War & Gamble (Mandalorian Dominion of Vorzyd)

When things didn't go as planned and they rarely did one needed to improvise. If they were calling in the Vong than things were becoming serious so she would have to take the information that she did have and actually fight. They were perhaps right about her negotiating but wouldn't ever tell them that.

As she left the headquarters Ana made note of where it was as she high tailed it out of there and with the rest of the group. There was one whom stood out to her which probably was because he was force sensitive as was she. Ana would have to keep an eye on him.

Fire.

It had to be fire.

Ginnie Ordo's greatest strength and her Mastercraft in the Force were one and the same: pyromancy was the tool the thirteen year old Mandalorian used best in all her impressive arsenal. "Oya Mando!" Ginnie slung her rifle around her shoulder and stepped out in front of a group of Mando'ade who had regrouped by a building for protection. She stomped her petite boot and raised her crushgaunts.

The flames surrounding her halted. Froze. Then began to dance for a different keeper. Although she had the power to conjure her own fire, the art of manipulating it was an even easier draw. Between her taste for altering the environment and her innate experience with the flame, the daughter of [member="Ordo"] and [member="Rianna be Ar'klim"] exhaled sharply. Within a thirty metre radius all the fires around swept forward and out, mixing together in an unholy conflagration into one lone pillar.

To the roar of the Vong came the roar of Ginnie's rage. "This fire is mine!!" If [member="Dredge"] thought he was the only fire wielder the Force had given Vorzyd, he would feel the air around him leak away. More and more Ginnie stole the oxygen from the air around them to fuel her pillar of fire. Graug dropped, suffocating in the streets and then.

Oh.

The pillar of fire began to move. Hands up and words mumbling from her breath, the Beskar'gam clad Sith Alchemist and Pyromancer used the fire like a tunnelling whip, bashing against Vong, lighting up feral Graug and above all giving the Mando'ade the chance to regroup in the relative protection of her miniature maelstrom.

As the building around [member="Preliat Mantis"] and [member="Aditya Amadis"] fell, Ginnie's roaring pillar of roiling, frothing flame burst at the Grag and their war cries. Ginnie stepped sure and firm on the ground, maintaining a foundationally strong stance with each step as her father [member="Ordo"] had taught her: Have an immoveable foundation and you can move mountains, rivers, winds and fire.

Vorzyd was the Mand'alor's. Vorzyd would not fall as long as there was oxygen left.

“Vong”, the men whom was escorting Yokuni to the diplomatic talks cried out and ran in different directions. Their fear evident was felt through the Force. In was herald in by the screeching sound of the Vong ship. Yokuni rerouted his path. In doing this in the throng of the madness Yokuni seen someone he had meet before. “Ana”, he said surprisingly. “You need to make your way to the vod staging area now. I suggest you come with me.” There was once a time when this woman had shown some kindness to Garith and now he had a chance to repay that favor.
 
Location: Vorzyd IV; Urban Complex
Allies: Mandalorians; [member="Arla Balor"] [member="Strider Garon"]
Enemies: Rebels....now the Vong
...the Soldier followed Arla to another room after the last one had been cleared. This next one was filled with between five and six hostiles according to Arla's count; Naimes could track the heat signatures through the wall however he remained curiously silent with concerns to what he saw and waited to see how Arla would proceed. If this was training then Naimes would need to see his pupil in action so that he could instruct her which meant that once he had let Arla onto point she was allowed to make the decisions. At least until he thought she'd made the wrong decision...

...he waited to one side of the entrance into the room, his -Kath Hound- Shotgun prepared at a lowered angle for when the firefight began, then Arla would through the Fragmentation Grenade. Aside from the weapons that Naimes could hear being prepared the sound of the grenade detonating would have been quite loud, it would have literally drown out any other sound the two of them would have been able to hear for the brief moment when it occurred, then the sounds of the wounded would have followed and the battle would commence. That was the Breach. It was time to clear the room next which is when Naimes became the teacher...

...he was prepared to rush into the room following the detonation of the grenade but instead he'd seen Arla kneeling in the doorway and picking her shots. Immediately Naimes reached out with his left hand, his left arm surprisingly strong due to it actually being a Mark V Cyberarm, so that he could do what amount to taking Arla by the scruff of the neck and tossing her into the room where the firefight was happening...
"BREACH AND CLEAR!"...rang over her comms when he did this before Naimes followed behind her. As he went his left hand would return to the underside of the shotgun and he would pump it a single time ensuring it was primed for combat....

...the fragmentation, if it was thrown correctly, should have killed or incapacitated a number of targets, especially in a closed off area like a room, which meant that as Naimes rushed in his primary focus was on any combatants that could have remained. Leveling the Shotgun ahead he'd come around the corner after entering the room, make eyes on his first target who was likewise readying his weapon, then he would squeeze the trigger and fire a heavy blast of energy into the mans torso from close range leave a burnt area where the shot had hit and a corpse in its wake. Another pump of the shotgun followed afterwards...

...the Mandalorian's primary function was to make a sweep of the room, checking his corners and making a quick survey as he went, while incapacitating any hostiles he encounter. A second hostile would receive a treatment similar to the first when he unloaded another heavy shot of blaster energy into him from close range. Anyone else Naimes suspected Arla would have dealt with however as he finished he would turn, ensuring both he and the Rally Master were the only ones left standing in the room. When he made eyes on Arla he would have said...
"Breach."...before inclining his head towards the entrance..."Clear."...then the motion of his head would indicate the enemy dead before his gaze returned to her..."Room is secure, Rally Master."...

---------------------------------------

...there might have been time to discuss it further, perhaps Arla would protest to how Naimes had dealt with her however only a short time after the room had been cleared the large Urban Complex would have been rocked by what felt like heavy firepower from above. According to his intel the rebels of Vorzyd IV didn't have the means to field capital ships or this kind of firepower which lead to him mumbling as he looked at Arla...
"This isn't right."...then he would patch over to his comms system..."Field Marshall Garon what's happening out there?"...from this vantage point he would have no idea...

Dredge now made it very clear that his intentions were fully fueled by revenge and now things were getting intensely hot, like literally blazing sun hot. The vong had turned up the heat having flames burst from him with flames licking out and all over the mandalorian before him. Strider would jump backwards from the hells inferno, tripping over the body of a fallen vod. Landing on his back, his army sizzling with heat, his skin burning in excruciating pain from the magical fire. Problem was the old mandalorian had no time to sit there and nurse his wounds, the armored beast was upon him with blade and all its strength behind it.

Strider would roll off to the right, as the blade narrowly missed him and cutting into the ground. The mandalorian would then pounce to his feet, knowing full well that if he lingered on the ground longer then he had, he would be visiting the Manda sooner then he had wish for. Mobility was going to be his Ally today. The old man was not one for witty come backs or pointless monologs. He was a man of action and would meet the Vong's evil tongue and its foul play with steel. That was when his comm piped up with [member="Naimes Ahn-Dross"] asking for a site-rep. The man new how to choose his timing. Problem was Strider had no time to answer him.

The toasty Mando would once against lunge at the Vong with his beskad, highly motivated to have his blade crack the armor and find home in this creature's flesh and bone. The attack would come once more from the mandalorians strong side in a angled slice aimed at hacking the Vong's left leg off as if he were wielding an axe and Dredge was nothing more then a inflamed tree.

The cannon shot hit like a missile. Its shock wave hit like a tank. Fortunately for Sor’row the rubble and shrapnel hit like slightly smaller speeders. She was launched from the rooftop she was on like the spit from a Gamorrean's lip. For one split second she was flying, immune to the gravity of this world. Removed for but a moment, from the fire and blood raining on the land below. She could see a pillar of flame leap up and began to dance. She heard two blasts from a shotgun but then no more. In silence she cruised the rest of her flight, a goddess on the wind with but one care in the world. Its gonna hurt like schutta poo-doo when I land.

She saw rather then felt her body land, its immense limpness only minor concern. In the days to come she would wonder at the amazing workings of her body. There was a distinct point in time that she felt her heart stop, she would remember. It had been followed by the silence and lack of feeling. She shouted at herself to get up, the words roaring in her ears as her second heart tried to make up the difference for its sister. Sound slowly began to return and with it the pain of being launched from a building by cannon fire.

She took stock of herself. Everything was where it should be with a bit of singe on her head tails and an ass that would probably have to wait its turn for strengthening exercises pending recovery. She knew rather than felt the fractures in her ribs and she was glad that she had such a thick skull. She wiped the blood out of her left eye and blinked it clear. Her ankle was lightly sprained and swollen making running out of the question. None of her fractures were splintered breaks fortunately and she knew that she could wait those out without having to pay a physician for kolto.

She took in her new surroundings. There was Vong and droids all around her killing each other with extreme prejudice. She looked up and saw a very angry pregnant lady about to beat her like a naughty step child and for the first time realized she was sitting on someones face. Her shifting was just enough for the guy to push her off forcefully and she went rolling a couple of feet, sharply striking her elbow. She was a little loopy and a lot ditzy so she said with as much force as she could muster.
[member='Aditya Amadis'] i am here to collect you for evasion of justice and jury duty, as well as tax evasion, insider trading, and for being in the cutest coupling I have ever seen. Come over here so I can pinch both of your cheeks. The Blind Luck Bandit Strikes Again!!! You have been served.”

Sor’row promptly fell over and coughed hard. *Cough COUGH COUGH cough* I’m okay just give me a… *COUGH COUGH COUGH COUGH COUGH*... You guys have some water or some..*COUGHCOUGHCOUGHCOUGH* I think im gonna... *Grahwawawawawa vomit*...*splatter*

"READY!" The sound of large cocking mechinism echoed through the halls of the ship, and suddenly it was followed by many more. Power surged and flowed through massive capital guns on the ship, turbo lasers that would soon join the volley of surge coral that was pelting the ground bellow. "FIRE!!" A Graug crew chief waved his hands and the capital guns began to hit the city. Buildings toppled and structures groaned and the fire soon spread. Flames began to spread from building to building as a large fire broke out and was now left unchecked to spread through the city. There was no emergency relief forces, there was nothing but slaughter and revenge to bring upon the Mandolorian race. "ALL GUNS FIRE!!" The capital guns screeched and banged as the shelling intensified destroying areas of the city. Vong and mando alike were crushed under bricks and steel as the shelling proceeded. The surge coral canon shifted and continued to blow chunks out of the mando staging point

Collectors dodged and weaved gracefully through the fire still latching on to troops and ships alike to destroy them. The droids aimed themselves at the rest of the super commandos at the staging point. Their red eyes focused and the droids dove down in swarms ending lives in the goriest of manners. The commandos had bought them time though, wounded would be escorted, triaged and helped. But now the droids had other targets to lash out to. With a humming noise they came down to the ground their massive legs hitting the floor. They joined the fray down bellow to engage Mandolorian warriors and kill all that stood in the way of Dredge's revenge.

[member="Ginnie Ordo"] was throwing fire around like it was going out of style, she roasted Vong and Graug alike in her path. She and the others were close to dredge only a block or two away from the overlord. But they had a problem on their hands now. The group of Graug mowing down on the dead children looked up with hunger in their eyes. The horde master among them lifted a hand and pointed it at the fire bender. "KILL THEM!!" The Graug roared in a chorus of screams and picked up their weapons. Aiming their guns at the mandos they unloaded hundreds of blaster bolts from their fully automatic weapons, casting down death at their targets. They wanted, no needed their blood.

With a loud thunk the blade bit into dredge, hitting a weak point of the armor the blade bit into his leg about a good two inches tearing through muscle and flesh. Black blood seeped to the top of the wound only for it to be burned closed. Dredge was not going to be bleeding out but the muscle damage had been done. Buckling a bit Dredge wanted to collapse upon the weight of his own armor. But the darkside would not allow him. Screaming in pain Dredge aimed the flaming sword down on Strider in a vertical sweeping motion aimed at his belly to try and spill his guts onto the floor.

"I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE!!" The aura of flames refocused and shot out upwards. Rage and pain being fed into the darkside of the force. He focused his eyes on strider his blade singing with heat as it cut through the air towards his foe.

The fact that he remembered her jogged her memory. He had been that one man she had shown around Dathomir when she first got there. Ana had still been new herself but all the same had tried to be nice to him after all he was a fellow witch or something to that nature. Ana couldn't remember exactly but it didn't much matter.

"Let's go," she motioned him to follow her where she knew her Vode were stationed. This was turning out worse than what she could have originally imagined. As shots began to rain down upon them she used the force to cast a force barrier spell. It wouldn't last very long but it was something for the moment.

Arla picked herself up from the floor she was angry, embarrassed and would not have her methods countered just because they were not someone else's methods. And OH yes they would discuss it right now, even as she politely waited for him to stop speaking. If she was Rally Master and if one single man could not trust her judgment, then she didn't deserve her rank.

She stood before him, "Naimes if you had observed the room rather than just doing the regular shock and awe drill that all mandalorians seemed to have cut their teeth on, you'd have seen it wasn't a frag grenade, it was an adhesive grenade"

She pointed to the floor and walls, "they were stuck they weren't going anywhere so I had every right to shoot them from the door, as Rally Master it was my call my choice"

She wasn't going to move he had made her feel a fool by pushing her around like some rag doll and she'd be damned if she'd let it slide.

"The room I believe would have been clear no matter what, and with little risk giving us the cover of the hall all we had to do was step in, and clear the rest of the room, and check for survivors. The immediate eyes on were gone." She shook her head, "Naimes you know a great deal you don't need to treat me like ad'ika."

Her pride hurt more than anything else someone throwing her around like that, too much of a reminder being someone's slave. The last thing she would ever be was a slave to someone.

She didn't hear a reply from Strider, "We need to find out what the hell that was, and get out of this death trap" Urban warfare, she was not a fan. She put the pistol away, and pulled off the rifle. Ready to keep moving this was a battle after all, not a place for her to have her own pity party.

All the fire under Ginnie Ordo's controll ceased to be. The streets surrounding the Mandalorian Rally Point were devoid of new flames and the child yelped as the Graug opened fire, "Hit the decks!"

The child took two firm shots to her Beskar'gam, tumbling ten feet in a skid until her back hit something solid. All around her Mando'ade were ducking behind barricades for cover. She held out her hand and force pushed a Mandalorian out of the range of the blaster bolts. If she stuck with the Mandos she would endanger them all, and that was the last thing the girl wanted.

[member="Dredge"] was going to burn the planet to cinders. Ginnie stared at the 360 scans coming into her HUD and knew if she didn't deal with the monumental fires popping down at the city, the citizens left and her beloved Mandalorians would all be burned to a crisp. Ginnie's jetpack blazed on and the girl veered onto the top of the tallest building she could find. "Ok come on, Ginnie you can do this. You can Ginnie, it's just fire."

She fixed her boots on a firm foundation and blocked out all else but the flow of the Force. The city's winds began to pick up, settling around her fingertips as Ginnie got a larger perspective. What was distance, what was time when one could rest in the bosom of the mighty current and stand solid in the grounding of her father? Ginnie pushed out her hands and the fires whicking around buildings, tormenting Mandalorians and Vorzydans both settled, dwindled and died. All throughout as Ginnie had the line of sight she quelled the flames, her brow furrowed and body shaking. Where she could the pyromancer redirected the infernos to torch the Vong and Graug banding in the streets, she grunted.

The level of control was beginning to hurt. Hopefully help would come soon to the Goran'ika of Clan Ordo.
 
Location: Streets, near [member="Dredge"]
Allies: [member="Aditya Amadis"], [member="Strider Garon"] @You get the idea
Enemies: [member="Dredge"] and his wonderful douchebaggery, [member="Sor'row Fae"].



Preliat just glared at [member="Sor'row Fae"] passively and watched as the would-be bounty hunter. Would-be, due to the fact that she seemed like the most incompetent fool to ever grace his gaze. Preliat's dark brown eyes flickered over to Aditya, and then he flicked the safety of the M45 off. However, the Bounty Hunter wasn't after him, and he didn't feel right shooting an injured (and stupid) person. He turned to Aditya, shrugging.


"You decide what to do. It is your bounty, after all."


Preliat watched as the city came under massive fire- from above. So, he did what any leader would do. Grasping his throat communicator (his backup), he fixed it around his neck while taking cover, and began to bark orders. Mandalorian fire teams and demolition troops were told to fire at the guns of the ship with rockets and whatever heavy weaponry was about, and he turned down the street. Graug and Vong were attempting to attack civilians.


"YOU COWARDS!"


Preliat flew forward, charging towards the crowd, firing indiscriminately at the hip. Aditya was more than capable of being more than thirty feet away from him without dying. Preliat cut down a majority of them with his rifle, and then let it fall to his side, the strap keeping it close to his body as he removed his Tomahawk. The Vong and the Graug could not withstand the onslaught of Preliat, falling after a brutal and savage attack. He finished the show of skill by grabbing a Vong by the face, and throwing him to the ground. He felt his bones break under the crushgaunt, but was not satisfied until he clobbered his face in with the tomahawk, leaving only a bloody mess.


And then, he screamed. Vong and Graug stopped, the ones that could hear it- sensing the disturbing nature of the scream. It was not human, it was not even remotely humanoid. It was a sound that most would remember until the day they died. It was a scream of pure agony and rage, brought on by horrors that he had endured. It did not sound like a mortal man. It did not sound like it belonged on any planet, but somewhere from the depths of nightmares and the darkest, blackest parts of the galaxy.


Preliat's eyes danced around, picking up his tomahawk and his rifle. Then, his eyes saw him.


[member="Dredge"]. The perpetuator of the events. Fighting with the aging man, [member="Strider Garon"]. Preliat's blood boiled, before he ran back to Aditya. He had to protect his own, then he could worry about vengeance. Needless to say, it was a tough decision.


"Come on, we're not too far from the staging area. They've got AA guns there- you won't be terribly bothered."


Mandalorian forces began to push back- adopting new tactics to beat back the Vong and the Graug troops. Vong troops fell with troopers fighting them up close, breaking their bones and their bodies with bone-crunching punches and savage attacks. Preliat's men, a whole company of them (whom were identifiable by a series of black stripes on their arms), were the most effective at this. They were instrumental in fighting back the forces, and he had hand-selected specialized troopers who had shown prowess in past incursions and they led from the front, relaying his orders. He turned to Aditya, as the bolts and blood flew around them, and Mandalorian shock troopers began to rapidly push back the rampaging assault by Dredge's forces.


Preliat's eyes danced over Aditya, a measure of fear for her safety laying in them.
 
Location: Some Building not far from rally point

The building they were in shook as the blast from the Vong ship hit a nearby building. Like a terrible quake mortar and plaster began to fall as the walls and the roof fell apart. It was as if a giant was clawing at the building ripping section by section.

[member="Anastasia Rade"] ‘s Force barrier came up protecting them from debris. A large section of the roof was about to land on the bubble but Yokuni was quick to react. He lifted his hands up. With a deep breath he then exhaled and the speeder size chunk of roof stopped in mid air. Yokuni ignored the small debris and focus on the next large chunk. With one hand the large chunk he was holding mirrored his move of his hand and he tossed it to the side. With the other he held it up and the chunk stopped in mid air like the last.

It went on like this a few moments as they worked as a team. When it stopped the roof was gone and the side of the building was gone. From their vantage point they could see a city on fire as a war zone because even more dangerous then it was when the evening had begun.

Mandalorians and enemy alike were engaged in the battles of their lives. Bodies of the dead littered the immediate area, a dreaded spectacle that Strider could witness through his 360 degree view form his helmet. Such devastation, reckless regard for life that this vong had brought with him in all to exact revenge upon his rival. This creature was pure evil, would throw lives away for a single minded agenda with out hesitation. Such useless slaughter grew testament to Dredge's character. Strider could not lead his forces proper as he was tied up in single combat and now relied on the famous mandalorian independence, they were a force that could effectively operate with out leadership. Though Prelait was still on the field it seemed his attention was focused upon the safety of his family to be and not one hundred percent on the war at hand. These are reasons why one does not bring expecting women to battle, they made great warriors soft.

Though Strider was past his prime, his youthful vigor lost many years ago, he was still a formidable warrior and master of the blade. He was pleased to see his beskad imbed into the vong's leg, not so impressed to see it did not buckle the monster as he had hoped. The slower and heavily armored beast was no match for Garon's agility matched against his counterattack. The mando would pounce back beyond the sword's reach then double back further from the flames he has grown to know all well.

The old man may lack in youth he made up in ferocious tenacity as he would not let up, charging back at Dredge the moment the flames receded and continuing the attack. This time the beskad would lash out again from Strider's strong side, aimed at hacking the monster's left arm off. The idea of killing this vong off fast like faded and Strider knew now that he would have to cut him down, piece by piece with is vicious swings and slashes of his blade.

Preliat was a beast of nature, a horrifying combatant and the rampaging savage arm of the Mando'ade. As Aditya watched him work, she felt the pangs of lost sons and daughters, falling in their Beskar as the Graug and Vong continued their assault. The people were rallying and less Mando'ade were dying.

Aditya's drones were veering into groups of Vong and Graug and blowing them asunder.

And then a slip of a bounty hunter came upon the pregnant lover of the Mando'ade Wolf. "What in the world?"

Aditya turned around and eyed the ditzy, coughing, broken Twi'lek and shook her head under her lover's helmet. "Are you. . . are you serious? We're in the middle of a fething war zone and you think it's a swell idea to pull a karking bounty on my head!?" Once upon a time Aditya had warned Preliat that she got angry. Blazingly upset. Aditya pulled out her blaster pistol and fired unapologetically at the Twi'lek's knees and stomach. "I've had enough!" She screamed. Sor'row vomited on her shoes. On the pregnant woman's most comfortable shoes.

"Today was supposed to be an easy day! I was going to check out factories and help in a supportive role where my baby and I would be fine! I've been shot at, assaulted by lobster calamari creatures and I've watched my one and only hack people to pieces with nothing but a tomahawk and a savage glare and I AM NOT going with some TWO BIT, BROKEN BONED BOUNTY HUNTER WHO CAN"T SEE I'M HAVING A FETHING BAD DAY!!" Aditya continued to fire into the Twi'lek, she'd turn the girl into a charred wreck of charcoal and wasted dreams if she had the chance. It was then that Preliat's ungodly scream burst into her ears and Aditya shuddered. This war. . . it was neither good nor holy. It should never have become like this.

"This is what's happening! I'm going over there! I'm getting to relative safety! And I'm gonna watch the love of my life take a crab monster apart with a tomahawk to save the life of some nymphomaniac arthritic I've barely met! And then we're going home! And I'm running a bath! And we're gonna look at baby names and there is nothing you are going to tell me, threaten me with or do to me which will stop me from soaking in a nice hot soapy tub talking about baby names with Preliat!" The hormonal pregnant Epicanthix seethed and burst into tears. War wasn't fun, she didn't want to see how many creatures wanted to blow her up or take her Preliat to the Great Manda or the Wild Blue Yonder or what have her, and she certainly wasn't in the mood to deal with a broken up bounty hunter puking on her shoes.

Yanking a grenade from her belt, Aditya held it up, her gun still pointed at Sor'row's vital organs. "This is a frag grenade. Come within fifty metres of me or Preliat and so help me I will yank the pin, plunge this thing in your mouth and uppercut you in the jaw! If you're not dead already skulk off!"

Still sobbing under Preliat's Buy'ce, Aditya spied the picture of her Preliat kept inside. . . and continued to burst into tears. "I wanna shoot the bad guys." She stuttered with a sniffle. This was it. The pregnant woman had reached her limit and as Preliat Mantis led her to relative safety with his troops, she peered up at him and took off his buy'ce, the tears stroked across her face. Wanting to curl into his arms but knowing now was neither the time nor the place, Aditya followed close to him, knowing they'd come out okay in the end.

"Go kill them. I'll be alright, your troops will protect me. Take your buy'ce and go save our family. I got explosives, a gun and a bunch of Mandalorians who know what'll happen to them if I come to harm. Go get him, sweetheart."

Aditya gave him the go ahead. A deep scream in his ears, a ringing sound of focus, of pure adrenaline and of pure excitement. He didn't need to stop and talk about it- his men began to swarm around Aditya, loyal to him and by extension, her. Bodies covered his view from her- focus. His helmet didn't allow him to feel the rush, as he charged towards [member="Dredge"]. His footsteps began to take flight. Hockey skills came back into play, the way he moved. Low, precise, and from his blind side. While Dredge was distracted with Strider, Preliat's Beskar'kandar covered body, went straight for Dredge.


He went straight for the ribcage of Dredge, his shoulder aiming to slam into him."YOU WANT A WAR DREDGE?"He said, gritting his teeth."I WILL GIVE YOU A WAR!"
 
Vorzyd IV

Allies: The Brave Warriors of the Mandalorians
Enemies: Vorzyd Resistance and Yuuzhan Vong

Halik dove behind cover, several warriors alongside him. The fighting was fierce in this district. The factories made for a dreadful battleground. Conveyor belts and other machinery created an irregular environment for combat. All around the factory were walkways and paths built over the factory. The chaos of combat was highlighted in this area. Halik disliked the damage being done to this area. Part of the reason for this conquest was acquiring these factories, but their enemies decided to make the victory less worthwhile. Halik applauded their resilience. They likely understood that they were going to lose, so they intended to die fighting and cause as much damage to their useful locations as possible. Perhaps they also hoped to dissuade their aggressors from pressing on but still have enough fixable factories to get their lives back together eventually.

It likely would have been a fair strategy. However, they were fighting Mandalorians. Mandalorians did not concern themselves with petty losses. The glory of conquest was a sufficient reward for the warriors. At least, it was enough for the true Mandalorians.

From his vantage point he could see some warriors being pushed back from their positions. Vong always made for difficult opponents. In some ways, it was more palatable to fight a Jedi or Sith than a Yuuzhan Vong. Still, all that Halik could see was glory.
"Come, my brothers! Press on." He shouted to his men.
As soon as the words were out of his mouth, he rose from behind his cover and fired upon Yuuzhan Vong that were pressing into his men. With their attention in another direction they were quickly killed or suppressed.
 
LOCATION: Staging point
Enemies: [member="Strider Garon"] and a soon to be distracted [member="Preliat Mantis"]

Strider's blade rang true and hard as it tore deep with Dredge's arm, the blade making it halfway to the bone of the mad Vong's arm. Dredge roared in pain and his eyes turned all but red as rage and pain corsed through his body. He was hurt, and he was feeling it now. With a ravenous howl Dredge arched his head back and slammed into the helmet of Strider Garon. With much haste the overlord flipped himself around to Strider's left arm. He was going to make him pay, for everything that he had done to him. To his people and to his kingship. "AN ARM FOR AN ARM!!" Dredge roared and reached out to grab at Strider's left arm dropping the burning Beskad in the process.

Wrapping his hands around the robotic limb Dredge screamed in agonizing pain, the muscles in his torn arm being all but destroyed more as he placed a leg on Strider's hip and pulled the mechanical limb from the body it once inhabited. "I WILL MURDER YOUR FAMILY!! KILL YOUR LOVED ONES AND MAKE YOUR CHILDREN MY SLAVES!!" Dredge screamed out and took a step back throwing the arm down. "MY MEN WILL SLAY YOUR SONS AND RAVAGE YOUR DAUGHTERS!!" The voice of Dredge became more and more inhuman as the darkness took over him. His blood red eyes showed nothing but rage and vengeance. And just like that he charged forward, lunging at strider again like a cat exposing himself in all his rage.

The pounding of the city continued and the collectors that had hit the ground looked over to Preliat who say them approaching their master buzzed with power and flew forward. This was a fight that was not about to be interrupted by the likes of him. The tall six meter droids stood above Preliat a few yards between him and Dredge. Four of them total. The mechanical monsters buzzed and sent sharpened tenticles in the direction of [member="Preliat Mantis"] . This was going to be a small obstacle to get around but the fight would go undetoured so that he may have his revenge

"FIRE EVERYTHING!!" The Graug crew chief laughed and bellowed watching ad the guns of the ship ruined tabs city. Striking down buildings and rattling the foundations of others. Innocence died under it's fire and the men firing the guns loved every moment of it all.

OOC note: Strider has given me permission for what dredge has done, and I in return give him permission for what comes next
 
The anger, the hate and the brutality it took to rip Strider's bionic left arm from its emplacement seemed to be near impossible at the hands of a mortal. But this beast was beyound a human and some trickery of the force and vong humpage. But, there it had happened, the very moment his own blade had struck true into the Monster's arm he had reached out and yanked Garon's arm clean off. SUCH POWER!!!!

Strider stumbled backwards in shock, in fear and in utter dread. Was this the end? The vong was spouting of some vengeful words, his tongue vouching to murder his blood line and other nonsense monologs. His words were nothing more then white noise to the Mandalorian as he watched the vong toss his arm off to the side as if it were nothing. The realization that the old man's life was about to come to an end had finally struck. Then the vong's word's had come to him, he was uttering threats upon his kin, his mandos his entirety of life. Now those words brought the wounded warrior to such anger and rage, such realization that this moment was gonna be his last.

The Vong thrusted forward in full confidence, a coup de gras in the making. The End of the long life of Strider Garon was to be at the hands of a vong........................

"FRAK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The old man would thrust his blade with all he had, the tip of the beskade with the muscle behind it would tear into the Vong's armor and then deep into Dredge's chest cavity and out the other end, aided by the heavy beast's forward momentum. Strider was not going to let such a creature live in this galaxy, not while he breathed, not while he still had fight left in him.

OOC: I have had prior permission to rp Dredge's damage.

Although the chaotic syphony of warfare rang all about, the Mandalorian knew only silence. For him, the cries of anguish and the roars of battle were all but glorified whispers. Only through focus could he achieve this small "feat", and in these moments the totality of his attention was placed upon a target. The Factory District was a literal maze of buildings, each filled to the brim with equipment that now acted as makeshift cover. The Children of Mandalore boldy faced down the combined forces of the Resistance and the Vong, and it seemed as though victory was not too far out of reach. In times past, Isley would have been in the thicket of the battle; directly charging the enemy with a burning desire to bring glory to Mandalore.

Yet today, he took a more supportive role.

Overlooking one of the most active points of contact was the skeleton of a former office. In times past, the administrative ventures of the factories occurred behind the now-scorched walls. 'Twas here that the durasteel-clad warrior came to lay, flat upon stone and ashes alike. Within his grasp was a sniper rifle, one of unremarkable make and design. It was not of the quality that he had formerly become accustomed to, but for the time being it would get the job done. With calm, deep breaths, the Mandalorian took his time lining up the sights. Through the scope, he could clearly see the tide of battle and took a moment to survey the scene. He paused upon seeing [member="Halik Falkosi"] rally his comrades, and couldn't help but allow a small smirk to form upon his lips.

"Just like old times, eh vod?" he muttered into his comm.

With that said, Isley moved his focus up to the opposition and assessed the plethora of potential targets. Sure, he could easily drop a grunt, but then two more would step up to take his place. No, what he needed to do was focus on the bigger, badder motherkarkers so that pushing forward would be easier. After a few seconds of sizing up the "crowd", the Mandalorian spotted a rather large Vong sporting a rather nasty weapon. By his estimation, it looked like some sort of...rocket launcher perhaps? Whatever the case was, he certainly did not want that shooting at Halik and company. Drawing a breath, he centered his focus and lined up the shot. His finger twitched upon the trigger and the weapon responded with a platter of recoil.

And, now sporting a rather stylish hole in the center of its brow, the Vong fell flat on its back.

"Watch for heavy weapons down there."

"Noted," Halik said over the comm. Vong were a vile race with their many bio created weapons. It seemed as if they were always coming up with some kind of new strange bug or creature to spew death. At times Halik almost envied them for their variety of weapons. Mechanical weapons were varied to be sure, but it was just not quite the same. They also lacked the mystique and surprise which could be found in Vong-formed weapons. A blaster almost always looked like a blaster even if there were different kinds it was just not the to the same variety of Vong. In the end though, some of that was always just a bit moot. After all, all of it was intended to kill. It only differed upon how.

Upon laying down fire at the goup of Vong it was very evident that they needed to not stay in one place. The group that got bogged down would surely lose this battle. Halik motioned for his men to follow him and they began to fire at any near by enemy. Any that died was good, but the action was more to keep them from being fired upon. Halik had an interesting goal in mind. Not far away was a conveyor belt which had long since been damaged and was no longer functional. The advantage was in the fact that whatever contents it had brought down the factory would be brought into a large covered area, likely where it was processed and altered in the production process. Halik only saw cover and a direct line behind the enemy lines though.

The process of getting their took time. Dodging between cover. Assisting other positions through fire. Halik's focus remained vigilant, but so much of war required trusting his men to back him up. The eyes on the upper level would have to be keen as they were the most significant threat to the group moving through the ground floor.
