The ACLM strikes are intercepted by SAMs ringing Maropian Coast, but two manage to get through, destroying one Smerch launcher and a small warehouse.

Bonstocknian Smerches start bombarding Taiwanese forces near the border. Taking advantage of their 90km range, 72 of them lob a volley at Taipei and Chaing Kai Shek airport.

In addition to the escorting F-36s firing upon the J-39s, the Bonstockian aircraft have to contend with a volley of SAMs.

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

As C-130 pilot Wen loses control of the aircraft, uncontrollable anger fills his mind.
"Bastards! You'll pay for this!"

He aims for the most dense area on the beachhead and closes his eyes.

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

PS: Moabs have some 18,000lbs of explosive. Even if it wasn't detonated right, it's still a helluva bAang

Taking advantage of the presence of the WIGs, 3 Bonstocknian wings of 54 new F-22s each take off, and head to attack the WIGs.

It will mark the first combat experiance of the F-22 in Bonstocknian service.

Meanwhile, 4 B-2 bombers take off from Maropian Coast, escorted by 54 of the new F-22s. The F-22s go on a SEAD sweep as JAS 39s continue to harrass enemy fighters. Before the B-2s get to their targets, the Raptors fire HARMs at every SAM site they can find. Then, the B-2s, flying at high altitude and taking advantage of stealth, come in unnoticed. They each drop EMPs all over Taipei and the surrounding area.

A whole company is destroyed by a C-130. A fire starts.

MEanwhile, Avenger SAMs form the rear come up. When the C-130s approach, they will fire, so that the pilot dies and his plane falls onto Taiwanese positions.

Meanwhile, F-22s get to the WIG areas. Two wings go after the patrolling fighters, firing at long range. Then the otehr wing launches its missiles at the boats.

12 BSS agents, in Taipei since before the war, take their SMGs and Russian clothes and go for a covert assault. Long before, when _Taiwan was Bonstock's ally, they found out the location of the Taiwanese Air Defense command bunker. They also figured out where its ventilation shafts came from. They placed bombs on those ventilation shafts in a secretive manner. Then they went back to their apartments, and remotely detonated their small bombs. Then teh EMPs fell.

So far, about 245 JAS 39s have been downed. Pilots have tried to parachute over the beachheads, but some decided to make themselves into missiles.

One aimed directly at the Taipei government buildings, and slammed into them.

Northwestern Honshu
It took mere moments for the Spyran forces to respond to the aircraft that had just torn apart a good chunk of their landing forces. Long-range SAMs were fired from launchers on Sado island, some thirty missiles screaming towards the enemy planes at supersonic speeds. Below, the 12.7mm machine guns of the Dai-hatsu boats opened up into the skies, hoping to hit the low-flying planes.

F-40 Falcon fighters, fifty in all, sped in from their air patrols over Sado and the blockade fleet, following the Bonstockian aircraft in low and began unleashing their payloads of missiles, starting with 4 AIM-120Cs as they reached medium range.

Meanwhile, from the combined Xiaguo-Spyr blockade fleet, another wave of sixty cruise missiles were launched at hardpoints along the shoreline, to weaken them before the landing troops made their assaults.

Off the coast of southern Honshu
The Spyran southern naval battlegroup moved along the coast of Honshu. Aircraft from the Phelot provided CAP over both the fleet and the advancing Islandian forces, while four dozen cruise missiles were launched at the points from which Smerch launches had been sighted, in an attempt to silence them.

Than it hapened. A lone spy sattilite passing over northern Japann snapped a picture of a whole LOAD of mobile BLOOD WAVE 2 ICBM launchers. Each one fully loaded with a single ICBM. Any sweep for radioactives would show that each missile had a single 1 megaton nuclear warhead... each missile was capable of striking all the way too western Africa.

-Hudecian Secret Command Post-

There was some panic as the satellite photos and radioactive readings confirmed the presence of nuclear warheads in N. Honshu. Generals and officers rushed around as report after report confirmed their worst fears.

Within a minute of the discovery, Hudecian nuclear silos were put on high alert and their nuclear ICBMs were armed. Hudecia only had 5 ICBMs, but to any satellite photos, there was only 2 nuclear silos in Hudecia.

-Communique to Bonstock-

It has come to the attention of Hudecia that there are nuclear weapons in N. Honshu. Should these weapons be used, Hudecia will not hesitate to strike back in a nuclear manner. Targets will include Bonstock proper, particularly Port Yuku. This will be your only warning should you deploy nuclear weapons.

-Sendai Line-

Without any knowledge of the nuclear find, the attack on the Bonstockian defences begins as over 1 000 M1A2 Abrams followed by over 6 divisions, hundreds of fighter-bombers, and over 150 pieces of artilery strike the Bonstockian line, already weakened by intense bombardment.

-Behind Bonstockian Lines- N. Honshu-

The troops landed in absolute silence during the night. The two brigades of troops disappeared into the rugged terrain. Their mission was to cause havoc.

-Tokyo- Yakusa Underground-

A group of shadowy figures meet.

"For too long these Bonstockian imperialists have ran Japan. They change everything, even preventing us from being able to operate our businesses. Now, all that is about to change. With the weapons that Hudecia has provided us we can take back our streets."

"Our men stand by. Our sources inside the police department have served us well. - I am wrong, the police department continues to serve us well." The shadowy figure smirked. One of the shadowy figures bowed deeply.

"The police department has always respected the 'independence' of the Yakusa. Now with police forced to patrol the street and Bonstockian troops enforcing the law your chimpira have been wrongfully harassed and even arrested. This will change..."

-Ginza Area- Police Patrol-

The two officers watched their Bonstockian 'handlers' closely. They had pointed them out to Yakusa agents a long time ago, and now the time for their death was at hand.

As they walked down the sidewalk, they nodded politely to two well dressed businessmen who walked by carrying a briefcase. They walked in a staggered fashion with one behind the other. Not unusual considering all the people there.

Then the back one pulled his Uzi and while the man in front dove to the ground screaming "Abunai!" The rear one let expended a clip firing on the Bonstockian troops who were following the police. After that they calmly helped each other up and calmly walked away, disappearing in the crowd.

-Exerpt from Tokyo Shimbun-

Yesterday, the Bonstockian occupational authority began construction of fortifications around Tokyo using forced labour. Wild protests erupted again in the Ginza and Akihabara sectors of town, still sore from the 'Ginza Massacre'. Also, the Yakusa today announced that it would begin a targeted campaign against Bonstock, attacking Bonstockian soldiers and 'those who support them'....

-Communique to Bonstock and Red Tide-

The use of biological, chemical, or nuclear weapons in this conflict is somethingwhich the People's Republic of Spyr advises strongly against. Such massively destructive weapons serve only to harm the civilian populace of the victim nations, and force a retaliation in kind, which can lead to nothing but the destruction of both sides.

Across Spyr, the extensive air defence net goes on full alert, supplemented by mobile missile-interceptor launchers and a saturation of interceptor aircraft in the air. Activity at Spyran ICBM silos increases dramatically

Sendai line
As the Hudecian assault begins, they are joined by the Spyran tank division, which rushes forward unleashing a hail of fire into Bonstockian defences. Twenty of the tanks are flametanks, unleashing sprays of sticky, flaming liquid into the Bonstockian trenches and pillboxes.

Behind the tanks, five thousand Spyran infantry rush forward to keep up the momentum of the assault, while Dragonfly helicopters (of which there are still a paltry six) unleash a hail of missiles into enemy emplacements and armoured units.

-Sendai Line-

Hudecian A-10s target armour units, APCs and anti air sites while Arrows drop 'Bunker Buster bombs' onto larger emplacements. Tomahawk missiles from warships pounded other targets in advance of the strikes.

And still the roar of artillery goes on, as the Hudecian troops move forward, in a well-planned assault.

12 BSS agents, in Taipei since before the war, take their SMGs and Russian clothes and go for a covert assault. Long before, when _Taiwan was Bonstock's ally, they found out the location of the Taiwanese Air Defense command bunker. They also figured out where its ventilation shafts came from. They placed bombs on those ventilation shafts in a secretive manner. Then they went back to their apartments, and remotely detonated their small bombs. Then teh EMPs fell.

Islandian agents in Taiwan, long tracking the movements of Bonstockian agents, follow them, awaiting a moment when they are off guard.

When t hat moment comes, car bombs are placed inside their vehicles and detonated.

******
Pathet Cong special forces in northern Honshu call in airstrikes to destroy the missile launchers. As they do, the First and Fourth Detachments (about 100 men in scattered groups of 10) of the 2nd Forward Shock Division are landed near the site of the ICBMs, with several vehicles, mortars, and plenty of explosives, and they begin to wreak havoc in the area. Bolstering hte Pathet Cong patrols, the men begin to raid near the launcher's storage areas, trying to destroy as many of htem as they could before the H9s arrived, escorted by two Brigades of fighters (about 50).

*****
The plane slams into Nozomi base and explodes; two ten thousand pound bombs were on the thing, and it blasts a huge crater in the airstrip. Meanwhile, mortars continue to rain on the base, and snipers take their time picking off whoever they see.

No ground forces have assaulted yet..

Four H9s have been downed near Bonstock and Maropian Coast; all crew (5 per plane) were presumed killed, as none were rescued.

Tokarev's forces have moved to cover the Spyran landings in North Western Honshu, and Islandian forces continue to push up from the South.
Cruise missile batteries, dropped to the Paracels and Spratlys via cargo planes.

Swift craft detachments begin raiding bases up and down the coasts (B, i take it that ur troops in the Paracels are still in place?) Twenty four more Swift craft detachments (around forty eight groups of fifty or sixty boats and catamaran raiders each) have been dispatched to bases near Bonstock, and are currently raiding the hell out of Bonstock. The other twelve are based near Japan, and support landings and suppress Bonstockian forces. Twelve more have been diverted to Taiwan, and the last few are in the Paracels and Spratlys. There are more than enough to engage and beat the hell out of wahtever boats Bonstock decides to send..

Airborne special forces land behind enemy lines in order to knock out Bonstockian targets (a full brigade from the Forward Shock Division, about two thousand in scattered groups of ten) as fifteen thousand pound bombs, ten of them, cascade into Bonstockian positions inland (about twelve km in) from all along the beach head.

The amphibious assault groups heading for Maropian Coast have turned around and executed a landing on Taiwan, between the border of Maropian coast and Taiwan, cutting off whatever Bonstockian forces remain in Taiwan and creating a perimeter against the advancing Maropian forces..

OOC: because several of the RPer's have exams the rest of us should slow the pace down and RP events one at a time, extremely slowly (like in the TV show '24'). So lets deal with the issue of Red Tide's nukes.

IC:
Day 1
-1027 hours-
Satellite takes a photo of Red Tide ICBMs in N. Honshu.

-1105 hours-
Hudecia mobilizes its ICBMs and sends a communique to Bonstock.

-1133 hours-
Spyr mobilizes its air defenses and activity at its missile silos increases. Comminique sent to Red Tide and Bonstock.

-1735 hours-
Hudecian interceptors in N. Honshu are put on high alert. A Los Angeles class sub and a Virginia class sub put to sea carrying 2 nuclear warheads.
An unmarked transport is loaded up with a nuclear warhead and leaves the capital city of Hudecia.

Taking advantage of the presence of the WIGs, 3 Bonstocknian wings of 54 new F-22s each take off, and head to attack the WIGs.

It will mark the first combat experiance of the F-22 in Bonstocknian service.

Meanwhile, 4 B-2 bombers take off from Maropian Coast, escorted by 54 of the new F-22s. The F-22s go on a SEAD sweep as JAS 39s continue to harrass enemy fighters. Before the B-2s get to their targets, the Raptors fire HARMs at every SAM site they can find. Then, the B-2s, flying at high altitude and taking advantage of stealth, come in unnoticed. They each drop EMPs all over Taipei and the surrounding area.

The B-2s are detected by AWACS before they enter Taipei (OOC: Not godmodding. The US can detect their own), and are targetted by dozens of ALRAAMs launched by B-380s hundreds of kilometres away. Three wings of F-36s recieves visual sighting and begins to engage the F-22s in dogfighting and BVR. Being lighter, "stealthier" and more manuverable (but less thrust) than the F-22, the F-36 would prove more than an equal match. With the SAMs on the ground still firing and quite a number of F-22s being detected by the E-380s, the advantage was to ROTAF.

(The ROTAF links it's patriot SAMs to AWACS instead of ground radars)

A whole company is destroyed by a C-130. A fire starts.

MEanwhile, Avenger SAMs form the rear come up. When the C-130s approach, they will fire, so that the pilot dies and his plane falls onto Taiwanese positions.

Meanwhile, F-22s get to the WIG areas. Two wings go after the patrolling fighters, firing at long range. Then the otehr wing launches its missiles at the boats.

Following the detection of enemy aircraft, the two other C-130s retreat. It would be suicide to continue without air superiority.

Before the F-22s can come into range,the wIGcraft fire 120 SM-2 ER missiles, with a range of 380km. AWACS would guide these missiles to their target.

The AMRAAMs fired at the F-36s have difficulty locking onto their small radar signatures, and almost all the incoming missiles are fooled by chaff or jammed. Two aircraft suffer minor damage, but fire off most of their BVRAAMs before they limp home. With Taiwan's advanced AWACS maintaining coverage over their area, most would be expected to hit (around 150 BVRAAMs).

(OOC: What missiles were fired at the WIGs?)

12 BSS agents, in Taipei since before the war, take their SMGs and Russian clothes and go for a covert assault. Long before, when _Taiwan was Bonstock's ally, they found out the location of the Taiwanese Air Defense command bunker. They also figured out where its ventilation shafts came from. They placed bombs on those ventilation shafts in a secretive manner. Then they went back to their apartments, and remotely detonated their small bombs. Then teh EMPs fell.

The bombs destroy the ventilation shafts, but engineers manage to build a replacement ventilator in a few hours, abeit out of rubber tubing.

So far, about 245 JAS 39s have been downed. Pilots have tried to parachute over the beachheads, but some decided to make themselves into missiles.

One aimed directly at the Taipei government buildings, and slammed into them.

The Presidential Palace partly collapses.

"We got a situation here!" balred the radio.

Mortars fell, causing a few casualties as men ran to the bunkers.

Snipers picked off a few, but there wee too many. Bunkers filled with troops, who shot machine guns and howitzers at the enemy.

18 F-22s took off, and started bombing the area where there were enemies.

32 men and 6 dogs walked into the woods. It was dusk, and there was still some light. But the men had NVGs. Dogs helped alert them to the locations of the East Islandians. Then the men closed in to shoot.

*Posting for E. Islandia* (EI TG'd me to do this - not a puppet state.)

The Bonstockian cargo ship is impounded at an uninhabited island on the rim of Tropical Paradise, then blown up after its men are given a chance to load into boats and paddle away. No enemy freighters are allowed in, via standard wartime policy, and all are destroyed and crew rescued...

Two divisions have landed on Taiwan and cut off all access to whatever escape the Bonstockians may have had... The other two assault groups head for Okinawa, while the former garrison itself heads for the Spyran beacheads and at beachheads further to the South, and lands there over the course of three days, (an estimated five divisions) protected by Tokarev naval forces and Islandian surface engagement groups.

Casualties for ships
8 submarines (attack) sunk in prowling ops
1 Zhou SSBN sunk, 2 heavily damaged
5 catamaran raiders sunk
8 frigate escorts sunk while escorting assault groups
5-8 small boats sunk
heavy damage to Maiden, a carrier, with flight deck rendered nonoperational and a reserve carrier in another surface engagement group taking full flight ops.

-Bonstock Defences near Sendai-

Troops and tanks overwhelmed the concrete defences already battered by bombardment and air strikes.

The few defenders make half-hearted attempts to stop the advance but soon either retreat, surrender or are killed.

Mines become the largest problem destroying 12 M1A2s before minesweepers are called in.

Casualties:
17 M1A2s
137 dead
219 wounded

OOC (to all): Couldn't RP for the last couple of days and won't be able to do so until Monday. _Taiwan can RP Sino's forces for me.

OOC (to _Taiwan): Thanks, mate! Do what it can to hold the line of Sinoese occupation for now. When Liu returns, it'll be a whole 'nother ball game.

IC 1: General Liu decides to fly back to Sino via Xiaguo's Hokkaido, due to some pressing needs back home.

IC 2:

A Sino military doctor exits from the lecturn, the place retaken by General Liu. General Liu decides to speak to his fellow soldiers before leaving (OOC: His leave was not announced publically due to a fear of downing morale).

"Gentlemen, just before I dismiss you all, I've got a few words to say. What Dr. Wen left out, I'll fill y'all in on the details. Remember boys, flies spread disease; so keep yours closed! Especially after a few days of hot fighting. Hey! It's alright to laugh."

The soldiers broke their steel silence and bursted into laughter.

===============================================

Supplies of more men, more vehicles and air craft continue to arrive from Sino, either by sea or air. The ARSNV Chiang Kai-shek (supercarrier) has been fully repaired in Xiaguo's Hokkaido and will be back in action shortly to help defeat the losers of Red Tide and Bonstock.

OOC (to _Taiwan): Use the Chinese WS-1s and A-100 MRLSs effectively.

===============================================

Operation Poisoned Arrows:

General Liu has authorized the launch of some 90 MRBMs from Sino's sector of occupation to strike at the airbases and other military installations in Bonstock's Maropian Coast (on Taiwan). This is purely an effort to help our compatriots in Taiwan defeat Bonstock's unlawful occupation and bastardization of Taiwan! China for Chinese!!!

Do not think that Sino's stock of BMs in Japann will be so easily depleted. More will arrive to ensure that the the lands of China is freed from the dirty hands of the aggressors.

As a warning to Red Tide; if they choose to deploy NBC weapons against the troops of Sino and her allies. Sino will retaliate such attack with greater strength as the people of Red Tide are nothing but bastards suitable for our NBC experimentation.

OOC-_Taiwan? Don't mean to get into other's problems, but you seemed to be having trouble with Bonstock back in taipei. Please respond to what the situation is? Just want to clear things up.

Why is that everyone's at least or yeah at least one governemnt building is destroyed, I'm still rebuilding my Congress Building!


-------Sendai Line--------
Troops continued to be battered upon and barely made it to Xiannese occupied bases. They regrouped and build the first Allied Controlled Airstip in Northern Honshu. Permanent bases are ready and bunkers has been setted up at defensive points. A careful planning of underground tunnels has been developed. ***A strategy used by Chinese Communists, Viet Cong, and Koreans during 1930's-1980's.



Xiannese ships re-positioned themselves and manage to oust out 7ships which are bound to Kyushu. There will be 2groups. 2ships, 3ships, group one will defend the opening to allow the second group to escape. The 2nd group will be scouting in the number of 3ships around the Easter couasts of Kyushu. Xiaguo is planning a drop off.

The landings had continued through the night with more expected to follow. More equipment and vehicles arrived by sea and air transport to pour into the Hakata Bay landing area. The tally of South Dalanian involvement was now:

-5500 infantry (marines+regular army)
-Two tank divisions (totaling 31 M2-A1 tanks)
-Humvees and APC's (totaling 150)
-Aircraft based on the two carriers (total of 400 deployable aircraft)
-Nine destroyers, two missile frigates, one heavy cruiser, two submarines
-Three helicopter gunship wings (totaling 60 aircraft total)

The forces deployed to Hakata initially split into two groups to assist on the varying fronts. One group, commanded by the able tactician, General Han Su Kim, headed to assist the Spyran forces in their efforts on the Sendai Line. The other stronger group headed to the area assigned to the East Islandians which was personally commanded by General Lee Kang Woo.

Young children dashed inside and mothers slammed their doors shut as the tanks and APC's of the South Dalanians passed. Each South Dalanian knew that they would not receive an entirely warm welcome from the Japannese. Although much of the war guilt had worn off in Japann, ethnic Koreans were an underclass here and not very well respected by the Japannese. Many of the South Dalanians themselves were not overly affectionate for the Japannese either, as they remembered the lessons of colonialism they had been taught as children.

Past history aside, they had come to help free their neighbors and they would carry their jobs out to the best of their abilities..

Two Sinoese tank divisions (with Type 98B MBTs), an air defence brigade (with HQ-9 SAMs and FT-2000 ARSAMs), an artillery division (equiped with WS-1Bs, A-100s, 152mms and 203mms) and two armored infantry divisions will now help to hold the Sendai Line. It is important that this line is to be held.

A Sinoese ballistic missile force (from the ARSSWF) of unknown strength will also be provided to assist our allies near the Sendai Line.


*Armed Republic of Sino Special Weapons Force

In Maropian Coast, 1440 Smerch M launchers waited. Some 288 of them started firing at the East Islandians, with guided rockets to destroy ships and troops ashore. Then 120 Visby class corvettes came out from Maropian Coast's harbors, and started firing missiles at the incoming East Islandians.

Then, in a move that would probably come to haunt Bonstocknian politics for years to come, and perhaps label Bonstock as a war criminal, 900 Smerch M launchers aimed their guided rockets at a civilian target: the cramped city of Taipei. First, 300 of the rockets fired at the approaches to the city, allowing troops of the 9th Airborne Divsion to sweep through. Then they encountered urban terrain of Taipei city. 600 Smerch M launchers started their rockets in timed salvos. One by one, whole blocks were annihilated by artillery rockets, and Bonstocknian infantry troops came to seize the blocks. Anything in the streets moving was shot at by 9,000 troops armed variously with automatic weapons, M-4 carbines, ATGMs, and grenades. As Smerches from Maropian Coast continued bombarding the city, troops advanced upon stunned civilians and dead soldiers, block by block, bombed out ruin of a house by bombed out ruin of a house. Artillery is used without discretion for collateral damage. BSS agents help target the artillery with precision. It was to be even worse then the night in Tokyo.

Meanhwhile, 6th Infantry Divsion's artillery starts pounding at Chiang Kai-Shek International Airport. The rest of teh Smerchs unleashed thier 300mm rockets on the airport, targetting bunkers and troop concentrations in preparation for the assault by the 6th Airborne Division.

Meanwhile, a transmission is sent to the Taipei government. Or what's left of it by this point.

President Chen,

Your government will be allowed to remain in power provided you adhere to the following terms. First of all, Bonstocknian sovreignty on the island of Taiwan must be respected, and you must agree never to violate it. Second, that your nation drop out of the war and do not aid either side. Third, _Taiwan must sign a non-aggresion pact with Bonstock, and agree never to violate the interests or sovreignty of the Federal Republic of Bonstock, Maropian Coast, and the Sakishima Islands. Fourth, that a demiliterized zone 5 miles wide exist between the borders of Maropian Coast and Bonstock. And fifth, that the _Taiwanese government will not block trade between Bonstock and _Taiwan, and agree to free trade with Bonstock.

If these terms are agreed to, Bonstocknian forces will withdraw from your nation. As a showing of our gratitude for the acceptance of this, we will hire a Bonstocknian company to help rebuild what our forces have destroyed, and provide medical assistance to the wounded.

Field Marshal Gustav II Adolph
President, Federal Republic of Bonstock, Maropian Coast, and the Sakishima Islands.

Another transmission is sent to all members of the Asian Resistance

Respected members of the Asian Resistance,

Bonstock has grow weary of this war, and believes that even our own slight gamble at imperialism is now overshadowed by that of our ally, Red Tide.

We don't seek to colonize Japann. Politically, there would be too many consequences. Japann has a larger population then Bonstock, and would terribly upset the balance of power in the Riksdag should it be made a territory. All territories of Bonstock must elect members to the Riksdag based on population. This includes Bonstock, Maropian Coast, and the Sakishimas. If Japann were added to the mix, the Riksdag would be no longer dominated by Bonstock proper, perhaps leading to a relocation of our capital. If that would happen, it would be Bonstock that would be Japann's colony.

Instead, we are content with rebuilding Japann into a more peaceful state with our principles of democratic rule. We don't seek a monopoly on doing this. We are willing to share the burden with our allies.

Bonstock did not want war in the first place. We were dragged to war by a terrorist incident which may or may not be attributed to a disgruntled ally. This ally has sought to undermine our attempts to rebuild Tokyo, and has made the job thousands of times more difficult by constantly attacking civilians who protest the occupation. We must keep 4 mechanized divisions in Tokyo to keep Red Tide occupation forces from turning on the populace.

This has placed a burden on the Bonstocknian efforts to rebuild the area. Ideally, we would keep our soldiers in barracks away from the civilian population, allowing Tokyo police to provide security and our private companies to rebuild, creating jobs for Japannese in reconstruction. However, the Red Tide occupational plan was not intune with our own. Through use of brute force their tanks control the streets. They attack innocent protestors, arrest dissidents, and deter attack through use of weapons of mass destruction, which we are urging them to remove.

We seek peace under these terms. Red Tide and Bonstock will supervise the reconstruction of Tokyo and central Honshu, provided that Red Tide forces are subordiante to Bonstocknian forces. Bonstock and Red Tide may each deploy no more then 30,000 military troops for the reconstruction, and at that they must be kept away in barracks to be used only if security deteriorates to the point of their use. The forces of Bonstock will consist of an Airborne Division, two fighter wings, and an air refueling wing, and an airlift wing, based at Narita International Airport, as well as support units for a flottilla of naval ships. Tokyo police forces will be used to patrol the streets, and Bonstocknian companies will have contracts to rebuild areas of our occupation. Bonstock will be allowed to maintain its territory in tha Asia Pacific region, including Maropian Coast and the Sakishima islands, provided that they have equal representation in the Bonstocknian Riksdag.

We belive that peace is possible.

Sinoese cruise missiles now assist in the attack on Maropian Coast following Bonstocks continual use of force on Taiwan. Over 90 cruise missiles have been launched by various ships and bases in the Sinoese zone of occupation.

At dawn, the ARSNV Chiang Kai-shek, the hulk of a vessel moves slowly out off it's shipyard, a heavy presence of security on land and water greets its recovery. Once the flagship always the flagship.

Although the number of aircraft aboard are scant, more are due to be flown in and take their place of honor aboard her vast flight deck.

OOC: That's all folks. I'll be back before you know it on Monday. Until then, to all my allies, keep kicking the enemy's ass!

"If you want to kick a tiger in the ass, you must first find a way to deal with his teeth."

- Tom Clancy.

And hears a message to to Bonstock's Governemnt from the Parliament of Xiaguo.

"To the Federal Republic of Bonstock,
With the respect of the Red Republic of Xiaguo, The National Party's Congress, the People's Cngress, and the Allies of so forth.
We believe war cannot be avoidable. It has begun with thousands of death and we will not let the brave die in vain for what they've done has afected the hearts of the world.
The invasion of _Taiwan has been brought forth the central headquarters of Taipeng and has brought to us in grave attention. Xiaguo demands Bonstock to withdraw all units from _Taiwan with all-do speed. The innocent lives of our Chinese brothers are lossed because of Bonstock's decision of bombarding a city way past the limits.
Xiaguo sends 32 ships from the ports of Hanhai, about 20 divisions, and 3cariers to the South China Sea. Xiaguo has also directed its missiles from Hern Gong toward _Taiwan to shoot at any Bonstock Positions.

We demand Bonstock at least to do so as in to take troops out of Taipei. Or to stop attacking Taipei NOW!

Signed,
All members of the Xiannese Parliament.
Except the Following, Generalissimo Yeh, in Honshu, and War and Defense Minister Wu Tse Min also in Hokaido.

Yes Sir, *Salutes General liu!*
Goodbye, see you on Monday, or, hear from you on Monday!
*Salutes again*

ooc: Sorry, Midterms...going crazy...umm...can someone catch me up on the last...idk 7 pages?

OOC: Firstly, how did your beachhead go from nearly dying under the strain of 24/7 airstrikes to mounting an attack on Taipei? Secondly, if your Smerches were within range of Taipei (90km according to army-technology.com), they would be blown up by air strikes very quickly.

Bonstock, can you please stop doing RF-style RPing? Your forces can't just appear within a stone's throw from my capital. There are border defences, aircraft, etc.

ooc: Sorry, Midterms...going crazy...umm...can someone catch me up on the last...idk 7 pages?

OOC: Don't bother, not much is there.

SUMMARY OF CURRENT BATTLEFRONTS
(for Agrigento, and likely to help all of us... not so much a summary as an explanation of what is currently happening.)

Japann

--Sendai Line (Northeastern Honshu)
Hudecian and Spyran forces (Xiaguo troops too, possibly, though Im not certain) are pressing into the fortified defences of Bonstock, attempting to overrun them and push southward towards Tokyo.

--Niigata Prefecture (Northwestern Honshu)
Spyran troops have begun to make amphibious landings on the western coast. They have come under heavy fire and several landing boats have been destroyed, but forces are slowly trying to push inland from the beachheads.

--Kobe-Osaka Line(Southeastern Honshu)
East Islandian troops are pushing northward against the Bonstockian fortified line, attempting to overwhelm them.

--Sagami-nada(the mouth of Tokyo bay)
Hudecian ships are blockading Tokyo, preventing enemy reinforcements or supplies from reaching the city by sea.

--Sea of Japan
Ships from Xiaguo and Spyr are blockading western Honshu, to prevent enemy reinforcements or supplies from reaching the coast by sea, and having the added consequence of supporting/protecting the backs of the Spyran troops landing in Niigata.

--North-central Honshu
Red Tide nuclear ICBM launchers have been sighted via satellite observation. Hudecian and East Islandian elite troops have been sent in by air, to try and eliminate this threat.
Also, the husband of the acting East Islandian leader was downed in northern Honshu, and is trying to make an escape with partisan assistance.

--Tokyo City
Red Tide forces recently fired on protesters, killing many. Bonstockian forces in Tokyo ae now being used to keep their ally from doing any more damage to the civilian populace. Local Yakuza are actively resisting the occupation.

_Taiwan

--Maropian Coast Line
Both Bonstockian and _Taiwan forces have been pounding the hell out of each other for days, with airstrikes, artillery, and pitched fighting. East Islandia and other allies have begun landing forces to support _Taiwan.

--Taipei City
Bonstock has been using a variety of methods, including saboteurs, to do damage in Taipei, culminating in the current combined rocket saturation/infantry advance which is ignoring the consequences to civilians (such as mass death) it is causing.

Bonstock

--Nozomi Airbase
East Islandian airstrikes and commandos are attacking this sercure Bonstockian test facility, in an attempt to destroy its contents.

--Port Yuko (and the rest of coastal Bonstock)
East Islandian air strikes and sea raids are targeting Bonstockian military-industrial shipping and infrastructure.

The Political Front

--Hudecia and Spyr have issued communiques warning of the dangers inherent in the use of NBC weapons in this conflict.

--Bonstock has issued peace settlement proposals, where it retains its pre-Japann War territories, gives up imperialist designs on Japann, controls central Honshu during the reconstruction of Japann (which it will help fund), gains a demilitarized zone between _Taiwan and Maropian Coast, gains free trade with _Taiwan, and assists in the reconstruction of _Taiwan.


And, while I'm posting...
Some geographic notes on the Spyran landings in Northwestern Honshu:
All are occuring along the coastline of Niigata prefecture, centered on the relatively flat-beach coastline just west of Sajo, with units also landing north around Niigata city and south around the settlements at Kashiwazaki and Naoetsu. All of these locations feature relatively flat, low shores, and long areas without rocks or obstructions, which adds up to make landing and offloading easier.

Bonstocknian forces will withdraw from _Taiwan when a ceasefire is in place.

ooc: yes, the Smerches are in range. They also have protection from more SAM sites then Taipei, and most of my planes have withdrawn to provide CAP. The air battle over _Tiawan is mostly who can get airsuperiority, not ground attack (unless you want suicide).

And its not my Marines attacking. You've just learned not to deal with the Bonstocknian paratrooper.

ic: Bonstock proposes these terms for a peace treaty:

1 Bonstock retains all pre-war territory, including Maropian Coast and the Sakishima islands.
2 Bonstock will pay for Japannese reconstruction in its zone of occupation, and will also provide disaster relief damages for Taipei. Bonstocknian companies will help rebuild Taipei.
3 Bonstock will withdraw all troops from _Taiwan
4 Bonstock will be allowed no more then 30,000 troops in Japann
5 All Bonstocknian troops not in Bonstocknian territory may be under control of the Asian Resistance Rapid Reaction Forces, and may be deployed anywhere in the world provided that the Riksdag is told within 24 hours via official diplomatic channels. After 7 RL days, Bonstock may veto the deployment and withdraw troops. This will be null if Bonstocknian troops are elsewhere during the call for deployment
6 Red Tide may station no more then 25,000 troops in Japann, and must be subordinate to Bonstocknian forces to prevent misuse of forces
7 Red Tide must pay damages for the massacres it commited, and publicly apologize for the loss of life.
8 Bonstock has free trade with Japann, _Taiwan, PRC China, and other members of the AZN Resistance
9 Bonstock be granted an observer status in the Asian Resistance.
10 Hearings be held for a Japannese constitution based on the old Japannese constitution, but slightly amended
11 Bonstock has responsibility for rebuilding the Japannese military, but all appropriations must be payed for by the Bonstocknian government until a tax system is developed in Japann, and all spending must be checked by the Asian Resistance to prevent price gouging by Bonstocknian companies.
12 Until a constitution and new Diet are in place, an interm leader will be placed in Japann, appointed by a consensus of the Asian Resistance.

By the way, we believe we have the perfect man for the job of interm Prime Minister.

Back when Bonstock was allied with the Asian Resistance against Japann, a Japannese navy officer, Rear Admiral Yoshihiro Hatanaka, defected to East Islandia. The Bonstocknian Navy recruited him to serve aboard the arsenal ship FRBS Grossbonstocknia, targetting locations in Tokyo. However, when the Great Bonstocknian Civil War broke out, he became a close aide to Admiral von Steuben, commanding the Free Bonstocknian Navy. He was present when Free Bonstocknian forces invaded rebel held Bonstock proper, and then became an advisor to Bonstocknian forces in Japann. He acts with terrible distain to Red Tide, and has threatened many times to stop advising us if we don't do something about Red Tide. He was among those who pressed for peace with the Asian Resistance. He currently resides in the Bonstocknian Sakishimas. Hatanaka was born in Tokyo 56 years ago, and has lived in Japann all his life.

(ooc: Which makes him way more qualified then the bumblef---s the US appointed for Iraq, who have never lived in Iraq, and probably would get shot if it weren't for US protection)

1 Bonstock retains all pre-war territory, including Maropian Coast and the Sakishima islands.

Didn't you conquer the Sakishima Is. during the war?


2 Bonstock will pay for Japannese reconstruction in its zone of occupation, and will also provide disaster relief damages for Taipei. Bonstocknian companies will help rebuild Taipei.

Bonstock will provide money for Taiwanese companies to rebuild Taipei - to do otherwise would be war profiteering for Bonstock.


6 Red Tide may station no more then 25,000 troops in Japann, and must be subordinate to Bonstocknian forces to prevent misuse of forces

NO! Abosolutely not! Red Tide should not be allowed to even see Japan.

-Sendai Line-

Hudecian forces are employing modified tanks to help clear the vast minefields that were placed by Bonstock. Hudecian minesweepers will be busy for the next month they project clearing the area.

Meanwhile Hudecian forces begin consolidating on the other side of the first line and preparing to move south to strike at the second line of defences. Satellite photos and scout reports indicate many Smerches launchers heavily embedded.

-Pacific Ocean-

The two subs continue on their paths, moving toward Bonstock. Their nuclear cargo bearing heavily on the minds of the sub captains.

As Bonstockian missiles who have evaded long range air defences fill the skies over Taiwan, hundreds of ATS7000 air defence units swivel their turrets to track the projectiles. Within minutes, thousands of SAMs are launched and four hundred Gatling guns mounted on the ATS7000 units open up, filling the sky with thousands of explosions and flak.

Meanwhile, H9s launch retaliatory strikes with twelve fifteen thousand pounders targeted at Port Yuko's cramped population centers. Buhkta Detachment's First and Second Echelons have been dropped into Maropian Coast, after a long ass blackout triggered by five consecutive EMPs delivered via submarine. WHile Bonstockian saboteurs may run wild in Taiwan, Islandian saboteurs will f*** up as many buildings and things as they can, even if Maropian Coast's defenses are reputed to be strong (they wont be as strong under a hail of fifteen thousand pounders dropped on their front lines). Meanwhile, 2 Islandian Marine divisions have landed on the Southern coast of Taiwan, and have sealed the border with MC (ooc will use MC as maropian coast from now on). MLRS from Bonstock have knocked out a light company (about twenty tanks) and killed about fifty Marines, the rest hunkering down in pre fabricated bunkers rushed in to create a new defensive line, with machine gun nests.

SSX1 tanks and IFVs fight the Bonstockians on the beachheads, turning them back meter by painstaking meter as they exchange fire on war ravaged Taiwan. In a fitful coincidence, a huge EMP is droopped nearby on Maropian Coast (one of many) and spreads to hit the forces nearby. The armor keeps fighting, using light signals and manual optical sighting and backup, EMP resistant systems to target, sight, move, and communicate, although only in rudimentary means as infantry forces sweep the beachheads behind the tanks and Zero Teams land on artillery positions with helicopters and heavy weapons, wreaking havoc and then retreating back.

While the Engineers on the taiwan front work, WZY531HS9 IFVs and Type 98S9 tanks begin probing attacks on the Maropian front, diverting forces, while H9s strike at second line defences, barely ten km from their fellow Islandian attackers.

J34s carry out airstrikes on Bonstockian Smerches, guided by special forces already in MC.

OOC
whatever happend to ur efforts to capture General Park? And my efforts to f&&&& up Nozomi Station? And your efforts to kill Premier Chai? And your efforts to use those little boats to shit us to hell? And that gay T1 thing, which we'll prob ignore?

The First Theatre Operational Maneuver Group is moving south towards Tokyo, and has reached Sendai. They are linking up with Allied Forces nearby.

Minefields are being negotiated at a rapid pace thanks to M1A2 Bangalores and Antipersonnel Obstacle Breaching Systems.

http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/munitions/images/2cmine_apobs.gif

And its not my Marines attacking. You've just learned not to deal with the Bonstocknian paratrooper

i gave taiwan two airdefence brigades. Thats 300 ATS7000 point defence units (think those roving apcs with stingers, onlyw ith extended range and a gatling gun on top), 80 FT2000 SAM units, and 50 Anshu XS9 SAMs (comparable in general performance to French Asters) per brigade. Thats plenty for a bunch of paratroopers.

********
Bonstock proper
MIRV ICBMs, loaded with EMP warheads, immediately rain down on the country's air defence systems. All are conventional munitions, and do little besides knock out electronics and blow up a few things here and there.

Nozomi Station
While the fires were still raging, Major An had his men detonate a portable EMP device (radius of two km) and the entire places' electronics systems failed, even portable NVGs, infrared scopes, and optical devices mounted on individual weapons, as well as radios and communications devices.
Unfortunately, theirs failed as well, and An had to have two of his men guide in an Agrigentian cargo plane by sight as the plane dropped off several men from Buhkta Detachment and several Carabinieri special units.
Sadly, the plane was blown out of the sky on its return trip, killing the entire crew.

Bolstered by the forces, An's men began to sneak in via pre dug tunnels (guess and hit, and this was what my men were working on over the past few days, which is why they didnt attack earlier) while another two men, to the outer fringes, set traps for any reinforcing Bonstockian troops with nasty watergel explosives and C4.
The Aggies brought some Bonstockian uniforms with them, and commandeered some vehicles from the town, and began to drive in, shouting and yelling over the radio to confuse the Bonstockians and give the illusion that they were Bosntockians...

of course, several teams ended up going in the wrong place (one ended up in a residential house), so only three teams of two each managed to make it into the base after following several routes.
***********

1 Bonstock retains all pre-war territory, including Maropian Coast and the Sakishima islands.

Didn't you conquer the Sakishima Is. during the war?

No. Japann lent them to the rebel Bonstocknians during the civil war for use as a base from which to attack Maropian Coast, where the last of government hideouts remained. There was a great battle for the islands, culminating in the destruction of the rebel invasion fleet at the hands of one ship, RBS Grossbonstocknia. Afterwards, the Sakishimas became Bonstocknian territory, and now they send representitives to the Riksdag. They also get billions each year in tourist dollars, and I think they like it.


2 Bonstock will pay for Japannese reconstruction in its zone of occupation, and will also provide disaster relief damages for Taipei. Bonstocknian companies will help rebuild Taipei.

Bonstock will provide money for Taiwanese companies to rebuild Taipei - to do otherwise would be war profiteering for Bonstock.

I conceed. I pay 50 bill. to Taiwan for his companies to rebuild.

*wires money*


6 Red Tide may station no more then 25,000 troops in Japann, and must be subordinate to Bonstocknian forces to prevent misuse of forces

NO! Abosolutely not! Red Tide should not be allowed to even see Japan.

While I agree wholeheartedly, I would rather not go to war with Red Tide. I'm not even sure Red Tide would agree to peace anyway. If Red Tide is forced out, he'll never agree to peace.

EMPs seriously damage Bonstocknian infrastructure, especially the IT industries. Rocket planes intecepting the bombers must have destroyed a few bombers, but are unable to prevent the new attack.

Diplomatic cables repeat the peace offer as amended

1 Bonstock retains all pre-war territory, including Maropian Coast and the Sakishima islands.
2 Bonstock will pay for Japannese reconstruction in its zone of occupation, and will also provide disaster relief damages for Taipei. Bonstock will provide _Taiwan with 50 billion dollars to rebuild.
3 Bonstock will withdraw all troops from _Taiwanese sovreignty
4 Bonstock will be allowed no more then 30,000 troops in Japann
5 All Bonstocknian troops not in Bonstocknian territory may be under control of the Asian Resistance Rapid Reaction Forces, and may be deployed anywhere in the world provided that the Riksdag is told within 24 hours via official diplomatic channels. After 7 RL days, Bonstock may veto the deployment and withdraw troops. This will be null if Bonstocknian troops are elsewhere during the call for deployment
6 Red Tide may station no more then 15,000 troops in Japann, and must be subordinate to Bonstocknian forces to prevent misuse of forces
7 Red Tide must pay damages for the massacres it commited, and publicly apologize for the loss of life.
8 Bonstock has free trade with Japann, _Taiwan, PRC China, and other members of the AZN Resistance
9 Bonstock be granted an observer status in the Asian Resistance.
10 Hearings be held for a Japannese constitution based on the old Japannese constitution, but slightly amended
11 Bonstock has responsibility for rebuilding the Japannese military, but all appropriations must be payed for by the Bonstocknian government until a tax system is developed in Japann, and all spending must be checked by the Asian Resistance to prevent price gouging by Bonstocknian companies.
12 Until a constitution and new Diet are in place, an interm leader will be placed in Japann, appointed by a consensus of the Asian Resistance.

Bonstock has declared a ceasefire for negotiations. Smerch launchers stop their brutal barrage of Taipei, which seems to be a pile of rubble. The 6th and 9th Airborne Divisions are now withdrawing to the beachheads, which are going to be withdrawn.

We ask that all downed pilots be returned to Bonstock.

OOC: Yeah... so the war is going to end, but this is what I've got ready eitherway...

OOC: OK... heres pretty much what I've looked into, though I'm not sure so I'll post my fleets where about and communications after some checks on these... it's not huge but it's substantial... Bonstocks numbers seem to suggest most of his navy in use where I am I not willing to put even half of mine into this situation (we don't need that many ships) so this will have to do.

Please note that all the above planes classifications are done for simplicity and have been modernised further with Iuthian technology, it’s just that making your own planes requires a lot of knowledge and I’ll be damned if I’m going to research that much for this war. So please, don’t say “the F18 is old and crappy, my super L337 fighters beat joo”… I would use the description “fighter” but that wouldn’t be very detailed, would it?

******
Premier Park mounted the steps to the Politburo's dais, pausing briefly to adjust her clothes. She glanced to the side briefly,a nd the nod from her security officer assured her that there were no saboteurs lurking, so she began her speech.

http://img.airspider.com/image//8039/315382_2.jpg

"Fellow citizens of Islandia and Asia, I bring disturbing news. Bonstock, which has so blatantly occupied Taiwan, has offered a so-called 'peace,' nothing short of a mockery of our power and sovereignty. They have called for the creation of a demilitarized zone, the continuation of Maropian Coast to be held in filthy, greedy, Bonstockian hands and the creation of a trade agreement with the Alliance.

"This will never pass. Not only did the Bonstockians slaughter entire populations and peoples, their atrocities were only surpassed by Red Tide, adn their greeed for land is well known. We must never let them take us, and we must fight on to the end.

"There will be no cease fire until Bonstock has been expelled out of Asia, especially our steadfast and valiant allies of Japan and Taiwan, and limited to Bonstock proper and the Sakishima Islands. We will not allow any backstabbing imperialist shit to share in the reconstruction of Japan, as they sent Islandian pilots to their deaths in the beginning by luring out Japanese fighters and setting them on our pilots, and we will not reward their cowardice by agreeing to their terms, nor will we mention peace as long as Bonstockian troops occupy Taiwan or Bonstockian soldiers rape Taiwanese women.

"We will stand by our allies, and we will never abandon them," Premier Park Hye-min pledged. She raised the golden willow leaf saber of the Golden Empress, who reigned nearly five hundred years ago. "In the name of our ancestors who hailed from every corner of Asia and the eastern world, I pledge to you that we will exterminate imperialism!"

Thunderous cheering arose, and Hyemin immediately felt sickened. She hated speeches, but they were essential to rallying wartime crowds, and Islandia had to win, with Bonstock buckling under the stress of three combined offensives.

Now, if only Sang-hee was here....

*******

Flight Leader Cui looked out his window, watching as the clouds of taiwan breezed past him. His flight of Islandian Techtronix V4X tiltrotors from the 4th Special Operations Air Detachment, was escorted by several J37s as they zoomed past the Bonstockian air forces. The five craft quickly landed amid sporadic artillery, and a perimeter had already been established by Taiwanese and Islandian troops.

"EVERYBODY ABOARD!" his loadmaster yelled, beckoning to the Taiwanese officials and their troops to get aboard. Cui's orders had come directly from General Sung, who in turn had her orders from the Acting Premier, and they had to get nearly five hundred or so personnel out of Taipei's capitol district before it was too late. They could be held by Bonstock as a negotiating chip, so best to leave before it was too late...

*****
Islandian troops landing from near the South begin to push upwards, with its advance echelons entering Taipei. The courageous troops of the Air Defence Force based in Taipei have been nearly annihilated, fighting alongside their valiant Taiwanese comrades in defending against vicious, unrestrained bombing carried out by Bonstock (in the tradition of Imperial Japan during the 1930s where they fucked and killed anythign that moved...)

The First, Thirty Fifth Urban Storm Brigades move in first, filtering into buildings and carrying the ROC flag next to their Islandian unit patches to distinguisht hem from the invading Bonstockians; they are quickly followed by the brunt of the force, saturated with elite, close quarters specialists used to fighting wtih barely enough space to breathe in. Tanks, artillery, and MLRS pieces shell Bonstockian entry points, and Zero Teams and Echo Detachment teams are dropped into Bonstockian positions to make life as hard as possible for hte invading forces, with a special focus on knocking out as many artillery pieces as possible (bonuses are given to all soldiers who have proof from doing so).

Meanwhile, tiltrotors and helos from the Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth Special Operations Air Detachments (based in PRC China) fly in and out of makeshift landing areas in Taipei, evacuating as many civilians and non essential personnel as possible. Airstrips are set up at unoccupied territory, and as many civilians as possible are flown away by the First and Second Heavy Lift Brigades, which were moved to PRC and Mainland China for this purpose. Fighter Divisions based in South China provide air escort and fighter sweeps, destroying as many Gripens and F22s as possible.

Chemical smoke and cluster bombs were used on Bonstockian artillery forces. Seeking out the location of the Smerch MLRS systems, four H9s drop a trio of fifteen thousand pounders each in a daring raid on MC territory (good luck surviving those).


******

A prisoner exchange, if agreed to, will be conducted. The AR will give all its Bonstockian prisoners, will promises not to fight against Azn forces in the future, back to Bonstock, should Bonstock send its prisoners back to their homes with promises not to fight against Bonstock in the future.

We treat all our prisoners humanely as possible, although they do get second dibs on everything.

*****
Casualties will be posted in a few hours, after i study.

Bonstock has declared a ceasefire for negotiations. Smerch launchers stop their brutal barrage of Taipei, which seems to be a pile of rubble. The 6th and 9th Airborne Divisions are now withdrawing to the beachheads, which are going to be withdrawn.

We ask that all downed pilots be returned to Bonstock.

"We'll talk once Taiwan is free of Bonstockian troops (and as soon as he gets back online). It will not be the first time that Bonstock has betrayed us, and I doubt it will be the last," Foreign Minister Qiao replied. "But we will conduct a prisoner exchange, to be hosted by a neutral country."

*****
OOC i estimate you have about a hundred or so pilots and crew, and two hundred fifty-350 troops you captured during ur Lunar New Year offensive.
And my post earlier was written before i saw wut u wrote, so thats like hours before you announced the pullback. Still, forces remain in place and on alert.

SAMs and rocket planes rise to intercept the H-9s, as Bonstocknian airborne troops withdraw to the beachheads. Slowly, with most of 6th and 9th Airborne, the beachheads start to collapse.

But the mission was acomplished. _Taiwan was taught a lesson that it would regret.

The ships start moving back to Bonstock. LCS ships come to esort them, bypassing the East Islandians.

The peace was repeated. Again.

Meanwhile, a small stealth minisub from Maropian Coast arrived in Yokohama, and got some passengers. It then proceeded to East Islandia.

The BSS men landed in East Islandia. Dressing as civilians with their fake IDs, they came into Hu'kasa, scoping out the hospital where their target lay.

Meanwhile, as the Bonstocknian forces sealed off the area, the small special operations detachment went in, raiding the home of a Japanese man suspected of sheltering downed pilots. The man was asked in Japannese who came to his house and where they went.

-Hudecia-

The government of Hudecia is willing to entertain some talk of peace, but no ceasefire will be put in place while peace talks go on. Hudecian troops will continue their offensives until the peace treaty is signed.

-N. Honshu- South of Sendai-

Reinforced by Agrigento, Spyr, and Xiaguo troops. The offensive continues to plow southward with the largest air cover seen in any length of time. Hudecia commits over 200 MiG 29s to protecting the assault force as well as 75 attack helicpters. The assault force links up with the 2 brigades dropped behind enemy lines and moves forward.

The defensive network of Smerches looms before the assault force but Hudecian fighter bombers are preparing to reduce the network to rubble.

OOC
its a lot easier to get off at another island and come to Hukasa

IC
"Sang-hee," she said softly, turning in the darkness. Hyemin twisted, and bolted upright in bed, pistol already in hand, panting, her nightdress undone. She quickly slipped the buttons back on and put her head against the wall, panting heavily.

The dream had felt so real, so vivid...could it be that General Park was captured by the Bonstockians?

She frowned. Hyemin would not put anything below the repugnant bastards, and she certainly did not feel that she would be going back to sleep tonight.

Her buzzer beeped. "Premier, please come down to the security room right away," the voice of the ensign on night watch asked.

She keyed the comm and told them she was on her way.

She got dressed and walked out of her room, motioning to the comm officer on night watch. Her bodyguards, two quiet, beautiful women from the Shang Guards Regiment, followed her silently, so unlike her former companions, who were quite noisy but full of life and vibrant.

An hour ago, General Shun had checked the status of the security network in Islandia, and made her officers run a thorough check, running through more data than they had officers to decipher. But within an hour, they found something; a small magnetic fluctuation had been picked up by a sensor posted in Shei-lu Bay, near the outlying island of Pai Chuang, not very far from Hu-kasa, but just out of range of the capital's defence network. The sensor itself was not very important, nor were that type of sensor particularly reliable, but anything was bound to happen during war.
Pai Chuang was a small tourist resort, and any infiltrators would not be realized so quickly, wiht the regional police having enough on their hands as it was, Hyemin realized.
"Lock down the capital," she said. "I want no ships leaving, nothign entering. Same goes for the outlying regions as well; call out the Second Flag Corps, and find out the fluctuation. If its an innocent boat, board it and check. If its not, then you know what to do."

THe men saluted and ranoff to their respective stations. Within forty minutes, all reserve units had been called to maximum readiness, and patrol catamarans began to scour the bays. Soon, the entire country, but especially Hu-kasa, was crawling with soldiers dressed in mottled green gray fatigues, spidersilk/kevlar/biogel flakvests, and paramilitary police in black and white urban camoflage.

***
The H9s unleash their cargo at the point, but one is hit before they can finish their run. He takes the H9 to the ground, straight into the densest Smerch station, and explodes, the full force of three fifteen thousand pounders and aviation fuel, as well as four Anshu X9 AAMs taking their effect on the surrounding area.

Two others are soon shot down, one over MC territory and the other bails over the ocean, picked up by CSAR teams. A hundred J37s and fifty J10NX5s begin a full fighter sweep with fifty J34s in Wild Weasel configuration over MC territory.
*********

Park ran through the woods, panting. They had already made about twelve km south, and they were joined by two more soldiers, dressed in civilian clothes this time, and driving a truck. THey loaded into the vehicle, and passed around more ammo and weapons, in case it was needed.

Their RV point with a tiltrotor from the 4th SOD was ten km away, and they would have to travel for a bit on the main road before getting off a small dirt road to get to there, which was secured by about thirty partisans and SOFs.

The People's Republic of Spyr wonders if any candidate proposed by the imperialist power Bonstock can truly be considered a leader for the people of Japann, and wether Bonstock's suggested solution can be trusted to be in Japann's best interests.

We suggest a different vision of the future after this conflict is brought to a close:

Administrative Districts
We put forth that Bonstockian administration of central Honshu, and of a reconstructed Japannese military, is utterly unacceptable. Rather, we propose a division of Japan into administrative zones based on the existing prefectural structures. Within each zone, the responsible power would coordinate reconstructive efforts and provide assistance in stabilizing and improving the lives of the Japannese people.

XIAGUO: Hokkaido, Aomori, Akita, Iwate.

AGRIGENTO: Yamagata, Miyagi, Fukushima, Tochigi, Ibaraki, Chiba.

SPYR: Niigata, Gunma, Saitama, Yamanashi, Kanagawa, Shizuoka, Nagano.

HUDECIA: Toyama, Ishikawa, Fukui, Gifu, Aichi, Shiga, Mie, Kyoto.

EAST ISLANDIA: Wakayama, Nara, Osaka, Kagawa, Hyogo, Tottori, Okayama, Okinawa*.

BONSTOCK: Tokushima, Kouchi, Miyazaki, Hiroshima.

_TAIWAN: Kagoshima**.

SOUTH DALANIA: Shimane, Yamaguchi, Fukuoka, Oita, Ehime.

We also propose that the remaining prefectures, Saga, Nagasaki, and Kumamoto, be administered by a regional ally of the PRS, the Kingdom of Tord. They have not participated in this conflict as of yet, as they are a highly pacifist people, but their expertise in delivering aid (as well as their peaceful spirit) would likely have a positive effect, and distribute some of the financial burden of reconstruction.

*OKINAWA: The Ryukyus have been a source of contention at various points in history, and thus while geographically closer to _Taiwan, we believe it would be wiser to have them administered by a non-Chinese power until the people of Okinawa may determine their own political future.

**KAGOSHIMA: _Taiwan, due to requiring reconstruction of its home territories, shall bear a much lesser burden in the overall Japannese reconstruction program, and thus administers only one prefecture.

RED TIDE: Red Tide has proven itself to be overly cruel and heavy handed towards the peoples of Japann, and thus should not be allowed to admnister them. Red Tide shall be expected to pay reparations for all damage it caused to the Japannese people during the conflict.

SINO: While Sino supported the war against imperialism in Japann, aiding in pushing back Bonstock, their past actions indicate some difficulties. They have a history of anti-Japanese statements (some quite racist in nature) and of severe actions (the launch of missiles against civilian targets in Kajiraki during a political dispute), and thus the PRS feels it would be better if Sino did not administer a district in Japann, but rather provided limited assistance to allied powers as needed.

TOKYO: The Tokyo municipality, capital of Japan, should itself be divided into administrative zones, centered around notable districts as follows:

Spyr: Hibiya, Akasaka, Marunouchi.
Agrigento: Ginza, Nihonbashi, Jinbocho.
Xiaguo: Yanaka.
East Islandia: Shibuya, Minami-Aoyama, Roppongi.
Hudecia: Shinjuku (East and West), Harajuku.
Bonstock: Akihabara, Inaricho.

Government
Since Japann already has a fully-functional structure of government, complete with elections, there is little need to make any changes here. The PRS suggests the restoration of the postwar constitution, with the following changes.

1) The Imperial Hosehold Agency be included in government bureaucracy, and the entire bureaucracy be subject to stringent access-to-information protocols.

2)The pacifist sections of the constitution are to be respected, and no power shall repeat the actions of the USA in demanding Japannese rearmament for Cold War purposes. Spending shall be brough from its current 4% of GDP, back down to 1%.

3) Reconstruction shall occur via companies bidding for contracts, judged by Japannese authorities on cost and quality. These contracts shall be open to all bidders, without restriction, and shall include contracts for military reconstruction.

4) A provisional council, consisting of two individuals from each involved foreign power (Xiaguo, Sino, Spyr, Bonstock, Agrigento, East Islandia, _Taiwan, Hudecia, South Dalania), the Emperor of Japann, and Japannese political party representatives based on the last election results, shall meet to discuss reconstruction policy and contracts, voting on each issue. An election shall be held, using the last census and existing electoral structures, 365 days after the end of hostilities.

5) Japann shall sign mutual nonaggession pacts with all involved nations, and all nations (including Japann) shall sign a peace treaty to end the conflict.

Red Tide
Whil we do not believe that Red Tide can successfully integrate into any postwar administration, a declaration of peace must have ome benefit to them as well. Thus, we suggest that, should peace be agreed to, ALL Red Tide forces be allowed to depart Japann, with their equipment, so that they are not lost to Red Tide. If, during a War Crimes tribunal, Red Tide officers are found guilty, a request shall be issued asking for them to be turned over, but otherwise no action shall be taken (such as kidnapping raids or assasinations).

We'll talk of peace later.

East China Sea
As soon as the Bosntockian ships leave Taiwanese waters, Islandian ships and planes attack the Bonstockian convoys, firing hundreds of scramjet missiles and torpedoes at them. They will not let war criminals get away so easily.

Prisoners arrive at points in PRC China, under heavy guard, awaiting the prisoner exchange.

OOC
im gonna go study now, and resist the temptings of the computer.

Over diplomatic channels, the Riksdag delivers this statement.

Transmission

To: East Islandia
From: Bonstocknian High Command
Subj: We want peace

We did not seek war in the first place. We are not buckling under pressure. Bonstocknian forces will hold any attack with utter tenacity. We will not surrender Maropian Coast or the Sakishimas, and we will not surrender our right to rebuild Central Honshu.

But we have grown to fear our ally, Red Tide. They are the ones pillaging and destroying. Bonstocknian forces are withdrawing from _Taiwan now, and we have shown our old ally not to cross us. We will cease our Smerch bombardment of _Taiwan, and pay 50 billion US Dollars to help rebuild the city, to show our forgiveness to that nation. We figure that we can move on from our differences with _Taiwan, our friend and ally for many years. We wish to go back to the way it was, when _Taiwan was Bonstock's ally.

In a sense, our imperialism stemmed from a displacement of the Bonstocknian population. We sought to move from our old homeland, and seek a new one. When we heard Japann was at war, we joined in so we could take it after the war, and settle there our population.

Then we found our homeland in Wysteria. We seek not to abandon it.

Bonstock will stop its efforts to colonize Asia. But we fear Red Tide's ambitions cannot be stopped.

We are attempting to get Red Tide to sign a peace agreement. If that does not happen, we fear the war could escalate to a great level. We do not want this to happen.

We will retaliate greatly if the war escalates to this level. But we must work for peace before it happens.

Our forces will be on the defensive. We demand an official response. Or the consequenses will hound future generations to the end of Earth.

We will withdraw Marine forces from Kochi and Miyazaki. We will rebuild the following prefectures:

Ibaraki, Chiba, Tokyo, Saitama, and Kanagawa.

Our forces are going to make sure that we have responsibility for these areas. We fought and bled for them at the hands of the Japannese government, and we will make sure they are under our rebuilding jurisdiction.

We agree to Red Tide being kicked out.

Meanwhile, Bonstocknian Smerches move away before being bombed. Planes continue harrassing the H-9s. Then ABLs rise up, and start shooting at the H-9s.

Bonstocknian convoys are protected by AEGIS LCSes, which intercept and destroy most missiles. But still, 5 ships are blown out of the water. Their crews are rescued as the ships continued on to Maropian Coast.

ooc: what are the specs of the H-9?

Regardless of who fought whom where, this is not about stationing permanent troops there. The government of Hudecia does not believe that any foreign nation should station troops there for any period of time without the permission of the elected Japanese government.

The interim government will be picked by the AA, not Bonstock.

As well, we do not feel that it is the place of Bonstock to dictate where they will rebuild. The Asian Alliance is doing you a favour, not the other way around. If you wish to continue this war then you will be destroyed.

Under no circumstances should Bonstock have a monopoly on control over Tokyo and surrounding area. And if you want more of your soldiers to die fighting a losing battle over it then we can oblige you.

-Hudecian Broadcaster-

"President Honatava used her powers after enacting the War Measures Clause, to begin the conscription process. However, Honatava promised that conscripts would only be made to serve in home defence units, freeing up volunteer units to be sent to Japan. Opponents promised to protest the move, but the recent assassination has galvanized public opinion polls in favour of war."

"In Pila harbour today, 10 AOR transports returned home only to begin loading more troops onto them. The 4th and 5th Armoured Divisions will join the rest of I Corps already in Japan. 2 brand new Halifax class destroyers were put to sea today and will be sent to escort the AOR transports on their journey to Japan but expect little difficulty."

Specs of H9 are in my storefront, gave u the link a while ago.

Oh yeah, and midterms be damned. It's only math anyway, and I'm f***king that course badly, so i'll rp a bit before sis takes computer.

oo.. pretty... wonder who i should make her...
http://fumina.hothost.tv/fumina_hara163.jpg

And its twelve fifteen thousand pounders! HOW FAR CAN YOU GET WIHT SUPERSONIC BOMBERS STREAKING ACROSS YOUR AIRSPACE AND BOMBING THE SHIT OUT OF YOU?!
Thats it, im f**king taking back my casualties since you wont take f&&king damage at all. (snaps fingers and H9s instantly return from the grave).

Where there is a will, there is a way.

********
As the H9s return to their staging bases in PRC China, covered by J37s and J10NX5s who are more htan ready to own Bonstockian fighters, Special Operations Forces on the ground are given the order to execute the war criminals who man the rockets. Failing that, five Zhou class SSBNs and two Huan SSBNs are ready to deliver their payload of fifteen thousand pounders onto the Smerches.

Smerch Position
MC

Twenty men from Buhkta Detachment fired ATS missiles and mortars at the Smerches, and snipers pick off the crewmen (look back a few posts, where i infiltrated MC).
While the explosives were falling, men crept closer to the launchers, armed with satchel charges, HE grenades, and watergel explosives.
If 15000 lb bombs wouldnt destroy them, a handful of SOFs would. If a handful of SOFs couldnt, then more bombs would.

Either way, murderers would not be let off the hook.

********

Communique from East Islandian government:

You suppose we dont want peace? What person in their right mind wishes for war?

You will not surrender Maropian Coast, and we will not surrender Taiwan. Insofar as we see it, the war was started by your forces, prompted by your leaders, who sent three hundred submarines to blockade our ports and force us to submission. Since we met you, we have only found dastardly tactics, trickery and deceit, and more than our share of incidents with your nation. We have had to react, sadly, instead of making you respond to our overtures, and even now, as we speak, your special forces creep and sneak through our agents, and your security service hirelings are confronted in dark alleyways by Special Police. True, we have infiltrated your holdings also, but we will withdraw our SOFs after we either kill all the Bonstockians illegally in our country, or you decide to pull them out. It is your choice.

We will not invade your homeland, and we'll leave your islands in a reasonable amount of peace for now, but Maropian Coast is a threat to Taiwan. From now on, with permission of the government there, we will station enough forces to make your life a living hell should you try to invade any part of Asia again. We will not invade Bonstock proper, since that itself would be imperialism, and we will not seek to dominate you through any ways, which is more than can be said for you. But we will keep you at arm's length, and we will retaliate with all means possible if you decide to break your word again.

You want peace? Prove it. Return our soldiers to us, and we will return your troops to you, and perhaps that will be a start. We wil halt offensive operations, but once we see any sign of repairing damaged bunkers or moving any more weaponry into place, we will destroy your lines in a matter of hours. Where you will rebuild, that is not for you to pick; we will ask the people of Japan, and we will seee waht they feel.

It is not our custom to reward traitors and backstabbers; Bonstock participated in a minimal role in the war against Japan, and it is not for them to dictate where they will go and wont go. You will, however, pay for the damage incurred by your rampant bombing in Taiwan, and you will move ALL missile batteries, or we will destroy them for you and consider that moving.

Perhaps there is a place for us against Red Tide. But you-Bonstock, who has murdered, backstabbed, and betrayed us-you are in no position to ask for peace. Give us back ALL of your captives taken from Alliance forces, and we will do the same, and perhaps we will take it from there.

But dont rest assured yet. We are technically still at a state of war, and we still need to confer with Taiwan, who has been most grieviously wounded by your imperialist actions.

*****
Offensive operations and shelling have been halted, but aircraft and aircrew are put on a minute's notice. Fighters still patrol the skies, armed only with HARMs and various AAMs, daring Bonstockian planes to come out and reciprocate. Artillery pieces have been camoflaged and dug in, and covered with thermal masking in order to hide their positions. Antiair troops shoot down any planes in the sky not bearing Alliance markings, and more rapid response SOFs, stationed in PRC China, are alerted to be to be infiltrated into Bonstockian positions at a moments notice.

Park Hyemin's face flushed bright red, and she put down the phone, ignoring the questions of the caller.

She turned to General Sung's image over hte videoconference. She could barely speak, and she seemed to choke on her own voice.

"Is it true?" she whispered through clenched teeth. "Tell, me the story Minlee. What happened?"

"I'm sorry Hyemin," she said sadly. "General Park boarded one of our tiltrotors in a clearing in Honshu, but they were ambushed by Bonstockians. The tiltrotor was shot down and we have lost contact with them."

Hyemin sighed heavily and leaned her head against the wall.

A drop of clear liquid slipped down her face, and she quickly wiped it off. She needed her friends right now, but they were halfway across the ocean, fighting and dying while she was at home.

But maybe Sang-hee wasnt dead; maybe he was still alive...
No. Whatever hte case, she had to keep on fighting. That would be what he would want her to do, to keep going on without him.

"Hyemin?" Sung asked in Korean. "Are you ok? Hyemin? Talk to me!" Her voice took on a worried tone, slurring her thick Korean accent even more.

"No, nothing," Hyemin said, rubbing her eyes. "Thank you for the news, and I am sorry about those of your men who died trying to bring Sang-hee home."

"No, it is nothing. Just...we will keep searching. General, lieutenant, ensign, if they are on our side we will bring them home, body bag or not," Sung replied. Her words felt hollow to her ears; she simply couldnt think of anything else to say..

Hyemin straightened and smiled, regally, sadly at her Pacific Forces commander. "Keep fighting, Minlee. And stay alive..I heard there's an officer from Dalania who's gunning for you..."

Minlee turned red and began sputtering. Hyemin hit the cutoff switch before she could finish, and sank to her knees, crying heavily. Outside, her bodyguards stayed where they were, sadness engraved into their features.

*******

But Park Sang-hee was still alive. The tiltrotor had crashed and was a flaming ball of wreckage, but he had managed to pull out two men before it did. They could both walk, but his wounds werent feelign so good. In fact...

He fell to the ground, blackness enveloping his senses. He had lost too much blood and had not got enough rest, so the two survivors, one of which was an SOF, pulled him up and the three set off to the nearest town, forty km away, as fast as they could walk....

triple post, so i will do this instead:

-Hudecian Parliament-

President Honatava's petit figure climbed up to the front of the room to begin her speech.

"Honourable members of parliament, Speaker, and people of Hudecia, I stand before you in this troubling time to ask for your support."

"Bonstock has admitted their imperialistic intentions and seeks to make peace. However, I do not believe that peace should come unless it is negotiated on OUR terms."

"Bonstockian missiles have leveled Taipei. The casualties are unknown but are expected to be .... apocalyptic. I believe the only true response to such atrocities is to bring Bonstock to our terms."

"We will never accept Bonstock or Red Tide authority in Japan. We will never condone the positioning of their troops there. Japan is an independent nation and should be treated as such."

"Red Tide has stationed ICBMs in N. Honshu. If these forces are not removed immediately we will remove them forcibly. Any attempt to launch these missiles either at Hudecia or our allies will fail and will result in the .... neutralization of Red Tide."

"We cannot be bought, we cannot be stopped, we cannot fail, we cannot be defeated, we cannot waver. Thank you."

The Spyran government stands by its proposal for the reconstruction of Japann. With the extensive pre-existing infrastructure, it is our belief that non-Japannese pesence in the governance and reconstruction of Japann can be completely removed within one year, following the election of a new Diet by the Japannese people, and the rebuilding of vital infrastructure. Further assisance may be required for such tasks as landmine removal, but it is our hope that, with the cooperation of all involved governments, foreign presence can be withdrawn in less than 365 days, and even during this period it can be minimized, with normal administrative and decision-making functions being left in the hands of the existing Japannese prefectural and municipal administrations.

Sendai line
The Spyran troops, confidence bolstered by the sheer magnitude of their allies' forces, redouble their efforts to reach Tokyo, assisting in clearing mines and booby-traps from key corridors through which forces can advance.

Niigata Prefecture
As allied troops, ships, and planes arrive to provide some assistance in the landings, the number of Spyran fighters in the area increases, dogfighting any enemy craft attempting to destroy the incoming boats. Forces on the beachheads begin employing RPGs and the grenade launchers underslung on their rifles to put increased pressure on enemy hardpoints. Where they enter enemy defences and engage at close quarters, they employ their bayonets and buckshot canister grenade rounds to maximize inflicted damage.

OOC: The point you should have made a post saying they crossed into Taiwan, instead of "They appear next to Taipei and begin firing" BS Rping, like how I've done with my WIGcraft moving out to the ocean. Seeing as it's too late, I'll let it slide but in the future anymore RF-style RPing will recieve an ignore.

IC:

Now within range of the Maropian Coast, the sixty-strong fleet of WIGs begin the largest surgical strike the ROTN has ever attempted; 7,200 Supersonic cruise missiles aimed at Maropian naval facilities, airports, airbases, oil refineries, oil storage depots, telecoms, power facilities, railroads, government buildings, ports, and reservoirs. Merchant shipping was also targetted by air dropped Harpoons.

From Tainan, twelve S-900 WIG transporters and three wings of F-36s make their way to join the fleet.

State of the Republic Address
Villa Presidenziale, Sicilia, Agrigento

" [...] We stand at a crossroads today. The nation of Bonstock, which has been our bitter enemy for quite some time now has offered peace, and many of the denizens of this nation would like to such an agreement ratified. I cannot, and will not, in good conscience, sign such a document. I am weary of Bonstock's hollow promises. They have betrayed this great nation before, I will not let them do it again. We will stand hard and stand fast with our allies, we will never give in, we will never abdicate or equivocate. Has long as the oppressive regime of that trouble nation threatens the sanctity of the free world, we will never stop. So, I speak for the Government of Agrigento, the Senate of La Repubblica d'Agrigento, and for the people of Agrigento when I say to Bonstock, 'We will accept nothing short of your complete removal of all military forces from Japan, Taiwan and Maropian Coast."

"Premier Park!! Premier Park!" the cluster of reporters yelled as they gathered around the Imperial Palace today, suprising her as she walked down the steps, to attend the funerals of several posthumously decorated soldiers.

"IS it true that you lied to the Islandian people days ago when you said that your husband, General Park Sang-hee, lost his arm and was in intensive care? Is it true instead that he has been captured by the Japanese?'

"Premier, is it true that you are planning to take over the government permanently, especailly since Premier Chai has been incapacitated-"

"IS it true that you plan to deny the peace treaty because of your husband's capture, and possibly death, at the hands of the Bonstockians?"

The last question cast a lull over the reporters, as one of them reached out to chastise the man who asked it. The man was a correspondent for CNN, and he made his way to the front, repeating his question.

Park punched him in the face, putting all her weight behind it, and sent him flying from her blow, her body finely conditioned from years of taekwondo and Islandian sariya (native martial arts).

"Know your place," she said to them plainly, ignoring the shock ontheir faces. "Yes, I did lie to the people, and I now admit it to you: my beloved husband, General Park Sang Hee, commander of Joon Brigade, 1st AFD, has been downed over Japan and presumed killed. In his death, I will mourn, but I will resume the duties of the Premier within a day, as Premier Chai has been incapacitated.

"Any more questions?" she asked. SInce no one replied, she nodded to them and went off into her car, an armored Agrigentian made limousine, escorted by two sports cars, two minivans, and four motorcycle riders from the Special Police.

They sped off to the funeral site..

Inside, Park thumped her fist against hte wall, ignoring the fierce pain that welled up. "Who the hell leaked that? That just killed my credibility!"

General Shun stared in silence. "Probably someone from Sze Mon (Four Gates, a pro-peace super liberal bleeding heart party that makes liberal bleeding hearts look bad) who decided they wanted peace and not women rulers."

"But they're liberals," Park objected. "That doesnt work very well.."

*********
Four councilors in Sumenya Hall, the Islandian legislature, from the Sze Mon faction, have sent telegrams to Bonstock, via secure transmission, detailing news of General Park's downing and a list of various locations where he may be at.

The most probable location was near Islandian front lines in Nagoya, where he was last seen (via Sat-int lifted from a 'borrowed' satellite.

******
The SOFs raiding the Smerches run back to the cover of the hills, taking three dead with them as Agrigentian made munitions, modified to be deployed via airplane, drop onto the Smerches positions.

"All overtures of peace were vaporised in a cowardly attack on civilian targets by Bonstockian units. That is all."

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

Naval defences around the country are now being increased at break-neck speed, with hundreds of units of anti-ship missiles and SAMs stationed.

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

The Taiwanese government will be sending one of the most knowledgable politicians to administer it's Japannese territories. He is also preparing to run for Prime Minister in the next election. He is Taiwan's (then Republic of China) previous President, Lee Teng Hui (now retired)

Lee Teng-hui was born in Sanchih, near Taipei, Taiwan when the island was still a colony of Japan. Growing up under Japanese occupation, he developed an affinity for Japan. Lee—one of only four Taiwanese students in his high school class—graduated with honors and was given a scholarship to Japan's prestigious Kyoto Imperial University.

In 1978 Lee was appointed mayor of Taipei, where he solved water shortages and improved the city's irrigation problems. In 1981, he became governor of Taiwan Province and made further irrigation improvements.

As part of his efforts to hand more authority to the bensheng ren (or native Taiwanese), Chiang Ching-kuo nominated Lee to become his Vice President. Lee was formally elected by the National Assembly in 1984.

In January 1988, Chiang Ching-kuo died, and Lee succeeded him as President. The hardline faction of the KMT, headed by General Hau Pei-tsun, deeply distrustful of Lee, threatened a coup. With the help of James Soong, who quieted the hardliners, Lee was allowed to ascend to the presidency unobstructed. Lee solidified his power by skillfully speaking of defending the party line, while emphasizing the global trends of reform. Lee and his allies in the government used the pressure from the hardliners as a tool to work for developing the underlying Taiwanese localization movement. Lee used methods under the veil of "pragmatism" to sideline Hou and his backers in the face of the opposition DPP.

Lee stepped down from politics in 2000.

Before the WIG boats enter Maropian waters, 45 Littoral Combat ships come out to intercept them, firing 900 RBS 15 missiles at close range, and then getting the heck back to Maropian Coast, to reload on missiles.

Meanwhile, in Japann, a company of armored infantry in CV-90s moved down a road to the west of Tokyo city, near where rumors of a high profile downed pilot were heard.

They encountered something with their NVGs. Partisans. They started firing RPGs at the Bonstocknians.

Though the RPGs were defelcted, they caused some damage. Quickly, the 40mm chain guns started firing at the side of the road.

A lucky RPG blew off a CV-90 turrent, before the others fired 40mm chain guns at the person who fired the RPG.

Then infantry came out of the 14 CV-90s. A total of 112 of them got out, and started shooting their M-4 carbines and SAWs at the enemy.

A squad of 8 moved over to a man, who looked like a passer-by. As the firefight with the partisans wore down, they stuck their carbines at the man. Someone shined a flashlight on him.

"Anata-wa dare desu?" said one of the soldiers, in a slightly funny accent.

Another soldier said something different. "뭐 해요? 어디 가세요? "

ooc: I HOPE that that meant "who are you" in Japanese. If it doesn't go ahead and correct me.

The Korean was from an online dictionary some I'm not as afraid. It should mean "What are you doing? Where are you going?"

144 Bonstocknian Smerch launchers fire at the Agrigentinian rockets, which cannot respond as they are out of range. Using guided rockets, they try to silence any opposition to Bonstock.

12 launchers are destroyed by special operations forces of East Islandia, but Maropian Defense forces manage to find the locations of many cells. Dozens are arrested by Maropian Forces, but must be let go. Prisoners are led to the border, and told to keep walking.

In Japann, prisoners are led to Shikoku, and sent across Bonstocknian lines.

The Bonstocknian government issued a statement. "We will never withdraw from Maropian Coast or the Sakishimas. We will die as a nation before a part of us is cut off."

Field Marshal Adolphus arrived in Maropian Coast aboard his Gulfstream V. He made a statement to a large rally.

"I will not leave! I will not leave! I will not leave until our great union is safe! Bonstock and Maropian Coast are inseperable! We will never abandon Maropian Coast! Maropian Coast saved us during the Civil War. And now Bonstock proper will return the favor! Hail to the Union! If Maropian Coast shall fall, I will not leave alive until it is free once more!"

The audiance cheered wildly. Some took Kalishnikovs, shooting them in the sky in a celebratory fashion, somewhat like Iraqi farmers. But this was no Saddam. Under the former President Hu Li, this was the general who led Maropian Coast to liberate Bonstock from the rebellion during the civil war. All of them were proud to be Bonstocknians, and many had been educated there. They were not about to be seperated from their brother.

ooc: Aha! That's what an H-9 is.

Meet the F-38. Developed months ago by Free Rumania, and deesigned to shoot down superior bombers. Mach 5, 9 missiles, 115,000 feet cieling, ask Free Rumania for anything else. I have 800 of them.

ic:

Bonstocknian F-38 units have been reactivated, and are now on high alert. Damage from the bombing was minimal, and is now repaired. Littoral combat ships, 120 of them (and counting) are now patrolling the shores for enemy raiders. 180 F-38s flew to Maropian Coast.

Meanwhile, from Nozomi Station, two aircraft take off, and go at incredible speed. Within a half of an hour, they are back.

They look like this:

-Hudecian Broadcaster-

"As per government legislation that was just rammed through using the War Measures Clause, all news stations will be closing down in one hour. That's right, this is a 100% media blackout, projected to last 48 hours unless the government extends it..."

-HN Hclav-

Kimura stood on the flight deck of the Nimitz class carrier staring out towards Tokyo and its great harbour. Captain Smetka's task force had arrived and was awaiting his orders. Kimura said a silent prayer for protection and wisdom.

-Sendai Line-

While Agrigentian and Bonstockian forces are involved in the missile duel, Hudecian forces creep up into artillery range and dig in. Smerches launchers may be powerful but once they fire they have given away their location. If they move, they must cease fire, and once they fire again, their location is know. The same applies to all long range units so Hudecian artillery remains silent and hidden.

ooc
whatever happend to Hu Li? Sounds like she was more sensible than your current leader...



IC
Honshu, near Sendai line

"Nani?" General Park asked, doing his best to conceal his Korean accent. He withdrew one of the stun grenades (flash bangs) and a precious smoke grenade from his web gear and rolled the two of them, pins off, towards the troops.

The night detonated in an ear splitting roar and flash of light, and Park ran for it. His two comrades, several meters ahead, turned and began firing their Japanese rifles at the Bonstockians, urging him to run.

One of them was killed instantly, and the two of them bolted into the woods. The Sendai line was approximately three km away, and the distance seemed to grow further with every step.

*****
Islandian Pacific Theatre Command Office
PRC China

A snap hiss of static broke the SATX radio, and a scratchy voice appeared. The duty officer bolted, and quickly hit the switch.

"Tiger One is alive," the man said. "Tiger One is alive..."

Gun fire ran out int he background. The officer shouted to one of his men to start tracing, and reached for the phone to alert Pacific Command's Japan HQ in Osaka.

%%%%%%%
"Hello?" General Sung asked grumpily. She was half hoping it would be General Kang Woo, but the high pitched voice of a female ensign jarred her out of her dreams.

And almost her skin.

"WHAT? HE IS?" Sung asked, disbelieving. "In that case, divert all AF CSAR teams, and get the Zero teams in country to get him out of there!"
She bolted for the comm room and asked to speak with Premier Park.

******
"You must not allow him to fall into enemy hands," General Sao said to her troops. By now, they had been behind enemy lines for nearly two weeks, and the strain of fighting on the run was beginning to show in some of her men.

Sao herself was fresh as a waterlily from one of Hu-kasa's great gardens, built during the 1500s. She grinned, and smacked her men awake, and held out some more boosters to them. THey mumbled their thanks and popped the pills, possibly the fifth dose in three days. Sao knew she had to get her men rest, but after they found General Park.

"Let's go," she ordered, and the men filed off, following their intrepid general into the woods, fanning out and searching for Park. Within minutes, a group of Pathet Cong Rangers had ran into Bonstockian patrols, and the resounding gunfire echoed through the hills.

Sao grimaced, and wished she could do something else. "Zulu, Tango, help them. Withdraw if you can. Everyone else keep looking!" she said into her intercom.

******
Prisoners were freed by dropping them off, via tiltrotors painted with blue stripes, in Honshu, not too far from the Sendai line.

Bonstockians are tranquilized, then transported to Taiwan and told to walk to MC during a lull in the fighting.

"What the f&&& where those?" Major An asked, hunkering down as the craft streaked back to the base. The six men who had made it inside via tunneling were spread out in various places, and during the ongoing fighting, were not detected.
"I dont know," his partner replied. "Looked like one of those DFs that Agrigento made, only... uglier."
An stifled a laugh and nodded. "Whatever it is, let's shit on it," he said. He looked around. "How providential. We ended up in Bonstock's armory!"
HIs partner smiled. "Fun, fun," he agreed.

A truck loaded wiht munitions streaked towards the planes, and detonated. Inside were watergel explosives, fuel, ammunitions, grenades, anything that was inside Nozomi Station's armory. THe truck exploded in a huge fireball (remote detonated), and two LAWs streaked out from the bushes, slamming into the aircraft.

Meanwhile, two other special forces operatives hijacked an incoming truck headed for the armory, holding on to the bottoms and knocking out the driver and the passenger and then taking their uniforms. As a last thought, they bolted their superior flakvests under the Bonstockian uniforms, and drove into the laboratory section, even if they had no idea how to get in.

Meanwhile, the disguised Agrigentians, wearing Bonstockian uniforms and bringing along plenty of supplies (including whiskey and whatever else the Bosntockians like to drink) drove in, seemingly oblivious to the explosions going on all around them and offering bottles to the nearest troops. They gave identification papers, stolen from troops and tailored, and passed around bottles and provisions, as they were supposed to be a supply convoy.

"Whats going on?" one of them asked. They drove to the office and delivered their packages, and dispersed through the base.

The office exploded and fierce fighting erupted inside the base. Meanwhile, several more Agrigentians followed their comrades in the tunnels, and the idiots who got lost the first time went intot he RIGHT tunnels, so they all ended up in various weird places.

Some even ended up in the showers, and smiled and waved before tossing smoke and knockout gas grenades everywhere and rendering people unconscious with the butt ends of their rifles and their fists.

"the lab, the lab," one of the men said.
"Yeah. That. Now how do we get in?" the other, a pretty woman of Vietnamese descent, asked.
Her partner looked at her and nodded. "Yes, we should."
"Should what?"
"Use you."
"Are you f%%%king serious?! NO way in hell!"
"Yes, there is," her partner replied, tryign to stifle his laughter. "We strap knockout gas to you, and you walk in dressed in scanty clothes."
"How am I supposed to do that?"
Her partner pulled out some women's lingerie.
"You perverted, male bastards."
He shrugged and smiled. "That's what my wife always says. Besides, give them credit; they're supposed to be blond and super sexy.."

Whistling innocently, Lieutenant Lizzie Trung, dressed in the underwear of Captain Ichikawa's wife, walked slowly up to the guards, a large package in her hand. She winked at them, and said in a low, husky voice, "Care to help me, boys? I have some food and special request orders that those poor, bored laboratory boys are always deprived of."

As she spoke, she lifted an Oreo and was about to put it into her mouth when it slipped from her hand dropped into her cleavage.
"Oops," she said, and smiled innocently. "Maybe one of you boys want a cookie?" she asked, coyly, and held out the box to them.

Of course, the cookies were laced with apathy inducers, which made hte user not care about anything (think getting high).

Capt Ichikawa shrugged helplessly at the guards. "You know those horny scientists," he said. "Maybe they can use it better than we think they can."
*********

The Red Tides reply too the peace treaty was simple: When hell freezes over.

Meanwhile at the nuclear base in Honshu...

What Red Tide hoped would happened happened: all but one missile had taken direct hits... but the last one went wrong. A missile landed nearby. The shockwave detonated the high explosives in the bomb... which caused a chain reaction....

At the landing site...

As the enemy troops stormed ashore the night suddenly turned too day momentarily. slowly and grimly the troops looked over towards Honshu... where a mushroom cloud was rising over the now destroyed city...

a message too the world
We hereby accuse the Asian Alliance of nuclear aggresion. Thank you.

OOC: I was un-aware that it is possible for a nuclear weapon to go off if by external damage alone, in fact, I would go as far as to say that my military (along with anyone who knows anything about nuclear weapon construction) will automatically assume that this is a hoax, as the worse affect of the blast would be that the nuclear weapon got so damage that the nuclear materials became exposed... they could not go critical unless you set the bomb off.


However, should nations try to use this as a prequisite to nuclear war, you should know that investigations can and will prove that the weapons nuclear materials will not match any material found in the Asian Alliances stocks... these things can be traced... trust me on it.

Will write more later, I need to read more into the current status.

Will write more later, I need to read more into the current status.

OOC: I am unaware of any nuclear attack on Honshu. Any ICBMs that are launched either at Honshu or from Honshu are shot down by Hudecian Avro Arrow Interceptors.

Also, as satellite photos would confirm, no Asian Alliance member launched nuclear weapons. Also, again, we confirm Iuthia's statement that a nuclear weapon would have to be detonated by its owners. A shock wave would NOT detonate it. Heavy explosives inside the device would simply create a lot of radiation (a dirty bomb it is called).

So, we could play along like Red Tide detonated his nukes or we could just ignore him. If he detonated his nukes the only people who would be directly harmed are his own troops and Bonstock's since his nukes would have to be far behind the lines.

I would also like to state that Honshu is NOT A CITY!!!!!! (as Red Tide seems to have stated).

I would rather we ignore Red Tide and move on.

Red Tide, ur a moron. Learn about this shit. When i say destroy, i mean i have my SOFs kill ur men, take the uranium warheads, and then leave watergel explosives on the sides of the TELs u have.

You do realize that uranium penetrators are needed (small bullets that fire directly into the core to cause a nuclear reaction) in order for them to detonate, dont you?

But if the situation had happened, this is wut i would respond by doing, so lets play a little 'what if', shall we not?

******
IF.....
At Honshu, site of the nuclear base

Corporal Chon watched as the men worked at the missiles, taking off the warheads and planting explosives next to the bodies. He sighed, and signaled to the other group, stationed atop a hill, with several quick squelches of static on the radio.

They responded in like, but before they could finish, sirens began blaring.

"What the hell happened?!" Chon said.

One of his men opened his mouth to reply, but before he could, the world disappeared in a flash of light, instantly killing the men in a huge explosion followedby a shockwave.

*********
General Sung stood in her command office watching the status reports as the radiation levels spiked. She closed her eyes, and let out a deep breath.

So it had begun. Red Tide had detonated its nuclear explosives.

"Get me the Chief of Tropical Paradise Air Defence," she ordered. "Pull all missile batteries on alert, and retaliate. I want those bastards fucked up the ass so hard that they wont know what hit them."

************
Within five minutes, aircrews at Harukaze Detachment, 1st ISR's staging area near PRC China, had heard the news and were scrambled. THey ran through last checks, and the day they waited for for so long was now here.

Within ten minutes, they were airborne.

Within two-three hours, they were wihtin firing range, and soon, nuclear tipped scramjet missiles fell out of their launch bays, one by one, and streaked towards Red Tide.

In total, five hundred missiles were launched, and the H9s, accompanied by a small detachment of twenty J37s, returned to their base to refuel and rearm.

Strategic Corps staging area
Chang Ngai Island

Fifty DF31 ICBMs streaked into the sky from mobile TELs painted in standard jungle grey. All across Islandia and in forward positions near PRC and Mainland China, Strategic Corps TEL units fired off their missiles, including DF31s, DF41s, DF5s, and even the spiky new Type 600MSN1 ICBMs with thirty MIR units capable of impacting into various areas.

In the seas, five Zhou SSBNs and six Huan SSBN Mark IIs fired off all their nukes at Red Tide, impacting into various, heavily populated centers all over the country, as per their target orders.

*****
Meanwhile, in Tropical Paradise Regional Air Defence Command, hundreds of ATS7000 units and air defence units, including FT2000s, S300s, and Anshu SAMs, were fired up, ready to blow incoming missiles out of the sky.

IN space, laser defence satellites were activated.

West Coral Sea's Orbital Defence Command was alerted of this.

I am a May nation, and so is Agrigento and Iuthia an dSpyr are madd old. We have more nukes than you do, and we also have better defences, especially since AG and I share our waters wit another friend of ours, who happens to be into space tech and has lasers a hundred times as deadly as Bonstocks.

The reinforced fleet waited silently as the day turned to night.

[OOC: Red Tide, I think I'm going to agree with consensus here, and question the viability of your nuclear scenario. If I understand correctly, outside explosives detonated inner explosives, which in turn caused a nuclear reaction? The only way I can understand such a scenario to be viable is if the inner explosive charge was the means by which the warhead's uranium bullet was fired, and somehow the housing remained utterly undamaged by the outer explosion... meaning that your inner explosive must be highly volatile, and would detonate frequently upon launch, transport, or even if storage facilities were disturbed by bombardment or natural disasters... somehow I think your nuclear weapons would be less unstable, but I suppose its always possible. Though, itd mean we have les to fear from your own nuclear strikes than you do...]

OOC Bitch-slap:The following OOC bitch slaps are now being administered to the following nations:

Red Tide: Firstly, it pretty damn obvicous to me and others that a nuclear weapon going critical can only occur if you actually set it off... in which case it isn't hard to prove that your nation is responicible.

Basically, I will ignore you if you claim a bomb set your nuke off. A simple reason being that it requires each peice of plutonium to be fired into one another at the exact same time, this has to be within a millionth of a second of one another, otherwise its just a dirty bomb...

If you say you did it then you had better be real good at talking BS, because I'm going to back Asian Alliance and if they get nuclear weapons fired at them I will invade your nation and make it "Mini Iuthia" on the grounds their leader is a dumb ass and needed replacing.

East Islandia: Chill... no "what ifs" because some people mis-read these things and it will be taken the wrong way. It also goads him into further acts of idiocy which are making this thread harder for all involved.

Quick badly RPed IC actions:

The Iuthian fleet backs up the Hudecian fleets, more information once I get all the relevant information.

Iuthia also now voices it's support for the Asian Alliance and all nations fighting along their side, communications have been sent out and we officially declare war against both Bonstock and Red Tide... however we would also like to voice that we would rather that the diplomatic situation be revolved before we act, no time limited has been placed on this request for diplomacy though we will act in the near future with our Hudecian allies when they feel the time is right.


OOC: Any issues with me joining the Hudecian ships? I don't know if the route is blocked because keeping up with this thread and maybe about 4 others (while working two positions in UnAPS) is slowing me down.

The Parliament in Taipeng has one response after Red Tide had stated Honshu as a city, and the "Nucleur Accident"
The halls were filled with laughter and the the President asked the Propaghanda Department to pay all the newspaper companies to have that on the front page.
Minster of war and Defense gives a statement to the Parliament after the laughter had seised.
"The Alliance, Allies, and Xiaguo will win for sure, our enemies, Bonstock and Red Tide seems to be opposites of each other. One is pretty wise, one is total grass."

Laughter begins again, this time President Dao Must silenced the parliament, he himself however also has a grin.

Xiaguo thanks Bonstock in a neutral manner for taking troops out of Taipei.

Xiaguo donates 20million dollrs in aid for rebuilding Hospitals, Schools, and Public Needs.









"Never disturb your enemy when he is making a mistake"

Well I didn't! hehehehe

OCC:DUMB@$$! Lol, you should consult a map before you begin another "So called Rp entry."

OOC: There shouldnt be any trouble with Iuthian ships joining the blockade. I've been there for the longest time and no one has tried to unseat my forces so...

Besides, with all the alliance forces patrolling the seas/oceans around Japan, we practically own them.

IC:

-Sendai Line-

Hudecian artillery spends its time building up its protected stockpiles of ammuntion and deepening their defences.

-Tokyo-

Local Yakuza have focused their latest efforts in the dock area of Tokyo and have frightened the Japanese police into avoiding the area at all costs. Apathy is also a major contributer to the failure of the Japanese police to curb Yakuza activity. Japanese police forces have never had the motivation to go after the gangs, more so now, when it is rumoured that the Yakuza have been armed by the Alliance.

Perhaps it has not occurred to Iuthia that we are PAST the point of negotiation. Bonstock has betrayed us again and again, and doubtless will do so in the future, and the only Bonstockian I trust is a cowering one removed of all imperialistic ambitions.

-Premier Park Hyemin

And Red Tide, just stop talking. It's not worth getting angry over anything you do.

ooc: Hu Li? Sensible? You mean, the same woman Hu Li that started out as a BSS assasin, then became an ambassador to Automagfreek so we could kill their leaders if nessicary? The same Hu Li who gave sexual favors to our old President the Marquis Ste. Evremonde in return for political positions, including his party's nomination for President? The same Hu Li who ran Bonstock with an iron fist, and during the civil war went insane and killed random people? And the same one who at the end of the war strapped herself to a T-1 bomb, and piloted a spacepod into the middle of a rebel spacefleet, killing herself and taking 50,000+ Bonstocknians with her?

ic: In Port Yuko, Field Marshal Adolphus decided to take some time to himself. He wandered through the parks at the start of the harbor, and looked at the night sky above him. He reached into his pocket, and pulled out a small paper. It was a transmission, dated on the day that Bonstock's civil war ended, called the longest day in Bonstocknian history.

He read it, knowing these were the last words of an incredibly brave Bonstocknian. Adolphus silently thought to himself, "That was one brave woman. If incredibly crazy." He sighed to himself, and his mind went back to the meeting one the eve of the Longest Day.

That was the last time he saw her. He sighed to himself, and folded the paper, putting it back in his coat pocket.

Then a man came rushing forward. Out of breath, he said, "Red Tide detonated a nuke, and blamed it on the East Islandians."

Adolphus grew wide eyed. He thought for a moment.

"SIr?"

His face grew pale. It was difficult. His mind thought deeply. Then a voice came to his mind. A young woman's voice. He recognized it well. Don't let the world sucumb to my fate, it said.

"Sir?"

"Telegram the Asian Resistance. We're switching sides."

"But sir!"

"Do it."

"Yes, sir."

A telegram was sent to East Islandia, Agrigento, Hudecia, Spyr, Xiagou, (everyone esle agianst me).

Esteemed collegues of the Asian Resistance,

We know what Red Tide did. We would like to switch sides. He has betrayed us.

As long as we can keep Maropian Coast and the Sakishimas, we'll be content. We apologize for the bombing of Taipei, and will pay the 50 billion dollars to help them rebuild. Our forces are ready to attack Red Tide, and force him out of Japann for good. Just tell us what to do, and we'll do it.

Meanwhile, at the base, the guards are unable to keep from staring at the woman. So one of them says, "Hey, I have a good idea. How about I take you down to McDonalds, have a bite to eat."

Another guard stares at him. "No way, mate, she's mine!"

"No! She came to me!" He turned to her. "Come on, baby. Let's blow this joint."

"Are you sure you don't want an Oreo?"

"Sure!" they both said. Then an officer came up. "Is there something I can help you with, miss? This is restricted limit areas."

By now the apathy inducers had worked on the men.

The Bonstocknians fire their SAWs at the men. Some of them take hits, and are taken back to the CV-90s. Then the IFVs made a bold to cut off the escapees.

OOC: Shit, I lost my long post. Basically, my marines get off the WIGs, make a beachhead with SAMs, MLRS, MBTs, etc, and a few WIGs are damaged.

More Bonstocknian baots go out. Smerches make an about face, and barrage the beachhead. Coastal defense batteries engage fiercely with machine guns and point blank range 155mm artillery. Mines, millions of them, go off in the Taiwanese landing area. F-38s start taking off, and attack the beachhead and the WIGs.

ooc: What is a WIG anyway? How many forces were landed? And were you aware that my defenses make the Atlantic Wall look like a figment of Adolph Hitler's cloudcukooland? (ooc: actual quote from Erwin Rommel, commenting on defenses before he shaped them up).

-Hudecian Secret Command Post-

The report of a nuclear explosion in Honshu had thrown the entire command structure into lockdown mode.

"Can you confirm if there was a nuclear explosion in Honshu or not?" A general demanded over the phone.

"Nuclear strike force reports itself in range of Bonstock and the Maropian Coast..." a young technician cried out above the din.

"All ICBMs report armed and ready... targets are locked, Port Yuko and the Nozomi Base are the primary targets. Madam President, what are your orders? ... "

For a moment, the world seemed to stand still and await her fateful decision. She cleared her throat loudly to make sure she had everyone's attention before she spoke.

"At present, we have no confirmation whether or not a nuclear device was actually detonated. Several nations, Iuthia, E. Islandia, Spyr and Xiaguo all seem to believe that no nuclear device was used. Our own satellite images seem to agree with this assessment. So, the report is false, no nuclear device was detonated, and their is no immediate threat or need for nuclear retaliation. Those are my orders. As for Bonstock... well... everything will proceed as planned."

The South Dalanian forces headed for the East Islandian lines reached the East Islandian command post shortly after dark. The convoy had reached the area relatively unscathed, although two tanks had fired a few depleted uranium shells into a wooded area that had been full of small arms fire. The rest of the soldiers, relatively safe inside the armored hulls of APC's had escaped with nothing more than troubled nerves.

Kang Woo climbed out of the cab of the lead APC, slamming the door behind him. Moving quickly past the East Islandian sentries, the South Dalanian Overseer General stepped inside the command post, seeking out the commanding officer.

Collaring one of the senior East Islandian officers, the general quickly asked, "Where's General Sung? The South Dalanian forces are assembled and ready to go...if she'll just brief us on the local situation, we're ready to roll."

144 Bonstocknian Smerch launchers fire at the Agrigentinian rockets, which cannot respond as they are out of range. Using guided rockets, they try to silence any opposition to Bonstock.

ooc: Not for nothing, but my TACM have a range well in excess of 120 kms...while the Smerch system is as follows:

FIRING RANGE
Maximum 70 km
Minimum 20 km

I have well over a thousand Arciere GMLRS firing 2 of these missiles a peice....

The BAT TACMs each contain 13 Idependent Strike Packages.



The BAT is an acoustic and infrared (IR) guided submunition that autonomously searches for, tracks and defeats armored and critical mobile targets. The BAT is a propulsionless, aerodynamically controlled vehicle (glider). The BAT is delivered to the target vicinity by the Tactical Missile System (TACMS), which is launched from the Arciere Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System (GMLRS). As such, BAT is part of the GMLRS Family of Munitions (GFOM). The submunition is designed to provide capability to attack deep, high-payoff and time critical targets.

http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/munitions/images/97bat.jpg
After dispense of the 13 submunitions from the ATACMS Block II missile, the weapons glide to their preprogrammed target area, and each selects a discrete target within its assigned acoustic segment of the formation. Once a target has been acquired by the terminal infra-red seeker, the weapon guides to terminal impact and uses a tandem shaped-charge warhead to destroy the vehicle. With a relatively large acoustic search/glide footprint, the BAT is capable of accommodating target location ambiguity inherent with the engagement of moving formations.

More Bonstocknian baots go out. Smerches make an about face, and barrage the beachhead. Coastal defense batteries engage fiercely with machine guns and point blank range 155mm artillery. Mines, millions of them, go off in the Taiwanese landing area. F-38s start taking off, and attack the beachhead and the WIGs.

ooc: What is a WIG anyway? How many forces were landed? And were you aware that my defenses make the Atlantic Wall look like a figment of Adolph Hitler's cloudcukooland? (ooc: actual quote from Erwin Rommel, commenting on defenses before he shaped them up).

OOC: I did launch 7,200 cruise missiles at your nation, and bomb the area with 300mm rockets. A WIG is short for my Wing-In-Ground aircraft, low-flying aircraft (5 - 20m off the sea). 16,000 marines, 200 MBTs, 150 MLRS, 200 Patriot SAMs. Also the S-900 WIG transporter (based on the R.L Pelican) can carry 4,800 troops.

Coastal batteries and artillery pieces are targetted with missiles from the WIGcrafts, while coastal mines are deactivated by personnel. MLRS fire the newly acquired ATACMS rockets at the Smerches afer they fire. SM-2s from the fleet and Patriot SAMs do their best to provide air cover for the fleet. The three wings of F-36s attack the F-38s as they take off.

More reinforcements are enroute from Tainan.

Meanwhile, along the border with Taiwan, B-380s begin launching hundreds of CALCMs at border defences, accompanied by an equally large Tomahawk bombardment.

Two wing of F-22Ts and one wing of F-35 in wild weasel takes off and head towards the border.

D-DAY

Zero Hour

-Tokyo Bay- aboard HN Hclav -
0800 hours

Kimura stood on the flight deck once again, staring at Tokyo as the metropolis came alive. He turned to his second in command, "it is time..." were his only words. He needn't have said more, the officer bowed politely and ran excitedly back to the command room where he put the wheels in motion.

Satellite and radio messages were sent out all over the world. To the government of Spyr, East Islandia, Xiaguo, Agrigento, South Dalania, Hudecia, Iuthia, and even Bonstock, although Bonstock's message was different.

- Telegram to Bonstock -

Bonstockian forces occupying the islands of Honshu, Shikoku and Kyushu are hereby ordered to surrender immediately and unconditionally. This is non-negotiable and no time will be given to deliberate. You will not receive another warning.

-Sendai Line-

Captain Smetka watched his watch carefully. He had received confirmation from Kimura less than a minute ago.

"Open fire!" He yelled as he turned towards the hundreds of artillery pieces that had been towed here. Within an instant his order was carried down the line and the artillery open fire on the Bonstockian lines.

M1A2s and Hudecian troops then broke out of their defensive networks and stormed towards the Bonstockian defences. Over 950 M1A2s, 100 APCs, 50 Bradley Fighting Vehicles, 25 Tank Destroyers and 30 000 troops were involved.

-Hudecian Airbase in N. Honshu-

The air raid siren rang out loudly sending pilots and their crews scrambling to take off. Although there was no immediate threat the siren helped get the adrenaline going. Within minutes, over 200 MiG-29s escorting 20 Avro Arrow fighter-bombers were in the sky. They headed for the frontline where they would provide close air support for the attack before heading to Tokyo.

- Behind the Sendai Line -

As soon as air cover passed over the 100 Blackhawk helicopters would take to the sky carrying 1 000 Air Calvary Troops. They would land behind enemy lines in the fray and break the defences.

- Tokyo Harbour -

The cobined Alliance fleet began moving into Tokyo harbour with full air cover of 70 F-18 Hornets launched from Hudecian carriers. Destroyers prepared to launch Harpoon missiles at enemy ships and the Ulsan class frigates searched for enemy subs. Sea Spearrow missiles would fire at enemy fighter cover. Kimura watched to see if his Iuthian, Xiaguo, and Spyr allies would follow suit. Hudecian marines boarded Blackhawks and Sea Stallions preparing to disembark in Tokyo. LCACs were fully loaded and ready to go.

- Docks in Tokyo Harbour -

Armed with Uzis, Chinpira and Yakuza agents storm the docks attacking any Red Tide or Bonstockian guards. Helicopters from the Hudecian navy would begin landing troops in secure areas within minutes.

-HN Hclav - Tokyo Harbour -

The assault would be the beginning of the end. It would be the high tide moment for Hudecia and perhaps the whole alliance. Kimura stood silently on the flight deck and prayed for the souls of the men who would be dead or dying soon.

Radio operators sent out messages loudly to all the allies... "Operation Anaconda has begun.... all units follow Hudecia's lead."

The coordination was perfect... troops who had been awaiting the beginning of Operaton Anaconda now stormed forth, unleashing their full might upon the enemy.

Niigata Shoreline
Over a thousand cruise missiles, launched from ships and ground launchers on Sado, pounded into Bonstockian defences. The forces making the amphibious assault, numbering some 12,000 infantry and over 300 battle tanks, continued to land and push upward from the shore, moving inland inch by bloody inch.
The heavy guns of the two Spyran battleships in the Sea of Japan, the PRSS Dragon and the PRSS Griffon opened up as well, blasting away at enemy fortifications.

Then, the skies were filled with the roaring sound of jet engines, as flight after flight of Spyran F-40 fighters screamed through the air over Japann. The 500 fighters targeted any enemy aircraft with their numerous MRAAMs and SRAAMS, and some swept low to bombard enemy tanks and troops with guided bombs and their 20mm cannon.

Sendai Line
The Spyran troops pushed forward, with tanks, infantry, and helicopters supporting each other as they pressed onward alongside their allies. Behind the advance, the Spyran field hospital busied itself with caring for all who fell at the front.

Southern Honshu
From the PRSS Phelot and its supporting ships an extensive bombardment began over Bonstockian lines, as eighty cruise missiles pounded into hardpoints and AA sites. Then, from the carrier, twenty EA-220 bombers and forty F-40 fighters took to the skies. The bombers swept over Bonstock's defensive line, unleashing their payloads of guided bombs at key points, while the fighters sought out and engaged enemy air assets.

General Mashiro watched from his frontline post as the bombers began to soar upward and turn to return to the Phelot for rearmament-refuelling. He drew his sword, and gave the signal... a symbolic gesture, since most of the front was operating from pre-planned orders, but one which brought confidence to those troops who surrounded him.
Then, the Spyran forces swarmed forward into the defensive line, hitting the points just weakened by bombardment. Tanks and infantry unleashed a veritable rain of shells, grenades, and bullets onto the Bonstockians, and their bayonets remained fixed in preparation for the close-quarters fighting that was sure to come.

[OOC: Hopefully East Islandia & South Dalania will also advance full force northward from Osaka?... this is a wider front than Sendai or Niigata, and I doubt I'll get very far on my own...]

Tokyo Harbour
Submerged, the Orca submarines led the way into the harbour, releasing two spreads of torpedoes into the enemy ships located there (twenty four torpedoes total). Then, as the other vessels pushed forward, the Orcas surfaced in their midst to provide supporting fire. Each mounted a 6" gun, which fired upon defensive positions along the shoreline, while their twin 20mm machine guns provided additional air cover for the fleet.

High Command War Room, Spyr
The President looked over the reports as they poured in... the sheer number of forces involved in Operation Anaconda was boggled the mind. The 'dirty bomb' incident in northern Honshu would cause trouble after the war, but he was certain of one thing: the imperialists would soon be driven out of Japann.

The question in his mind was 'What then?'
Bonstock had underestimated resistance to its plans, and had made a grave error in launching an assault from the Maropian Coast... it seemed many nations would not be satisfied until the Coast was removed from Bonstockian control.
He, however, did not hold that belief. The role of the Maropian populace during the Bonstockian civil war had given them national pride, while they had a measure of democratic representation. It was uncertain if they would be willing to leave Bonstock, and he had no intention of sacrificing Spyran lives for such a task.

Yet, none of his allies would accept any possibility of a threat to _Taiwan from the Coast. He was confident that, even if Bonstock was not included, his plan for post-war Japann was sound, and would be agreed to...

all that remained now was to create a plan for a broader peace, that all sides could accept...

[code:1:86fbbbf772]It is time...[/code:1:86fbbbf772]

"Sir, we have recieved word from the Hudecian Fleet, they are advancing towards the Tokyo harbour" The young officer reported, handing over the message.

Captain Jenkov stared at it for a moment before looking up, he had been in the navy for some time now, he had observed many naval conflicts and now it was his turn to join the fracas.

"Turn the fleet about, we have our orders, support the Hudecian Fleet the best we can, we'll cover the rear with our Carrier Group while our Amphibious group advances with them as a second and third wave... those men may be well trained but this is their first real combat scenario." His face was stern as he spoke these words, combat experiece was hard to find inthe Iuthian army due to the lack of real conflict. He knew what he was spending his men into.


- Tokyo Bay - 0810

The four Iuthia Carriers started to manouver themselves to the back of the entire multinational fleet before launching their E-2C planes to allow for an early warning against attacks from the rear. With the carriers the assorted essort vessals (Cruisers, Destroyers and SSN Submarines) took their positions around the Carriers to allow for complete defences.

The Cruisers ( 8 ) provided a strong anti-air presence among the fleet, protecting the Carriers from counter attack and protecting the multinational force from a rear air based attack.

The Destroyers (12) provided strong protection from surface and undersea attacks, using various radar systems and air craft to vigourously check the water around them for submarines and enemy vessals.

The SSN Submarines ( 8 ) provided further protection from both surface and undersea attack, they were keeping an eye out for enemy submarines at the rear of the fleet.



Meanwhile, the Amphibious Ready Group was manouvering to keep up with the fleet at the speed of 20 knots, seeing as pretty much all ships designed to allow amphibious assualts are all limited to these speeds...

The group made sure to stay protected behind other vessals, using the protection of their own escorts made up of 6 more Cruisers and 9 more destroyers. The destroyers were keeping a careful check for submarinal activity as well as keeping updated on the satalite pictures of the enemy units that could be ahead. The Cruisers simply performed their AA duty, among their other uses.

Otherwise the groups was made up of two 2 Amphibious Assault Ships, 2 2 Amphibious Transport Docks and 2 Dock Landing Ships. Overall they provided the Iuthian army with around 6000 men for quick breach deployment on the shores. All of the group were behind other nations Amphibious forces because of the green nature of the Iuthian soldiers, however their precence was indeed there.



- Tokyo Bay - 0815 - Aboard CVN Bolivar


"Tell the Hudecian fleet that were are ready and that our Carriers are covering the rear, tell them that we wish them luck." The Captian stated to the junior officer.

"Eye Sir, message sent."

Night
Kyushu/Shikoku Front

Immediately, hundreds of scramjet missiles impacted into Bonstockian defenses on Shikoku, as three full Marine divisions landed to the rear. in the front, five fifteen thousand pounders and plenty of watergel trails and napalm were detonated, and tanks began to roll over the remains of whatever defense line was there.

Pathet Cong Rangers were dropped behind enemy lines, to coordinate with and support their comrades, wearing Bonstockian uniforms and carrying Bonstockian issue weapons.

*******
General Park fired his weapon, an FN F2000, in quick bursts as the men came closer. He pulled down his quik-adjustment goggles, and dropped another flashbang, whistled to his partner. The two turned away when it exploded with a thud and a flash. He also whipped out the last of his smoke grenades and pulled the pin. His comrade did likewise, and also tossed out two White Phosphorous grenades, which turned night into day for a brief minute.

His partner fired a smoke grenade through his grenade launcher in the direction of the IFV, and ran through the smoke, slapping a watergel packet to the side of the tread, and ran as Park fired at the gunners and incoming infantry to keep them occupied.

The packet exploded and tore off a tread. The man fired again, and dropped another smoke grenade, even though the previous ones werent depleted, and shouted for Park to run.

They dashed off into the woods, tossing watergel mines into the road after them.

******
Meanwhile, several Special Police teams fan out in Hu-kasa, looking for Bonstockian secret agents rumored to have infiltrated into the Island City. One of them spots a suspicious looking man spending very much time at the hospital, his features a shade lighter than most Islandians (or tourists in the region) and his behavior a tad bit too suspicious.

Agents fan out and follow him discreetly. A team of paramilitaries are readied for action if needed.

*******
Lizzie pulled another oreo out of her chest, and handed it to the officer. Just in case he wouldnt eat it, Ichikawa was standing nearby, a helpless grin on his face, but ready to sink a tranq agent into his shoulder if necessary.

"Could you two be dears and open the doors for me?" Lizzie asked hte guards nicely. They nodded, stuck in a stupor, and worked slowly.

Ichikawa waited and fidgeted, chewing on a small stick of orange jello. The water slurry explosives, hidden in his pack, were blue, so no one would accidentally ingest them.
******

Tanks push upwards, ever vigilant as hordes of J37s fan out, looking for Bonstockian or RT fighters and mobile air defence units keep their radars activated and fingers steady..

******
General Sung smiled at Kang. "Good to see you again, General," she said softly, and bowed quickly. "We have work to do."

She pointed out on a map, the advance, as it was moving north from Osaka. "We have approximately 6 or 7 divisions of 15000 each, moving by ground northwards from five staging points, one of which is not far from here. We would appreciate it if you could attack with the Fifth Brigade, from the Tao Guards to take Nagoya, and spearhead our attack into there. I trust you have come well equipped for urban fighting?"

- 0900 hours - Tokyo Bay

Nearly 50 Blackhawk helicopters take to the sky in a series of waves, carrying 500 combat troops to the dock area of Tokyo Harbour. The Yakusa agents, although well trained and disciplined were outnumbered and outgunned, being less than 200 in number. Hudecian marine forces took heavy hits from defences but still landed troops in Tokyo, a symbolic victory if anything.

- 0910 hours - Ginza Area of Tokyo -

The sounds of warfare were clearly heard throughout the streets. Initially many believed that it was simply another training exercise, but the length and intensity indicated something more serious. Another massacre? Were Bonstockian and Red Tide troops fighting? What was going on?

Many tuned into local radio stations trying to learn more. But for now, no one could confirm anything, except that there was heavy fighting downtown.

Unbeknownst to the Japanese, elements of the elite Baykal Raiders Brigade are inserted into the tunnel system as they are landed by the beachhead secured by Hudecian troops...

In the secret Tunnel System under Tokyo

The light danced in the shadows, as Cpl Soonyeva's IFV rolled forward. Their column, a twenty vehicle motorcade, drove quickly, wiht extra muffling and lights off.

Soonyeva, a woman of Jewish Russian descent who had fled to Islandia years ago during the pogroms of the time, sighed, and brushed a strand of long blond hair out of her eyes. She tried to focus on the road ahead, and fiddled wiht the adjustment on her NVGs.

Behind her, several more IFVs were present, the rest being heavily armored HMMVWs with an ATS launcher and a remote operated chaingun that could be directed from inside the vehicle. There was not really any room for any tanks, and Command didnt want to risk having vulnerable APCs, so they decided to use IFVs.

To the sides, Raider troops, dressed in their usual night gray, walked slowly. Unsupported armored vehicles were death traps, as the Russians had learned in Chechnya and the Islandians during the battles of Ba-kasa, capital of West Islandia, and Phosphorous Lagoon during the Islandian Wars so long ago.

A man paused at the entrance and signaled for the column to halt. He checked his map, and peeked outside.

Sure enough, they were near a contested area of the Ginza district, which was where they needed to be. The man pulled aside a door, and motioned for the convoy to move.

THe twenty vehicles rolled out in record time, with about thirty troops jogging alongside them or riding on the sides, weapons at ready. As soon as they broke into the dark night, the troops jumped off, and began sweeps of the area, breaking up into skirmish lines and following the IFVs.

All over Tokyo, the scene was repeated with what little knowledge there was of the tunnel system (ooc thanx Hudecia), and also with other allied troops....

Bonstocknian forces withdraw from Tokyo, to Narita airport.

It is clear that Red Tide will nuke the city anyway. Bonstocknian agents try to prevent this.

The Marine Expeditionary Forces withdraw in Shikoku and , destroying heavy equipment except artillery. They withdraw into the mountains, and prepare for an unconventional war.

Maropian Defense Forces start preparing to defend their homeland. Everyone with a Kalishnikov not tied down in the line on the _Taiwanese border prepares to attack _Taiwanese forces and defend their homeland.

Missiles from the Sakishimas are lobbed at the Taiwanese WIGcraft, armed with EMP warheads.
A transmission is sent to the governments the enemy forces.

We are willing to accept compromise. We can tell that your forces have entered Tokyo, but we have grave intelligence. You should pull back immidiatly, for we fear the work of our allies.

We believe that you recieved our message saying we were to switch sides. We demand a response.

Our conditions are such: That Maropian Coast and the Sakishimas be allowed to remain part of the Federal Republic, and Bonstock will take part in the rebuilding of . If this is not adhered to, we shall join Red Tide and continue fighting.

We will withdraw our forces if you adhere. We will go especially quietly if you allow us to help rebuild Japann.

Bonstocknian forces prepare for a war much unlike the one they fought. The divisions dismount from their tanks, leaving them in bunkers in Narita, with destruction charges to them so they would not fall into enemy hands. A cache of old towed Japannese 155mm howitzers was found, and put into use, along with a bunch of captured Japannese military trucks. I Corps prepared for the battle of its life.

Meanwhile, a company of guards walked in, recieving a radio message from the officer. They aimed their rifles at the lady, and, though they liked the scantily dressed woman, one of them said, "Please leave this area. This is off limits."

Meanwhile, forces were alerted. A full battalion started to come, preparing for the threat.

In Maropian Coast, hundreds of thousands, perhaps a million, gathered, and sang a song solemnly. It was broadcast on live television, throughout Maropian Coast. In towns all over the colony, or rather Bonstocknian State, people gathered to watch on television. It was even beamed to the Sakishimas, where new Bonstocknians remained proud of their influence on their adopted nation's civil war and current politics.

Some cried, most sang along, some just silently watched, all proud to be Bonstocknian, prepared to die for the Fatherland.

And the song played, to the tune of the German National Anthem:

Bonstock, Bonstock über alles,
Über alles in der Welt,
Wenn es stets zum Schutz und Trutze
Brüderlich zusammenhält.
Von der Kust bis an die Yuko,
Von der Mar bis an den Grand -
Bonstock, Bonstock über alles,
Über alles in der Welt!
Bonstock, Bonstock über alles,
Über alles in der Welt!

Bonstock Frauen, bonstock Treue,
Bonstock Wein und Bonstock Sang
Sollen in der Welt behalten
Ihren alten schönen Klang,
Uns zu edler Tat begeistern
Unser ganzes Leben lang -
Bonstock Frauen, Bonstock Treue,
Bonstock Wein und Bonstock Sang!
Bonstock Frauen, Bonstock Treue,
Bonstock Wein und Bonstock Sang!

Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit
Für das Bonstock Vaterland -
Danach laßt uns alle streben
Brüderlich mit Herz und Hand!
Einigkeit und Recht und Freiheit
Sind des Glückes Unterpfand.
Blüh' im Glanze dieses Glückes,
Blühe, Bonstock Vaterland!
Blüh' im Glanze dieses Glückes,
Blühe, Bonstock Vaterland!

Unsupported armored vehicles were death traps, as the Russians had learned in Chechnya and the Islandians during the battles of Ba-kasa, capital of West Islandia, and Phosphorous Lagoon during the Islandian Wars so long ago.

ooc: When was this war in West Islandia?

and what are the defenses around the Amami Islands, about 150km north-east of Okinawa?

-Sendai Line-

With allied forces breaking through the defensive network and air calvary forces landing behind enemy lines victory seems complete. Air superiority is established in the north and the victorious forces charge on towards Narita.

-Tokyo-

Hudecian fighters drop MOABs and Bunker Buster bombs in an attempt to destroy Red Tide nuclear arsenal. Yakusa agents pitch in by telling allied forces the location of Red Tide's arsenal.

However, having cleared out the bay of all hostile vessels and subs the fleet moves off, away from Tokyo.

-Ginza-

Hudecian marines and tanks proceed down the main streets of Tokyo in pursuit of Bonstockian and Red Tide forces. Isolated Red Tide forces are lynched by angry Japanese while luckier Bonstockian forces are quickly turned over to allied troops.

The West Islandian war was a while ago, back when i first started NS. Not unlike you and Maropian Coast Civil War, West Islandia rebelled, but unlike your conflict, we were defeated (cause my buddy wanted that nation) roundly and taught a lesson in humility.

Of course, they bomb us every now and then, but it had become so that if they decide to raid us, we f*** them downt he throat harder than they ever can by unleashing missiles and SOFs intheir countryside to burn sh*t and kill soldiers, not civilians.

And yes, West Islandia is terrorist... wonder if they're still around and not deleted due to disuse....

The defenses on Okinawa and the surrounding islands? Well, you were going to try and take them some time or another, so...

a small trip wire force stationed around the edges (to the furthest northern reaches), with 15000 lb encased sodium mines ringing the perimeter (if you're unlucky enough to be sailing around here, the shockwave blows you out of the water), radar, sonar, and magnetic sensing stations with overlapping coverage, 12 swift craft detachment, and three Surface engagement groups. Five Marine divisions with the islands fortified to the hilt.

"No, it's not," a quiet voice said from the darkness.

As the guards turned to look, two huge, four kg flashbangs detonated, filling the entire hall with noise and light and effectively blinding those unfortunate enough to be standing there, and filling the screen with static (it contained a mini-EMP generator that could knock out various devices here and there).

The men took off their goggles and earmuffs, and quickly set to work, opening the door with retinal scans and fingerprints taken from the soldiers.

If that didnt work, the door's mechanisms were sufficiently fried by the two EMPs that it should be able to be moved via explosive or laser drills, which the Aggies had with them.

Major An narrowed his eyes. They had about eight minutes before everyone started to wake up, so he ordered one of his men to help a shaken Lizzie Trung get dressed.

The men poured in through the open door.

Pathet Cong Rangers, Zero Teams, and predominantly Russian Jewish Raider detachments quickly parachute into the mountains, nipping at the heels of the Bonstockians. Heavy equipment is abandoned, and troops are inserted via rapid, air descent ops.

By daybreak, the mountains are flooded with SOFs in murky mottled mountain grey, slinging, at heaviest, mortars, in their search for the Bonstockians.

A mountain specialist brigade is prepared and infiltrated into the dense, warm mountains, even in winter.

Of course, they bomb us every now and then, but it had become so that if they decide to raid us, we f*** them downt he throat harder than they ever can by unleashing missiles and SOFs intheir countryside to burn sh*t and kill soldiers, not civilians.

And yes, West Islandia is terrorist... wonder if they're still around and not deleted due to disuse....

The defenses on Okinawa and the surrounding islands? Well, you were going to try and take them some time or another, so...

Five Marine divisions with the islands fortified to the hilt.

-Tokyo-

The Iuthian fleet follows suit, all vessals retreat along with the Hudecian fleet, however due to the nature of the warnings and the current climate the Iuthian fleet makes sure it's ships are not too close together and prevents crowding.

Zulu Vektor fighters roar over the skies of the East China Sea, awaiting the arrival of any Bonstockian fighters who prove to be NOT modern tech (those things from Nozomi Station)

Meanwhile, Ravenhawk fighters provoke dogfights with Bonstockian ABLs, which are quickly destroyed by disruptors and energy missiles.

Crowds in Maropian Coast find themselves strafed with spreads of nonlethal barf-waves, which are delivered via re-entry pods traveling five times the speed of sound. The things burst in waves and make everyone within a four km radius barf and cough like crazy, and that's what we, at WCS GHQ, feel t hat you, citizens of Maropian Coast, deserve for being so stubborn and damned stupid when invading Taiwan.

Ravenhawks travel twelve times the speed of sound in atmosphere, as do Zulu Vektors. They can dogfight extremely well, and both planes are atmospheric and interplanetary.

-Tokyo-

Avro Arrows patrol the skies over Tokyo to prevent a ballistic missile launch. Another 2 divisions land in Tokyo to restore order and chase out the remaining hostile units.

The Imperial Palace is not touched, and no troops enter into it. Japanese Imperial Guards, although wary of foreigner troops, do not provoke any hostilities.

-Ginza Area-

Crowds throng the streets celebrating the liberation of Tokyo from Red Tide.

-Shinjuku Station-

Hudecian marines storm through the massive complex and station themselves at entrances and exits. However, they do not interfere with the daily going abouts of the people. A Japanese officer gazes over his newspaper lazily at the Hudecian troops in full combat fatigues and heavily armed and sighs loudly before pulling up the newspaper to block his view.

OOC: Yes, those Mach 5 fighters are unattainable in modern tech. It's Free Rumania's fault not yours, but remove them.

President Chen writes the most important document he has ever laid his hands on.

We have been the victims of Imperialism for too long. Red Tide's possesion of nuclear weapons does not change a thing. If peace is to be attained however, then one thing must be done. Bonstock's capability to project military force in a manner threatening to other nations must be removed. Bonstock's offensive military will be removed, but will be permitted to retain a defensive military. Bonstock will provide funds only to the Japannese government for rebuilding.

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

The line continues to be bombed with MLRS launched ATACMS guided missiles, while Taiwan's army moves ever closer. From behind the border, JSFs launch ALARM anti-radar missiles. Indigenous designed ARALRAAMs (anti-radiation advanced long range AAM) are launched at enemy AWACS, with a range of 250km.

CALCMs containing EMPs are launched at the Maropian coast TV station. Meanwhile, propaganda is broadcasted in the Maropian coast encouraging the citizens to protest against their war-like leaders and offering them peace and kindness if they do not resist.

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

The EMP missiles shut down two WIGcraft, forcing their pilots to revert to hydralic systems. A few kilometres down the coast, three S-900's arrive and form a second beachhead, with 10,000 troops + equipment. Escorted reinforcements continue to arrive from Tainan.

A transmission is sent to East Islandia.

We will not surrender our forces. We will withdraw them ourselves. We are fine for you to dictate where we are to rebuild.

****

In Bonstock, men waearing gasmasks and protective goggles, by the hundreds, responded to the alert calls, and went to the main gate where the East Islandians were. All facilities were put on lockdown, no one in, no one out. Or be shot.

A division came to seal off the entrence so no more SOFs could get in.

****

Bonstocknian Type 40 space-interceptors, flying even faster, decend from the skies, 60 of them, and fire lasers at the Zulu Vektors. ABLs join the fight as well, firing their lasers at the East Islandian fighters, mistaking them for ICBMs.

ooc: My F-38s aren't really furture tech. They're just a few years off, depending on money. Really, they were desinged to intercept high altitude bombers like Free Rumania's B-4 Shadow, which flys Mach 4 and can reach 105,000 feet. You used the H-9, which is not as good but too much for a regular fighter to handle, so I used this.

****

The CV-90s, their crews having seen the watergels planted, move around again, and alert more units to come help. Going cross country, they attampt to surround the men. More CV-90s come to help, and a whole battalion of 58 of them surrounded the area, firing 40mm chain gun rounds and unloading SAW and M-4 carrying troops.

ooc: No, I don't want to know who guards Okinawa itself. Who guards the islands to the north-east of Okinawa. How many forces guard the Amami islands? Not Okinawa, which I know has 3 divisions at least.

Patrols from Narita, all on foot or by HMMWV, go out, patrolling the surrounding area for SOFs and enemy forces.

One of them siezes a bridge across a river to the north.

Meanwhile, in Bonstock proper, 140 Littoral Combat Ships take to the seas. 100 of them are "troop carrying" ships. They head in a zigzag method.

F-38s join the fight against the Taiwanese, firing missiles at the WIGs offshore, and dropping bombs on the beachhead. Then they perform CAP for East Islandian bombers.

The Maropian Defense forces continues fighting the enemy, firing howitzers, machine guns, ATGMs, and mortars at the enemy invading their shores. Beach defenses are harmed severly, but entrenched troops quickly fight back, coming from unschathed dugouts. Reserves pour in, shooting wildly at the invaders.

Meanwhile, in Hu-kasa, noticing that he was being trailed, the man walked to a hotel that was not his. He loittered in the lobby for a long while, and then went upstairs, to mislead his trackers. When they were gone, he went to a tanning salon, so this would not happen again.

OOC: Yes, those Mach 5 fighters are unattainable in modern tech. It's Free Rumania's fault not yours, but remove them.

ooc: it can only go Mach 5 in short bursts. But the H-9 goes Mach 4, so if East Islandia uses them, I will use my fighters.

Zulu Vektor fighters roar over the skies of the East China Sea, awaiting the arrival of any Bonstockian fighters who prove to be NOT modern tech (those things from Nozomi Station)

Meanwhile, Ravenhawk fighters provoke dogfights with Bonstockian ABLs, which are quickly destroyed by disruptors and energy missiles.

Crowds in Maropian Coast find themselves strafed with spreads of nonlethal barf-waves, which are delivered via re-entry pods traveling five times the speed of sound.

Ravenhawks travel twelve times the speed of sound in atmosphere, as do Zulu Vektors. They can dogfight extremely well, and both planes are atmospheric and interplanetary.

ooc: ABLs destroyed. Godmodder. Only I can post my losses. I am prepared to ignore you.

ic: Crowds in Maropian Coast do not panic. Someone with a Kalishnikov shoots to the sky. Though bombarded by non-lethal weaponry, the Maropians stick it out, and start singing again, as more come to join their ranks.

OOC:Nuclear arsonal? I dont have a nuclear arsonal in Japann anymore... you guys blew it too bits and I detonated the remaining one.... unless you mean my arsonal in Red Tide... In which case you would be god modding

It was obvious now... Red Tides leader was a nutter....he had ordered a scorched earth campaign. Rice fields were torched, bridges were blown, civilians were shot and mutilated, factories, skyscrapers,powerplants, and airsrtrips were blown up. Red Tide was obviously adopting the policy "if we cant have it nobody can"

Then a whole LOAD of IRBM launches were detected in the Red Tide mainland. 1000 IRBMs lifted off and sped towards various targets in Japann. They were all filled with every biological and chemical agent known too man... they could make Japann uninhabitable for years.

Bonstocknian fighters take off from their bases at Narita. If Red Tide will kill civilians, Bonstock will kill Red Tide.

F-22s fly low over the city, and unleash their missiles against Red Tide tanks.

The Riksdag gives a statment of condemnation to Red Tide for his actions. There is talk of a declaration of war.

ABLs and SDIs start engaging the Red Tide missiles.

"Sir, Red Tide has just unleashed missiles on Japann," said Lung, out of breath, after having run to Adolphus.

His face turned pale. He turned to a BSS agent standing behind him with a black briefcase.

"Bring me the football."

The agent brought the briefcase, and opened it. Inside3 were the codes to launch nuclear warheads.

He programmed the target for Red Tide. His hand hovered over the big red button which said "FIRE."

And suddenly, he couldn't do it. There were too many lives at stake. It would be the first time Bonstock had actually fired nuclear weapons at a foreign enemy.

"Sir?"

"Lung, I want you to do this with me." Lung put his hand over the red button. "On the count of three. One... Two... Three!" They both pressed the button. Adolphus looked up. "We should go to the shelters. Evacuate civilians to bomb shelters, and make sure we hav esupplies fo frech water. I need some time to myself."

He went down to the High Command bunker. The war plans were put into action. The target was Red Tide. With SDIs and ABLs engaging Red Tide missiles, Bonstocknian missiles prepared for the counter strike. 24 Ohio class submarines fired their missiles at Red Tide, and were joined by 450 ICBMs from silos in Bonstock. Civilians were evacuated to bomb shelters. 8 of the bombers took off from Nozomi Station, with nuclear bombs ready. Also going were 500 B-1Bs and 20 B-2s. One of the new bombers had a T-1 inside. They were ready to fire it.

As a formality, the Riksdag declared war on Red Tide. Bonstock was now alone, but hoping to secure peace.

Hopefully, Red Tide would be too shocked to reply to this...

Images from Red Tide:

http://www.dalitstan.org/journal/images/nuclear1.jpg

Adolphus sat in his small room in the bunker. He sat on his bed.

What have I done? he though. What have I done?.

He thought of all the little boys and girls playing at recess, only to look up to see a nuclear missile headed for them. He thought of all the women crying for their dead babies. He saw all the men sifting through the rubble for signs of life.

It made him feel like an animal. The only word he could think of to describe it was 'n00bish,' a word he invented on the spur of the moment (ooc: n00b is an ooc term, and including it here is sorta a misuse of the term).

He took out the last transmission. It said something about "use it wisely." He knew what it was she was talking about. The T-1. And a Bonstocknian bomber was headed for Red Tide with one.

I failed you, he thought to himself adressing a figment of his imagination who used to be a real person. I failed you.

He drew his service pistol from his coat pocket, and put it to his head. He sat there like that for a while, saying his last prayers. He put the pistol down, and went to write a suicide note. Then an image came to his mind.

"What do you think you are doing, Gus?" the image said.

He got up, looking at the figure. "Ms Hu, where did you come from?"

"That is not of your concern. But, when I made you my successor, I told you to use your power wisely."

"And at that I failed you. I apologize. Go, please."

"No. Your country needs you."

"I'm a failure. I just nuked our only ally in this war."

"Which is why your country needs you."

"How is that? Soon, there won't be a Bonstock. Or a Maropian Coast." He sat on his bed again. "I just released the T-1 upon the world. I'll be teh most hated war criminal ever."

The image leaned over, and sat next to him. "No. You did not do this."

"Ms. Hu, answer me one question. What happened to you?"

"Remember the rebel spacefleet?"

"Yes."

"I did not die on the mission in Port Yuko. I took a T-1 to the spacefleet."

He looked over. "How are you still here?"

"Just remember me, and I will always live. I now know what I did wrong on this Earth. Give your country all you can."

He leaned over to her, trying to embrace her. Then she disappeared.

"Do what you must for Bonstock." were her final words, as she faded into Adolphus's mind.

He took his pistol, looked at it for a second, and put it back into its holster. He walked outside to the High Command building, a detirmined man.

"Let us do this," he said.

Kang Woo nodded as he viewed the briefing table. "We came prepared well enough for street combat," he said motioning to the APC's and helicopter gunships. "The problem will be dealing with enemy armor and tanks. This isn't going to be simply just another Mogadishu."

He continued on. "I can take the forces I have with me now as well as your assigned units and be on the outskirts of Nagoya by dark, depending on the resistance we encounter along the way."

-Two hours later, between East Islandian HQ and Nagoya-

Military vehicles rumbled over the terrain, cleverly avoiding the narrow ribbon of concrete that marked a major road for fear of mines and ambushes. The ground force consisted of APC's, M2A1 tanks and whatever armor the East Islandian force had brought along. Flying in escort over them was a force of 23 gunships of Central Facehuggeria design.

Atop the APC's and tanks, soldiers sat behind the long barrels of their Browning .50 cal machine guns, watching for potential targets while tank crews kept a sharp lookout for enemy armor or antitank batteries.

Nagoya wasn't far off, but every man knew that a sharp fight loomed ahead. Finally South Dalania would re-enter the bloody fracas of combat, nearly 70 years after its last major engagement...

President Chen waits for the response. Something to indicate that they had recieved the message and were willing to go into detail.

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

OOC: If it's designed for high altitude interception (which means it would be quite bulky), why are you using it for ground attack and air superiority?

ATACMS guided rockets continue to pound ground forces, with parts of the beachhead coming under heavy pressure and taking high casualties. The troops on the beachhead are actives, as opposed to their conscripted opposition and hence more experienced and effective.

The SM-2 and ESSM umbrella continues to stop most of the missiles, but the WIGcraft that was earlier EMPed was destroyed due to the downing of it's ARC module.

Maropian airfields are targetted by another wave of Tomahawks. Although the Maropian F-38 is fast, they were outnumbered by the four wings of the supermanuverable F-36Ts on CAP.

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

On the border, MOABs are dropped on a section of the border 15km across. Taiwanese armour and Mech infantry carefully begin pouring into the other side, taking care to sweep the area of mines first. JSFs begin stealth strike missions on bunkers, pillboxes, and other forifications. Eurofighters armed with Brimstones begin strikes against enemy armour in support of the strike force. Like always, there are still three wings of F-36s in CAP.

Diplomatic Communique to Spyr's Allies
(Hudecia, _Taiwan, et al.)

The People's Republic of Spyr believes that we have been provided with a unique opportunity to achieve a lasting peace. We propose that we take advantage of our superior position to negotiate a lasting peace which, like Japan and Germany at the end of the second World War, will transform our enemies into peaceful allies.

Bonstock has begun to abandon much of its heavy equipment in Japann, with troop concentrations in Honshu and in Kyushu. These forces should be allowed to withdraw peacfully, without their heavier equipment (thus reducing their power-projection capablities). If needed, we might allow a division to remain in the Bonstockian administrative zone in Japann during the 365 days of reconstruction (if our plan for such is approved, and if Bonstock is included within it)... subordinate to the local Japannese authorities, of course.

We also propose that, given the fact that the people of Maropian Coast are Bonstockians through-and-through, any attempt to take that territory would be an imperialist act, contrary to our purposes and to the will of the native population. However, something must be done, and thus I propose that Bonstock have limits on the military assets in Maropian Coast, concentrating on a defensive force and perhaps local militias, and also that Bonstockian military shipping or aircraft be restricted from being present anywhere above north latitude 20. _Taiwan could negotiate trade and defence arrangements seperately to satisfy any remaining concerns.

Also, we should arrange for a treaty of nonaggression, where Bonstock swears to take no military action against us, or any imperialist expansions.

It is in all our interests to achieve peace, and we are now able to do so on our terms. This is an opportunity which should at least be considered.

The skies above Japann
The Spyran aircraft flying over Japann, after the detection of the Red Tide missiles, swing around and attempt to engage them before they reach target.

Captain Naito Moritaka guided his fighter towards target, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. It was possible to stop the missiles... but it wouldnt be easy.

"I sure hope Hudecia's Arrows are still in the air... I think theyre going to be neede for this..."

Spyran formations across Japann
Spyran officers are offering Bonstockians they encounter the opportunity to surrender, with assurance that, after disarmament and some processing time at a POW facility, they will be returned home to Bonstock.

-Telegram to Bonstock-

The government of Hudecia is willing to negotiate a ceasefire to allow Bonstockian troops to withdraw from Narita Airport. As Bonstock well knows, alliance forces could defeat the forces in Narita, however, the human cost would be unbearable. So, upon accepting this ceasefire Bonstockian troops will have 24 hours to get out of Japan without their heavy equipment.

-Tokyo-

Street fighting with Red Tide troops is most serious in Yokohama, however, Tokyo itself will escape most of the fighting. Hudecian troops, fearful of the launch of WMDs have begun evacuating the millions of residents into the underground tunnels of Tokyo.

The emporer has refused to leave the Palace, choosing to die rather than see his country destroyed.

Avro Arrow interceptors patrol the skies around Tokyo, Saitama and Chiba in an attempt to stop the Red Tide attack.

-Avro Arrow- In the skies north of Saitama-

"Copy that... alright all units, our targets have changed, we have inbound missiles closing fast, we are to stop them at all costs. Maintain attack positions, close up formation."

"Squadron leader, I have missiles coming into range..."

"Open fire"

Hudecian interceptors were effective however, they ran out of missiles before they could down all the IRBMs. The squadron leader swore as he gunned his Arrow, reaching speeds up to Mach 3.5.

A single IRBM continued its fateful path towards Tokyo. The squadron leader swore as he gunned his Arrow, reaching speeds up to Mach 3.5.

-Northern Honshu-

Allied forces rush down after breaking the Sendai Line moving to join up with Spyr forces and to take as much land from Red Tide as possible.

-Hudecian High Command-

"Red Tide has launched IRBMs sir! None at us, all of them are at Japan!"

General Peter Bratislav stood in shock. "If Red Tide wishes to turn this into a nuclear war then we should reply in kind! Madam President, Bonstock has already launched their nuclear weapons, we should as well!"

The president sat with her head in her hands. "If we launch, what will it solve?"

Silence

"If we launch our nukes, what will it solve?" She repeated more forcibly this time. "Nothing, if we launch our nukes, it will solve nothing. Bonstock has already launched nukes at Red Tide, why should we? Now is not the time to escalate, because I AM NOT WILLING to escalate." Her voice cracked after yelling the last sentence. "Now is the time to negotiate with Bonstock.... the last offensive made our position of strength clear to them."

-Taiwan-

2 Hudecian armoured divisions make landfall and the 500 Challenger 2 tanks and 10 000 troops begin moving towards the Maropian Coast.

-Hudecian Broadcaster-

"With the news blackout ended we are pleased to report that allied forces have liberated Tokyo! In the north troops are pouring down, and in the south allied forces are in strong positions and advancing."

"There are rumours that the Hudecian government, eager to prevent more bloodshed will try to negotiate a final ceasefire with Bonstock..."

"There is also rumours that Red Tide is carrying out a 'scorched Earth' campaign against Japan. Although there is no confirmation of this. If this was true it might cause retaliation by Bonstock..."

-Telegram to Asian Alliance members and allies-

With Japan being quickly liberated perhaps now is the time to see if a negotiated settlement can be reached with Bonstock. Our position of strength has been made clear, and I believe that Bonstock would now be willing to concede on key areas like the Maropian Coast.

A small swift craft base and two missile batteries are on the Amami Islands; no real infantry forces are there, except a bunch of Marines who handle ship-ship interdiction.

Type 40 space fighters? Let me gues, they're made by Saab...

***********
The sky exploded into streams of fire as laser weaponry and missiles detonated high above the stratosphere, destroying several nuclear projectiles launched by Red Tide.

"Secure uplink complete. Preliminary scan finished, scan updated, complete....Final check kanryo," the operator reported to Premier Park. "Shall I send the message?"

Premier Park paused.

"Yes," she said, slowly. "Do it."

****
Message to Bonstock:

We are temporarily united by the threat of Red Tide; we will seal our pact by destroying him.

Maropian Coast will not be invaded, nor will the Sakishimas. Cast your imperialist pretences away, as well as your damned T1s.

We will not be held hostage by your bombs, and we will most certainly not fight another war to finish uncompleted business. You call for a war against Red Tide while your agents are still in my country, and while you still harbor such loathesome weapons and doubtless the intent to use them as well.

What do you expect us to do? Do you want war, or peace? Realize that the time for rhetoric is over, and your contradictory actions more than obscure your intentions. At best, your actions are confused.

At worst, you are trying to decieve us as you did on your Lunar New Year offensive.

If you continue, then there will be no dawn for Bonstock...

*****
"Unconventional warfare?" Specialist Norozyev asked. He laughed, and his partner, a small, lithe Malaysian fromt he Pathet Cong, laughed as well.

"We'll see how well a bunch of random Marines blend into the countryside," his partner retorted, slinging his Type 97 over his shoulder.

The men laughed, and disappeared into the night, tracking Bonstockian forces.

******
A van pulled up next to the Bonstockian agent. He was quickly and roughly shoved into the vehicle, and the van sped away, leaving dozens of stunned passerby looking at them strangely.

They strapped him to a chair and shot him full of liquid interrogation serum, and began questioning him for hours, using all sorts of techniques, more mental than physical, on him, including sensory deprivation when he fails to break the first time.

No human can withstand sensory deprivation for more than forty eight hours, max...

The cat was out of the bag now...

******
Islandian troops join Taiwanese forces in their push towards MC.

"Doesnt seem like we're getting out of this alive," Major An remarked. "Any regrets?" he asked, turning to his men.

They frowned, and shrugged.

"WOuld have banged more women," Ichikawa replied.

Trung smacked him, and he grimaced.

"Never mind," An said, rolling his eyes.

They filed into the laboratory and quickly barricaded themselves, turning the place into a fortress, grabbing scientists as hostages.

An sighed; all his life, he learned to fight terrorists.

Now he was one in a way, but then again, he supposed Bonstock was a greater terrorist, since he had betrayed them before, and would again...

The death toll was staggering: 768 million killed and surely more would die from the radiation. The entire Red Tide arsonal(6000 ICBMs and 8000 IRBMs) was launched agianst Bonstock, East Islandia, Xiagou, Japann and Taiwan. It didnt matter how many missiles of the original launche survived because this garunteed that-even with missile defense- every one of these target countries would be destroyed.

OOC:Just too let you know the IRBMs will hit after the nukes are done blowin up... That way the heat from the nukes dont wipe out the chemical and biological agents in the IRBMs

The Bonstocknian government issued the ceasefire terms:

Bonstocknian forces be allowed to withdraw without heavy equipment, with the exception of one division that would be used to secure a Bonstocknian occupation area.

Bonstock will sign a non-aggression pact with _Taiwan, and agree to make no more territory grabs in East Asia.

Bonstock will participate in the reconstruction of Japann.

Bonstock will agree to destroy all T-1 bombs.

Bonstock will participate with East Islandia and the Asian Resistance to destroy Red Tide.

The agent, in the van, put his tongue to a molar. From a small gap in his teeth, he got out a small poison unit. He bit on it, and was dead in seconds.

****

Maropian defense forces, with only their front lines hurt by the _Taiwanese, withdraw to the second line fo trenches, and start firing everything they've got at the invaders. Some men strap themselves to bombs, and run up to the tanks, blowing themselves up.

The several meter wide monitoring screens that surrounded the North Wall of the large room displayed the tactical situation.

"Sir, we have incoming ICBMs!!"

"Trajectory??"

"East Islandia, major population centers..."

The CINCOP (Commander-in-Chief Operations) took a closer look at the data, on his personal computer and on the large screens.

"Jesus, there are so many...", he accidentially said outloud. This alarmed almost everyone in the room. Their Commander was not known to show emotions. Never before, in his last 10 years of service in Missile Defense, had he uttered such words. It shocked him almost as much as it did them.
"ROE 903, ROE 903...Implicate it immediately!!!"

Acknowledgements came from every corner of the room as almost two-hundred voices spoke at once.

"I want you to defend East Islandia like it was your daughter's virginity!!", added the Commander, showing his north-urban upbringing.

A total of 3,000 Aster-T missiles were launched at the incoming ICBM's that were in-route to East Islandia.

Orbital Defenses became suddenly active, as boosters let loose in the dark void. Satellites launched thousands of Fletchette at the incoming missiles as they passed on their ballistic orbits, and then lasers began to target them as they came farther out of the earth's atmosphere.

"Sir, we have received word from High Command...we are to proceed with full scale nuclear retaliation", announced a Major, rather dumbfounded.

God Help Us, General Bertolucci thought to himself. "Okay ladies and gentlemen...this is not a drill. This is the moment you have all trained for."

6,000 DF-41 ICBM's were launched at major military installations in Red Tide...many of which are, regrettably, nearby major population centers. 3,000 Orbital Launched Nuclear Missiles were launched from satellites at Red Tide's capital. A further 3,000 of the new Apocalisse ICBM's were launched at Red Tide.

SSBN-726 Ohio class Submarines, in position around the Pacific Rim, fired 2,000 SL-IRBMs at positions in Red Tide, as well as 1,000 Trident II D-5 Fleet Ballistic Missiles.

Orbital Launched Nuclear Missile Attack Platform, codenamed Aurora (http://www.nada.kth.se/~asa/bilder/eurydice2.jpg)



ooc: Not by any means the entirity of my arsenal. This is just first strike....

Red Tide, your IRBM's won't be able to reach us......Intermediate Rangers...

death... death was everywhere in Red Tide... the resulting Agrigento attack wiped out what remained of the Red Tide population. 1.379 billion people lay dead. Some people were reduced too ashes, others only had their skeletons remaining. A crashed chopper lay on the ground, and in front of it lay the Supreme Commander... dead.

OOC:Well I had fun RPing this... now it looks like my nations been totally wiped out its time too start a new. Im thinking about starting a space nation...

Night fell, and Bonstocknian forces start their withdrawl from Narita. Planes fly in to take out support units of I Corps, along with Air Force units as convoys of HMMWVs move cross country towards the Sendai line.

Littoral combat ships move in, just south of the Sendai line. Suddenly, from hidden positions just south of the Sendai line, from the mountains, II Corps emerges with all its tanks. They press to the beach, and there the crews evacuate their equipment. Knowing that Bonstock was going to replace the equipment anyway, the equipment was unceremoiniously blown to bits by 15,000 pound bombs.

The convoy then went south to Kyushu and Shikoku, at incredible speeds of 55 knots. They picked up some 100,000 Bonstocknian Marines.

In all, that night, some 250,000 Bonstocknian troops simply left, blowing up their equipment. They left positions around Narita and the Sendai lines empty, leaving them for East Islandia to waste bombs on.

Hopefully, the transition was so smooth that no one would know of the withdrawl.

Tanks were left around Narita, with detonation charges that would detonate when they were attacked.

The convoy then goes south, then east, then south again, and reformes up. None of them are lost. Bonstocknian forces withdrew without any incident.

And thus ended Bonstocknian presence in Japann. And Bonstock learned lessons on war that it would not soon forget.

Meanhwhile, another round of nuclear missiles were fired at Red Tide.

Adolphus walked to his controllers.

"What is the status?"

"Sir, we've got a thousand missiles headed for Bonstock, and perhaps another thousand at Maropian Coast or Taiwan. We're not sure which."

"Well, lets beat Red Tide down. Put into motion our plans to defend from a missile attack. I want everyone in bunkers and shelters. We will fight this off."

He then walked over, looking at the board. Thousands of missiles were headed to tehir targets.

"Contact Zecro and Skynet. Launch our other nukes. Detonate the T-1."

"Yes, sir."

A bomber dropped the T-1 on Red Tide.

ooc: I intend on this being Bonstock's finest hour...

ic:

ABLs rise up to engage the missiles. On the ground, the last line of defense waited: A thousand SA-18 sites, ringing Port Yuko and Maropian Coast.

Adolphus left the bunker, and walked over to his air defense troops, standing in front of their missile launchers.

He took a sword from his side, and waved it in the air.

"Men, Bonstock has faced many dangers. But none more devestating then this. Someday, perhaps, Bonstock will not be here. Someday, there will be no Bonstocknians, no Maropians. But not today. Not today. Bonstock will survive this! TO THE MISSILES! FOR BONSTOCK!"

The soldiers cheered, but there was not enought time. They quickly went to their missile launchers, and prepared to engage the missiles. Adolphus went back to his HMMWV, with Lung waiting. He looked at his laptop.

"And so it starts now, the battle for Bonstock."

Lung nodded his head.

Adolphus looked out. "Men, hold your fire until you see your targets!"

Lung looked shocked. "Sir! Are you sure?"

"Yes. I am sure."

the missiles began to approach. The SA-18s raised the launchers to firing positions. Adolphus looked out. Streaks of light appeared in the sky.

"Fire at will," he said.

The interceptors fired. The sound defened people. With Lung driving, Adolphus got out the machine gun hatch. He took out his pistol, and fired it into the air. "Come on men! For Bonstock!"

The soldiers continued firing, encouraged that their leader was present. Missiles shot up at the sky, streaking across the dawn sky to intercept the ICBMs.

The missiles were all salvoed. But still more ICBMs were on the horizon.

"RELOAD! RELOAD!" shouted Adolphus.

Missile reloaders came, but it seemed as if they might be too late.

"COME ON! GET THOSE MISSILES HERE!"

Then they came up. Some one, an officer, got up from his reloader. "GO TOP SPEED! BONSTOCK DEPENDS ON IT!"

They went as fast as they could go, speeding up, oblivious to the world around them. They sped up, for all of Bonstock depended on it.

It was as if the world were to end. Smoke from the missiles was everywhere. But the reloaders managed to get to their location. All the missiles were reloaded.

"FIRE AT WILL!" shouted Adolphus from his HMMWV. "FIRE FOR BONSTOCK! FOR MAROPIAN COAST! FOR THE SAKISHIMAS! FOR EVERY BONSTOCKNIAN SOUL WHO HAS EVER WALKED THIS EARTH!" He pulled out a Kalishnikov, and held it up, as Lung continued driving him along the line of missile launchers.

The missiles were now reloaded, but the ICBMs were closer then ever. It would be only a matter of time.

All of the missiles fired. Smoke filled everywhere. Screams of missiles filled the air, as the missiles filled the sky. For a moment, all of Bonstock was silent as the smoke cleared. Adolphus looked to the sky, as did all of Bonstock. And they were all united. Every heart and soul. All 2.4 billion people of Bonstock, Maropian Coast, and the Sakishimas.

And the smoke cleared. There would be no armeggedon today.

Air defense soldiers came out, cheering. Adolphus looked to the sky, and fired his AK-47 at the air. Soldiers hugged eachother. Civilians thanked the high heavens, and screamed for joy.

Adolphus looked at the sea, the now peaceful sea. He saw, on the beach, an image. Adolphus saluted. The image bowed, and disapeared forever.

Hudecian Avro Arrow interceptors are kept busy by the Red Tide onslaught trying to protect major industrial centers. However, smaller population centers were for the most part left to fend for themselves.

Tokyo/Chiba/Yokohama/Narita would be protected by the Arrow interceptors from the navy, Sendai/Sapporo would be defended by the remaining Avro Arrows.

-Tokyo-

The quadron leader hit the overthrusters in his Arrow, although he was out of missiles he would use his own plane to stop the IRBM. He reached mach 4 and pulled up almost beside the missile. As his engines began to melt he slammed his fighter into the missile, causing it to explode, and sending fiery debris down on Saitama.

His squadron meanwhile refueled and rearmed before taking off again to intercept the next wave of missiles.

-HN Hclav-

Kimura stood in the command room as reports of missile hits came in. His interceptors could not be everywhere, nor could they stop all the missiles. Nuclear ICBMs would receive priority. Then, if they had time, the chemical and biological IRBMs. THe majority of Tokyo's population was being evacuated to the underground tunnel network for safety.

His troops had been ordered to disregard Bonstock's evacuation. Although they had noticed some signals that Bonstockian troops were leaving, they had ignored them to focus on destroying Red Tide and defending the major centers from the nuclear attack.

The Spyran pilots were desperate. With over seven hundred fighters in the sky, plus missile interceptor batteries on some ships and ground positions near Sendai, Osaka, and Niigata, they were able to intercept a large number of missiles, but it was a difficult task.

Suddenly, moving at incredible speeds, more Spyran fighters swept in across the Sea of Japan. They were using solid-fuel rocket boosters to reach incredible speed (a tactic which had been devised in the desperate days when Spyr was threatened with invasion from the [OOC: future tech] Star Empire of Thelas). It was a risky tactic, with numerous dangers, but the Spyran government had decided that it was worth the sacrifice to save Japann. One of the rocket-boosted planes suffered a catastrophic malfunction as it sped forward, spiralling out of control before detonating, but the others reached intercept distance and attempted to engage.

In the command bunkers beneath the Spyran capital of Sithin, the President and military command waited anxiously, watching real-time satellite footage of Japann. To save that nation from imperialism, only to lose it in a cloud of toxins... that could not be allowed to happen. But, all they could do was wait and hope.

Within seconds of the Red Tide ICBM launch, thousands of SM-3 missiles are launched at the ICBMs from bases in Sino. The Chinese SDI network moved into place and begun downing more ICBMs. ABLs begun targetting the remnants.

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

OOC: Trenches? This isn't WWI. Trench warfare is too vulnerable too aircraft.

MBTs crash over the trenches, with suicide bombers having little effect on their armour. MLRS continue to launch ATACMS rockets further to eliminate enemy troops. It was hell on the frontlines. As if this wasn't enough already, A-10s begin dropping napalm and cluster bombs onto enemy troops.

Further into MC, MOABs are dropped onto troop concentrations.

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

Several parts of the beachhead begin to falter under enemy pressure. Parts of the beachhead have been divided, with a brief pause in rocket bombardmnent for resupply.

Hudecian troops begin landing troops into Taiwanese beacheads to support their allies.

10 000 troops
500 Challenger 2s
20 Jaguar 2 Tank Destroyers
20 152mm Self propelled Howitzers

The Hudecian government is also beginning to move its fleet from Japan to Taiwan to support their movements.

Tokyo

With Bonstockian resistance having melted away, and the flocks of fighter aircraft clearing the skies of Red Tide ordnance, several Spyran tilt-rotor transports swept in over Tokyo and offloaded their passengers at key locations. Clerks entered the Diet and the Municipal Government tower, while security troops took up positions outside, in an attempt to gather the data needed for the reconstruction of Japann's political systems. Arond key television and radio studios and transmitters, technicians speedeily effected repairs, preparing the way for Japannese media to begin announcing details of the liberation and reconstruction to as wide an audience as possible. Clerks also arrived at command posts for the Japannese military and Red Tide/Bonstockian forces, searching for any recoverable documents... it would be important to know as much as possible, and to be aware of those Japannese political figures who harboured imperialist ambitions, so that they could be prevented from misleading their people again.

OOC
you wouldnt even have 15000 pounder if i hadnt used them, Bonstock...

but that was excellent RPing.. perhaps Hu Li wasnt THAT much of a despot...

******
Days later...

As the last of the nuclear tipped missiles plummeted into the sea and onto various deserted islands around Tropical Paradise, Premier Park sighed. Thank God for the Aggies, she thought, and smiled. And for Minlee, since the girl had managed to get Sang back to her in one piece.

"Minnie?" an expectant voice asked, from the bathroom. Hyemin turned to see her husband, grin as wide as his arms, turn to her.

She ran towards him and threw herself into his arms as the room exploded into cheering.

*****
The men watched the Bonstockians leave, quietly and quickly.
"What do you think?" one of hte shadows asked his partner.
"Not sure," he replied. "but leave them be. We've all had enough for now."

They watched them for a few moments more, and melted into the underbrush.
****
An sighed as he leaned against the counter. "News from command: the war is over," he said.

"Not for us it isnt," Lizzie Trung replied, tightening her grip on her assault rifle. "But what do we do from here?"

"I dont know," An replied. "Is negotiating out of the question?"

His men looked at him strangely.

"Or maybe i'll ask for instructions," he said, reaching for his radio.

Now, the Bonstocknian convoy turns south again, and changes course to the Sakishimas. They fire a volley of 300 scramjet missiles at the WIGs and Hudecians.

An ultimatum is sent to Hudecia and _Taiwan:

Maropian Coast is Bonstocknian territory, and the citizens are prided in their role in Bonstocknian history. We will never withdraw.

Guerrilla soldiers take RPGs and Javelin anti-tank missiles. Hiding in the forests, they ambush the advancing tanks.

Meanwhile, the Smerch launchers come out from hiding. 720 fire at the _Taiwanese invasion from the mountains, another 750 fire at the beachheads.

The Maropian Defense Navy comes out to sea, with all its 120 Visby corvettes. They fire more missiles at the WIG transports.

540 F-22 raptors take off from dispersed bases, mostly highways, and go to attack the Taiwanese advances.

Partisans slip behind enemy lines, to gather information on enemy movements.

Meanwhile, the Bonstocknian III Corps makes a counter offensive against the beachheads. After a quick but brutal bombardment from 432 Crusader artillery systems, in which all the shells they could put out were used, 180 Apache helicopters storm the shores, saturating the defenses with TOW and chain gun fire. Then 1205 Leapord IIXes, with long range 135mm guns, and 1515 CV-90 IFVs decend upon the beachheads.

Fighting is fierce, and brutal. In a few minutes, 56 Apaches are downed, 98 Leapord tanks are lost, and 139 CV-90s are destroyed.

But they continue fighting, decending on the MLRS systems and tanks on the Taiwanese and Hudecian beachheads.

There will be no celebrations in Bonstock until Maropian Coast is free from invasion.

ooc: _Taiwan, if you accuse me of RF style RPing, then you ought to look at your own RP.

you wouldnt even have 15000 pounder if i hadnt used them, Bonstock...

They say that imitation is the greatest form of flattery!

A 16 year old boy in Maropian Coast listened to the radio. "Rise up against your warlike leaders."

"Dumb old _Taiwanese dipshit." He took an RPG, and found some of his friends, with Kalishnikovs.

They walked silently into the mountains, knowing this terrain well. They creeped into an old hideout, from which they had a commanding view of a mountain pass.

There were the _Taiwanese advancing.

They fired the RPG. Then some one esle, on the other side of the convoy, fired two Javelin missiles: one at the front tank and one at the back tank. Then 60mm mortars began firing at the convoy as the men retreated.

I will agree to this, provided that NO allied troops be allowed on the borders. On both sides.

I AMK SO SORRY. I WAS VERY BUSY THIS WEEKEND. Please, someone sumarize this whole thread for me? I need to get the info.

We, the Parliament and representatives of the People's Federal Republic of Xiaguo speak out to all who partcipate in this war.
We, a united people under the belief of moral standards have come across a great enemy. Bonstock. The nation full of weapons, pride, and strength has gone completely beyond the humane and moral treatment of the United Peoples of the world.
Bonstock, having so being powerful and great has betrayed everyone despite having tried to make peace. We vote that we shall begin a full scale war. Despite the fact that Xiaguo is not as strong as its allies, we are strong enough as a nation of intelects, morals, standards, honor, and unity. To unite us under the Asian Front, we ask all allies to condemn Bonstock and Red Tide and also call for the unity among the allies fighting and put the war effort as powerful as the war itself.
-GOOD LUCK ALLIES. BE STRONG. THINK RIGHTEOUS. KEEP THE MORALES UP!THINK WIN. THINK VICTORY!
-To the allies. From your allied nation, Xiaguo.



Hope we win! VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV
To boost up the morale!

Bonstock reiterates its call for peace to Xiagou.

ooooh can i join in? this promises to be fun...

ooooh can i join in? this promises to be fun...
I'm under the impression that the war is about to end, but that's just me.

The chatter over the radios had announced the end of conflict in Japann. With the evacuation of Bonstock's forces from Japann and the mop-up of the remaining Red Tide forces underway, the Asian Alliance had secured liberation for Japann. The focus of the war now turned south to _Taiwan as pitched battles erupted between Bonstockian forces emplaced on the island and _Taiwanese troops. Already the South Dalanian naval forces that had previously been emplaced around Japann were heading south to assist in artillery support operations against the Bonstockian beachheads.

The war had cost the Asian Alliance dearly, however South Dalania had largely escaped unscathed. Aside from the deaths of thirty marines in the assault on Nagoya (which had only been cleared following the enemy evacuation) and the loss of two hundred men to a Red Tide missile attack, South Dalania had returned from combat with over 3/4 of its deployment force intact. The country itself had also escaped devastation, despite being so close to Japann, which had been torn apart by the conflict. It's cities lay buried under rubble, its population cut in half, its fields fallow, its children starving.

But the South Dalanians were committed to stay and rebuild Japann. Despite the history of conflict and the shadow of colonialism, South Dalanians pledged themselves to the reconstruction of their neighbor. With the war not even 48 hours over, corporations in South Dalania were already assembling donations and relief teams for dispatch to the stricken nation.

-East Islandian HQ, Japann-

His battle fatigues dirty and mussed and his hair a mess, a tired-looking Kang Woo climbed out of the Humvee that had dropped him and his personal guard off following the capture of Nagoya. Slinging his SG-552 compact assault rifle over his shoulder, the general pushed aside the flap and entered the command post.

An air of jubilation still hung around the command post as Kang Woo entered. Spotting General Sung bent over the charts displaying the remaining enemy positions, he smiled as he tried to call her name over the hubbub in the air. Despite his best efforts, he couldn't get her attention.

For a split second however, his eyes met with hers. A smile crossed his face as he leaned against the tent pole, his rifle still swinging at his side. She was tired-looking, fatigued and wearing a standard BDU, but she was still as beautiful as ever and had put in her share for her country.

Could she be the one?

He smiled to himself as he nodded once in her direction.

Japann
Spyran military units have begun to consolidate positions in Japann (for prefectural locations, refer to Spyr's reconstruction proposal. The units are gathering information from the local populace on what needs to be rebuilt and where, as well as what goods are in short supply.

Spyran aid workers and supplies have begun crossing the Sea of Japan, to provide assistance to the Japannese, while pre-war prefctural governors and Diet members are being sought out and restored to their positions. Salaries are distributed to Japannese police and bureaucrats, so that they may return to work.

Spyr
The President reviewed events nervously. There were, amongst Bonstock and extended territories, several billion people who shared a national bond. This defeat would likely, given such nationalism, cause the people to overthrow their current regime, but occupation would be impossible, and undesireable... Japann was liberated, Red Tide was a sheet of irradiated glass, and unless his allies intended the same fate for Bonstock, it made no sense to continue fighting... each bullet that was fired at them made the Bonstockians less and less amenable to adpoting peaceful policies in future, regardless of their future government.
_Taiwan must be defended from incursions... but he was unwilling to send Spyrans to die in a misguided attempt to occupy the Maropian Coast. Another solution had to be found.

In the meantime, Spyr would concentrate on rebuilding the infrastructure and government of Japann.

The beachhead troops paid dearly for the resupply break and were taken back by the size of the counterattack. Forced to retreat from parts of the beachhead, AP and AT mines are scattered as they retreat. Troops have begun retreating onto their transports, while M1A2 MBTs continue engaging the Leopards. Personell armed with stingers begin engaging.

Three WIGcraft that were unable to take off in time were cut down by by the Visby corvettes. One limps home at a speed of 50 knots, while the other two are downed.

Following the resupply, a second wave of 1,200 supersonic cruise missiles are launched at Maropian targets, notably naval facilities, oil facilities, and airbases.

The Taiwanese advance from the border has been stalled.
-----------------------------------------

President Chen has signalled that he is willing to offer a ceasefire to Bonstock following their retreat from Japann and Bonstock's call for peace in order to discuss terms of a long term peace plan.

-Maropian Coast- Taiwanese Beachead-

The newly arrived and green Hudecian troops were taken aback by the massive size of the assault.

The Challenger 2 tanks engaged with the Taiwanese M1A2s but suffered heavy casualties.

279 dead
477 wounded
29 captured/missing
57 Challenger 2s destroyed
68 Challenger 2s immobilized

Offshore Hudecian destroyers protect the AOR transports with Harpoon and Sea Spearrow missiles.

Second, no Bonstocknians will stand war crimes trials.

No repartations will be payed unless Bonstock is allowed an equal part in reconstruction.

I will agree to this, provided that NO allied troops be allowed on the borders. On both sides.

1) This is unclear, but as of now, Bonstockians will be deemed 'criminals' for ordering the firing of missiles into Taiwanese cities. This happened on the Islandian side also, but only once, and it was immediately halted pending Bomb Damage Assessment Reports and the tonnage and size of weaponry used on near-civilian areas were reduced, unlike Bonstock, which kept advancing and shooting up civilians.

2) Reparations will be paid to Taiwan, and Japan. As for Bonstock allowed an equal share in reconstruction?

When did defeated imperialists get to pick where and what they will do? You probably will get a part in reconstruction, but we will dictate where you will do that, and you did not have an equal part at all in teh war. The brunt of hte fighting agst the original enemy, Japann, fell on Sinoese, Agrigentian, Islandian, and Xiannese shoulders, not yours.

Earlier, you said that Bonstock would agree to the role and location that the Alliance assigns them; here you are taking those words back. Could it be that you have a change of heart, or was it that you never intended to do that in the first place?

3) This is largely Taiwan's prerogative. You destroyed their homes, ravaged their cities, and now you demand that no allied troops be allowed on the border? So what, then you'll have a few hundred divisions there and then overrun the undefended positions?

Absolutely unacceptable. In conclusion, your position dictates that you are not truly willing to clear your hands of this business, and while it is true that war crimes are very unclear and have yet to be decided, the other objectives have shown us how stubborn Bonstock is, and just how they might rise up again, in another episode of backstabbing that is not unfamiliar.

Also, a third term is added, although it doesnt mean much;
Bonstock and the Alliance will sign a non aggression pact once the war is over and Bonstock agrees to repair what it had damaged.

*********
Meanwhile, Islandian troops in the Taiwanese offensive have completely halted, and General Sung has asked the Taiwanese to do the same. Premier Park, via diplomatic channels, has asked the MC garrison to stop fighting, and has put in place a cease fire, enforced by orbital artillery guns of the West Coral Sea armed forces, who pledged earlier that they will forcibly stop any assaults with waves of barf gas, EMPs, and if necessary, deadly force (lasers).

Second, no Bonstocknians will stand war crimes trials.

No repartations will be payed unless Bonstock is allowed an equal part in reconstruction.

I will agree to this, provided that NO allied troops be allowed on the borders. On both sides.

2) Reparations will be paid to Taiwan, and Japan. As for Bonstock allowed an equal share in reconstruction?

When did defeated imperialists get to pick where and what they will do? You probably will get a part in reconstruction, but we will dictate where you will do that, and you did not have an equal part at all in teh war. The brunt of hte fighting agst the original enemy, Japann, fell on Sinoese, Agrigentian, Islandian, and Xiannese shoulders, not yours.

Earlier, you said that Bonstock would agree to the role and location that the Alliance assigns them; here you are taking those words back. Could it be that you have a change of heart, or was it that you never intended to do that in the first place?

3) This is largely Taiwan's prerogative. You destroyed their homes, ravaged their cities, and now you demand that no allied troops be allowed on the border? So what, then you'll have a few hundred divisions there and then overrun the undefended positions?

Absolutely unacceptable. In conclusion, your position dictates that you are not truly willing to clear your hands of this business, and while it is true that war crimes are very unclear and have yet to be decided, the other objectives have shown us how stubborn Bonstock is, and just how they might rise up again, in another episode of backstabbing that is not unfamiliar.

Also, a third term is added, although it doesnt mean much;
Bonstock and the Alliance will sign a non aggression pact once the war is over and Bonstock agrees to repair what it had damaged.

Meanwhile, Islandian troops in the Taiwanese offensive have completely halted, and General Sung has asked the Taiwanese to do the same. Premier Park, via diplomatic channels, has asked the MC garrison to stop fighting, and has put in place a cease fire, enforced by orbital artillery guns of the West Coral Sea armed forces, who pledged earlier that they will forcibly stop any assaults with waves of barf gas, EMPs, and if necessary, deadly force (lasers).

Second, no Bonstocknians will stand war crimes trials.

No repartations will be payed unless Bonstock is allowed an equal part in reconstruction.

I will agree to this, provided that NO allied troops be allowed on the borders. On both sides.

Hudecian troops in Taiwan will halt to respect the ceasefire asked by E. Islandia. However, we maintain our support for Taiwan, if Taiwan chooses to continue its struggle against war criminals we will support them.

-Tokyo-

The 1st Expedionary Division and 3rd Infantry Divisions load up onto transports to begin the trip home.

The 7th Infantry, 4th Expeditionary and 2nd Armoured Divisions load up to be transported to Taiwan.

The remaining divisions continue to clear debris and help in reconstruction in Tokyo and surrounding areas. The 1st Air Corps stations itself at Narita Airport but reports are that they intend to quickly leave.

-Liberal Democratic Party Headquarters-

With the liberation of Tokyo, the Liberal Party tries to rebuild its political organization. However, the task is daunting as they search for credible leaders.

Bonstocknian forces agree to a ceasefire.

Reparations will be payed to Taiwan, totalling 25 billion dollars of aid for reconstruction, provided that _Taiwan and Bonstock sign a non agression pact.

Since Bonstock did not do much damage to Japann, we feel that we need not pay reparations for that. But, we did manage to sieze 40 billion USD in Red Tide assets in Bonstock. We will pay those for Japannese reconstruction. We do not care which part of Japann we must rebuild.

ooc: We're not defeated. We're just offering peace because we don't see much of a purpose in continueing.

East Coral Sea's orbital artillery guns are targetted by the Bonstocknian spacefleet. If they fire, they will be silenced. Quickly.

ooc: for composition, go to Klonor's store.

Diet Building, Tokyo
The Spyran clerks searching documents finally unearth the data whose retrieval was given top priority... the last census of Japann, vital for the quick arrangement of elections, and records of political debate and voting in the pre-war Diet. From these records, it would be possible to determine where imperialist sentiments had lain in the Japannese government.

[OOC: Let us not forget that this war started with Japann declaring its intentions to recommence imperialism in Asia. While a post from Japann himself is likely needed here, I suspect that, since the Japannese PM spearheaded the movement, the Diet majority must have supported such a position. And, as any student of Japanese politics knows, Diet majority pretty much = LDP. Which makes the LDP an imperialist party, unless the revisionist-conservatives got lucky in an election. Fixing Japann is going to me more than a matter of holding new elections... we also need to find out where culpability for the original imperialismlies...]

Proposal from the Spyran government
We suggest that all involved powers send representatives to a negotiation, during which a ceasefire shall remain in place. We respectfully suggest, with permission of the Japannese authorities, that this meeting occur in Tokyo, at Nakajima teahouse in Hama Detatched Palace Garden.

At this meeting, we can begin to outline our respective national interests and positions, and negotiate a settlement acceptable to all sides, so that no more lives are lost.

-Tokyo-

Commander Kimura strides into the new Tokyo office for the Hudecian Armed Forces.

He greets the guards at the front and the Hudecian officers gathered inside.

"Although new elections must be held, we must first take a national census to create eligible voter lists. We must also help the national parties regain stature if we are to show the Japanese people that democracy actually works."

"Old party leaders have seen their nation destroyed and their young people killed. If this has not changed their vision for Japan then I believe nothing will. But now is not the time to reopen old wounds and perpetrate a witch-hunt. Now is the time for reconciliation."

"Hudecia will agree to the proposed negotiations. Enough of our young men and women have died."

East Coral Sea's orbital artillery guns are targetted by the Bonstocknian spacefleet. If they fire, they will be silenced. Quickly.

ooc: for composition, go to Klonor's store.

Get it right, its West Coral Sea. And if my Islandian counterpart is too much of a spineless bitch to teach you some manners in humility, I sure will.

Thirty Sekhmet class swift cruisers, three five km long Assault Interdictors of the Paramount Harmony class, five Nioro class ships, and twelve Stellar Dream class cruisers drift into Earth orbit, systems active and a starfighter screen consisting of Zulu Vektors launched.

Klonor built or not, WCS forces stand ready to crush the enemy, if they decide to act up again and use their notmodtechbutfuturetechbullshit forces against the alliance.

*****

Zulu Vektors and Ravenhawks scream over the skies, patrolling for Bonstockian hypersonic bombers. Bonstockian space fighters, inferior in every way, have failed to inflict a single loss on the patrolling WCS forces so far, except for a pair of stray fighters that collided with another fast flying object, probably one of those fast bombers fielded by Bonstock.

Strike fighters stand by, preparing for strikes on any and all Bonstockian targets. The WCS Parliament is not known for trying to be nice to its enemies, unlike its... weaker Islandian counterparts.

OOC: Besides the Nuclear Blast that occured in Red Tides part of Japann (the start of the Nuclear War) did any nuclear bombs actually hit Japann?

OOC: Finally! Back from a long camping trip and ready to continue this RP. Anyway, what has happened during my absence (can't be bothered reading all those pages of posts).

I heard that Red Tide got hit pretty badly with ICBMs (LOL!), I guess Sino wouldn't mind firing a few. LOL! Also there's some crap about Lee Tung Hui in this thread too.

Please give me the details

OOC 2: Did anyone find that joke I made about the 'fly' funny?

ooc: That's it. I'm officially IGNORING West Coral Sea. I don't care for a space godmod stat-wank war. I would have rather had this whole war be careful diplomacy on my part, partly because I was having too much fun flirting with East Islandian women. If I'm not correct, Modern Napoleon is dead now because of neglect. But oh well.

My hypersonic bombers are no more then research prototypes mostly fit for reconaissence. Sorta like the "Aurora" if that thing does indeed exist.

And my fighters are nothing more then a high speed interceptor. It goes Mach 5 in short bursts. The Islandian H-9 can go Mach 4. I figure if EI uses the H-9, I can use the F-38.

Iuthia, I don't think that any of the missiles hit. My SDIs were quick to engage them, followed by my nuclear strike on Red Tide.

ic:

Following the agreements by Hudecia, East Islandia, Spyr, and possibly _Taiwan, President Adolphus has called for a peace treaty to be signed at a location of choice. Port Yuko is offered as an option, but it may be in East Islandia or Xiaguo, or wherever. Perhaps on neutral ground.

Bonstock agrees to repair damage caused by Red Tide in Tokyo, and has also agreed to sign a non aggression pact with the Asian Resistance.

OOC: So nobody is interested in telling me what the hell happened?

An update

-Japan-

All Bonstockian and Red Tide troops have either fled the country or are dead. Hudecian troops currently occupy Tokyo but their presence there is rapidly diminishing. Narita Airport now hosts Hudecian fighters but is open to all allies as is Tokyo.

Japanese politics is being rebuilt.

Spyr has proposed that the peace negotiations take place in Tokyo.

-Taiwan-

Bonstock tried to level Taipei in a series of missile attacks. Taiwan responded with an invasion of Maropian Coast. Some Hudecian troops are playing a supporting role. Currently a cease fire is in effect.

-Red Tide-
A sheet of glass... need I say more?

-If I missed anything please add it.

The Bonstocknians give one last condition: before a peace treaty is signed, all Taiwanese and Asian Resistance troops must withdraw from Maropian Coast.

ooc: That's it. I'm officially IGNORING West Coral Sea. I don't care for a space godmod stat-wank war.

A) My nuclear strike completely annihilated Red Tide, yours occured too late. While I am not proud of killing over a billion people the glory and guilt of that belongs to me.

B) Your Spacefleet, purchased or not from Klonor is IGNORED....
As are your HyperSoars....I dont feel like whipping mine out...and simply bc other tech would have to catch upto them...

http://www.angelfire.com/ill/agrigento/hypersoar.bmp


C) Adolphus will be tried for War Crimes, whether you turn him over or not....

Judging from the progress, the Sinoese Military Junta does not recognize the ceasefire between Taiwan and Maropian Coast and sees it as another act of treason by the shameful government of the rogue state by giving away Chinese land to another rogue state. Sino plans to invade Maropian Coast.

One of the terms of Bonstock's surrender would be to completely leave the area they call Maropian Coast (OOC: surrender the account to _Taiwan) and let the repatriation process be carried out with Sinoese overwatch. There are two ways of doing this, the easy way or the hard way. Adolphus must decide and decide fast. Troops in our zone of occupation now number some four million (currently the largest military presence of any nation in Japann).

To our allies, we must press on to kill off all remnants of Bonstock in Japann!

===============================================

OOC: I still don't have enough information about Lee Tung Hui's involvement in Japann's so-called new governemnt but there is a feeling that General Liu may return to Japann and try to assassinate that ailing old separatist prune.

OOC: Xiaguo said that he won't back back until Tuesday.

A) My nuclear strike completely annihilated Red Tide, yours occured too late. While I am not proud of killing over a billion people the glory and guilt of that belongs to me.

...

C) Adolphus will be tried for War Crimes, whether you turn him over or not....

You should be proud that you have killed a billion mongrels. A billion less mongrels in the world to bother us.

If Aldophus is convicted of war crime please let General Liu execute this scumbag.

First Draft of Agrigentian Plan for Peace in Japann

Section D: Demilitarization
1) The Construction of a defendable, fortified and permanent Demilitarized Zone between Maropian Coast and _Taiwan.
2) The manning of the DMZ by Allied Troops.

ooc: This is a very, very, very, very rough draft. Open to suggestions...I am just outlining the Goals of my Country.

"There will not be a DMZ as there will not a be a Maropian Coast again!"

- GeneraL Liu (in a recent adress to the Armed Republic of Sino Foreign Ministry).

Japann
Spyr is proceeding with reconstruction in its self-assigned zone, encompassing Niigata, Gunma, Saitama, Yamanashi, Kanagawa, Shizuoka, and Nagano prefectures, as well as the Hibiya, Akasaka, and Marunouchi districts of Tokyo. Aid is distributed as needed, while Spyran clerks and officials confer with Japannese authorities and locals. Salaries are distributed to the civil service, medical workers, police, and others, so that they might return to normal working operations.

Spyran and Japannese technicians cooperate to re-activate NHK, Japann's public broadcaster, and distribute more salaries to bring it back into full operaion. Though it is against Spyran policy to employ deceptive propaganda, certain biases slightly colour the NHK news broadcasts which begin to come out, with imperialism (both Japannese and Bonstockian) being portrayed in a highly negative light, as are NBC weapons.

Diplomatic Communique to Sino, and all other parties

General, while your eagerness to defend _Taiwan from potential dangers is admirable, we must request that you consider the realities of the situation in Maropia Coast. The native population of that region is similar to that of the rest of Taiwan, being partially Chinese and partially native Taiwanese, with Bonstockian immigrants thrown in. Yet, they are all Bonstockian citizens, not by force but by choice. Imagine the consequences of Maropian Coast ceasing to exist... if its population were forcibly integrated into tha of _Taiwan, we would likely see _Taiwan undergo political turmoil culminating in an emergence as a willing territory of Bonstock within the decade. Since we are certain this is not what you are proposing, we must ask if your intent is to kill every Maropian Coast inhabitant? Such is a solution which we are sure is neither possible, nor acceptable to any of the nations involved. Ths, we ask that you refrain from rhetoric that can merely lead to the loss of more lives, at least until we have attempted to resolve the situation through diplomacy.

OOC: As I now own Japann (the account) I'll be holding elections soon. After the rebuilding and a definitive peace of course.

OOC2: I'll be RPing Akibura's movements soon. The imperialist honchos all "disappeared" during the Tokyo attack.

OOC3: I really don't want another account, I have a hard time looking ater my ten as is.

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

The offensive into Maropian territory has halted, although troops are still wary and ready to pounce back into action in the blink of an eye.

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

"We do not agree to the terms of an unmanned DMZ. Enough said."

"We propose the addition of a third term: the realigniment of Bonstockian military doctrine to one more defensive. This will involve

*The scrapping of all long-range bombers
*The scrapping of all aircraft carriers
*The scrapping of all cruise missiles in Bonstockian arsenals
*A 50% reduction in the size of the Bonstockian mid-air refueler fleet.
*A cap on Bonstockian military spending to 1% of GDP.

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

There are rumours of personnel defection to Sino following the General's announcement.

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

Bonstock refuses the Taiwanese proposal. We will never scrap our military because of the actions of a foreign enemy.

Communique to allied powers, from the President of Spyr

Having observed the climate which exists currently amongst other political leaders, and the general populace of nations including my own, it seems as though Asia has not finished with the Bonstockian imperialists. Thus, knowing that the will and desire for a peaceful settlement may be insufficient, or that the sides may find it impossible to agree on the terms of such a peace, I must prepare myself with an alternative plan.

On the one hand, as I have stated before, the occupation of Maropian Coast would likely go against the will of much of its citizenry, and since such an occupation seems an inevitable goal in a continued conflict, I do not feel I can send my troops to participate directly.

However, I do not wish to simply abandon my newfound allies from this conflict, as such alliances have an infinitely great value to me. Good relations between United China, the Asian Alliance, and the Lyong Penninsula [OOC: Spyr's region], due to our geographic proximity and shared cultual-ethnic connections, is not only sensible but highly beneficial, with opportunities for trade, mutual defence, and many other things. So, though we do not wish to send troops into the current operational theatre, we feel that we must continue to make a contribution.

Thus, I suggest this to you: War consumes both a nation's manpower and its resources. When embroiled in conflict, it is difficult to concentrate on other matters. Thus, Spyr offers to assist in allowing resources to be concentrated by our allies as needed for their war effort. To do this, Spyr shall take up primary responsibility for the reconsruction of Japann, and, with the permission of Japann, we shall also provide a first line of defence for Japann while it reassembles a defensive military force. Should Bonstock, or any other power, seek to take advantage of the fact that Japann is temporarily weak, and the armies of her liberators have departed for the Maropian front, Spyran troops shall stop them.

It is my utmost hope that this conflict can be settled peacefully, and so my proposal may never achieve relevance. But, if war is to continue, Spyr hopes that our ideological stance does not sour relations with the valued allies we have gained, and that we can continue to play an important role in ensuring the prosperous future of an Asian Asia.

-Stephen Strain
President-for-Eternity, People's Republic of Spyr.

-Hudecia-

Crowds throng the small port city as the first Hudecian troops return home. Thousands of well wishers as well as family and friends mill around. Hudecian police stand by to keep order but generally stay clear.

Also, over a hundred MiG-29s returned to their bases in Hudecia itself as Hudecia continues the slow process of evacuation from Japan.

"The Republic of Taiwan will not support any moves by Sino to invade the Maropian Coast, as it is more than likely that it would be used by the ultra-nationalistic Sinoese as a staging point for an invasion into Taiwan to reunify China by force."

General Liu's Personal Armory (undisclosed location): 1143 Hours

In a vast warehouse with large lights dangling off the roof, the General pries open (with a crowbar) a crate of old pistols, old pistols that he had seldom used, seldom as they were either confiscated or captured from enemy troops. He rummages through the dusty old box with his busy hands, like a boy in a candy store. Only that this is no candy store and there will be some very serious business. Old Type 54s (Tokarev TT1933s) mixed curiously with M1911 .45s. Some pistols had their clips attached, some don't. Despite their age, none were rusty.

Alas, he gets what he has come for. Some Taiwanese T75s (Beretta M92FS) 9mms. He picks up two and tucked them into his trousers, professional hands working rather unprofessionally. He takes the third, and checks it. As usual, safety off hammer back. He contnues to rummage quickly finds a T51 (M1911A1) .45. He quickly added his newly acquired items to the pushcart. Already in there is a couple of M16A1s, two T65K3s assault rifles (standard ROCA issue), a pair of T77 SMGs, and a H&K PSG-1 sniper rifle partnered by its SIG SSG2000 counterpart. All of them still have their Taiwanese serial numbers, despite being under the General’s ownership.

Seeing that he’s just about done, the General pushes the cart on, to the exit and out into the awaiting helicopter.

“Haven’t seen you with so much American equipment in a helluva long time, sir.” The secretary awaited, standing steely at attention as the General loads up the goods.

“At ease, soldier.” The General replied. “They’re Taiwanese. Some of these were made by hands that belonged to our race but were barred to admit their true nationality.”

President Chen Shui Bian

"Chen is a bastard who has done nothing but let the island of Taiwan rot away at the hands of the Bonstockian aggressors."

- General Liu (in a recent rally at Junjing Multisport Stadium)

The Bonstocknians give one last condition: before a peace treaty is signed, all Taiwanese and Asian Resistance troops must withdraw from Maropian Coast.

The aggressor playing the victim, how pathetic.

OOC: Red Tide is dead. Got hit by 20,000+ ICBMs.

Treaty of Japann
1.Bonstock takes troops out of Japann. In return, we will take troops out of Maropian coast.

Already done. My troops left.

2.Bonstock must help in rebuilding Tokyo and Taipei(Which Bonstock has already begun)

Will do.

3.Bonstock must give out the persons that have been under investigation for war crimes.

We arrested some Red Tide men, we'll turn them over. Bonstock issues an apology for its actions in Taipei and will give 25 billion dollars to _Taiwan to rebuild the city. Since no one officially made the dicision to bomb Taipei, and officers who claim to be following orders were given very mixed orders from High Command, we feel it is immposible to accuratly judge who did what on that terrible night.

4.Must recognise Japann as a major power.

All right.

5.The Maropian Coast may not serve as a Major millitary base for Bonstock. Keep the the number of millitary personell to 30,000

During peacetime, yes. This will not include indiginous Maropian Defense Forces, who serve under Bonstock but are made up of Maropian Citizens.

6.No Nucleur weapons may be stored in Maropian Coast.

Fine.

7.Bonstock will pay half of its debts and the other half after Japann has finish rebuilding.

Rebuilding debts? All right.

8.Bonstock will hand over Red Tide to be judged in Asian Alliance court also.

Red Tide= "Sheet of glass." And Agrigento, my forces killed in the first strike about 700 million. You killed off the rest, about 600 million. We share the glory and the guilt just about equally.

9.Bonstock will cease the making of Nucleur weapons for 2 RL weeks. Since Bonstock does not activlely produce nukes in the first place, we will agree.

10.In return the Asian Alliance will take Bonstock off as a Major Threat.

All right.

11.Bonstock will cut alliances with Red Tide.

See above.

Bonstock is prepared to sign the treaty.

Hudecia agrees to the terms that Xiaguo has laid out and commends them for their peace making skills.

We also commend Bonstock.

Communique to Bonstock, copies to other powers

The PRS government inquires as to the nature of Maroian Coast's indigenous Defence Forces: Numbers, equipment, training, wether they are full- or part-time soldiers (and, if not full-time, are they employed in other careers as well, with limited service time?), what is the budget used to fund these forces? Such information is vital if the Allied powers are to consider excluding them from treaty limitations on military presence in Maropian Coast.

Also, you seem to be of the position that no Bonstockians will be tried for war crimes. However, this is certainly not a judgement which can be made at present... it is one which must be made by a court, evaluating all the facts. Due not only to events in Taipei, but to imperialist policies and wartime actions, Bonstockian government and military officers, like Akibura and his imperialist conspirators, or the surviving officers of Red Tide, must undergo the scrutiny of justice.

If you do not wish to hand over your citizens as witnesses or to stand trial, then I must caution you that, while Spyr may be willing to concede such a point in exchange for peace, some of our other allies are not as willing to allow such a thing. Thus, we suggest that you put forth another concession to satisfy their need for justice... perhaps increased reparation payments or a reduction of Bonstock's long-range missile arsenals.

However, provided that the Maropian Defence Forces do not have massively substantive numbers, or non-defensive equipment such as bomber aircraft, we declare our support for the current peace proposal.

Private communication to allied powers

The PRS is mildly disturbed by the refusal of the Armed Republic of Sino to acknowledge the current ceasefire, and by its assertion that it will continue hostilities against Bonstock/Maropian Coast. Coupled with its decidedly militant statements against our mutual ally of _Taiwan, and its past record in international politics, we worry that Sino jeopardizes the current attempts to reach a peaceful settlement. If Sino threatens Maropian Coast, Bonstock will likely attempt to circumvent treaty clauses which demand demilitarization, and under current conditions Sinoese presence there might be more of a threat to _Taiwan than Bonstock is currently. Thus, we request that Sino refrain from taking action, and that our other allies encourage that nation to resist its belligerent tendencies, so that all our nations may experience a new era of peace, prosperity, and cooperation in Asia.

The Hudecian Naval Task Force arrived near the coast of Taiwan today under the command of Commander Smetka (he got a promotion). Aboard were 3 divisions, ready to be deployed where they are needed. They join up with the few vessels in the region and help evacuate the remaining Hudecian troops and equipment from the Maropian coast.

Bonstocknian ships shadow the Hudecians, aiming to get them away from the shores. Then they start shadowing the _taiwanese fleet, to get them away from the shores.

If Sino threatens Maropian Coast, it will result in war.

The Maropian Self Defense forces consist of 30 motorized infantry divisions, a self defense navy of Visby class corvettes, and an air defense force of JAS 39 Gripens. Visbys should soon be replaced by LCS, and Gripens will soon be replaced with F-22s and F-38s. Including various support units, it consists of approximatly 3 million troops. Many are part time soldiers with jobs in the factories and offices, but many combat positions are manned by full time highly trained soldiers.

However, its not used much, as it may be considered godmodding to use puppets. I'd only use it if Maropian Coast was invaded and no Bonstocknian forces could respond quick enough.

As we said, there's no one to specifically blame for the Smerching of Taipei. High Command called for the taking of the city by force by the 9th Airborne Division. It was hoped that it could be accomplished during the New Year Ceasefire, when most of their forces would hopefully be away. When they proved this to be false, they called for Smerch fire. They got more then tehy bargained for. And Taipei suffered.

OOC: [So, you're saying that when you BETRAYED a ceasefire agreement and then met more forces than expected in WAR TIME(new year's is a celebration, this does not mean military forces would stand down), you decided the best course of action would be to BOMB civilian centers. And you say NO ONE is to blame for the "Smerching of Taipei"? I think you should review your logic there...]

OOC: North Yaman, that is exactly what Bonstock did.

I have a rant coming, and after it, I will try to clear up my words and explain what I mean:

First, we want you to hand over officers from ur high command that ordered the 'Smerching,' as well as those f**kers from your High Command who betrayed the 'ceasefire' that you signed.

To AR
What is worth debating amongst the AR members is that Bonstock stabbed us in the back once. Hence, we say, 'why should we believe you? You're only stalling, as I've said for the fiftieth time, and if you dont actually do something war could break out again, and fifteen thousand pounders could fall..'

to Bonstock
Oh wait, thats right, you dont know how powerful 15000 pounders are, bceause if you did, you would have taken a lot more damage than you did. And Smerches dont actually have 90km range like you said... props to AG for figuring that out.

And you ignored WCS cause he said he would 'teach you a lesson in humility' (and that f**ker also called me a 'spineless bitch,' but hey, he does that all the time, and we all kno who DOESNT get ignored, and you really do need a lesson in humility) but the point is that if you have F38s, and I dont have anything that canreally stand up against them, I'm going to start importing Zulu Vektors or Ravenhawks from WCS, and if you ignore them, I'll juss moon you. My craft only go Mach 4 in a short burst, and its not THAT fast... you can always try to catch it after it comes back from a bombing run.

I'm not saying you CANT ignore him, but i'm prob gonna ask him for some Ravenhawk fighters to face against ur F38s, so I hope you wont ignore those.

In the past and some of which continues into the present, you 1) shat on a civilian area and killed a LOT of people, 2) committed war crimes, 3) tried to infiltrate troops into my areas to capture my disabled Premier (a low move and stupid also, since you need someone to negotiate with and doing that would only set one country against you and never have them trust you again; and how far do you think you will get before someone realizes that the Premier is missing? as they say, its KISS; KEEP IT SIMPLE, STUPID), 4) you betrayed the entire Azn Alliance simply because they were being Azn and celebrating the Lunar New Year, 5) you tried to wreck Taiwan and make it part of Maropian Coast, 6)you were bargaining as if you didnt lost the war

On the plus, you did 1) begin rebuilding Taiwan and Tokyo, 2) did stop being annoying and agree to most of the terms, 3) agree to not militarize Maropian Coast, 4) agree to most of the terms, 4) stop bargaining a bit.

I want to add a provision: the destruction and abandonment of all T1s.

To AR
SO the real only thing is to get him to turn over the war crimes guys eh?

To Bonstock
While I understand that it's never easy being defeated, can you please, just hand over ur criminals? Or trust me, we will find some way to assassinate them, or just keep fighting or maybe not take you off the 'bomb, shit on, and assassinate officers from' list.

OOC: I really was hoping that the war would be over so I can get on with some character RP. War RP really isn't my thing.

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

President Chen suggests an amendment: The removal of all non-defensive military forces from the Maropian Coast.

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

ooc: I still want a DMZ :]

OOC: At the very least, as a symbolic measure, should Smerchs be banned from Maropian Coast (defensive or otherwise)?

First, we want you to hand over officers from ur high command that ordered the 'Smerching,' as well as those f**kers from your High Command who betrayed the 'ceasefire' that you signed.

That would humiliate us. No.

In the past and some of which continues into the present, you 1) shat on a civilian area and killed a LOT of people,

Yeah, so? You did it too.

2) committed war crimes,

one confused incident. One confused incident.

3) tried to infiltrate troops into my areas to capture my disabled Premier (a low move and stupid also, since you need someone to negotiate with and doing that would only set one country against you and never have them trust you again; and how far do you think you will get before someone realizes that the Premier is missing? as they say, its KISS; KEEP IT SIMPLE, STUPID),

They havn't made their move yet, and I probably wasn't going to. I just wanted to have them there.

4) you betrayed the entire Azn Alliance simply because they were being Azn and celebrating the Lunar New Year,

The Viet Cong did it.

5) you tried to wreck Taiwan and make it part of Maropian Coast,

He was an ally who betrayed me.

6)you were bargaining as if you didnt lost the war

No one really lost, except Red Tide *stares at the big crater*. I'm just offering peace because I see no point in continueing to fight for Japann. You already have offered me the right to rebuild Taipei and Tokyo, which I wanted from the outset. With that, there's no need to continue.

I want to add a provision: the destruction and abandonment of all T1s.

All right.

To Bonstock
While I understand that it's never easy being defeated, can you please, just hand over ur criminals? Or trust me, we will find some way to assassinate them, or just keep fighting or maybe not take you off the 'bomb, shit on, and assassinate officers from' list.

If you want to, I will hate you forever, and probably gather up a coalition to whip you guys.

But as stated, I didn't lose. I'm offering peace. The whole point is peace. All of my offensives were aimed at making peace.

ic: The Bonstocknian government introduces a new provision:

If Bonstocknians are brought to trial for war crimes, then East Islandians will be brought to trial for war crimes.

To Bonstock

The Azn Alliance did not offer you the right to rebuild Taipei and Tokyo. Tokyo will be rebuilt by an international effort and Taipei will receive money from you (no Bonstockian companies allowed). Also, your part in rebuilding Tokyo is not very likely as long as our (in general) nations remain at odds.

As for the humiliation part, tough. You did lose the war, we chased you out of Japan whether you like it or not. Japan is in our control.

We could chase you out of the MC as well but we decided it would be too much trouble.

And about that Viet Cong attack... does that mean we can justify our actions because another nation did it? Ok, then, so if we were to nuke you we could justify it saying that "the US did it to Japan"... NO WE COULDN'T, BECAUSE THAT'S JUST SILLY!

Oh and how many "confused incidents" does it take before its a war crime? How many people should die before it is wrong? A hundred? A thousand? A million?

Hmm... I'll have my companies in it somehow...

So I lost in Japann. I lost a battle, not a war.

We could chase you out of the MC as well but we decided it would be too much trouble.

*A bunch of Maropians with Kalishnikovs and RPGs walk up*

Didn't I defeat most of your landings? And I did stall the _Taiwanese advance.

And about that Viet Cong attack... does that mean we can justify our actions because another nation did it? Ok, then, so if we were to nuke you we could justify it saying that "the US did it to Japan"... NO WE COULDN'T, BECAUSE THAT'S JUST SILLY!

Hey, we were an underdog in need of a time to catch you offguard. Stop being sore over an attack.

Oh and how many "confused incidents" does it take before its a war crime? How many people should die before it is wrong? A hundred? A thousand? A million?

I'm just saying that you could never find someone guilty. High Command wasn't guilty. They just told the 9th Airborne to take Taipei during the night. 9th Airborne was intent on following that order, so they called in for artillery when there was too much resistance. Smerch rockets responded, and carpet-rocketted Taipei. The whole incident was over in 10 minutes. By that time, High Command ordered a halt, and a withdrawl. So who do you blame? High Command? They didn't say "carpet rocket Taipei!" What about the 15,000 men of the 9th Airborne Division? They can't be blamed for calling in artillery! And what about the Smerch crews? They were only responding to the call for artillery! Everyone was a "soldier following orders" or not able to do anything about it.

And moreover, I didn't loose. Not yet, at least. If you want this war to continue, prepare to die.

I am not sore about the attack personally, what I do object to is your constant refering to the Viet Cong assault. Keep RL history separate from NS - that's what I'm saying.

Also, I did not appreciate it since many people probably were trying to celebrate (RL) an actual event and might be too busy to come online. Just like when we asked for some time off to do exams, our lives come before NS.

Our forces withdrew from the beacheads after facing heavy resistance. So what? Now we have several nations supporting us, instead of just Taiwan and I.

Umm.. if you hadn't noticed Japan was the major battlefield for this war. It wasn't just a battle, it was a war in itself.

Next, yes we can hold the officers of the Smerches launchers responsible. Also, lets look back at your post recording the event shall we? Your Smerches levelled blocks of the city in a systematic and deliberate manner, a process that takes hours, not minutes, to inflict the kind of damage you claimed you had.

We can hold every person in that division responsible if we want to, because following orders only works until the order is a war crime, then the justification doesn't work. And in retaliation we could level every city in MC, just as you did Taipei.

Bonstock, we're not Vietcong, and we dont back out on our word, which is the issue here which you keep avoiding. Despite what you seem to think, not all Azns are alike, and not all of us had something to do with Vietnam, especially since America went there by its own choice in the first place.

If you want to debate Vietnam, go ahead and do so on a separate thread. Until then, keep your mouth shut about that war and answer the f**king question here.

HOW CAN WE TRUST YOU?

And you said, 'if you want war to continue, prepare to die.'

A dumb June nation against two NOT dumb May nations and a bunch of other NOT DUMB nations doesnt bode well for you, so just stfu about the future war thing. As much as i would like to fight you, we have to finish this shit first, so stick to the issue at hand. It's more the issue of CAN WE TRUST YOU than 'underdog thing.' This was not hte first time this happened, and I have a feelng it wont be the last.

And I wont turn over my troops for warcrimes since we didnt kill civilians on purpose. And the ones who did bomb your cities (ONCE, unilke you who juss kept smerching eveyrthing) were killed; H9 crews have a high casualty rate.

I am sick of your hollow threats...Go get this Coalition and try to kick our asses, until then, accept the damn consequences....

You talk so big and bad, but your just that, ALL TALK.

The Armed Forces of Agrigento are ready to continue this war, and to bring it to another level, if you give us a reason to. Japann is ours, do you want to lose Maropian Coast too? Do you want your homeland bombed??

You need to realize that you stand to benefit from peace...

As far as I am concerned, your nation is not deserving of any trust what-so-ever... I think a complete and thorough regime change is in order, but I will not press into such a matter without further provocation, or rather justification. Your nation remains a threat, a threat that we can handle, but a threat nonetheless.

Now, here is a list of my demands, and although I am open to compromise, these are my goals, and until I am satisfied there will be no lasting peace for your nation. No rest for the wicked.

A) Adolphus is taken out of power
B) DMZ between Maropian Coast and _Taiwan, manned and controlled by Allied troops.
C) Official apology and reparations to Japann and Taiwan
D) Your exclusion from the reconstruction of Japann.

Diplomatic Communique to Sino, and all other parties

General, while your eagerness to defend _Taiwan from potential dangers is admirable, we must request that you consider the realities of the situation in Maropia Coast. The native population of that region is similar to that of the rest of Taiwan, being partially Chinese and partially native Taiwanese, with Bonstockian immigrants thrown in. Yet, they are all Bonstockian citizens, not by force but by choice. Imagine the consequences of Maropian Coast ceasing to exist... if its population were forcibly integrated into tha of _Taiwan, we would likely see _Taiwan undergo political turmoil culminating in an emergence as a willing territory of Bonstock within the decade. Since we are certain this is not what you are proposing, we must ask if your intent is to kill every Maropian Coast inhabitant? Such is a solution which we are sure is neither possible, nor acceptable to any of the nations involved. Ths, we ask that you refrain from rhetoric that can merely lead to the loss of more lives, at least until we have attempted to resolve the situation through diplomacy.

Maropian Coast is a part of China, no Chinese person recognize its legitimacy. This is a rogue state made from the land captured off China by a pathetic nation from afar. China for Chinese! We will reclaim the lost territories.

As for the problems with the demographics of the area, we strongly advise those who consider themselves to be Bonstockians to deport themselves before we capture Maropian Coast and pack them off into concentration/labor camps. Chinese living under foreign occupation should be free to return to their Motherland. We strongly suggest that Bonstock must remove all of her immigrants and their descendants from the area, before we begin purging our soil off unwanted weeds.

A) Adolphus is taken out of power
B) DMZ between Maropian Coast and _Taiwan, manned and controlled by Allied troops.
C) Official apology and reparations to Japann and Taiwan
D) Your exclusion from the reconstruction of Japann.

There should never be a DMZ. If there will be one, it should only be manned by Sinoese and Taiwanese troops. Bonstock should also pay reparations to Sino, Xiaguo and other parties of the AA.

-Hudecian Broadcaster-

"Hudecian soldiers were again put on high alert as tensions between the Asian Alliance and Bonstock grow. Although the government is not ruling out a negotiated settlement it seems to be preparing itself for war."

"A second Hudecian carrier fleet is being prepared for the combat. The Kitty Hawk - class carrier and its fleet are being loaded up with supplies and by order of the government another 5 divisions are being mobilized. General mobilization orders had been rescinded only a day ago as a settlement appeared within grasp."

-Tokyo-

Commander Kimura prepared to meet the new leaders of the LDP party. The LDP party was planning on holding a convention to elect a party leader within the week to prepare for the upcoming general election. A census by Hudecian diplomats was scheduled to begin soon, and after that it was hoped an election would be called.

Spyran officers have begun gatheringup and debriefing surviving members of the Japannese military. While this is a difficult task, with the army having been devastated and scatered, soldiers begin to be rounded up. The general sentiment they seem to hold is a Japannese nationalism, rather than one of imperialism, and it is hoped that through education and interaction with fellow Asians, Japann will come to understand that the route to security, prosperity, and national strength lies in cooperation, not imperialism.

As they come out of debriefing, some soldiers are given their salaries and sent to supplement Japannese police who are insuring an orderly reconstruction.

Kanzaki Heavy Industries, a Spyran corporation, has begun construction of several scrap metal processors in Japann. It is hoped that these factories, employing Japannese workers and paying taxes to the Japannese government, will be able to turn the war refuse left in Japann into funds for economic recovery.

The Hudecia government has floated the idea of having the Japanese government build military transports for sale to nations as a source of income for the nation.

Compromise of Maropian-_Taiwan
There shall be no DMZ.
Maropian coast may NOT have more than 30,000 millitary personell.
Bonstock must Pay for all damges done to Taiwan at the time of the Chinese New Year Cease-Fire.
Bonstock may not have Nucleur, weapons in Maropian Coast.
Taiwan may not have naval;millitary or private ships within 20miles of Maropian Coastline.
Maropian coast will have a border with Taiwan having no Millitary Personell controlling it, just regular Border Patrols.
Maropian Coast and Taiwan WILL NOT conduct missile programs 60miles from the border.

The Armed Republic of Sino Military Junta strongly recommends that the same forces that have devastated Japann (other than those of Red Tide and Bonstock) must be permanently stationed in Japann, our new protectorate. Japann may have a new government, but it must be overwatched by us.

We cannot trust the same sneaky bastards that had almost annihilated the Chinese race in WWII as they have recently tried to repeat their age old dream. Their anti-Chinese racism lies in their genetics; they hate the Chinese race as much as Nazis are programmed to hate Jews!

Chinese of the world, come rally under the banner of Sino!

OOC: Other than _Taiwan, so none of you had any suspicions what so ever concerning General Liu's sudden 'interest' in Taiwanese small arms?

===============================================

We strongly suggest that _Taiwan should stand up for as Chinese and reclaim the Maropian Coast! Bonstockians have parasitically absorbed Taiwan's resources for decades. Resources that belong only to the Chinese race. Their doing had been of enslaving the Chinese population there.

it is of high recommendation that _Taiwan's forces should thrust into this area, liberate the Chinese there, and either enslave or kill off all the aliens there!!!

We recommend bloodshed to be the form of the concentration camps, where Bonstockians, whether civilian or prisoners of war, shall either work to their deaths or be systematically eliminated.

We also suggest of a possible joint venture, where Sinoese technology and security, combined with the shipments of Bonstockian slaves from the Maropian Coast, exploit the remaining natural resources still abundant in the fallen Red Tide. From the hands of slaves, we claim the golds and gems as our guards (waring NBC suits), whip the backs of slaves to a raw red, red as the receded tide.

Hudecia would like to strongly urge Sino not to permanently base troops in Japan as such would only antagonize the native population into more attacks on Chinese citizens.

Instead, we propose that troops will oversee the transfer of power to the Japanese, and then Japan would join the Asian Alliance.

As for the plundering of Red Tide, the radiation levels are too high for any living thing, even in anti-radiation suits to survive in. Wait a century or two until he stops glowing.

If no permanent stationing of troops in Japann shall be agreed upon, then we must inspect Japann's arsenals annually until the sun refuses to shine. We must prevent another Japannese military build up!

Japann should be allowed to join the AA, but its government's military and foreign affairs must be monitored closely by Sino and allies.

If the plundering of Red Tide is impossible then we shall have to find some other work for our future residents in the upcoming concentration camps. Preferably, arms manufacturing.

He was an ally who betrayed me

Actually I was going to declare war on Red Tide for sponsoring terrorism. There was a promise to remain neutral in the Japannese conflict.
[/ooc]

The Republic of Taiwan has enacted enormous tariffs against Bonstockian companies.

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

Support for General Zhang's hardline party with a stance similar to Sino's on the Maropian coast has risen 8% in the last week.

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

President Chen reiterates his request for the removal of offensive weaponary from Bonstockian militaries.

[OOC: uhh...the point of Nazi and WW2 Japanese thought(I stress World War Two, which didn't happen in NS history, as RL history and NS history don't coincide) was that Genetics dictated the superiority of certain races, namely Aryan and Japanese. This is the thinking that led to Jewish concentration camps and Japanese(not Japannese!) atrocities in WW2, like the Rape of Nanking. However, to continue in this thinking and believe that anti-Chinese sentiment is inherent to Japannese is to continue in the infamous line of Hitler.

The killing of Bonstockian Civilians and POW's? Why? A better question would be, if conquored by the now humbled country of Bonstock(no matter what he says) wouldn't you wish for mercy?]

We are still concerned that Bonstock will launch a suprise attack from Maropian Coast. We continue to endorse the DMZ idea, but will concede if we must.

The Chinese had been far too merciful to their enemies in the past. Sino represents the model of China in the future. For far too many times we have swept the dirt under the carpet and forget about revenge. Bonstockians are modern Mongols. We've been merciful to the Mongols considering that our conquest of their land ensure that they still keep their own culture and all. China had been too generous (OOC: I'm not racist to Mongolians). Bonstockians have granted no mercy to the Chinese under their occupation, they rape our women and tried to bastardize and dilute our blood.

Considering that Chinese do not commit bestiality, we should mow down their women into graves along with the men and children.

For future reference, Spyran Theatre Command: Japann is operating under the assumption that its proposal for reconstructive zoning has been accepted, and as such, is encouraging reconstruction in its assigned sectors. Much of the destroyed Japannese infrastructure of electronics is being rebuilt using Spyran products, including the laying fibreoptic and telecommunications cables, and restoring the cellular communication network which is popular amongst the Japannese. Spyran-funded NHK continues to run news and cultural programs, including documentaries showing the Japannese the contributions made to their liberation by their Asian neighbours, especially Xiaguo and South Dalania. While such programming is careful not to degenerate into propaganda, nor to attack Japannese self-conceptions of uniqueness, they hopefully help in painting a picture of Japann's Asian neighbours as close comrades and friends. Praise of Sino is notably absent (as it seems pretty much impossible to get footage of Sino stating anything positive about Japann)

Military movement in the Spyran zone in Japann, and in Tokyo, is restricted by Spyran military authorities, with movements requiring authorization both from the Spyrans and local Japannese prefectural authorities before they are allowed to proceed. This is justified by the Spyran officers as a precaution against any one power attempting to consolidate control over Japann as Bonstock and Red Tide did before.

Spyran authorities are also beginning to gather census data, to assist Hudecia in its steps towards holding elections. Strainist (Free Market Fasco-Socialist, the Spyran political ideology) literature is made available to any interested Japannese, in the hope that after the turmoil some people may seek a new political path when elections are held.
[Spyrans, as many who hold certain ideologies, believe theirs to be the best, and thus hope the Japannese will adopt it with their own Strainist Party. However, the Spyrans neither fund any Japannese political activities, nor take any active involvement... such would be too much of a conflict with their anti-imperialist mission].

Schools are re-opened with renewed funding, as repairs are completed, and hospitals are close to full operation under a temporary full-service-medicare system.

Sino, you MUST understand, we sometimes believe in not coming forth as to killing Japanese simply for they are Japanese, Bonstockian simply because they're bonstockian. We must not BE like them. Don't you understand? We are not as millitarialistic and revengeful like you.
I am sorry, but Xiaguo will not participate into further battles or anything against the Geneva Accords. We also will not repeat trajic RL history of extreme nationalism which led to decrimination and atrocities of others.
I hope I am noit the only one in believing this.
OOC: I might be too young, age 13 to be a very good leader, but I want to be a leader, leader of which is full of morals and right thoughts.


As of Demands by both sides.

-Hudecia Broadcaster- Live speech by Defence Minister Matsuda-

In accordance with the growing tensions near Taiwan, the Hudecian government is deploying a second carrier fleet to the region with orders to assist our allies if necessary.

It will be transporting 3 fresh divisions to the region as well as another 50 intercepters. We stress however, that such actions should not be construed as a military build-up however. We remain commited to the peace process.

The PRS has bee observing recent Bonstockian naval planning and construction (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=121070) and has found disturbing evidence that Bonstock has no intent to end its attempts to dominate Asia.

The super-battleship they are constucting is supposedly for the purpose of 'dominating the seas'... while there are many seas and oceans, geography and history seem to indicate that one of the bodies of water over which domination is sought will be the Pacific.

The vessel is supposedly designed to intimidate entire fleets, serving as a tool for gunboat diplomacy, and its armament is substantial. While several options exist for dealing with such a vessel, the fact that the Bonstockian Navy intends to construct ten of them indicates a policy of continued military expansion, and thus the possibility of continued imperialism in Asia.

Spyr proposes that, perhaps, the peace treaty we are attempting to arrive at could establish naval tonnage ratios, to insure that no one nation shall hold the power to overwhelm the other in an imperialist war of expansion.

-Hudecian warfleet- HN Hclav-

"Give orders for the fleet to move out." Smetka said after consulting his watch.

"In the pre-planned course headings?" the navigator asked. Smetka nodded and the ships began moving towards the northern tip of Taiwan in a slow but deliberate manner.

The Republic of Taiwan has enacted enormous tariffs against Bonstockian companies.

--Riksdag--

"Gentlemen of the Riksdag," said Speaker Wilson, "What are we to do about the new tariffs?"

The Riksdag got enveloped in a huge argument. Thousands of Bonstocknian companies stood on the verge of bankruptcy.

---Bank of Bonstock---

We would like to invest 1 trillion USD in _Taiwan's IT sector, but we would like that if we do so, you will stop high tariffs.

A) Adolphus is taken out of power

A democratically elected official? Never!

B) DMZ between Maropian Coast and _Taiwan, manned and controlled by Allied troops.

I think I stand with others. There shall be no DMZ. I want to decrease tensions.

C) Official apology and reparations to Japann and Taiwan

I DID THAT!
D) Your exclusion from the reconstruction of Japann.

Hey! I was your ally! You betrayed me!

[well, actually, what happened was you all got suspicious when I started attacking Tokyo. I was going to help in the start of the war, but I had a civil war in between. When I came back in, I was met with distrust. And then Red Tide joined up with me. And gassed the confrence you were having, where I was hoping to have a peaceful agreement, or a fun diplomatic campaign.]

ic:

Bonstock officially apologizes for its actions in Taipei. Also, Bonstock apologized for aligning itself with Red Tide, and offers comphensation for all Japanese hurt by the actions of the Bonstocknian ally.

Adolphus got on live television today, and gave a speech.

"Fellow Bonstocknians and Maropians, we have had a violent and long war with the Asian Resistance. Though we seek to end the fighting, and have offered concessions, we are not getting what we feel is right for peace.

"We do not seek an empire in Eastern Asia. This has been something gravely misunderstood by our allies in the Asian Resistance. Though we have colonies in Maropian Coast and the Sakishimas, they are not merely imperialist possetions. They are Bonstock. Half of the Bonstocknian population lives in Maropian Coast, some 1.2 billion souls. In Bonstock proper, 90% of the population is either part Chinese or full Chinese. Why would we seek to colonize our own people?

"We believe that Bonstock must reach out to the Asian Resistance. We must show them what Bonstock is, a peaceful, cosmopolitan nation. We must seek to repair our friendships. We must make a long, lasting peace possible in Asia.

"Our demands are simple. Maropian Coast and the Sakishimas will remain Bonstocknian states, with full representation in the Riksdag and the Federal Government. Bonstock will have the right to help in the rebuilding of Japann, but will not perminantly station troops there. We also seek free trade with the Asian Resistance members.

"Our nation is tired of being called imperialist for our past actions. We need to move forward, not back to the old ways of war. We have already said that we seek no more Asian territory. We only seek peace and friendship with our estranged allies.

"I am going to personally meet with the leaders of the Asian Resistance in a summit meeting to help show the path to peace. We must make it a lasting peace, one that does not cause nations to hate eachother even more. If we can achieve this, the whole world will improve.

"It depends now on how our estranged allies react. We have offered them our olive branch, and we will not go back on it. We wish no ill to them. I ask all Bonstocknians to welcome them back into our community of friends. We must build a future, not a history of hatred. Let all Bonstocknians join in our efforts at peace."

Compromise of Maropian-_Taiwan
There shall be no DMZ.
Maropian coast may NOT have more than 30,000 millitary personell.
Bonstock must Pay for all damges done to Taiwan at the time of the Chinese New Year Cease-Fire.
Bonstock may not have Nucleur, weapons in Maropian Coast.
Taiwan may not have naval;millitary or private ships within 20miles of Maropian Coastline.
Maropian coast will have a border with Taiwan having no Millitary Personell controlling it, just regular Border Patrols.
Maropian Coast and Taiwan WILL NOT conduct missile programs 60miles from the border.

ooc: Sounds good.

Really, I've become dissillusioned with my own ideas. I was actually planning on taking over Japann, and making it a state with representation in the Riksdag. From there, with a larger population then Bonstock, Japann would rule the Riksdag, and move the capital to Tokyo, essentially making Bonstock a colony. I was planning on my population assimilating into the Japanese.

Actually, I started out planning on doing this with China, making Bonstock an assimilated nation. However, Japannese imperialism made it a target for everyone, so I decided to join in for that.

Now that I see that I can't really do this with either China or Japan, I have no intention of "imperialism" in East Asia. I will continue to hold onto Maropian Coast and the Sakishimas, no matter the cost, but I see no point in expanding.

Besides, there's not really much I need from East Asia. What I really need is a colony in the Middle East for oil... Saudi Arabia, or Yemen? No, Iraq! Yes... they have "WMD," so Bush says... (ok, that was just some sick American humor, but we teenage Americans like to make fun about the Iraq war)

I admit, this has been a bit of a humbling experiance for me. I know I can't continue this war. There's no such thing as skillful prolonging of a war, so Sun Tzu says. And really, if I continue, I'll find myself overwhelmed. I'm not gonna give in on war crimes, but I will apologize, courtmartial some people, and pay comphensations to Taipei, who I hope will repeal their tarriffs. Those things will kill my economy.

Sino, you MUST understand, we sometimes believe in not coming forth as to killing Japanese simply for they are Japanese, Bonstockian simply because they're bonstockian. We must not BE like them. Don't you understand? We are not as millitarialistic and revengeful like you.
I am sorry, but Xiaguo will not participate into further battles or anything against the Geneva Accords. We also will not repeat trajic RL history of extreme nationalism which led to decrimination and atrocities of others.
I hope I am noit the only one in believing this.
OOC: I might be too young, age 13 to be a very good leader, but I want to be a leader, leader of which is full of morals and right thoughts.


As of Demands by both sides.
Bonstock must return the Maropian Coast to _Taiwan in a way kid of like UK returning HK to PRC.

Yeh's Compromise
Bonstock will return Maropian Coast with a schedule date agreed by everyone.
All Bonstockian POW's will be released including any Bonstockians arrested in Japann.
Class A-B criminals WILL be trialed by Asian Alliance Court.
Bonstock will sign an agreement that Bonstock will not interfere in Asian Alliance.
The Asian Alliance will sign a treaty to not involve in any Issues concerning Bonstock unless bonstock has directed a cause of War.
Bonstock will release all of the Aliied Nations's POW's.
Bonstock MUST pay for all debts;Taipei, Tokyo, and Mass Transportatio in Honshu.
Once Maropian Coast is "So called return to _Taiwan, Bonstock may still control it but may not have ANY millitary or weapons in Maropian Coast.
Bonstock will not interfere with the Asian Alliance, and the Asian Alliance will not interfere with Bonstock's.

For Determination of a

Maropian Coast may be peacefully returned to China (or _Taiwan*) provided that all Bonstockians are removed. Further more, we strongly advise _Taiwan to reclaim the Maropian Coast by force as soon as possible, as we cannot trust that weasel who speaks out off his backside.


*Notice how we're going to bat for you, Mr. Chen.
