Horkon: Good job people. The droids have taken the bait. Let's run the gauntlet!
Horkon and the other Jedi lead the enemy fighters through a maze of laser fire from ships of both sides of the fight. Several droid fighters are picked off by their own side while several others are taken out by Republic turrets. Unfortunately, one of the Jedi pilots is killed in the maneuver.

Altessa: "These Jedi are worthy foes, worthy foes indeed."
ooc: I'll have my reinforcements show up when you have yours show up.

ooc: Alright.
ic: Horkon: This is Delta 1 to Corellian Fire. Send in the remaining Troop Carriers!
Transports C-2 through C-8 speed toward the hanger bay of the enemy flagship with their cargo of Republic Commandos.
Horkon: All fighters on me, we protect those transports at all costs!

Comm. Officer: "Admiral, we have enemy transports coming right for us!" Altessa: "Have our ships concentrate fire on those ships! We cannot let them take this vessel ...not intact, at least."

Transport C-5 takes a hit to the main reactor and explodes, sending what is left of it's crew and passengers cartwhelling into space.
Horkon: Tighten up people! That incoming fire is getting thick! Zeta Squad, take out those turrets!
Clone Commander Krayt: Copy that General!
A dozen ARC-170's break formation and dodge incoming fire until they are in range of the turrets.
Clone Commander Krayt: Warheads away!
The clone starfighters empty their payloads of rockets, missiles and torpedoes at the port side turrets of the enemy flagship!
Clone pilot 63/1820: Direct hit!
Clone pilot 24/1834: Comfirmed impact!
Clone pilot 31/2013: We've broken th-AAAGGGGGHHHHH!
Clone Commander Krayt: General, we've lost Zeta 12.

Comm. Officer: "The enemy transports are closing in!"
Altessa: "Tell our transport vessels to dock with us; I think it's just about time to show what we have in those containers."

The surviving transports open fire on the enemy ships hanger bay, destroying any enemy troops, and then land. The hatches drop and commandos start to poor out of the ships.
RC-1134 'Rancor': Move it you maggots!
RC-1192 'Tracker': You heard the man! Move it!
The commandos spread out and secure the bay.
RC-1134 'Rancor': Blow that door!
A demolitions expert places plastic explosives on the hatch.
RC-1136 'Dragon': Take cover!
The hatchway explodes.
RC-1134 'Rancor': Divide and conquer!

Altessa: "Have our transports unloaded their cargo?"
Comm. Officer: "Yes Admiral."
Altessa: "Excellent. Those Protodekas will make short work of those commando units."
Meanwhile, six Droidekas arrive to try to stop the advancing commando units, while a few squads of battle droids and super battle droids attempt to flank the commando units.

ooc: Protodekas are around the size of fighters, that means they cannot fit in the hallways. You are probaby thinking about the Destroyer droids. Besides, the Protodekas are only able to be used on planets, if they were uses on ships, they would tear their own ship apart.
ic: RC-1134 'Rancor': We have Destroyer Droids incoming!
RC-1135 'Hunter': That's not the least of it. We've been flanked!
RC-1134 'Rancor': Gamma Squad, cover our backs! We'll deal with the Droidekas!
RC-1192 'Tracker': Copy that Storm Leader!
Gamma squadron dodges incoming fire and plants explosives on the transport nearest the flanking enemy.
RC-1192 'Tracker': We're all set here Storm Squad! Zulu Squad, take point!
RC-2311 'Ace': Copy that. Alright boys! Light em' up!
Zulu squadron opens fire on the explosives attach3ed to the damaged transport. The ship explodes as the six remaining commando squads enter the corridor in which the destroyer droids had been until they were reduced to slag. The secondary bulkhead closes behind them as the remaining transports erupt from the blast. The resulting explosion tears a gapping hole in the side of the enemy vessel.
RC-1134 'Rancor': Looks like we're stuck here. We need to make our way to the bridge!
Meanwhile the battle in space continues. The Venator Star Destroyer Retriever docks with the Techno Union Starship Gladius and the Separatist crew surrendered.

ooc: They're THAT big?! In that case, I'll have to change what the cargo is. Really, they're the size of a fighter?
The cargo ships supplies of regular droidekas roll their way to where they are needed. A few to the bridge, several to the docking bay.
As the docking bay droids are destroyed, twice as many take their place in the battle, though with all the debris in the bay, flanking will be difficult.
ooc: I'm not happy with this turn of events. The next time we have a fleet engagement, we need to clearly state what can and cannot be done before we fight.

ooc: sorry ic: as the commandos make their way through the endless halls of the enemy cruiser, they are attacked by several more destroyer droids. A total of nine commandos are killed in the flanking action, but the seven remaining troops stay on their mission.

ooc: I hope he's okay.
ooc: Because I do not like giving names to vessels that aren't going to be around for long, I'm just going to give a designation to the new ships. It was very, Very, VERY difficult for me just to name the previous ones. Sorry, but it's not fun for me to name all those ships.
Reinforcement Fleet
4 Punwickna Geonosian Frigates
PF-1 PF-2 PF-3 PF-4
1 Pinnance Geonosian Dreadnaught
PD-1
1 Techno Union Carrier
TUC-1
10 Commerce Guild Support Ships
CG-1 CG-2 CG-3 CG-4 CG-5 CG-6 CG-7 CG-8 CG-9 CG-10
12 Intergalactic Banking Clan Frigates
BC-1 BC-2 BC-3 BC-4 BC-5 BC-6 BC-7 BC-8 BC-9 BC-10 BC-11 BC-12
Let me know if I should alter the number of ships I have, as I tried to balance them with what you have now.

A critical hit is scored on the Altessa's Annihilator, crippling it.
Altessa: "Order all remaining personnel aboard to evacuate this ship! Set the auto-pilot to a large grouping of Republic vessels and then have it self-destruct. That should teach them a lesson."
Altessa makes her way to the remaining docking bays, along with the remaining ship personnel.
ooc: There should still be some time for the remaining commando troopers to get to the bridge to stop this kamikaze attack.

RC-1134 'Rancor': Their abandoning ship!
RC-1136 'Dragon': We're the only organics left aboard.
RC-1192 'Tracker': I have a bad feeling about this. Get to the bridge!
The surviving commandos run through the almost empty cruiser, being ambushed by groups of droids from time to time. Most of the commandos are now dead, that leaves only three of them left alive.
RC-1192 'Tracker': This bucket is set on self destruct. She headed for our fleet. I can't override it. What now?
RC-1137 'Radar': We blow the reactor before it's in range of the fleet.
RC-2311 'Ace': But we're still aboard. Won't we get killed?
RC-1192 'Tracker': It's what we're trained for.
'Radar' hacks into the engine controls and sets the reactor to overload.
RC-1137 'Radar': It's done...
RC-1192 'Tracker': Jango would be proud.
The abandoned cruiser is on a collison coarse with the Republic fleets when the reactor erupts, destroying the Altessa's Annihilator and a Venator Star Destroyer, the Courscanti Gem. The commandos die as soldiers.

Altessa is now aboard the PD-1 (Altessa's Vengeance).
Altessa: "I'll miss the Annihilator. Time to make the Republic pay for that! Have all the ships launch their fighters immedeately!"
