-Ascendant Justice-

Officer: "Captain, incoming missiles!"

Captain Antilles: "Launch countermeasures, evasive pattern Delta."

Officer: "Aye sir, launching countermeasures."

Helmsman: "Initiating pattern Delta."

The ship fires off a barrage of chaff, and rolls on her long axis in to a "dive" from her previous position. As the ship rolls, her point defense lasers and MK III railguns open fire on the incoming missiles and torpedoes, taking out most. A good number of the others are distracted by the chaff, and miss, while the rest impact, taking out guns and causing several hull breaches. Other ships in the fleet perform other maneuvers, but several ships take heavy damage. A pair of Centurions near the Ascendant Justice begin to erupt flames as they take heavy damage. Groups of escape pods are launched, and are tractored in by nearby ships.

Commodore Kevin: "All ships not escorting the carriers, or recovering fighters, disengage and withdraw."

Several ships, many heavily damaged, warp out, leaving debris clouds where they were. Much of the AIF fighters have been recovered, with most of the remainders being the highly effective P-300s.

-UAC fleet-

The damaged Galactica class carrier takes severe damage to her port outrigger, and the landing tube and launch bays shear off from the main hull. The carrier takes evasive action, and other ships attempt to shield her from fire. Several more capital ships succumb to the withering fire, but the UAC ships fight back ferociously. The Rio Grande, built around the concept of sustained fire, begins maneuvering like a giant fighter, one of her numerous MK I MAC cannons firing every 11 seconds on another target.

The fighters are now trying to reach the UAC fleet's new location, rocketing along at high speed. Several squadrons reroute towards the AIF fleet, and a few P-300s attack a group of Z-40s attacking some hapless UAC bombers, ripping them to shreds with their powerful fire linked laser cannons.
