(The MAC round was the thing the frigate fires at the spire.)


 * Through the bridge’s observation window, I can see the battleship coming in.

Me: Helm, give me one quarter on the reactor and turn us to port and around that ship!


 * Faulkner works frantically at his station.

Faulkner: Sir, the reactor, it’s not responding. I can’t get us moving.


 * Just then, the Hansgraf is rocked with a large explosion.

Me: Damage report.

Grace: The primarily deuterium injection assembly just flashed out and the primary coolant generator has failed. Multiple hull ruptures in the engineering section and the reactor is overheating.

Me: Hawk, get me the main engine room.

Hawk: They’re on.

Me: Engine room, get that reactor under control!


 * Chief Engineer Lemont’s voice come through.

Lemont: The emergency shut down procedures have failed. Sir, we need to vent the reactor or the whole ship blow.

Me: Do it!


 * Soon, large gas fumes, smoke, and flames shoot out of the sides of the Hansgraf’s engineering section as the reactor’s contents are blown out of the engineering chambers. The ship’s auxiliary batteries come online with only enough power to keep the ship airborne with her atmospheric thrusters.
