Test Battle (Battle of Mythos IV)

Post by BigJKU316 »

The Federation Forces enter the battle area in a standard box formation.

Image

Task Force 1- 55 Ships (10 GCS, 5 Nebula, 15 Excelsior, 25 Miranda)
Task Force 2- 55 Ships (5 GCS, 10 Nebula, 15 Excelsior, 25 Miranda)
Task Force 3- 100 Ships (30 Excelsior, 70 Mirandas)
Task Force 4- 15 Ships (15 Nebula)

Admiral Staplic is flying his flag in a Nebula Class Ship in Task Force 4.


Since they have cloaking devices the Klingons deploy second, over a wider area and with knowledge of the deployment of the other force. We await the Klingon Deployment orders.

Task Force 1- 4 Negh'Var; 32 Vor'Cha (Firepower 53,061, Torpedo Firepower 27,360)
Task Force 2- 30 B'Rel, 80 BOP (Firepower 28,810, Torpedoe Firepower 13,600)
Task Force 3- 30 B'Rel, 80 BOP (Firepower 28,810, Torpedoe Firepower 13,600)

Is the Klingon breakdown.

Image

The Federation Fleet moves out towards each flanking force and fires torpedoes. At average ranges of over 500,000 miles little damage is inflicted. Task Forces 1 and 3 destroy 2 Birds of Prey and damage 1 B'Rel and 4 more BOP that withdrawl from the battle. Task force 2 acheives an identical result against the other Klingon Force. Task force 4 has to far to move and cannot fire this round.

Task Force 2 for the Klingons fires at Task Force 3 for the Federation and destroys 1 Miranda while crippling 2 more which leave the battle. Task Force 1 plows ahead at maximum speed. Task Force 3's commander shows little initiative and when his assigned targets goes out of range he simply waits for more orders.


OOC

The following rolls created these results

Federation 1 & 3 vs Klingon 2

Federation Victory if number less than 53; number rolled is 96. Major victory for the Klingon's in escaping damage.

Klingon 3- Did not attack as orders were to fire on Federation TF 3 which moved out of range.
Federation 4- Ordered to move max range could not do that and fire in same round, can only return fire if fired upon.

The main Klingon Task Force closes in on the Federation left. The 3rd Klingon Task force runs towards support. The Federation looks to finish off KTF 1 and continues to chase KTF 3.

Federation 1 vs Klingon 2

The Klingon remnant is wiped out. The map denotes the position of their death but they will not appear next turn.

Klingon 1 & 2 vs Federation 4

The Klingons are not quite at the right angle for a flank attack.

Klingon Victory if number less than 63 number rolled is 12. Major Victory for the Klingon's at very close range.
Damage roll is 47/100 which results in 4 GCS Destroyed (4 Damaged), 2 Nebula's Destroyed (1 Damaged), 6 Excelsiors Destroyed (6 Damaged), 11 Miranda's Destroyed (10 Damaged).

Afer wiping out KTF 1 the Federation force does what it can to fire back at the Klingon 1st and damages a Negh'Var, destroys a Vor'Cha and damages 2 more.

Federation groups 2 and 4 fire from extreme phaser range on KTF 3. The range and speeds limit damage (Feds would have won with a roll of less than 66 and a roll of 83 happened). However they do inflict some damage killing a Brel (damaging 1) a BOP (damaging 3).

The Klingon TF 3 fires back at Federation Force 4 from 200,000 KM and kills one Nebula while wounding another. (roll of 44 results in Federation success, damage roll of 89 leads to some losses).



I think we will wrap up the mock battle here. You probably get the idea by this point. You basically send me verbal orders and I send you a map and results each turn. I think the main lesson to be learned here (other than Staplic got a couple of bad rolls) is to stay focused on the main enemy force. The Feds chased around smaller forces on the Flanks and let the one large Klingon force really mess them up.
