CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::steps onto the bridge and takes Tac::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: at flight waiting for the action to happen::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::checks sensors and updates the map of the mine feild::
CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Discussing battle patterns with Lieutenant Arinoch, who is in the TIC ::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Skipper feild is active and marked
CEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::In Main Engineering at the MSD, keeping an eye on events, and sending her Damage Control teams to their battle stations::

ACTION: The ship receives a data bust from the bird of prey: "The Alvar fleet is on the move. And they are not..."   The rest of the message is cut short.

CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Damage control parties at stations. Vital areas secured. Battle stations manned and ready
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Captain we just received a data burst from the Klingons. It says that the Alvar fleet is on the move and they are not... and that is where it cuts out.
CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Finishes up his conversation ::  CIV: Bring weapons to full online.  FCO: New evasive patterns should be appearing at your console momentarily.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Aye Captain :: checks the patterns as they come in::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Aye skipper ::brings weapons up and raises shields::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Weapons hot and ready shields up
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Captain the transmission has been jammed - that is why it was cut short.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
FCO: Guess whose coming to dinner
CEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
*CIV*: The TIC should be able to coordinate the fleet action for you and the Aegis program should be in place to share targeting data and engage automatically if you need it.
CO_Captain_Savar says:
FCO: Hopefully the Klingons will fall back to their defensive position

ACTION: The Alvar fleet is approaching the mine field, and a few of the mines has been detected exploding.

CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
*CEO*: Understood. Im' not activating the Aegis unless things go seriously wrong
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: One can only hope Captain but you know Klingons.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: Wonder if we have enough for them?
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
FCO: We'll just replicate them some if we don't
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Sensors show mine detonations
CEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::Monitors ships systems on the MSD and keeps a channel open to monitor bridge chatter::
CO_Captain_Savar says:
*CTO*: Signal the first wave to stand by.  Aggressive hit and run on the lead vessels, try to scatter the smaller vessels.  FCO/CIV: We and the Minerva will be heading for the heaviest of the cruisers, hoping to knock out the largest weapons first.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Aye sir. Preparing firing solutions

ACTION: The colony fleet moves into position.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Aye Captain.  Any ideal on what those three other vessels are?
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Skipper attacking force is made of 32 Alvar and three ships of unknown origin
CO_Captain_Savar says:
FCO: Split viewscreen.  Put up their relative position and sensor data.

ACTION: The Alvar fleet holds back from the mine field, while the largest of the three unknowns move to head.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Aye Captain :: puts the split screen up on the main viewer::
CO_Captain_Savar says:
CIV: Breen.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
:: grunts at the sensor feed:: CO: Main Alvar force is holding at the feild. Three larger vessels are still coming on
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: Any idea what they are yet?
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::looks at the sensor feed:: FCO/CO: Breen. One warship, two cruisers
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Captain, we need to take out that warship as quick as we can.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Breen, skipper. The warship is moving ahead through the feild

ACTION: The Breen warship fires a high level energy beam into the mine field at the same time half the Alvar fleet moves into the field through where the beam was fired at.

CO_Captain_Savar says:
FCO: Agreed.  Only the Sharikahr and Minerva would be able to withstand their energy dampening weapon.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
Self: Frakk
CO_Captain_Savar says:
*CTO*: Reprioritize targets.
CEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::Makes sure all unneeded systems are offline, and brings the backup generators online to give the ship maximum power for battle use. Makes sure the shields and structural integrity are reinforced::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:; sets up evasive patterns to use on the Breen ship::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
:: watches the target solution change:: CO: Targeting the warship. Designating target Sierra One
CO_Captain_Savar says:
*CEO*: Engineering.  A Breen vessel has neutralized the minefield to allow the Alvar passage.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Sir, we have a gap in the feild. Alvar ships moving through it
CEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
*CO*: They should replicate more of themselves Captain, or so they were designed too...

ACTION: As the last of the first half of the Alvar cross the field the mines come back online taking out the last  seven vessels close to he mine field.

CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::smiles as he see's the sensor data:: CO/FCO: 7 down feild is back up
CO_Captain_Savar says:
FCO: Realign on the heaviest cruiser on this side.  CIV: Target and fire at will.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: With that Breen ship setting out there is really doesn't make any difference.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Aye sir. Adjusting targeting solution :: readjusts and begins firing::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Aye Captain :: sets the course and engages::

ACTION: The remaining twelve Alvar ships head straight for the planet, at full impulse speed,

CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: They are ignoring us and heading for the colony

ACTION: The Breen warship is moving to another position and lines up and fires the beam again into the mine field.

CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
FCO: That ship is really starting to tick me off

ACTION: The remaining Alvar fleet moves through the field along with the two Breen cruisers.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Captain it appears that they may be trying one of their earlier plans. They are heading straight for the planet.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::swears:: CO: Rest of the fleet is through the feild along with the two cruisers
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: It is me also but we cant let these ship reach the planet.

ACTION: The colony fleet has engaged the incoming Alvar.

ACTION: The warship is sitting on the other side of the mine field still just watching, while the two Breen cruisers are making pace for the Sharikahr.

CEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::Monitors things on the MSD ready to act if needed::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Cruisers are heading for us

ACTION: The Alvar fleet is cut in half, colony ships have lost about as much.  Breen has engaged the Sharikahr firing disrupters.

CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Incoming
CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Grips the armrests of the captain's chair as weapons impact their shields ::  CIV: Return fire.  *CTO*: Where's the Minerva?
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: engages evasive actions trying to stay away from the Breen fire::

ACTION: Incoming call from Minerva.

CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::begins firing on the Breen ships launching torpedoes::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Captain we have an incoming call from the Minerva.
CO_Captain_Savar says:
FCO: On screen!

ACTION: The captain of the Minerva appears on screen,

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: place the call on screen:: CO : On screen captain
CEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::Makes sure the shield harmonics are properly set and the frequency is constantly changing to provide maximum defense::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::watches the tubes reload and then lets another brace fly::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
FCO: Ain't this a party, all we need is beer
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:; makes sure that there is plenty of power routed  to the shields, weapons and engines::
CO_Captain_Savar says:
CIV: Cut the chatter, Commander.
Commander_Prisca says:
COM: Shair:  We have engaged the Alvar, the force has proven a lot to the colony ships. We are holding them back form the planet surface.
CO_Captain_Savar says:
COM: Minerva: Understood.  We're attempting to engage the bulk of the forces here.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::smiles and adjusts targets::

ACTION: The Sharikahr rocks form a hit, shields down t o85%.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: Maybe we should beam in a couple of kegs to the Breen.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::holds his console:: CO: Shields down to 85%

ACTION: The Sharikahr is hit again and sparks fly in engineering, throwing the CEO to the floor.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: changes evasive action patterns after the last hit::
CEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::grunts as she hits the deck, then rolls over and gets back up, making sure she and the rest of her folks are OK, then checks the MSD for any damage to the ship::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::readjusts and fires directly at the cruisers, this time firing both phaser and torpedoes at the enemy::

ACTION: The Breen cruisers flew by the Sharikahr and begin to turn about.

CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: They're turning Captain

CIV: How quick are you on targeting and firing?
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::fires the aft weapons::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
FCO: You line the ducks up and I'll knock 'em down
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: I was thinking of a little variation on the Picard move.

ACTION: The lead Breen ship takes a direct hit. It drops back as the second moves forward and fires again at the Sharikahr.

CEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::Dispatches a Damage Control team to repair the damaged transporters and another to start repairs on the shields::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: rolls the ship as he see the other ship fire::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::targets the lead vessel and fires::

ACTION: The Duergar are moving in.

CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Skipper seems the Calvary is here
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CIV: Lets hope it is our Calvary and not theirs.

ACTION: Two Alvar vessels enter the upper atmosphere.

CEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::Starts repairs on one of the consoles herself::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
:: nods at the FCO and keeps his eye's on the sensors  and targeting data::
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Captain two of the Alvar vessels have made it into the planets upper atmosphere.
CO_Captain_Savar says:
FCO: What are they doing?

ACTION: From the surface of Nova Arcadia, two explosions are seen over the colony about 15 miles up from the surface.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Checking now Captain. :: brings the ship around for another pass at the Breen ship::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Two airburst explosions detected from the colony skipper
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Captain it looks like they are either bombing or releasing something. There have been two explosions about 15 miles above the surface.

ACTION: The remaining Alvar fleet (all 14 of them) and the two Breen vessels all disengage battle and head back toward the mine field.

CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Turns to science ::  CSO: Begin analyzing what's going on with the colony.  FCO/CIV: Focus on the remaining enemy vessels.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Aye Skipper
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::adjusts his firing vectors and begins laying fire down::

ACTION: The Breen warship fires its beam into the field opening a path for the retreating vessels.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: swears:: CO: The remaining ships are heading back out towards the mines suggest we manually detonate the mines when they get near them.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Enemy is falling back
CO_Captain_Savar says:
FCO: Negative.  Break off engagement.  *CTO*: Signal the fleet to go to defensive positions.

ACTION: Two Alvar ships are hit fomo the fire of the Sharikahr.  They lose power.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Aye Captain :: breaks off the pursuit::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Skipper two enemy ships are dead in the water. Might be a good chance to take POWs

CO_Captain_Savar says:
CIV: We will secure our position, and then attempt to recover survivors from the enemy vessels.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Understood captain
CEO_Cmdr_Hembrook says:
::Monitors progress of the repairs as she works on the damaged console::
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
::begins securing the ship::
SO_PO_Silek says:
CO:  If I am reading this right, I do believe there has been a biological agent dispersed into the atmosphere.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: starts checking on the damage to the ship::
CO_Captain_Savar says:
SO: Can you identify it, or its effects?
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: Recommend the colony begins evacuating captain
CO_Captain_Savar says:
CIV: What are your suspicions?
SO_PO_Silek says:
CIV: Too late for that.  It's already in the air.    CO: I need to analyze it some more. A sample of the air or a sample of whatever dispersed it.
CO_Captain_Savar says:
All: It sounds as though we should quarantine the planet until we can better diagnose the situation.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Captain at the moment the shields are at 85% and there are no transporters along with various consoles damaged through out the ship.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
CO: They refined the agent they used on the colony before. If we evacuate if even only temporarily until we know the effects of the agent
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Also the Minerva has suffered a lot more damage.

ACTION: The Minerva is hailing.

FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
CO: Captain the Minerva is hailing us.
CO_Captain_Savar says:
:: Notes the hail ::  FCO: On screen.
FCO_Cmdr_Twelk says:
:: place the Hail on screen:: CO: On screen captain.
CIV_Cmdr_Wall says:
:: finishes securing weapons:: CO: Weapons secured  captain
Commander_Prisca says:
@COM: Sharikahr: Captain. We let those two get by, nothing we could do.  We have lost weapons and warp drive. We need any assistance you could spare, until we repair damages we are out of it,
