>>5170741>Move the Blackstone Fortress to Lucius>Write in>Operation FortitudeWe're going to trick the Xenos.
Firstly, we will move the Blackstone Fortress to Lucius. This will, hopefully already have a small null array field being generated of a sorts.
Secondly, we will pick a nearby system with a dwarf star that registers similarly to the heart of Lucius. At that system, we will bring in large falsification sensor generators that will create a lot of artificial binaric data, factorum noises, ship movements, even have a few vessels there make regular short range warp transits.
Thirdly, in the path of the Xenos, we will leave derelict ships with crew and plans and possibly some dead xenos bodies specifically referencing to "Operation Fortitude".
This false data plan will be a "struck of luck" for the aliens as it details a very powerful conspiracy in which we have wiped almost all of our magos minds all the way up to TalOS himself into creating a fake coordinate for Lucius (that being the real one) specifically in an area of Psychic Nullspace. The idea being that when the aliens approach this Psychic nullspace, we know they will falter, and be especially prone to the large void bomb we have planted there with a signature that matches the actual heart of Lucius. Meanwhile the "real" coordinates of Lucius will be the decoy system.
The effect is the Xenos will be tricked into believing that the real Lucius is fake and an ambush, and the decoy system is the actual coordinates. At the decoy system, ideally a place with lots of asteroid fields and other places suitable for defense (and somewhat distant from Lucius) we can use as a rallying point for our fleet as well as build up an actual ambush and delaying defense strategy. The more tenaciously we fight, the more they will think the system is the real deal. Any discrepancies or appearances that the decoy system is really just a star with a facade of industrial rings and holograms will be thought of as an advanced stealth generation system we are conveying on the planet.
This will hopefully buy us the five months we need to ramp up the blackstone fortress into full operation.
