Three battlefleets, consisting each of Two Aurora Class Guided missile Cruisers, a Vanguard Class CVN and accompanying escort ships, have blocked the use of the Red Sea, and therefore, the Suez Canal, to Communist Mississipi. Any armed ships flying the flag of CM attempting to run this blockade will be destroyed, and unarmed ships boarded and moved to Socotra.

A submarine task force is also in the area, and the remainder of the military is on full alert.

All available Fleet assets are ordered to be ready for sea. We will be moving shortly.

We thank our great ally DPUO for their assistance!

We will send the carrier Valiant to support the naval action in the Red Sea.

Psov will send what cruisers it can to aid in any naval effort to stop CM's expansion and limit his power.

We appreciate all support given, and call on all anti-racist nations in the region to do likewise.

ooc- Hmm.. I have a lot of shipping that travels from Sudan to the Indian Ocean.. that won't be affected, will it?

IC -

Subject: Blockade

The Commonwealth, though neutral in any conflict in regards with Communist Mississippi, wishes to offer our moral support to Kanabia. The 3rd Battlefleet is currently stationed in Granzian Yemen. We would be willing to let Kanabian and allied vessels refuel at the ports of Aden and Al Hudaydah. Dry docks and the neccessary facilities will be made available upon request. We wish you luck.

Any nation hostile to Communist Mississippi is welcome to use the Bonstocknian protectorate of Sudan as a base for military operations and repenishment. Feul and ammo are plentiful, and all anti-CM ships are welcome.

In addition, four Bonstocknian carrier battle groups (each with a CVX carrier, 6 Zumwalt destroyers, and two Seawolf subs) will aid the blockade.

Greenmanbry owns Sudan, not you. I don't recognize your claim to it.

Bonstock - We're talking Earth II here..

I claimed Sudan and Chad, and even RPed taking over them.

Wait, I RPed owning Sudan quite a while ago.

Damn Earth II.

oh well, I guess I exist on a different world then CM.

*thinks a moment*

HURRAY!!!

anyway, if you don't recognize my claim to Sudan, CM, I don't recognize your claim to Libya, Egypt, West Sahara, or anywhere else.

The Soviet Naval command will send the following submarines..they will be placed under Bonstock control.

5 Oscar III Class Anti-Ship Submarines.

They are equipped with the Yakhont Anti-Ship Missile.

The supersonic P-800 Yakhont (Gem) is a ramjet version of P-80 Zubr [SS-N-7 Starbright]. The ship, submarine and coastal-launched Yakhont is launched from the unified ampoule-shaped transport-launching container (TLC). The container is 9 m long, is 0.71 m in diameter. The firing range reaches 300 km (162 nmi.) when flying along a combined trajectory and 120 kg (265 lb.) when following only a low-altitude trajectory. Flight speed varying over the range from M=2.0 to M=2.5 is provided by the kerosene-fueled multi-mode liquid-fuel ramjet. The P-800 Bolid is the encapsulated, submarine launched version of Yakhont.

Not quite.. You do control Taiwan and Eastern China..

I think that Navy of yours better move right away if it wants to reach the Red Sea before hell breaks loose.. ;)

Plus, Port Blessed in Greenmanbry's Sudan may accept your ships. :)

You all realise this is an intent to attack CM, which would allow them to declare war.

OOC: Anyone got bases nearby that I can use for strategic bombers?

Jonothana, many of us have already declared war.

ooc: all right, I own China and Taiwan on Earth II, I own Sudan on Earth I, but the latter is irrellevant. So...

ic: Four Bonstocknian carrier groups speed as fast as they can to the Red Sea, though it will take them a few days.

The Bonstocknian government thanks Soviet Malatose for command of the submarines, which will be put to good use in the blockade.

We request that Bonstock check his TGs :p

OOC: Let me start off by saying I own NO RL nations. I believe the practive of such is not only stupid, but highly illogical. By the time our nations, which don't exist in real life, reached the population they were at now, fucking gibraltar would have a billion person population.

However, that doesn't really matter. You see, fleets are made to survive on their own for quite awhile. And thereby...
IC:
At this time, the Socialist Federation of Free Pacific States, with the approval of both Congress and President Matthew Terrus, has issued orders for the Third and Seventh Carrier Task Forces, along with the Second Amphibious Assault Force, to take up positions reinforcing the Kanabian blockade. These vessels will treat CM and Nuetral vessels the same as Kanabian forces.

Together, the fleets consist of the following
(1) Nimitz Class Aircraft Carrier
(1) Kitty Hawk Class Aircraft Carrier
(1) Austin class LPD Class Attack Submarine
(1) Whidbey Island class LSD (landing ship, dock)
(1) Virginia Class Nuclear Submarine
(2) Long Beach Class Guided Missile Destroyer
(2) Sprunance Class Destroyer
(2) Seawolf Attack Submarines
(2) Wasp Class LHD with:
-(6) AV-8B Harrier attack planes
-(4) AH-1Z SuperCobra attack helicopter
-(12) CH-46 Sea Knight helicopters
-(9) CH-53 Sea Stallion helicopters
-(4) UH-Y Huey Helicopters
-(2) LCU Landing Craft
-(3) LCAC Landing Craft
-(6) LCM-8 Landing Craft
-(40) AAV Amphibious Assault Vehicle
(3) Ticonderoga Class Guided Missile Destroyer
(3) Arleigh Burke Class Guided Missile Destroyer
(3) Oliver Hazard Class Guided Missile Frigate
(3) T-AK 96 Class Combined Ammunition, Oiler, and Supply Ship

This thread is (hopefully) redundant. CM has moved out of Libya and is holding elections in Egypt.

Damn Earth II.

Yes, that's the great hypocrisy of Earth II. In my opinion they are just paranoid idiots who don't remember the golden rule of Nationstates, forged so long ago:

ALL NATIONS EXIST. ALL NATIONS HAVE THEIR CLAIMS. THESE CLAIMS MUST BE RESPECTED EVEN IF YOU ARE IN THE SAME CLAIM.

Henceforth why I share the Soviet Union with over 8 nations, I'd expect. Many of them I'm great friends of..

Earth II is just a bunch of hypocrites who don't recognize others' claims, and then shields themselves with a shield of impunity, stating that invaders simply don't 'exist.' Earth II is a crock of shit.

OK, If you are still attacking CM after his abandoning of his African colonies then you are some of the most agressive people known to man.

Or just concious, moral-minded people?

The blockade has been lifted in light of CM's concessions.

OOC: Give me a break Parthians, I needed to sleep :p

Bonstock, you dont own sudan in earth 1.

Good, the blockade has been lifted!

FPS forces have also been withdrawn from the area, and the blockade has been officially lifted.
