Out of nowhere, an Orange Star exploded. Than another, and another, until they were almost all gone. They're firing on eachother! Mitth`raw`nuruodo quickly ordered all ships away from the Orange Stars to reduce collateral damage, but it was too late. All the Orange Stars were gone, save one. Mitth`raw`nuruodo quickly opened a channel to Rye's freqency.
"Rye, are you there? What the hell happened?" Mitth paused a moment, listening for a reply. "Rye, do you read me? Rye, are you still there?"
After a few seconds, he heard a faint reply, garbled by static. "Officer, boost that signal!"
The communications officer flipped a few switches. "That's the best I can do Sir."
It came in, still garbled, but a little louder. "Orange Stars...malfunction...didn't kill Ora...tar 1...all oth....gone" Then Rye came in clear. " (insert message here, blah blah, all other ships are dead but this one, let's go kick some Ice ass) "
The ships relaunched into hyperspace, with a noticable absense of Orange Stars among the fleet. Curious. We will just have to make do with what fate has given us, Mitth`raw`nuruodo observed while walking back to his meditation chamber.

At one of the larger shipyards controlled by Ice, life went on as it normally did at the dead of night when everyone was asleep.
Suddenly thousands of heavy warship and millions of smaller ships emerged from hyperspace right in the middle of the shipyard.
Thank you helm and nav for the wonderful flying. ALL SHIPS ATTACK!!
Millions of troop transports unload there troops into the main berth area where the enemy ships are docked.
The enemy ships are almost 2/3 of all of Ice's GBMO firgates and smaller ships.
Some ghosts storm the Command and Control center and deactivate the shipyards defense. Meanwhile the rest of the troopers attack the barracks and officer housing and slaughter the men inside the buildings.
The GIA fleet is busy blasting the enemy ships to shreds.
About half of the GBMO ships come active and start firing back at the GIA fleet. Hundreds of thousands of the smaller ships of the GIA fleet are wiped out quickly. The larger ships of the GIA fleet are starting to take some heavy damage.
A nearby land base is alerted and dispatches it forces to help. When they arrive the GIA troopers, having just killed all the men on the ground, are caught totally unaware and millions are slauhtered before being they fight back.
While the ground battle rages, things are not looking good for the GBMO ships. However, already 1 GIA Battlecruisers,10 Frigates, almost all of the destroyers have been destroyed. Soon it is over. Nearly 2/3 of the GIA fleet is gone. Half the remaining ships descend provide air support for the troops on the ground. The rest remain in orbit to keep watch.
When it is finally over 90% of all GIA ground forces have been destroyed. Only 1/6 of the orginal fleet is still flying.
As the ships perpare to set out, the sensor officer on Fisher flagship calls out.
"Sir, I am reading a massive fleet emergeing from hyperspace. It consits of 20 battlecruires, 40 frigates, 30 destroyers, and thousands of small craft. All GBMO signature!!"
ALL SHIPS, OMEGA SIGNAL. GET OUT NOW. GO!GO!GO!
Helm gets us out of here now.
As the remaining GIA ships flee they are pursed and are destroyed.
Fisher ship makes it out of the system but is being pursued.
"Sir, go to your ship. When we return to real space, get out of the battlecruiser and engage your cloak. After that you got to get to the main fleet and warn them that what we hit had to be a trap."
Fisher agrees and flies from the BattleCruiser when it reverts to realspace. He engages the cloak just before a GBMO task force emerges from hyperspace and opens fire on the battlecruiser. the GIA ship fought bravely but was overwhelmed and destroyed.
After the GBMO ships left he engaged his hyperdrive and attempted to find the main fleet.
Damn where is it? I have got to warn them.
How ever he could not locate the main fleet and he didn't have enough fuel to make it to a GIA fuel depot so he landed at a small colony nad had to wait a week to receive the fuel he need. When he left he hoped he that it wouldn't matter they had most likely walked into a trap.

Ice looks over the damage caused to his shipyard and his fleet's losses, and shakes his head.
Soon, he would have his revenge upon them.
He left for his Command Ship, along with Lonestar-vell, and prepared to make his next move. While the Gnomes struck at his HQ...so too would he strike at theirs.
