Carrier Battles Mod 8
(Quick reference)
The war against The Imperial Empire as raged on from nearly the day contact has been established. Up until this date the war has been mall scale. The Imperials have destroyed 3 Ramtan scout vessels keeping tabs on their fleets from behind the lines. For our side we destroyed some colony ships that ventured into our space and glassed some enemy colonies in a contested system.


Our offensive had taken many years to come together. The first major battle was on the eve of begining as the invasion force tranversed the Edam Nebulae dividing the Ramtans from the Imperials. Stardate 2404.7 the battle began on the warp point into the Langui system. To our surprise the Imperials had moved an impressive fleet to protect the point(5 Nautilus class destroyers, 2 Penitent class carriers). Our prior inteligence had suggested the Imperials fleet was small and scattered. However our force as more than ready for the challenge,led by the 8 light carriers(RIS Kregor, Hathaway, Palsgrove,Falcon, Hypnotic, Charpentier, Longshanks, and Rutigliano) and support cruiser RIS Taurus. The Ramtan fleet jumped into battle in an arrowhead formation against the Imperial scattered formation. The initial bombardment caused heavy damage to the RIS Kregor. However that was the best the Imperials could offer as the Ramtans even in the surprise of hitting the Imperials large fleet we were able to launch multiple squadrons of Raptor, Viper, Swallow and Sparrow class fighters which after a slug fest were able to destrey the Imperial Tie fighters. The battle raged on for what seemed like hours. In the end the Ramtans succeeded in clearing the point and creating a beachhead in Imperial space. All Imperial ships were destroyed with no survivors seen,while the RIS Kregor took severe damage but somehow managed to stay together while the Hathaway and Falcon also took moderate damage. With the beachhead established intense battles can be guarenteed.

Little does he know that carriers are on the way to intercept his forces soon...

Alright! Crank up that propaganda machine!

My only problem in this game is that I'm running out of unique ship names to use.

The year is 2406.4 nearly 2 years after the pevious engagement. The Ramtan empire now has a strong foothold in the Langui system. Our fleet has been reinforced and is now presently holding over the imperials last colony system. Ramtan ground forces have been engaged in a bloody battle for the planet for over 5 years. Over the years Ramtan fleets have enjoyed success after success verse the Imperials.
Today however the Ramtan cruiser RIS Resolve was ambushed and destroyed by a fleet of Pentintent .2 carriers(9 carriers). Heavily outnumbered and jumped on the point the small crusier Resolve put up a valiant fight destroying multiple wings of Imperial Tie Int .3's before being engulfed and destroyed. Searches of the area have found no survivors and it appears the entire crew of the Resolve was killed. The loss of the Resolve was the first Ramtan vessel to be destroyed since the RIS's inception. The Ramtan government has taken the steps today to honor the loss of the cruiser Resolve; which was to christen the newest Pagan class battleship the Resolve 2 to follow in her sister ships name sake.
The fleet of Pentintent carriers has entered Langui and will be destroyed shortly to evenge the Resolve.

Stardate 2406.5:
Langui system: As of today the system belongs to the Ramtan Empire.
The Imperials mustered an impressive fleet of 9 Pentinent .2 carriers armed with tie interceptor .3's. The Ramtan command anticipated marginal losses of her carrier force in orbit of Langui IV. However when the Imperials assaulted Langui IV to remove the Ramtan blockade and assault on the planet the battle was completely one sided. In a hard fought battle the Ramtan Fleet obliterated the Imperial fleet destroying all 9 carriers and their fighter escorts. The Ramtan fleet again suffered minimal losses with only a 2 vessels lightly damaged which was quicklly repaired. Our fighter squadrons suffered losses but they were relatively light. The Ramtan troops on the planet were also inspired on by the victory in orbit and finally conquered the planet below adding a large planet stocked with faciities and breathable population.
With the few survivors from the space battle and population below the Ramtan forces have interagated we believe the Imperial's will be conquered in the coming years.
The Ramtan Tirpitz and Littorio carriers have outmatched the Imperial Pentenent .1 and .2 at every turn and the Ramtan Raptors have dominated the fighter battles

Stardate 2406.6

The Ramtan fleet again destroyed various Imperial starships scattered about.
The Imperials appear defeated and fleet appears to be destroyed. The Ramtan Inteligence has not seen any imperial vessel action in many turns. The moral has been so low in the Imperial Navy this turn a Pentinent .2 class Carrier has rebelled and asked for refuge in the Ramtan empire. Intel and diplomatic officers were dispatched to help the crew navigate to Ramtan space and re-Christened the ship RIS Benedict Arnold
