*looks for small nations to plunder*

YOU are a small nation.

i have my eye on you!

*launches a spy plane in Baggy's direction*

Tsk Tsk Tsk Marcell. *shakes head sadly* Didn't you learn your lesson last time? I had your country completely blockaded before that thread was deleted or whatever. Do I have to do so again? Or should I just RP from where we left off? Either way, you're not going to accomplish your goal so you might as well just accept that fact. The sooner you do, the sooner you can move on.

*eyes a nation to annex* :twisted:

I saw it first! LoL

OOC: I was going to let this die...again...but now that's not likely.

Send a spy plane our way and we will bury you.

i have my eye on you!

*launches a spy plane in Baggy's direction*"I was hoping he would do that...."

The Overlord looked at the aide. "Report."

"The SAT-LINK systems pinpointed it's locaton, speed and course. Fighters are ready to intercept."

"Deploy them as soon as it enters our airspace and immediatly declare war. We shall not put up with small nations thinking we will overlook them."

"Yes sir."

Oh come no Remiesia....it can be fun to slaughter nations like this in an RP....hehehehehehe *evil cackle*

spy plane at your age?! dont you mean a homing pigeon with a very questionable camcorder?

I saw it first! LoL

Wanna do it together? I'll even use my tall frigates I bought from you a while back! :D

Oh come no Remiesia....it can be fun to slaughter nations like this in an RP....hehehehehehe *evil cackle*

Well I was all set to kill him the first time but noooooooo...Unum Veritas had to shoot down the spy plane that he launched at me, destroying my pretext to turn Marcell into a smoking crater. :lol:

I saw it first! LoL

Wanna do it together? I'll even use my tall frigates I bought from you a while back! :DBack off. He's mine....

Oh hell yes...it looks like this is gonna turn back into an ownage-fest. And Isolationist People, I would be honored to smite this nation with you.

IC- Both task forces remained off Marcell's coastline, despite the obvious waste of assets in dealing with this pest. The commander of the overall operation has just received word to initiate a full blockade on the country: nothing gets in, nothing gets out...

shing-lo has set up a new system of tracking and shooting down marcells black homing pigeons with camcorders duct taped to them. we can onloy hope that he launches more, as we really want to test our new system.

I saw it first! LoL

Wanna do it together? I'll even use my tall frigates I bought from you a while back! :DBack off. He's mine....


Awww! Oh well, next one I guess. I wouldn't stand much of a chance against you.

Sorry bout that Remiesia. This time don't wait for a pretext, just jump on in with me and Isolationist People. Its always fun to have a little live-fire target practice!

Come on Baggera, there's enough to go around. Why don't we all single out a section of the country to wipe out? That way we can share in the interests of international goodwill.

The overlord looks pissed. That spy plane was taking too long to get to South Korea.

"Damnit, launch the fighters and blow the plane up and launch the dropships. We're not waiting."

The Interceptors roar into the sky above the geneticly engineered battle armored troops loading into the dropships.

Come on Baggera, there's enough to go around. Why don't we all single out a section of the country to wipe out? That way we can share in the interests of international goodwill.Mmmm... okay, I get the capital and first second largest city in line after that. You can both have the rest.

An excellent idea!

We're resurrected so we *do* actually have all this stuff that we're going to send.

1 Nimitz carrier
1 Iowa BB
2 Wasp assault ships w/LCACs
2 Virginia SSNs
5 Arleigh Burke DDGs
3 Ticongeroga CGNs
1 Sacramento AOE

Fleet will rendezvous with UV's ships.

Well Baggera, I think you're being a bit selfish, but since you were here first you can have it. Isolationist People, my commanders have orders to await your ships arrival and to give you a section of the naval blockade. Once your ships are in position we'll have a transport helo ready to bring some of your liason officers aboard our command/flag ship to coordinate efforts. Right now I think it'll be more fun if, instead of actively bombing the poor guy, we just sit off his coast and put a complete blockade on him. He'll run out of food/ammo/supplies in general soon enough, and then we can do with him as we please. What do you think?

Under orders from the Admiralty, the DKS Agamemnon and her escorts, including the newest Shearwater-class Battleship, the DKS Neptune, and four of the eight brand new Tripoli-class Destroyers set sail for international waters just beyond the United States of Marcell, a clear warning to that nation to back down.

Alucaneet cannot condone the weak attempting to gain power, we will aid all who strike against Marcell

OOC: Uh, BTW... our dropships are going to be coming low and fast, not bothering with blockades. Baggeran troops don't usually tell anyone what's going on, they just show up, kick ass, occupy, then go home after a while.

I guess I should go ahead and re-post all the ships I have in the area. And yes, it is quite a bit of overkill, but my sailors/airmen were bored. I have two Task Forces, and each Task Force includes two dual-carrier battle groups, so multiply the following numbers by 4.

2 Hover Carriers
4 Minesweepers
1 Command Ship
100 Hovercraft Troop Transports
2 Hospital Ships
12 Los Angeles Class Attack Subs
70 Hover Attack Boats
5 Hovercraft Transport Ships
2 Amphibious Assault Ships
15 Arleigh Burke AEGIS Class Destroyers
6 Oliver Hazard Perry Class Frigates
8 Replenishment Vessels
4 Iowa Class Battleships

Aerial Assets:
40 X-29's
60 F-22 Sea Raptors
10 AC-150 Tankers
10 E2-C Hawkeyes
20 Sea Kings VIP/ASW Helos
40 F-14 Tomcats
20 F/A-18 Super Hornets

Marcell, is a small little country that will get itself ironed flat if it doesn't watch it

OOC: Uh, BTW... our dropships are going to be coming low and fast, not bothering with blockades. Baggeran troops don't usually tell anyone what's going on, they just show up, kick ass, occupy, then go home after a while.

Alright Baggera, but could you give us a bit of warning first so we can be sure our ships don't fire on you by accident? Friendly fire is such a bother... Although I still think it would be more fun to just sit off his coast and shoot down anything that moves.

Marcell, is a small little country that will get itself ironed flat if it doesn't watch it

The ironing has already begun.....heheheheheh (I'm bored in case anyone hasn't noticed)

And as for what we have on the ships...well figure it's a Marine division.

OOC: They'll brodcast an IFF code when they approach, but after that, they are just going in to sack the capital.

Kotterdam, I'm assuming you're forces are friendly to the still-forming coalition. Would you care to have your ships join in the blockade of Marcell? I think there might be a bit of water that doesn't have a ship sitting in it....lol

for every military person i lose, you will lose 5 civilians

*grins*

as i speak, my elite guerrila troops are scouting your countries

Have fun with my "all-pervasive police force."

Alright Baggera....this could be so much more fun. Just remember that if by some strange chance your forces get beleaugered, then I have 8 Amphibious Assault Ships, complete with their Marine detachment, ready to airlift quite a few pissed off marines in to back your forces up. Not to mention the aerial cover you can have. Just feel free to ask for it, if you need it.

My task force (top of this page) will get there in 30 minute RL time.

I hope there's still a country left when it gets there.

Marcell, I'm going to assume these "Elite guerrila troops" were somehow in our country before the blockade was formed. However if you start attacking civilians then you cross a line that cannot be uncrossed, and with over 100 warships sitting off your coast (not to mention the countless fighters/bombers), you might not want to cross that line.

BS. My nation is sealed. The military watches the borders and there are NO airlines. Besides, I've got my nation under 24 hour watch. You can't get in.

"SIR! A COMPLETE FOOL HAS COME INTO SITE! ORDERS?"

Still a primitive weapon. Saw it on Conquest :lol:

OOC---sorry, i just picked myself up off the floor. My side still hurts from laughing at Marcell's last post.

IC---Things were quieting down within the coalition's blockade when the AEGIS destroyer's SPY radars went off again.
"Is that ANOTHER spy plane he's sending out? Wait, no that's a whole flight of them! Hasn't he lost enough yet?" the commander demanded. "Fine, take these out too. What a waste of a missiles, but we have to clear the way for that Baggeran invasion force."

With that, an airborne E2-C Hawkeye vectored in a flight of X-29 fighter jets towards the inbound spy planes. The spy planes hardly stood a chance with the X-29's highly advanced maneuverability; not to mention the vastly lopsided ratio of fighters to spy planes. The X-29's loosed a total of 16 air-to-air missiles at the four spy planes and bore in after their missiles....ready to finish anything they missed.

Still a primitive weapon. Saw it on Conquest :lol:Saw it on Mail Call.

No, wait, it was Mail Call! He was launching the watermelons!

OOC: Hell yeah!! :twisted:

IC: The First Preator looked at the proposal on his desk. The Dipolmatic Council had done an excellent job this time. The Isolationist Empire, with the help of a few other nations, was about to get a little bigger. The nation of Marcell was the target, a pitifully small nation compared to the might of the Empire. Yet they had decided, in their folly, to threaten some other nations, of which the Empire was on friendly terms with.

"The fools. They have opened the gates of hell upon them." That brought a smirk to the Preator's face.

Turning to his desk, he picked up the phone and called the Chairman of Defense. "Dominus, we have a nation that has become a 'problem', and it needs to be taken care of. I'll send you what we know. Make the arrangements to take care of this 'problem.'"


OOC: Anyone know the layout of this nation? I wanna know a little about what we're gonna conqure. Besides that, my forces will take the southern part of his nation and any cities there. Here's my forces:

o0o0o! but UV, i bet Marcell has super-de-duper shields on his awsome stealth spy planes! dont try to shoot them down! :lol:

No, wait, it was Mail Call! He was launching the watermelons!

Yep, Gunny had fun flinging them mellons :D

Come on Marcell....you need to post the destruction of your 4 spy planes. And Baggera, where's that inbound invasion force? Sure you don't want any help?

PS----I'll be back in about 15 minutes. Remiesia, you have control of my part of the coalition until I return...use it well.

c, id help...but im a future-tech nation. :wink:

ROFLMAO!!!

My troops will have fun with your wood trebuche for fire wood once they conqure you.

UV, my naval forces will arrive in about 30 min RL. I can't be sure if I'll be on, but they'll get there. The rest will air-lift in once the marines capture a suitable site.

The 30 dropships launch from their ports, going up to about 800 feet and going full blast. With them are 35 Interceptors and behingd them at the basses, the bombers begin to roll out of the hangers, readdy to help if needed.

Word is sent to the fleets to expect the ships overhead within a half hour(IC).

Don't plan to do anything until my ships arrive...12 more minutees.

may a future-tech nation join?

No, wait, it was Mail Call! He was launching the watermelons!

Yep, Gunny had fun flinging them mellons :DWait! That's not just a mellon! That's my lunch!

Baggera's got dropships and such...so sure, I guess.

Lol true, funny how they edited that last one.

may a future-tech nation join?

I have no qualms, since he's fighting against us with catapults.

Baggera's got dropships and such...so sure, I guess.

Lol true, funny how they edited that last one.

ok, then. if everyone is fine w/ it...eh...then...

[shoots down spy planes] hey! it works!

Kotterdam, I'm assuming you're forces are friendly to the still-forming coalition. Would you care to have your ships join in the blockade of Marcell? I think there might be a bit of water that doesn't have a ship sitting in it....lol

From what I've been reading, you guys are stacked bow to stern out there, but yeah, our ships are there to join the blockade. We have the following ships on-site.

1 x Kitty Hawk-class Aircraft Carrier
1 x Shearwater-class Battleship
1 x Wasp-class Amphibious Assault Ship
1 x Mercy-class Hospital Ship
2 x Belknap-class Guided Missile Cruisers
2 x Anchorage-class Landing Ship Docks
2 x Kilauea-class Ammunition Tenders
2 x Henry J. Kaiser-class Fleet Oilers
2 x Mars-Class Combat Stores Ships
4 x Halifax-class Frigates
4 x Tripoli-class Destroyers
4 x Seawolf-class Submarines

A fleet of:

1--Firestorm [Super Carrier]
2--BattleCruiser Mk-1 [Heavy Carrier]
2--BattleCruiser Mk-2 [Heavy Carrier]
50--Interceptor Mk-1 [Heavy Fighter]
50--Interceptor Mk-2 [Heavy Fighter]
50--HellraiserInterceptor [Super Fighter]

take off from their normal patrol pos. and enter hyper-drive towards the planet the Mcll is located.

Okay, I think that's prolly all the ships we can possibly fit around so small a country. But in any case, I'm back and ready for some action. I need Marcell to go ahead and post his loss of four spy planes. I would also like to mention that should your supposed ICCM's be launched I have two Ohio class SSBN's in the area, so I wouldn't do that. Let's keep this conventional, shall we?

Yes, no nukes or chems or bios. We need something to take over after the fighting, after all.


Fleet will arrive in 12 minutes.

*looks at clock*

Nice, my fleet has arrived.

Okay.....I've got a Sea King VIP transport helo lifting off to get your liason officers. What ship should they head to?

Firestorm [now in orbit of Mclls planet]:

Com.>>"Arm all OTS [Orbit to Surface] weapons"
Combat Officer>>"Arming"
Tatical Officer>>"Arming"

The dropships and escorts fly over part of fleet blockading Marcell. The roar is thunderous as the Impulse and Ion engines push the ships through the atmosphere at Mach 3, creating a ripple of sonic booms behind them.

This is the sound that every Baggeran soldier knows. To Baggeran troops around the globe it is the sound of approaching battle and victory.

To your fleets, it's just a helluva lot of noise.

The dropships continue towards the capital, not changing course or speed. the fighters move ahead to clear the way of anything that rises to stop them.

Vi20....I don't normally RP w/ space nations so I don't really know what to do. Just be sure you don't completely wipe them out. I think we want to have some fun with them first.

A flight of X-29's as well as a flight of F-22 Sea Raptors and an E2-C Hawkeye climb to an altitude just above the dropships, and escort them into Marcellian territory (or at least try to keep up).

Considering the number of ships arriving on scene, I doubt this will be neccesary, but should any of the invading countries require fire support, the Shearwater-class Battleship has three semi-automatic eighteen inch battleship rifles and two hundred and fifty Tomahawk missiles in VLS tubes. Also, the Tripoli-class Destroyers have 125 Tomahawk VLS tubes a piece. These are at the disposal of the Coalition.

Okay.....I've got a Sea King VIP transport helo lifting off to get your liason officers. What ship should they head to?

RNS John McCain, the carrier.

4 Super Hornets are flying CAP over the fleet.

Our battleship's guns are at the direction of the coalition as well.

Com.>>"Send all Battleships down there---lets start hell"

n/m

Vi20....I don't normally RP w/ space nations so I don't really know what to do. Just be sure you don't completely wipe them out. I think we want to have some fun with them first.

ok,then...dont wory. I no what im doin ;)

Alright, the helo will head that way. Another Sea King is headed to Kotterdam's flagship to get its liason officers and bring them all back to the UVS Glycerine; Task Force Tragedy's command ship.

This would be more fun if Marcell would actually post; that way we could shoot stuff down rather than just sitting around staring at the screen.

High above the contingent of Kotterdam vessels circles a lone E-2C Hawkeye and a quartet of F-72 Broadsword fighters flying CAP. Their orders are simple: Keep the bottle held tightly closed while the Coalition forces go in and erase Marcell from the map. Seeing as the air crews hadn't heard of Marcell until a short time ago, there was a decided indifference to their attitude... At least until the dropships started coming in.

"Eagle Lead, this is Orpheus..." radioed the Hawkeye. "We have inbound tracks moving well in excess of Mach two. Can you confirm?"

"Affirmative, Orpheus. We've got them. Damn, but they're moving!"

The four ships streak across the sky as they enter the atmosphere.

"We are through Fleet Command"
"Copy"
"Orders?"
"StandBy, let the others do some damage also" *grins*

Fleet has arrived, and is hanging back behind the other ships already there to avoid conjestion. A single Sea King lifts off from the carrier and heads towards the UVS Clycerine to meet with the other liason officers gathering there.

Meanwhile, a CAP of 3 F-14 Super Tomcats and 2 F-18 Super Hornets are launched. On the deck and hangers, sailors are prepping the first flight for bombing missions on the southern section of the nation.

This would be more fun if Marcell would actually post; that way we could shoot stuff down rather than just sitting around staring at the screen. :lol: :lol: :lol:

OOC: hes lost! poor fellow!

IC: Comm>>"do we have a clear fire down there?"

"Yesir!"
"Very good. Fire if they give anyone any trouble"
"Roger"

Aboard the McCain, A-6F Intruders are being armed on the hanger deck. On the decks of the assault ships, AH-1Z King Cobras are being readied for launch, as well as CH-53s.

The Overlord watched from his War Room and smiled, "When will they reach the capital?"

The General spoke up, "20 minutes sir."

"Good. Have them initiate low altitude drops and prepare to send in mechs if we have too."

"Yes Overlord."

"And General... I don't want to have to deply Mechs to deal with this situation. They are far too expensive to risk on something this small."

The General nodded quickly. "Yes sir!"

------------------------------

The invasion force is continuing to close on the capital, still moving at mach 3, not broadcasting any more IFF codes, as they are past the fleet.

Alright, the helo will head that way. Another Sea King is headed to Kotterdam's flagship to get its liason officers and bring them all back to the UVS Glycerine; Task Force Tragedy's command ship.

"Unum Veritas Sea King, this is the DKS Agamemnon. We have you on our scopes now. You are clear for approach to Agamemnon to deposit and collect liason staff." There was a chuckle over the radio. "You can't miss us. We're the big ol' aircraft carrier. Do you require escort?"

Aboard the UVS Glycerine one of the first things to be decided is the chain of command for the coalition. The second is the overall gameplan: do the countries just hang back and slowly bring the nation to its knees, or do they launch an all out invasion?

Just so I know, who's going to head where? I know Baggera is going for the capitol and biggest city, and I'll take care of the southern part of the nation (whatever size that is), but what about everyone else?

(OOC: damn... I wanna help... but im space/future tech :( can I help anyway? *thinks precision orbital bombardement of his civilians would be fun*)

"That's a negative DKS Agamemnon. No escort is required."

I'll take the Eastern and Northern portions of the country (the areas where my amphib ships are massed).

I'll secure any ports/docks he has (can't be that many) with my Marine division, if nobody objects.

(OOC: damn... I wanna help... but im space/future tech :( can I help anyway? *thinks precision orbital bombardement of his civilians would be fun*)Hey, I'm sending in geneticly engineered troops wearing battle armor in dropships. Ortillery strikes are fine with me as long as you don't hit my forces too much. ;)

Sure Bladmasters...we already have one space tech nation. Just be sure to not go too quickly and leave us some time to have fun.

Oh, and I'll take any costal towns that would make a good beachhead.

Firestorm:

"Lets fire one OTS jes to get em scared"
"yesir--activating TAC computer"

*pause*

"Ok, nav is set...get ready to fire"

OOC: Im only gonna fire this when u guys want me 2. jes tell me where and in 1 min we'll here bells :twisted:

OOC---Now if only I knew what that was....lol

A lone UH-1N-4BN is going on a recon run along the coast.

A Seahorse class Special Operations Submarine surfaces along the deserted coast of Marcell. The SEAL team quickly exits the dive hatch and heads into the country...

"O, hell---Fire the %($(* thing!"

*KA-POWWWW!* [lol]

(OOC: don't worry, us AIs can hit individual people with our orbital bombardement)

A Drayus Warcruiser pulls into orbit over Marcell, and its gauss cannons acquire targets, and begin firing onto the nation, striking houses in small towns throughout the countryside.

"Overlord! They have reached the capital!"

Var'chak grins. "Deploy the troops!"

--------------

That message is relayed to the dropships. As the soldeirs pour out of the now hovering dropships, the true size of the force is seen. Each of the 30 ships carried 60 fully armored, heavily armed, pissed off geneticly engineered supersoldiers.

All 1800 troops land within ten minutes and begin to move through the capital from all sides, dropships and fighters shooting at industrial and commercial areas, as well as fire departments.

The DKS Neptune slides closer to shore, bringing more targets within range of her eighteen inch guns. Carefully avoiding locations where friendly troops are known to be operating, she opens up on whatever coastal defenses there may be, first with cannons, and then following with a wave of fifty Tomahawk missiles, using her tremendous firepower to blast a corridor for the Coalition troops to secure as a beach head.

*A streak races across the sky as the devistating OTSM nears the surface*

"Report?"
"Sir, its on track and looking good"
"perfect. time till impact?"
"20 seconds sir"
*another grin*

Hmmm....not much for the navy to do until a decision is reached on rather to invade or just blockade....

Just know that whoever takes the beaches will have to let a number of other people come through with their troops and armor. Anywho....


Capt. Mark "Hammer" James strapped himself into his trusty Super Hornet. It had been a while since he'd actually had to use her in something besides landing drills. After doing his normal checklist, he waved to his wingman, Bobby "Iceman" Snow, giving the thumbsup "go". Positioning onto the catapult, Hammer lit the fires on his burners, lifted the brake, and shot off the deck at 140 mph.

Climbing to 6500 ft, he and his wingman headed south-southeast towards the nearest city with a runway big enough to handle airlifts.

OOC: back in a little bit, dinner time.

12 A-6Fs, 10 King Cobras, 4 LCACs, and 5 CH-53s are ready to roll.

UV, say the word and we launch.

Meanwhile a quartet of Hornets is searching for SAM sites....not really expecting to find any, but hey, better safe than sorry.

The battleship Freedom moves closer to shore and brings her 16-inchers to bear on any targets of opportunity.

I've got the beaches, and I intend to open them for a large-scale landing by anyone else's troops.

*An explosion suddenly erupts on the surface*

"Report?"
"Sir, the launch was a green---It seems like we have damaged part of a major military base, that could be the one that deployed the spy planes"
"good, did we leave something for the others?"
"yesir"

Hmmm....not much for the navy to do until a decision is reached on rather to invade or just blockade.... invade em' then lets c if this guy will wake up!

Over the command net:

"Tradedy leader, this is Colonel Swanson, callsign Avenger Six. Awaiting orders to hit the beaches, over."

Alright, the Veritasean ships, tired of being held on a short leash, have begun to unleash their strength. The 8 Amphibious Assault ships are launching their full Marine contingents. Massive shore bombardments have commenced, and the entire coalition has been given the "green light" to commence with their own operations. The history of Marcell as a free country is about to end.

Over the command net:

"Tradedy leader, this is Colonel Swanson, callsign Avenger Six. Awaiting orders to hit the beaches, over." need an air strike?

The soldiers swarm through the streets, mosly unmolested by police and miltary. The public safely indoors, making it easier for the city to be taken.

One group of soldiers finds a gas station after about 20 minutes and plant plastic explosives on the tanks. Soon a giant fireball is seen in part of the city.

Troops in other parts cheer at the sight of it and head for the government buildings and the palace.

Swanson to all Remiesian units:

"It's a go, it's a go! All units, we're moving in - weapons free, clear to engage any targets of opportunity!"

"Yeeehah!" A Cobra pilot was heard to exclaim as his chopper lurched up off the deck of one of the Wasps.

LCACs speed towards the shores as the Cobras dart in overhead.

I tend to get really detailed so I'll leave this for now and really do a good hit on the beaches.

Veritasean Marines jump off their transport heloes outside of one of Marcell's major cities (or as major a city as so small a country can have) and begin rushing inside. There is a military base located near the city, and some resistance is expected.

*an urgent sounding voice crackles through the entire fleet*

"SCRAMBLE ALL FIGHTERS! SCRAMBLE ALL FIGHTERS! invasion is a green! repeat, invasion is a green!"

*a spectaular sight, all launch bay doors fling open and 50 fighters fly out of the bays and head toward Mcll air space*

Soon, soldiers have found the new sport of "Gassing". All over the city, gas stations explode, sending fireballs and thick black smoke into the air.

Cobra flight leader:

"Whiskey 6 to all Whiskey elements, weapons free. Keep your eyes peeled for armor."

The Cobras raced over the sea at over 150 knots, gunners searching for targets.

"APC at 11 o'clock, three hundred yards."

A Hellfire streaked off the wing pylon and streaked towards the APC, blowing it apart as it impacted.

The LCACs drive right up onto the beaches and drop the ramps, and Marines come spilling out onto the sand. Humvees fitted with TOWs and MGs roll off the hovercraft and AAV7's swim ashore, turrets sweeping the beach for targets.

Only a few Marcellian units dared to say behind, and they were quickly wiped out by the swarm of Marines and their vehicles.

Retreating Marcellians, falling back from the beaches along the roads, were pounced on by the gunships. Some small towns along the coast were garrisoned, but as soon as the Freedom started dropping its Volkswagen-sized shells on their dug-in positions, the defenders quickly changed their minds.

"Swanson to Tragedy Leader, first wave ashore with minimal resistance. Second wave inbound to sieze the town of (XYZ) and secure the port. Macrellian forces are falling back inland and our Cobras are all over them. Over."

CS NewsWatch-

An aircraft, later identified as a spyplane, was shot down over the NATAC training grounds earlier today. The incident happened during an excersise in closed airspace. Western ATC gave repeated warnings to the craft which went unanswered, once the craft crossed into the airspace over the training grounds, western ATC alerted NATAC Control that it had an unknown entering their area and gave them the altitude and heading, efectively handing over control and responsiblity of the craft's disposition to the military. A UAV, which was part of the excersize was redirected to take a look at the unknown, know designated as 'bogey-U1'. After being observed by the UAV for several minutes ground controllers decleared the craft to be unknown to the region and potentally hostile as it was knowingly in closed airspace so it was declared a valid target for destruction, two minutes laterit was brought down by a 'Raptor' missile.

Hey guys, I'm out for tonight, but feel free to RP use of my forces against Marcell. (but only if done wisely). I'll pick this thread up tomorrow.

*150 fighters sweep across the nation and take out any enemy armor in sight*

Second wave of Marines lands near the town of (xyz) and moves to secure it.

Third wave will secure the town of (abc) to the east of (xyz) as the first wave drives inland....that will open up a nice corridor to land heavy armor, for whoever's interested.

The troops suddenly lose intrest and reboard the dropships and go home, their point made. The Overlord makes an announcement to Marcell. "See what happens when you screww with nations that are hundreds of times your size?"

The dropships leave the area. No soldiers were hurt. No part of the fleet lost.

OOC: I gg and this is boring as hell. You can runs his nation, byt every gas station in his capital was destroyed.

Hey guys, I'm out for tonight, but feel free to RP use of my forces against Marcell. (but only if done wisely). I'll pick this thread up tomorrow. Yeah *yawn* i g2g also. feel free to use my units. they are currently flying a CAP over Marcell. i 2 will be back ASAP. later and goodnight. ;)

Yep, Im done in this thread for tonight. My boys are ashore and have taken VERY minimal losses. A corridor will be open in a few minutes for a massive landing....so forth and so on.

I wonder what Marcell's gonna do about this?

OOC: my naval guns and aircraft are assumed to be on autopilot, bombing the crap out of anything that looks like a target.

Later fellas.

As soon as the first troops were ashore, the signal was given. Ten AV-19 Lightning II Close Air Support fighters plus the six off of the DKS Ortona screamed for shore, the VTOL fighters hunting for tanks, and other armoured vehicles. Meanwhile, twenty F-72 Broadsword fighters streaked for shore, ten armed for Wild Weasel missions, and the other ten for Air Superiority. The ten Wild Weasel fighters struck out against the enemy's Air Defense centers while the other ten hunted down his air force, in concert with twenty F/A-18E Super Hornets.

Two flights of aircraft bearing Confused States markings streak across the skies, their targets are Marcell's petrochemical industries. One group heads for the oil fields and the other head for the major refining centers. As they near the targets, the flights change formation so as to spread the effects of the FAE bombs they carry over a wider area. On command, over each target, the entire flight releases their bombs at the same time. Three minutes later, they go off and the shockwave from the blasts show up on sisemographs as a pair of mag 1 earthquakes, one slightly behind the other.
A major portion of Marcell's petrochemical industry just ceased to exist.

OOC: dang, everyone left. Oh well.

IC: Hammer and Iceman scout the southern end of the nation, taking notes on where SAM sites were, armor formations, bases, cities, and general things of interest. Seeing a small town, Hammer decides to make a point, and dives towards the ground. Pulling up, he levels off at 150 ft off the ground, punches the afterburners, and streaks over the city, breaking most of the windows in the cities. With that show done, he heads back towards his carrier to report their findings, and give the marines something to do.

Meanwhile, C-141's back in the Empire are being loaded with Airborne troops. (I'll RP them tomorrow)

OOC: didn't plan on adding anything more but if anyone is still planning on launching attacks through the night, know that all the coalition forces are at your disposal.

(we expect them back tomorrow :D )

OOC: Assuming IP shared his intelligence with the rest of the coalition... If not, this is based off intel from the fifty fighters I have over Marcell.

Off-shore, the Kotterdam naval contingent prepares for another massive naval bombardment. Joined, this time, by the four Tripoli-class destroyers the DKS Neptune launched a massive Tomahawk missile bombardment. Two hundred and fifty missiles, fifty from each ship, raced in towards the Marcellian coastline, targeting whatever SAM sites the Wild Weasels missed, as well as the nation's major military installations. Within minutes, the country's air defense network simply ceased to exist.

Marcells 4 spy planes explode and a shack on the shores of the nation falls apart dp to lack of maintenance


*launches 30 trebuchets weilding heat seeking titanium spheres to the outskirts of Marcell*

*scuba geared water guerrila commandos start swimming towards the blockade when the sun goes down*

you guys are pathetic all allying against me!!

hahahah

Properly equipped, the commandoes might have been able to reach the ships if it wasn't for one little problem: The ships were under way. No man could swim as fast as a cruising warship, and pity the combat swimmer who got drawn through the screws. The guerilla commandoes mission, doomed to failiure from the start, caused not a single Coalition casualty.

Meanwhile, from the pair of Anchorage-class vessels, a trio each of LCUs cast off and made for shore, six in total. Onboard: a total of thirty Merkava Mk. V tanks and their crews, ready to roll once they hit the beach head blasted open by the Shearwater. And they weren't alone. Forty IFV-2 Normandy Amphibious Infantry Fighting Vehicles set off for shore from the well deck of the Wasp-Class Amphibious Assault Ship, each fully laden with ten infantrymen a piece for a total of four hundred mechanized infantrymen.

you guys are pathetic all allying against me!!

hahahah

OOC: Yeah, and there are no American troops in Baghdad. They are all lost in the desert... :roll:

*Tortar builds up its turret defense system on the side facing Marcell*
*A few units of 100 sniper horsemen begin patrolling the area*

"We shall not have to worry about the hostilities of Marcell for now."

Unopposed, the Normandy IFVs make their landings, spreading out and forming a beach head with the aid of their infantry. Soon, the LCUs follow, their egress hatches dropping with a great clang. Merkava tanks roll off the forward ramp one by one, thirty tanks in total. With their tanks rolling up to support their perimeter, the infantry and armoured vehicles hold the beach head as the other twenty IFVs, held in storage aboard the Wasp-class ship head ashore. These are the specialist vehicles... The five minesweeper Normandys, the four anti-air vehicles, five engineer support variants, two mortar carriers, and three gun carriers, as well as the command vehicle.

Com.>>"Ok, I want all MI and EF units in operations to get a breifing, then to quarters to prep for combat."
CombatOfficer>>"Yesir"
*the combat officer then pushes a few buttons on his control panel*
Com.>>"I want to sent them down there by SC, and i want all SC to have a LV [MBT] in it."
"Copy...we should be ready in aprox...4mins [RL]"

Re-embarking their infantry, the IFV-2s roll forth first, ahead of the tanks as their variant bretheren joined them. Even the anti-air tracks would prove vicious in any battle against the Marcellian Army. With the F-72 Broadswords from the DKS Agamemnon streaking through the sky, hunting for anything not belonging to the Coalition, the likelyhood of an airborne threat was low. Even so, there would be a use for them: That 20mm Vulcan Cannon would be as lethal against ground targets as airborne ones.

Building up to convoy speed, the tanks and the IFVs strike out for what their intelligence tells them is the largest remaining concentration of enemy troops. Between the air strikes, the other members of the Coalition, and the vicious naval bombardment, whatever resistance they do encounter is likely to be light.

Meanwhile, out at sea the Neptune and her destroyer escorts rendezvous with the Ammunition Ship, taking on additional tomahawk cruise missiles with which to engage enemy targets.

"Sir, Troops are ready for deployment"
Com.>>"Good, get em down there"

OOC: Thanks, Vi2o. *Grins* It certainly took me long enough.

lol, i bet :lol:

Racing in from the Wasp-class vessel's flight deck came an MH-60K Pave Hawk embarked just for this specific mission: Delivering a SWORD team deep into enemy territory. Dropping off the team, the chopper lifted off and returned to base, almost as if it were never there to begin with. The team of fourteen men faded into the Marcellian countryside just as easily, dissapearing like ghosts. Their mission: Seek out the Marcellian leadership. Capture if possible. Terminate if neccesary.

The Marcellian combat swimmers swam the eight miles to Remiesia's ships, but as they approached them they were spotted and hideously machine-gunned by Browning M2s manned by very angry sailors, for they had run out of air in their tanks long ago and were on the surface.

After having no opposition, my forces silently move forword, expanding their perimiter. on the way they identified some of KDs soldiers, but didnt open fire. They also see the wrecked sams and armor from the Marcell Military.
After moving about 5miles into Mclls nation, they still see no hostile activity of any kind.

"Swanson to Tragedy Leader, we've secured towns (abc) and (xyz) and have pushed five miles inland. The beachhead is secure and we haven't seen much by way of opposition.

You're clear to land heavy armor on this position at any time, over."

AH-1s are sweeping up to ten miles inland while Hornets and Intruders are bombing every military target they can find.

Wondering vaguely if the Marcellians had bothered to train a military before declaring war on the entire world, the Kotterite force rolled on, a tremendous wall of steel seeking an enemy to crush. Thus far, the only weapon discharged was by an infantry sergeant who took a deer with his Fabrique National FAL, dropping it with a single 7.62 x 51mm round and hauling the carcass aboard his Normandy to skin and butcher for dinner later, making him the hero of his squad.

Now, orders have been recieved for my units to press toward the capital and meet up with other allied forces there.

Com.>>"I want more units down there to assist in gettin' the government. how long will it take for another transport to arive and deploy troops?"
"Sir, that operation will take aprox 10mins at the most"
Com.>>"I want it, get it here now"
"Yesir"
*A Nightstar takes off from Vi2o and heads towards the fleet with 50 EF marines trained for take-overs like this one*

"Sir, we have radar contact with the Nightstar, UCV H211."
Com.>>"Good, CommScreen"
Computer>>"CommScreen activated"
*a screen flickers reviewing the commander of the Nightstar, She grins at the crew and begins to talk*
NightstarCom.>>G'day all, im gona off-load the units down there by the tens after i enter the atmosphere, u hear?"

--the conversation goes on for another 30 seconds--

*the NightStar then enters the atmosphere and off-loads troops by SC*

ok, the trops are on the ground and running around the nation. [boring RP, thats why im posting such bad posts]

*launches 30 trebuchets weilding heat seeking titanium spheres to the outskirts of Marcell*

OOC: oh oh oh something to kill!

IC: Recon team - "Longbow, this is Foxtrot 3, I've got eyes on enemy...well....artillery, requesting fire mission. Grid coordinates Echo Sierra Seven-Niner. Equipment and personnel. Fire one round HE, stand by for correction."

Freedom Fire Control Center: "Roger Foxtrot 3, confirm coordinates Echo Sierra Seven-Niner, one round HE with correction. Mission on the way."

The battleship fired one Volkswagen-sized 16 inch HE shell, which took a little over a minute to reach its target. It landed square in the middle of the formation of trebuchets, throwing up a fountain of dirt, shrapnel, equipment, and mangled bodies.

"Longbow, Foxtrot 3, that was perfect! Requesting all guns for three salvos!"

"Roger Foxtrot 3, all guns ready, same coordinates."

"Fire for effect!"

The nine 16-inch guns of the Freedom opened up and thundered for several minutes, firing a total of 27 rounds at the trebuchet formation. When the pounding of exploding artillery shells ceased, the recon team slipped away, headed back towards the beachhead.

ok, thats it! Marcell, im gonna keep burning down ur nation until i get 1trillion credits from you. u gotta pay for the weapons, the fuel and the time i have wasted with you! EDIT: ok, maby jes 500billion credits

Later all, ill be on again in a while. good luck w/ this - - - :roll:

:wink:

Due to the... major naval presence in the waters off Marcell Confused States will conduct it's actions purely from the air

Fair enuff.

OOC: so wait.. the "16-inch guns" recon thingies destroyed all of my titanium non-volatile projectiles?

*45 anti-air avengers (jeep with mounted gun, and missles) drive to strategic locations for defense*

*launchces 10 unstable airplanes (high in the air) in the direction of the oncoming navy, the coordinates seem to be the command station on the ships themselves*

*20 more trebuchets come out with the anti-air avengers*

Yep, I'd say that 16-inch diameter artillery shells flung ashore from a battleship would do it.

*a few of the water mines starts to drift towards the oncoming navy*

OOC: Just as a rough figure there's around 1,000 - 1500 ships in the waters off Marcell. Looks like Channel off Normandy during D-Day :)

Radar operator - "Sir, ten airborne hostiles bearing 240 for 25 miles. Heading for the fleet."

Word is relayed to the McCain, and the three AEGIS cruisers in my task force lock them up with radars.

Seconds later, a total of 10 Standard SM-2ER SAMs blast out of the vertical launchers on the cruisers and race towards the oncoming aircraft. Standards hardly ever miss.

*the unwavering pilots in the kamikazes still head toward their target*

*about 7 of them are completely obliterated in the sky*

*2 others get hit and start to fall, the pilot can still somewhat steer them in the general direction*

*1 narrowly misses saved by another explosion, he continues his path*

"Seven splashes, 2 are losing altitude, 1 still on course."

"Damn, get the CAP on it then."

~~~~

"Roger that," the leader of the Super Hornet CAP radioed back. "Going hot." He flipped up the red cover on the Master Arm switch and flicked the silver toggle with his index finger. A small green "120" popped up in the bottom corner of his HUD.

He looked left - 2 Super Hornets hung in the air, both pilots looking at him through the canopies. He looked right - the other Hornet pilot gave him the thumbs-up.

"Command, Valkyrie flight is on target and engaging." He lit off his own search radar and watched the JTIDS display light up as each of the icons representing Hornets drew a yellow line, representing a radar lock, to each of the 3 remaining "hostile" icons.

"Four, you take the guy who's holding altitude."

"Roger," came the reply, and Valkyrie Four locked up the aircraft that hadn't been hit. He and his leader were both targeting it.

"Fox One," Valkyrie Leader called as his thumb jammed down on the red weapons relase button. The AIM-120 AMRAAM dropped away from its pylon on the starboard wing and fell about 20 feet before its rocket motor ignited and sent it streaking towards the lead hostile at Mach 5.

Valkyries 2, 3, and 4 repeated the process, each calling their missile launch. They waited as the AMRAAMS tracked straight and true.

"Stand by for Sidewinders," Valkyrie leader radioed. These bastards were not getting through, not on his watch.

OOC: Here's where the 'steel umberalla' opens up to cover the ships off shore.

Pending, of course, the outcome of 4 AMRAAMs launched at them.

"Valkyrie Leader, this is Eagle Leader off the Agamemnon." crackled the call over the radio. Boring in on the kamikaze bombers, a sextet of F-72 Broadsword fighters tore through the sound barrier as six powerful air-search radars lashed the target with their energies.

"Thought you might like a hand, Valkyrie Lead." Eagle Lead's eyes narrowed as the shrill tone of weapons lock. "If you miss, we've got 'em."

---

Meanwhile, steaming in at full speed from Kotterdam, a pair of Avenger-class minesweepers fresh out of the shipyards made their first contribution to the nation's navy by eliminating the free-floating mines before they even got close. As the falling bombers arc towards the ships, every CIWS in the DKN battlegroup opened up, roaring their defiance out to the bombers at several hundred rounds per minute. Ten ship-launched SAMs, a combintion of Evolved Sea-Sparrows and SM-2-MR Standard Missiles from different ships streak up to meet them. Nothing was getting through to the battlegroup. Not two wounded bombers and one heavily besieged one.

---

On shore, the messages were coming in from home via satelite while the men stopped for rest and a bite to eat. "Gentlemen..." announced the ground force commander. "We just got word from home. Terrorists, probably funded by Marcell, have plotted to take hostages in our hospitals. They would use our sick and our injured as a weapon against us. Fortunately KISS caught wind of their plot just as the orders were given. SWORD teams have crushed their attempt. There are no hostages at home. All the terrorists are either dead or in custody."

"Eagle Lead, Valkyrie Lead. Thanks for the offer, we've got 'em locked and if the Slammers miss we're gonna jam Sidewinders down their throats."

OOC: the falling planes aren't close enough for CIWSs yet, but if the AMRAAMs miss, open up on them by all means.

Abord the FireStorm CC:

"Sir! it seems---it---it seems as if Marcell has-d-d-done something!

"Yesir"
*all ships begin a scan on the nation*

Sergeant Vega crept slowly over the hill, crawling on his belly so as not to skyline himself. In the not-so-far distance beyond him stood an airfield... Probably the only intact, enemy held one in the country. Falling back silently, he transfered this information to his commanding officer using hand signals. They hadn't found the Marcellian leadership, but the SWORD team had, in fact, stumbled upon an air field. Quickly, they transfered the coordinates to the Neptune via zip-squeal radio to avoid detection

---

Out to sea, the Shearwater-Class battleship went to work. Her cannons came about, the big battleship rifles thundering as they punched out over a hundred and fifty rounds per minute, laying down a devastating carpet of fire. That airfield would never be used again.

Feel free to call our Intruders should you anyone need a quick strike.

We laugh at all of you nations wasting time and valuble money/resorces to fight this n00b.

When reached for comments, one of the Kotterite pilots was quoted as saying "It's like the world's most realistic shoot-ex!"

While the other allies in the fleet were busy defending against Macell's attacks, IP's ships stayed back behind, lingering in what would still be considered International Water. But those were just the warships. Inbound to the beach were 60 Hovercraft transports and 5 WASPs to unload their troops compliments and armor assests.

Once the unloading had finished, the force consisted of 25 Mammoth Tanks, 50 Minigun Tanks,20 Crusaders with ammo carriers, 100 CFAM HUV 15B Heavy Supply Trucks, along with 20,500 soldiers. They formed into their columns and headed south, towards the closest city in their southern sector.

Meanwhile, 20 C-141 Starlifter's and 25 C-5 Galaxy's lifted off from their bases in the Empire, along with their escorts of Super Tomcats, Super Hornets and RF-11 Archangels. After inflight refueling, they will reach their drop point in 1 hour RL (don't know if I'll be here). Their course would take them towards the biggest airport and military base in Macell.

Remiesian Marines cheer and wave as the IP heavy armor rumbles by.

Engineers are setting up a supply depot just inland from the beach to sustain any armored drives. Once completed it will be available to all Coalition units.

The last of the Marines are being ferried ashore and will form up with the first wave.

IG: *the 50 anti-air avengers and their crewmembers set their missles and machine guns to shoot anything in the immediate air space*

*about 5000 infantry (armed with ak-47's) and about 500 grenadiers (armed with rocket-propelled grenade launchers begin to scatter around the forefront of the nation against the enemy*

(hey, don't worry about it. RL is more important than this. I'm not always on myself, just RP what you feel like when you can. I have no problem with that. Oh, do you by chance have a map or anything of your country? I don't want to start naming your cities, but its getting kinda hard to just say 'heading to that city".)

Can I have any of their spy planes as my airfarce (not a spelling error) can use as target practice, unless you want to use them yourselves of course.

We would be willing to pay you up to $100000 for them

OOC: so what happened to the last 3 kamikazis?

Feel free to call our Intruders should you anyone need a quick strike.yeah, same here-ive still got 4 600mt OTSMs left. :twisted:

Combat Officer>>"Sir, we are picking up readings of 50 anti-air avengers on the surface of Marcell."
Com>>*grin*...

OOC: It wouldn't be right to take them out with an OTSM...will it? i mean, they dont stand a chance! im in orbit around the place and have the power to blow up four more targets with 600mt OTSMs!

OOC: Nukes? No way. Do you have anything a little more...subtle?

ok, u no what? bunk this---im a space nation, i cant blow the hell outta Marcell, its not fair! well, goodluck guys [and girls if any :wink: ]

*as the barrage of gunfire hits the last 3 kamikazes, one of them chickens and ejects out as the bullets tear him apart*

*2 of the planes explode in the air, one of them is basically a falling hulk, the hulk might hit a ship depending on the density of the navy there (5000+ ships? geez)*

OOC: Well technically my missiles would have gotten them first, but no, not that many ships. Somebody said 1000 not too far back...

OOC: my bad, forgot about the missles. lol

OOC: same results though?

"Splash 3 bandits," Valkyrie Leader radioed as he watched the last 3 planes, spewing long trails of flame, plunge into the water.

"Nice shooting, fellas."

Eagle Lead whooped his way through a victory roll, throttling back to a more fuel-efficient cruising speed.

"Confirm three kills, Valkyrie Lead." Eagle called out. "Damn, but that looks good on camera. Correct me if I'm wrong, but at least one of those was yours."

---

Now the battle would truly begin. The force from Kotterdam was inferior in numbers, but superior in equipment. Their Level III body armour would take at least five hits from the enemy rifles in quick succession. Their big 7.62 x 51mm rifles would wreak havoc on their targets. That and the armoured vehicles would make a hell of a lot of difference.

Again, the 16 AV-19 Lightning IIs took to the air. Laden down with cluster bombs and rocket pods, they sought out the Avengers from low altitude, using hills and other terrain features to conceal themselves from fire while they scouted out the locations. Where possible, they tore into them with rockets and cluster bombs. When not, they called on the DKS Neptune to bombard them with naval fire.

"Roger that, Eagle Lead. We're returning to station."

---

On the ground, the last of the Remiesian Marines had been put ashore and were forming up for a push inland.

2500 Marines were ready to attack, about half the Division. They had brought along their AAV7's and Humvees, and had chopper cover slated.

However, it would still be a few more hours before everything was ready. Who knew if a counterattack would occur in the interim.

btw, my forces where never in Marcells nation. and i never caused any damage. im like, in the year 3000 and u guys are in around 2010. Turn of the century fellas ;)

OOC: This is still going on? I'm glad I had Baggera pull out...

*If Marcell doesn't counterattack in the next 7 hours, I'm assuming that my Marines have started their push inland and are meeting very little resistance.....*

ill add my navy to the blockade.

Alright everyone...sorry I've been gone for the past two days, but I'm back and ready for some more slaughter...

The 8 Veritasean amphibious assault ships in the blockade have fully deployed their Marine contingency to various points of Marcellian territory. Meeting little opposition, they continue their track inwards towards key strategic sites. As they move in closer, the various naval ships in the blockade begin bombarding Marcellian shore heavily. The very ground and sky seem to shake from the noise. The destroyers also begin keying up their Tomahawk cruise missiles for more devastating blows. Deep penetration air strikes have begun, and the skies have been declared coalition-friendly. Most SAM sites have been struck, and any airfield has been demolished.

The beachhead has been set up and the supply depot is finished. All coalition forces in this sector now have a rearming/refueling point.

Reinforcements can now land freely in the Remiesian sector and move inland without any Marcellian threat.

In other news, 2,000 remiesian Marines have begun a push inland and are encountering little or no resistance. Artillery and air support stands by, ready to blast anything that stands in their way.

im not needed here, and am about to wage a war against two nations at one, so....

*pulls navy out*

The Veritasean Marines have pushed their way inland and are currently within the former Marcellian capital. The Veritasean flag has been raised over the capitol building, signifying the loss of Marcellian control. There are still pockets of organized resistance that could take a while to sort out, but a major Marcell-led offensive seems unlikely. Assault helicopters and fighter-bombers are searching out any military bases and destroying them, while the coalition's assault forces secure the major cities and attempt to revive law and order. Food shipments have been allowed to pass the naval blockade and are being handed out by coalition forces to the starving Marcell populous.

The Kotterdam forces, shifting from an offensive mode to a more peacable stance, take up policing roles in an attempt to prevent the descent into lawlessness that would occur in a complete power vaccum. Troop transports laden with engineers and military police begin ariving in the Remiesian sector to help rebuild the infrastructure and maintain order. High Command wants to send a message to the populace that the war was waged against the government, not against the people.

While other coalition forces were setting up their bases at the beachhead and pushing inland, dozens of C-141's and C-5's flew overhead to deliver their loaded paratroopers. The roar of so many transports flying overhead created a loud roar, as the escorts of the transports flew in and out of formation, waving their wingtips in welcome at the friendly forces below.

Once at the designated point, hundreds of troops throw themselves out of the backs of the planes, dropping down to take control of the military base outside of (abc?) city.

Approaching the city from another direction was the first column of IP troops and armor unloaded before.

Don't hijack another thread.

OOC: since Marcell hasn't posted in a while to my para-attack.....

IC: Empire Press News Report - In Marcell

Once on the ground, the paratroopers moved in quick succession to capture the leading personel on the military base, and to take the base commander prisoner. The armory and other strategic places were also seized within the first two minutes. However, there were a few casualties in this attempt, though they were far fewer than expected. Overall, 38 IP soldiers were wounded in gunfights on the base, another 15 were injured upon landing incorrectly, and still another 7 were killed by Marcellian soldiers. Though the news of light casualties were very much welcomed, IP commanders were confussed to learn that the base only contained a skeleton crew of soldiers manning their posts.

OOC: Back on the top of page 10 he said that RL was getting in the way of being on here, looks like he's had a busy weekend

(I know, but still wanted to give him a chance to post. I'll wait a few days to give him some time, also to decide my next move)

Well this RP has obviously died, so if it isn't revived in two days, consider my forces pulled out.

Marcell-M-l=ARCEL!

Marcell-M-l=ARCEL!
But I remembered Arcel as a homophobic kind of person...
If it is arcel, I advise everyone to ignore and leave. Not worth it.

OOC: whether he posts or not, I'm still going to continue on in annexing him. I want the land.

Oh and TROUSRS, check your foreign policy thread, I posted my delegates response after everyone else.

Remiesian troops get bored, declare victory, and go home.

lol; hehehehehehe

IP troops do likewise. Southern Marcell now belongs to the Isolationist Empire! :twisted:
