i hope this is good enough to be put up here

=The events leading to the evacuation of Alpha Centauri= 





 Year 3578 OTT, 6th year of 4th Y'All invasion

The Y’All had return in the year 3572.The Galactic Council headed by the Kermac had lernt of the 4th Y'All invasion, and had ordered the GC not to send a single unit to help and they were sure the Y’All invasion would not affect any of their members, on the union side the same cold not be said.True to the Kermac prediction the Y’All actually changed their invasion course so it would lead straight across the new created United Stars of the galaxy.

For the last 4 years   The Union was fighting the Y’All with every ship man and resource, but having only an unorganised homogeny of ships from various of founder species had lead to suplie problems and an inconsistent strategy, along with overwhelming enemy numbers the union had only managed some marginal successes. The Y’All were unstoppable and although the current strategy of evacuation of outlying worlds was deemed a success by the assembly, it seemed only as a matter of time that the Y’All would reach Ulta, Earth and other major worlds.



Currently the Admiral of the fleet, Admiral McElliot was at Fleet HQ   on Alpha Centauri reading reports on sector evacuations and fleet readiness.

"They found the Y’All flight plan aboard one of their damaged ships". The admiral was interrupted by Admiral Bury,   one of the allied fleet commander from SPQR. "We have conformation Alpha Centauri is definitely their next target".

" Heidni'baw shitebags the lot of them" retorted the Admiral of the fleet "I thought they would at least destroy the evacuated surrounding colonies and give us a month to regroup and further evacuate" "why didn't we know sooner"

"The local fleet Admiral didnt want to inform us of the Y’All flight path until they had more conclusive data, they weren't convinced by reliability of the civilian ship scanner recordings of the armada escape vector "

"So we have ten, eleven less days less warning than we might of had".

"But aren't we are fortunate that we were warned at all" Admiral burry responded, McElliot believed that the Admiral has shown himself one of the more capable commanders from SPQR and had seemed to have earned His position not just bought or inherited it this made McElliot respect and listen to the man. "They could be here in less than a fortnight"

"The Saran relief fleet under command of their queen is 15 days away, sir"

"Yes, unfortunatly we will need time to evacuate the population, and that won't happen overnight"

"There is always the Ult fleet on bone yard 7, sir could we use that for evacuations?"

<p class="MsoNormal">"No admiral the Y’All could easaly overtake them and would be easy pickings"

<p class="MsoNormal">"What can we do then sir"

<p class="MsoNormal">"Well I have been thinking of using that same fleet as a delay tactic, use the current crews and ships for evacuation, and somehow remote control that ghost fleet to buy us some time"

<p class="MsoNormal">"Genius sir"

<p class="MsoNormal">--

<p class="MsoNormal">McElliot glanced up at the newly terraformed blue sky of the city as he headed back to the shuttle that would take him aboard the union flag ship the USS Yaric at the planet surface from his view port, he took note of the lovely summers day, the sent of new mown grass and the cherry blossom on the trees, the very fragrant old trees first planted when the first bio dome was created on the planet, the fresh green of the forests in the near distance and the hum of distant fliers. To the shuttle pilot he said   "It seems unreal that in a little under a fortnight 750 thousand Y'All battle ships could be raining nuclear fire down on this thriving union colony"

<p class="MsoNormal"> "Sir I was on the USS Butterfly been evacuated from Aurile planet at the start of the war when I saw the live feed of Aurile sapphire sky been stained red by the nuclear bombardment of the   Y'All, the grass was no longer green but charred black and there was thousands of casualties" responded the ensign at the controls of the shuttle

<p class="MsoNormal"> "I know it's going to happen here as well son, we are working on a evacuation plan of the planet as we speak, we will hopefully all live long enough to see it rebuilt "

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNormal">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">The Y’All armada was approaching  Alpha Centauri, and the active fleets of the union need breathing time to re arm, repair and evacuate the solar system, therefore in a last ditch effort the damaged remains of RAMA bot 5   had been placed in charge of a ghost fleet from bone yard 7. It's task to give the main union fleet time.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">   The ghost fleet was a seriously outdated and impractical grouping of tech level 4 remnant ships secured form a Ult army surplus supply yard and armed with irregular surplus supplies that could not be reliably fitted or utalised by the union fleet. The most up to date ship in the fleet was the USS Wrasse, it had not had any crew or maintenance for 450 years, but was the best union had spare for command purposes and that is where RAMA5 found himself reactivated.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">RAMA (bot) 5 was one of the original 51 original machines personally hand built by Dr. Isah, the remnants been the 7 meter tall   machine computing and logic core was the pinnacle of Terran technology and incorporated design and system secrets Dr. Isah revealed to no one.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"> RAMA5 had a highly advanced Seeniean Bio-Computronic brain and was highly intelligent, programmed with every shred of information Isah could find about war, fighting and combat. From Chess to every martial arts, from sword fighting artillery training, dog fighting to all out war and strategy. This in mind Admiral Mc Elliot had commanded the robot to utilize the 286 ships of the ghost fleet in a last ditch effort to "Slow the armada and to go down fighting".

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"> So RAMA 5 had planned a ambush at a large uninhabited asteroid belt, planning to lure the Y'All fleet into the trap. RAMA5 had used a Saresii device that created a falsified large life sign feature indicative of a large colony.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"> The plan had a large probability of leveling the greater fire power, maneuverability and shielding of the Y'All in relatively compact asteroid field. although slow and poorly armed the smaller ships of the ghost fleet could maneuver better and ambush the Y'All. Unfortunately the estimated 750 thousand Y'All ships were unlikely to be dented by the engagement.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"> The Y'All fleet thankfully took the bait and arrived 14 days after the massacre at Xabia planet and the loss of its 3 million residents. The Y'All armada   came through down jump 20 light hours from the asteroid field. The 4 forward scout ships placed in active scanning range reported that the improvised mine field had damaged 50 Y'All ships and had made the Y'All fleet slow.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"> Then as he, RAMA5 had expected the signals from the 4 scout ships was snuffed out by Y'All FTL canons that equaled the firepower of stars. (Though made illegal by united earth Dr Isah was a eccentric inventor and though secret had made all 51 first generation RAMA bots sentient, to curb there likelihood of repeating   events of 22?? where   the earth planet wide AI________ had taken over and declared itself emperor of Terra, Dr Isah had instilled them with servitude self preservation sub routines in hopes that the war machines would stay faithful to terra and the union. )   Also as expected a wave of 1000 Y'All potato shapes ships peeled of from the main body of the fleet to investigate the source of life signs. He thought that the Y'All were nothing but predictable.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"> With the majority of the Y'All fleet sat watching   30 Y'All ships closed on the asteroid field, RAMA5 moved the fastest Ult ship with the life sign emitter further from the Y'Alls point of entry and began badgering the Y'All ships, the disorganized   mass of poptato shaped ships and were far easier to pick on. With ambushes using squads of 10 to 12 of the ghost ships settled on larger asteroids in a low power state it took very little doing to power the squads up, damage or destroy the Y'All ship then dissaperer then set up the ambush again. In this way, over 2 days of cat and mouse gurilla combat he had destroyed or disabled 24 of the Y'All ships with a loss of only 33 of his units.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"> This obviously had infuriated the Y'All commanders who in turn had orders 300 more ships to enter the asteroid field and destroy the "pesky unpure charlatans". in the following 19 hours RAMA5 had not done so well against a larger adversary with a loss of another 184 of his ships and only 142 Y'All ships damaged.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"> Just as he was progressing to move the "ark" into a new patch of asteroid belt the Y'All changed tactics and withdrew their remaining fleet. The Y'All they did something he did not expect, the full armada opened fire on the patchwork of asteroids that his fleet and the ark was hidden in.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing"> the last thing RAMA 5 remembered during the attack before shutting down from power failure, was putting his maintaince   bots into a low power work mode with the instructions to repair and rebuild and improve his body to the new specifications. leaving   instruction to restart him when a union vassal came to search for any remnants from the battle.

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">

<p class="MsoNoSpacing">Back on Alpha Centauri the immortal admiral was in the vanguard of the evacuation fleet, with a successful evacuation of 2.3 million beings, somehow the gods had shone down on them and allowed the Saran fleet to evacuate the planet populace.
