A vast array of satellites, fruit of the Hades program, sits in the depths of Esomerian space, surrounding a small star system and a vast asteroid field. Inside the station commanding these artificial constructions sits an officer, listening quietly to a broadcast speech, coming from the Imperial palace itself:
"... The perpetrators of this vile attack," goes the speech," perhaps the most disastrous in our long history, will not go unpunished. The corrupt Federal Council will be opposed by the might of the Union, be it in the vastness of space, be it in the fields of politics..."
The speech continues before it is obscured by another transmission reaching the station.The officer then turns to a small intercom microphone that sits at his desk, and barks a few orders: "Fire Control, this is Command, we have received strike authorisation, coordinates are being transmitted. Over"
"Roger, command," replies Fire Control, "Rotating satellites two through four."
The advanced computers located on the artificial satellites begin complex calculations, and orientate themselves. They pull meteoroids into their mass accelerator cannons, and wormholes are ripped into the fabric of space in front of their bores. The simple electric generators power up the coils, and fling them into the wormholes. In the atmosphere of Kurill Prime, a portal opens. Then, the meteors pierce the sky, burning white hot, and crash into the planet, creating a massive explosion, wiping out large swathes of land, and projecting tonnes of dust into the air, literally blotting out light from parts of the sky.
OOC: Epic miss! The Federation Counsel is not on that planet.
*A transmission is sent to the Esomerians by President Tuvok* "I do not condone the actions of the counsel, I vetoed their orders and yet they overrule me, but you have needlesly attacked a civilian target causing millions of civilian deaths, perhaps the counsel was right in ordering the attack. I am issuing an ultimatum, if you do not apologize for the attack and try those resposible, remember, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction." *IPBM's are readied to be launched*
