TASK FORCE QUATTRO"Moff Kaffe, the Trade Federation has rallied its fleet, we hit the hornet's nest!"
Elsewhere, the bridge of the
Cortado rocked as multiple vollies of turbolaser blasts impacted the ship.
"Dammit, more shields!" shouted the captain.
"It's too late, sir! Systems are critical. We have an antimatter containment breech!"
The
Cortado's captain stepped onto a holopad to send a final message to the task force. "Don't forget to tip your bar----" and then there was silence. Suddenly, the VSD
Cortado exploded, as it was unable to repel the overwhelming firepower of the Federation. The handful of TIEs and Skiprays also fell to enemy fire.
Back onboard the
Espresso, Moff Kaffe stepped away from the viewport and back to a tactical display. Grinning, he spoke to his protege, "Captain Draven, remember that there are advantages and disadvantages in a tight fleet formation. Although you can leverage firepower in some sectors, your whole fleet can become exposed to overlapping fields of fire if your adversary spreads out. The Federation is about to get an object lesson in this..." Moff Kaffe then touched the tactical display to create a temporary waypoint. "Between us and the rebels-- excuse me, the Republic forces -- this sector has maximum exposure."
Draven nodded, "... and that's exactly where PBC
One and
Two are."
"Bingo," the Moff replied. "This will probably be our last shot, so make the order."
"Yes, m'lord. Thank you."
Captain Draven stepped over to the comm center and delivered orders to the task force. As the good captain was doing his duty, Moff Kaffe quietly exited the bridge and made his way to a stealth escape pod, abandoning the fight.
