The Soulless One landed on a landing platform connected to the massive spire of the main Geonosian hive. He stepped out, walking past a couple of Geonosian guards. Behind them was the door into a large conference room...

Lissarkh shook her head. "They'll be too busy with Trandosha to bother with where we ran off to, mainly because they know we can't run forever. They'll find us soon enough. I just hope we're prepared by then..."

The Imperial Shuttle flew through the air, the massive hive in sight. A landing platform was in sight and the Imperials already assumed to just land there. Revan remembered the last time he met Grievous and Serephir in person. All three were injured with each three suffering a lethal injury, Revan knew he was completely lucky to have made it out. The Dark Lord relaxed however...or at least tried to. His wife's presence was the only thing keeping him calm at the moment.

The Imperial Shuttle moved through the air as it then proceeded to land. As the landing was completeled...the entrance ramp opened at once as Revan walked out, along side the Empress. The pair paused as they looked around as the ARC Trooper Escorts walked out themselves...

Spectre's own ship landed soon after the Soulless One, the armored figure stepping out shortly after, heading after Grievous, not actually intent on listening to their meeting, but instead watching for any offensive attempts on the planet as a whole...

The Geonosians guarding the door hissed aggressively at Revan and the Empress, but let them pass, into the conference room. The room itself was relatively bland, with consoles where B1s sat along the walls, along with tactical screens and other various things. The center of the room was dominated by a massive, holographic, oval-shaped table, and at one end stood Sun Fac, the Archduke of Geonosis, standing next to Ivpikkis and Shriwirr, who had arrived earlier, and Grievous. "Take a place," said Grievous, motioning to the area around the table. There were no seats, so the two Sith would be forced to stand...

Columns of Daleks marched across the former UNSC colony world, wiping out what little resistance remained. Their ships, which bore a resemblance to massive versions of the classic "flying saucer," stayed in orbit, read to repel any attempted counterattacks...

The two Sith looked around before advancing, placing themselves on their part of the table. A fair distance away from the others. "Nice place General" The Dark Lady of the Sith simply said, trying to comment on the...hospitality. The Empress looked around, taking glances at the infamous war leaders of each respective fraction. Revan of course didnt say anything. It was slightly uncomfortable but the Dark Lord was mainly focused on preparing to activate his lightsaber should the event need to. Considering the past encounters, it would seem most fitting for the area to be uncomfortable. Regardless...the meeting was about to take place and all they needed was a certain arrival of a Vardian General.

in moments, the Vardian shuttle landed, Serephir and the crew following into the hive. it wasn't long before they reached the area of the meeting, Serephir spotting all the leaders of the TGDA, as well as Revan and a woman who he assumed was either his wife, or a high ranking General, though her appearance suggested the former. he found himself an empty spot at the holographic table and looked at the others, nodding in respect to Sun Fac, Ivpikkis, Shriwirr, and the other commanders of the TGDA...

by **dinoman666** » Sat May 23, 2009 2:29 am

The TGDA and Ssi-Ruuk leaders nodded back, with the exception of the black-scaled Shriwirr, who was simply there to defend Ivpikkis to the death. Grievous started by saying, "Now that everyone is here, we have business to discuss: taking back Trandosha and destroying these Vong slimeballs before they do too much damage."

by **TyrannoTitan** » Sat May 23, 2009 2:48 am

Spectre was leaning once again on a nearby wall some distance from the meeting, close enough to hear them, but didn't really pay attention to their discussion...

by **Anaclagon** » Sat May 23, 2009 2:56 am

"Well it's obvious a frontal attack wont work. We're dealing with tens of thousands of Vong Ships. Even if we did somehow got past their fleets, they still have countless of warriors in the planet itself and the only way to reclaim the planet is to secure it completely. So...who has ideas" Revan asked simply. His eyes scanned the room but his hidden face remained behind that infamous mask of his. The armored Sith Lord then folded his arms, a typical habit from him.

by **dinoman666** » Sat May 23, 2009 3:00 am

"We could try and assassinate their leader," suggested Lissarkh. "I'm sure he'd be more than happy for a duel to the death, especially from Grievous." The cyborg nodded. "I agree. I think I saw the Vong leader on Trandosha when I went down there. If we can kill him, the rest of the Vong might retreat, at least temporarily, enough to put up adequate defenses."

by **Anaclagon** » Sat May 23, 2009 3:05 am

"Even if we do get to the planet side, find their leader and kill him...I doubt even a death to their leader would stop them. From my past encounters and from what I know...the vong are looking for new territory. A new place to call home...confused they would become but they wouldnt leave back to their own galaxy where chances are, there is nothing for them. This is...their one last chance for survival opportunity. And that's even if we succeed" Revan argued back. The Sith Lord took a glance at Serephir, curious on what he was planning.

by **The Kingpin** » Sat May 23, 2009 10:11 am

"Regardless of what the Vong see this galaxy as, they cannot be allowed to expand. they may strive to survive, but i think i speak not only for everyone in this room, but everyone in the Galaxy that i am not willing to let my people face extinction simply because those bloodthirsty beasts wish to continue multiplying. What i suggest is to send a squadron of stealthed craft. preferably ones with very advanced stealth systems and very penetrative weaponry. first step is to find out the Vong Leader's location. a spy probe would fit that purpose well. if he's planetside as Grievous last saw him, it should make our job relatively easy. with the Trandoshan defenses weakened as they are from the attack, a stealthed assassination team would be easy to send in. i'm not talking about small drones like what i have accompanying me," said Serephir, gesturing to the large black, tendrilled drone, it's optical orbs glowing a malevolent shade of red. "...but rather, of a powerful long range strike drone. something comparable to the T-40, which, Grievous, you may remember we used to trail Sovereign. if you have an adequate equivelant, we could send the task force in. we could organise a series of distraction Probes at a different point a fair distance from Trandosha, but close enough to draw attention from Geonosis. under that cover, our strike craft could lock onto the Vong leader using the information being transmitted by the spy probe, and obliterate him outright. the psychological impact it'd have on the Vong would effect their ability to fight confidently. if we could eliminate several Vong Elites in one attack, say, the Leader, the General in charge of coordinating the attack and perhaps one of his subordinates or so, it'd probably inflict a big enough blow on Morale to simply scare them out of their attack. i have numerous other options as to how to go through with this assassination, including ones to be used should the Vong Leader be preparing to leave Trandosha for his flagship, but first, we need to decide on whether or not to go through with it"...

by **Anaclagon** » Sat May 23, 2009 1:29 pm

"It's sounds possible however, the Vong are willing to sacrifice thousands upon thousands of their own. Even if we take out a thousand of them...I doubt it will do. From what I understand...the Vong already have leaders chosen in the event the current Overlord dies. Each potential new overlord are treated like their heir themselves. Due to their crucial importance, they would be well guarded and spread apart. So even if we do kill the current overlord, I dont see why a new heir wont just rise" Revan responded. He had meet the the Vong up close...fought them, killed them yet there were things they gladly bragged about as if trying to create the mentality that the Vong were unstoppable.

by **dinoman666** » Sat May 23, 2009 2:45 pm

"Do you have your own plan, then, Revan?" asked Grievous. "You've dealt with the Vong before, so how do you think we should go about fighting them?"

by **Anaclagon** » Sat May 23, 2009 3:24 pm

"To be honest...once they took control of a planet...I deemed it lost and I made sure that the planet's surface was reduced to molten slag. It's was the only sure way on making sure the Vong were obliterated entirely on the surface. The Vong...once they gained a planet, they began to terraform it to make it more suitable for them. Odd diseases were produced, other alien plant life... I wasnt sure how to reverse this so the only way to destroy them entirely was to simply eradicate the surface. And I'm pretty sure you want an alternative" Revan responded. During the Vong's lighting fast attacks...there was no time on trying to figure out how to save a planet...it was better lost to belong to them. Revan really didnt have a plan, he was hoping the others would think of something, but something else came to him but he knew it would be risky and would rather avoid mentioning it

by **dinoman666** » Sat May 23, 2009 3:53 pm

Grievous slammed his metal fist against the edge of the conference table, leaving a sizable dent that even made Shriwirr flinch slightly from the resulting sound. "I will NOT destroy my home planet! I would rather fight the Vong Overlord one-on-one! At least that way we have a chance!" Ivpikkis whistled in his strange, musical language, and A-4D, who was standing nearby, translated it: "Ivpikkis agrees. He thinks we should at least delay the Vong by killing their leader, or a least a high-ranking caste member." He also translated Sun Fac's clicking response: "Maybe the one in charge of their fleet?"

Warlord Gnawdwell stared into the transparent container, alongside the horribly mutated Throt the Unclean. The container was extremely tough, able to withstand everything up to and including a bullet from a Jezzail, at least for a limited time. The two Skaven watched the motionless, amorphous blob, tentacles laying deathly still on the ground. Soon, a door in the side of the compartment opened, and a Skaven Packmaster, armed with a vicious-looking whip, forced a pitiful-looking slave inside, then shut the door. The frightened Skaven huddled in a corner, watching the blob fearfully. Suddenly, the thing reacted to the Skaven's presence, tentacles lashing out and grabbing the slave, dragging him towards the trembling mass of grotesque flesh. Struggling and screeching, the slave bit down n one of the tentacles, but it had no effect, except cause a small stream of green blood to drip out, which immediately slithered with a mind of its own up into the slave's mouth, causing him to cough and wheeze. As the bottom half of the Skaven was dragged into the blob's body, something even more horrible happened: the blob caused a skinless, horrid-looking copy of the slave's head to protrude from it, followed by a pair of arms, which latched onto the slave's own head, drilling its fingers into the Skaven's flesh, soon ripping the skin clean off. The dead slave was ragged into the blob completely, and it wasn't long until the rest of the blob had turned itself into a perfect copy of the Skaven slave. The creature looked around blankly, then sat down boredly in a corner, as if waiting to be released. Gnawdwell and Throt grinned maliciously. "What shall we name-call this... thing?" asked Throt. Gnawdwell laughed and replied, "The Thing! Yes-yes!"

"If there were a way i could get a few drones into a few of their worldships, i think i could quite easily eradicate everything on board, including the ship itself, in a matter of hours" said Serephir, mentioning a thought. "Or minutes, if i could get enough of one particular drone on board. one of them could kill as many as a hundred of the Vong if they were close enoguh together" he added...

by **Anaclagon** » Sat May 23, 2009 4:01 pm

"We could of course...divide the Vong Forces. We can have one Vong Fleet follow us back towards the Empire. Another fleet back here...and another Vong Fleet to Vardia. The Vong will then be ambushed from a fleet that will attack Trandosha which will attempt to destroy the Vong Fleet still above the planet as we send ground forces into the planet and attempt to retake Trandosha by seizing the main city. This is however is full of risks...casualties will be enormous and even if we pull thousands of Vong Ships away from Trandosha, do we still have the military power to retake Trandosha?" This time the Dark Lady of the Sith spoke...offering her idea.

by **dinoman666** » Sat May 23, 2009 4:14 pm

Grievous shrugged. "If we do divide them, Serephir can use his drone idea to get rid of his batch quickly, then assist you in eradicating your force. I can keep the ones at Trandosha distracted for a good amount of time, so we can finish them off after you two are done. Let's just hope their leader isn't that strategically savvy."

by **The Kingpin** » Sat May 23, 2009 4:47 pm

"My Drones won't be able to cause any serious damage to the Vong if they're all aboard their ships. i'll need to get them aboard through infiltration. hence my suggestion to send distraction probes. i could launch several stealthed containers near Vong forces present on Trandosha and in the space around them. they're small enough not to attract too much attention, and a varient of the camouflage systems rigged to these pods would give their holographic projectors the ability to make them appear to be small asteroids. one varient of these drones carries a highly destructive biological weapon. it has the potential to turn an entire Worldship against itself. turn the Vong inside against eachother and decay the the ship to the point it cannot be used for space travel. it would quite literally kill the ship if i could get it on board. the alternative varient is an advanced explosive which, in sufficient numbers, would surpass even the greatest missiles we could fire at them. and seeing as the ships wouldn't have been made to sustain such damage from the inside rather than out, it'd most likely obliterate it. however, as i said, it depends entirely on infiltration." said Serephir as he looked between the various faction leaders in the room...
