Because the Vetarons didn't destroy the Tau'ri nation, we can use the 125km railgun!   Also, as Soverign poses a threat to the galaxy, (In the form of summoning the Reapers) We must either destroy him and the entire Reaper fleet, or get them to attack the Riftwalkers.

The Undying.

In Christian Demonology, Cocytus is the ninth circle of Hell and the frozen prison of Satan. Similarly, in Greek Mythology, Cocytus is a river in the Greek Underworld flowing into the river Acheron.

The Undying.

*HCN Amnuul refuses all pleas for diplomacy. He propagates messages of proof to all UGA citizens that supports the cause of the war and the "justification" of violence against "traitorous allies". The UGA Fleet Wipes out the IEN fleet attacking the southern front , as well as the Ashi forces around Earth, iommediately after it propogated it's MLAPF (Mining Laser Absorbtion/Propogation Field). At the final Earth day, the battle at Ki-ono is about to commence, a conquest to wipe out the Ildiran with 1/5 of the UGAN fleet. From the brige of the new Founder Class flagship, similar to the Obsidian, High Chancellor Amnuul watches as his fleet jumps out of hyperspace...*

CDR Hammel: "3..2..1..Jump drives cut, we've arrived at Ki-ono, sir."

HCN Amnuul: "Form a line around Ki-ono...we will demolish their entire fleet..."

"Sir!! Hyperspace distortions detected. HDIS has confirmed Ildiran ships jumping in..."

"ALL SHIPS! ready your weapons!"

"Aye, sir!"

*3/4ths of the entire IE Royal Navy have arrived on the opposite side of Ki-ono. The 1/5th of the UGAN fleet sent to Joplin dwarfs it, being almost twice the IEN's fleet size, and more than twice as powerful when it comes to weaponry and shields. As the two sides near, Emperor Caedus orders all weapons on stand-by, and delivers a message to HCN Amnuul, a final attempt toward finding peace*

Caedus: "You accuse not only us, but the Ashi as well of crimes you have no proof we did."

Amnuul: "Our actions are justified. You kidnapped and killed the entire Shnizel bloodline. Johnson, James, even No-"

"We would not do such a thing!"

"Bullshit! You shall face the wrath of the UGA. The entire Galaxy will-"

CDR Hammel: "Sir! HDIS has picked up unknown ships entering the vicinity"

"IEN!?"

"...no...Hydrogue, and one of our own...It's the Dengora!"

you...

"We're being hailed!"

"Jam their transmissi-"

"Too late sir!"

"DAMN!.......YOU DARE SHOW YOUR FACE HERE AGA-!"

*Both the UGA and IE are hailed. A face appears on the comm screen...*

*...it is Johnson...*

"Silence..."

Amnuul: "...you...no....it cant be...."

CDR: "Honerable Johnson...sir...we thought..."

"You thought wrong. I have come here to negotiate peace..."

Caedus: "We were told you were killed...by terrorists..."

"Ah, old friend. This rusty Admiral ain't gonna die that easily. However I cannot believe you, lesser my own people, were fooled by traitorous lies..."

Caedus: "......Johnson...It really is you...I would never forget that tone of voice: Calm, calculating, wise."

Amnuul: "...Is this another one of your tricks, Caedus?"

Caedus: "what? You accuse me yet again!? You should know better than me that IS John..."

"Lies! Do not listen to him! You are lying yet again! Another fake, and another reminder why we should kill you-"

Johnson: "Wrong. This is no lie. You have been playing the entire galaxy into believing that the Vetaron were fully responsible for the Murder of James, and the abductin of Noobis. Then, when the Vetaron were defeated, you put the blame on the Ildiran and Ashi. A scapegoat. a plaw, a lie, to justify war. YOU are the traitor of the UGA. Not Noobis, nor I. So what did they promise you? The Vetaron: Ultimate power? the galaxy? wealth? an empire-"

"STOP THIS PROPOGANDA RIGHT NOW-"

"No. You are the one spreading the propoganda. Trying to destroy all other nations to become the Earth Empire. How can you lead a people when you aren't being truthful? Like how you stole the WMD from Vetar. You told our people that the Ildiran stole it. How could you make your own people believe that lie? I know both leaders, and Caedus is a good ally, a great friend, and a fellow comrade. I would never lie to my people, and never declare war on my friends & allies..."

"THATS BECAUSE YOU WERE NEVER ME!!!!!!!"

*a brief moment of silence*

"DO NOT BELIEVE A WORD THEY SAY! ALL BATTERIES OPEN FIRE ON THAT SHIP!"

*another brief moment of silence*

"DID YOU HEAR ME COMMANDER!? DO NOT DEFY MY ORDER!!!"

"Negative, sir..."

"WHAT!!!???"

"Sir..." *walks up to Amnuul. The bridge door opens, revealing two guards, meanwhile all bridge personell leave.*

"-By the authority of the United Galactic Allience-"

"NO!"

"-I am placing you under arrest for high treason against the UGA, and war crimes under Article 6 Section 1 of the Treaty of Tibalt; Assasination charges of the first degree-"

"NOO!!!"

"-for the Assasination of HCN James Shnizel; Conspiracy charges with the Vetaron Confederacy, and the attempted murder of High chancellor Noobis and-"

*Amnuul breaks free of the hold of the guard to the master control pannel..*

"I WILL NOT HAVE ALL I'VE WORKED FOR BE DESTROYED!!! DIE!!!"

"No! stop him-"

*Amnuul fires the main Ion beam cannon towards the Dengora...*

*A flash of light. A Hydrogue Battleship quickly moves into the line of fire of the Ion beam. Due to the special beam-reflactive material the Hydrogue implement in their ships the majority of the beam was deflected, but at a cost. The Hydrogue ship, Ironically with the Hydrogue envoy, Kii-ath, on it, was critically damaged, for the energy to deflect at leats half of the beams power was enough to punch a hole in the zero X core. A plasma beam from an IEN battlecruiser strikes the brige of the Founder-class vessel, killing Amnuul in the process.*

Noobis: "Kii-ath!!"

Kii-ath: Do not worry....our souls will return to our home galaxy, where we will live with our ancestors in harmony, watching time flow as observers. That is what we believe....You have been a good friend to us, and this is how we repay you. We Hydrogue are guardians of life, that is our purpose. Our scrolls tell us we exist to help societies like yours survive, and thrive on untill the universe deems it necesarry to end their lives, their existence. We believe all species have a purpose. Humanity's purpose is imperative to the universe: to exist untill the universe is nothing but energy...

"...why?"

We believe there is a god. there are numerous gods, and at once, they were all a part of a great society, spanning their entire universe. when their universe was dying, they decided to move on to a new universe...

"trans-dimentional beings?"

Yes. this is what the riftwalkers are. But their species is young, naieve, much like your species. They found a way to move between plains of existence too early in their time. They became crazed, power-hungry, spoiled and stubborn, much like a youngling given the position to rule an entire country...this ambition is why they srive to repeat this rift process... to train against a war against gods...

"No..."

Do not fret, Noobis. for this will take an entire Universe's lifetime before it ever starts. That is where humanity comes in. You must destroy the riftwalkers...

"I see"

At this time in space, you are billions of years away from having the slightest chance of defeating the riftwalkers. But there will come aday when your people shall meet on the outer plane of existence, and a great war will erupt for the fate of existence itself. Your people shall even meet the god of this universe, itself. Fight alongside him. He, too, is a watcher. one who starts the process of life, and watches, never interfering for only a few times. Your people will evolve. You will become those trans-dimentional beings that dominate outer space-time. Your people will eventually become individual gods themselves. This is how all gods are made...

"how do you know this...are you...?"

Hehehe.......You already know...

*A smile crawls over Noobis' face*

The core will overload soon. this is goodbye....good luck, Noobis. And may hope forever be your guide through the future...

*it is only then that he realised that all this time, time had slowed down to a near halt. The Hydrogue Ship explodes in a briliant explosion that looked like a small supernova, a pallete of green, light blue, and white.*

"Hope."

"Hope."

"Hope......"

Afterword, the Ildiran Empire, UGA and all allies signeded the Treaty of Ki-ono, forever ensuring peace forever (or at least for a good thousand years or so...). It was agreed that the Territory gained by the UGA, Ashi and Ildiran, would become a new independant nation called the Alphoran Republic Allience. The Hydrogue returned to their galaxy, along with re-aquiring territory within the Milky way. Noobis Delaron Shnizel was elected High Chancellor of the UGA, with (again...) Johnson as his permanent Minister of War and Security. The WMD recovered from Vetar was moved from it's secret location on Luna and dropped into a black hole, which lead to an area far outside any galaxy. A new word was stitched onto the UGA flag...

Hope...

(This is the end of the Milky Way Campaign. Time to move to the Andromedda Campaign)

-THE END! n00b!

P.S. The last post was long, and it may have a lot of grammatical errors in it.

plus, should the Andrommeda Campaign be years before, or after the Milky Way campaign?

-Nooby!

question: how were the Athena Stealth Cruisers detected, Hmm?  The interference from Earth's gravity makes sensing them gravitically impossible, and essentially all other forms wouldn't work anyway.  Its stealth systems defeat IR, LADAR, RADAR, Visual, and its emissions are nil when stationary, as they were when in orbit.    The blockade was never meant to actually win the war, just force a cease-fire.  destroying the X-303s is possible, I understand, but it is nearly impossible to blow up an Athena, because you have to find it first.  and the fleet wouldn't exactly sit around and let themselves be blown out of the sky

And how, may I ask, does the anti-planetary mining laser field work? (besides, it's not a mining laser anymore, not since the Darksaber IIs started rolling off the assembly line - it has been altered for pure military purposes, and is the same as light from the sun, frequency-wise.  this makes it impossible to block, except through massive black-hole size gravitic forces, which would pull earth into it as well)

@undying: where's the Ashi Sultanate in the Pegasus Galaxy?  I said we would join

SDD (spatial distortion detecter). Used to find spatial distortions that may interfere with a ship in any way: Slight gravitational change, oscillations made by cloaked objects, EM pulses, radiation, vibrations, anything that could lead to any evidence of a spatial anomalee. It is used by scout frigates and cruisers. plus, we traced both your communication & jamming signals, and traced them to each ship's possible location. We destroyed a good number of them, some ran away. plus we had a number of probes in a grid, all cloaked, with SDDs, forming sort of a multi-layerd SDD field....

As for the MLAPF, it works sorta like the Hydrogue material does. it absorbs the energy like a solar panel, except different. A laser is light, i guess. Focused light. the propogation part is that it "reflects" some of the laser. The field cannot absorb all of the laser.

plus...there have been light-bending gravity generators made before (not by UGA, of course). Doesn't matter, now. We are at peace...unless you really want to disrupt that peace which, allegedly to which you agreed to, the treaty ensured we would have, and if any of us tried to disrupt that peace, the alliance will act swiftly to stop any further conflict...

Anyway...you should...uhh...you should get those chinks worked out...

btw, i may send a scouting party to Andrommeda. We found a black hole that leads there...

-Peace, noob

gravitational effects are small enough that they don't go for but a few hundred kilometers (relatively an inch in space), and vibrations: none!  the vacuum of space cannot transmit vibrations.  it is not a star wars type cloak, but instead, it cancels out any EM radiation coming toward it - so it looks like a black spot.  which there are enough of in space that another few frigate sized holes would go unnoticed.  the very nature of the Athena system for which the cruiser is named is such that it cancels out any radiation emmited, including its own.

jamming signals were untraceable, as they were canceled out as they canceled out earth's signals.  there was no need for comms until the deadline was near, so none were transmitted. 

to block the laser, you would have to find out which direction it was coming from.  nigh impossible, as the Darksaber II utilizes the same technology as the Athena stealth system.

and a fleet of the size of mine would easily overwhelm almost any force.  The antimatter torpedoes are extremely powerful, as they contain a piece of solid antimatter suspened inside a standard matter sphere.  when it strikes an object, the antimatter strikes the standard matter and results in a violent explosion of immense proportions.  that's how antimatter works in real life.

and I'm not attempting to disrupt the peace, just trying to find how you supposedly destroyed my fleet.  and possibly reorganize events so that it was not destroyed.  as I said, Earth had a week, and (i think) Johnson arrived before the time limit.

Don't you mean the Andromeda Galaxy?

It's spelt with a single-m rather than a double-m.

The Undying.

Again, we destroyed a "Good number" of them, not really a majority, nor all. Of course, your ships would not attack, for that would have revealed their position. Plus, if the UGA really went to war with an enemy with that kind of technology, wouldn,t we have found a countermeasure for them before we went to war with them? We may be humans, but we aren't that rash. When we made a treaty with the two nations two hundered years ago, we of course freely traded schematics of all our ships. Unless you made these ships prior to the eight-month war and were able to mass-produce those ships (the war started relatively quick, the UGA did more of a "Shock and Awe" approach), we would have had the schematics, and weaknesses, to All ships, although, it was hard to find a counermeasure for your Athena and Darksaber-II ships. You really went out of your way to make it undetectable, and yet powerful at the same time. However, the Vetaron were close to finding a way to countermeasure your ships, before we attacked them. Remember, we took many things from the Vetaron: Tactics, schematics, the rift-opening WMD, all of that, including Intelligence. They did alot of research into the new Athena and Darksaber-II classes. Thank them for the countermeasures we employed on your ships. The SDD? Vetaron tech. The MLAPF & MLAPS? Vetaron (the Hydrogue had it, too.). We also got better Guass Cannon tech, Particle beam tech, Armor & Shield tech, GUARDIAN-MIS, Hyperdrive Upgrades, more efficient Pulse engines, and Fusion & Antimatter core tech.

We went to war becouse Amnuul made the UGA believe that you and Darth were responsible for the Assasination of James Shnizel and the kidnappings of Noobis and Johnson. His real intentions were to take over the entire galaxy, and re-establish the Earth Empire as the only power in the Milky Way. This would be bad beacause the UGA was built from the ashes form the Human Civil War, which divided the Earth Empire into multiple factions. The war ended when the Earth was taken by a number of factions, called the United Earth Liberation Coaliton. Many more Nations became states of UELC, and forming the UGA. Amnuul was a descendant of the Royal family, and wanted nothing more but to be the ruler of the entire galaxy. Understand, You both were a threat to the UGA, or at least, to Amnuul, so he used secret documents taken from the Vetaron to make sure you were no longer a threat, which even with the countermeasures, you still were a threat. With a little more planning, and a bit more technology, the UGA would've become another Vetaron.

Finally, Amnuul hired his most trusted subordinate that should the time come that the Ashi would destroy Earth, that he activate the WMD. But only if they were about to destroy Earth. Thus, it would look as if the Ashi stole the WMD and set it off, convincing all allies that the Ashi were "guilty", making the UGA look like heroes. Amnuul was a very deceptive man. He was depicted as a "savior" to the UGA...

Understand now, that the UGA is at peace with it's allies, and we disposed the WMD into the depths of space. However we will keep the countermeasures for if another unknown enemy were to pop up with the same cloaking technology.

this is without a doubt the longest post ive seen from a thread starternot counting the spammer that had end;ess 's

Now, the other governments wouldn't be keen to hear this, but the ships wouldn't be known of.

(and they may be powerful, but as I said, their shields are weak.  the trouble is finding them)
