Invasion of Boris III
The 1,000 Blackbird Spyplanes had been in the machine shops for years, trying to find the best way to fit devastating missiles into them. The work was not fruitless. They had been given JP223 airfield denial bombs, with an Ankhmeti twist. They had guidance vanes, a booster on the back and laser guidance. When the order to scramble came, the pilots all grinned.
"This will be a standard raid, go to the highest altitude possible and drop the weapons over the enemy government buildings. The Minelets should stop them from rebuilding too quickly. You are to also hit AAA emplacements in preparation for a drop of paratroops over the capital city. those guys will be scattered all over the shop, as they'll be dropping only a couple of thousand feet below you. the intended effect is fear. B-52 bombers will go in after to drop leaflets urging the surrender of the government. Good luck."
The pilots boarded their planes, and took off. They would be over the target in 8 hours of high-speed flying.

OOC: Your really doing this??? *feeling of impending doom*
ooc:Yes, I am. He can *flufflewuff* my *flabberjack*.
The jets screamed in at the target, the government buildings of Boris III.Strangely enough, no orders had been heard on any radio frequency, and the anti-aircraft guns were not firing. Targets were reassigned to the government buildings.
Each plane dropped it's bomb into the general area, whilst the steering vanes did the rest. They JP223ANs exploded just above ground level, causing massive damage, and dropping mini-mines intot he surrounding area. The overall effect of the assault was unnkown.
BORIS III CAPITAL CITY
10,000 FEET
The paratroopers of the Ankhmeti 'Warriors of Ra' paratroop division stared out of the back of their planes. They saw the glow of the massive explosions tearing apart the centre of the capital, ad shuddered. They knew that no planes had been scrambled, no AAA had been fired. All was still, apart from the noise of bombs.
"Sound off for equipment check!"
The sound-off started. They all checked out okay, all ready. No-one wanted any death-by-freefall.
"GREEN LIGHT!GOGOGOGOGO!"
They filed along the plane, jumping out in twos. The elite of Ankhmet entrusted themselves to the air, and to the will of the Gods. Minutes later, canopies could be seen filling the air, paras landing on buildings, in streets and on shopping malls, crashing through skylights, and occaisionally landing on target. They all got their guns ready, fired at any shapes that could be seen this late at night, just a shot to scare off civilians, and got ready to snipe at enemy troops.
Welcome to the Ankhmeti News Network, with breaking news on the Boris III situation.
"The glorious paratroopers of Ankhmet have met no resistance at all in the invasion of the capital city of Boris III, for some reason the government never made any attempt to give orders. The government buildings were taken 2 hours ago, and everyone in them was lined up against a wall and shot by the glorious 'Angels of Ankhmet' political squad. We estimate 1,000 deaths by firing squad, and more of the miserable scum are being discovered by the hour. More government buildings are being found, and all the officers of the local military are being shot by the 'Angels of Ankhmet'. In Ra's name, it has been a glorious day for the Imperium. The spokesman of the Ankhmeti forces was quoted as saying:' this is a sign to the world that when Ankhmet says it will go to war, it will, and does so with no mercy for those who have ofended the Imperium.Let this day be a warning to the opponents of the Imperium:you will not live.' This is a definate statement, not the kind of thing the military have been known to say, but it shows the world who is boss. New death count:1,057.Now to sports..."
