<> ISD-II AVENGER <>
Flagship of the 1st Imperial Expeditionary Force
Ultor Imperium | Avenger of the Empire
Commanding Officer: GENERAL Lucidius Hale
The mighty
Avenger exited hyperspace over the Red Planet once known as Sartinaynian, now known as Bastion. The crew onboard the Avenger was looking forward to a short stand-down period where duty sections would be cut down to their minimal in-port requirement. Hale would be busy however, as a new ship would be added to his command, along with a fresh wing of TIE Advanced starfighters. Bastion itself was now a burgeoning fortress, as many facilities not present when Hale departed were now fully completed. With the impressive ISD-II
Chimeara looming over the planet, combined with the space defense platforms, the lower orbit of Bastion looked like the hard target it should be.
"General, the TIE Advanced fighters are looking really good. A brilliant selection if I may say so myself. They are very balanced fighters," commented Commander Kraken.
"Indeed; and well within our general operating budget. All we need now are some stormtroopers and this star destroyer will be the most fearsome warship in the galaxy," replied Hale.
"Yes... but perhaps with your leadership our Fleet Troopers may be all we need."
Hale nodded. His commander was right. A general's presence on the battlefield often exuded a elevated sense of power and combat effectiveness. Perhaps the Fleet Troopers would be the shock troops he needed for a full-scale invasion.
"It also appears with your appointment to General, the Imperial Council has extended your command over a StarGalleon."
"Yes, the
Espada is a fine addition to this fleet. Do you have any suggestions for its commanding officer?"
"Actually sir I was hoping I could nominate myself. While I have enjoyed my time onboard the
Avenger, I believe it's time for my own command," replied Kraken.
Hale raised a brow, "My good man, the
Espada would be a step down for you. You deserve to command a Victory Star at least, but with the way this war is going I can understand your position. You will need to complete one commanding officer tour before being selected for captain, so perhaps this would be best for your career," commented Hale.
"Those were my thoughts exactly sir," replied Kraken.
"Very well. Have one of their shuttles pick you up whenever you're ready. It was a pleasure having you onboard, Commander."
Kraken saluted Hale, "For the Empire, sir", and then departed.
Hale looked around the sparse bridge, wondering which of his staff he would select for Executive Officer, but also enjoyed the idea of not having one for a while.
Lieutenant Winston approached Hale with a datapad, "Here are the ComScan logs from the last mission, sir, they need your review."
Hale signed off the logs and handed them back to Winston, "good work, Lieutenant. Dispatch mobilization orders to the Fleet. In 24 hours I want all stations ready for mission. It's time to move out."
"Right away; Where are we headed, sir?"
"It's time we put a little pressure on this galaxy. We have another Stronghold on Wayland currently being fortified, which has extended our reach to the doorstep of the Core Worlds. It's time to push further in..."
"Very well, sir, I'll dispatch your orders immediately..." Winston said, with a slight smile. While most Zeltrons were passive and hedonistic, Elena Winston was just as hedonistic, only in ways most would find strange. She got pleasure not only from physical intimacy, but also from combat and conquest. Power turned her on more than anything, and so the thought of conquering another planet almost made her blush.
