Galactic Marshall Perun was attacked in flagrant disregard for all accepted conventions of warfare(Apart from when we did it to RsR ;D) The attacker, Himack, is a high ranking member of the Creators alliance and members Skulkrin bait and Raven have begun a defence. Be on your guard for further attacks and contact Perun to discuss any assisstance you may be able to offer. Please note that since Perun is outside of the Midnight quadrant, it will be necessary to have Carrier ships to enable inter-quadrant travel
More details to follow.

About attacking RSR: I merely farmed one of their planets with a Vampire for three ticks. No animal was harmed during that action.

I've only been able to spare about 30 Corvettes and 7 Frigates, all my forces are fighters and no carriers yet so not much help, but I will be building bigger ships from now on. The games afoot!

Yeah - was caught out by the carrier situation too. Still, I've sent these... Ships in fleet 'Attitude Adjuster' Ship Quantity Sirrius Class Corvette 78 Vega Class Corvette 50 Viper Class Frigate 15 Hawk Class Frigate 10 Total 153 I've ordered a carrier, 1 Thor Class Frigate, 2 Bullet Class Battleships, and then I'll send some small irritants to buzz him. Of course, this could be just what they want...remember that Starshatter was probed. Perhaps we shouldn't send tooo much out of quadrant in case this attack on Perun is a diversion

OK, this is what I know so far:
Himack from --:C:-- launched 1086 ships from Hallow [001:01:3:27], ETA 4 hours.
So, the biggest ship classes he can have are BA1, DE1-2 FR1-FR4, if he doesn't have upgrade codes. I'm guessing he's attacking with fighters and corvettes mostly.

This is my fleet, more to come, but only Bullets, since they are fastest to build and deliver.
Python Class Corvette 6 Venom Class Corvette 3 Sirrius Class Corvette 24 Alpha Class Corvette 18 Vega Class Corvette 23 Crusader Class Corvette 6 Cobra Class Cruiser 1 Adder Class Fighter 94 Viper Class Fighter 83 Bullet Class Fighter 290 Venom Class Fighter 51 Spirit Class Fighter 64 Cobra Class Fighter 2 Shadow Class Fighter 17 Dragon Class Fighter 15 Viper Class Frigate 14 Vampire Class Freighter 2 Total 713
Disruptor Tower 5 Laser Tower 17 Neutron Blaster 5 Pulse Laser Tower 5
Can anyone please describe what they sent, so we can come up with some sane strategy?
Btw, any suggestions about defense strategy?

War update: 1122 alliance ships incoming so far, ETA 7-9 HRS.
I found out something interesting: Himack is MORE than 60% stronger than me (558791 against 340281). I wonder if that penalty they threatened us with applies to creators as well...

Let's wait and see first though.

Defense strategy - in terms of firing orders you need to know what you're up against. If it's mainly fighters, then get your ships that target fighters to fire as soon as possible, but that's obvious stuff really. We'll know more after this battle, whichever way it goes it will be a learning experience, but you should have a slight advantage with those ground based PDs. I think our forces turning up mid-battle may tip it in our favour, they might not expect us to be so organised.

Fleet-probed the berk at Hollow:
Target Coordinates 001:01:3:27 Hallow Defence 1:1:3:27 [001:01:3:17] Ship Quantity Ship Quantity FI.1 - Adder 50 FI.3 - Bullet 250 FI.4 - Venom 50 CO.1 - Python 40 CO.3 - Sirrius 40 CR.1 - Tiger 2 BA.1 - Bullet 2 Total ships in fleet : 434 Total number of ships at target : 434 Ships in orbit : 0 Ships in fleets : 434
I hope that's his cross-ref in the attacking fleet as well. Meaning mostly fighters and corvettes.
