Yes, I dont have any time. go ahead.

Bob Manguiez stood ready onboard the Milton Legs ship. "Sir, we have reports that we are currently being targeted and they're powering the weapons. There's also upwards of 50-650 ships, we can't tell," said the first mate, Jorge Von Burgeson.

"Fuck. We can't win this. Get to the escape pods, and set the self destruct for 30 seconds. Aim the pods for the OALM. With luck, the debris will shield us from radar. Then we wait for the orders."

Within seconds of the order, the sirens blared and all the men rushed for the escape pods. They detached and started floating through space, and then the explosion of the ship caused them to rocket through space towards Earth. Bite_Me!!'s defense stations just shot by.

"Uh, sir, we have a problem..."

"What now?"

"We're going way too fast for re-entry. The explosion shot us forward by about an additional 500 meters per seconds. And we're going to miss India. Right now, we're set for 500 kilometers west of Hawaii..."

"Oh, motherfucker..."

Sherman, Set the Way-Back machine for the begining of the De Dragon/Rogue Milton ship battle. (as per our discussion in the RP thread lets give this thing a whirl this time.

Milt I ran a good sized battleship through the number cruncher (my originally sized 200,000 ton Star Destroyer was excedingly costly (over 400 billion) and being not star fairing had way too much wasted space (normally used for fuel tanks and star drives) so I scalled it down to a 20,000 ton battleship that costs a mear 42.3 billion and a working crew (minus the shipboard troops and flight dec crews of about 1050 (the big one had over 3000 in the 'esential' crew slots) With you're economy and the fact that you have other ships I think the still increadably large 20,000 ton ship more than impressive enough:

Code:

Milts Huge Battleship - BA - L1023B4 860000-40607 - 50  MC=42276.675  Tons=20000
                                Bat:  P     _ 6 E                     Crew=1230
                                Ber:  O     ] 6 D                       TL=8

  Passengers=0  Cargo=134.5 Fuel=600  EP=600
  Troops=900  Bridge(s)=2 Capacitors=0 Agility=0

  Launch Facilities:  Ship may Launch 2 craft a turn
  1 Launch tubes of 10 tons, can launch upto 10 craft a turn
  Ship Craft:              Modules:               
  50 Fighters (10 tons)    4 Fuel (30 tons)       
                           4 Troop (30 tons)      
  4 Launch (20 tons)                              
  4 Cutter (50 tons)                              
  1 Shuttle (95 tons)                             
  1 Hangar (1000 tons)

This behemouth has 6 partical accelerator bays and 14 missle bays, 80 triple beam laser turrets (grouped into 40 batteries {anti missle/aircraft}) and 100 triple sand casters (grouped into 25 powerful anti laser/missle batteries) Each bay weapon will need a crew of 2 to man and each turret battery will need a crew of 1 to man (and if the ship is going to do anything manuver wise you need a skeleton crew in command and engeneering.
Belive it or not, this thing is scaryier with the 6 particle accelerator bays than a lone spinal mount and it also saved both space and energy requirements.

So here is where we stand:

Shit, though the Lucky Duck, "Engage the target, but lets try not to destroy it"

(occ) Milt the situation, there are 3 large ships (you can probably damage but not destroy them), 117 smaller ships (60-100 ton, 30-200 ton, the rest larger) that you may be able to destroy, 50 small craft ranging from 20-30 tons, and 302-10 ton fighters (all the small craft are accelerating rapidly). You've a skeleton crew if only 30 so I'm guessing that you've got about 10 in engineering, 10 on the bridge and probably 10 manning batteries of weapons. You call the shots what are you're targets? Grouping shots or spreading them out? Weapons manned (laser, missle)?
And Get into the roll play, give us 'bob's situation and mindset!!

So what are you're targets Bob?
