OOC:...AJDSALJFFH ORPH...I WAS FINISHING MY POST...GRRR...Now I have to do it over...Aw...
Seeing the new, smaller ship, the Lorcar weren't very impressed. However, once they saw its payload, they took it seriously. As the Anti-Psyc Shield wasn't up at the time, they used the remaining Psychic power to weaken the LOD and stop the Rail Gun(not very hard, just need to take out its inertia and its gone). the LOD, however, being light, wasn't able to be fully dispersed, and so they took damage from it. This broke their concentration, and so they loosed their Super-Psychic Scream too early for it to be at maximum power(3/5 max power). Still, it was a powerful force to be reckoned with; capable of literally overloading the minds of the unprotected and reduce the ability of the brains of their foes, basically turning them into vegetables.
As for those ground troops, they didn't SEE anything...Since the Lorei had already mopped up the Mind Shredders. Well, they didn't see anything until the Planet Cracker nearest them blasted its way out of the crust of the planet, letting out a massive roar, and proceed to smash into them headfirst-that was where it had decided to make its next burrow. They were engulfed by the monstrosity, and probably killed by its digestive enzymes.
The Yellow Jackets were just getting madder and madder at these beings...And as such, they followed the fighters more closely. If the Scream destroyed the minds of the pilots, which it probably would, then they'd tear apart the ships for the metal to use as ammo, and eat the pilots as well. If it didn't kill them, then the only difference is that they'd still be firing on them.
The Quartet Shot and Bone fragments hit the mark, FOR MASSIVE DAMAGE! The I89, hit by both this and the Gravity shot, writhed in pain before going silent. The other Hornet and the Wasp, feeling its own psychic mind go silent, turned their heads to look at their comrade, a strange Psychic signal being broadcast. It seemed to be...Saddness. The signal wouldn't interfere with the emotions of any of the other beings, but they would be able to feel it, sort of. More that they would know of their saddness. Then, it began to turn to anger...
The entirety of the Lorcar Mind in the area was awakened. Droves of Bee, BumbleBee, Yellow Jacket, and Worker Bee Castes flew from all of the larger ships, even the deceased Hornet. The Bees, upon seeing the missiles fired from the Thanatos, tried combining their Psyker abilities which, while weak, would be able to push them back. No dice, due to the shield. So they instead swarmed the missiles, grappling them...And heading for the Archive and Lorei ships. They felt the nanomachines devouring their flesh, and so the small percentage that had swarmed those missiles went suicidally for the enemy ships, determined to either win, or give the opposing force the fear of the Lorcar in this battle. The worker bees that went out of the ships(a few remaining to keep patching up the Wasp) went to the dead Hornet, and took all of the missiles from it...And the BioPods full of Ground-Battle Castes. They then brought it to the other Hornet and Wasp...And then, they were all fired. The final stand of the battle...A exodus of death, as the Bio Pods were fired. ALL of them, millions of Lorcar headed for the planet below, as well as the remaining Planet Crackers. And so...The final push began...
OOC:Orph, just so you know, I dont plan on any of them to return to Maltruse. I never planned on winning this.
Also, would someone please approve/disapprove the Mechera ships and Gregory before its next week? XP
