Thyferra burns.
The war machines and armies of the Sith Order have ravaged the world’s surface and left husks of debris in orbit in the wake of the battle for the planet, with the valiant defenders of the High Republic forced on the backfoot as they now move to leave the ruined world behind.
Yet their escape will not be so seamless nor uncontested. The orbital conflict still rages, though the Republic fleets have largely begun adopting defensive perimeters to guard evacuation zones and hyperspace routes out of the system rather than actually contest control over Thyferra. On the ground the situation is even worse, with plagues and Sith forces tearing across the burned fields and bombed ruins of the world in a vicious hunt for their foes.
For the Sith Order, no quarter is to be given, all High Republic forces on the world are to be found and eliminated with only select ranks and individuals authorized for capture and interrogation. Among them being Jedi and any others who may know of the nature of the Force Suppression field which had affected the planet. Whatever remains of the Bacta production assets are to be seized and guarded from further destruction or sabotage as well.
For the High Republic, retreat is now the only order remaining. The forces in orbit will hold for as long as possible over the evacuation sites but these are limited and prone to shrinking should the situation change, making escape a difficult prospect. The sites are secure for the moment however as Sith forces move in this will not remain the case for long. Get to the evacuation sites and save all that you can.
Whether it be in the scorched and cratered Alazhi paddy fields or the crumbling and destroyed ruins of industry and urban centers, the Sith chase the Republic’s forces and citizens. Battle lines are breaking down in favor of smaller scale skirmishes as soldiers on both sides rush for the evacuation zones and Sith and Jedi move to halt one another in their tracks.
The evacuation sites for the High Republic forces and citizenry must be held against an onslaught of Sith forces both on the ground and from above as they move across the battered surface of Thyferra. Jedi and Republic soldiers must hold the line whilst their comrades, civilians, and what assets can be scavenged evacuate the planet. Sith and their armies are to overwhelm and destroy these sites, denying any and all avenues of escape.
In the chaos of the battle turning into a rout there are various avenues of approach beyond just the retreat and pursuit. The remaining Bacta production assets, the Alazhi fields and the refineries as well as the Kavam stockpiles, are few yet now more vital than ever. The orbital conflict still rages with any tip in the balance sure to ripple through the final hours of the battle. There are still pieces yet to fall into place even with the victors decided.
This is the OOC thread for coordination and plotting! Have fun folks!
