[USS Chimera] SD: 240901.31 Duty Log, MCapt. Anya Xerxes, Flight Ops CO

Start Log

The fighters cleared the launch bays quickly with the Lancerss leading the
charge towards the Romulan Fighters.  From the information flowing through
the datalink Anya could see that this was a new class of Romulan fighter
loaded with heavy weaponry like a heavy disruptor and plasma micro-torpedoes. 
A Heavy Assault Fighter more useful against capital ships than fighters, still a
direct blast from one of them could prove to be dangerous for the Lancers. 


Anya formed a plan of action quickly and transmitted on the unit frequency.
"Ok folks here's the plan Ghost Flight cloak and start tailing that starboard
Warbird but do not engage until ordered.  Sun God keep up the datalink but
avoid combat.  Lancers I want a full missile barrage once we enter effective
range to thin out the opposition we're facing two squadrons of a previously
unseen fighter.  Once that's done break by flights and head to your assigned
combat zones.  Remember your speed and agility is your best weapon in this
fight."


A tone indicated that the Lancers had entered firing range for missile launch
and a counter was displayed indicating a countdown to launch.  The counter
ticked down to zero and 192 Quantum Warhead tipped missiles streaked out
towards the 24 Romulan Heavy Assault Fighters with terrifying speed.  The
Romulan fighters began evasive manoeuvres and managed to shake off a
few of the missiles but they couldn't stop them all.   


The missiles clustered in on the Romulan Heavy Assault Fighters and detonated
spectacularly destroying 17 of the enemy in an instant only leaving 7 damaged
survivors "Break by flights!" Anya called over the comms.  Simultaneously her
flight hammered on the afterburners accelerating the fighters up to close to
light speed.  Suddenly it had gone from a long-range duel to close range dogfight. 
After the initial barrage the Romulans were left disoriented and the Lancers fell upon
them like a pack of wolves upon a flock of sheep carving them up with pulse phasers
and Quantum Gattling Cannons sending out streams of Quantum Tipped Rounds.


Anya rolled her fighter into a corkscrew manoeuvre coming in to unleash a barrage
of her four Gattling Cannons upon the last remaining Romulan Heavy Assault Fighter
shredding it into a burning ball of fire and metal shards.  "Alright Lancers, form up. 
Next target is the big one, the Warbird."
