OOC: Nobody has it in Chellis' list of RL nations taken...

IC:

At 0300 the quiet night in La Coruna was broken when two large Macabee battleships, HES Caranza and HES Caracol, opened fire with a barrage of Maverick and Tomahawk missiles, as well as their massive 18" guns.

Thirty minutes later, 10,000 men landed south of La Coruna, between that city and Santiago de Campostela; near a town called Carbalto, some 20km south of La Coruna.

North of La Coruna 10,000 infantry landed at El Ferrol, and those quickly set out to capture Puentedeume and Betanzos, linking up with the souther pincer might quickly, some six hours after landing.

At the same time, at Hueval 200,000 Infantry, and 4,000 (mixed) armor, quickly landed at either side of the city, enduring some Spanish resistance, although the natives did not have the technology to make an impression. Light casualties were pushed aside as Huelva fell quickly after the landing, the mayor rather having the mighty Macabees as allies, not enemies.

Their example also forced the sourrounding cities to surrender rather quickly, including the large capital of Andalucia, Sevilla.

OOC: I'll wait until someone says something..then I'll keep on RP'ing.. if you have a claim to this nation "because you just do" dont bullshit.. you need to RP your claim..and seeing how nobody has I'll just ignore your claim and you'll have to land to oppose me.

Skullzz forces are currently in the region, and are prepared to send aid should you require it.

From Huelva a column of men quickly rushed down towards Jerez de la Frontera, losing some 300 men to guerillas. However, 13 hours later Cadiz fell in the south, pushing the rest of the Gibraltar peninsula to surrender (except the Gibraltar "rock" which is owned by someone else).

In the north La Coruna fell quickly allowing for a column to take towards Oviedo and another towards Orense, to the south. Spain was quickly crumbling.

OOC: Damn forums...slooow...

Oviedo fell two days later to extreme pressure of 1,000 men and soon the northern column had Santander on a tight grip, while 2,000 men stretched out to take Bilbao quickly.

In the south, with the Gibraltar under control, Malaga fell and 10,000 men and 1,000 (mixed) tanks soon took Granada and Almeria, and began working towards Cartagena...

Letter to Macabee Government
From: President of the Spanish Confederation

Our old nation is disunited and we cannot fight against your mighty empire. It is time for us to rise in power under your guidance and to join your might empire. The Spanish Confederation now surrenders to the great Emperor Finegold IV.

The Dark Legions of Skullzz are proud to be the first to congratulate The Macabees on this successful annexation.

Not to be a spoilsport here, but wouldn't it have been a better idea to get someone to RP as Spain or Portugal? There's enormous potential for an RP here...

OOC: I think the idea here was a quick annexation of Spain, before anyone else said "Hey, let's go take Spain!"

I own Gibralter so what do u mean it is under control? My forces there are at DEFCON2. A small force is moving into Southern Spain to secure a small zone with which to better defend Gibralter against attack. This small force consists of 20,000 men. They have just broke throught he border and light if any resistance has been encountered.

OOC: Well, if we're throwing around ignores I guess I can toss you on my own list. Why? Because I've watched Matich's ownership of Gibraltar RP'd over a number of months, while you I see attack a nonexistant 'Spanish Confederation', post three times, and suddenly the Iberian is yours?

This is why RL nation claims are mostly stupid. I see the RP possibilities, but 'I claim this' is always followed quickly by 'NO, I claimed it already. You're ignored.'

Incredibly cheesy reason to ignore.

OOC: yea, I was thinking that too... RPing the take over of RL nations is pretty cheap...

IC: Macabee troops have been seen leaving the peninsula...

OOC: end of story.

I tend to regard most of the conflicts in RL places as being in parallel dimensions, to avoid most of the "But I alredy pwn that!1! ur ignord!" type situations...
