Yiski:
--Crown Peak--

*Yiski noticed the three ships were within 2-3 kilometers and preparing to fire.*

"Start loading me up double time."

*Yiski lined up his shots again and started firing in quick sessions. Within thirty seconds, Yiski managed to fire off twenty rounds, only a handful missing their marks. Along with the other defensive fire, two of the three ships went down. The third ship, a pyramidion started laying down mercury fire in order to knock out any of the entrenched guns. Another few volleys from Yiski and others ended it quickly, but the pyramidion managed to take out two of the hundreds of batteries.*

*With the downing of the three vanguard, the rest of the fleet decided to move in.*

"Now the fun starts."

--Saloon--

*Roland to Ny-Lee*

"It is like Lu Tower, but this time we are on the giving end. That and a difference of a few hundred batteries in our favor."

RearAdmiralZill:
-Then It Was Fixed Again-

Zill get's BdrLine's frequency and looks over with his spyglass to the rear Wall. Sure enough, troop transports with escorts were beginning to blow through the mines. The batteries were picking off some boats but not enough.
"Bdr, change of plan, get back there and support the coming wave of defense. By the time you get back there, you'll see what I mean."

Zill radios Matty.
"Matty, you're clear to engage the enemy. Stay fast."

"Aye Admiral. They won't know what hit them."

"Rear Wall, come in."

"Admiral, we're getting hit hard."

"I can see. Get your ground forces behind the gate and have the Galleon begin its rounds. All batteries are to fire, and you have reinforcements inbound. Keep me updated."

"Yes sir."

Zill turned back to the main event. He saw three Galleons lined up on the Wall.
"So it begins."

They opened fire, smacking the Wall directly. It held, and the Anvalan Galleons opened fire on them along with renewed battery suppression. They lifted up but to only delay the inevitable. They continued to pound the Wall with little effect. Their movements made their shots inaccurate. Zill then looked past them to more troop transports. One had fallen and was being evacuated. Another four were still there, supported by more smaller Fleet vessels. They began to approach, and Zill gave a call.
"To all Goldfish, lift out and engage troop transports. I don't want any Republic dogs in here today."

On que, fifteen goldfish rose from behind the Wall, and proceeded to approach the coming wave.

Captain Lockheart:
*radios in*

"nice shooting!, shall i move in?"

*looks at the convoy*

"i mean, like i say this is a HEAVILY modified Galleon. I have 5 heavy guns.... 2 typhons on each side  on the bottom deck, one Yeshan hwacha that can rotate 360 degrees on the top deck, and more light guns, crew and engines. its not pretty to look at but it kicks the hell outta any ship... also i have my secret weapon..."

*Chuckles*

BdrLineAzn:
--Starlight--

*BdrLine Off the radio with Zill*
"Roger that"

*He turns to the others*
"Well tally ho, we are about to go in"

*Looking at the mass of ships coming from the east, John gulbs*
"You mean us and your goldfish against that?"

*As BdrLine starts his engines again and turns the bow towards the formation in the east he calls down*
"Hey even though I'm crazy, I'm not that crazy. We are going into that hell of a mess is that Zill has somethig up his sleeve. Allen get on the hawacha and start loading the heavy rounds we need to quickly knock them out. Tommy and John brace yourselves*

*Allen hurries to the front gun and starts the loading process while the other two goes around making final checks around the ship*

*BdrLine then puts the ship into full throttle as he races to meet the coming transpor*
*Halfway there, he sees that the enemy are not slowing down from the groud batteries*
Flak we may not make it. ...The Hell? ...Damn them came out of nowhere

*As the situation looks grim and the eastern wall about to be overrun, a group of squids come out of the clouds hitting the transports from the rear*
*BdrLine calls down*

"Here's our help guys. Allen start shooting once we are in range"

"Oh Roger that"

*As the squids are harrassing the enemy formation, BdrLine and his goldfish arrives in the thick of it and starts firing in at the closest transport from the wall*
*BdrLine goes over and changes the frequency to try and talk to the officer in charge*
"Looks like you guys gave them a scare. This is the Goldfish Starlight we are here ready to assist. Right now I going for the closest ships near the wall, radio me if you ned some backup"
"

Captain Lockheart:
*sees the squids that are in to attack*

"Oh, i see how it is, you dont trust old locky..."

"TURN THE POWER ON!"

*The cloud the "yeshan dragon" was hiding in... lights up*

*Draws his sword and stands at the front of the ship as it turns to bring its front on the fleet*

"FIRE!!!!"

* a Dragon figurehead shoddily roped to the front of the galleon fired flames out of its head and unleashed hell on the galleons infront of it*

" BRING THE HWACHA ROUND"

*the hwacha on the top deck slowly turned towards the front and fired at a galleon further back*

"Excellent work men, lets give them hell!!"

*points sword forward*
