Re: Open Orbit

*When the Poisoned Hawkbat had completed its mission, the ship pulled away from the planets naturally formed gravity well and began to move towards hyperspace.* *There wasn't much to be said for the pig men of Gamorr. They weren't all that different from those found on Pzob, save for a few odd changes in dialect. It seemed that once you knew one pig man, you knew all pig men.* *The Carrack-class Light Cruiser streaked across the star line as it accelerated into hyperspace, leaving the system behind as little more than a distant memory.*

Re: Open Orbit

*Warping out of the deep black, two appeared outside the planets naturally formed gravity well. Slowly they drifted towards Gamorr's atmosphere, entering the thick green cloud and passing through the gaseous barrier. The hull of either assault shuttle was marked with the all-too familiar emblem of the Eye, well known out on the edge of the Rim. Their transponder codes relayed the twin pair as the "Spined Viper" and "Gnarled Hawk-Bat".* *It was somewhat unusual for this class of shuttle to make a hyperspace trip, despite being equipped with units for travel. However, the journey from the cradle to Gamorr was relatively short, both worlds holding an orbital position at the edge of known space. It only took the one jump to reach their destination.*

*Communications silence was maintained, not that it was really necessary.* *Gamorreans were savages, dim witted and only useful for their brawn. They had neither the capacity nor desire to improve themselves, which made them easy to take advantage of.* *Both shuttles disappeared from sight as they entered the planets atmosphere, heading on a direct course for Jugsmuk.*

Re: Open Orbit

*As the two Gamma-class Assault Ships exited the atmosphere and returned to orbit, they passed several transports that had just emerged from hyperspace. TSTS freighters arrived in the system not more than a few minutes prior, with holds full of to be distributed around the planets orbit.* *The satellites were not armed, but they were equipped with state of the art sensory equipment and a magnified holo-recording device. This would allow the units to snap digitally enhanced photo of the planet, with zooming capability that would even let them discern one individual from another. They also came equipped with a signal booster for ground based probes. The signal itself would come from an orbital facility not yet in place, but when it arrived it would be able to coordinate probe units on the planets surface. These units were important for a variety of reasons, namely resource gathering. Gamorr was teeming with life and the TSTS planned on taking advantage of that fact.* *As each freighter came upon their target destination, the contents of their cargo bay was voided and a satellite was dropped into orbit. Maneuvering thrusters allowed the devices to maintain their position, thus preventing them from falling into the planets atmosphere. Seventy-two were deployed in all, spread as close to equal distance around the planet as was possible. Once done, the freighters left the way they came, following the assault shuttles into hyperspace.*

Re: Open Orbit

*The stars exploded into sight as a VT-49 Decimator entered the system via hyperspace. Slowing down as it entered realspace, the transport sized vessel skipped across the void until it came to a complete halt several moments later. Aboard the ship, the Acolyte known as Caspian Knowles began to operate the long rang communication rig. He bounced the signal back and forth from several different systems before actively seeking his target. Once he acquired the proper location, he spoke into the microphone and began to transmit his voice.* *The target in question?* *Sienar Fleet Systems in the Lianna system.*

Re: Open Orbit

*Ten XS stock light freighters move into Gammorean oribital space and terrority. On board each ship is exactly 2 protocol driods and at the current number of 5000 ewok soldiers. They carried the usual staple: 5 rocks and 2 spears. Chirpa was at the command as he usual was. He was having a special song play through all the commlinks called: . The ewoks started to wonder why on earth had Chirpa called them to arms. Then without missing a beat, bacon videos started playing. And, the ewoks knew what was up. As, they entered the area where orbital control took over they were nervous. But, they did want bacon. And, thus they started cheering in ewokese for bacon!*

Re: Open Orbit

*Bacon, the backbone of the Sith Empire. Without it, they were lost.*

*As the stock freighters entered Gamorrean space and approached the planet, one of the Pig-men stationed at the traffic control station down in Jugsmuk noticed the blip on the sensors. From his small minded understanding, the blip meant a magical sky carriage was on its way.* *He'd seen his human counterpart speak into the microphone at the station when such blips appeared, though Bob was currently on his lunch break. The Gamorrean squealed with delight.* *Now he'd get to try saying "hello".* *Grognak spoke into the microphone at his station, thereby hailing the freighters.*

:: *Snort* *Snort* *Squeal* *Snort* *Long Squeal* *Short Snort*. ::

*Which when translated from Gamorrese meant...well, I'm not entirely sure what it meant. I don't speaking Gamorrean. Grognak was probably just saying hello.*

*Either way, with Bob on his lunch break and the way clear to the Gamorrean village of Jugsmuk, it was probably safe to proceed.*

Re: Open Orbit

*Chirpa ordered the ships to replay hello into their commlinks but most Ewoks couldnt speak basic. So, the gamorraen was as confused as the Ewoks. Chirpa decided to send the ships down to the ground. And, as he did, he went to the back of the ship and put on his brown vest. The ships would start their landing decent. Bacon was in the ear and the ewoks were hungry or they had gas, who knows?*

Re: Open Orbit

*Orbital control logged the transports arrival in its databanks. The information would later be uploaded to the NOE database, but for now it was simply stored in the local depot.* *They didn't get too many visitors these days as most of the coming and goings came from the TSTS, delivering wood and departing with bacon.* *The satellites left a clear path from orbit to the village of Jugsmuk upon Gamorr's surface.*

*An un-armed mine-layer arrives from Hyperspace and begins placing it's payload of 864 Empion Mines about the system, many are placed near the hyperspace exits of the system.*
