With a defiant 'plunk', the Hutt fleet plopped out of hyperspace at the entrance to the famed Kessel run. A domineering collection of vessels, they immediately spread out to form an effective blockade over the only way into or out of, the Kessel system.
The Despoiler, a Cal Class Battleship served as their command vessel, upon whose bridge the infamous 'Supreme Mogul' of the Clans was positioned. Around it three Ajuur Class Battleship, the Rancor, Aklay and Nexu powered up their weapons and shields. Swarms of Batil Pattern Fighters headed into the darkness of space around the fleet, ready to intercept whatever would do their master's harm.
The Bountious Reaping, a Strike Class Cruisier, carried itself off to the flagship's starboard, with two Praetorian Class Frigates, The Subjugator and the Glory of Carkoon on the flagships port. Position in a diamond formation beneath the flagship, four Interceptor Class Bulk Cruisers, Jiliac, Jabba, Doruuga and Garatha could be found. Finally, eight Z-27 Syndicate Class Corvettes held back behind the main line, ready to deploy as screening vessels, or landing ships for a ground attack, if needed.
On the command deck, Nor'baal opened a broadcast channel to the entire Kessel system, and spoke in basic.
"Citizens of Kessel, rejoice and surrender. Your system is now property of the Hutt Clans once more, and all of you are once again my subjects. You have five minutes to comply, or this blockade shall continue, until you starve.
