At 2:00 AM HMT, eighteen destroyers of the Royal Navy pulled up outside Sargoth Island and demanded surrender of Sith forces held up in the Island. The Sith Commander was told, by Commander Farsoth, that if they did not surrender within three hours, Commonwealth forces would proceed to take Sargoth Island.


OOC:// Map please Unified Sith.

EDIT; Edited out some things that were wrong grammar-wise.

We are determined to prevent genocide and encourage international peace. It is widely regonised now that more should have been done about the Nazi's before WW2.

Technocracia fully supports Hogsweat's moves and so are now debating weather or not to deploy troops and ships. However, it seems likely that we will be dispatching a Technocracian Task Force in the near future, we urge US to surrender to prevent loss of life.

If Unified Sith does not surrender, we will bomb the defences of Sargoth Island into the ground, and storm the island by force.

I am on no ones side but I might help you if you want, or need it.

Momanguise is extending her forces in the region to include seven MNE-001 Frigates complete with S to A missile capabilty. She is also sending two MNA-001 Aircraft Carriers.

I have tried to get a map up but i cant.

"Commander, give the ultimatum to the emperor."

"My lord, commonwealth forces have ivaded out territorial waters. They have demanded that we surrender Sargoth Island."

"We will do no such thing, have the men enter the tunnel i want reinfocements ready to get on that island. Have all the replacement hardware for standby. Order all balst doors sealed on the island. Next ship that enters range order the coastal guns to open fire."

"Sir an attack was made last night, but all hands were underground we only lost some automated defences."

"Are they being replaced."

"Already done"

"Have the minefields lain and prepare for battle."

"Order the government to evacuate to the underground city."

"All redy done my lord"



The commander of Sargoth island looked a little nervous. "What is the state of our defences."

"Everything is operational sir."

"Okay activate the Sonar emitters, i wont no subs slipping through our grasp."

Technocracia is now dispatching 15 destroyers, 5 frigates and an aircraft carrier to back up Hogsweat's forces and ensure that Unified Sith complies with our demands.

This r.p is now closed if youy were not here in the beginning you aint here now.

Midlonia will say who is a part of the coalition.

The sub commander recieved the information from high command, ans shouted through the sub "No surrender boys! We've been given the green light to attack" The top was taken off the cruise missle button, waiting for the missles to be fired.

OOC: you cant just replace them that quickly.


Twenty Modified B1A1's soared over the Commonwealth Navy, and as approaching Sargoth Isle, they let loose 80 Ziaria class free-fall bombs, ordnance that had a capacity of 190 KG of Explosives. They turned back home, to refuel. Hopefully that decisive strike had shown the commander the strength of the Coalition.

I have sent to Sargoroth island:
10 DD-963 Spruance-class Destroyers
5 Hell Class Supremacy Carrier with 5 B-1B Lancer Bombers and 10 Apache Longbow attack Helicopters

The operators pressed the red button as 10 cruise missles (1 per sub, I'm not god modding) came out of the sea and headed towaards Sargoth

Post damage please.

On board Submarine UNA - 001.9, captain Zykov admired the craft.

'Fine bird this......a bit like your wife Peterson......'

'Erm sir?'

'What Peterson?'

'We have orders to fire the AFD torpdoes.'

'We have? FIRE THE TORPEDOES?'

'Yes sir.'

Ahead of the ship, twenty torpedoes streamed ahead, avoiding the obstacles and inpacting upon the tunnels. Sand and rock blasted up, obscuring the view.

'Did we break it Peterson?'

'Unsure sir.'

'Well reload just in case.'

'Yes Sir.'

The captain gave the order for 5 cruise missiles to be fired at sargoth Island.

I will give a description of sargoth island if you did not read it earlier when i posted its defences.

The entire island is sheer rock. All installations are below ground. Fighters are brought up out of hangers which are at an angle to prevent missile damage from deep within the island itself.

The island is connected to the mainland by a long underseabed tunnel. which tanks, men and planes can bre brought through by rail.

The coastal defences were provided by midlonia although we have made some improvements of our own.

We have stationary torpedoe launchers underwater. Magnetic mines are swarming the place.

all the deepwater ports have been sealed and mines placed within them.


The island will be a bitch to take.

Have you put the map up on a website host?

As part of the Hogsweat Commonwealth (im one of Hogsweats M8s hes teaching me to RP) i want to be able to fight in the RP.

Right, wishing to make this a good RP without any ignoring or god-modding, we have limited it to 4 nations on our side, they are:

Midlonia
British Communists
Hogsweat
Momanguise

Pleaase nobody else get involved, you'll be ingored by US.

OOC: My missiles were trying to distroy your defences. guns, mines, etc.

Those missles will be ignored.

my bombs were targeting defences.

CAM 3 YOU ARE NOT INVITED YOU WILL BE IGNO"

"Commander we have incoming"

The explosions could be from on the surface, the lights shook and dimmed, while the reactor compensated.

"Damage"

"NO dead sir all men are underground, however one sam lift has been taken out and 2 others damaged."

"Their supposed to be able to stand against a nuclear blast, remind me to talk to the admiral when this is over."

The coastal guns took sight of the B.C subs "Enemy in range." (are you in range if your not ignore this)

"OPen fire" The coastal guns heaved as they lobbed there heavy sheels into the air. "I have named my favourite guns whinnie and poo.

"Pull out to a safe distance, they dont want our help." The Captain said
"Yes sir"

Cam III's ships pulled away to safe distance to watch from there.

(from 80 190KG bombs you would take much more than that.)

The huge 28" cannons from the destroyers lifted up into the air, and fired continuosly at Sargoth. However, there was return fire, and the Destroyer Golden Kingdom was crippled.

After carefully considering the situation, Technocracian ships will also pull back to allow the coalition to invade US.

soviet nations you are ignored. are you on the list. nope

'Sir? Sir!'

'God Dammit, Peterson, you know not to disturb me when I'm alone! I was wan.....I mean reading!'

'Of course sir. We didn't bust the tunnel.'

'We didn't? Fire again then.'

'It's not as simple that sir. Its undersea.'

'Then fire the HET's!'

'Yes.'

'Yes?'

'Yes Sir.'

'That's more like it.'

The submarines torpedoes snaked away. Half and hour later, the high explosives hit, blasting away tons of rock from the sea bed.

'It's exposed sir!'

'Right, load the ABF's. This time we've got em'......'

My 80 bombs, 190Kg, would have done alot more damage Unified. Stop 'moding, and face up to the reality of losing.

OOC: I hope US loses

Sorry US I am out of range of sea guns. I guess those damages were from my cruise missles?

Everything and everyone is under grond there is no surface insatllations
except automated deffences. You are4 going to have to attack the island via land if you want to take. Everything is brought up from under ground via platforms. they can be retraced in the event of an attack. Just stop crying this island has been designed to resist arial and naval attacks and its doing its job.

I have to go to work now, however i will be on at half nine tonight london time and 9 tommorrow london time.

"Oh Ken why did u have an affair with cindy?"
"I don't know Barbie, i was weak"

"SIR SIR!"

The admiral Grabbed the Dolls and swept them close to him, he had his back to the door

"They have begun their attacks sir"

"Good, did you see anything?"
"No sir i didn't see you playing with your dolls again"
"Good, and don't forget to knock next time!"

thats right you can balst through sheer granite, ignoring the magnetic mines and get to the tunnel. The tunnel is about 100 metres below the surface of the sea bed your going to have to do alot better than that.

Yea.. still post losses from my Bombs, your automated defenses should be knocked out, or at least a large portion.


There were five B1-B's, soaring high, but with a different intention. At the part were the bombardment had taken place, they dropped tonnes of anti-mine chaff and EMP blockers, disabling the mines in the area.


"GO GO GO" From the carrier WentForth, four thousand Royal Marines poured out, in boats not unlike used in DDay. However, these were fitted with scaling equipment. They would shoot the top with a grappling hook once the boat was disabled next to the cliffs, and then climb up. Helicopters would make sure no infantry tried to stop them.

The submariners looked at eah other nervously. Their purpose was to lay the way for an invasion of Sargoth, but it would be hard to take, as the second cruise missles were put into position, they know this could be their last attack apart from torpedos, and the island was bound to have a torpedo net. A moment later the 10 cruise missles were fired, heading for SAM sites so at least the bombers could do damage.

a) those torpedoes are demagnitised.

b) I've spent a hell a lot of money devoloping these for this particular purpose.

c) twenty high explosive torpedoes, fired in succesion, packed with plastique, are quite capable of blasting a hole through 100 metres of granite.

What is deployed here? (naval wise)

TAG

The B1B's had returned, all twenty of them. Again, they flew over Sargoth Island, llooking for targets of oppurtunity. They found nothing though, so they released their payloads on old targets, to clear a way for the Marine landing, and returned to base.

"Whats the damage"

"None sir, although there is alot of crators."

"Good its alot better for the infantry to defend, What about the gun defences are they still operational."

"They are 95% operational sir a lift shaft was knocked out on one of them, a direct hit."

"They are most likely to start an infantry assault next, have the tanks put on alert and ready the infantry. Also contact the Jordaxia navy get our suprise started."

"Sir, what about the."

"Yes ,yes tell them that on the next attack they can get their pirze."

"Orders shall be relayed."

The commander peered into his map of the island looking for the most likely invasion spot he had it, his finger smacked down onto kietha dock.

"Commander what about the etxra defences are they all in place."

A call from down the hall, "Yes sir they are" satisfied the commander.

The commander, proceeded to his cabinet pulling out a fine malt of whisky, he needed it he was just about to take a drink, when the door was opened. It was general Sidious.

bump

*important annocemant*

Due to Momanguise's economic problems, the forces currently engaged in Sargoth Island are being withdrawn. Momanguise hereby gives up her place in the four attacking nations, and this gap may be filled by another nation.

OOC//you cant just take no losses...

"GOGOGO!" The Marines rappeled up the cliffs on the opposite side of Sargoth Island from the dock at Kietha. Gunfire ripped through the marines, and many were lost, but soon around 3000 marines were taking cover at the top of the ridge, and had diisabled some turrets and were using them to cover behind.

Where is your navy in all of this?
How did you sneak so many troops up the side of the isle?

"We have an incoming marine assault sir."

"And you know what to do now let me drink my bloody brandy."

The commander proceeded to the control console where he brought up the defences foor sector 13. 8 automated guns were off line marines were taking the top of the ridge. However they had no heavy weapons or armour.

The second in command clicked on minefield brought up the selection and clicked detonate.

Hundereds of mines detonated because of the preceeding radio signal.

"This is captain hago, first defence section are to take up positions on the island and remove the attackers. Doors are opening."

1000 men and 50 tanks proceed to pass through the huge blast door entrance, thier glistening armour shining in the sun could ony signify victory.

General Sidious walked into the command centre, commander what the fuck are you doing we are under attack and you are swirling brandy, Bah you are removed from command we need a real man of stature here.

We want to take Momanguise's place in the coalition. If there's no problem with that, we'll move in our fleet.

So it begins. Extra ships are being diverted. Submarines shall assist Hogsweat's bombardment.

I can confirm that Friyusistan is repalacing me in this RP. My naval forces in the area have been evacuated.

The Friyusistani fleet arrived Sith waters.
"Men, let's blow up those bastards!!!" shouted Almirant DuPont to his crew
"Star firing the Tomahawks"

Waves of 25 missiles from a part of the fleet started hitting Sith's possitions in Sargoth Island. Also, the 1st Submarine Division (formed by 24 SSN-688I Los Angeles) started firing they torpedos to the submarine tunel coneccting the island to the mailand.

Edit: Double post

The resulting bombardment has killed all of my troops on the surface however it has also killed all of the attacking troops.

"The command centre shook with due to the heavy bombardment"

"Status, general Sidious boomed"

"Sir we have lost contact with all forces on the surface."

"Considder them dead."

"What about the defences."

"NO change sir, all sams and goalkeeper defence systems are still underground"

"hmm get me a visual."

"The viewscreen flickered on and all that could be seen was fire."

"have reinforcements brought through the tunnel and provisions for a drawn out seige."

The lights once again flickered on and off. The general said a short prayer for the men on the surface. He would npot be taken off guard again.



No offence but i dont think your subs could get into torpedo range of the tunnel due to the vast minefield of magnetic mines.

Yea.. still post losses from my Bombs, your automated defenses should be knocked out, or at least a large portion.


There were five B1-B's, soaring high, but with a different intention. At the part were the bombardment had taken place, they dropped tonnes of anti-mine chaff and EMP blockers, disabling the mines in the area.


"GO GO GO" From the carrier WentForth, four thousand Royal Marines poured out, in boats not unlike used in DDay. However, these were fitted with scaling equipment. They would shoot the top with a grappling hook once the boat was disabled next to the cliffs, and then climb up. Helicopters would make sure no infantry tried to stop them.

Most of the mines were disabled, I believe.

Actually, I believe nobody has attacked the minefields yet.

A supplie route has been stablished between Friyusistan and our fleet.The first cargos will arrive in 1 1/2 NS weeks. Actual reserves in the fleet have been estimated to be enough for 2 months of heavy combat (in ammunition mainly) Fuel and food are VERY important too. The cargo fleet will be formed by merchant and cargo ships, scorted by small convoys.

Jordaxia, Hogsweat attacked them with mine chaff, read the quote.

(OOC: Whoopsie daisy. Anyway, how does mine chaff work?
I hate all of this overreliance on technology. How do you countermeasure dumbfire? How do you mine-chaff impact mines? There is no technology there.)

They are magnetic mines apparently - EMP chaff will knock out the magnetic pulses

I posted earlier about how the marines would land..


"FRIENDLY FIRE!! FRIENDLY FIRE!!!" The shells impacted, killing hundreds of marines. Captain R Jackson and his squad were pinned down in a crater, and were under heavy fire from Sith forces. They had five rifles (G36C's), a support weapon (M249) and a heavy weapon (LAW88). Hundreds of marines had been killed in Friendly fire - they thought Friyustan was supposed to be helping them!

"Captain! More news on the radio, it seems Command will be sending no more troops in!"

"DAMNIT!"

"We're gonnah 'ave to wait 'ere for another 'our or two for backup"

"Well at least tell them that we need AntiTank support"

"Roger that Skip"

36 F/A-18 Hornet take off from the Aircraft Carriers, and dropped their loads in Sargoth Island.

You may be able to deactivate the magnetic pulses but the mines are also pressure sensitive, I thought all magnetic mines were like that. Please tell me if iam wrong as to tell the truth i know very little about modern warfare ww2 or future is my speciality.

"Sir incoming aircraft"

"So what else is new."
"You promised the pilots sir."
"Very well"

Time for your suprise gents

"All pilots to your aircraft, all pilots."

The leader of squadron balck bommed to his pilots, "move move move, tonight we get revenge."

The planes already on the lift, fuled and armed were lifted to the surface the pilots, entered their craft in transit.

"Blast doors are open"

The fighters left the safety of the hanger in peperation to reep revenge upon the incoming bombers.

(These are Beyla fighter bombers.)

"Sir! Incoming planes!"

"Ready the AA Guns."

"Roger!"

All over the ships Oerlikons and Brownings bristled, and the two great 16" AA Cannons of the Flagship raised.

On the way were more marines, to reinforce the first group. THey came with mortars, anti-tank rifles, bazookas, and LAW88's.

OOC:Midlonia origionally asked me to help him in this, and I accepted. I have been rping in the other two threads, didnt see this one till hogsweat told me(who also acknowledges me being in it). Sorry im late for this one.

IC:

"All hands to battlestations! All hands to battlestations! We are beginning an assault. All hands to battlestations!" blared the automatic ship message, and red klaxons shone through the decks.

The volksjaeger were the first to fight. They had wanted this very badly, and now was their chance. From the deck of the CHN Zeus, Rafale aircraft fired off from the deck. The best of the volksjaeger pilots, these pilots were armed with 10 Mica 2 missiles(similar to AMRAAM, lighter), 2 droptanks, and missile chaff. They zoomed towards the enemy fighters, while being careful not to come too close to the enemy SAM's.

From the CHN Chicago, Los Angeles, Omaha, and Detroit, H-2 helicopters lifted off. 1 out of five carried MEMAS missiles, 122mm unguided rockets, and 105mm cannons(these are the equivelent of Mi-26 halos, lots of wieght can be carried), while the rest were filled with troops. 100 helicopters in all, the 3rd fast division attacked. The helicopters went at a few meters above sea level towards the island. The rafales flew overhead on their way to engage the enemy fighters, as the helicopters sped to the island, to land on the top which had been cleared by bombs(the island).

OOC: Check the other thread, I posted an attack in there as well.

circled the island, knowing that staying in their own ring of sam defence was the best tactic. They circled like vultures ready for the kill.

"I want all defences above ground."

all over the island huge creeks could be heard as the defences were brought into life the blast doors lifted which were covering the coastal guns. Smoke screens were let off covering the island in what appeared to be a blanket of death.

The sams and goalkeeper defence systems were brought on-line.
Sonar beacons were activated to light up enemy subs while the torpedo installations were preparing to fire.

"The enemy fleet is closing"

"Odd's"

"Sir i dont think we will be able to win, but we will give them a run for their money."

"Thats all I expect. Have all infantry and tanks ready for the defenc, load the coastal guns (That Midlonia kindly supplied to me). Relay the order to all allied troops the battle has begun. Send an encrypted transsmission to Jordaxian naval headquaters plan black is a go."

"Yes sir."

General Sidious made his way to the temple, saying his prayers to the gods.

He mouthed the Sith army prayer and waited for battle.


"Death is our companion, a hard life long lived is our reward."

May I remind all of you that Midlonia is playing you all for fools he has left this war. He is getting you to finish what he started. I would watch your back before the knife is pluunged in, just what he did to me.

Ill take that advice Sith, although im unsure how usefull it will be. How big are your coastal guns?

205mm

ok cool, thats only 10". My assault guns can match that and destroy it.

OOC:Sith, how many figthers have you sent???

Anyway
"Almirant, incoming aircrafts"
"OK, let's keep bombarding the island to prevent their defenses to come up, and send 48 more Hornets"
"Yes, sir"
"Oh, and tell the 1st amphibious group to be ready to disembark with helo support at any time"
"Yes, sir"

The ships started firing at the island with Tomahawks and artillery fire.
The 48 Hornets left the carriers, and started moving towards the island.

"Almirant..." said coronel Trevin
"Yes, coronel?"
"Sir, it seems that at the moment we started bombarding the island, there were some Hogsweat marines figthing with Sith's troops...."
"WHAT?!?!?! What happened to them?!?!"
"We think they are all......dead" said Trevin
"FUCK! How did nobody alerted us about this?!?!?"
"We really don't know sir...."
"What a way to start a war! Killing your own allies! Send a message to their president. Say we are really sorry about the incident, and if the families want compensation, we will give it to them"
"Yes, sir"
"Oh, and one more thing....Tell them that the next landing on the island will be made by OUR troops"
"Yes, sir"

Coronel Trevin left the room. The almirant said to himself: Hell! this will be long!!

The submarines continued firing at the tunnel.......

Oops.....triple post :S

Triple.......:S

Chellian forces are pulling out. It will not fight a war that midlonia isnt even going to stay in.

I will probably pull out... impossible odds of takin that pile of crap on my own.


Withdraws from This Conflict -

Well, as it seems that Midlonia isn't going to show up, we are pulling all our forces back. We propose a peace traty signing with Unified Sith, and we are going to pay a portion of the damages caused by our attack. Do you accept US???

The fleet turned back home

"We are going home, boys" said the Almirant

An extra 45 assorted ships have arrived at our area. Extra CVFs are launching F-35 fighters to make recon sweeps, and picking off enemy ground troops.

TO SITH- I have made it clear to my forces to limit themselves to military targets.

(OOC: The blockade is over, adaptus, you are the only fleet in the position, so you don't need to stay.)
