Marguerite Bay, Antarctic. Off Alexander Island. 0500 hours

OOC:This is assuming the area i'm talking about isn't all freezed

Praetorian Sub-Commander Darius walked to the bridge of Imperial Navy Morningstar-class destroyer IWS Buteo. On the bridge,
the crew where on their duties. Darius saw the captain of Buteo next to a table with activated 3-D holographic project-
or showing the part of Antarctica where Buteo was. Darius walked to the captain
"Captain, are we in position"
"Ah, Sub-Commander Darius. I didn't see you. Yes we are ready, your team is good to go"
"Excellent"Darius took a microphone connected to ship's intercom"Attention. This is Sub-Commander Darius. All praetorians
assigned to Landing Party Alpha report to the deck. We are landing. This is not a drill. This is not a drill"

Several minutes later 40 soldiers from 6th Praetorian Guard's Regiment, dressed in army arctic uniforms, stood on the bridge.
Darius looked at his men and gave his orders:"Okay men. This is it. This operation cannot afford to fail. The emperor himself
has ordered this operation. The Empire depends on you"
The praetorians raised their left fists and shouted:"FOR THE GLORY OF THE EMPIRE!!!"
"Let's roll!"The praetorians exited the ship into the ice via wide rope ladders in the side of the ship. Several special arctic
tracked vehicles were lifted off the ship. The soldiers took a spearhead.
formation and started moving towards the beach.
"Geez...it's cold out here.DISCS(Digital Integrated Soldier Combat System) shows 35- temperature"
"No kidding"Darius said. After few minutes the team had made it's way to the beach.
"This is LP Alpha. We have reached waypoint Alpha. Proceeding to Beta"Darius took a flag with a small transponder and put
it into ground. WP alpha was the place where a small port was to be built.

The soldiers proceeded inlands. When they reached WP Beta, where the main camp was to be built, Darius contacted the Buteo
"This is LP Alpha. We have reached Beta. Everything's alright here. We're setting up the camp"
"Roger that Alpha. We'll notify High Command. End transmission"
Darius looked at his men:"Okay guys we're setting up the camp here. Let's move it! Double time!"
The men started unloading material from the vehicles and building their camp.

Three months later. Imperial Antarctic Base Alpha. Alexander Island, Atlantic.
Sub-Commander Darius, now in command of IAB Alpha, looked at the 3D-hologram on the table of the command center. The hologram
was a 3-D map of the base, including it's underground parts. Darius turned to his XO, Lieutenant Powell
"How are the constructions progressing.
"Ahead of schedule. They got some difficulties down there in the underground projects, but the surface part, including peri-
meter defense grid, is ready"
"Excellent. This project has been costly, but the rewards shall be great"

The men looked at another hologram of the base area. The area 1 km from the base was surrounded by a 8-meter tall wall.
There were six perimeter outposts near the walls, and there were sensors and defense systems, such as gatling guns, in
positions near the walls. On the coast, there was a small harbour facility. The base itself comprised of three levels
on the surface and six underground levels. Communication to the NIR was handled by satellites.

"And what's the best thing is that these kind of operations are paid handsomely by the army"Darius said with a smile on his
face.
"Yes sir. And it looks good when those High Command guys do a promotion list"
"Yeah. Better send a progress report to headquarters"

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT FROM IMPERIAL NEWS AGENCY:
The Empire of New Imperial Rome has established a facility in the Antarctic. Our facility is located in Alexander Island,
off Marguerite Bay. The facility is under joint control by Ministry of Technology and Imperial Armed Forces. The facility
is used for research purposes, both civilian and military. We announce you that this operation is not targeted against
any nation. We hope that other nations recognize our claim in this area, and announce we intend to expand our operations
in this area.

The United States Of Antarctica 123 coughs loudly then proceeds to ignore "NIR"

OOC:NIR is abbreviation of "New Imperial Rome". And IMO no one has claim for entire Antarctica so...

You are correct no ONE has it all.
But there's about 74 nations that do :P
check my region

OOC:Yea, but question is, are those recognized claims(see the claims thread)

All claims are legit, with the possible exception of people who 'pwn' the world. So therefore both of you own the same parts of Antartica. Does that make sense? No. Does it work? Yes.

OOC:WTF?He has same parts i do?LINK LINK!!!

No no no! All claims are legit! All!

You are obviously new, so I'll lend you a clue; the entire god damn planet, including antarctica, has been claimed about 30 bazollion-and-a-half times - and this number exludes 'I 0wNz t3h W0r1d!!1!' claims.

Hell, the same can be said for the entire solar system, and most nearby or well-known stars.



Botom line: RL claims are stupid, and most folks I know ignore them - the planet's too small for everyone to fit. Kanuckistan itself is 2/3rds the population of Earth itself; the planet couldn't even support the population of my alliance alone.

oooooh this is for the claims thread, forget it then ignore all those ridiculous threads anyway

Suggestion of the day

"Sir? Report from OVERSIGHT."

The General flipped through the pages. "I see. This is on one of the alternate parallels?"
"Yes, sir."
"Hmm. Doesn't seem to be doing very much. And realistically, he can't come to this parallel unless we want him here." She closed the report. "At this time, no action, but do put him on the 'Watch' list."
"Yes, sir!"
