If I knew how to do this stuff a little better, like legitly get a military and etc, I'd join, but I don't so I'll just sit back and watch?

I'll join as an aggressor, if thats ok with everyone. I'd like to get a little more experience in wars.

We're not really interested in gaining more nations, there are way too many already.

While I'm interested in keeping it to the nations who posted in the original thread (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=376109), I'm not one to dictate who can and cannot join.

I would still rather keep it to a small group of attentive *COUGH* RPers, though.

Hallad will join Aggresor's side, there is no argument to counter that, he would have joined earlier but was on Vacation

Yeah. I'm on the side of the Liberators.

For reference These are my forces i deployed to Congo, though he never posted his military stats, which i found infinitely annoying, b/c he could post huge amounts of cassualties and i would not know how much he had remaining. I would like him to post his standing army stats.

Ok, to set things straight..... I have 30,000 defenders near the coastline. GHI has equipped us with some 40,000 men but they may be only used in the fighting that will be deeper in the country. You must remember our coastline is only 169 km long. Here is a list of all our cities, which have been heavily fortified.

Madingo Kayes
Pointe Noire
Loubomo
Kayes
Mossendjo
Djambala
Oyo
Owando
Quesso
Impfondo
Brazzaville

Since the dry season has ended about a month ago the ground is still hard and so can support all mobile forces. The main rail network links every city to every major town and every fort. All together all of our armed forces mass up to some 200,000 men* which is possible Psov* because a country can conscript by law 5% of our population. Food, fuel and ammo is never short and our factories churn out hundreds of weapon every month. Trade flourishes because of investment in our country and of it's high quality goods.
If you need a map heres is one: http://www.cia.gov/search?NS-search-page=document&NS-rel-doc-name=/cia/publications/factbook/print/cf.html&NS-query=Congo&NS-search-type=NS-boolean-query&NS-collection=Entire%20Site&NS-docs-found=803&NS-doc-number=3

Where were you using them previously, TUC? Also, if you know who owns airspace north of your border could you tell me, please?

Regarding the FCD peacekeeping forces and placement, for future reference.

Equipment
(copied from the old war thread)

1st Peacekeepers
Equipment:
FCAR12 5.56mm - Assault rifle
FCSI 9mm - Pistol
Standard Issue Combat knife

Vehicles:
FCTT-12 APC
MPATJ-1 Jeep

Placement:

The troops are devided into four legions, with the first legion comprising of 2800 troopers, and the second and third legions consisting of 1100 soldiers each.

The 1st Legion is stationed in and around the capital, where they are protecting civilian buildings, such as hospitals etc. This is also where the 1st Peacekeepers' mobile HQ is stationed, under command of Colonel Anderson.

The 2nd Legion operates in the southern area, a reasonable distance from the coast.

The 3rd Legion is centered in the northen part of the nation.

Note that all troopers are carrying the national flag to be able to properly identify themselves as neutrals if they should be spotted by invading troops.

The 1st Peacekeepers will remain in the nation for as long as the Upper Congo lets them stay, or until the Party orders them to evacuate, which is unlikely unless they come under extremely heavy fire.

Yes. He took minimal casualties comapred to Psov and he completly ignored my artillery and orbital weapon attacks. And in one post he posted 500 deaths no wounded if that was to a artillery strike or a orbital weapon strike i think thats kind of low for a 169km long beach which is where I directed all attacks.

Excuse me, the 500 casualties were for the battle for the docklands. There were 500 defenders. All were wiped out. I posted more than 400 casualties for the orbital weapons blast, so shut the fuck up.
The Upper Congo
28-11-2004, 09:57
All people near the Sourthern Cities have been evacuated near the equator for their own safety. All defenses are finished and all soldiers are prepared for the landing by the enemy. 30,000 defend the beaches, along with some 900 artillery, 200 tanks and 120 aircraft. If the beachheads fall all hell could break loose. If casualties are big then the rear guard of 10,000 men will reinforce them. All pilots and artillery personal and actually female.

Two words for the invaders: BRING IT

Thanks to new technology oil is now only exported but not used because all our machines run on water and sunflower oil.

Brazzaville has finally completed a shipment of 50 tanks and 100 artillery pieces which in according to the Leader will be sent to the front to try and halt the enemy. The Allies must remember that even though our population is only 20 million we can still conscript up to 400,000 before our economy feels the strain. Let this be a good war.

OOC: The Upper Congo: http://nseconomy.thirdgeek.com/?nation=the_upper_congo

You DO NOT have an excellent economy, and only $6bn is spent on defence. I think you should RP a little more realistically.

EDIT: And you misunderstand the 5% "rule". You can conscript up to around 5%, BUT it screws up your economy a la Soviet Russia and the USA. During the Second World War nations conscripted around 2% of their workers and the economy was severely damaged.

Ok. Your budget is 15 billion. Congratulations. You still can't afford much. After all, in the 15 billion you must pay your troops, keep your army vehicles, naval ships, and airplanes in a condition that is able to be operated. You also have a branch for research and development, and one for buying weapons.

No he might be able to have a half decent tank force so long as the total military numbers are kept small-ish, but navies are far too expensive, aside from maybe a patrol boat or two, and the airforce was reasonably accurate. This doesnt mean he cant win (especially with so many people helping him) just that it'll be hard, but then it should be, considering our nations are large, 1st world military powers, and his is not.

Is your supplies going to be teleported to your men? Doubt it or you'd have better weapons and a better economy.If was win I want the coastline for me. Also when posting losses post where the fight was in the title and the name of the person who smashed you in brackets like this

President Joubert has resigned from his post! He led the country though it's glory days and was there when everyone else had abandoned us.... He left stating that the increasing pressure from some 30 countries ready to invade the Sourthern Coast and topple his Government was to much to bear and the least he could do is not spill any blood. Vice President Andrew Rice has been elected by the Supreme Council to rule until his time is up. President Rice has appealed to all the Allies for an Armistace.

Encrypted Telegram to The Republic of The Upper Congo

The Democratic Imperium of Praetonia notes your interest in an armistice
agreement, and we therefore propose the following terms. These are
non-negotiable and failrue to comply in full will result in the continuation of
invasion plans:

1) President Joubert and key figures in his government are to be arrested and
tried in an international court for war crimes.

2) All existing and in-development nuclear, biological or chemical weapons
programs are to be shut down and their materials destroyed.

3) Praetonian troops be allowed into your nation.

4) You agree to the establishment of permanent allied military in your nation.

5) Your navy, except for coastal boats, is to be handed over to the allies, as
is your airforce, with the exception of a ten short-range planes.

6) Your army is to be reduced to 20,000 men and 100 armoured vehicles
maximum.

7) All military redevelopment is to be put on hold for 7 years (one RL week).

8) You are to issue a formal apology to the families of the people executed.

9) All political prisoners are to be released. Note that this does not include
people who committed violent acts in support of their political views.

10) All laws against communist organisations are to be repealed.

11) Free and fair elections are to be held, which do not exclude communist
parties.

29-11-2004, 17:19
I need to ask some questions, after one RL week can I start to rebuild my Navy? We did not devolop any kind of missiles because of our lack of interest in it and also our lack of uranium. Also all political prisoners were already released to help stop the threat of war. But that sure did not work. We agree to all your rules, but a few points: We will only allow Praetonian troops onto our soil, and Ex President Joubert went into self-exile and we cannot locate him. Also we are already having an election in 4 days and the communists have not put anyone forward to represent themselves.
Praetonia
29-11-2004, 17:59
OOC: It's very unlikely that the Communists wouldnt put anyone forward, but if you really want to say that then fair enough, it's your nation. Still, all laws preventing them or impeding them are to be removed.

And yes, after 1 real life week all of the military limitations will expire, but until then Praetonian troops (having only Praetonian troops is fine) will enforce the restrictions.

The Ex-President is to be declared a criminal and, if he ever returns to TUC, he is to be arrested and handed over to Praetonia or another allied nation to be tried in an international court for War Crimes. Also, the allies will most likely set up an investigation into his whereabouts.

Official Statement, Imperial Government

All foreign peacekeepers, as per the treaty, are officially expelled. If said foreign troops are not removed from The Upper Congo within one week (168 hours), Imperial troops will take action to enforce their removal. Any attempt to undermine the peace agreement (OOC: *cough* GHI *cough*) will be met with reprocussions. Any attempt to land military equipment or troops in breach of the agreement will be opposed by the Imperial Navy.

Encrypted Telegram to Psov

Your troops will be allowed entry to The Upper Congo so long as they then
establish a base, which will be considered Psovian sovereign territory, and do
not leave whilst on duty except where requested by both Psov and
Praetonian military commands. At no point is the number of Psovian troops in
The Upper Congo to match or exceed the number of Praetonian troops
stationed therein.

OOC: IE - Not all nations in the real world (especially 'old' Europe, ie before WWI, this nice nation thing is really quite new) are nice, consciensiouce pro-sovereignty nations that everyone in NS seems to be these days (either that or an 'evil' nation (ie DA, the others who randomly commit genocides) who also dont exist in real life, nor are they very realistic). Im not going to destroy all (or really any) of his RP opportunities, because yes there is a player behind the nation who wants to have fun in NS, nor am I going to make him a colony, nor am I going to make him a vassal state, but interefere with his government when it suits? Probably. I just want an interesting on-going conflict RP that doesnt end in:

a) Ignorefest
b) Everyone signs a treaty agreeing to go back to the way it was before, minus the genocide or whathaveyou.

OOC: The Upper Congo surrendered to me. Regardless of how many troops I had in TUC, or how many troops you have, he surrendered to me and so you have no right to be there if we dont want you to be. I agree, you dont *have* to pull out, but you would risk war with Praetonia. Perhaps you dont mind risking hundreds of thousands of troops for some other nation that has no real relevance to your nation, and if you do then ok that's your choice, although not an advisable one to make.

Although you may not have signed the treaty, the war between Psov and whoever is now over, and if you remain in TUC then you will be committing an act of war against me AND TUC.

If that doesnt answer it then im not quite sure what you're saying. I never claimed to own Psov's forces, and Psov supports the peace agreement and is deploying troops to TUC to help the with the temporary occupation.

EDIT: In the old thread you asked for him to pay you $50bn in reparations, which Im willing to give you in return for you removing your troops. Also i doubt you'd have been able to land 230,000 men in just a week or two...

OoC: Oh, I know that Praetonia, I have no problem with an invasion, my problem is with the conflict being entirely based on one side getting a huge number of people who really have no idea what's going on.

That being said, I certainly agree OoCly with the current terms, as I trust you with your occupation, it's the 'allies' I mistrust. ICly, of course, Tyler McLagherty is still disgusted, enough so that I might use this as a base for another RP. Afterall, no man can take the riggers of eternal life forever, perhaps it's high-time for his centuries old Governers post to be emptied and re-filled. Even the greatest genius in all of Republic space can go crazy once life becomes too hard for him...

That being said, I'm interested in perhaps negotiating a deal where nuetral peacekeepers are allowed to stay, mostly seeing as they never became involved in the conflict beyond assisting the civilian populace (and were there at the behest of the former-president, anyway). Shall I post it in your new thread?

Also, TUC, my IC offer to your former president still stands...

The Federation of FCD urges Praetonia to reconsider and let at least a portion of the FCD Peacekeepers stay in the nation. These troops have been stationed there since before the war, to protect the civilians during the period after the civil war. They have done quite a bit of good there, and the Party feels that they have more to offer the people of Upper Congo.

Nevertheless, if you persist in ordering our troops to leave, they shall do so, and be sure to pass on any information that may be of use to the occupying forces.

The Democratic Imperium does not recognise the right of Maldaathian troops
to remain in The Republic of The Upper Congo. The presence of your troops is
in violation of the agreement signed by the provisional government of The
Upper Congo, and, should you choose to continue the conflict that has as of
now been ended peacefully, the Democratic Imperium will not hesitate to
enforce the terms of the armistice agreement. If, however, as we believe you
should, accept that the war is over and that your continued presence will
only cause future conflict, then we are willing to reimburse you for the trouble
of deploying troops to the region to the sum of $50bn. We hope, for the sake
of the thousands of lives at stake, that you make the right decision

And anyway, our military is becoming better by the day thanks to GHI's military advisors. Psov, as I said earlier only Praetonian troops are allowed to come onto my soil without being fired on. I am sorry but it cannot be allowed, even if you did start the war. Maldaathi, don't make this hard for yourself, if you continue with your seperate operations no-one will support you and you will crumble.

In order to ensure that the views of all combatants are represented, we must
insist that Psov be allowed to bring troops into The Upper Congo. However, we
understand your concerns and so we have stipulated that Psovian troops must,
whilst on duty, be confined to a military base in The Upper Congo which will
legally be classified as Psovian sovereign territory. We should remind you also
that Praetonian troops are currently stationed in all Congoan military bases to
facilitate decommissioning of arms.

Destruction of a goverment building
Intention of destroying the economy

It was actually true. Believe it or not. The Leader, one Charles Fenger authorised the buying of some 30 kilograms of C-4 and Dynamite with the donation from a wealthy businessman. They planned to do another do or die attack just this time with some 30 members attacking the Rickenoff PowerPlant coar reactor. If they planted enough C-4 there it could amount to the power of some 4 nuclear bombs. If they attacked the larger Congo dam it would have flooded some 100 miles, also some of the water would have rushed towards the border devastating much of their farmland. Their attack plan was simple, just do what you did last time. VERSA, under Congonian Law was rightfully shut down by the Government.

All leading members of the terrorist group have been tried. The Leader of finance Adrian Monker was found innocent when he was put on the lie detector and said he ''knew nothing'' of the incident and is ''disgusted'' at the thought of another attack on The Upper Congonian economy. 2 more were found innocent but 3 leading members were found guilty and will be executed by firing squad tommorrow at 5.30 am.
