Marauders Ships Novels & Stories

The storm was here, and they would either stand and fight or be swept away in its wake. --- Later that day, the rebellion’s forces assembled, a motley group of survivors, rebels, and outcasts who had come together under the banner of the Moonmark. The camp was filled with a tense energy, everyone sharpening weapons, preparing supplies, and setting their sights on the battle ahead. Each person knew what was at stake, and the gravity of the situation weighed heavily on all of them.

The black wolf’s fang eclipsing a silver moon stared up at the council like a declaration of war. "Three thousand Oakhaven mercenaries," Marcus announced, his voice booming off the rafters. "Sailing on a fleet of fifty longships. They’ve bypassed the outer island lookouts under the cover of the heavy fog. At their current speed, they will breach the shallow waters of the western rocky bays within forty-eight hours."

The second woman was almost weeping in her gratitude. “I have twenty-three ships,” he said. “Five more are permanently mapping the waters and following large rivers, so twenty-three, but only six are due back anytime soon,” he drew in and released a breath. “And there is the added problem in that Meguitte in on board of one of the ships.” He looked up. “We will come,” he told them. “And we will give what aid we can.”

Christine then wrote to the elves to buy a three-masted warship. It didn't take long for the elves to reply that the warship was for sale, but the price would have to be raised by 30%. Christian immediately agreed. Warships in the mainland navy are divided by tonnage into single-masted destroyers, which can carry up to 50 people for coastal defense and smuggling inspections. Double-masted light cruisers, which can carry 100 people, are the main warships of various countries' navies. Triple-masted heavy cruisers, which can carry 150 people, are generally the flagships of small nations' navies. A four-masted battlecruiser can carry 300 people and is equipped with ten large bed guns for long-ra

I shouted into the glare, I had spotted up to five tiny ships coming towards us with immense speed. They all had black flags on them, designed with human skull as a warning. “Pirates, oh silly human pirates messing around.” “Oh how very great,” Tasha muttered to herself, she threw her orange peels into the water. “Just as I was about to get comfortable and have a good nap.”

"I have just learned that the crews of the three ships are being held in a small village in Madagascar. They are alive to a man, but are imprisoned there under heavy guard. We will need a full team to mount a rescue." Rick said "Spare no expense. We must get them to safety as soon as possible. After all, we are responsible for their lives. What do you have in mind General Han?" The general had given the matter some thought. He replied "Let me get my men here from Fing City. That will add another two hundred men to our force here. Then I will ask my military friends to join us. I think that we should be able to gather a total of at least one thousand troops to our cause. Most of the merchant

—thousands of derelict ships, some made of iron, some of glass, all caught in a permanent, silent graveyard around the planet. "We aren't the first to escape," Mara said, her voice hollow as she stared at the monitors. "We're just the latest." The derelicts were a grim mirror of their own history. They saw ships that looked like the Sun-Forge’s spires, and ships that looked like the Great Engine’s older brothers. All of them were cold. All of them were empty. "The Siren didn't just let them go," Audrey realized, her eyes fixed on a massive, shattered vessel that bore a striking resemblance to the First King’s original bunker. "She hunted them. Look at the puncture marks. Those aren't from as

The possibility reader was standing beside me, holding a long brass spyglass we had recovered from the crater twenty-one days ago. I looked out at the water. Hundreds of small, flat boats were being dropped from the sides of the massive galleons. Men in polished steel breastplates poured down the rope nets, filling the boats. They moved with that same terrifying, synchronized efficiency. In the center of the armada, the largest flagship—a floating fortress with four towering masts—raised a massive, blood-red flag. "The Vanguard is deploying," Kaden murmured, reading the trajectory of the ships. "They are sending three thousand men in the first wave. They plan to secure the sand, build a defe

Each railcannon spanned the length of the cruiser they were mounted on, and the slugs they fired were larger than the lifeboat Eva was currently piloting. These cruisers were essentially flying glass cannons. "Terra Nach Mar Gunboats," Eva blurted out loud. "Those things can take down entire fleets if left unchecked." Terra Nach Mar was one of the corporations that designed and built many ships in Bellum Aeterna. Their designs revolved around fast strikes and overbearing firepower. Some navies used their ships to swiftly break sieges, so it was interesting to Eva that these 'Golden Apples' were using them to cause a siege instead.

The fated bond flared between them, a blinding rush of golden heat that temporarily obliterated the cold night air. "Sire!" Marcus’s voice crackled through the phone speaker, breaking the heavy, suffocating erotica of the moment. "Long-range radar has just picked up three human naval destroyers entering our territorial waters. They are flying under a classified black-ops banner. They’ve locked their experimental silver-alloy railguns directly onto the frozen obsidian ice wall. Impact is estimated in sixty seconds."
