Investigate Materials: This plan relies on directing large numbers of electrons across large spaces. Using the dwindling stocks of metals and semiconductors in the cargo vessel's holds, figure out which one(s) have the properties I need.

Attempt small-scale version of the technology: A really short-ranged handgun-sized weapon. Preferably capable of leaving someone twitching on the ground for about a minute. Namely, long enough for a Night Raider to tie and gag them.

[Smoke Mirrors]

When the scouts get near the planets, my ships will begin stealth procedures and wait for a bit so if they are discovered it will not draw fire to the scouts, then they will begin moving around the planets in order to observe the surface and what buildings and ships they have. If they are discovered by the empire or rebels, surrender peacefully and say that they were merely making sure the airspace was safe for a diplomatic ship that will be coming later and would be more than happy to wait as guests until that ship arrives. If discovered by pirates, begin battle actions, send message to the navy to begin the attack, and try to fly away and return after the navy has arrived.

Spoiler: Amelia; Quartermaster of the Randiri Fleet {Character Sheet and Resource Summary} (click to show/hide)

Name: Amelia
Race: Felis
Department: Government/Navy
Role: Central/Executive Officer [Quartermaster]
Skill: Intelligence Agent -- Skilled in various forms of combat and communication, and personally excelling in the art of logistics, Amelia has the ability and conditioning for training and leading others, alongside holding her own in personal battles, either physically or socially. Her skill focuses on economic frameworks, and connections between people and the driving force of a stellar-fleet: its resources and tradeable currencies.
Liability: Naval Command -- Ships, specifically those in space combat or otherwise (non-atmospheric combat), have never been her forte and her skills as a commander or officer for space fleets have been only as far as reaching the baseline standards for officers. While her acumen in wits and communication fulfill and excel in handling and being with generally and kind of personnel, she is averse towards impersonal control.

Spoiler: Ship: RTS PL-1 Tiamat (click to show/hide)

Originally designated as a Passenger Liner, this Randiri Troop Ship has been refitted for military purposes, specializing as a training grounds and logistics ship for the Randiri land-based armies and shipboard marines. Unarmed, yet openly a multi-purpose design, it retains its former name and designation in honor of Randiri heritage and history, for what was once a planet-based Republic.

The Tiamat houses a crew complement of hundreds, with a mix of organizational staff and supporting elements making up the majority of its running crew. Its many luxury decks have been refurbished into facilities designed for training and retentional aid for individual personnel, both in fielding the needs of the military in the quality of its troops, and in providing wholesome care for post-battle experience. Several suites dedicated to recreational pursuits have been remade, redesigned, or improved to fit into the working model of wholesome healthcare, ranging from physical to mental health facilities to aid those honorably discharged or otherwise deciding to move from the needs of combat; to assist any processes ranging from resocialization to refinement of other skills and talents. Its extensive passenger bays that were once used to ferry people and supplies were converted to extensive hangar bays, used to ferry cargo, manpower, and supplies--providing a holding ground for multiple cargo ships and shuttlecraft; in extreme measures, all these can be used to aid in boarding actions or other transport methods than resource organization.

Given its original design, the Tiamat was left with a difficult decision to either compartmentalize much of its former services and facilities to house shipboard weaponry and subsequent storage, or to refocus on its potential within the current fleet. At current, it has much potential in the way of shipboard upgrades, and performs on par with the common Passenger Liner in terms of speed and internal quality. It currently possesses a lightly shielded but unarmored hull, alongside strong sensors comparable to a civilian sensor ship, and its engines have been modified to achieve fast maneuvering among many other miscellaneous characteristics, though with much room for planned modifications.

As multiple departments of the Randiri fleet scrambled to their objectives, Amelia counterchecked what could be possible within the fleet itself--this was a start for expansion and efficient use of the fleet's resources on a bigger scale, and given that she and her crew were handling thousands of lives in their processing, she wanted to ensure that this would be streamlined for greatest effectiveness.

It would help to get scouting information soon; with all the operatives focusing on their objectives, she could take her ship and crew to scout out minerals and other precious resources in the area.

Assess the overall quality of our recon and fleet supplies; focus on military quality this turn. {Try making a boost for boarders}
(Otherwise: Just note down where I can send in improvements; I'm aiming to check basic needs from rationing to materials for our science departments [abstracted between 'rare to abundant'] before doing trade runs in the next few turns)

  Part 2
Khan: Roll result: 5(4+1): Your scans reveal that there are 4 raiders, and what appear to be 2 captured cargo ships. One of scanners tells you that they discovered:
Location of the pirate base
Hacked their communications
What do you choose?
 
Glass: Roll: 1. Your wings flutter as you place the “transfite” crystal into place on the copper armband. Your assistants try to tell you that it is merely plastic and a placeholder until you get some actual crystals, though you huff and shush them. You focus intently on the box across the room, trying to move it with your mind for several hours before deciding it must be the design of the copper that is stopping you.
 
2nd Roll: 5 You modify the copper design, and you feel a little something in your mind. It’ll probably require more of these crystals, you decide. (Need actual transfite crystals and/or psionic users to proceed further. -9 modifier)
 
 
Madman: Roll:5. You set up a conductor in one of the large cargo holds, and successfully discover the materials you need (Can choose what you build it out of)
2nd Roll:1 You modify a laser pistol to use the materials to attempt to shock someone, but it unfortunately kills the volunteer. (-2 modifier left)

Smoke Mirrors: (Not really sure which planets you are talking about). Roll: 4. As your ships move into position, you receive an alert that 2 raider ships are leaving the asteroids of the Marien 9. You would be able to attack them with only your ship and one other Raider, do you choose to engage?
 
Tiruin: The fleet has access to
Metal: Iron, steel, titanium, the stuff of which starships are forged and weapons crafted: 2500
Non metal inorganics: plastics, wood, crystal: 1000
Organics: Blood, flesh, crops.: 200
Food: People eat this: A month’s supply
 
Generally the fleet wants to have 6 month’s supply in food. It requires a 1000 metal and 500 inorganics to make a frigate.
 
Roll: 2. You attempt to take your ship out scanning, but before you get very far, your sensors pick up 2 pirates coming towards your ship! (Yeah, these are the same as SM’s).What do you do?
 
Blood Librarian: Roll:1. Your fleet approaches the capital planet. Your scan pick up 7 ships move to intercept you. 1 battlecruiser, 2 cruisers, and 4 frigates move in envelope you. You open a transmission to them, and a human admiral appears on the screen before you. You can see him twist his face in what you assume is disgust.
   “Ugh, a nonhuman. Leave this system immediately, or you will be destroyed!”
You attempt to negotiate, mentioning that your people need supplies. He takes this as your people are weak and desperate. He orders you to prepare to be boarded, and that you best surrender if you have any desire to live. What do you do?

Spoiler: The RFS Unadvisable Pursuit (click to show/hide)

A custom mad-science vessel if ever there was one, this freighter grew old in the hands of a rich trader not too interested in upkeep. It was saved from the scrap processors, however, when it was decided that the more...volatile experiments carrier out by scientists ought to be done elsewhere. It is almost seven hundred meters long, and is outfitted with research labs, vehicle manufactories, workshops galore, and plenty of materials, as well as bank of mining lasers and equipment.

To the other assistants: "Well, umm, yes, that can happen. Somebody get that man's body over to Medical, please. Heh. At least we figured out that the ditanium works pretty well for this. Would've been bad if we had to start competing with Glass over the transfite stores or something... Get on comms with the Fleet, the Diplomatic Department, and the Night Raiders, see if there's anything they need from . If not, I'll be prepping Bay 11."
Eglan preps Bay 11 with LOTS of insulation, and sets up his array of monitoring devices. (Experiment in preparation for the project, will do next turn, most likely)
Attempt another miniaturized version, but use it against a nonliving target, and by remotely pulling the trigger.

Spoiler:  Exploration cruiser "Erikson" (click to show/hide)

 A large cruiser whose bow bristles with scanner arrays and other systems. Large internal cargo bays allow for prolonged travel and a considerable amount of care is taken in providing crew amenities. As a warship she is undergunned and underarmoured for her size but not hugely, primary weapons consist of large railguns in oddly spiky turrets with additional ballistic and railgun weapons for closer engagements. Numerous scars crisscross the hull that tell of hard fought battles, there is also some evidence of reentry burns on the bow. The bridge appears to not belong to the ship originally.

Hack their communications.

"All hands to battlestations, we're going in. Gunners, target their main drive systems and then their weapons. Prioritise the raider type ships. Lets hear what they are saying. Oh and broadcast an ultimatum; Surrender now pirate scum or be destroyed!"

Keep the survey ships out of the fight and have them try and locate the Pirate base itself. Keep my cruiser outside their range where possible.

Liability:
~Sensitive Implants: Prone to both damage of the digital variety and of the bludgeoning variety to brain case. They don't really "show" in terms of visual looks unless you notice the port on their spine though, most of it is internalized into the Hanarians body.
Forces Under Command: RNV Sinkable, 1 Cruiser, 2 Frigates.
Bar'Quaria stands at an imposing (for his species) 5'9.  However, he is broad-shouldered and very well built, just like the rest of his species. his skin is a fair purple, his eyes beady and black-purple, they almost reflect the light. It is obvious from the way he stands that he must be some sort of authority figure.

If he were to take his excellent set of torso coverings, one would not the metal and implants that cover his spine, ending with a single port on the base of his spine, which can be connected any technology that has a port.

Bar'Quaria Marloss is the admiral of a small fleet of ships, no then a single cruiser, and two frigates while commanding his own Battle Cruiser, the RNV Sinkable.

Spoiler: RNV Sinkable (click to show/hide)

It is notable for being the singular ship salvaged straight from an abandoned shipyard of a dying star system. It was supposed to be a ship of unheralded power with the theoretical ability to supposedly glass planets, but the reality comes far short. The laser that at one point spanned end to end of the ship is now only up to the exterior portions of the front due to the extensive remodeling in its recent past, it could barely pierce an atmosphere now, nevermind scar continents. the rest of the ship did not fare as well in the process of completing it with inferior technology. its other weapons are standard, or even worse than the rest of the fleet, but it is made up for that with ample internal space for ground side operational assets, and is the designated orbital presence, the recovered blueprints even note that the ship could freely enter and exit a Terran Atmosphere if a retrofit on its engines are completed.

the RNV Sinkable is a Siege Cruiser, the main gun could fire upon ships, but it is not as likely to hit as its deck guns. Its main weapon can act as a tactical or strategic strike weapon against planets, but it would be left vulnerable when doing such acts due to its immense power draw. it has ample space for the deployment of ground assets. the space that was once used by its laser was replaced with the support structure and hangar space, in various forms to relieve the otherwise horrific logistical strain that maintaining such a war machine would have.

Marloss immediately initiates a complex maneuver using the drive fields of every single engine of the fleet to move backward as fast as possible while allowing the RNV Sinkable to keep its barrel pointed at the enemy battleship while ordering the gunnery officer to charge the main gun as fast as possible.

Marloss transmits to homefleet that an emergency is occurring at his location, and requests further orders while establishing an open link to Central command, relaying what happens as it happens.

He orders that the communications team transmits an album of pictures of hulked warships, particularly of any noted enemies of the Edmiri Dominion and demand on-screen that the enemy admiral ceases or faces the consequences of failure for firing upon a fleet under the flag of Randeri Republic, a nation that should be by all interests an ally to the Dominion.

If diplomacy fails, disengange from the enemy fleet while ordering the frigates and the cruiser to keep them off of us as we retreat back to the main fleet.

"Already on it Money Penny" (Game Thread, refer to people as their character)

"This is the Valravn to the Umbra, there are two pirate ships, sending you coordinates now, we are going to attack and board them, the later not until we have a safe passageway."

Finishing up his call to the Umbra, James Avalon got to the captains seat. "Procul" he called to the android "combat soon, get ready" and then, after receiving confirmation from the Umbra, he shot off towards the pirates, however, leaving some NR units to gaurd the Athens and pick up equipment.

[Taricus]

"Noted Marloss, moving in to support. Try not to inflame the situation any further."

Admiral Katsuo moves the rest of the fleet to support Marloss' detachment, opening comms with the lead admiral on arrival and attempts to get both sides to stand down.

[chubby2man]

   The Valravn launched the first attack, launching a barrage of missiles that slammed into the leading raider ship. The Night Raider also fired, targeting the second ship.
   James smiled a tight grin. This was going splendidly.
   That would soon change.
   The pirates quickly turned to meet these new threats, and launched a counterattack of their own. Their missiles slammed into the Night Raider ships, the Valravn taking the worst of it.
   Taking the fight into laser range, laser fire poured across the void of space. The Valravn shook and shuddered, and a massive explosion near blew off the starboard side of the ship. The force of it sent James  stumbling, and sent him careening into a console, gashing his head. He slowly rose to his feet, cursing at his skin glowing a bright blue.
 
   The remaining Night raider dodged and weaved it’s best through enemy fire, and its return fire was accurate. It left one pirate near torn in half, and the other disabled.
 
The pirate ships are able to be boarded. The Valravn can send shuttles, and the Night Raider ship and the RTS Tiamat can also choose to send a full complement to either ship.


Marloss orders the fleet to immediately fall back, the fleet begins to turn back and retreat. The Dominion fleet immediately opens fire. You send a communication for them to cease, but they ignore you. You send an emergency message to the fleet, asking for assistance, anything. Admiral Katsuo responds, saying that he is sending the rest of the fleet to assist. However, the fleet is at least 12 hours away.
 
The intense barrage of fire overwhelmed the cruiser, missiles exploded deep in the hull of the vessel, and lasers melting armor. A massive explosion tore the ship apart. Your fleets return fire blew apart a frigate of theirs.
 
Your main gun is charged, and able to be fired. However, if you choose to stay, your ship will probably be destroyed.
 
“Message from the President, sir.” A comms officer shouts.
You put the message through.
“Admiral Marloss, your service to the Randir Republic has been exemplary, and we thank you and all the members of your fleet. This is a time of desperation for our people, and we cannot afford to appear weak to these people.”
“Do not surrender.”
Escape if you can, but if you must go down, do not go gently. You will be remembered. President Sejanus, out.”

Tactical retreat. maneuver backwards while keeping our weapons pointed at the enemy.

Send a message to the Dominions planet requesting that the rogue admiral or the second in command if the Battle Cruiser is destroyed ceases their madness and falls away from us.

Have the frigates hide behind my warship, maneuvering so that any damage sustained is placed onto our strongest plate armor.

Destroy the enemy Battle Cruiser using long range weaponry.

Once the Battle Cruiser is destroyed, send the frigates out to harass the cruisers, pouring fire on them as well as keeping as far away from the frigates as possible.

If it looks like the Frigates will be lost, send them to ram the Cruisers and board the ship.

Control the entire fleets, or at least the Battlecruisers individual profile so that any damage is mitigated by maneuvering so that fresh armor plates are exposed to enemy fire rather than compromised hull.
