It was a quiet day in the capital city of Kongola. There were reports of an asteroid coming towards Earth, but it was believed to miss Earth by only forty thousand miles. People felt that since it would miss Earth, there was nothing to worry about, and life carried on like normal. However, soon, rumors started to float around about something called Acigoo. Most people didn't know what it was. There were, though, some people who seemed to tense up at the mentioning of it. They knew what it was, and knew they didn’t want to arrive on Earth again. Even the government seemed to be hiding something. When asked about the rumors, they would never comment about it, and just seemingly ignored it all together. People were excited to see this asteroid, which is believed to be extremely small, about three miles wide by seven miles in length.

Three months later, news broke that Earth would have a better view of this asteroid then previously expected. Instead of it passing by only forty thousand miles from Earth’s atmosphere, it was expected to hit Earth. Where was it expected to hit? Kongola; to be more precise, the capital city, Kongtown.

Within days, Kongola was requesting foreign aid to prepare for the seemingly imminent impact. Shortly thereafter, foreign military began entering Kongola to help prepare the nation of Kongola. Most paranoid people thought that they were there to watch the impact happen and kill any survivors. Fortunately, those paranoid people were few in numbers and had little effect on the people.

But, soon, the recently appeared, however faint and small, “star” in the sky did. As the days drew by, the predicted impact date drawing nearer and nearer, panic began to set in. Hours turned into days, days blurred into weeks. This “star” was beginning to look a lot larger and brighter than any normal star.

Finally, the day had arrived. Each hour, it grew closer and closer, slowly growing in size over the capital. In the streets people began to panic and chaos ensued. Looting ran ramped across the nation. The smarter people, however, began to flee. As the final hour before impact arrived, the city appeared to be looking at two suns.

Only a half an hour until the impact, and smaller impacts of the fragments were hitting the city, causing more chaos. It was like death was raining from the heavens, only there would be no salvation. As the main body of the asteroid impacted into the center of the city, it sent out a shock wave greater than that of several nuclear explosions. Buildings were leveled and people incinerated. During those few moments of impact thousands of lives were lost. Yet, thousands of new lives began in the form of single cell creatures. It took a few days before the radiation from the rain of death to reach safe levels but when it did teams moved in to try and help the survivors. But they mostly found small creatures and a grey sludge. Even as some of the men and woman searched for survivors, more evil things were starting to lurk around in the shadows.

In an official statement made by the Dictating General Ben Hoshman, who was relocated underground in the farthest part of the nation away from Kongtown, Mr. Hoshman has begun asking for aid from the international community. He also asks that nations send scientists in to observe the impact, and gather things from the asteroid.

“We have some of our own scientists looking, and they have seemed to have found something very interesting. They have come across a goo-like substance seeping from the asteroid, and making puddles. They say it is extremely acidic, and grows rather rapidly. We would like other nations to send their own scientists and set up camp, to begin helping us determine this, and experiment with it.”

OOC: Yes, the return of Acigoo... all n00bish crap will be ignored. Open RP to those who will respect this RP as it should be. If you don't know what Acigoo is, you'll learn later ICly. But ya, please join as long as you're respect this RP (don't go around making up your own crap about this, as there is already set info on what Acigoo is. And, yes, this is Acigoo, but you don't know that ICly yet...)

ViZion is extremely suspicious of this so-called "goo" you speak of. ViZion will be sending in some of its top scientists, including those who are experts of Acigoo. We urge you to take extremely caution, as we are worried this could be more then some "cosmic goo" off of an old asteroid.

We are willing to send you aid in the form of 260 peace corps workers who will bring food, medical supplies and temporary shelters.
The Field Marshall suggests you rename Acigoo Tiberium!
-official statement

As dictated by the Jarridian Foreign Policy, we must move to contain this at once. This is not only a threat to your nation, but also a threat to the peace and security of the entire world. At this time, Jarridia is in no place to make a military move, but the WWA stands firm on its position against Acigoo, and asks for Kongola's full assistance in ridding the world, yet again, of this treacherous element.

Please, we ask of you not to use this for your own evil whims, and to not disable us from containing this horrific and most foul and deadly weapon. You must allow us along with other Anti-Acigoo nations to extract, and destroy it at once. Thank you for your time.

RE: Acigoo Extraction

We are very interested in possibly getting our hands on Acigoo. We, at this time, will not divulge our reasons behind this, but we will pay you generously. Do respond to us, because time is precious. Thank you.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Presidential Palace

Dictator Harkinson sat behind his desk, engaged in conversation with his military advisors.

"We shall win the war against our invaders, if we can get our hands on this Acigoo. I feel that this 'Kongola' will give us what we want, if we offer them a generous sum of money."

"But how will we get it in sir?" asks Keith Derfin

"Simple, we'll have it sent through Smithsilian. They owe us one. And none of our enemies can break that sovereign soil" responde Josh with a smile.

Upon hearing this Phalanix is dispatching the experts on acigoo since this goo resembles it. At this time we sujest you keep your men back and if this is acigoo then we sujest evacuating up to 25 miles from the city.

Already near Kongtown a small group of troops dressed in civillian clothing moved towards the impact site. In there coats and back packs they carried there equipment though it was very small. As they began to slip by the simple security they reached an abandoned bulding and began to change into there armor that was stored in the vials of nano-bots. Even though the armor was weak by most standards this would have to do.

Izistan, upon hearing of this event, wishes to send a team of scientists in to examine this anomalous material. Might we also send in a security team as well(Special Forces)? We can also provide our own camp structures and equipment.

OCC: I've always wanted to run into this stuff.

We would like to know what this "Acigoo" your nations are speaking of? What are your nations so worried about?

The Phoenix Milita, we thank you for your help.

Secret IC to Jarridia: We're sorry, but at this time, we do not know what this is.

Yes, that is fine.

OOC: Don't we all? lol

Erect an industrial park on the site instead and setup production facilities to bottle and market the stuff. At the same time put imediatly into planning a theme park/ national preserve and tought it as a world heratige site and tought it as a tourist attraction.

He stood still, watching the news. Today had been a bad day to be him. He was Karteri Dreznet, a scout for the Most Serene Republic of DemonLordEnigma to find out information on Earth countries for potentiall alliances. And today, the nation he was scouting was under attack.

"Well, damn. What is this 'acigoo', anyway?" Karteri asked.

"How should I know? I'm just a secretary," Leutent Sarbes said, her voice holding her disatisfaction with this mission.

"Hush. We need to get to an official of some sort. Now would be best to reveal to them who we are and where we are from," Karteri said.

We ask all nations to stay calm. We do not know if this is Acigoo or not yet. There is a chance, but we do not know for sure. We ask that nations with previous background with Acigoo help us in determining if this truly is Acigoo, or not.

Kongola, Acigoo is a very acidic goo substance from space. It hit Earth a long time ago, many, many years ago. It grew quickly, and created creatures that, within a month, were creatures such as dragon-like reptiles and cavemen-like animals, except far larger and stronger then the human cavemen.

It is extremely dangerous. We will be helping you evacuate your people from your nation.

ViZion's scientists are boarding their planes. They are expected to arrive in Kongola in four (NS) hours.

Yes, that is fine.

OOC: Don't we all? lol

Within minutes of the reply from the Kongola goverment, six Izistani Z-12 military transport plaens were lifting off from Tyhoon Bay AFB. On these six were some of the mst advanced field scienctific equipment developed by Izistan.

Plane One: Sixty members of the science team, and sixty-five members of the Izistani Special Forces. And weapons for the ISF's.

Plane Two: Equipment for the science team.

Plane Three: Inflatable Quonset hut type buildings.
-One facility for sleeping quarters.
- One command and control center with a medical section.
-One garage.

Plane Four: Two TK9 Kestral transport helicopters.

Plane Five: The mobile lab( a vehicle the size and appearance of a armored Greyhound bus. It is equipped with advanced NBC systems and scienctific equipment.

Plane Six: Medical and Personal equipment.

May we set up our base some 16 kilometers(ten miles) from the effected area?

OOC: The Z-12 is basiclly a improved Izistani produced veriosn of the Il-76 Candid. And my motives are purely science based(and I want to get a few more RP's under my belt).

The plane carrying ViZionarians scientists and their supplies was entering Kongolian airspace. "My God, look at that!" said Buck Wagner, the newest (and youngest) of this scientist crew. "What?" asked Marcus Triaz, one of the lead scientists. "Over there, see that?" Buck said, pointing to the horizon. There was a growing red, almost flaming-like effect where the capital city was. "Damn. God help us all if this is Acigoo. It was a lot larger than the comet that brought it here before. If that is Acigoo... it's going to be a lot worse." said Bill Gaines, an Acigoo expert, as he gazed through the window at that sight.

Official Ministry Statement

The Grenvali government knows little to nothing about Acigoo. However, ten scientists have voluntarially decided to go to Kongola. These brave men and women will aid in the research of this dread substance. However, at this time, Grenval has shut its borders to all citizens of Kongola. All Grenvali citizens returning from abroad are being restricted to enter the country. The citizens are throughly inspected and analyzed, and only afterwards, are allowed to enter the country. The citizens are placed in the Rufushian North Hotel. The hotel has been bought out by the Grenvali government. In short, the scientists will be arriving within the week. May God have mercy on us all.

OOC: I'll jsuts skip a few NS hours ahead.

The Z-12's set down at the nearest airfield to their objective. While the equipment was being unloaded some of the team members began to negotiate with a goverment offcial for use of some cargo trucks. After asking nicely they managed to procure the vehicles. The Kestrals took off and headed off to scout the base site.

A hour later.

The trucks had arrived and the equipment was being offloaded. The quonsets were inflating nicely and the science team ran to and fro. The Special Forces began to set up a perimeter. The Mobile Lab was checked out and found to be in excellent condition. A satellite link was set up with both the Izistani Goverment and the Kongolain Goverment.

A Kestral carrying a small group of team members took off and headed out to examine the city and the strange substance infesting it.

The small squad was already using there instraments to study the substance. "Shit... it's acigoo." "If it is that means that Phalanix will be all over this. Prepare to expect there scientist. And also prepare to deal with hostile creatures."

In Phalanix a C-26 space transport was taking off with the group of ten scientists, 35 troops (varying form ASU [5] RS [10] and Elites [20]). But they also carried an extra guest. Phoenix Maxwell was with the group. Being a vetran of the first and second acigoo wars would prove useful. Atleast this time they were prepared.

OCC:The C-26 has a single MBR-08 MASAMUNE (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=6565911&postcount=4) for extra suport

The scientists looked down out of the windows of the helicopter upon what was once Kongtown. Steel girders poked out of the wreckage of what was once buildings, few stuctures had surrived the impact. As they approached Ground Zero one could make out some sort of grey sludge on the surface. They circled the area and deployed robotic surface probes from the air. They then doubled back to the edge of the goo and prepared to land in a small clear area not 100 meters from the edge of the alien material. The team members who had voluteered to get the first look at the situation stepped forth from the machine in white hazmat suits. They looked like astronaughts on the surface of the moon .

A scientist, using a long pipe like tool with what looked with a scoop on the end managed to get a sample of the material. he prompty placed it (without touching it) into a specimin box with biohazard warnings on the side. This was placed on board the helicopter.

The soldiers peered through their facemasks and fingered their weapons nervously. One, while foolig around with his thermograph, picked up moment. Six M-118 Assault Rifles snapped up, the Special Forces formed into a circle around the scienctists and began to retreat to the helicopter.

They made it withour incident and they took off for base camp as fast as they could. The Mobile Lab would be sent in next, with a large security force too.

ViZion's plane, carrying the scientists and their equipment, finally landed. As they were offloading, they got word Phalanix was on it's way. "Well, good. There's someone else who knows what the hell we're dealing with. Let's wait up for them here." said Bill Gaines. "That sounds like a good idea to me." said Jackson Timlin, another Acigoo expert who delt with Acigoo the first time around.

"We should just move on. We'll meet up with them at the research area." said Buck Wagner. "I think we should get started on this ASAP."
"Yes, I guess we should. Let's head on." said Bill Gaines.

Within 15 minutes, they were ready, and on their way to the impact area to set up camp. They knew this was extremely dangerous, and they were ready to get the word out right away upon determining what it is. They had their whole drill set up if it turns out to be Acigoo.

I bet it kind of looks like this: http://www.konsolen-world.de/Screenshots/Bilder_PS2/Ace_Combat_04_Shattered_Skies/5.jpg

"This is bad. Really, really bad. I mean, look at this city... err, whatever you want to call it now... it's levelled... all rubble now!" remarked George Hastings, while they drove through the outskirts of this once-booming city. "God help us if this is Acigoo... this would be a dream breeding ground for that shit!"
"Yes, I know." said Bill Gaines, with worry in his voice. "We need to get to work right away once we get set up. Let's find our self a spot to set up camp, and a site to begin our work."

As they continued on, they passed by an old concrete building, which still was partially still standing. "Look, let's set up camp there. It looks like that'll be about the best we'll find." said Joseph Callinbrand. "We best set up camp there, then scout out our work area."

After 45 minutes of work, their camp was set up, and they began their quest for their second area.

The Democratic Proletariat Union of Aztec National League offers it's assistance to the nation of Kongola. We shall send 250 workers and 25 security officers to help assist in humanitarian campaigns. They shall be transported by 5 ANL AZ-Tu 95cs. We hope we shall be able to alive the situation developing in Kongola.

-Dr. Darius Wellington, Foriegn Affairs Minister

Secret IC:

Jorge Arroyo's decision to assist Kongola was the last decision by the Interm Executive Council. He sat at his desk with the Intellegence Minister. They would be discussing the situation in Kongola.

Minister Teótepulan was a relativly unknown figure. He was in charge of intellegence, but was very secretive. He was, by far, uknown to the rest of the world.

"Now, I do believe we must help Kongola, but we need to also see what this asteriod has brought. We missed out on the first opportunity to observe a similar situation a long back ago, but this is our moment. I have 6 agents and one military officer that can get more information for us."

Jorge Arroyo said "Indeed, I'll approve of this covert situation."

With that, the teams were assymbled.

Don't even try it.

Do not.

Stop.

Cease and Desist.

I will not hesitate to kick your ass and annihilate your nation, should you continue this. And trust me, your children will feel my wrath.

(This Acigoo shit is starting to piss me off.)
(This is an OOC warning to Kongola not to get involved in this kind of stuff.)

OOC: lol, nicely put... which nation in particular would you be talking to? And would you mind sending in scientists to help us figure out ICly that this is Acigoo? Thx :D

Nearing the point of impact, the scientists were required to get out of their vehicles. They had to put gas masks on, along with protective suites, as they knew this was extremely dangerous. But, they knew they had to do this.

They cautiously walked, staying together. As they neared the impact area, they could see a goo, slowly seeming to spread. It was growing!
"Damn it, if I didn't know any better, I'd be willing to bet my life on this being Acigoo. It looks like acigoo, and acts like it. Look! It's even eatting away at the metal and all this other crap... even the cement. Damn. We'll need to set up up there." said Bill Gaines, pointing up on a slightly elevated area.

They made their way over there, and within 10 minutes, they were starting to set up.

OOC: F*ck it. I'm just going to bombard the shit out of this bastard and get this over with.

Involved Nations:

The asteroid that has recently struck Kongola has not been thoroughly examined by Hammerian scientists to deem it Acigoo material. However, due to the commonality of these meteor strikes, both now and in the past, we must deem Kongola as a Class-One Biohazard site. The spread of Acigoo cannot be stopped, and so to prevent this spread, Kongola must be swept from the Earth.

One lesson learned from Egypstan is that Acigoo does indeed infest lifeforms, creating superbeings that only aid in the spread of this destructive plasmatic anti-matter-like substance. 480,000 Hammerian scientists and military personnel have been dispatched, and will arrive shortly. As long as these personnel are inside Kongola's borders, Kongola is no longer a country, but a Hammerian research site. Kongola will be under the control of Foe Hammer during this time.

The Acigoo will loaded into specialized, and classified, containers with an outter shell of tungsten steel. Inside, the Acigoo material will be contained in a magnetic field to prevent absorbtion of the metal container.

We regret to inform the Kongolan citizens that even after the Acigoo has been cleaned up, contained and destroyed, the Kongolan landscape is still a Class-one Biohazard. The only approved form of decontamination is destructive, and will result in the entirety of Kongola being bombarded by Hammerian fleets.

This is for the safety of the Hammerians, the safety of you, and the safety of the world.

We gladly invite the Kongolan citizens to emmigrate to the Hammerian Earth Territories after annihilation of Kongola.

::END::

Four seconds after transmission termination, four Nordlund Defense Initiative Fleets of the Hammerian armada decelerate from hyperfold space.

A single phrase is transmitted to all involved parties. "For your safety."

OOC: I was actually hoping this would pan out into a good RP... :-/ Seemed to be goin good...

The sun was just starting to peak above the horizon by the time they were set up. It had been a long 36 hours, but they knew they would be up for at least another 24 hours before they would get any sleep.

It was time for them to start collecting samples so they could start running tests. As they walked down, they noticed that the goo has expanded nearly 20 feet from where it had been when they were heading up the little hill. They had to work fast. They began collecting samples, and within five minutes, they had collected enough to run multiple tests. They would know within a few (NS) hours what it was (tomorrow morning). They could only pray to God that is was not Acigoo.

OOC: See ya guys tomorrow...

(ooc: Foe Hammer, not to interject or anything, but don't you think that you're being a little immature? It's his RP. If you don't like it, you can ignore it. Let them have their RP, though. They got off to an okay start. Stepping on it for personal reasons is poor roleplaying etiquette.)

"Not again....not again...ohhh gods not again...." Muttered Chairman Charles Foster Yang as he heard the news. The TV cameras lit up the scene of his office has he turned to address the nation, and other free nations of the world.

----Sattelite Broadcast---

"The Dominion of Talkos, knowing the full dangers of the acigoo threat as few others do, has shifted our military to high alert. We now call all nations to give their all, and help us as we will begin to enforce a blockade of the infested nation. We propose that with sufficient force, nothing will be allowed to leave once it has entered until we are sure that the Acigoo threat is contained or destroyed. Again.

We call upon all nations to join with us in preventing ANOTHER Acigoo disaster, once we have sufficient support we will begin our blockade, every day that goes by is another day that a sample of the material could be smuggled out, or escape from containment."



--------
OOC: I'm off now, but I'll be back with more details later.

The C-26 began landing outside the city in short time. Quickly the scientist and the security troops ran out fallowed closely by the rather large MBR-08 that was being pulled out on it's back. Once it was set upright a single pilot climbed in it to prepare to see if it was operational while the rest of the team began to look for a base of operations or a sutable location.

"F*CK! F*CUK NOW!" screamed Jackson Timlin in horror.
"What?! What?!" asks Bill Gaines, almost screaming from being startled.
"You know God what what I'm yelling about!" Timlim snapped back. "It's fucking Acigoo! We gotta alert other nations!"
"Shiiiiiiit."

Acigoo has returned.

"Sir, we're intercepting communications left and right. It's something called "acigoo" and apparently is loose. They seem to be worried. How shall we respond?" Sarbes asked.

"You're unusually respectful. Time to contact them. Maybe our experiences will help," Karteri said.

With that, Karteri picked up a phone to call the Kongola authorities. Two hours later he was able to get through, having had to convince six people he really was a military expert from DLE instead of just a tourist on vacation, despite both being true. Then, having finally gotten in contact with someone in charge, he decided to make his offer.

"I understand you have something called "acigoo" on your hands. Perhaps my expertise with something that may be related will help. In any case, we can also help take up any slack in other areas if my knowledge proves useless. As it is, we cannot leave your nation until this is done anyway. My own views this as a quarantine situation and breaking quarantine is punishable by death, usually through explosives. If you are agreeable to us helping, send a transport to pick up myself and my friend," Karteri said.

"You think it may be related to a certain pest?" Sabes asked.

"Maybe. It almost sounds like something we have a problem with," Karteri said.

OOC: I'm ignoring the guy threatening orbital bombardment. That is just a cheap attempt to stop something, unjustified in this case, just because of his personal feelings.

OOC:Ignoring the future tech guy.

IC:It was a simple mission. Go in there and collect a sample of Acigoo for research purposes. And it had succeeded. The other nations hadnt secured the entire area so getting in, collecting the sample, and then getting out was easy. No fleets had arrived to blockade the coastline. Thus everybody got out alive... and 6 viles of acigoo were now on a destroyer heading back to Red Tide.

OOC: Which one? I'm also future tech, but so much of my tech is still at modern level that my people shouldn't have any problem fitting in. My assault rifles are even probably not too far advanced to be produced today, maybe a max of five years of technological advancement.

Now, how am I going to keep my ships out of it? They're busy at the moment.

We have decided to take advantage of the chaos caused by the asteroid crash and support a rebel leader living in the jungle. He will have enough guns and various cliche's to hopefully topple the government. Long live our new puppet state.

OCC: I'm future tech as well. And the last two acigoo wars that most of you probably don't remember had future tech mixing with modern tech.
IC:
The small group of troops set up a small base next to the ViZion group. Phoenix swore under his breath as he opened up his case and began to remove the AE armor he hadn't worn for almost ten years now. As he placed the parts on and the gel fit layer formed to his body he reached into the case to pull out a modified XR-37 assault rifle and sealed his helmet on. A RS walked up behind him her C-44 rifle slung over her shoulder and a G7 Pistol at her side. "Sir we've seen several nations remove acigoo form the containment zone. I sujest we send out afew Ghosts after them to make sure they don't end up like Egyptstan." "Yes do that. I'll be at the ViZion camp. And have the MBR ready for anything." "Yes sir." Phoenix then began to wlak out to the ViZion camp. Since he was a vetran of both wars and had the msot knowlage of acigoo in his nation he was one of the best assest to have at this time.

OOC: http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=371053 Acigoo alert thread

[In the capital city of Janathoras, in the Sovereign's office]

"And you have no idea what this 'acigoo' is, do you?" asked Sovereign Hanno, frowning at his intelligence officer, who was cowering before the steely eyes.

"No, sire," the intelligence officer mumbled apologetically. "We have captured broadcasts warning everyone off of going anywhere near the stuff, as well as reporting that it is extremely acidic, eating through everything."

"Everything?" The Sovereign lifted a suspicious eyebrow.

"Y-yes, sire, that is what the broadcasts said."

"Then why hasn't it carved its way into the depths of Earth already?"

"I-I do not know, sire," the intelligence officer mumbled, fearing for his life now. The Sovereign wasn't known for being benign.

"Well, isn't it your job to find out?" Sovereign Hanno asked in a dangerously soft voice. Before the other could reply, he waved his hand dismissively. "Go. A jet will be reserved aside for you as transport. You will fly to Kongola and find out what you can."

Shivering with fear, the intelligence officer fled the Sovereign's office.

OOC: (Never before heard of Acigoo, but it sounds interesting. *g*)

[OOC]: I should probably just point this out in this thread as well, since I posted it in the Acigoo Alert Thread also.

5 High-Altitude Bombers are going to drop a mixture of extremely low-yield 'dirty' bombs (REALLY low-yield) and napalm filled cluster bombs into the heart of the Kongola's capital city. This will basically help simulate a nuclear blast, but without the gigantic blast radius.

Basically, my nation doesn't exactly believe all this fuss about Acigoo being aided by nuclear attacks, so we're gonna just turn up the heat around the asteroid.

The blast will be centered on the asteroid itself, and wont do much more than set the asteroid and about half a mile around it on fire, as well as drown it in a wash of radiation.

Oh, and the reason for all this fuss? Simple, I thought we might as well get the 'Acigoo' into high gear.

(ooc: Foe Hammer, not to interject or anything, but don't you think that you're being a little immature? It's his RP. If you don't like it, you can ignore it. Let them have their RP, though. They got off to an okay start. Stepping on it for personal reasons is poor roleplaying etiquette.)

OOC: I was asked to join. I don't venture into the II forums unless I'm asked to.

[ooc]

Why do you feel the need to destroy the capitol city? I don't care if you are sending in low-yield, napalm, or fortune cookies...but why? Does he have people there? Excuse me for not following page-by-page.

OOC: I'm not removing any of the Acigoo. It is being analyzed on site.

The scientists were rushing around the labratory room, each trying to get a glimpse of the material currently under the microscope.
"Higgans, could grab that reference CD please?"

"I've never seen anything like this before..."

This was the sence that one would encounter upon entering the room. Adding fuel to the fire was the fact that the Mobile Lab had observed what appeared to be lifeforms in the ruins of Kongtown, but the ML had picked up the lifeforms on a remote camera and it was not till it had returned to the base that these "things" had been detected.

Other nations were now active in the area and the security troops were now very cautious.

OOC2: Can Acigoo infest other lifeforms?

OOC: Actually, the Acigoo IS getting into the ground.. if given the chance, it would make the entire planet Acigoo... for now, it's working on creating a lake of Acigoo from the city...
the only way Acigoo can infest other life is by injecting in into their blood stream... any other form of contact, and it'll eat the thing right up...
Acigoo is dangerous stuff... when it first came, it seemed to just be acidic goo, but shortly after, noticed single-celled creatures being formed.

(yes, similar, but not exactly like Evolution, the movie...)

OOC: Actually, the Acigoo IS getting into the ground.. if given the chance, it would make the entire planet Acigoo... for now, it's working on creating a lake of Acigoo from the city...
the only way Acigoo can infest other life is by injecting in into their blood stream... any other form of contact, and it'll eat the thing right up...
Acigoo is dangerous stuff... when it first came, it seemed to just be acidic goo, but shortly after, noticed single-celled creatures being formed.

OOC: np... ya, I agree... it was when it first arrived, so hopefully it will again... since older nations know what it does and generally hate the crap, and younger nations are generally interested in the stuff... caused alotta wars last time, too, because of the fact that some were stealing it...

OOC: I'm guessing my two people have to make their own entrance. I'll be working on a way for them to get in contact with the others...

OOC: Alright.
If you do not know much about Acigoo, please go here now: http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=7407309#post7407309

We are projecting that the entire city of Kongola and some suburbs will be entirely gone, replaced by a rapidly growing Acigoo lake. It has also begun to terraform the landscape with trees and bushes not seeing on Earth until now.

It's begun - Acigoo life has arrived.

[OOC]: I should probably just point this out in this thread as well, since I posted it in the Acigoo Alert Thread also.

5 High-Altitude Bombers are going to drop a mixture of extremely low-yield 'dirty' bombs (REALLY low-yield) and napalm filled cluster bombs into the heart of the Kongola's capital city. This will basically help simulate a nuclear blast, but without the gigantic blast radius.

Basically, my nation doesn't exactly believe all this fuss about Acigoo being aided by nuclear attacks, so we're gonna just turn up the heat around the asteroid.

The blast will be centered on the asteroid itself, and wont do much more than set the asteroid and about half a mile around it on fire, as well as drown it in a wash of radiation.

Oh, and the reason for all this fuss? Simple, I thought we might as well get the 'Acigoo' into high gear.
ViZion demands that your nation cease this action immediately.

"Not again....not again...ohhh gods not again...." Muttered Chairman Charles Foster Yang as he heard the news. The TV cameras lit up the scene of his office has he turned to address the nation, and other free nations of the world.

----Sattelite Broadcast---

"The Dominion of Talkos, knowing the full dangers of the acigoo threat as few others do, has shifted our military to high alert. We now call all nations to give their all, and help us as we will begin to enforce a blockade of the infested nation. We propose that with sufficient force, nothing will be allowed to leave once it has entered until we are sure that the Acigoo threat is contained or destroyed. Again.

We call upon all nations to join with us in preventing ANOTHER Acigoo disaster, once we have sufficient support we will begin our blockade, every day that goes by is another day that a sample of the material could be smuggled out, or escape from containment."



--------
OOC: I'm off now, but I'll be back with more details later.
ViZion will aid you in this blockade.

Any ships that are not cleared before will be turned around. If you do not turn around, we will be forced to destroy your ship(s).

"Not responding..." Kateri said.

"Try the ViZions. We've dealt with them before and they are probably here," Sarbes said.

Sighing, Karteri tried to phone the ViZions, hoping to get through. He really wanted to get in on this. After all, they may have important information about it...

With the latest series of messages from ViZion it was decided to move the base further away from the Acigoo threat. The long convoy of trucks began to move acroos the landscape towards the zone where ViZion and a few others had established their areas of operations.

The Kestrals were over the city filming the rapidly changing landscape. Already a small lake could be seen in the crater and shadowly forms under the surface appeared to be moving.

The Izistani Goverment decided to send in more of the Special Forces, six hundred highly trained and well armed Special Forces to be exact. Along with ten more Kestrals, six Nightingale attack helicopters and a small observation semi-rigid airship. Hopefully we can contain this hazard...

"Not responding..." Kateri said.

"Try the ViZions. We've dealt with them before and they are probably here," Sarbes said.

Sighing, Karteri tried to phone the ViZions, hoping to get through. He really wanted to get in on this. After all, they may have important information about it...
"Sir, DemonLordEnigma is on the phone..."
"Send them through." said General Hatching.

"This "acigoo" you speak of is similar to something we have encountered. I'm thinking our knowledge may be of some help, as we were able to destroy it. In any case, having ten extra soldiers with the expertise to run a small army effectively and a willingness to fight to the death should be helpful," Karteri said.

"You think they'll be surprised there's only two of us?" Sarbes asked.

"Of course," he replied.

On Rath the new scrying crystals hummed a low, bellike tone. Most people considered in soothing, until they started working around them. There had been two breakdowns and six deaths resulting from the sound, now earplugs were required.
Charnel walked his current puppet down the catwalk above the scrying stations, relishing the sensation of having nerves, feeling preassure from his feet traveling up his legs. He had been about four thosand when he had learned to walk...yes, about four thosand. After the first millenia things just started running together. Some things were clear though. For instance he remembered absorbing other Keepers very well.
Too bad there were so few left.
"Milord! Milord Charnel, number 3 reports something...odd. Its a sort of lake of...well, goo, milord. It looks like its moving by itself. We think you should see." A sweating mage scurried behind Charnel. Most mages smoked, and this generaly accounted for their chronicaly poor health, although they tended to live for quite some time.
Very well, show me.
Vocal chords were one aspect of bodies that Charnel had never bothered to master, although it did disturb his minions when voices adressed them from nowhere. Some claimed to have gotten orders from voices that were not Charnel, generaly along the lines of 'Dance naked on top of a flagpole', these days Charnel made an effort to at least move his mouth when he 'spoke' to his people.
Interesting. Where is it?
"We think its Earth, milord. The stuff seems to create static, even on the CB's, its kinda wierd. It may just be the distance, but these new crystals should be able to cover half the galaxy easy" The mage tapped the ball.
"Dispatch a mission, and contact the govornment of wherever that is, I want a team in there to observe."

Transmission to Kongola
The United Kingdoms of Harmonia ask permission to dispatch a thaumaturgical team to study and observe this event. Permission to planeshift into your nation and land would be apperciated.
Thank you.

In the hangers of Rath three of the newest of the Harmonian ships floated above the stone floor. These were much sleeker than the former sailing ships, these were REAL skyships, streamlined, quick and capable of easy flight in an atmosphere. They disdained normal cannons for a full assortment of Thaum weapons, capable of melting nearly anything.
On board were a number of Thaumaturgists, mages, and soldiers.
The ships rumbled as they powered their crystal energy cores, then moved at a stately pace through the hanger doors, out into the starless night of Rath. Once free of the atmosphere they began to accelerate, gaining speed until the mages activated the planeshift.
With a flash they vanished from the sky, reapering above Earth...

OOC:
Hiya, as you may (or not) have guessed, I'm a Fantasci nation. I use some technology and some magic, if you dont like this, Im sure we can work something out. Most of my stuff is pretty well balanced, and if you need details on anything, please ask.
Also, I think it might be kind of neat to add something to the Acigoo inventory of Things Which Do Not Work, since it has so many :P

A new, small country, considered unimportant by many, catches wind of this "Acigoo" incident. To the Kongolan leader a single, simple message is sent:

We, the Empire of The Royal Art, wish to aid you in this plight. We offer to you three Circles of Alchemists - roughly 45 individuals - to help study and perhaps help prevent any further catastrophe. Our Alchemists, while... "unconventional" in a scientific stand point, are some of the most educated members of our country - and we value education above all. Their unique alchemical skill may be of use. We await your respone.

We'd like to accept all help. Thank you.

OOC: Can ppl just stop bickering over stuff and just RP? Things will get figured out over time, k? After all, this is my RP, and my nation and ppl do need help, while everyone is fighting over what freezing it does, or if it even works.

OOC:
Ummm...so can I join? IN the other thread you said no magic, does this apply to large-scale use, IE: Spells and such, or to everything I use? IE: Ships, weapons, that sort of thing?

Minister Teótepulan read over the reports and the alert of the precence of Acigoo. This was clearly a major distaster, but also a chance to explore something new. Of course, taking any of the Acigoo would be national suicide, and is by far too dangerous. The AIA agents would have to get all the information from the scene.

Minister Teótepulan looked at the 6 agents assymbled before him. They were a mixed bunch, but all more then qualified individuals. He said to them:

"We are dealing with a threat of great extent. You must take greatest precaution and must not let any of it get to you. Also, you can not take any for more AIA research, that's an order. Your goal is to simply study it's structure and it's properties, that's it."

They all agreed, and they were off to the airplanes. Within 2 hours, they would be underway to Kongola.

With the response given, the three Circles enter the country through - well, no one's quite sure how they got in. They set up camp some ways away from the other researchers, then send a representative to each of the set up factions. As if following a script, each asks a member of the research team:

"What is it that is known about this substance? And what would you wish us to do in order to help?"

As more Phalanix forces were ariving after the fact that it was acigoo they were delaing with they began to set up a makeshift airport for ariving planes and other forsm of travel.

OCC:Ok so the Phalanix forces now ahve about 200 Elites 30 VBR-3 Shadow Strikers and 4 MAc-II G destroids on the ground

Buck Wagner, the least experienced of the scientists of ViZion, walked around the rubble, looking around, and observing. So many new plants, new life here now... he thought, referring to the terraforming that was happening.

He walked up to one of the trees. He began to touch it, then move his hand across the bark, to feel the surface. "Hmm, strange... it seems to prick you..." he said, thinking out loud. He then looked up, only to see a large coconut-like object fall out of the tree.

"SHIII..." Silence.

A small group of still loyal AE walked through the impact zone. "Why do we get the shit jobs?" "Casue.. hey there is somehtign over there," one of them said as she shouldered her XR-34 13mm multi rifle and began to move towards a human form slowly. The squad fallowed clicking there safties off on there rifles as they walked.

As the group walked up to the from one fo the AE gagged as he looked it over. The thing looked almost human with the exception it was srivveled up and half a normal mans size. As one of the AE went to poke it it suddenly began to ozze out a greenish grey puss from where it's eyes would be. "Oh god...," one fo them said before her face plate came up and she vomited.

OCC: the XR-34 has a system so that it has a grenade launcher and can have a secondary attachment for a 9mm burst system.

The three sleek Harmonian ships glided down from the sky, extending their landing spines and crunching down on top of a small stand of trees.
Ramps and ladders were hurled over the sides and figures climbed/slid down, most were short and green with quite large ears and noses.
Once they were off the ships took off again, circling around the lake of goo.

The figures on the ground quickly began to assemble a small tent-city, pavillions for the mages sprung up quite quickly, while Goblins attempted to assemble their puptents, most settled for using the canvas as a blanket, or eating it.
A group had gathered a distance from the acigoo, they were hurling stones at it and watching them slowly dissolve inside the goop. One of them sidled closer and poked it with his scimatar...
A muffled scream resounded through the camp, cut off quickly. The other Goblins eyes grew wider than their normal three inches as they stared at the remains, a pair of boots which were even now being engulfed in the strange sludge.
They ran away.

"Have you seen Buck around?" asked Leo Plates, "He's been gone for a while..."
"He better not have left to explore... I told him he had to stay here!" Bill Gaines said.
"I haven't seen him... for, I donno... seven or eight hours. This isn't good..." said Leo.

A single Alchemist walks to the quarantine zone and starts setting up his equipment - a cauldren, a Bunsen burner, various types of incense, a bundle of various herbs, a few star charts, a telescope, a stack of wierd-looking books, and a intricately decorated dagger. The man traces a circle into the ground, covering it in various glyphs and muttering in Latin. After about half an hour, he sits inside of the circle and says a syllable in some tongue most people couldn't hope to recognize. Then he proceeds to take out the various herbs and ingredients, turn on the Bunsen burner, and get to work. He could only help the Circle of Warding would hold against whatever this... thing was.

One of the more unlucky AE had drawn the short straw and had to use his grappling equipment to dragg the thing back to have it identified. As he walked it continued to produce more puss this time it began to dripp out form it's ears aswell as it's mouth, nose and eye sockets. "Dear god how could this stuff do that?" As they walked clsoer to the camp it began to stink like rotting corpses.

Back at the camp mages had begun to hand out assignments to various Goblins, carrying messages to the other camps and research stations.
Soon Goblin forms were scurrying about, searching out the differnt camps and insignia they had been told to find.
The messages they carried ran along the lines of:

"Greetings from Harmonina Mortus to [your nation].
We seek audience with your nations representatives, or your commanders. If possible we feel it would be wise to organize a meeting to determine exactly what this stuff is, how to stop it, or at least contain it, and how to best coordinate our efforts.

"My God, what the hell is that smell?!" asks Sandy Welson, nearly yelling. "It smells like... flesh... from a dead corpse. But how?"
"That's how..." said Bill Gaines, looking out of their tent, pointing.
"What the..." started Sandy, when the Phalanix AE's looked at them as they drew close to the camp.
"Whatchya got there, guys?" askes Bill. "Please don't tell me the Acigoo creatures are popping up now..."

"If they were popping up you'd hear them running form this this we found," the lead AE said as she stopped and pointed to the shrivlled corpse thing. "Might not want to look at it casue it is jsut disgusting."

"Oh God no... that's... f*ck... that's Buck! Damnit!" yelled Bill Gaines. "Do you know what happened to him?"

Aimless sat in his chair in the Holy Tower of Zackaroth. He covers his eyes with his hand. He shakes his head and looks out the window. His country was becoming a free nation but now that... goo was making unrest upon the population. Protests have broken out for him to do something. He sighed and walked out to the balconey. thousands off people are waiting for Aimless's descion.

" Friends. we face a great threat. no longer is it the grip of evil dictators but a thing spawned from hell. It threatens the whole world and us. This time our isolation cannot protect us. if we do not fight it will engulf us. This is why i am asking the other nations involved with this to please allow me to help. Our sienctist working together can figiure out how to beat the thing. I have no doubt our powers combine are able enough to kill it. i am iwilling to lend full support in any way possible. All i ask for is small piece of land near the thing so we can being studying it. Thank you and may God protect us in this hour of doom." Aimless walks back into his room and perpares for his departure.

"Hello? Can anybody hear us? Were afraid Crystal Ball transmitters dont work well with other devices.
Anyway, the nation of ViZion has offered to host the meeting in their camp. Harmonia has dispatched its delegates and we hope that others will follow."

Charnel himself elected to visit the location, he had to make a new puppet though, they didnt hold up to well in unshielded planeshifts.
So, the Keeper, two senior mages, two Thaumaturgists, and two Goblin guards arrived at the ViZion camp (OOC: Assuming its a camp of some kind, not an established base or anything?) and hailed the guards.

We represent the United Kingdoms of Harmonia Mortus. We are here to meet with the leadership of your camp, and the others around here. Now, if you would be so kind as to let us in? Charnels ghostly voice radiated out around him, drawing some attention.

OOC:
Charnels 'natural' form is basicaly a large cloud of magical energy, he can use his rather powerful magical ability to form a body when it suites him (haha). While his body is vulnerable a Keeper is fairly hard to kill. If he dies inside a body is painful and drains his magic a bit, but he will survive.

Richard ran as hard as he could back to the camp, Shit... shit shit shit! This is bad... it's happening... IT'S HAPPENING!! he was thinking. He was, of course, referring to the fact that single-celled life formed were forming now.

He burst through the back of the tent, "Guys! We've go... WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!" he said.
"It's Buck we think..." said Sandy.
"Oh, shit... what happened?" he asked
"We donno... but you look worried, and not just from that body..." said Gaines.
"Ya... umm... it's happening." he said, extremely worried.
"No... life? Damn it..." Gaines said, "Time to notify everyone..."

Within an hour, a notice was sent out to all the camps in the area, and back all nations, notifying everyone that single-celled life forms were now begining to form from the Acigoo.

*Somewhere, on the far side of the world, in a beligured country currently having the worst weather in existance....*

Mr. President, there is a situation brewing.....

What? *President Richardson picks up the palm pilot with the breifing on it.* What in the name of heck is this crap? If this report is correct, this stuff is big trouble. Dispatch the 3 and 4th mechanized assault divisions. Change the weapons out to laser based gear, and see about hooking up one of the anti-matter projectors and generators we've been concoting. *The aide runs off, to follow the president's orders.* And may god have mercy on Hyperlight's armies......

"Ahh, yes, please come in. The tent over there," he said, pointing to a large tent about 40 ft ahead and to the right a little, "is where you will find our scientists. They know much about Acigoo, and they say this whole city will be gone by tomorrow."

Another notice has been sent out to all camps in the area, addressing an urgent issue. You are urged to move your camp out of Kongtown tonight, as the city is expected to be a lake of Acigoo by tomorrow.

"Single-what lifeforms?"
"Dunno, all'e said wassat dere were dese 'tings called 'singl' cell liferforms' 'r sometin' like dat. I dunno, sounds like gibberish ta me."
"Cells...cells, I remember something about them, something about how they make up our bodi-...WHAT IN THE NINE SPHERES!?"
A sort of roundish glob had oozed into the camp, where it was happily devouring a pile of armour.
"I think that might be a single celled lifeform."
"Well bugger that, thats a weeks pay its eating!"
"Blast it!"
The two mages attacked at the same time, creating an explosion that was slightly more powerful than they intended.
Acigoo flew over the entire area, tiny specks eating into everything they hit.
A while later four or five mages managed to control it by opening small portals into space under the things, by the end they were all exhausted.
"If thats what it takes to kill off one of those things, what are we going to do about that bloody lake?"

A representative from The Royal Art makes its way to the designated meeting place. Yes, it - it almost didn't look human. One would have to call it a hermaphrodite for lack of better terms, but it didn't quite fit. First off, it was stunningly beautiful, and the fact that it had both male and female features didn't offset this. Second, it seemed as if it was... well, perfect. A perfect fusing of male and female. It was obvious that it hadn't been born, but created... possibly from two people. It regards the scientists present quietly.

"Hello. We at the ViZionarian camp have found some disturbing news. Acigoo has begun to breed its single-cell life forms. We now know that Acigoo has fully begun to take on its own life. It has begun to terraform the landscape surrounding the Acigoo, and its breeding life now. We need to prepare for a long battle soon with these new life forms. We ask that your nation bring in military, along with help enforce a blockade of any illegal enterances into this nation.

Thank you,

A few hours later 5 cargo planes take off. They include medical supplies, army supplies,food, and army men. They all talk nervously about the siuation. On plane one Aimless sends a transmisson to Vizon's base that is set up.

" hello?? Can you hear me?? Aha well. Hello i am Aimless. Leader of the natin zackaroth. I was wondering is there any unaffected land by you?? I would like to set up a base near someone who knows what he is doing and has had experaniace with this thing before".

So saying, it holds out a vial of some sort of liquid to ViZion's representative, waiting for them to accept it and thus their offer.

"We are moving camp, as we're in the city at the moment. We're hosting a meeting with some other nations, and will be moving shortly afterwords.

yessir!
send out the whole fleet then! same orders, but ANY plane or ship leaving without our clearance is to be treated as hostile, and DISABLED, not sunk, to prevent it leaking into the ocean, and is to be boarded and quarantened.
yessir.
oh, and contact any magically awakened nations, we'll need there assistance. i'd like their help in boarding the ships and securing them, and their expertise.
yessir, right away sir.
OOC: are there any magically awakened nations that would like to help me?

Karteri and Sarbes walked into the camp, pausing for a moment at the sight of the Harmonians. They both reach for their belts, forgetting for a moment they were unarmed. Growling, they look at the Harmonians with suspicion.

"What are representatives from Merlyns doing here?" Karteri asked, his voice full of obvious hate.

But Sarbes was not so sure. For one thing, these people looked different from those that frequented Merlyns. For one thing, they weren't carrying any weapons she recognized. Then she remembered the ship that disappeared sometime back while scouting and began to wonder something.

"Have you seen one of our ships? We lost a scout ship sometime back in a weird energy surge and haven't seen it since," Sarbes said.

Karteri paused for a moment, shocked at her question. Then he saw it too: These people were not from Merlyns. But they were differently from a culture with some of the same influences.

"Uh, excuse our reactions. One of our enemies happens to have people that look like you. Natural conclusion," Kateri said.

OOC: I'm assuming, due to lack of response to my posts, that ViZion accepts the vial and that's that. In which case my country's representative will just wait around 'til the meeting starts.

The nation of Tylinoa will help anyway it can with this Acigoo, although we know very little on how to stop this Acigoo we will help in militaristic actions if needed.



Tyler Turner,
President of Tylinoa
The Federation of Tylinoa
We would request aid in building a blockade of this nation.

The ANL fleet of AZ-Tu 95c made its way closer to Kongola. Clearly, the scientists began buzzing about the task that awaits them. Several of the best minds from the Union in chemistry and biology were more then eager to see this "Acigoo" stuff. Screw synthisizing plutonium, that was child's play compared to this. Even using proton acceleraters to create the virtually man made Ununoctium was nothing compared to this. These minds were now working on undiscovered things from the heavens.

One man did not share the enthusiasim of the scientists. One of the security gaurds felt this could be too dangerous. We wasn't just a security gaurd, but rather a battle tested military officer. This was Xihuitl first assignment since his covert mission in Mississippi (this is secret), and he has read of and heard of Acigoo. It was clearly not something you would want near you. Xihuitl waited in quiet anxiety about this new mission.

The pilots of the AZ-Tu 95c's sent this message to Kongolan forces:

"This is Convoy 25, Sabre Wolf Alpha 2, we are carring relief aid from the ANL, may we have permission to land."

Another AIA agent sent this message on a secret band to ViZion's camp:

"ATTN: ViZion Forces

This is a message from the ANL. We are comming to help assist the situation in Kongola. Do you require any other assistance?"

OOC: *raises hand* Magically awakened nation! :)

Future tech nation of Georgian Rovenia here.

With the permission of our Parent States, we have been allowed to dispatch the following forces:

1st Colonial Interceptor Fighter Squadron (LX-470 Mace, three laser cannons, two hardpoints)

http://tachyondatabase.8k.com/ships/mace2.jpg

These space fighters can be used in an atmosphere, though they lose VTOL capability. We have given them heavy lasers (500 blasts per minute), light, medium, and heavy rocket pods, and plasma spraying equipment, works just like napalm. Each one is capable of Mach 1.57 in an atmosphere.

1st Colonial Marines: 15,000 men armed with laser weaponry. They will provide security for the base. They also have light armor in case of heavy enemy presence.

4th Royal Transport Wing: Ready whenever, even in case of an evac. They have Titan shuttles capable of Mach .93 in the atmosphere and gunship models of the aforementioned transports. When all else fails, call in a group of Spookies.

'Do NOT lose the 4th Transport" was made very clear to me, as I was lectured by my King. He was graceful enough to lend his own forces for us.

HMGRS Transport Carrier Expedition with six escorts- two anti-fighter cruisers, two planetary bombardment cruisers, and two stealth destroyers, are all waiting in space in the event of the loss of the entire continent.

We will setting up camp approximately 225 miles from the incident site and will be performing plasma sprays and gunship raids, as well as recon, for the time being. Don't worry about range, the aircraft have almost infinite range with hydrogen fuel ion technology.

We await approval from Kongola.

OOC: I'm assuming, due to lack of response to my posts, that ViZion accepts the vial and that's that. In which case my country's representative will just wait around 'til the meeting starts.
OOC: Sry I didn't do that well... we're gonna test it, but using only a drop of it on a small sample of Acigoo...

I do not believe a further blockade is necessary, as I have dispatched 10 divisions of my navy to do so. (each has 2 Nimitz Class carriers, 10 Ticonderoga AEGIS Guided Missle Destroyers, 5 Seawolf class subs, 5 Los Angeles class subs, and 2 AOE Supply Class Ships. Each aircraft carrier has:

5 E2-C Hawkeyes

10 SH-60 Seahawk Helicopters

25 EA-6B Prowlers

20 S-3B Vikings

25 F-14 Tomcats)
what we really need are some mages willing to board ships and aircraft with me, as they are faar more effective at taking the acigoo out.

Thank you. We welcome you!

Our Science Team that is working with the Marines has an idea.

"We can possibly slow the spread of Acigoo if we can increase the surface area it has to travel. For example, if we bomb out an area and increase the surface area, it will spread slower. We are going to, with permisson from Kongola, create a large ditch to see if this will slow the spread. The 32nd Colonial Engineers Battalion is equipped to do this."

The 5 ship come upon vizons base. Aimless sighs and curses himself for not getting here sooner. " Ok Can you please tell- Oh my God. That lake..... is that the goo???" Aimlesses eyes widen. Suddenly a transmisson plays over all ferquencies.

" THis is cargo plane 5. I repeat this is cargo plane 5!!. Our ship is out of fuel. It seems we have leaked fuel. i request help we are going to crash land in--- WAIT. turn around you idiot don't crash land toward the goo Damn were heading toward the goo. I think we will need ----" The transmisson breaks off as the cargo plane falls into the the lake. Aimless looks on with horror.

" Vizon can you confirm that or plane has hit that lake. I repeat can you please confirm that".

Please enter.

When ViZion's scientists try a drop of the liquid on a sample of the Acigoo, a strange thing happens. The Acigoo suddenly starts moving extremely fast and jerkily, as if spasming... fighting the liquid. Then, it goes inert, and starts to decompose rapidly. So, the liquid works. On small samples, at least.

Our Science Team that is working with the Marines has an idea.

"We can possibly slow the spread of Acigoo if we can increase the surface area it has to travel. For example, if we bomb out an area and increase the surface area, it will spread slower. We are going to, with permisson from Kongola, create a large ditch to see if this will slow the spread. The 32nd Colonial Engineers Battalion is equipped to do this."
"You may do this. Do anything you can to help stop this!"

(admiril christoph alexander speaking of the holy navy of christopher thompson)
Why don't we just hit the areas surrounding the infected cities for , let's say 5 km with our cannons and missles to increase said surface area, and save time, time in which the acigoo could spread?
(all ships take locks around infested areas and prepare to do so, subs lock-in missles, and prowlers take-off, in preperation.)
by the way. if anyone would like transportation around the country, i have many SH-60 helicopters ready to assist.

The 5 ship come upon vizons base. Aimless sighs and curses himself for not getting here sooner. " Ok Can you please tell- Oh my God. That lake..... is that the goo???" Aimlesses eyes widen. Suddenly a transmisson plays over all ferquencies.

" THis is cargo plane 5. I repeat this is cargo plane 5!!. Our ship is out of fuel.

" Vizon can you confirm that or plane has hit that lake. I repeat can you please confirm that".
"Holy shit! I think a plane just went into the Acigoo!" screamed Gouth Kenth in horror.
"What?!" yelled Jackie Patterson.

"Zackaroth just contacted us. Can we confirm a plane crashed into the Acigoo?" asked Pat Gilbserson.
"Yes." said Gouth, obviously trouble. "God... damn it!"

"Troops of the First Marine. You are up against an unknown enemy. Take a look at the men next to you. They will return. So will you. While the Acigoo may be strong, it is slow, and if necessary, we can evacuate or relocate the base far quicker than it will reach us. We expect no casualties. We expect perfection.

"Be courteous to your allies. Put aside, temporarily, all prejudices against nations of the incorrect political attunement. We must destroy this enemy or it will destroy us.

Today our goals are to set up a base. This base will be mobile and temporary- I want it to be able to be deconstructed in less than two hours, maximum, and loaded up for transport. Marines will secure the perimeter in their C/B/N suits. The area around the base will be sprayed with chemicals to kill off any existing organisms and sterilize the area.

I have confidence in you. Again, if all else fails, we will evacuate to the safety of space and let our two bombardment cruisers open fire. Loyalty to the Parent States, always!"

And with the speech, the operation began. Shuttles and fighters poured out of the Expedition and hit the wall of oxygen- the atmosphere.

The Acigoo suddenly starts moving extremely fast and jerkily, as if spasming... fighting the liquid. Then, it goes inert, and starts to decompose rapidly. So, the liquid works. On small samples, at least.
OOC: for the RP's sake, might I suggest that a large amount of this liquid gets destroyed the people are carrying it out of its transportation?

that's it, we need some radar and survalience up there, launch our hawkeyes.
yes admiral sir.
100 hawkeyes take off from their respective ships.
tell them to cover the entire country, and come back at 40% fuel.
yessir!

Tylinoa will then send 3 Infrantry Divisions and 3 Royal Armor Divisions to blockade any land boarders surrounding Kongola.
As of this moment the 1st,6th,and10th Royal Tylinoa Infrantry Divisions are getting ready to leave for Kongola as we speak.As well as the 14th,16th,and 20th Royal Armor Divisions are also being assembled for leaving.

Infrantry Divisions:
20,000 troops each

Armed:
M4A1's
9mm Beretta's
3 Grenades
Extra Ammo

Vehicle transports:
2000 Humvees w/ Ammo and Supplies

Armor Divisions:
5000 Abrams M1A1 Main Battle Tank
2000 M2A3 Bradley

Aimless sighs again he contacts the Kongola Officals.

" Hello. I am Aimless leader of the nation zackaroth. I must humbley request you let us land at your neares airport. Our planes need refueling before we can set up a base. Thank you if you decide to help us. may god bless you"


Aimless then contacts any base that is willing to listen to his plea.

" This aimless. I want someone to please help in retrieving my men that crashed in the lake. There has to be some way to save them. Some way. Please help us. There were many fine men on that plane. Over and out.'

In hearing that a plane has gone down, the "hermaphrodite" representative from The Royal Art asks quietly but strangely clearly, "How long until the people in that plane are done for? Have we any time at all?"

Gaines gets on the CB, "Look, there is no way they can be saved. I am certain that that plane has been eatten up, as well as everything else on it by now... It's been nearly 5 minutes. There's no way we can make it out there... you touch it, and it'll eat you up right away... I'm sorry."

The Governor-General himself is part of the 1st Interceptors, and is flying over the affected areas with two escorts. He is an ace pilot, cruising along at full speed of Mach 1.57.

"All I see is goo. Green goo."

"Governor-General, this is Field Marshal Esteback. We have reports that something just crashed into the goo. We're going to dispatch two SAR birds to see if they can find anything. Their engines can be rotated and they can hover, whilst you cannot."

"Roger that, Marshal."

A glint of silver caught the eye of Georg.

"Esteback, I can see what...yes, I see the parts of the aircraft. Dropping speed to 300 km/h. Get those SAR ships over here now, we can't do much from up here."

"Sir, is there anything left of the transport?"

"It's being rather rapidly consumed...all those nanites will fuel it. I don't see any signs of life. You may as well not send the SAR...at this rate, it'll all be over in a few moments, I can't even see if there is anyone in there alive."

"Roger that, sir. SAR takeoff cancelled."

OOC: Late at night for me. Be back tomorrow.

Admiral Christoph Alexander of the Holy Navy Of Christopher Thompson gets on all frequencies:
Hailing to Kongola. We have prepared our navy and our navy's planes to bombard the area around the infested areas, please give us an order NOW. This will increase the surface area that the acigoo has to travel over, and engineers from other nations can then improve upon our work.
please respond now, with locations of infected sites. i suggest all personel evacuate the areas 2 km surrounding the infestations, or be blown to pieces. if you cannot in time, i will send SH-60 seahawk helicopters in order to evac you immediantly. but you must tell me where you are.

The 32nd Engineers is currently at the ditch site and will stage a massive demolition explosion, with the help of some bombardment cruiser fire. Do not be alarmed.

ETA to blast: 2 hours.

Aimless sighs.
" Ok. may there souls rest in-----" the transmisson suddenly breaks off

Pliot: Sir all planes reporting fuel leakage!! Oh no !!!"

PLanes 3 and 4 collide and create a huge explsion in the sky.

" This is plane 2 i am going down i repeat o am going down into the Goo!! i need help help!! Oh god we about to crash in it!!----(( a few seconds later)) Oh god help me!!. Its eating away the hull. Oh god. NOno. nooo!!-----"

" Turn way from the goo. away from it!!".

the plane crash lands on a bumpy piece of land causing the front wheel to skid and the plane stops after skidding for awhile.

Admiral Christoph Alexander of the Holy Navy Of Christopher Thompson gets on all frequencies:

We ask that you not bombard the Acigoo. That will do nothing but help slatter it, and spread it, plus waste your own weapons and ammo.

Wait until the creatures start to appear.

OOC: would of been longer but i lagged out.

I see. i will hold fire untill i see the out come of your attempt.
carry on then. Please keep me informed, and Kongola, please respond to my requests, you are at my command. If any other nation needs my help in anyway, please let me know.

The 32nd Engineers is currently at the ditch site and will stage a massive demolition explosion, with the help of some bombardment cruiser fire. Do not be alarmed.

ETA to blast: 2 hours.
If the Acigoo makes its way there before your explosions happen, we ask that you do not have them detonate, as that will only help spread Acigoo.

OOC: which, for the RP, could make things interesting... ;)

Aimless gets up in the crashed ship dizzy but only for a few cuts and bruises he is fine. The pliot died on imacpt his head bashing hrew the windshield. For the 40 soilders aboard the plane only 15 survived. others either fell out threw the holes or were crushed by the cargo.

The 32nd Engineers is setting up triangulating beacons for the bombardment blasts, as well as heavy explosives. They have recieved your warning and...I've just been informed that they are ready and have left the area. The initial explosives will go off in five minutes and create a preliminary crater. The orbital blasts will create a massive crater and we'll see what happens from there.

The Acigoo is about 50 minutes away- our calculations were incorrect and we did not have that much time.


With any luck, this will slow down its expansion.

OOC: the blasting thing is it endangering my crashed ship??

IC:
"We need to move camp... now... it's getting pretty close." said Gaines.
"Yip..." said Sandy. She turned to the group who had gathered at the camp site, "Alright, I'm sorry, but the Acigoo is getting dangerously close... we're going to have to move camp, and then hold the meeting there." he said.
Thus, they began packing to move. Some of the scientists were at the observation area, and were notified. They obvservation camp had been moved four times already, and they were going to have to move again.

Can someone tell me how the acigoo is spreading? still cellular, or is it more formed yet? And how do we kill it!!
Please let me know how I can help!

OOC: just wondering but dont you think anyone would notice or hear 2 planes exploding in mid air or one crashing/?

OOC: Since I haven't gotten a response with my incomming fleet, I shall assume they were accepted.

IC:

The planes landed quickly at the airport. As the crews got off, it was quiet, dead quiet. Xihuitl stepped out of the plane and looked up at the crimson red sky. It was an errie sight. He continued down the stairway and looked around. Clearly, he was uneasy. Although he wasn't a intellegence officer for the AIA, he has done many covert misisons for the AIA. He was part of the JWI, Jaguar Warrior Infantrymen, the ANL elite Army group. They are generally considered the best of the best in the ANL - if they can't do it, no one could. However, despite all the tasks he had as a JWI, this would seem the most dangerous. As he begun to get lost in thought, an agent walked up behind him and said to him,

"Commander Xihuitl, you're going to have to stick with us. Your materials are off the plane."

With that, he converged with the agents/scientists and awaited for instructions.

We sent:
150 scientists
-144 are university scientists
-6 are AIA operatives (at this point, you don't know that)

150 gaurds:
-75 Red Gaurdsmen
-75 JWIs

Aimless gets up in the crashed ship dizzy but only for a few cuts and bruises he is fine. The pliot died on imacpt his head bashing hrew the windshield. For the 40 soilders aboard the plane only 15 survived. others either fell out threw the holes or were crushed by the cargo.
An old Land Rover could he heard in the distance from the crash site, slowly getting louder.

Inside the Land Rover, four scientists from ViZion and two doctors were heading to the crash site in hopes of finding survivors.

They knew what they had to do. If there were survivors, they had to radio in how many, and treat those people on the scene while other vehicles made their way to pick the people up.

After about eight minutes, the Land Rover spotted the crash, and saw people standing up and laying down. As they pulled up,
"Are you alright?" yelled out one of the doctors, Dr. Wilson, as he opened his door while the vehicle was still slowing down. He jumped out and ran to the nearest person.

"Are you ok? How many survivors, do you know? I'm Dr. Wilson, from ViZion, and I'm here to help you guys."

Aimless sends a transmisson on the still working comm.

" anyone who can here this transmisson. We are crashed on a bumy road we are setting up flares some someone can see us. This is a SOS."

Can someone tell me how the acigoo is spreading? still cellular, or is it more formed yet? And how do we kill it!!
Please let me know how I can help!
OOC: We have found no way to kill it, and there are very limited ways to slow it or stop it. There is only 1 way that we know of that would help contain large amounts of Acigoo, but the formula was long lost. We've been tryin to dig it up, but it'll be a while...
It expands by reproducing its self... thus, it will just keep expanding and expanding, growing...
You can help by having your scientists help out...

Sir
Yes, what is it?
Two aircraft from a friendly nation just collided, we have it on radar.
Christ, doesn't anyone train their pilot's anymore?
Sir, they crahed over the lake.
Shit, scramble 5 F-14, full burn to lake to observe are.
Yes sir.

The F-14's screech off into the sky.
This is Alpha 1, reporting.
We have what appears to be three craft in the lake, and no survivors.
Alright, what else do you see?
The 'Acigoo' haven't appeared to leve the lake alot, but are alowly spreading out from it.
Shit, they're moving. Confirm your last, alpha 1.
Confirmed, acigoo have started to slowly emerge, and are moving VERY slowly outward.
Christ, alright, RTB all alpha.
that's affirmative, all alpha, RTB.


Well, what do we do ow Admiral?
We wait for orders from other more knowlegable nations.

The person points weakley to Aimless . " Hes in charge speak to him. UGGG.

The person spits up blood and slowly dies. Aimless turns around. " Phew the clavary has arivved. We many injured in the cargo section. they are injured in the most extreme. some are crushed or being crushed by the cargo. Sme fell out threw the hole and some were just thrown around and are hurt."

OOC: Chris there are only 2 aircraft in the lake. The third one crashed on land

The person points weakley to Aimless . " Hes in charge speak to him. UGGG.

The person spits up blood and slowly dies. Aimless turns around. " Phew the clavary has arivved. We many injured in the cargo section. they are injured in the most extreme. some are crushed or being crushed by the cargo. Sme fell out threw the hole and some were just thrown around and are hurt."
"Well, we're not much of a calvary, I regret to say. But, we'll be radioing in how many are still alive. More help will be on its way." That with, Dr. Wilson turned to Dr. Faugh, "Alright, he said they need help in the cargo area. There's more hurt in the cargo area he said." With that, Dr. Faugh headed off to the cargo section, while Dr. Wilson started treating Aimless and others in the area.

Within moment, the official count was sent in. More help was on its way.

OOC: Sorry I'm not bein real discriptive or anything, but being sick makes your RP abilities go down like that :(

It was now time for the Tylinoa forces to pack up and head to Kongola. 10 C-130 Hercules would carry the 3 Infrantry Divisions. Another 10 C-130 Hercules would carry the 3 Royal Armor Divisions. It was now 8:40 TST and the first 10 planes carrying the Infrantry Divisions took off from the Ronolia AFB. "This is the Commanding Pilot, Joseph Kart, ready for the 10 plane departure." Capitan Kart announced to the Ronolia AFB A.T.C. "You are cleared for takeoff on runway 32R, have a safe trip guys." One of the A.T.C replied. Operation "ACIGOO BLOCKCADE" was under way. In under 30 minutes the first 10 planes were heading for the nation of Kongola.

OOC: I knowhow you feel. I have gone soon so im going make atleast 3 more posts.

(Back at the empire)
Right, message recieved.
What do they want sir?
Scientists.
What?
Yes, to help research the acigoo and find a solution.
I see. So, shall we grant them their wish?
Yes, of course. We hold education second to only welfare in our fine land, so we can make use of them, finally.
I see, sir.
Send them 100 of our best scientists at the Capitol University (our most scientifically prominent university) and have each guarded.
yes, of course.
by two marines each.
okay.
(they are rounded up and sent off immediently)

This is flight SCI-1 entering Kongolaian airspace.
Repeat, this is flight SCI-1 entering Kongolaian airspce.
Read you loud and clear, this is navy. Permission to enter granted. your landing coordinates are (blah), please proceed to the airport immedietly. When you land there, you will follow imported ViZion's orders, and will report back to me every hour on the hour.
yes, sir!
(the plane lands, they are at your command, imported ViZon)

As the ViZion camp was being relocated, Jackson Timlin was notified of Aztec National League's arrival. "Good," he said, "I will go meet with them now. They came in at the airport?" he asked. "Yes, at the airport." Richard responded.
"Alright, good. Then I'm on my way." said Jackson. He began making his way to the airport, which he knew would be a long hike.

"Jackson, where are you going?" asked Pat, seeing Jackson walking away from the new camp site.
"Aztec National League arrived. I'm going to meet them now." he said.
"You're not going alone. Not after what happened earlier today." Pat said sternley.
"Alright, fine, let's go." he said.
"Walking? Are you insane?!" asked Pat.
"Did we bring any vehicles? No." snapped Jackson. Pat walked over to some other scientists not from ViZion, where he asked, "Would we be able to get any transportation to the airport? Aztec National League just came in."

OOC: ok im gonna go now be on tommorrow. seey ya

Yes, of course.
5 SH-60 seahawk helicopters should be at your basecamp in 5 min. (to ViZion)
please greet them, and board, and they will escort you and your necessary personel to the airport.
I am granting these five choppers for you to use for the duration of this conflict. Use them wisely. I have also granted you these 100 scientists and their mobile labs to you for the duration of this conflict. please greet them at the air port.(for rp purposes, let's say that this is at the same airport aztec is at, so we can meet.)

"Perhaps we can be of some help," Karteri said to some scientists.

"Sir, you should see this. I'm looking at the lake now," Sarbes said.

Karteri walked over to her, curious. Looking at the lake, visible now from their position, he stopped and turned a clean-snow shade of pale, which was quite an accomplishment for a man with a tan as deep as his. Sarbes didn't exactly look that healthy at what she saw either.

"It's the Beta Strain," Karteri said.

"Yes. This has had enough time to get deep into the land. If it were the Alpha Strain, we could just give them the formula for the antidote. But this... My god, what have these people gotten themselves into?" Sarbes asked.

"I doubt it was them. I doubt it was anyone. At least we know strong gravity fields kill it," Karteri said.

"Yes, but how do you propose to get that lake to a black hole? It's a little big and we don't exactly have any ships handy," Sarbes said.

"Assuming we can even transport it at all. The one Sarkaraset file I saw on it stated the best way to deal with this stuff was to destroy the entire planet, and they had millenia of advancements over anyone we have encountered," Karteri said.

"Great. So we have to find a solution that two of the most advanced empires in history couldn't come up with," Sarbes said.

OOC: Be back tomorrow.

The acigoo must be tested for intelegence, for if we are to destroy the only other living intellegent organism in the universe, it will serve only as a loss to the scientific soceities of the world.

5 SH-60 seahawk helicopters should be at your basecamp in 5 min. (to ViZion)
please greet them, and board, and they will escort you and your necessary personel to the airport.
I am granting these five choppers for you to use for the duration of this conflict. Use them wisely. I have also granted you these 100 scientists and their mobile labs to you for the duration of this conflict. please greet them at the air port.(for rp purposes, let's say that this is at the same airport aztec is at, so we can meet.)

Hailing DeamonLordEnigma:
We have 100 of our best scientists waiting at airport (insert name here), and have diverted 10 SH-60 Seahawk Helicopters to pick them up and bring them to you for the war research effort. The choppers will be under your command for the duration of the conflict, as will the scientists, the 200 marines guarding them, and the scientists' mobile labs. please tell us where to go.

The ANL camp was set up. Already, the scientist were prepairing teams to go into the city and investigate. This was their moment, and to them, it could not come too soon.

Although nervious, Xihuitl prepaired himself for the situation. In his duffle bag, he pulled out some equpiment - a GPS device, his AK-103 and a armor vest. He took off his shirt and put on the armor vest and put on extra ammo clippings. Now, he was ready to protect the scientists.

As they clammored about, the scientists began looking at the situation more trivially. They began making bets on who would get the first sample and so on. Clearly, their excitment was getting the best of them. As the scientists continued their betting, Xihuitl went over to an AIA agent who was remaining very quiet.

Xihuitl said "We have no idea what we are getting ourselves into. I suggest we get more information before proceding."

The agent asked him "How do you propose that?"

"Simple, ask one of the other teams what the situation is."

The agent then agreed and went over to the communication room of one of the planes. He sent out this message:

All parties here to assist with the de-contamination and containment efforts:
This is the ANL camp, we request information to catch us up to speed on this situation. Please respond."

Yes, this is The Holy Empire Of Chrisotpher Thompson, Admiral Chrisotph Alexander Speaking:
We are currently blockading the nation, and have recently sent 100 of our best informed scientists, supportd with 10 SH-60 helicopters, mobile labs, and 200 marine guards to any nation who wishes to use them as an asset, as we know almost nothing of this 'acigoo'. two aircraft from another nation crahed into the lake of acigoo, 1 crahed near it, with survivors, and a nation blew up the surrounding are to try and slow the acigoo by creating more land for them to travel over. our f-14's just confirmed that a small number of acigoo beings have emerged from the lake and are moving slowly outward.

again, we have recently sent 100 of our best informed scientists, supportd with 10 SH-60 helicopters, mobile labs, and 200 marine guards to any nation who wishes to use them as an asset, as we know almost nothing of this 'acigoo'. if you wish to use them, you will have command of all of them for the duration of this conflict as if they were your own.

The agent answered back:

"Thank you for your offer of support, we shall use it if it is neccisary. You said there was a plane crash, two went into the lake while 1 crashed near it. Are rescue teams on the way?"

as far as i know, no.
i would assist them, but they have been reluctant to respond to my hails, and if you think you can do better, please assist. (btw, what technology are you? it's mixed here. some are magic, other like me current, and some future)

OOC: I'm current(modern) tech.

IC:
"Roger that. We will being scouting patrols soon. In the meanwhile, we will be establishing ourselves here. Take care."[/i]

The agent turned around and flipped a switch. A loud speaker was activated and the agent addressed the scientists and the guards.

"Attention. Before we being conducting any patrols, we will begin in earnest, establishing a peremeter. All troops are ordered to assist in constructing and foritifying the peremeter."

Although disappointed, the scientists has to wait. In the meanwhile, the troops began to set up a peremeter and take posts enforcing it. In addition, 6 light military trucks were unloaded from the planes.

The agent, who was in charge of the operation, sent out an encoded message to ANL Military Command:

Requesting 15 OVH-28 Helicopters to assist operations. Please send ASAP

Jackson Timlin approached the ANL camp. "Hello, I'm from ViZion. Who's in charge of your camp?" he asked.

The gaurd looked towards Timlin, a little suprised. Once hearing he was fromm Vizion, the Red Gaurdsmen (Regular Army) eased up and smiled. He said [i]"Ahh, good to see a friend in this strange land. The civilian leader here is Vincent Urquidez, the military leader is named Xihuitl. I'll get someone to take you to both."

The Red Gaurdsmen picked up a CB, turned it on and said something in nahuatl. Quickly after, two other Red Gaurdsmen appeared and offered to take Timlin to the camp.

nevermind, i have nothing better to do....
so....
IC: I propose that we all meat in one place and propose what to do about this.

"Yes, I must agree. Thank you sir." Timlin said to the guard.

OOC: Christ, we're planning to meet in ViZion's camp, which is set up about now... others are already there...

The Admiral picks up the radio set and says,
"This is Admiral Christoph Alexander speaking on all frequencies:
To the nations participationg in the removal of the vicious fiend that so poses us a threat today, I suggest that we all meet in one place for introductions and to discuss what we are to do about this plague that has infested our world. I see no finer place than Aircraft Carrier 1 of Alpha Group (my carrier), but please let me know if you have any othr ideas."
He places it back on the reciever and waits...

Righto, then. I'll be at ViZon's camp asap. 2 f-14's will be escorting my SH-60 Seahawk. I'll be there in 5 min (RP).

2 F-14's screech off the aircraft carrier into the rapidly fading sunlight. a short time after, a single SH-60 launches off, and the three get into a loose formation. They head off to the camp at the chopper's full speed.
"What do you think will happen, sir?" The Diplomat asks.
"Idon't know, son, I don't know." Replies the Admiral.
They come upon the base, the F-14's turn back and RTB. The chopper sets it'sself down, and the blades slowly come to a whining halt, as the admiral and his team of diplomats and strategists slowly emerge into the dim light.
"Hello, I'm Admiral Christoph Alexander, leader of the naval presence here. And you two might be who?"

"Attention, all involved parties. 150,000 Hammerian soldiers and scientists have been deployed. All parties will follow our guidelines, which are as follows:

1) Clear all roads and temporarily evacuate all Acigoo research sites. This ensures safe collection of the Acigoo, as well as the safety of your researchers.
2) Hand over all Acigoo and specimens upon demand. Researchers will be allowed aboard special Hammerian science vessels to finish their studies of these specimens.
3) Yield to all vehicles and persons marked with the Omega symbol. These are Hammerian special forces units, and the vehicles in question will be transporting Acigoo and the specimens.
4) Make your way to a Hammerian dropship site. Your researchers, as well as their specimens, will be escorted to Hammerian science vessels.

Please follow these guidelines to ensure safety for all involved parties, and to ensure a smooth clean-up and research operation. This will also advance the cleansing operation to step three."

The 10 C-130 Hercules landed at the airport. The 1st,6th,and 10th Royal Tylinoa Infrantry Divisions began to pour out of the planes. Then the Humvees were unloaded. "Ok, I want the whole entire nation of Kongola blocked from every side, I want checkpoints setup on every boarder of this nation, move out!!" Capitan Keeves yelled over with a megaphone. The 1st Division would take the northern boarders, part of the 6th Division would take the western boarders, and the rest of the 6th Division would take the southern boarders. Part 10th Division would watch over the eastern boarders, while the rest of the 10th Division joined the 6th Division in the south.
---------------------------
Meanwhile the other C-130's were over seas coming to the nation of Kongola. They were carrying the 3 Royal Tylinoa Armor Divisions. These Divisions were back up for the Infrantry Troops. They would soon touch down and be joining the rest of the operation.

OOC:

I saw the Evolution movie, pretty awesome stuff. I was quite surprised at the ending when guys used plain old shampoo to kill the mutant mega creature.

I was wondering if I could join in this RP? If so, I need to let you guys know about a special Tech I have been using and developing.

Sliding Tech, from the "Sliders" TV Show in the mid 90's. Basically, it grants you access to parallel Earths / alternate universes (that follow our universe's standards, no 5th, 10th, or 100th dimension crap).

My nation researches Sliding Technology, based off the TV series. It first acquired the tech as Quinn, Remebrandt, Wade, and Maggie slid into the world my nation is in. They "slid" into a station that my Presidential Train was passing through, and then they were captured, as the Secret Service thought they were terrorists.

Sharina spent several years studying and refining the Sliding Device taken from these 4 Sliders. President Rand Veristek founded the SPEA, or "Sharina Parallel Earth Agency" which would operate just like Stargate Command in the SG-1 TV series but uses Sliding Portals to explore thousands of parallel Earth's instead of the Stargate device in Stargate TV series.

Sharina has developed two major parallel Earth colonies. Sharina holdings in Earth V is its 1st major parallel Earth colony, while Whittier's Earth IV is Sharina's second parallel Earth colony. Earth V is designated Sharina Alpha, while Earth IV is termed Sharina Beta. The Earth the actual Sharina is located on is called Sharina Prime.

I wanted to explore the Sliding stuff as a perfect solution to all these different Earth's, and all these different nations.

However, there are three drawbacks to the Sliding Tech I currently have.

1. Can only Slide between the exact same position in both Earth's. For example, if you open an portal in Los Angeles in RL Earth, you can only travel to Los Angeles at the other end of the portal in Earth X (whatever number or designation). You can't Slide from Los Angeles in RL Earth to say, Paris on another Earth.

2. Only a limited amount of material or personnel can be transferred through Sliding Portals per Slide. The maximum is approximately 30 tons, give or take several hundred pounds. This means I cannot Slide heavy equipment such as tanks, howitzers, or naval vessels. However, it is possible to send parts of these equipment 10 or 20 tons at a time, then assemble them on the other side of the poral (using multiple Slides to do so).

3. The Sliding Portals require vast amounts of power to operate, and because of this, the fusion generators need 24 hours to recharge the Sliding Portal. Emergency Sliding Portals (for warfare or evacuation issues) only require 12 hours to recharge, but takes up a lot more space due to double fusion generators.



So basically, I can send through material and troops from my three Sharina Earths - Sharina Prime, Alpha, and Beta - to any parallel Earth, but in limited numbers and slowly (One Sliding Portal can only "Slide" once a day). I could evacuate people threatened by the Acigoo, and Slide them to a new Earth where they can begin a new life, free of the Acigoo.

If you guys aren't familiar with parallel Earths or alternate realities / universes, I would be more than happy to describe it in more detail.

What do you guys think?

OOC:
I really hate it when you go to sleep and wake up to find eighty more pages on the topic you left last night >_>

IC:
"Harmonia Mortus suggests a possibly way to slow the Acigoo down. Since it seems that this...stuff grows by absorbing materials, especialy organic items, why dont we burn the area around its perimeter? It wont stop it, but it will buy us some time. If we act as a group this should be somewhat easy. Perhaps if we burn everything for a mile or so out, then when it reaches that point we burn everything again. There is no real loss since everything we burn will be doomed anyway, except (hopefully) the last mile-wide area."

[OOC]: Well, I already gave warning of this, so here comes the bombers! (A note, these bombers are future-tech, but they're still just normal bombers, just ones with a longer flight time than normal, plus they're space capable. Won't make a difference to the RP though, 'tis just an FYI)

IC: Over the skies of Kongola, 5 sleek, sky blue aircraft could be seen streaking through the clouds, each carrying a deadly payload of flame and radiation, encased in it's own little capsule, ready to be dropped to the acidic, organic, and very pissy, heart of the problem.

[OOC]: Bomb drop posted soon.

"Unidentified bombers, what the HELL are you doing? What is your payload? We feel compelled to warn you that any conventional or nuclear weapons will have an adverse effect on our effort to destroy this stuff. It seems that most forms of energy attack only make it larger and stronger. Please change your course. If you do not change your course we may be forced to fire on you."
The three Harmonian ships had stopped in their orbits near the projected entry of the Rinceweed bombers, creating a wall of Thaumic cannons.

The lead bomber sent back the response to the Harmonian ships as they continued flying towards the wall of ordinance.

*Kzzzzt*Harmonian vessels, cease your fire. We are here to destroy that substance. We are carrying radiation inducing bombs, as well as napalm. We intend to cause the equivalent of a minature nuclear blast. We are also armed with standard Air-to-Surface missiles. If you do not cease fire, we WILL fire these missiles at any other ground targets, as well as drop our bombs on them. We also have a communications link to the Orbital Construct Pioneer Two. If you do not cease fire, then Pioneer Two and it's defence fleet WILL neutralize your ships weaponry. This is your only warning. Bomber 1 out*Kzzzzt*

[OOC]: Trust me Harmonia, you do NOT want to tangle with one of my Orbitals. Each is basically a small country worth of civilian and military personnel, and they're bristling with weaponry, not to mention the defensive fleets supporting them.

Oh, and the bombers aren't bluffing either. We WILL start dropping these bombs on civilian targets around the city if need be.

"Wait, you fools!" The Admiral of the Holy Navy of Christopher Thompson yells on all frequencies.
"You'll only fuel the acigoo by giving it heat and radiation energy from your weaponry! Let my ships make precision attacks AROUND the infested areas with their TLAM cruise missles, and destroy the organic matter that it can absorb. Our E2-C hawkeyes have been surveying the area for hours, and we know where to not hit within a number of feet, whereas you are new to the area and are dropping bombs, with MUCH less accuracy. Please, let ME do this, I have been preparing to do it for hours. If you do not respond soon (next time I get on this thread @ 4:00 pm central america time), I will be forced to decimate your bombers in order to save this region and to stop the furthuring of the acigoo. Please don't make me do this!" He hangs up the reciever "... Shit."
"Your orders, sir?"
"All able ships, lock on to the bombers with SM-2 SAM's, and scramble 10 F-14's to intercept the bombers and direct them away from the area immedietly."
"Yessir"
"AEGIS Systems aboard all Ticonderoga's active and tracking the bombers, sir. We're ready to shoot them down"
"Good. Wait for my orders."
"Aye aye, sir."
10 F-14 Tomcats screech off the runway of NIMITZ aircraft carrier 1 and make full burn toward the bombers.
"This is Bravo 1 Leader to all bravo, over. We will surround the bombers and take locks. They will then be ordered to turn back immedietly. They will be given 90 seconds to reply, and if they do not, they will be shot down. Let me handle negotiatons."
The F-14's soon arrive and make a tight-knit sphere around the bombers.
"This is Bravo Leader 1 Of The Holy Navy. You are ordered to disengage your targets and reverse course. You have 90 seconds to reply, or we will be forced to light you up. Do you understand what I am ordering you to do?"
.......
OOC: This won't continue until I log on later (4:00 pm central american time)
bye! (btw, this is getting good...)

Military airport controlled by Phalanix
In the distance the convoy of troops and scientists was jsut arivving when in the distance the slower moving equipment including the MBR-08 that was there to gaurd the orginal base. Though only a small group stayed behind to finish there patrol opps before meeting a dropship for pick up.
"This is NPE recon squad to AE recon squad come in."
"This is AE recon squad we read you."
"We're done our route and are moving to the fall back point. We are calling in the dropship now."
"All right don't wait up for us we'll be making our way towards the nearest allied base. We got afew images they might want to see."
"Ok.. hey what the hell? Shit! We got bombers inbound get to a com tower or somethign and alert the base to get fighters in the air."
"Shit we see them to. Looks like they are headed for the impact site. Fall back on foot!"

"Watchs the News about Kongolia On TV"
Hmm.... Rakui Exclaims,
What is it? asks Mike Kaskovic His Longtime friend and partner
This news about Kongolia......i think we should help...Rakui says with Concern
Mike Grins Then looks at the Tv
Well... hold on mike, Rakui says as he gets up and heads toward the phone
Mike stares at Rakui
Rakui: Hello? Yes, Hello 1st Flight Squad commander, I have a mission for you,
1st Flight Squad commander: Yes what is it sir?
Rakui I need you to get me a flight to Kongolia ASAP Along with 1st Special Forces Squad also,
1st Flight Squad commander: Yes sir
Rakui: ill be waiting at the Military Airport.
:cool:

OCC:The airport that I controll is basicly protected by 4 MBR-08 destroids and 2 Mac-II G destroids as well as 14 VBR-2 varibale fighters and 7 VBR-3 variable fighters as well as 150 Elites (think enhanced Spartans from Halo)

OOC:

I'd like to know what you guys think of me joining and / or using my Sliding Tech (Refer to my post a few posts above) to help evacuate people from the Acigoo? I'd really like to know so I can go ahead and start RP'ing here, or if I shouldn't RP in here.

This Acigoo stuff seems quite interesting.

Hello Squadren Commander Mete! Rakui Says With peace,
Hello Rakui Your Flight is ready Also the Special Forces are waiting on the Chopper.
Great! lets go
" everyone boards the Chopper"
Alright....How long is this ride going to be Squadren Commander Mete.
Uhh.....Mete says with worry, Id say about... 4 hours? ( NS hours)
Alright,

"Just About to Arrive in Kongolia"
Rakui Looks out that window of the Chopper over looking Kongoilas Wreckage
Whoa......Rakui Exclaims Sadly
What? Asks Mike
Take a look Says Rakui
Mike walks up to the window of the chopper and takes A peek.
Oh my god.. Mike says
Ok guys were landing outside the City get ready Says Commander Mete
Ok were landed come on guys lets go go go cover the other birds


A few Hours later

OK base camp is up, We got our guys Defending, We will contact the Kongolian Govourment ASAP Commander Mete says

OOC: Foe Hammer, good luck on enforcing that.

IC:
Suddenly, choosing to make an appearance, 10 DLE ships dropped into the atmosphere, speeding up to Mach 4. They headed straight for the Rinceweed bombers, disrupter cannons charged. These ships had orders to open fire if bombs were dropped, and they were not bothering to hide what they were doing.

~Communication to Rinceweed bombers~
I suggest you back off from your bombing run for awhile. You do not know what you are dealing with. Bombing the acigoo will be considered a great act of stupidty and incompetence by your nation. You might want to listen to what those whyo know what they are doing say before you indiscriminately try to help it out.
If you refuse to consider this, no ships of any nation involved in this are responsible for any lives or equipment you happen to lose.
-General Soybayun
~End communication~

OOC: I'll post for the other two in a bit.

OOC: For those of you looking to kill Acigoo or otherwise get rid of it right away... no... let this RP go on for a while...

Ya, I faintly remember that show "Sliders"... good show, though I watched it like only once...

Anyway, as long as you just come in and kill it or w/e, let the Acigoo grow so it gets this RP going, then ya, you can join...

Rinceweed, we demand you cease your bombings on the Acigoo. We will be forced to fire upon you if you do not back down. We need to work together to stop this, not spread it.

~ As aimlessis being checked for wounds he favors his right leg. It has been weak since he was stabbed there. He holds its wincing in pain.~

" Damn i think my right leg is broken. "

OOC: sliders was also a movie that spawned the T.V. series right??

looks up and sees bombers


ooooh shi...

OOC: Maybe, but not sure...
Also, I g2g for a while, got a group project, hair cut, and take the dog to the kennel (sp?) today, all within 4 hours from now... *sigh* plus, being sick, it makes it tougher...

"Dammit", said the pilot of the lead bomber,"We're getting signals from everywhere! If we continue, we're gonna get blown apart."

"Right, i'm sending the signal to Pioneer Two." said the Co-Pilot.

*Kzzzt*Pioneer Two, Pioneer Two, this is Bomber One, we're about to come under extremely heavy fire. We're under fire from Orbital Ordinance, we're picking up massive quantities of Orbital dropships, fighters, ground based weapons, the works, and it's all directed at us. We're requesting any and all backup you can give us. Bomber one out*Kzzzt*

*Kzzzt*Bomber one, this is Pioneer Two, we roger your request. We're going to send in a flight of interceptors. We'll do what we can to keep you safe, but no matter what, do NOT break off the attack. Pioneer Two out.


True to their words a flight of 40 Sky Blue, High-Speed Interceptors were launched from the massive Orbital Space Station, whilst at the same time the Orbital itself slowly moved itself my conventional engines towards the Harmonian ships, getting as close as it could until the Subvecto drive could power up.

[OOC]: Ok, the Interceptors are basically just 'Generic' Interceptors. In other words, they can be classed as simply cutting-edge (FT, remember?), 1 pilot, and armed with a machine gun (Nose mounted) and 4 Any-Range Air-to-Air missiles. (By any range, I aint talking 'OMFG, MY MISSILEZ GO 280153908510 MILES AND BLOW YOU APART!', I mean that they work equally well at Short, Medium, and Long ranges.

Oh, and although my Orbital isn't capable of providing Orbital Bombardment to help cover the Bombers and Interceptors, a LOT of the Capital Ships inside it sure as HELL can!

OOC: Rinceweed, I'm NOT attacking you, merely just surrounding you with 10 F-14's (only anti-air aircraft) and trying to negotiate that you turn around your bombers.

OOC: Rinceweed, I'm NOT attacking you, merely just surrounding you with 10 F-14's (only anti-air aircraft) and trying to negotiate that you turn around your bombers.

IC: "Rinceweed Empire, this is Admiral Chrisotph Alexander of The Holy Empire speaking. We have your bombers surrounded and are trying to negotiate your mission being aborted. If you hit the acigoo with those weapons, it will serve only to strengthen them. You have 90 seconds to change course, or we will be forced to lite up your bombers, repeat you have 90 seconds to change course, or we will be forced to lite up your bombers, over."

[OOC]: Post of doubleness Thompson.

Oh, and i'll be posting the final approach on the Asteroid itself soon enough. But an OOC warning to ye all. If the bombers are shot down, yer gonna have every Orbital Bombardment capable ship in Pioneer Two's defence fleet turning roughly 5 miles around the asteroid to dust (And, of course, giving the Acigoo the equivalent of 40 tons of steroids.). Quite simply, if the bombers fail, yer suddenly gonna be on the recieving end of a far worse strategy (For you) than with the bombers.

"You have 20 seconds to reply and change course. Please don't make us do this..."

"At least respnd to my hails damnit!" The admiral slams down the mic, and runs his hand through his hair. "What do we do, sir?"
"We'll give them one more chance to respond." He picks up the mic after collecting himself.
"Hello, is the Rince weed empire there. I need to speak with the man in charge of ordering the bombing raid immedietly."

OOC: I'm assuming the radio transmissions are coded, so I won't say I'm picking them up.

IC
The ANL Camp was not oblivious to the situation. Clearly, the radar was picking up several signatures. The normally calm radar map was littered with an insane amount of blips.

"What the hell do we do? If the Acigoo reacts to the heat and radiation, then we're all dead." Nervously said Agent Urquiedez.

"We have to get ourselves invovled." Xihuitl said quietly.

He grabbed the radio intercom and said tried to contact Rinceweed's fighters.

"Rinceweed bombers, we advice you not to fire in attempts in destroying the Acigoo. It will worsen the situation. I repeat, firing upon the goo will make it worse."[/i]

"Fuck-it, bravo team F-14's lock-on, but do not fire!"
"This is Bravo 1, all aircraft lock-on."

OOC: These are hails, which, by nature, are not encoded. anyone with a reciever can pick these up. You have heard all of them.

"This is Admiral Christoph Alexander hailing the Rinceweed Empire. Is there anyone I can speak with?"

[OOC]: Thompson, wait a sec. I'm already writing up the response.

*At this time, forces from the republic of hyperlight had just come into range....*


SIR! They're gonna strike that shit!

*Richardson spun around in his chair, horror streaked across his face.* Tell the fighter escorts to target those bombers, if they get within 50 miles of the stuff, give them to go to test out the new wingtip laser cannons on them. Tell the shield commanders to continue preperations for the new new deployment. And tell anyone within a mile of the stuff to get out in a day or be trapped inside!


*Airspace over the afflicted land....*

*10 of Hyperlight's prototype LRIs (Long Range Interceptors) broke off from the 50 cargo carrier strong airfleet, and came up behind the bombers, in a section of airspace quite highly over-run by forces.*


This is hyperlight escort Rouge 1 to unidentified bombers. Cease your approach immediately, or we will destroy you. Any attempt to get within 50 miles of the city will be considered an act of world war, and we WILL open fire. This is your only warning. Cargo fleet, proceed to your drop points.


(OOC: Since we specialize in magnetic shielding, we're testing our new city protection shield here. 50 generators in a 25-50 mile radius. The shields cut down into the earth, forming a perfect sphere, and at anything less than 50 mile radius, the shields overlap. Might hold the crap for a while, but I suggest you guys get the hell out, now.)

ON BOARD THE ORBITAL CONSTRUCT PIONEER ONE

"Sir! Commander Horoshimana Sir! There's a call for you from the surface!" said an aide as he breathlessly ran into the Commander's expansive office.

Behind his solid Mahogany table (Certain rumours said it had been taken from Earth itself at a massive expense, rather than artifically grown on an Orbital), the Commander looked up slowly at the Aide.

"A call? Who from? The Surface? Yunikara wasn't supposed to give the Colony's monthly progress report for another week!"

"Sir, it's not from the Colony Sir! Another country sent the message. They're threatening to shoot down the bombers launched by Pioneer Two."

"The what?"

"Sir, Admiral Ijikama ordereed a bomber strike on the country of Kongola. It wasn't an act of war though Sir, they're attacking.....Acigoo."

"WHAT!? Call off the attack! We HAVE to call off the attack! Any attempts to destroy it with Ordinance just help it grow! Send the order, call those bombers back!"

"Sir, we can't. They turned their radio's off a few minutes ago, countries have been warning the bombers away, and they eventually turned the radio off to get rid of them."

"Shit....so there isn't anything we can do?"

"No Sir, unless you want to shoot down the bombers."

"No....we'll just have to see what happens. Listen, send in an escort of interce-"

"Sir, Interceptors have already been launched from Pioneer Two to help protect the bombers."

"I don't care. We have to keep those men safe. Send in 30 interceptors [OOC: A note, just in case it matters later, that's 3 squadrons (10 fighters to a squadron)] from our defence fleet as well."

"Yes Sir. Anything else?"

"....dammit....we're already commited. I'm assuming Ijikama already started an Orbital Bombardment. I guess we should help him out. I want the Subvecto drives to get us directly over this coun-"

"Sir, 3 enemy ships have already taken up Orbital over the impact point. If we go there, they'll surely fire on us."

"I don't care. Get us there. Get all the ships prepped, all defences manned. We are going to blast that Acigoo with everything we have. Hopefully, enough Ordinance might just be too much for it."

"Yes Sir", said the Aide, hurrying towards the door again.

"But first...about that call. Pipe it through here."

"Yes Sir" said the Aide again, before finally running through the door to relay the orders.

The Commander picked up his phone to hear the voice of Thompson's leader.

"This is Commander Kanen Horoshimana of the Orbital Constructs of Rinceweed. What is it you want?"


[OOC]: A note, to the best of my knowledge, enough Ordinance WONT stop it, just make it grow even more. This is gonna be interesting....

Oh, and Thompson, what exactly should I refer to your nation as? Is Christopher Thompson the actual name of your country?

OOC: Yes, it is, but I like to refer to it as 'The Holy Empire', or the navy as 'The Imperial Navy' if you please.
IC: "You FOOL! Attacking the acigoo will only make it stronger! call off your bombers, or I will be forced to shoot them out of the sky. They are surrounded, and have been given orders to turn around. If even a single piece of payload is dropped from them, they will be obliterated. Do you understand?"

"Ah, sir."
"yes, what is it!"
"There's about 2 dozen more aircraft approaching the bombers, sir."
What! ... Match their numbers, send out thirty more F-14's, but have them not engage unless fired upon."
"Yessir"
OOC: that's 40 tomcats total, so 1 carrier is empty of tomcats, and one is missing all but 15. btw, to see my navy which i started building @ day 1, go to freewebs.com/christopherthompson

Xihuitl looked on at the radar screen as the impending disaster unfolded. Sweat began to form on his dark brow. This can not be good, possibly the death of all of them.

He turned to Urquidez and said "We can't do anything. They aren't responding to communications and we do not have enough fire power to stop them."

Vincent Urquidez looked outside. They were pretty far from the Acigoo, but such a large scale attack might take that protection away.

He said in quiet distress, "Let's just see what happens. Continue your attempts at communicating with them."

Xihuitl continued using the radio, begging to get them to call off the attack.

[OOC]: Well, I already gave warning of this, so here comes the bombers! (A note, these bombers are future-tech, but they're still just normal bombers, just ones with a longer flight time than normal, plus they're space capable. Won't make a difference to the RP though, 'tis just an FYI)

IC: Over the skies of Kongola, 5 sleek, sky blue aircraft could be seen streaking through the clouds, each carrying a deadly payload of flame and radiation, encased in it's own little capsule, ready to be dropped to the acidic, organic, and very pissy, heart of the problem.

[OOC]: Bomb drop posted soon.

The Battleship HSV Omaha, in Geostationary orbit, had an unusual calm aboard the bridge, which was soon broken by an alarm.

The Ops officer scrambled to read his screen. "Admiral! We have multiple atmospheric vehicles on route to the capitol city. Payload scanners report multiple dirty bombs."

Admiral Halsey glanced at Earth. "Jesus Christ! Scramble four Hellfire interceptor squadrons. Bring bow cannons and DSW systems online. Engage these aircraft as if they are hostile!"

Halsey opened a secure link to the Pioneer vessels. "Pioneer One and Two, if you open fire on ANY allied forces, your entire fleet will be neutralized by the four Hammerian starfleets currently on station. Do not take this risk. We have more than four times the power of your fleets, and we will not hesitate to use it. Respond, or we will assume that you are intending to engage allied forces."

*At the presidential house of Hyperlight*

Sir, they shut off their radios....


TAKE 'EM DOWN! *His hands pound the desk, making a crack in the soft surface.*



*At impact zone.*

We've got confirm.

Roger Rogue 1, engaging bombers. *As the pilot spoke, bolts of high state laser beams shot off for the bombers, clipping one.*

All fighters, war alert. Engaage and destroy enemy bombers, do NOT let them drop their payload. *The first bomber struck burst into a firey ball as more shots pierced the fuel tanks and set fire to the fuel within.

OOC: Yes, the name is Christopher Thompson, but I like to refer to it as 'The Holy Empire', or the navy as 'The Imperial Navy' if you please.
IC: "You FOOL! Attacking the acigoo will only make it stronger! call off your bombers, or I will be forced to shoot them out of the sky. They are surrounded, and have been given orders to turn around. If even a single piece of payload is dropped from them, they will be obliterated. Do you understand?"

"Ah, sir."
"yes, what is it!"
"There's about 2 dozen more aircraft approaching the bombers, sir."
What! ... Match their numbers, send out thirty more F-14's, but have them not engage unless fired upon."
"Yessir"
OOC: that's 40 tomcats total, so 1 carrier is empty of tomcats, and one is missing all but 15. btw, to see my navy which i started building @ day 1, go to freewebs.com/christopherthompson

[OOC]: Just quickly calling a partial godmod on this one. Posting the losses of other's forces is strictly against the (Technically non-existant) rules of free-form RP. And anyway, ye've got 70 interceptors bearing down on you, i'm kinda suprised ye've chosen to go for the targets that don't shoot back.

Oh, and the IC responses to all things to do with the bombers will be up soon.

"Shit!" Said Bravo fighters, as lasers swept pass them by only a number of meters. "We're being attacked!"
"All Bravo, this is bravo 1. Engage hostile untits." The F-14's lock-on with Pheonix AAM's and fire on the approaching aircraft.

[OOC]: Foe, read what's below, and start staring in disbelief at the might of an ENTIRELY space-based race.

For the record, my (Currently in use for this RP) fleet currently stands as follows:

Pioneer One

Like all Orbital Constructs, Pioneer One is huge. Not 'Oh, a Kilometre big you say? By jove!', we're talking '....wait, HOW big!?' big.

Pioneer One is, at best estimate, roughly 40 Kilometers big. (A note, when I say 40 KM big, each Orbital is shaped like, well, a Flying Saucer, except without bulges at the middle, so the size is in fact the diameter) The reason? It houses roughly 1 Billion people. This Orbital is the original civilisation Orbital. It was the first to be designed to hold my entire race. (A note, my entire race is FT, and started out in these monstrosities. Basically, the only advantage is that my country is the equivalent of lots of guns floating around in space.)

Pioneer Two follows suit, with both it and it's sister Orbital Pioneer Three both being 30 Km in size.

Each Orbital is the equivalent of a space-borne fortress, bristling with every type of gun we have available. Which, surprisingly, is only really 3 general types.

We have Mass Drivers (Simply, it's a big-ass Turret that shoots an equally big-ass chunk of solid matter. Just imagine a cannon on a galleon, then make it about 40 times bigger, and make it look futuristic with lights 'n' shit.)

Then we have Missles, the love of every force in the world. Missiles for us are NOT anti-capital ship weapons. We use missiles roughly 5 times bigger than that fired by fighter sized craft, but we still only use them for destroying fighters and gunboats.

Last of all, we have my little love-child, VOID-CANNONS! (Prepare for pain). It's my ONLY FT invention really. It's probably been used by others elsewhere (In different guises obviously, but the principle is probably similar to something else), but I still the love thing. Simply, it shoots a nice little ball roughly 5 Metres in Diameter, made of 'Void' energy.

Not really that impressive, eh? Whoop de do, I have a gun that shoot shitty little energy blasts. The reason for using 'em? They eat through anything. To be honest, just imagine me shooting jet-black blobs of Acigoo at really high speeds. Doesn't even lose any speed when it hits something. The only real advantage to these things is that although they can barely cause damage, since the actual area they damage is minute (Imagine a potato borer going into your ship. It hits it, and then you have a neat, tiny line right from one side of your ship to the other.


.....SHIT!. Only just realised how much i've just typed, sorry about that.

Basically, ye've got Pioneer's One and Two, along with their defence fleets bearing down on you.

Each defence fleet consists of the following:

1 Dreadnought (Basically it's the Dreadnought from the game 'Homeworld', except about 5 times bigger, and armed to the teeth with my weaponry)

4 Heavy Bombardment ships. (Just a 4 KM long, 500 Metres wide tube with guns. Think a bunch of guns superglued to an tube that's superglued to an engine and you have a rough idea what it's like.)

2 Hornet Class Carriers. (4 KM long, 500 Metres wide again. Armed with only anti-fighter weaponry (Mass Drivers 'n' whatnot), carry 30 Fighter-Bombers each)

5 Heavy Cruisers (Just Bombardment ships with less guns but more armor. Same size, shape, everything.)

2 Battleship (The armor of a Heavy Cruiser and the guns of a bombardment ship. Still shaped the same, just more economical use of space.)

5 Boarding Craft (200 Metres long, 5 wide. Each holds 300 men .)

1 Electronics Warfare ship. (Only 30 metres in diameter, shaped like a fairly flat semicircle.)

100 Generic Interceptors (The ones being launched to defend the bombers)

10 Generic Bombers (The ones being used to bomb the Acigoo)





And so, the giganto-post is over. My ridiculously gigantic fleet has been posted, and i'm ready for the space battle that may come if you decide to fight 'em.


And a final note, the reason for EVERYTHING being fricking huge is that, quite simply, pretty much my entire race is space based. We don't have any ground based forces except those on our Surface colony, and the minute amount that defend each Orbital's interior. We focus basically ALL military funding on space defenses.

Rinceweed, what happened to the bombers, and why isn't the guy that shot at them responding?

A large blue swirling vortex opened up in a rocky area near an ocean. Several figures and objects emerged, taking on the shape of men and two small jeeps. A large rover emerged after the jeeps, with several antennae and had medium armor plating. A man spoke into his hand, then several seconds later, the vortex collapsed onto itself and disappeared.

The man looked across his assembled command, and began to speak.

"This is Earth #18,317. Our objective is to explore this Earth and ascertain its history, peoples, nations, and the works. You know the drill."

A chorus of "Yes, sir!" erupted from the assembled team.

The team mounted the two jeeps and the high tech rover then began travelling southwards, away from the coast. Two hours later, a woman manning a long distance bionuclars rubbed her eyes and then cleared her throat.

The commander looked towards her, and asked, "What is it?"

"Sir, I have spotted a greenish liquid-like mass several meters to the southeast. It doesn't look like water, but it doesn't look solid either."

"I'd like to take a look, Juliana."

Juliana gave the bionuclars to the commander, and after a couple of minutes, the commander looked at Juliana.

"Direct the Science Rover to analyze this odd material. Perhaps we could discover something useful to bring back home to our boys in the Science Division of the SPEA."

==============================
OOC:

There ya go, I'm officially in. I have little to no idea about the Acigoo, except what was posted in the Acigoo Info Thread, and this is reflected in my nation's curiousity / naviete about it.

Feedback?

Rinceweed, what happened to the bombers, and why isn't the guy that shot at them responding?

[OOC]: After my uber-post above, i've only just started on the post for everything else. At the moment, i've just finished on the Bomber's post, and am now adding the phone conversation to it all.

[OOC]: God, seeing just how big that OOC post is, I actually feel bad about posting so much.

IC:
Surface of Earth

"JESUS!", shouted the pilot of the lead bombers as a laser beam narrowly missed his bomber, as more lanced from the skies above, striking near the bombers and the fighters surrounding them.

The Co-Pilot turned the radio back on again and started screaming down it to the interceptors.

"FOR FUCK SAKE, WHERE ARE YOU GUYS! WE'RE GETTING SHOT AT OUT HERE!"

Over the radio, through the static, a single voice could be heard.

*Kzzzt*This is Interceptor 1, we have identified your attackers, and are commencing our attack run now. God speed, and remember, 30 more fighters apart from our 4 squadrons are coming to escort you the rest of the way. We've also been told to inform you that the Orbital Bombardment by the enemy should be stopped before you reach the city's outskirts.*Kzzzt*

"Roger that Interceptor One, over and out."

On the bottom of the Bombers, the Napalm and Dirty bombs slid into position on the bomb racks, the open hatchways on the bottom of the bombers showing the landscape below full of life as civilians fled away from the city, and military moved closer to it. But the only thing keeping up with the bombers below was the black shadows they themselves projected on the hectic landscape below. But up ahead, the city could be seen, and boy, the bombers were in for one hell of a shitty welcome....

Onboard Pioneer One

"Listen", said Horoshimana, "We can't order them away now. It's too late. All we can do now is pray to god that with enough ordinance, we can destroy this substance. If it doesn't work, we have two Orbitals' fleets about to commence a massive Orbital Bombardment upon the asteroid. If those bombers are shot down, we will commence anyway. And trust me, the Orbital Bombardment is something you do NOT want to happen. Everything within 5 miles of the asteroid will be reduced to dust, and that hopefully includes the Acigoo. If you have any people within 10 miles, evacuate them."

Horoshimana slammed down the phone, worry plastered across his face. If this Orbital Bombardment didn't destroy the Acigoo either, the sheer amount of growth would be catastrophic....

The 14th,16th,and 20th Royal Armor Divisions finally arrived at the airport. Every tank and armor vehicles were unloaded from the aircraft, Each Division were now on their way to support the Infrantry troops. Some of the tank commanders claimed to see some of the acigoo as they were driving by. It had unbearable smell to it, most of the tank commanders and the technians wore mask to stop from smelling the digusting stench. Still they drove on to help with the boarder duties.
---------------------------------
Meanwhile, Capitan Keeves was trying to contact the ViZion scientists main camp. "Hello, anyone there, this is Capitan Keeves from the Tylinoa 1st Royal Infrantry Division, will this acigoo come close to the boarders?" the capitan said over a portable radio. "Keep me informed when they answer." he said to the field radio technian. "Ok sir" the technian replied.

(OOC: This is assuming everyone was evacuated and the bombardment of the Acigoo is commencing.)

"All power to Wraith system. Force reactors to 120%," declared a frustrated Halsey.

"Aye, sir!"

Halsey eyed the bow of the vessel out of the bridge window. The outter hull of the entire vessel began to glow a brilliant blue as the shields died, and that brilliant blue soon turned to a blueish-white. The Wraith system emitted a hum, which would sometimes resemble a choir of angels singing a glorious hymn. After a minute of this humming, Halsey broke from his trance and issued a decisive command. "Commence Wraith system, phase three."

The blueish-white glowed even more, and arcs of energy sprang from the hull, leaping towards two cannons in the bow. A magnificent sight came into view as the light dimmed. It soon reappeared, in an almost thunderous shot, which sent two beams of similarly-colored light streaking towards the Kongolan landscape. Halsey looked and saw 23 other pairs of these beams, all coming from the other Omaha-class GravBattleships in the fleets.

"Damage reports on the way. Scanning landscape..."

(OOC Background on the Wraith system: The wraith system turns the vessel into a weapon. Energy from the four 13-Gigawatt reactors onboard are diverted into the outter hull, made of Nordlundium, a superconducting superalloy found in the Nordlund system. This emits a dark-blueish or blueish-white glow when charged, and emits a hum. During phase three, the energy is focused into two cannons in the bow of the vessel, which hold the energy for a short time before firing. When focused into a small area, the weapon can do equal or more damage than a very large nuclear device. The total power output can be anywhere from 36-50 Gigawatts. As you can see, it is a very powerful weapon, with very destructive power.)

i have dispatched 25 SM=2 SAM's to destroy the 5 bombers, and I think we need someone to help the situation b/c the other 2 are killing each-other.

On the radar of each Bomber, even though they were still 10 miles from the city, missiles were already being launched, ready to pluck them out of the sky with all the grace of a half-brick in a sock to the back of the head.

"Dammit!", shouted the pilot of the lead bomber, "We've got missiles incoming! Start with the ECM and the Chaff. The interceptors might be able to take these bastards down, but i'm not taking anychances!"

Each Bomber started dumping chaff in an attempt to draw the attention of the missiles, whilst Electronic Counter-Measures went to work, trying to force the missiles to lose their lock-ons.

Meanwhile, the 3 squadrons of fighters heading for the Bombers were literally only just coming alongside the bombers, only for them to see the missiles.

*Kzzzt* This is Interceptor One Bravo to all fighters, we have missiles inbound, 25 of the bastards. All interceptors, arm Air-to-Air missiles, get ready to fire on those things when I say. If any missiles make it past our ones, open up with the machine guns, try and pick 'em off manually. Interceptor One Bravo out *Kzzzt*

Each of the 30 Interceptors armed a single missile, ready to fire at the missiles in an attempt to intercept them en-route, whilst at the same time getting ready to open fire with their nose-mounted MG.

Meanwhile, just above them, 40 more Interceptors, having reached the supposed position of the enemy fighters, arrived to find nothing, the enemy apparently having managed to somehow retreat before they could arrive. [OOC: Sorry Hyperlight, but it's just to free up my Interceptors. I can obviously just assume you flew out of my radar range before I could arrive, then you can simply turn the fighters around again to continue the fight] But, each fighter in the four squadrons could hear Interceptor One Bravo's message, and took the orders as their own, each arming an Air-to-Air missile, ready to start firing on the incoming missiles.


[OOC]: Well, ye've got a slight problem now. FT fighters ready to start picking off yer missiles in mid-air (I'm mostly relying on the missiles we're firing, since bullets aren't gonna really have much of a chance against something as fast and small as a missile). Oh, and a side-note. This means there's 70 missiles heading towards your 25, along with all the Countermeasures being deployed. Much explosions are about to ensue I assume.

[OOC]: Don't worry, i'm doing the missile post.

Oh, and since yer missiles are in the air (Unless, y'know, they somehow skim across the ground, before turning at a right angle into my fighters, which although would be impossible, would still be pretty cool), they're just targets for my missiles (My missiles just track Radar Signatures and Heat Emissions. Basically, we're aiming at the near-furnace heats emanating from the back of the rocket, and at the admittedly small radar signatures of the missiles as a whole.

Oh, and I could just go for the easy answer, and say 'OMFG, TEHY ARE TEH FT STUFF!!!1', which unfortunately covers pretty much everything.

Kyrasca, i was talking to Rinceweed, i wasn't aware that there were AAM that could take down anti-air missles, as none exist to my knowlege.

Bump.

[OOC]: Many thanks for the compliment Thompson.

: As the missiles neared the bombers, the missiles from the fighters detached, hurling themselves towards the enemy missiles in an attempt to do the arial equivalent of trucks full of Gasoline bashing into each other head-on.

As the missiles neared each other, a mere 2 of the opposing missiles were stopped by the ECM, losing their locks and simply shooting straight past the bombers.

Unfortunately, only 17 of the other missiles were managed to be shot down by the mix of counter-missiling and machine-gun fire, with most of the actual missile destruction being caused by the sharpnel of a few lucky hits bashing into other missiles, leaving 6 missiles for the 5 bombers.

3 missiles headed straight for the very back bomber, and with the bomber unable to even come close to dodging 3 missiles at once, it was shredded in mid-air, it's bombs adding to the destruction, turning it into a gigantic flaming ball of radiation and...well....fire.

Each of the remaining 3 missiles headed for a different target, with only the lead bomber being lucky enough to not be on the hit list. One bomber was lucky enough to have it's missile change course, and impact square on an unlucky interceptor, vaporising his craft instantly. One was hit square on by a missile, turning it into yet another fireball, and the remaining bomber got incredibly lucky, as the destruction of the bomber next to it sent shrapnel at the missile and it, and although no serious damage was suffered from the Shrapnel, it managed to knock the missile off course by a matter of feet, causing it to miss so narrowly that the paint on the bomber blistered from the heat emanating from the rear of the tube of destruction.

The remaining bomber crews counted themselves lucky, whilst at the same time mourning the loss of their comrades-in-arms in the bombers that hadn't been so lucky.

Of course, no action doesn't result in a [i]re-action.

From each bomber, 5 Air-to-Surface missiles were launched, with the bombers now a mere 4 miles from the city outskirts, with each missile located at the approxomated position of a SAM launcher's firing spot.

After the previous incident, the Interceptors immediately accelerated even more, streaking past the bombers toward the city in an attempt to draw away any more anti-aircraft fire.


Aboard Pioner One

"Sir....it's happened. The enemy have retaliated to the Bomber's attempted strike. 2 have been shot down by ground launched missiles, and 3 are within minutes of the target site. We're now preforming the counter-attack. We're sending in a squadron of Atmospheric Gunboats to start work on the city. They're expected to turn yet more of it to rubble with missiles and Mass Drivers."

"No Void Cannons?"

"No Sir, they won't operate in the atmosphere. They overheat too quickly."

"Very well. Start prepping the gunboats for action. What's happened with the Orbital Bombardment blocking the Bombers?"

"Sir, it appears to have temporarily stopped about 10 minutes ago. I would assume Pioneer Two is responsible for that."

"Excellent. Well, now to start praying again."

Bump.

[OOC]: Foe, to the best of my knowledge, no one heeded the evacuation warning, and literally everyone is still sitting around poking Acigoo with sticks (Which subsequently dissolved), and shooting at me with things that go boom strapped to tubes containing things that burn. (E.g. Missiles, and lots of them!)

Aboard Aircraft carrier 1
"Vampire Vampire Vampire! 15 missles closing in on our ships!"
"Shit! 'All Ticonderoga, activate AEGIS AA systems, and shoot down thos missles!"
"Aye aye, Admiral, Ticonderoga 1 doing so."
"Aye aye, Admiral, Ticonderoga 2 doing so."
"Aye aye, Admiral, Ticonderoga 3 doing so."
"Aye aye, Admiral, Ticonderoga 4 doing so."
"Aye aye, Admiral, Ticonderoga 5 doing so." You get the idea....
"Launch 30 EA 6-B Prowlers, have them Jam the missles, and start launching up chaff!"
"Yessir!"
As if the navy was an orchestra, a grand chourus errupted. 30 SM-2 missles streaked off to intercept the incoming 25 missles. At that same time, 30 prowlers took off from their respective aircraft.
"this is prowler leader, all prowler, initiate ALQ-99 Tactical Jamming Systems (TJS) NOW!"
On cue, all the prowlers turned on their jammers, and it created a firestorm of jamming.
The missles, however, still came.
...
of the 15 missles, 5 went astray due to jamming, flying off past the ships harmlessly.
however, 10 still raced to the ships. now it was up to the SM-2's and the chaff....
missles collided, creating explosions over the horizon, a beautiful cry of pain hitting the waters in their wake.
"Vampire vampire vampire!"
"What?!"
"4 missles approaching sir!"
"God help us."
Three of the four missles were all grouped together, heading toward a single Ticonderoga, and one was heading for aircraft carrier 6. The lone missle hading for the carrier was fired upon by computer controlled cannons, but was unsucessfully taken down. It rammed the deck of the carrier, sending jet fuel ablze and halving it's launching capacity...for now. "Get fire control up there now!" The captain screamed. 15 men dressed in blue, bolted out of the hatch and started to combat the fire. meanwhile, one of the missles headed for the ticoneroga ttok the chaff bate, exploding harmlessly in the sky.
the other 2, however, did not take the bait.
"Full speed, Full port!" The captain screamed.
"Brace for impact!
3...2...1..."
A loud thunderous groan was heard below decks and amidships. the ticonderoga had had it's TLAM's disabled, and it's engines' power halved, as well as having the 2 choppers on board burnt to a crisp.

"This is Admiral Chrisotph Alexander hailing Rinceweed. Repeat This is Admiral Chrisotph Alexander hailing Rinceweed, over. We need to stop killing eachother, the damage has already been done...look at the lake...Foehammer has struck it with a massive blast!"
The lake appeared to be bulging, and beings were rapidly pouring out of it, beings that were moving outward at a rate that was too many too calculate....

OOC: that was alot of fun, btw. not too bad for my first time, i'd say. although i think i got the short end of the stick at that engagement...
anyway, let's work on killing the acigoo.

"Sir", said the Co-Pilot of the Lead Bomber anxiously, "We're getting more signals from the enemy. They're asking for peace talks. Should we route them through to Pioneer One?"

".....no. Those bastards just killed 7 men. Our men. No way in hell are they getting away with this. We're doing this now!"

The bombers finally reached the city, and began the drop, a line of flame and radiation being traced along the ground as the bombers started their work, eventually leading up to the asteroid itself, surrounded by the 'Acigoo'. But not for much longer. Soon, the Acigoo would be spreading.

The intense heat and radiation washed over the Acigoo and the Asteroid from whence they came, sending the speed of Acigoo growth through the roof, with the Acigoo changing almost instantly from literally puddles of goo to small blobs, to blobs with multiple legs, to upright blobs, and even to a few ones making failed attempts at flight, and all within a matter of seconds.

Now the problem have finally escalated....

"NO, YOU FOOL!" The Admiral screamed.
OOC: this is my first rp, please don't kill me this early! :( :eek:
"Get Rinceweed on the horn, I want to hear their commanders' voice, one leader to another."

"This is the Admiral Of The Imperial Navy Of The Holy Empire Of Christopher Thompson hailing the fine and just forces of Rinceweed. We have lost six sailors and four pilots in your last attack. However, we attacked you for good reason. look at the lake. Your bombers have sped up the pace at which the acigoo will evolve immeasureably. they will soon start to fly, and God help us then... We need to put this pissing match of honor behind us and work together for the common good of defeating the acigoo which so threatens this fine nation, and our great universe, and both our live's. As we war with eachother, the acigoo is spreading throughout the land, tainting it, unchecked, while we sencelessly throw away our men's lives, our assets, and our precious time away by killing eachother. Please respond."

by the way, foehammer. you don't have to worry about the shield trapping me. i have no land presence here, only a navy sitting 15 miles away from the country, so go ahead.

okay guys, i've got to go. i'll be back on @ 4:00 pm Central America time again. This was a lot of fun, let's keep it going!
'till then, stay cool,
Chris :cool: ;) :p

The entire ANL camp was now all around the radar watching the situation. This was a total disaster. Vincent Urquidez looked towards the scientists and said "Forget about immediate scout missions. You are to watch radiation levels. If anything gets dangerous, you are to break down your equipment and evacuate."

The scientists all ran to their gyger counters and monitors. They also began to use satelitte telemetry to attempt to track Acigoo movement.

Meanwhile, Xihuitl got his men to take heavy fortifications along the peremeter. They had to be ready to defend themselves if neccisary.

"This is Admiral Chrisotph Alexander hailing Rinceweed. Repeat This is Admiral Chrisotph Alexander hailing Rinceweed, over. We need to stop killing eachother, the damage has already been done...look at the lake...Foehammer has struck it with a massive blast!"
The lake appeared to be bulging, and beings were rapidly pouring out of it, beings that were moving outward at a rate that was too many too calculate....

Actually, a Wraith system has been known to be one of the other Acigoo killers.

The Acigoo, once subjected to a Wraith cannon's shot, will start to cave in on itself and condense until it turns into a small, manageable glob (Enough for a few cleanup crews to handle. We then take it via special containers, and shoot it into a black hole.)

OCC: :headbang: Gah we are trying to have this as a long enjoyable RP not suddenly find away to kill the Acigoo and go home

I didn't SAY I was going to pick up the remaining Acigoo.

That just expanded your RP horizon by a metric fuckton.

Vizion bothered me to get into this, so I did. I can easily slaughter your sorry asses and waltz out, but I'm not going to. Just follow my fucking lead with this, got it?

-Hours ago-

"This is the Kalaskinov. We have aquired target and are awaiting confirmation."
"The ArmaLite has, as well."

Both ships were now ready to fire a tachyon beam that would hit with enough force to create a ditch around 250 feet deep.

"Central to Fleet, be advised, you are to continue firing and create a ring around the central beacon."

"Roger that Central. Weapon powering up..."

The capacitor coils began to glow red as the power meter slowly charged up to 100%.

"Tracking?" shouted out the captain of the Kalashkinov.

"CLEAR SHOT!" shouted back the object tracker.

"Energy management?"

"ALL SYSTEMS GO!"

"FIRE!"

The weapons systems operator pressed the large red button, and the ship fired the massive beam. The recoil impulse made it begin to go backwards at about 300 km/hr, and engines had to be applied to remain on target.

"Recon team reports a direct hit."

For about ten minutes, they kept on firing until there was a ring of 3,000m diameter.

"Central to Fleet, cease fire, cease fire."

The acigoo then arrived about thirty minutes later. It had to fill the massive ring and was slowed significantly by it, enough for scientists to collect 16 liters of sample acigoo. The acigoo could not be stopped, however, and eventually filled the ditch.

"Reports are in that the enemy is beginning to fight. We are going to ship the samples of acigoo back to the Expedition where we have a lab. All Marines are to begin full guard duty. The Governor-General must leave now. He will be going on the second shuttle to the carrier."

Field Marshal Estebeck got off the radio system and put on his armor and his holster belt, and then dropped in his LPDW laser machine pistol.

Marines began to deploy large laser cannons and tanks.

Now, let's return to where I was getting to before I was rudely interrupted.

IC: "Christ, I've never seen Acigoo in person before."

A Hammerian researcher walked alongside four Special Forces soldiers.

One turned to another, saying, "Well, just be glad you're not the poor bastard who had to find out what this stuff was."

And he replied, "Heh. Idiots. All they'd need to do is find a Hammerian science vessel on station. They'd make their job alot easier."

The researcher walked over to a few large, metallic bins. "Alright, boys. Here they are. Just be careful loading the Acigoo. 'Stuff spreads like a fuckin' wildfire if the EM field shuts off."

"Yes, sir," they responded in unison. The head honcho, a Special forces soldier denoted by only the letter "One" on his namepatch, gave orders. "Alright. Don your Chemsuits, load this shit up."

The soldiers went to work, activating and loading the containers. The EM fields inside of these containers suspended the Acigoo, keeping it from absorbing the container. It was a flawless design. That is, until one container failed.

"One" stood, looking down at a container's serial number for inventory checks. A scream caught his ear, but when he turned, he saw nothing but a container sitting by a small lake of Acigoo. One grabbed his SAR-8 Assault Rifle and approached the container carefully. Four was no where in sight.

One gently popped off the heavy lid, and peered inside.

The lid viciously flew open, landing 30 feet away. Pretty far for a 300lb. metal lid. Out of the container flew a blackish beast, landing on its feet, leaving a large crater in the ground. A patch of cloth was visible on its chest. It read, "Four".

"Oh, shit."

"Capitan, word has it that some of the nations are now fighting each other, what should we do?" asked Sargent Greg Polask. "We need to send some type of message to get it across that we do not need to be fighting right now, but helping each other, this acigoo can swipe out civilization as we know it." replied Capitan Keeves with a concerned voice. "All the base camps would probably be on the same frequency, so post this message, In a time of fear our nations need to pull together we must defeat this acigoo and keep our world, our human race alive, stop the fighting, pull yourseleves together and once and for all defeat this piece of shit acigoo." the Capitan said with a little pride in his voice. The Sargent went to the main communications tent, where the message was posted all over the base camps and the airplanes frequencys inside Kongola.

OOC: Sorry I haven't been around lately, I had a large amount of spyware on my computer and I've spent most of today fighting it, its gone now so...

With sightings of more advanced Acigoo creatures, the Izistani began to set up machine gun emplacements and various sensors around their camp. The Kestrals were still flying around tracking the goo's movement, with the Nightengales accompanying them of course.

OOC: Foe Hammer how big is this blast suppose to be. My plane crashed near the acigoo. Imported send a team of men to recover us. So how large is thw wriaths blast radius? If it too large its unfair to me and imported because i cant continue without him and he is not on to respond.
