Roth II

History

Roth II was explored by the Klingon Empire in ????. However it wasn't until ???? that they landed a colony on the planet. Over the nest 5 years the colony grew until it numbered over 250,000. The Klingon Empire also put a number of defensive satilite's into orbit around the planet, after all the Romulan border was dangerously close.

It was dureing this colonization stage that the Klingons noticed the large 4' humanoid flying bugs that seemed to always be around. Weapons fire keep them at a distance and an examination of the bodies killed seemed to indicate they were more a nusance than a threat.

This was not true. The humanoid bugs were intelligent, with a complex society. They watched, learned and waited. In ???? when the Romulans attacked suddenly with out warning or provocation they had their chance.

The Romulan attack eliminated the defensive satilites and the orbiting communications array in the first few second of the attack. Then under cover of a high altitude missle attack on the colony, infantry troops were landed. These troops attacked, useing the confuseion caused by the intense damage from the bombardment to make an assult onto the Governor's residence. They hoped to capture important documents and computer data regarding Klingon troop strength and locations.

The mission was a failure. With both sides total concentration devoted to eliminating each other. It was the opportunity the Rothians had been waiting for. They moved in, seized weapons from the dead on both sides. Then assulted both warring forces.

With victory the natives went a little wild. They hunted down and killed every off worlder they could get their hands on. Men, women and childern. Useing the modern weapons taken from the dead sometimes but most of them also used the 6" razer sharp blades that were part of their natural defense system. These blades are located above their pincer like hands on all 4 arms.

When they were finished they collected all their dead, plus all the weapons and equipment they could, then destroyed all the rest. Then they returned to their underground hives.

The Romulans left. The mission was an obvious failure, the troops lost. When the Klingons came to investigate they found the colonists dead, mixed in together with the dead Romulans. Investigation over.

As for the Rothians, they examined the equipment they took from both the Klingons and Romulans. Especially the weapons. After much trial and effort they discovered the nessassary skills needed to creat their own weapons. Weapons different from that used by the Klingons and Romulans, but just as deadly. As for the rest of the technology only the communications devices interested them. The rest was examined, disassembled, then destroyed or just stored away.
