Desciver Declares Himself a God, Heretics Executed

Dracun News Breif
"Hello ladies and gentlemen, I'm Maria Janson, and this is your world tonight.
His lordship has declared himself an Olympian (Dracun's believe in the 12 gods of ancient Greek culture). He calls himself the God of deceit and power and he has been granted this by Zeus himself. He deems any who thinks otherwise shall end up as the White Clan is, dead. In other news...."
Imperial Palace, Imperium City
"My lord this has two possibilities, either a greater popularity, or a civil war. Your risking too much on this phase my lord" Marc said on one knee bowing before his "holiness."
"Marc, you have uttered these words to a god? Heresy! Let me be the first to introduce you to my warriors, Spartans, this fool is a heretic! Dispose of him"
"Desciver...no I served you so well and faithful..." He was cut off as 2 figures surged forward in black hooded cloaks. They drew their knifes and cleanly cut of the former chief advisor's head.
"Now my servants, go and make sure no other has such heresy!"
They merely nodded and walked out.
------
All throughout Dracun heretics were brought forward and executed in public display much as the white clan had been except only less brutal. The Spartans had been given complete authority over the police and their associated professions (SWAT, Riot and such).
"Death to the heretics" was cheered among the dillusioned crowd. Desciver had done the final part, he had eliminated all who opposed him and now was the sole ruler of Dracun. His people would follow him to death and they had no clue he was using them for power.
Ah the power of Deceit, it is truly the greatest thing
From the goverment of the Dominion of Theao
Congratulation on you recent "deification", "god" emperor Desciver of the Dracum imperium. We would like to congradulate you on you tightning of the reins of your goverment.
Emperor Tokahito is the manifestation of God on earth. Your futile claims are simply frivolous attempts to satisfy your own ego and grab more power. The Emperor himself says to you,
"A man is like a fraction whose numerator is what he is and his denominator is what he thinks of himself. The larger the denominator, the smaller the man."
Consider it the honor of your pathetic existence to have even gotten the attention of the Emperor.

Re: Unjust Executions
It has come to our attention that the government of Dracun Imperium has resorted to violence against their own citizens because of different views of leader being a 'God'. With the execution of the chief advisor in the wake of this announcement, it has prompted this mandate from the President of Jarridia:
"The Government of Dracun Imperium is hereby charged with 'unjust executions' of innocence and hase therefore caused a ripple in the Jarridian Bureau of Foreign Affairs. We will not allow such actions to take place, and therefore but take action to prevent further atrocities such as these. All that is necessary will be done in order to fulfill the ending of this treacherous decree."
The Pure Democracy of Jarridia, with the recognition of all 3 main branches of the government, has chosen to restrict all trade from Jarridian allies, and the WWA to Dracun Imperium until futher notice. It will be noted that these restrictions will continue until Dracun Imperium relinquishes its efforts against its own populous, or new efforts are required to stop Dracun Imperium. Thank you.

RE: Diplomatic Status
The Triancian Government wishes to make clear that the current actions of the Imperum's Government are inexcusable breaches of basic human rights. Currently, the Triancian government has informed the Department of Commerce to suspend all trade to the Darcun Imperium, exculding food and humanitarian supplies.
It should also be known to the Imperium that approxamatly 1300 Triancian citizens are currently in country, on various duties, inculding two relgious missions. We expect all due courtesy and protection under the law for our citizens, and for those who wish to leave the country to be allowed to. If any citzen of Triancia comes to harm, it will be consider a hostile act, and counter-actions will be taken.

First off, I would like to proverbially slap Lokiaa in the face with a large badger for ever trying to involve himself with nations that are thousands times his size.
With that out of the way, I would now like to proverbially slap everyone else in this forum so far except Jarridia for not knowing how to spell.
Now to the point, I believe that this idea of mass genocide of your own people is the most moronic way of getting a point across. I understand that you may want to punish your people because they don't believe that you are a god, but the fact that you would willingly kill off members of your workforce, your military, and your government is daft. Then, the way you handle your foreign relations is quite laughable. If anyone disagrees with you or threatens you, you simply stick your fingers in your ears and start singing like a wounded mongoose (You ignore them). Yet, if you see a potential ally, you decide that he is immediately worthy of your "presence" and your friendship.
Now, if you continue this idiotic display of an inflated ego, then I must ask you to step down and out of my sight, or I will personally show up and beat you with a banana. Then shoot you. Consider this your first and only warning.

This is a fantastic approach to keeping order and maintaining loyalty to the Military. The demands on your civil protection services must have decreased somewhat, assuming most people believe in you. Of course if they don't, you probably have to work harder to maintain law and order...
I'd try it for myself if there was a religion to exploit here. I don't think I would go so far as to execute disbelievers, though. It's neither economically nor militarily viable.

That's how you play.
Say "My marines are trying to land here" he says"Ok, they sneak past". As long as both of the people play fair, it works out wonderfully.
ooc, Mondoth I doubt you could land without being detected, 2 where would you land, 3 your force would be assaulted before they even got close to on my Sects. 4. So you are ignored for now
1 no large scale force ever 'landed' at most 6 men were within a hundred miles of each other at a time if you could have detected and thwarted even 1 of them with no warning and with out any assets already in plavce then you must realy be a god and as a god you would recieve the normal tratment for mortals who play far outside their capabilities, that's right, the I.G.N.O.R.E. cannon
2 I landed wherever there was an empty stretch of shorline, if your country has any shore line at all then it most likely has emoty stretches
3 I never had a 'force' there was single submerged assault ship and a pair of subermisible landing craft, if you detected them then you deserve to have destroyed them my submersible crafts make the american Ohio class sound like an entire MIG fighter wing breacking the sound barrier (That's louder than the human ear can remain undamaged after hearing), also I never got near to any of your 'sects' my forces remained in un inhabited areas, hence the necesity for really big antenas in order to get the radio message to any recievers ( I used enough transmitters with large enough antenas that the other side of the world could probably here the message if they were really trying)

Ten thousand highly trained men, posing as a tourists, with nothing more dangerous than rolls of tinfoil, passed through customs (I guess you COULD detain them if you want, just let me know and ignore the rest of this post), intent on striking down this "God Almighty". They entered at different sections of the border, at different times and dates, and began heading towards the capital, biding their time for the next big speech.
~~DELAYED ACTION~~ Will take place immediately during next big speech on next hot summer day.
The three hundred men entered the coliseum, and with orders to use their 50x50cm pieces of tinfoil to flash the "God" in the eyes upon the sounding of a novelty klaxon. With any luck, enough of them would get him to incinerate him in the power of the sun, though if not, he would most certainly be blinded.
The klaxon sounded, and the thousands of men flashed their pieces of tinfoil at the "God". If it worked, it would incinerate him.
Afterwards, the men quietly slinked away.
OOC: Take into account that this is meant to be a while in the making. I'm just skipping over the prep period, so your guy could have a sudden attack of paranoia.
I'm not going to godmode - if you feel anything at all is too unlikely, feel free to edit, cut, and mutilate, though people coming with something as unconventional as tinfoil is unlikely to be caught. Then again, the escape is the hard part. I'm having them quietly leave the building, or panic with the crowd. "Consumed by holy fire" just seems so much like Divine Intervention to the untrained eye that it probably would break his rule (he'll be fried...) and his power forever.
I've checked - if all 10,000 men flash their tinfoils, it will send 30.902138 (recurring 8) kilowatts of energy Overlord Desciver's way. That's a LOT.
It is unannounced publicly to avoid the possibility of being suspect.
Got the Idea from two of Arthur C. Clarke's short stories - "A slight case of sunstroke" (involves 50,000 bits of tinfoil on a sunny day) and "The Light of Darkness" (involves "Divine Intervention" [a high powered laser] to destroy [blind] one who is believed to be a god)
Ok, Hakurabi, that's ridiculously stupid.
Why the hell would tourists go to a military dictatorship?
They wouldn't.
And why would a military dictatorship with so many enemies allow tourists?
They wouldn't.
Again, I point to the advice of that other guy.

As acting president of the UDF, Emperor Alexander I will throw UDF support to Dracun Imperium in it's right to take care of it's internal affairs as it wishes, and if needed, will call upon the Risban City Pact to bring UDF military support to our allies in Dracun Imperium.

Ordinarily Gorkon would offer the aid of military resources in light of these threats, threats motivated simply by the fact that this particular leader knows how to establish an efficient method of control -- however, I think Overlord Desciver should be able to handle the current threats on his own.

Royal Triancian Ship George Halley, MSA-15 (Marine Ship, Assault)
"Commodore, message from command."
The commodore turned from his scanning of the sea outside of the bridge, to nod, and accept the message from the Petty Officer. "Thanks son." The Commodore of the Triancian Fleet looks to the paper for a millisecond, before adding, "And get me some coffee. Black." He resumes scanning the paper. As he moves toward the end, a scowl appears on his face. Finally, he swears under his breath.
"What the hell does Command expect me to do, send divers to look at the fucking hull numbers of each sonar contact I come across?" The Petty Officer, back with the coffee, looks puzzled at the Commodore's behavior. "Sir?"
The Commodore waves a hand dismissivly. "Never mind. Send a response to command. Tell them I'll try, but if those Mondoth ships wanna be safe, they keep away from my damn battle group."
And such a message was sent, and forwarded to the Mondoth Government.

I guess you're right.
I think I might just keep that idea... But now I just have to think of some way of getting them in. That's the only hard part, I guess, since Tinfoil is NOT going to be discovered.
And yes, Arthur C. Clarke is a good author.
I guess you could use some sort of diversional assault, but that would make him suspicious - same goes with any terrorist attack.
The thing is, you need to take him out is a way that will not make him a martyr. Just shooting him or blowing him up is not going to help, as his followers will just go around rampaging. Same goes with war. Blinding him might work, as might getting him hit by lightning.
Wait a minute... I think I've got it!

ooc:Hakurabi nice attempt at your first attack, and very original but yet seemingly impossible in a military dictatorship.
Mondoth say what you will you landed without even planning it out with me! You didn't even attempt a way in. That and almost of the "heretics" have been killed or in hiding no one would be going with you. My people are so maniupulated they have become fanatics. From now any post you make no matter what it is IGNORED by me. Next time try contacting me.
IC:Telegram to our allies
We thank all of you for your temendous support durring these troubled times. If you would ever require the need of Dracun we will be there to lend our hand
Overlord Desciver
Trinicia
You will not be harmed if you do not pose a threat to the security of my subjects. This is all we have to say
Overlord Desciver
Meanwhile in the various Dracun Zones throughout the Country
People chanted the name of Desciver. They believed more then ever that their "god" would keep them safe from any harm or threat. They yelled his name in praise and temples of the Zeus were destroyed in order to bring about Desciver's temples. Desciver watched from his balcony laughing like a maniac. Everything was going to plan. Soon nothing would stand in his way....
OOIC: Allright, I tried being reasonable, I tried to explain, but some people are just to damn ornery for there own good. as long as its well rp'ed a military invasion hardly needs permision, you have every oportunity to react REASONABLY and declare the effects of my operation, in no way have i violated any rules written or implied. if you continue I will not hesitate in leveling the fearsome weapons at my command against you.
IC: Effective immediately a full scale trade embargo is in effect, We will not hinder any unarmed ships or vessels not carrying supplies of a military nature but ships from The Nine and ships carrying military equipment or supplies to the dracun Imperium will be halted or destroyed by submarine elements of the mondothian fleet.
(In the civilian secotr I produce much oil/oil products, if you at all rely on these {if you're subjects enjoy heat, electricty, cars and whatnot} Then you will in all likely hood be a wee bit uncomfortable as the prices for said oil and oil products will increase)
Furthermore, any proposed or declared allies of the Dracun Imperium will also cease recieving comercial goods and supplies from The Nine.
To triancian fleet;
Understood, our submarine assets will warn you directly before attempting to enter your vicinity
To Bormain Imperial fleet;
You have violated a Mondothian Military exclusion zone, please leave the area immediately or face reprecussions
2x Author class supply/tender ships and 1 Nanticoke class heavy Aircraft carrier have entered the area but will remain in international waters for the time being, any hostile actions taken against them is Illegal by international law and reprecussions will be dire.
OOC: You cannot officially 'declare' anything because someone ignored you. That would be like declaring war on me for saying this. Also, even if you could impose an embargo on him for ignoring you -- what's the point? He's ignoring you, he clearly stated that. Whether he will carry that through on a global nature I don't know, but it certainly means that so far as he's concerned, nothing you post here IC means anything.
And although it's not really all that wise to ignore someone for invading you, it is perfectly acceptable to ignore someone for invading you without asking OOCly -- a lot of RPers prefer structured war RPs that tell a story, rather than being an improvised competition. For this, you need to work things out OOCly first-hand. And that usually includes the initial moves.

OOC: Oh, ho, this is getting interesting! :) Though, honestly, I should get some of these custom ships everyone else has. I have the damned budget. :)
And I have to admit, Mondoth, that you would be wrong on that. Actions can always be taken before an invasion, such as destruction of the invasion fleet at sea, introducing a biological attack on the landing forces barracks, nuking the home port so nothing /makes/ it to sea. Perhaps I exaggerate, but, again, back to the punch thing.
To The Borman Empire, and it's Military Component:
Speaking candidly, I don't care how many ships you send, or of what type. My colleagues in the State Department have already made it clear to the parties concerned that Triancian forces in the area have no offense operations planned, and will only take action to defense themselves, and Triancian citizens and interests.
Let it be known, especially to the Borman Empire, that the Federal Kingdom will not abandon it's citizens in a potentially hostile country. We will remain on station until every one of our citizens chooses to leave, or we are destroyed. And neither should be looked forward to, or thought easily accomplished.
As a result of the Borman Empire's stance, I am forced to order the 9th Task Force, consisting of the 6th, 11th, and 12th Carrier Battle Groups of the Royal Triancian Navy, to deploy to the 2nd Royal Marine Expeditionary position, as well as put all long-range aircraft of the TAF on alert. These orders can, and will be rescinded if the Borman Empire sees reason, and retracts it's promise of destruction, while deploying a smaller, less threatening fleet. I leave the next move up to them.

Robert Wernick,
Triancian Secretary of Defense

REQUEST PASSAGE FOR 8 TF TO ENTER MILEX AND REINFORCE 2 RME NO HOSTILE ACTION WILL BE TAKEN RPT NO HOSTILE ACTION WILL BE TAKEN.
As the nations who will do so contact their intelligence bureaus, they'll find that the composition of a Triancian Carrier Battle Group is public, and goes as follows:
2 Jonathon VIII-class Carriers (N)
8 Newhaven-class Destroyers
6 Earl IV-class Attack Submarines (N)
4 Zeus-class Cruisers (Air Defense) (N)
3 Silo-class Fleet Replenishment Ships (Surface)
1 Mother Hen-class Fleet Replenishment Ship (Subsurface)
1 Halberg I-class Battleship
1 Franklin Vallory-class Arsenal ship (N)
Multiply that by three, and you have yourself the 8th Task Force. Though, some of the more through intelligence services might have realized that Triancia has quietly deployed an as-yet undeclared wolfpack of six Earl IV subs, to locate, observe, and, if necessary, attack the Borman Fleet.
OOC: I made that list up as I was writing. I'm kind of new at the whole 'list every bit of your forces at once' thing, so I expect and will listen to critism.
Jonathon VIII=Nimitz
Zeus=Aegis, with improved capabilities and fission power plants.
Newhaven=Arliegh Burke
Halberg I=Updated Missouri
Franklin Vallory=The Arsenal Ship, before cancellation, and with a fission power plant
The Earl IV is a custom ship, and I'll by happy to explain it's capabilites by telegram.
The supply ships are simply that, and don't, I think, need a real world connection. The subsurface one is that because it serves subsurface ships, in effect, a sub tender.
Again, I expect critism. :)

The Sergeant eye's the report carefullly....
For about a week, the Corennian Rifle's Intelligence Corps's Foreign Office had been monitoring the situation brewing near the despot's nation. And now the Sergeant, his eyes bloodshoot from overwork, just stares at the peice of paper in front of him.
"Royals gotta be sending folks everywhere, don't they...." He says with resignation, speaking around the cigerette between his lips, before picking up the phone, and relaying the messege up his chain of command...
And thats how it happened.
TO: Dracun Imperium, and her allies.
CC: The Triancian Government, and any nation's she seems fit to pass.
FROM: Corennian State Department
Being brought abreast to recent events and the looming cloud's of war flowing slowly in on the horizon, the Corennian government wishes to express that it will do everything in its power from keeping the battle from escalating. However, we respectfully request that the Dracun Imperium, and its new head-of-state allow free passage to the following coasts of any refugees and foriegn nationals resideing among her borders.
Our navy has dispatched two of our hospital ships, as well as 4 Hunter-Class Frigates in her defense, do be placed under the administrative command of the Triancian Commodore in the region, under the direct condition that they be used in only support of non-hostile actions.
Deliberations are on-going in the Corennian Senate's Defense Fuctionary on whether to provide military support.
<END TRANSMISSION>
Secretly, an ecrpyted messege is sent to the Triancian Commondore.
FLASH FLASH FLASH
TRNSPNDR 45-A271, CDS CONRAD (SM-457), 1 BT, 3 PLT, CR DETACH.
While it may look like a mass of jibberish to most, the Commodore should be able to interpret it as a sub will be travling with the ships, running quiet. Carrying a platoon of Corennian Rifles.
High Command would like to issue a general, friendly, advisory to all of the aggressive parties, that anyone making unprovoked aggressive movements against the Dracun Imperium or the Bormon Empire may force us into reconsidering our diplomatic stance towards you. We have no allies, but the Bormon Empire is on good terms with us as far as we are concerned.
You are clearly the ones in the wrong here. You openly admit to establishing a naval force on the doorstep of the Dracun Imperium, and frankly I would be surprised if the leadership of Dracun didn't interpret this as a hostile act. Your unnecessary interference is over a sovereign matter which is none of your concern. I would advise those parties involved to allow this situation to simmer down into nothing -- by removing your forces from the area. Regardless of whether they are in international waters or not, and regardless of whether they are either 'defending your interests' or 'watching the situation develop'.

The Corennian State Department would politly like to remind the Gorkon government, and all involved governments, that Corennia has only dispatched a medical taskforce to assist with the recovery of Triancian citizen's in the soverign nation of the Dracun Imperium, as well as any refugees.
Although the Corennian government stands firm in its position, that the Imperium's head-of-state does not have the right to sovergnly slaughter his own people, we wish to avoid hostilities.
However, negotiations are underway in the Senate Trade Fuctionary to cut all economic ties with the Imperium in protest of these acts.
The State department would like to reinterate, once again, that our forces are in the area simply as a defensive measure, and we are on a humanitarian mission. We implore the involved governments to respect the Geneva convention and allow us to conduct our operations without incident.

The Triancian Government does not wish to engage in hositilities. though we stand ready to defend against attack. In order to pervent any misuderstanding, it might be best to clearly explain the Triancian position.
As per the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, The territoral waters of a country extend to 22 kilometers, or 12 nautical miles, off of a countries coast. As Triancia still recognizes the Imperium's soverignity, it shall respect this territory. It will not impede the movment of any ship in the area, exculding a small defensive peremiter around the fleet, and will not enter the Imperium's waters or land, unless otherwise ordered.
We will only give them such orders if Triancian nationals are found to be endangered by any Imperium's actions. They may also be deployed in a non-hostile manner to extract Embassy staff, should the Triancian government decided to cut diplomatic relations.
As to the Borman Empire, judging by yours and the Imperium's statments, we assume your ultimataum is still in effect. The 9th Task Force is still on route. If the situation is different than this, the State Department request that you contact our government immedaitly.
Under International Law, we have taken no hostile action, and will take none as long as our citizens remain safe. Our forces will remain on station until all citizens have left the country, or until the Triancian government feels that the situation has stabilized enough to guarantee our national's relitive safty. We will /not/ leave our citizens to the whim of an opressive govenment, no matter what spectre of war is threatened.

Royal Triancian Ship George Halley, MSA-15 (Marine Ship, Assault)
A Sergeant of the Royal Triancian Marines steps out on to the deck, and stares, in mild confusion at the Hunter Class frigate across from the ship. He turns to his left, and sees a Petty Officer. "Hey, PO!" With the PO's turned head, he points to the ship. "When the fuck did we get one of those damn things?"
"Ain't ours." The PO responds. "It's a Correnian ship. Hunter class, I think."
"The Millies?" The Sergeant responds. "When did the fucking millies get here." He waves a hand. "Nevermind. I'll find out myself. But my buddies weren't fooling. Those Hunter's are BIG.
OOC: Mondoth, I'll have to agree with Gorkon on this. What you have to understand is no one's aganist reacting. I'm reacting, too. But, like Gorkon put it, you invaded Darcun without consulting him OOCly, or, at the very least, allowing him to react to your invasion perpearations. My advice to you, if you want to continue in this RP, is to take up a dialouge with Darcun by TG, and see if he'd be gracious enough to stop ignoring you.

The ultimatum is not in effect. We were going to act on it, but it seems Dracun is ok with you staying there. Then it seemed as if he wasn't, so it is withdrawn for now.
And Dracun's territorial water may be more than that. I know I and many others consider the U.N. a complete joke, and thus pay no heed to it. There proposals are not good enough to wipe my ass. Our territorial waters extend 20 nautical miles off the coast. In addition to that we have taken the entirty (sp?) of the Med. and Black sea as well as the red sea.

We suspected that we might have been in error on the status of your ultimatum. The 9th Task Force has halted, and been ordered to recall to a midpoint between the 2nd Expedtionary and their home port. They will remain there until this current crisis is resolved.
Your opinions on the United Nations are your own. However, Triancia recognizes the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea as valid international law. Again, any attacks on Triancian Forces in recognized international waters will be taken as an act of war.
The State Department wishes for me to inform you that we still hope for a peaceful resoultion that will satisfy all parties. And I agree with them. Mostly.

The 20km limit sea territories as referred to in the United Nations 'Law of the Sea' resolution is imposed upon members of the United Nations only. Those of us who are not members of the United Nations can have borders as far out to sea as we are capable of holding. The pathetic institution means nothing to those of us sensible enough to keep our countries out of their sweaty clutches. There is no official international law outside the United Nations. We do as we please. If it steps on the toes of others, we deal with it accordingly.
Assuming that United Nations law applies to all nations, regardless of membership, is not a wise thing to do -- it can lead to diplomatic incidents such as this one. Actually following United Nations laws when you are not a member of the United Nations is down-right foolish, as they will serve nothing but ultimately weakening your capabilities.
We are pleased that you have decided to act responsibly in this instance by recalling the bulk of your taskforce, however. This situation may not be so bad as it first appeared.

I apologise greatly; curious as to the zealousness with which you stick to these border limitations which you, as a non-member, are not bound to, I checked files on the Dracun Imperium. I just learned, to my total amazement, that they have decided to throw away their sovereignty and become a member. I am quite shocked by this; I thought the leader of the Imperium was an intelligent man who valued control, hence why I never once thought to check.
Gorkon will now support your recognition of the 20 kilometre-distance territorial borders of the Dracun Imperium, and may be forced to reconsider our own diplomatic stance with anyone who attacks them whilst they are in international waters.
I must call a meeting of the Council of Generals to discuss Gorkon's position regarding these events; I am rusty regarding UN legislation, but I do believe the Dracun Imperium has broken several of the UN laws they have deigned to submit to during this whole fiasco.

Corennian 4th Temporary Detachment, Formation Baker:
The waves lapped gently against the lower hull of the the Corennian Defense Ship (C.D.S.) Celter Bay, the lead ship of the formation. The Skipper of the ship looked across at the battle group massed by the Triancian forces, then back to the ships under his partial command. 4 other Frigates and the two hospital ships sitting the pre-perscribed distence off the coast as ordered. For Frigates, the Hunter-classes were big, and held quite a bit of fire power, two in the modualer set up for anti-submarine operations, one set up for anti-air operations, the other two scanning the surface for approaching ships.
"Ain't this quiet." He mused quietly, chewing on the end of his Cigar. He was hoping for some combat to lead him on up the ranks to Commodore, but he knew the sailor's under his command wanted to avoid it at all costs. So did those damned politicians. And it looks like they we're going to get there way. The Triancian task force had been recalled, and Gorkon seemed to be cooling down.
The 4th General Battle Group of the 2nd fleet was already on stand by though. Several formations of frigates and a few Carrion class Medium Carriers... scuttlebutt was going about that they might be there to form a blockade.
Still, the Captain thought, even the politico's back in the Capital wouldn't conduct an act of war. It was probably just a precaution.
As had to be those troop transports sailing with the Group.

Emperor Marshall I and Grand Lord Gregory discussed the situation. The office of The Emperor was filled with advisors.
"We saw through this cynical ploy long ago. Trying to anger the community-it's obvious."
"Yes my Emperor."
"Gregory, with so many fools in the world, there will never be peace. These humans, always bickering... always seeking more power-and the ultimate weapon."
"Yes my Emperor. They are fickle. Humans have many flaws, and a lust for dominance. But it is in their instincts, so you can't blame them."
"I know... but there are some who take pleasure in the destruction of overs. We only destroy what threatens our existence-but they destroy whatever comes in their way."
"I suggest we simply make no contact with the Dracun whatsoever from here on My Emperor , thus to end any chance of conflict. If they attack us we'd crush them with ease anyway."
"I agree. Now leave me. It is time for me to meditate."
"Yes my Emperor."
With that Gregory bowed and left. The Advisors left, not even saying word.

Do you expect a conflict to arise from this, or should we focus our intelligence elsewhere?

"The 9th Task Force has stopped here, Mr President." Wernick said, indictating a spot on the projected map in the almost empty cabinet room. "We estimate that we can keep them supplied, fueled, and ready to head back to the combat zone for 8 months. After that, we start having problems supplying our other deployed fleets. We would have to pull the ninth back to port."
President Stanton nodded pensivily. "See if you can't get together a rotation sechudle together with the elements of the ninth. Bring one in to refuel, then another and another, and so on. But, that's only a temporary soultion at best." He turns to the SecState, Garner. "Any ideas, Tim?"
The SecState shook his head. "Sir, the only thing we could do at this point is evacuate our embassy with as many of our citizens as possible. That's assuming, of course, that the 'great' Lord Deceiver doesn't shoot down our choppers on apporch."
"He does, I'll be sure to flatten a few of his buildings." Wernick replied, grimly.
"And by doing so, we lose legitmacy in the international scene." Garner countered. He turned back to the President. "Sir, I hate to say it, but he holds an awful good hand at the moment."
The President noded again. "Bob, tell me that you have some sort of inteligence assests in the area. I've already got the RIS doing a survey of their capabilites."
Wernick shurged. "I can check, but I doubt it. Country hasn't showed up on our radar until recently. And it'll be damned hard to get someone in now."
Stanton sighed. "Well, nothing ventured, nothing gained. We have to attempt something. Have a plan ready in 48 hours.
Wernick nodded. "Yes, sir."
OOC: I'd like to know if Dracun would allow the possibility of any of Triancia's intelligence assest to be in-country, or be somehow able to enter it now, to gather info.

The Director-General of the the Intelligence Corps Foriegn Office scrawled his signiture on the document for some mundane satilite scan, standing up from where he was leaning against the chart table, adjusting his tie, done up in the regulation four-in-hand knot, askew to one side.
Picking up his cup off coffee, he takes a slow sip, to avoid burning himself, his bloodshot eyes closing for a moment. The office had been scrambling, before turning his attention to the pile of satillite pictures on the table, looking up, "Captain... these are going to the War Council?"
"Yes Sir. Those are the beaches, as of...." Captain Wilkes checks his watch, and then moves around a pile of papers, "Two day's ago. I don't think anyone made it."
He shifts the pictures around.... "And this one, Captain...?"
<OOC: Choose your own adventure! Okay, not really, but following the lead of Triancia, I also want to know, that if Corennia tossed a couple spy sattilites over the Dracun Empire, what would they find? Specificly, Gas Chambers, CBR (Chemical, Biological, Radiological) Weapon sites? Or just military assets. Or would Dracun have the resources to toss a couple planes into the atmosphere, and try to destroy Corennia's satillites? Jamming? Clever hiding?>

OOC: Seriously Dracun, the CFA has zero tolerence to genocide, and unless this is a closed thread, or something else I missed, be prepared.
It's not genocide. There's no genocide to speak of. This is routine excution of dessidents, which is not genocide in the least. Learn what the term means, please.
I am reading the back pages, but could someone please give the low down on what's happened?
And yes, I do believe that that player of two posts was the same person, and anyone who cheats in such a manner I will not play with.
