Well considering the distance we need to travel ect the absolute minimum time jump would be 3 years if we want to keep it realistic. 5 years would be more fitting. But if people dont want to push the time line to much we can say we used one of the fanon warp highways that only takes a year.

Now the battle is over we can replair and heal.

Who ever does the next post bring the support fleet up. It has an olympic and several cargo/repair ships in it.

We can take a week or two repairing and traveling back at low warp and then I'll do the debrief and home coming party. While we're doing this I'll write up the mission brief for the next mission so everyone can get their character ready ect.

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Sounds good. Also we might want to scuttle some of the more heavily damaged ships. I think most of the hurt ones got finished there at the end but there's still some that are beat all to hell.

None. They always surrender right before they finish the job and never tell you why.

Current battle status:

Strike group one, Breaking the enemy line and landing our land army.
1 - Galaxy class - USS Dakota - Flagship - Crew: Rochey, Monroe
1 - Akira class - USS Impervious - Air support (Destroyed over landing area, splattered onto surface, all hands lost)
2 - Saber - USS Holland (Destroyed by subspace bomb, all hands lost), USS Ravencrest (Kamakazi run. 4/5ths crew saved)
1 - Defiant - USS Alie (destroyed in dogfight)
27- Falcon Class fighter

Second strike group: Engaging the enemy fleet.

2 - Akira Class - USS Daystrom - Crew: Mikey, Teaos, Thorin, M'real (On fighter), Reliant (Damaged). USS O'Ryan (Damaged)
1 - Nebula - USS Roberts (Heavily damaged?)
2 - Defiant - USS Horse shoe (Destroyed by sub space weapon), USS Southern Cross
2 - Steamrunner class - USS Maginot (Destroyed by a kamazi run), USS Numerical (Damaged)
1 - Intrepid - USS Kursk (Destroyed by Sub space weapon)
54 - Falcon class fighters

Third strike group: Destroy unmanned defences.

1 - Lakota class refit Excelsior - USS Shoshone - Crew: Tsu (Destroyed)
1 - Nebula Class - USS Adams (damaged)
2 - Saber Class - USS Katana (Crippled) - Crew: M,M&I, USS Oak (Destroyed- Unknown)
1 - Intrepid: Freeman USS Abbot
4- New Orleans Class USS Brawly, USS Sherry (Destroyed by a cool death crashing into the turrent, all hands lost), USS Adieu, USS Dirge (Destroyed- Warp Core breach)
So we have:

These ships are all still battle ready although damaged: Dakota, Daystrom, O'Ryan, Abbot, Adams, Brawly, Adieu, Numerical, Southern Cross.

The Roberts is alive but totally screwed and could be scuttled. The Katana is also pretty banged up.

We lost 12 ships and our fighter are probably around 50%.

Thanks, Reliant. I sort of wanted to leave those characters open, and leave my current part on a semi-positive note.

The mind-meld concept wasn't too hokey, or sappy, right? :?

A little harder then she should normally be, but if she was that dedicated to get your character to do what she wanted I could see her being like that. So, it was okay.

Ok. I meant to imply they've worked together before and respect each other and it's more of two friends/acquantances/coworks with "You must do this" "Ohh no I don't" "OOOO yes you do!" etc. etc.

Did that make sense?

That is probably going to be my last post of this mission. If anyone else wants to post a closing post to wind up any lose ends or character arcs go ahead. I'll leave the thread open for a week before locking it and opening Gamma mission.
