Fiction:Coming of Eternal War/Year 1

The Eternal war has begun, the first year is marked by massive and large battles, all sides still show off their whole strength. With the attack of the Troodontids something much bigger than they'd ever imagine had been started. The battle for survival had begun.

Empire at War


Supreme General Thor looked the army. Only a small part of the entire army of the Troodontid Empire had gathered, but still there were androids as afr as he could see. An army that the Troodontids couldn`t have imagined some years ago. But that was before the attack of the alien spaceship, before their meeting with the Dominatus, before their struggle during the Great Deceiver. But unlike most they came strengthened out of this war. With new allies, new technologies, but also new enemys. They had made peace with all of them, except one. This one was and is the Imperium of War. And this empire was the cause for the gathering of the Troodontid Troops. Due new technologies, the Troodontids could now easily reach the Imperial home systems. Thor got loose and turned back to the colony. It was time for the last checks in security...before the first step to Eternal War would be done.

The First Step
Camouflaged Carrier Ships reached the orbits of strategic Imperial Worlds deploying hidden satellites and missiles. Those instantly entered the orbit of their enemy and then deactivated to minimize the chance of being noticed. The Imperial Forces had in fact noticed the hyperspace jumps of the Carriers, but they dismissed them as simple mistakes in the technology. For once the weapons remained unnoticed.

The Second Step
A Waptoria Beetle-class Cruiser docked the Builder-class. W'tze ordered his guards to stay the ship, wary of the Troodontid-Dominatus alliance, even mow the Drakodominatus Tyranny was gone.


 * Troodontid AI - Welcome to our ship, Waptorian alliance. wea re pleased about your visit.
 * W'tze - I'm quite glad too. Many council thought this was a trap, and didn't want me to go.
 * Troodontid AI - No, don`t worry. This is not a trap. We have no interest in attacking you.
 * W'tze - Yes, I know. Well, I believe this meeting was planned because of a cooperation, right?
 * Draicon - Yes, in fact it is...in two matters.

W'tze turned around too see the Troodontid President.


 * Draicon - But follow me to the meeting room. There we can talk more freely.
 * W'tze - As you wish.

W'tze followed Draichon to the room.

They have one of the most powerful and dreaded fleets as well as military. A few months ago it might not have been possible to destroy them, but sitaution has changed. With their aid to the Dominatus and their alliance with the CyraEmp they had to split up their fleet. Now only a part of it is left in Mirus. However they have gained a huge amount of Tyranny Technology since the latter's defeat, so they are more dangerous than ever. We need to strike now, or we might never get the opportunity again to destroy them. But we need to plan and coordinate our attack. We can`t allow them to notice us before it is too late for them. We are currently sending hidden satellites to their most important planets in Mirus. W'tze - We will strike fast, de-terraforming their planets while your androids kill the survivors. We can't allow any battle to turn long-lasting, or the Imperium will win.
 * Draicon - At first we wuld like to talk about some shared research. If I remember it right you have very advanced bio-technologies? We would really like to do some research in this field.
 * W'tze - Hmm that's fine.
 * Draicon - Good, I hope this will be a profitable alliance for both of us. And so we come to the second purpose of our meeting.
 * Draicon - You might know that we only have one major enemy left, the Imperium of War. We also know that they are your enemies as well. We plan to defeat them ultimately before they become to powerful. But let me explain the situation:
 * W'tze - I'll ready our bioweapons and such. Maybye I can also give some bioweapon designs to you, as an extra support for your armies. If we could work together more tight, we might be able to create a virus with is specifically meant to kill Dragowar. But for now, let's stay low.
 * Draicon - We usually are agianst biological weapons, but in this acse there might be no other option. We will give you message when we will make our first strike when we have ulimately prepared for this war meaning when all satellites are orbiting Imperial planets.
 * Draicon - If you know anyone else who could help us, ask them, but don`t risk to ask them if you think they could help the Imperium.
 * W'tze - Don't worry, the Unified Alliance of Enlightenment won't aid the Imperium, we are part of them.
 * Draicon - Good.
 * W'tze - Then everything is said. Good day to you.
 * Draicon - Good day to you as well.

The Third Step
Thor looked over to Kvasir, Draicon and Teruclus. the three had been discussing plans about the spaceships for quite a while. The scientists had found a new highly robust material which now was put on the fleets that would fly to Mirus. The first ships had already got the new alloy and now it was discussed if the matter should be added to all spaceships.


 * Kvasir - This alloy is highly protective, it might be vital for this war.
 * Teruculus - Well, we might not even need it. Our shields have served us well so far.
 * Draicon - I have to agree with Teruculus. We might not need the alloy anyhow, our shields are nearly impenetrable.
 * Kvasir - But our shields are far from unfailable. The Imperium of War has already managed to break through them, they can do it again. The alloy could allow us to fight even if the shields are down.
 * Draicon - But we might also miss our time frame and the Imperium of War could already have the advantage. Within every hour we wait it gets more likely taht they notice our satellites.
 * Kvasir - Our satellites might remain unnoticed even far after we are gone. No, we have to add that alloy to all of our ships.
 * Teruculus - But it stops the Quantum replicator from producing other things like new ships what could be even more vital. You forget we have to rely on a single one since you are too bungling to build more!
 * Kvasir - I deprecate that reproach! We are working on them as fast as we can or - may I say - as any Troodontid can, but yet there are important parts missing.

Now Thor steps into the round.


 * Thor - Well, my dear friends, you miss the point. We have to do all that things, we are in war. And for war you always ahve to prepare well. May I suggest another roption. We add the new alloy to the first wave of invading ships, then we put back the Neutridium production and focus on producing new ships which already have the new alloy. We will only send ships with the alloy to Mirus, while the less protected ships stay here till they get improved.
 * Draicon - Very good idea. I think we will do it like that. That`s why you are the supreme commander and not we. You are the best strategist of us by far.

Both Kvasir and Teruculus agree to the plan as well. Soon the time of the attack has come.
