“The Fall of Giants”

[zeruosi]

Hello everyone, I will be moving some excellent fan fiction works from China in this post. I have obtained authorization from the original author and will be moving them. Of course, as English is not my native language, there may be extremely serious grammar errors and a large number of memes that cannot be translated. Please forgive me.Without further ado, let's start straight away.

The Renegade-1
"Your existence is a threat to the entire galaxy, and you must be dealt with. "- Kudatag, Gufu Arbitrator Empire, Observer
Serami Starry-era April 16724, Earth United Nations July 2413 AD​

The Athera system has no planets, only two asteroid belts scattered around an M-type red dwarf star. The gravel belt in the inner ring is in a semi molten state due to its proximity to the star, while the outer ring is mainly composed of semi transparent water ice minerals, shining with a color between blue and purple under the dark red light of Athera's star, like a string of water crystal necklaces accidentally thrown out by a noblewoman.
The light gradually dimmed, and a huge shadow enveloped the ice mineral belt, restoring its originally dull deep blue color. This is naturally some kind of colossal object passing above it - a cross shaped fleet of warships and escort formations slowly passing through the asteroid belt, gradually moving away from the gravitational range of the system Athera.
In a more distant horizon, one can catch a glimpse of orange nebula dust and endless stars. Among them, at the flagship's right ascension of about 30 degrees, a slightly golden star can be seen with a slight lift, which is particularly bright. That nova belongs to the Radiant system, and for observers of the Athera system, it did not exist a month ago. The Radiant system is adjacent to the Athera system, and the Radiant A star in the binary system is less than a light year away from Athera Star. A major event has occurred in that system and that is precisely why this fleet came to this star system.
“Kudatag, what are you looking at? "A familiar voice came from the side.
My thoughts were also pulled back from the empty starry sky, back to the wide bridge and huge portholes.
Star, "I replied casually," you know, that one probably won't exist in half a month.”
As my attention was drawn back, the scenery in the virtual porthole quickly lost focus and was replaced by a darker and more desolate real starry sky - the unmanned deep space. I noticed my reflection in the porthole and felt a little tired.
Kudatag is my name, I am an observer of the Gufu Pioneer Empire. In the past few thousand years, all foreign affairs in the empire have been directly managed by the emperor himself. However, since the current emperor Kutad reorganized the government and began actively intervening in the outside world, and changed the suffix of the country's name to the arbitration empire, observers who theoretically belong to scientific research positions have also taken on most of the diplomatic tasks.
“Are observers all so sentimental? That star can be seen again on our home planet seventy years later from now, and if you're willing to travel across the galaxy, you can see it anytime. "As expected, Commander Douglas, the commander-in-chief of the Gufu Third Fleet, laugh at my feelings out of court.
I could only smile bitterly and shrugged my two pairs of limbs.
Douglas was the overall commander of the military forces in this operation and one of my few friends on this warship. He has amazing insight in military operations, but always holds a provocative indifference towards life, the universe, and many other important things. This personality is rare among the Gufu people, as a pro foreigner nation known as the "observer" by other races for centuries, a gentle mentality has long been imprinted in the genes of most Gufu people. Even the other two commanders of the First Fleet and the Second Fleet actively promoted peace in the galaxy politically.
Our mission on this trip is to mediate the deadly military conflict between the Tyrannis Guardian Empire and the Newcastle Economic Union. Since the magnificent fleet of the Gufu people reactivated in the Milky Way Galaxy, we have prevented countless meaningless frictions between young races and eliminated the possibility of threatening peace in the galaxy from the bud. However, this time the situation is completely different, as evidenced by the deployment of the entire Third Fleet can tell.
The Tyrannis Empire is a civilization as ancient as the Gufu Empire, and the Newcastle Economic Union is our ally, but the most troublesome thing is far from that.
Attention: The hyperspace engine is ready and will soon enter superluminal navigation mode. Please prepare personnel from all units, "the command link reported. I quickly found my safety seat and sat down. Indeed, without realizing it, the fleet had completely departed from the gravitational range of the star, shifting from its original curved orbit to a straight line of navigation.
The countdown to the start of the hyperspace engine is five, four, three, two, one...
xiu————
I shook my head vigorously, refocusing my attention from the haze. In the state of hyperspace navigation, organisms cannot maintain their consciousness, and only machines navigate according to preset programs. It was as if I had experienced a dream of indescribable duration, with my vision gradually becoming clearer and the buzzing sound of acceleration still echoing in my mind.
Douglas's physical fitness is obviously much better than mine. He is now standing by the porthole, looking ahead.
Look, it's right there, "he said with his back to me.
I walked up and looked in the direction of his fingers. On the third orbit of the Radiant binary star system, there floats a dim crimson color, with several huge molten fragments barely outlining a spherical shape. A shattered piece of dust is thrown out, like blood stains beside a lifeless giant beast.
”Sin... "I sighed inwardly. That's the new star we saw before. Some unprecedented energy completely tore apart this planet, and the uncooled lava was its last remaining warmth, while the Athera system still echoed with its dying cries.
Once - when it was still alive - it was one of the most beautiful planets in the entire Galaxy, with a pale green surface nurturing a heavenly ecosystem. It is a special planet classified as Gaia type, whose ecological environment is so rich and diverse that any known advanced life can find its own suitable at a certain latitude
Suitable environment. The Tyrannis Guardian Empire sees it as a witness of the Holy Spirit walking on earth, and its name is as beautiful as its appearance.
Garden within the wall.
I closed my eyes and couldn't help but think of history from thousands of years ago. That is an image that every Gufu person must remember in their hearts - on the orbit of the great Heavenly Father Planet , warships shining with deep red light flooded in like a tide, and an unprecedentedly huge super warship slowly entered the synchronous orbit of the Sister Planet under the escort fleet. Its hull bloomed like petals, revealing an explosive energy inside that was even more terrifying than the abyss of hell.
The orbital fortress was destroyed. The land-based defense weapon fired, but it was as powerless as rainwater falling into a volcano. The main fleet was delayed in the distance, while the emergency reinforcements all fell near the stargate. The temporary formation of aerial assault aircraft was mobilized, and they rushed towards the devil's flower like firefighting flying insects. The pilots in the cabin gritted their teeth, tears of blood burning on their cheeks...
But everything is already irreparable. A blazing beam of light gushed out from the muzzle of the Colossus class battleship, melting the city of the Gufu people and shattering the crust of the Sister Planet. Then, everything came to an end - when that golden red flash erupted from the deepest part of the planet, the void echoed only with the terrible news known as the Apocalypse.
Giant vicious Weapon, Planet Destroyer, this is synonymous with sin, and the race that manufactures such weapons is inevitably a threat to the entire galaxy!

Welcome to the AARland part of the Forum, @zeruosi .

This is an interesting start to an AAR. So many questions though after that first installment. Is the Planet Destroyer used by some rogue element of one of the civilizations? Or is it deployed by the Tyrannis Guardian Empire? Will the United Nations of Earth be responding to this incident? How?

Also, a few items you might want to know regarding the AAR parts of the Forum:

You may wish to advertise your AAR in the Inkwell.

If you'd like to research writing topics there's the SolAARium and the fAARq, which are excellent resources.

Also, feel free to interact with other writers in the main part of the AARland forum.

That's probably more than enough suggestions for now.

Are you co-writing this or only translating? Always interesting to hear about the process of creation for some of us.

If you have questions, please feel free to ask. The Stellaris sub-forum is very friendly as is the rest of AARland. Welcome!

Thank you for reading. The Earth United Nations does not dominate this story, in fact, it is closer to a backdrop.
The appearance of the Planet Destroyer is also very rare, in fact, it is only mentioned at the beginning of the story, apart from appearing at the end. This story is from around 2018, so the setting is different from the stellaris.

Are you co-writing this or only translating? Always interesting to hear about the process of creation for some of us.

I only translated it, not collaborated on it, even though I myself have been writing fan works. But I couldn't hold on

Once again, thank you very much for sharing. I will make good use of it. (Although I may not understand it very well )

The Renegade-2​

"I always wonder if it was the right decision for us to launch this war. Looking at this and considering our own history, it seems that every full-scale war at the galaxy level will not have a good outcome..."
"Don't be so weak, Kudatag, "interrupted Douglas." You know, the culprit of this war is not us, but the Dundacan Empire. Can we let those chauvinists achieve their national ambitions? If we continue to passively avoid the world, we fear that the planet that will ultimately be destroyed will not only be a Garden within the wall, but also the Cradle Planet!"
"But look at the current situation - our war with Dundacan is raging, and Newcastle has no awareness of being a Allied country. They actually used the Colossus to blow up the Holy Land of Tyrannis! I have said before that the Hyumans, this race, cannot be trusted. They are too much like the Dundacan people, and even have greed that the Dundacan people cannot match. If it weren't for their own hostility towards Dundacan, they would have almost 100% sold their weapons to both sides of the war. We should have sanctioned them as early as when they started the Giant Divine Weapon plan."
"You should know that Newcastle is the strongest among all the Allied powers. Although I am reluctant to admit it, the heavily armed Dundacan Empire does have a larger navy than us. Without the assistance of the Hyumans, it would have been difficult for us to win this war. I think the reason why the Emperor decided to mediate this conflict is also due to this consideration - we cannot lose a powerful ally, nor can we have an evenly matched opponent, and we cannot afford the risk of fighting on two fronts."
What he said makes sense. If we traditionally consider the location of the Great Scar system as the north of the Milky Way, the Dundacan Empire would be in our south, while the Tyrannis Empire would be in our northwest. It would be too dangerous to go to war in both directions at the same time. But I always feel that our current strategy is too one-sided.
I questioned, "Do you really think the fanatical Tyrannis Empire will tolerate the shame of the destruction of the Holy Land just because of our intervention? And Newcastle, if they still respect our guidance, they won't unilaterally provoke Tyrannis. I have been an observer for more than thirty years, and I can see that the Hyumans people will eventually become a threat to the galaxy, and we are even providing technical support for them. cherish a snake in one's bosom.
"Have some confidence in our empire, my friend, "said Douglas, showing a rare expression of unwavering determination, which belonged to the great people of Gufu who had existed for countless centuries,"I also want to tell you that I have been commanding the fleet for over forty years. What I know is that the Tyrannis will consider our attitude, because we have a civilization as long as theirs, and because we have a revival plan ten years ahead of them. The sanctions against the Hyumans will be implemented sooner or later, and they will obey our deployment. The fleet we are in is the most solid guarantee. Believe it, we will revive, and we will restore the glory of the First Alliance."
"Sir!"
Before we could continue our discussion on this topic, the flagship monitor walked onto the bridge, apparently with some important intelligence. Douglas gestured for him to continue speaking.
"The Newcastle Economic Union has just released a broadcast for the entire galaxy."
Douglas and I coincidentally exchanged a glance. Since the Tyrannis Empire unilaterally declared war on the Newcastle Economic Union, Newcastle has not made an official response. Now, it's finally time.
“All think tank personnel above Alpha level in the Third Fleet should go online immediately. Prepare the communication channel with Cradle Planet's tachyon, "ordered Douglas.
Not long after, the projections of the main members of the fleet command appeared on the bridge, and Douglas instructed the listeners to play the news of the Newcastle Economic Union.
This is a holographic image.
The image begins with a dotted starry sky in the darkness, unknown to which system. Soon, a small boat entered the edge of the scene, followed by another one, another one. Obviously, they are the vanguard of a military fleet, and the orange red lights add a touch of color to the monotonous background. These ships are all in the style of Newcastle ships, with square and metallic armor plates, turrets, and external instruments that are not concealed, looking like a rough combination of pioneering mining factories and exploration stations. I don't like this style of ships, they display completely naked primitive violence.
Soon, background music started playing. This seems to be a carefully edited promotional video. At first, the music was weak, but then it became loud and powerful, with a large number of orchestral instruments and electronic bass beloved by the Hyuman peoples added to it. Immediately afterwards, a narrator began to speak.
"For many years, various countries in the Milky Way have been trying their best to survive; for many years, we have faced many powerful obstacles lurking in secret. Some forces hold advanced technology but do not use it to promote progress throughout the galaxy, while others possess abundant resources but neither develop nor allow other countries to develop."
Is this implying an ancient empire? Do they know that such a statement would include our Gufu Empire as well?
The image is still ongoing.
"The times have changed! Our allies are spread throughout the galaxy, and our military power is deployed to every corner. The prosperity of commerce and the progress of technology support each other like a double helix of genes, spiraling upwards. The countries of the Newcastle Economic Union, the members of the Pan Galactic Free Trade Organization, and all supporters of technology and prosperity, shocking news has arrived! Our products have once again achieved a technological revolution, which will rewrite the military landscape of the entire galaxy."
The fleet of Newcastle has already entered the image, and I can see their iconic carrier battle group, whose ships have caused significant damage to Dundacan. And further back, the design of the large battleships, which were clearly of the battleship class, was somewhat unique - there were few turrets and no hangars, and the bow had a huge groove shaped opening with rails divided into two sides, reminiscent of the design of Titan class battleships. These warships are clearly one of the highlights of this video, and the camera's perspective is quickly drawn to the vicinity of one of them.
"The Renegade class battleship, our latest fourth generation battleship design, is low-cost but equipped with conventional weapons with strategic weapon power, an unprecedented axle based kinetic energy cannon, which we call the Gigantic Cannon! This is a miracle of engineering and the pinnacle of kinetic energy weapons."
Suddenly, there was a commotion on the bridge, as if the information here had brought unexpected surprises to the top-level commanders of the Gufu Empire's Third Fleet.
"How is this possible? "Douglas's tone was skeptical." Giga? The Hyumans have already been able to manufacture giga level kinetic energy weapons? They didn't even master mega level weapons before."
I am not quite sure about the specific military significance of this fact, but I do know that the giga level kinetic energy weapon is the top conventional weapon even in the Gufu Empire. Giant kinetic energy weapons can be classified into thousand level, mega level, and giga level according to the ratio of power and volume. Although the actual power of the higher level is not really a thousand times that of the lower level, the difference between them is also vastly different. There are only two empires in the entire Milky Way that possess the technology to manufacture giga level weapons, and that is the Gufu and our archenemy, the Dundacan Empire.
People debated for a while, and finally, the head of the fleet's technical unit gave a relatively constructive answer: "They are likely to have reversed the wreckage of the Dundacan warship. And from the ship structure displayed here, it seems that they sacrificed other functions of the ship, using the entire hull as an accelerator for kinetic energy weapons. This is completely different from the gigascale weapons we can load on battlecruisers. In fact, this design increases the actual volume of the weapon and strictly speaking does not meet the definition of gigascale..."
"What's the difference at the tactical level? They've already successfully installed this thing on the main battleship of the battleship class! "Douglas interrupted him roughly." Just kidding, they reversed a gigabit level weapon today. They cannot reverse our dark matter technology tomorrow？"
The debate was particularly intense, but I still haven't figured out one thing: "But when they created the Titan class battleships and the Giant Colossus Weapon before, we didn't have such a big reaction, did we?"
”That's not the same nature. The size and cost of a warship and its Planet Destroyer weapons can be built up without restraint, let alone the fact that the ion guns equipped on their Titans are simply not worthy of the name Titan. But this thing is different, "Douglas pointed to the so-called" Renegade "warship in the image." A Titan cannot change the situation, and a giant colossus weapon does not pose a substantial threat, but if there are five hundred battleships equipped with gigascale weapons, it will completely erase our military advantage over Newcastle."
I couldn't help but feel a wave of fear, and a layer of foam powder appeared on my skin.
The narration in the video is still ongoing - we missed a lot of content during the argument.
"Some people say that power can destroy the body, but it cannot destroy ideas. But we will demonstrate to the entire galaxy that the sharp power is enough to destroy all broken ideas!"
I suddenly noticed the colossal object composed of a cylindrical body and a charging ring, and the Giant Colossus Weapon of Newcastle appeared prominently in this image! Could it be that...
"There is nothing we cannot destroy, nothing we cannot protect. Potential collaborators, you have been oppressed by corrupt forces for too long, and some have even forgotten your own potential. At this moment, what you will see is the future of this galaxy -"
I searched around and indeed saw two stars orbiting each other, four gas giant planets, and the beautiful green planet - this is the Radiant System. The Hyumans, they have expanded the true image of their destruction of the garden within the walls to the entire galaxy!
A giant ship hovering in synchronous orbit, a beam of violent energy millions of times hotter than flames, shattered planets, and collapsing Earth's core - I never thought I would witness this process with my own eyes. This is not history sinking in the distant past, this is reality happening right under our feet.
This image has been carefully edited, and ignorant bystanders may find it difficult to understand the brutality and ruthlessness of ecological extinction, only noticing the inspiring - or rather insane - display of force by the Newcastle Economic Union.
Afterwards, the screen suddenly changed to a close-up of a Hyuman, and I recognized him as the Chief Propaganda Officer of Newcastle.
He expressionlessly opened the Hyumans's blood red lips and pale teeth, saying, "The Fallen Empire still holds onto the ruins of their ancient civilization, holding onto an inexplicable fear and distrust of the vibrant new civilization around them. Their era should come to an end."

Stormy-1
“This is part of the strategy, not a personal grudge”——James·Wade, captain of the Tempest battleship, Newcastle Economic Union
Serami Starry-era May 16724, Earth United Nations August 2413 AD​

Hello, this is Captain Wade. Please speak... Are you sure?... Okay, got it, come right away
I hung up the official communication link and involuntarily closed my eyes. The darkness in front of me was about to take me back to my dream just now... but suddenly I sat up abruptly.
The light and thin blanket was brought up and down by my movements, and the white noise of the air conditioning system's optimal sleep mode made a slight sound in my ears,
I turned my head and looked at the clock on the cabinet next to me. The bright red numbers told me it was 4:47 in the morning. I tried my best to analyze every detail of the call just now, and immediately understood it randomly. I'm afraid I can't delay any longer.
"Turn on the light. "I said casually.
The soft light gradually lit up, allowing my eyes to adapt to the light without any difficulty. I looked around the room in metallic color, shook my head, and then put on a military uniform with gloves, Swallow a sobering tablet, turned around and walked towards the bridge.
Just now, a large-scale hyperspace energy reaction came from the outskirts of the Tusca system. It seems that the Tyrannis fleet, which had been facing us across a galaxy for two months, could no longer hold back and launched a full-scale attack.
This is probably directly related to the withdrawal and departure of the Gufu people.
Since the start of the all galaxy war codenamed 'Battle of Heaven', the interests of the Newcastle Economic Union have suffered significant losses. Although I am not from the business world, I am aware that the biggest taboo for arms dealers is to involve myself in war.
The key is that the incompetence of Gufu, the fallen empire, exceeded our expectations.
The term Fallen Empire refers to the oldest surviving empires in the Milky Way galaxy. We don't know what kind of twists and turns they have gone through in history, we can only see that they hold the highest level of technology in the entire galaxy, but they cling to their own narrow territory, holding onto their paranoid values, neither expanding nor developing. We are very skeptical whether they still understand the technology they possess today.
There are four empires like this in the Milky Way galaxy, perhaps with the addition of the strange mechanical empire near the galactic center. Like the mainstream idea in most emerging countries, we thought they would continue to deteriorate until they disappear, but the fact is not so.
Eight years ago, the fallen empire known for its stubborn isolation, the Dundacan Remnant Empire, announced their plan to restore their country without warning and included half of the Milky Way within their own territory. As their neighboring country, Newcastle unfortunately became the center of attention.
Less than half a year later, the Gufu Forerunners Empire, codenamed "Mysterious Observer," declared war on the Dundacan Restorers Empire and announced the formation of the "Galactic Second Alliance" to the entire galaxy. Its strategic goal was to eliminate the threat of the Dundacan Empire and liberate the vassal states threatened by it. I have never been able to figure out where the number 'second' comes from. Could they possibly recognize that the free trade organization we formed is the largest alliance in the galaxy?
The Executive Council immediately established diplomatic relations with the Gufu Empire. Unlike the arrogant Dundacan people, the Gufu people recognized the independent sovereignty of the Allied Powers and did not exploit their productivity. The only substantive limitation in the treaty was that the diplomatic declaration power of the alliance needed to be uniformly allocated by the newly renamed Gufu Arbitrators Empire. This is not a problem for us - we never need to declare war when we go to war. The council quickly decided to join the alliance of the Gufu Empire against Dundacan, and the then CEO Gihade personally participated in the signing ceremony of the agreement. As a result, we even temporarily gave up our status as the chief member of the Free Trade Organization.
But what we didn't expect was that, as a fallen empire, the military strength of the Gufu Empire was much inferior to that of the Dundacan Empire. Even with our assistance, the war only managed to maintain a stalemate on the main southern front. Unconsciously, the war that was originally planned to eliminate the main threat within a year has continued for nearly seven years. What's even more infuriating is that the foolish Gufu people, together with a group of insignificant small Allied powers, passed a declaration of war against the neutral Free Trade Organization - which had been renamed the Non Aligned Organization at the time, let us, as founding members of the trade alliance, find ourselves in an extremely awkward position.
Although the Gufu Empire claimed to have ended its passive governance policy, they still maintained the conservative attitude of a fallen empire in the field of trade, which made it impossible for the Executive Council to launch a plan to seize the dominant power of the Second Alliance through a trade war. The entire Newcastle Economic Union is in a recession, with the stock index falling below its lowest point in fifty years. Anyone with foresight knows that we cannot bear it any longer.
A year ago, the executive council finally fired the pro Gufu Gihade CEO and his staff, and the new CEO Berkeley is the leader of the hawkish Active Defense Alliance. The previously stalled Giant Divine Weapon project has been restarted, and the engineering project for the new main battleship has also been put on the agenda.
Half a year ago, the "Chasing the Deer in the Star River" plan, which was planned by Berkeley executives, was fully implemented. We have launched a surprise attack on the peripheral system of the Tyrannis Empire, which claims to be the Holy Guardian, completely destroying the Walled Garden Planet, which they consider sacred, and forcing them to declare war on the Second Alliance. At the same time, openly provoking all fallen empires while secretly supporting the main fighting forces in emerging countries. If everything goes smoothly, we can turn the current stalemate into a full-scale melee, after all, only when the situation is chaotic can businessmen benefit from it.
Even the most conservative executive officer did not expect that the Gufu Empire would be so weak in the face of multiple provocations from all sides that it would not even utter a fart. After a "mediation meeting" that everyone knew was impossible to achieve a result, they only unilaterally issued a statement of non participation in the conflict to the Tyrannis Empire. Subsequently, the mighty Gufu Third Fleet returned home on the spot, which also made the space defense array we designed specifically for this, as well as the surprise fleet secretly deployed at the deep space black field station on the northeast border, useless.
Everyone understands that the fanatics of Tyrannis will not pay attention to Gufu's statement of staying out of the matter, so why would they do it? No one knows.
And what we know is that now the human fleet has to face the threat of Tyrannis alone. Oh, yes, the Hyuman people. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has repeatedly emphasized that we should use this transliteration as the standard translation for other interstellar countries - but I don't care about it. Our race is called humans, and our species category is called primates. Can anyone question this?
"Sir, your official terminal. "As I walked into the bridge, Deputy Officer Zack, who was on duty at the time, immediately handed me a terminal screen." The fleet tactical meeting started ten minutes ago, and the previous meeting information should have been transmitted to the cloud.
The biometric recognition system of the official terminal was unlocked, and I roughly browsed through the preliminary plans of the commander and the main think tank team, which were not much different from what I had guessed.
We will accelerate the fleet and transfer it from the back of the star to the near orbit on the front. In this way, when Tyrannis' fleet leaves hyperspace, we will be able to rest easy and make the most of the range advantage of the new gigabit cannon to launch the first strike. In this Newcastle Second Fleet, thirty newly completed Renegade class battleships - one of which is the Tempest I am on - will be the core force for the first strike.
In order to unleash the full power of these new main battleships, we concentrated the entire fleet in one direction, causing maximum damage to the enemy in the initial strike. Thanks to the rapid advancement of computer technology and quantum technology, our fleet has a highly centralized command system, which greatly improves the efficiency and accuracy of fleet command.
The new weapon of the Renegade class equipment, the Gigantic Cannon, is an extremely terrifying killer of large warships. I have personally observed the test reports, and the shocking effect when they fire and the tragic scene of the target ship being torn into space debris have left a particularly deep impression on me. Even better, with reasonable tactical arrangements, the range of the gigabit cannon is 10% farther than the main gun of the Gufu battleship cruiser.
In addition, there is a special message attached to the screen, which actually comes directly from the headquarters of the consortium located on the Planet Nutera, with priority represented by the highly alert orange color. I clicked on the entry, and the message was very short, but its meaning made me furrow my brow.
"I think I have a rough idea why the Gufu people evacuated, "I said.
"Why? "Zack asked cooperatively.
"Do you remember the subspace echo we detected nine months ago? "I retorted.
"Of course, the Sentry Array has always maintained real-time monitoring of that signal, right?"
Ah, Sentry Array, what a majestic name. This miraculous giant building is a relic left by an ancient civilization in the Tuban galaxy. After discovering and repairing it, we were pleasantly surprised to verify that the coverage of this super listening device covers the entire Milky Way Galaxy. This officially puts us on an equal footing with the fallen empire in terms of military intelligence.
"Half a month ago, the surveillance department discovered, "I rigorously organized my language," Echo, that the spectrum was astonishingly wide the subspace echo based on the background radiation of the Milky Way has disappeared."
"Forgive my ignorance, sir. May I ask what this represents?"
"This represents that the source of the echo, the immensely large extragalactic superluminal fleet, has arrived at the outskirts of our galaxy. After all, the ancient fallen empire is experienced, and their response to such river scale events is always faster than ours."
"However, the last time there was a large-scale energy surge in the fourth spiral arm, the Gufu Empire also had a similar reaction, but in reality, it did not cause any harm at all."
"Oh, yes, you're right. Those high-dimensional invaders who came from nowhere declared hostility towards all the countries in the entire galaxy as soon as they arrived. At that time, the Gufu Empire also urgently dispatched its main fleet, causing considerable trouble for us who stayed on the front line. But who knew that with the power of the fourth spiral arm's Fariy Joint Council alone, those strange high-dimensional creatures could be brought back to their hometown."
"Will it be a similar situation this time?"
"Who knows, take one step at a time, "I replied noncommittally.

I don't know if traditional pure text novel content is popular, so I read other people's posts. They seem to be using other forms, mixing pictures and self narration. Do I need to add a few pictures?

 

[jak7139]

Captain Wade seems like a very practical, get stuff done, type of character. Very practical given his job in a large corporation. Get stuff done and don't waste time questioning orders or philosophizing about the enemy. I wonder if we'll see more of him.

Pictures aren't necessary, I find. But they can add some nice flavor. Be careful not to have too many though, as they can take a while to load in. It really depends on the type of AAR you're doing. But a couple well placed images, maybe at the start and end of a chapter, can help set the scene.

One thing that might help with readability is adding an extra blank space between paragraphs. Having large blocks of text can be a chore to read (images can help with this, if you space them out at points during the update).

If you want, you can add color or bold to certain words (like names or dialogue) to help distinguish who is speaking. @Chac1 already gave you the link to the SolAARium above. But if you haven't checked it out, it's a great resource to ask questions about AARs and writing. If you want to seek advice there, go for it!

I have seen some and am still exploring the functionality of this forum.
As for the issue of separation, I will find a way to solve it!
