*The tactical alarm sounds. T'mar looks at her screen.*
T'mar: Several Federation ships just lock phasers on us!
Drake Thompson *Over comm*: This is Captain Drake Thompson of the U.S.S. Ganymede to Republic, El Dorado, and renegade ships. You are ordered to stand down or be destroyed by Starfleet Command. This is your only warning!
John: Oh hell!
Can we take off yet?!
T'mar: Negative! Our repair crews are still outside!
John: Shields!
*The Republic raises shields just as a phaser beam hits them. In orbit, all the Federation Vessels converge on the El Dorado and Mother of Intervention, locking weapons.
The Klingon ships move into attack position and lock onto the Federation Ships.
Federation-Klingon Border. Federation Ships begin moving in on KDF Bases, being met by Every Klingon Fleet in the area. The Federation Fleets open fire and spark open conflict with the Klingons.
2 hours earlier, the Klingons announced a decision to break away from the Federation in response to the events at Turani VII. With this attack, the Klingon Empire and the United Federation of Planets are at war.
At Turani VII, the R.S.S. Seagate arrives and starts moving in on the ship firing on the Republic. The ship turns to engage and her Omega Cannons tear through the Seagate's shields and destroy her.
Markon's Squadron begins strafing the Federation Vessels, his Kilrak-Class Battle-cruiser leading the way while the 2 K't'inga-class Battle-cruisers fire on the Federation Escorts targeting the El Dorado. The K'dal-Class Bird-of-Prey follows the Bat'rak in.*

OOC: Info on the Kilrak-Class.
Visually, she looks like a much more streamlined and advanced K't'inga, with three disruptor cannons mounted on each wing aswell as 2 torpedo launchers. She also doesn't have the thin "neck" the K't'inga has. Instead, she has a much bulkier but swooping neck, flowing into the main hull.
Under the hood, however, she's a completely different animal. She has 6 Torpedo Launchers (One at the front, one at the back, and two on each wing) capable of launching phased-quantum torpedoes and advanced Klingon Ambi-plasma Photonic Torpedoes (6 at a time on the forward and aft launchers, 2 at a time from the wing-mounted launchers).
She has a fold-jump drive with a range of 1000LY, 3 shields (1 primary bubble and 2 secondary "skin-tight" grids) and 20 Disruptor Cannons (12 forward, counting the wing-cannons, and 8 aft. 6 of these are beams with a 180-degree firing arc each.)
She has a max speed of Warp 17, plus slipstream and transwarp drive. She can keep up with the Federation's fastest escort at impulse speeds and has an Enhanced Battle Cloak. She has incredibly good manoeuvrability aswell.
Info on the K'dal class.
Built to replace the ageing B'rel-Class, the K'dal is the Empire's fastest attack vessel. She has 8 Disruptor Cannons (all mounted forward, 4 mounted on the wings, 2 on the main hull and 2 on the forward module) and 5 Disruptor turrets (Two placed on the top of the wings (one on each), 2 placed on the dorsal side of the Main hull (one on the port side, one on the starboard side) and 1 on the belly of the main hull. She also has 3 torpedo launchers (One mounted on the forward module, one mounted in the main hull - pointed forwards and one pointed aft on the main hull above the central impulse engine), each capable of launching 3 advanced photoplasma torps at a time.
She can make Warp 34 and Fold-jump in a 10LY radius. She also has Limited Slipstream and Transwarp abilities.
She has an enhanced Battle Cloak and one Shield Bubble.
She can outrun the Federation's fastest Escort at 75% impulse, and can turn just as quickly at full.
However, if you can hit her, her shields are weak and her hull can be breached with 4 High Yield Quantums. But she also has armour capable of withstanding twice that in one area.*
