Gamma wing was waiting patiently near the jump point for any ships to arrive. The SOF didn't have clear data about the time of arrival but it has setup the fleet to intercept the convoy. Suddenly a new contact appeared on radar. A small transport ship have appeared out of hyperspace and began to approach the node. "This is gamma we got eyes on contact, moving in 10 clicks and closing , vectoring on the node, moving for scanning". The fighter carefully approached the ship from the side as not to be noticed visually. "Opening presents" he said over the comm and the metal cover of the Eezo container opened. The sensors indicated a slight power fluctuation inside the ship "Bingo, this is gamma wing the ship is not armed and not guarded, closing on the node"
"Copy that gamma" said Atreus control "Sir we have a lightly guarded ship approaching the node" "Smells foul, could be a trap, send in Assault Alphas and Betas to disable that ship and bring the shuttles in immediately, no time to waste, keep the fleet on standby in case it is a trap". "This is Atreus control to assault team the target arrives at the 3rd jump point, move in to intercept quickly, get in, unload ammunition, board, get out"
The fighters are now going to the designated position, and truth to be told I don’t think a fleet of dreads will make there on time , this is gonna make things a lot more interesting than just grab and run
. Yea as a GM you can say you have uber fast dreads and that you have Intel on the ship all along as if you knew which transport out of all could carry it but it won't be as interesting as hunting it down from a new adversary isn't ?
, there is no universal ship system, I call my dreads destroyers from time to time cosue I like how it sounds, others refer to them as battlecruisers and so on ...
