Soda Wars: The Empire Strikes Back

Alright, New Soda War topic, old one hit 200.
-------
Jimbob's fleet, severely battered, doesn't give up. The torpedoes start hitting the Lime Cruisiers, bombarding their sheilds. Jimbob swerves his Seirra Mist Crusier to the side and begins firing Rj Missles and lasers at the side of the Blue Suede Cat , causing serious damage to it's sheilds. The war continues...

Mac takes his main cruiser from the battle with Jimbob's fleet, and directs saturation fire at all of the fighters in the holographic fleet. Some of them explode. Within a couple of minutes, all of ZenMasta's remaining fighters have been forced to retreat.

You got some mine damage in during the main war a bit back, yes.

Meanwhile, Mac orders his fleet to close to point blank range with Jimbob's shattered fleet and hammer them with eveything. Jimbob's ships rapidly begin disappearing, though he does pick off a few Lime Cruisers...

After returning from his vacation on Capella, ares wanders past Jimbob in his plight and orders his fleet begin attacking the DP Rebels. The reinforcements help turn the tide of the battle, and it is now looking as though the fleet of DP rebels will soon retreat...

Ordering a breif cease fire, Captain Ares orders the crosshairs of all his ships focused upon the flag ship of the DP fleet. In a blaze of explosive carbon, the flag ship is destroyed and the remaining ship have no options but stay and die or retreat. Half do one, half do the other. Ares's fleet is battered, and suffered massive casualties. Landing on a nearby planet to refuel and refit his ships, ares comes to find he has lost:

7 Roach Juice Cruisers
6 Frigates
2 Six-Pack carriers
25 big-gulp frigates
125 fighters

His fleet in ruins, ares returns to high command to recruit a new fleet. Although captains were reluctant to join in fight against an enemy so powerful, his new fleet consists of:

15 Pepsi Cruisers
100 Pepsi-One frigates
35 Six-pack class carriers
200 Big-gulp frigates
550 Roach Juice Fighters
700 Diet Coke fighters

Come, fellow Americans, and let us scare the Taliban, and all anti-American bigots for that matter, into submission by putting cheap pastic American flags on our SUVs. Surely they will recoil in terror at the very sight.

Er, you can't just unilaterally declare a battle over. Try again.

Also, why would you want Coke fighters in your fleet? They're on my side. 😉

Well ares, that was kind of a one post battle, so I'm not sure how well it will go over. Commodore Pickerel's fleet command ship arrives back at Sol, to aid Insano against any kind of coming counter-offensive. She begins asking him again if some kind of Pepsi superweapon would be possible perhaps a device capable of transforming other liquids into the Pepsi staple?

Meanwhile, reconstruction work is done on the mines so that they can read ship types, as opposed to the more easily changeable transponder codes. And by the way, does that crazy transporting device have unlimited range or what?

Oh yes, and ares, I noticed your missing an l in the word plastic in your signature... for some reason this offends my obsessive compulsive nature.

As we last left our heros, Spacey and Mac, they were engaging upon a Roach Juice fleet.
---------------------

Spacey follows Mac's ship, for Spacey has not been in a serious battle since the Root Beer Emperial Embacy Civil War between the RBEE and the RJE. (A small war, nothing to think about. Ony 132 ships were lost on the RJE side. 4 on the RBEE side. :D)
Spacey has his ship ascend on Jimbob's, firing RBEE 32liter jugs, 2 per 4 seconds. (Which is rapid for that fire power) Once he is close enough, still firing 32liter jugs, he rapid-fires with RB Foam Cannons! (And we all know how much head of foam Rot Beer can give off) The foam almost clogs the thrusters of Jimbob's capital ship. 😄

Thanks for the hand there Jimbob, no matter the results. In future, it would seem we have a better chance at all this if we stick together and support each other... what I did was meant only to be a small raid, but it turned out otherwise, thanks to the impossibly fast respones of mine enemy 😉

Okay, I will go fix the sig...

I guess I don't quite get the whole role-playing thing...

/me ducks away

Oh, and why would coke be on the side of dr. pepper? Is this a battle of flavor or a battle of Pepsi-Cola (the company) versus Coka-Cola (the company)? Because before I tried to invent a Mr. Pibb weapon, but someone said I couldn't because Mr.Pibb tastes like dr. peper, but I cant have coke fighters even though coke tastes like pepsi? I don't quite get it...

Ares, to answer your coke question.... I believe this is more a battle of corporate affiliations, at least that or it seems to be every known soft drink company versus Pepsi. Normally I imagine we would have been able to pull a bit of Coke up on our sides, but Mac joined the game as the head of the "Coke Confederacy" and as he is quite obviously our enemy, I'm afraid Coke is off limits.

Spacey and his crew, entire ship crew, celebrate as Jimbob falls back! (I don't know about Zen though)

"Get me contact with our good friend, Mac!" Spacey says to his communications specialist.
"MAC! Great battle! And to everyone else that helped!" (Sorry, I'm too tired and am working on a report)

Just so you know, I retreated quite a bit ago and am now chumming it up back at Sol with my evil Imperial buddies.

Okay, the "novel" concept isn't going to work out. It's to boring. I have to write stuff like that for Literature classes every day.

The massive fleet prepares to attack Sol. Scouts have been monitoring the planets surface, and one has found some intersting information... Dragon calls a meeting on his headquarters to discuss the matter. While waiting, he AIM's up Spacey and informs him that his name should not be listed under, "OTHER," as The Aurians merged with RBEE several "weeks" ago. Merger deal has been cancelled. All Aurians havbe been informed of this. Normally a kind and hospitable species, all RBEE craft and personal will be treated with utmost hostility, though they will not, at all costs, be attacked. I warned you, Spacey...

Anyone who does not remember the perimiter password for Aurinia, I shall review the list of hints:

  • You learned it from Barney

  • It begins with "P"

  • It is regarded as the "magic" word

  • It contains 5 letters

If you don't get it from that, well, there's nothing I can do to help you. I mean, I practically told you the answer, don't tell me you can't understand... I mean, c'mon, (N)PLEASE!(/B)

Gasp... me has made major grammer error... me will be in trouble at Literature tommorow... Stupid Zen! :mad: 😉

Gasp... How'd you get a -4 (now -3) Karma? You're the laughable, aimable kinda-guy who people would expect to have a 15 karma just for being so nice. Then again, you might be Bin Laden for all Ethel could tell me... What happened? Do tell, do tell!

Well thank you very much for the compliment, its actually quite a short and concise tale. I have now learned that Soviet Mikee does not approve of irrelevant off-topic spamming, and if you'd like to see proof of this, just check the topic he made, and a poll made by Ares further down the line, for hard evidence of my treachery. Oddly enough, my atonement is to post more, but I promise not to abuse the system again.

Meanwhile,on Fanta Command,Fanta Alliance researchers announce that they have completed a new ship class,the Fanta Command Cruiser.
This highly-shielded vessel's Fanta core churns with the colours of all Fantas-
Orange,Lime,Rasberry,Wildberry,Passionfruit and Pineapple.
It's turrets are also now the new wide-mouth variant,allowing highter firing rates.
As a result,the Command Cruiser has about 2.5 times the power availible to it's Multi Flavour Fanta Fusion Turrets(MFFF).
It has also got a large stock of Lime Torpedos,as well as Passionfruit Rockets,and a large Wildberry Beam array.
But it's main weapon is the MFFF Blaster,a cannon which fires a burst of ultra-concentrated MFFF.
It also has an Orange Cruiser's Micro-Fanta Drive,for short in-combat hops.

Research begins on Fanta syrup weapons.
The Command Cruiser is escorted by the new Wildberry Frigates to Palshife,and Fanta shipyards,seeing the effectiveness of the Blue Suede Cat in the Battle of Palshife,begins constructing more Passionfruit Dreadnaughts.

Mr. Moose has been caught by the police (AKA ASW Mods) and has been frozen in carbondioxide until his karma improves. I'm loaded on the ship of Bobo the Bounty Hunter, "Indentured Servant II" because the police sold me to the emipire. The evil emporer wants to convert me to the roach side.
