A self proclaimed tin-pot dictator finds out he has to pay the
dues for his stupidity, good! Nothing shakes a “karen” up than
the owner of the pink slips showing up.
Not good, maybe they can deflect them with the grav drives?
just enough to skim the atmosphere and go harmlessly back
into space long enough for the Toby’s and Daggers to hunt
them down maybe?
4080 missiles! What were they planning to do? Sterilize
the planet? I figured they wanted to send the Empire a
message but isn’t that just a tad extreme? Even Motha?
This was a “Last Stand”. ” and, I’ll be the last sanding.!” …
Motha / Core now has no ships, no crews, and no money.!!!
i mean it costs ‘millions’ too pull a ship out of mothballs…
and unless they modded existing missiles,. out fitting new
tubes in the ships would cost trillions… not to mention the
cost of adding the FTL…
… so, basic costs. minimum life support (food an water.),
ship supplies, modded missiles, adding FTL, and powering
the FTL… yeah the “wallet” is empty…
You don’t think that their amassed wealth could be enough?
Remember the lifted eyebrows seen in a couple of instances,
when ‘foreigners’ have been presented with a pricelist.
But you’re right, I wouldn’t give a bent 5-cent for their chances
of turning this in the core’s favour.
This clearly the last stand, hoping that the
Empire will get scared and give up…. NOT!
This isn’t good, but the core still has no clue
as to the power that the Navy wields in
those grav drives. Even powered those missiles
still have to follow basic physics.
Local cop sees more, knows more and trusts more the Wolf
Empire than his own government. Says something about the
likely path of the future. Even if he does serve HIS emperor.
He’s been learning enough about the Wolf Empire to recognize it’s acceptance
of his own Emperor as a positive endorsement.
Especially as Teresa attended the wedding.
RW was suffering from Lewy body dementia. LBD
produces symptoms that mimic both Parkinson’s
and Alzheimer’s plus hallucinations and other phy-
sical ailments. It is actually worse than either Par-
kinsons or Alzheimers. Approximately 1.5 million
Americans. I suspect RW wanted to go out while he
was still (mostly) himself. When my liver was act-
ing up in the 10’s, I was totally aware my mind was
not running right. It was terrifying!
The councilors left to move.
Now we know what the red and
white pile in the corner was. It is the
late, ‘lamented’ captain.
Wasn’t he mentioned as “Admiral Skee” one time?

Admiral = panel 7,. captain = panel 8.

just a reminder: they don’t have heavy elements.!
(at least not alot.)
so,,, they have to do ‘destruction’ the old fashion way…
as in “Tons of T&T”..
math , “2800 each” in first two = 5600,.
1200 in second = 6800,. 80 in third = 6880…
and since these missiles are “Massive”,
they might be going for their version
of ‘the god rod…’
Oops! I read that as “2800 in the first two”, meaning
a total of 2800 in the first two. As the Japanese might
say, ” Tsure shimasu!” (I screwed up.)

“What do they mass?” not “What do they weigh?” Nice.

>2800 in each of the first two,
>1200 in the third,
>then only 80 in the last.
Did they run out of missiles? Is a single dump a best practice?
Would not some be reserved for unexpected hard points :{
No, they finally noticed their flagship flashing it’s running lights in the “stand by” pattern.
