KOJ begins attacks on Al-Anbari shipping.

19-04-2004, 04:42
After the attacks and belligerant stance of the nation of Al-Anbar towards the Order of Jerusalem, the Grand Master has authorized the knights to begin the seizing of merchant ships heading out of the Syrian or Lebanese coast. Thanks to the virtual absence of any formal Iraqi navy (and don't argue this, Al-Anbar, it is true), the Knights had a field day with the unprotected Iraqi shipping.

An ultamatum was given to Al-Anbar: Allow the occupation of Tyre as a haven for Christians, or forfeit your use of the Mediterranean as a shipping lane. Tyre WILL be occupied. The Christians WILL be freed.

The Xeraphian Navy is backing the KOJ with 3 Oryal Missile Frigates and 10 Mosquito Missile Boats.

1. This is ignored as per what was said in the other thread.

2. You don't have any real navy anyway. You are three days old. I would crush your puny "navy" with airpower and my few ships.

The Order has begun seizing any merchant or other vessels heading out of Syria or Lebanon, effectively closing the Medit. to Al-Anbar.
The fleet of two Sachsen-class destroyers and eight Brandenburg frigates. This represents a large portion of the Order's total naval strength.


OOC: How is it ignored? It is not a specific attack or anything. You ignore WAAAAY too easily man.

To: Al-Anbar

What you say may be true of KOJ, but now your'e messing with the combined force of the Federated Suns and the Xeraphian Federation. Further, we have solid support from at least 2 other nations that alone could defeat you. If you wish to live to fight another day, I suggest you withdraw from Tyre. We will grant you safe passage to Iraq.

OOC: He's ignored you. You can continue to ransack him though.

That will brand you a n00b by most players, but I'm going with him on this. In my view of the multiverse, you don't control Tyre and feel lucky there isn't a WMNK anymore.

OOC: Nah. Unlike Al-Anbar I really don't see the use in conquering a city if there is no one to conquer it from. The fun in RP is the conflict. Al-Anbar for some reason doesn't want to RP. Whenever his precious nation is in danger he ignores. Oh well.

OOC: That's nice. Supposedly, you thought that no one actually controlled the city in the first place, so don't try to pretend you didn't intend to attack me in the first place. Secondly, you are three days old. You are nothing. I could defeat Xeraph too, for I am older than him.

Now, who are you?

And lastly, I don't want to RP another war.

Xeraph: i didnt get your tg but i was the one that wrote the one from my toher nation.
19-04-2004, 05:19
I didnt. I am not someone else. I didnt know any controlled Lebanon and so took the city thinking it was still in turmoil as a haven. Then, of course, you owned Lebanon. There is no use in conquering Tyre if everyone recognizes you as its owner.

If you can easily defeat these nations then why don't you do it?

I know that, I just want him to come out and say it. Either that or quit hiding behind his IGNORE Cannon and fight.

September 2003 vs. December 2003 and 3 days old. I don't think he has to prove that he can beat those nations, everyone knows he could and would. He's already RPing another big war though and has no reason to accept an attack that would not be possible for a 3 day old nation to launch. Now stop acting war mongering n00bs and move on.

Jesus, if Al Anbar doesnt want to fight, dont waste time trying to coax him into it.

He doesnt want to fight, doesnt mean this thread should be turned into a thread devoted to flaming and calling out. Just let it go.

Though he does have a point, KOJ is simply three days old, thus, could it really have a navy equipped enough to play pirate?

Grand Mateo, if you knew the history of the Xeraphian Federation you would understand that the Dec. 03 date is very misleading. If you want I can explain it to you.

You have no idea do you how much power we really have? The Knights Templar are the military arm of the Priory of Sion. The PS has high ranking officials in many powerful nations and they have all decided to support us and we support KOJ.

I still see 615 million and 5 million. You would be steamrolled, case closed. Knights of the Templar, your entire nation is about 1/3 the size of my military, which I'm assuming is roughly the same size as Al Anbar's given the dates of our nations' creations. But the matter is rather unimportant, because Al Anbar has already made it clear he doesn't feel like RPing two wars at once, and yet other nations continue to hound him in an attempt to coax a fight out of him.

Well then i would say you r godmoding. A nations military should only be 2% maybe 3% thats pushing it of their entire pop. You should not have a 15 million man military.

It's 2% exactly, smart guy. I go out of my way not to god mod in NS. Please try to know what you're talking about before attempting to put someone down next time.

Great Mateo's population: 1.23bil.
1,230,000,000 / 100 = 12,300,000
12,300,000 x 2 = 24,600,000.

He could quite easily have a 15 million man army and be *considerably* under 2% - Do the math.

KOJ isn't in this alone, he has support from numerous allies and organizations. Basicly, Al Anbar just has too many enemies and they have all decided to beat the sh** out of him all at once.
