[QUOTE="Wilphe, post: 2873096, member: 8221"] 03:35 223/991 There's the usual slight, weightless feeling as the Vykris emerges from jump and then it's over. It looks like Trelene plotted the jump just right and you are headed straight for the main planet with little need for any course corrections save deceleration. The scan, which has hitherto remained blank and useless during for the last week comes on line and gives a read out of what's in system. For starters, nothing immediatly hostile. A few convoys of fuel tenders are making their way to and from the gas giants under System Defence Boat escort. There's about half a dozen starships of various types heading too or from jump, including two large bulk carriers of 20-25,000 tons that are probably packing grain or other bulk produce. Orbiting Shirgegge itself are two large warships and attendent escorts. One is K'kree vessal designed to address their racial claustrophobia - a large, saucer shaped vessal which identifies as the 10,000 ton Kahk'rik'kreng Class Courier [I]"Lashing Tail"[/I]. The other is an Imperial 8,000 ton Plata Class Fast Escort Cruiser, [I]"Coronel"[/I]. Four 400 ton Patrol Vessals fill out the Coronel's flotilla as close escort and liason. [/QUOTE]
