I've been going back through Ares recently. I've forgotten how to do 15 (The Left Hand), but all the others went fine.

Avatara, for 17, build Ish cruisers like your life depends on it, then attack the Aud planet with EVERYTHING you have as soon as the carrier leaves to grab a station. Then build cruisers and a transport.

Well, I'm making preparations for the Phylydia II's date of full recovery, on which it will dock at the bar and Jackal Squadron will do an aerobatics show. Nerec himself, anda few other high-ranking Phylydions, will be here.

The Hatares sector is where the battle took place. It's generally assumed I'm in the Hatares sector, in billions of pieces.

Have some respect for the dead! j/k

That organ wouldn't be mine. I was in an explosion that would have most likely atomized me. If I wasn't blown into atoms, then I was very lucky and I have a whole dead body, but even if the body, erm, survived it would have been caught in the dimensional folds and pulled into the StarLance universe.

Calm down, everybody. We could always have Sargatanus could always find some way to CLONE him, and enlighten him, and then we could un-enlighten him and bring him back. If we have to.

Didn't the Aftermath say that those three Slug Battle Group ships disappeared near the Hatares Sector? Is that something to do with it as well?

It must be me; I come back, the Barbarossa blows up, Slug dies, Axis Minor and Obain are nuked, and...

Hey, when I came back the whole Nijayias Empire had just been crushed, and a good many of its planets nuked. It's coming back in general. Should Cicion go away, poor, poor Phylydions Posted Image

Nothing bad would happen to the Imperium since I don't generally command any ships. The reason the Nijayias Empire fell was because you left along with over half of the Nijayias military force.

Uhh, all I that got destroyed by the wormhole was 1 of our gateships. That is something like .3% of our forces.
The something bad happening to the Imperium is pure conjecture Posted Image

Ick, now the formats all messed up. Well Slug, an organ being found is more believeable than a vial of atoms.

Well, the fleet may not have gone with you, but it did leave at about the same time, trust me. That's the only way that a few major crime syndicates and an anciet Phylydion rebellion's remains could have taken it over and still have enough firepower to be a threat to the Imperium.

And Slug, I do just happen to have some of that new drink made on Gaitor. (Pours a glass.) Hope you don't mind a high sugar content. Well, I took that droid of mine back through the wormhole to Shug Ninx's.(If you remember, Phylydions originally came to the Ares universe through a wormhole connecting it to the Star Wars universe, but it shortly collapsed into a tiny rift that few know the location of and only tiny ships can go through.)

Actually, there's a very easy (compaired to straight-up military conquest) way to do take us over. Like the Empire in Star Wars, we need our emporer to provide unity. Unlike them, we not only don't fight very well, but become less able in general, and also depressed and/or violent.

Killing the Emporer wasn't too hard for a sufficiently motivated group of pure Taeskors lead by Verad (I've got security camera footage). They then used the Nijayias of the crime syndicates who weren't affected by the collapse of the links to take control. We're conditioned to need mental links, and weren't able to resist effectively. Military numbers were irrelevant, we just couldn't fight back.

Anyone here need jobs?
I've got a combat operation going down soon, and anyone who could be there will be payed as well as I can afford.
Oh, Cicion, Nerec said he might help with some medium vessles if someone voluteered to lead the force. We're old friends, so if you could back me up, I'd appreciate it.
