Space Fleet Alpha

Post by jwa8402 »

Chapter 1
Spoiler!
Image
Just outside of Earth's solar system, a frontier station performs peaceful scientific exploration. Earth believes it is alone in the universe and thus safe.

-This is Tranquility actual; survey team has completed their mission and finished docking.

Image
But their naivety will be measured in tears and blood.

-Strike force assembled at staging area; ready to attack the alien station. For the glory of the hive!

Image
Like a careless musket shot on a grassy field centuries before, a lone particle beam streaks through space and War is begun. The refined energy literally melts the ceramic hull plates on the unarmed station.
-What?! Strange ships? But who-what would be out this far? Oh no they're firing on us! Quick send them a hail of peaceful intentions!

Image
-I don't think they got it...Can we radio for help?
-No, we're out too far to get a response in time. Those strange beams are tearing through the outer hull; we can't take much more of this!


Image
-Oh no! The hull has been breached and the science is leaking out!

Image
-They are targeting the habitat module and our generators!
-We have to get out of here; head to the rocket-shuttle now!


Image
-Docking clamps disengaged.
-Full reverse thrusters. Strap in!
-We are away; coming about...


Image
-The reactor is going critical!

Image
-They're moving in to finish it off...
-Take us to full burn! Set course for Node 3.


Image
-Target destroyed.
-They didn't even return fire; pathetic!
-A small vessel is trying to escape at high velocity, shall we attempt to intercept?
-Negative; we need to return to the carrier for refueling. If this is the measure of their strength, it matters not when we make the killing blow.


Image
-Full burn achieved. ETA to Node 3 is nine hours.
-Terra V to Node 3 and all fleet forces; we have been attacked. I repeat, we are not alone out here and they are hostile. Tranquility base has been completely destroyed...
Prepare for war!
Not sure if this will be chapter 2 or part 1 of chapter 2. Need more time for the rest in any case.
Chapter 2
Spoiler!
Image
-Node 3 actual this is Terra V on final approach vector.
-Roger Terra V, we have you on our screens. Minefield has been deactivated.
-Minefield?! Since when is there a minefield around the base?!
-One of many changes because of your broadcast. You will be debriefed once you dock; until then maintain radio silence.

Image
-Radio silence, thats odd. Well, prepare to come about for reverse burn.
-Roger, maneuvering now.Zug zug.
-What was that?
-Nothing, just clearing my throat.

Image
-Full retro burn initiated. Negative inertia in 5-4-3-2...burn complete.
-Bring us about and initiate docking procedures.

Image
-Aye, maneuvering thrusters firing. Bringing us to bear on the docking port.
Image
Docking complete.
Welcome to node 3 Gentlemen. Please follow me so we can debrief you, then we will show you what we've been busy with. And your next mission.
-A new assignment? Already? Is it another station or here aboard Node 3?
-Neither. You'll understand once we get to the hanger deck.

So much wasted science, forever lost in the void of space :(

It's been a while since I've seen one of these. I look forward to seeing where you go with this jwa.

Cookie if you recognize the station.

I randomly check the forums and find this, awesome!

p.s. looks to me like Anna's hive station for the bees.
There is no OP, there is only more boosters...

Can't wait till Chp 3!
If admirals hate and trash your ships,
If you can't get it right;
Then off you go, but don't call quits;
Just go make custom sprites.
