Nankinese military finds island, blows it up.
Today in a show of military force, the shortly dormant Nankinese military sprung into action to secure 2 square miles of land for Premier Riyth and the goodly people of Nankin. The assault was first kicked off by cluster bombing the island, which lays in between Nankin and another - as of yet - unnamed nation. As of 3 PM this afternoon, 2 battlegroups have surrounded the island, which was until recently inhabited by 3 humans and a cow. The 2nd Airborne Cavalry has since taken over the island and set it ablaze in a show of manlyness. More at 11.

I see, a policy of appeasement! 2 more battlegroups have eben dispatched to secure the island - that cow is putting up one hell of a fight.
The citizens of Sirocco, watching on CowCam are amazed, and egging on their champion that famous beef-eating bovine, Hannibal Lactater.

The Empire has claimed that island for 14 years, and demands an apology for the loss of life. The island was near a colony, which may be why it was unknown to the Nankin government.
[OOC: Yes, Diminix, you can RP it.]
Premier Riyth officially apologizes for the loss of life and will pay $3 million per person to the Fluffywuffyian government in reparations.
But the fight with the cow continues....
*********
The Ospreys stayed 50 meters off the waves as they approached the small island. A landing party from the Rodina had been completely wiped out, and now even with constant bombardment from Soyez III adn Iowa class battleships, there was still a problem, and so the 2nd Airborne Cav was here to settle the score.
A Comanche slipped in front of the lead V-22 as turbulence rocked the craft, knocking the lieutenant of the men in the back off his feet for a moment. Once they went "feet-dry" the flight of 70 rotary aircraft (40 V-22s, 30 RAH-66s) banked sharply down to 25 meters as the Comanches streaked ahead.
In seconds the lead Comanche spotted the problem: a cow.
"Uh, this is Bird Lead to airborne, we've got a...well, a cow down there. I'm going to take a closer look."
"Roger that Bird Lead."
The helicopter slipped down to 10 meters and the pilot was thrown into sudden shock.
"Shit! There's 20 bodies around tha-"
[Your play, Mr. Cow.]

"The Government accepts the money and the money will be paid to the families of the victoms."
Taiwanese animal rights groups are outraged (as usual). They plan to blow up an effigy of Nankinese President, the 2102nd effigy they blew up this year.
"Mooooo"
The cow leans its head down and takes a bite of grass. It looks over and see's Commanches comin at it.
"Moo.."
The cow shifts its position over to the right and begins squirting milk at the choppers.
The milk flies up and covers the cockpit of the helicopter. In sudden shock, the pilot tips the nose forward violently and the Comanche smacks into the ground in a burst of flames - 22 Nankinese dead so far.
The first Osprey comes over the horizon and flips to its side; the master chief of the helicopter handling the right side mini-gun holds a determined look on his face as the first tracers leap out towards the bovine. The dirt around the animal is kicked up as the bullets are led into their target.

Moocow.
*news flash*
Cows from all over the formician countryside secured their freedom by brutally stomping cowhands and charging fences. The cause for the sudden transformation from docile beast to an angry, organized force, is unknown, however many cows have been seen lurking near shipyards. More updates as information continues to come in on this developing situation.

news flash
Those annoying animal rights people have just stolen military equipment and flown to the island where the cow is being attacked.
Several of them aimed their shoulder rockets at the man with the minigun and fired a shot each sending three rockets at him as several people fired with ak-47's.
The comdidian government claims no responsablity due to the fact they are not part of the military but just crazed civilians.
ooc- theres only about 30 of them.

Fyreheart condems this unholy cow and wants to know if we can use it for our barbecue later today.
"Take that you stupid co-"
The rocket impacted on the chief's head and detonated a half-second later, tearing a hole in the right side of the craft. The V-22 rotated hard to the damaged side and spiraled into the ground, killing all but 5 aboard. THose living soldiers rush out of the dead bird as 2 more go down around them. After running 20 meters, they hit the dirt and start firing at the attackers.
"FRAG OUT!!!!!"
The grenade flew out of the launcher and into the group of opposing forces. 1 soldier fell from oncoming AK fire as the other continue to put down fire on the hot area.
From above, 2 Comanches swoop in behind the enemies and target them with their rocket pods. A total of 40 explosive rockets pop out of their tubes and towards the ground - explosions rip the ground up around the cow as bodies are sent flying into the air. A football field south of the fire-fight, the remaining Ospreys hover to allow the rest of the men's departures as the battle for Bovine Field continues.
