In the lower right corner, we have two Stings, equipped with two twin blaster turrets and a enhanced point beam each.

In the upper right, three scared little constructors and the Frigga appointed to defend them while they work. The Frigga is a carrier ship equiped only with four fighter bays capable of deploying Hornets. Hornets carry but a single dumbfire missile a piece(power is divided by 5 of course).

Right off the bat, the Frigga deploys it's fighters into the side of a meteor. Not a good start...

Of course, Redwarrior's enhanced point beams are plenty enough to prevent such a mistake, something DFnewb should have thought of.

Fighter squadron on it's way to intercept.

The fighters scramble while letting loose with rockets.

Except for one, which promptly gets atomized by blaster fire. The left set of Hornets takes note of this and ducks behind some asteroid cover.

However the Stings respond by hopping over and lighting them up.

Another squadron of fighters is unleashed, apparently the Stings wisen up and realize they have to take out that Frigga or they will die of attrition.

Seems that constructor(which is getting dangerously close to the action) was hit by a meteor.

Fighters exploding right out of the bay, poor guys didn't stand a chance...

It also seems the Frigga lost a armor panel in the back, in addition to heavy damage toward the front.
![](http://img53.imageshack.us/img53/3669/battle1pic15.png)
The Frigga dives behind some asteroid cover to buy some time.

And a constructor goes behind enemy lines and gets clobbered by a meteor.
![](http://img191.imageshack.us/img191/8412/battle1pic17.png)
And another constructor gets a chunk blown off, are these guys flying drunk?
![](http://img63.imageshack.us/img63/7443/battle1pic18.png)
The same constructor gets
another chunk blown off while the other one receives fire. Where are those Hornets?
![](http://img262.imageshack.us/img262/8797/battle1pic19.png)
In hopes of mercy, the constructors attempt to squeeze by the marauding Stings. Luckily they seem focused on the Frigga at the moment.

![](http://img441.imageshack.us/img441/6645/battle1pic20.png)
And for good reason, at this rate they can finish the Frigga off in not too long.
![](http://img36.imageshack.us/img36/7725/battle1pic22.png)
And the Frigga dives behind some asteroid cover again... This may take a while...
Well lets take a look at those Sting hulls shall we?
![](http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/2083/battle1pic23.png)
![](http://img44.imageshack.us/img44/3835/battle1pic24.png)
Not too bad... One has some heavy damage, but neither have lost anything as of yet.
![](http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/3692/battle1pic25.png)
Dedicated lil' buggers... Still, they are the only things whittling away at the Stings besides the asteroids, and the asteroids need to be lucky.
![](http://img406.imageshack.us/img406/7996/battle1pic26.png)
The Frigga releases another swarm of Hornets, but much to their dismay the Stings were ready and pumped them full of blaster energy the moment they left the bays.
![](http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/4959/battle1pic27.png)
Oh no... What are those crazy constructors doing
now?![](http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/7730/battle1pic28.png)
![](http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/214/battle1pic29.png)
OH THE HUMANITY!![](http://img401.imageshack.us/img401/6929/battle1pic31.png)
![](http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/129/battle1pic32.png)
With the constructors gone, all that is left is the Frigga, which is on deaths door as is. This will be over soon...
![](http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/2223/battle1pic33.png)
It tries to dive into a cluster of meteors, bad move...
*Smash*![](http://img190.imageshack.us/img190/9563/battle1pic35.png)
The Stings polish off the last fighters.
