Space wars - Orion Rebellion

No news has come in from the outer rim for nearly a decade now….

Equipped with the best long range sensors and lightdar, the deep space scout frigate Voyager was dispatched to the Orion Massive to investigate.

Returning to Earth after 3 year trip she has bad news to report…..Rebellion and Anarchy have erupted again in the outposts of man.

Grand Marshal Tiberius in desperate need of supplies immediately authorities executive order ‘Black’ to requisition all civilian transportation shipping to hand, and dispatches them to way point alpha. Under Earth defence destroyer escort.

While Admiral Nechayev responds in support of her liege lord, by issuing fleet recall and assembly of all Fleet Auxiliaries at Jupiter Planitia Anchorage, even the newly constructed Fleet Tanker Kraken is rushed into service. Commandeering Voyager as temporary flag ship she sets out for way point alpha six weeks later.

Meanwhile Tiberius contacts General Brutus, ordering the 352nd Royal Guard Legion to muster and board the Jovian Deep Space Carrier. The Legion consists of the 4077th, 4078th & 4079th Space Marine Guard Regiments. Each regiment has its own assets to deploy, AT, Heavy, Mortar, Recce, transport. 


Additionally the 352nd Royal Guard Legion divisional assets are, 999th Mobile Infantry Regiment, 352nd Scout Battalion, 352nd AT Walker Battalion, 8073rd Reconnaissance Battalion.





In support the 7078th Assault (Short) Brigade are on hand to board the Neptunian Deep Space Drop Ship. 

Heavy bunker assault focused, the 7078th turned the battle during the heavy fighting at Artimas Industrial Colony! Dropped in from the Neptunian, dispatch’s makes note of the bravery of Chief Gurney who rallied the 7078th first assault.




Also the 101st Independent Tank Regiment board her sister ship Saturnian, to provide heavy fire support. They are reinforced with a light tank battalion on the orders of the mysterious Colonel X.

Deep space relay stations light up with 24/7 comms across the whole local cluster. Prompting Commodore Elkenbrand to meet with patrol Captains from all around the sector. Taking all but a few ships he sets about clearing a path of any marauders or pirates in the fleets way.

The Saturnian suffers engine troubles en-route and falls behind the main transport fleet. Tiberius leaves Brutus onboard and sends further deep space orders to the Admirals and Commodores of Naval Capital ships to sweep up stragglers.

The Jovian pushes on ahead flanked by the Neptunian and further fleet auxiliaries.

Elkenbrand meets Nechayev and Tiberius nearly three months later at way point Alpha. After resupply, the civil shipping heads home, while the Tiberius is furious no Naval Capital ships have yet assembled for escort duty. 

The rebels must be everywhere!

Back at Earth Brigadier Jansen ignores direct orders to fortify Earth. In an act of sheer glory hunting, she commandeers the 100 year old Juggernaut freighter once it enters orbit, boarding with security militia she heads directly to Orion in hopes of getting there first!

At deep listening station Gammer Epsilon, Lt Satie is left flabbergasted at the logistical magnificence of Admiral Nechayev as the brand new fleet tanker Kraken arrives flanked by mythical class fleet auxiliaries.

As the Jovian comes into range of the station, she casts a huge shadow. The fleet has arrived at Epsilon! Lt Satie is busy calling the senior duty officer out of his cabin, when the vox comms light up with Grand Marshal Tiberius demanding finial supply before venturing into the badlands.

Yes ladies and gentlemen as you will have guessed this week I have lost the plot a little!!!! Hope you have enjoyed this weeks post.
