"The Kiwi Wars" Part 2 Beginning: Space Combat

[Legionite]

(TAC has the H4wKNet radar tower: ) Recent scans have revealed our cloaked flagship to the "world".
It also revealed a bunch of pretty huge Kiwi space fleets scattered around in multiple orbit inclinations around the Off-World.​

This is going to be one very long war...

Seems the Kiwi Kingdom was up to something huge while they were "messing around" in their kingdom.​

My kingdom's flagship is currently available to go to combat, but first, it needs support, because even though it is an old ship and has a "wave motion gun"-caliber weapon, it is literally impossible to pull off a "Space Battleship Yamato"(one ship vs an entire kingdom) in this battle because the enemy is in fleets!

First, and closest enemy to the planet seems to be a decently sized army with 3 Cruisers, 1 Frigate, a small Carrier, and a cloaking field generator. Be wary as there may also be an undetectable asteroid base nearby.

Okay. I'm gonna build up some ships and I'll attack. We know where they are, their cloaking field generator is useless.

Me too. Also, I was thinking about this...

Damn. FLEET ENGAGE THE KIWIS IMMEDIATELY AND BLOCKADE OUR STATIONS! Support ships will be sent to the UESO soon.

 

[The Grand Teki]

Thanks for the support.

 

[JimmyBlether]

Thanks for the support.

No problem.

 

[Boomik]

Guys, you think planes will work in space? I know it sounds stupid, but just a though...

 

[The Grand Teki]

If they have non-air breathing (praise be KSP) thrusters, yes.

 

[Boomik]

If they have non-air breathing (praise be KSP) thrusters, yes.

So, all we need to do is get a Helicruiser, retrofit it with better boosters and space missiles, and we're space-bourne!!!

Yes. While in the atmosphere, it can use rotors to speed up more efficiently because orbiting is just very fast sideways motion.

 

[Boomik]

Yes. While in the atmosphere, it can use rotors to speed up more efficiently because orbiting is just very fast sideways motion.

So, no rotors needed?

 

[The Grand Teki]

So, no rotors needed?

No, but if you want to get to space using less fuel, you should use them while you can. If you're in space, you can ditch them because those are dead weight.

 

[Boomik]

No, but if you want to get to space using less fuel, you should use them while you can. If you're in space, you can ditch them because those are dead weight.

We can just take them up with rockets.

 

[The Grand Teki]

We can just take them up with rockets.

Provided you have the neccessary money and resources (BRB)

 

[Boomik]

Provided you have the neccessary money and resources (BRB)

Resources, yeah, definitely. Money, not so sure about that...

 

[The Grand Teki]

Resources, yeah, definitely. Money, not so sure about that...

You can buy resources from money ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ (back)

 

[JimmyBlether]

Kiwi fleet spotted! Engaging immediately.

Kiwi fleet consists of 5 corvettes, 2 battleships, 40 starfighters and 1 carrier.

SFS fleet consists of 1 ARMAGEDDON CLASS Super dreadnought (the ARMAGEDDON herself, SFS only has 2, the ARMAGEDDON and the APOCALYPSE), 1 carrier, 3 gunships and 3 squadrons of fighters.

SFS carrier launches alpha squadron with 25 fighters: engage Kiwi fighter squadron- 25 of Kiwi ships knocked out and 9 SFS fighters damaged or destroyed

Kiwi ships open fire!

SFS ships open fire!

Heavy shield damage to both, slightly more to the Kiwi fleet.

4 Kiwi corvettes destroyed!

1 SFS gunship destroyed!

Missile volley is fired from the ARMAGEDDON: Critical hit on the Kiwi carrier's hangars!

SFS beta squadron attacks Kiwi battleships: main weapons down on battleship #1!

SFS beta squadron attacks Kiwi battleships: main weapons down on battleship #2!

Remaining Kiwi corvette destroyed by weapons fire!

Kiwi ships retreating: SFS gamma squadron attacks to disable Kiwi ship's engines- Kiwi ships disabled.

Boarding of Kiwi ships proceeds.

End of confrontation (this was a tiny fraction of the kiwi's forces.

 

[Boomik]

Okay. This is too much.
How in the world did you get ALL of those spaceships in a matter of a few days??? This is to ALL of you!!!

 

[BenBacon]

Okay. This is too much.

Because we are not trying to make a lot of money right now
