The Kalish Collective consists of about a dozen systems. About 60 years ago, the Kalish attacked the United Planets, a large mainly human controlled star nation. The Kalish are a proud and war-like race who had subjugated at least two other alien races. But the United Planets were different. They controlled more than 4 times as many systems as the Kalish, were industrially powerful, and just as skilled in warfare as the Kalish. After a short war the Kalish surrendered fearing an invasion of their home world. This was done not because of cowardice on part of the Kalish but to allow them to regroup and develop a new war plan. Limited trade is allowed with the United Planets but all ships must be carefully searched before they are allowed in UP space.
Kalish space is connected to the UP space via the Ares Cluster, a rich group of systems that the Kalish would love to get their hands on. But the border is heavily fortified.
The United Planets are currently at war with a large empire called the Ghoal. Kalish spies note that forces are being pulled from the Ares Cluster to aid the fight with the Ghoal. It is also believed that the Ghoal are winning the war!
Recently a new Hyperspace Connection was discovered leading to System A from Kalish controlled space. The system is lifeless with a brown dwarf for its star. But it allows access to the Haskins Corridor an important supply and trade route that connects the main body of the UA with the Ares Cluster.
If the Haskins Corridor can be closed off it would give the Kalish an opportunity to conquer the Ares Cluster and deal a severe blow to the United Planets war effort with the Ghoal. Unable to fight a two front war the United Planets would quickly sue for peace or at the best collapse under the strain.
Your forces will conduct a surprise attack into the Haskins Corridor. You will close the trade route through the Corridor and destroy any opposition. Once in control of the Sector you will prevent any relief of the Ares Cluster by the United Planets. A offensive will also begin by our forces to conquer the Ares Cluster. Destruction of the United Planet merchant shipping is a high priority.
Strategic Map Key
Red System A is controlled by the Kalish. It is from here that you will launch your attack on the Haskins Corridor!
Green Systems are UP controlled with some sort of UP presense in the system.
Grey Systems are basically empty systems. Though pirates are believed to operate from them.
Olive Systems have small human settlements in them that are not part of the United Planets. These systems are called the Backwater Worlds. These settlements are normally small fringe groups who want to run things their own way. There is some trading with UP but mainly they just want to be left alone. Some pirate activity is believed to also come from these systems.
The Brown System is the homeworld of the Krell, an xenophobic race which while not hostile is very reclusive. While they do trade with the UA they do not allow ships to land on their planets and any use of their Hyperspace Connections is heavily taxed
INTEL Report
1. Pirates Thought not powerful in themselves and not organized they do pose a threat to civilian UP commerce in the sector.
2. Ghoal There is no Ghoal presence within 30 Hyper Connection jumps of the Haskins Corridor (thats 10 turns of fast ship movement) and the systems between are heavily patrolled by UP forces. There is no Ghoal-Kalish contact.
3. Krell Though not overtly hostile to the UP, they are beligerant. Are know to have a good sized standing fleet. There is no Krell/Kalish diplomatic contact.
4. Ares Cluster There are at least two other star nations in contact with the Ares Cluster. But they would have to fight through any defenses in the Ares Cluster to reach the Haskins Corridor.
-The Vanti A Insect-like race of religious fanatics. The Vanti seem more concerned with putting down fringe groups within their own race than with dealing with aliens. The Kalish have limited contact with the Vanti. The Vanti have a nonagression treaty with the United Planets.
-Ji-Ku-Ve A race of 9 foot tall furry yeti like creatures. They reproduce quickly and have been know to move into contested systems with swarms of colony and warships. These Ji-Ku-Ve swarms are a danger to unprotected worlds. They are always looking to expand into habitable systems. The Kalish has fought off several Ji-Ku-Ve swarms in the past 100 years.
