Prakith Planning Thread

Those are some formidable ships, maybe I will jump in with my fleet too. Good time to test out the new fleet rules, see what I need to change or whatever. When is a good time to jump in?

Forget the new fleet rules.

Bring your whole fleet as it was on the old site. Chances are by the end of the scenario you may have lost enough ships to fit into the new point system, or if not you can hand the spares over to anybody who needs to make up their losses.

As for showing up, we got a couple more baddies on the way, then the Imperial Fleets ought to show up in full force. That way when the fighting starts we'll have our backs to the planet so our ships can't escape. Caught between a rock and a hard hull, as it were. That should also afford the appropriate time for SOS' from the planet to be sent out and responded to.

With the old fleet? 72

Ok, I'm down with giving the missiles over, where do I go? Aaghra.

When should the IR come to the rescue and slash down the demons with brilliant silver swords?

Well I think we should give them till friday evening to post... I would like to see a lot of alarm and preparation for a counter attack amongst the IR RPers. I mean... Convening the fleets and recalling warships is going to take time. I think there should be at least a few posts amongst imperial worlds and Imperial RPers detailing their response, their preparation and their angery/emotion/etc regarding this.

Now, if we operate under the "Imperial High Command staged this" and all our fleets are already conveniently assembled by the hyperspace lanes because of "training excercises" then that'd be fine too. But some general disbelief amongst the NPCs and PCs that do not know about this would be great to see. I myself have 3 posts on Aaghra that have alluded to, and now finally confirmed Gabe's involvement, knowledge and scheming that has brought his fleet together and prepared to counter attack

Also, I have spoken with Talon in chat and we will be requesting Darth Andeddu's tomb as a temporary RP location

Just going to get a post in Prak city, explaining why I'm there and whts happening, then once the temporary tomb thread is made I can have a picnic there. Anyone form Cake? XD

The cake is a lie...

So thats over 100 okay. There were some inflatable SSD patent things on the other site but I cant find it. We inflate them and put one starfighter in them each and have it jump to Prakith just to see the guys there shit there pants. Of course the things are rubber and wont last but hey everything nneeds comical relief, plus we can load em up with explosives. Use the 181st as it would tie in with something else I am working on.

I was thinking instead of a siege sort of scenario, we could maybe do it in stages. Like a pocket war, it could go something like:

Since Dragus' and Bacca's fleets have already popped up on different sides of the planet, it could be said that that is the OE's strategy for this battle is to come in at different locations so they can attack the planet from different angles. So the fleets that come later will do the same. While the IR is scrambling to assemble its forces, the Order can swoop in and take the lightly defended Prak City while keeping their fleets spread out so they can effectively jam communications and keep anyone from escaping to get word out (even though it inevitably will) about the invasion.

After securing the city, the OE send their people to the Tomb to do the work they are really there to do. There they confront the Imperial Knights and soldiers guarding the tombs.

Back in orbit, knowing we are out gunned, instead of trying to engage each fleet directly we target and outnumber one and eliminate it in order to diminish the enemy numbers before the final confrontation with the rest of the OE fleets.

We could then use the time it takes the other fleets to reach our position to not only destroy one fleet, but also deploy ground forces to liberate Prak City in a short but bloody battle in the city.
