Some of the new experimental Vespertiliones dreadnoughts have been reported to be on course for the Shadow Empire space.
They seem to be escorted by a few Ur-Quan ships to ensure they arrive in a timely fashion.

"Planet Sihaya. Max security laboratories of the Tearkia of Vrs."

A massive place built completely underground, shielded from radiation and interferences of any kind. The complex is huge, more than the city above, pristine and filled with Midions of the scientist caste. The first levels are for engineers and their like: here and there, hover tanks and artillery pieces are been upgraded and augmented with new technology. Exoskeleton are been assembled and .50 cal for infantrymen are assembled with the best in gyrojet technology [Wikipedia that, it is interesting] and ammunitions with antimatter cores.

The levels below are for physics projects: engine for starships, propulsion system, battle computer components, armors and shields for starships.
Here, the Elder scientist can observe more of the Warrior caste, especially the dreaded Bleeding Lances: as the one accompanying them, they are grim warriors dressed in silver armor, with the gold insignia of the Tearkia on the chest. Around him, their lances dance thanks to their psionics, weapons as long as a Midion is tall, with a 2 /5 of them made of obsidian- like monomolecular blade. His name is Katr, but he's a Midion of few words: in his composite eyes there is a grief that almost dominate him. It is Arel that explain what the Elder scientist see and answer their question.
But the more they descend in those laboratories, the more uncompressible their surrounding become: the place is filled with dread, and Katr become more silent and harsh the more they get close to their destination.

"...And this, as you can see honored guests, is where we keep the most... uncooperative of our projects."
"To say the least." snarled Katr: "...We paid a terrible price for capturing it. And killing the rest of its kin."
A gigantic shutter open in front of them, reveling a single being, kept in stasis with force fields. It's a corpse, scarred and burned.
"We studied very carefully the book you shared with us, the Curse Prayers." said Arel: "...We believe what we have found, is a spawn of Shub Niggurath. But we would like to know your opinion about it."

That's...it's the spawn of an Old One...I I can't believe it

"They attacked from the Darkness among the Galaxy a little more than one year ago: we closed our border to better contain their attack." declared Katr: "...Many gave their life to stop them."
"Martyrdom is an holy duty if it is for the prosperity of all." declared Arel.
"I know... I only wish I could have joined my family in it." snarled Katr: "...I'm sorry honored guests: sorrow fill my mind like sands in the wind."
"The danger has not passed Elder." continued Arel: "...What our prophets perceive, what the Archprophet Saasti gave her life to stall, and the enemy we prepare to fight since almost a generation, is coming. This specimen was only a member of the vanguards of the army that is coming. We have secured our borders. We have built mighty engines of destruction and battle stations: we have made every single world we colonized a fortress. Our cruisers already patrol the darkness among the stars, while we upgrade our dreadnoughts for the battle that is to come.
But it is not enough.
The enemy is coming. In 18 standard months they will be here, and not even the Midions can stop them completely: we can be the rock that will split the wind in two, but they will pour on the rest of the Galaxy like rain. We will need your help and your technology to stop them forever.
Or there will be no more a Galaxy to speak of."

[But lets say that we have scientists there and you show them the creature]

[Particulars unimportant as you can see: I wished to transmit the idea of a menace big enough to unite every other power in the galaxy to fight it.]

[Or the AI core. We need Wolfshield for them however]

 

[LordDamien]

Seeing their apparant victory, the Khendros set up a military perimeter and set some ships to start bombarding the planet(s?) and began with targiting all military and official building while the others were prepared for the fleet to decloak and countinued to send missiles to their determined location.

The First Armada Commander watched in horror as his beloved home world was bombarded by the enemy. He could do nothing until he saw what appeared to be ships heading in his direction. Yes ships and they were flagged as friendlys. Apparently someone had sent him some dreadnoughts to help. Yes this would do well.. They could help the Destroyers with the counter attack. He ordered the dreadnoughts to link with the Armada and then they will cloak and move into position.

The 3rd Armarda was ordered to de cloak behind the enemy ships and begin to fire with Anti Matter Misslies as well as bomber Fighters that would attack the ships. As the third armada did that.. The second and first moved into position and began to fire at the attacking ships as well. Now the ships were being attacked from both front and back. Hopefully this will turn the tide of the battle

( How many ship do you have ?. )

 

[Caspoi]

[Particulars unimportant as you can see: I wished to transmit the idea of a menace big enough to unite every other power in the galaxy to fight it.]

In that case the Khendros remain sceptical to all of your information (when they will arrived etc. but we will countinue to expand our fleet nonetheless.

 

[Joe Joerson]

The Ur-Quan fleet of Dreadnoughts, arrive in the Shadow Empire's system, they disgorge fighter craft and prepare to engage as soon as possible. First they send a transmission to the Khendros Empire Fleet. Full video they say,

"I am Lord 354, Khendros Fleet stand aside from our Battle Thralls world. However I wonder how your own worlds would fare with this fleet far from them, as our dreadnoughts encroach. Leave this place or face the Wrath of the Ur-Quan Kzer-Za!"

 

[Solicitius]

"We offer opportunity. We would escort some of your scientists aboard our Dreadnoughts to a location. There is a... ...structure there. We wish for new insight into how the device may work. We offer this opportunity to you. No tracking of the location will be permitted."

We are interested in studying this object together.

We are sending a little group of Midion from the Scientist caste and a single Bleeding Lance as escort to be received on board of your vessel. No tracking will be attempted, but every single one of our envoys will be equipped with antimatter subdermal bombs: should something happens to them, they will not be made prisoners.

 

[Melian Erios]

To the Galactic Science Consortium,

"The Ur-Quan wish to discuss the possibility of a joint research project."

Whilst we are somewhat wary of you we believe that this would be somewhat advantageous, our one condition is that you maintain your view of us as a neutral party.

 

[Gregsplays]

The prime Minister stands looking solemnly at the stars, waiting
"Sir, are you okay" (royal fleet commander Regis (an android))
"thinking Regis"
"the GSS New Horizon will be okay"
"i hope so"
The PM returned inside the parliament, lightly examining the leaves of the plants on the balcony
"I hope so"

( How many ship do you have ?. )

[Around 50 battleships, mediumsized but equipped with more weapons and point defense systems than most heavy ships. They are specialised in long range bombardment with the missiles being able to hit even far away enemy ships and the point defense systems shooting down any return fire or smaller fighters, and you?]

Seeing what they had prepared for the fleet immideatly begun firing more missiles at the enemy, leaving a few behind to countinue bombard more and more planetary targets.

[By now this has caught up with the Ur-Quan and their message has been sent, the response: ]

The Shadow Empire has attempted genocide and broken all galactic laws, even you are against that, no? The message sent to you was by a false government which does not Control it's own home system, it lacks legitimacy and you do not need to respond to it.

 

[Joe Joerson]

"This is allowable."

[LordDamien can handle the Ur-Quan Dreadnoughts in the Shadow Empire system. I have to go for a little while. The Ur-Quan Dreadnoughts would rather avoid a confrontation there. As well they would use their Fusion blasts and the Electromagnetic Pulses generated from the fusion reaction to stop missiles and other electronic weapons from reaching the fleet. I will be back in around a hour. The Ur-Quan have 32 Dreadnoughts in system with full fighter complement of 10 fighters per Dreadnought.]

 

[Solicitius]

The Midions continue to build stronghold on the galactic perimeter, upgrading their dreadnought with lightning cannons.
Focus of the army at the moment is not bigger numbers, but stronger troops.

 

[Ultimuh]

As the battle continues, the Vespertiliones seem to have gone quiet since they launched their new dreadnoughts into Shadow Empire space. Most would dismiss this, however smart empires should be wary.
But whatever their intentions might be, the Vespertiliones seem to be developing something for their smaller ships.

 

[Haldan]

*The Yoggoth prepare to colonize their fifth planet, dubbed "Za-shub", a tropical world in the Anarvad system. Two mining stations already scour the system for it's resources. The frontier border is kept on a short leash and close watch by a segment of the Yoggoth navy - numerically small. It is however, equipped with powerful plasma weaponry and pseudo-sentient combat computers.*

Seeing the Overlords Ships.. The First Armada commander Sent a Hail to them and asked them to join the Armada. They would not be fighting as he knew his overlord was not someone that wanted to fight although if they had too they will. He placed the Ur- Quan Dreadnoughts in front of the Armada and watched as they Activated their fusion blasts and Electromagnetic pules that blocked all the missiles that were heading towards the fllet. The fleet Commander smiled as he split up the dreadnoughts of his overlord to cover all of hsi Armadas and protect them from enemy fire.

[ Shadow Empire total Ships are 42 Desroyers, 32 Dreadnoughts from overlord, 72 Corvetts , 10 Dreadnoughts from ally )

 

[Ultimuh]

((Don't forget the dreadnoughts and minor ships I have sent.))

((Don't forget the dreadnoughts and minor ships I have sent.))

[ How many did you send ?. You never said a number lol ]

An urgent message blares though the republic parliament
"An unknown fleet has been detected cruising at low warp heading for the capital of la portée blanche, High council, as the governor of Ikios, i highly recommend we launch the United Republic Grand Fleet" - Phoebe Delti, Head governor of Ikios
Voting initiates
Repeated tones come from the Norther tower
"The house has voted, i read 65 to yea, I read 9 to Neutre, and i read 2 for Nay, Yea has it, so yea it will be" - Hamish Utari, Speaker of the house
40 light years away on the border of La portée blanche , 67 ships screech past, blue plumes of plasma billowing from the engines as the ships ranging in size maneuver around the stars of La portée blanche
