The Fleet of the Corvus Republic lowered itself down to sensor range and hovered right above the much larger barge below. Up in the bridge, Rear Admiral Aurora commanded her gunners to fire, which they did with eager glee.
The Raven’s Refuge’s broadside guns had all been faced downwards, and fired in near-unison. The resulting BOOM was deafening to anyone out on the island deck of the barge. Everyone else was otherwise blasted to pieces when the shells struck the surface.
Most hit a number of defensive turrets and utterly destroyed them. Their heavy shells punched through their armor and annihilated everything and everyone inside. They were specifically avoiding doing any damage to the barge’s main deck armor itself, however.
The last thing they needed was to punch through and wreck anyone on the decks below.
