OOC:Note that this is a continuation of the Ottoman Empire Returns thread.

IC: Kurdish rebels began to rampage through the Parthian settlements of Kurdestan, butchering the Persians and Medes with ferocity. Over 100,000 were killed as the Kurds rampaged through the Persian quarter of Mosul and other towns in Iraq. Persian homes burned as the settlers hung from gallows.

Historic speech by the Shah-
"Today Kurdish barbarians have ransacked the Persian towns of Mosul and have killed 150,000 Persians and Medes. Now we will correct the crimes of the Kurdish barbarians, their people shall be shown no mercy."

Three F-16Es moved in towards the city of Mosul and then fired off two rockets each. The rockets burst above the city and unleashed a deadly cloud of VX upon the inhabitants. Thirty B-52s followed, each dropping many clusterbombs on the city. AH-64 Apaches moved in and strafed anyone who held anything remotely looking like a weapon.

With the Kurds in full rebellion Shah Khosru of Parthia prepared for war. 50 Divisions of troops (one million men), five Immortal divisions (125,000 Hyper-Elite Mechanized infantry and 1500 M1-A2 tanks total), Ten armoured divisons (15,000 M1-A2 tanks and various other vehicles.), and many aircraft were being moved into the Kurdestan region and Iraq. One million reservists were being called up for battle and moved to Iraq.

Persian forces from Tabriz marched into Kurdestan and began raiding homes to confiscate weapons only to be met by bombs placed inside the houses by Kurdish rebels. After 100 Persians were killed they ordered Kurds to open the doors while Persians watched from a safe distance. Less disciplined units simply tossed a molotov cocktail into Kurdish homes and detained the fleeing Kurds.

Zoroastrian Kurds have reaffirmed allegiance to Shah and Ahura Mazda. Parthian forces have in turn treated them with respect and left them untouched.

Secret IC: Unknown to Parthians, Nycton will be shipping up to 10 million ak-101 and ak-102's to the kurdish rebellion.

It began as a simple standard SS skyscraper in the nation of Armenia, city of Yerevan. Then a flood of SSCorp influence, and Armenians everyday were encountering SSCorp products in their malls. In the end, however, the militaristic side of the company reared it's head. Huge tracts of land on the Armenia-Iran border were bought up by the corporation, developed, and then, the tunnels came. Great snaking affairs, winding their way into Kurdish Iran, bringing with them advanced weaponry. Theo Lerikov knew an arms market when he saw one, and SS weaponry continually found its way into Kurdish insurgent's hands. SSAR-1 rifles, SRPG-2 RPGs, and even a few small armored vehicles found their way into Kurdish hands. Of course, they were sold at jacked-up prices, and since SS Corporation was making a massive profit, the trade was not likely to end anytime soon. Everybody won, except, of course, the Parthian government, which found out to its chagrin that the Kurdish rebels now possessed AA weaponry, AVs, and high-tech weaponry with which to combat it.

I am afraid that we have no record of your company existing in our archives. We would also seek to inform you that Armenian law prevents the existance of 'corporations' or any other manifestation of capitalism, and so if you are indeed operating inside of our borders you are doing so illegaly.

Yours Faithfully,
