The Seige of Bak'mral (Thila)

[Meira]

Prologue

Nestled upon the edge of the encroaching Sith battle line, Thila has served as the headquarters for a number of Republic forces in the Outer Rim. The main concentration of these forces is located within the fortress of Bak’mral, a giant structure built into the Escalore mountain range. Within the fortress is General Velsim who has been organizing Republic defenses whilst the Blades and the Senate organize the bulk of the Republic military.

This small planet has drawn the attention of the Sith. Its significance to the Republic war effort on the Outer Rim is substantial; capturing the fortress would lead them closer to the final defense of Taris and eliminating the Republic General would help to shift the morale in both forces.

But it will not be an easy feat, a number of Blades have been working with General Velsim whilst the majority of the Republic’s forces are being organized, and whilst information uncovered by S.A.I. operatives indicates that the planet’s orbital defenses are at an all time low due to the ongoing war, the fortress of Bak’mral is still heavily fortified. The mountains provide a natural defense and combined with powerful anti-aircraft systems, aerial bombardment is too costly an endeavor for the Sith forces, who instead have resorted to invading the fortress through a combination of a land attack and quick-drop shock troopers.

With the Sith army approaching and no hope of reinforcements, the Republic forces find themselves nearly completely trapped within their fortress of Bak’mral.

Please sign up for this battle below. Once enough positions have been filled for all sides, discussion and the actual thread can begin!

[Dr. Jake]

Well, I have a NCO Republic Soldier NPC, and I'd be willing to contribute. I don't really want to make the commitment yet though, due to my rather hectic schedule.

[Talau the Ever-Lurking]

I'm willing to put Rahja (Rep. Spec. Ops) in. She'd certainly be beneficial and needs some attention. That, or I can have Zharra (Rep. Navy) come with her frigate....but this seems like more of a planet-side dealy-o.

Anyway, willing to throw both of them in.

[10Tickler]

I offer two Characters, take your pick, Either Zaenia Urto, my Sith Assassin, or Silene Stellata, my Jedi Healer.

[Apillis]

Lord Allvitende and Silens Six are once again ready for action.

[mitchell]

Toss my Gray Jedi Shawn O'connor in with either blade or republic. I don't mind which but I am willing to bring his elite merc group in to kill some Sith.

[Dean]

I have a Sith, but she is new to the sith. could she join in the battle? Or did you have to sign up somewhere else to take part in the war entirely?

[Rugs]

Even though I've already got a lot on my plate, I'm gonna tentatively say I'll hop in, against my better judgement. Aurellius, Sith Order

[Cain]

I'll volunteer Jack Makura, my Sith Apprentice.

[Dire Wolf]

I volunteer Tahlia, my Jedi Knight

[Talau the Ever-Lurking]

BAD RUGS! you still owe me postses for three people *shakefist*

[Dutch]

Save it for skype Tal :3 dun spam story threads! D:

Aaaand if we need any sith, i'll throw Renata's apprentice in, Jessoin Zarander. But if filled already, s'all good

[Zarkan]

I'll volunteer Lieutenant Vaelis Savic Republic special forces.

[Meira]

Dr. Jake: I'll add you when/if you decide you have the time.

Tal: I've added Rahja since, as you said, this is more of a ground based fight.

Eclipse(Gunter as you're going by now: I can add both of your characters if you'd like. So long as you know to keep them away from each other, which I'm sure you do. Let me know and I'll put them on the roster.

Apillis: I've added Allvitende. Remind me again of where Six goes? Is it Sith Mil?

Mitchell: I'm sorry but Grey Jedi and mercs aren't in on this event.

Aarati: Yes, your sith can join. Is the name the same as your username?

Rugs, Cain, Dire, Dutch, and Zark: All added.

[Dean]

Yes, My name is the same.

[Jace]

I think I'll throw Jace in this for the Blades (y)

[Apillis]

Eh, yeah, Six is an Imperial Intelligence (SAI) agent/sniper, so Sith Military would be appropriate.

[Jerek]

My Republic Admiral could jump in to stop Sith reinforcements coming in or he could be placed on the ground as some sort of extra battle organizer/strategist, since Admiral is basically the same thing as a General.

If not him, I could throw Jerek, my Sith Initiate, in there if I can finish him in time.

[Dire Wolf]

Admirals are most definitely not the same thing as generals. Saying that grand naval strategy is the same as grand land based strategy is like saying that a microwave is the same as a toaster. Either way, we definitely need more sith in the other thread.

[Foxfire]

No sith action is complete without ....Honog, noghri sith and maked one. As always this noghri is up for war.
