Chapter 14.1
Fallen Empire


quote:

Here is something to think about
Statistically, few jobs are more hazardous than head of state.




Following the disappearance of Basileus Naviwinat at the end of the Battle of New New New Constantinople, what remained of the Empire lay in the hands of General Ordin. The vast holdings offered much protection, but no defense.

As a result, General Ordin immediately set about to build a shield generator.

His enemies continued their hot pursuit, however. Vetko, who had declared himself Emperor, was not happy to see his earlier holdings under what he deemed "imposter rule". To begin his activities, he sent a spy to keep Ordin at home.

The fleets were idle, so the spy sabotaged the shield generator being constructed. The rest was fairly inevitable from there. Vetko's huge fleet, along with that of Polly Siffan, descended on the General's empire.

Ever observant on the wider world of tactics, the General employed the latest tactic in the playbook- immediate retreat. This left the Empire with no planets at all, but at least preserved part of its dwindling fleet.

Chapter 14.2
Last Stand


quote:

Here is something to think about
The difference between emperor and barbarian is real estate.




News of General Ordin's retreat reached a disappointed Zol Ventis. This new leader had none of the guts of the old Emperor, though perhaps at this point, that was wiser.

But it wasn't the end of things, for while Ordin was supposed to hold down the fort, Zol had committed his forces to invasion. The target of choice? The last of the non-Eventinatti, Agath Agathari.

Both Agathari and Ventis were known for gutsy action, and in this case, both had lasers at close range. But Agathari had more.

Agathari probably was expecting something bigger or less daring incoming though, and maneuvered, exposing the fleet to a vicious counterpunch.

Enter the AD-FREE zone

Agathari was furious at the needless loss of half his fleet. The following blast spewed forth years of pent-up anger in over a thousand points of Lazorgeddon.

With that, Zol Ventis became the first Overlord of the war to go out the way real Galactic Overlords do - on the offensive.

Suffering from ads?

This by the way was the quote I got after posting that last one:
quote:

Now's the time to have some big ideas
Now's the time to make some firm decisions
We saw the Buddha in a bar down south
Talking politics and nuclear fission
We see him and he's all washed up --
Moving on into the body of a beetle
Getting ready for a long long crawl
He ain't nothing -- he ain't nothing at all...

Death and Money make their point once more
In the shape of Philosophical assassins
Mark and Danny take the bus uptown
Deadly angels for reality and passion
Have the courage of the here and now
Don't taking nothing from the half-baked buddhas
When you think you got it paid in full
You got nothing -- you got nothing at all...
We're on the road and we're gunning for the Buddha.
We know his name and he mustn't get away.
We're on the road and we're gunning for the Buddha.
It would take one shot -- to blow him away...
-- Shriekback, "Gunning for the Buddah"

Wow, that's been a while... I wonder if Skanky will have bases without a fleet after this round. Must be some kind of record in case that happens.

Zol wasn't the only one driven by desperation to mount a last-ditch attack. Colony I, also in a similar but worse situation, attempted the same. His entire fleet, now weighing in at just 90 lazorpower, charged Kit Chuss's growing empire.

Unfortunately, the shields were down, and the fleet was in.
