Futuristic Galactic Empires

[Gilzar]

GSE


The GSE does not take kindly to those who invade their allies. A fleet or strange looking ships with large guns on them go beyond the GSE border, and aim the guns precisely at the Master's ship. The guns loaded up EMP Rounds to disable the major battleship's shields. Yet...they were hundreds of miles away. This was basically space age Artillery.


"Ready!" an officer yelled through the ship. "FIRE!"


The guns unloaded, if sound could travel through space then the sounds of these guns would travel over hundreds of miles. These artillery shells traveled extremely fast, some could compare it to light speed as they began to bombard their target.


"Your grace, shall we load up our fleets?"


"Not yet, but continue the Artillery Bombardment. Let it be a constant bombardment as well, I don't want this species to be able to breathe."


"As for our Artillery Fleet, move a battle star next to them to ensure safety."


"Right away your grace. May Shira guide you."


"As with you."


Shala anxiously watched the combat board, giving her live details of the battlefield.

The Admiral sent out a message to all Dominion, GSE, Revenant, and Harasser vessels to seize all shooting for now. The Admiral also sent a message to the GSE to deploy ground units to the surface.


[\UGF/]


Every planet that was populated throughout the UGF activated there planetary defense to prevent any other attacks. The planets that were more valuable had much more heavier defenses.

 

[Gilzar]

GSE


The bombardment seized.


Suddenly, from across the galaxy a fleet of thousands of black plane like ships fly, moving faster than the speed of light they rapidly slow down, entering the atmosphere of the UGF's planet they ordered the ground troops on. There were so many of the ships that they blacked out apart of the sky, and then drop pods began dropping out of it. By the thousands, and they crashed into the ground, and out emerged the GSE's Elite Assault Shock Troops.


The squadrons mainly consisted of Wardens, but there were also Peraki and Gradians in the midst of the ranks as well.


With that they deployed, setting up mobile defences, they would assist the UGF in any way possible.

@Gilzar


All the GSE craft were told to make their way to the massive airbase that had UGF fighters and gunships ready for take off.


The different commanding officers in charge of every UGF division throughout the planet began to give their commands to the revenants and the GSE soldiers.


One of the commanding officers walked up and shook hands with several GSE commanders. "Welcome to Elna. As you can see, all of our cities have been lowered to the underground levels. Can you start to divide your forces so that they are scattered out? Also, get several thousand to also fill in any gaps in the front-lines." The UGF commander said.


There were several UGF tanks driving across to the front-lines where they would form into a defensive formation.


Some armoured vehicles stopped to help the GSE soldiers get to their positions faster.

 

[Gilzar]

(Sorry, I thought I posted but I guess not.)


Reinforcements arrive to fill the gaps, as well as a couple fleets of GSE station themselves at the bases. Though they may be small in numbers, the fleets will still be very effective aid on the battlefields.

@Gilzar


Some of the UGF troops were teaching several GSE soldiers how to use their tanks.


"So you use these controls." The soldier said to the GSE soldier in the drivers seat of the tank holding onto two black control sticks with red buttons.


"You press the red one on the right to fire the EMP. You use the white trigger on the same handle to shoot the main gun. To move the turret, just move the right handle in the direction you want it to turn. If you move the handle forward, you will move the gun up." The soldier said demonstrating the controls. "To move the tank, you have to move the left stick in the direction you want it to go. To activate the machine gun you use the red button on the left stick locate on the left stick. Right where your thumb is."


The soldier began to talk about the lights and controls and the speedometers in the front.

 

[Gilzar]

GSE


The GSE soldiers learned quickly, though many of them asked if there was going to be a land invasion or not.

@Gilzar


The infantry and marines told the GSE that VIKI had discovered drop pods on the enemy ship and that if battle does start, they think the enemy will use them to send troops down to the surface.

 

[Gilzar]

GSE


The GSE troops agreed. But many of them said they would be much more effective on the foot, but a few of them would definetely need to be in vehicles.

 

[MuchPsykers]

[\Elna/]


@Gilzar


@Lord Anubis


The UGF soldiers told them that vehicles give much more suppressive firepower. They told the GSE that thier vehicles will survive 10 direct hits. The troops also told the GSE that their tanks can take 4 times more hits. They yhen showed th GSE soldiers how to activate the energy shield and how to drive the tanks and vehicles.


In the airbase, the UGF pilots taughy several revenants and GSE pilots how to operate UGF fighter jets, vtols and helicopters.


Some marines were teaching several GSE and revenants how to operate the machine guns, chainguns, and atgm and ap and he units.

 

[Gilzar]

GSE


GSE units followed but...had machine guns and suppressive heavy weapons of their own.

@Gilzar


The UGf marines were cheering as the 4 elites had arrived. Theu all wore different armour and all carried a different weapon. They looked younger thsn the soldiers as they began to round up several marines GSE and Revenants.


As this was happening, several monks were walking around saying prayers to religious soldiers before the battle.

@Lord Anubis


Several GSE and Revenant commanders were escorted underground to the military base. There, UGF generals were putting together a plan of action in preparations for the ground assault. The UGF generals bowed slightly in respect as they explained to the GSE and revenant hive minds about their current plans.


The generals explained that the GSE and Revenants will still be able to command their own units but, the UGF is planning on launching a global ambush against the enemy when they do land. They will have a decoy system that will lure the enemy to the certain areas where GSE, Revenants and UGF armies will cut them off. Once finished, the UGF generals looked at the GSE and revenant commanders asking if they would like to add anything to it.

 

[Gilzar]

GSE


"Nothing we have to add really." The GSE commanders said. "This is not really our battle, but yours."

 

[MuchPsykers]

[\Elna/]


@Gilzar


@Lord Anubis


The Generals all nodded. "Then it is settled. One more thing. The UGF commanders will be giving the initial call. Until the commanders give the signal to engage, do not fire. Because that will give our positions away."


[\Elna ridge./]


One elite was surveying the land with his smart scope. He turned around to the group of GSE, Revenant and UGF soldiers all preparing defenses.


He pointed at one revenant, one UGF, and one GSE company commander and motioned his hand for them to gather around.


He took out his 3D smart hologram map and a paper map with a pencil. He then crouched down and pointed at the set of tall hills in the distance. T


"Take note of this. The most likely place the enemy will come is over those hills. The reason being is because there is a passageway here but, we have set up bombs and toppled several pillars and it is now blocked. The other side is a vast forest. When they do come across here, they will cut right through here." The Elite said using the hologram map and the paper map to show the company commanders.


"When that happens, they will be in between us and our friends on the other side. We have to make sure that they do not cross this river. If they do, we go to plan B. We detonate the river to cut them of completely. When I give the signal, the selected troops will tag along side me and we will engage the enemy in close quarters. Do not engage until I give the orders to do so. Understand?"


 
[\Elna./]


The UGF ordered thomas to deploy his ground troops and also assemble his vessels so that some are in the front and others are in the rear.


[\600th armoured fleet./]


The UGF soldiers began seek and destroy missions as they began to search out the surviving terrorists.


 
[\UGF/]


As the riots began to escalate, every tv screen, phone, hologram, radio, gps and any other screen devices showed the UGF coat of arms.


It changed to a live stream of the president standing behind a podium. Lights were seen flickering as photos were being taken.


The main news channel of every nation had stopped their program and hand begun to show the live stream of the UGF president.


"Good afternoon my fellow Centrions and AIs. It has come to our government's attention that a certain hacking has shown videos and a so called recording of the dominion being responsible for assassinating our vice-president, and being responsible for the deaths of the 203 passengers. Before You start making judgement, I would like for you to do a favour. Please do not pick sides until you have heard our government's justification. We understand that these videos and recordings are compelling enough for you, our fellow citizens to believe that the dominion was responsible. But but making that judgment, you are violating our own nation's principles. Innocent until proven guilty. You have not heard our side of the story and you have already made up your minds. I, the president of the UGF am here today to prove that dominion is innocent, and that someone else is behind all this. And is using dominion as their trigger object."


There was talking between the citizens.


"I would like to present our first piece of evidence."


Everybody stopped what they were doing as the first evidence was being shown. The video started to play showing several wormholes opened up around the passenger ship, Sigmaterian Warships racing out of them. The majority of the Sigmaterian fleet looked to be a distance away trying to block any aid from getting through.


The six warships that did surround the plane had their main energy weapon powered up, as it showed two of the ships immediately take out the passenger plane's engines.


The footage from the plane then cut off. It then re-directed to the president standing in front of the podium. "As you can see. Sigmatron shot our passenger jet's engines. No warning. No remorse. No emotions. I understand that you. Our fellow citizens have begun to question our honesty as your government. And I do feel that we are to blame for never sharing information to you. And I deeply apologise for our wrong doing. Because of this, we the government of the United Galactic Federation shall de-classify and share with you our fellow citizens. The real flight recording." The video cut as it showed a sound wave as the real flight data recorder was being played.


"Mayday, Mayday, this is Captain Amders of the galactic space line. Sigmatron vessels have fired on our ships. I repeat, sigmatron vessels have fired at our ship disabling our engines. There are 203 passengers including crew members. There are 90 children, 13 of them still under the age of 2. Please send military aid. I will repeat again, please send military aid."


It then played a casual conversation of captain Amders and showed that the voice recognition matched 100%


It then showed the revenants sending fighters to protect the passenger shuttle as the dominion ship powered down it's weapons and transported the plane into the dominion ship.


The footage then showed he dominon ship being destroyed by sigmatron. It then showed the passenger list confirming the numbers and stats.


"But our most key evidence to prove that the dominion was innocent was their confession." The president said.


The recording of the dominion's apology began to play.


"Redemption is irrelevant, we tried to save your passengers and failed. The mere act considering we had no debts or past relations with your empire is an act of kindness."


"When the UGF contacted the dominion regarding the assassination, they willingly, without question gave all data that they could to prove their innocence to us. After hours of tireless de-coding, we can now confirm that someone has captured and messed with the dominion drones."


"We understand that you might still have doubts in the government. But rest assure, we have kept this away from the public for a good reason. Over the past half an hour, I have presented to you, my fellow citizens, countless evidence proving that dominion was not responsible for the assassination of our vice president, the death of 203 beloved lives, and the breach in our industrialized factory. I shall leave you on a final note. Who will you rather believe, a person who is out to deceive you with only one tampered recording. Or will you put your trust in your government. Who has just revealed to you, numerous top secret information with compelling evidence?"


"Whoever this is, they wanted us to go to war for no reason. To sacrifice trillions of Ruvas and billions of young centrion lives. But that will never happen. We the centrion race will never go to war unless there is a good reason why. I might not trust or know a lot about dominion. But I know enough to know that they only desire knowledge. And that provides a small amount of trust knowing that they will not attack. They never even had any justification or reason. I ask that you all stop these pointless acts of violence. By rioting and protesting even more, you are giving the enemy more fuel to attack us. So please. End all this rubbish violence and let us all enjoy peace once again.

 

[SirFlabberghaspy]

The Master gazed at the situation, and decided to do something. He strode through his ship, and got unto his personal carrier, about the size of a normal race's dreadnought. A white light flashed from the ship, signifying that it was unarmed. No guns or turrets were spotted on the ship.


He'd like to meet his imminent enemy.


A sudden orb of oxygen engulfed the nearby region of space, and sound carried through it, coming from the ship. "If you're not cowards, you will let us board, and speak.", the Master would call out to the surrounding forces. "Your choice of ship for me to dock on."


It was good to be close to your friends, and closer to your enemies, which were the same thing in Dra'kuhnic culture.

The Admiral looked at the communications video of Thomas, the GSE admiral, Tarus, and a voice communications relay to the dominion flagship.


"This could be a trap. How should we go about this?" The Admiral said.


He pressed a button sending a message to the master telling him to wait as they sort out a ship.


Meanwhile, on the surface, the entire UGF military was watching the president's accusations but at the same time, they were finishing up powering all planetary defenses and artilleries, EMP artillery, Tesla artillery, and all weapons were fully stocked. Several soldiers began to put face paint on their faces offering it to the GSE.

 

[WanderingWayfarer]

~UGF~


The overall consensus of the Dominion AIs was that this hostile race had shown a brutal willingness to take innocent lives for the sole purpose of ego-building and that diplomacy was unlikely to resolve itself peacefully in the long term. However the show of force from the allied fleets might deter these raiders for the time being. These opinions were relayed to the UGF admiral almost instantly after he asked the question.


~Dominion~


The UGF presidents broadcast was picked up by a Sanctum and relayed across the Dominion. Their apparent willingness to cooperate peacefully was noted.


Meanwhile the Oracle sites surrounding the Sigmaterians and Gradians were almost complete with a more severe delay put on the UGF sites due to the current events ongoing in their territory.

 

[Mist Demon]

If it hadn't been proved yet time and time again, it was clear that the Sigmaterian Empire was able to see concealed Dominion technology. That alongside the fact that there was an empire wide alert to be watching out for such things by the Dominion, and that Sigma was constantly expanding, it would only be a matter of time until the Dominion's Oracle site would be found.


Whatever the Sigmaterian Emperor had planned was still ready at a moments notice, the only thing to wait for would be the right conditions.

The admiral nodded at what the dominion had sent and had forwarded the information to Tarus, the GSE admiral, and Thomas.


"If they do enslave or kill innocent civilians, this race will pay with their entire population. Well it's good because now we can test out our new super weapon."


"I feel that the dominion is right about one thing. This dragon is going to start war no matter what. Even if we try and agree on peace, there is no telling what he will do. I think it's best if we engage him. But I will try the talks. What are all your stances on this?" The Admiral asked looking at every video monitor.


[\UGF/]


After long hours of standing around. Several protesters began to clear the streets. Some began to clean the roads.


"You know what? I think the president has a point." One civilian said to his AI friend. "That unknown video did show compelling evidence. But our government decided to show top secret information just to prove that this dominion was not the culprit."


On another planet, protesters began to clear the streets, cleaning up the mess that they have made as soldiers and police also began to help with the clean up.


Several hours after the president's message, every galaxy under UGF control, one by one began to stop it's protests and riots as the population began to think of what the president said. While others had made their decision on believing the president's words.


Soldiers released the arrested protesters and were towing away burnt cars, trucks and buses blocking the streets.

 

[WanderingWayfarer]

~Dominion~


The first Oracle sites were finished, still ahead of each empires predicted expansion rates for several months. Additionally each site was now reinforced with large garrisons of ships and star bases. The Dominion was nothing if not efficient at constructing things on the go. As soon as the rest of the sites were finished the array would go online and be put into immediate use.


The UGFs civilian populations unshakable faith in their countries leadership is noted by the Dominion.

 

[Lord Anubis]

The revanent hive minds agreed with the dominion as everything else was completed the troops simply waiting for orders.


The revanents agreed with them that conflict would be inevitable with this species if they were as warlike as they appeared.

 

[RedEyedIlluminati]

Thomas is back and Aldaar at the G.C Headquarters. "My empire is ready to risk their lives for the freedom of any. We have tricks of our own, as well. Don't you worry." Thomas says and then his image is replaced by a tan man with a shaved head. "Hello, sir. I am Commander Copper. Next to me is Admiral Lapis and we will be accompanying you on this endeavour. Minister Thomas has told us to follow your orders. We are at your command."


Meanwhile in the hangars, dropships are being prepared as well as bombers and mechs.

@TheOnionofShrek


Deltron rapidly scanned the trade section of the Dominion without fail, to see if any information about that could be streamed back to the Emperor. Hopefully, by the end of this session, he would acquire a decent amount of information. He deduced that once the process was over, Jason would most likely want to set up contact with the faction.


[/bianca\]


The upgrade was easy enough to acquire from the ITD. The device was small, and simple to attach to the wrist area of armor, but highly effective. It would allow her to see targets on a holographic screen, in order to track cloaked targets, and so she could be aware of invisible soldiers closing in on her. Besides that, it was simple useful if you wanted to know of people in the vicinity.


As she made her way back to her ship, she picked up two people inside of here ship. She froze in place, looking alarmed. Had the UGF caught up with her somehow? Had that man poking around in her mind somehow managed to track her? No... it was impossible, how could they have followed her here? In any case, Bianca wanted to be prepared.


Her eyes were narrowed suspiciously, and she pulled out a pulse pistol, just in case. As she entered the ship, she heard a short scuffling of noise. "Bianca, it's b-- HEY, WAIT A MOMENT! We're not hostile, put down your weapon!" said the cocky voice of Jonthen. His yellow eyes bulged at the sight of the weapon, and he backed up a few feet.


"Jonthen? How'd did you...." Bianca began, disbelievingly, quickly lowering the weapon.


"I believe I've told you before, I do excel at tracking..." said another voice from several feet behind Jonthen. Quintus stood from his crouching position, a slightly furtive grin coming onto his face. Bianca's confused expression almost immediately became one of apparent jubilation. Jonthen quickly moved out of the way as she moved towards Quintus. Before he knew it, his vision had been obscured by a mane of sweet-scented dark hair as she embraced him. For a moment, her lips pressed gently against his.


"I've been wondering when you'd finally drop in," She hissed, in a would-have-been-indignant-voice, wrapping her arms around his neck


Quintus smirked. "I've been kept busy, in a manner of of speaking..."


"Yes, because plotting things in one of your sectors is oh so very time consuming."


Jonthen scoffed, a slightly contemptuous look on his face. "Never you mind, Lord Quintus has many thing to d--" Jonthen was sent backwards as though some invisible force as lifted him up and flung him away. Bianca snickered.


"I can see haven't changed much, Jonthen," She said, slightly mockingly.


The little goblin-like servant got back to his feet, remaining quiet.


"I wanted to see how you were doing... and because I'm a tad bit concerned," Quintus said, as she removed her arms from around him.


"Concerned? That's nice to here..." She said, pleasantly.


"Yes, most certainly. If I'm not mistaken, you recently killed... a vice president, correct? Let's just say, things have escalated a tad bit, and you are unfortunately at risk," He continued.


Bianca raised an eyebrow. "Jonthen, would you mind taking us to into Avenir, into the city? I enjoy vising there during breaks from contracts... You can explain on the way, Quintus," Bianca purred. Albeit hesitantly, Jonthen prepared the ship for a couurse to Avenir.

"Tell your ships to drop all surface troops to the planet." The admiral said to thomas as he sent the areas of the planet that had FOBs and defenses.


[\UGF/]


Most centrions have come to the conclusion that the dominion were innocent while the remaining were still deciding.


~Bianca~


Indeed Bianca was at risk. After the assassination, the knife and the shrapnel were brought in for forensic analysis. The team was able to find the place where it originated from. But the lack of fingerprints gave a very hard time to know who it was.


The military soon used the data to find a solar system that was believed to be where the knife came from. A team of 6 valkyries, 3 valkyrias and 4 elites. The best of the best elite divisions were deployed.

"Well, from what I'm observing I say that they have no intentions for peace. I think that you should show that you won't back down from a fight, they could see the...communication plan simply as weakness." The commanders said. Though many of them showed great disgust when hearing the citizens of the empire either talk against the governments decisions or accusing them of lying.
