Diplomatic Thread

*While the Storm Paladins and the NeoRome discuss about that space hulk thingy, the EES New Megaopolis arrives in the Lyat System with the Surpreme Grandmaster on board*

The ASE Great White is now entering the Lyat system. The Alpha fleet is ready in case of any foul play.

>Decoding.......complete

>Your ships may dock at starbase. The doctor is on board and he is ready for the trial.

>End message.

(Transmission from the I.D.S Dove)
(BEGIN TRANSMISSION)

We are now entering the system, with the I.D.S Valiant in tow.

(END TRANSMISSION)

The Surpreme Grandmaster is tossing the map of the station given to him by the stations personell into a dustbin and instead puts out a map created from his ships´ scanners.
He then walks up into the room where the trial is set to take place and checks on the local security measures.
After he decides that the risk would be too high in case of a serious attack (no gmod, even a tank wouldn´t have satisfied me) he calls for Mecha Sally and Mecha Sonic to enter the space station.

Argentius (Captain of 1st company of the Silver Skulls) >>> Fabricator-General, I strongly encourage you not to continue with this..... we are in xeno space about to be in direct contact with xenos... it is against everything that our Imperium believes...... it is.... Heresy....

Norse (Fabricator-General) >>> It might have been heretical in our own universe Argentius but we do not have the luxury of keeping so strict with our beliefs. We are in a yet unknown universe with barely one system and one fleet of ships... If you think we can fight against all of the xenos in this universe then you are insaine....

Nor can we just stand by and wait for the Imperium to come for us.... look how long Chapter Master Addeptus has been here.... No we must seek out a way back to our universe on our own and if that means taking paths that will be considered heretical in nature so be it.

Now Captain please prepare a Thunderhawk to transport me to the starbase.

Argentius (Captain of 1st company of the Silver Skulls) >>> But Fabricator-General you are not planning on going onto that xeno infested space station alone...

Norse (Fabricator-General) >>> Argentius you should know by now that i am more than capable of handling myself... but if you must insist i will allow you to accompany me so long as you swear on the God Emperor himself that you will cause no trouble.....

Diplomatic ship Thyric Rising is now docking. The two corvettes will remain around the system.

The Ragnarov has docked with the station, weapons powered down but on quick-charge standby in case of emergencies.

First Person

Fenway felt very unsure about the meeting. He didn't like the paper-thin hull, nor the lack of security. And all of the foreigner's ships unnerved him. He was thinking about this when the Ragnarov was docking when time fast-forwarded. One minute he was standing in the command bay, the next the cloning bay. He was unsure on why he was there, but then knew. He removed Clone 3, an exact clone of his being, and uploaded all of his memories, his brain functions, everything, into it. Then he sent it to the docking bay.

As an afterthought, he activated the intercom and spoke, "I want the Alpha Red Fusion Coil fully charged and on standby, safety off. I don't feel right about this. If anything goes wrong, order 66."

He then deactivated it. He was unsure what caused his sudden fear- a tickle in the back of his mind. A voice. And a dark one, at that.

>>Elsewhere<<

Sensor stations orbiting the Eternity of Pain detected a massive power spike, minutes prior to the Ragnarov's docking procedure. They could detect no effects outside the universe, and a section of the ship warped. They attributed it to a power conduct failure, and did not inform NeoRoman high command.

>>Elsewhere<<

Triarch Ash stood on the bridge of the flagship, leading the flotilla. The Space Marine Chapter had completely blocked access to the ship, and that will not do. He turned to his commander.

"Commander, are the fleets ready?"

Karon looked up. "Yes sir. All 8 Bombardment fleets are in position, the First and Second Attrition Fleets are ready, and the Fifth Annihilation Fleet is in standby."

"Excellent. Hail the Space Marine Chapter fleet once more." The commander typed in a command, and the ship's monitor showed a signal checking error. No response.

"No response sir. They haven't sent any messages since your conversation."

"It's no loss." Ash sat down in the command chair and picked up the fleet transmitter. "All fleets fire on my mark. Targets are all ships who attempt to stop us."

A Leiutenant behind him whispered to his neighbor, "This is madness!" Ash whirled around and faced the offending Leiutenant. The Leiutenant's face slowly drained of color.

"Did you say something, Leiutenant?"

The Leiutenant cleared his throat and said, "N-no sir." Ash stared at him, a cold hard stare.

"Throw him out the airlock" The Leiutenant gasped, then attempted to run. Ash knocked him down, and several security guards escorted him to the airlock. The Leiutenant was screaming, begging for mercy. Ash did not budge.

Behind him, the commander knew that Ash had no jurisdiction to throw him out the airlock. In fact, the only case in which he could do so was if the Leiutenant tried to kill him. But he kept his mouth shut. Ash had already thrown 7 members of the ships out the airlock, and he wasn't about to be next.

Ash said, "Open Fire," and the Space Marine Chapter's fleet lit up with green fire and lasers.

>>Elsewhere<<

A computer chimed a small alarm. Ash's flagship was slightly damaged, and communications could be transmitted but not recieved. It was no problem in the short run, since all NeoRoman ships share a sort of Internet, never compromised and always on. Foreign fleet communication, though, was problematic.

As it prepared to inform the master computer, it was suppressed. Another program took over, and it began logging all energy usage. The report was there, but unsent.

OOC: Let me rephrase the electrical system thing. Electrical conducts are not possible because of the ships's physic energies, which scramble them. Nervous system electricity is too small to be affected. It's not a physics thing, it's an energy field thing. The physics are very, very similar in any case.

>>(WARNING IN COMING FIRE WARNING INCOMING FIRE)<<<

Chaplain Apollo:Sir we are being fired upon bye NeoRoman Forces.Plan of action?

Chapter Master Addeptis: How are the void shields holding?And have the rest of the fleet move to engage NeoRoman forces as well.Time to show them the might emperor at its finest!

Chaplain Apollo:Sir only 1 of 4 of our void shields have been bypassed.Two, three and four are still holding. As for the rest of the fleet we have 1 out of commission strike cruiser and severe damage on the 2. The rest of the fleet shields are holding and are as we speak they are returning fire.

Chapter Master Addeptis:Move the Death Before Dishonor close enough to there flagship to lunch boarding craft i wish to end this before any other unnecessary blood shed is spilt...It time to show them why we are called space marines.And i shall personally lead the men to the bridge of there ship and disarm this threat my self.Have the rest of the fleet provide covering fire to us.Leo,Aegidius gather your Company's and follow me to the boarding ships!*runs to armory to pick up weapons before running to the boarding craft*

**Death Before Dishonor moves across the black ness of space only to meet heavy Resistance from NeoRoman forces before finally getting with in range to lunch boarding craft**

**back in boarding craft lunch bay Chapter Master Addeptis Gives a quick speech**(fyi if u didn't no space marine commander are supposed to give a speech before going into combat as well as void shields are very very very strong look them up on the wiki if no one be leaves me)

**Chapter Master Addeptis speech** MEN OF THE EMPEROR HERE ME! For to long we have been away from the emperor guidance! He has sent us a sign by giving us this test of our will and strength to see if we are worthy of coming home to Terra! I have no fear that we shall triumph in this test of our skills! I am competent that we shall return home soon.But first we must prove our worth! Now whos with me! **Very loud chants**FOR THE EMPEROR****Very loud chants**** coming from 200 fully combat ready space marines**


**boarding craft lunched and have impacted the side hull of there flag ship**

**After fighting there way to the bridge's entrance Addeptis and Captain Leo enter the Bridge**
(Just in case you are wondering where Aegidius is hes rallying the troops in side the ship and trying to clear it out as much as possible)

**Addeptis lock eyes with Triarch Ash for about a min before Ash......**

The RTA 2nd Armada is on station at the Lyat system, under the command of Captain Hector.

Extremely suprised, Ash calmly places down the intercom he was holding, and smiles.

"How you got here, I don't know. How you plan to beat us, I can't guess." He walked over to his commander, silent and stiff. "I guess I slightly underestimated the power of the Space Marine Chapter, eh?" He walked over to a console, showing a battle report. A beam impacted the flagship's shields, still up, which the boarding craft bypassed. "But your ships are falling in droves. We may be taking casualties ourselves, but those Void Shields of yours are not holding up well." As if to punctuate his point, a large battleship explodes, scattering twisted metal and wreckage everywhere.

"It is sad for me to have to do this. After all, the Merlin is an impressive ship indeed. But I simply cannot let you escape this ship." With that, he presses a large red button that conveniently popped up next to him.

An alarm springs up. "Warning, Singularity Device 1, 3, and 5 are counting down. Estimated detonation time 2 Minutes. Evacuate ship immediately."

"I understand you must be going. We have mighty places to go, don't we? But I have two last things to say."

He picks up the fleet transmitter. "All ships are to close in on the Eternity of Pain and to secure the main port hanger. Eliminate only direct threats." He dropped the intercom, and then walks toward Addeptis. "The second, is a parting gift."

With that, he unveils a gauss-assault rifle unique in all aspects. 800 rounds of EMP-Pulse charged Antimatter-Tipped Dark Matter rounds, 4 cm diameters, firing at ten-thousand rounds per minute. It cost 400,000 Roms to fire that weapon, for 5 seconds. Powered by a Phazon core providing 1.2 Giga-joules of energy, electrifying the rounds and allowing them to fuse and penetrate armor before detonating. Lightweight, constructed of a mix of Titanium alloy, Dark Matter and Stabilised Tiberium, it is the only one in existance. It cost over 400,000,000,000,000 Roms for the weapon to be built by a private contracter, and that contractor gets an unlimited supply of energy from NeoRome.

Ash opens fire.

Orange construction drones going about their business on A2X-347 were just destroyed by a stray fragment of [REDACTED] that completely annihilated the asteroid. So sad.

((Still aboard the Adeptus Mechanicus Cruiser Principia Gravis))

((Fabricator-General Norse and Argentius (Captain of 1st company of the Silver Skulls) are boarding a Thunderhawk))

*Vox chimes*

Ship Astropath >>> Fabricator-General, I just had a very troublesome vision, I believe that there is a great conflict between the Adetptus Astartes Storm Paladins and the xenos that were wishing to enter the Space Hulk.

Argentius (Captain of 1st company of the Silver Skulls) >>> Sir, we must go back and aid our brothers...

Norse (Fabricator-General)>>> No Argentius, we must stay here for these proceedings.

Argentius (Captain of 1st company of the Silver Skulls) >>> But sir.... if we do not help them then they may fall to ruin...

Norse (Fabricator-General)>>> I believe in the capabilities of our allies Argentius, plus I have already prepared for a situation such as this...

((Fabricator-General Norse enters the Thunderhawk.... a few seconds later Argentius follows))

((The Thunderhawk takes off and heads to a docking bay on the Starbase))

Chapter Master Addeptis: Emperor bless him and Norse.Send him a tramission that we are dead in the water and require his repair skill.

Chaplain Apollo: yes sir.

The remainder of the NeoRoman fleet, all 15 battlegroups, every fleet not engaged in other activities, are called in once Ash is killed.

As the ships warp in, they begin to form a literal shield of destroyed ships as it nears the hulk. As one ship falls, the remaining Dreadnaughts fuse it to the shield and push on. Casualties are high, and few enemies destroyed, but they still have their mission: Get a boarding and research party on the space hulk at all costs.

With all but a few science ships and the dreadnaughts destroyed by constant fire, the Dreadnaught's sacrifice themselves. A massive hole is torn on the wreck, but the ship... heals itself, as if it was alive. 2 of the remaining science ships enter the quickly closing hole. The last three weren't so lucky. The first was sliced in half by the repairing hull. The others were stopped and quickly picked off by Space Marine Chapter and Imperium of Man forces.

In the space between dimensions, Chaos roars in triumph.

The ship begins to pulse.

>>Elsewhere<<

For some reason, Fenway blacks out. While out, he sees the space hulk, looming over NeoRome. It consumes it, and Chaos comes through. But before he comprehends, the memories
shuffle
and he sees NeoRoman forces pushing toward the wreck, the entire battle fleet decimated, only 2 science ships made it in. He knows that Ash directly violated orders and has it in his mind to punish him when it
shifts.
He sees the trial, Eggman overly nervous. The Doctor in the center, all the important diplomatic leaders in one spot, everything so vulnerable, so pristine. He understands, but forgets it when the images
blend
and he is now in a grassy field. He sees two kids, one dark and one light. The dark one says, "Give in. Do nothing. You will have everything you want in the Space between Dimensions, everything Chaos can give."

The light one says, "No! Fight him! Chaos has taken universe after universe, and he must be stopped once and for all!"

As it fades, they chant in unison, "Remember, everything is at stake in this."


Fenway comes to. He can't remember what happened, and several high ranking officers are crouched around him. Several doctors as well.

"Are you alright sir?" the head doctor asks. Fenway rubs his head.

"I'm fine, doc." Everyone looked relieved.

"We've already lost Ash, and we can't afford to lose you." At this, Fenway started.

"Ash? Dead? What happened to emergency conscious transfers?" The commander sighed.

"Killed by the Space Marine Chapter leader, Grand Master Addeptis." Fenway could only nod. "Past that, no information."

After more checks, conversation and formalities, they finally left Fenway alone. He couldn't remember anything from those visions, but it was important. Dreadfully important. He thought about Ash too, and his death. Something's not right, but he can't pin it down.

Maybe the trial will clear things up.

OOC: I wish to ask this of empires participating in the trial... Is it ok if I smash the Eternity of pain into the station? The plan is that it will take the doctor and kill all empire leaders in the process. The doctor's capture will allow a time-space rift to be opened, not a Paradox, but one where Chaos actually can come through, even if the portal is closed. The empire leader's deaths will scramble the diplomatic situation, grinding most empires to a halt while Chaos strikes. I'm fine if you don't want your leader(s) killed, but I'm going to proceed with this plan unless there is an overwhelming majority not to.

I encourage you to lose leaders, even yourself, in the attack, though I understand why you wouldn't want to. Just remember, my Leader- and Co-Leader- are dieing in this. Yes, this is a major spoiler, but I want to avoid the, "OMG U GODMODDZ NOZ I BLOW U ALLZ UP WE ALLZ LIV HAPPLY EVA AFTAH"

As the ships warp in, they begin to form a literal shield of destroyed ships as it nears the hulk. As one ship falls, the remaining Dreadnaughts fuse it to the shield and push on. Casualties are high, and few enemies destroyed, but they still have their mission: Get a boarding and research party on the space hulk at all costs.

With all but a few science ships and the dreadnaughts destroyed by constant fire, the Dreadnaught's sacrifice themselves. A massive hole is torn on the wreck, but the ship... heals itself, as if it was alive. 2 of the remaining science ships enter the quickly closing hole. The last three weren't so lucky. The first was sliced in half by the repairing hull. The others were stopped and quickly picked off by Space Marine Chapter and Imperium of Man forces.

In the space between dimensions, Chaos roars in triumph.

The ship begins to pulse.

For some reason, Fenway blacks out. While out, he sees the space hulk, looming over NeoRome. It consumes it, and Chaos comes through. But before he comprehends, the memories
shuffle
and he sees NeoRoman forces pushing toward the wreck, the entire battle fleet decimated, only 2 science ships made it in. He knows that Ash directly violated orders and has it in his mind to punish him when it
shifts.
He sees the trial, Eggman overly nervous. The Doctor in the center, all the important diplomatic leaders in one spot, everything so vulnerable, so pristine. He understands, but forgets it when the images
blend
and he is now in a grassy field. He sees two kids, one dark and one light. The dark one says, "Give in. Do nothing. You will have everything you want in the Space between Dimensions, everything Chaos can give."

The light one says, "No! Fight him! Chaos has taken universe after universe, and he must be stopped once and for all!"

As it fades, they chant in unison, "Remember, everything is at stake in this."


Fenway comes to. He can't remember what happened, and several high ranking officers are crouched around him. Several doctors as well.

"Are you alright sir?" the head doctor asks. Fenway rubs his head.

"I'm fine, doc." Everyone looked relieved.

"We've already lost Ash, and we can't afford to lose you." At this, Fenway started.

"Ash? Dead? What happened to emergency conscious transfers?" The commander sighed.

"Killed by the Space Marine Chapter leader, Grand Master Addeptis." Fenway could only nod. "Past that, no information."

After more checks, conversation and formalities, they finally left Fenway alone. He couldn't remember anything from those visions, but it was important. Dreadfully important. He thought about Ash too, and his death. Something's not right, but he can't pin it down.

Maybe the trial will clear things up.

OOC: I wish to ask this of empires participating in the trial... Is it ok if I smash the Eternity of pain into the station? The plan is that it will take the doctor and kill all empire leaders in the process. The doctor's capture will allow a time-space rift to be opened, not a Paradox, but one where Chaos actually can come through, even if the portal is closed. The empire leader's deaths will scramble the diplomatic situation, grinding most empires to a halt while Chaos strikes. I'm fine if you don't want your leader(s) killed, but I'm going to proceed with this plan unless there is an overwhelming majority not to.

I encourage you to lose leaders, even yourself, in the attack, though I understand why you wouldn't want to. Just remember, my Leader- and Co-Leader- are dieing in this. Yes, this is a major spoiler, but I want to avoid the, "OMG U GODMODDZ NOZ I BLOW U ALLZ UP WE ALLZ LIV HAPPLY EVA AFTAH"

OOC:Dear lord u really do want to kill us all don't u? The tyranids where bad but those creepy devil worshiping mother fuckers come through well... BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD anyone? just jokeing

OOC:Fine but you owe me a star base. And the doctor does not die

As Kintobor is forced to send the battle droids back to the Egg Carrier-class ship that brought him, he decides to let the ship undock after Special Agent Shadow has been sent to him.
Orders were given that he should not take any device with him except for a Chaos Emerald in order to Chaos Control the Surpreme Grandmaster out of danger in case of emergency.

OOC: This actually isn´t a preparation for the upcoming crash of the Eternity of Pain, just a standard-issue EE security protocol needed becaouse one of the major weaknesses of the Ee is its sensitive chain of command

***Incoming transmition from Mobius to Surpreme Grandmaster Ivan Kintobor relayed by the EES New Megaopolis***
Unknown person: Surpreme Grandmaster Ivan Kintobor, we have a problem.
Ivan: What is it now?
person: I think it is a Xorda ship, but I´m not sure.
Ivan: The Xorda? I thought they were left in our own universe when we got warped here.
person: I know, but it looks awfully similar.
Ivan: Send two flotillas against that ship. If that doesn´t work, shoot it with the Eclipse Cannon.

With the attack on the Storm Paladin's fleet by NeoRome, the 3rd Armada is en route to the space hulk to support the Space Marine fleet. Any attacks on RTA ships will be regarded as an act of war, full retaliation against the offending faction will occur.

About 99 percent of my followers are for a assimilation to the eggman empire so i give them all of what we have as a gift
every planet ship and ressources

>Message from Admiral Rekiin of the ASE<
>Begin translation<
>Translation complete<
We have just received a message from our orbital defense platform back in the Caligula system. A large fleet of ships is approaching Aqualympia.
We have or at least did have four fleets: Alpha, the war fleet, Beta, the privateer fleet, Gamma, the discovery fleet and Delta, the planetary defense fleet.

Since the Alpha fleet is with us, the Beta fleet fell apart during the rebellion and the Gamma fleet is on a mission elsewhere that leaves only the Delta fleet and judging by the intelligence we have managed to gather so far, they are not only very out-numbered but also very outgunned.
>End message<

OOC: I would prefer if half the galaxy doesn't start interfering until the fighting spills outside the Caligula system.
