May I have spot?
Alarms were blazing throughout the cruiser as sentients and droids alike were manning their battle stations. "What in blazes is going on what's set of the proximity alarms" asked Commander Parat. "Sir several probes have entered the system we weren't able to identify who they belong to" his first officer stated. "Well then find out and contact the listening post planet side. I want them to check out one of those probes, also send out some fighters for recon I want to know where they launched from" the commander barked. You could see a glint of excitement in his eyes as he knew this was no pirate or smuggler someone was trying to annex his system.
Below on the surface a small detachment of ten men and twenty droids were sent out to find the probe and identify it. Luckily the listening post had managed to not only triangulate the probes position by monitoring its transmissions but they had back tracked the signal to its command ship.
The soldiers were at the probe's landing coordinates in a matter of minutes using an old repulser craft. The commander of the small unit told his men to surround the probe. They managed to take out the probe with a few blaster shots into its sensors and brain. Upon close examination they found imperial markings on the parts and casing. Unfortunately the soldiers hadn't been able to stop the droid before it gave away the position of their small listening station. At the same time two of the Droid tri-fighters ran across the imperial fleet. The fighters tried to make a run for it but one of them was destroyed before it was even able to turn. The other tried flying as close as it could to flagship trying to minimise the incoming fire however it was all in vain as the droid was to inexperienced and crashed but not before transmitting its information about the enemy fleet.
Armed with this new information Parat new his forces were completely outclassed and that it would be time to preform his final task of dying at his at his post doing his duty. He ordered that the outpost relay all information to homeworld and that they should prepare to destroy the base and all recorded information. He then ordered all remaining fighters and bombers deployed and for all ships to form up on him. Lastly he sent out what was to probably be his last message "to all ships in the sector this is Tandum we need immediate assistance from any vessel capable of fighting. All vessels that participate will be greatly rewarded. Lastly to any imperials listening I say this get out of my system before I kick you out". Parat hadn't addressed his own men because he knew that he could count on them to do there duty. Parat got up and slowly moved over to the front of the bridge there he not only looked over the field of battle. But he was also looking across the void staring down his adversary.
Meanwhile on the confederacy's homeworld of Celanon an emergency meeting of the Confederate Senate had been called. Usually it took weeks to organise a regular meeting however this had been put together in just a few minutes. Chairman Sprax Oten and Vice Chairman Vidu Logran to there seats at the large desk at the centre of a semi circle which was lined with representatives some flesh and blood but most were holograms due to the short notice. They were discussing what to do about the recent incursion by imperial forces.
The Chairman managed to steer them in an organised fashion trying to cut out all the arguing, there simply wasn't time for it. They had to be unified if they were stand against there enemies. They were not only discussing what to tell the people but also on how they should fight the war. The was a lot of controversy about what weapons should be brought into service to even the odds as most of the council was afraid of the military might of the Gordian Reach. Luckily they agreed that biological weapons should not be used. However they agreed on the creation of new class of ship that had been rejected due to the cost being to high for peacetime it's name was the Titan Class. Next thing they decided upon was to try and get some more allies on there side. Deciding that they should start by sending ambassadors to the Sith in Esstran, the GRM and the Nightsisters. There relationships with said factions where not particularly good at the moment. In the end they decided to tell the public that as of today they were at war with the Gordian Reach.

The Tandum system located on the edge of CIS space. Considered a backwater planet with no strategic significance. The only thing on the planet was small separatist listening post protected by a small company of 50 men and 150 droids all lightly armed. In low orbit there is only a small fleet with one cruiser, three destroys and a corvette. They had no idea what was to come in the next few hours.
Aboard the flagship Far Star was a young man in his late thirties. Sat in his command chair slumped over looking board. He had been assigned here for two years. In the past he had been a rising star in the navy however now he was a nobody because he had made a lot of enemies in the navy along the way. One of which was an officer who managed to get back at him by getting him resigned to this backwater system. He had no idea how boring this system was. There were no major threats within range such as rebels or restless warlords. On rare occasions they had the odd pirate or smuggler to deal with but usually they were only small time criminals with nothing that could challenge them. As such he disappeared into obscurity never to appear in any glamorous reports again. His name is Terran Parat not that it matters any more.
Down on the ground buried deep into the side of the mountain on Tandum III was a small listening post. They were there to monitor imperial channels for intelligence on military movements and important news. It usually takes them months to decode transmissions and by that time they are too outdated or unimportant to care about. Most of the time they have to guess what the imperials are up to based of activity in the area and where the transmissions are coming from. Unfortunately they hadn't picked up any information about the fleet heading there way I fact there intelligence suggested that the imperial fleets weren't anywhere near there boarders.

I have to say Phoden on those points. I will need to add the B1 battle droids into the list. Also I didn't mean I was replacing transport pilots with humans and also all the tanks I have are droid tanks. What I was meaning is having more human commanders and soldiers in small amounts intermixed so there is added flexibility and thought into attacks. You know so the droids don't just do Russian assaults which is highly ineffective. I wasn't talking about having masses of soldiers more small highly trained units. It will still be overrun the enemy but hopefully without all the losses. Also b2 droids can crouch and curl up for transport also I did say they had upgrades so maybe more flexible joints.

Yeah, we're still open. Although you're sheet needs a little cleaning up, grammar-wise and fix the links a bit, or just make them into images. But otherwise, pretty good faction!And they're close to the Dominion, who'll most likely will be at odds, even at war(which actually could make for a perfect opening post in the IC). Should be good fun! :DEdit: Also, sorry to say the IC will be delayed for a short bit.
Cool yeah like I said work in progress
