The year is 2634, and the Terran Confederation is now at war with the Kilrathi. Five years ago first contact with the Empire of Kilrath was established when an exploration ship in the Vega Sector discovered a ship of unknown origin and alien design. When the exploration vessel tried to make contact, the Kilrathi corvette opened fire with all guns, destroying the Terran vessel. Now, five years later, it has finally come to blows. The Terran Confederation has issued a communique to the Empire of Kilrath, delcaring war on the pretense of multiple acts of piracy, unprovocked assault on Terran vessels. The Empire of Kilrath has accepted this declaration and returned the feeling, mobilizing her Kilrathi fleets and ground forces. With the destruction of several out posts and mining colonies in the edges of the Confederacy, the Terrans have also mobilized and are ready for new recruits and pilots.
The TCS Tiger’s Claw has left dry-dock now, the year 2644. Ten long years of warfare have turned Vega Sector into a massive no man’s land. Kilrathi battle groups and fleets patrol their part, sending raiding vessels into the Confederations land, and the Confederates do the same. The TCS Tiger’s Claw is a Bengal class strike carrier, and the crème of the crop for light fleet carriers, carrying a good complement of fighters and bombers, as well as a number of Image Recognition torpedo launchers and anti-matter turret guns for ship to ship warfare. It is deployed, right now, as a single raider in the Andoli Asteroid Belt, just inside the Confederation border. Similarly, the Fralthi Class Cruiser KWS Long Talon is an excellent Kilrathi light cruiser also deployed in the Andoli Asteroid Belt. It also carries a decent complement of fighters, but less than the TCS Tiger’s Claw. Its main armament armament is for ship to ship combat, carrying eight double particle cannon turrets and two dual skipper missile tubes, firing foreward. With both of the warships stationed so close, there is bound to be trouble….but for which ship?
If you are human, you serve aboard the TCS Tiger’s Claw. If you are Kilrathi you serve on the KWS Long Talon

Name: Ralgha Hallas
Race: Kilrathi
Weight: Three hundred pounds
Height: Six feet, one inch.
Rank: Shintahr (Wing Commander) [One per vessel please]
Speciality: Star Fighter Pilot, Dralthi Medium Fighter
The Dralthi medium fighter fly nimbly through the bits of asteroid dust on his patrol route. Ralgha, being one of the two Shintahr on the KWS Long Talon, was given the oppurtunity to choose his patrol route and his accompanying fighters. He had picked his two best pilots, both almost besting him in a fighter-to-fighter engagement. Almost. Ralgha was one of the best pilots in the whole of his battle group, having racked up one hundred Terran fighter kills in his sercie so far. He favored the usual Dralthi medium fighter, as it was decently fast and decently armoured, but it packed a powerful punch with dual laser guns, tachyon cannon, and four missile hard points. He wondered if he was going to make his one hundred and first this night...
