2008-04-07 - Battle on Thyferra

Thyferra: Tefa City - Promenade North
An impeccable avenue of polished stone runs from east-to-west, the most important axis on the planet, and is bisected by another that leads north to the planet's spaceport. In the west, the boulevard is protected by a canopy of ancient trees and leads forth to the residential sectors. To the east looms the hubris and grandeur of the administrative centre of Thyferra. And here, in the middle, is the central market for everything on the planet. Almost anything imaginable might be bought or sold here in a given day, but most commerce revolves around the bacta trade that sustains the planet. As the citizens like to joke, the government likes to keep the credits flowing east and not west.
The buildings in the area look to be constructed of native stone, testament to the ancient wealth of the planet. Ishi Tib are omnipresent, going about their lives at the usual stately pace, but the presence of offworlders in the area is not altogether unlikely, especially as one approaches the spaceport.
Standing outside the spaceport, within the streets of the city proper, stands Aidus. A rank of clones stand behind him but surely this is not all of them. The rest are hiding themselves in doorways and in alleys waiting for their master to give the command to attack. The chaos that had met the clones when they had invaded is gone. There are no screams of women and children, no males herding their families to safety. No, the streets seem to be diserted as a strange silence has discended upon the city. Obviously, the arrival of Republic landing craft gave away the sense that a battle was to be fought soon. The smart had fled the city to the fields and surrounding villages. Those that weren't as smart now were held hostage in their own homes hoping that a wayward bolt did not silence them forever.
It's not secret that the Republic is coming. Oh no. The dropship has landed some time ago, and soldiers have moved quickly to secure the perimeter with the assurance that, overhead at least, they are covered. Only now do they begin to move, the massive form of an armored tank taking the lead. The space to funnel from the spaceport and into the Promenade is not large, and they move in neat, disciplined ranks, weapons held at the ready. Their bootsteps pound with rhythmic force in the silence, and a female voice - strong and loud - calls from the back as the first clones are sighted. "Guard, engage!" Weapons lower menacingly.
At the fore of the Republic ranks towers a tall man in a tan tunic and trousers, green eyes firm and steady as he walks close to the hulking shape of the tank. This man is different from those surrounding; not just in his uniform, but in his bearing, holding himself with a strong and silent confidence that would seem almost arrogant to some, and simply calm to others.
As Anakin Skywalker ironically walks (on the ground), his right hand falls to his left side, a thin cylinder of steel pulled from his belt. With a loud hiss, a blade of purple light shoots out from it, energy crackling through the air. 
<FONT COLOR=#FFFF00>COMBAT:</FONT> Anakin Skywalker ignites his purple lightsaber.
Aidus nods to the clones behind them and raises his hand. Smiling that causes his white face to look predatory. His dark red eyes narrow as he brings it forward. The clones behind him rush forward past him. Others emerge from the doorways nearby. They all rush forward. Behind them the bald man trots, black force pike in hand he is angling towards the Jedi. Today was going to be interesting then. The clones rush towards the tank. They move quickly as does their master, "Come brothers! Let us show these infidels what you can do! Show your father how much you will give for his planet!!"
A colossal explosion rips through Thyferra: Tefa City - Spaceport.
Republic Officer 20 rolls the big 'ol tank up in front. Inside he smokes a fat cigar, that's halfway-finished, which he keeps clamped between his teeth. The tanks targetting systems go active as he arms the weaponry.
"Hold onto your butts!"
Black Fleet 12 rallies up the gang of clones. "Look to your right. Look to your left. What do you clones see? Yourself! That's right men. We're fighting here for each other, for brotherhood, for camraderie. These fools before us only fight for themselves, so we are assured of a certain victory!" He waves his pistol about heroically.
Black Fleet 15 lets the other fellow do all the exhorting. Peering at the advancing army, he gazes backwards at potential fall-back positions. He wonders, "Uh, where in the hell is our damned air support?"
It's difficult to make out a commanding officer in a flood of troops, and Briseis is no exception. The petite Guard officer is lost among the throngs who move forward, rushing into place to lower their weapons and take aim. From somewhere near the back, a female voice shouts encouragement and orders, urging them forward. Ferox Cohort 1 is the first to arrive.
The clones are rushing towards the tank when they smell at first then sight the advancing troopers. They smile to themselves and let out a predatory howl as they rush forward ignoring the tank now for the ground soldiers. They decend on the Guard like a pack of dogs. Their claws extended those that make it to them unleash their fury.

Perhaps noticing the attention one of the Imperium leaders directs towards him, Anakin turns slightly and leans into a faster pace, the blade of purple light clenched in his fist whirring dangerously. As the two armies crash together Anakin picks up the pace even more, calm and placid as he advances on Aidus, blade swinging. 
<FONT COLOR=#FFFF00>COMBAT:</FONT> Anakin Skywalker swings his purple lightsaber at Aidus!
<FONT COLOR=#FFFF00>COMBAT:</FONT> Aidus tries to parry with his Black Force Pike, but Anakin Skywalker's purple lightsaber hits and shreds him. Aidus collapses, critically injured.
The bald, chalk white head of Aidus can be seen bobbing in the sea of clones. As he moves forward he is spots the jedi coming at him. Raising his force pike he smirks as they are about to colide. Raising his pike to parry the lightsaber, he is not quick enough as it bypasses him and strikes him. The blade slices through his armor and down his chest. The burning sensation is immense. Everything seems to be moving in slow motion now. Still standing he looks down at the gash in his armor. Shaking his head the pain now registers sending his body into shock. He collapses on the ground in a heap. Eyes closed as he seems to be out to the world around him.

The tank rolls on as combat begins. Its massive gun turns on the clones as they charge forward. A bolt of energy pounds towards them! From inside, the officer yells, "Stick that in your pipe and smoke it!!"

Black Fleet 12 takes careful careful precise aim at the Jedi, no doubt swearing vengeance against the only visible Republic Officer. "Have at you!" He sends a blaster bolt off across the promenade, but the Jedi sends it right back to him, blasting the poor officer right in his heroic shoulder. "Why I never! You cad!", he proclaims.
The soldiers of the Guard are brave ones, and they hold their ground as the clones fall on them. Weapons lower and fire their fury at the clones. The streets are quiet no longer - indeed, they light up with the sounds of blasterfire and the cries of men and women running high on adrenaline.

Black Fleet 15 takes aim at the mass combat, selecting one of the guards in the struggle.. as soon as he has a clear shot, he opens up with his blaster, "Take them down! Death to the Republic!"
The clones have infiltrated the group of guards. They are now roaving from target to target...the ones that haven't been killed yet that is. They ignore the blast from the tank as it is no matter. If they want to fire into their own men that is for them to decide. The blast from the tank throws dirt onto a clone as it is ontop of a downed Guardsmen. It's claws digging into the armor.

His foe dealt with, Anakin turns just in time to see a blaster bolt coming towards him; he reacts quickly, blade just catching the bolt and reflecting it back into the mass of clones. His feet follow the path of the blaster bolt, purple blade swinging.

Laying there passed out, Aidus continues to seem oblivious to the world. If you didn't know better and couldn't see the massive burn and gash over his chest you might think he was actually sleeping in the middle of the battle. His force pike is still gripped in his hand.
From RGEF Armor 003, 
The tank misses.. and gets scratched!? "Geroff my tank!!" the driver demands, launching another blaster bolt at the clones.

Black Fleet 12 gets tired of the Jedi in a hurry and triggers his comsys.
<FONT COLOR=#FBB917>COMSYS:</FONT> Black Fleet 12 says, "Marshal Aidus is down, repeat Marshal Aidus is down. Jedi attack. Attempting to evac."
Black Fleet 12 tasks a couple of nearby clones. "You men, grab that officer and fall back. I'll cover you." He moves over in that direction, ready to shoot anyone who comes nearby.
The clones, loyal to the end, do as commanded. Aidus is hefted up and the clones start to advance rearward.

Tied up in, y'know, fighting clones, Anakin does not see a blaster bolt coming right for his face until the last moment; he turns just in time to keep all of the important organs up there, the bolt blasting across his forehead. Stumbling, the Jedi falls to one knee and pushes himself backwards into the Republic troops, eyes closing tightly in pain. 
Black Fleet 15 lines up his shot while the jedi is distracted with chopping up his comrade, "Get the commander out of here! Leave the Jedi to me!" Despite the dangers of firing a repeating blaster into close combat, he opens up! When the Jedi retreats, he calls, "That's their general! Press them harder, clones, push them back!"
From RGEF Armor 003, 
The tank wheels forward, aiming its big gun at the clones again. A red beam of energy lashes out at them, targetting their center-column, or area.

As the clones surge forward, the ordely ranks of the Guards break and fighting becomes something more like chaos. Blaster bolts fire this way and that, and it's more than one soldier is hit by friendly fire. A fierce call from the back orders, "Form up! Hold ranks, Guards, and watch your fire!" 
In the midst of the chaos, a blaster bolt slices through the mass of soldiers surrounding her, and even at the back of the the cohort where she's difficult to find, it catches her across the chest and she hisses inward in pain and then moves forward, working her way slowly through the troops with the occasional report from her repeater. Her gaze whips toward the retreating clones and their Marshall and she shouts, "Press forward, move on, do /not let them escape/!"
Behind her, the steady boots of the second cohort pound the pavement to join their comrades.

The clones continue to fight on. They are falling left and right but they continue. There are more clones waiting, but they seem to know instinctively to wait for the retreat now. They turn and head back towards the civic dome.

<FONT COLOR=#FBB917>COMSYS:</FONT> Black Fleet 12 says, "All troops, regroup. We're falling back to the Civic Dome. Say again. Regroup and fall back to Civic Dome."
Black Fleet 12 relays another set of orders through the comsys, still backpedalling to cover Aidus' evac. The clones are moving as fast as they can, trying to get him away. Black Twelve, as he likes to be called, must suspect that the tank is giving him the stink eye, so he takes a pot shot at it.

Black Fleet 15 hurries backwards as well, firing to cover his own retreat before the advancing army. He, too, shoots at the largest target - the tank!

From RGEF Armor 003, The tank gets hit. A scorch mark on the side! Alas.
The Guard press forward, and now there's a roar of triumph as they drive the clones back toward the dome. Behind them, the commanding voice calls encouragement, and as they swell forward past Anakin her gaze drops only briefly to note the fallen Jedi and then bark sharp orders to get him back to safety. A pair of Guard soldiers are fast to obey.

The clones are falling back. Some are hit in the back and go down. The rest enter the civic dome ahead of the officers. There is a strange silence now as the Dome's wall muffle the sounds of clones.
From RGEF Armor 003, 
The tank rolls over and squishes fallen clones, squirting out blood as it slumps to the side. Its weapon systems target the retreating clones, aiming for their backsides. "Say hello to my little friend!" the officer shouts.

Black Fleet 12 keeps falling back towards the Civic center, covering the handful of clones evacuating Marshal Aidus. "Keep at it, clones. We're almost to the dome." He takes a shot at anyone who looks remotely like an officer, perhaps a different shade of hat.
<FONT COLOR=#FFFF00>COMBAT:</FONT> Black Fleet 12 fires his Naval Officer's Pistol at Briseis!
Thyferra: Civic Dome - Atrium
The Ishi Tib, drunk off their own prosperity, chose to situate their government in the tallest building upon the planet. And to highlight their own grandeur, they also decided to substitute a dome in place of a standard roof. The dome allows for a small opening at its centre, so that light may enter, and, joke the few militarists on the planet, so that missiles might be shot outward. The vast space is intended to invoke a feeling of awe, since it so thoroughly dwarfs everything in its vicinity. The floors appear to be fashioned out of a decadent strain of marble, and banners of purple and gold hang the length of the walls.
In the centre of the room is a circular dais bearing the crest of the Coalition of Thyferran Plantations. Around it, the Ishi Tib conduct most of their democratic business. But in normal times, citizens use the building as a causeway between the Bacta Exchange to the North and the Bank of Thyferra to the easy. The untrained observer would immediately conclude that the Thyferrans are far more eager for public profit than for public participation.
<FONT COLOR=#FFFF00>COMBAT:</FONT> Briseis tries to dodge, but Black Fleet 12's blaster bolt hits and lightly wounds her.
Black Fleet 12 does a fist pump. "Ha! I zinged that one!" He keeps duck walking backwards. "Fall back, fall back."
Black Fleet 15, who has beem aiming at the tank as he fell back, fires at the officer who is foolish enough to leave it's protection, "Where's your cannon now, hunh?" After firing, he retreats to the Dome with the others.
As the clones have retreated they come running in to now take up the first rank of what can be seen is row after row of clones. They are all wild and ready for battle. Seeing their master being dragged in they wait for the Guard to enter and then swarm forward. Racing around the retreating officers they attack.

The officer gets shot in the chest and scowls. "My uniform!" he yells as he falls back, and lands on some rubble. He trips backwards, of course, behind some cover and lays there. He doesn't get up.
The clones surge forward. The ones that had retreated and are now at the fore attack the troops that had been following them in. They are wild animals now. Their master is not conscious so they have no one to control their rage.

Briseis doesn't look anything like an officer - in the crowd, all hats are the same, all armor identical. Only the voice identifies her, urging them forward and onward. It cuts off abruptly as another blasterbolt catches her and she pauses for a moment in the flood of soldiers before pushing forward once more.
The first cohort, victims to the first attack, falls back to secure the area while the second, full of fresh faces, flooda into the civic dome after the clones. They waste no time in attacking.

The medium blaster cannon therein goes into overdrive, unleashing a furious fury of whining bolts, positively tearing up the second cohort. Why, one man is even injured by the sheer power of the turret. Injured, I say. "Let that be a lesson to you fools!", the officer cackles.
Black Fleet 15 fighting past the pain of his wound, the officer keeps firing at his chosen target, "Oppressor! You shall not grind this world under the heel of your oligarchy!"

The Republic soldier laughs as the Clones are torn apart, and the Black Officer misses. "You're the worst shot I've seen since Nash Dragen!" he calls back. He takes aim again, and fires.

"Fall back! Second, fall back!" The call rises from the entrance to the Civic Dome as more soldiers rush forward to replace their fallen comrades.

From Defense Turret 47, Black Fleet 12 swivels the fearsome turret about, mowing down the opposing troops with abandon. "The cost of victory will be too steep for you lot to pursue, and it is also beyond your grasp entirely, since you are doomed to not be victorious." This is what the man says, all right, even though the whine of blaster bolts make it a bit tough to follow the rambling. One of the bolts connects and tears through a Cohort soldier.
Black Fleet 15 aims and fires at the republic officer, "I'll get you yet, you.. you republican!"

Aidus on the other hand is taken in the arms of one of clones at the rear. He looks lovingly at his master. Shaking his head he runs towards a back entrance taking his leader to safety.
As the clones continue, so too does the Guard, pressing ever-inward. A few growl their fury and attempt to press toward the retreating Marshal, but the clones before them are too great. Blasterfire resounds in the large space.
