mean that their shields were starting to take hits. He knew that if they stayed they would be death something he was not looking forward to and would not give these creatures the pleasure off.

“All ships micro jumps we are going to draw this out”

He looked at his weapons officer and grinned,

“Give them a present and jump away”

The weapons officer nodded and Sven looked at the positions of the other ships which jumped away, a micro-jump was a simple tactic they used to jump to the edge of the system and from there they would use their ships their speed to their advantage. Now all the fire was drawn upon this ship but all of this was taking place within a few seconds. The automated system released a simple giant nuclear warhead (tsar bomba size) then the ship jumped away, waiting for it to go off ripping apart the incoming enemy as Sven his ship came out of hyperspace at the edge of the system and then started to move around the outer planets as quickly as possible hiding in the asteroid belt using its magnetic field to dim its sensors. It now was a waiting game and from now on would be a hit and run war until reinforcements came, while keeping them in place.

I watched the ships jump to Hyperspace, i doubted it was far, the Matrix had computed that the Inwitt wouldn't simply cut and run. I ordered the fleet to resume its attack on the planet and upon looking at the scans i could see the resource fleet had already left the planetary system. Our mission was simple to draw the Inwitt forces to this system, devastate this system and then leave with minimal losses as possible. It was then that i noticed the bomb left by the Inwitt just as it went off.

The bomb destroyed the fighters close to it and seriously damaged the second wave fighters. As for the Basestars, my been closest but still some distance took the brunt of the blast. Sensors showed that a number of systems had been damaged, with nearly a 3rd of our armament where no longer functional until repairs had taken place, meanwhile there were high amounts of radiation being reported throw-out the ship, which in itself wasn't harmful to us but we had to ensure that vital systems where shielded against it.

As such i ordered with withdrawal of ground forces and ordered full ship to surface bombardment, with most of the planetary anti ship guns no longer functional it would enable us to launch a quick and swift attack on the planet. Though i doubted that unless we concentrated fire on the cities shielding we would penetrate it to destroy the cities. Though the attack on the less defended settlements and on the surface as well would render the planet less hospitable for habitation.

I also assigned the withdrawal of our forces to take place in 5 hours and all ships were to remain vigilant for those Inwitt vessels that had jumped away. I estimated that our ship would be ready for Hyperspace within 10 hours and as such tasked a two Basestars to stay with us until we could jump. For the glory of the Cylon Empire.

Kronos system
3 hours after engagment near Kronos

Helvegarius Androlaris looked through the holo screens at what was the warp, the strange alternate dimension that they used to traverse the void. He stood there his hands behind his back, proudly in his white golden armor marking him as a Rear Admiral. Helvegarius Androlaris was a Taung that had seen much, he was old yet still stood at a height of 260 cm he was tall always had been, he had fought in the swarm wars and it seemed to him at least that they were soon to enter conflict with what might be a Swarm successor. His golden eyes turned towards a holographic display, it showed the current status of the 7th Frontier group and its 6 heavy cruisers, 2 dreadnoughts,7 Battle-Cruisers, 2 carriers, 23 Frigates. He stood to abord the EEFS Coraxius a Dreadnought and a powerful one and he had ordered the entire group to be ready to engage the enemy the moment they dropped out of the warp. They had been closer than central command through and had made full speed towards Kronos the goal of securing the system and eradicating the possible Swarm infestation.

It was within 10 minutes of him getting the sign that all the ships were ready for battle after all the fighters were ready to launch, drop ships ready to deploy, drop pods ready to drop, frigates ready to spread out, and the carriers and their groups ready to deploy their fighters and onboard corvettes. That the 7th frontier group exited the warm and at that moment the scans tapped into the data network and gathered immediately all the data that all Inwitt assets had gathered upon the enemy. They had dropped near the planet of Kronos yet on the other side of the planet than the strange invaders. This was done with a simple intention and as planned two wolfpacks, 4 frigates reached began to move away from the fleet and enter into the warp for a small micro-jump to start attacking the ships in the outer systems. While the carriers remained behind with their escorts and had deployed their onboard frigates. Thus the forces that remained were the Cruisers, Dreadnoughts, and Battle-Cruisers that now would begin approaching the unknown forces on the other side of the planet. Thus while those forces numbering in total some 15 heavily armed warships supported by 8 frigates and heavy bomber escorts, these ships all designed after the swarm wars were heavily shielded had extensive and advanced point defense system consisting of electrochemically fired heavy repeater bolter point defense systems a grid of missile defense systems amongst others. While in total the force that was now approaching the unknown Xenos threat in typical Inwitt fashion carried enough firepower to flatten entire continents in mere minutes.

While the smaller group of 23 warships began to move towards the unknown threat from the Bastion class battle carrier dozens of dropships began to be deployed towards Kronos itself. These dropships were medium-sized and in total carried 3400 crusader marines heavily armed and supported by their heavy wear suits and combat walkers and tanks this force was not meant to recapture the planet but rather to conduct a pointed assault towards the largest force of enemies detected.

Whatever the result was of what was to come one thing remained very clear that the Enclaves would not let Xenos roam free inside their borders or book any threat from them. Whoever had attacked was about to face the wrath of a battle group, a formation that had been responsible for the extermination of entire systems during the swarm wars.

Most of the Cylon forces had withdrawn to safe zone Z-23 waiting for the withdraw signal or the main arrival of Inwitt forces. My ship and two other Basestars continued to rain down weapons fire and nuclear warheads on the planet. All in all the attack was going well though the small force that we had fought a few hours ago hadnt returned and had remained on the outer edge of the system. No doubt waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

I decided that it time to signal the main fleet withdrawal "To all vessels baring Basestar 24 and 14 are to leave the system." the coms board lit up with the acknowledgement signal and then they began to leave the system. it was then that the Raiders on the other side of the planet reported that a large force had entered the system.

"All ships begin to move the edge of the system and prepare to make the jump to hyperspace once we are able. Assume defensive pattern Alpha 2, all Fighters to provide additional defence support to the Basestars. Cylon ground forces are to engage, Jungle protocol 23 until further notice." Again the coms board lit up with the acknowledgement of the orders. I knew the next hour would be quite telling, if we could hold out that long we could leave the system. If not then at least we had done our duty for the Cylon Empire.
