Emergency Briefing: The Prethoryn Threat
Our options are limited, but we might as well lay all of the cards on the table.
** Diplomacy -- The Prethoryn have ignored us except for that initial unintelligble message. We have no way of communicating with them, and therefore can't discover what they want -- if they are even interested in anything beyond destroying/harvesting us. There has been no response from the rest of the galaxy as of yet. We can only hope they will see the threat and come to our aid. Literally the only potentially beneficial option we might have is to revoke our rivalry with the Qravadox. Our borders have been open to everyone else for some time.
** Tenecca -- Our fleet in this system has the opportunity to at least give us information. The weakest of the three local Prethoryn task forces is split off a bit from the others -- we could attempt an attack and see how it goes, though this would almost certainly result in these ships being lost. That's probably going to happen anyway though.
** General Fleet Strategy -- It seems the best chance we have is to put up the best defense we can and try to at least slow them down. Anything we can do to reduce their numbers will probably help us hold out longer. How much that will matter is likely dependent on just how big their primary fleet is, however.
Everyone's on the clock here; any ideas on how to proceed in this quite possibly hopeless situation?
