The Facist takeover of Ireland

IC:
The new Prime Minister of the Irish half of the IKRF (Irish/Kenyan Revolution Force) approaches the podium. He places his speech on to it, and clears his throat.
"Nations of the world, we are the Irish/Kenyan Revolution Force, and we need your help. A few months ago, a seemingly average politician began to rise through the ranks of the Irish government. He was new, a nobody-but people liked him. A lot. Soon he had quite the number of companies-a large portion of them foreign-wrapped around his finger. The money seemed to flow into his pocket. No one knew that then, but it's clear now. Because, you see, once he had what he needed, he openly declared that he was a fascist, and he was intent on taking over Ireland. Our government attempted to arrest him, but he must have fled Ireland. A few days later fighting began. It wasn't long before he had taken over; our military was far from huge. The few high ranking politicians still loyal to Ireland were assasinated. We were forced to run.

Not long afterwards he began taking territory in small third-world countries. Fortunately, he spread his army too thin-Kenya managed to emerge from the fighting relatively intact. Other nations have survived as well, but the fighting continues and we have been unable to contact them. We allied with the Kenyans, and evacuated them to our base-just in time, as the fascist invader took Kenya a few hours later.

We beseech you, if you can, to help us in our time of need. The UN has yet to respond to our requests for help (*OOC). Please consider assisting us. Any supplies or military support would be greatly appreciated."

The new Prime Minister begins to walk away, and the scene changes to a reporter. He speaks briefly, and the news changes to the weather report.



OOC: *I meant the UN in this little "Irish Fascist dictator" universe, not the UN in Nation States.

If anyone decides to actually help, I'd like this to be modern tech-at least, mostly. See, I'm going to use some Mobile Suits (from the Gundam universe) and some Battlemechs (from the Mechwarrior universe). But other than mecha, I'd like it to be modern tech. I just love mecha... aah, mecha.

So, like, you can have Bushwackers and Hygoggs, but not X-Wings and Star Destroyers. Mecha=good, Other Future Stuff=bad. OK? OK.

What about Railguns, pulse lasers, genetically modified soldiers, and dropships? Those aren't as advanced as mechs are, in any way. Or my Terracoste Airships. Since they rule :D

OOC:
Uuuh... pulse lasers are OK, since they're on mechs anyway.

What are your Terracoste Airships? Do they have "Hyperdrives" or anything like that? Are they huge? Are they aerodynamic? Are they space-capable?


IC:
"Jackal squad, form on me."
Narc glanced at his radar and saw his team mates group together. It was hard to stay moving in a straight line, the sand beneath the feet of their mechs slid down the large hill they were marching along. They were in Libya, approaching an IFR (Irish Fascist Republic) base. So far there was no sign of enemies-not a surprise, considering there were already IKRF squads fighting at the enemy outpost. Narc turned off his passive radar, and told his team to do the same. Enemy contacts appeared on the other side of the next hill.
"Alright, team, it looks like Goblin squad managed to take a few buildings out. I got contact with one of them-moving fast. They must be engaged. OK, let's split into two groups. I command team A, Behemoth, you've got team B. A will rush in to the middle of the base and spread out, firing on any targets in front of them. B will stay behind and on the hill ahead, firing heavily on the base. A team will attack any targets of opportunity once they get away from the buildings. Clear?"
Everyone confirmed. They were all equipped with Mektek Owens with two LRM-10's and a Machine Gun Array, so team A would be able to deal with the structures while team B bombarded any enemy combat units. With luck Goblin squad was still capable of helping them. Finally they hit the top of the hill. Team A kept on running into the base, while team B started moving in a circle pattern around the top of the hill and the side facing away from the battle. This meant the mechs could fire their missles while on top of the hill, then run around the side and reload, then come back up and fire again.
Team A was nearly at the center of the base, and they had lost two mechs. They had three left, and B team had five.
"Keep going, A team. Move in a straight line to these nav points after we hit the center."
Narc placed nav markers on three edges of the square base.
"OK, get ready. We're approa-"
He stopped. They crossed the last building in front of them, and standing there was a Fafnir in IFR colors. It fired all its weapons on one Owens and blew it to peices.
"Team A, move. Get to the nav points."
As they ran the Fafnir fired on Narc, and he toppled over.
The lights in his cockpit died and his face slammed in to the blank viewscreen.



Prime Minister Typhon again appears. This time he has no papers, no speech.
"Nations of the world, again I beg for your assistance. Fighting has begun in Libya, and we are taking casualties the the enemy's superior military. If you can spare any-"
The signal goes dead.



OOC: Just go for a cross between present and future tech. Like in between time periods. I'll go with that.
