Johnistan launches surprise attack on Agrigento (DT war)
Johnistan
18-11-2003, 04:08
Johnistani's fleet of 50 frigates, 45 Destroyers, 40 Cruisers, and 16 Aircraft carriers which were headed for FluffyWuffy have changed course and now steam towards Agrigento. They will begin the attack as soon as within range, about 1 day.
The attack is in response to Agrigento's support of the attack on Dark Terror. If Agrigento stands down and discontinues it's attack, we will not attack.

Thanks, the help is appreciated
Also, en route is the 109th Light Division and the 1st Infantry Division in cargo carriers. They are escorted by 5 Corvettes and 10 Missile Boats

Lol Nianacio... you never stop do ya?

As a sign of recognition of Agrigento standing beside the Allied States in the face of Imperialism (Even though neither of us actually ended up going to war), the Allied Navy is currently preparing a list of older ships currently serving in our Home Fleet, or Reserve Fleet to be shipped to Agrigento along with substantial amounts of Coastal Patrol Boats for local interdiction of enemy supplies. Of course, since we are not at open war with your enemies, we will have to demand payment (Though it can be credit, at any rate a smaller amount then the norm).

I realize the Naval force defending Johnistan is not much. Although I have many strong Naval and Air Powers within my region. If I should be attacked, I shall go to them.
ooc: Oh Nianacio, you are good for a laugh. Have you noticed DT is RPing slightly better. Perhaps you have noticed that it happened about the same time DT and I appeared in the same threads ;).
Old dogs CAN learn new tricks. Anyways, best of luck to you Johnistan. I can send some food supplies if nessesary.

The first of my ships are beginning to enter attack range. They are spread out to allow maximum radar and sonar coverage of the area. The aircraft carriers are behind the destroyers and cruisers the frigates are slightly ahead of the cruisers to protect from subs.
If you want to do anything before I attack Agrigento, please do so now.

And so the tides of war have come to our pristine shores...
With the news of such actions being taken against our nation the whole of the country has made ready. Guarding the shores are countless defensive positions, and the fabled Iron Canopy air defense system. Reserves are being mobilized to join up with the regulars for all out war.
The Navy is remaining in port, certain that the enemy will have to pass through our neighbors territory to reach our own. While the Airforce is taking to air to suppliment ground based defenses.

ooc: Here are some projects I have worked on, and RPed out with my ANH allies.
Current Military Projects
SP/002 "Iron Canopy" - Is a Military Project currently being developed by the Agrigentian Air Force and SAFCOM. The primary contractor is World Corp which will be providing most of the components. "Dark Canopy" is an advanced anti-aircraft defense system which will provide nationwide protection from all airborne threats, with the exclusion of ICBMs. Strategicaly located Radar and permanent SAM sites along with Theatre High Altitude Area Defense Missile Systems, Fighter Interceptor & Air Superiority Fighter bases, Patriot Missile Defense Sites, and EMP shell launching AAA comprise the core elements of this system. The project, at its current stage, provides comprehensive defense against airborne threats. However it is likely that this project will continue for quite some time now.
SP/006 "Lion's Den" - Is a Military Project currently being developed by the Agrigentian Army and SAFCOM. The primary contractor is the Army's Corps. of Engineers. "Lion's Den" is an advanced system of bunkers and tunnels designed to do two things: 1) Provide protection and transportation for our Army during times of crisis and 2) Provide protection for our government and key civilian personnel in the case of A. a large convential war in which our nation is in direct danger or B. Nuclear Attack. This tunnel system is hidden within the Alpini Mountain Range that runs through the center of the Agrigentian Mainland.

My ships move into attack range. Each destroyer, cruiser, and frigate launches 5 Mach 6 "Skipper" missiles at SAM, radar installations, military targets. Half of the ships fire Mach 3 "Harpoon" missiles at your parked fleet.

Picking up the enemy missiles on radar several Aster30 and Aster15 batteries are activated, firing 2 SAM's per incoming missile.
EMP Missiles are also launched, using a similar giudance system to the Aster missiles, literally knocking out clusters of incoming Vampires.
A large portion of the enemy missiles were destroyed. Despite the tremendous effort however several did hit their mark. Luckily Agrigento does not keep all their eggs in one basket, and the fleet they were targeting was only a Guardia Costiere Battle Group. The fleet, aided by its own AEGIS ships did receive severe damage and is counted as combat innefficent.

RE: Force Deployment
It has come to my attention that you have recently been declared war upon for no reason beyond the attacking nation's feeling of inferiority. It has been decided that, since you have been close to our nation for a good length of time, and always suported us, we will deploy forces at your command in order to defend your nation. The following forces are being prepared to be sent to your nation in order to insure your defense:
-VFA(N)-114 Black Lances; 6 F/A-18H Yellow Jackets
-VFA(N)-86 Star Busters; 6 F/A-18H Yellow Jackets
-VF-155 Star Vipers; 6 F/A-18H Yellow Jackets
-VFA-78 Black Sands; 4 F-111X Agile Warriors
-5th Combat Assault Fleet; 4 [i]Imitora[/i] class Arsenal Ships, 6 [i]Virginia II[/i] class Attack Submarines
These forces are ready and willing to assist you in your mission, and on your command, will be sent.

My ships will repeat the process one more time. Targeting mainly the fleet
Again air defenses arise to meet the threat, and takes out serious chunks of the enemy's barrage, however several missiles do get through and damage the port facilities severely as men attempt to abandon their sinking ships.
All over the nation however the home defense fleets remain at bay, but the Air force did not follow suit, nor did the Marines, Army and the Strategic Missile Defense Force - which is now at high alert and has its ICBM's ready to fire (Unless you use WMDs against us, we will not use them).
Missiles, Exocet MM40 Block 3s in this case, from shore batteries are launched at the enemy fleet, numbering 300 in total.
Eurofighters of the AAF have begun sorties, the first run will consist of 8 squadrons:

Imitora, we have a reason for attacking Agrigento. He is supporting nations against Dark Terror, one of my most trusted allies. He can withdraw support and we will cease our attack.
two satellites are flying over Imitora to watch enemy movements.
OOC: Um...that was a secret communication, there is no way in hell you could capture it and read it unless you know exactly what those 8 'x's stand for.

Johnistan
18-11-2003, 05:34
OCC: Wherever the largest concentration of your ships and military installations are.
As the 300 missiles approach the Johnistani fleet point defense lasers mark the incoming targets and shoot down roughly 25% of them. As they approach closer AEGIS missile systems engage the Exocets and destroy another 45%, CIWS follow up and take out 10%. 5 Destroyers are heavily damaged and must return to port, another 8 cruisers are damaged and 2 sink. One aircraft carrier is hit and is going through repiairs.
The incoming Eurofighters are picked up on radar and 12 Raptor Mk 2s and dispatched in defense, they form a wide vee and hope to flank the incoming fighters.

10 minutes later, an F-111X sprinted to altitude, its twin afterburning engines screaming as it shot to the sky. At near sub-atmospheric levels, the weapons bay door opened, and one after another, three anti-satalite missles streaked out towards the sky.

Meanwhile, the 5th assault fleet, on exercises in the Marchian seas, diverted its course, heading towards Agrigento. They would be in firing range of the Johnistany forces within a few hours.

And this is where the lovely part comes in. The Bisonic fleet begins heading at flank speed, away from the fluffywuffy fleet, to the south.
After an uneventful three hour sail, the Imitoran battle fleet moved into maximum contact range with the Johnistan fleet. The first wave of the attack would come from the four Imitora class arsenal ships. Each ship carried with it 650 Vertical Launch Tubes, and each were now loaded with long range anti shipping missles.
"Fire at will, Weapons Officer," the captain of each ship said, near simoultaniously. Within seconds, 2,600 anti shipping missles were screaming towards the Johinstany fleet.

In light of the recent attack on Agrigento by imperialist Johnistani forces (i know ur not imperialist in the thread, but im juss saying that, so play along for now), the islandian forces command has diverted all available rapid reaction Marine forces and Airborne troops to the Agrigentian homeland.
The Eighth and Ninth Amphbious Assault Groups, originally destined for the war against DT, have been sent to AG, as well as the Fifth Forward Shock Division, the First, Seventh, and Sixth Anti-ship/strike units of the Islandian navy, the Seventh Coastal Defense Division, and the Twenty Second Fighter Division.
Eight Urgent Tidings frigates, seven Type 52C-S ships, 8 Sea Dancer class subs, six Naga class cruisers, four Xishan class cruisers, and three Weaver class cruisers are inbound for AG ports near Grand Island.

The 4 EB-1C Vampires, using Athena to stay invisible to radar, silently moved through the cloud cover. Each was armed with the latest in USNE weapons, including a modified version of the CTHEL-32 Airborne Laser(This is within 2015-2025 Tech, the US Army and USAF both have working laser weapons. These aren't like spacetech lasers, they're fickle, and suck power. Don't expect to see them on land.). But the real punch in their arsenal were the 18 "Sea Pheonix" anti-shipping missiles. Each was a heavily modified version of the AIM-54, chosen mainly for their speed (AIM-54s have been known to hit Mach 5...), and given a bigger warhead, GPS/Satellite Targeting systems, and a faster engine.

We also have a collection of agents in various locations, mostly posing as Communist Bonstocknian workers in the embassy of Russian Forces. Tell us if you want the info... it will be valuable.
By the way, our agents have confirmed the existance of the Dark Terror plea to Russian Forces and the Marxist Pact for help.

Sir,
We have learned of your alliance with our great allies Russian Forces and the Marxist Pact. We are looking for help in destroying Maropian Coast and forever destroying the corrupt old regime. As an ally of the Marxist Pact, we ask that you help us in this.

OOC:
My plea for help wasnt secret IC, was it? Your agents are real skilled... :roll:
--Response to Bonstock--
Yes, we are defecitng to the Marxist pact and we are enemies of all religion now, though we will keep a free market system. We can, if you want, simply fire AS-19 Koala cruise missiles with nuclear warheads at Maropian Coast, utterly annihalating it. We can not, at the moment, invade it, unfortunately.

The EI forces Command asks Imitora if they need help, and offers to send a Coastal Defence Division and a Marine Assault Division to Imitora if they would like help kicking DT's ass on their own turf.
J34s launch missiles at the DT fleet, P800s and extended range Type 400-MRS-1 cruise missiles.
H9s launch stand off missiles against UV forces, and EH9s and EJ34s engage UV forces once again in a running battle for air defense.
Air Force S37s and Navy J37Ns (OOC kinda confusing, i kno, but try not to confuse them wit each other), both FSW fighters, launch from carriers in the Pacific and airbases in East Islandia, heading towards the Pissed off American fleet and the Agrigentian fleet, reinforcing the two navies. They periodically refuel from KH9 tankers, and await word from Pissed Off Americans and AG if they need help.
Right. Warpy warpy, I see!

As the P-800's are jammed, shot down, or blown apart by 30mm CIWS, except for 1 damaged destroyer, 2 sunken frigates, and a damaged cruiser, the Bisonic Navy suffers few losses.

OOC-Edited my prev. post to show move to attack range...
IC-
With the fleet nearing southern Agriento waters, combat preparations began. Men in the command centers of the ship began arming the automated missile defense systems, and a constant patrol of U/MF-6 AirHawk UAVs was put over the fleet for air defense, with larger, deadlier fighters ready to scramble.
One of such squadrons sat on the tarmac, on the tail of each of the F-109CNs in the squadron was a semi-transparent logo of a F-109CN, nose down, with scales hanging from the tips of the forward swept wings. Around the circular background was VFA-332 "Flying Justice". The pilots were not far away either, already suited up.
Nervous, yes.
But ready. Ready and sharp.

Imitora's attack
As the 2,600 missiles scream towards their targets every Johnistani ship gunned it to 30 km. As they came within missile range every single ship picked out a certain section of missiles and fired 4 laser beams every 3 seconds. About 25% of the incoming missiles were shot down in this initial phase. As they came into contact range with AEGIS-10 SAMs another 25% was shot down. Both the lasers and missiles fired off, each hitting their targets with an 80% success rate till they came within CIWS range. The 20mm shells tore through the missiles.
20 Destroyers heavily damaged or sunk
15 Cruisers KIA
3 Carriers KIA
21 Frigates KIA.
The counter-attack
Every remaining Johnistani ship finds the Imitoran fleet on radar and launches long range "Chunker" missiles. About 2,100 missiles fly towards the fleet. About 12 Squadrons of Raptors fly are launched right after the missiles, flying wide fast arcs on afterburners to catch the fleet right after the missiles hit. About 20 subs move in silently, using the chaos above as cover.

We are opposed to Dark Terror, and any of his cronies trying to delay a necessary political action. While we wished to help bring his downfall, we were unable to at the time. We have decided to send in the 2nd Advance Battle Fleet outside Agriento territorial waters to prepare for the defense of the nation. En route-
-2 New Empire Class Supercarrier
-4 Imitora Class Arsenal Ship
-12 Valor Class Cruisers
-12 Honor-M Class Missile Frigates
-12 Honor Class Frigates
-10 Syphus Class Combat Submarines

The 4 EB-1C Vampires, using Athena to stay invisible to radar, silently moved through the cloud cover. Each was armed with the latest in USNE weapons, including a modified version of the CTHEL-32 Airborne Laser(This is within 2015-2025 Tech, the US Army and USAF both have working laser weapons. These aren't like spacetech lasers, they're fickle, and suck power. Don't expect to see them on land.). But the real punch in their arsenal were the 18 "Sea Pheonix" anti-shipping missiles. Each was a heavily modified version of the AIM-54, chosen mainly for their speed (AIM-54s have been known to hit Mach 5...), and given a bigger warhead, GPS/Satellite Targeting systems, and a faster engine.
"Papa-Charlie Flight, Papa-Charlie One, prepare to release payload. We are 90 miles from target"
OOC-EDIT-This has been an advance to attack range post.
As the the Raptors fly towards the Imitoran fleet on their attack courses. They pick up the incoming enemy planes and send 2 squadrons of Raptor fights to deal with the incoming threat. Now, only 10 are on their way to attack Imitora and 2 are intercepting Empire's

<tag for later>
With the incomming attack on radar, teh Imitoras hit the Athena(N) system, and disapeared from radars. They moved from their original position and waited for the attack to get closer. The air defence systems on each Imitora kicked in. The two carriers, each with seven squadrons of Yellow Jackets a piece, waited for the Raptors to get in range to launch the fighters.
(You do know that your Raptors are gonna be bingo fuel by the time they get to the Imitora fleet, those missles I launched are near 1,000km ranged missles. We're a good ways away from your fleet).
Be advised that any attacks on Johnistani territory, for whatever reason, will be met with resitance from The Fleet of USNAVY which is located, along with Johnistan in the region of Johnified States of America.
We have sent the 4th fleet to aid in Johnistan's defense

14 Arleigh Burke Class Destroyers
12 Sprunance Class Destroyers

SUBMARINES
2 Benjamin Franklin Class Spec Ops Subs
14 Ohio Class Submarines (SSGN)
18 Los Angeles Class Attack Submarine
10 Seawolf Class Attack Submarine
5 Virginia Class Attack Submarine
We have 3 more fleets avaible if you force us to use them.
Onboard the Duchess Elizabeth, a Virginia II class attack sub...
"Sir, incomming fleet, heavy duty."
"Aye, weapons officer, prepare for fleet launch."
The weapons officer looked up from his book. "Aye Captain. The big guns?"
"Yep, you got the codes?"
"Yessir."
The two men, Captain Thomas Dodge and Weapons Officer Brett Voss removed two keys and a little plastic case from a locker. They moved swiftly towards the firing room, and then the launch weapons console. "Check code?"
The weapons officer cracked open the plastic case. "Kappa Alpha Bravo Bravo One Five Beta."
Dodge looked at the launch panell, and punched in the acces code. The computer beeped. "Code accepted, your key, Officer Voss," he said, holding out his hand.
The weapons officer handed over his key. Dodge accepted it, and pushed both into the launch command console. He stood aside, and looked at teh weapons officer. "Ok, shoot in 3...2...1!" They both twisted their keys. A hatch opened, and exposed a red button. Dodge reached forward, and pressed the button.
On the outside of the sub, two hatches popped open. Two long range sea skimmer style missles floated from the tubes. As they broke the surface of the sea, the two cases exploded open, freeing the missles. The two missles shot up into the air as their inertial guidance systems kicked in. Using AMT technology, developed by IMI, the screamed towards the USNAVY fleet, staying low over the water, less than one hundred fleet. Both missles used scramjet engines in order to increase hit probability, and shot towards the enemy fleet at near Mach 5.7.
Each missle contained a Plasma Yield warhead, a single one able to take out the entire enemy fleet. Two were used to double the damage.
OOC:Plasma yield warheads have been in Imitoarn development for a while. The explosion makes that of a mild yield nuclear blast look like a 500lb dumb bomb.
*The cardboard missiles collapse harmlessy against the metal hull of the nimitz class carriers as USNAVY contemplates leaving the RP unless he can get confirmation of what the tech level of the parties involved is supposed to be*
Larkinia
20-11-2003, 07:12
From Imitora, cause he doesn't have net access right now.
His tech level is 2025, and plasma yield warheads come from Dale Brown. Should you ignore the attack, then he will ignore your fleet which he says is large for an Aug. nation.
OOC: I'm not accepting the attack... I feel justified in not accepting it as I am modern tech.
As for the size of my fleet, I still have more then what I posted. I have only a Navy, every ground based military element is based to support the fleet :)
Larkinia
20-11-2003, 07:48
OOC: From Imitora,
All right, then I am ignoring your fleet. Attacking countries need to accept the tech levels of a defending country.
As to the size of your military, you couldn't possibly afford that fleet, and if you want to claim that it is from military sales, you need to read the thread that shows that 'store fronts do not equal big governmnet spending'.
That's fine there seems to be many other enemies to fight we can just ignore eachother :(
Again for my fleet do the math if you want, I still maintain that my fleet is not too big for my size, after all I am larger than the United States.
Larkinia
20-11-2003, 07:59
OOC: From Imitora again:
OK, the plasma yield missles are now heading for the Johnistany fleet, and that as of now, the Yellow Jackets have launched to intercept his Raptors, (theres 14 squadrons, so...84 fighters heading for his. Relate that they have their Athena's activated, so they are invisable to radar).
As y'all were...

whos attacking AG?
IC
"Incoming ships," Sensor Officer Lt Guo reported. "Big fleet, stats still coming in from SAT surveillance and offshore posts."
Commander Cui looked carefuly at the stats. He poked the screen to make sure it was working, and shook his head.
"Alert all units along the AG seaboard," he ordered. "We have shit incoming. Get the SPGs online, and tell the S300s and Anshu batteries that Raptors are incoming, and launch at them before the Aggies get there. Get the coastal batteries online, and tell them to track and shoot ASAP."
"Shi."
**********
The fifty Type 400MRS1 batteries activated quickly, their crews scrambling to positions and quickly engaging satellite-aided sensor systems. They got numerous locks, and launched as soon as they could, nearly a hundred fifty missiles soaring out of camouflaged, hardened silos provided by the AG government. The reload crews were kept busy, as in excess of three hundred missiles were launched at the enemy within ten minutes, from the four battalions assigned on one coast of AG.
On the other coast of AG, the P800 batteries and the YJ82K batteries launched their missiles, about a hundred missiles from the other four missile battalions of the Coast Defence Division, making their way towards the intruders.
SPG units opened up their radars, preparing for the onslaught of fighters, and S300 units and ANshu batteries launched their projectiles at the incoming aircraft.

So while your raptors may have read teh yellow jacket take off, now they dont read anything. Also, those anti shipping missles you launched at my ships, how are they guided? And you do know I launched two plasma yeild warheads at your ships.

OOC-Athena (What my bombers are using...) is a superconductive liquid/helium cooled computer inside the aircraft. It is loaded with the radar signature of the aircraft, to prevent detection through backscatter. The aircraft has multiple >1cm long antennae that detect incoming radarwaves, and emit the freq to cancel them out. I developed and refined it in June, and have so far, only given it to Imitora.
Read Stephen Coont's Fortunes of War, that's where I got it from.

well if u were RPing Johnistan, my "crappy Chinese missiles" wouldnt leave a dent in ur fleet, would it?
Sigh.
IC
(Learn Chinese By Jin Da MC plays)
As reinforcements from the forces that have recently left the UV Area of Operations arrive at AG, Marines and paratroopers are landed in facilities scattered throughout the beautiful country of Agrigento, now turned into a warzone. Missile batteries are rushed to AG, and special forces prepare for insertions in Johnistan (OOC is this possible? do u hav special super look radars that can detect humans like the nefarious DT?), while LACMs and Type 400MRS1s with extended range are fired at Johnistan from batteries in AG and EI.
Hearing the withdrawl of the attack by Johinistany forces, the Imitoran fleet moves to full speed. The Imitora class Arsenal ships, now with their VLS tubes reloaded, speed forward at 45 knots, using their AMT targeting system to pinpoint the Johnistany fleet. They would wait till they were closer to launch.
The commander of the Duchess Elizabeth used a remote detonation system to destroy the plasma yield missles harmlessly over the ocean. Now, 6 Virginia II class attack subs speed forward at 25 knots each searching away for enemy subs to use their supercavatiting HE torpedoes on.
The two carriers sped forward as well, each with 4 VFA(N)s (Attack Squadron, Naval) also moved forward behind the arsenal ships, speeding along at near 45 knots. They kept in constant communication with the Yellow Jackets out looking for Raptors.

21-11-2003, 20:21
Every remaining Johnistani ship. About 30 destroyers, 30 Cruisers, 40 Frigates fire half of their Mach 4 Harpoon missiles at the Imitoran fleet. Thats about 230 missiles going towards individual ships in your fleet. The fleet then turns around and is trying to gun it past your fleet. Cutting it real close. F-22s go up and provide air defense as they try to pass.

21-11-2003, 20:29
Locking on with GPS, the EB-1Cs release 54 Mach 6.5 Sea Pheonix Anti-ship missiles, which quickly settle to a mere 20 feet over the ocean surface. They then activate Athena and begin the return flight to Hesselman AFB.
With the lack of heat emision from the Imitora class, and Athena(N) systems, the arsenal ships are safe from attack. The missles all turn and target the two carriers.
An emergency launch of a singal plasma yield ballistic missle, with imidiate detonation upon surface break whipes out a good portion of the incomming vampires. 15 manage to get past the blast, and slam into one of the carriers. It suffers heavy damage, but its two cats are still operational.
The Virigina IIs, still unnoticed due to their Sonar Absorbant Matterials, all flood their six forward facing torpedo tubes, and launch Mk. X supercavitatig torpedoes. The torpedoes, 36 in all, streak towards their targets at near 650mph.
The arsenal ships, now in close, relaunch, sending another 2,600 anti shipping missles with HE shaped charge warheads towards the Johnistany fleet. The F-22s are fired on by the F/A-18H Yellow Jackets with their VTT-AMRAAMs, designed specifically to take on stealth fighters.

Johnistani Defense systems on the ships get about 75% of the missiles as they near the fleet. 2 Carriers go up, 13 Frigates die, and 20 Cruisers die. The remaining ships reprogam, the rest of their missiles to track in on a visual target. The missiles are set to arm close to the enemy fleet and home in on the visual signature of destroyer, frigate. The fleet launches another 200 missiles per ship, the same type as before, only homing in on a visual signature.
8 Squadrons of F-22s lift off and fly to a high altitude, the pilots are preparing a classic "divebomb" attack as the missiles sea skim in. They will also fire Harpon visual guided missiles.

Seeing how Johnistan isnt replying to my attacks from before, i'll juss go ahead and launch more missiles.
IC
J34s of the Joint Naval AntiShip/STrike Units fire more standoff missiles, Type 400MRS1s and newly created Type 500S4s. Contrary to what the nefarious DT thinx, these missiles are Islandian tech, and not Chinese tech, even tho Chinese tech can kick his godmodding ass.
They skim over the water with ramjet engines. WHile not as formidable as their Athena counterparts, they can still do a reasonable amount of damage to prepared ships.
As they enter the terminal phase, the missiles, all hundred of them, pop up above the ocean violently and twist and turn and plunge towards the Johnistani ships.
Sorry, Johnistan, but you're invading our ally. You responded when we invaded ur ally, so you know how it goes.
Good luck.
We are shocked at this attack on our ally. Previously Agrigento has helped us against enemy agression. We will defend him.
Agrigento, when we left this Earth for Sirius, we left much of our navy and airforce behind in puppets. We will turn over control to you of both. This consists of ~10000 airplanes ranging from topnotch fighters to 1945 tankers and cargo transports. Our navy consists of 84 gravships, 12 carriers, and hundrends of destroyers, cruisers, and patrol boats. Crew provided. Use them as you wish. If you need missiles or tanks we can supply those too. In addition, the TrippyHippian army of warmongering hippies is being mobilized.

We graciously thank you for your support. We will hold these troops for a while, and will only use them if neccessary.

Admiral Pertand wearily slumped his shoulders. After finally extricating the USSS fleet from the Unum Veritas "incident," another potential disaster brewed on the horizon. While it seemed as if the Agrigenton forces et als had replused Johnistan, with Dark Terror threatening to intervene a crisic could still develop. USSS supply ships were reloading munitions and transferring full loads of fuel oil to the destroyers; any damaged ships were replaced with fresh ones and aircraft were ferried to the carriers to make up for what was lost.
The Admiral opened communications with the rest of the fleet. "We didn't join this thing to sit out because we took a little hurt. We're going to head to Agrigento's coastal waters ASAP. If they need us, fine, we'll help; if not, we can sit out just as easy. But if DT and his "friends" become involved, our friend from UV will need all the help he can get, and that's for damn sure." Pertand sighed again. "We can't let that bastard country spread this war around any more than it has already. I'm sorry you didn't get to see you families; I'm sorry more of you may die in the conflict we may be joining. But we do it for Skepticism, and the world in whole. Duty and honor! Pertand out."
OOC: This Athena system reeks of Godmodding to me, unless there is some way around it (one possible one I have already thought of). So far, however, you have presented it as completely airtight, and therefore suspect.
Mach 20 missiles? What the hell?! Maybe a Mach 20 rocket, but even so nothing you could carry on a ship!

OCC: You could just track the reverse transmission Athena gives out couldn't you?
OOC: All he has to do is read Fortunes of War, it takes one dogfight to figure how to handle Athena. And now, you cant trace the reverse transmission. Thre is none. The point is that the Athena eliminates the radar waves from going anywhere. Its so simple to counter, its almost funny you havne't figured it out yet, lol.

OOC: One idea would be to point out the "holes" in the radar. It might take a bit to program the computer to alert you to that sort of thing, but the absolute lack of anything can be just as noticable as the existance of something. Or you could switch frequencies very rapidly and hope that the system cannot keep up (which it would not be able to, if you did it fast enough, because by the time it switches its "anti-radar" to a certain frequency, the radar is using another one).
So we have creative solution and tech solution.
Johnistan
22-11-2003, 05:44
Well, my sailors are busy at programming the radars to see "nothing" while also trying to get their fermoral arteries to clot. The radar operators are switching frequencies so fast, they are beginning to see flashes of boogeys on the radar.
OOC: Skepticism's comment was OOC. Its bad RP to use OOC knowledge. If you want to actually try to RP figuring out how to do this, go for it, although by the time you figure it out, your fleet will be non existant, and I still wanna know how many of your raptors are still in the air considering
A) The first launch had to fly a hella of a long way to attack, and
B) I've had fighters in the air for 3 pages now, and you have yet to say you've lost a singal Fighter. My VTT-AMRAAMs are designed to take out stealth fighters and non stelahe fighters alike.
And thirdly->your still trying to hard to figure out how to kill Athena. The system is so insanely easy to beat. Thats why you have yet to see it. I'll also check with NE (as well as bring my copy of FoW back from home) to see if Skepticism's idea would work.

Lets say that half of my fighters got blown to shit by yours. The rest return safely to the carriers.
I launched those Mach 4 Harpoons reprogrammed to home in on a visual signal of your ships. You can say this is not possible but you have Athena, give me something. I launched a shitload of them at your ships. I got 72 F-22s heading for a high altitude and they're going to come down right as the missiles hit.

The Eurofighters, aided by AWACs and Land based Radar systems pick up the enemy fighters from 75 kms out and fire 2 Meteor AAM per enemy fighter
(The missiles won't exactly add up bc the EF's only carry 2 of the Meteors. Therefore some of your fighters will be wholly neglected, especially at this range it won't really matter because by the time they close we will just switch to Mica ASRAAM's)
Meteor Missile Specifics:
Range class Beyond visual large air-to-air missile
Range in excess of 100 km
Speed in excess of Mach 4
Length 3.67 m
Mass classified
Propulsion variable flow ducted rocket ramjet
(Bayern Chemie/Germany)
Aerodynamics cylindrical with asymmetric ramjet air intake configuration
4 aft mounted fins
Seeker active radar
(MBDA, THALES)
Navigation,Guidance inertial mid-course with data linking
autonomous terminal guidance using advanced proportional navigation
Warhead blast fragmentation
Fuzes proximity (Saab Bofors Dynamics/Sweden)

OOC: Tose 72 F-22s are gonna have to deal with more Yellow Jacket interceptors, I have 14 squadrons (112 fighters) in the air. Assuming a few of your pilots got some lucky gun kills,a dn some have to come back to reload...I'll say I have 95 fighters in the air, so it sould be good. I wont say the visual targeting isn't possible...accept Harpoons have no visual target aquisition system. Also, how fast is you fleet moving? My fleet is about 40 KNm away from yours. Clear up the visual targeting, and I'll continue.
IC:
An offer is broadcasted to the Johinistany fleet. Surrender totally, and we will allow you to leave with no harm.
Johnistan
22-11-2003, 06:12
OCC: Screw it
Anyway, the fighters warning systems go off and the ones targeted engage their defensive aids. Because they are flying so fast and high, most of the missiles veer off course. 10 of the fighters are hit and go down

Define surrender totally
Total surrender means that you will
Destroy all missles in the air by remote
Call off all fighters, return them to the carriers, and deactivate (only for the sail back home) the catapults
Deactivate all tracking, targetting, and attack radars, however, search radars will be allowed
Surface all submarines
Hand over launch codes for all ballistic weapons on all ships in the area. The codes can be changed upon the return of the ships to a Johnistany harbor
Should you agree to these terms, your fleet will be esscorted home, and we gaurentee the safety of your sailors. Also, we will offer up to one billion units in Johnistany currency to the rebuilding of the fleet. However, it will be asked you sign a non agression pact with Agrigento and Imitora.
Johnistan
22-11-2003, 06:24
That's exactly what we meant by "ending the war against Agrigento"
All the missiles blow up in the air. All the planes return to port. All the codes are sent via radio. All the tracking systems are being turned off. Everyone just wants to get home, and severely revamp the Navy.

22-11-2003, 06:27
Imitora's proposal is being debated in the Senate.
Onboard Imitoran ships, sailors celebrate with the vicotry. Loss was minimal, and now the war was over. The Agrigentonian people were now safe, and another victory could be chalked up to Imitora. The fleet moved in, and surounded the Johinstany fleet, forming a defensive circle. A helicopter was being prepared so that LowAdmCapt. Saul of the 5th Patrol fleet could offer an official peace to the Johnistany Commander.

Onboard the Johnistani ships everyone is pissed off. People swipe the decks with sullen looks on their faces, the captains, officiers, will all be facing a council to decide what the hell went wrong. The new Admiral James A. Watermen, accepts the peace from the Imitoran captain. The old Admiral, the idiot that planned the attack was seen trying to escape in a life raft. As he was escaping, fired their rifles at his raft till it sunk, direct orders from the top.
Agrigento, no hard feelings *pistol wink*
The Johnistani Navy commanders are already looking for ways to make sure that this kind of defeat will not happen again.

Sicilia, Agrigento
_________________________
"Our nation, Agrigento, has been thought of has been a place of security, a solid rock amidst a turbulent sea. The walls of this country have stood-fast against enemy incursions since the Great Azorean war, almost a half century ago. That great falsehood, that facade of security, has finally been shattered. No longer are we invulnerable, no longer are will invincible. The nation of Johnistan has bloodied our own soil, and we must strike them back, for vengeance is the only true justice, and that is always merciless. For too long have we used Christian forgiveness as a contemptible refuge of the coward.....Johnistan will pay, and those who truly caused this great injustice upon our nation will pay tenfold.", he paused for a moment and glared beyond the audience to the very back of the building. "This is indeed a sign, a sign that our foreign policy is so inheritantly wrong. It is because we act outside our country in matters that do not concern us that such death has been brought to our shores. It is because of the policies of this administration that we are forced to endure this", said Bruno Testardo viciously.
There was silence as what just transpired began to soak into the brains of the audience filled with Senators. This was not just a condemnation to Johnistan, nor an argument for Isolationism, but a direct attack at the president.
President Corleone began his slow, almost agonizing walk, from the back of the Great hall flanked by Vice President Maria Sossetto and his close advisor Roberto DiPartenza.
He carefully climbed the subtle steps to the stage as Sen. Testardo exited from the other end.
"There is not much I can say that Mr. Testardo has not said. I will not stand here before you, in this great meeting place and claim that our nation is, or ever was invulnerable. Nor will I stand here and assure you that we will not be attacked again. I will not lie to you, not in this hallowed hall, not while standing on the same stage that Umberto VII used when he abdicated the throne over a century ago. Yes, we were attacked, and yes, it was because of our foreign policy. A foreign policy that I endorsed, and still do to this day. Now, that I have answered Mr. Testardo's accusations, I will like to ask you, the voice of the people some questions", he said, directing his voice at the 300 Senators in attendence. "This is not about vengeance, revenge has no place in the running of a country. Not since Umberto II have we been heeded such rantings as Mr. Testardo just displayed, I ask you, how well did that turn out? Such petty things have been the downfall of the world's mightiest civilizations, are we to join that growing fraternity? Now we have a chance, a chance for a peaceful resolution. A chance to atone for the lives lost, like Admiral Giancaldo is doing in Unum Veritas for us at this exact moment. So many young men have lost their lives, aand now that we have a chance to end it, will you pass it? Will you let more of our men and women die? Will you allow the defilement of our soil to continue, feed by a river of blood? When you go to vote, think long and hard about your answers to these questions. Think long and hard about the young persons on board our ships, the ships of our allies and our enemies. Think so hard that you burn their images into your head, because their lives rest upon you, and may God help us if you choose wrong."

As usual, news from the outside world was slow to reach the Commonwealth. By the time the Ministry of Foreign Affairs even realized that our close allies were at war, it appeared to be over, leading to much parliamentary confusion.
Support rallies for Agrigento were held across the Commonwealth, but mostly in Tharia. Harbor City was the stage of a massive protest, where the Longshoremen even offered to throw their game against the Legionnaires (the plan was quickly abandoned after the many clauses of the NSMLB rulebook it violated was pointed out).
In the ancient halls of Jameston Place, P.M. Hiresh Dhawan crafted a carefully worded letter of support for Agrigento (original drafts had it addressed to the 'Corleone Administration', but that was changed after the internal debate in Agrigento over the president's policies came to light). P.M. Dhawan also crafted a letter to President Corleone filled with support for his administration, routed through Agrigento's ambassador the the New Highlands alliance (Roberto Di...Di...crap, I always forget his last name ;))
The first letter also offered what financial aid the Commonwealth could to bereaved Agrigentian families, despite some right wing M.P.s insistance that our war was stretching the purse strings a little too tight already.

Not just yours, everyones.
So, whazzup Agrigento? You'd best let Johnistan withdraw for your own safety, our air attacks alone put 20 Nianancian carriers on the bottom (What do you call 20 Nianancian carriers on the bottom of the sea? A good start!), and we have not yet used our main fleet for reasons other than air defense. We can ensure that certain allies brutalize you should continue violating the Geneva Convention (Just becuase we utterly ignore it doesn't mean you can!).

I remember the Johnistan Navy....
Not much of a navy, a small group of submarines sank on eof their entire fleets...
If I recall th esinking of the fleet was the last straw and Johnistan's leader went into a temper tantrum and abandon Southern SS Men....
Then the Comunist north came down and crushed the South... Heh kinda funny that 8 submarines destroyed an entire carrier fleet.
