Do we have any handle on where the VE blockade is weakest or where the largest Chaos attack force is? We'll need to blunt whatever attack that is, and then get the VE and UEFA to work together to stop BlOps and Kane.

All while explaining to the VE we already know about the Meta and how canons work.

>>21940240

Well, without actually explaining to THEM what it is.

My head hurts thinking about it already.

>>21940202
>>21940240
>>21940260
Okay, let's move in to stop the Chaos fleet movements. Identify wherever the VE blockade has been weakened most, then jump to that spot. Send a message that we are here to assist and please don't shoot up our ships.

>>21940240
Your Observers are able to trace enough signals to locate a place weak enough that you can probably break through. It might be possible to even sneak by there, though you'd have to be lucky for that to happen.

>>21940466

And I take it NC forces are steaming for the breach?

>>21940466
That one among others. That is just the weakest.

>>21940466
Let's not take that chance. We need the VE to work with us so we can prevent Kane/Black Ops/Chaos/whoever else wants to get their evil clutches on the STOB component. Jump to that location, outside of the VE ships. Follow plan here: >>21940425

>>21940510

Where's the biggest NC concentration heading for?

>>21940535
I think Kane/Black Ops/Chaos/Whoever already has their clutches on the STOB component. We need to get down to the surface and stop them from resetting all of the meta, which is most likely what that wave was. Send transmissions to the UEFA, VE and Jovians to see if we can get them to work together while we stop this shit.

>>21940686
On that note, let's make sure we have the Jovian reinforcements on-board our fleet BEFORE we make that jump.

>>21940716

We might not need to worry about that too much. They'll probably go with: 'They're not shooting at us so we'll decide what to do later'. Any delay at this point means more NC gets through the blockade.

Group forces should prepare for a hot insertion. Do we have drop pods for our KI?

The battle plan is play "Ride of the Valkyries" over all comm frequencies and fly out of the sun all guns blazing.

>>21941087

You're a fucking retard. We don't have the fleet assets to kill everything, so we need to strike hard and fast at the largest enemy fleet, shatter it, and allow the VE to reestablish the blockade, and then kill Kane.

We to figure out WHERE TO GO TO DO THAT FIRST.

>>21941068

Those are some really good rolls. Let's not waste them. Let's think of a battleplan now, then.

Could go with the last tactic for space combat. Worked well enough on the small NuChaos fleet. Although we'll have to be particularly discerning in picking an infiltration ship that can penetrate through the blockade and make it to the surface and hide.

>>21941163

We're plugging the gaps.

We're not trying to hit the surface until after we at least try and contact the VE and UEFA.

Which we should do ASAP on emergence, hailing that we're Task Force 38 and exactly who we're here to kill or capture.

As well as requests to speak to their respective COs when they have the time.

Your ships drop out between the moon and the Earth, arriving almost in the middle of an advancing wave of New Chaos ships. A rag-tag fleet of various ships from other worlds pressed into service and decorated with Chaos markings advances alongside a formidable line of immense warships with a mixture of gothic design and alien horror. Against these foes are a mere three ships, a gargantuan vessel that looks like a clamshell-curved disc with several engine modules in the back, and two attendent battleships of the same type you saw back at Jupiter.

The New Chaos ships have a 10 km long flagship leading them, 4 8 km long battleships, and 8 5km long 'frigates'. There are about 30 capital vessels surrounding them ranging from what looks like a Battlestar to Nebulon-B frigates.

(cont.)

>>21941118
Well, I'd assume it'd be at that place metaop discribed as being weak enough for us to break through. I could be wrong though, and there could be some super special place where New Chaos is singing folk songs and masturbating just for you.

Well, haha, time to Cyno in our Erebus, Doomsday their flagship (Our gallente task force should have 1-5 cynos, if not, have one of our heavy interdictors light it.

Make sure the Armorfleet takes out the less teched vessels, they'll have better odds there.

By the by...

I know we have that one capital ship that the Data Integration Thought Entity granted us in exchange for all the info we gave it. I think it launches drone swarms, fires disintegration beams, and has a Reality Emitter MK. 3 installed.

How will we deploy this to its fullest extent? Also, what should we call it?

I think we should call it the DITE carrier.

>>21941224

Forgot to ask, about our Avatar from EVE, is it's doomsday weapon the old version or the new one?

If its the new one we have a target to test out Judgement, on.

>Doomsday on 10km flagship

>>21941251

I assume we should try to clear out a path for an escape route, as well as to establish clear defensive lines? While we're probably not in the midst of the entire fleet, it'd be a good idea to have the enemy only on one side of our fleet.

>>21941310

It's an Erebus, for one, and two, it's a new DD, because we went to EVE's canon, of which there's only one I know of.

>>21941331

My bad. I thought it was an Amarr Titan. Pity, the fleet doomsday would be perfect.

>>21941284
It's called the DITE Drone Ship. I don't think we really need to name it.

>>21941318

But i mean yes, we can concentrate fire on one side to open up a route but I'm assuming we're almost surrounded so most of our guns should have firing solutions on something. Would be a waste for them not to open up as well.

>>21941224
As the New Chaos ships advance, they seem to keep their acceleration under control in order to keep their escort of conscripted or corrupted vessels around them. The reason why soon becomes apparent.

Energy crackles around the clamshell vessel and two thin beams of white light lance forward from it. One beam drives through the screen of other vessels and hits the flagship. Instantly the New Chaos vessel seems to grow hazy, wobble almost, then explode violently. Another beam lances towards one of the battleships, but a Star Destroyer surges forward to catch the beam on its hull to no effect. The retaliation salvo from the ships is devastating, all firepower focuses on the 20km radius disc of the clamshell vessel. For a while, everything directed at it just seems to vanish as it gets close, then as the barrage continues, shots begin to get through whatever defense was employed. Several explosions erupt from the massive ship's hull, and though still in the fight, it's clear the behemoth has suffered a considerable wound.

The two fleets begin exchanging fire in earnest, launching fighters, torpedoes, missiles, rockets and more as you begin to get firing solutions.

Your Armorfleet doesn't waste any time, closing around one of the frigates and massing their firepower to overwhelm its defenses. The Protoss do the same, claiming another as the Storm's singularity beams cut apart one of the New Chaos battleships, supported by massive fire from the All Under Heaven.

>>21941224
We need to prepare for heavy fighter resistance. Inform everyone that when targetting the Nebulon-B Frigates to aim for the midsection connecting spar.

>>21941393

Well that takes care of the flagship.

Erebus doomsday on another 8km battleship.

>>21941421

>>21941393
Since the flagship is already destroyed, the Erebus fires its devastating Aurora Ominae beam at one of the 8km battleships. The capital ship immediately vanishes in a cloud of fire.

The Drone ship begins firing thin cutting beams that slice apart some of the lesser ships as it launches flights of drones to help intercept the fighter squadrons coming at you.

Return fire is scattered thanks to the concentrated effort on the Void Engineer mothership, only fifteen Abaddons, and ten Guardians from your Armorfleet are torn apart, though all of your ships suffer damage ranging from light to moderate.

Everyone else, Battleships first, then the frigates.

>>21941466

Designate several squadrons of the automated TIE/Ds to target the ships of the Star Wars canon.

Weak points: Star Destroyer Shield generators and bridges, Spar connectors of the Neb-B frigates. These are among the most vulnerable of the fleet, we won't require too much to knock them out.

>>21941466

>>21941463 here

The Battlestar is very heavily armoured.

Reroute BLU Team to teleport to the Bridge/CIC. Wreck everything you can find. With that command centre gone, the ship will be unable to function effectively and I'll be surprised if their marines can counter them.

>>21941466
Deploy X-Wing squadron, TIE-Defender squadrons (original, TIE-D/Cossacks, and Scrap squadron), and the Hiigaran fighters to intercept fighters and any other smaller craft.

Ask the farseers if any ships in this battlegroup have crews who could be saved either through de-corruption or simply not being under the NC ships' yolk.

>>21941466
Are these Star Wars ships vulnerable to teleportation like the first ones? If so, we might be able to commit Grand Theft Star Destroyer before they get blown up.

>>21941527

You're a fucking moron.

There is TOO GREAT A CHANCE of shit getting fucked.

There's the actual Chaos ships, and then the ships that are just conscripted into service by chaos. If I understand correctly we determined that only their main ships had any kind of taint on them. The other ships in the fleet were fine.

Battlestars are ridiculously armoured from the outside. I just want them to trash the CIC and blow it up from the inside.

Have the entire Hacker Team get ready with a dozen R2 and slicer droids, an a dozen of our Borg Network Tap.
BLU Team and a dozen YVH droids with HK-50 beam aboard, to secure a beachhead, and them the slicers and network taps.
Take control of the bridge, beam holy water into the water system and have it rain Holy Water to short out any Chaos, and then seal the Bridge from teleports by setting up Transport Jammers and sealing the doors shut.

Also, have Vitun (with psi armor) and Mustadio (with pattern enhancers) use interplanetary teleport to get to the TSAB Recon Team, then rescue them back to our task force, back to the Storm.

I'm try to get as many resources as we can, because we'll probably need them.

Now why don't we find out if the ships themselves are tainted by chaos and go from there. The more information we have the better.

>>21941749

We agreed on it before we even attacked the Jupiter fleets.

Maybe if you'd paid attention to previous threads you'd know that.

Alright, let's send in the Rodger Young. First, though, contact the VE, tell them we have allies on the ground who need evac and we're sending in a rescue vessel.

Excellent point, thank your for addressing that issue. Get the UEFA on the line, tell them we are here to protect Earth, give them the same intergalatic police story we gave the Jovians.

Have the Hiigaran Fleet get into defensive positions to screen the other ships of our task force, and use the Flak Frigates and Defense Frigates to protect the ships from snub fighters and enemy capital ship fire, respectively.

Have the Soulchipped Hiigaran Scouts use their EMP ability to disable the assorted capital ships while the Guardian, Relentless, AUH, and Oncoming Storm concentrate fire on the NC Battleships.

Have the R-9A's fire concentrated Wave Cannon blasts at the Frigates, while the other R-Types and the TIE-Scrap Squadron defend them from reprisal.

>>21941884
>>21941908
Okay, have them point out exactly which ships are not tainted, and have the TIE-D/Cs and Hiigaran fighters do what they can to disable them. If they can be beamed onto, put some of the replicating holy water into their air and water systems.

Bro, which part of twice the GM telling you bad shit will happen do you not get?

>>21941884
If they don't have teleportation protection, which they likely don't since they never bothered to acquire the Transport Inhibitor technology (I checked, they didn't) we can teleport Nethack Holy Water in the water systems of the NC ally ships to begin shorting out their Warp circuitry if they have any, and we can beam an explosive package right into their reactor coolant systems. Destroying them is not as important as taking them out of the fight. Save that effort for the true NC ships.

>>21941935

Not to mention that we may not have the time to repurpose the star destroyers to a useful form. We won't have a lot of downtime at all in this mission, and we surely will not have enough time to convert the ISDs or other ships to an automated format.

Although beaming holy water into air system ventilations could prove useful in disabling demonic crew members on those ships. Less crew = less combat viability for NuChaos.

>>21941935
>>21941974
>>21941990

How about we take out their CIC's and spend some time when we have it to determine if any are salvageable. If we can't take the ships, they're still sources of valuable resources, or we can use them as shields from NC fire. Why destroy what you can re-purpose?

>>21941990

It is a good plan but I suggest we use it on what will be affected the most.

The NC original vessels.

>>21942008

Because it's CHAOS.

You don't take chances with meta-capable genre-savvy CHAOS of all things. They probably have already planned for that exact situation and have some sort of horrid plague to unleash on us if we try.

>>21942026
We have a lot of that holy water, and it replicates with other water to make it holy because it's from Nethack. We already released it onto Earth to give the planet some protection from NC ground forces.

>>21942031
Except they were fairly stupid in their executions of their plans. Not picking fights with powers that could defeat them was an intelligent decision, but everything after that showed them to be incompetent, as they left behind local forces which, once recovered from the initial shock of New Chaos' attack, would regroup, research, rearm, and then retaliate.

>>21942026
Possible, however, it's debatable if they even have a centralized water filtration system that we could attack.
Also, unlike the Star Wars ships, we don't have their technical schematics (like the Essential Guide to Starships of the Galaxy) so targeting their water systems will be more difficult.

Doing it against the Star Wars ships is simply faster and more likely to succeed because we're already pounding the NC battlebarges into sub-atomic dust and the Holy Water wouldn't get a chance to make a difference.

Ignore the people wanting to capture NuChaos vessels, just blow them the fuck up. I don't want to see our own troops sprouting Slaaneshi mutations on me during this Op because someone did not understand that it wouldn't be a risk but an eventuality, no matter if that ISD totally doesn't look corrupted.

Several Daemons and highly advanced information warfare viruses are launched by the frigates in an attempt to subvert your systems, but between the defenses already in place and quick work by the Hacker team and Data, in conjunction with Mustadio and the Gurus, the fleet is safe from such tricks.

Less safe however, is the close range Armorfleet, who report the loss of several Abaddons to boarding actions by possessed marines. The ships begin firing on other Armorfleet vessels, destroying a pair of battleships.

The Doomsday Device fires again, reducing another frigate to atoms as massed fleet fire does the same for the second. Your coordination serves you well as your fighters and ships begin to take down the remaining enemy fighters and bombers. The Armor Fleet easily takes care of the subverted Abaddons, blasting them to bits as the enemy fails to make proper use of them.

"Second wave incoming!" one of the comm/scan officers shouts. "Six capitals around what looks like some sort of carrier!"

Erupting from a warpjump, six more New Chaos battleships dive into the fray, immediately firing on the damaged Void Engineer Mothership. The carrier begins to disgorge hundreds of large 100m tall pods which launch themselves at your fleet. Your officers immediately fire on them assuming point defense. A few turbolaser blasts hit one, causing the armor shell to fall off and reveal...

"EVA units!" a sensor-operator shouts. "EVA units incoming!"

"Negative on they, they're... Titans? No... They're some fusion of EVA and Titan technology!" another says. "Estimated count three hundred, closing extremely fast!"

New Chaos Forces:
6 Battleships
1 SuperCarrier.
300 EVA-Titans.

>>21942453
Oh sweet mother of fuck.

>>21942453

Time for MechaGodzilla.

Signal the VE ships to move into our fleet so we can get reps on them.

Erebus needs to DD that supercarrier ASAP.

Do those EVAs have space mobility?

R-9cs are to fire on the EVAs.

Armorfleet won't be able to track the EVAs, have them hit the battleships with the Drone ship, Nyx and Erebus.

Get Cheryl to prepare the psy-matrix for defensive use.

Smash those EVAs with whatever we can that isn't already mentioned, if it can't, hit the battleships.

"Not in our area, but now picking up multiple new contacts around the planet!" another bridge operator speaks up. "Sir, the New Chaos main fleet is engaging the Void Engineers directly!"

"New contacts appearing all around the system... got IDs on some, both Void Engineer and New Chaos! Reinforcements, and it looks like the fighting is getting really really hot!"

>>21942453

Also, contact the UEFA and VE, get them sensor recording and what information we have on Chaos EVAs, as well as the JF. Ask for anything they can spare to reinforce the line.

>>21942453
Start up the VX Spigot on the Brasta to pop the AT fields.

>>21942453

Shit... Should have saved the DD.

Destroids and Madcats to take Point defence positions.

VF-25s Reaction warhead use, authorised. Catch as many as you can in the first wave.

Deploy Mecha Godzilla.

>>21942557

5 minute cooldown.

Until then, make do with a bank Modal Ion Siege Blasters.

>>21942453
AUH, Guardian, and Relentless, use tractor beams to hold EVA-Titans in place to be pounded on.
Hiigaran Soulchipped Scouts, concentrate EMP's on the NC Battleships. You're unlikely to be of use against the EVA's.

Gaia Gear, Brasta, Hyaku Shiki, all launch.

Jovian Federation contingent, launch all mechs.

Storm, Indefatigable, Mikasa concentrate fire on the SuperCarrier.

Armorfleet, Gallente Task Force, Protoss Fleet, Hiigaran Fleet, concentrate on defense.

Mechagodzilla, Kiryu, launch and engage the EVA's alongside the DITE Drone Ship.

Have all pilot squadrons switch to targeting the EVA's, have the TIE-D/C's finish off enemy fighters.

Build an extra 6 Repair Frigates, and try to hail the VE ship to enter our defense envelope to be repaired.

>>21942538
I think it's time for our forces to get down to earth and save the world. Things up here will most likely only keep escalating until we get the Deus ex Machina. We need to contact the VE and UEFA and see if they'll work together.

>>21942576

You don't even.
What?

EVE ships can't track shit that small, put them on offense so they can hit the goddamn capital ships and put all DPS on it.

>>21942576
Sounds good, proceed with these tactics.
>>21942596
I agree, am confirming responses/lack of with OP in IRC.
>>21942599
Also agree, make this modification to above tactics.

>>21942538
Status report on the Tria; how much longer before it can be fielded?

Have the Destroids deploy onto the surface of the Storm to provide fire support.

Have the Farseers, Tosh, Psions, X-COM Vets, and Cheryl get ready the Psionic Matrix. Have them interface with a Protoss High Templar to boost the power of its Psi Storm to encompass the entire approaching EVA force.

>>21942599

We can if we Tackle the lot of them but we don't have enough frigates. Need more ships.

If we had enough we could slow all of them down and the EVE fleet could primary each of then one by one.

>>21942576
If you're going to launch the MechaGodzilla at least have a plan. Which in that case, they are NOT engaging anything. The MechaGodzilla are to engage in mass AT neutralization. They need to use their own AT fields to attempt to drop as many New Chaos AT fields as possible. The SY-3 and Mikasa are to support the MechaGodzilla. I want the Absolute Zero Cannon firing at any openings and being used to shoot down anything too close to the G-Force Group.

Char's Gaia Gear needs to hang back and use it's Funnels primarily, heading back into the ship to reload on them if they're all destroyed. It being one of our few anti-AT field suits means it can't be shot forward into the enemy mass all willy nilly.

At this time, your commlinks sputters to life.

"Read you, Task Force 38. This is the VEN Mothership Magellan responding. We've taken heavy damage from that last engagement. If you cover our descent planetside... we, at least, will discuss some form of aid. We have civilians onboard. Battleship Ptolemy will move to repair range, we're too far gone."

There is no response from the UEFA, but that's no surprise considering the amount of jamming and the fact there are none of their forces nearby.

The Hiigaran Fleet and the VF-25 Squadron can cover the Magellan's descent.
Flak and Missile Frigates keep enemy units away and tank any incoming hits. Defense Frigates provide a defense field for the Magellan as it escapes the battlefield.
Task a Repair Frigate and the Nocturne's remote repair capability to the Ptolemy.

>>21942530
The R-types fire their wave cannons, but the EVAs dodge out of the way, wings of light erupting from their backs and guiding them through space.

The Drone Ship begins turning towards the EVAs, and while its drones are smashed apart by the Titans, its cutting beams slice through their AT-Fields, destroying a pair that get too close.

Cheryl lets you know they can't get all of them, but they'll try to get as many as possible. The psionic team begins assembling.

Your mech pilots begin scrambling as the VFs fire reaction warheads at the incoming EVA-Titans. The missiles manage to overwhelm a few of the monstrous machines, but a distressing amount make it through the bombardment. As your mech pilots board, you get a transmission from the hangar bay.

"Hey," the image of Jack Archer says. "Still dunno about this whole insane shindig you have going, but I don't really like sitting on my hands when people are dying around me. I noticed you fixed up my VF. Mind if I take it for a spin?"

>>21942836

"Permission granted Mr Archer. Good luck and good hunting."

>>21942836

Sortie when directed, Mr. Archer.

We'll feed you tactical data ASAP.

Squirt data to Jack while he waits to launch, and have him assist our VF-25 squadron.

>>21942836
"Sure, but first, head to the medbay to be outfitted with Cortical Stack. No sense going out there without one."

Have MechaGodzilla and Kiryu launch, and neutralize as many enemy AT Fields as they can.

>>21942872
>>21942877

Shit, hes going out there in a hopelessly outdated Valk and not even a super pack.

He is going to get himself killed.

>>21942836
You want to take one of the VF-25s? Or are you good with the VF-01? At least get a Super Pack attached before you launch?

>>21942836
And have Vitun give Cheryl a Bit of Luck so that she gets 2 rolls.

>>21942836
>>21942872
>>21942877
Absolutely Mr. Archer. Be warned, what you're about to face have powers that can warp space and time. But they are not invincible. Godspeed.

>>21942911

No spare VF-25s.

We even have a commando pilot sitting in the lounge because we didn't replace them.

>>21942911

We should ask that, too.

>>21942907
>>21942914
Both seconded.

>>21942938
That Commando pilot is in a TIE Defender right now.

>>21942968

Inventory needs an update then.

Still point stands, we don't have a spare Messiah since we didn't research their production.

>>21942660
The Magellan begins moving planetside as the Ptolemy moves towards you, firing a devastating barrage of energy beams that slice through one of the New Chaos battleships only to be ripped apart by the retaliation fire before it can be repaired.

The Oncoming Storm focuses its considerable firepower on the SuperCarrier, but only manages to weaken its immense shields.

The Armorfleet and Gallente Task Force work better, managing to destroy another battleship between them despite the heavy losses of the Astarte Command Ship, the Megathrons, and another 20 Abaddons. In addition, a group of EVA-Titans closes to range and rips apart the 5 Damnations with their melee weapons, what appear to be replicas of the Lance of Longinus.

The All Under Heaven suffers a sustained salvo and its shields go down even as another New Chaos battleship goes up in flames thanks to a joint attack by it and several Carriers from the Protoss fleet.

The EVA continue to streak towards you.

>>21942999

What? Didn't get a lucky reroll via Vitun like we asked, MetaOP?

>>21942999

Could have some Protoss Arbiters use their Stasis ability on the EVAs. Give us some time to prep a gauntlet for them to go through, or for us to time a psionic storm of sufficient proportions.

Should we have the AUH retreat from the front lines while its shields recharge, and the Protoss fleet try to plug in the gap?

>>21942999
Al'Kesh attempt to beam survivors from the Ptolemy to safety for later revival.
MechaGodzilla and Kiryu hurry and deploy, and neutralize those AT Fields.

Also, make sure that Char, Crowe, and our TG Pilot also deploy and provide fire support.

Have Vitun use a Bit of Luck to help out the Psi Matrix and Cheryl.

Also, have the Protoss Fleet make use of Arbiters to Stasis Field the incoming EVA's.

Have one of the Support Frigates begin immediate repairs on the AUH to get its shields back up.

Have the Indefatigable stay at-range and fire spreads of quantum and photon torpedoes at the incoming EVA's.

"Someone already gave me one, it looks like. Well, off I go," Jack says, warming up his engines.

"Here, we'll go with you," Crowe transmits, the Brasta coming online.

"We'll all fire from long range in formation," Char states, the Gaia Gear beginning to launch. "The Hyaku Shiki will cover us."

"Sounds like a plan," Archer says. "Lets get rolling!"

Your mechs launch, getting into position barely in time as the EVAs soar into range. Fire from Destroids and Madcats alike pepper the AT-Fields of the incoming bogeys, but only a few go down, the hasty preparations of the pilots downgrading their effectiveness severely. A quartet of EVA-Titans flies towards the Oncoming Storm, landing on its hull to duel with the Destroids and Mad Cats there at close range. Your pilots are no fools, they attempt to encircle one and focus it down, alpha-striking to pierce its AT-Field. They even succeed, but there are three more that use that time to close distance and slash the mechs aparts. Your Destroids are the first to go, MP-Lances cleaving through their cockpits as they desperately attempt to form up again. They fight bravely and do not die cheaply, continuing to fire at close range even while suffering catastrophic damage. However, they are simply no match for these monsters and fall. The Clan Mad-Cats stand their ground and continue to fire, stubbornly holding the line...

And then the Gaia Gear zooms overhead, finishing off a damaged EVA-Titan with a Fin Funnel storm. The second suffers a cockpit shot from the Brasta's long range rifle, while the third is finished off by an Itano Circus maneuver from Jack.

However, not all your ships have mechs near them as guards and a chill runs through your spine as one of the EVA-Titans in the center of the formation begins to twist and mutate...

New Chaos Forces:

Cheryl howls in pain as she focuses the power of everyone present under the guidance of the Protoss Templar, a maelstrom of psychic fury boiling over into the material world and tearing apart a group of 12 EVA-Titans initiating an attack run on the All Under Heaven.

While that happens, the EVA unit that had begun acting oddly begins to shift form, great bronze bat-wings unfurling from its back, its high-tech armor plating morphing in form to ornate bronze armor. Its lance turns into an axe, and the mechanical faces melts away and reforms into a woman's face that would be pretty were it not for the look of wanton cruelty on it. A made of red hair bursts from the head and there is a definite resemblance to a teenage pilot of long ago.

"Hear me!" she bellows across space, her words reverberating in your mind. "Task Force 38, you've given us quite a fight. I like that. I can admire the fact that in the middle of a warzone with thousands of ships that could smash you like an ant, you're still going to fight, and I like that you did it intelligently. I like it so much that I'm giving you a chance to join us rather than be torn to pieces. You, specifically, I mean. I'm going to smash your flagship if you say no." She grins, evilly. "Cliched? Oh yes, but that's what makes it FUN. So what will it be? Either you join us and I get some new toys, or you fight us and I get some fun. I win either way, so it doesn't make that much of a difference to me."

"CHAR WE ARE SENDING YOU THE EBON LANCE! TAKE IT, GO WITH JACK AND CROWE, AND DESTROY THAT WOMAN WITH ALL THE FURY YOU'VE EVER FELT!"

Teleport the Ebon Lance to a location for pickup by the Brasta, then focus all fire on the Avatar of Asukhon. Speaking of, I propose magicking her out of existence. Suggestions?

>>21943379
"Lady, just you wait. We've only begun to fight."

>>21943379
Right, there's only one way to deal with the avatar of a wannabe god. We have to cross the steams. Get the Absolute Zero Cannon, the VX Spigot, any Photon Beams on our ships, and whatever other large super powered beam and that really shouldn't be mixed with another and then point them all at her.

"You know, I'd have a pithy line here, but I used my last one on Chaosbringer. So, in the immortal words of our planet. UP YOURS!"

The Ebon Lance is prepped and teleported out as beam weapons begin to lock on.

"Pfah. I think the 'nuts' one was the best out of that lot. Got me all nostalgic. I wonder if it's also how your souls will taste," the Avatar says, gripping her axe. She vanishes just as a salvo of energy weapons criss-crosses the space where she had been, reappearing only a few miles out from the Oncoming Storm, soaring towards you with a look of feral glee on her face.

"New contact!"

"It's coming in faster than we can track! Where did it come from?! It's going...Right towards Ms. Sunshine there!"

"Behind me?!" Asukhon snarls, turning just in time to parry the charge of an impossibly fast silver blur carrying a blade. Her charge interrupted, she tumbles through the air for a moment. "Who dares..."

The silver blur slows and turns, letting you get a good look at it.

"That's..." one of the crew begins to say.

"CYBUSTER!!!!" Holtz shouts, dropping his cane and bracing himself on a console. "MASAKI!!!!"

>>21943601

Keep firing, all ships are to maintain hitting the EVAs, Crowe, Char and Mechagodzilla, hit the red bitch there.

Armorfleet, Nocturne and our Erebus, his the NC Capitals, leave the supercarrier for last.

How long until the DD is ready?

Vitun, use whatever magic you can to increase our odds of success.

Protoss, I suggest you hit the EVAs with your carrier's drone while you hit their capitals with your main batteries. Stasis fields would be nice too.

Establish comms ASAP with the Cybuster.

Any comms from UEFA or VE since last contact? Send a couple observers to set up a relay and start hailing and asking for fire support.

>>21943601

Also make sure the Godzillas have been deployed to begin neutralizing the EVAs' AT fields.

>>21943632

Additional: Have Cheryl and the Matrix attempt to shield our pilots and Mechagodzilla's minds from infiltration or corruption, although Asukhon is the weakest psyker, we can't rule out possible attempted rage-corruption.

"A friend of yours, Holtz?
"Anyway, useful distraction. Char, Crowe, Yamada, use it!"

Try to get a comm channel open with the Cybuster.

Have the EVE Fleet, the Gallente Task Force, the Erebus, and the Nocturne's drones continue pounding away at the NC battleships.

MechaGodzilla and Kiryu still need to deploy and begin neutralizing the EVA's AT-Fields.

Protoss Fleet, have an Arbiter Stasis Field the Supercarrier, and any others you have Stasis Field the approaching EVA's. All Carriers to launch drones.
DITE Drone Ship, use drones and disintegration beams against the EVA's.

Check if the EVA's are protected from our teleporters; if not, then use the transporters to Code 14 the EVA pilots.

Have the Psionic Matrix on defense now that we know there's an Avatar here to prevent Warp sorcerous attacks.

SY-3 Squadron and Mikasa still target the Asukhon.

R-9A and R-9C, target the EVA's, all other piloted squadrons to provide them with support.

Again, there are no UEFA forces in the area. The Void Engineer ship asked for cover and began retreating and has not said anything since.

The image of a green-haired young man appears on your comm screen as you hail him. A white cat and a black cat are to either side of him.

"Hm? Hey Holtz. Didn't expect to see you here!" Masaki says, grinning.

"What the hell are you doing here?!" Holtz roars. "Wait... no... not even you..."

"He got lost," the white cat says with a sigh.

"Holy shit, that fucking cat talked!" someone in the crew says. Holtz smacks him on the back of the head, then turns back to Masaki.

"You got lost... how..." Holtz murmurs, then shakes his head. "Nevermind, we'll figure it out later!"

"Anyway, knowing you're on that boat makes it easier for me to decide which side I'm on here. Guess I'll lend you a hand!" Masaki says, Cybuster charging towards Asukhon only to have its blade parried by the monumental axe.

"Pfah! I didn't expect to run into the Lord of the Wind here..." Asukhon grumbles. She grins. "But... things are getting more and more interesting!"

"I'll show you some true zero distance shooting!" Crowe shouts as he charges the VX-SPIGOT and charges in, firing. Asukhon lets most of the beams hit her with disdain, short-range teleporting out of the way when the final beam burns towards her. A Mega-Launcher shot impacts against her AT-Field and she growls, turning to sever the legs off of the Hyaku Shiki in a single impossibly fast charge.

"Yamada here, returning for emergency repairs!" he gets out, flying back to the Storm. Cybuster soars in to slash with the Discutter, getting in a minor hit as Asukhon grins and raises her axe to retaliate. Suddenly the Ebon Lance is jutting from her chest, Char choosing the precisely right time to throw the weapon. Asukhon howls in pain and rips the projectile out from her.

"Neat toy..." she snarls. "I can't maintain my hold on this body... but just you wait! I'll be here soon myself soon enough!"

With that, the Avatar twists and reforms back into a destroyed EVA-Titan.

The Ebon Lance of Longinus goes sailing towards Asukhon just as Crowe flies past her.

"I have no idea... maybe?" Cheryl says.

>>21953783
Please try it. See if you can connect with Crowe's Sphere, and use it to call for Rand, Setsuko, and the ZEXIS/ZEUTH forces.
Also, I want Vitun up here with his hand on your shoulder so we can get double rolls on it.

We also need to get our troops on the surface. How long would it take to prep drop ships and send them down with the VE Ship that's landing? We also need to provide cover for them, so if we do so, we might be able to take care of two birds with one stone. We can even have MechaGodzilla and Kiryu follow them down to provide AT Field cover at their rears.

>>21953783
Cheryl and the Psi-Matrix, do another psi storm to destroy the remaining EVA's. Vitun, provide them with a Bit of Luck.

Have the Jovians, MG, and Kiryu launched yet? If not, get them deployed.

Also, see if our transporters can beam through the AT-Fields of the EVA's; if they can, then begin initiating Code 14 attacks against the EVA pilots.

Have the Support Frigates begin repairs on the AUH.

>>21953783
Also, now that the Avatar of Adukhon is gone, have the Mikasa and the SY-3 Squadrons fire on the EVA's.

>>21953783
Though the rest of the Gallente Task Force are overwhelmed in the fighting, the remaining New Chaos Battleships are destroyed by the massed power of your fleet.

A shimmering angular field of energy envelops and entraps the SuperCarrier, preventing it from taking further part in the battle. However, the EVA-Titans it launched are already mixed among your fleet and too spread out to be affected.

"FOR JUSTICE AND JOVE!!!" a cry comes over your communication channels as the Jovian mechs launch. Using the automated Battas as a screen, the squadron of Gekiganger-type mecha advance to weapons range and begin laying into the foe with Gravity Blasters, the wide area beams ignoring the AT-Fields of the foe as they simply compress matter into bits in their path. Several EVA-Titans fall to this tactic, and the squadron is soon marked as a priority target.

Jack fires long range missiles, Crowe and Char snipe, and the remaining Mad Cats cover with their weapons as best they can in the mean-time.

New Chaos Forces:
1 SuperCarrier.(stasis)
260 EVA-Titans.

>Lose all ships: Gallente Task Force.
>Jovians lose 40 Battas.
>Update continuing, please wait.

>>21954269
Damn, I wish we'd lost the EVE Fleet instead; the Gallente ships had Reality Emitters at least.

>>21954269

After this we should check the wreckage for surviving REs.

Next time we fit them to EVE ships, we should link them to the PODs. That way they eject with it.

But damn, the entire Gallente taskforce? Your sacrifice will not be forgotten my countrymen.

>>21954269

Your R-types swing around and launch devastating beams of energy that completely overwhelm the EVA-Titans caught in their path. Your fighters join in strafing runs and bombardment, masses of starships flying around, landing shot after shot in the hopes of causing an AT-Field to fail.

Mecha-Godzilla and Kiryu deploy, using their AT-Fields to neutralize the fields of clusters of the EVA-Titans, allowing them to be more directly damaged. Between the mass of fire and this tactic, a handful more are destroyed. However, a great number manage to reach your capital ships and begin cleaving into the hull and firing point blank. At such close range, most of your fighters dare not strike for fear of hitting the vessel they are trying to save. A pair of Protoss Carriers go up in psionic flames as squads of EVA-Titans successfully breach their power cores. Elsewhere, a flight manages to successfully tear apart some of the Armorfleet's support vessels. Everywhere across the board, your capital vessels reports EVA-Titans latching on and begin to cleave through their armor.

New Chaos Forces:
1 SuperCarrier.(stasis)
202 EVA-Titans. (150 assaulting capitals. 52 engaged with fighters and mecha.)
>Lose 10 Guardians.

>>21954497
>And another 50 TIE-D/Cs and 12 X-Wings.

>>21954497

Fighter weaponry won't do much damage compared to a rampaging EVA.

Clear anti-EVA strikes on boarding EVAs, fellow crewmen?

And/or BLOWOUT SOON, CHAOS SCUM?

>>21954269
Pull back the Jovian mechs. Have the ships cover their retreat.

What are our fabricatable equivalents to Battas?

>>21954497
Have MechaGodzilla and Kiryu set AT Neutralization to as Wide as possible, then get the Mikasa to fire the Absolute Zero Cannon in as wide a sweep as it can.

Vitun give Cheryl the extra luck Reroll, and Cheryl do something. See if you can summon ZEUTH/ZEXIS or Blowout or something.

Get our dropships ready and apply a cover screen to the retreating VE ship. Some of the EVA have broken through our line, it may be time to fall back to Earth. At least get the command crew and troops ready to evacuate. We really need to send a drop ship down.

>>21954497
If it would affect the Evas, I'd like to see if our ships could perform an extremely small hyperspace jump.

If it works anything like Star Wars, they'll be turned into dust as soon as the jump happens.

We'd have to ask the computer if it'll work, first though.

>>21954497

Direct Char, Crowe and Yamda when they come back to pry EVA units off ships with close combat.

Pry them off only, once they have been kicked off ships, our fighter squadrons can pummel them.

Mecha-Godzilla is to move to the areas where he can cover as many of the EVA units assaulting our ships and Neut their AT Fields. Transport our XCOM NOVA squad and Marc as well as our KI devastators to engage the enemy. Blaster Bombs and heavy weapons to blow up key weakpoints and knock them out. Prawn combat suits to the others, collect their ammunition and send it back to them.

Mouse, gather with the remaining Sandmen, begin combat hacking of EVA units. Spoof their electronics into thinking they're out of power, disrupt their fire control systems or populsion, do what you can to sabotage them.

Direct a few TIE/D to crash into some exposed EVA units. Use their Solar arrays. With luck we should be able to dislodge a few of them.

Mad Cats on the AUH, destroy the assaulting EVAs on our ship.

>>21954672

HOw about this? We have the fleet bunch up, then have some Protoss Arbiters recall the fleet?

IIRC, Recall doesn't affect enemies, only allies. Thus, the ships will be warped out to a safe distance, while the EVAs will be left floating in space.

>>21954497

Also, its about time.

DD on the SuperCarrier

>>21954702

Do we have enough arbiters for this? Can this work?

>>21954741

We don't exactly know the composition of the Protoss fleet. But Recall can affect anywhere from 12 marines to 12 battlecruisers so long as they're bunched up enough. Not sure how this would translate on a more realistic scale, however.

>>21954676
They're EVA titans. They're probably much bigger then the Brasta or Gaia Gear. Infact I know they are.

Second, you want to set off Blaster Bombs next to our ship? Do you want to blow holes in our hull?

Third, EVAs are Bio-Mechanical. Is it even possible to hack them?

>>21954676
An EVA Titan is the size of Mechagodzilla. The three mechs are much smaller than that.

>>21954497
Where is the Cybuster? Did Masaki become so lost again, he's at the bridge next to Holtz somehow?

>>21954794

They're also the only units we have available to dislodge them. All I want them to do is knock them off the ships. Crowe could easily do this with his Spiker Lance Ammo and charging.

I'd rather have smaller holes, by comparison, that losing the ship.

Considering that they got hacked by an Angel Virus, YES.

>>21954497
Can the ships execute a micro-hyperspace Jump to dislodge the EVA's on their hulls?

Also, have the Psi Matrix concentrate psi attacks on the EVA's that have gotten onto the hulls; attack the pilots, as they're easier to kill.

Also, have we heard anything back on whether our transporters can get through the AT Fields?

>>21954843
The Angel Virus was an Angel. It was shown multiple times that an Angel can take over an EVA. We however have no angels, and since they're organic, normal hacking most likely won't work.

>>21954843
You want 20m tall units to dislodge a bunch of 70m tall units. It's not going to happen. And blaster bombs don't create small holes. They create huge holes.

>>21954873

Evangelion units are cyborgs. That angel virus invaded NERV HQ computer systems as well. Even then, their weapons are not bio-weapons. Theres at least hardware and software to hack.

>>21954497
We need backup. Have Cheryl try and summon ZEUTH/ZEXIS. The extra mecha will help us immensely, especially since they have SUPER ROBOTS in their forces. Something we are sorely lacking.

>>21954769

OP, approximately how many Arbiters do the Protoss battlefleet have? Would they be able to recall our capital ships in short order?

>>21954641
The Magellan is already being covered by the Rodger Young and the Hiigaran Fleet. They're already on the way out of this battlefield and the EVA's are no longer in position to be able to intercept them.

>>21954672
ANON: "It may or may not. Unknown."

>>21954542
The closest you have is probably the Hiigaran Fighters.

>>21954702
You can recall a significant portion, but not all of your fleet.

>>21955038
What about transporters? Can we beam through the Void Shields and AT-Fields that the EVA-Titans use?

File: 1355024740049.jpg-(702 KB, 1629x705, SIZE CHART.jpg)

Okay guys, this is a size chart edited to tell you how big is what, in this thread.

>>21955038
Have Al'Kesh 1 test its transporters by using a Code 14 transport to kill the pilot of an EVA-Titan that's engaging the fighters.
If it works, we'll have the other 5 Al'Kesh and the Indefatigable use it to kill the EVA-Titans that are attacking our capital ships.

>>21955038

Recall those in the area where we can catch as much of our friendly fleet.

>>21955060

If we can, then use ship teleporters to tell the bastards to get off our ships.

>>21955140

Should we prioritize ships to recall? Obviously, the AUH and Oncoming Storm are top priority. But which ships come after those, if we can? The remaining ships may become targets for even more concentrated EVA assault.

Also, we need to have some measures to get the EVA Titans if they pursue their capital ship quarry.

>>21955038
We are NOT using Char, Crowe, and Yamada in misguided attempt to get the EVA's off of our ships, nor are we sending the infantry out into a fight where they'd just be wasted.

Have the ships that won't be captured by the Recall to calculate micro-hyperspace Jumps to the Recall area.
Coordinate so that we don't end up jumping into each other.
Recall and Jump at the same time so that we don't leave ships behind away from support.

Once Al'Kesh 1 tests its transporters, and if it works, begin teleporter attacks against the EVA-Titans attacking our ships that survived the hyperspace jump.

Vitun, give Cheryl a Bit of Luck and have the Psi Matrix attack the minds of the EVA-Titan princep-pilots.

>>21955237
The Relentless and Guardian can attempt micro-hyperspace jumps to knock the EVA-Titans off of them.

The EVE Fleet should concentrate fire on the Supercarrier as soon as the Stasis Field wears off.

>>21955237
If the EVA-Titans pursue, then we can concentrate capital ship fire on their approaches, using ANON and the RVF-25 to provide improved targeting information, and the tractor beams to hold the EVA's in place so that the shots actually land.

The Oncoming Storm has the targeting resolution to shoot a human-sized target in space, so long as its not engaging in evasives. We should be able to punch through the AT-Fields and Void Shields.

Support Frigates do repairs on the ships as they appear back in formation.

Further orders upon knowing how badly we got damaged.

Cheryl and the psions linked to her concentrate and pool their powers. The EVA-Titans assaulting the Oncoming Storm and any within 2 miles of it suddenly stop in place as their pilots' heads explode within their cockpits despite the heavy shielding afforded them against such assaults.

Your micro-hyperspace doesn't seem to work, the EVA-Titan's shielding enabling them to survive the transit to and from hyperspace. It does however seem to momentarily disorient them, and they pause in their attack.

The Jovians continue to lay into the EVA-Titans despite the loss of their Batta-shield, and the Drone Ship moves closer to the All Under Heaven, picking off the EVA-Titans ripping into it with precision cutting beams and drones. Despite this, the Super Star Destroyer has suffered damage in several places.

The capital ships of your fleet continue to suffer damage from the EVA-Titans laying into them, the Armorfleet's Proteuses destructing under a sudden concentrated strike by two EVA-Titan squads.

The Spirit of Triumph reports that it is suffering heavy damage from a concentrated attack.

Your Arbiters attempt to recall several clusters of ships in an attempt to shake off their gigantic boarders, but something goes wrong. Though the maneuver succeeds in ridding a fair number of ships of their 'guests', several do not reappear when the Recall is completed, and there is no sign of where they have gone.

Oh god what.

MetaOP, after this manuveur, how many EVA-Titans are still assaulting our capitals?

Because I'd expected more of the Titans to be floating in space.

>>21955713
>>21955619
We need to divert the TIE-D Scrap Squadron, R-9C Squadron, Galaga, Gunstar, and the SY-3 Squadron and the Mikasa to support the Spirit.
Starfox Team, lead the squadron in clearing the Spirit of Triumph of those EVA's.

We'll also need to put the TIE-D/C queue on hold, and shift production to Support Frigates to repair the damage that the task force is suffering.

AUH, Guardian, Relentless, use your tractor beams to push the EVA-Titans off of your hulls and into the firing arcs of your turbolaser batteries while they're still disoriented.

Vitun, give Cheryl and the Psi Matrix another Bit of Luck. Cheryl, clear the AUH of EVA's.

Has the Hyaku-Shiki been repaired yet?
Once it is, equip it with the Ebon Lance of Longinus.
Char and Crowe, continue long-range sniping of EVA's. Concentrate fire on one at a time.

>>21955806
R-9A Squadron, FIRE LEO-2, X-COM Squadron, X-Wing Squadron, clear the EVA-Titans from the Guardian and Relentless.

Oncoming Storm, switch to anti-matter missiles, phasers, phaser cannons and singularity lasers, and use targeting from the RVF-25 to destroy the EVA-Titans that you can.

VF-25 and TIE Defender Squadrons, help the Starfox Team and the others in protecting the Spirit of Triumph.

Indefatigable, clear the Hercules, then move on to the Relentless.

The combined power of your psions manage to kill the pilots of the EVA-Titans crawling on the All Under Heaven. Their hearts explode as nightmarish visions beyond even what they are used to wrack their minds, their brains fry as raw psychic power pulses through them, their bodies shut down as Cheryl manipulates their processes to death.

The Star Destroyers report that not all of the EVA-Titans on them are within the operational arc of their tractor beams, but they'll nab what they can.

>>21956243
Actually, shit, can we deploy the Containment Towers and prevent those souls from going towards New Chaos and being sucked up by the Gods?

Were Freespace ships ever considered for our fleet?
A SD Lucifer or two could rape anything. And if we include fanmade ships shit would positively get crazy.

>>21956417
Possibly during one of the requisition phases. However, much of the time we needed to use our requisitions on either ground forces, equipment, or ships used to provide us with our own construction capabilities.

>>21956374

MetaOP mentioned that the EVA Titans are using false lances.

I'm thinking we AT LEAST need to reverse engineer them or collect them if they are untainted.

>>21956513
>reverse engineer
We can already create transpace lances. The research needed to make them mech sized is probably the same as reverse engineering a Mass Production Lance of Longinus that is different than our own transpace lances.

>>21956554

Well, that then.

Was thinking of a Point Defence gun firing MP LoLs.
