Well, it's not going to win me any literary awards and it took me three months to bang it out, but it's finally up. And even tho this is much more recent, I still got it up before Rochey's Insurrection review! In my opinion it's one of the weakest things I've written but it's also the set-up, filler piece which tells what has to happen for the story to move on.

Questions, Comments, Concerns, Critiques?

All I have to say is... ouch.

Nice writing, and thank you. Now we can get this back up and running.

Should we PM the actives so they know we are back to work and they can plan the ground battle?

Or just post up ideas on here. Remember, they can take two or three hits before they go down, because of the armor, and the ship can take maybe one or two after Darwin raised the deflector 'shields'.

Haha, well, I'm waiting for Mark to post his escape, and then I'll post my Court Martial on ship, once the battle is done and over...

Just make sure to do research... ask Seafort for the procedural info.

Or watch "Court Martial" or the "Menagerie".....or even "JAG".

Sorry........this past weekend was an unexpected nightmare. I should have some time in the next three days or so.

Oh, I know JAG, haha, I know court procedure fairly well, I think this may be a slightly more unconventional court martial, as it's meant to be a quicker one than a full long and out, it comes out to something like

"We know you did it, if you confess we'll give you a slap on the wrist and let it go"

"Ok, I did it, I'm sorry I saved the ship, glad to help anyday." :wink:

So... am I gonna get thrown in the brig for this.

Wait, what are military procedures for such things? Like saving everyone's lives?
