The beam hit the ground near the Mandalore's landing stage as the rain fell, creating mud. The massive beam absorbed the ground literally, and disapated into the earth. Moments later, the ground, superheated with radiation from the blast, erupted in a thermal nuclear explosion, sending a huge cloud of superheated, mud, air and dust up as a blast wave flatened everything in a three click radius. The dust settled and in its place was a gaping crater oozing with molten rock. The rain continued to fall, evaorating in the air as it neared the crater. 23 more shots struck the planet, completely obliterating the landing zone and the surrounding forest. Radioactive fires began to spread, fed by the falling rain creating steaming lumps of ground and huge crators. The shock wave coursed through the ground as the dust plumes, fire waves, and the molten rock rose into the air.

(Not necessarily ignored. I guess you could look at it as disprioritized due to the fact that the same characters you interacted with was attacked and Daran removed from their grasp.
It is only realistic that they prioritize taking on the hunt rather than staying and chatting to your character. If I understood properly, I believe you have had quite the interaction with them troughout the roleplay?
Ignore is a strong word. It is a matter of perspecting and taking events and characteristics into consideration)
Originally posted by The big EHThe turbolasers increase in destructive power when they enter atmosphere, they are not nesessarily nuclear but that is how I described the destruction they caused. I like being imaginative, besides I could remove the dust plums from the post. Anyway... the beams superheated the clouds giving hot rain for a short time, it vaporised the ground turning it to a molten state and superheated the mud so 😛 ))
explain to me how a turbolaser can go nuclear please

"You failed my initiation test even before it started, Daran" She uttered, turing to start at him trough her mask as they kept on walking. She then looked straight ahead, shaking her head "You hold enough power to be worthy my side, but you have yet to amass the remaining aspects. Within time, your place in my design will be brought forth" She finished and kept a blank gaze forward where she walked, as she climbed yet another fallen tree. She turned her head to him narrowly, almost in an analyzing manner. She then turned her face forth again, and she kept doing so along their walk.
"If you can in one guess tell your first fail since we met, then perhaps have I underestimated you" She said, almost in a challenging tone- as she awaited his response and kept on walking.
"I spared the life of the padawan." Daran bowed his head, his eyes flashing from his error. "However, I deemed her not worth my exertion to kill, three inneffective attacks and I punished her carelessness. I would have extinguished her life however it was your appearance that hindered my heeding of the theat I gave her. However, the next time we meet I will not be so forgiving." Daran ran his hand through his soaked hair and turned and gave Banis his own analysing look, though he concentrated on her through the Force he however could not sense her at all. He frowned. "An intresting skill. Hiding your entire being in the Force." Daran glanced at the sky, then opened up his mind to the storm. The rain above them lightened somewhat, however the storm remained around them. He turned back to Banis, his clothes pasted and heavy.
acklay flew her b-wing towards the (banis's ship) and switched to an open channel "hey vassisk you pig, you see that fleet, that'll be the last thing you see, you pathetic excuse for a commander, if Thrawn was here he'd laugh at your very existence" acklay mocked as she drew within close to the ship (arround tractor beam distance)
~~~~~
jacen walked through the forest with 125 troops and corran, while the rest set up temperary base and looked after juno. the airspeeders, TIE-Oppressors and clawcrafts scouted ahead to find the enemy forces
Vassisk glanced out at the B-wing. "Hmm. Pathetic excuse huh?" He turned to the Blue Riots gunners. "Disable that fighter with ion cannons." He then turned to Kirv. "They keep bringing Thrawn up when they contact my forces, pehaps it is time for them to meet their wish. First though, Captain what are your thoughts?" He glanced out at the fighter battle.
***
"Incoming fighters, they are hostile, what are your orders ma'am."
Aya looked skyward, the turned to her garrison officer. "The forest will give our forces cover from air attacks, though our own fighters are no match for theirs, lets not waste resources. Captain, activate the bases perimeter shield and contact the Dark Blade."
"Yes commander."

More than a full squadron of X-wings in total remained, although each from the Draken and Shadow squadrons mixed. Hetar kept pace with Stele, his X-wing jinking back and fourth taking potshots at passing TIE's and Claw craft. Although the X-wing was a good all-round ship it lacked the pushing edge, however the thing it did have was reliability. Hetar decided to change tactics, he threw his fighter into a starboard spin away from Stele's tail and settled behind a passing B-wing doing a slow loop. He got a laser lock and squeezed off a quad burst which the B-wing pilot easily avoided but unfortunately doomed himself/herself as the B-wing found itself having to slow its speed to avoid crashing into a passing TIE-Defender. Hetar fell back in behind the B-wing, switched his lasers over to recycle and smiled as he released a torpedo at the bomber-fighter hybrid then supressed his yoke's trigger and sent a flurry of lasers after the torpedo. Not waiting to see the result he spun his fighte onto the tail of a Defender and rained in his quad lasers.
The torpedo exploded and robbed the B-wing of its shields and in the chaff the pilot never registered the lasers which chewed into his craft. The X-wings lasers penetrated the fuslage which erupted into an expanding fire ball that engulfed the fighter and the passing TIE which passed through the explosion seemingly undamaged.
Hetar's target spun out of control and exploded from multiple laser hits.
The Defender continued listlessly until a stray fighter burst dismantled the fighter.
the scout team flew over the shielding and scanned the area
"sir we've found it, sending co-ordinates back to fleet" a pilot transmitte back to jacen and then sent the co-ordinates to the fleet. "alright send down the strike force" jacen ordered. the scout team launched their armments to clear some area for the landers
~~~~
a lander craft launched from a lucreclass and was immmediatly protecyed by 2 starviper squadrens and escorted to endor.
~~~~
"alright their starfighters are down to one squadren lets finish them off" Stele said to his squadrens as they regrouped (about half the defender squad, 3 starviper squads and a b-wing squad) they made an attack run on the x-wings, the b-wings superior fire power knocked out most of the shields and the starvipers laid down the rest and destroyed 3 x-wings, the defenders destroyed 2 more as they passed and stele shot by heter hitting, firing 3 times at the broadside and launching a torpedo that homed in on him.
~~~~~
(this is assuming the ships are finally in range)
the aggressor and mon cal fired at the (banis' ship), the shots from the mass drivers going through the shields and taking out a two turbolasers. the 5 vengeance frigates fired all it's mass drivers at the aldon and the darkblade had it's broadside attacked by the lucre class battleships
A Super Star Destroyer, four Imperial class-III Star Destroyers, two Imperial class-II Star Destroyers, two Interdictor class II Star Desroyers, three Calamiri Home-one class cruisers, two Lancer class frigates, two Corellian Corvettes, and one-hundred and twenty X-wings dropped out of hyperspace behind Jacen's fleet as they began engaging with the Dark Blade and the Blue Riot. The 120 X-wings sped ahead and fired multiple salvo's of torpedo's at the Mandalorian ships rears. This salvo was closely followed by a hailstorm of barbette heavy turbolasers, heavy turbolasers, turbolasers, concussion missiles, ion beams, light lasers and more proton torpedo's. The X-wings instantly spead out to make a space for the maelstrom.
The two-hundred and fourty torpedos slammed into the rear shields of the Manda' ships, instantly dropping them. Then the 3000 avarage turbolaser shots and several hundred hundred assorted other shots and torpedo's chewed into the engine compartments, hull plates, and any rear shields that remained. (Now tell me what sought of damaged would that do?)
Several ships suffered chain reactions and exploded, others suffered malfunctions as their orbital stabilizers were obliterated and lost control careening into other ships exloding, others lost engines and became floating targets.
On the bridge of the Super Star Destroyer Rebel Vengance, Thrawn stood with his hands behind his back, watching his temporary fleet move out into encirclement, the Interdictor-II's powering up their gravity fields. Thrawn spoke softly. "Captain Hok, how long until the gravity mass interdiction is up?" He asked, knowing the answer.
"Three minutes, Grand Admiral Thrawn."
"Open communications to the enemy fleet, captain. Lets see how they react to my reappearance."
"Open all frequencies."
Thrawn looked out at the Mandaore fleet and his red eyes glared. "Attention Mandalorian fleet, this is Grand Admiral Thrawn. You will surrender to us, or we will simply destroy the remainders of your fleet, as you can see we have powered up our Interdiction field, any attempt to attack us will be met with equal force. I am leniant however, you may retreat and tell your allaince of this encounter, and I am sure you would want to spare more blood shed." Thrawn remained comletely passive and signalled the captain. The frequency changed to Imperial. "Attention all friendly forces..."
stele was pretty shocked by the message and instanly replied a polite message
"how the ****, thrawn died years ago, i served under him before he was agrand admiral and you are not him, it' impossible, even if you are a clone your still just a fake, a cracked mirror image of him, just save the noghri some time and kill yourself" stele told thrawn waiting for a response. ~damn i thought the limit was still 4 cap ships, ohwell~
~~~~
arround the battle 10 vengeance frigates uncloaked and tragetted the interdictor's gravity well generators, but not before 2 keldabe, 2 aggressors, 1 lucre class,2 Republic-class Star Destroyer, 2 Nebula-class Star Destroyer and 3 moncalamaridropped out of hyperspace, which were previously ordered to continuesly (without stopping) travel a small, short route that passed endor every hour, imediatly the lucre, 1 keldabe and 1 aggressor crashed into star destroyer, the aggressor fortunately had enough time to activate the self destruct to inflict greater damage at their inevitable death. before the (original) aggressor blew up it fired its special weapon at the enemy endor base.
starvipers flooded out as fast as they could to engage the enemy fighters. the nebula star destroyers focused all firepower on the ISD-II, overpowering them and lowering the shields to nothing fairly quickly (40 heavy turbolasers, 40 turbolasers, 20 ion canons, 8 assualt cacussion missle tubes (30 missles each) per ship). the republic star destroyers were attacking the home-ones while the keldabe leeched one of the ISD-III's shields and fired on it's exposed turbolasers. the remaining aggressor attacked another ISD-III and the mon calamari ships attacked the ssd, the two remaining lucreclass battleships also attacked the ssd.
~sorry if that seemed unfair, i thought the fleet limit was 4 not 12, i would have had that fleet over endor if i knew~
jacen sensed the new arrivals and sighed heavily calling for on of the shuttles to pick him up
((That is the limit, this is my entire fleet except for a few Star Destroyers at Myrkr, besides I mentioned the fact that I had a back up fleet on the way (if you didn't read) you are kinda over doing it EH with that many ships? That is just unbelievable... I just brought in half that many ships, I even mentioned all these ships throughout this RP, your ships literally came from nowhere. Oh and mass drivers no-longer work on ISD-III's, the Rebel Vengance or the Interdictor SD-II's due to their shield modulation and constantly shifting variance and double shielding... My and engineers arent stupid. Also you are not in weapons range of my base.))
Thrawn stood in a calculative posture as the new arrivals opened fire on his ships. "Concentrate all your fire, captain, on the (whatever EH's major ships are)." He started issuing orders. "Launch all fighters, two ISD-III's to engage the Kedable's, their phase shieldings are immune to the shield leeching, the other two ISD-III's to take out those Agessors and the Nebula class Destroyers, the ISD-II to back up the other being attacked by the nebula."

The Battle of Endor-II
The fleet dispursed and seperated, exchanging broardsides with the enemy ships. The entire fleet launched over two-thousand one-hunded and twenty-eight star fighters, 60% of of which were X-wings, and the rest varied between TIE-Defenders, B-wings, A-wings, Interceptor-II's and Interceptors. The fighters swarmed from the hangers and into battle. Two ISD-III's pulled up and maneuvered into the flanks of the Kedables; pounding the ships with turbolasers, ion beams, concussion missiles and barbettes.
Two of the other ISD-III's engaged the Nebula class Star Destroyers, hundreds of turbolasers, barbettes, ion shots, and concusion missiles slamming the ships shields dropping them and turning unshielded hull to a molten armour plate state and the two ISD-II's reinforced each other and pounded the Nebula's from either sides, hundreds of turbolasers, ion shots, and concussion missiles blasting the starboard shields from two angles. The Nebula's convolted then soon found themselves a weaponsless skelton, a husk.
The two ISD-III's systematically destroyed the Kedable's and moved on to the Republic class Destroyers, guns flashing, fighters fired torpedo after torpedo, at the ships while dog fighting skillfully, destroying hundeds and hundreds of enemy fighters. Assault craft headed to Endor, protected by the Skipray blast boats and TIE-Interceptor squadrons. Over 100,000 troops were landed on Endor out of range of the fleets, hundreds of AT-AT, AT-RT's, AT-ST's and thousands of support vehicals including TX-tanks.
The Rebel Vengance took the brunt of the attack and surged on unhindered, every gun firing. Explosions decorated the battle. Fighters swarmed about the expance dog-fighting and taking bombing runs on enemy ships.
At the edge of the combat zone, the Dark Blade, the Aldon, and the Blue Riot seemed relatively forgotten in the chaos. "Move into range, fire at will." The Dark Blade moved into the combat zone, selecting a Republic class Desroyer as its target while the three modified Calamiri cruisers (deul shields, energy, phase shift variance) engaged the Lucre's, pouding the ships, backed up by the Lancers and the Corvettes. Fighters flashed back and fourth.
***
Thrawn turned to the expase of battle as the Rebel Vengance's deck shook. "I assure you I have all my memories," he narrowed his glowing red eyes, "and abilities."
***
Hetar dodged in and out between exploding ships and fighters, firing at them as he went. 'Where are you Stele?' He asked himself as he destroyed two Starviper's with a torp and quad burst from his laser cannons.
