StarCraft: Tyranid Empire

Meinhof's mines are connected by intricate underground tunnels. Rails are laid inside the tunnels, and ore and personnel are transported by maglev mine cars. Mining lamps and air composition detection instruments are embedded on the walls of the mines. Ventilation ducts send outside air in. In the mine.

Here, the hum of the fan is as constant as the sound of an electric drill.

Just as the observatory's red light flashed, the alarm inside the mine sounded. It was a sharp and harsh metal scraping sound that was enough to make people's skin crawl.

"Pick up your 'picks' and 'hoes' and gather at the foreman nearest you. All mine supervisors, stay at your posts." A mechanical voice echoed in the mine: "The Tyranid fleet They're closing in on Meinhof, but we'll fight them off!"

Swann wanted to get the tool box he had brought, but after a moment's thought, he chose the lunch box, and then climbed onto his mining robot with steady steps.

The density of miners in the mine was not very high. Swann had to drive the robot to the next mine before he could see other miners. However, considering that the observation platform was the family's most valuable property, Swann decided to stay in front of the observation platform. Of course, another reason is that he really wants to know the battle situation in synchronous orbit.

The holographic projection on the observation platform jumped again, and green battleships representing one's own battleships appeared - two Hephaestus-class Kaimorian battleships that were competing with the Tyranid Federation's Behemoth-class battlecruisers.

This two-thousand-foot-long giant battleship was designed and manufactured after the Federation's battleship, so it is very similar in appearance design and bridge position. The biggest difference is that there are more electromagnetic gun turrets, more laser cannon groups, and more missile and space torpedo launch bays. Some warships will also be equipped with electromagnetic interference weapons.

But just like other weapons and warships of Kemorian, traces of stitching can also be seen on Kemorian warships, and armor materials and levels are also uneven.

In Swann's eyes, he even felt that these warships were directly modified from the Titan-class transport ships of the Kelanis Transport Guild in the starport dock, but this did not prevent him from being proud of these warships.

The actual scene of the fleet battle cannot be seen from the old observation platform, but Swann can imagine that scene. The battleships opened their docks, and the Cerberus and Sky Wolf aircraft swarmed out. Their opponents were the Tyranids' Avengers. And the latest Wraith fighter.

The battleships fired at each other, orange laser beams and the light of missile explosions igniting the deep space.

Like the rest of his family, Swann was quick-tempered. Swann has little patience when it comes to things other than machinery and technology. He is worried about his own fleet, and his inner irritability and worry are completely reflected in his hands that have nowhere to rest.

The Kaimorian fleet is at a great disadvantage, while the Tyranid Federation has seven Behemoths and four Leviathan battlecruisers, giving the enemy an absolute advantage.

The observatory's old database could only parse out the names of its own warships and two Leviathan-class battlecruisers, and those two battlecruisers had participated in the Tyranid Federation's capital parade more than ten years ago.

The people of Meinhof did not expect that the war would affect this mining planet with a population of only a few million. Compared with other planets in Kemorian, Meinhof is close enough to the home planet of Moria. It was absolutely impossible for the Terran Federation's fleet to appear in the hinterland of the Kaimorian Federation territory before today.

Unless the Kemerian is retreating, unless the fleet is no longer able to control the distant star systems.

Due to the extremely strong interference, the holographic projection on the observation platform faded in and out, making it extremely unstable. The broadcast rang a dozen times in a row, but Swann still watched it all from the driver's seat of the mining robot.

The first ship to be kicked out of the battlefield was the Kaimorian battleship. It broke into several pieces after a flashing garbled code. Part of the wreckage was pulled to the ground by the gravity of the planet, like an egg exploding in slow motion. Flying towards the edge of the observatory like a shell.

How many people will die?

Swan thought of this problem in sadness. A capital ship usually carried one thousand to three thousand fleet soldiers, and although most of these people were Morian soldiers, he still felt for them. sad.

Another Kaimorian battlecruiser seemed to have been damaged. Swann knew the name of this battleship and was extremely familiar with it. It was the starport of Meinhof that cast this battleship, and it was also the only battleship built on this planet during the war. Most of the soldiers were directly recruited from Meinhof, including mechanics from the Swann family. .

This battleship tried to ram into the flagship of the Tyranid Federation fleet out of desperation and the belief that it would defend its homeland to the death. This was indeed a last resort, but it was actually very difficult to do. This is not the sea, space is a three-dimensional battlefield.

The Kaimorian battleships are slower than the earliest Leviathan-class battlecruisers of the Tyranid Federation. Whether it is the Kaimorian or Umoyan, their battleship engines are at least one generation behind the Tyranid Federation, which was the first to enter space. .

No miracle happened, and the remaining battleship stopped moving before it got close to the enemy ship. In the holographic projection, federal fighter planes and boarding ships are surrounding this motionless steel giant, like mosquitoes on a dead body.

It's all over.

Meinhof does not have an orbital defense platform or an anti-aircraft gun cluster capable of shooting down enemy ships in low-Earth orbit. These two battleships and their attached fleet are the planet's only defense force in outer space.

Under Swann's sad eyes, three Behemoth-class battlecruisers separated from their mother fleet and accelerated towards Meinhof. Although Swann didn't know much about military and strategy, he could almost imagine what these warships would do next.

The few military fortresses on this planet will be destroyed by nuclear bombs dropped from high-altitude orbits before the Tyranid landing forces land on the ground, and then the Tyranid marines will land in various cities.

It would be more beneficial to the Terran Federation to capture Meinhof than to completely destroy it, so they won't destroy everything. The Tyranid's targets are the planet's mining companies and the Ardean crystal deposits that accumulate in the mines and ports.

While Swann is scared, she is also worried about her friends and family in the New Apollon community.

In the propaganda of the union representatives, the Tyranids are undoubtedly heinous, and they are the most greedy people in the entire Koprulu sector. The workers of the Terran Federation have always been exploited and squeezed, while the interests of the Camorian working class are protected by the union.

This is indeed true.

In the past ten years, the mines established in the edge worlds far away from Moria have been occupied by the Tyranid Federation. In recent years, the Tyranids have become more and more aggressive and are even preparing to annex the mining industry within the territory of the Kaimorian Commonwealth.

If the Kaimorian Federation chooses to swallow their anger, in a few years, under the encroachment of the Tyranid Federation, their sphere of influence will slowly retreat to their home planet of Moria.

In the eyes of all Kaimorians, the Commonwealth was forced to declare war. They fight solely to protect the unions and mining companies oppressed by the Terran Confederacy. Almost all of them were part of a union, and of course they were fighting for themselves.

The three battlecruisers, the dark blue Meinhof, were closer, and some tiny points of light fell from the battleships like flashing powder and fell into the planet. They were the Tyranids' airborne force spaceships and their fully loaded Marine landing craft.

After updating the observatory's database, Swann saw the name of one of the Federation battlecruisers.

Iron justice.

The third update is over.
