Harald Gustavsson, President of Bonstock, sat at his desk, looking over reports of the day. All of a sudden, a man in a military uniform walked in. "Sir, our country is under attack. We need you at the war room now."
Sure, he knew it was all a wargame, but he acted seriously, as if it were no drill. "What are the incoming forces?"
"Roman Republic. They have a fleet approaching Bonstock now. Follow me."
The two walked downstairs into a top-secret military bunker below the Presidential Suite. A giant, electronic map was on a table in prominatly in the middle of the room. A young woman greeted Lord Harald.
"Sir, 10 Roman aircraft carriers with escorts and transports inbound."
"Have they declared war?"
"Yes."
"Ask the Senate to assemble. We'll declare war as well."
"Yes, sir."
"Where are our carriers?"
"We've got ten in port, and ten on patrol around Bonstock."
"Tell them to assemble at this point, and then launch a strike against the enemy. Also, do we have any bombers ready?"
"We've got a wing of B-2's on alert, as usual."
"Good. Have two squadrons of B-2's launch a missile strike against the Roman Fleet, and the other go after Roman Republic itself."
"Yes, sir!" She went over to send a message to the subordinate commanders.
The Bonstocknian carriers recieved the message, and soon set a course for a rendezvous point about 500 miles away from the Roman fleet, ready to launch their strike as soon as they got together. Sixty B-2s lumbered into the air. Fourty of them, loaded each with 18 JSOW missiles, flew in the direction of the Roman fleet, prepared to launch their missiles at aircraft carriers and arsenal ships. The remaining twenty flew on towards Roman Republic itself, as sattelites scanned for targets.
Sure, the missiles were actually flares whose launching would be recorded on a computer to compute damage, but the crews treated it as if it were a real war.

"Lord Harald, we have cargo planes and choppers inbound near Skogby! Intel indicates hostile SOFs."
"Scramble all avaliable fighters and put Skogby air defense forces on full alert! Take down those choppers and planes!"
"Yes, sir!"
At least 60 Patriot missile sites, supported by 120 Sergeant York AAA batteries, began forming a ring around Skogby, in case any hostile aircraft went by. 60 F-22s were scrambled, and began engaging the inbound units. Fighter patrols began around other major cities as AAA and SAM batteries were put on full alert.

"Get SAM batteries to engage all hostile units. Tell fighters to concentrate on transports, and then get more wings in the air."
"Yes, sir."
Some 540 more F-22s took off, and began engaging enemy close support planes and transports with AIM 120 missiles and 20mm guns. SAM and AAA batteries continued to fire on Roman planes.
Meanwhile, five Mechanized Infantry Divisions moved into the area, forming a ring around the Roman drop zones.
83 F-22s were downed in initial combat.

Bonstocknian planes continue, yet again, to fire missiles. Half of them engage the enemy JSFs, using short-range AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles, and even their cannons to engage the enemy. Meanwhile, the rest get up close and personal with the enemy transports, and start blazing away with their guns.
Patriot missile sites start locking onto enemy planes, and fire off dozens of missiles. AAA batteries find enemy transports and start engaging.
Railroads unload another Bonstocknian mechanized division, bringing the total to six. The 1st, 4th, 30th, 96th, 123rd, and 190th are the first divisions on the scene, grouped as the IV Corps.
450 Apache helicopters, flying from nearby airstrips, fly in low over the landing zones, shooting up their enemy with chain-guns, rockets, and heat-seeking missiles. Meanwhile, 450 Crusader howitzers take up positions near the LZs, and commence a great barrage of artillery. Nearly 900 Leopard II tanks prepare for their attack, to be supported by infantry in 1800 CV-90s.

ooc: look up a bit... i already posted losses for aircraft. as for ground troops, i'll do that now.
ic: 10 Nimitz aircraft carriers took advantage of the preoccupation of the Roman carriers, and launched a strike. 600 F-35s took off, and went flying towards the enemy fleet, loaded with anti-ship missiles. Their instructions were to aim first for enemy carriers, then for enemy transports.
Meanwhile, five more divisions are loaded up on trains, and prepared to move towards the combat zone. A full scale mobilization starts as troops began going towards their rally points, preparing for battle.
The Leopard IIs charged forward as the artillery bombardment lifted, firing their 120mm guns at enemy tanks and emplacements. CV-90s followed, firing 40mm chain guns at anything that survived while infantry piled out to start out with their M-4 carbines and SAW machine guns, shooting at any pockets of resistance the tanks have left behind. 34 Leopard tanks are seriously damaged or destroyed in the initial rush, showing just the ferocity of combat. About 135 Bonstocknians have been "killed."

In the skies over the Roman fleet, at least 60 of the wave of JSFs were downed in the first wave. But the Bonstocknians had the initiative. While the enemy planes were still scrambling from their carriers, two insignificant squadrons of 12 F-35s each closed in for the kill: the Roman carriers. With their ordinance, 2 Mavrick missiles apiece, they closed in for their kill. As they ran in, four of their ranks were downed by enemy ships, but they were just close enough to fire their missiles, and even some guns, at near point-blank range, right into the Roman aircraft carriers. But, of course, with danger imminant, they did not bother looking back to see the results; their focus became on getting the hell out of the combat zone.
Meanwhile, over the Roman landing zones, the Bonstocknian Air Force continued its battle to defend Bonstocknian skies. F-22s continued to engage the enemy, losing 56 more of their own in the process, but the great dogfight continued, a grand spectacle for the Army grunts on the ground. They shot their missiles and guns at the enemy, maneuvering like falcons, locked onto their prey, soaring high in wait, and, at the right and perfect moment, striking their prey, their great talons piercing the hearts of their airborne rivals. Meanwhile, KC-10 tankers began flying just around, in case anyone ran out of fuel. Airbases below were an invaluable resupply point. As for the Romans, they would need to search farther for such pleasures.
On the ground, Bonstocknian soldiers slog it out in the great forests that surrounded Skogby. They knew this terrain well, many of them having been raised right around the area. Where to hide, where to drive a tank, all were common knowledge to nearly everyone. The tanks continued their charge, having surrounded the enemy, pushing them back to their abandoned parachutes, where they would be slaughtered en masse.
ooc: no offense, but I've launched a major offensive here. My guys are taking big casualties (look carefully at all I say, you'll find them). Twenty one of your soldiers have died, to my 135 at least. Last time I checked, battle between modern armies was never so one sided when the two combatants had such evenly-matched technology.

On the ground, Bonstocknian Leopard IIS tanks looked on as the enemy advanced. They halted a bit, consalidating their ring around the enemy landing zones, finally scouting out targets. Meanwhile, Apache targets flew back in low, and simulated firing TOW missiles at the enemy armored formations, joined by the simulated fire of 120mm cannons from the Leopards.
Enemy infantry' attempt to flank was countered by CV-90s as they fired their 40mm chain guns into the enemy advance. Using the lush forest foliage as cover, Bonstocknian infantry dismounted, and threw grenades at the enemy infantry. 60mm Mortars and machine guns added to the Bonstocknian defense.

Aboard Bonstocknian Nimitz-class carrier Admiral von Stueben
"Admiral we have four enemy carriers out from our last attack."
"Good. What weapon did we use, anyway?"
"F-35s loaded with Maverick missiles."
"Make a firm note that that should be an accepted method of enemy capital ship destruction."
"Yes, Admiral."
"Also, get a new strike into the air, at once. Small and subtle, not the 600 plane charge we had a few minutes ago. But let's be smart about this one. I want two squadrons of 12 aircraft each in the air, controlled from a E-2 Hawkeye and supported by two EA-6 aircraft."
"Aye, sir. I'll prepare the briefings."
"In the air as soon as possible."
"Aye, aye."
Flight deck
A single, propeller-driven E-2 Hawkeye waited for the signal to take off. The Air Boss on the deck gave an order. Ground crewmen stood away, and started the countdown. Then one of the controllers gave a thumbs up. The pilots responded with a salute. The engines were started. The Air Boss got on the radio. "Stinkeye 1, you are cleared for take off."
"Roger," was the response. The carrier's catapults did the rest, and the brilliant plane flew into the blue sky.
"Stinkeye one airborne."
Two EA-6 Prowlers, electronic countermeasures aircraft, were brought to the catapults. "Blinder one and two, clear for takeoff." They were launched skyward. Then came the strike package. Twenty four magnificent F-35s, the great battery of the Bonstocknian Fleet, took to the skies to join their brethren.
The E-2's crew of five scanned their radars for anything unusual.
http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/images/e-2c-FLYBY.jpg
They noticed the Roman fleet, and its surviving carriers. "Stinkeye one to Blinder flight. Start electronic countermeasures."
"Roger." The two EA-6 Prowlers started their ALQ-99 Tactical Jamming Systems up.
http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/images/ea-6-001.jpg
The Roman fleet would, hopefully, be denied of its radar for a few crucial moments. Just then, the crew of the E-2 recieved a message. "Stinkeye 1, strike package arriving at initial point."
"Roger. Commence attack."
The twenty four F-35s, flying just 50 feet off the ground, got within range of the enemy carriers.
http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/images/jsf96_5091.jpg
Their Mavricks locked on to the carriers, and fired. The F-35s turned for home, flying fast and low to avoid detection. Hopefully, that would dent the enemy.

"Are reserves ready?"
"We have a fresh division just unloaded."

150 fresh Leopard IIS tanks were flung into the enemy breakthrough, striking at anything that thought it might escape. They were followed by the usual 300 CV-90s, which consolidated the gains of the tanks. The artillery and aviation units, however, would have to wait, needing to be unloaded from trains in Skogby.

ooc: uh, didn't I just throw in a fresh division at your breakout area? And didn't I just launch a major strike against your naval fleet?
ic: Bonstocknian tanks and soldiers in the breakout area retreat slowly, giving the Romans the impression that they are free of encirclement. Exactly the Bonstocknian plan. Yet another division is unloaded from trains, and arrives in the combat zone. Meanwhile, on the flanks of the breakout, a division on either side moves in to slice the breakout forces from the drop zones.
In total, 600 Leopard IIS tanks, 1200 CV-90s, 300 Crusader artillery pieces, and 300 AH-64s surround the forces in the breakout, sealing it to its fate. The two divisions on either side of the neck of the breakout smash through weakly defended areas, speeding ahead to link up as the following CV-90s decimate enemy infantry with their 40mm chain guns. At least 50 Leopard IIs are out, but the rest link up on either side, thus dividing the Romans in two. Then, abruptly, the armored fists turn in on the forces in the breakout, while infantry forces consalidate the gains. All 300 Crusader howitzers lob 155mm shots by the thousands at the Roman breakout, as AH-64s, their cielings protected by new waves of F-22s flying CAP, pour missiles, rockets, and chain guns into anything that got through. The tanks rush in to quell the existance of the Roman breakout forever.
Meanwhile, at sea, the Bonstocknian planes drop low, and return to their carriers, as their missiles streak towards the Roman carriers.

Remember, your naval forces didn't expect my incoming wave of fighters, as I had EA-6 Prowlers in the air jamming your radars. A dirty trick, but the US does it in RL, so I'm fine to do it here. Also... add a bit more detail into your post. Here:
ic:
Near the Roman SF forces
A small squad of a dozen or so soldiers was patrolling along the tracks. They had in their company four dogs, who could smell an enemy from miles away. A foul scent of a Roman would send them barking and their masters hunting. Exactly as Lord Harald had planned.
They walked along, when, all of a sudden, a loud explosion was heard in the distance. The dogs barked ferociously and turned in the explosion's direction. The sergeant in charge got on his radio.
"Battalion HQ, we have hostile contact at 060, 4 miles out of our position."
"Roger. We've got a task force on the way."
At a nearby airbase, four UH-60 helicopters took off, and headed in the direction of the Roman SFs. They carried infrared detectors which could pick out a human in the forest well. They scourered the area for any hostile contact. Suddenly, one of the crewmen picked up a small crowd of people walking around. He turned to the pilot, and said, "Sir, I have an unidentified contact. No known friendly forces or civilians in the area."
The pilot got on the radio. "We have a hostile contact at our position."
The rest of the Blackhawks flew straight over to the area, and followed the Roman SF's in their desperate bid to escape or hide. But the Blackhawks were too fast, and their sensors too good. 48 Bonstocknian counter-SF forces rappelled onto their position, and surrounded the enemy. A psyops broadcaster repeated "Roman, you are now surrounded. Throw down your weapon, place your hands above your head and we will treat you well. Resistance will lead only to death."
Meanwhile, engineers rush to the location of the blast to repair it before more trains come.

ooc: getting better. Not quite there yet.
Above the Roman SOFs
An E-3 Sentry patrolled overhead, silently scanning for any disturbance, namely any incoming waves of Roman aircraft. Dozens of enemy and friendly planes twirled around over the original drop zone, continuing to kill eachother as the grunts slogged it out with rifles below. However, there was one sector of the combat zone that may have been unnoticed, save four UH-60s that had been dispatched there to pick up a Roman SOF patrol.
A lone, watchful eye was all it took to spot incoming Roman choppers. "Colonel," the operator said, looking at his console. "We have bandits inbound on this position."
"Dispatch a flight of F-22s and clean them out," said the Colonel in response.
"Roger," was the response. A radio call was soon given out, and four F-22s were on their way, flying twice the speed of sound to make it to the location of the inbound choppers. Arriving just in time, they fired their AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles at the choppers at close range, and then closed in to finish the job with their guns.
Meanwhile, on the ground, the soldiers closed in. Yet sniper shots threw them off. Three were killed outright, two more seriously wounded.
"We're taking casualties!" a Sergeant frantically yelled on his radio.
The four UH-60s suddenly turned in the direction of the Roman SOF's, providing suppressive fire with mini-guns and rockets. The Bonstocknians fired M-4s and SAWs at their enemy, hoping to kill the SOFs, or maim them so bad that they would need to surrender.
ooc: CVN 21 is immune to jamming? News to me. Thanks. *goes off pestering his shipyards for a few dozen of them* As for the EH-60's, I must not have noticed them. My bad, I'll get back to it.

Meanwhile, with the Romans leaving, the Bonstocknians patrol around, looking for any remnant or "dead body" which might have some intel value.
At sea, two Bonstocknian carriers are hit by Tomahawk strikes, and are out, along with two destroyers, a cruiser, and a frigate.

Bonstocknian Presidential Command Bunker
2300 Hours
Lord Harald looked furiously at the map table. A giant, electronic map flashed lights, blue for friendlies and red for hostiles, showing the locations of all combatant forces.
Of course, he knew exactly what would happen. His boyish face, which had just barely developed a faint beard, gazed inquisitivly, as a child gazes at his toys. A great exercise, the President of Bonstock thought. This was what he'd prepared for his whole life, what he'd ascended to Valhalla and returned again for. To fight the enemies of the Federal Republic, no less. He wore the uniform of a Field Marshal, as had his father years before, but remained attached to his soldiers, as had his father again. He'd just returned from an inspection of the front, where he'd waited out an artillery barrage with the soldiers in the trenches before returning to his headquarters. But it was only urgent news that had drawn him back; he'd have prefered to stay with his men.
A slim, young, and short looking woman in the uniform of a colonel approached him. Her dark hair was tied carefully behind her service cap, and her dark eyes were shaded by her visor. She spoke with an accent, a slight but quite attractive one, as she adressed her commander. "Lord Harald, recon sattelites report the formation of an enemy carrier strike."
"Colonel Lin, what are the inbound planes and destination?"
"An advanced force of 4 EA-18 Growler electronic warfare aircraft, with 6 F-35s, heading towards Port Yuko."
"They want to take our air defense and command bunker offline."
"Sir," interjected an old officer, in the uniform of a Marshal of the Air Force. "Air defense forces are prepared to engage the enemy."
"Negative. Let them think they've taken our air defense offline, then give them the surprise of their life as they go for our command bunkers. As soon as our radar officers report any signs of enemy radar jamming, I want a hundred Raptors in the air over Port Yuko, and all SAM and AAA sites will be free to engage."
"Yes, sir!"
He then turned to another officer, in a uniform of a civil defense official. "Sir," Lord Harald commanded, "Initiate air-raid defense plans."
"Yes, sir!" was the quick response, before he ran off.
Port Yuko, Bonstock
2350 Hours
The great city gleamed its luminous lights from afar, on the tip of its powerful penninsula in the ocean. The great harbor was filled with ships of every description, from mighty aircraft carriers to humble fishing trawlers. It was near midnight, but the city bustled with life. Automobiles honked their horns in unison with the flickering of the lights of the skyscrapers. One mighty building stood prominant: The Bank of Bonstock building, the gleaming monument of Bonstocknian capitalism, a giant, 150-story elliptic cylander that pierced the sky with a tall radio spire that reached into the clouds. Around it stood dozens of smaller but equally significant tall buildings, great upward rectangles forming a skyline recognizable all over the world. And even that was not all; for miles stretched the little homes and factories, which eventually faded into the great coniferous forests and majestic mountain ranges of the Bonstocknian penninsula. A sight truely for all to behold and gaze upon with dumbstruck awe. It was peaceful at this time, romantic almost, brilliant and beautiful at the same time, the fusing of natural beauty with human architecture. But there was something not right. An enemy silently lurked in the distance. They thought they'd jammed Bonstock's radars, and thought they were undetected: They were wrong.
From the great international airport of Port Yuko, and many surrounding airports and airbases, came the dark fury of the Bonstocknian Air Force, the defenders of the pristine beauty of Port Yuko. One hundred F-22 Raptors flew directly in the path of the enemy. They locked their radars, and the ambush began.

ic:
Bonstocknian Presidential Command Bunker
Colonel Lin ran up to Lord Harald. She said, "Sir, enemy helicopters have infultrated SOFs near Flodbro."
"How the hell did they get in? What about our patrols?"
"I don't know."
"Set up round the clock F-22 patrols around all major cities and coastal areas, and mobilize all coastal artillery and SAM batteries. I want an evacuation of Flodbro pronto. And I want helicopters in Flodbro to scramble, and use whatever methods avaliable to flush out the SOFs."
"Yes, sir!" She walked off, and handed orders to another officer.
Meanwhile, a C-130 took off from Flodbro International Airport. It flew over the SOF drop zones, and dropped a MOAB on the enemy SOF positions. At best, the SOFs would be eliminated. At worst, their drop zones would be turned into a muddy quagmire, hindering any further drops. Helicopters got into the air, with AH-64s using infrared sights to scout for the enemy and UH-60s dropping in dozens teams of 8 men and two dogs each, in hopes that the dogs would pick up the enemy while the SOFs would eliminate them.
The Presidential Bunker recieved a radio signal that enemy forces were contacted at 0130 hours.
Meanwhile, at sea, ten new aircraft carriers relieved the other eight carriers on duty, which went back to Port Yuko to resupply. A stike was quickly launched against the remaining six enemy carriers. Six hundred JSFs, with complement of 40 EA-6 Prowlers, 40 E-2 Hawkeyes, and 80 S-3B Vikings. Certainly enough to overwhelm anything the enemy could put out at sea. They were joined by 120 B-52 Stratofortresses, and 120 shore missile batteries armed with truck-mounted quadruple RBS-15 mk.4 missile launchers. All the services had their hands in Lord Harald's operation, and all worked as their training had taught them for years previous, though this was a mere continuation of that training.
The Hawkeyes directed the strike, allowing the Prowlers to jam enemy air defenses. Even though any CVN-21 would be immune to this, any escorting ship would be vulnerable. Once all AEGIS cruisers and destroyers were blinded, the strike package flew in.
Like the Valkyries of old, they swept in. From a safe distance, the JSFs, Stratofortresses, Vikings, and shore bound trucks launched their complement of RBS-15 missiles, sending a total of 2800 missiles streaking towards the enemy ships. Sure, they were only electronic pulses that would be recorded on computers for the purposes of casualty calculations, but the crews did as they were trained to do.

If it does work, then most of the town is defended by a single division, the 5th Infantry (Mechanized). The 2nd Brigade (Mechanized Infantry) is currently to the west (left) of the North-South Highway (Called but not labelled Highway 5) while the 3rd Brigade (Mech Inf) is taking positions to the East. Divisional Artillery, Aviation, and Support units are in the business district of the city, along with the 1st Brigade, 5th Infantry Division (Armored). In the industrial district, four mechanized divisions are forming up, while SAM and AAA sites are manned all over the city and F-22s perform CAP operations.
So... that ought to help.
IC: The RBS-15 missiles continued to fly towards the enemy. A spectacle for all to see emerged, as enemy 25mm guns tried to shoot the Bonstocknian missiles down. The missiles came with a preprogrammed set of manuevers designed to evade fire like that, but still some would be shot down. The others continued towards their targets, the enemy carriers.

Headquarters, 5th Infantry Division
Business District, Flodbro
Brigadier General Fredrick Greyr, commander of the 5th Infantry Division, looked at his command map. Enemy units were being identified moving into suburbs.
"General, our battalions have picked up enemy movement in the eastern suburbs," interjected one of his advisors. "Higher authority instructs us to counterattack immediatly before reinforcements arrive."
"Good. Send the 1st Brigade in to surround the enemy, and get infantry support from 3rd Brigade. Make sure they don't enter the city."
"Yes, sir"
A communication was quickly sent to all tank units of 1st Brigade, and infantry units of 3rd Brigade. Normally, such an offensive would be preceeded by massive artillery and air bombardments, but for now that was impossible, as enemy units were on Bonstocknian terrain. So, crews manned 150 Bonstocknian Leopard IIS tanks, and without a whisper of warning, they were off to the enemy location.
As the tank treads glazed the streets with black rubber, dawn broke over the Penninsular Mountains. A brilliant ray of sun cast itself upon the tanks as infantry from CV-90s of 3rd Brigade began to follow their armored compatriots. The advance was swift and silent. Not a word was spoken nor a shot fired as the sector of enemy activity was surrounded, and cut off from any supply or reinforcement. All over the city, SAM and AAA sites were manned and ready, while F-22s patrolled overhead in case of an enemy attack. The noise of the jets masked that of the tank treads as they rolled to their attack.
Thus the assault began. A few lone tanks probed in for enemy activity. When the enemy was spotted, the tanks shelled them as infantry came up in support. Any anti-tank weapons were sighted by the infantry, and the infantry aimed their SAWs and M-4 carbines at the gunners from shelter behind and inside buildings. Meanwhile, and machine gun nests and snipers were spotted by the Bonstocknian tanks, which levelled their mighty 120mm cannons to meet them. From all sides, they advanced and continued this simple formula, hoping to eliminate any enemy activity as other divisions became operational.

Port Yuko may sound Asian (i can't remember why I chose that name; it just randomly popped into my head). As for Flodbro, Skogby, Zecrostrand, etc., those were made up later and were all inspired by Swedish roots. Like Zecrostrand means "Zecro Beach," being a beach resort town right near Zecro. "Bergpasstan" means "Mountain Pass," as it is in the mountains. "Havklippa" means "Sea cliff." "Skogby" means "Forest village," and "Flodbro" has sometihng to do with a bridge. As for the camoflouge systems, they work only by night, right? Dawn just broke, if you read my post carefully.
ic:
Flodbro Suburbs
Two tanks were out instantly. Soldiers, their ears covered by communications devices and their eyes by sunglasses, are distracted a bit by the enemy flashbangs, though some are smart enough to pick them up and throw them back at the enemy before they bang. They also throw a few frag grenades, distracting the enemy as the tanks mow them down and knock out enemy machine gun nests with their 120mm cannons. Meanwhile, squads of infantry search out enemy Javelin missile emplacements. When one is found, the nine men in each squad open fire from its flanks, hoping to silence each Javelin once and for all.
Forests near Skogby
As dawn began to break over the forests of pine, the great dagger of Bonstocknian might was heaved. During the night, engineers dug emplacements for tanks and IFVs, trenches that would be quite useful in defense. The tanks and infantry took a back-seat for the moment, settling into their houses for some sleep. Unfortunatly, their sleep would be short lived. Behind the lines, all of the Bonstocknian Crusader artillery guns rolled up to their firing positions. Each of the hundreds there fired off hundreds of shells, sending tens of thousands of shells raining on the Roman positions. In the air, as F-22s patrolled for anything out of the ordinary, 120 B-52s flew over the Roman positions, and carpet bombed them with thousands of dumb bombs. The tanks and infantry prepared for one last assault to finally crush the enemy, as psyops brigades came up, set up towers, and began to broadcast messages like, "Surrender, for there is no hope."
At sea
Hundreds of missiles continued to aim their fury at the enemy carriers. While some were shot down, the rest continued on. Some were bound to get through, just enough perhaps to send every last Roman carrier to Davy Jones's Locker.

Entrenched Bonstocknian soldiers were still able to see the Romans in their camo systems. Sure, they may blend into surroundings, but any person with eyes could discern the presence of an object, especially one as big as a person, heading towards them. Rifles and faces don't float in the air, as well. Finally, to bring the point of invisibility's uselessness home, dozens of high-powered searchlights were brought up. Though it was still the day time, the lights would go around. The sky behind the enemy wouldn't be illuminated, but the enemy would. In that way, Bonstocknian machine gunners were able to quickly spot the enemy. They poured 40mm, .50 caliber, and rifle caliber ammunition into the oncoming enemy, as Cursader artillery pieces, miles behind the entrenchements, continued their barrage.
Meanwhile, the B-52s return, and continue their carpet bombing of Roman positions. Tens of thousands of 500 pound bombs rain upon the enemy.
Flodbro Suburbs
Just as the enemy fires RPGs at the Bonstocknian tanks, Bonstocknian infantry, firing at the enemy from the side, fire off their M-4 carbines, yet again, aiming at the heads. Just as near Skogby, tanks mount powerful searchlights, pointing them right at the enemy, illuminating them against a darker background. Bonstocknian infantry and tanks had their targets right there.
At sea
Again, some Bonstocknian cruise missiles are shot out of the sky, while others continue on to the enemy carriers. Evasive manuevers are taken to avoid ship fire, helping the chances of getting though. Half of the missiles are shot down, while the other half plowed towards the enemy carriers.

ooc: I fired 2,800 missiles, if you read my post correctly. RBS-15 missiles, to be exact.
by the way, a note on your "camo" system: Nothing within modern technological capabilities can make a soldier fully invisible. Perhaps Objective Force Warrior or whatever has something to that extent, but what they must mean is something that will blend colors into the background. Whatever the case, nothing in modern or post modern tech can eliminate the outline. Even with your advanced camo, people can still see you if they are paying attention. Especially if they're moving. In that case, you'd have to be blind not to see them.
If they are supposed to make a soldier fully invisible, I don't think they would qualify as modern tech, and would be deserving of a nice ignore cannon round.
Also, in the Skogby forests, my Crusader artillery pieces are well behind the forward entrenchments, which surround your positions.
By the way, any casualties from my artillery and my bombers?
IC:
Skogby forests
Three hundred soldiers were killed by the Roman artillery barrage. Though catastrophic, replacements were soon on the way, carried by train to the Bonstocknian positions. The line held.
Meanwhile, Bonstocknian Crusader artillery pieces fired again at Roman positions. For a third time, 120 B-52s flew over the Roman positions and carpet bombed them.
Port Yuko
Incoming fighters were quickly spotted by Bonstocknian radars. Hundreds of F-22s flew up from nearby airbases to engage.
Flodbro
Radios blared all over. "God dammit we're taking fire from the balconies!"
"Get an airstrike in!"
A few F-22s flew overhead, and droped JDAMs on the enemy-occupied buildings, hoping to dislodge them.
Perhaps this would not be the best simulation, as no damage would really be caused by the bombs, but it was still treated like war. Meanwhile, 30 Bonstocknian soldiers and 5 tanks were out.

Actually It's post-modern but using modern tech like tanks. It's not impossible, but the invisabilty only happens in complete darkness because the uniform is black. The pixel camo breaks the outline when in crouch or prone. Have you seen the pixel camoflage used by the Marines. Even ask many Marines that the pixel camo breaks the outline of the soldier in dense forests or somewhat urban. then explain the deal with ghillie suits.Heres a website on pixel or digital Camo:http://www.hyperstealth.com/CADPAT-MARPAT.htm And yeah there were casualties in the bomb raid, it's in the Roman losses section. I've never heard or preprogramed missiles, Are they "homemade".

ooc: to stress the point and randomly harp on spelling, it's not Yoko. It's Port Yuko. With a u. Like Yukon (territory in Canada) or Yukos (Russian oil company).
But anyway, while Tomahawk missiles are perfect against nations like Iraq and Afghanistan, modern radars are actually perfectly capable of tracking it. The Russians have a new missile out designed to counter the Tomahawk.
http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/russia/s-300pmu2.htm
Tomahawks are land attack cruise missiles, while the RBS-15 is specifically designed as a sea-skimming anti-ship missile. According to some sources, it flies so low that it can't be shot down by CIWS guns. Tomahawks, even in anti-ship form, are incapable of such performance to my knowledge.
But that's just what I know. And again, skip lines between paragraphs. It looks better.

Port Yuko District Air Defense Command Center
Lord Harald looked at the map, showing incoming fighters, along with interceptors and SAM sites. He turned to his intelligence officer, a young woman, Colonel Lin. "What enemy forces are inbound?"
"Sir," she began with a characteristic Chinese accent, "we have thirty Roman JSFs and one hundred Tomahawk missiles inbound. Sixty F-22s have from three airbases have already taken off, and are now engaging the enemy. Also, we have a ring of seventy-two BAMSE missile sites engaging enemy missiles and aircraft."
Just then the screen went blank for a moment. Lord Harald said, "They've taken out a radar site. Do we have others?"
"Yes, but I'm sure they're being targeted."
"Get an AWACS in the air, now." Suddenly, an explosion, or rather a simulated blast, was heard right above. "On second thought, get the Presidential Command Plane airborne now. That will do."
"Yes, sir!"
Meanwhile, 72 BAMSE missile sites (ooc: http://products.saab.se/PDBWeb/ShowProduct.aspx?ProductCategoryId=270&ProductGroupId=289&ProductId=635 ) began engaging enemy Tomahawks and planes, along with 60 F-22s.

Skogby forests
Bonstocknian machine gunners had a field day shooting enemy airborne troops as they ran towards the trenches. .50 cal, 40mm, and even SAW and M-4 rounds poured in. As the enemy got in clusters to help increase survivability in the face of machine guns, Bonstocknian soldiers with 81mm mortars rain mortar bombs on the charging enemy. Bonstocknian soldiers with Stingers stayed put and contiued firing from their trenches, while enemy Commaches and missiles destory eight more Bonstocknian tanks, and 15 more Bonstocknian soldiers "die." Meanwhile, a renewed artillery barrage ensues, as hundreds of Crusader artillery pieces rain shells on the enemy.

A Bonstocknian tank is disabled and four Bonstocknians "die" when the explosion occurs. Bonstocknian soldiers see the engineer running, and fired their rifles at her as another F-22 flies overhead and drops another JDAM on the enemy-held buildings.
Port Yuko
Two of three Bonstocknian airbases are temporarily put out of action by the strikes, causing the deaths of dozens of airmen on the ground. Six SAM sites also succumb, and 7 F-22s are shot out of the sky.
However, Bonstocknian soldiers at a checkpoint intercept the cars with the Delta Soldiers. They ask for a barcoded identification card, and do a quick eye-iris scan. The eye iris scan is forwarded to a computer to check through all the eye irises of all citizens and legal aliens in Bonstock. The "civilians" are also reminded that there is an evacuation order in place for all unnecissary civilians due to the air raids, and that they would not be allowed in anyway, but they were held in place until the results of the eye iris matching scan came in. If negative, they would be taken into a detention center. If positive, they would be taken to a civilian air-raid shelter to wait out the bombing.
Meanwhile, at the undamaged airfield, a plane takes off. A Presidential Command plane, where the President, Lord Harald, would be embarked.

Twelve more Bonstocknian tanks were knocked out, but another division was quickly mobilized, and readied for the front. 150 fresh tanks and 300 IFVs full of soldiers were sent in to cover any gaps in the rings. Two more divisions were being mobilized, and men were flowing in to take their positions. Only a matter of time. The port of Flodbro would hold fast.
Port Yuko
Finding that the enemy civilian dressed Delta soldiers had eye iris scans that did not match up with anything, Bonstocknian soldiers play a quick guile. The men are told they will be taken to an air-raid shelter, only to be taken to a small house. Doctors come in to give them a "quick checkup;" the Bonstocknians say it is to make sure no diseases are carried into the air-raid shelters. The doctors check all body cavities for any possible suicide device, and then send the men over to the soldiers. Outside, the cars are impounded, and searched for weapons and documents. The soldiers are led to a bunker, where they are each instructed to sit on a chair. Quickly, more soldiers come, and tie them each to their chairs. One by one, they are interrogated by the Bonstocknian Special Services.
Above, escorted by 60 F-22s, the Presidential Plane flew around. Radio traffic was heard from it, giving the instructions for 20 divisions to mobilize in Port Yuko at once. Very little radio traffic could be heard coming from the Presidential Bunker, or many military sites in Port Yuko for that matter.
Meanwhile, 60 more F-22s performed CAP over Flodbro. Enemy planes were sighted, and the Bonstocknians fired their AMRAAM missiles to down them.
Skogby forests
Pressure was being felt by the Bonstocknian forces. Fifty tanks were out, and hundreds of infantrymen were also. Yet, the Bonstocknian Army had more tricks up its sleeve. Another division of 15,000 men was thrown into the battle, taking the positions of its decimated comrades. Hundreds of Crusader artillery pieces thundered yet again, shattering the sky with their thunderous roars, as hundreds of F-22s whooshed overhead, flying around dropping bombs on the enemy forces below.

ooc: What beaches are you hitting? Skogby? Flodbro? Port Yuko?
Flodbro
Bonstocknian soldiers and tanks patrol around, after having lost a dozen or so more soldiers and at least one more tank, pursue any enemy forces that managed to escape the pocket. A new division is mobilized, and takes up positions along the port. Overhead, F-22s patrol around, ominously waiting for enemy forces. Radars look out, seeing the enemy form up over the carriers. Quickly thinking, an Air Force colonel ordered four Bonstocknian F-22s out to engage the enemy. Of course, this would not win; but it would delay the enemy.
Zooming close above the sea, the F-22s prepared for their assault. A suicidal fighter sweep, it was, but perhaps some good would come of it. They flew in, and saw the enemy formations on their radar. Their missiles locked on, and fired. They did this repeatedly, dogfighting until the last of the four were out.
Skogby
Bonstocknian soldiers, realizing that Romans are in their trenches, quickly take their M-4 carbines and fire at the enemy from the sides. Two hundred more are out in the savage close-quarters fight that ensues.
However, behind the lines, Bonstocknian signals stations triangulate the position of the Roman airborne command post in Skogby. The division that had just previously held the Bonstocknian lines is sent forward, yet again. A quick, but brutal barrage from 75 Crusader artillery guns and 75 AH-64 Apaches precedes it, though 15 Crusaders and 20 Apaches are out before they scoot back to their base. Just then, 150 Leopard IIS tanks charge ahead in one large column, piercing a small point on a frontage measured in meters, like a knife piercing one point. At great cost, they push forward towards the Roman command center, followed by 300 CV-90s loaded with infantry. 50 of them are soon lost, but the tanks, unduanted and shooting at enemies while still moving, race on to the Roman command post, to surround it and eliminate it. More divisions prepare to apply their concentric pressure to force the Roman airborne troops out.
A single division quickly takes up positions near the Roman beaches, digging in and awaiting the new Roman assualt. The divisions engaging the airborne troops prepare to join them, and finally oust Roman Republic from Bonstocknian soil.
Commands furiously go out from the Bonstocknian Presidential Command plane over Port Yuko.

The tanks continued advancing to the Colonel's command center, with heavy casualties. Upon reaching it, they surround it, and then push in towards it. Meanwhile, on their flanks, Bonstocknian CV-90s, supported by AH-64s overhead, take up positions so that the tanks could not be cut off. At least 1,000 Bonstocknians were out in this operation so far. Overhead, 60 F-22s engage the Roman planes.
With the Roman command hopefully surrounded, eight divisions surrounding the Romans, with 120,000 men in total, launch their sheer weight of numbers against the enemy. 1,200 Leopard IISs, 2,400 CV-90s, 600 Crusaders, and 600 AH-64s ride in, closing in on the enemy from all sides. As the operation progresses, casualties mount to almost unsustainable levels. 15,000 men were out. Hundreds of Bonstocknian tanks and helicopters were also. Even if it wasn't real, it was still horrific and brutal.
The division holding off the Roman marines holds fast with heavy casualties.

Bonstocknian divisions conduct mop-up operations, sweeping around for any left-over enemies. But the railroad station is hit, hindering mobilization efforts in Port Yuko. Engineers and civilian laborers work feverishly to get the bridges and stations back online.
Below the sea, near the Roman carriers
Silently, a dozen Seawolf submarines gathered in a wolfpack. On their silent running, they could just barely get to see their objectives: the remaining Roman carriers and transports. If they were knocked out, perhaps then the Roman assault would be repelled. That was in order format to the Admiral commanding the wolfpack.
A dozen periscopes raised just above the waterline, just enough to see the Roman transports participating in the new invasion. All twelve submarines carefully selected their targets, aiming for LHAs and LHDs. Then, each of them fired off four Mk.48 torpedoes. Not looking to see the result, they turned about and quietly sailed back to Port Yuko, under the waves as ever.

Airstrikes in Port Yuko...
The orginal 180 and now 177 Hornets, JSF and UCAV flew over the Capital and targeted SAM sites, Radar Stations, and Military Bases. Their targets were locked on and the Jets released JSOW, JDAM, and HARM.

Dozens of tanks were out thanks to the JSOWs, their crews stewing with rage as they lumbered back to base, but the others kept on rolling, firing DU ans HEAT rounds at any enemy structures and equipment, while .50 caliber machine guns on top shoot around at Roman infantry.
Flodbro
The Bonstocknian divisions quickly responded to the attacks on the rails, while engineers brandishing weapons defend themselves when nothing is nearby.
Port Yuko, Bonstocknian Presidential Bunker
"Lord Harald," Colonel Lin said, "It seems like the enemy took our bait of the Presidential Plane. 180 targets inbound."
"Get all SAMs and AAA sites to engage, but lay off on fighters. Get them on the ground so we don't lose any more. Now, with their air cover gone from their fleets, attacking their carriers will be much easier. Get a strike online now."
"Sir, dozens of SAM sites and AAA sites have already been taken offline, and our radar is almost out. We'll need more defenses."
"We cannot spare those now. We must focus all our energy on this one attack."
"Yes, sir."
At sea
Four of the subs were unlucky enough to have fired their torpedoes last, and were out as the Roman choppers flew overhead. But, on four Bonstocknian carriers nearby, a strike was assembled. 240 F-35s of the Bonstocknian Navy were ready to answer their country's call to war. They took off, and with the bulk of their enemy over Port Yuko and Skogby, flew in to deliver the final killing blow at the enemy CV-Xs. Perhaps a mistake, but perhaps a boon, their raid was not precipitated with the usual EA-6 attack. Instead, they swooped in out of the blue, and locked their Maverick missiles onto the enemy. They prepared to fire.

ooc: where would the new airborne troops be coming from to Flodbro? Wasn't the big drop near Skogby, and isn't it surrounded? If not, then explain how you got a whole brigade with tanks and everything on the ground without running into F-22s and SAMs.
Flodbro
A dozen Bonstocknian Leopard II tanks rolled in with a contingent of infantry to silence any attempts to attack the engineers. Even under fire, the engineers defiantly continue working, slowly getting the rails back online. In Port Yuko, the same happens, as military sites are repaired by dogged engineers and laborers.
Skogby
With the enemy HQ silenced, for now, the Bonstocknian tanks swing around, like a giant hammer, upon the Roman held trenches, with infantry forces acting as the anvil. As they advance, nearly twenty five more of them are knocked out by Roman LOSAT and Abrams tanks, and whatever other missiles they have. Though reduced by half, the brigade continues its ride into the teeth of the enemy, hoping to scatter them and finally crush the pocket of airborne resistance. Meanwhile, on all sides, the advance continues, though many tanks and men are lost.
On the beaches
As soon as the Romans step outside the beaches, they encounter a vast minefield. The whole forest was littered with mines, and Bonstocknian machine gunners and missile men with Javelins and Stingers, hidden in the green forest foliage, guarded any attempt to clear them. Mortar and Crusader artillery rounds began sporadically falling on the Roman beaches.
JSF Squadron Bravo, RBS Lord Harald Carrier Air Wing
Inbound to Roman fleet
1800 Hours
Above the dark blue sea, misty clouds gathered. It seemed perfectly peaceful, just the white mist. All of a sudden, dark shadows appeared in the mist. A high pitched whoosh of a noise started. Suddenly, the figures zoomed by, jet fighters of the Bonstocknian carriers, as they flew on towards their targets.
A small squadron of twelve planes could be seen among them, flying in formation. One of them was talking on the radio. "...So I says, there's more then one way to fry a Roman."
Another shot back on the radio, "Harvey it ain't funny anymore."
The leader of the squadron got on. "All right be quiet back there and keep your eyes peeled. We're goin' in."
The planes held formation. The Roman fleet became visible coming up. Planes all over began firing their missiles, and missiles were fired at them. Explosions could be seen and heard all over.
One of the planes got on the radio again. "We got flat-tops dead ahead."
The leader got on. "Harvey, this one's yours."
Harvey vectored his F-35 over, and began his target run. "YEEEEHAW!!!" he yelled, as he fired two Maverick missiles and many cannon rounds at the Roman carrier.

OCC: The Airborne drop near Skogby were my SF soldiers. The Airborne Drop was somewhere in the middle of your Forests on open ground. Well on the post about Airborne drop. I dropped all 5 Airborne Divisions into Bonstock. A brigade is a break up of the Airborne Division. 3 Brigades makes an Airborne Division. I follow the 82nd Airborne Division's Table of Organization, because it makes organization easier. Sorry, I must have skipped the part of the SAMs and F-22 Raptors engaging my transports. I dropped all my Divisions at once.

ooc: Actually, it's usually FRBS (insert ship name). I messed up there. It stands for "Federal Republic of Bonstock Ship." Like the US has "United States Ship." No, we're not a monarchy. Lord Harald holds his title as he was the elected President.
Anyway, didn't you drop all five divisions on Skogby? How would one brigade get through my surrounding forces?
At sea
60 Bonstocknian planes are downed by Roman fire. The rest fire their missiles, and return to the carriers.
Meanwhile, below the waves, the dark and murky deep reveals shadows approaching the Roman fleets. Small shadows, too small for an actual nuclear submarine, but still manned craft. They slid under the water, slowly and silently, approaching their targets with care.
"Explain to me how the hell we're gonna do this?" one of the crewmembers in one of the craft said.
"Well," the commander's response was, "There are one of these Type 14 mini-subs for each Roman carrier and LHA, and each of them has a special operations contingent of 3 divers, whose job is to place these charges on the hulls of the ships, thereby blowing them each sky-high. These explosives are enough TNT to blow Port Yuko to hell. It will surely blast through the under keel of the ships and have them taking on water within a minute, below the waves in two."
"Dammit, you better hope this works."
"It will."
The mini-subs, their craft making no noise whatsoever, engaged passive sonars to spot their targets. Coming from deep below, too deep for a Mk. 48 torpedo, they each released their three divers, who swam up with the explosives. Each team of three placed an explosive charge at the rear hull of each Roman carrier and LHA. Then they swam back to their craft, and made their escape. Then they blew the charges.
Flodbro
Unintent on letting any of the Airborne Rangers return home alive, a whole mechanized Bonstocknian division of 15,000 men places itself dead between the Roman airborne brigade and the advance soldiers. Meanwhile, F-22s are called in, dropping JDAMs where enemy fire-teams take up. Dozens of engineers are killed, but more come to take their places. The work continues.
On the beaches
The Bonstocknians, of course, were prepared for an air attack. Soldiers with Stinger missiles aim up at the Roman JSFs as they come to bomb them. Meanwhile, machine gunners and anti-tank missile launchers prepare to engage the enemy.
Skogby
With perhaps 40 serivicable tanks still in the fight, thanks to the Roman artillery barrage, the lone brigade of Bonstocknian tanks smash right against the Roman trenches, hitting them into the anvil of the Bonstocknian held trenches. Bonstocknian infantry, following right behind, jump in with grenades and M-4s to clear the trenches of Romans.

ooc: my problem with the carriers is pure strategic thinking. If I blow those carriers and transports to bits, then your army is stranded. After that, it will be a slow and painful supply lack death for you. That's the way I fight this war.
And come on, in one strike a few posts back I fired 2800 missiles at you. Just now, each of your carriers got an explosive charge attached, that should have at least disabled all your carriers. All told, your ships are escorted by 10 DDX and ten Arleigh Burke destroyers. DDX is a land attack destroyer, and is not equipped with the AEGIS combat system needed to intercept my missiles. So, that leaves you with 10 AEGIS capable ships. An AEGIS ship can intercept, say, 60 incoming missiles. So, you would be protected from 600 missiles.
Either way, with my explosive charges, every one of those carriers ought to be out. I'll let it slide.
So... You lost four a while ago, and one more now. The others should probably be out of action, and in dire need of repair. When the repairs are done, you have five carriers I guess.
Skogby
Seeing the Romans charge, the Bonstocknians halt their advance. Machine gunners and missile launchers fire repeatedly at the enemy. 40mm chain guns on top of CV-90s fire continously at oncoming enemies, slaughtering any infantry or light vehicle even thinking of coming close. Each of them also mounts two TOW missile launchers, which fire at oncoming Roman tanks. A few, with Stinger missiles instead of TOWs, engage enemy airborne targets. The slaughter commences. The Bonstocknians start to run low on ammunition. Supply trucks come up, hoping to give more 40mm rounds, TOW missiles, and Stinger missiles to the CV-90s.
Behind the lines, Crusader artillery pieces fire off Trajectory Correctable Munitions at the enemy advance, capable of knocking out enemy tanks and killing large numbers of enemy infantry. 24 A-10 Warthogs are scrambled, and fly over the Roman charge, firing their chain guns and dropping bombs and guided munitions on the Romans.

Soldiers with Stinger missiles quickly aimed at incoming Roman choppers. Firing quickly, they sought to knock them out of the sky before mortar teams came down.
On the beaches
34 Bonstocknian defenders are killed in the Roman artillery barrage, but more come up to take their places. Bonstocknian artillery fires off a few rounds which drop more mines onto the beaches.
At sea
Four Bonstocknian submarines remained hidden, shadowing the Roman fleet. They waited, looking for their ordered targets: any Roman resupply vessel heading towards Bonstock. Spotting some replenishment ships, the four subs redied their Mk. 48 torpedoes, and fired.

At sea
Two Bonstocknian submarines are hit, and are out, returning back to base for the duration of the wargame. The others make an about face, and turn to shoot their torpedoes at the Roman subs.
On the beaches
"Take cover!" a soldier yelled as artillery explosions ringed out around them from HIMARS and ships at sea.
"Charley," yelled the Lieutenant, "get that Stinger aimed at that robo-chopper up there! It's directing artillery fire!"
"Yes, sir!" Charley picked up his Stinger, and aimed. All of a sudden, a buzzer went off. Shrapnel an 'artillery shell' had hit. "I'm hit, sir! I'm out!"
"God dammit, give me that!" He picked up the Stinger launcher, and aimed it at the VTUAV through the trees, and fired. Medical teams came up to pick Charley up and take him to 'graves registration.'
The Lieutenant looked up, seeing five Blackhawks flying overhead. He yelled on the radio to positions in the back. "God dammit, shoot those hostiles!"
He saw Roman soldiers on the beach activating their goggles through his binoculars. "Goddammit they'll see us with those." Then a buzzer went of. He was hit in the shoulder. "Damn!" he said as he ducked down below a bunch of sandbags, and picked up his M-4. Then he jumped up, picked a target, and squeezed the trigger.
In a clearing just back, a platoon of four CV-90s, each with a missile launcher equipped with Stinger missiles, fired at the choppers along with the IFV's 40mm cannon.
All told, about 100 Bonstocknian soldiers were "killed" in the artillery attack. A battery of six Crusader pieces, using information from Bonstocknian sattelites overhead, found the positions of the Roman rocket launchers, fired back six SADARM rounds each at them. Then they quickly scooted back to a hardened shelter, to rearm and refuel.
Skogby forests
CV-90 Platoon B
Alpha Company, 2nd Battalion, 3rd Brigade, 154th Infantry Division
The CV-90 almost rocked as enemy artillery hit. Looking through the turrent, one could see Roman and Bonstocknian soldiers fight with their electronic bayonets, the victims playing falling down, making dramatic 'last gasps' of breath before 'dying.'
"Gus, keep up the 40mm cannon fire!" yelled the driver below.
"Yes, sir." He aimed at the mass of Roman soldiery, and shot continously. Then a buzzer went off. He wasn't dead, though. He looked out. "Out of ammunition," the HUD read.
"Sir, we're out of ammo!"
The driver radioed in. "We're out of ammo." He listened. Many of the CV-90s were having the same problem.
Four trucks with ammunition rolled on over. Suddenly, the enemy choppers got up out of hiding. By accident or design, every truck was hit, and the ammo lost.
Battalion Headquarters got on the radio. "Fall back!"
The entire 154th Division followed suit, their sector falling back north-east in the direction of the Roman beachhead. Soon, they made contact with the 4th Infantry Division, defending the beachhead. The 3rd Brigade of that division was bewhildered to see Bonstocknian troops falling back. The Brigade's battalions split, and the 1st and 2nd moved towards the north, along with the rest of the division, while the 3rd Battalion was pushed east, towards unoccupied beaches, finally retreating to the south, its CV-90s meeting up with the Bonstocknian 37th Infantry Division, which took up positions between the 154th's old zone and the beaches. The 154th took up positions to the north of its old positions, on a line from other divisions to the beach. A breach was opened, which would allow Roman paratroopers to link up with the Roman marines. Lord Harald, seeing this realignment from his headquarters, ordered 130 Leopard IIs of the 5th Infantry Division to attack towards the south flank of the Roman paratroopers, to push them into the opening towards the marines.
About 100 more Bonstocknian soldiers are "killed," and 30 CV-90s and 12 Leopard IIS are out.
Flodbro
Seeing Roman paratroopers disperse through the suburbs, and with a full Bonstocknian division guarding the ports and business district, the other division withdraws slightly, leaving the snipers and 60 Roman Airborne Rangers behind. Engineers continue to rebuild the railroad station in the business district, while the division defending them sends its two CV-90 brigades, with 150 CV-90s each, around the Roman airborne brigade. Speedily, they take up positions around the behind of the Roman brigade's position, and the CV-90s attack it from behind. Each CV-90 is equipped with a 40mm cannon, and each has been modified to have two missile launchers on the side of the turrent, able to fire TOW or Stinger missiles. From the southwest, they rush into the Roman positions.
General look fiercely at the surveillance photos showing Bonstock satellites revealing every move Roman Republic made he muttered to himself "this war is going to be won or lost in space". The order came out to satellite control to destroy all Bonstock space technology the whole communication room was in shock how could they possibly even dent the Bonstock space power with a few rag tag discount satellites ? The team leader pondered what to do but all he could think of was to use the microwave satellites to destroy the launch facility's and any thing else that could reach into space then he would use all his surveillance satellites (4) to destroy all the enemy space power with there space to space defensive rocket's.
At sea
With the plan in motion the Admiral of the Jamum fleet began preparing his troops for a land assault Jamum's leader had given him personal order's to get a foot hold in Bonstock territory and if he failed he would be given an AK and be sent to the frontline himself with orders to return after he had conquered Bonstock or to not return. The admiral had collected collared gas to use on the beaches (of cause this would resemble the lethal gases that would be used) without permission this would lead to a court-martial when he got back home but he just didn't care this battle was his life.

After the retreat by the Bonstock tanks and infantry. Airborne Rangers continue firing while the others gather the dead and injured for Helicopter to arrive. Helicopter from "A" Company resupply the paratroopers and vechicles.
In Flodbro..
Enemy tanks from the rear ambush the suprised Roman Airborne Brigade. A couple vernerable vechicles were destroyed or partly destroyed.
Paratroopers form a perimeter (Like in Mogadishu) to gather the injured and the dead into trucks.
"Pick them up..easy, easy"
Soldiers in the 2nd Platoon, 3rd Company send a Scout to look over the other wall.
"I see 5 tanks."
The Scout signals the Javelin team to aim and destroy the tanks.
The team aims and fires 2 to 3 Javelin missiles at the tanks.
The Scout call for Mortar fire at the tanks. Hails of Mortars fall upon the tanks.
The rest of the other platoons engage Armor and infantry. They Call for Mortar and sniper support.

OOC: I am waiting for a reply to the space battle
at sea
The admiral of Jamum fleet postponed operations to invade the beaches whilst scuba teams began drilling into the seabed and setting up air pockets underground these would serve as bases for scuba commando's and midget submarines in the case of a naval retreat the only thing was how to cover up the noise of drilling they did this by revving the engines on all the ship's in the fleet making huge background noise especially in the case of the big battleships.

ooc: since you have now nearly 90 carriers on your side, is it all right if I up my old stats from 20 to 100 carriers? I was planning on doing that later anyway, but for right now I kinda need to, or else I'm roadkill and this is an unfair RP.
Lord Harald's Bunker
Port Yuko, Bonstock
"Sir," Colonel Lin reported, "Jamun has entered the war." She handed him a report on Jamun forces heading into the conflict area. She continued, "They've even launched sattelites to down our fleet of spysats."
"I am not about to let a ragtag third-world basketcase destroy our fleet of observation sattelites," Lord Harald said, the anger apparent in his turqoise eyes. "Activate defensive lasers to engage enemy missiles, and get a couple of anti-sattelite munitions into the air."
"Sir, an ICBM loaded with ten small guided warheads could easily take them down."
"Good! Get four of them into the air at once, and aim at all Jamun and Roman spy and killer sattelites."
"Yes. But also, sir, Roman and Jamun reinforcements are coming in to reinforce their positions. 82 enemy carriers are inbound."
"God damn. 82? Mobilize the entire Bonstocknian Navy for this; we're gonna need serious firepower. I want 80 reserve carriers activated now."
"Sir, those old carriers are low on repair, and many are being used as tourist attractions. The crews will be poorly trained reservists."
"Well, get them in the carriers as soon as possible. They have basic enough training, they'll learn the rest in combat."
"Yes, sir. But moreover, we've got more news from the front. Although the enemy now has a route from the beaches to its airborne positions, there are no significant airborne thrusts in that area."
"Prod them. Get more tanks in and push them into the beaches."
"All right. And also, we have more news from Flodbro. The attack from behind was a good success. Only four CV-90s are out so far, and the enemy is confused and dazed."
"The anvil is in place, now let the hammer fall. Send in the armored brigade of that division, and send the Romans packing.
Ports all across Bonstock
Airliners fly in the reserve carrier crews to take up their posts in the carriers. Acting double time, the carriers are set to put out to sea within a week, hopefully.
Flodbro
With the two Bonstocknian Mechanized Infantry Brigades in place, a whole Bonstocknian Armored Brigade charges at the Roman positions from the front. A classic hammer and anvil assault. 150 Leopard IIS tanks charge boldly through the streets at high speed. As soon as they make contact with the enemy, the continue advancing while spraying anything Roman with .50 caliber and 120mm shots.
Skogby area
The Bonstocknians at Skogby had now completely withdrawn from a large path that lead from the Roman airborne positions to the beaches, linking up with Bonstocknian forces defending the beaches to form a ring around all Roman forces. Around the Roman airborne positions, a renewed offensive ensues. The eight mechanized divisions in place charge from all directions at the Roman airborne troops' salient. Nearly 600 Crusader artillery pieces rush out of their hardened shelters into fireing positions. Each of them unloads a barrage of 100 guided rounds, and then scurries back to their shelters. On the heals of this barrage, 1200 Leopard IIS, with infantry close behind, charge from all three sides at Roman held positions, the infantry shooting at any anti-tank emplacements while tanks shoot at other tanks and machine gun emplacements. The tanks continue their charge even in the face of enemy fire; they leave behind pockets of Romans that the infantry try to make short work of. There is only one place for the Romans to flee to: through the gap, to the beaches.
Coastal areas around Bonstock
Knowing that Roman invaders are on the loose, Bonstocknian defenders take their new tasks seriously. Hundreds of thousands of engineers descend on all undefended coastal areas, erecting stockpiled prefabricated bunkers, laying mines and barbed wire and anti-tank obstacles, and erecting SAM and AAA sites. Reserve troops pour into these new defenses, nearly 100 divisions being mobilized to do this, while 50 more serve as an armored reserve incase of an actual landing. In the air, over coastal areas and major cities, squadrons of 12 F-22s each perform almost non-stop CAP, while the rest of their wings, 60 in total, prepare to go in and help if the situation gets rough. Radar sites maintain a constant vigil, searching for any incoming Roman aircraft or landing ship, and waiting in case their services are required. A string of at least 1 SAM battery with 6 Patriot missile launchers for every miles of coast is established, and in each major city 72 launchers are in place at all times. Though a costly move to build, the new Fortress Bonstock would not be breached.
At sea
The news of bonstocks defences brought a grin to the admirals ravaged face this was what he was waiting for 5 Iowa Class and 10 Kombayn Nikoladze Class Battleship's began shelling the beach defences. Aurora’s were called in to find engineers see what there doing and then send there co-ordinates to the fleet then they would be bombarded by shells and cruise missiles. The successful completion of this plan meant that 40 Iowa Class 10 Kombayn Nikoladze Class Battleship's were sent to the fleet with the same orders.

OCC: Yeah and your satelites can intercept missiles. As if thats fair enough for me. I'm bringing more force to clean cut you military and finish it. You can have 100 Carriers come in. I got to say, you got a lot more dermination, If I destroy your whole military, I hope to see a guerrilla force come up. You can't send guided rounds with out a designator. Unless you use SADARM
IC:
In Flodbro...
The Bonstock tanks that rush in destroy 5 7-ton trucks with injured and 2 LOSAT HMMWVs. Airborne Rangers call upon the Javelin Anti-tank teams of Weapons Squads.
"Aim at the speeding tanks. My men will provide Supressive Fire."
"Roger that sir."
6 Weapons Squads with 2 pairs of Javelin Launchers fire 12 Javelin Missiles at the incoming tanks. LOSAT HMMWVs fire LOSAT missiles at tanks and Abrams fire SABOT rounds at tanks.
The Brigade Avaition HHC or C2 calls in Support for the 1st and 3rd Brigades, 3rd Airborne. The 1st and 3rd will arrive in 15 minutes.
81mm and 60mm Mortar teams sustain fire mortar after mortar.
Platoons rush towards the walls of the Suberbs.
Bonstock Waters near Zeerostrand and Bergpasstan...
The 10 Carrier groups and 4 Marine Corps Carriers launched and prepared 60 aircraft each, and composed of Super Hornets, JSF, and UCAV. That 840 Aircraft launched toward the beaches, Zeerostrand and Bergpasstan. All of them equip with JSOW, Sidwinders, Designator pods, and AMRAAMs.
"We have our orders..We have to destroy Airports, Fortesses and blow the hell out of the Cities."
"HOOAh, to that LT."
http://www.ussyorktown.com/yorktown/hornet.jpg
Skogby...
All the LOSAT HMMWv were shot dead in their track by the suprising Bonstock Divisions. The troubled Paratroopers dragged 100 unsecpected shot Paratroopers to be helped by the medics.
The Lt. Col.'s Battle staff inside the trench while begining calling in for CAS support in their sector and the rest of the 5th Airborne.
"Who the hell's Idea to fight in the Forests." said one Battle Staff to the other.
"Yes, 3rd Airborne Brigade...What the problem?" replyed the Admiral's Staff
"I need the rest of the 5th Airborne and CAS now."
"The Navy near Zeerostrand and Bergpasstan will arrive in 10 minutes. I will split the at least 100 Aircraft to help you."
"Roger that."
The Battle staff soldier told the Lt. Col about the support.
The Airborne Ranger Mortar team sets up mortars in the trenches to direct fire on the incoming Force.
15 BlackHawks of A-Company, 2nd Helicopter Battalion arrived and hovered to drop ammo to the soldiers.
The Air-Ground Task Force, 1st Helicopter Battalion (10 Comanches) which was with the Paratroopers hovered and fired 20mm rounds and fired the last remaining rounds of Hellfires and Hydra rockets. The Weapon Operator of every Comanche designated targets to near by Artillery.

ooc: Do you honestly think you can destroy my whole military, let alone occupy my country? Still, anyway, we should wrap this up. Come Saturday, I'm on vacation for a week, and won't be able to RP.
Jamun, where are your beaches?
Granville-sur-mer Radar Facility
100 miles north of Zecrostrand
"Sir, we have a carrier borne wave forming up off the coast."
"Tell the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th Fighter Commands to get airborne right now!"
"Yes, sir!" A telephone call was sent to all those commands, instructing the commands to get airborne.
SAM sites braced themselves, and aimed skywards. At least 600 batteries of 6 Patriot missile launchers each were mobilized between the Bergpasstan and Zecrostrand, right in the path of any attempt to attack Bonstock.
Directed by Bonstocknian radar stations, a total of 960 F-22s, each with 6 AIM-120 air-to-air missiles, got airborne, rallied up, and went in a direct wave towards the inbound Romans. Perhaps the largest faked airbattle in all history was about to get underway, and the Bonstocknians had no intention of losing it. These were highly trained pilots, veteren officers unlike their conscript enlisted counterparts. A few had seen action as early as the White Tundra war, many years ago. All their skill and experience would now be put to the test. As an added bonus, their aircraft, the F-22, was perhaps the best air to air fighter in the world. The F-35, their best opponent, was merely a souped up bomber in their opinion. Experience and equipment would be Bonstocknian advantages.
And, hearing this, 50 of the 100 Nimitz class aircraft carriers, each loaded with 60 F-35s apiece plus supporting aircraft, and each escorted by 3 AEGIS destroyers and 3 more surface and 2 submarine combatants, got underway, finally forming up in between the Roman carriers and Bonstocknian shores, forming a ring to defend against any incursion or invasion attempt. The other 50, from the other side of Bonstock, went around the tip of Port Yuko. Like a blade, a wave of 600 F-35s took off, on Lord Harald's orders no less. 240 of them had the grim task of eliminating Jamun carriers and Wasp amphibious assault ships, with waves of sixty to engage each one of those ships. 60 more were designated to blow the battleships to smitherines. 300 more patrolled over the wave, in case of an enemy aerial threat, though they were free to strafe destroyers and other escorting vessels.
Swiftly, they took off and flew to their targets.
Flodbro
Twelve tanks are knocked out, but the rest just keep coming. 138 were still perfectly intact. They carefully aimed their 120mm cannons at mortar, machine gun, and missile emplacements, and fired round after round of high explosive shot. The hammer thrust yet again, to smash the Roman brigade. Infantry advance along the flanks of the Roman brigade, ensuring no escape for it.
Skogby
Again, the Bonstocknians punched the Roman lines with their fists of tungsten and depleted uranium, eight mechanized divsions worth. 120mm shots were fired at anything that moved infront of them. Thousands of infantrymen caught a ride on the tanks, and brandished M-4 carbines, SAW machine guns, Javelin and Stinger missiles. Enemy Commanches and Blackhawks were quickly seen, and the infantrymen took their Stinger missiles in hand, got a lock with ease, and fired. Javelin missiles saw enemy LOSAT Humvees and Abrams tanks infront of them, and fired their missiles, augmented by frequent 120mm shots from the tanks. Still, of 1200 tanks advancing, 100 were now out. Upon reaching an enemy position, they just passed right on, killing everything in their path and leaving the rest to waves of infantry riding their CV-90s, of which roughly 100 were out as well. Still, they pushed on. Overhead, a new wave of 120 F-22s took to the skies, providing CAP to the Bonstocknians. With them airborne in case of an aerial threat, 120 A-10s took off, and went on a sweep over the airborne troops's positions. Crusader artillery and Abrams tanks were the priority targets, meeting the wrath of the 30mm cannons and Maverick and Hellfire missiles carried by the A-10s.
On the Roman beaches
Stinger missile sites continue firing at Roman helicopters flying overhead, and Javelin missiles continue fireing at Roman vehicles on the beach. .50 caliber machine gun nests fire at any infantry surrounding those vehicles, while 75 Crusader artillery pieces behind the lines emerge from their hiding, and fire guided rounds at targets designated by the infantry overhead, aiming especially for Roman Crusader emplacements and Abrams tanks with HEAT rounds.
Jamun Beaches
Bonstocknian pop-up bunkers seal tightly into the ground, layers of armor protecting them from all but a direct 16 inch hit. They lie in wait for enemy landing craft, while mines bob out around and on the beaches.
In space
Unhindered by enemy rockets, Bonstocknian sattelites look at the map of Jamun and Roman Republic, searching for factories, airfields, and command and control facilities.

Zeerostrand and Bergpasstan...
100 aircraft break off to help the Roman 3rd Brigade, 5th Airborne. The now 740 head off to the two cities. The Fleet splits into 2 and both head off to the destined targets.
The first half heads off to Bergpasstan. Their intial targets were: Bridges, Radar towers, SAMs and other targets. They come upon the city and switch to bombing mode. They release JSOW bombs and countermeasures.
The other half comes upon Zeerostrand. They followed to same pattens as the 1st half did.
Flodbro..
The Calling of the rest of the 3rd Airborne arrive. The Roman Paratroopers of the 1st and 3rd Brigade spot Bonstock tanks. They radio the LOSAT HMMWVs and Abrams tank to fire. Abrams fire SABOT and Chemical rounds at the Bonstock tanks.
Airborne Rangers head off to search and destroy tanks and Bonstock soldiers.
Roman Comanches pick up Bonstock tanks on their Radar. They engage by firing Hellfires, Hydra rockets and 20mm guns at them.
The 2nd Brigade gathers the remaining dead onto working trucks and gets them outta dodge.
3 Sniper positions and 3 Mortar positions were destroyed.
2 Roman Airborne Platoons search around and spot infantry around the wall.
The men set Frag, Claymore, and Plastic explosive traps. And hid in the Corners of the street.
3 Platoons Come around and view rushing tanks. the Lt. signals the men to hid into the alley and begin an ambush.
Skogby..
100 Navy Aircraftt including the 200 Aiborne CAS JSF streaked by towards the 3rd Airborne. The Firhters release 3 JSOW bombs each (900 bombs) and guided towards the Tanks and infantry and released 145 BLU-97/B submunitions from each JSOW.
The rest of the 5th Airborne arrive and brought with them the whole 1st Airborne Division.
The 3 Airborne Ranger Regiments(6600) from the 1st Airborne and the 2 Airborne Ranger Regiments (4400) put on their ghillie suits and slowly crawl near the Bonstock Infantry. Each soldier selects their target.
Mortar teams set up positions and adjust sighting by one of the Scouts in Ghillie suits.
Javelin and M240G Machine Gun teams set up emplacements behind the Roman Airborne Rangers in Ghillie suits.
2 Aviation Brigade's 3 troops of 20 Comanches (120) hid behind the trees. 3 EH-60 Quick Fix (EW) also hid next to the Comanches to provide Jamming services against Bonstock Brigades.
2 Airborne Armored with 16 LOSAT Tanks and 16 Abrams (64) stealthly hid using Camo netting and using Thermalsights and Radar to spot and target enemy Armored.
The Avenger/Stinger HMMWVs provide Airdefense.
While the 1st and 5th Airborne prepare for an ambush. The 3rd Brigade is busy fighting off the Bonstock Armored and Infantry. 6 MH-60 were hit by the Stinger missiles and crashed into the Bonstock lines. The rest managed to drop of Ammo and explosives to escape.
The Colonel's of both the 2 Ambushing Airborne Divisions began attacking. The Ghillie suted Rangers fired 3-round burst at their selected targets.

ooc: Jamum, tone down your military down quite a lot. Your population is about 180 million, and your economy is "thriving." That's way not enough to sustain the 14 carriers and nearly 1000 long-range strategic bombers you've just thrown at me. I have big numbers because my population is apporaching 4 billion and has a "frightening" economy. The US, for RL comparison, has about 300 million inhabitants, 12 carriers, and about 100 strategic bombers I believe. Plus, to add to that, they would never use all of them at once. Only six of the twelve American carriers fought in Iraq. Plus, are you gonna take any casualties from my attack on your ships?
RR: How the hell are you getting more reinforcements to Flodbro and Skogby? I've completely surrounded your forces, I hold the ports, I hold the airfields, I have hundreds of F-22s in the air performing CAP with SAMs and AAA below, this is beyond logic. It's still incomprehensible how your forces got beyond my air defense in the first place, let alone get reinforced and resupplied. I keep reinforcing my armies because I happen to control the terrain, have short supply lines, and overall have the ability to deploy more forces. That, and my forces are heavy duty armor, while yours are mere paratroopers and marines with a few missiles and a sprinkling of tanks and choppers. My forces should go through yours like a knife through hot butter until you bring in your real armor.
ic:
The Bonstocknian Air Force had found its targets. 120 F-22s dropped down, and followed the 100 Roman F-35s towards Skogby. Just before the F-35s got into JSOW range of Bonstocknian positions, the F-22s got their locks, and, from long range, fired off six salvos of AIM-120 missiles (totalling 720 missiles), while a few batteries of Patriot SAMs also engaged the Romans. Meanwhile, as 200 Roman CAP JSFs started engaging the Bonstocknians on the ground, 240 F-22s, loaded for anti-air missions, flew over, and got a lock with AIM-120s on the unsuspecting Romans. Each fire six missiles, totalling 1440 missiles streaking towards the Romans on that front alone.
But the combanation of Roman JSOWs, mortars, Javelins, and armor, with the Roman ambush, serves to blunt the Bonstocknian attack. Four divisions are taken off the line, replaced by six fresh divisions brought from Skogby city by rail. The divisions dig in again, with Crusader artillery emplacements far behind the lines, protected by the trenches of infantry with machine guns, Javelin missiles, and Stinger missiles. Tanks and IFVs are dug in so only their turrents show.
7500 Bonstocknian casualties are recorded, with material losses placed at 300 tanks, 600 IFVs, and 150 Crusader howitzers, mostly in the divisions later taken off the lines.
As this happens, from two sides of the Roman airborne division's salient, two new divisions, taken by rails rebuilt by engineers from Skogby and Port Yuko, attack from both sides at weak points recently abandoned by the Bonstocknians. Crusader artillery provides a creeping barrage, followed by spearheads of Leopard II tanks with infantry in close pursuit, while A-10s fly CAP to provide air support.
Meanwhile, in Zecrostrand and in Bergpasstan, 600 Patriot missile launchers in each city are mobilized to see the incoming threat. Radars get a lock on incoming fighters, and the missiles fire. A fist of 420 F-22s follows each formation of incoming enemy fighters, and gets a lock on them from behind, salvoing off six AIM-120s each.
Bonstocknian carriers from the other side, having launched their strike against the Jamum fleet with 50 of 600 planes shot down, go on to join up with the other carriers. A fleet of 100 Aircraft carriers now stood between the Roman fleet and the area between Bergpasstan and Zecrostrand.

The Ghillie suited Rangers continued firing at Bonstock infantry before they entered thier own trenches.
RAH-66 Comanches pop out of the trees and fire Stingers at the Raptors on their Radar. They put their aim reticule at tanks going in their trenches.
"Aim for the MBT's and Artillery."
The Comanches fire Hellfires, 20mm rounds, and Hydra rockets.
EH-60 also pop out of the trees to provide troops with Jamming services like Radar, Communications, etc.
Avenger HMMWVs pick up Raptors and Warthogs on their scanners. and fire Stinger missiles.
40 F-35 were hit by the Raptor's Missiles. The the 60 JSF engaged the Raptors by firing Sidewinders, AMRAAMs. The Completed drop of 900 JSOW was complete. 130,500 submuntions dropped onto Bonstock infantry and tanks.
The Airborne Rangers in the trenches reload their guns and RPGs and hold their positions and begin sniping.
Abrams rush in and fire SABOT rounds at tanks.

ooc: All right. I won't be able to see your Ghillie suit guys without infrared goggles, and tell me the capabilities of a JSOW. Perhaps I don't understand it enough, and you don't seem to understand the AIM-120 much either. Forty hit of some couple thousand missiles fired? Missiles with a 90% or something kill rate? Either way, you really ought to RP the logistics of your deployment, supply, and reinforcement. I said in my last post that railroads were deployming my forces and keeping them supplied. You should tell me how yours get there. You can't just skip defenses.
Just to provide a nice example, I'll invade your country now.
For now, I'll answer your last reinforcement by ignoring the new brigades until you RP sending them in. There are 300 Patriot SAM launchers around the city of Flodbro, shifting frequencies constantly to avoid jamming. In addition, 120 F-22s are patrolling overhead.
Lord Harald's Command Bunker
Port Yuko, Bonstock
"Lord Harald," Colonel Lin reported with her cahrachteristic accent, "Our offensives in Flodbro and Skogby have been made with some success, but there have been numerous setbacks. Our forces have suffered heavy casualties. In Flodbro, there have been 1,263 men killed or seriously wounded. In Skogby, this figure is almost 8,000. In addition, 60 F-22s were reported shot down after a dogfight between Bergpasstan and Zecrostrand. All of our cities are being hit; we cannot go on like this, or we'll be exhausted soon."
"The enemy is wearing us down by creating more and more fronts to add to the complexity of our operations. We must find a way to condense these operations so that our heads can go about this in a sane manner. We have, for some reason, not used our elite Airborne divisions, the 6th and 9th. These may actually be much better suited to the type of fighting we are dealing with, be it urban in Flodbro or heavily forested in Skogby. They won't let the enemy break through, though they be a lighter force. Make sure they have extra mortars, Javelin missiles, Stinger missiles, and machine guns. With these forces, perhaps we can put a dent in the enemy's ability to engage us. We will thus contain the enemy forces still here."
"Sir, enemy jamming choppers can make short work of many of our defenses. We must find a way to counter them."
"Well, tell our radar stations and communications facilities to shift frequencies. Their jammers and interceptors can only jam certain frequencies at a time. If we constantly flip around, we will be invulnerable."
"Sir, our radar crews will have to be well trained."
"They are. This is Bonstock, after all. In Iraq, shitty conscripts don't know how to track an aircraft, let alone flip frequencies at a high rate to elude enemy jammers. Here, we have a deticated, professional officer corps with paid volunteers working at our radars. This should be a simple task. However, I think the Romans themselves need a little bit of a wake-up call. If they want to wear us down with excess fronts, then we'll fight fire with fire. I want a crack Special Forces unit assembled immidiately, and reporting to us for deployment. Ten C-17s should be ready to handle them. This might cause sufficient ruckuss in Rome to perhaps get them to scale back their operation in the Federal Republic itself."
"It would be a very risky operation, sir."
"It is a risk I'm willing to take."
Colonel Lin turned about and left, her slender figure beaconing Lord Harald's eyes until the Lord of all Bonstocknians got a hold of himself and set his mind to his papers. At Skogby International Airport, dozens of commercial airliners landed, with the infantry elements of the 9th Airborne Division. They took up positions around the Roman airborne troops, relieving the belegured mechanized divisions. One, the 54th, remained behind the lines just in case the 9th Airborne's lines failed. From hidden positions in the forest underbrush, 72 105mm howitzers, organized in batteries of six surrounding the Romans, began to bombard the enemy with high-explosive rounds.
With the same detirmination, the 6th Airborne Division was mobilized by many flights of commercial airliners as well, their heavy equipment carried by train. As the mechanized forces engage the enemy, the 6th Division turns every house and establishment surrounding the Romans into an impregnable fortress. Machine guns point out from concealed positions on rooftops and in windows, along with Javelin and Stinger missiles on the roofs. Then, the mechanized divisions withdraw. Anti-tank barriers and barbed wire are set up in roads and alleys between the buildings, further completing the circle.
In the air, the F-22s continue the dogfight.
Nozomi Station Air Force Base
Central Bonstock
About 1,000 of Bonstock's most elite special operations soldiers had assembled from their respective units to join this small but well capable strike force. Their target: Roman Republic, to bring back Bonstock's end of the initiative.
They marched in their columns on the airfield, towards the line of 10 grey C-17 transport planes. Wearing green camoflouge fatigues, kelvar helmets, and black jump boots, and with parachutes, equipment, and M-4 carbines on their backs, they marched in formation to their planes, and boarded for their destination. The four mighty engines of each of the C-17s roared to life, and the planes lumbered over the taxiway to the runway.
"Flogger 1, this is tower. You are clear for take off."
"Roger. All cargo secure. Ready for take off."
The C-17s slowly went down the runway, gaining just sufficient speed as to lift off. They set their course for Roman Republic. The strike force grew. A nearby aircraft carrier launched four EA-6 Prowlers which were to provide electronic countermeasures. Fourty eight F-22s took off, followed by 4 B-2 Spirit bombers. The strike force had grown potent, and went swiftly into the abyss of Roman Republic. Lord Harald's sword was thrust towards its target.
Sattelites peered into Roman Republic, looking at major population centers, air and shore defenses, airfields, factories, and command and control facilities.

Lord Harald's Command Bunker
Colonel Lin handed Lord Harald his briefing. "Sir," she said, "Enemy forces are still not yielding in Skogby or in Flodbro."
"They devestated us with JSOW bombs, but our losses can be replaced. Now it's our turn. I want our reserve MLRS batteries activated and ready. We'll be taking the initiative here."
"Yes, sir."
"And, just to make sure we don't have any more embarrasing paratroop drops, get an E-3 Sentry or two in the air, to direct our interceptors."
"Yes, sir."
Meanwhile, all fronts
72 MLRS launchers were mobilized on each of the fronts, taken by train from Port Yuko and various forts nearby. In Flodbro, in Skogby, and on the beaches, they fired a devestating volley of rockets.
http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ground/images/mrls.jpg
Each launcher was equipped with 12 rockets, and each rocket had 644 shaped charges that would carpet the Romans with tiny explosives. Each launcher could thus take out an area of 1 square kilometer.

Lord Harald's Command Bunker
Colonel Lin again had the report. "Lord Harald," she said, "Intel has confirmed a fleet of several dozen hostile RO/RO ships headed towards Bonstock. However, they have only minimal escort."
"The enemy has many carriers here, but so do we. I was hoping to send some of ours to the Red Sea to help with invasion efforts, but that may have to wait. Have ten of our carrier and amphibious groups go out, escorting ten of our RO/RO ships, to the Red Sea to meet up with our paratroopers there. Meanwhile, get forty carriers on the inbound transports, and leave fifty more to babysit the Roman fleet."
"Yes, sir."
At sea
A small strike is assembled at the Roman carriers. With enemy aircraft engaged over Bonstock, 60 Bonstocknian F-35s from the carriers FRBS Odysseus Rex and FRBS Agamemnon fly low towards the Roman carriers, armed with two JSOW missiles and two AIM-120s each.
Meanwhile, fifty of the 100 Bonstocknian carrier battle groups split off from the main pack. Forty of them head towards inbound Roman transports, while the remaining ten make a dash for the Red Sea.
All Bonstocknian fronts
Bonstocknian activity switches to defense. The Coast Guard becomes active, patrolling and fortifying Bonstock's coasts. Miles of barbed wire, minefields, and anti-tank obstacles are backed up by pop-up turrents with machine guns and missiles. The 6th and 9th Airborne Divisions continue to contain Roman airborne troops as MLRS batteries continue firing with guided munitions, of course.
Suez Canal
0100 Hours
The armada had been stealthy and quiet. For now, perhaps, they had not been seen. All the better.
The carrier-borne EA-6 Prowlers began jamming radars in Nubia, Egypt, and Arabia, while the 48 F-22s split into flights of four each, each heading for individual targets, mostly SAM sites and airfields. Each of them had two JDAMs, aiming for SAM radars and airfield control towers.
The four B-2s follow, lumbering through the night sky, towards the town of Suez. Railroad stations, airports, bridges and military barracks became the targets of the 18 JDAMs carried by each B-2, so as perhaps to ease the way for the Bonstocknian parachutists in what may be described as the riskiest Special Ops mission Bonstock had ever attempted, even if it was for a mere wargame.
As the explosions of the bombs subsided, only one sound could be heard, the soft, low drone of the engines of ten C-17s, lethargically moving over sea and desert towards the city of Suez.
ooc: what defenses do you have around the Suez canal? It's sorta the target of my airborne ops.

The General calls Strategic Defense Command and they inform near by forces like SAMs, Naval Forces, Airforce.
Patriot Operators use the infomation sent by WORLD and use their own Radar and other services to pick up about 70 Targets and sent the info to the PAC-3 Patriots. 5 PAC-3 batteries with 16 missile were fired towards the enemy Aircraft.

"... And then I fired a missile, and he burned, baby!"
"God dammit shut up Cartan."
"I was just sayin'."
"All right guys, let's hush up. We got bogies inbound. Look like transports with escorts."
"Redneck 1, this is base. We've got reinforcements coming up. They'll handle the escorts. Shoot those transports down at all costs!"
"Yes, sir." Twenty Bonstocknian F-22s go for the C-130s, while 40 more come up to handle the escorts. Meanwhile, in Flodbro, the 6th Airborne troops, in their fortress buildings, see oncoming Roman soldiers. They fire SAW, M-4, and .50 caliber machine gun fire through carefully planned kill zones in the streets. Mortars and artillery behind the lines fire at the enemy. The 72 MLRS launchers assigned to Flodbro fire off another salvo, with guided rounds and submunitions. 12 Bonstocknians are out.
In Skogby, troops duck behind cover as grenades come in. Machine guns and mortars fire to supress the enemy.
Thanks to the work of engineers, the beaches are covered with barbed wire, mines, and anti-tank obstacles. Machine gun nests and artillery positions rest in bunkers right behind the beaches. But more worrisome to any invasion attempt were the dozens of Bonstocknian carriers, with hundreds of F-35s flying CAP at all times, just off the beaches, ready to intercept any invasion, airborne or amphibious.
Suez, Egyptian Provinces
F-22s began shooting at the enemy fighters as they got off the ground. Still, Patriot batteries took a toll. 20 of the 48 F-22s were out.
The C-17s lumbered on. They approached the Julius Caeser airfield. Two were shot down, and had to turn back. The remaining eight opened their back doors. 800 paratroopers jumped out, and opened their parachutes. They landed on the ground, and took their M-4 carbines in hand. They proceeded to take over the airbase with lightning speed.
The Bonstocknian naval armada enters the Red Sea, and starts moving up towards the Suez canal area. Ten carriers launch 24 F-35s each, to help defend against marauding enemy aircraft and SAMs.

Julius Caeser AFB
Roman Air Force Military Police ran over and found cover. Soldier peeked and fired bullets and 20mm Airbusting grenades at the Bontock SF. Military Police HMMWVs rolled next to the Military Police soldiers a sprayed 20mm rounds from the OCSW machine gun.
Air Force maintenance ground crew picked up their XM-8 rifles and Mark 23, SOCOM. Men remained on the floor to protect the aircraft. Some went to the rooftops to snipe off SF troops. Roman soldiers throw Flashbang grenades at the Special Forces soldiers.
"Hands Up..Get on the Ground..NOW!" Shouted every Military Ploce soldier.
1st Air Attack Wing...
50 Roman aircraft were destroyed. With the help of the Patriot batteries. 550 Aircraft launched Sidewinders, AMRAAM, AIM-7 Sparrow.
2 of the 1st Airborne Avation Battalion followed the 1st Air Attack Wing and fired Stinger missiles.

The Commanders of the 8 Naval Fleets and 4 MEU(SOC) discussed the plan to raid the beaches. The plan was to send in Frogmen to place satchel charges onto obstacles and send a Shore Fire Control Party to designate fire onto the beaches. They might weaken some of the structures for a well placed invasion.
The Naval Fleet Commanders suggested to give Air support, and air defense using the Crusiers and destroyers because Bonstock Aircraft are patrolling the skies.

Julius Caeser Airbase
"Keep moving!" An officer yelled as the Bonstocknian Special Operations soldiers ran towards the buildings at the airbase. They formed into squads of nine men each, each with a leader, and two four man fireteams. They carried M-4 carbines and SAW machine guns.
Outside the base, Bonstocknians set up mortars and heavy .50 caliber machine guns. Bonstocknian squads ran under fire to clear buildings, as the mortarmen and machinegunners laid down 60mm shells and .50 caliber bullets on the MPs and maintenance crews on the tarmac.
Bonstocknians soldiers went into each of the hangers and buildings. The leaders would kick in the doors, and the grenediers shot in a flashbang M249 round. The SAW gunner entered first, followed by the rifleman and then the leader. The SAW gunner shot at anything in front of him, while the rifleman covered his flank turning to the other side. This would usually take defenders by surprise, minimizing Bonstocknian casualties. Engagements were quick and brutal, but the Bonstocknians had trained long for this. Their prize, the airbase, would not elude them long.
Meanwhile the fleet offshore moved into position. 240 F-35s were launched from carriers, and they flew towards the beaches near the Red Sea entrance to the Suez Canal. Each of them fired two JSOWs on beach defenses and at any Roman ships nearby.

ic: As the C-130s approach the Bonstocknian cities, SAMs continue the fight. Patriot missiles fly up at the enemy aircraft with great accuracy. With more fighters up distracting the Roman escorts, a few Bonstocknian F-22s get within range, and shoot missiles and guns from behind at point-blank range at the large, slow, utterly defensless transports. Any countermeasures at this point were useless, as the Bonstocknian fighters poured missiles and gunfire from right behind the Roman planes.
Skogby
Sensing weakness, a Bonstocknian armored division, with 300 tanks, formed two columns of 150 tanks each. One of them attacked the Roman airborne troops from the left, the other from the right. MLRS batteries and Bonstocknian 9th Airborne soldiers provide fire support as the tanks rush though enemy defenses.
Flodbro
Seeing as the Roman airborne troops were still not yet destroyed, the MLRS rocket rain continues. More rockets from 72 launchers, each firing 12 rocket salvos with dozens of submunitions, fire to reduce the Roman defenders to nothing.
Though Blackhawks caused a few casualties, all Bonstocknian positions were equipped with Stinger missiles, and F-22s were flying CAP just overhead. Any helicopter attack was compound suicide.
Beaches near Skogby
The MLRS batteries continued firing guided munitions, aiming for Roman supply positions on the beaches. Bonstocknian machine gunners and missile defenders held their ground in their bunkers.
Julius Ceaser Airbase
Bonstocknian Special Operations soldiers were well trained to deal with ambushers. Seeing maintenance personnel trying to rifle-butt them, they already had their bayonets fixed, and thrust them into the enemy, though they were mere electronic pulses that would be recorded later. However, 4 SOFs were out. Bonstocknian soldiers start firing M203 rounds through building walls, with explosive tips to kill anything in their designated rooms. With gasmasks on, the Bonstocknians did not have any fear of gas. Seeing Roman MPs try to flank the advancing SOFs, machine gunners with M60s and snipers with scoped M-16s aimed carefully for them, and shot. But the enemy Commanches took the Bonstocknians by surprise. Twenty men were out while Stinger missiles and M-60 machine guns were fired up at the choppers.
Red Sea
Bonstocknian planes fly low to avoid ship launched SAMs. They dive down, and fire their missiles at enemy defenses on the beaches.
Just then, 10 LHAs and 20 LPDs arrive near the port city of Suez. From Bonstocknian destroyers, a salvo of 200 Tomahawk missiles. Meanwhile, 100 LCACs race to the shore, loaded each with a Leopard IIS tank and two squads of 9 Marines each. While Tomahawk missiles land on enemy defenses, they reach the beaches and unload their cargo into combat.

Two of the Roman C-130s managed to escape. One flew over Bergpasstan, and its MOAB took out the local railroad yards. A large industrial area is wiped out in Port Yuko. In both cases, Bonstocknian engineers work doubletime to get the infrastructure back together.
Radars spot the carrier planes as they take off. Bonstocknian F-22s are scrambled to intercept, though only 60 were sent up. SAM sites got a lock on the enemy as they flew above.
Suez Theater of Operations
A Bonstocknian carrier is crippled by the Roman missile strike, and in bad need of repair. Four Aegis surface combatants are out. Bonstocknian cruisers and destroyers fire back Tomahawks and RBS 15s at the oncoming enemy fleet.
On the beaches, the Bonstocknians rush up to the seawall. The tanks are quick to aim for the machine guns, and fire 120mm shots at the shore bunkers. Engineers land to clear minefields and defenses while Bonstocknian tanks concentrate and surge through the defenses, establishing a good beachhead for reinforcement.
At the airbase, the Bonstocknian paratroopers continue their rampage. Though many mortarmen have been killed by Commanches, a few of them continued to simply fire at the Roman troops. Barracks become primary targets. At least 56 paratroopers were now out. Many in the squads were killed by sniper and grenade fire, but most began taking cover and firing SAWs and M203 grenade launchers at the enemy.

Suez Theater of Operation: Beach Landing Zone "Greenland"
The beach was in chaos after 100 Bonstocknian soldiers were killed by Claymores and snipers and 10 tanks were destroyed. A wave of 150 AAAVs land on the beach, and their soldiers go out to aid the tanks. At this point, the Bonstocknian force splits. 45 tanks and 100 AAVs, supported by infantry, engage the Romans head on from the beach. 45 more of the Leopard IIS tanks take advantage of the Romans' preoccupation with the other Bonstocknians, and, supported by 50 AAAVs, pushes off of the desert shores, to attack the Romans from behind.
Julius Caeser Airbase
The Bonstocknian airborne troops were being badly mauled. At least 50 were out, and the casualties were yet mounting. There was talk of abandoning their attack, though many wished to stay and fight, and thus draw fire that would otherwise be used against the beaches.
Over the skies of Bonstock
To avoid being targetted by ship-borne missiles, the Bonstocknians did not venture far off of land. They only intercepted the Roman fighters in an epic dogfight, high over the forests near Skogby. Upon finding the Romans coming, they locked on, and fired AIM-120 missiles to destroy them from a distance.
Below, on the ground, Bonstocknian soldiers rest, though they were alert. Sentries manned machine guns in Flodbro, Skogby, and the beaches, while many Bonstocknians took the opperatunity to take a quick nap, their rifles close by. Of course, to keep the enemy on edge, platoon-sized patrols screened the no man's land between the Romans and the Bonstocknians. Scattered mortar and artillery shells were fired on the enemy. Save that, all would be quiet, for now.

3 Roman Naval Fleet intercepting Enemy Fleet..
With the enemy fleet alive. The Commanders of all the 3 Fleets ordered 5 SSN Seawolf, and 5 NSSN Virginia from each fleet to begin unrestricted Submarine Warfare.
Destroyers and Cruisers fired 200 TASM, Harpoon ASM, and Mk. 48 Torpedoes.
The Naval Fleets needed quick relief, because the 4th Squadron will take long to come. So to respond to this dilemma, 40 SH-60S Seahawk were launched.
Over Roman Skies...
The 1st Air Attack Wing before heading back home to a new base in Palestina. They checked for enemy Aircraft coming their way.
Julius Ceaser Air Force Base..
MPs moved forward 1 foot every 3 minutes, checking the corners using FLIR at every Corner.
Snipers and Scouts kept an eye out for enemies. Other Snipers in the Northern Part of the Base kept firing at the Bonstock Paratroopers.
All 10 of the Comanches were out of Hydra rockets, but had enough Ammo to fire their 20mm Gatling guns.
Trench Warfare in Skogby..
All was quiet in the Roman Trenches and Bontackian trenches. At a distance, helicopters were firing their Gatling Guns, Aircraft bombing, mechanized fire and Infantry fire. But at the Roman Positions, Ghillie-suited Snipers with M40A3 Sniper Rifles were constantly firing at the enemy trench. The sound of radio checks from & to Airborne Command in the MEU(SOC).
http://www.policetrainingconsultants.com/BasicSniper/sniper1.JPG
Commanders in the trench gather together while the last Airborne Military Police Platoon watch over the troops. Sensors were placed on top trenches to observe movement, using FLIR, Night Vision, & Acoustics. All of this was relayed to the Airborne Ranger Commanders. Airborne Rangers relaxed and began cooking their dinner. Others fell asleep.
Ghillie-suited Rangers of the 1st and 5th Airborne, 200 meters beyond the Bonstockian trenches. 2/3’s the Rangers were in the prone position to cover the other 1/3 helping the men in Delta Heavy Weapons Companies setting up Heavy Weapon Nests and relocating others to a new position.

Suez Beaches
With Bonstocknian tanks and soldiers firing from both sides at the enemy defenses, small patrols of no more then 4 tanks and 40 soldiers each start probing beyond the beaches. A second wave of Bonstocknian soldiers comes to shore on LCACs and AAAVs. A total of 15,000 Bonstocknians were now ashore, pushing through the enemy defenses. Off shore, destroyers fired their guns at the Roman defenses. At least 500 Bonstocknians were out.
Julius Caeser Airbase
Bonstocknian soldiers continued firing machine guns and Stinger missiles at the Roman choppers, while fireteams below ran into Roman MPs, who were quickly sprayed with well-aimed M-4, SAW, and grenades. With infrared goggles, Bonstocknian soldiers found Roman snipers in the rooftops. Grenediers aimed their grenade launchers, fireing rounds designed to go through walls to kill the snipers. Yet 50 more Bonstocknians were out, and there was no way to get the wounded out. The remaining Bonstocknians ran inside a building, clearing it and fortifying it. There they prepared for their last stand.
Fleets in Red Sea
The Bonstocknian AEGIS systems were readied for any Roman air incursion. Dozens of SH-60 choppers were launched, and fired depth charges and Mk48 torpedoes to destroy Roman submarines. Another carrier is damaged by the submarines, and two more destroyers are sunk.
Skogby
Trenches protected the Bonstocknians from most sniper fire, and the long period of waiting began. Hopefully, the Romans would eventually be starved out. Ground forces kept away and truck columns, and dense networks of Bofors 40mm AAA guns and Patriot SAMs guarded the air routes in.
Meanwhile, Bonstocknian trucks passed along the highways unmolested, bringing replacements and supplies to the defending division.
Similar occurances went on in Flodbro, and near the Roman beaches. Althought about 40 Bonstocknians were out, replacements were already coming, and the troops were well fed and had plentiful ammunition, which was being built up for one final push to eliminate the Romans and free the Federal Republic.
Straits of Gibralter, in Roman Republic
Four Bonstocknian Seawolf class submarines had been dispatched on what may have seemed a suicide mission: infultrate the Mediterranean, and wreak havoc on Roman shipping. At the very least, they would give the Romans something to think about.
Silently, they dove down, approaching the Straits of Gibralter from the Atlantic ocean. If they could just pass through unmolested, and unseen, they would be safe. For now.

Time: Midnight
Frogmen preparing to go, Southwest Fleet..
Battle Plan:
http://tinypic.com/4lq80x
A squad of Marines, a Recon team, and a Shore Fire Control Party team (Shore Party) suited up for their objectives. The Marines were to carry the heavy equipment, like: Satchel Charges, Toolboxes, Mine clearance kits, Robo-Soldier UGVs (Unmanned Ground Vehicle), etc. The Recon team carries Cameras to send photos to command, Radio Controlled UAVs, Portable Reconnaissance Receivers, etc. The Shore Party carries SOFLAM Designators, Radio Connections to Friendly Fire Support Forces. Weapons carried are: XM-8 Rifles, XM-8 Rifles with M320 40mm Grenade launchers, XM-8 Machine Guns, XM-8 Sniper Rifles, and M9 Berettas. All of this was to form a Frogmen Platoon. 5 Frogmen Platoon were assembled to create "holes" at 4 Strike locations by clearing the beach obstacles. 1 Platoon is to clear the beach for the Armored Cavalry to come ashore. AAAVs are to aid the Frogmen Platoons to keep the beaches clear and secure the West beaches. Joint-Army, Navy, Marine Aircraft are to provide support in case of complications.
The Marine Command took 4 LPD-17 San Antonio's from the 4 MEU (SOC). The Naval Command took 5 SSGN Ohio Class (Guided Missile) from 1 Southwest Naval Fleet. The plan is to make 4 mini-ARGs (Amphibious Ready Group) with each 1 LPD-17 San Antonio and 1 SSGN Ohio Class. The SSGN is to provide Tomahawk missile strikes. LPD-17s are to carry AAAV, Marine MV-22 Ospreys, Marine or Army RAH-66 Comanches.
If everything goes correct, the entire 4 MEU (SOC) along with 20 Armored Cavalry Regiments will land on the 4 strike locations. The rest of the 10 Armored Cavalry Regiments will land at the 5th Strike location.
1st Strike..
On board the RRS (Roman Republican Ship) San Antonio, 1st Mini-ARG. A MV-22 Osprey takes off with 1 Frogmen Platoon. The Osprey hovers above the RRS SSGN Ohio and men fast rope down and into the sub. After the fast roping, the helicopter leaves and heads back to the San Antonio. The submarine submerges and heads over to the objective. The Frogmen enter a SEAL Delivery Vehicle (SDV) and detach from the sub and heads over to the beach. 100 meters near the beach. The Frogmen exit out of the SDV and swim to shore. The Platoon Lieutenant scans the beach to see if it's safe to land.
http://www.sinodefence.com/navy/marines/frogman_1.jpg
The men crawl out and activate their Adaptive Camouflage. They stealthily rush toward their duties. 1 Marine Fire team unloaded their rucksacks and switched on 8 Robo-Soldier UGVs armed with 20mm Armor Piercing Machine Guns, 20mm Grenade launchers, and 70mm Rocket launchers to patrol the beaches and provide support while the Frogmen do their jobs.
http://www.pica.army.mil/PicatinnyPublic/news/images/highlights/robot1.jpg
2nd Marine Fire team began planting Satchel Charges on obstacles and used their toolboxes to cut through the barbed wire. 3rd Marine Fire team started clearing mines and inspects them. A Recon team uses their Cameras take pictures and send it to Command. They also launched Radio Controlled UAVs to see over the bunkers and set up Portable Reconnaissance Receivers to observe the environment & the enemy.
The Recon team found that there are SAM sites and AA batteries.
http://www.defense-update.com/images/casper200.jpg
The Shore Party team used their SOFLAM designators and sent target coordinates to the SSGN and Friendly Forces with Artillery. After the job was done, men dived back into the water to head back home. The Robo-Soldier UGVs is to continue observing and patrol the beaches after the Satchel Charges go off and the AAAV arrive.
2nd Strike..
The 2nd Frogmen Platoon followed the same procedure as the 1st Frogmen Platoon did at location: Strike 2.
3rd Strike..
The 3rd Frogmen Platoon followed the same procedure as the 1st Frogmen Platoon did at location: Strike 3.
4th Strike..
The 4th Frogmen Platoon followed the same procedure as the 1st Frogmen Platoon did at location: Strike 4.
5th Strike..
Only 1 SSGN Ohio class carrying the entire 5th Frogmen Platoon. There is no LPD-17 San Antonio carrying the AAAVs like the first 4 mini-ARGs. The Marine Command Element improvised by send LAV-25s, LAV-AT from one of the 4 LHD-8 Wasps in the Southwest Fleet. The 5th Frogmen Platoon followed the same procedure as the first 4 Platoon at location: Strike 5.
10 minutes later..
After the men went back home. The Satchel Charges went off at all the 5 Strike locations and a huge massive explosion came. Obstacles were cleared.
http://www.history.navy.mil/photos/images/k11000/k11769.jpg
1/2 hour later.. (OCC:If you react after the charges go off, This post will triggered.)
AAAVs surfed up shore after the explosion, to make Clear and secure the beach at all the 4 Strike locations.
The LAV-25 and LAV-AT swam to shore at the 5th strike location.
AAAVs aimed their 35mm Armor Piercing rounds and Javelin Anti-Tank/Bunker missiles from a canister at the bunkers.
LAV-25 and LAV-AT fired 25mm Armor Piercing Rounds and TOW-2A/B missiles at bunkers.
6 Army/Marine RAH-66 Comanches from each of the Mini-ARGs took off to the 4 Strike locations to destroy SAM sites and AA batteries provided by the Radio Controlled UAVs Pictures.
20 Tomahawk LAMs launched from 4 SSGN Ohio Class Subs to hit the 4 Strike locations like Bunkers, SAMs and AA batteries. The Tomahawks impact the designated targets.
The 5th Strike location, A SSGN Ohio Class launched 50 Tomahawk LAMs to make up the firepower of the Comanches. Ant the Tomahawks hit and destroyed the targets.
5 Carriers of the Southwest Fleet launched 30 F/A-18E Super Hornets & 20 F-35C JSFs each to the 5 Strike locations. All equipped with HARM missiles, AMRAAM, JSOW, SLAM-ER missiles, Sidewinders Missiles, and Bunker Busters bombs.

ic:
Some time before, Bonstocknian sattelites had noticed the ships carrying the 34 enemy units towards the Federal Republic. Indeed, the information had been passed on to Lord Harald himself, who ordered the beefing up of shore defenses and the use of an armored reserve to beat back any possible penetrations.
In total, five Bonstocknian corps, each with a light or airborne division and four mechanized infantry divisions were ready to defend the area.
All of them were relatively evenly distributed in army camps hidden in the forests and mountains of southeastern Bonstock.
The Bonstocknian Coast Guard, ever since the outbreak of the conflict, had maintained patrols of 30 men each walking along the beaches. Searchlights illuminated the beaches to deter the use of active camoflouge.
A few patrols began to notice suspicious activity. The Coastguardmen got on the radio as soon as they could, and told their superiors that the Romans were attacking.
The patrols began exchanging fire with the Romans as Lord Harald was notified of the incusions. All Bonstocknian forces in the area were put on full alert, ready at any moment to come rushing to the beaches.

Men drove on the ground and fired on the searchlight to cover their tracks. Machine gunners began supressive fire at the enemy. Snipers fired at the men.
The Robo-soldier UGV fired 25mm Machine Gun rounds at the enemy
2 men were shot.

Anyway, I was talking about the transports taking the ACRs and the MEUs. You posted something about them a while back, but I sent a bunch of carrier battle groups to intercept them.
Why use a carrier for homeland defense? Why not? It only increaces my air supremacy in the area. Besides, my navy's mostly carriers and their escorts anyway, so not using them would render my navy unable to do much else.

Coastguardmen, of course, saw most of the satchel charges placed, and quickly bomb-squads went in to defuse them before they exploded.
The beach defenders, mostly light troops of the airborne divisions, began loading their weapons and preparing for battle. In trenches and machine gun bunkers all along, men turned out to fight, their rifles aimed at the surf. Again, searchlights illuminated the area, scanning for the oncoming enemy.
By this time, all of the Bonstocknian corps had loaded onto trucks and were heading out towards the beaches. One of them went for each strike location, ready to throw back any invasion attempt.
ooc: ill be back in a bit.

29-04-2005, 02:20
As soon as the Romans began their assault on the beaches at each of the strike points, the light troops of each Corps light division were there waiting, machine guns and 105mm howitzers at ready. As soon as AAAVs and LAVs began approaching, they opened fire.
Just as they did so, 720 F-22s flew overhead, 120 for each location, intercepting all incoming enemy aircraft and establishing a Bonstocknian air supremacy. A few minutes later, just as the Roman amphibs began to reach the shore, 720 A-10 Warthogs, 120 at each location, flew over, firing Maverick missiles and 30mm chain guns at the AAAVs and LAVs below.
http://www.4sims.com/toppilot/Cards/Images/A-10_Warthog.JPG
Yet, even with all the Bonstocknian counterweight, penetration was bound to occur. But the mechanized and armored units had already been trucked into the combat zone, and were ready to counter-attack at any point. Four mechanized divisions, 150 Leopard IISs and 300 CV-90s each, are located at each of the five different locations, ready and waiting to strike.
When AAAVs start breaking out, they throw themselves at the breakthrough, silencing it and driving onto the beach, litterally pushing the Romans back into the sea.
Lord Harald had ordered that not a single Roman soldier should remain on Bonstocknian shores alive. His orders were to be carried out to their fullest.

The Delta Operators tried and injured by the Bontockian who tortured them. They planned a break out to get extracted by friendlies. The men began whispering in Hindi about their escape plan and make sure the enemy guards guarding their jail cells will not overhear their conversation. The plan is about the Operators’ escape. The objectives are 1) To find the perfect time to escape, 2) sneak behind the guards and interrogate them for info, 3) use the enemy’s weapons and clothing, because the operators’ uniforms are useless now, 4) eliminate all threats in the compound, no matter if they are soldiers or civilian. If it only gets the men out, 5) radio friendlies for extraction, & 6) just get the hell out of dodge without the enemy knowing.
http://indianairforce.nic.in/afkargil/pow-pak.jpg
In the Skogby Forests...
The Roman held trench went under a few renovations. There was no Engineer Company or equipment, so the Rangers used their folding shovels and activated their super-human ability system to dig. After 2 grueling hours, the Rangers dug their trench an extra 190 feet long and 12 feet wide. They also built rooms like a Command and Control Center, Medical Station, Kitchen, a few rooms with dirt-made beds, and ammunition depots.
The Rangers needed food to continue living so cannibalism was the alternative for survival. The men hacked the bodies of their comrades and the enemy using their Gladius swords. They checked if the bodies weren’t rotten or unedible. The butchered bodies are stored in the kitchen.
Ammo and weapons were collected from every possible location that was left by the enemy and Roman troops. Disabled tank compartments were searched for ammo for the M1A2 Abrams inside the Roman held trench, since the LOSAT were out of ammo. Now the Abrams will have to take the tank killer role. Machine Guns and Anti-tank weapons were collected to make Heavy Weapon Emplacements with sandbags filled with soil. They also made obstacles and barricades from metal found from destroyed vehicles. Now the Roman Rangers were ready to the fight.
Ranger Snipers were the only ones continuously firing over the enemy trench and observing enemy movement. The snipers and sensors placed above the trench will alert all if the enemy attacks.
After all the necessary requirements were fulfilled, The next thing to do is weaken the enemy because they should have ditch the trench before or just use guerrilla warfare taught in training. The Rangers would blame the Commanding officers, but the Colonel of the Brigade and some of the officers are dead. Now the Rangers will have fight there way out and avenge their dead comrades.
Only 2 Lieutenant Colonels, 3 Company Captains, 2 Platoon Lieutenants, 8 High Ranking Sergeants, and 500 Tactical Operation Command Staff. These were the only officers who will lead a few hundred men. They used propaganda to motive their men that they will make it through.
But, the Rangers were so angry that the propaganda wouldn’t work and their willingness to serve their commanding officers disappeared, never to come back for the rest of their lives. The Rangers grabbed the officers and their Staff during their meeting. The Rangers committed treason and began reading their rights and that the Sergeants are the new commanders and the officers and Officers’ Staff were to be executed by firing squad. After the speech, the Officers and Staff were lined up and were executed by their own men and were butchered for food. It must have been the Cannibalism, the psychological effect of seeing their comrades die, or the shitty way the officers give orders. Now the high ranking Sergeants were the new commanders of the men and continued their goals. The execution gunshots echoed all through the Skogby forest.
After that event, the Sergeants took over command and control roll. The filled the Command Center to discuss the current situation and plans to get their men out. The sergeants needed Intel to know what the enemy has and predict their plans. They want to talk to MI battalion, but their HQ staff and Signal Battalion were not accessible and the Rangers had no way to communicate with other paratroopers. CSM Tyler discussed that they will use the Bonstockian radio equipment, examples are SATCOM, SINCGARS, or Vehicle radios to communicate to command and fellow paratroopers. Tyler order Sergeant Garcia to form a small recovery team to salvage any Bonstockian radio equipment and make sure they are operational. Garcia came out of the center and ordered his squad to help and he explained what they were to look for. The squad began looking around in and around the damaged vehicles and the infantry equipment lying around the trench. PFC Shah found a SATCOM radio; he then investigated it to see if it is operational. The radio is perfectly preserved. A couple squad members found and retrieved the radios. The walked all the way back to the Command Center. The squad members placed the radios on the table to be inspected by the high-ranking sergeants. Tyler selected the SATCOM radio that PFC Shah found. Tyler then orders a SFC to set up the antenna. Then Tyler looked at the instructions and entered the encryption code and the code to communicate with the CVN flagstaff, MEU Command Element, fellow paratroopers, Special Forces, Aircraft, & various Airborne Command Elements: Military Intelligence BLT, Signal BLT, HHC, and Battlestaff.
Tyler made contact with the MEU Command Element, he asked that his men needs tons of intel so the Rangers can figure out a way to get out of the trench and into the forest. The Command element contacted one of the CVN-21’s Joint Intelligence Center (JIC) for Satellite Reconnaissance. The JIC access the National Imagery & Mapping Agency’s (NIMA) database part of the Department/Ministry of Defense and asked the NIMA agents to recon the entire Bonstockian countryside especially around the Rangers in the trench. The spy satellites orbited around Bonstock and taking plenty of pictures. The agents review the pictures and identify the pictures. The pictures contained over 10,000 Armored vehicles and 1 million enemy soldiers dug in trenches. A few pictures couldn’t be identified, so the agents retook the pictures at the location with the satellites. Then the agents reviewed the pictures and discovered that they were SAM and AAA sites. The pictures were sent to JIC then to the MEU Command Element. Command then told CSM Tyler to hook the wire to the SATCOM and his helmet, and then Command transmitted the images to the CSM Tyler’s internal computer. The CSM shared the pictures between the other sergeants. They all took a look at the pictures and discussed what they should do. They all decided to laser designate the enemy trench so the every destroyer, cruiser, submarine, arsenal ship, aircraft, helicopter, & artillery. Once the enemy is weak, they will continue to laser designate and the men will make they break. Then the men will get the hell out of dodge with the support from aircraft and heavy armor.
After the decision, CSM Tyler ordered several Rangers to coordinate and designate targets over at the enemy’s trench. After they are done, the designated targets were transmitted to the SATCOM and again were transmitted to every destroyer, cruiser, submarine, arsenal ship, marine, navy, army aircraft & helicopters and army & marine artillery.
In the Bonstockian Peninsula National Park. The 1st and 3rd Airborne DIVARTY were located at the northeast and southeast end. Each DIVARTY had a Military Police Platoon, Paratrooper Company, & Air Defense Battery (12 Avenger/Stinger HMMWVs & 2 Air Defense/Surveillance radars) protected them. There were total of 108 Crusader Artillery and 108 HIMARS MLRS and a couple dozen TPQ-36 Firefinder Counterbattery Radars that will search for enemy artillery fire. The Crusaders received the fire mission from the Rangers in Skogby who designated the targets and were transmitted by SATCOM to the Crusaders. All the 108 Crusaders calculated the time that one volley will take to reach the designated target and fired that round. Then they fired 10 additional rounds with alternate trajectory paths to reach the designated targets simultaneously.
The 108 HIMARS also calculated the targets and selected the necessary Rocket Artillery rounds for that kind of fire mission. Rocket rounds included SADARM & Submuntion dispensers. Each HIMARS fired 1 Rocket round every 5 seconds.
The Northeast Fleet (Dictator Fleet) received the targets, then all the destroyers, cruisers, submarines, and arsenal ship programmed the targets to the tomahawk missiles. They fired a total of 1000 Tomahawks that are armed with Submunition dispensers that will defeat armor and kill infantry. After launch, the tomahawks stealthily cruise to their targets at Skogby. When they reach over their targets, the warheads detonate and released the submunitions over the enemy’s heads.
Urban Warfare in Flodbro…
Rangers began suppressive fire against the Bonstockian Infantry. Ranger HMMWVs with XM307 OCSW travel the city and fire 25mm Air bursting Grenades and 25mm KE Bullets.
Abram tanks patrolled and searched the city for enemy Armor or gun down enemy soldiers.
Rooftop Snipers and Machine gunners engaged the enemy running toward or away from their path. They send coordinates of were the enemy is located to other paratroopers.
60mm and 81mm Mortar teams provide artillery support for the paratroopers by sustaining a fire of 10 rounds per minute.
Rangers activate their Adaptive Camouflage, The internal computer scans the environment and activates the Urban Adaptive Camouflage to make them invisible like chameleons, not even the human eye can find them. Micro-Climate Cooling system reduced the thermal signatures, not even the most sensitive thermal detector can find them. The Rangers’ HUD (Heads Up Display) activated Thermal, Radar, motion vision, Electronic Enhanced Vision, and other systems.
Some Ranger squads hid in the shadows to sneak behind the enemy and kill them without being noticed and they can drag them back into the shadows.
http://www.jedsite.info/misc/foxtrot/fist_series/adaptive-camouflage-suit/acs_001.jpg
All friendlies used the info and recon pictures provided by other Rangers, MBTs, and helicopters that were engaging the enemy and locations of possible enemy movement and position.
Then the Rangers followed the coordinates. Since the Adaptive Camouflage hid them, they popped out of the corners and fired a couple 5-round bursts and ran out of sight before the enemy knew what hit them. Their tactic will be Guerrilla Warfare to weaken and demoralize the enemy.
V-22B Ospreys and UH-60L Black Hawk helos orbited around the city. All the Black Hawks’ Crew Chiefs and Door Gunners and 8 Rangers acting as door gunners circled around the enemy location and engaged the enemy with machine gun and small arms fire. All the gunners in the V-22s who manning the 2 sidedoor Miniguns and a M2 .50-Caliber Machine Gun on the ramp fired at the enemy below.
RAH-66 Comanches followed coordinates also sent by Rangers to engage Armor, Infantry, and
possibly Aircraft by using Hellfires, 20mm Gattling rounds, Hydra Rockets, and Stinger Missiles.
3 UH-60Q MEDEVAC Blackhawks and 4 Marine MV-22B Ospreys arrived from the Wasp LHD of the 1st MEU of the Northeast Fleet to pick up Roman causalities and extract them back. The Tactical Operations Staff coordinated the LZ at the Flodbro beach for vehicles with causalities to arrive at and helos can extract them. 4 7-ton trucks with 20 injured or dead soldiers in each truck and 4 HMMWVs to help escort the trucks to the LZ. The convoy fired their machine guns all along their route. When the convoy reached the LZ, the helos landed to pick up the soldiers. The trucks and HMMWVs formed a perimeter; all the men in the HMMWVs except the machine gunners loaded the causalities in the helos. Then the helos while the crew chiefs and door gunners fire their miniguns until they are away from the city. The convoy leaves the LZ and resumes the battle.
Marines on and beyond the beach, North of Skogby…
The Marines held their fire, since the enemy wasn’t engaging but kept their weapons up, HUD activate, Adaptive Camouflage, Super Human ability, & Micro-Climate to maintain their situational awareness & stealth. The Marine Colonel Shah orders 4 two-man Scouts to find and coordinate the enemy locations and designate targets for Artillery and Aircraft Support. If the men are spotted and discovered, they should retreat or continue with the laser designation but only with artillery from Marine & Airborne Artillery and Naval Artillery and Tomahawks.
The Scouts activate their Adaptive Camouflage to blend in like chameleons and Micro-Climate Cooling to reduce their thermal signature. The HUD activated Thermal, Radar, Motion vision, Electronic Enhanced Vision, and other systems.
Naval Strike Groups of the Southeast Fleet…
The Admirals of the Southwest fleet decided to move the 8 Naval Strike Groups along the coast of east Bonstock waters, so they will cover more “ground.” The Command Element suggested that they should send some Subs to place mines at enemy ports so any ship leaving will be mined, but to keep the water minefield from being cleared, a few Surface vessels will destroy any mine clearing ships.
Major General Patel, commander of all the Airborne divisions currently serving, suggested he should send 2 of the 3 Airborne Divisions that were already alert, mobilized and promised by the Chiefs of Staff in the Pentagon. He asked for this because his goal is to capture all the ports, harbors, railroads, bridges, airports, and various structures of military importance. He also hoped the Special Forces Operators deep in the country can disrupt enemy movement, coordination, logistics, communication, provide special reconnaissance, and demolition of important structures. The Navy SEALs may now have to return to battle or the Admirals and General may ask SOCOM to send more Special Forces Operators, so the SEALs will head home. The General also wanted to send 3 Armored Cavalry Regiments for the marines that already landed on the beach near Skogby.
The SEAL assistant commander entered the room and talked with the General and Admirals that his team wants to go back in. Admiral Gordon accepted the commander’s proposal and will send them in when the time is right.
The General wonder what happened to the 4th and the 2 Brigades of the 3rd Airborne when the Airborne Assault was taking place during the campaign. The last contact was when they were dropped deep over the Bonstockian Forests. The transports must have hurriedly dropped the paratroopers before reaching to the planned drop, since enemy air defenses and fighters were harassing and destroying the transports. Only the 3rd/3rd Airborne (3rd Brigade of the 3rd Airborne) reached the drop zone in one piece & now they are fighting in Flodbro. The General hoped that the 2 divisions would try to reunite and find a way to make contact with the Airborne HQ, the MEU Command Element, or Flagstaff.
Air strikes against Port Yuko and Flodbro…
The flagstaff of the Dictator Fleet discussed that this is the fleet’s last tour of duty. They wanted to make more of a difference in air superiority, fire support, and intelligence gathering. They were going to need 100,000 sorties before they finally leave. Their mission is to commence air superiority, air support for the Rangers at Flodbro & Skogby, and airstrikes against various targets of military importance. Since 5 aircraft carriers were sunk and enemy anti-ship missiles damaged every vessel still floating. Navy engineers repaired the damages to the best of their abilities. The 5 aircraft carriers that were damaged could only launch 3 every 10 minutes. The Wasp amphibious carrier had no problem launching aircraft and helicopters because they were either STOVL or VTOL. The flagstaff decided that each carrier shall launch 30 F/A-18E Super Hornets, 20 F-35C JSFs, 10 F-45 J-UCAV, 1 CSA (Common Support Aircraft) AEW, and 5 EA-18G Growlers (EW). Each Wasp LHDs shall launch 8 RAH-66 Comanches and 6 F-35B JSFs. Helicopters are equipped with the standard load of Stingers, Hellfires and Hydra Rockets. Aircraft equipped with AMRAAM, Sidewinders, Mavericks, JSOW, SLAM-ER, Penetration bombs, Sensor Fused Cluster Bombs, and HARM. UCAV are only equipped with Sidewinders, JDAM, & Sensor Fused Bombs.
The Staff ordered the officers of each carrier to use the Ships Signals Exploitation Center to conduct electronic warfare by jamming enemy radar, intercept enemy communications, hack into the Bonstockian military database, and various electronic warfare services. The center will help the aircraft fly beyond the enemy air defenses and the aircraft will destroy them.
After the meeting, the top Admiral phone the Captains of the Aircraft Carriers and gave the orders that was discussed in the meeting.
After the order was giving, the Control tower staff ordered the crew in the hanger to load the aircraft with muntions and bring them on the flattop. The aircraft were brought up on the elevators and were strapped to the catapult. After the checks were completed, the aircraft launched of the carriers. The procedure kept repeating over and over until every aircraft was in the air.
After that, the Ships Signals Exploitation Center activated the electronic Warfare systems and computers began hacking the enemy database along with the system specialists.
East Bonstock Beaches…
All Strike points…
The Frogmen fired silenced rounds at the unsuspected enemy. The men have to hide before they get the hell out. The internal computer in the Frogmens’ uniform processed the information about the environment using the sensors on the uniform and activated the adaptive camouflage and to hide from searchlights. The Micro-Climate Cooling System reduces the frogmen’s thermal signature.
The Frogmen Commanders on all strike points radioed Command that they’ll continue their mission once the AAAV/ EFV (Expeditionary Fighting Vehicle) and Air Support arrive.
All the Satchel Charges were triggered. Obstacles were cleared and Minefield rigged with Bangalore torpedo explosives and were all triggered and cleared. Hopefully the mines exploding killed the enemy on the beach.
EFVs surfed up shore after the explosion, to clear and secure the beach at all the 4 Strike locations.
The LAV-25 and LAV-AT swam to shore at the 5th strike location.
EFVs aimed their 35mm Armor Piercing and DU at the bunkers.
The M240G co-axiel gun aimed and fired at enemy
LAV-25 and LAV-AT fired 25mm Armor Piercing Rounds, TOW-2A/B missiles, and M240G co-axiel guns at bunkers and the enemy.
http://rtoc.ida.org/rtoc/images/aaav.jpg
6 Army/Marine RAH-66 Comanches from each of the 4 San Antonio LPDs of the Mini-ARGs took off and headed off to the 4 Strike locations to destroy enemy soldiers in the trenches that were provided by the Dragon Eye Mini-UAVs pictures.
80 Tomahawk Missiles each launched from 5 SSGN Ohio Class Subs and headed to the 5 Strike locations to destroy targets like Bunkers, Radar sites, Air defense sites, and Soldiers in trenches. The Tomahawks cruise over their targets and detonate their warheads over the targets and they also pierce through the bunkers and detonate.
10 Aircraft Carriers from the 7th Naval Fleet and 10 Carriers from the 8th Naval Fleet of the Southeast Fleet each launched 30 F/A-18E Super Hornets, 20 F-35C JSFs, & 5 EA-18G Growlers (EW) to the 5 Strike locations. All equipped with HARM missiles, AMRAAM, JSOW, Sidewinders, Sensor Fused Cluster bombs, JDAM, Mavericks and Bunker Busters bombs.
The Air Boss also ordered that they launch 2 AEW CSA (Common Support Aircraft) and 3 ELINT CSA. The AEW and ELINT will provide electronic/air/ground surveillance and other services.
10 minutes later, the Super Hornets and JSF storm over the 5 Strike locations. The Targeting Computers organized the targets from important to mild threats. Then the pilots selected the targets and released their bombs.
5 Airborne Close Air Support Squadron (50 JSFs per) took of from 5 Aircraft Carriers of the 2nd Naval Fleet, Southeast Fleet. They will become the second wave and provide air support and air patrols for the Ground troops.
5 MEU CVNs will each launch 40 F/A-18E Super Hornets and 30 F-35 JSF will launch incase the mission goes wrong.
On the beach, the Frogmen were going to continue their mission ‘til the enemy who were patrolling the beach and engaged the Frogmen were dead. Now the men had to clear the beach before the get out and let friendlies about to arrive become safe. The men either kept hold of their Suppressed XM-8 rifles or took out their Mark 23 Pistols or Ka-bar knives. The men along with their Adaptive Camouflage to make them into chameleons and micro-climate cooling to reduce their thermal signature. They activated the system that gives them superhuman ability to give them more strength to carry on. The men also used their HUD which included Radar, Night Vision, and FLIR to detect anymore troops massing towards them and also following behind the Coast Guardsmen to rifle butt, knife, knock out, and break the enemies’ neck. The men split into pairs following the enemies’ high thermal signature quietly. Some of the men rifle butt the enemy, others grabbed the enemy and either place their knives at the enemies’ throat or place the pistol at the side of the head. The men with knives or pistols either slit their throats, break their necks, fire a pistol round through their cranium, pistol whipped them, or knock them out. The men will continuously do this until the Coast Guardsmen on the beach are killed or the Frogmen Commanders order the men to extract.
2nd Strike point..
“Command!” radioed Lieutenant Dinesh, “Our surprise is fucked up. My men have to leave, NOW!”
“Roger that…Before you leave…We need a few enemy soldiers to be interrogated for information.”
“Roger Command.”
The Lieutenant text messaged a Fireteam & Recon Team to capture a few men.
The teams snuck behind the enemy & pulled out their knife and grabbed the enemy and knocked them out. The men scanned the unconscious men and found out they were Bonstock Coast guardsmen. Then they searched their rucksack and pulled out a coil of rope and cloth, they blindfolded and tied up the unconscious men. Then men text messaged the Lieutenant that they got Coast Guards. So the men dragged the unconscious Coast Guardsmen to the edge of the beach & formed a 360-degree circle. Then they wait for 3 EFVs to arrive and extract them.
When the EFVs arrive on the 2nd strike point, but 4 EFVs were destroyed before they even knew what hit them.
Now the EFVs come and the Frogmen load the prisoners and extracted themselves home. The EFVs provided covering fire with 35mm Cannons and 7.62mm Co-axiel guns while the Frogmen loaded the prisoners and themselves.
4th Strike Point…
After the EFVs came, some unknown enemy Aircraft disabled 6 EFVs and killed 4 Frogmen who were between the path of the enemy aircraft & the EFVs. The Commanders of the each EFV used the IFF Interrogator and Identification system. The system identified whatever attacked them and they were A-10 Warthogs. Each EFV fired smoke grenades, Chaff, and Flares to hide themselves.
5th Strike Point…
9 LAV-25 were also destroyed along with 6 Frogmen who were about to board the LAVs. Since the Systems weren’t updated yet. The LAVs didn’t know what attacked them. The LAV gunners fired smoke grenades, Chaff, and Flares to hide themselves.
All Strike Points…
At the 1st and 3rd Strike point, 7 EFVs were disable to move, but still have the ability to continue firing. The EFVs will have to wait until the a few maintenance crews arrive by LCAC and fix the EFV to the maximum extent and extract them to the LCAC.
In response to the A-10 Warthog attack. All the EFVs on all 5 strike points launched smoke grenades, chaff and flares.
The Commanders radio all friendly aircraft that there are enemy aircraft circling and attacking friendly forces.
The mini-UAV Operators of every Recon team spots and locates the enemy in trenches. So the UAV Operators send the Photos & coordinates of the enemy to Shore Party. Then Shore Party sent the coordinates to all the 8 Naval Fleets (80 NSSN Virginia, 80 SSN Seawolf, 80 Ticonderoga Cruisers, 80 DD (X) Destroyers, 80 Arsenal Ships, 75 SSGN Ohio Class, 80 Arleigh Burke Destroyers). All the vessels each launched 80 Tomahawks, all headed to lay waste of the enemy and land forces can breach the country a second time. All the Destroyers and Cruisers fired their 155mm lightweight AGS guns.
The Navy Super Hornets and JSF detected threats of enemy aircraft. The Computer identified them that they were F-22 Raptors and A-10 Warthogs. So, the pilots fired AMRAAM and Sidewinder Missiles at them.
The Super Hornets and JSF with the bomb load targeted the bunkers, trenches, and air defense sites. They used the Bunker buster bombs on the bunkers. They used JDAM, Sensor fuse, and cluster bombs on the trenches and air defense sites. The Mavericks were used against armor, if it is present and air defense sites
The Growlers (EW) continued with the mission to jam and suppress Radar sites and that the rest of the aircraft, who are destroying the bunkers along the East Bonstockian coast, destroy the air defenses. The Growlers flew over the bunkers and the computer detected and targeted the Radar sites and began jamming them. After that, pilots fired HARM missiles and the Growlers turned around and let the HARM missiles home to their targets.
The Marine/Army Comanches hovered 30 meters above the enemy trenches at the 4 strike points. The Comanche pilots checked the systems if the radar and thermal absorbing skin/exterior is working probably, so now the helos can spot & engage the enemy without any fear. The helos use their night vision and Improved FLIR to spot soldiers & began firing their 20mm Gattling guns and hydra-70 rockets. Some of the Comanches’ radar and missile warning systems identified that enemy fighters are engaging, so the Comanches opened the weapon bays and fire a couple of Stinger missiles.
The Frogmen Commanders ordered the Frogmen to extract. Then all the Frogmen of all the strike points boarded the EFVs while the EFVs provided covering fire until the backdoor hatches are closed. The EFVs turned around while the EFV gunners continued to fire 35mm cannons, 7.62mm co-axiel guns, and used the smoke screen produced by the engine exhausts until they head back the San Antonio LPDs. The frogmen on the 5th Strike Point boarded the LAV-25s and also headed home. The LAV-25 fired their 25mm and 7.62mm guns and also used the smoke screen.
Now the EFVs, that never extracted the Frogmen, will have to secure the beach with the help from aircraft and fire support from the navy. The Airborne CAS will provide air support and air patrols for the EFVs on the beach. Naval Aircraft will make repeat sorties until the beach is secure and land forces land on the beach.
Roman Republic…
Cities of Egypt…
Enemy Air bombing destroy Patriot missiles Batteries, Power plants, few Industrial buildings, Airports, Radar Station around the areas & cities near the Nile and Cairo, were Julius Caesar Air Force Base is located around. The Cities’ government called upon local Civil Engineers, Firefighters, Ambulances, and Construction Workers to contain the destroyed locations and repair them as much as possible.
Julius Caesar Air Force Base…
100 MPs were shot before they even got a round off. 20 Rooftop snipers never saw the enemy fire the grenades and were instantly killed by shrapnel. An MP team radioed that the enemy holds the Base Hospital. The MP Colonel was worried because that the enemy had the advantage because the enemy would have medical supplies and ammunition (RPGs, Small arms, & anti-air rockets) to last a month. So the MPs quickly surround the building and used whatever cover to maintain the encirclement. HMMWVs with XM307 OCSW 25mm Machine Guns, from the AFB Motor Pool depot, followed behind the MPs and aimed and fired at whatever will come to attack them.
The Brigadier General’s Staff called local police and SWAT teams in a nearby town. 100 SWAT and Police arrived in Helicopters, Armored trucks and Police Cruisers to the base after the call.
The Police brought a few Directional Sound Systems to deafen and forcefully make the enemy surrender. An MP squad threw a couple smoke grenades and then they doubled timed it to the wall of the hospital. They threw 6 Robo-Soldier UGVs against the window to flush out the enemy. All the Robo-Soldier UGVs are equipped with 7.62mm machine guns, but if they equipped them with Grenade launcher or Rockets, the enemy would be killed but the building will get damaged. The Police used propaganda to peacefully make the enemy surrender and they will be returned home.
Enemy stinger missiles destroyed 5 Comanche tail rotors, so the helos spun out of control and ate the earth. 5 Comanches were damaged at the lower fuselage by shrapnel and machine gun fire. The Brigadier General of the AFB thanked the Comanche pilots for their service and are advised to head home. He also asked more helicopters from different Army Bases to enforce the Military Police’s power and beef up the Air Defense Umbrella. The General also called for heavy armor, in case the enemy broke free or enemy armor might be paradropped to the base.
Brutus Air Force Base, Turkey…
The Pentagon and the President ordered that Brutus AFB will quickly launch 4 E-3 AWACS Sentry, 4 E-8 J-STARS, & 4 EC-135 Rivet Joint to provide Air/Ground/Electronic surveillance, Command/Control, and other services. The Planes will patrol all over the fatherland to provide services for Air, Ground, and Naval Units and direct connections to and from the Pentagon. The Dictator realized that the AWACS, J-STARS, and Rivet Joint will become easy targets to the enemy aircraft and will not repeat the same mistake in past campaigns. The President ordered the Chiefs of Staff to send fighter escorts for each Squadron (1 J-STARS, 1 AWACS, 1 Rivet Joint). Each Squadron will have 10 F/A-22A Raptors, 15 F-15E Strike Eagles, and 12 F-35A JSFs.
Red Sea, West of Egypt…
Underwater, Submarine Operators got warning signals that torpedoes are heading toward the Sub and depth charges are exploding. It was too late for the 8 submarines to do anything but sink to the bottom & explode.
The other subs launched torpedo decoys mimicking the Submarine’s cross-section. After that, all the subs each fired 10 Tomahawk Anti-Ship Missiles, 20 Harpoon Anti-Ship Missiles, and 10 Torpedoes.
Surface of the water, SH-60S Seahawks fired Mk. 46 & Mk. 50 Torpedoes at the enemy fleet.
30 Arsenal Ships each fired 300 Tomahawk Anti-Ship Missiles. 30 Ticonderoga Cruisers, 30 Arleigh Burke Destroyers, and 30 DD (X) Destroyers each fired 6 torpedoes, 20 Anti-Sub Rockets, & 8 Harpoon Anti-Ship Missiles. They were all aimed at the damaged and undamaged Aircraft Carriers, escort ships, subs, and amphibious ships.
The 4/20 Air Attack Wing (4th Squadron/ 20th Wing) stormed to the Red Sea. 20 F-15E Strike Eagles and 10 F/A-22A Raptors aimed their crosshairs at the enemy fleet and they fired scores of Maverick missiles.
East Egyptian Beaches…
Roman Soldiers with small arms fell back; they left the rest to the men manning the 25mm Machine Guns. The Machine gunners fired Armor Piercing, DU, & Air bursting Grenade rounds at enemy tanks and infantry. With the Command Center destroyed no orders were to be giving. So, all the Roman Defenders followed their Roman nature to butcher to enemy. The Machine Gunners have to defend the beach because enemy bombardment is destroying the pillboxes and wall piece by piece. The Machine gunners also had to defend the other walls already been destroyed. If they failed the men will have to surrender or face the avenging might of the enemy if they continue to fight when the enemy overwhelms them.
http://www.sproe.com/images/screenshots/omaha-01-large.jpg
Near the beach, The 20 F-35A JSF and 10 F/A-22A Raptors bombed the enemy with JSOW (Submuntion dispenser), CBU-87 Combined Effects Munitions bombs, Sensor Fused Cluster bombs, Paveway III bombs, Hydra Rockets, and AGM-65G Mavericks. They also swooped down and fired 25mm Gattling rounds at enemy tanks and soldiers.
Each Sensor Fuzzed Weapon cluster munition each combines 10 submunitions with 4 skeet type warheads in a single dispenser, providing 40 weapons total. After release, a fuze causes the dispenser to disperse the 10 submunitions; each stabilized by a parachute. At a preset altitude a rocket fires, propelling the submunition in an upward vector. As the submunition climbs, it spun to disperse the 4 internal skeet warheads randomly by centrifugal force. An IR sensor in each warhead searches for a target, and upon discovery detonates over it, firing a kinetic fragment. The fragment drives itself through the armored top of the target. The fragments disperse over the enemy’s heads and shower them with lethal shrapnel.
Each JSOW is carrying six BLU-108/B submunitions. Each submunition releases four projectiles (total of 24 per weapons) that use infrared sensors to detect targets. Upon detection, the projectile detonates, creating an explosively formed, shaped charge capable of penetrating reinforced armor targets and showering shrapnel over the enemy soldiers’ heads.
30 UH-60L Black Hawks borrowed from the 89th& 50th Armored Air Cavalry Squadron. The Black Hawks were equipped with Volcano anti-personnel and anti-tank mine dispensers. They are to be dispersed all over the beach to create another obstacle for the enemy force.
7 81mm Mortar teams were flown in by 4 UH-60L Blackhawks from the 1st & 2nd Battalion of the 40th Airborne Division Base. While the Mortar teams were fastroping down, the Crew Chiefs manned the Miniguns and fired 7.62mm gattling rounds at the enemy infantry. A Roman Beach Defender Lt. Colonel told one of the men, Sgt. Wheeler, belonging to one of the mortar teams, that he will provide communication support because the radio equipment for the defenders in the Command Center have been destroyed by Tomahawks. Sgt. Wheeler’s mortar team will be attached to the Lt. Colonel. The Lt. Colonel told Sgt. Wheeler to radio the Black Hawk pilots that the Beach machine gunners will now manage and provide covering fire while the helos leave. So now the Black Hawks leave while the door gunners continue to fire until they are far away from the beach. The only Black Hawks still on the beach are the ones dropping the Volcano mines and Door gunners continue firing their miniguns while the mines are being dispersed.
The 7 mortar teams set up their M252 81mm Mortars and open the ammunition pallets. The crew adjusted the angle and sights, than dropped mortars in the tube and are launched. All the mortar teams continued a sustain fire of 20 rounds per minute.
The Lt. Colonel told Wheeler to radio the Pentagon to send a couple Avenger HMMWVS and Patriot PAC-3 missile batteries to provide an air defense umbrella.
Also from the 40th Airborne Division is the 1st Battalion of the Divisional Airborne Field Artillery (45 M777 155mm Ultra lightweight Howitzers). 90 UH-60L BlackHawks were borrowed from various Army Units. 45 BlackHawks are to carry the Howitzers and the other 45 are to carry the ammunition pallets. The 1st Airborne Field Artillery Battalion will set up their equipment 9 miles away from the East Egyptian Beach Defense. The trip will take less than 30 minutes to arrive and another 9 minutes to set up the equipment.
After the BlackHawks arrived 9 miles away from the East Beach Defense. The Artillery Crew fastrope down and unhook the howitzers and ammunition pallets. They prepare to sight the gun for accurate firing. Then quickly dig holes for the spades to dig in when the Howitzer fires.
The Artillery Crew prepares an ammo pit and a powder pit on opposite sides of the Howitzers. The Artillery Crew then has to cover any communication wire around their area. The Crew begins to load, ram their howitzer and begin firing HE rounds, Anti-tank/personnel mines and Submuntion rounds. They continue firing a sustained fire of 2 rounds per minute.
http://www.military.com/pics/SoldierTech_M777_4.jpg
The mines dropped by Blackhawks and the howitzers created 10 self-healing minefield lines (each line consisting of 100 mines). If the mines were cleared, the mines will reform after the enemy passes. If the Beach defenders succeed if pushing the enemy back into the water, the enemy won’t know what hit them because reformed minefield will create a surprise explosion and maybe kill or weaken the enemy.
The Defenders were going to need a second force to prevent the enemy from leaking all over Rome incase the minefield ambush failed, but enemy bombing damaged roads and railroads. The Pentagon is going to send 2 Armored Cavalry Regiments, but they’ll have to hoof it to the beach. Just hope the defenders can hold on, because it’s going to be a 4-hour drive.
Straits of Gibralter, Southern Spain…
Nothing serious happen here but only Shipping lines to and from the Republic and vise versa by other foreign countries. Just ships passing through.

ooc: dude, that's long... it will take a while to reply to.
Bonstock
15-07-2005, 22:28
Interrogation Center X-ray
Just south of Port Yuko, Bonstock
As soon as the enemy was seen speaking in Hindi, the MPs quickly took them each out of the room. They were each placed into individual 2 meter square cells, side by side. Microphones were placed in each cell, and guards patrolled around, a few of them fluent in Hindi. One by one, they would be interrogated, to provide information about the Romans' next move.
Skogby forests
ooc: wait, how did you fly heavy artillery into the national park? I'll assume it was an air assault from one of your ships, and some of the choppers were intercepted. Whatever, their tenure at life will be short.
ic:
A Bonstocknian soldier sank into his trench. He could see Roman soldiers on the other side building when he got up, but snipers made that way too dangerous. Only the sentries with .50 caliber machine guns were allowed up. But they were being picked of at a rate of two an hour by Roman snipers. Not exactly the best job in the world.
The Bonstocknian trenches, at least the forward fire trenches, were very austere. Most of them were merely ditches haphazardly dug by soldiers. Soldiers lived in holes they carved into the walls, save for a few officers who got small dugouts to live in. Communications trenches to supply depots were the lifeline back, and the supply depots were constantly restocked by a steady flow of five-ton trucks. Fortunatly, it wasn't raining that much, so mud wasn't a big problem. Soldiers, their M-4s and SAWs ready, waited for the chance to pop up and fire their weapons when the Romans began advancing.
Then the artillery bombardment started. Bonstocknian soldiers cowered into their trenches, hoping to wait out the bombardment. Helmets were quickly put on, and, in great fortune, casualties were somewhat minimal. About a hundred Bonstocknians were killed, and about ten times that many were wounded. Blackhawk helicopters began flying in to evacuate the wounded. But the Tomahawks were far worse weapons. Patriot missile site made a valiant effort to track and intercept them, destroying about half of them, but the rest made it through. A whole sector of the Bonstocknian trenches ringing the drop zones was demolished, and nearly five hundred Bonstocknian soldiers were killed.
Flodbro
A fireteam of four Bonstocknian soldiers held a small room overlooking a street in Flodbro. From time to time they exchanged fire with a Roman machine gun nest across the street, and mortar fire was landing all around, but nothign much was happening. In the air, they could see patrols of F-22s shooting down helicopters, but thee weren't enough Raptors to get all of them, and it was up to roving Avenger batteries to shoot down the Roman choppers. The Romans were mostly barracaded into a sector of the city's southern suburbs by street obstacles and fire positions like this ones. But suddenly, a rumble was heard in the distance.
"Looks like we got company of the armored type," said a rifleman in the fireteam.
One of the soldiers turned to him. "Go tell the platoon we need the Javelin teams here ASAP."
"Yes, sir." He walked out the room with his carbine.
The fireteam SAW gunner began shooting at the Roman soldiers standing by their tanks. The tank's turrent turned, and fired at the Bonstocknians. A near miss, but that could have been deadly. Feigning death, the fireteam withdrew from the window. The three men waited, hearing Roman soldier start to enter the building. They heard outside the door a Roman fireteam walk towards their room. Suddenly somebody beat down the door. The SAW gunner had his gun aimed, and mowed down the Romans as they entered. He got the first two. Then he ran out of ammo, and was quickly shot. The other two Bonstocknians, with only their M-4 carbines for protection, tried to shoot the other Romans.
Meanwhile, below in the street behind a barracade, two Javelin anti tank launchers were pointed at the Roman tanks, and two .50 caliber machine guns began firing at the Romans surrounding them. Another fireteam was sent into the building, to root out the Romans who had entered.
Heavy action was going on. Casualty estimates said that an average of ten soldier were killed each hour.
ooc: I'll have the beaches and stuff in your country soon.

Over the Roman East Shore Beaches
F-22 pilots were having a hell of a time. Their numbers were far better then the Romans, their training was just as good, their planes were better suited to air superiority (contrary to the F-35 and F/A-18s which did far better at air strikes), and they weren't at all concerned with attacking ground targets. All had full loadouts of AAMs, while the Romans would be limited to only one or two AAMs since they were trying to attack shore targets. About forty Bonstocknian planes were shot down, but they were quickly reinforced by reserve planes from the airfields. Only a few of the Roman planes managed to get through the dogfight, and only about 50 Bonstocknians lost their lives to their bombs. Damage for the most part was minimal to the shore defenses.
But the Tomahawk missile strikes caught the Bonstocknians way off guard. Again, Patriot missile sites tried to intercept the Tomahawks, but with so many coming in, and with enemy EW aircraft trying to jam them, it just wasn't enough. The beaches were given a heavy dousing of fire, destroying many of the bunkers. Engineers worked feverishly to repair them as Bonstocknian soldiers took up positions, and began firing at the Roman frogmen. Some took Javelin, TOW, and Stinger missiles, and started firing at the Roman EFVs, LAVs, and helicopters. About 450 Bonstocknians were killed int the attack.
The A-10s in the air were quick to see through the Roman smoke. "Turn on thermal imaging systems!" one of the pilots radioed.
"Yes, sir." Radioed back the other pilots. With thermal imaging on their HUDs, they were able to see the Roman vehicles moving forward, and quickly engaged them, going in close so they could unleash their 30mm chain guns.
At sea, the Bonstocknian Grand Fleet starts a new tactic. Instead of massed waves of carrier fighters striking for enemy carriers first, they send up an armada of EA-6 Intruder aircraft, nearly four hundred of them, both sea and land based, with an equal number of F-35 escorts with nothing but air-to-air missiles. The Intruders go for enemy destroyers, cruisers, frigates and carriers, targetting each one. They make an attempt to jam their radars, and hone in on them. When they got within range, they fired off a volley of hundreds of HARM missiles straight at the communcations decks of the Roman ships.

Julius Caesar Airbase
By now, most of the Bonstocknian paratroopers had wound up in the hospital. Lots of wounded were there, perhaps three hundred of them, and about a hundred Bonstocknians lay dead among the airbase out of three hundred who had arrived. The situation was growing bad. Fifty percent casualties was not good for a paratroop assault. The battalion XO, acting as commander as the CO had been shot, got on the radio.
"This is Airborne Task Force Hotel. We need extraction. We got a hundred KIAs, three times as many wounded. We need help!"
The situation was growing grim. With all the Romans surrounding, it would be hard to hold out. Sure, there was plentiful food and ammunition, but with constant fighting even that would be depleted. Plus a good JDAM would knock the place out easy.
Offshore, two dozen MH-53 took off from the Bonstocknian fleet, flying towards the Roman airbase. They were escorted by two dozen more F-35s. If they could get to the Bonstocknians in time, perhaps eight hundred Bonstocknians would not come home in bodybags.
Still, the fleet was under heavy fire. Two more carriers sank to the bottom, along with a dozen surface escorts and half a dozen amphibious ships. Bonstocknian submariners, in their twenty-odd Seawolf-class submarines, began striking back, firing off a volley of Tomahawk missiles and torpedoes at Roman surface ships. But some were beginning to see this as a doomed operation.
Ashore, on the Bonstocknian beaches, things weren't going so much better. Though twenty thousand were getting ashore, and a decent beachhead had been established, 25mm machine guns were causing heavy losses. Bonstocknian soldiers began shooting at them with Javelin and TOW missiles. Then the Roman F-35s swooped in, along with their mine dispensing choppers. Bonstocknian Avenger gunners could only fire so many Stinger missiles. About a thousand Bonstocknians had been killed, and that seemed just the start.
An Air Force engineering battalion managed to land on its LCACs, and, while the Marines kept trading fire with the Romans, the airmen tried to drive their trucks loaded with airbase matting to try to build a meager airbase on the beachhead. A Navy construction battalion also landed, and began building a small port facility, so that Army troops would be able to land when the Marines had finished their job.

Delta POWs…
The Deltas put a little resistance when the guards were pushing them around. Now it was their time to escape. They stopped in front of the enemy, then they flipped the guards on their back and pulled out the guards’ knife and stabbed them. Then the Deltas grabbed the enemy’s helmets, body armor, guns, and explosives. The pulled the keys and opened the doors. The Deltas dragged the bodies in to the jail cell and then locked the door. When that task was done, They pulled out the enemy’s bayonets and fixed it on their rifles. The started their path to escape the camp and to find the communications room. They started to destroy all enemy cameras and alarms, if they existed.
Skogby Forests…
OCC: Yes, I paradropped heavy artillery over the country. I should have thought about using towed howitzers for the mobility and firepower.
IC:
CSM Tyler radioed all the DIVARTYs to fire for effect. Artillery continued their fire along the enemy’s trench lines using HE and SADARM rounds. Tyler told the Artillery HQ to target the area were the Air Defense sites are. Tyler needs to get helicopter support to get out of their trench. The Artillery HQ confirmed the request, HQ used the pictures that were transmitted when Tyler asked for the fire mission. HQ directed 1/4th of the Crusader Artillery and HIMARS to impute the coordinates of where the Air Defense sites are. The Crusaders and HIMARS began their fire, each launching volleys of howitzer and rocket rounds. Counterbattery radars began scanning the air and ground to detect enemy artillery or mortars. Air Surveillance radars began searching the airspace to detect enemy aircraft.
Flodbro…
The Abrams detected thermal signatures and used the IFF Interrogator. They were the enemy. All the tank commanders popped out of their hatch and manned the fifty; they fired short bursts at the enemy and at the anti-tank teams. The Gunners shouted the order to the loader to load a HE round. The Tanks’ gunners aimed the 120mm gun and fired at all the heavy weapon nests. Then the gunners told the loader to reload, the gunners uses their 7.62mm co-axiel gun to engage any foot soldier in the middle of the street. The Tanks continued to fire the 120mm guns at the heavy weapons nest and enemy armor. 2 Abrams failed to eliminate the Anti-tank threat, they paid the price and were disabled by Javelin ATGMs.
12 helicopters that were orbiting around the city received radar & missile warnings. The helicopters immediately release counter measures, but the enemy’s missiles never fell for it and they all hit the rotors. While the helicopters were spinning out of control, enemy stingers heavy damaged the helos. The helos crashed on random building rooftops. A few Comanche helicopters received SAM warnings from Avenger HMMWVs. The Comanches’ weapons operator targeted the Avengers and sent the information to the Hellfires. Each Comanche fire one hellfire for each Avenger HMMWV. The rest of the helicopters were ordered to return to the Carriers, except the Command and Control Black hawks whom shall provide aerial suerveilance for the paratroopers.
The paratroopers, who breached the room, threw 2 Flashbang grenades. The waited for the grenades to explode, then they ran inside to occupy the left and right side of the room. Cpl. Arjun occupied the left and PFC Franco occupied the right. Both of the Romans deactivated their adaptive camouflage and fired a few bursts at the 2 Bonstockians whom were blinded. After the enemy was killed, both of the Romans dragged their comrades inside the room. Cpl. Arjun had a problem his adaptive camouflage went haywire, but both of the Romans’ situational awareness detected at least 4 Bonstocknians who are coming to their position. PFC Franco went out the door to plant a few small C4 explosives. He used string that he found, to make trip wires. The charges and trip wires are so small and invisible that the enemy would probably get surprised. Both of the Romans will hide at left and right corner and ambush the survivors, then they will make their escape. If the enemy found the explosives, both of them will fire a few air bursting grenades and throw 2 frag grenades
The mortar teams were almost running out of ammo, so they radioed the Northeast fleet to replenish them. The Airborne Command ordered a few CH-53E Super Stallions from a LHD from the 2nd MEU.
While the Romans were using guerrilla warfare against the enemy, a couple Bonstocknians soldiers step into the shadows expecting to hunt Romans as deer. Romans hiding at every possible place waiting for Bonstocknians to pass by, so the Romans can sneak behind them and jab them with their K-Bar knife. When the enemy pass by a few Romans, the Romans quietly snuck behind the enemy and grabbed them enemy and covered their mouths and jabbed them with the knife. Then they dragged the bodies to where the Romans were hiding. The Bonstocknians in the front turned around to see that their comrades are missing. Then the Romans who are hiding, snuck behind the enemy and knifed them.
At the southern part of the city, Paratroopers of the 3rd/3rd Airborne were trapped and they have to relieve and rejoin the other paratroopers some around the city. The Brigade Commander ordered a few engineer squads to place demolition charges on the obstacles, so the rest of the brigade can pass in. If the engineers were not available, paratroopers can use their RPGs, C4 charges, or the HMMWVs can ram through the obstacles.
Enemy machine gun nests trapped a few Roman squads whom were part of the trapped brigade. The enemy killed 3 Romans and injured 6, so a few Romans had to dodge the bullets to drag their comrades out of the crossfire, while squads provided covering fire. A few Riflemen with OICWs used their laser designators and designated the machine gun nests for the mortar teams to destroy. After the mortar teams received the designation, the mortar teams began dropping a dozen rounds and smoke rounds for every machine gun nest that were designated by the paratroopers. The other squads flank the other way either to hunt down enemy machine gun nest to safely let the brigade through or ambush the machine gun nests through multiple angles of fire.
Even if the 3rd/3rd Airborne breached all the obstacles, they will have trouble even if they use guerrilla warfare. They would need more soldiers to help them out. Since there was no contact with the rest of the 3rd Airborne and 4th Airborne to help them out, the closest military force were the MEUs. The Airborne Brigade Commander phoned the 2 remaining MEUs to conduct an assault to seize the Flodbro port and airport.

Marines on and off the beach, north of Skogby…
The MEU’s Engineer Platoon began making barriers for the marines, tanks, anti-aircraft and artillery. While the Engineers were building the barriers, Marines were to provide protection for the engineers, and themselves. The marines then set up camouflage netting for Artillery, MBTs, EFVs, LAVs, and command vehicles. Navy Corpsmen arrived by LCACs to patch up injured marines. Resupply trucks arriving along side with the Corpsmen in the LCACs supply the MEUs with ammo and food.
While the marines remained on the beach, Scouts quietly began observing the enemy. They crawled while in the prone position to hide in the brush. They made sure that they were invisible using a combination of their adaptive camouflage and the environment. They use the camera mounted on their helmet to photograph and film what the enemy is doing and transmitting them to various command elements and every Roman soldier at the location.
Northeast Fleet…
The Flight Commander of the Dictator Fleet decided that 3/4ths of the aircraft all ready launched to return to the carriers to switch the combat load from bomber to air superiority mission. There were many threats from the enemy, because a lot of Roman aircraft were being shot down.
The Flight Commander wanted to suppress all enemy air defenses, so Roman attack helos will be able to help out the paratroopers in Skogby forests. The commander wanted to have the coordinates of where the air defense sites are located. The commander accessed all the images from the launched tomahawks that were destined to Skogby. The Flight Control staff organized all the images and the coordinates of where the air defense sites. Then they formed a program containing all the coordinates. The Flight Commander wanted the UCAV to conduct SEAD operations, so no pilot would be sacrificed. The UCAVs will be fitted with Radar Jammers, Reconaissance pods, and HARM targeting pods. The PGMs will be HARM, JDAM, AMRAAM, Sidewinders, and other PGMs. The Flight Commander ordered all the carriers to each prepare and launch 12 UCAVs. The UCAVs will be escorted by the Super Hornets and JSFs until they can manage on their own.
East Bonstockian beaches…
300 Hornets and JSF ran out of missiles, but had little chance to use their 20mm and 25mm gattling guns and were destroyed. A few hundred fighters where damaged. The other fighters used their evasive tactics to dodge and trick the enemy’s missiles to destroy enemy fighters. They also used their gattling guns when they had the chance. The fighters with AAM load carefully fired their missiles and gattling guns and used their countermeasures to increase their survivibilty. The Sidewinders and AMRAAM missiles that missed their targets due to the enemies’ slickness, maneuvered back on course to reengage enemy fighters. The fighters had no way to overwhelm the enemy. They had to turn back to escape the enemy fighters, but let the missiles attack the enemy. Hopefully the AEGIS destroyers and cruisers will try to protect them.
2 EFVs and 2 LAVs at each strike point were destroyed by enemy anti-tank fire. The Commanders wondered why the white smoke isn’t working. It struck to them that the Warthogs are using thermal imaging to successfully target the EFVs and LAVs. The Commanders ordered their gunners to launch a few M90 smoke grenades that would temporarily confuse the enemy’s IIR sensors and visual sights until every goddamn Roman vehicle is off the beach. Then every EFV and LAV fire their 35mm and 25mm guns, using sensor fused rounds to create a mobile AAA. The sensor fused rounds burst in the air, spewing armor-piercing fragments in the air. The purpose of this is to heavily damage or destroy enemy aircraft. The EFVs targeted and fired their Javelin missiles at the warthogs, since the hogs were in targeting range of the Javelin missiles. The commanders were given their orders from the MEU Command to get out; they have to abort the mission to breach the country. So the EFVs and LAVs fire a few more M90 smoke grenades and turned around a quickly headed to the water while the smoke temporarily blinded the enemy, but continued to create AAA fire against enemy aircraft.
The frogmen on all the strike points make it out of the beach with all the equipment and their injure comrades. They swam to the SDVs and made sure that everyone is present and are receiving medical attention.
While the Comanches were hovering beyond the enemy’s trench firing Hydra rockets and hellfires. The weapons operators received alarms from their Radar Warning Receivers, because the enemy is using their SAMs. The operators told their pilots to close the internal weapons bays to avoid the enemy radar from detecting them, thanks to the stealthy body and radar absorbing material. The operators fired their 25mm gattling guns at the enemy soldiers whom were about to fire their stinger missiles. When the Comanches were firing at the enemy’s position, the army and marine command elements ordered all the Comanches to abort because the situation is worsening by the second. But before they were to return, the Comanche weapons operators used their laser designators to target the enemy soldiers whom were in the trench. The coordinates were sent to the SSGN Ohio submarines, the submarine weapon specialists fired several dozens of Tomahawk missiles at the designated targets. Then the comanches left when their targets were ‘lit’. They flew to the LPD as the same with the EFVs and LAVs.
A few miles away, Operators on the LPDs received aircraft warnings. The warnings were traced at the Bonstocknian beaches. The operators targeted the enemy aircraft and sent the information to the ESSM and RAM anti-aircraft missiles. After the targets were locked, the operators punched the fire button. Then scores of SAMs left the VLS cells and RAM missile canisters. Weapon crews prepare to resupply the VLS cells and RAM canisters.
East Bonstocknian Waters…
On one of the CVN-21 Carriers.
The flagstaff was going to need a way a huge force to breach the country, since the Marine battalion, north of Skogby, will have difficulty maneuvering through the country. So the second breach might help. The Admiral gave specific orders to his flagstaff to contact Air Force, Naval, and Marine Chiefs of Staff. The staff followed the orders and began contacting them.
Since the Bonstocknians beach fortress and air force would be difficult, a Vice Admiral phoned the Air Force Chiefs of Staff to send bombers to conduct bombing mission to eliminate the East Bonstocknian Beach Fortress and help out all Roman ground forces. They would have to bomb enemy air force bases to destroy runways, hangers, command and control buildings, and other important structures, because enemy fighters are destroying friendly fighters. Roman fighters will conduct air superiority missions incase the enemy pops up to intercept the bombers or the enemy get a chance to attack any Roman forces. The RAFC responded by saying that they will prepare 50 B-2A Spirit, 75 B-1B Lancers, and 200 F/A-22A Raptors as escorts. The bad news is that they will take 9 hours to prepare, and 20 hours to arrive. So, the carrier groups will have to hold on.
Another Vice Admiral was given his orders to call the Navy’s Chiefs of Staff. He is to ask them to send a few Battle Strike Groups but no carriers. The Admiral wanted to boast the firepower and air defense. But the Groups will take hours to prepare and a week, 2 tops to arrive. He also asked them to send resupply ships to resupply the carrier groups and ground forces. He even asked, that they should send more Carrier Air Wings to replace the destroyed aircraft.
A Rear Admiral told the Marine Corps’ Chiefs of Staff about their current situation and that they will have trouble with the Bonstocknian Coastal Fortress. The Generals understood the problem that the MEUs will trouble with the bunkers. So HQ decided that they will prepare a few MEBs to help out the MEUs. The Marine Staff suggested that they direct all the Marines to capture a city and its port and airport. This way, no marine would have to strive to capture the Bonstocknian Fortress. Then all the armored cavalry regiments would act as follow on forces and more Roman forces would be able to unload. Then every roman soldier will have a chance to engage the enemy.
Before anymore information was sent, officers in the control tower phoned the admirals. The control tower received messages from AEW and ELINT aircraft. The messages contained the coordinates and electronic transmission from enemy aircraft and the carriers they came from. Then, the control tower sent all the coordinates to every destroyer and cruiser so they can prepare the air defense shield. Air control then prepared all the carriers to each launch 15 Super Hornets and 15 JSF that have been loaded with AMRAAM and Sidewinders. MEUs will also launch the same number of aircraft each carrier is to launch. They will have to launch all the aircraft as quickly as possible, so they can somewhat get the upper hand. The Admiral wanted to have every group to send 4 Seawolfs and 4 Virginia submarines to follow the coordinates of where the carriers are located.

Roman Republic…
Julius Caesar AFB…
The police negotiators constantly used propaganda to make the enemy surrender peacefully, and they will be sent back home.
When a UGV Robo-soldiers were throw inside the hospital, they trekked through the floor trying to find and engage the enemy. The UGVs hid at a corner; they extended their robotic arm at the edge of the doorway. The operators controlling the UGVs used the optic cameras to spot enemy soldiers in a stressful situation. So, the operators aimed the machine guns and began firing at the enemy.
East Egyptian Beaches…
The men were trying their best to eliminate the enemy. A lieutenant lifted his helmet visor and used his binoculars to observe the beach. For some reason, the enemy is building an airfield and a small base. He had to ran to colonel to tell him the bad news, because their no way in hell he could radio the colonel, because the command center was destroyed.
“Comrade Colonel, we have a situation…The enemy is building an airfield and a small base.”
“Goddamn, these Bonstocknians must be spineless to build something while under fire.”
“Yes, I agree…What shall we do?”
“I want you to use the SOFLAM designator to find and send coordinates to land and naval artillery. I also want you to send coordinates to bombers to demo the entire enemy.”
“Yes, sir!”
A SFC rushed over to the Colonel. The almost collapsed because he had to run and dodge enemy fire. He took a deep breath and told the Colonel his bad news.
“Comrade Colonel…We have a major situation!”
“What is it, Comrade sergeant?”
“The enemy has breached the country. They are leaking at different locations. We have no machine guns to engage the enemy.”
“Is it possible to use the aircraft machine guns, Artillery, bombing, or any thing?”
“No, Comrade Colonel! If we use anything that makes a big boom near the bottleneck where the enemy is breaching in, our men whom are near the bottleneck trying to defend the beach will get killed. The only thing that will defeat the enemy in the bottleneck, are fighter aircraft machine guns. We can use bombs and artillery when the enemy is beyond the bottleneck. What shall we do, sir?”
“Yes, Comrade Sergeant. I understand your dilemma, our men will continue to fire at the enemy on the beach to prevent more soldiers and vehicles from entering the bottlenecks. ”
After the order was given, the SFC ran nearby machine gunners to tell them the order that the colonel told him.
The Colonel ordered Sgt. Wheeler to call back the all the fighters to the coordinates were the enemy is leaking in. The Colonel even told him to call for bombers and Warthogs.
The Air Force Command responded by saying that they will send a squadron of 25 B-52H BUFFs all equipped with dumb, cluster, Harpoons, torpedoes, and sensor fused bombs. Their mission is to bomb the whole beach to eliminate the every Bonstockian on the beach and conduct anti-ship and anti-submarine warfare. They will also send 300 A-10C Warthogs to deal with the leakers and enemy troops still on the beach. All the hogs will be armed with cluster bombs, general-purpose bombs, sidewinders, and of course its DU 30mm gattling cannon.
The BUFFs will take 2 hours to prepare and 20 minutes to prepare the hogs. They will take off from an air force base south of Egypt.
Only 3 hours and 45 minutes until the 3 Armored Cavalry Regiments arrive. They were getting delayed because there is so much destruction to the roads and civil engineers and construction workers blocked the roads.
Constant artillery fire from the towed howitzers rain over the beaches. The Artillery crew received the coordinates from the SOFLAM designator. Some of the howitzers were adjusted to target the Bonstocknians whom were build and airfield and a base. They loaded and rammed the rounds and fired them creating short bursts of 4 rounds per minute.
Red Sea, near the canal…
The AEGIS operators detected multiple threats incoming. The air defense specialists identified the tomahawks as foe. They fired SM-3 and ESSM missiles against those threats. They launched torpedoes to deal with the enemy torpedoes, the idea is to detonate the torpedo at the heart of the enemy’s torpedo barrage and destroy them.
Laser CIWS and RIM-116 RAM were activated incase enemy missiles breached the Air defense. 18 cruisers and destroyers tried to destroy the tomahawks and also tried to decoy the torpedoes, but they breached the defense and destroyed them. The other ships were quickly trying to evade and intercept all enemy missiles.
Submarines were trying to decoy all torpedoes using countermeasures. The Submarine Commanders quickly ordered his men in the torpedo rooms to launch torpedoes against enemy ships, submarines, and torpedo barrage.
Then every vessel retaliated by firing more Tomahawks, Harpoons, and torpedoes. The Commanders of the fleets called Naval HQ to send more vessels because it’s going to be one hell of a fight. They would need Marine, Navy and Air Force aircraft to destroy leakers.
Egyptian Airspace…
An AWACS bird patrolling and scanning the airspace. The operators detected several enemy threats heading towards Julius Caesar Air Force Base. The operators counted and identified 24 MH-53 helos and 24 F-35 JSF. The Commander phoned the Air Force Command to send interceptors to destroy the aircraft. Command responded and told an Air Force base at south Egypt whom they are launching the Lancers and Warthogs. The AFB immediately launched 90 F/A-22A Raptors and all armed with AMRAAM and Sidewinder missiles.

Cairo, Egypt…
The Egyptian government called the National Guard to prepare to prevent the enemy from spreading further into the Fatherland. The National Guard will mobilize active duty men whom are following their 6-month active duty rotation. They will try to prepare at least 4 Mechanized Infantry Divisions and/or 8 Armored Cavalry Regiments.
Pentagon, Rome …
OCC: May I have information about your various airfield, airports, beach, and ports for intelligence and when I begin the assault. I want to try this tactic, for future RP wars.
IC:
The Army General of the Chiefs of Staff wanted to send Airborne units to meet the request of Major General Patel in Bonstock. He discussed with his staff that they should send a few Airborne Divisions & Army Ranger Battalions to raid and seize an airfield or an international airport somewhere in Bonstock. They want to seize the airport because they need to send more land forces and provide a home for the Roman Air Force. After the seizure of the airport, they will send a few Armored Cavalry Regiments and Mechanized Infantry Divisions as a follow on force. They would need a joint support from the Marine Corps. The Marines will be a temporary follow on force and will secure a beach or port. They Marines may help the airborne units by sending Marines to help seize the targeted airfield. The Airborne Divisions and Ranger Battalions will train and use the intel provide by various intelligence agencies.
The Marine Commandant was phoned by the General of the Army about the General’s proposal. The Commandant agreed to his proposal, but had doubts about the MEUs in the Northeast Fleet and Southeast Fleet, whom are still awaiting orders to invade and help out the marines north of Skogby. The Commandant wanted to beef up the existing MEUs with MEBs. There they can hold the beach or port and relieve the airborne units’ burden. They would still need a lot of intel to create the assault. His men would need to train a little more to prepare for the assault.
After the conversation with the Commandant, the General would need to phone the Admiral of the Navy to send a few Carrier Groups to help with the assault. 2 Aircraft Carriers will replace their Air Wings with attack and transport helicopters from Corps Aviation and Airborne Aviation. The Admiral did not like the proposal because the helicopters will be destroyed because the enemy fixed wing. So the Admiral wanted to send one carrier with a Carrier Air Wing for each Carrier Group. This will help protect the group and the helicopters.
Then the Army General called the General of the Air Force. The Army General wanted a lot of C-17s to transport a lot heavy equipment and paratroopers to make the assault a success. He wanted escorts to fend of enemy aircraft and destroy enemy air defenses. The escorts will be F/A-22A Raptors, EA-18G Growlers, G-105 Groza, F-35A JSF, and F-45 J-UCAV and will be equipped with AMRAAM and Sidewinders. Bombers like B-2A Spirit and B-1B Lancers will bomb enemy units at the beach, suppress air defenses, and any other things that might come in their way. They will even use AC-130U Spooky and A-10C Warthogs for Close Air Support.
After discussing with all the top generals, everyone that will participate in the assault will be put on alert when the time is right and intelligence is correct. Before the airborne units paradrop, a few Combat Controllers from the Roman Air Force Special Operations Command and a few Special Forces Operators will paradrop first to coordinate the landing site for all the airborne units and coordinate air support. This way, no paratrooper will be land in the wrong area. Every Paratrooper and Ranger will be equipped with their standard weapons. The heavy weapons will be XM312 .50-cal MGs, XM307 25mm MGs, Javelin ATGMs, Stinger SAMs, Predator ATGMs, TOW ATGMs, and Mortars. The vehicles they are going to use to make the airfield seizure a quick success are Ground Mobility Vehicles and HMMWVs. They will be armed with heavy weapons. They will bring along Robo-soldier Unmanned Ground vehicles to support the Romans.

Unfortunatly for the prisoners, they were being led by multiple guards with M-4 carbines at ready. A few got flipped over, but when that happened, the other guards simply fired a bullet with tranquilizer inside. All the prisoners fell asleep, and were instantly taken to maximum security concrete cells while unconscious.

And I probably should've called you on this before, but how the hell can you parachute 70-ton M-1 tanks into combat?
ic:
Near the Roman artillery
"This is Avenger battery India Foxtrot One-Niner-Zero. We're taking heavy artillery fire. We've got 4 launchers out. Repeat, four launchers out."
General Frank Gordon, commander of the Bonstocknian Forces around Skogby, looked at the screen and heard the message, as it was forwarded from the direct-reporting 363rd Air Defense Artillery Brigade, which protected Skogby and had 80 Avenger units around the Skogby dropzones, fourty of which had been destroyed in the barrage. "God dammit, blast that artillery!" He yelled over the radio.
A small brigade of infantry, the 2nd Brigade of the 89th Infantry Division, was on standby in the area. They soon heard their callsign over the radio. "Zulu-Golf 2, proceed to designated areas and engage the enemy. Your targets will be the enemy artillery. You will have air and artillery support."
A radioman, Sergeant Alex Palmer, heard this message. "Colonel," he said, turning to the Brigade CO, "We've been told to move out."
The Colonel looked at the sceen, seeing the coordinates of the target come up. "All right. Let's load up and move out. Get some artillery and bombs on that, to soften it up."
"Yes, sir."
Meanwhile, a surface-to-surface missile battery, hundreds of miles away, let loose a volley of a few dozen Tomahawk missiles, with fragmentation warheads that detonated right above the Roman artillerymen, showering them with lead and shrapnel. About thirty seconds later, dozens of Humvees and CV-90 Fighting Vehicles rode up, machine guns blazing as soldiers dismounted and began storming the artillery positions.

ooc: Here's a map I created of the region you're talking about, labelling major towns and military installations. It might have been sized down a bit however. If it's unreadable I'll try to make a larger version.
http://tinypic.com/b7gf9d.jpg
Anyway, the region is mostly a backwater coastal farming area. Mostly large wheat fields or cow pastures, with backroads farming communities all over the place, most of them simply a collection of farms and houses, with some gas stations along Highway 2. It's perfect tank country. Unless you were born here, you usually don't come here unless travelling through it on the way to another place. It's only real strategic importance is that it connects Zecrostrand to Northern Bonstock (and, hence, Bonstock to all it's major land borders, so isolating it and combining that with a naval blockade would in theory sever Bonstock from the outside world).
Along the coast snakes Highway 2, giving the region the name "Highway 2 Southern Coast." The only town here that truely qualifies as a city would be Abbeville (pop. approx. 2 million). Yet, in the eyes of a true city dweller from Port Yuko (pop. over 1 billion), this place is a little country pasture. No building is more then ten stories tall, and though it has an international airport, service is only to larger Bonstocknian cities and some destinations in Zecro. Fort Abbeville, nearby, is home to the Bonstocknian 114th Infantry Division, tasked mostly with guarding the northern part of this strip of coast during this wargame. To the south is the town of Clearwater (pop. 300,000), significant for the nearby Clearwater Air Force Base, home to the 189th Tactical Fighter Wing, with its F-22s defending the area's airspace along with the Fort Abbeville based 294th Air Defense Artillery Brigade. Futher south is the town of Haram (pop 400,000), and Haram Air Force Base, with A-10 Warthogs and C-17's of the 56th Fighter Wing and 67th Airlift Wing. Finally the road leads to Springfield City, with nearby Fort Springfield the home of another Infantry Division, the 60th, and eventually along to the backwater farming town of Doyana. In the interior, there are more farming towns, such as Wheaton, Veronia, Buffalo Falls, and Lexy.
There are lots of airports in the region, but most are mere dirt strips used by crop dusters and other light prop planes. The Air Force bases are large and extensive facilities, providing the best possible support for combat operations. They are, however, heavily defended, usually by an Army Infantry Brigade from one of the nearby divisions, plus Air Force security personnel. Abbeville International Airport is smaller by comparison, and was clearly designed for light commercial traffic. However, it is much more lightly defended. All around the region, but especially around Abbeville, Springfield City, and military installations, there are Patriot missile batteries aiming towards the sky, and along the coast Bonstocknian infantrymen have dug in with machine guns, artillery, barbed wire, and mines. Abbeville has the largest port facilities in the region, but cannot support large scale carrier operations in the way Zecrostrand and Port Yuko can, being not a large scale shipping terminal.
The most remarkable thing about the region may be the hardy people who inhabit it. Unlike the cosmopolitan and educated urbanites of Port Yuko and other cities, most people here are very simple and deeply patriotic, in a way similar to the American south. People work hard, marry young, are family oriented, hold values dear, and a sizable majority actually attend churches regularly (60% here, as oppossed to about 2% nation-wide). This deeply conservative pocket would probably deeply resist any invasion.

Flodbro
Two of the Bonstocknians inside the room were stunned by the flashbangs, but were wearing sunglasses, which protected their eyes. They were able to shoot back, but that didn't protect them from being shot.
Roman mortars fell all over Bonstocknian machine gun positions, killing or wounding at least fifty Bonstocknians. "Medic!" many machine gunners cried as they were wounded. Medics, attached to individual platoons, quickly came up to bandage up the gunners, so that some would be able to fire. Replacements were brought up from the Flodbro railroad station and airport to take the place of those killed, and those seriously wounded were evacuated to hospitals.
Twelve Avenger Humvees were knocked out in a few minutes by the choppers, but the Bonstocknians with their Stinger missile mounts held their advantage clear, and kept moving quickly around the city streets and firing at the helicopters. Meanwhile, a squadron of A-10 Warthogs, flying from a highway south of Flodbro, began strafing Roman ground troops and taking shots at Roman helicopters. Eight of the twenty four planes recieved coordinates of Roman mortar positions from Bonstocknian ground observers. They quickly targetted the positions with chain guns and missiles.
Aboard an E-3 Sentry north of Flodbro
"Sir, I think we've got some more bandits coming in."
"Let's have a look, Airman. Where?"
"They're coming from off the coast, bearing 240 degrees from our position and about thrity miles out. They appear to be closing at around 200 miles per hour towards the Flodbro metropolitan area."
"That's way to slow for a fighter. They must be helicopters." He turned to another Airman. "Do we have any planes in Flodbro?"
"Yes, sir. We have a squadron of A-10s orbinting overhead, strafing."
"Divert them to intercept immediately."
"But sir, A-10s are ground attackers!"
"They have Stinger missiles and chain guns to shoot at enemy choppers. Now send them in."
"Yes sir." The Airman got on his communications. "Mike November, this is Big Bird. Divert to intercept bandits at 297 degrees for 25, two hundred."
Aboard one of the A-10s, a Bonstocknian pilot called back. "We copy that. Let's have some fun, boys."
The A-10s flew over Flodbro, and on towards the helicopters and their precious cargo, their chain guns ready to shoot up the Roman CH-53s.

Around Julius Caeser Airbase
"November Foxtrot 1, this is Big Bird. We've got incoming bandits on your position. Drop to as low an altitude as possible."
"Roger sir," said a pilot aboard one of the Bonstocknian MH-53 choppers. "India Foxtrot 1, intercept enemy fighters and distract them."
A pilot on one of the escorting F-35s radioed back. "Roger. Vectoring to intercept." Twelve of the F-35s flew to intercept incoming Roman fighters. The choppers flew down low, some to about 3 meters off the ground, over the desert sands of the Sinai, unsing their thermal imaging to see any dangerous terrain ahead.
"Airborne Task Force Hotel, this is November Foxtrot en route for dustoff."
"Roger, November Foxtrot. We need extraction now."
Suddenly missiles flew overhead. Two of the choppers were taken out instantly, while close escorting fighters intercepted enemy bandits. Then the airbase came into view overhead. Bonstocknian soldiers on the ground were busy machine gunning enemy speakers, and tossing grenades at the little UGVs the Romans threw in. The F-35s fired a volley of JSOW missiles at the Roman anti-aircraft batteries on the base, so that the MH-35s would be able to pick up as many soldiers as they could. The choppers landed on the hospital roof. Soldiers barracaded the doors, and wired them with explosives, then quickly loaded onto the choppers. Each chopper landed for about twenty seconds, picking up all the soldiers they could before departing. Within a few minutes, all the Bonstocknian airborne soldiers had been picked up.
"November Foxtrot 1 to Big Bird. Dust off complete. Returning to base."
"Roger. Return to base."
The mighty choppers flew off into the night, flying inches to the ground to avoid Roman radars, and, hopefully, make it back to a Hospital ship in time. The F-35s continued harrying the Roman interceptors.
On the beaches, Bonstocknian engineers hurried as fast as they could to erect the structures. Large landing barges unloaded the first of the tanks from the 1st Armored Division, tasked with spearheading the invasion. Madsen matting was spread at the new airbase, quickly getting a runway online. The 24th Fighter Wing, with 36 F-22s and 36 A-10s, plus a few tankers, E-3 AWACS aircraft, and some electronic warfare planes, quickly landed at the new base, but would need time rearm and refuel. A Bonstocknian cargo ship, with all the munitions and jet fuel they'd need for a month, was off shore. As soon as the Naval engineers were able to set up the dock, Air Force trucks began transporting the supplies. Included was a battery of twenty four Patriot PAC-3 missile launchers, which were set up, albeit under heavy fire, around the new airbase. Bonstocknian Leopard tanks advanced, supported by Marines and army soldiers, to extend the base perimiter. Twelve of the hundred-odd tanks unloaded were quickly knocked out in this effort, as were about fifty soldiers. But dread began appearing on Bonstocknian faces that looked at the ominous dots on the radar screens ahead. An Air Force general, aboard one of the E-3s, gave an order. "All fighters intercept. That includes A-10s."
As ordered, the A-10s, just like the F-22s, were loaded with Sidewinder and AMRAAM missiles, as Patriot missiles ringed the facility supported by Avenger units with Stinger missiles on their Humvees. As the bandits approached, they flew to intercept the B-52s and A-10s. Perhaps this effort, however suicidal, would at least help the base survive another day.

OCC: I'll post the remain paragraph about the airfield seizure and beach assault plan later on.
POW Camp…[/]
As the Deltas were running, some how the enemy was put on alert. The Deltas had to double time it to find the exits. As they were running, 2 deltas were shot by the enemy tranquilizers, so a few operators told the rest of the team to hoof it to the exit and they will provide covering fire and will catch up. So the Deltas agreed and they left.
[I]Roman Artillery site, Bonstockian National Park …
OCC: Sorry I forgot to RP my artillery drop and other heavy drops. Maybe you do have the right to ignore them. But the artillery went to the national park after my airborne divisions broke out of the encirclement in skogby. I used C-5s and C-17s to paradrop the Abrams, but forgot to mention that these transports carried the Abrams.
IC:
The air surveillance radars detect enemy missiles coming towards their positions. The infomation was sent to the Avenger HMMWVs to prepare their .50-cal and Stinger missile canisters. When the enemy missiles flew over their position, the Avenger gunners fired stinger missiles and .50-caliber proximity fused machine guns. As the Avenger humvees were busy, enemy vehicles arrived to the scene.
The paratrooper and military police companies quickly rushed to their fighting positions. The paratroopers began firing and reloading their Javelin and Predator ATGMs. Mortar teams set up their mortars and began dropping mortar rounds. The Commanders of the DIVARTYs radioed to Command that they are being engaged and asked what they should do. Command gave a few possibilities like that they should retreat or try to fight and retreat. The Commanders asked their staff to use satellite imaging to figure out where the enemy is coming, so the DIVARTYs can find a way to escape. The Crusaders and HIMARS began punching in coordinates of the enemy’s location and began firing at them. HIMARS began firing rockets at the enemy missile batteries’ location that the Counterbattery radar intercepted and at the enemy soldiers and vehicles.
MTVR truck drivers began shouting at the artillery crew to everyone to load up now, and let the artillery and Avenger humvees prove the fire power and air defense. If the Avengers are of stingers, crews will use stinger launchers. Machine guns on top of trucks and artillery will provide defense. Truck crew popped out of the trucks and began firing their OCSW 25mm machine guns at the enemy. Once everyone packed their equipment, the trucks began moving out, every truck began following the artillery tanks as they bulldoze the enemy with artillery shells and machine gun fire.
Skogby…
CSM Tyler whom was inside his Command Center began listening to radio calls by the DIVARTYs
“What the situation there?” radioed Tyler
“We are being engaged! The enemy must have found our location. We have began leaving, we will find a new location to provide artillery support.” Replied the commander of the DIVARTYs
“Understood. Hope you make it.”
Tyler switched the frequency over to marine artillery. Tyler read the coordinates to begin firing at the enemy air defense site and enemy trenches. Since Tyler was informed by Command the Armored Cavalry Regiments will quickly rush over to relieve them.
Marine held beach north of Skogby…
The Engineer Platoon had finished their job in creating barriers for the marines. They mission was to create a small port so the Armored Cavalry Regiments can land. With no supplies to make a port. The only way to get the regiment on to the beach is to use armored vehicle-launched bridges and LCACs to create a ramp from the RO/RO ships to the beach. The Engineer Platoon is to begin creating a flat surface and let the Armored Cavalry’s Engineer Company build a port out of wood.
Flodbro…
The Comanche pilots received SAM radar warnings. The pilots punched in the coordinates of were the enemy SAM teams are. Then the Weapons Operators targetted them and then fired their 25mm gattling guns and a few hydra rockets. Then the lead Comanche ordered the other Comanches to retreat back to the Carriers. When they were about to leave, enemy Warthogs were engaging them. 3 Comanches were heavily damaged and losing fuel.
As the Mortar teams were popping round, a few mortarmen heard screaming nosies and gattling guns. The mortarmen quickly tipped over their mortars and dove to find cover. Their ammunition pallets blew up because of the enemy gattling guns. The shrapnel from the mortars injured the mortar crews.
A few Stinger teams rolled out of their humvees. The stinger gunners and crew chiefs exited their vehicles, paratroopers popped out of the top of the humvees and manned the OCSW machines guns to provide cover for the stinger teams. The stinger teams received radio calls from friendly soldiers and aircraft. Then they aimed their stinger launchers to target the enemy Warthogs. The gunners squeeze the trigger and the stingers flew out of their canisters.
When the Super Stallion helos were about to fly over the land, when their radar was picking up warnings that enemy aircraft are coming to their position. The pilots radioed to all AEGIS Destroyers to hunt the aircraft down. Then the air defense operators punched in the coordinates and identified the enemy aircraft as Warthogs. Then the operators fired several rounds of SM-3 SAMs to the enemy aircraft coordinates. 20 Super Hornets were launched from the Carriers to escort the Super Stallions and defeat any new threats when the Super Stallions return back.
Northeast Fleet…
The Aircraft commander of the Dictator Fleet ordered the recall and cancellation of planned missions. The commander wanted to maintain the Fleet’s presence before they are called back home. The commander would like to have Super Hornets and JSFs to conduct air patrols. CSA, Sea Control planes will patrol the open seas around the Fleet to intercept submarines and ships. CSA, AEW will aid the Hornets and JSFs by scanning the air for enemy aircraft and also aid the AEGIS ships to intercept them and enemy missiles. Since past engagements with the enemy using anti-shipping missiles and other things the enemy did to sink the Aircraft Carriers.
Another mission is to move the entire fleet towards Flodbro. They were to move there because they are to provide fire support and air superiority. The fleet began to set sail to Flodbro and aircraft were launched to their specific missions.
Roman Republic…
Over Egyptian Airspace…
In the E-3 Sentry, operators continued tracking the enemy aircraft heading inward.
“Sir, The enemy MH-53 helos and F-35 JSFs are detaching their formations.” Radioed a Tech Sgt. “The JSFs are heading toward our Raptors.”
“Understood,” replied a Colonel. “Tell our fighters to launch AMRAAMs and we will guide them to engage the MH-53s and JSFs.”
“Understood, all fighters, prepare launching of AMRAAM and we guide them to the enemy helos and fighters.”
“Understood, AWACS.” Replied the lead pilot.
The fighter understanding the situation punched in the numbers to let AWACs control the AMRAAMs. Then the fired them. On the pilots’ radar enemy fighters began harassing the Raptors. The Pilots began firing Sidewinders and AMRAAMs.
On the E-8 J-STARS, operators scanning the East Egyptian Beach. The operators began scanning the enemy vehicles on the ground.
Julius Caesar Air Force Base…
The negotiators took cover when the enemy shot the speakers. Machine gunners on the hummers fired at the enemy machine gunners whom were near the building’s windows. The negotiators asked the other police officers to hand them the blow horns. Then again the negotiators cautiously began using their propaganda.
Egyptian National Guard Command…
The word was given that the National Guard was ordered to mobilize. The only active duty National Guard units are the 89th, 78th, and 91st Mechanized Infantry Divisions. Command radioed to the bases to mobilized their legionnaires.
Each Mechanized Division:
-78 M4 Command vehicles
-464 M2A3 Bradley IFVs
-548 M1A5 Abrams
-156 M3A3 Bradley CFVs
-288 AH-64D Longbow Apaches
-94 UH-60M Blackhawks
-64 RAH-66 Comanches
-64 CH-47F Chinooks
-4 EH-60 “Quick Fix” Blackhawks (EW)
-8 UH-60Q MEDEVAC Blackhawks
-216 Non-Line-of-Sight Cannons
-216 M270A1 MLRS
-48 LAV-AD
-96 Avenger Humvees
-3 M7 FIST-V
-500 HEMTT trucks
-1000 MTVR trucks
-2000 LV-08 trucks
-Engineer Brigade
-Chemical Company
-Military Intelligence Battalion
-Signal Battalion
-Military Police Battalion
-Logistical Support Groups
-20,000 Legionnaires
East Egyptian Beach…
The 3 Armored Cavalry Regiments quickly arrived near the destroyed coastal fortress. The tank crews began engaging the enemy tanks, IFV, infantry, etc. The self-propelled artillery units stayed near the M777 towed howitzers and they all began firing artillery rounds on the Egyptian beach.
The beach defenders had to evacuate the bunkers. The men began running to the nearest exits and head behind the Armored Cavalry Regiments.
The Warthogs and B-52s received information about the beach thanks to the J-STARs. But the J-STAR operators intercepted and identified enemy SAM sites. The operators send the coordinates to the Warthog and B-52 pilots. The B-52 crews switched on the electronic jamming system to jam the SAM sites. Some of the B-52s they begin to drop bombs on the SAM sites and let the Warthogs destroy the infantry, tanks, vehicles, and the newly built bases. Some B-52s began helping the Warthogs by bombing the same targets the Warthogs are trying to destroy. The rest of the B-52s flew over the ocean and began targeting and firing at the enemy ships using torpedoes and Harpoon missiles.

Skogby and artillery sites
Tomahawk missiles were being fired from hundreds of miles away, so HIMARs rockets did no good. Another volley quickly fired at them as Bonstocknian satellites tracked them using infrared vision. Night was falling, and the Bonstocknian soldiers were getting restless. Too long had the enemy been on their territory. It was time for a solution.
"Burn them!" a general cursed in Lord Harald's presence, meaning as an insult. And that gave the great tactician an idea.
Lord Harald replied, "Exactly. Pound them with napalm bombs and shells, and send in tanks and men with flamethrowers to get them out of their trenches once and for all."
A bold strategy of course. A full wing of B-52s loaded up with napalm bombs, and the Bonstocknian artillery surrounding the Skogby positions fired off its high-explosives rounds before trucks and trains managed to get in the full complement of napalm artillery rounds from the munitions factories of Skogby. Then the bombardment began at about three in the morning.
The bombs were dropped on specific places where they would burn the most and kill the most Roman soldiers, and destroy the vegetation. The bombardment of over a hundred guns and bombers dropped thousands of napalm-filled explosives, that would hopefully turn up the heat for the Romans.
When it was over, the forest around the Roman positions would be ablaze (or at least simulatedly ablaze), and the Roman positions burnt to a crisp. Then, on one direction, the Bonstocknian 1st Infantry Division, with its 150 tanks and 300 IFVs, quickly moved in on Roman trenches in one big column from the east, as the 6th Airborne Division moved to the west of Roman positions to provide the anvil for the 1st ID's hammer. Half of the tanks and many of the men had flamethrowers to burn the Romans out of their trenches and bunkers.
The 2nd Brigade of the 83rd Infantry, which had assaulted the Roman artillery, withdrew slightly. As the Roman artillery probed through unfamliar terrain, the Bonstocknians set up an ambush along their route. Just infanry would participate. As the Roman artillery moved along, they came on a a small depression below a hill along the road. On the hill, ten Bonstocknian Humvees were waiting with TOW missiles. They quickly fired the missiles, which they optically guided using night-vision goggles, to hit the Roman self-proppelled howitzers. As soon as the missiles hit their mark, the Humvees fled into the night. The Romans had no choice but to continue along their route. As they stopped to fire their guns, A dozen or so teams of Bonstocknian infantrymen had staked out the side of the road. From camoflouged positions, they fired their Javelin missiles at the Roman guns at point-blank range, and then ran off, though at least six Bonstocknians were wounded and two killed in this effort. Still, the harassment continued.
Bonstocknian air defense sites stopped fireing and took cover for a while, hoping to prevent more casualties. Four Avengers were destroyed, but rail lines transported factory fresh and reserve ones straight from Skogby during the night, hoping to replenish the Bonstocknian air defense.

Beaches north of Skogby
The port of wood quickly became an attractive target for the Bonstocknians. Just as around the drop zones, artillery fired napalm shells, though not in as much quantity as most of the shells were being used around the drop zones. More shells were being manufactured in Port Yuko and Skogby.
Flodbro
Emboldened by the success of the Bonstocknian choppers at killing the Roman mortars, a column of Bonstocknian Leopard tanks rolls down the main road into the Roman-held part of town. On either side, small teams of infantrymen with grenades and submachine guns clear buildings of enemies so that the tanks could pass by freely. The soldiers jabbed open the rooms, and lobbed in fragmentation grenades to stun and wound the Romans. Then their submachine guns finished the job in a few seconds. A rolling artillery bombardment preceeded them, targetting individual buildings right in front of the tanks and infantry. A-10s continued to fly cover, though a few of them were damaged and one destroyed by Roman missiles.
Meanwhile, a squadron of Bonstocknian F-22s took off from Flodbro International Airport, and quickly flew cover for the A-10s so the Roman F/A-18s wouldn't get anywhere near.
POW camp
The exits were quickly sealed off, the doors locked and barracaded and guarded by a dozen soldiers each, all of them armed with tranqulizer bullets and tazers. A few convicted murderers and thieves asked the Romans to let them out if they could, but Bonstocknian soldiers deployed tear gas into the building to help quell the insurrection.
At sea
The Bonstocknian ships, having reppelled the Roman assault, quickly fled back to Bonstocknian ports to refuel and rearm in the protection of thick Bonstocknian AAA coverage. But naval forces in Flodbro and Port Yuko were quickly put on alert, and dozens of carriers and their escorts put out to sea to intercept the Romans.
Meanwhile, a few more carriers left in a giant convoy of over a hundred cargo ships in an attempt to resupply and reinforce the Bonstocknian troops in Egypt. A stream of C-17 formations, escorted by Bonstocknian F-22s kept flying by KC-10 refuelers, kept the Bonstocknians supplied and took out the wounded from Roman Republic.
In Roman Republic
Bonstocknian choppers ducked down and flew as fast as they could towards the sea. A few were damaged by the Romans, but all of them managed to get out to sea, and land on a hospital ship, where wounded men were despotited. Some of the more seriously wounded were taken to the Bonstocknian beachhead to be loaded onto the next C-17 transport.
All was soon quiet at Julius Caesar Airbase. The MH-53s had evacuated every last Bonstocknian. The base was back in Roman hands.

26-11-2005, 17:18
Bonstocknian Beachheads
Bonstocknian SAM sites were almost instantly jammed. They quickly turned off to avoid being targetted, though 6 of the 18 operational Patriot launchers were knocked out. However, Bonstocknian AAA sites were doing fairly well. The Bonstocknian expedition had brought along about 18 ZSU-23-4 Shlika anti-aitcraft artillery vehicles, which quickly engaged the Roman Warthogs. Yet four of them, along with about 50 other armored vehicles and two of the engineer's construction vehicles, were destroyed in the raid. Replacements continued to land on the beach.
At sea, Bonstocknian AEGIS ships fired SM-2 missiles at the inbound B-52s, trying to down the Roman bombers. Four destroyers were damaged by Harpoon missiles, and a cruiser was blown up by multiple hits.
Meanwhile, seeing the Roman Armored Cavalry be brought in, the Bonstocknians made a quick command descision. About seventy five LCACs were brought up to the beach from the Bonstocknian landing ships, virtually all the LCACs the Bonstocknians had, and they loaded a task force of 28 Leopard II tanks and 28 CV-90 IFVs from the Bonstocknian beaches, along with some assorted support trucks. The LCACs, in one wave, went around the Roman armored cavalry a few miles to the east. A quick volley of Tomahawk missiles knocked into any Roman bunkers just before the LCACs landed. The troops got out, and quickly took flamethrowers to any remaining bunkers. Then the tanks and infantry swung around, right into the rear of the Roman left flank. The CV-90s launched TOW missiles at Roman tanks and armored vehicles, and fired 40mm chain guns at any dismounted infantry, while the Leopards lobbed their 120mm HE-AT rounds at any vehicles in sight. Some of the CV-90s fired Stinger missiles at oncoming Warthogs.

POW Camp…[/]
The Delta Operators began running as fast as they can to find the nearest exit, they began ignoring the prisoner in the cells. Even if the Operators free them, they will be difficult to trust and it will delay their escape. The operators followed the hallways only to confront enemy guards firing tranquilizers and throwing tear gas. Sooner or later, all the operators were caught and tranquilized.
[I]Roman Artillery site, Bonstockian National Park …
The Trucks while on their route of escape were suddenly ambushed be the enemy. The men looked left and right to see were the concealed enemy were hiding at. A few ammunition trucks were blown up damaging the tanks and other trucks carrying the soldiers and artillery crewmen. The commanders, both in the same truck that got damaged by the blown up ammunition trucks, decided that it was useless to continue because their artillery force will be decimated and there is no point in sacrificing every last person. So the commanders told the drivers to stop the trucks and both of the commanders came out of their trucks and raised their hands into the black sky. Hopefully the enemy will see that all their men are surrendering rather than sitting ducks right for the picking.
“We Surrender, we don’t want the suffer anymore casualties. ”
One by one, all the artillery crewmen jumped out of their trucks and their tanks and began raising their hands into the air.
Skogby…
All the paratroopers were surprised when the first few bombs caught the trenches on fire. The trenches were pounded by bombs of fire. The Men began screaming as the fire enflamed their uniforms giving them severe burns. Thousands upon thousands of men were burned to death. The men who were already in the shelters before the enemy began the bombing ran out after the attack to put out the fire on their comrades using their shovels and began throwing soil on their comrades. Those who were not helped began rolling on the ground. So of the men who were suffering in pain were shot by their comrades to end their suffering.
A fire team of 4 men grabbed their rifles and machine guns while they were on fire, ran out of the trench and began firing their guns to avenge their dead comrades.
“Come and Fight!” shouted each of the men as they were charging and firing their rifles and machine guns, “Come and fight! While I live I will kill you!” The kept charging but were mowed down by enemy fire.
As the enemy came upon their trench, the men dropped their shovels and raised their hands in the air as a sign of their surrender, some of the men who were still on fire also raised their hands as far as the could. Hopefully the enemy will treat them better than living in those damn trenches.

Marines on and beyond the beaches, North of Skogby…
The Enginner platoon were under attack by napalm shells on their work. They were thankful their makeshift port was made out of wood, but it would have helped unload the cargo from the RO/RO ships. The counter battery radar for the Crusader Artillery detected and pinpointed the location of the artillery sites. So the crew of the Crusaders, loaded several anti-tank rounds and fired and sustained a fire of 5 rounds a minute.
The commander of the MEU (SOC) received distress calls from the paratroopers from the trenches. They even received a radio call from the Commander of all forces in Bonstock they there is no in rescuing the paratroopers, because the enemy outnumbers them. They were to load up on the Amphibious Assault ships and go home to recover.
Flodbro…
The enemy was overwhelming the paratroopers in the city, since they had lost their main artillery support, their mortars. They were low in ammunition and their moral what heading rock bottom. The only way they can survive is to surrender; it was the only honorable thing. One by one every roman soldier began surrendering to any Bonstocknian soldier they came to face.
In the air over Flodbro, The AEW aircraft operators picked up more enemy aircraft coming from Flodbro. They alerted the Aircraft Carrier personnel to sent more aircraft. The sailors of the 5 Aircraft Carriers each launched 20 Super Hornets and JSFs.
The Hornets and the Super Stallions that were already flying to Flodbro were told to turn back. They were told that the paratroopers in Flodbro have surrendered. The fighters turned back to defend the Carriers, if the enemy comes after the fleet.
The Admiral of the Fleet, realized from the recon photos of Flodbro from Recon Satellites that Rome’s presence is weakening. Now there is no way they can pull off a counter attack by Marines. They will have to play a defensive role. It was time for the fleet to leave because of the damages sustained from continuos enemy attacks. They first goal before leaving is to escort the MEUs and Logistic ships to the Southeast Fleet and then the fleet can leave for home to repair the damages.
Roman Republic…
Julius Caesar Air Force Base…
Seeing the sight of the enemy leaving the air force base made them feel proud that their efforts were not in vain. Defending the air force base cost a lot of lives. In celebration of their victory, everyone raised their rifles in the air and began firing round after round.
East Egyptian Beach…
The Armored Cavalry Regiments continued firing their cannons and also launching TOW missiles. Scouts in the M3 Cavalry Fighting Vehicles ran out of the ramp to recon the area and laser designate enemy forces. Three 3-man scout teams and 6 CFVs and 4 Abrams were destroyed by enemy tank fire. But the Scouts were not crippled, so the rest of the scouts used their laser designators mounted on their helmets. Their targets were MBTs, IFVs, and any other vehicles coming in their way. All the targets were lit and were sent to all the howitzers behind the lines to begin changing their coordinates. AH-64D Longbow Apaches and RAH-66 Comanches that were attached to the Armored Cavalry Regiments flew above the beach armed with Stingers, Hellfires, Hydra-70 rockets, and their cannons. They attacked the positions the Warthogs missed.
It only took a few seconds when the artillery crew received the coordinates. The men who manned the towed howitzer took a bit longer to change the direction of their howitzers, unlike the self-propelled howitzers. So, all the howitzers began loading their laser guided anti-tank rounds. One by one all the towed howitzers began firing a sustained fire of 4 rounds a minute. While the self-propelled artillery began a sustained fire of 7 rounds a minute. So the howitzers were going to run out of ammo, so the artillery officers called for more ammo.
After the mobilization of the 3 Mechanized Infantry Divisions, all the units began rushing to the beach area to repel the enemy. Thanks to the civil engineers and construction crew, all the streets and roads were clear. This made the job for the 3 MIDs easier. 1/2 the Legionaries boarded the Blackhawks and Chinooks. They then took off to the beaches. The rest of the legionaries boarded the Bradleys, LV-08 vehicles, and the MTVR trucks. The M1A5 Abrams took the lead in escorting the IFVs and trucks. AH-64D and RAH-66 also to off to escort the vehicles and the transport helicopters. Non-line-of-Sight (NLOS) artillery followed behind the rest of the MIDs.
In the air over the Egyptian Beach, the Warthogs lost 10 planes due to enemy AAA fire. But the pilots then changed their mission to make sure all Anti-Aircraft batteries are eliminated and Roman aircraft can maintain air superiority.
So, all the Warthog drivers began engaging the enemy AAA and SAM vehicles using their 30mm gattling guns and bombs.
While at sea, the B-52 celebrated their success in destroying a ship and damaging 4 ships, but it was not enough. Their goal is to decimate the enemy’s entire Navy. 8 B-52 were shot down after they damaged the 4 destroyers. Many of the bombers launched flares to decoy the SAMs, but most of the bombers were damaged by enemy fire. The bombardiers on a few B-52s changed their targets and focused on the aircraft carriers. Since, aircraft carriers pose a serious threat in Rome’s goal of naval superiority.
The Presidential Palace, Rome…
The President received news that the Joint Chiefs of Staff have some news that could give Rome the foothold in Bonstock and the soldiers could begin choking Bonstock into submission. The President decided to meet the Generals in the Conference room rather than his office. After several minutes, the Joint Chiefs arrived in a limousine from the Pentagon. The President’s Special Republican and Gurkha/Gorkha Guardsmen escorted them to the President’s military conference room.
The President was in his office when his secretary notified him that the Joint Chiefs of Staff are in the conference room. The President got up from his desk and walked out of his office and was escorted by his Gurkha/Gorkha Guardsmen. They began walking through the hallway that was filled with painting of Roman Legionaires fighting the enemy long ago. The President arrived at the military conference room; a Gorkha on the left dress in a legionary uniform and holding his Pilum spear guarded the double doors of the room. A Special Republican Guardsman on the right dressed in the same uniform and holding same spear as the Gorkha but was holding it on his left. Also next to each side of the double doors were 2 flags of Rome standing on their flagpoles. The President gave the Guards a salute and both of the Guards opened the doors to let the president in. The Guards who escorted the president walked off to the side and stood next to the Guards protecting the room. The Guards who opened the door closed it.
The conference room had pictures and paintings of the Roman military. The room also contained a small rectangle table and had 10 officers sitting and waiting for the President to get sitted and they can begin their meeting. Their was a LCD TV facing the President’s chair. The TV had the coat of arms of Rome as a screensaver.
A military officer, smoking his pipe, was sitted at the right of the President’s chair got up from his chair to greet the president. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Suresh Thapa (Roman Army) a 58 year old Gorkha because of his resemblance a Mongol, a height of 5 foot 6 inches, and was the most decorated soldier in the Roman Army during his service in the Gorkha Regiments. He wore his Kukri, a sharp curved fighting knife that symbolized the Gorkhas’ warrior tradition, at the right side of his waist. His Kukri has served in every operation Rome has participated it.
“It is good to see you, Mr. President” greeted General Thapa in Hindi as he smiled and shaking the President’s hand.
“It good to see you too, Suresh. You told me you had news about our operation in Bonstock.” Replied the President in Hindi
“Yes, Mr. President. ”
The President and the Chairman both took their sit. The Chairman pulled out a folder from his suitcase and gave it the President. The cover on the folder had the title in Hindi “Operation Bayonet Thrust”. The President open the folder and inside it contained the listing of forces that are currently serving in Bonstock and Forces to be deployed downrange. They began the meeting in Hindi, because it was the official language of Rome and the Joint Chiefs all spoke Hindi, but the Gorkha officers also spoke another language, Gurkhali, their native tongue of their clans in Nepal.

“What is the news happening in Bonstock and what is your plan to take over Bonstock. ” asked the President.
“Our military presence is weakening, most of our forces in the country have surrendered to the enemy. We have received the news from several soldiers in Skogby area who were bombed by napalm. ” Explained the Chairman.
“What! ” The President pounded his fist on the table.
“Yes, Mr. President. It gets worse, some of our forces were missing since the beginning of our operation and we’re are not able to locate them. ” answered Vice-Chairman, Lieutenant General Deep Gandhi (Roman Army) who sat at the left side of the President.
“So what are we going to do now? ”
“This the point of this meeting.” Answered the Chairman “The folder that in front of you has been decided by all Chiefs of Staff of the military including all of us. We have decided to change our tactics because the enemy is adapting and crushing every move we make. The tactic we wish to use is less favorable but very effective to achieve victory. ”
“What is this tactic? ”
“The tactic calls for an airfield and a seaport seizure. The tactic involves us deploying an Airborne and a Marine Unit to capture these key strategic targets. The Airborne Unit will capture the airfield while the Marine Unit captures the beach or seaport. ”
“Sounds like a good tactic” replied the President. “Where are we going to use this tactic? ”
The Chairman got up from his chair and walked over to the huge LCD TV to begin his presentation. The TV was wirelessly connected to the Chairman’s tablet PC. So the Chairman removed the screensaver by activating his Tablet PC.
“Our Intelligence Agencies have photographed this section of Bonstock for our tactic to be used. The General onboard one of the Aircraft Carriers sent a small group of Marines and Amphibious vehicles to destroy the coastal fortress. The bad thing is that our forces were out numbered by firepower. The good thing is that the Marines have taken photos of what the coastal fortress looks like and the units contained. ”
The General opened the images file of the Coastal Fortress. He described that the Coastal Fortress has several machine gun and anti-tank emplacements, Artillery, AAA, and SAM sites, and hundreds of infantry in trenches.
The President began reading the folder’s charts while watching the Chairman’s presentation.

The President had somewhat of a satisfactory grin on his face. He believed that this kind of organization to make a better invasion than the 1st one.
“Yes, are our forces ready to begin deploying? [I]”
“[I]Yes, Sahab (Sir) ” replied the Chairman, “All the forces that are going to fight first are all units based at various overseas bases. The follow-on-forces will take sometime, but the first units will manage to hold the line and somewhat begin choking the enemy of logistical support and command and control, rather than confront any enemy forces. Sahab (Sir), would you like for me to continue? ”
The Chairman made a hand gesture of him choking an imaginary person as he said, “…somewhat choking the enemy…”
“Yes, carry on, Suresh”
Before The Chairman continued his presentation, people from the President’s kitchen arrived with their carts. It was teatime, so all the servers arrived in the room to serve tea to all the Joint Chiefs and the President. After the servers left and all the Joint Chiefs and the President had a sip of tea and eat some biscuits, the Chairman began his presentation. The Chairman used his tablet PC and closed the Coastal Fortress images file and re-opened the Southeast Bonstocknian beach force the second invasion.
“ We have selected 3 targets, Abbeville, Clearwater, and Haram thanks to our intelligence agencies. ” The Chairman used his pen on his tablet PC to circle the three cities and the beachhead and showed up on the TV.
“Our first attack is from the air, our B-2 Bombers are going to fly over Bonstock with F/A-22s as escorts. They will neutralize all the AAA and SAM sites so all our aircraft will fly in. In case the enemy detects our bombers, the aircraft carriers already in Bonstock will launch their aircraft to neutralize the threat. The B-2s may also neutralize other key targets like bridges, roads, communication stations, etc. ”
The Chairman pushed the icon to show a small movie of B-2s and their escorts flying over Bonstock neutralizing AAA & SAM sites and other key targets. He even showed the movie of the contingency plan if the enemy detects the bombers.
“Next, we will paradrop our SF operators outside the airfield and inside the airfield. After they drop, they will recon the area. A few AC-130 Spectres will fly over Bonstock along side with their escort to provide close air support. The SF operators will laser designate the ground targets that will threaten the paratroopers dropping in. The AC-130s will pound the airfields with as much lead a possible to insure that our forces will mop up the rest of the ground forces.”
The Chairman showed the movie of the AC-130s and the SF operators dropping onto the airfield. He also showed a movie of the AC-130s destroying the ground targets.
“Next our paratroopers from the 82nd Airborne, Gorkha Regiments, and Ranger Regiments will paradrop over the airfield and outside the Air Force base. They will mop up the resistance inside and out and declare the airfield secure. If the enemy tries to retake the airfield, out paratroopers will try to hold off the enemy with additional support from the air. If we fail to take the airfield, our helicopters from the 82nd & 90th Airborne and the XVIII Airborne Corps will arrive and evacuate all the paratroopers. ”
The Chairman then showed the movie of the paratroopers dropping onto the airfield, securing it, and holding it off.
“Next, all the naval forces will begin assaulting the beach. First, Destroyers and cruisers will begin bombarding the beach using their naval guns and land attack missiles. Next, aircraft will begin their tactic of air superiority and also bomb the hell out of the beach. Then the Marines and other land forces will begin their assault and drive through the beach to meet the paratroopers. Some of the Marines will take-off in helicopters and begin dropping troops behind the coastal fortress. The Marine Divisions will take over the beach and part of the seaports. The MEUs (SOC) already in Bonstock will assault the seaports and hold it. The paratroopers of the 90th Airborne (Air Assault) will aid the Marines seizing the ports and the beacheads. The Marines and any other leg infantry will secure the beach and the port at all costs. Once the beachhead is secured, our RO/RO boats will unload their cargo. The Armored Divisions and the Armored Cavalry Regiments will begin aiding the leg infantry and hold off an enemy counter-attack and will wait for the rest of the follow-on-forces. ”
“Excellent! ” exclaimed the President. “How long will it take for the follow-on-forces to arrive? ”
“We have not decided what units for the follow-on-forces to be sent to Bonstock. We will send the units that are on active-duty rotation. But the projected time of arrive for the active duty units to arrive in Bonstock is 1 month. We will not sent all these units all at once, that would be crazy. We will send them bit by bit until we are satisfied. If necessary we can send more to Bonstock to achieve victory. ”
“Excellent. Notify all of our forces in the Fatherland and overseas bases to mobilize in 18 hours. ”
“Yes, Mr. President. We will update you one the current situation. ”
“Good. ”
After the presentation the Joint Chiefs of Staff got up from their chairs. The President got up and showed them to the door. All of them had a brief moment of handshakes before the Joint Chiefs left and were escorted by the Special Republican Guardsmen to the limousine.
The President walked out alongside with his Guards to his office to complete some paper work.
Bonstock
30-12-2005, 05:03
Skogby
Flames continued to burn. "Forward!" a lieutenant shouted. Suddenly the Bonstocknian soldiers saw Romans surrendering.
Bonstocknian soldiers raised their guns to shoot the enemy, but NCOs quickly restored the order. "Cease-fire!" was a word heard throughout.
Platoon and company headquarters reported to battalion and brigade headquarters, who reported to divisions and corps and armies that eventually reported to President Lord Harald himself.
Harald had just exitted the situation room, when Colonel Lin Mei came rushing up, her voice trembling. "Harald, thousands of Roman soldiers have just surrendered, and the rest have withdrawn. Their invasion failed. We won."
Lord Harald's blue eyes grew wide like those of a little boy. Overjoyed, he lunged and embraced Mei by her waist, and kissed her as she hugged and kissed him back. "This is wonderful!" Harald exclaimed. Mei smiled back, her dark eyes glistening.
Bonstocknian infantrymen quickly perfomed mop-up operations, declaring the Skogby forests, Flodbro, and the Skogby coasts secure. Roman POWs were rounded up, and force-marched off to POW camps.
Bonstocknian soldiers staged massive parades in the cities. In Port Yuko, fighter and bomber planes made low and slow passes overhead, while tanks rolled and Bonstocknian soldiers marched in strict order. The crowd cheered as a group of haggered and defeated Roman soldiers were led through the streets on their way to the prison camps, with Bonstocknian MPs on either side with machine guns and rifles at ready. After they had passed, the Port Yuko Sanitation Department sent dozens of street cleaners to wash road behind the dirty Roman soldiers.
Television announcements quickly capitalized on the repelled invasion. Today the Bonstocknian armed forces have expelled the Roman forces from our territory. Our brave troops and their fearless leaders have mopped up the last enemy resistance now, sending the Romans packing.
Despite this, the danger still remains. Our troops are still fighting in Roman territory, and it is clear that the Romans intend to attack us again. Thus, in the factories and foxholes, all Bonstocknian citizens have united to help fend off the invaders. Civilian construction battalions are working with Army engineers to build coastal defenses, digging trenches and building concrete barriers and bunkers. Mines are being planted all over the coast, and Bonstocknian Navy ships now patrol the waters. Air defenses, consisting of SAMs supported by AAA sites, are now all over Bonstocknian cities. Millions of volunteers are now flooding the ranks of the Bonstocknian armed forces. Bonstocknia united will prevail over her enemies.
This optimism, however, wasn't reflected outside Bonstock.
Sinai beaches
"Incoming!" a segeant yelled.
"God damn!" yelled Lieutenant Willy Peterson as he hit the deck. Clutching his M-4 carbine, he yelled to his platoon. "Get down!"
He looked up, and heard the screams of Roman A-10s flying in overhead. Suddenly, a giant explosion ripped the air. Willy looked over. His IFV had just been blown to bits.
"Fuck!" he yelled. "Fall back!"
He and a few soldiers took refuge behind the newly blown-up IFV. One of the soldiers had a Javelin anti-tank missile launcher.
"Don't just stand there with that thing, Mike!" Willy yelled. "Use that god damn sucker!" Willy looked around, seeing dozens of Roman tanks headed his way.
Mike took his Javelin missile, and turned around. Machine gun bullets began whizzing by, kicking up the desert sand. Mike focused into the sights. "Got it!" he yelled, and then pulled the trigger. The missile went flying, hitting the Roman tank through the front. The turrent blew clean off.
Willy breathed a sigh of relief. But the Roman tanks were still coming. "Fall back!" Willy yelled. His soldiers fled backwards until they finally got into a trench just around the airfield that some engineers had just dug.
Willy turned to a guy with a radio. "Gimme that, Johnny!" he yelled. "This is Foxtrot Alpha Niner," he yelled in the radio. "Requesting artillery support right in front of our position. And dammit, send in mines! Lots of mines!"
"Roger, artillery support is on the way."
About fifty Bonstocknian artillery pieces opened up on the areas in front of the Bonstocknian front. They fired mostly rounds full of anti-tank mines, mines which would, at the very least, pop the tracks off of tanks and IFVs. The immobilized tanks would then be easy targets for Bonstocknian anti-tank missiles, as well as the surviving Bonstocknian tanks and A-10s. Bonstocknian machine gunners and high-explosive artillery shells would prevent enemy infantry and engineers from being able to stop the mines.
The situation was going pretty badly for the Bonstocknians. Nearly a third of their armor had been destroyed, including a good number of the anti-aircraft vehicles, and most of the aircraft were grounded or fleeing to carriers. C-17s only dared fly in at night to take out the wounded and bring in meager amounts of supplies. Many Bonstocknian soldiers lay dead in the desert sands. Despite the best efforts of CIWS gunners and SM-2 missiles, four Bonstocknian carriers were hit by enemy missiles. Damage control crews reacted swiftly in all cases, but one of the ships was damaged to the point where it was incapacitated. It would have to be towed back to Bonstock. Still, the Bonstocknian resupply convoy was already coming, already in the Indian Ocean. A few more days and they would be there, with relief forces and supplies. If only the Bonstocknian Marines could just hang on a few more days...

Roman Republic…
East Egyptian Beach, Near the Suez Canal…
The Armored Cavalry Regiments kept pushing on. Scouts continued to use their laser designators for Roman artillery to destroy. A 4-tank platoon kept pushing on and firing round after round and trying to destroy enemy tanks and infantry. As the tanks were pushing on, they struck several anti-tank mines and their tracks were destroyed. The tank platoon leader tried to get onto the radio to tell the others to be aware of the mines, but his tank and the rest of the 3 Abrams were destroyed by enemy RPGs
The tank company leader of 2 Squadron, 40th Armored Cavalry Regiment looked through his Independent Thermal Imager and began scanning the battlefield while the rest of his company began firing round after round at the enemy. He saw several mines placed in the sand, but had no idea were they came from. He radioed the rest of his company to stay away from the mine, and let the engineer units clear the mines.
The Engineer Company of the 70th Armored Cavalry Regiment moved in front of the Abrams and Bradleys to clear the mines. The tanks and CFVs provided suppressive fire, so any enemy anti-tanks teams will not take any cheap shots at the engineer vehicles. 5 Mongoose mine-clearing vehicles launched rockets to detonate the mines, but enemy artillery shells destroyed them. 3 M9 Armored Earth Movers moved infront and began using their dozer blade to clear a path, but they were also destroyed by enemy artillery.
“Damn it!” Yelled the Tank Company leader, “Who is destroying our vehicles?”
He picked up his radio and radioed the Apaches and Comanches to eliminate the units destroying the engineer vehicles. The attack helicopters began scouting the battlefield, the gunners spotted enemy artillery and traced their shells hitting the armored cavalry. The gunners radioed to regimental headquarters that it was artillery destroying the engineer units and also placing mines. The Regiment commander ordered those guns to be destroyed, so the whole Armored Cavalry can eliminate the enemy force out of the Fatherland. The Apache and Comanche gunners fired hellfire missiles and their 25mm and 30mm cannons.
The Blackhawks and Chinooks of the Mechanized Infantry Divisions began landing legionaries on the ground. The helos were kinking up a lot of sand as they where dropping their passengers. A platoon of legionaries created a perimeter incase the enemy might try to attack the helicopters.
“Good luck!” yelled a Blackhawk crew chief officer while legionaries were getting out of the helo. The crew chief also gave a thumps up.
Once the helos left, the legionaries activated their adaptive camouflage to blend into the sandy desert. They then to position behind the tanks of the Armored Cavalry and began engaging the enemy.
15 minutes after the helicopters dropped the legionaries the ground force of the Mechanized Divisions arrived to aid the Armored Cavalry and the legionaries. The Mechanized Infantrys’ Divisional Artillery broke up into batteries of 18 Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) Cannons and 18 M270A1 MLRS. They formed their own artillery sites, so if the enemy managed to some artillery batteries, the rest of the artillery force will not be crippled.
The Longbow Apaches and Comanches that belonged to the 3 MIDs flew over the beach after they escorted the transport helicopters and the ground force. They received their orders and began to engage enemy tanks and foot soldiers hiding in their trenches. They were even told to decimate the enemy’s airfield, seaport, and any other facilities.
The Warthogs and B-52 pilots ran out of ammunition, because if they kept on flying around the battlefield, they would be easy targets for AAA and SAM. Since the enemy Air Defense vehicles have been somewhat crippled, they would have no problem leaving for home. The pilots then turned around for home. A-10 Warthogs, F/A-22 Raptors, F-35A JSFs, FB-22A Raptors, & F-45C J-CAVs from the Egyptian Air National Guards were activated and prepared to take off and ready to send the enemy back home in coffins
Bonstock
14-01-2006, 16:40
Roman choppers were flying overhead, targetting Bonstocknian forces. "Dammit," cried Lieutenant Peterson as he ducked into a trench, "Get some Stingers on them!"
Two men came up, one of them holding a MANPADs Stinger missile launcher. "You need us, sir?" one of them asked.
"Yes!" Peterson responded, as a Roman artillery shell crashed nearby, "Fire at those inbound choppers!"
"Yes, sir!" The men took their missile launcher, hopped out of the trench, and shot at the Roman Apaches.
"Get some .50 caliber on them!" Peterson yelled to his platoon's machine gunners. The machine gunners began firing into the air at the Roman choppers.
Peterson looked around. Other Bonstocknian units were following suit, greeting the Roman choppers with a hail of Stinger missiles and .50 caliber machine guns. Artillery guns, with .50 caliber and Stinger protection, continued to fire at Roman engineers and tanks, though 10 guns were knocked out. There were 40 Bonstocknian casualties in the chopper attack.
Out at sea, a few dozen F-35 fighters took off from carriers, and began targetting the Roman choppers. Some swooped in low to shoot their 25mm chain guns at disabled Roman tanks in the Bonstocknian minefield. Peterson looked up, with his men happy that there were Bonstocknian planes in the air.
Bonstocknian carriers and transports were safely out at sea, surrounded by an escort force of submarines and destroyers that went out a hundred miles. Helicopters and LCACs resupplied the Bonstocknians. Night had started to fall, and the Bonstocknian sailors could see the resupply convoy heading for the beaches. They would be there by midnight.
Meanwhile, on any Bonstocknian shores suitable for landing, Bonstocknian civilians were laying barbed wire, mines, and anti-tank obstacles, and constructing concrete bunkers. Most of the bunkers were filed with .50 caliber machine guns, but others were filled with 40mm grenade launchers and TOW missiles. Soldiers, some of them with Stinger missile launchers, patrolled around and manned the finished bunkers. Some took up positions in seaside resorts. Meanwhile, all airfields and cities were surrounded with Patriot missile launchers, and F-22s and E-3 AWACS aircraft patrolled around, looking for any lurking Roman.

It was 2200 hours, all the personnel on the military bases were asleep. The Commanders of the military base were telephoned from the Pentagon. The Joint Chiefs told them about Operation Bayonet Thrust and all the information will be transmitted to the briefing rooms and into the soldiers and marines uniforms. Once all the commanders woke up and got dress, they walked over to the briefing room and began reading and discussing the mission before waking up the troops. After talking and reviewing the intel for 5 hours, they alerted all the ground personnel to start preparing and load up all the equipment before the actual troops wake up. The crewmen began loading the fixed-wing aircraft and helicopters of the Army, Marine Corps and the Navy aboard the aircraft carriers and the amphibious assault ships. Trucks with fuel parked beside the harbor and aircraft, the crewmen began fueling the ships and aircraft except for the aircraft carriers, DD-21 destroyers, submarines, and arsenal ships. Food and logistic supplies were loaded into the ships, so the amphibious and airborne task force can sustain itself until more forces arrive with more supplies and troops. Tanks, Artillery, and Vehicles of the Army and Marine Corps were loaded into the RO/RO ships and Amphibious Assault ships. LV-08s & Advanced Light Strike Vehicles for the paratroopers were loaded into the C-17s. The LV-08 vehicles armed with GAU-12/A 12.7mm gattling guns, Mk. 47 40mm automatic grenade launchers, TOW missile launchers, Javelin missile launchers, and M307 25mm machine guns and were also fitted with extra armor. Trucks and vehicles belonging to the amphibious force were equipped with the same weapons as the vehicles for the paratroopers and were also fitted with extra armor. The M1A5 Abrams, M2/3 Bradleys, LAVs, and Expeditionary Fighting Vehicles were fitted with a bulldozer plow, so they could clear obstacles and the infantry can secure the beach, and extra armor. Each fire team of the Amphibious and Airborne Task force is attached with a MULE Unmanned Ground Combat Vehicle (UGCV) and a MMP-1 Man-portable unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Each MULE UGCV is armed with a 12.7mm Machine Gun, Lightweight LOSAT missiles, obstacle breaching explosive charges and ammunition boxes (batteries, ammo, etc.) for the infantry. The B-2 Bombers were loaded with JDAM and JSOW. The JDAMs were to be used for destroying “hard” targets (Buildings, bridges, etc.) and JSOW were to be used for “soft” targets (Radar sites, SAM & AAA sites, etc.). Key targets for the B-2s to bomb, were downlinked into the bombers’ targeting computer. The AC-130U Spectre Gunships were also fed the same targeting information, but they would need more information when the Special Forces Operators begin using their laser designators. F/A-22 Raptors, F/A-18E/F Super Hornets, F-14E Super Tomcats, & F-35 JSFs were loaded with Phoenix, Sparrow AMRAAM, and Sidewinder missiles. A-10C Warthogs were loaded with JDAM and Cluster bombs, 30mm DU rounds, and Sidewinder missiles. After taking 7 hours to load the equipment with caution, they told the military base commanders that everything is loaded and strapped and now it is time to wake the troops.
It was 1000 hours, when the sirens and alarms blared into the morning sky, waking all the troops in their barracks. After several minutes of preparing and suiting up, they walked out of their barracks into the bright morning sky. Soldiers and Marines were armed with M-29 OICWs, M-8 rifles, M16A4 rifles, Mk. 48 Mod 0 machine guns, M320 grenade launchers, Shotgun attachments, and sniper rifles. The soldiers’ weapons were modified to so they can use the features of the SOPMOD Block III (lasers, flashlights, scopes, forward grips, sights, flashlights, silencers, combat slings, etc.). Heavy Weapons included: Predator & Javelin ATGMs, Stinger MANPADS, Mk. 47 40mm automatic grenade launchers, M240G machine guns, SMAWs, M307 25mm machine guns, M224 60mm, M252 81mm & 120mm mortars. They were loaded with more ammunition (RPGs, ATGMs, mortars, mines, bullets, batteries, SAMs, Grenades, flares, breaching equipment, etc.) than they regularly carried. If their equipment failed when under fire, they were equipped with lightweight back-up equipment (radios, thermal/night vision goggles, GPS receivers, strobe lights, laser designators, etc.)
Paratroopers composed of the Ranger Battalions, Regiments of the 82nd Airborne, Army & Air Force SF operators, some Gorkha battalions, & a regiment from the 90th Airborne (Air Assault) walked over to a few hangers where sits and tables were place for them to wait. Marines, Legionaries, aviators, sailors, rest of the paratroopers of the 90th Airborne (Air Assault), rest of the Rangers of the 3 Ranger Regiments, and the rest of the Gorkhas that make up the Amphibious Task Force followed behind to Airborne Task Force into the hangers. The hangers even contained vending machines, machines for hot drinks, and microwaves. There were nearby bathrooms for them. Some of the men began smoking their cigarettes, cigars, and pipes while talking to the rest of their comrades. Since all the men haven’t ate, the cooks in the kitchen in the mess halls, brought their lunches for all the soldiers to eat. One by one, all the soldiers formed a single file line to receive their food and then found a seat and began eating. Their objectives were downloaded wirelessly into all the soldiers’ uniforms. If any changes were needed, more information will be updated into their uniforms during their trip to Bonstock. The commanders of the military bases arrived from the briefing rooms to brief everyone about the mission and a speech to motivate the soldiers. After the Information was downloaded, all the men began to review all the intel and continued to eat their lunch while the commanders were explaining about the intel that was projected on a projector screen. This way, the commanders can explain the mission carefully with maps, rather than explaining through memory and description of each location.
After the 18-hour notification and preparation, all the soldiers in the military bases began to load up in their transports and embarking into the amphibious ships. Once every amphibious task force soldier was inside the ships, they began to leave with their Carrier Groups as escorts. Behind them, logistics and hospital ships followed.
The SF soldiers and pilots and crew of the MC-130s, F/A-22s, B-2s, AC-130s, A-10s, EA-18s, some F-14s and F/A-18s, KC-10s, and EC-130s walked up to their aircraft and took their seats. The ground crewmen removed the blocks that were located in front of the wheels, so it prevents the aircraft from moving. They pilots increased the aircraft’s engine power to taxi mode and ground crewmen guided the aircraft, using hand signals to the runway. They all took off after receiving confirmation from tower control.
The paratroopers were the last to leave, they waited a few hours, this way they will let the aircraft before them decimate the enemy force before they can drop in and mop up the enemy force. After their hours of patience, the paratroopers walked over to the transports with their cigars, cigarettes, and pipes in their mouths. They had their equipment strapped on the front and the back of their body. They were still wearing their helmets as they were entering the plane. The helmet looked more like a motorcyclist’s helmet but contained sensors. The facemask dangled to the right side of the troops’ helmet so it will allow them to continue to smoke, drink, and finish eating their lunch. They were still talking to their comrades as they took their seats. The escorts composed of F/A-22s, F-35s, EC-130s, and EA-18s took off. The C-17s and KC-10s were next and after they taxied to the runway, they took off. A few Marine and Navy aircraft squadrons (F-35s, F-14s, and F/A-18s) also took off to escort the transports, bombers, refuelers and also to add more combat power to the fighters of the Roman Air Force.

Operation Bayonet Thrust
Overview: After failed attempts to set up a military base in Skogby and Flodbro and decimate the enemy force. The Joint Chiefs of Staff have agreed to attempt another assault on Bonstock. The tactic requires an airfield, seaport and beach seizure. If successful, more Roman forces will have a base to live and draw supplies from.
Main Objective: To assault a section of Bonstock and set a foothold for follow-on-forces to land and begin assaulting the rest of Bonstock. Do not let the enemy escape even if they are injured, leave no one alive! If the enemy surrenders, round them up so they can be interrogated. Contingency plans will take place if the mission doesn’t go according to plan, but will help make the Operation Bayonet Thrust a success.
Objectives:
-B-2 bombers and escorts will fly over Bonstock
--They will bomb strategic targets that will slow the enemy’s advance to intercept Roman Forces.
---Targets: Bridges, Communication towers, Radar stations, Roads, Air Defense Sites.
-Special Forces will drop by parachute over the airfields.
--They will scout the airfield
--If enemy is present, they will laser designate the targets for AC-130s and A-10s
--AC-130s and A-10s will receive coordinates and begin decimating the enemy force
-The Airborne Task Force will fly over the airfields
--Paratroopers will begin dropping one by one over the airfields
--Mop up the remaining enemy force, if they survived
--Secure the airfield
--After the complete their objectives, the paratroops will begin setting up blocking positions if the enemy sends forces to retake the airfield
-Amphibious Task Force
--Ships will set up an air defense shield
--Special Forces will infiltrate the beach
---Recon the beach
---Clear some obstacles
---Laser designate targets that might threaten the amphibious force
----Ships will decimate the targets at the start of the invasion
---After they complete their objectives, they will leave
--Destroyers and Cruisers will begin bombarding the beachheads with naval gunfire and land attack missiles
--Aircraft will launch from Carriers and Amphibious Assault Carriers
---Objectives
----Air Superiority
----Close air support
----Act as forward air controllers for: helicopters, artillery, naval gunfire, etc.
----Act as command and control units
--The Ground Force will prepare for the assault
---Transportation: landing craft, amphibious assault vehicles, and helicopters
--Soldiers in landing craft and amphibious vehicles
---The will land on the beach
---Begin assaulting the beach and attempt to secure the beach
--Soldiers in helicopters
---Land behind enemy lines
---Set up blocking positions
--After beachheads are secured
---The Amphibious Task Force will drive up from the beachheads to the airfields

Airfields to be seized:
-Abbyville Air Force Base and International Airport
-Clearwater Air Force Base
-Haram Air Force Base
Seaports to be seized:
-Abbyville
-Clearwater
-Haram
-Springfield City
The Beachheads:
-Beachhead 1: Abbyville; codename: Eagle
-Beachhead 2: Clearwater; codename: Dog
-Beachhead 3: Haram; codename: Wolf
Each beachhead will be broken down into small sections for units to assault and secure. (Ex. Wolf 1 or Dog 4) The beachheads are being protected by bunkers, artillery, air defense sites, trenches filled with soldiers and vehicles, machine gun mounts, minefields, and obstacles that might slow down infantry and vehicles. There maybe naval mines floating at sea. Soldiers are patrolling the beaches. More air defense sites are protecting the countryside behind the coastal fortresses. There are thermal traces and photographic images of soldiers and vehicles protecting the airfields. There are traces of jet fighters conducting combat air patrols around the beachheads. There are at least 1 enemy military base on each beachhead. They may prove to be difficult if strategic targets are not destroyed. Photographic and thermal images of the enemy military bases have estimated to have at least 1 to 3 divisions per base. Unsure if the divisions are Light Infantry, Armored, Mechanized Infantry, Airborne, Marines, or any other land force that has armored vehicles included or just basic infantry.

Roman Military Base, Rome
A ring of three BSS intelligence agents were posing as foreign businessmen. Living near the main Roman base, they observed how many Roman truck, air, and ship convoys entered and exitted the local Roman base, and tried to figure out troop compositions. They owned a small tavern right near the base. While the other three were managing the restaurant, there was always one observing the base. Information was soon reported back to BSS Headquarters using a low frequency transmission that sent a signal to the Bonstocknian embassy in the Tokera. Bonstocknian agents there would forward it, all heavily encrypted, to BSS Headquarters where the National Command Authorities could make sense of it. The same was happening with Roman bases in Space Union, the Tokera, and Borman Empire, although since those were neutral countries Bonstocknian agents were relatively safe. In Rome, any leak in security could mean certain death for the Bonstocknian agents.
In the past few days, the Bonstocknians noticed that Rome was building up transport aircraft and carriers in the harbor. It was a tell-tale sign of an impending attack. William Miller, head of the ring, got the others agents together.
William was in his mid-thirties, but looked older. He was an experienced BSS agent, but seemed almost weary of his life. "All right, guys," he said two his two compatriots, "We have orders from the top requesting more information. We need everything we can get on this. We need to figure out whether or not this is an attack. If we can get this information, then perhaps Bonstock stands a chance of deflecting this invasion."
The other two were much younger, both fresh from the BSS academy. How they got in on such a vital yet dangerous operation was anyone's guess, but it was figured William would get them through.
There was Josh Garcia, still filled with the patriotism that drove him into this occupation, and his mind firing as fast as it could. "We gotta find a way to penetrate their command structure. Perhaps bribing some of their government and military officials. I'm sure a few of them frequent our bar. We'll have to get someone who looks like an innocent local to have a friendly conversation with one of their officers, and politely ask what the hell is going on."
"What if the person got caught?" William retorted. "Who here is willing to risk it?"
"I am," the third one said. She was a young woman, named Shilpa Kundar. She was twenty-five, but with her fair features, slim figure, and dark black hair, she could pass easily for a high schooler. Her figure looked young, innocent, and harmless, with all the flair of her Indian heritage.
William tried to counter her. "If you are caught, there's no telling what could happen to you."
"I am aware of that," she said. "That's why I took this job."
"All right," William said.
"Good luck," Josh said.
----------
That night, probably the night before the Roman operation unfolded, a lone buth high ranking looking Roman officer sat down at the bar. Josh served him some beer. Shilpa went up, and sat next to the Roman. "Hey," she said. "What's your name?"
