What happen to the WoB alla Wolverines
« on: 06 February 2012, 21:02:55 »
i put this on the fan fic section and noone said any thing.

so it's 3079, Terra has been invaded. the WoB is on the ropes in the IS so what do you do.  you meet at one of the 3 other lost worlds.  in jihad: final rechoning. you have to chose from the fallowing class of warships that listed as missing Sovetski Soyuz (2750), Vincent Mk39, Agamemnon, thera, and zechetinu II.  what goes with you into the unknown?

Now do you take one of the Shadow Div 6 are MIA,
or do you take one WoB Militia Div you have 4 MIA

What dropships would you take and why

what jumpships would you take how many and why?

have fun posting

here is my take

Okay now this is going to be made on a few assumptions. One is that the Explore Corps found a habitual system that will take a normal jumpship one year to reach it. This system location would have been removed from the database. It would also not be near the clan front, and have had a limited system survey so the colony would know what they needed to bring.
This system would have been kept by the WoB as their back up plan named operation Rabbit Hole. The four warships have not been seen since 3079 where did they go, it would seem that they had plans for places to hide and the final 3 would seem likely. I have chosen one of them as the start point. I don’t think the Shadow Division would want to hide, they would wont to stay and defend one of the Masters Jewels. Would some of the MD go yes, would some of the WoB other troops want to say and defend this important world yes.
After getting over the shock would take some time so I say on 1 Jan 3080 (1 day) the go order is given for operation Rabbit. At 90 days the first force leaves, it would be made up of I say the 3rd Militia division that made it planet side with 4 under strength level IVs. The Scout/Securing Forces would be made of Vincent MK39 fitted with Lithium-Fusion (LF), 5 Tramps jumpships (LF fitted) from the support fleet of the navy ships and Division supply fleet, and 1 Magellan as scout and HPG (I don’t think scout or merchant jumpships would in system only larger ones to help keep the location secret.). I think they will super jump to the location of the Rabbit system.
This fleet has 16 drops carry capability. I think that one of the Level IV’s would be in the lead. They will take 1 Colossus, 1 Assault Triumph, 2 Overlords, and a Union for the Union PWS, this leaves 10 dropships for moving families and supplies. This will need unit will be on their own for 1 year, one Mule tanker, at least one Mammoth, and 8 other dropships (most likely Mules)that can are in system. This fleet will have all the scouts, surveyors, food, parts, some contrition equipment that the Battle Armor, Mechs will supplement, families, prefab buildings, and construction crews.
The Second fleet will leave 6 months later say day270 or so. This would give them time to dismantle 2 Mech production lines, 1 Battle armor line, maybe a aerospace fighter line, and a large vehicle production line(support construction). They will also carry 1 Level VI in there combat drops ships, they will need 1 Monolith, 4 Star Lords, 2 Invaders and another Magellan scout. To escort this fleet will cause problems with the local Warlords. The governor of the colony should ask for the Thera as the escort, but settle for the Zechetinu II, 1 Mule Q, 2 Interdictor, and a crewed Tiamat. The Civilian dropships will be cargo carries, Mammoths, a Behemoths , with a Mule tanker for each jumpship plus one Dove Medical ship to be the base of the colonies hospital. This convoy will have families of colony as well as the rest of the families for both Level IV, and government set ups.
The Third Fleet and last will be leaving 6 months after the second fleet say day 60 of 3081. This fleet would need the dropship capability to transport enough to bring the colony population to 250,000 for a good gene pool. They will also be carrying 5 small factory space station, 1 large factory space station, 1 small habitat station along with the 3rd Level IV, the 4th Level IV will be disbanded to fill the other 3 Level IV and fill slot of those how do not want to leave for the new planet. As an escort it will take the Agamemnon class warship at least. This will leave two very large flagships back to attack or defend anyone in the IS.

While the Fleets are loading and moving to the Rabbit system. The Scout force will set up a capital, and each large dropship will set up where smaller cities sites. The Magellan will scout and detail survey the star closest to the Rabbit system taking over a month at each system. A space port will be set up and all the prefab building will be set up and maybe even the first small farms. The land will have been cleared using mainly the Mechs and battle Armor to do the heavy moving, to include the staring the roads to connect mine sites, cleared factory sites and the secondary cities

I'm not sure they would abandon the hidden worlds. They are too hard to find for them to be threatened easily.

I'm not sure the MD had any families, tje militia divisions may not have been able to retreive theirs.

You may be assuming the missing divisions are larger than they are. Some may have been remnants only.

i was thinking that they would be adding a new world as a bolt hole to hide leaving the SD units in the IS to defend/ attack (tricentennial attacks) from one of the final five worlds. it's hard to know whow big the units are but you have 10 Div not counting what would have been used by the locals... maybe take two level 4 instead of 3.  does that work better?
