The odds were starting to look better and better when it came down to it. The Mechanicum held under the Machine God’s grace a total of twenty eight ships in the battle. In return for the twelve ships total that were lost the Xenos were struck for almost half of their fleet.
The once mighty fleet of seventy ships were cut down to forty eight and dropping. The exchange in the open void scored twenty. fifteen of their ships were lost in the transit to this position. Now that they were here they were losing thirteen of their ships to this inefficient trade.
The Xenos knew this well enough and TalOS watched as they began to move closer.
+So they have grown tired of the Fortress.+ TalOS said to himself as he leaned into his position, +Inform Station A-1 that they likely be boarded via short range teleportation when the Xenos close in. How are our boarding crews coming?+
+They are coming along well, Arch Dominus.+ Informed an Adept as he sent parcels of information to TalOS, +A majority are closing in on their objectives. However 13% of the boarding parties are experiencing heavier resistance and won’t be able to complete their aloted tasks.+
TalOS nodded as he locked eyes on the special ships, +What is the status on crafts designated X-13 and 14?+
+Unknown. We are picking up Psychic readings going across the entire ship in a more even manner than its sisters. It is assumed that whatever material it is made of is more Psycho-Reactive in an attempt to improve the latent systems.+ Announce a Magos as he responded, +We have cracked its shield several times but they are regenerating at an alarming rate.+
TalOS nodded as he turned his attention back towards the Xenos. Just as he did they started to make a movement TalOS expected them to commit to sooner or later.
They were approaching the Station, likely in an attempt to either board it or strike it down with overwhelming force.
TalOS looked at the unusual ship with interest as this happened. Those ships likely contained the Sloog Admiral of this fleet meaning if it was taken down it would result in a total route.
>TalOS shall board it with the Steel Guard
>See if they can get close enough to ram it. Can’t have shields if firepower is coming from close range.
>Try figuring out the Xenos Tech and using that info try and shoot at the exact spot the Shields need to form.
