General Nilats stared across the border with the field binoculars. The tanks rolled into Communist Idealism whilst the planes flew overhead. The small nation just beneath Communist Likon on the massive island they share (but Communist Likon mostly posesses) was evidently not big enough for two nations.
The planes would make two runs over the ancient and beautiful mountain city of Jovita, the ancient capital city of Communist Idedalism, and once the head of the Empire of Likon, when the whole island was one nation under one king.
Before the first Revolution split the two nations in half. Gen Nilats wouldn't destroy the beautiful capital yet, he wanted to posess the crown of the old Empire. He had sent a message 2 hours earlier, that either Communist Idealism would be annexed by Communist Likon, or the stones and citizens of Jovita would be ground into dust.
Back home in Danube, the party for progress were trying to prevent the blatant imperialism, but Nilats took no heed.
His army began to march upon the road to Jovita, if Communist Idealism didn't surrender, by the time they got there it would merely be rubble on a hill.
He knew that the leaders of Communist Idealism would surrender, what choice would they have?

The Parliment of Communist ideealism was in an uproar. The ancient carved wooden walls were echoing the shouts of many frightened men.
"What choicec do we have?" One shouted"We must surrender!"
"Never!" Shouted another, a man in a dusty brown military uniform."We will put up barricades and fight to out last breath"
"Gentlemen" Came the authorative voice of the President, Mr Hestrol. "Gentlmen; our first act must be to evacuate all women, children, and older persons. We must protect the citizenry! If only we had more time. We must mobilise the army immediatley! The only question is shall we fight in the city, and risk its destruction? Or evacuate and lose it, perhaps forever?"
A quiet arose amongst the parliament. They could not answer this question, although they knew they must make a quick decision. The quiet held, as the first of the planes began their warning run over the city.

The Admiral ran over into the Pool Room, whre the leader of his nation, the COBAIN was playing chess with his brother, but there was something in the way.
"Polly wanna cracker" He heard the COBAINs bird chirp as he entered the room.
"Sor, All Apologies but i must interrupt your game" The Admiral said. "We have received news from our intelligence network, our operative Floyd the Barber in Communist Likon says that crazy fool Nilats is going to invaded Communist Idealism!"
"Great Gatsby!" The COBAIN exclaimed. "Hurry we should so something immediatley!"
"What sir?" The Admiral asked.
"Think about this Admiral, if we could stabilise the situation, and then slowly implant our military, and economic factors upon Communist Idealism we could turn them into an ally, not only that a Capitalist Nation. Imagine that...we could install military bases on our arch nemesis very island! Hurry send our pledge of Support to Communist Idealism straight away, and send our military to help them"
The Admiral saluted then began to leave, turning around he said "Do you smell that sir it smells like, smells like..."
"Teen Spirit?" The COBAIN asked.

Scum. Attack Communist Ideals for this foolish reason, and we will bury you.

General Nilats walked down Triomphe street, the main street of Jovita. The city was most empty, the government had gone, the military had gone, and he did not have to pay for a single bomb to be dropped.
With the naval blockade he was launching, and the farmlands of Communist Idealism in the Communist Likon controlled North of the nation, he could afford to sit back and wait for the enemy to starve.
He had received news of possible foreign aid for Communist Idealism, yet he was not concerned, who would help such a doomed nation? Their pitiful army was arrayed to the south and were reported to be digging trenches, to keep his forces contained.
This did not concern him, the oil fields were to the East, and once they were captured by the Revolutionary Guards currently moving towards them, he could afford to wait.
His first victory, as the Conductor of Communist Likon was at hand. Soon the two nations would be joined as one, as they were, as they are ment to be!

In a rare display of emotion, President Kaimoni Sutton of the sovreign United States of Credonia strongly voiced his opposition to the sudden attacks upon Sovreign Communist Idealism. He gave the following statement to the public:

"The sudden and atrocious attack upon the nation of Communist Idealism is sickening and frowned upon by both myself, and the citizens of Credonia. These attacks were not justified are in violation of international law. Because of this, the US of C will quickly respond to these attacks. To the leaders of the government of Communist Likon, it would be in the best interest of your government to back out of the territory that you have seized and occupied, owned by the sovreign government of Communist Idealism or serious repurcussions will result. The USC is prepared to commit forces if needs be to restore stability to that region."

Following his statement, President Sutton ordered all military forces to DEFCON 3 and all nuclear forces to DEFCON 4 in response to the hostile invasion.

Breathing heavily and with a flushed face, the messenger entered the Conclave Room. "Urgent news for the Psychopomp", he yelled, and after realizing he had made a serious protocol breach, amended his sentence with the quickly spoken words: "I am sorry, sirs, very sorry for this interruption, sorry."

The attention of the gathered Conclave turned towards the young messenger, who now stood frozen to the spot, embarassed and afraid of what would happen next. One of the Cardinals near him stood up from his chair and said: "Excuse me for interrupting the order of business here, but it appears that our messenger brings important news, since his hurrying here seems to have made him forget his manners completely." "So it seems", said the Psychopomp, now staring pointedly towards the messenger, who suddenly wished he'd be anywhere but here. "Tell me, young man, what is this urgent news you speak of."

The messenger stuttered: "W-ww-war, oh Most Holy One. The Communist Likon have invaded the Communist Idealism. Tank battallions are on the move and the Likon air force has made the first bombing runs already. We have asked both parties to confirm this, and a representative of the Communist Idealism already has. Likon has not answered our messages yet. The foreign minister asks for the Conclave's opinion of the situation."

Silence fell into the Conclave. The Cardinals seemed lost in their thoughts, and some of them were busily making notes of the situation. Then the strong, commanding voice of an elderly Cardinal broke the silence. "News of war is always disturbing", he said, "but must we act in any way? After all, both nations are communist, and from what I know, also atheistic. I motion that we take no stand, for or against anyone. Let the pagans fight among themselves. Let that show the world what man does when God does not guide him." Suddenly it was as if the room would have exploded, so swiftly was the silence broken by many voices. Retorts and questions to the Cardinal were drowned by eachother and the cacophony of the room prevented anyone from hearing another clearly. Then the voice of the Psychopomp cut into the herd of voices. "SILENCE! Cardinal Wotan has spoken wisely. Our nation should not take a stance when heathens or godless communists go to eachothers throats. We shall follow the issue, and perhaps step in should the conflict threaten to become wider than just regional, but otherwise we shall remain silent. I have spoken." "So it is", the Cardinals intoned in unison, "so it shall be done."

Imperial troops are being deployed to Communist Ideals, on a mission to defend their territory from the evil attackers.

We have sent:

500,000 Ground forces
200 TIE Fighters
150 TIE Bombers
120 AT-AT Attack walkers
150 AT-ST scout walkers

We advise you leave the area at once. there is no need for you to begin this mindless war for territory.

As he sits in his executive office pondering hard over what his next course of action should be, President Sutton is startled as his hotline rings. The Secretary of Defense is on the line.
"Sir, i've just recieved word that The Imperial Navy has sent troops to Communist Idealism to combat the occupying force that is there. What do you suggest we do?"

Sutton replies "For now we do nothing. We are going to wait and see how Communist Likon reacts to what has happened. If they so much as kill a soldier from Communist Idealism or The Imperial Navy, we will intervene by sending in our troops and if necessary, engaging in a full nuclear retalitory attack. Until then upgrade all military forces to DEFCON 2, maintain all nuclear forces at DEFCON 4, i dont want to have an escalation of the situation here. We are treading on thin ice, anything could happen, and since ive contacted nations within the region, it is almost certain that something will happen. In the mean time, keep me updated on events."

"yes sir" the Defense secretary replies and hangs up the phone.

Thinking outloud, President sutton says with a sigh "god help us" as he stands up and looks out of his window.

TROSURS will assist the imperial navy as soon as i get home from school, which I am at now logging on so I'll help later.

-Channcelor Ben Dover

Recent mobilization in the territory of Dark Terror developed into a worthless Sitzkrieg between us and GeForce 4. Therefore I will be willing to redeploy the following military to help Communist Likon in exchange for some of the territory he occupies.

Keep in mind that we are in full mobilization and this is not godmoding.

____________________________________________

5 million infantry
7,000 Pz. VIs (133mm L/72)
3,500 Pz.IV's (122mm L/70)
3,500 Jagdpanthers (130mm L/90)
3,500 Stug Ausf. B 200mm AA.
20,000 SP Elefants (400mm)
120,000 350mm Howitzers (no its not godmodding)
70,000 Panzerwerfers (check at the OOC)

2,000 SS-101's (Dive Bombers)
1,500 SS-102's (Fighters)
500 TU-160's

About 200,000 Pegaso Heavy Trucks, 150,000 Pegaso Medium Trucks and 400,000 Pegaso Light Trucks will be landed as well with the main source to supply and carry armies on the move.

30 million gallons of petrol and 200 million tons of food as well as vast amounts of bridging material, entrenching tools, extra weaponry and rubber will be sent monthly/annually.

It is expected to cost us some 1.3 trillion to 2.7 trillion a year for this mobilization.

_______________________________________________________

Thus it will be sent in two waves total, each with 1/2 of the force (obviously). The waves will be protected by the following:

5 HNS Marx class Dreadnought
20 Gato Class Submarines
2 HNS Amon Amarth (Mount Doom) class Aircraft Carrier
1 HNS Carpathia class Aircraft Carrier
7 of the HNS David Oglive class Battlecruisers
20 Ticonderoga class Cruisers
5 Manta Class fast attack mini sub
15 Arleigh Burke Class Destroyers
7 Oilers

OOC: The ships will drop one wave off at the ports, then go back with the empty cargo ships and then escort the next batch. My navy isn't large enought to carry so much material and men in one wave.

IC: This will take some three months total and will be ready to protect and for offensive operations.

The government has announced the rapid mobilization of 500,000 Infantry to be under the command of the Macabees. With this, 500 F-18's and 500 TU-160's will be sent.

Our small navy will be sending over 10 million gallons of petrol and 30 million tons of food. (following the Macabees example)

We require no territory.

In an emrgency session with Congress, President Sutton delivered this address:

"Ladies and gentlemen of Congress. Today we are faced with the gravest of problems. The problem of a pending war that is just over the horizon. The events we have seen unfold within the past 24-48 hours is horrific and shocking, and i am very sure that you are with me when i say that what is going on is a breach of international law and should not go unpunished. It seems as if we are on a one way path to war with multiple countries, a war that we will not be able to fight alone, however, we must have the resolve to go it alone should we have to because it is our duty to this world. We are upholding the principles of democracy, ensuring domestic and foreign peace and tranquility, and we must and WILL continue to do so until the very day that we die." Sutton stops, looks at the body of coungress and continues.

"I come before this body of congress today to ask for a declaration of war on any country that sends thier troops to the island nation of Communist Idealism. We will protect and aid this country from all foreign invaders, we will gather a coalition of nations to join our cause and we will defeat the enemy. To the government of Communist Likon, you have exactly three hours from the time of this post to lay down your arms and surrender or pull out of Communist Idealism or the United States of Credonia will be inclined to declare war against you and attack your very country. To all nations that provide aid to Communist Likon, the United States of Credonia will declare war on your nation as well, and you will wish you had never gotten involved. To all other nations, we ask for your support and aid to form a coalition of nations to repel these forces from the occupied territories in the country of Communist Idealism. It is the moral and democratic thing to do, regardless of what type of government the country we are helping has. This is what Capitalism and democracy is all about, and the United States of Credonia will stand poised and ready to defend the things that make our form of government great. The question is, will you too stand by these ideals and principles by supporting us and giving aid to the country of Communist idealism and its poor citizens who are fleaing the country so that they will not be killed by the oppressors?" He then steps away from the podium and walks out of the room.

The government of the Macabean Nation is stoppind deployment of the troops here and keepin them in Dark Terror territory... there are more pressing matters.

The Grossduetschland government has allowed her troops to stay in CL's territory and they are under CL's command.

The deadline has come and gone. The world statnds still as it waits for an action to be taken by either side. Leaks from the Presidential Palace indicate that the President has set a firm course of action and will be addressing the international community tomorrow morning. Reports are also surfacing that forces are being mobilized at this time, but the exact purpose is not yet known and will be revealed during the presidential address.

If this build up of enemy military continues, we shall be forced into a full mobolisation ourselves.

We have a 3 Million man army, but we will not deploy it all. such an act would bankrupt our nation. (Which is why, Maccabees, you ARE godmodding. reduce your military size DRASTICLY.)

We shall send a further 500,000 troops and 100 of each fighter to Communist Ideals.

"Sir it is time to respond to the internationals" General Mistak said to Nilats. "If we delay than who knows how the situation could escualte?"
"Are the troops from our colonies on their way?" Nilats asked
"Yes sir, they should arrive over the next few weeks."
Nilats nodded and walked to the map pinned onto the wall upon the parliment buildings wall. The large room was filled with Generals who were co ordinating the combined front. In response to the international support for Communist Idealism Nilats had ordered an immediate attack upon Communist Idealisms oil firelds with the elite Revolutionary Guards unit.
"Begin the defensive action" Nilats ordered. Half of the room was relieved, the other disappointed. The defensive action was to consolidate the territory that they had already taken back. With more and more troops, tanks, aeroplanes, ships flowing over the border everyday, Nilats could afford to wait.
Despite the fact that mass protests had been conducted in the capital he would take back Communist Idealism. His homeland and his adopted land would be ONE!

"They're calling in men from their colonies sir."

"Well, we can do the same. Recruit men from our Tydus and Gaton prime colonies. Hyperspace them ove the nation and then send them down in dropships."

"Aye sir."

Standing over the microphone President Hestrol enthusiastically shouted at the crowd, gathered in Noumea, the second largest city in Communist Idealism and the new capital. Temprarily.
"We must not surrender, for them to invade us shows that any bonds of brotherhood we once shareed have been broken. With our international friends help, I shall lead thee through this crisis!"
As the words left his mouth, a gunshot went off and a bullet hole apperaed in Hestrol's chest. The screaming crowd dispersed in confusion, making it impossible to get the President to a hospital in time, he was soon dead.
As the military leaders squabbled over who was in command, first word came from the frontlines, Communist Likon had begun bobing the frontlines and their supply routes. Without immeediate help they would be trapped, and destroyed.

Floyd the Barber was jubilant at his success in tyhe assassination of the Communist Idedalism leader. As he got back to his apartment he burned the slip of paper with his orders on it.
".....the leader of Communist Likon" it said.
Suddenly Floyd re read the orders.
"Woops."

The Emperor addressed the troops.

"We are sending you in to assist the Imperial Navy, our allies and comrades in arms. Communist Likon must not be allowed into Communist Idealism. is that clear?"

"SIR YES SIR!"

There was a massive heave on the mothership as 12,000 men were dispatched to the planets surface by dropship. Each was armed with a Taiidan type 7 Ion rifle.

"Dispatch the bombers, and send the fleet over Communist Likon. if any of their actions violate human rights, level their nation."

+++Transmission to Communist Likon+++

This is the Taiidan Imperium. we advise you withdraw from this battle and settle in your own lands. if you do not, we will assist The Imperial Navy and Communist Ideals in crushing you and your nation.

+++Transmission ends+++

Have i just gone to help a friend or sign the death warrant on my men? Thought the Emperor.

TTI! good to see you my friend. deploy your troops with ours. we shall defend Communist Ideals no matter what.

Good to see you TIN. we shall stand with you to the end.

President Sutton stands before congress once again and delivers the folowing address:

"Ladies and gentlemen of congress, and Leaders of foreign nations, The time has come for a response from Credonia. In witness to the events that have taken place, events that have rocked the international community, I must respond. With numbers growing in our coalition of nations it is now time to excersize our powers and to protect the nation of Communist Idealism. They have been wrongfully attacked, an attack that the aggressor nation justifies as the only way to reunite the people into one. We can not sit back and watch the terror go on any longer. We must act, and the time to act is now. Our forces have fully mobilized and are standing by to recieve the order to move to Communist Idealism to protect them from the agressor, they are also ready to attack Communist Idealism on their homeland. As i promised, i will support and protect the government of COmmunist Idealism from all nations against them, therefore, I Kaimoni .A. Sutton, President of the United States of Credonia hereby declare a state of war with the nation of Communist Idealism. They have ignored our warnings to pull out from the peaceful nation, and now it is time to liberate them. We will boldly and valiantly fight, and we shall win. We will continue to build up the number of nations in our coalition. We will overwhelm the enemy until they can no longer fight. We will destroy them. Its time to move into action!! Get to work gentlemen!!!!" He then storms out of the room.

Orders from the president were transmitted to the Secretar of Defense to upgrade to DEFCON 1 and send the first wave of troops to Communist Idealism. The 223rd Marine Infantry Division is the first to be sent in.

OOC: You don't have enough money to have that many Crusader units... :?

IC: As the Five Civilized Nations have frowned upon the actions of Communist Likon since the death of the LEADER, we condone Communist Likon's actions. The 7th and 11th Fleet are being deployed to surround the island. Any further aggression will be considered an act of war...

Bring it on!!!

--Duke of Tilstin, Joshua Keynes

OOC: you cant exactly prove that we do have enough money ;-) (but i assure you, we do)

IC: President sends the leaders of Communist Likon a message, broadcast o ntv and on the radio:

"This is your final warning. Pull your forces out of the occupied territory or risk a battle being fought on your territory. We will not hesitate to attack and neither will the nations of the coalition backing us. Pull out, surrender or face destruction!"

OOC: you cant exactly prove that we do have enough money ;-) (but i assure you, we do)

OOC: It doesn't matter, the US doesn't have that many artillery units... And also you're a freaking two day old nation!!!

OOC: as i stated before, i assure you we do, end of dissussion ;-) and im well aware of how many units the US military have, i have family and friends that are in the military some in high places, some just starting out. ;-)

OOC: You're kinda godmodding with so many of those artillery pieces... But oh well...

IC: The 7th Fleet takes up position surrounding the Eastern Coast, while the 11th Fleet takes up position surrounding the Western Coast.

Ships Numbers for each Fleet
3x Trireme Class Fleet Carriers (Bought from Mushroomius)
2x Storm Class Fleet Carriers
2x Executor Class Battleships
9x Heaven's Will Aegis Cruisers
3x Pierre Class Assault Frigates
7x Midway Class Destroyers
6x Virginia IV Class SSNs

The submarine GSS Herald sat beneath the waves, crunching numbers and decoding the various transmissions, sending them back to the sub pens. Silent, like a hole in the water, it waited...

Nilats stared at his advisors. The steel in his eyes showed that the decision he made now must be obeyed.
"Send out emissarys to the foreign imperialist nations, tell them that i will hold a meeting to explain our position in one days time, here! Until that time we shall not launch any further attacks on Communist Idealism, however as a percaution we shall not stand down from our positions. I am willing to negotiate, however if a single foreign plane flys over our territory not only shall we shoot it down, but interpret it as an act of war. The same for any shots fired at our troops or our Navy."
Nilats walked to the window and stared out at the magnificent city he now occupied. With his nations old allies facing him down the barrel of a gun he knew that he must do something to salvage something from the impossible situation he was in.

The Lipvinian forces marched into the camps set up along the front lines with the Imperialistic nations. 500,000 infantry troops, plus 790 hevy tanks, 530 light tanks, 1500 artillery units, and 150 MiG's which were based in the airfields both on occupieed territory and the Motherland.
They will fight and die for the Nation.

The men filed into the frontlines. The troops had begun arriving but would not be finished for a few more days.
The Justarianist government, eager to prove its loyalty after the Rebellion that recently took place have sent the elite troops and as many as possible to aid the Red Army. Justarianism sends the following.

Communist Likon, you are becomming Imperialist yourself... by invading others with the intention of expanding your empire. And Imperialism is capitalism in it's most powerful form.

We are Democratic, and we request you back down from this conflict, and accept a treaty with Communist Ideals. The forces against you are mounting...

http://www.wizards.com/starwars/images/stormtroopers.jpg

Stormtroopers gather in Communist Ideals, ready for battle.

"Welcome viewers, I am Sandra Smulley and this is CINN, the Communist Idealism News Network. The invading forces have stopped their advances and the bombardment of our trroops on the frontline; many believe this is due to the international pressure placed on them by the foreign forces assissting us in our time of need.
Undoubtedly the meeting the Leader of Communist Likon, Nilats called is due to international pressure. However it is not only he who is concerned. Many citizens, and government members are concerned about the ulterior motives of the Capitalist nations who have their forces within our borders. Many are scared that if Likon is repulsed, these forces will not leave.
In the South of the Nation today there have been many protests by the populace who wish for us to join with Communist Likon, and oncee again become the nation we were 8 years ago, ruled under the Communist system.
The feelings of unrest and protest are spreading throughout the contry sided. We all know what the Government wants, but what do the people need?
I am Sandra Smulley, and this is CINN."

The Emperor made a speech earlier today in Parliament:

"We assure Communist Idealism that as soon as the conflict is over, our forces will be withdrawn, and should we be forced to take control of Communist Likon, we shall leave that nation to Communist Ideals as well."

This came after Idealism citizens became afraid of Capitalist forces standing up for them.

Walking behind the Imperial Navy troops, Davey Munston was nervous. He knew he was going to die for the Communist cause, but he was proud. He could not allow the Capitalists take over his nation. Slowly he walked into a group of occupied tents, surrounded by troops who were looking at him questionably.
Reaching under his large coat he dedtonated the bomb he was wearing.

A group of interceptors completed a patrol around Communist Ideals.

"Nothing today-they have held theor positions for this meeting."

"I doubt anything will coe of it. those Commie/Imperials are gonna invade wether we're here or not-they just want us to withdraw."

"'aint gonna happen. Returning to base."

More dropships arrived, giving troops to the already mounting ground-force.

"We now have all 20,000 men on the ground. we shall send down the Ion Tanks shortly."

The armed republic of rebel grots has begun troop transportation to assist communist Likon in the now imminent conflict. Communist likon, 500 000 new conscripts are under your general staffs control. Unfortunatly, due to our glorious nations economic situation, we leave responsibility for arming the troops to you.

your not permitted to hand control of your troops to another nation. people call it godmodding and ignore you. i suggest you reduce the army size to somthing YOU can handle, then you take part.

The US of Credonia has pledged to find the factions responsible for the attack upon the Imperialist Navy and bring them to justive for this planned act of terrorism.

"The situation is getting rough and things just got worse, send in reinforcements" says President Sutton to his Secretary of Defense. Within hours the 1st Army Infantry Division consisting of 50,000 men and 3,000 MP's are on their way to Communist Idealism to fight should another attack occur. With them they bring their 50 newly acquired J1 Quacker MBT tanks, and 25 Anthrax GAMMA units in preparation for a ground assult should one be organized and executed.

OOC: this had better have been the work of another faction, or i'll have to withdraw my troops...

Thanks Celeborne. (I didn't know you looked in this forum...)

At this time we can assist with the cost of your enterpise and will put the 3rd , and 7th logistical groups at your command. Sorry we could not offer more, but we are watching several fronts at the moment.

50 Billion dollars has been transfered to IN.

OOC: This deployment is IC, our crazy dictator has deployed HALF of his entire armed forces (we have cumpusory military service for men and women age 20-25) (crazy, but dont tell him that, I might be shot.)

IC: The armed republic of rebel grots has bowed under to international pressure as stated in president Waaghma's speech a few minutes ago:
"We will not give control uver da troops to da comunist Likon! We will take control back! I am your ledar! Praise me! We give gunz an' ammo to our troops! WAAAGH!!"

"with this glorious speech our great leader told the nation that we are assuming control of our own troops, and stripping our economy bare in order to supply them with weapons, transportation, fuel and food. If my sources are correct, the 500 000 conscripts are to be armed with AK-47's and some hand-held SAMs."

OOC: This deployment is IC, our crazy dictator has deployed HALF of his entire armed forces (we have cumpusory military service for men and women age 20-25) (crazy, but dont tell him that, I might be shot.)

OOC:
That's ludicrous, your economy will shatter that way. You won't be able to supply logistics (ammunition and supplies) nor will you be able to buy a sufficient navy/airforce to move them. Furthermore, wouldn't such a large conscription cause rebellion? I speak for all other self-respecting nations when I say this, change it now or be ignored.

The armed republic of rebel grots is in political turmoil. Rumors have leaked out that the president is in fact insane, and that his counsellors are trying desperatly to forge an alliance with communist Likon to ensure their political survival. The president has not been seen since his speech this morning, and the police have suddenly dissapeared from the streets. The army, wich was preparing for mobilisation, is apparently not doing anything. The people are confused, no-one knows what is going on.

"WHAT!" Vice-president Gazkhull shouted in anger, and the rest of the council flinched. "What do you mean? How can the military statistics be wrong?" He turned his wrath on the defence minister "Have you supplied false information? You ensured us that we had nearly a million men and women fully supplied and ready to move out!" The defence minister, Razal, cringed. "Our information sources were inadequate, vice-president, we were sure that.." "SILENCE!" Bawled Gazkhull. "Give me realistic numbers!" "Uhm, well....We have a fully working navy consisting of 3 diesel run frigates and 8 submarines. Ground forces are estimated to be around 20 000 men, we have no way of enforcing the compulsory service, and most citizens don;t even know it exists. Our air force consits of 5 F-16 fighter planes, and 12 badger bombers." " Is that all?" Gazkhull asked, his voice deathly quiet. Defence had started to sweat visibly now. "GUARDS!" Gazkhull roared. "Arrest this man for high treason, bertayal of the father country! You have pulled your last gamble my friend." Defence had fainted, and the room was completely still as he was dragged away.
The silence was suddenly broken by a courier who came running in and pronounced: "Vice-president, the president has been involved in a tragic accident involving a speeding escelator, he is being rushed to hospital as we speak!" Gazkhull hid his smile well. He turned to the minister of foreign affairs and said. "Order our troops to stand down. We will have no further part in this pointless conflict......."


OOC: Better?

Imperial troops are being deployed to Communist Ideals, on a mission to defend their territory from the evil attackers.

We have sent:

500,000 Ground forces
200 TIE Fighters
150 TIE Bombers
120 AT-AT Attack walkers
150 AT-ST scout walkers

We advise you leave the area at once. there is no need for you to begin this mindless war for territory.
OOC: Aren't TIEs highly unstable in the Earth's gravity forces?

Only in Star Wars, these just look like TIEs-they have our own technology.

General Nilats surveyed the build up on the Front. The trenches were dug deep and the artillery was primed and ready. The plan to reunite all Likon was going awry. He hadn't planned on the capitalists attempting to take over Idealism.
Know he knew that without heavy support he would be doomed. He could not fight the Imperialists alone, and his list of allies was thin. The plan to cut loose the colonies was set back at least ten years by this venture.
"What would Father have done?"He asked the silence, His father, the first LEADER of Communist Likon always knew what to do. Nilats drew upon his cigarette, the Progress Party in the nations capital of Danube was doing everything in its power to block him, and unless something happened quick, he knew he would lose his authority in his homeland. Nilats surveyed the land he was born in, the land he wanted to unite. Throwing down his cigarette a sudden anger arose in him. This was meant to be a bloodless affair, now it looked like being the bloodiest slaughter in Likons history.
"Let them come" He whispered and walked back to his car which drove him to the parliment building in Jovita. Soon he hoped, the foreign representatives would be arriving, and after that peace would ensue. Or else bloody war would engulf his land and his people. For their sake he hoped for luck, and providence.

"we have no intention to take over Communist Ideals, nor do we want bloodshed. We request negotiations to end this gathering of military."

-Press release

"Welcome viewers I am Sandra Smulley and this is CINN, today as the crisis within our nation increases the man leading the nation, President Gener, who was sworn in just yesterday, has apologised to the Imperial Navy for the terroist attack upon their troops, and offers his sympathy to their relatives.
He also swears to hunt down the group responsible and bring them to swift justice. He also states that he will attend the meeting of Leaders over the crisis to decide the fate of the nation.
In other news it is estimated that at least 6 million members of the population are protesting the foreign capitalist troops in Communist Idealism, and at least 85% of them are protesting against Communist Idealism not re-joining with Communist Likon. It is estimateed that 83% of the population is approving of the merge.
Since the initial Revolution in the Empire of Likon 8 years ago, and the large nation was split in twain, the mass of land going to the Communists whilst the oppressive monarchy controlled the small area that became Imperial Idealism.
After the Peoples Revolution of this year, very little has changeed with military leaders taking control of all that the monarchists once poesesseed. Despite the referendum of two months ago stating 64% of the population once again wanted to be joined with Likon, the Government refused and remained independent.
Now it seems that the government will pay with the blood of the people it refused to represent.
I am just receiving word now...our sources tell me that the suicide bomber came from a group called the Idealism Peoples Liberation Army (IPLA) and they are threaten more attacks against the foreign troops.
This reporter is afraid, that the violence has just begun. This is Snadra Smulley with CINN."

In the Presidents office.

"Sir the Commies are bashing each other!!"

"Excellent! Keep me informed, lets hope they wipe each other off the face of the earth!"

To deal with this problem-No citizens of CI are to come near our troops. to do so will mean they will be arrested and interrogated.

Until then, we shall stand our ground and defend your nation.

We have diverted the 1st Battlegroup to assist imperial navy in quelling this outrage


We have despatched

10 Hyperion Crusiers
1 Akira Class Warship FWS Achilles
loaded with 150 dropships loaded with 100,000 peacekeeper marines


Communist Linkon you have 24hrs to initate a complete withdrawl of your forces!

Four Hundred JadeOps and ObsidianOps Special Forces have been HALOed into Communist Likon... Their task, to kill General Nilats...

OOC: What happened to General Theodore?

The vice-president of the armed republic of rebel grots made a television appearance a few minutes ago. He gave the nation grave news, a coastal survey aircraft was shot down near the coast of communist idealism, with the loss of both pilots. Last recorded message was as follows: " I've got a TIE on my back! I can't shake him! I...."connection lost. The vice president said that this proved that the Imperial Navy were taking military action against our now neutral country, and condemmed the attack. He emphasised that the republic will NOT take military action and remain "neutral". The vice-president did not say WHY the aircraft was so close to communist idealism's coast, NOR if it was armed. The truth, it seems, is still hidden from the people. The ordinary person on the street however, still supports communist Liken and believe that the Capitallists are taking over communist idealism.

I'd never attack you, liar.

I have to go. if this conflict is still happening on monday, see you all then.

ALL OF YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With tensions in the area mounting, President Sutton made the decision to take charge of the situation and call a summit meeting with all involved parties. The issue of peace will be the main focus of this meeting. The parties who the USC insists attend are Communist Likon, Communist Idealism, and the Imperial Navy or the Taiidan Imperium. No further military actions will be taken at this time by the USC, however, troops will remain in the area on alert. The USC government also asks other nations NOT to attack Communist Likon unless you are attacked first. This will promote peace and hopefully will not make this situation any worse than it already is.

After speaking with leaders from a great many nations about joining the coalition to put an end to C.L.'s aggression, President Sutton ordered the release of this statement sent to the nation of TROSURS. Although this telegram message was directed to that nation, it pertains to every nation that has an opinion about this matter. He hopes this will bring more nations into the coalition to support the nation of Communist Idealism.

"For now lets put aside our political differences and think eye to eye here. What C.L. did was totally out of line, attacking a small island nation (C.I.). Its imperialist and wrong. Now i can see if C.I. did something to provoke the attack, then i wouldnt be getting involved, i would let the commies slash their own throats but thats not the case. Its a simple matter of human morals, and the way i see it is that C.L. performed an act that was against human morals as good people, or as a good nation. That is why we should intervene. What if this happened to everyone? We need to show the international community that acts such as these will not be permitted. We need to promote the values of peace and tranquility, not encourage violence and hostilities. That is why we must put an end to this, show the world that we simply will not tolerate it."

Aboard the GSS Herald...

"Do you have a firing solution?"

The sailor at the computer screen tapped a few keys on his keyboard and nodded. "Yes sir. Likon supply ship targeted. Torpedo has lock."

The submarine captain sighed. No word from Likon regarding a withdrawal. He had his orders. At least, he THOUGHT he had his orders...the message was scrambled to say the least...

"...of Shaftebury...no response...Liko...intercept targe...supply...
no passengers...mission ends."

God. Was he supposed to save passengers, or not pick them up? Or was it an order to avoid passenger ships all together? And where was the confirmation? Time had come and gone. Likon couldn't have destroyed Grotia with a nuclear strike...could it have?

He made his decision. "Tube 2...SHOOT!"

A whoosh of compressed air was heard throughout the Herald. The torpedo was running.

"SIR! Conn reports visual on target. It isn't a supply ship. IT IS A LIKON HOSPITAL SHIP!!!

The captain saw red. "TORPEDO ROOM. WHAT DID WE JUST SHOOT!"

The response came over the speaker. "A Mark VII sir...the Mark IXs are down for servicing...

Silence entered the bridge. Mark VII had no self destruct...

"Um...sir...15 seconds to impact..."

A military informant rushes into USC War Headquarters with an urgent message. He hands the message to the secretary of defence. As he reads the note. His smile drops as he rushes to the hotline to speak to the president.

President Sutton answrs the phone. "SIR we have just recieved reports from intellegence that GSS Herald has just fired upon a C.L. sea vessel. Recommend we put our units in C.I. on the offensive and prepare to attack should C.L. perform a counterstrike" the Sec. of Defense exclaims.

"JESUS CHRIST!!! THE HEC ARE THEY THINKING??!!" the President shouts in shock and disbelief. "THERE GOES ALL HOPES OF PEACE TALKS, NOW THEY ARE GOING TO WANT TO RETALIATE!!!!! IN THE NAME OF GOD, I CANT BELIEVE THIS AND I EXPRESSELY ASKED THEM NOT TO FIRE" he continues outraged.

All Credonian ground forces are now on the offensive and awaiting a repsonse from the Communist Likonian government. The world stands still in anticipation of what will happen next.

A offical polical delagate of The Federation of Continental democracy slowly enters the personal living hall of Madam Vilspar, head of War affairs in F.C.M he slowly walks over to her, she is quietly meditating on the current affairs in the world.

Political Delegate: Madam Vilspar what is your decsion on the war? the president of Credonia has asked us for assistance, what is your decision ?

Vilspar: (rather irritated at the question but still calm and relaxed, never actually looking at the delagate quietly uses her prayer beads she sighs) please send this in response to Mr. Suttons Call to war, it is from Sun Tzu
"The art of using troops is this:
When ten to the enemy's one, surround him;
When five times his strength, attack him;
If double his strength, divide him;
If equally matched you may engage him;
If weaker numerically, be capable of withdrawing;
And if in all respects unequal, be capable of eluding him,
for a small force is but booty for one more powerful"

Understand we will not go to war ourselves unless provoked by the enemy, our stance is one of defense and tactical surprise "

Delegate: I see Madam Vilspar, i will dispatch this notice at once

Vilspar: Mr. Delegate?

Deletage: Yes Madam Vilspar?

Vilspar: Prepare our defensive forces, and instruct our National security team to be on Alert, we must always remember Sun Tzu's teachings
"Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him"

Delegate: verry well, madam i will do these things for you at once

(Vilspar returns to her meditations, and slowly strikes her hand through mid air, like a sword)

"They WHAT?"

The admiral stared straight ahead, the sweat beading across his forehead. "The Herald seems to have fired upon a Likonian Hospital Ship."

Blut Und Krieg, the Minister for War, swore under his breath, then looked over at the Foriegn Minister, Chewy Goodness. The tall, thin figure of Goodness simply stared out at the rain pelting against the glass.

Krieg looked back at his officer. "Well? What happened?"

"We haven't heard back from the Herald since their report about the attack. We don't even know if it was successful."

"WHY THE HELL NOT?"

The admiral's sweat had begun to stain the collar of his uniform. "Communications have been...difficult...there appears to have been some sabotage performed on the wiring. We are working-"

"YOU BLOODY WELL BETTER BE, ADMIRAL, OR --"

The mild voice from the window cut in. "Krieg, calm down. Remember your heart condition. Admiral, report back to us in 30 minutes with an update."

"Sir!" The admiral saluted, spun on his heel and stalked out.

"Mr. Krieg...considering the situation that is brewing in Euroslavia...what on Earth were we doing off the coast of Likon?"

"We were gathering -"

"We have the MartletEyes for intelligence. We don't need to be offshore anymore. You know the state of our military. We are a-"

The speaker in the ante-room boomed. "THE LORD PROTECTOR WILL NOW SEE HIS MINISTERS OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS AND WAR. ADVANCE AND HONOUR YOUR PROTECTOR..."

Krieg turned quickly to his aide. "Send something...anything...off to the radio and TV." He turned back to the massive door that led to the Chamber of the Lord Protector. "Well, in for a penny..."

Goodman finished his thought. "...In for a pound."

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

"...Officials have told GNN that the captain of the Herald may have been an agent of the DSRO terrorist organization, or under the influence of Hlast, a potent brew made from industrial lubricant and wood alcohol. Again, for those of you just joining us, the Minister of Foreign Affairs has stated that the sinking of the Likonian Hospital Ship may have been an act of a renegade captain on a drunken spree, or the act of a terrorist sleeper agent in the Navy. The Protectorate regrets the loss of life and..."
CLICK!

President Sutton recieves a message from the government of the Continental Democracy on the teletype. He is happy that we have gained yet another nation in our coalition against Communist Likon. he then sends back an encoded message:

"friends, we are faced with a small problem which could possibly jeapordize the situation we are in. For now no major moves have been made and no further bloodshed has been done, up until this point. The nation of Grotia has either ordered an attack upon a Likon hospital sea vessel or the captain of the ship has just gone renegade. I have just informed Grotia to get control of their vessel or else we will destroy it if they dont. We dont need more problems being added to this already massive problem. We are not sure just how the C.L. government will respond but im pretty sure it wont be pretty. If i were them, i wouldnt let the sinking of one of my vessels go easily and i would retaliate, and i am very sure that is what they may do. Now, we would like you to seek out and destroy the GSS Herald if something is not done about that ship within the next 12 hours. The USC will be sending in naval units very soon, but for now, we will maintian a troop only presence on the island of Communist Idealism, we will hold fort there for a little while. thank you.

Signed,
Kaimoni .A. Sutton
President of the United States of Credonia"

to Mr. Sutton

Sun Tzu once said on the art of war
"Thus the highest form of generalship is to balk the enemy's plans; the next best is to prevent the junction of the enemy's forces; the next in order is to attack the enemy's army in the field; and the worst policy of all is to besiege walled cities."

please remember this,

I will give you the naval support you have requested

(Madam willspar tells the minister of navy to deploy
3 wolf class submarines
4 naval destroyers
2 Pt Boats)

Peace allways.

Madam Vilspar
_____________________________

Delagate: is there anything else you would like Madam Vilspar?

Vilspar: i whant you to deploy out Nillius Team, there mission is one of surrvielnce for now. be they ready for a assasination, i whant this finished NOW.

(madam vilspar signs a executive order, and stamps it with blood from her own finger)

Nilats face contorted with anger. The news of the Hospital ship SS Mercy being destroyed took him badly. Finally controlling his emotions enough to speak Nilats turned to his top commanders and spoke.
"It is clear gentlemen, that this coalition of nations opposing us care nothing of the people who's life they trtample on. First, they occupy a nation they have nothing to do with and depite the wishes of the people they declare a war they have no right to be fighting in. They deeploy troops into our nation with orders to assassainate me, then they torpedo a hospital ship carrying 2400 children from Communist Idealism to the better equipped hospitals in Communist Likon. Enough is enough. I give them 16 hours to begin withdrawls of their troops. If this is not done then gentlemen, we go to war!"
As Nilats turned away a tear was in his eye. His daughter was a nurse on that ship.

To General Nilats of Communist Likon,

"This is vice-president Gazkhull speaking. War is one thing, but terrorism is an entirely different matter, sophisticated nations cannot stand idly on the sidelines while renegade captains kill innocent children. Not only will this despicable act destroy what little hope we have of a peacefull solution, it also sends a clear message to the people of the world: No-one is safe.
In order to help prevent such attrocities from happening again, we offer to aid you in the hunt for this renegade submarine, 3 frigates with towed sonar-arrays and 4 multi-engine aircraft with sonubouys are being deployed as we speak, ready to help put an end to the reign of terror this renegade is creating. Communist Likon, we offer our condolances and stand ready to aid you in bringing this war criminal to justice, the hard way if necessary."

To Communist Likon,

It is the resolve of this coalition NOT to back down. I think i can speak for the rest of the other nations when i say that we will not allow one simple terrorist attack detur us from our main goal which is to restroe peace to the nation. We applaud your choice not to attack at this time, but in order to maintain the peace we MUST call a meeting to discuss terms of peace. The attack upon your people ws sudden, deliberate, and unnecessary, however, it was not the work of the coalition. It was the work of renegade factions. Obviously you can tell as the US of Credonia stands poised to attack the ship thta attacked you. Withdraw your ultimatum for war and lets talk peace. The blood of our people need not be shed over such petty matters.


Kaimoni .A. Sutton
President of the US of Credonia

" Welcome viewers, i am Sandra Smulley and this is CINN. On news received from intelligence agencys and from the Hotline between the leaders of our nation and Communist Likon to help end the conflict, the government has receiveed news that US of Credonia has nuclear weapons in Communist Idealism.
Therefore the government has decided that the US of Credonia is threatening world peace with threats of terror, and are expelling the US of Credonia from Communist Idealism if it does not remove the offensive weapons immediatley!
This new conflict between "Allies" seems dangerous to the extreme, and has many citizens worried. This is Sandra Smulley with CINN"

The government of the US of Credonia STRINGENTLY denies any existence of nucler weapons within the nation of Communist Idealism. President Sutton gave this short statement: "all nuclear forces remain in the USC and are only on DEFCON 4, we have not raised the level and we will not raise that level unless Communist Likon resorts to using these weapons. These weapons that we posess pose no threat to the C.I. and its citizens. They are only there as a deturrent and for the most part will not be used unless forced. We can not disclose what kind of weapon we have at this time but we assure you it is not nuclear."

he continues "we also assure you that if we move from your country, the next move will be into Communist Likon and that will destabilize the situation. We are here for the defense of C.I."

Nilats picked up the telephone and issued his orders to his commanders in the frontline. His troops were ready. With the admittal of some sort of weapon in Communist Idealism he knew the terror committed by Credonia would continue.
If they tried anything it would be war. Yet, if they did not withdraw in the next 12 hours it would be war anyway.
Nilats sat down heavily in his cushioned chair and picked up a book, he was unworried, what would be would be. Carefully he opened the old cracked bindings, it was a First Edition of Tolstoys "War and Peace"

The protestors yelled. Marching towards the offices of the provisional government they yelled, "Down with the Government" "Kill the Imperialists" and heard most of all was the simple "UNITE!!!"
Soon the offices were in sight, the mob was thousands strong and marching on the support of millions. Soon the offices were in sight, and the units of the National Guard in front of them.
The mob marched so they were lined up in front of the guard who had their rifles pointed at the mob. With a nod the Guard turned and began to fire upon the building. the mob ran inside and slaughtered anyone they could find.
As a symbol of solidarity, from the flag pole on the roof next to the flag of Communist Idealism they flew the flag of Communist Likon, and the shout of "UNITE" could be heard.
The people had chosen their side, the people would no longer be ignored.

Madam Vilspar makes the following statements,

As of October 17, 2003 we will be withdrawing troops from the region of Communist Likon, this is a war of deception and our nation is too new to commit itself to war

the colalition is not ment to attack the weak, however PLEASE ALL COALITION MEMBERS PLEASE REMEMBER THIS QUOTE!!

"The spot where we intend to fight must not be made known; for then the enemy will have to prepare against a possible attack at several different points; and his forces being thus distributed in many directions, the numbers we shall have to face at any given point will be proportionately few. "

good day,

Madam Vilspar

Secretary of War

-------------------------------------------------
(madam vilspar returns to her prayer beads)

The threat was evident, and the people of C.I. made their decision. The US of C will begin pulling ourt of C.I. tomorro.w. President SUtton stated "if thats what the people want then thats what they will get"

The mob had no sense of purpose or direction. They ran around town, taking out their frustrations upon the upperclass in their classless society.
They knew how Communist Likon was run, they had been there for visits. It was time fo society to be run right, but they would start here. Burning cars and buildings with help of the National Guard. The Riot threatened the surviving government with diaster.

today i am sending in a peace keeping mission into communist Likon, they under my authority, will stay there untill peace is solved in this nation, it is obvious to me that the country needs extra help, i am sending the following peace keeping troops, Communist Likon should send me a telegram when he recieves such troops and when they are no longer needed, return them to our sovierng land

100,000 peace core voulenteers
100,000 Marines
100 Generals in control of all the troops

with any luck these troops should be helpfull

(Vilspar returns to her prayer beads, and slowly signs the executive order)

Official Statement from the Conductor of Communist Likon General Nilats

Dear Friend Madam Vilspar,

If you wish to send peace keeping forces into Communist Idealism i support you and wish you luck. However if you intention is to send troops into Communist Likon i am afraid i must interpret that as an act of war and deestroy the trroops you send into my nation.
No foreign, uninvited troops, or civilians are allowed into Communist Likon in times of war.

With Kind Regards
General Nilats

In the interest of Peace and Harmony, the CIGP shalt send 12,000 troops into Noumea to restore the peace. These troops are impartial in the war but wish to quell the mob which is threatening lives and property.
After the situation is under control the troops hall leave.

General Nilats,

I am sending in our vollenteer service men and women, although they are military terms, there people are not traditional troops, they are peacefull vollenteers, i wish for you to exend you kindness to my troops, they will serve you well.

if you still hesitate, i will indeed hold them a the border, untill the treat of outside war passes, but i can have them serve as any force you feel fit, they are yours.

Madam Vilspar,

Secretary of War

Council of 12

The Five Civilized Nations is withdrawing its surface fleets, but will retain a heavy submarine presence in the region. In addition, Five Civilized Nations' troops are moving into Communist Likon's controlled territory in Justiarianium (excuse the spelling mistake).

On request of C.I., we will not pull troops out of its terriroty. Instead, the 3,000 MP's sent in will control riots. Any person participating in a riot in C.I. will be arrested and detained and put into custody of C.I.'s military forces after questioning.

(OOC From what I have seen, this is how wars should be fought. Well done, keep it up, you are an example.)

Aboard the GSS Herald...

"Sir?"

The Captain stared off into space, a wreath of cigarette smoke wrapped around his head.

"Um...sir...we have been at the bottom for 18 hours now. We can hear the sonobuoys and screws of a dozen ships up there. We haven't been in contact with Shaftebury Pens since before you fired...what are we going to do?"

The captain continued to stare at nothing. "Did you know, Gabriel, that the party elite don't have to smoke these dreadful Independence cigarettes? They get the finest tobacco available."

The executive officer looked uneasily at him. "Uh, yes sir. Perhaps if you allowed the ship's surgeon to look at you. Maybe a little rest..."

A chuckle. "No, Gabriel...I'm not mad. Indeed, I assure you, I'm quite clear headed. No...I just don't give a damn anymore..." He laughed and pointed to a small screen by his bunk. It simply read:

"Time to Self Destruct: 1 minute, 15 seconds."

"YOU MAD BASTARD!"

"Interesting, no...considering we are sitting on Likon's LARGEST UNDERWATER NATURAL GAS AND OIL FIELD...a nuclear blast will wipe out every -

His words were cut off by the report of the XO's pistol...

"BRIDGE - THIS IS COMMANDER GABRIEL," he yelled into the hand mic. "PLOT A COURSE...220 degrees, maximum speed...yes I know...go 110% on the reactor...JUST DO IT!!!"

The Herald lifted off the bottom and slowly headed away from Likon's shores...but it was a MASSIVE petroleum field...go up and pollute the atmosphere...stay on the bottom and vapourize the fuel...

Near the Grotian vessel, a silent hunter is prowling the seas.

Captain, we have an unknown submerged contact that has just accelerated to +25 knots... Bearing 0320.

What!?! The Captain considered his options...

Get as far away as possible...

Why, Captain?

This area is not a good place for naval combat, any misfire will cause the whole place to go up... So speed up to 30 knots bearing 0945...

Aye, sir.

The crab was curious. What an unusual shell! Mind you, it WAS tasty. And so MUCH food! It continued to nibble away, tearing little bits of flesh away from the bone, oblivious to the world around it.

This bone was MUCH better than that other shell...it tasted funny.The crab extended an eye stalk at the other shell. It was twisted, blackened, but also shiny and HARD! Other, bigger crabs had tried it and failed. Oh well, there were plenty of softer shells to break into for everyone. After all, how often did food fall to the ocean floor in such abundance?

A millisecond later, the crab, the skull it was ignorantly feasting on, as well as the other victims and wreckage of the SS Mercy were vaporized in a wall of light and heat...

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

Report - MartletEye4 to Grotian Military Station E3 -

Underwater nuclear detonation detected off coast of Likon...large secondary explosions from petro-chemical fuel stocks...mushroom cloud of water vapour and burning petroleum has reached sea level, enter middle atmosphere...large amounts of radiation...sea covered in burning oil...wind pattern indications fallout headed for Likon and Idealism southern coasts...radiation type indicates use of dirty nuclear fuel, similar to type used in experimental nuclear reactors in Shield Class submarines (GSS Shark, GSS Herald, GSS Claymore, GSS Fang)...leaving coverage area...next orbit in 45 minutes 24 seconds...END IT...

Shocked and stunned at the news reports coming in about the undersea detonation of a nuclear weapon off the coast of Communist Likon, president sutton springs into action and wires orders over to War headquarters:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
URGENT MESSAGE

From: President Kaimoni Sutton
To: Secretary Of Defense Alan Ferguson
Classification Level: LOW

Order our units to prepare for the incoming radiation, order the MP's to prepare to help the sick and wounded citizens of C.I. Ensure ALL troops donn their radiation suits. I think its time for for us to get tough, enough of this sitting around and waiting. The 12 hour deadline is up anyway. Await further orders, they are coming shortly.

END OF MESSAGE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Office of the Foriegn Minister...

A clatter of a whisky tumbler landing on the table...the sound of a LARGE one being poured...

"Oh crap..."

The nearby Virginia IV Class SSN, the Avenger was hit by the shockwave, overloading the reactors causing the submarine to plunge into one of the deepest trenches in the world. The submarine was slowly crushed as it plunged into the deep.

Delagate: Madam Vilspar, the entire fleet is lost. i am sorry

Vilspar: this situation will not stand, prepare the millenium device....

(delagate bows and hurries off)

Nilats plane hit the airfield in a hurry, he donned a radiation suit and was quickly in the pfficial car heading towards the town of Grimsmad, a small town inhabiteed by 10,000 people on the South Coast of Communist Likon.
Upon arrival he worked for 12 straight hours, pulling victims out of rubble and rushing them away to be de contaminated.
The town was levelled and the death toll was high, many being children. Rushing to the nearest town he quickly ordered an IDF operation to find those responsible for the nuclear blast, and ordered his deputy to make a radio statement to the international community demanding whoever responsible to come forward.
Within 4 hours he was once again in occupieed Jovita, his troops were readied, if no one owned up soon it would be war.

The people lit their candles. In a symbol of unity with their bretheren in Communist likon they stood, a mob of hundreds, thousands, hundreds of thousands, A virtual fairybread mob. They stood in silence.
Then calmly they picked up the AK-47s they had plundered from National Guard bases. The same reaction was occuring all over Communist Idealism, the people marched on their local governments. They would rise and destroy the corrupt, and become a nation, united under prosperity and equality.
Millions marched.

LATE BREAKING NEWS

President Sutton committed 50,000 troops backed by 200 crusader artillary units from the Marine infantry division currently on the ground to take back the oil fields comandeered by C.L. forces. Troops entered into the area gunds blazing with artilliary being shot over them as they attacked the enemy. President Sutton gave yet another address following the engagement of the troops:

"Nations of the world, today i have committed Credonian troops to engage war on Communist Likon. They have for days ignored our warnings to withdraw from the area. We have given them MORE than 12 hours to pull back since my ultimatum was given, yet they remain in the area and continue to attack. Now it is our time to attack as promised. We cannot and will not allow this nation to take over C.I. Communist Likon, the time has come for us to show no mercy, your forces will be destroyed. We urge other nations to join in the attack to take back the land conquered by C.L. Its now time for C.L. to pay. Let the war begin"

Credonian MP's intercepted the mob of marching citizens in Communist Idealism in an attempt to hold them back and protect the government buildings. Tensions flared between the crowd and the MP's but no shots were fired yet, soon MP's were arresting and detaining many of the citizens as they were rushed off in buses to detaining camps for questioning

As the Credonian troops walkedd into the oilfields they found it empty. Slowly the marched deeper and deeper within finding no signs of resistance. Laughing, a member of the Revolutionary Guard many miles away pulled the switch to detonate the bomb to set the oilfield blazing.

The Credonian troops began to pull the crowd apart. From behind them they heard a shout, and saw another mob hundreds of thousands strong running at them firing their rifles. Their was no hope of ecape.

The CIGP does not endorse Communist Nations, however we believe that this bloodshed has gone for to long.
We have sent 100,000 Ground troops into the citys of Communist Idealism to restore the peace in neutral way. These troops shall not take political sides but merely restore order.
We also offer a free base for negotiations, we beg that all nations cease the fighting. IMMEDIATLEY!!!

The Vampire Coven shall send 12,000 thousand troops to support CIGP in their peacekeeping task. We shall remain neutral and also beg that the fighting ceases. Were awfully hungry though, can we feed off your dead?

Credonian troops began firing on the crowd in self defense, throwing tear gas every which way. Troops from the 1st Army Infantry division arrived on the scene and opened fire on the crowd detaining people here and there as the MP's began to haul off the wounded or dead.

meanwhile back in the oil fields troops wee astonished and began to pull back as the oil fields blew. 5,000 of the 50,000 perished in the explision. As the troops drew back, the order was given to rendezvous with troops from the Marine infantry division and from there they would press on to the capital of Communist Idealism. Te exact rendezvous point ad where the troops are at this time is classified.

Outraged at Credonia's actions of killing civilians Nilats decided to make his move. His planes bombed the credonian lines and the shelling from his artillery ran non stop.
His infantry and tanks began their advances and snuck up upon the front in a three pronged attack, beginning to shoot at the enemy.
Meanwhile 50,000 Revolutionary guards parachutedd into the remaining Communist Idedalism cities of Noumea, Centerville, and Glycerine. With mobs supporting their nation little or no resistance is expecteed, and a Likon victory seems imminent.
More parachuters are being prepared to be droppedd into the citys as reifnorcement.

The mob rejoiced as their liberators apperared like angels in the sky.

the remaining 250,000 troops from the Marine infantry division were deployed to the remaining cities to thwart the C.L.'s attack. Sustaining very few casualties, the enemy was out numbered 5 to 1, it seems as if the enemy miscalculated or just plain forgotten how many troops Credonia deployed during the opening days of the operation.

***EMERGENCY Communication to all Allies Against Communist Likon***

From preliminary analysis of the underwater nuclear explosion, scientists of the Five Civilized Nations have concluded that it was the result of a meltdown of a nuclear reactor. The meltdown caused the reactor to overload and detonated. The Five Civilized Nations' scientific research submarine, the Constantin have evidence of a Grotian submarine at the epicenter of the blast. We believe that the Grotian submarine was involved in this explosion.

The Five Civilized Nations's submarine, the Avenger which was three kilometers from the epicenter was lost to the shockwaves. Because of this loss of life, we demand a full investigation on Grotian nuclear warships.

--Vice Defense Minister, Armad Delaz

200,000 5CN Marines began landing to support the Credonians. As the Communist Likon transport planes flew overhead, they were attacked by F-35C Joint Strike Fighters and F-22L Avenging Raptors. 120 Mi-39B Alligator Attack Helicopters have been deployed to support the 5CN Marines and the Credonian ground forces...

a small boat enters harbor at Communist Idealism,

5 heavly armed gaurds are visible with fully automatic weapons, they seem to be protecting a package, a rather larg package

:: back at FCD headquaters::

soon, soon it shall come

(Velspar returns to prayer beads)

OOC: To Continental Democracy... It is unlikely that you have a superweapon that will give you automatic victory, because you are a two day old nation!!! If you do have one, then you are godmodding... So be warned!!!

IC: The Marines refrain from firing on the civilians, but do fire at the parachuting Communist Likon troops...

OOC: its not a weapon, i never stated it was a weapon.

IC:
Madam Vilspar comes into the harbor and meets the boat, shaking the hands of her most loyal soldiers

Soldier: Its good to see you Madiline

Vilspar: Tom, can we finish this without the use of our most sacred device.

Soldier: Madiline its not a weapon, you know that, do others know that?

Vilspar: i should hope so, this is the only foreesable way to peace.

(She unviels the package, it is a VERY larg Speakerphone)

(on load speaker)

Vilspar: ATTENTION ALL WARING NATIONS I ASK YOU TO ALL COME TO A CONFERANCE AT THE FCD War headquaters on the good ship "Tolerance" the hope is to forge peace between all nations

The Five Civilized Nations will not participate in these so-called "peace talks. Continue the operation...

--Vice Defense Minister, Armad Delaz

very well five nations, do not participate, you obviosuly had no plans for peace

Vilspar

Council of 12

We had plenty of chances for peace, PEACE IS OUT, WAR IS IN. Communist Likon made the decision by not backing off and not initiating peace talks. If they wanted peace, they would have gotten intouch with Credonia, of Five Nations, we are spearheading this operation, but they didnt, so this is the only other means of diplomacy. If they cant adhere to our demands, they i guarantee that they will adhere to our actions, hostile actions, despite our peaceful endeavour.

or perhaps it is because your nations have been agresive since the start of this situation,
"The principle of unity of command

Thus we may know that there are five essentials for victory:

He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight.
He will win who knows how to handle both superior and inferior forces.
He will win whose army is animated by the same spirit throughout all its ranks.
He will win who, prepared himself, waits to take the enemy unprepared.
He will win who has military capacity and is not interfered with by the sovereign.
But when the army is restless and distrustful, trouble is sure to come from the other feudal princes. This is simply bringing anarchy into the army, and flinging victory away. [3:16-17]"

From: President Sutton of the United States of Credonia
To: Leaders of Continental Democracy

The US of Credonia will not enter into any peace talks until Communist Likon halts all attacks upon Communist Idealism, Five Nations, and the USC, and then openly states that they want peace talks. Then and ONLY then will Credonia cease fire and attend peace talks. We want a PUBLIC STATEMENT from Communist Likon First.


Kaimoni .A. Sutton
President of the US of Credonia

In response to Continental Democracy, I have this quote:

"Every man is a potential enemy, every place a potential battlefield."

This war must be fought and the 5CN's score with General Nilats must be settled...

"a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step"

let that journey be one of peace, let us all take that first step.

5CN's

Sun Tzu's art of war, wich is where i find most of my inspiration says a lot of war but on the planning of war he states

"The general that hearkens to my counsel and acts upon it, will conquer: let such a one be retained in command! The general that hearkens not to my counsel nor acts upon it, will suffer defeat:--let such a one be dismissed! "

BASICALLY, it means, listen to your peers, especially those whome comes from the other side

"Every man is a little war..." War will always occur...

the greatest men in history are not seen for there prowlice in war, but rather in the persuit of peace

gentlemen, lets let our heads cool here before we have another war break out between the two of you. Lets wait for C.L. and C.I.'s response before we start debating anything.

Mr. Sutton with all sincerety, i question your motives. non the less i will keep my diplomats at bay

The 5CN troops begin to stand down and evacuated from the cities...

The 5CN government demand that General Nilats step down for unrigged elections to occur and for General Theodore to be released...

why are you questioning my motives? Everything i have done up to this point has been justified. My attacks upon C.L.'s forces in C.I. are justified. I gave ample warning, and not just one, SEVERAL, including private telegrams to the C.L. government telling them to stand down and back out and hold a peace meeting, yet they did not comply, and i was compelled to do what was right, to attack. If the government of Communist Idealism has a problem with me attaking C.L. on their very terriroty then i would have backed out as i was prepared to do not too long ago. So while you are questioning my motives, you should be questioning the motives of C.L. who say they want peace yet they refuse to give back the land that they took.

5CN, thank you for standing down, i am shure we can work this out. but only through peace

"the pen is mightier then the sword"

A Grotian freighter full of medicine and food supplies begins the long trip to Communist Likon. It has no military escort.

Delagate: Madam Vilspar, the plan has worked
(with a smile on her face)
Vilspar: praise the spirit lords. inform out military to pull back from the communist border and to move to a allied nation, send in 50 thousand pounds of food and 100 thousand of our finest doctors
Delegate: I will inform there families at once!

2 hospital ships and 2 frighters carrying medical supplies escorted by military destroyers steam for Communist Idealism to take care of the wounded from the march that ended in a bloody scene early today. They should arrive by tomorrow

i am ordering the same ammount of movements into communist idealism for help, furthermore to help the situation i will ask that we all help both nations financially, and help in the peace process,

***In an underground bunker of the Defense Ministry***

"Lord Delaz, our special forces are in position..."

"Good... Operation Guillotine is a go...

***In the Ocean***

A trio of Albion Class Hospital Ships steam towards the island, escorted by several freighters carrying emergency goods and supplies...

The parliment awaitedd Nilats to speak. Within the parliment hall in Jovita they stood awaiting the suprise he had informed them of.
"Gentlemen after all that has occured war must continue."
"Your mad Nilats" Brukus, the minister of Foreign Affairs said. "This war is destroying us.
"I agree" Said Kassio, the minister of Defense said, "At least allow some of my generals to take command"
"I am afraid we must liberate the Communist Idealism people, we must become one again. A Capitlaist victory would destroy us totally!"
"I must agree with Nilats" Came a voice from the shadows. The ministers turned and saw General Theodore walking up towards Nilats.
"Brother i thought it was not time for your reappearance."Nilats said.
Without saying a word General Theodore walkeed up to his brother, looking strong and powerful in his gleaming red uniform. Slowly he pulled a knife out of his belt and stabbed Nilats in the stomach. Quickly Brukus and Kassio came forward, drawing their ceremonial knves of office and began to stab Nilats, all over his body. Soon all the parliment was doing the same, and Nilats bloody corpse collapsed onto the floor.
"Gentlemen, war has begun and war must continue. We shall liberate the people of Communist Idealism, and hold a free referendum upon the joining of our nation. If they vote yes, then we shall re unite, if they say no we shall leave."
"General we thought Nilats had killed you!"
"No, but there shall be time for that later i am taking command of the armed forces, we shall gather the Red Army here. Then we beat back the oppressors.

President Sutton recieves word from the CIB (Central Intellegence Beaural) that Nilats has been assasinated by his own members of parliament.
"sir, we have undoubtable reason to believe that they want the war to continue" says an agent from the CIB. "very well, they can bring it on, were ready for them, we have been building and mobilizing our forces while we waited for a response. If they want to be destroyed, then thats what shall happen."

Shortly after, President Sutton ordered nuclear forces to DEFCON 2 (Defense Condition 2- HIGH State Of Alert) and ordered the following forces to rendezvous with coalition forces off the coast of Communist Idealism:

SSN Los Angeles Class Attack Submarine CSS Liberty
SSN Los Angeles Class Attack Submarine CSS Freedom
SSN Los Angeles Class Attack Submarine CSS Sutton (assigned to evac. Madam Velspar, Leader of Continental Democracy our of the area)
Wasp Class Amphibious Assult A/C Carrier CSS Abraham
Wasp Class Amphibious Assult A/C Carrier CSS Washington

the following additional ground forces to backup the 1st Army Infantry Division:

100,000 Army Infantry Units
1000 T-64 Heavy Tanks

The following air units have been sent in to the Communist Likon capital for bombing runs:

15 B-52 Stratofortress bombers
50 F-14 Ultra Tomcats
200 Alpha Fighters (100 of which will provide air coverage for Continental Democracies troops at the border points to block an attack by C.L.)

Nuclear forces on alert:
99 LGM Minuteman III NUCLEAR ICBM
50 SS-25 Sickle NUCLEAR ICBM
1 Hydrogen Bomb
100 Anthrax GAMMA Bombs

This is a message for the Communist Likon Government from President Kaimoni Sutton:

"The time has come for us to show our rath, you have for days ignored our demands for a peaceful end to this conflict, and now you shall pay. Surrender now, or be crushed by the coalition. You cant win, surrender now or be destroyed."

The Grotian freighter Narwhal slowed at it approached the Likonian coast. Pillars of smoke could be seen, as well as the contrails of bombers heading towards the lands of Idealism.

"Captain, you really want to take us in there?" the radio operator asked. There are a LOT of armed units in there. And we aren't exactly popular around these parts...

"Nope, Chief, we aren't...but we have our orders."

"Sir...radiation levels are increasing...shall we button up the ship."

"ALL HANDS, RIG THE SHIP FOR FALLOUT CONDITIONS!!!...Engine room, increase speed to 1/3..."

The little freighter turned slightly and heading into a fjord, the end of which could not be seen...

---Post deleted by NationStates Moderators---

umm, NO

After reviewing the evidence pressent, I have deployed 2 RF-28, and 2 RF-111 to gather intell to confirm President Sutton's claim that indeed Comunist Likon is in violation of international law. As we enforce our laws in our own nation, we will not let any other nations, to begin viloating international law. As a counter effort based upon the confirmation which our recon aircraft have gatherd. We have deployed five hydrogen nukes aboard air transport, with escorts. These units are airborn 24/7 with heavy heavy escorts, and will remain airborn and able to strike the enemy with in a max time of one hour and min time of two min. We will not take these situations lightly, and I urge other nations to embark on this campaign to put an end to the viloation Communist Likon is commiting. These units will remain airborn and on high alert intill this situation is resolved, if need be, the orders to drop these highly destructive bombs will be issued.

Matthew Nowaczewski
United States of Stapestry
President

the FCD troops immediatly back away from the border to the coast awaiting transport back home, there retreat notice is filed

(on board the submarine)

Velspar: Release the bombs, i want that city leveled bomb it untill our planes crash into there buildings

Delagate: Of course madam vilspar, the bombing raids shall begin immediatly

"Lets show them that we mean business" President Sutton says to his cabinet.

"Sir, we need your launch code for nuclear weapons launch" states Secretary of Defense Ferguson. "very well, its 6Q5L8E, make sure detonation is AWAY from C.L's coast but close enough so they can clearly and vividly see the mushroom cloud" sutton continues, "yessir" replies Ferguson

30 seconds later a Minuteman III nuclear ICBM launches from its hardened underground silo. Minutes later it detonates over the water some 200 nm away from the C.L. coast. Shortly after President Sutton sends the following message to the leaders of all nations assisting Communist Likon, including Communist Likon themselves:

"We have launched and detonated a nuclear ICBM off the coast of Communist Likon. The radiation will not harm any citizens and no ships were detected in the area before or after the blast. May this serve as a warning, we are willing to take this war to the next level if you dont back down. I have not arrived at this decision lightly but if needs be, I will be compelled to make a larger attack upon you and your allies. For the final time, STAND DOWN, the allies still have units, adn we do have WMD which will be used if needs be to force a stand down. Once you stand down and surrender, we will talk terms of a cease fire, and then a peace treaty that all involved parties will sign. Once again, let this serve as a warning to you, we are not backing down from you until you stand down and pull out of Communist Idealism."

The sky went white...

Upon coming to, the radio operator looked around. The Narwhal had been slammed against the stone sides of the fjord, and torn open like a tin can. Outside the door of the radio shack was the bridge...or what was left of it. The charred corpse of the captain had...merged...with the radar set. The wheel was nothing but a blackened wooden stump...

The radio operator felt a wave of nausea and was sick. He sat up and looked at his station. Amazingly, it seemed to be functioning...

With great effort, he reached up and grabbed the headset, and pressed the mic button...

"Mayday...Mayday...the is Grotian Motor Vessel Narwhal...we have been hit by nuclear attack off coast of Likon...coordinates as follows..."

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

MartletEye4 reporting nuclear detonation off coast of Communist Likon...point of detonation 20 nautical miles off coast...NOT 200 as Credonia states...weapon airburst, 3 megaton warhead. Fallout heading toward Communist Idealism...weak radio signal from Likonian coast indicating survivors...identity unsure due to background radiation...
Intelligence estimates deaths from fallout 100,000 +...

"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED????!!!!" asked President Sutton. "I dont know sir, we miscalculated the detonation point" replies Sec of Def. Ferguson. "WELL SHOOT, GET OUR GUYS AWAY FROM THE BORDER NOW!!!!" said president sutton in a rage. "YES SIR IM ON IT" ferguson replies.

velspar: I WHANT TO GET OFF THIS BOAT CAPTAIN!

Captain of Sub: we cant do that madam

Velspar: we just retreated 100 thousand of our best troups and you wont let me see whats occured?

Captain: there was a nuclear detonation

Velspar: (shock) i..... i must go pray, we have lost a great number of freinds to the spirt lords.

delegate (to captain): we must get her back to the homeland, she must adress her people...

The CSS Sutton speeds off towards the homeland of madam Velspar escorted by destroyers.

Velspar: Delagate, retreat all troops out of Communist idealism and Communist Likon, whatever is left i whant them comming home. perhaps if i wasnt so... so foolish, (oh i was so foolish) as to commit myself to this war...... spirt lords help me....

Captain: is she ok?, we are headed towards your homeland. she seems a little, off.

Delagate: rules of our country state for each life taken one must be removed from those whome lead, she will, if we dont get her home shortly kill herself, and leave orders to destroy her entire council of 12, this ensures that our nation is ruled by those with minds not of there previous design

(after hearing this the captain hurries off to a phone, to call president sutton to consult on the situation)

Velspar: (writing a executive order) the council of 12 must be disbanded and each member destroyed in the most holy mannor. if i do not return shortly, the people of FCD will re-start the war council of 12. with the intention of not entering into a war situation of what the council suffered

Madam Velspar,

War minister

Council of 12

A campaign has been launched, to detect the damages done, and point out military targets. The air crews armed with hydrogen nukes are going to remain airborn intill further notice, and the recon aircraft have been deployed. Shortly after this statment is issued we will have recon information and assess the situation from there.

Matthew Nowaczewski
United States of Stapestry
President

the captain makes a direct call to the Presidential Palace where President Sutton is working in his office.

"Sir, we have Madam Velspar from Continential Democracy onboard as ordered, however, she is writing an executive order to disband her current government to allow the people to select more leaders. She is also plotting to kill herself if she doesnt reach her country soon. What shall we do?" states captain Kirk

"Bring here here to the presidential palace. Do not tell her where we you are headed, but if she asks, tell her that she is on her way back to her homeland country. If possible, get ahold of her executive orders and destroy them, i dont want a bigger international incident occuring. For now, we are going to keep her presence under wraps, tell her government that problems arose onboard the submarine, however, they are safe and that they will have her back shortly. Its time we have a talk with her" replies sutton

"aye sir, i'll keep you updated on our progress" says kirk

"good" replies sutton as he hangs up the phone.

"Sir the results are in", said John Glenn the presidents right hand man. These photos show heavy build up of vehicles, being fitted with machine guns. There are also some transport aircraft in the area. Civilian life is far from this location, we have confirmed it and have insider information stateing this fact. Based on this information, I have placed the Air teams armed with hydrogen bombs to get ready. I have deployed a fleet of 10 A10s to destroy the military installation along with vehicles being fitted with machine guns. I have deployed all four of the air recon aircraft to monitor and assess the damages, the A10s are now enroute, we will have results in shortly. This is not to show power, but to punish evile.

Matthew Nowaczewski
United States of Stapestry
President

YES!!! The A10s are back home safe, we have a direct hit. With confirmation from our recon aircraft the vehicles were all destroyed along with the building and aircraft around. The air teams with hydrogen nukes are still on standby incase further actions are necessary.

Matthew Nowaczewski
United States of Stapestry
President

The Lord Protector blinked. "They did what, Mr. Goodness?"

"Um, sir, it would appear that Credonia fired a nuclear warhead 20 miles off the coast of Likon..."

The Protector steepled his fingers. "Why would they do that..."

"Obviously, sir, to provoke the area into greater conflict. The southern areas of Likon and Idealism are soaked in radiation. Obviously this nation of Credonia must be punished. I suggest a full -"

The Protector looked over at his new Chief of Staff. "Air Marshal Corner, I suggest that considering the status of the Euroslavian situation, and the forces we have deployed there, we cut our losses. No one can accuse us now of not caring. The loss of the Herald caused contamination, but it was the act of a mad captain. But now our act of contrition - the supply ship - was attacked herself. We will not respond. We do not have nuclear weapons, though now I am afraid we must start developing them. Credonia must deal with the international consequences on her own."

The Foriegn Minister looked across at the Air Force general. "Um...my Lord Protector...that isn't entirely true..."

"What do you mean, Goodman."

"Your former Minister of War, Krieg...well, he had been funding a secret project for quite some time now..."

"A...Secret...Project, Mr. Goodman?"

"Um...yes sir...Grotia has seven atomic weapons. Low yield, approximately 15 kilotons, but enough to destroy a small city."

The Lord Protector closed his eyes..."Why am I always the last to know these things..."

"Would you like to launch a retaliatory strike, sir?"

The Lord Protector looked at his radio set...

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

"This is a GrotSound1 Special Report. The Lord Protector - all hail his name - announced that Credonia must immediately cease military operations and withdraw from Likon and Idealism in the interest of world peace. Failure to do so will result in "grave consequences". The Lord Protector also stated that all parties must attend a peace conference in three days, to be held in the Grotian city of Muu. It is hoped that the Muu Summit will bring about a final cease fire to the Likonian/Idealism war and bring peace to the region.

Now, the latest hit song from The Manholes, "Fallout of Love"
CLICK!

Theodores rage was unparallelled. The act of nuclear terror was undisptably the single most insane event in this war.
The Bombers Enrola Day and Goose Spaboose were loaded with nuclear missiles and began to fly to Credonia, and ICBM launch sites within the Colony of Lipvinity were opened, and 3 nuclear missiles were readied. The watheads in the bombers were empty. The warheads in the launchsites were not. Likon had been preparing its nuclear warhead program for a lot longer than Credonia. It's weapons could level a city in under a minute after launch. The dummy weapons would be dropped on their capital and unless they immediatley pulled all forces away from Communist Idealism, revenge for their nuclear attack would be taken.
Meanwhile artillery units of the Red Army deestroyed all coalition resistance in Noumea, and a mix force of Red Caps and Revolutionary guards landed inside and told the population Likon was comming.
The people launched an attack on their oppressors as the Red Army pusheed through, and consolidateed their hold on the city.
A small amount of Likon losses were taken, and the Hospital units are busy treating the injured from both sides.
The amount of coalition forces dead is unknown, as is how many escaped. The Red Army prepared for its advance upon Glycerine, which would occur with much public support over the next few days.
The Air Force has begun patrols all around Communist Likon and Communist Idealism preparing to shoot down any forces prepared to advance. Submarine Wolf Packs supported by Battleships and Destroyers are patroling the waters, any ships they find will be immeediatley fired upon.

President Sutton send an audio message to the governments of Communist Likon, Commnist Idealism, and Grotia. The US of C warned that any failure to cooperate with is could result in serious actions being taken against you. The US of C, while not deliberatly trying to attack Communist Likon, is sending a message that we will not be forced out of a conflict that you yourselves have started. We will stand by our allies and we will protect them, even if it means protectign them with the nuclear weapon. Now you may have one or two cmall nuclear weapons but be realistic here, we have 124 nucler ICBM's, plus 1 hydrogen bomb, and 100 biological weapons at our disposal, so as long as we have these weapons, we will not back down until YOU back down. The US of C does not want to escalate this situation anymore than it already had. If you launch a weapon of mass destruction against us, we will counterstrike with a FULL retatalitory attack upon you, and Communist Likon will be left to nothing but rubble, and surely thats not what you want. Now, the US of C will ONLY pull out of Communist Likon and Communist Idealism if you stand down. As a sign that we mean wat we say, i am haulting ALL raids over the Communist Likon capital. ALL naval and air forces are now returning to thier bases. Both the Army and Marine infantry divisions along with their artiliary and tanks will remain in Communist Ideal territory until we have confirmation of your troops standing down. We will be more than happy to attend the peace meeting, however, we will only attend and back down if you match our demobilization. I will talk to the other members of the coalition and will get the to pull troops out of the area as well. Until your forces stand down, our nuclear forces back at credonia will remain at DEFCON 2 (One level short of nuclear war) if you back down we will drop the level to DEFCON 3, and during the talks we will drop it to DEFCON 4. Once the situation has been stabilized, it it will drop down again to DEFCON 5 (no alert). Will you comply?

After these chain of events, I feel that my nation's actions to disarm these people commiting crimes and destroying key military targets completes my nations goals. We hope that we can work things out between Grotia and communist likon, but that may be yet far to come. We did our best to have Civilian cassulities to a min. I am calling back all units and ordering our air units armed with hydrogen nukes, to return home at once. Im pleased to say that a last run of recon aircraft have shown that perhaps true war is not wanted, and that is an indication to start the peace process. I hope that nuclear war will not have to come to. But if it does, god help us all. I urge all nations to recall thier nuclear weapons as I did.

Matthew Nowaczewski
United States of Stapestry
President

Outraged at Credonia, and elated with the libertaion of Noumea the PLA(Peoples Liberation Army) of Communist Idealism, who once were a simple mob marched towards the Credonian armed forces.
They were armed, they were millions strong, they had come from all over the country for this, and they would have their say.

Generals got word of approaching armed citizens and made a rapid deployment back into their trans port units and out in to the ocean. Credonian forces suffered 45 casualties on the way off of the island, but safely made it to the shores.

President Sutton made the following announcement to the international community: "Ladies and gentlemen, Credonia has obviously lost brave men and women who risked their lives to protect those of Communist idealism. However, despite our peaceful effort to bring this conflict to an end, the people have spoken and are driving us from the country. I have ordered all remaining units back to Credonia, and all nuclear forces to stand down to DEFCON 3. We urge nations of the coalition to withdraw as it is obvious that our efforts here are fruitless. Let it be made known that Communist Likon has gotten away with violating international law, and at this time, there is nothing we can do due to the small size of our relativly powerful nation. I will be attending the peace meeting to ensure peace between our nations but for now, we are out of this conflict. For the members of the coalition who choose to continue to fight, we wish you good luck. Good evening ladies and gentlemen."

United States of Stapestry would like to make it clear that the only reason Hydrogen bombs were deployed and held on standby was in case a counter strike was needed to stop a nuclear launch against us. We had no intention of useing those bombs, inless we were fired upon with nukes. Our main effort was to destroy very few forces to help restore order. We have been out of this war and want to make it clear that we are our of this war. We would also like to establish a cease fire agreement. And as last stated all forces have returned home.

Official Statement from the Office of General Theodore to the United States of Credonia, to be relayed around the globe on television and radio.

To the Leader of the United States of Credonia

You have come to conflict with us lately, but why? Nilats actions were unwarranted but none of your concern. You did not know the reasons, the history behind it. Your war mongering has made the people of Communist Idealism isolated and starving.
In the cities of Jovita and Noumea which we currently control; there are no starving people, no starving children, but then in the citys under coalition control, Glycerine and the newly named Wroth many thousands are starving and dying, then when they form a mob instead of helping them you shoot them.
You do not seem to care that we have been saving lives of these people by shipping food and water to them, with money we could have used to buy more bullets to shoot your people with.
Then you launch nuclear missiles at us. You seem to misinterpret our capabilities, we can count on resources that you have not even discovered yet. Our current nuclear arsenal outweighs yours seven times over. You do not seem to want peace, but armageddeon!
If you pull out now multitudes of lives shall be saved. If you stay the consequence will be an act of insanity which mankind shall regret for centurys to come.
I beg you, with the will of not only the people of Communist Likon, but also Communist Idealism, and most of all humanity, please leave this place!

General Theodore, acting leader of Communist Likon.

As a precaution, the US of Credonia would like to send a delegate (instead of the president) to attend the Muu Peace Summit. We hope that peace can be reached between all of our nations to bring an end to this horrific incident.

This is just an reiteration, all Credonian forces have been withdrawn from the area and are now on their way back to the USC. No further military actions will be taken, however, we do strongly urge you to turn your aircraft currently enroute to our nation around so no further conflicts arise.

General Theodore smiled as he heard of the evacuation of Credonian trroops, He quickly ordered humanitarian groups into Communist Idealism to distribute Food, Water, blankets and begin to treat the undernourished and the sick.
The military troops from Justarianism and Lipvinity returned to their homes, prepared to bury the dead. The POW's Likon had captured were released.
Communist Likon has begun reconstruction, using the military forces in the different cities under different tasks of restoring order, building, and helping families locate eachother.
General Theodore has begged 2.4 Billion Diplomas to rebuild Communist Idealism, and calls upon the coalotion troops who have caused so much damage to help in the costs.
Once stability has been restored, the Holy Empire of CIGP has agreed to hold a general referendum of the rejoining of the two nations.
Has peace prevailed over madness?

The Holy Empire of CIGP pledges 1.2Billion indulgences to the rebuilding of Communist Idedalism, and will send 50 Engineers and 300 workmen to help with reconstrtuction.

Communist Likon thanks CIGP for it's contribution.

The Federation of Continental democracy wishes to donate 200 thousand Giltar to communist Likon as well as three shipments of food into there lands. let this battle end here and now

United States of Stapestry would like to send relief efforts containing:

5 full shipments of food and water(approx. 1 ton each shipment)
2500 Marine Speacial Forces to help restore law and order in the communist likon's best interest. (5week deployment)

Food and Water will be airdropped, and Marine's deployed upon a welcomed confirmation.
