"Hello, I am Ivan Korchnav with the Red News Network (RNN). Today is a great day for the citizens of Spencer and Wellington as today the Communist Leader Vladmir Porchiv took over today and freed you from capitalist oppression. In a brilliant coup, Spencer and Wellington generals sympathetic to the Communist cause took over the government. This day should forever be held as dear to the hearts of the people. Of course, everybody should know that resistance is futile. I am Ivan Korhnav signing of with RNN. Good night."

We demand that the communist government steps down from power as its idea of creating a utopia will never be reached and simply jeopardise the lives of the citizens of your nation. We are prepared to take the necessary steps to remove you from power.

We wish to know what the mood of the poeple towards this coup is before we take action, if any.

The spread of such a vile rhetoric that would never be fulfilled must be stopped or else more people will suffer and perish under a misguided view of false hope.

*Shows Ivan Korchnav walking along the street. He stops a man and asks him*

"Comrade, what do you think about the recent takeover by the Communists?

"I love it. Everybody is equal. I dont have to worry about whether I'll be able to eat tonight. Its much better than the corrupt capitalist system."

"Thank you comrade."

"The Celtayoshi government wishes to send in its own advisors to gauge the mood to the people. We hope you will let them enter and carryout there work without interference."

This is your final warning. Step down from power.

Meanwhile at BattleTech HQ:

"Sir we've just received a message concerning a new military operation,"exclaimed the young Communications Rep as the message printed out. The General slowly walked over and calmly picked up the paper to see what this curious message was all about:

"Hmmm I see. Well Jaegar see to it that we have a minor pack of G-Wing bombers prepared to take off for Spencer and Wellington."

To Celtayoshi: yes i will let your inspectors carry out their work.

To Drum Gods: No

The 5 members of the Diplomatic Mission will depart immediately. They will be flying in on a chartered Air Celtayoshi flight. From there they wil spend a day gathering information, and will reprot back before leaving your nation.

(OOC: what is the actual mood of the people just so i rp this along what you want.)

ooc:most of them hate it but will not say so due to fear of punishment

Well, the consequences of your actions will soon be felt.

(OOC: For times sake lets assume the 5hour flight is over)

The 5 men passed through customs quickly, they all carried diplomati identity badges. First of all they would target the city streets, beofre knocking politely on doors. They hoped that if they were not being followed by government police they could get honest answers, as it had often been the case that intimedation had been used.

Meanwhile in Spencer and Wellington HQ.

Communications Operator: Sir we have just intercepted a transmission from Drum Gods.

Director: What does it say?

Communications Operator: I dont know, its encoded, but something is going on.

Director: K, i'll relay this to command.

End Result: 10 MiG-21s have been launched to patrol the skies of Spencer and Wellington and the army has been put on high alert.

"Good afternoon sir, we are from the Celtayoshi Diplomatic Mission, we wish to know what your feelings are about this coup?"

"Its, its, very good for me, I mean I will get more benfits right..."said the man in the street, very nervously.

"Thank you sir." They left, all in general agreement that the man was clearly shaken and they agreed he probably didn't like this. They got a similar reaction from other members of the public, however very few actually said they didn't like the revolution. It was not enough to base a war on, however it was enough to warrant close attention. And that meant the CYSIS would get involved.

In the capital police station:

Police Chief: I want a list of all the people those diplomats talked to, now!

Officer: Here sir.

Police Chief: Good i want all of them vaporized. They never existed.

OOC: I'm itching to bomb someone though... :) Anyway, I really need to get my army revised, got double what I have on file this now and I haven't even included any of my new products into my own armed forces yet..

Encrypted Message to Lasatania:

This is what i have to work with.

250,000 AK-47 Assault Rifles
50 MI-17 Helicopters
100 2S1 122mm SPG Artillery
200 BMP-1 IFVs
50 T-64 tanks

Ouch... Okay, we'll keep a military presence in place until such times as threats against your government die down..

We congratulate the people of Spencer and Wellington on their victory over capitalism! Now, you may count yourself under the protection of the Federation, the First Communist International, and the USR. To assure our confidence in you, we would like to move two Airborne Divisions and give weapons to update your military. With your permission, of course.

The two B-Minor packs entered Spencer and Wellington airspace flying at high altitude so as to escape detection they observed the land below.

One minor pack:

18 G-Wing Stealth Fighters
15 G-Wing Stealth Bombers
12 Hypersonic H-A Bombers
15 Nightmare Swarm 'Mirage' Fighters
8 Imperial Special Weapons (S-W) Multirole aircraft

They soon picked up the presence of troops down below and so they commenced fire. Initially, each fighter launched 2 Swarm Missiles at the enemy. A single Swarm missile upon release splits into 5 smaller missiles so that it maxmises the amount of damage done upon a target and increases accuracy. That makes a total of 76 missiles which split into 5 each makes 380 smaller missiles. These were aimed at any anti-aircraft or heavy vehicles that were present on the ground.

Meanwhile the bombers commenced with a cluster bombing of the city above which it flew. The hypersonic bombers flew at an exceptionally high altitude to avoid detection while the Mirage Bombers equipped their own technology which creates an electric field to make detection and locking on by enemy equipment very difficult.

Doesn't make much difference to my forces.. their a minimum of three days away... looks like you've pretty much done a whole load of collateral damage to say the least...

If you don't back down, Drum Gods, we will form a coalition of nations, proceed to annihilate the military-industrial complex of your nation, occupy it, then rebuild it as a left-wing utopian paradise.

Being prepared for immediate deployment:

320 Tu-22Mu "Backfire II"
200 Tu-160u "Blackjack II"
40 KB-40 "Blizzard"
80 K-32 "Firefox" Forward Swept Wing Interceptor Aircraft
200 K-29M "Fulcrum II"
300 MiG-31u "Foxhound"

Lasatania will provide four squadrons from its airforce for such a mission:

2 sqdns of LAS-XB1 Blackbear

2 sqdns of LAS-XB2 Bedbug

(details of these are here:

LAS-XB1 - http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=7229309&postcount=9

LAS-XB2 - http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=364861


It is suggested that these squadrons are used as a forward strike force for any major mission, given their stealth capability.

OOC: Similar bomber to my KB-40...

We are more than prepared to call in our alliances to aid us as we are sure they will should you attempt to go against us though we are confident that alone we will be able to remove the communist filth that currently occupies Spencer and Wellington. Currently, we await the reports of our initial attacks.

Quite.. though I can't remember the exact concept mine's is based 0on by I think it was the Tupolev bureau or something like that..

We know very well that the only thing you seek is "Lebensraum" and we are fully prepared to call upon all the nations we can muster to ensure the total defeat of your nation.

If it must be war to stop you, it is so.

If you are about to use this as an excuse to attack the Empire then you will be punished to the full extent possible. We will do whatever it takes to defend as that is exactly what it would be. We have no problem with you but confront us and you will face the consequences.

(OOC: Gotta go, finished work - I know its sad working on a sunday!)

IC: Lasatania will provide full military support Kanabia in its efforts against the Drum Gods. Further details will be established at a later point in time.

Airfields in southern Hallad sprung to life. They preped twenty-four for launched, twelve S-37 "Berkut" and twelve MiG-2000H LFI. Eight An-124 Condors took off toward Spencer and Wellington, four of them dropped medical supplies outside the city which was burning.

The other four went toward the closest military base and dropped the follwing supplies:

25,000 AK-74 w/Under barrel 6GD15 Grenade Launcher
30,000 H&K USP Expert
10,000 RPK-74N2 Light Machine Gun
10,000 FIM-92A Stinger Missile Launcher
20,000 M224 60mm Lightweight Mortar
200,000 Magizines, each weapon.

Drum Gods, it is you pushing this war, we only seek to ensure the protection of a nation that you are unjustly attempting to invade. If you wish to continue your current position, it is you that will face the consequences, not us.

OOC: Fair enough, we'll continue this tomorrow.

Message Lasatania

Would you be so keen to protect a country if definitive prove can be found that the people are being forced to support this government against their will. We have no intentions of war, but we do seek justice.

Celtayoshi

We of Random Kingdom are overjoyed by the takeover of your nation by communists but are saddened to see people who oppose your cause. A guarded freight airplane will land in your capital's airfield with aid teams and resources should the enemy cut off your trade routes. Plus, militarists who are not tied up in the current conflicts will join a volunteer militia and will be dropped off in the battlefields. Helicopter squadrons, which have just completed their initiation, will trail behind. We hope you win the war against the right-wing scum.

Though we do not agree with many communistic principles, the Allied States of the Peloponesus will come to the aid of our neighbor, Spencer and Welington with what little aid our small coutry can give. Three infantry divisions (20,000 men each) supported by one armoured division (500 M-2 Ares MBTs, 400 M-8 Hoplite fighting vehicles, 250 Hermes LRVs) If you will give us permission to use your airfields we will also dispatch 75 F-11 Pegusus fighters (modeled after the Mig 29)

Offical Republic Of Endenia Statement

Although we oppose the change of government through coups, we do not agree with the nation of Drum God stance on this. Just because a nation changes its government does not give another nation the excuse to attack it, even more so if the nation is in a weaken state. We call upon all involved nations to stand down its military forces especially Drum Gods and also request that Multi-Lateral talks begin to calm the situation. If the nation of Drum Gods continues to press on with its offensive towards Spencer and Wellington, they will risk sanctions from the Republic and possible Missile strikes on their Military forces.

Again we urge peace and not war in this delicate situation.


Thank You,
Regards
2nd Councillor John Knox
Vice-President Of The Republic.

The Federation has merely dropped medical supplies to Spencer and Wellington. However, we are not standing for the attack on civilians by Drum Gods. We are for peace talks.

Drum Gods, if you invade Spencer and Wellington, you will face the full wrath of the armies of Shessara.

As it is, 500,000 troops from Western Shessara have been deployed to Spencer and Wellington.

Official Statement from The Proletariat Commonwealth of The Island of Rose:

If you so as dare to enter Roman waters, I will have men anal rape your boats, your soldiers, your carriers, your leaders, and yourself. Leave Spencer and Wellington alone, or I will use my powers as Proconsul of The New Roman Empire to call on the fury of a combined Roman coalition to defend him. Well, as soon as this blockade breaks anyway...
-President Sergei Ilyanov of The Island of Rose

Any further attacks on Spencer and Wellington will result in a full scale military mobilization by the Republic.

Fyodor Leningrad Zyteslav
Prime Minister of the Soviet Socialist Republic of Hattia

We thank all of you for helping to defend my nation. We of Spencer and Wellington, of course hope that we could resolve this in a peaceful manner.

I send my best wishes that this conflict can be ended in peace, like the war waged between me and the United States of Nick. In fact, that former war is similar to this conflict in many ways. Both were between the Left-Wing Activists/Communists and Right-Wing Politicians. If there are any more attacks on Spencer and Wellington that I am aware of, I will declare war on Drum Gods.

OOC: S&W you should post your losses. Drum Gods bombed a military base and city of yours.

From RNN Studios:

"Hello, we have the final casultie report from the bombing raid by the Drum Gods. They are 8000 civilians dead, 3000 military personel dead, 5000 AK-47s destroyed, 3 MI-17 Helicopters destroyed, 2 pieces of 2S1 artllery destroyed, 21 BMP-1 IFVs destroyed, and 4 T-64 tanks destroyed. This is truly a sad day for Spencer and Wellington. We will bring you more information as it comes in."

S&W being one of your valued customers i would like to help you out if possible. My forces will be sent out at your word. You being such a good arms dealer, i will offer a one time free military help offer.
I will wire word to blacktower of your struggles.

btw any contributions to my nations military would be greatly appreciated

:mp5:

OOC: The following is a Secret recon mission. You can RP that your radar picked up a small craft, but that it was too small to be anything bigger than either solar shrapnel or even a hostile aircraft. I do not intend to attack S&W as of now. This is a friendly, non-hostile operation.

Secret: Dothan Military Base On Purchased Demonic Terrorist Land:
On runway 6, a B-1B modified long range bomber, missing 1/4 of its ordanance devices due to the computer and recon technologies taking up space began taxing and preparing for take-off.

The aircraft carried 60 Mk-82 general purpose bombs, CBU-89 cluster munitions, and 20 GBU-31 JDAM GPS guided bombs. (OOC: Got this from the wikipedia file on B-1B Lancer) It also caried 4 crewman, and about 4 million USD recon, radar jamming, and stealth technologies.

Tower: Tower to Fox. Tower to Fox. You are cleared for take-off.

Fox: Fox is clear. Ingition on. Afterburners active and wings swept.

Tower: Affirmative. All is go.

Fox: Fox has reached 125 mph out of a maximum 1.25 mach. We are leaving the runway.

Tower: Increase speed to 500 mph at 34,000 feet then to mach 1 at 54,000 feet. That gives you a good 6,000 foot clearance from the ceiling. Good luck Fox.

Fox exited Fascian airspace, acceleratng to 560 mph at around 40,000 feet. It continued to climb. It began preparations to unsweep the wings as it pierced the sound barrier at the designated height, its' wings sweeping back.

Radio silence filled the waves as the radar jamming kicked in, knocking down their radar point down to that of almost nothing. Not to mention, almost any SAM missile wouldn't be able to lock on or even reach the height. It wouldn't pick up their heat signature unless it was within 32 feet due to the Reduction Technologies implanted in the burners.

They entered the radar range of S&W. They were ordered to fly over the capital city and outlying rural areas. The Merrik V90 recon camera snapped a picture every 4.5 seconds, clipping rural areas and residental zones along with several major industrial complexs. They increased their altitude for saftey purposes as they flew over the capital, snapping pictures of the commercial district aswell as the administration areas.

The hopefully were undetected (Probably) as they soared out of the Wellington airspace. Headed towards an undisclosed airbase...

OOC: Blacktower, you do realise that the Dolphin class submarine is a recon sub, right?

My nations armies have come to a stand at S&W borders. We shall not enter until given word to do so by S&W.

If negotitions do not go well tommorow active force will be taken against Drum God. :sniper:

I do. no one else is doing any recon, so why not me?

OOC: I did aerial recon. That counts as recon.

Random Kingdom would like to help in this conflict, but how? We have a very weak military base, a weak economy and weak ruler. Can we help at all?

ooc: can you make smores? that would be great :D

Random Kingdom would like to help in this conflict, but how? We have a very weak military base, a weak economy and weak ruler. Can we help at all?

OK. I pledge support for Spencer and Wellington against these right-wing menaces. An airplane will land in the capital with another aid package. Also, what little military support we can give will be dropped off. Don't expect much, though. About 1000 volunteers, 11 spies, 140 recruits, 20,000 survival kits, 10 prefab homes (carried in via ship), materials for 10,000 air raid shelters and a heap of construction materials should be arriving within 24 NS hours.

Thanks to all. Blacktower, you have permission to enter S&W territory and take up defensive positions.

Also in the capital bunker:

General: I want all S&W equipment in defensive positions on the coast. The attack will have to come from there.

Second in Command: Yes sir, I will relay that and have it done.

Our Humble nation offers 5 Flaming Ninja Death Squads to S&W, to be used for Recon on the ground, and also for crucial protection of key leaders (each squad contains 20 men, broken into 5 man cells)

each flaming ninja death squad specializes in assassination, LRP's, protection, and spying. Their weakneses are close combat, operating vehicles/mechanized units, and explosives.

Will will accept your assistance. They will be used to guard our head of state and top generals.

We have sent 25,000 troops that are awaiting at your borderfor your orders, we have also sent 25 T-34 tanks and 10 BMP-1 fighting vehicles. We are awiting for permission to enter and where to deploy.

A small patrol flock of five Mi-24's flew across a stretch of the Spencer and Wellignton border. The origin of this quad was designated by the small number under the Iron Cross that symbolised the Fascist Confederacy. It came from the colony/military-base of Dothan: 252. The patrol had been sent to over-view and report about the happening at the border over several hours...

* Length: 17.5 m (fuselage)
* Height: 6.5 m (gear down)
* Wing span: 6.5 m
* Rotor diameter: 17.3 m
* Weight: 8,500 kg (empty), 12,000 kg (max. take-off)
* Power: Two Isotov TV-3 turbines, 2,200 shp (1.6 MW) each
* Speed: 380 km/h (max.), 310 km/h (cruise)
* Ceiling: 4,500 m, 1,500 m (hover)
* Crew: 2
* Cargo: Eight troops or four stretchers
* Armament: 12.7 mm YaKB-12,7 Yakushev-Borzov multi-barrel machinegun, four ATGMs and 1,500 kg of other weapons load on 4 hardpoints (typical: 4 of 57 mm rocket pods or bombs)
* Range: Confidential

Sirens rang through out the Double Alpha Airbase close to the boarder with S&W. A group of twenty four pilots ran out to their machines, SKA-1 "Rude Boy" Attack Helicopters, which were already fuelled and armed. They would be informed of their mission in the air, for now they started up their engines. After a few minutes they took off, toward S&W.

They're told that a group of helicopters had been detected crossing the S&W boarder by Halladi radar and satellite detection. They weren't from Spencer and Wellington, and thus were assumed to be a Drum Gods attempt to install insurgents.

The squadrom sent to intercept them consisted of twelve helicopters. More than enough to deter the enemy forces. They wouldn't arrive at their object for another fifteen minutes. They were given constant updates.

OOC: The SKA-1 "Rude Boy" Attack Helicopter (http://s3.invisionfree.com/TNRE/index.php?showtopic=118)

The border base of Simtakis was aroused by alarms. Attack helicopters were nearby and the base was put on high alert. 10 MI-17 Helicopter were sent up to observe but were ordered not to fire until fired upon.

My soldiers will be waiting at your border shortly

OOC: I didn't cross the border. They patrolled on the outside of it.
A good 10 miles outside of it, just to observe the happenings and surroundings.

Oh yes Drum Gods, that is a great way to show the good of capitalism and the corporate states. Attacking civilians will gain you the support of them for sure.

May I first say that your nations leaders must apparently have the I.Q. of a child with a mental defect. Most likely down syndrome but that would even bring down them.

Secondly, you have No right to police other nations governmental changes. They do not get involved the way your nations government works, so I will tell you to do the same. Not only are you going to be seen as the warmongering bad guy because you attacked a small socialist state, but you will also probably have little to no support from anyone who has any respect. Maybe you can get the support of Hataria?

Would you be so keen to protect a country if definitive prove can be found that the people are being forced to support this government against their will. We have no intentions of war, but we do seek justice.

OOC: We have our own, somewhat complex agenda...

****Official announcement from Lasatanian Foreign Ministry****

To all parties involved in this debacle,

Lasatania as a state not tied by any treaties or alliances, has declared its intention to defend the state of Spencer and Wellington against what we consider to be unprovoked and unfounded attack.

To this end, we have deployed one full army, one naval fleet and a number of squadrons from the LAF. Any nation attacking these forces will be attacking the state of Lasatania itself and such actions will be taken as a declaration of war.

In addition to this, any nation threatening the use of nuclear weapons shall find itself targeted by Lasatanian Strategic Nuclear Forces. We have a number of submarines situated throughout the world, capable of launching a major strike against any nation making such a launch.

Should the ground situation deteriorate any further, we shall deploy more forces to the region and shall consider taking pre-emptive action against agressors.

"General, orders from the High Command, we are to begin targeting and arming our long-range bombardment missiles at Drum God's Military Targets."

"Thank you, all silos begin arming missiles."

"Silo 1 armed and ready."

"Silo 5 Armed and ready."

"Excellent, begin picking targets and await my signal."

Communique to Endenian Military Command

Status: Urgent

Please direct missile strikes against SAM sites, Radar Stations, and Airfields operating interceptor squadrons in preparation for a large scale strategic bombing mission.

OOC: I didn't cross the border. They patrolled on the outside of it.
A good 10 miles outside of it, just to observe the happenings and surroundings.

Mind if I quote you?

A small patrol flock of five Mi-24's flew across a stretch of the Spencer and Wellignton border.

Communique to Endenian Military Command

Status: Urgent

Please direct missile strikes against SAM sites, Radar Stations, and Airfields operating interceptor squadrons in preparation for a large scale strategic bombing mission.

If you wish this kind of mission done, we would be willing to mount a full air raid using stealth bombers and long range cruise missiles...

"General we have recieved a targeting request from Kanabia. They are requesting that we strike all SAM strikes, radar stations and their Airfields."

"Very well, all silos switch targets and open fire."

With that command, silo doors open to reveal long-range Cruise Missiles that launch out of its concrete housing and streak in the direction of the target.

"10 Mins to impact sir."

Several Akula-II, Prometheus, and Modified Seawolf class submarines prepared to enter optimal range to fire their cruise missiles at similar targets...travelling at full speed at very shallow depth, however, the subs were somewhat vulnerable. The captains hoped that if trouble arrived, the onboard SA-20 (on the Akula-II and Prometheus classes) and Rapier-II missiles (on the Seawolf classes) would hopefully hold off any air threats for the time it would take to launch the missiles...

15 minutes, and they would be on their way.

http://jasont.media.mit.edu/pictures/thunder/slides2/img_n_01.jpg

The Cruise Missiles streaked through the air and rapidly approached their targets. "General, the first missile is about to strike."

The first missile flew towards her target, a Sam Site that was preventing air-planes from penetrating Drum Gods airspace. It impacted on the Sam and destroyed it.

"General, the missiles are bombarding them now."

The other missiles flew closer to their targets, one hit another Sam Site, obliterating it while two hit a Rader Station nearby. Another two more struck one of the airfields, destorying an empty hanger and an office building. The rest of them missed their targets and impacted on random targets.

"General, the first wave is done, shall we arm another?"

"Contact Kanabia Command, ask them if there is any other targets for us to hit."

OOC: Don't post his losses, let him do that. Lasatania, can you remove the img tags from those pics and leave just the URL? they're too big and screw up my screen. Not only that, but theres an issue for 56k users.

OOC: AH! i forgot!! Apologies to Drum Gods!!!

OOC: Quick, edit your post! :D :p

OOC: I'm sorry for the confusion. When I meant across, it was intended to mean parallel. Please, just disregard the post about my chopers. Thanks.

OOC: I believe there was a point in this RP a few pages back where I said I wanted the RP stopped in terms of anything happening until I could get back. Now I reappear and find 101 military missions against without really giving me the chance to sort anything out. I want to do this RP but I do have other commitments apart from this and so basically I want to pick up from where I left off as I requested rather than attempt to realistically try to deal with this which I said I did not want to do.

Being a customer of S&W our nation will grant any and all of our (outdated) support should a war break out.

OOC: I'm off for a few hours so don't do anything drastic I don't want to come back and find 10 pages and off attacks blah blah because I won't be bothered to reply to them all I'll just pick up from where I left off.


I'd say it's been significantly more than a few hours.

well, dont plan a war when you got lots of stuff to do :P

OOC: I understand, but really, as far as I can see its only recon missions and deployments apart from the page before this one where you had missiles fired at you. You can safely disregard most of it. Plus, it's only 3 pages, so it shouldn't take long to skim through.

basically we are at the point in the RP where you withdrawl your troops or watch them all die.

OOC: Wilco, I forget that some people are stuck on 56K - I'm sat at work on at T9 cable for this so I forget.. then I go home and have 56K and cry!

<OOC: i remove the pix and thread dies... gah..?

(ooc: Im waiting for drumgods to do something. I cant do much else lol)

Although we still oppose the current regime we have decided to cease activities concerning this nation as several more pressing matters have appeared that must be dealt with first.

All Halladi Soldiers in S&W have been pulled out. Relief work shall continue with round the clock air drops. Medical Supplies and food is being dropped.

Peloponesian troops has been pulled out of S&W. President Alexandros Parmenio chuckles softly at the Drum God reasoning for their retreat.

looks like this ended without any serious aggression

all troops have been pulled due to impending war on the homefront.

Lasatania will withdraw the large percentage of its forces from the area, though half a dozen MiG-25s and an airborne battallion shall remain in situ for another month to ensure hostilities have totally died down..

OOC: Damn, lol.

IC: We are lowering our alert status, but remain ready to strike if any untoward actions are taken.
