On June 7, 2004 some arctic explorers saw a beam of light go across the sky. Many people are frightened. Three search parties have been sent in the area to investigate. The only evidnece was a large peace of metal unknown to man was found. Please, give Namberia's people an idea on what this was.

... a piece of a spaceship from another country?

It was a piece of Ryanania's secret weapon that we're going to destroy Esam with. Oh, wait, you weren't supposed to know that. Please shoot yourself in the head.

Soon after this incident, Dancing Moose government officials quickly arrived on scene and 'confiscated' the wreckage. Wearing all black, and acting in complete secrecy, they spoke little.. saying only that a Dancing Moose private jet had crashed. After the wreckage, which was black and weighed extremely little, was loaded onto a covered truck... the officials quickly abandoned the area... leaving the Namberian people dumbfounded.

The Imperial German Navy has dispatched the airship(Zeppelin) L-14 to investigate the sighting. It should arrive within a week.

((OOC: The only remaining crash evidence is a 100 meter long 'gash' in the snow, so investigators from other nations better act fast.. to uncover what really happened...))

A Burnsian Royal Air Force S-12 Skylarker Spy Plane screams low over the area. It takes multiple pictures, and quickly does a U-turn to return to TBD.

After arriving a week later, the L-14 puts down in the snow of Antarctica, after easily locating the massive gash in the snow. After not finding anything at first, the crew was extremely disappointed. However, one of the crew finds a hand-sized piece of the mysterious black material. The men quickly bring it on board and the airship lifts off into the sky, heading for Imperial Germany where companies such as Krupp and IG Farben can determine the composition and possible uses of the exotic material. The captain orders four 500-lb bombs dropped on the crash site to eliminate any other evidence, and then rises to 8,000 feet.
(OOC background info: an airship of the L-14 type has a maximum speed of 65 mph, a max ceiling of 13,000 feet, has 10 machine guns for defense, and is 650 feet long and 78 feet in diameter. Crew is 16.)

We have found more pieces of strage metal a mile away from the original crash site. One of our scientists picked it up to find out it was extreemly cold. He now has frostbite. Another piece was very hot. If you have any more ideas, please answer.

Several hours later, the pictures appear on a government sponsered conspiracy show.

I'll tell you what it was it was them nazi's that did it all it's all a set-up. Why do you think it took them so long to get there they didn't want to blow their cover, that's what it is. I have recently discovered a small tracking device in one of the pieces of metal. This device is only used to guide bombers into your homes. Please if you have a piece of this black metal send it to Saint Andrea where our scientists will ship it back to where it came from hopefully the nukes will bomb their own country!

The Lord Commander of Ximea issued a statement this morning. He said that he was "mildly curious" about the mysterious crash, since an unidentified object was reported over Ximea not too long ago. He went on to advise the nation of Saint Andrea to "knock it off before we declare war on your pasty white ass."

"Mein Furher. We have recieved a message from Namberia. They want all intrested nations to help them investigate a 'crash site.' What are your orders?" Oberst Furher Heinrich said, after a quick run through the former Premieral building, now renamed the 'Reich Building.' He was exhausted. Heinrich wasn't used to the long runs that the previous Premier's aide had been.

"Deploy a team to examine the crash site. You never know. It could be the crash of one of our allies. Or it could be an intergalatic toilet unit for all we know. I want to know." The Furher replied. He was preocupied with more...pressing issues, and couldn't afford to give Heinrich his full attention.

"Ja Mein Furher!" Heinrich said, his heels clicking as he left the room.

Within hours, a Skyranger II VTOL transport lifted off from a classified military base. Carrying a small military team, as well as a few scientists, it made it to the site in a grueling 8 hour flight.

Touching down, the monsterous aircraft lowered its ramp. Two figures stepped out. Each was wearing a highly insulated hazard suit, and carried an XM-10 "Masterkey" flechette rifle/shotgun combonation.

Two mroe figures stepped out of the transport. What set these apart from the previous soldiers was the fact that they wore white hazard suits and were unarmed. One was waving a geiger counter around nervously however.

Suddenly, *Click.* A sound that resembled frying bacon, or falling rice, was heard coming from the geiger counter. "Oh my god! This site has more radioactivity than Chernobyl! I'm pretty damned glad that we've got these suits on!" One of the scientists yelled. The suits would let them examine the highly radioactive crash site for a maximum of one day. They had to make the best use of that time.

"Mekanta wishes to examine this wreckage. One of our toilets was lost, plummeting to Earth..."

In polar orbit above Antarctica, several of our SBR stations reported an object giving off intense radioactivity in the gamma ray region falling toward the surface. It also nearly hit one of the SBL stations, but the gunner managed to break off a piece that would have hit. The object absorbs a lot of laser fire before being damaged, and has an albedo of 0.01, the lowest for any object in this solar system.
My guess is that it's the material from a stealth missile or possibly a stealth spacecraft.

A C-17 lands nearby the crash, then 30 men get out all carrying cans of gasoline. The throughly dose the crash area and set it a blaze. After the fire has been put out they dig a 10 foot deep hole in the burned out area. They then fill the hole with bricks. After filling the hole with bricks, they remove all of the bricks and fill the hole back in. This is the report from the head scientist:

"Now that we know how many bricks fit in the hole we can determine how heavy the hole would be if it were full of bricks."

He than concludes, "Now to prevent anyone from knowing this!"

The scientist the proceeds to detonate the plane in mid air whilest everyone with him was onboard including himself and the findings.

The crash site has been nearly completely destroyed, due to the bombing from the zeppelin and and the hose/burn of the others. However, many pieces of the mysterious black metal are now spread around several nations. What will the originators do about this?

OOC: We are NOT nazis, Imperial Germany is a German monarchist region standing for Prussian ideals.
