    So at around 10:00 you can clearly see in the top left my Darts had entered Onyx Watch territory and that was why they ended up declaring war on us, thankfully they were the next group we were going to attack anyway so no real harm done! Being dyslexic and normally not even trying to bother to read the messages that pop up there quickly all the time (E.g. engine messages from craft and so on) I just completely didn't notice. I had also sent the Darts over there when the tile was still under Deep Water Guard control, but the onyx watch had grabbed It just as the Darts got there, hence why the Iron Cordon was just chilling in that tile to kill them as soon as war was declared & why I wasn't really looking out for messages like that since I thought I was taking a DWG tile!

      I think you should use emp, but under the condition that it is combined with either high explosive or flak rounds, in a one to one ratio. I have used this before when playing, it’s a really good handicap.

      As to why your bombs did well vs the LAMS, It may be due ot the fact they have no thrust. The lasers were aiming slightly ahead of its fin angled flight path facing, but gravity constantly had them slip down, so didnt that make the lasers constantly hit high and occassionally miss their targets?
      .
      Used slow motion and that appears to be the case. Early on before they picked up downwards inertia they hit fairly consistantly, but as time passed more and more shots ended up firing high.

      I propose turing Iron Cordon into a mortar ship because it fit well with the slow and heavy theme of both Onyx wath and Nurgle. A for EMP you should use it only on a selected few dedicated craft, and leave Prototype with it because EMP is so in theme with Tzeench

    • @TheArklyte

      Just send YOUR Iron Cordon against theirs and have prototype as support. By the times EMPs hit, you'd still have 1.5 intact Iron Cordon combined between the two:D

    Recently-promoted Vice Admiral Wright looked over his holotable, reading the status reports from his own ship and the 157 ship strong fleet he had been recently thrown in command of. His own ship was able to be mostly repaired, however.
    Not only had forty-three ships been destroyed - the former flagship included - by the Lathryxian fleet, damn near every single one of his remaining vessels had taken some form of damage. In some cases, the ships were nearly crippled.
    And to add to all that.. they had only cut the Legion’s size down by barely a fifth. Of their original eighty ships, sixty four still remained. By the raw numbers, it seemed that the Resistance fleet would be coming out on top of any further fleet action, even if only barely. However, Wright knew better. He was still facing the majority of the enemy heavy vessels.
    Despite all these odds, Wright knew that enemy reinforcements would arrive far before friendly ones would. The implications of this were obvious - he had to take out that enemy fleet, and fast. Maybe he’d have a fighting chance.
    “Katherine, hail the destroyer leading frigate group two. I need volunteers for a.. particularly dangerous mission.”
    “Aye sir, opening a channel now.”
    After barely a few moments, the supercomputer established and encrypted a comms signal.
    The captain of the destroyer Heracles popped up on the forward viewscreen of the Iron’s bridge. The ship’s captain, one Captain Edwards, was ready to address the Rear Admiral.
    The man, in his early 30s, snapped a perfect and crisp salute.
    “Sir! What would you have us do?”
    Wright returned the salute.
    “How many nukes are you and your squadron carrying, Captain?”
    “Admiral, sir, the Heracles has two high-yield nuclear weapons on board. Each remaining frigate in the squadron is carrying another. That makes five nukes.
    “Good. I trust you remember your briefing about your battlegroup’s new experimental capabilities?”
    “Aye sir, I do.”
    “Excellent, Captain. I want you and yours to lay all nuclear weapons available at the positions marked on your and my holotables.”
    He took a moment to look over the indicated areas.
    “Sir, these are in the middle of the debris field - far out of range of the enemy vessels if we detonate the weapons.”
    “I am aware of that, Captain. I intend to use them as mines.”
    “Understood, Admiral. We’re ready to move.”
    “Move immediately, Captain. I’m going to need those nukes set within two hours. Make it happen.”
    “Aye, sir. Moving now.”
    The feed cut, and the Rear Admiral got to planning the next phase of this new operation.
    “Katherine, order the repair and refit station to move between us and the enemy fleet. I also want the carriers ready to charge the enemy and jump away.”
    “Aye aye, hailing Athena and Daedalus now.”
    The only two ships in the fleet that hadn’t taken damage, the 2,000 meter long heavy carriers, flared their engines and shot towards the enemy fleet. Once they were halfway to the target, they launched their strikecraft - four hundred craft in total.
    Meanwhile, the sensor-invisible frigates and destroyers equipped with stealth and nukes deposited them in the middle of the debris field. Hopefully, the enemy wouldn’t notice their radiation readings and fire on them..
    The carriers, their strikecraft in front of them, flew directly at the Lathryxian fleet at damn near stupendous speeds.
    The carriers fired their full railgun arsenal at the Lathryxians, with little effect, and immediately warped out to the other side of the debris field. Their strikecraft fired every single missile they had - over a thousand contacts - and managed to drop another 1000-meter vessel. Then, they turned tail and ran through the field.
    The Lathryxian vessels took the bait, descending on the two carriers like a swarm of angry sharks. They plowed through the debris field, taking down strike craft left and right with their lasers. By the time they hit the nukes, only two hundred of the bombers and fighters remained. As they closed on the escaping fighters, they tightened their formation significantly.
    But hit the nukes they did.
    A firestorm of radiation and nuclear heat enveloped the demon’s ships. As it cleared, a scene of pure carnage emerged from the six miniature suns that now dominated every viewscreen.
    No less than seventeen smaller enemy vessels were now floating space debris, and the shields flickered out on another twenty. Two ships were disabled by EMP, and nearly every Chaos vessel had its’ sensors disabled. Taking advantage of their enemy’s new blindness, the squadron of stealth warships disabled their sensor baffles and cloak, only to concentrate firepower on one of the 2km long enemy vessels. Said ship soon fell out of formation belching flame, and the stealth ships jumped out.
    Not willing to give the demons a break, Wright turned to Katherine’s mainframe and his communications officer.
    “I want every vessel we have to jump point-blank to the alien vessels. We can’t afford to give them a break, or fight them at range.”
    “Aye sir, sending orders now.”
    The lieutenant had a slight tinge of fear in his voice, but pushed it aside through grim determination and sheer training. This scene was replayed many times across the fleet, as the Resistance vessels jumped within visual range of the enemy warships.
    “Fire full alpha strike, then order all vessels to fire at will. Target shieldless opponents.” Wright growled, looking out at the red dot that was a demonic Battlecruiser - barely two-hundred kilometers distant.
    The moment the final resistance ship jumped in, a wave of white-hot railgun slugs flew out of the barrels of the spinal and turreted railguns of the Resistance fleet. Nearly two-hundred 500mm slugs moving at 100 km/s tore towards the demonic fleet, followed by the blue lances of particle cannons and the streaks of missiles. At this range, even some of the CIWS mounts spoke - throwing thousands and thousands of slugs towards the terrifyingly powerful warships staring them down. The turreted anti-ship railguns flared, firing 100mm solid slugs at 100 km/s.
    No less than twenty demonic vessels were immediately obliterated, with the sheer volume of fire at such a close range downing the shields on several of the remaining twenty. Even the majority of the missiles managed to make it through, the point-blank range allowing it.
    Wright didn’t have the time to fully appreciate the full effects of his salvo, however. The demons, having recovered from the nuclear hellfire they had found themselves in not long ago, returned fire with equal ferocity. Lasers, blood-red particle cannons, and railguns lanced out from the hellish vessels. Their initial salvo alone had already destroyed or disabled forty more Resistance vessels - ten of them the more durable Cruisers and Battlecruisers.
    The Resistance fleet fired again. Another wave of railgun slugs perforated ten more vessels. This time, however, every ship with nukes in the fleet sent them flying, covering them with a conventional screen to distract the enemy point defenses. While half of the nukes were shot down, due to the close range the other half managed to make it through. And when they did.. the ten remaining Lathryxian ships simply broke apart.
    Nonetheless, the remaining Legion vessels fired one more time before their decimation. Nearly every single cruiser and battlecruiser was torn to shreds this time, rather than the lighter warships that had previously been eviscerated. Only one battlecruiser, the Iron, and two cruisers remained. One of the two carriers also broke apart.
    Despite their efforts, the Lathryxian Legion was even worse off. What was left of the once-mighty armada was turned into space dust by several miniature suns.
    Crews all across the fleet cheered, while officers allowed themselves small smiles. A few minutes passed before Ensign King, manning the starboard sensor station, spoke up.
    “I think you should see something for yourself, sir. I’ve never seen anything like it before.”
    The Vice Admiral walked over to King’s station, looking at the console. It was indeed something very.. new. There was almost certainly something coming in via warp, but instead of there being the typical group of contacts there were only two distinct.. blobs.
    Wright looked at the screen, and decided to play things safe.
    “Lieutenant Awtry! Sound general quarters. Warp the fleet to the original battle line location. Give me an ETA as soon as you’re able.”
    “Aye sir. Warp drives recharged in one minute, most of the fleet already has theirs ready.”
    Wright nodded, walking to his original station. Not three seconds after he collapsed into the captain’s chair, trying to relax, flashes of light appeared on the live camera feeds surrounding the Iron’s enclosed bridge. No less than two hundred and fifty Lathrixian warships had arrived, and they were incredibly close.
    Not a moment too soon, the Iron’s drive finished charging. The fleet, already having been set to jump, did so.
    The ships had been lucky to jump when they did. A Lathrixian fleet almost three times as large as the original had just arrived, and the Resistance had all of eighty-eight ships left - nearly all escorts.
    What many of them forgot about, however, was the fact that there had been two incoming blobs on sensors. Wright knew, but simply prayed it wasn’t bound to be their doom.
    An ensign at the port sensor station suddenly spun around, a look of shock on her face.
    “Sir! Over a hundred and fifty more warp signatures! Jesus Christ, they’re right on top of us!”
    Wright’s breath caught in his throat. No Council warp drive could hope to cover such a distance so fast.
    “More Legion?”

    I personally enjoy watching EMP weapons explode on target, it just has a charm that regular explosions don't have. I think EMP would be the equivalent of the "underdog" weapon, leaving stronger opponents undamaged but breaking their brains so that they can be retrofitted later. EMP should be a fitting weapon in this series, and I would love to see EMP stay in the campaign. Also, the retrofit episodes are so enjoyable :)

    Heyo Lathrix! You asked for input on EMP so heres my input!
    I think that you should allow EMP to be one of the main damage types but only for specialized crafts meant to capture eneimes, since you wanted to sort of have every craft fill a role in your fleet I think this would be a cool option having the more "humane" craft focused on capture and conversion and the main fleet focused on death and destruction!

      Emp isn't op, just no one expects the craft that deals nothing but massive EMP damage fron pretty much every possible angle.

    The Simoon is the DWG's light cargo ship (the Walrus is the heavy cargo) so that's why you'll see them hanging around their HQ as they deliver supplies to let the HQ build new units. I think they're also the dedicated repair unit, so if an enemy survives an encounter the AI will send a repair unit to fix them up. As for your praise for the Simoon's use of steam pistons, Karbengo is quite proud of that one.

    Well, that's one way to take down an Iron Cordon. XD
    On that note, the Prototype probably got through the Iron Cordon's LAMS by just overwhelming it, since EMP missiles don't have any more health than HE or frag missiles. But unlike HE missiles at least, they don't damage each other when they explode. Only solid missile bodies add any significant degree of health to missiles.
