Lost Harbor
Atlantis RP / atlantis-mission
Our joint Free Fleets-Starfleet ambush of the Xovul attack on the Free Fleets shipyard facility has met with initial success as we've managed to destroy one of their dreadnoughts, although the ground attack has been less decisive and one of our allied ships had to retreat. The battle rages on, both in orbit and on the ground, as the Xovul put up a fierce fight despite being heavily outnumbered.

ACTION> Three plasma torpedoes crash into our shields as we dive in, but the damage is done, and our target loses warp drive as a quantum torpedo destroys one of their nacelle equivalents.

:: dodges another Xovul as he jumps the barricade, turns around and shoot him dead ::
CO Capt Harper 07-Jul-2021 22:23:34

Everly: Kyler! Grenade?! :: points to the condensed Xovul forces ::
NAV Lt Navarro 07-Jul-2021 22:28:19
+Jester+ The missile launcher is down, did it get you?

:: forearm starting to hurt pretty bad from slamming into the console ::
NAV Lt Navarro 07-Jul-2021 22:31:22
+Jester+ A couple got through, and my arm is a bit more tan from Rocinante throwing a bit of a tantrum, but I'm fine.
CO Capt Harper 07-Jul-2021 22:31:52
:: presses Atlantis through the incoming fire to set up the shot... ::

+Sharks+ Ah, there is one, on the edge...
CEO LtJG D’bryn 07-Jul-2021 22:35:57
Xovul: :: quietly :: Come on, guys, just surrender already.
