![Image](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/524646834405113861/834413278020370472/act2.gif)
Leadership from the Republic, Coalition of Free Planets, and Jedi Order met on Svivren and coordinated a mutual military accord to build a front to rebuke the advancing Wyld Empire.
The Republic's full involvement is to end after the liberation of Vohai, but, the Chancellor has authorized the Republic Navy to create a voluntary Expeditionary Corps entitled "Winged Nexus" to continue serving under Coalition leadership for the remaining duration of the war.
The Jedi Order has made it clear that their members are allowed to volunteer to participate, but will not be required to do so. In addition, Order members will serve as force multipliers, advisors, and allies in the conflict but will remain independent in rank. Jedi will not fall under the command of any Coalition or Republic officer and will be allowed their own discretion to make decisions both in combat and in the ready room.
JEDI Leadership Roles:
Strategic Advisor: Remains on-station aboard flagship vessels to coordinate space and ground forces effectively. Strategic Advisors will pre-plan operations and oversee real-time engagements in order to facilitate effective Jedi participation in coordination with regular troops.
Medical Officer: Will assist and lead in field triage, operating room needs, as well as post-op situations. Medical officers will supply conventional as well as force healing knowledge and techniques while also being available for added support to care-givers, soldiers, and civilians through the conflict.
Mechanical Officer: Designed with Jedi artisans and slicers in mind, there's an abundant need for competent mechanics to keep Coalition & Republic fightercraft in the air, troop transports functional, weapons systems online, as well as shield capacity for capital ships at 100%.
Wing Commander: Will lead Jedi flight wings in coordination with Republic & Coalition fighter groups to maintain air and space superiority over Imperial battle groups. Jedi, and Jedi Wing Commanders, operate under their own discretion but may take Republic or Coalition orders under advisement.
Junior Wing Commander: Operates in a command role while Wing Commanders are away, incapacitated, or unavailable. Defers to Wing Commanders when present.
Field Officer: Will lead Jedi strike teams on surgical operations to critically harm Imperial defensive infrastructure planetside during ground invasions. May assist allied forces in front-line combat. Jedi, and Jedi Wing Field Officers, operate under their own discretion but may take Republic or Coalition orders under advisement.
Junior Field Officer: Operates in a command role while Field Officers are away, incapacitated, or unavailable. Defers to Wing Commanders when present.

Operation Acklay's Pincer
Once the Vohai system has been secured, the Republic 1st fleet will remain in-system to ensure that there is no further attempt by Wyld forces to re-take the planet. The "Winged Nexu" will begin the first phase of the Operation at that point, splitting into 2 Battle Groups with the "Kulthka" remaining over Svivren to assist where needed.
Battle Group Lylek will hit the Empire's eastern flank and take the fight to Wyld commanders Admiral Vehmens and General Truculen there. The spearhead will be Ryloth as the first target.
Battle Group Reek will hit the Empire's Western flank, using the victory at Vohai for momentum. They will be facing off against Wyld commanders Admiral Kerudelys and General Inestima. Their beachhead will be Alzoc III.
After finding ground on both fronts, the two battle groups will squeeze Imperial forces between them, flanking on both sides to meet over Drexel.
Battle of Vohai 418.16
At 15:30 the Republic 1st Fleet along with both battle groups dropped out of hyperspace to engage the Wyld fleet in full assault. During this time, the JEDI strike team moved to the surface to secure a landing zone for ground assault.
In orbit, all five corvettes and both Nebulon frigates moved into a picket formation to screen enemy fighter and bomber runs, the Kulthka taking up position in the rear to focus its primary turbolaser batteries at the enemy formation.
The Wyld forces consisted of an orbital defense station, one battleship, one dreadnaught, and three corvettes. They fielded 10 wings of bombers, 8 wings of interceptors, and 8 wings of heavy fighters.
In the battle two corvettes, the Elation and Randun Skrett from battle groups Lylek and Reek respectively, were separated from the main picket line. The Imperial battleship Dark Summit maneuvered between them and the rest of the allied fleet, blocking support while Wyld bomber runs compromised their hull integrity. The Elation suffered a direct hit to their hyperdrive, initiating a cascade effect that caused immediate detonation in the ship's internal hull. All hands on board were lost in the explosion. The Randun Skrett was disabled from ion bombs and, its systems failing, ordered the ship scuttled. In all, 86 of its crew were killed in action, the rest getting to escape pods as the ship self destructed.
All three Wyld corvettes were destroyed in the action that took place while the Battleship and dreadnaught completed a jump to hyperspace after the defensive space station was disabled.
The JEDI strike force took control of the surface and secured the Governor and the system was successfully reclaimed for the Republic.
Battle of Ryloth 418.23
At 17:45, Battle Group Lylek fell out of hyperspace in position to engage the Wyld forces. Meanwhile, the Jedi team broke off to descend to the provided coordinates to meet up with resistance cells planetside.
The "Hawkeye" as the flagship, accompanied with the two CVX-70 corvettes "Sapphire" and "Axium" were covered by a thick fighter screen. The bomber wings behind the corvette line, ready for an opening to begin bombing runs.
The coalition battlegroup was up against the modest defense fleet over Ryloth. Two Dreadnaughts and several wings of starfighters.
Having learned from the Second Battle of Vohai, Lylek's corvette line stuck close together. The fighters screens engaged one another, both vying for control to keep the other off of their respective bomber wings. The "Sapphire" and "Axium" directed power to their thrusters and moved ahead of the "Hawkeye," using their point defense cannons to ensure Wyld bomber wings were staved off as the "Hawkeye" moved along the broadside of one Dreadnught, using its frame to block the arcs of fire of the second.
The exchange disabled one Wyld Dreadnaught while both the "Sapphire" and "Axium" sustained mild damage. The "Hawkeye's" starboard shield array failed and the starboard turbolaser batteries were disabled by enemy fire. However, this maneuver opened up the Wyld's flank for Republic bombing runs.
Seeing the tide shift, the unharmed Deadnaught diverted its own power to its forward shields and its thrusters. An abrupt increase of speed took the "Sapphire" off guard and the Deadnaught rammed the CVX-70, causing decompression on the back end of the ship and disabling their hyperdrive. Shortly after, the Dreadnaught made its own jump to lightspeed. The remaining Dreadnaught self-destructed shortly after, with remaining Wyld fighters falling back into hyperspace as well.
JEDI leadership eliminated "Lord Ryloth" but Wyld fighting cells remain on the planet and ongoing fighting continues for many months after to maintain control of the planet.
Battle for Skynara 420.13
Battle Group Lylek has received intel that resistance groups on Skynara have been successfully armed and ready to overthrow the imperial government of the Wyld. Several partisan, freedom fighters and paramilitary forces have come together to begin an assault on multiple fronts on Skynara.
A JEDI Infiltration-Team has been sent planetside to lead two platoons of mediocre-skilled soldiers into battle, but were suddenly ambushed by one of those which seemed to be bribed soldiers and mercenaries financed by the Wyld Empire. After a brief skirmish, the JEDI team managed to wipe out the platoon near a ruined building several miles away from a military convoy, which has been set as a primary target for this mission.
The main objective was to halt and destroy the armed convoy that was struggling it's way through the canyon. The resistance of the Imperial forces was higher than expected, leaving the rebels with too many casualties to continue to fight, which was a breaking point in the battle.
The team of JEDI decided to face the convoy alone and head-on, placing detonators at the structure of a natural bridge going through a passage in the canyon. The JEDI team managed to block the canyon with a huge detonation of the bridge, crippling the maneuverability of said convoy that has been destroyed after a Squadron of Y-Wings have initiated a bombardment of said location.
By taking out the convoy, military resistance soon yielded to the rebels and Skynara was officially liberated from the grasp of the Wyld forces.
As the JEDI strike force engaged in ground operations, the fleet battle group moved into position in orbit. The Skynara defense fleet was headed by a Wyld capital ship, "Razor's Edge" with several fighter wings in support as well as a CQ defense station in orbit.
Coalition Dreadnaught "Brilliant Flame" took the lead with the "Hawkeye" on its wing, running jamming on missile salvos from the "Razor's Edge". Meanwhile, the "Axium", "Emerald Star", and "Sapphire" moved with interceptor squadrons to engage with the "Razor's Edge" fighter support.
The "Razor's Edge" turned its main batteries on the "Brilliant Flame" and quickly started depleting the Dreadnaught's shields to critical levels, all hands bracing for hull breach which occurred at 22:00 with decks 7-9 losing pressure. In all, 86 hands were lost onboard and the "Brilliant Flame" was crippled, needing major repairs after the battle was completed.
However, with its fighter support otherwise engaged, the "Hawkeye" took over the spearhead of the attack while Coalition bomber squadrons, escorted by heavy X-series fighter/bombers, made several successful strafing runs, disabling the capital ship's shields and primary weapon batteries.
The "Razor's Edge" made an emergency jump to lightspeed and the space battle found a victory with only the loss of the "Sapphire" which found itself the victim of several Wyld fighters bombing themselves into its hull.
2nd Battle of Alzoc III | 422.15
Alzoc III was well defended with 1 Golan platform, 3 QX defense stations, as well as a substantial Wyld Fleet that was flagged by the commandeered Republic Star Destroyer "Illuminant Star". Along with the flagship the Wyld fleet had two battle groups of its own. The 'Winged Nexu' fleet engaged in full, both Battle Group Lylek and Reek present, for this massive push to break the spine of the Wyld Front.
On the surface, a JEDI strike team secured the capital city as a staging ground before moving on to assault their former home, the Jedi Praxium, where the Wyld General Inestima had set up his primary forward headquarters of the entire Western Front.
As the Coalition army engaged in the sweeping, snowy, hills of the ice-planet, the JEDI strike team infiltrated the old Praxium to capture General Inestima alive to put an end to the battle then and there.
Act 1: Wyld Battle Group Fervor -vs- Winged Nexu Battle Group Lylek
Fervor was led by the Vengence-Class Frigate "Crimson Claw" and a support fleet of 2 Corona-class Frigates, and 4 Pelta class corvettes along with a full fighter complement.
Lylek's "Brilliant Flame" and "Hawkeye" charged down the middle, coordinating their fire to bring down the "Crimson Claw" and knock it, and its mass driver cannons, out of the fight. Meanwhile, the "Axium", "Emerald Star" and, "Perseverance" set up a point-defense screen to intercept enemy squadrons that were moving to cut off Lylek's Heavy bombers who were targeting the Corona Frigates.
In the engagement, the three CVX-70's were successful in stalling the Wyld interceptors from hitting Lylek's bombers, but, the "Emerald Star" found itself the focus of fire from both of the Corona frigates forward batteries and its munitions cash was hit, incinerating the corvette while losing all hands on board. The bombing run was successful, however, as after the loss of the "Emerald Star" the bombers hit their targets, causing explosive decompression of one Corona frigate while crippling the other, taking it out of the fight.
Meanwhile, the "Crimson Claw" was worn down by the frigate line of Battle Group Lylek but not before sending a mass driver round through the bridge of the "Brilliant Flame" and the engine decks of the "Hawkeye." Taking the flag, the "Hawkeye" coordinated a flanking maneuver with the "Axium" and "Perseverance", diverting power to thrusters to arc around the back of the "Crimson Claw" while its shields were 100% diverted to the forward arrays. "Crimson Claw's" batteries were still able to fire locally, and so the drifting ship managed to keep pressure on the Vengence-class along with the "Hawkeye" until the CVX-70's got into position, opening fire with their batteries to hit along the thruster array, igniting the fuel reserves which caused a cascade of internal explosions that dismantled the ship.
Act 2: Wyld Battle Group Tenacity -vs- Winged Nexu Battle Group Reek
This half of the engagement was the show-stopper. 'Winged Nexu's' flagship, the MC-180 "Kulthka," faced down versus a former Republic Ship-of-the-Line "Illuminant Star" along with the rest of the respective fleets.
Battle Group Reek's "Trapper" and "Stalwart" broke off from the "Kulthka" along with a small section of bombers to engage with the line of QX stations that were peppering Nexu's fighter squadrons while the "Ter'ak" and "Ambition" set up a point-defense screen to fend off Wyld bombing runs from the capital ship. Meanwhile, daring bomber pilots who were escorted by two gunship escorts, moved to engage the "Illuminant Star's" support battle group Tenacity, consisting of the "Crimson Claw's" sister ship, the Vengence-Class "Crimson Talon" along with 3 retrofitted CR-145 corvettes. The Y-series bombers made two passes, one over the CR-145's to drop a sheet of ion torpedoes to disable their systems temporarily. On that run, 30% of the bombers were shot down by the corvette's point-defense cannons before they were rendered offline. After, the bombers came around for another pass, firing high-yield proton torpedoes to destroy the "Crimson Talon's" mass driver cannons that were firing into the hull of the "Kulthka." All the while, the gunship escorts kept the Wyld interceptor squadrons engaged.
Trading blow for blow, the "Kulthka" and "Illuminant Star" were the centerpiece of the fight. Both ships diverting shields full to front meant that whichever fleet could break through the flank would take the battle. The Wyld believed that the QX line would protect their 'north' flank and so they had no ships there, all of their support craft were engaged with Battle Group Reek's fighter screen. Unfortunately for Admiral Kerudelys, he underestimated the firepower of Battle Group Reek's "Trapper" and "Stalwart" as they engaged the primarily anti-fighter stations. the QX line pummeled the shields of the Nebulon and Dreadnaught, but, though both found their shields decimated by the engagement, surgical strikes by talented bomber pilots disabled the shields on the platforms, allowing the heavy canons of both frigates to shred the stations to ribbons.
With Reek's frigates quickly maneuvering into position, the "Illuminant Star" focused all of their firepower onto the SFS T-Series Corvettes to try and open a window for its own bombers to make a run to cripple the forward shield arrays on the "Kulthka". Both "Ter'ak" and "Ambition" found their shields overwhelmed by the superior firepower of a focused Republic-class Star Destroyer. "Ter'ak" was the first to break down the middle, its central hull caving under the firepower. "Ambition" diverted all of its power to engines to try and break off, but, a score along the primary static discharge vane meant that the action overloaded the ship's power systems and caused the entire engine compartment to rupture, causing the ship to suffer a catastrophic failure and explode.
A furious bombing run followed from Wyld bombers, succeeding in destroying the "Kulthka's" forward shield array and the "Illuminant Star" bombarded the hull with everything they had. The central fin sustained heavy damage, but did its job in protecting the major systems of the ship's hull from the heavy turbolaser canon fire long enough for the Dreadnaught and Nebulon frigates to get behind the "Illuminant Star's" forward shield projectors. Melted sheets of metal filled the space around the Republic-Class Star Destroyer as the flanking maneuver lit up their starboard side and with that, Admiral Kerudelys knew the battle had been lost. He ordered the "Illuminant Star" make an emergency jump to hyperspace, saving the Admiral's flagship to fight another day.
Finale: The Battle Ends
The fleet regrouped to engage the Golan platform. A massive wall of steel, shield arrays, and heavy turbolaser batteries. Every ship having sustained major damage, the outlook of securing orbit was dire until a transmission came from the surface, a video feed that the "Kulthka" rebroadcast on unencrypted channels for all to see: General Inestima had been captured by the JEDI strike team. He was in cuffs, brilliantly coloured lightsabers surrounded him, and the shame of his capture was evident even behind his mask fixtures.
With that broadcast, the Golan platform shut down its main reactor and surrendered, allowing boarding parties to come aboard and take prisoners for the first time en masse for the whole war. With that, the Battle of Alzoc III was concluded with a Coalition victory.
