The Novaya-Russian government began mass persecutions of millions of people who follow religions, and believe in god. Under a new law, belief in god, and/or worshipping god is treason, and is punishable by death. In a statement from the Czar himself, "I give the people enough civil freedoms to drown in, and this is how they repay me?" Novaya-Russia has gone so far as to declare war on religion, and is calling all countries to its aid to lead a massive crusade against this ridiculous concept that is corrupting the world. Novaya-Russia has an impressive military size and in a statement from the Grand Admiral Mikhail Polkovski, "The Royal Navy will stop our enemy's in their tracks, should they decide to attack us, and even if the get past us, they will have the over 2 million soldiers, 10,000 tanks, 20,000 pieces of artillery, and an airpower of 1,000 which we will be expanding, due to the threat of war, to contend with. Again, we call forward all sane and rational countries on a crusade to eliminate religion, and bring truth to the eyes of the "worshippers."

From the Desk of the Minister of Foreign Affairs

Originally this letter was to be written in congradulations towards your nation for doing away with such arcane practices, however now I am afraid that it will carry a much different tone.

The fact that you outright ban religion is ridiculous, the people will not stand idly by and support your government in these matters. Your rule by fear will only bring about your own demise. The process must be slow, deliberate, and gentle. And why of all things would you kill your citizens? It would be much better for you to re-educate them and make them useful, productive members of society, rather than corpses you will just have to bury.

It surely will be a difficult road ahead for you and your people.

Minister of Foreign Affairs
Gerhard Norris

I too, am puzzled, as to why a man holding a title Tzar (which has signinfigant Christian connections) would subject his own people to persecution of religion. You are tempting fate.

statement from the czar "My fellow leaders, religion corrupts a persons mind, giving him/her false faith, which in the end will gain nothing. The persecution are a show of force, and will be stopped for a time to allow the people to adjust. Now my brothers, will you join me in my campaign, or will you back away? The choice is yours, the choice that can change the fate of hundreds of nations..."

Congratulations. For embracing the destructive and ultimately self-destructive ideology of atheism, we declare you a target of Holy Jihad. If you wish to kill a God-worshipper, try and get through us.

Malkyer will accept any refugees fleeing this nekulturny regime in Novaya-Russia. This Tsar has no right to institute the practices he has begun, and fate will not be kind to him. It matters not what you think, Tsar, nor does it matter what we say. History will judge you, and it will judge you the same way it has always judged the Godless. Prepare to take your place upon the ash heap of history.

I conclude by reiterating the statement that any persons fleeing this oppressive and illegitimate regime may come to Malkyer if they so wish it.

Prime Minister
Kingdom of Malkyer

"My people will not flee from me... They will heed my wisdom, and ackowledge it... The persecution were a show of force, and while they have been temporarily called off to allow the people time to adjust, within a year they will be reinstated to make sure that nobody will be worshipping god. It is treason, and will be punished as such."

"Please, educate me. How does belief in God constitute treason? Are you sure you aren't subconciously insecure in your peoples' loyalty?"

PM Harrison

Good Tsar,
Such an issue, especially one of a seemingly brother Slavic nation, has troubled us which forces us to write personaly while boycotting slower diplomatic channels. Our Empire is very displeased of the current and proposed actions and demands that action cease and perhaps alternatives may be found?
Yet, in the mean time The Holy Empire of Rumera shall adopt such a similar stance as the Kingdom Of Malkyer accepting refugees from your nation. We will not, but are prepared in an unchanged stand of policy to encourage such people to freedom. We hope you see the wisdom in these matters.

His Imperial Majesty Dansha Vankov

I usually do am not so sudden, but I realize that fools like you cannot be reasoned with. Belief in God is the only thing that can guide us through life! Denying it to peoples is denying them hope! You have 24 hours to cease and allow freedom of worship. Be forewarned, as our forces hunger for battle.

Malkyer will accept any refugees fleeing this fascist regime in Novaya-Russia. This Tsar has no right to institute the practices he has begun, and fate will not be kind to him.

Emergency Politburo Meeting, 0230 Russkyan Standard Time, Berisat, Central Province.

"He said what?!"
"General Secretary, he said, and I quote:
'"My fellow leaders, religion corrupts a persons mind, giving him/her false faith, which in the end will gain nothing. The persecution are a show of force, and will be stopped for a time to allow the people to adjust. Now my brothers, will you join me in my campaign, or will you back away? The choice is yours, the choice that can change the fate of hundreds of nations..."

The General Secretary almost looked as if he were considering helping New Russia (Novaya Russia) in their Aetheist campaign. Defense Minister Mikhail Sergetov, alarmed, leaned across the carefully polished oaken table, now strewn with briefing and readiness reports.
"Comrade General Secretary! We cannot support them militarily nor would I, or any of my collegues recommend this... insane course of action."
"No, you are right. Tell Pradivoe to spread the word amongst the citizentry, that we shall accept refugees from Novaya Russia."

Pradivoe Broadcasting Station #23

"And as such the People's Socialist Republic of Russkya will be agreeing wholeheartedly with Prime Minister Zarchary Harrison, of the Kingdom of Malkyer in their stance on taking refugees fleeing from the nation of Novaya Russia. Comrades, we ask you to open your arms and give generously to the support units now deployed in all major population centres, so that we may establish properly equipped refugee camps with a minimum of time expended."

--

Russkya wishes to congratulate the Kingdom of Malkyer on being the first to publicly state that refugees will be accepted from Novaya Russia. Should it be required, the 24th Rapid Reaction Brigade is standing by to support the military forces of Malkyer and any other Jihadii who rally to the cause.

I notice you took on the name of Novaya Russia, is your leader by any chance Grigor Styanovich or is it his metallic successor? Anyways I will not stand and witness Genocide at your hands, We hope your cybers are prepared to die.

Holy Emperor Armand Domalewski "HA! Fools, you think you can stand up to the might of the Royal Military? You will be deeply mistaken.

And to whomever may be wondering, worshipping "god" is treason, because the Czar rules it as such. He sees his people gambling, killing, raping, and then asking for forgiveness from god... But god does not help them, or guide them or aid them... God does not provide them with a good economy, nor does he help save our forests... God is an illusion conjured up by man, to explain things that man cannot comprehend or percieve at this time. If the Czar does not act quickly his country will be corrupted. He has acted justly, and will continue to act so.

Also, to the leader of Italia di Fascista , and let all other countries be sure of this as well, any and all countries supllying our enemies with any type of aid, will be considered as hostile nations.

To the leader of Gyrobot, we believe that you have our nation confused with a different nation. Will you retract your statement?"

How utterly, disgustingly pathetic.

Another unnoticeable nation that declares it's stance involving the persecution of religion - the justification for many empires in the world, and tries to kill it's worshippers.

Do you really want to see your people raped, beaten, massacred and shot? You are going the right way about it. Xenonier will take no action thus far, but it shames to even think our people's slavic origins trace back along similar lines to yours.

And should you wish to invite war with me, or declare me an enemy - so be it. We will not strike first, but you should attack us, You will find your atmoshpere shredded away by our Spacefleets, your so called "invicible military" left leaderless by precise military strikes, and in single combat, I shall kill you myself.

Stand down, and try for peace. You will survive longer that way.

Arkady Gregorovich, President Speaker of Xenonier.

"Xenonier, your words are harsh, and I sense that your heart is cold... Are you so willing to allow your people to trick themselves, should you not, as their leader do what is best for them? Your threats are petty. We will decalre you a neutral nation as of now, and as long as you do not start war with us... we will have no reason to start war with you, as of now... If our paths are destined to cross, they will... We shall have to be patient and see..."

OCC: If and when there is a war, it will be a modern war, no space fleets and such...

"This morning, our President issued a statement on the massacre of religious people in Novaya Russia . While he would not declare war on them, he strongly condemned their stance and offered to take any refugees. He also said that Taldaan is now placing sanctions on Novaya Russia."

Imperial House, Rumera, 1:27 RST

Reporter Stepan Kolsky steps in front of the camera,

"As all of you know, a new confrentation between major powers of the world has erupted as the atheistic regime Novaya Russia has declared a massive pogrom of religious believers. We are waiting for the Rumeran emperor to come and deliver a message of the latest . . . and he he comes."

The Emperor comes onto the balcony, takes a breath and begins to speak, "Our fellow subjects, A great tragedy is beging to reveal itself. The czar of Novaya-Russia has declared that it will begin massive persecutions of those who place their lives in the hands of God. As an empire that places trust in God, we could not morally sit and allow this cleansing to occur. Thus, I demand for the Czar of Novaya-Russia to cease immedietly. We will aid all and every refugee that comes to our country. To All Rumerans, after close conversations with the Council of Ministers we have decieded to activate Imperial Alert One. All units called will be expected to report at their base in one week. To all other nations, I ask you to join Rumera in taking a stand against this godless tyranny. Together, we cannot be ignored.
May God have mercy on the czar if he spills one drop of Christian blood."


occ: An Imperial Alert 1, is just a 10% call up of the active reserves.

From the Desk of the Prime Minister:

The government of the Dubocratic Union is a small, humble, and freedom loving nation. We have just come into power via coup d'tat, and would like to offer the services of our most worthy island nation in the aid of refugees from any nation that suffers from persecution.

We hereby decree ourselves a home to refugees from the terror of Novaya-Russia.

To Novaya-Russia: This is a warning. Heed it well. We ally ourselves only with our meritorious friends, and we have many. Any further actions of agression against people who wish to simply live peaceably under a free government will not be tollerated. You have been warned.

To all nations opposed to the treachery of Novaya-Russia:

I suggest a formal coalition with the leader being the most populous among us. I don't qualify, but surely one of the nations is powerful enough to lead.

To: Novaya Russia

Due to your blatent persecution of God's own children, the Emperor has authorised the Guild Military to launch pre-emptive strikes upon your nation until such a time as end the persecution of God's own lambs.

If you do not end this persecution within 24 hours, you shall be considered to be at war with the Guilds.

We further call upon all true Christians to blockade and take limited actions against Novaya Russia for their actions against their brothers and sisters in Christ.

If you do not backdown you will suffer the wrath of God's Temporal Armies,

For God and St. Peter,

OOC: Deadline ends tomorrow.

From the Desk of the Prime Minister:

Let it be expressed as the sentiment of this nation and of all peace-loving, freedom-loving nations that condemning Novaya-Russia in the name of Christianity is equally as dispicable as the despotic nature of Novaya-Russia's actions.

Let it be declared that the Dubocratic Union accepts all refugees from all crusading countries who are run by madmen.

Let this be a warning. The Dubocratic Union will not stand for the evils of a contemptuous and expansionist Christian church.

As such, we humbly ask that all countries declaring hostility against Novaya-Russia reconsider the reasons for such hostility.

The Prime Minister of the Dubocratic Union,
Theodore Jefferson

To: Theodore Jefferson

We bring God's light, which eminates from his most Holy Church to the involved nations, whom would persecute the true observants of his Holy Scriptures, meant to help us avoid Satan's clutches.

We suggust you take back your remarks or we shall take it as an insult to God's Holy Church, thus we will move to inflict damage upon your nation until such time as you apologise and pay compensation to the Church for your insults.

For God and St. Peter,

Criticus Zabic,
Foreign Affairs Advisor to the Emperor,

Prime Minister Jefferson,
I have received your latest dispatch and I am somewhat bothered by its message. Be rest assured that Rumera will accept refugees and has imposed sanctions. However, also note that we are calling up the first reserves and preparing for the possibilty of armed action against Novaya-Russia. We would be speaking false if I spoke that are actions were not related to religion. Our nation too was once rulled by a godless authority. As such, we can not stand by and let other nations perform similar deeds that happened long ago on our soil. If and after victory is run do we hope to postelyze and spread the influence of our Orthodox Churches. No. Yet, we can not stand by and see others which live in the name of God be slaughtered. It would be against the very meaning of the Holy Empire. Thus, we will fight for their protection. Please be advised.

You try our patience, Tsar. Your nation has a population of 328 million. Malkyer alone is more than twice your size, and then there are the truly huge nations, such as the Merchant Guilds. It is you who should fear us, not the other way around.

You argue that God does not exist. It is not my place to debate His existence. However, it is my place to inform you that persecuting the belief in God is a direct violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The Kingdom will not stand by while this oppression continues unchecked. You have twenty-four hours before we begin more drastic measures.

David Hanson,
Foreign Minister

OOC: My deadline will end a couple of hours after the Merchant Guilds', let's say.

Dictator Anderson sat in his office as an aide came through the door.

"Sir, we have a situation flaring up involving Novaya Russia."
"What is it?"
"In short, they have begun punishing people for religion."
"That's sad, definitely not something I want to see."
"That's not all, sir."
"What else?"
"Other nations are threatening war."
"Oh. Patch all the data to my computer, then."
"Alright, sir."

The aide left the room, and Dictator Anderson began to review the incoming data. It surprised him how the other nationsn were acting. Oh well,[i] he thought. [i]Gurian is strong enough to do something, I suppose.

OOC: If you check Gurian's statistics, we are a 4.217 billion person nation with a Frightening economy. Don't assume Gurian is just a weak 6 million person nation.

Dictator Anderson decided to send an open message from Gurian to those involved in the situation. War was the last thing he wanted to see. He began writing.

Novaya Russia has recently begun to take hostile action toward those who believe in God. I, among others, feel this act is deplorable. People should be able to believe in whatever they wish. I would advise Novaya Russia to at the very least curb the punishment down from death to deportation. If you do not want people of faith, do not kill them. There are many nations willing to accept refugees, nations which I will commend.

Many of the same nations, though, are beginning to become more aggressive. I would like to stress that I oppose this as well. While it is horrendous what Novaya Russia is doing, a war will not help anything. Deporting and/or killing people of faith won't be fixed by bombing said people. A war will have many casualties, far too many to be justified in the name of human rights. Such a conflict should be avoided.

To give each side additional incentive not to attack the other, I shall at the moment pledge to defend the side which is attacked first. Only after diplomatic methods are exhausted will I condone an assault on Novaya Russia. War should be a last resort, yet too many are eager to begin it.

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

To: The Kingdom of Malkyer, The Influence of the Merchant Guilds, The People's Socialist Republic of Russkya

Our nation cordially asks of you to entertain the idea of maintaining a brief united military coalition during the duration of this crisis. Together, the saftey of Novaya-Russia's citizens can be ensured. In the mean time, we invite any ambassadors and representives of state to be welcomed at the Imeprial palace.

Lord Khustanov,
Rumeran Minister of Foreign Affairs

Khustanov walks quickly into the Emperor's office.
"Your Imperial Majesty, we have some new news."
"Be quick, I haven't had my lunch." THe emperor responds not looking up from his desk.
"Sir," he stammered, "If we launch attacks at Novaya-Russia we will be declared war on by Gurian . . . Sir, the have 7 times the people we do, a much larger miltary and a miltary budget larger than our GDP."
"Crap!" The emperor Stood up and walks down the hallway telling Khustanov, "Contanct the Dictator and see if we can come to an understanding."


To Gurian

The Emperor has received your warning and has been advised. We are willing to enter negotiations with the Dictator ship and reach an agreement on perhaps a "better" response toward Novaya-Russia. We wait for your reply.

Lord Khustanov
Minister of foreign Affairs

Dictator Anderson smiled at the message. Maybe there was a chance for a peaceful resolution after all. He wrote back.

Lord Khustanov,

I wish for a peaceful solution and I do not want to jump into a war quickly. I would like to organize a conference of all world leaders involved in this issue so that we may attempt to come to a peaceful resolution. If you wish, you could come to Gurian and use here as a neutral meeting location.

Only once diplomatic methods are exhausted will I condone the use of force. War brings death and suffering, and should be avoided when possible.

Please reply and inform me if you are willing to come to a conference. Until such negotiations occur, though, I cannot allow such bloodshed to occur in the name of human rights.

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

To Lord Khustanov:
I fear we are not able to entertain such an idea at the time. We must take this proposition by Gurian very seriously. Malkyer right now is at war with the Dracun Imperium, and though the conflict is not yet on a massive scale, we do not have the resources to fight both Gurian and Dracun at the same time. Thus, I must respectfully decline your offer.

Best regards,
David Hanson,
Foreign Minister

To Novaya-Russia:
In light of the stance taken by Gurian, the Kingdom has lifted its deadline. Do not make the mistake of believing that you have won, however. We will continue to do everything in our power to bring the light of freedom to the people of your country. we will not forget them. Patience is our weapon.

David Hanson,
Foreign Minister

Dictator Anderson of Gurian:
Though unable to attend such negotiations myself, I would like to send a representative of the Kingdom. The Royal Government has lifted the deadline imposed on Novaya-Russia, and I too hope for a peaceful resolution.

Best regards,
David Hanson,
Foreign Minister

From the Desk of the Prime Minister:

To Gurian:
We appreciate your willingness to prevent a massive war. The humble Dubocratic Union is in your debt. Let me clarify our position. We had mentioned an alliance so that the sheer numbers of force would deter such mass genocide in the depotic nation of Novaya-Russia; such an alliance has proven a souce of controversy because of this nation's opposition to crusader-like behavior.

Therefore, I suggest that we discuss the matters of peacekeeping over dinner. I would be delighted to accept your broad invitation to all who wish to meet with you.

To the Merchant Guilds:
Your warmongering intentions do not reflect your so-called beliefs in a merciful God. The conflict over Novaya-Russia exists not because it is an affront to the church, but that it is an affront to human rights. God should not be enforced, nor should atheism. Therefore, we wish that you join me at a meeting with Dictator Anderson (should he accept) to work out the details of our disagreement.

To Malkyer:
We wish to congradulate you on your masterful handling of this situation, but wish to know further clarification of your intentions on the matter of Novaya-Russia itself.

The Prime Minister of the Dubocratic Union,
Theodore Jefferson

To Gurian

I have taken note of your your proposal and the Empire is prepared to accept such a confrence. Your idea seems wise indeed. I am preparing to fly to Gurian withen the next few hours and with your permission we ask to land in the city of your choosing. We hope higher causes may prevail.

Sincerely,
Lord Khustanov
Minister of Foreign Affairs.

From the Desk of the Prime Minister:
To Malkyer:
We wish to congradulate you on your masterful handling of this situation, but wish to know further clarification of your intentions on the matter of Novaya-Russia itself.

The Prime Minister of the Dubocratic Union,
Theodore Jefferson

I intend to continue to protest the actions of their government in diplomatic channels, and I may suggest to the King or Prime Minister the institution of economic sanctions against Novaya-Russia. There are other options being considered, but as of yet they are classified. It would not do to reveal all of our cards, no?

Best regards,
David Hanson,
Foreign Minister

Dictator Anderson quickly sent out a message.

MESSAGE TO ALL INVOLVED IN THE CONFLICT

A conference location has been set. It will be held in San Gurian, the second largest city in Gurian which is adjacent to the largest beach in Gurian and the Islands of Gorlon. Leaders are only allowed three personal bodyguards, but security will be provided.

The actual meeting will occur in the Herin Hotel, a very classy hotel with a long history of diplomatic meetings. A private conference room has been secured, and hotel security has been beefed up. Reservations have already been arranged, and upon arrival you will be given the suites in the hotel.

After the meeting, all of you are invited to stay in Gurian a bit longer. The Herin Hotel has a wonderful beach, reknown throughout Gurian. If you wish, you could also go inland to see Gurian City, the capital of Gurian and its largest city. The Dictatorial Palace is an awesome sight indeed.

Dearest New Russia, you have made several atrocious mistakes.

First, you have underestimated the power of religions in the minds of the foolish and stupid masses.

Second, you have underestimated the stupidity of various "holy empires" around this world that will attempt to quickly and efficiently dismember your government.

Thirdly, your lies about your army have fooled noone. You may have an army of 2,000,000, but your tanks and artillery are pure fiction. Do not try to fool us, or we will eat you...alive.

"But Il Duce, you always say Fascism is strong enough for any-"
"DO NOT FEED ME MY OWN PROPAGANDA! We must choose which course to walk. Here I am faced with the same dilemma as Mussolini. Hmmm. Who says we must openly support someone. Gurian is hosting a peace conference yes?"
"Yes Il Duce."
"We will send representitives to the conference...BUT we will supply the Roman Republic with supplies."
"Why not send soldiers?"
"Are you insane!?! First of all we are to small a nation to make any military impact. Secondly Gurian will see our troops and crush us-"
"But Fascism can withstand any-"
"I'LL KILL YOU IF YOU SAY ANYMORE! I hope you took good notes of what I was saying. Now tell the Roman republic discreetly what we are doing and tell the conferance nothing except that we wish to take part in the conference."
"Fascismo avanzato."
"Fascismo avanzato."

From the Desk of the Prime Minister:

To Italia di Fascista:
Sir, I do not mean to quarrel with you, and I have declared no war. I have only condemned war, war in the name of persecution. I have no qualms with Christianity, only that I find its crusaders and avengers to be hypocrites. I do not declare war on your religion, I do not declare war on your religion. I hope we can settle this matter diplomatically.

To Malkyer:
I agree that it is not show your hand before it is time. Would you care to join in the diplomatic meeting on San Gurian? I think progress can be made. Can I ask for at least a private acknowledgement between us that Italy is being quite ridiculous?

To Gurian:
A thousand appologies, but my visit must be brief because of a hostile Italy. I will be there, rest assured. A meeting of such importance as yours requires my direct presence. We are a small country just reconstructing its military from our revolution. As soon as this message is done, I will go on my plane and leave for San Gurian. Again, we are forever in your debt.

The Prime Minister of the Dubocratic Union,
Theodore Jefferson

The prime minister put his pen down and handed the message to aid for sending to Gurian. He cupped his hand on his face and sighed,
"and we were just getting started."
He took a sip of scotch and stood up, and walked into the next room where the aid was processing the message.
"Miss Pennyweather."
"Yes?"
"When you've completed that, I want you to contact the ambassador of Muffinesia to see how many troops he can spare in our aid. We're going to need all that we can get. Ask him especially about anti-air defenses and air superiority fighters. That will be our biggest priority. He might have only 1 or 2 with a completely non-existant air force, just as we have, but it's a long shot I need to take."
"Yes, of course, sir. Right away." She smiled that beautiful smile of hers.
He thought, "thank God I'm not married, or those crazy Italian fanatics might add another offensive to my list of supposed crimes. Sheesh."

OOC:

And yes, we should RP the conference.

Perhaps take turns speaking, for in good conscience we cannot speak for one another.

-Official Ratheian Government Response-

In response to RR's illegal war, we may choose to send in aircraft.

A Rumeran jet decends from the sky landing at the quiet San Gurien airport. Pulled to a taxi way, Lord Khustanov, the Foreign Minister of Rumera, quickly steps down the stairs to the tarmac followed by three tall men in suits. As he approaches two cars a Gurian man steps out.

"Minister Khustanov, if you'll come with me please.

Khustanov follows the gesture and takes a sigh while looking at the stricking twilight of the Gurian landscape.

"Certainly. Let us quickly find a resolution."


Imperial Palace, Rumera
Emperor Vankov lwas studying ardiusly the new unemployment reports when he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened to reveal Count Long. "Sir, nations have began attacks against Novaya Russia." Vankov quickly stands up dropping his pen.
Long continues, "And Italia Di Fascita has threatened strikes against the Dubocatic Union." After a long silence Long asks, "Sire? Your position?"
Vankov: "Italia's threats go against the very caft of human nation and actions may possibly give Novaya-Russia justification for its actions. Yet, it has long been The Empire's position to not maintain relations with illigetimate states and the Union's power is just that by their own admission. Make haste and send a message to Lord Khustanov of this current situation. Let him know that we hold both parties responsible, Italia, the Roman Republic and Novaya Russia. Like wise send this message to The Union . . . ."

To Prime Minister Thomas Jefferson

The Empire has chosen to overlook present political abnormalities in threats that you do face. Although we cannot justify military protection at this moment, we are willing to open border and provide supplies for your nation and refugee camps at request. We are admitably a conservative nation, but we shall always value a human life over ideology.

Are you helping me?? :confused:

From the Desk of the Prime Minister:

To Rumera:
Thank you for your concern. We would be much obliged for help in supplies should a war start. If you could sir, pardon my small moment of weakness in asking for help. You see, I was the leader of a revolution against a brutal formal regime. And it all was finalized into the great Dubocratic Union oh so recently. We are in the progress of aquiring hard military help from our brood brothers, the Muffinesians. The warmongering fascists shall not trample freedom under foot!

The Prime Minister of the Dubocratic Union,
Theodore Jefferson

Are you helping me?? :confused:

From Velikigrad Airbase there was a flurry of excitement.
There was to be a preparation of a 300 aircraft strike force composed of SU-47's and Mig 1.42's. They were to engage RR Aircraft and knock the buggers out of the skies.

OOC: You have already seen the might of my army and it's resources. Send your aircraft back and deal with this diplomatically before I am forced to send the full extent of the New Ratheian Army to cause more destruction.

"You see Giovanni? One speech and they already are asking us to back down!"
"But sir...sources say that he has..uh.."
"What!?!"
"Well lets just say our spies dont think he...uh..respects you."
"Are you crazy? Shall I read you the telegram? It clearly states:
'Sir, I do not mean to quarrel with you, and I have declared no war. I have only condemned war, war in the name of persecution. I have no qualms with Christianity, only that I find its crusaders and avengers to be hypocrites. I do not declare war on your religion, I do not declare war on your religion. I hope we can settle this matter diplomatically.' Do you see? Everything is as it seems!
"But... well let me play back what we picked up:
'... a..k for ....... private ackn...ement bet..... us that Italy is being quite ridiculous?' Il Duces face was getting red.
'but my.... must be...because...hostile Italy.'
"Il Duce, our sources say he is even mobolizing troops!"
"This is...bad. What can we do Giovanni?
"Well we could send delegates to the peace conference before anyone else! It would seem like we wanted peace the most"
"Yes! But what of The Dubocratic Union?"
"We could send them a letter of apology...and...some useless crap we have here! But we'll say they are priceless!"
"Your a genious Giovanni!"

What god mod. Read the post before with the pic of the Osprey. They have been deployed and paradropped

In a Agency of Protection Satellite interpretation base beneath Kunansk Mountain...

"Sir. I think you should come look at this."

The young cadet looked flummoxed, dumbfounded, and every other synonym for that damn word. He scanned the strange Satellite feed he was getting as Satellite 19 delivered it's impressive photographs of RR's capital to the base. His Commanding Officer appeared behind him.

"What is it, John?" He looked down at him with a crooked smile.

The cadet pointed at the screen to something moving about in RR's capital, bearing the Flag of Italia di Fascista on it's back.

The Officer looked at it and quirked and eyebrow.

"Is that...is that...a telegram cat?" He fell over laughing as the Satellite copied the images to the archive. Soon, the entire control room was laughing as they each went up in turn to see that Telegram Cat.

A large helicopter lands at San Gurien airport. 3 men of large stature step out of the copter in Mafia-esque suits.
"Sirs, welcome to San Gurien!" The three men glare at him.
"Ehi Tony! Guardare quest'idiota!" All three of them laugh.
"Uh I'm sorry but I don't speak Italian."
"Il Vinny la fa ha la bomba nella sua cartella o è in me?"
"No, è in me!"
"Oh ok. Now sir, I believe you have a vechicle waiting for us?"

Okay. No I am not stupid in real life. Even in hostile territory, a Spec op mission aircraft can sneak past defenses. but I'll wait. I kiss you Russian Dad for Spetnaz luck. Your no match against me and crappy Russian weapons.

Okay. No I am not stupid in real life. Even in hostile territory, a Spec op mission aircraft can sneak past defenses. but I'll wait. I kiss you Russian Dad for Spetnaz luck. Your no match against me and crappy Russian weapons.

No.

No aircraft can sneak past a barrier of several hundred S-300 and -400 missile systems.

And to say that I am no match against you is folly, RR.

When I choose to attack, you will pay.

"Holy shit, send this to high command. Looks like we've got another power player."

They chuckled.

TO: Niccolo Machaivelli II
FROM: Yura Gruzinich-Minister of Defence

We have obtained information that you may be entering this war on behalf of Roman Republic.

It would be advisable for you to pull out, because no matter what side you take your tiny country will be devastated.

Dictator Anderson was sitting in the Presidential Suite at the Hotel. There was always work to be done. He glanced outside, appreciating the sunny, cloudless day. Everything seemed perfect for the conference, when suddenly an aide burst in.

"SIR!" he shouted. "We have a major situation! The Roman Republic is sending in troops to Novaya Russia!" Dictator Anderson opened his eyes wide and was speechless for a few moments.

"How do we compare militaristically?" Dictator Anderson asked.

"We outnumber them and have slightly better equipment as well, sir," the aide replied. Dictator Anderson felt a little better.

(OOC: Note that for this assumption I am simply going by population, economy, and longetivity. Gurian has about twice as many people as the Roman Republic meaning more soldiers, a better economy meaning better equipment, and has been around longer giving it more time to develop technologies. I believe this is a reasonable assumption for now, but I am willing to retract it if I see a good reason to.)

"Alright, call in General Jimali. Have him meet me in the conference room in ten minutes. Call in the other delegates too," Dictator Anderson requested.

"Alright, I'm on it, sir," the aide said. With that, he rushed out of the room.

Dictator Anderson ran for his laptop. He opened it and quickly booted it up. He sent a message to get the Gurian Navy ready for deployment and also wrote out a statement for the aggressors.

Attn: All Attacking Novaya Russia

This is Dictator Anderson of Gurian. I request that you cease your hostilities immediately. Failiure to do so will result in the use of force used against your men.

While it is deplorable what Novaya Russia has done, attacking them is the wrong way to go about dealing with it at this point in time! An attack would kill many, many civillians. The only difference would be that instead of Novaya Russia killing them, you would be killing them. You would probably be killing more of them too.

We must start by seeking a diplomatic solution! I have organized a peace conference in San Gurian which you are free to attend. It may be possible to come to a peaceful resolution with Novaya Russia -- a peaceful solution that would have no casualties. Do not throw away lives needlessly, and please help support the cause of peace.

I would like to remind you that until diplomatic measures are attempted, I will be defending Novaya Russia from attack. Come to the conference and talk first. If a peaceful solution cannot be created, then we will attack together. In the meantime, again, I urge you to stop the assault.

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

With this message sent, Dictator Anderson made his way to the conference room. He took a seat at the head of the table and waited for the rest of the representatives to arrive.

TO: Gurian
FROM: Ratheian High Command

We are pleased that another nation shares our viewpoint.

Dictator Anderson received this message, and replied.

TO: Ratheian High Command

Does this mean you will be contributing soldiers to assist?

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

TO: Gurian
FROM: Ratheian High Command

If it is required, our military is with you.

The three delegates from Fascist Italy walked into the conference room and promptly sat down. One bent close to the others ear.
"Il Vinny, hanno il discovred le nostre maglie alla Repubblica di Roma?"
"Sì. Dunque fa attenzione che lei dice! Duce di Il ci vuole negare tutta l'implicazione!"

"Gentelmen! Let us begin with the peace talks. As you know we are totally commited to peace. But we also believe that Novaya Russia should pay for it's crimes. What say you?"
With that they all set down thier briefcases at once and relaxed in thier chair. They could only hope that peace talks would be quick.

At the San Gurean Hotel

Lord Khustanov was walking from the car finishing up a conversation on the secure cellular phone, "Yes Your majesty, I'll be sure to put pressure on those points during the confrence."
Putting the phone in his pocket a Gurian man ran up to him,
"Lord Khustanov, Welcome to the confrence. Would you like to see your accomodations and our facilities?"
"No that will be all right. I'd honestly like to get straight to business, however could one of your men give my guard here, Vassily, a tour and his partner to take my things to my room?"
"That'll be fine sir. If you follow me I'll take you to the confrence room." He radioed to the upper security.
"Sir, the delgate from Rumera has arrived. We are proceeding to the confrence room currently."

Dictator Anderson frowned at the delegates, and quickly called for translators.

"We have a situation. There has been an assault on Novaya Russia. I am moving my military to intercept them. In the meantime, I have issued a warning telling them to cease their actions. I have called you here not for peace talks, but to observe these proceedings. Now then, the General will talk to you while I quickly do something."

Dictator Anderson went off and began to write.

TO: Ratheian High Command

I would appreciate your military assisting ours. I would like to coordinate our operations jointly, though. Send some people over to San Gurian and we can coordinate our forces from here.

Don't Have Enough Time to Sign,
Sorry

"The delagate from Rumera is here?!?" Sweat started to drip from Vinny's brow. Giovanni grabbed a hold on him
"Keep your cool or I'll break your legs."
"Y-yes."
"Ok then." He stopped whispering.
"This is an outrage! We may be small but we should fully be allowed to take place in the talks! If we are not fully included what is to stop us from...oh I don't know...SUPPLING THE ROMAN REPUBLIC!" Vinny leaned over to Giovanni
"Ha indossato prendere troppo matto. Duce di Il l'ucciderebbe!"

Khustanov entered as the talks were beginning to proceed. He noticed the dictator handing a message to an assistant and the Italians getting quite nervous in the background with one talking angrily to the other.

He leaned to his body guard and whispered, "Be prepared for immediate action on my marks. Notify Vassily."

"Hello Signore ! It is good to see a delagate from Rumera here. Isn't that right Vinny?"
"Y-yes. Very happy."
"Tell me Signore, you think we should have full ability to talk in this meeting, yes?" Vinny leaned over to Giovanni
"Dovremmo fare realmente questo?"
"Duce di Il lo comanda."

"Alright, we have a situation!" Dictator Anderson shouted. "People are attacking Novaya Russia. I am sending forces to intercept them, like I said I would. I called you here so that we could discuss THIS situation. The peace talks are when Novaya Russia's diplomat comes. Now then, comments?"

The Italians seemed phiscally shaken by the shouting. Vinny stood up.
"Come la fa pensa che lei sia, il maiale liberale! Dovrei spararla nella sua faccia!"
"VINNY SIT DOWN!" And with that he sat like nothing happeaned.
"Good sir, Fascist Italy wants only peace. We wish to help you curb the Roman Republic's agression. But can you blame him? Perhaps if you give him a land deal. How about this. If it comes to war the Roman Republic gets 25% of Novaya-Russia. But if he attacks without peace talks...he loses all territorial claims. Sounds fair to us. Of course...what do we get if Italy gets him to back down?"

Hustanov gets up and speaks:
Rumera is strongly against the actions of Novaya Russia and as has been mentioned previously we have been prepared with military action if their pogroms start. however, peace is still attainable. We strongly condemn RR for their reckless actions as those that should assist them *glances toward Italia* We must have the Roman Republic to cease any action against the Novaya Russia until after the peace confrence. Rumera shall offer its assistance. Be warned though that Novaya Russia cannot go eventually unpunished.

Dictator Anderson spoke.

"Until Novaya Russia sends diplomats, we cannot talk. In the meantime, let us concentrate on the issue at hand."

Sweat started to pour down Vinny's brow.
They know. They know. Giovanni stood up.
"I have no idea what you are hinting at but we are firmly for peace!
If your implying something perhaps it would be best for it to stay within the realms of your mind!" He fiddled with his suit.

My nation cannot accept such a terrible thing and have ordered the 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 army cores ato invade Novaya-Russia.

1st Army Core
1,200,000 Royal Regualrs
8000 Paladin Tanks
3100 Commanches
1900 F-18s

2nd Army Core
800,000 Royal Guards

4th Arny Core
2,000,000 Imperial Troops
12,000 Paladins

400,000 Imperial Knights
51,000 Humvees(distruted in all divsions)
4000 F-18s
6000 Paldin Tanks

An aide rushed into the conference room.

"The Scandinvans are sending troops to Novaya Russia!" he shouted.

"WHAT THE HELL!?" Dictator Anderson shouted, clearly surprised. He regained his composure. "Alright, gentlemen, we have a new issue. Excuse me while I go send a warning." Dictator Andreson sat down and started typing furiously on his laptop.

TO: The Scandinvans

This is Dictator Anderson of Gurian, pull back your forces! Do not attack Novaya Russia until the peace talks are over! If you fail to do so, I will be forced to attack your men.

If you wish to come to the peace talk, it is in San Gurian. You may send a single delegate with three bodyguards. Call off your attack and try peace first.

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

Giovanni slammed his fists on the table.
"This is an absolute debacle! You want us to tell the Roman Republic to stop attacking while SCANDINAVIANS are moving in? What power does this conference have? Italians do not stand idle while accusations are being thrown about*Looks toward Rumera delagate* and keep talking while we are losing possible terriotorial claims! And Fascists sure as hell don't! You had better make it damn clear the reason why we don't just ally with the Roman Republic! There had better be something in it for us!" He looked toward Vinny. "Lei può credere questi sciocchi?"
"La calma di Giovanni giù."
"LEI NON ME DICE NIENTE! QUESTO È MATTO! NON SIAMO DEI FASCISTI I TOPI!" With that Giovanni sat down and stared at all the delagates.
"Femmine!"

****************ROME***********************
********************************************
"Il Duce, so far delagations aren't doing very well."
"How so?"
"Well it seems that Gurian has very little control over the situation. Scandinavians have moved into Novaya-Russia. A large force of them!"
"WHAT? But that means less land for us! I knew we should have sided with the Roman Republic! At least then we would have colonies!"
"But sir...remember the fate of Mussolini..."
"Yes...perhaps it is a little early to pull out of peace talks. But tell the delagates to agree to nothing unless we get territorial claims!"
"Fascismo Avanzato."
"Fascismo Avanzato."

The Prime Minister's airplane landed at the San Gurian Intl. Airport. Out first of the plane stepped a rather well built man in a brown suit, and behind him the Prime Minister, and then another well built man in a black suit.

The Prime Minister was greeted by an aid of the Gurians.
"Mr. Prime Minister, there is a situation. The Scandinvans have a large force to invade Novaya Russia."
"What? I didn't think anyone would dare after all the threat of power that would be against them with the Gurian government's position."
"It was a surprise to us too, sir."
"Take me to the hotel."

When they arived at the hotel, the Prime Minister opened the door with him and his suits in triangular formation.
"Greetings, delegates, Mr. Dictator. I am Theodore Jefferson, Prime Minister of the Dubocratic Union. Your aid has told me of the Scandinvan situation. I didn't think that such an issue would arrise with the already full plate we are served with here, but I am sure that we can deal with it. Just so you aren't startled, a delegation from my brother state, Muffinesia may be arriving as well. Now, let us begin these essential talks."

Dictator Anderson stood up and looked at everyone grimly.

"Gentlemen, I have just been notified that our forces are about to intercept the Roman Republic's forces. The Scandinvans are a while back. God help us all, gentlemen, God help us all. Even though we outnumber them and outclass them."

Dictator Anderson grinned.

My forces will not stop to the until you allow your people to have freedom of religion once more until then cosider your nation foreight and your Novaya-Russia and you will become a colony and your people will be enslaved.

" If you do not recognize us...WE WILL FIGHT ALONGSIDE THE ROMAN REPUBLIC AND SCANDINAVIA! YOU HAD BETTER GIVE US GOOD REASON NOT TO! SPEAK NOW!!!!!!!" Giovanni had grown quite tired of politics.

Dictator Anderson sent a message to the Scandinvans.

To: The Scandinvans

First of all, my nation is twice as powerful as yours. Good luck with making me a colony and enslaving my people. Ironic, isn't it? You don't mind enslaving people, but people have to have freedom of religion.

Second, I am not affiliated with them. I agree that it is detestable that they do not have freedom of religion. I believe, though, that war is a LAST RESORT. If we go to war with them, then WE WILL KILL THE PEOPLE THAT YOU WANT TO GIVE FREEDOM OF RELIGION TO! All I ask is that you come to our peace conference to try to reach a diplomatic solution before blowing them all to hell.

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

Dictator Anderson heard the Italians.

"If you want your men to die, then fight. If you want to kill the people you are trying to liberate, then fight. If you want to cause suffering, then fight. If you want to solve this problem without bloodshed, then stay."

"Oh you want us to stay eh? Vinny can you believe this Fica?
We have asked you several times to tell us what is in this dioplamcy for us!"
"Giovanni just tell them! Just tell them why we are important."
"Fine! We are suppling the Roman Republic! We can get them to pull out if we withold supplies! But you have not swayed us in any way to your side. Tell us, what can you offer us that the Scandinaviansor the Republic can't? ANSWER ME THAT!"

Using that for an expession to just threaten I wouldn't actually enslave it means that they shall becime citzens of my nation after I defeat you and then when your hte time is right they shall have their own state again.

Lord Khustanov, stands up and shouts.

"THis has gotten ridiculous! I have returned and consulted with our senate. Rumera will place santions on Scandanavia, the Roman Republica and Italia Di Fascita! No Rumeran subject shall be allowed to enter their territory nor shall any of their citizens enter ours. There warmongering has worstened the situation and has likely expediated the killing of God-fearing people in Novaya -Russia. We condemn you both and the emperor shall be consulted on further action towards you."
He galnces towards the dictator

"I'm glad of you're calling this meeting, but My country can not particpate in this bloodshead anymore. too many people will be killed and we can no longer particpate. I will however stay for the week and wait for Novaya Russia's ambassador."

He then looks to To the arriving Dubocratic Prime Minister,
"My emperor has also agreed to put your nation under protection if it is attacked by another. He also states a desire for an exchange of political embassies and facilities."

Rumera, will not particpate any longer in this killing."
Khustanov shakes his head as he returns to his seat.

"Sit down. Vinny of the Italian delegation, let me remind you that the Gurian army is fully capable of preventing both the Roman Republic and the Scandinvans from completing their goal, so what you will gain is peace and quiet of not having foolishly supplied warmongerers. Italy, like the Dubocratic Union, is a small, freshly formed nation. I like gall, sir, I do, but your audacity outweighs your sanity if you prepose to ally yourselves with the Roman Republic or the Scandinvans. And on that note, The Dubocratic Union pledges any support that we can muster for the cause of peacekeeping."

"Lord Khustanov, the people of the Dubocratic Union thank you. It would be our honor to accept any support that you may give. As for the exchange of embassies, it will be arranged as quickly as the embassies can be built.

As for sanctions and embargoes, the Dubocratic Union will wait until the Novaya-Russia ambassador arrives for any action of such to be made. Of course, if there are other circumstances, the Union reserves the right take part in Rumera's action."

Dictator Anderson sent a message to the Scandinvans.

To: The Scandinvans

First off, big words about liberating my people and giving them back their state. In case you haven't noticed, I give my people civil rights. The United Nations classifies Gurian as a benevolent dictatorship. You, on the other hand, are classified as a corrupt dictatorship. If anyone should be liberated, it should be your people.

Second, give me one good reason that we should go to war instead of trying peace talks first. I simply want to try to resolve this in a peaceful manner. IF after negotiations Novaya Russia decides to keep up this policy, THEN we can attack. Why are you so quick to go to war instead of try for peace? Do you really want to kill the people you are trying to liberate when you have a choice not to?

Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

Using that for an expession to just threaten I wouldn't actually enslave it means that they shall becime citzens of my nation after I defeat you and then when your hte time is right they shall have their own state again.

Dictator Anderson fired back a reply.

To: The Scandinvans

Just tell me why we should go to war without trying to find a peaceful solution first.

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

P.S. I miscalculated how much more powerful Gurian is. The actual number is closer to 6 times as powerful.

"AS it shall be done likewise. Sanctions currently are only maintained against those nations attacking Novaya-Russia. Rumera has from the beggining maintained that Novaya-Russia's actions are evil, but to attack with out at least giving them a chance to account for their actions would make us no less if not more guilty than that nation. Thus, the card has come to what will Novaya-Russia do?"

The General ran out. He whispered something in Dictator Anderson's ear. Dictator Anderson seemed upset.

"Thank you, General," Dictator Anderson said. "You are dismissed." Dictator Anderson looked at everyone in the room.

"Gentlemen, our forces have gotten in a defensive position around Novaya Russia. Roman Republic and Scandinvan forces are just about to come within firing range. Now it is do or die. A battle will break out unless we do something about it."

In private to Rumera:

"Rumera, while we are on the subject of war, may we ask for a small contingent of warrant officers to help train our air force? For more, I turn it over to my Secretary of War and Logistics, Lucas Sherman."

"Greetings. This is just a friendly request. In the case of attack, we wish to be able to defend our skies, and the best way to do that is by air-superiority. Our current inventory of aircraft shows 4 MiG-21's and 1 MiG-23. It is enough to hold our skies for the sake of immediate defense, no? We wish to train pilots, but unfortunately, all men of military aircraft knowledge perished in our revolution, as the government bombed serveral centers of dissent. Anyways, what would you say to our request?"

"Xenonier, your words are harsh, and I sense that your heart is cold... Are you so willing to allow your people to trick themselves, should you not, as their leader do what is best for them? Your threats are petty. We will decalre you a neutral nation as of now, and as long as you do not start war with us... we will have no reason to start war with you, as of now... If our paths are destined to cross, they will... We shall have to be patient and see..."

OCC: If and when there is a war, it will be a modern war, no space fleets and such...

OOC: That's why I said if you attack me. I'm not fighting unless somebody pulls me into it, and I'm making that clear to do so is pulling a Space Tech nation into this.

I am not their leader. I am their servant, as any intelligent leader should be. I serve them, and they can have me democratically thrown out at any time. I do not make the decisions, my people do, and I merely add my voice to them all. I am aware I am cold - it is my duty. I make sure if anyone asks me for advice, which my people invariably do, it is unbiased, and unaffected by emotion.

No Xenonian Belives in God - we are heading towards a conclusion otherwise. But who am I to take away civil rights earned by being a sentient being?

And their voice says you are no leader. Mind you, most people who lead aren't fit too, so don't feel left out.

Arkady Gregorovich, President Speaker of Xenonier.

To The Dubocratic Union: Private channels

We can assist you in such a request. We shall send ten airmen trainers along with 30 additional men that are trained in maintaining avation. We would ask if lodging be provided along with rail passes of your nation for these men in order to better able perform their job. As such, the MiG 21 and 23' are not as common in our air force as we have prefered to move to later modified Rumeran models and the Shukhovs. As such it would be easier to train if we could bring in three of our aircraft. Also in the mean time while your skys are unprotected we are willing to base a wing nearby. I hope the arraingement will be satisfactory.

OCC: Where exactly is The Dubocratic Union located? Just as a Point of Reference I normally put Rumera's border around in Siberia and in the east 100 miles north of Moscow. How we fit 680,000,000 people there I have no idea *chuckles*

-Official Ratheian Government Response-

Dearest New Russia, you have made several atrocious mistakes.

First, you have underestimated the power of religions in the minds of the foolish and stupid masses.

Second, you have underestimated the stupidity of various "holy empires" around this world that will attempt to quickly and efficiently dismember your government.

Thirdly, your lies about your army have fooled noone. You may have an army of 2,000,000, but your tanks and artillery are pure fiction. Do not try to fool us, or we will eat you...alive.

Do your best to correct these mistakes before they lead to your devastation.

-End Transmission- OCC: I have links if you dont believe me... And my navy is no small force either. I havent finished reading the enire thread yet so this post will probably be edited.

My, my, thought Hanson. The shit has officially hit the fan.

Telegram to all involved:
To every nation involved in the current situation with Novaya-Russia, I wis to make it absolutely clear that the Kingdom of Malkyer maintains a position of neutrality. Make no mistake, were it not for the...persuasive arguments of Gurian, we would be right next to the Roman Republic and Scandinvans in their fight. Moreoever, Gurian's inability or unwillingness, whichever it may be, to bring about a "peaceful" solution is made clear in light of these new events. They have not followed through on their previous declarations, and have lost international respect. True, they have deployed some soldiers for defense, but as of yet no action has been taken against the aggressors. This lack of a reaction in kind is disappointing, especially from a nation that offers such bluster as Gurian.

David Hanson,
Foreign Minister

OOC: Hanson is a bit of a hot-head, and isn't representative of the entire Malkyeri government or nation. Basically, Malkyer respects Gurian's stance, but that respect was lost when their promise to defend Novaya-Russia in case of invasion was not acted upon by invading RR and Scandinvans. The people of Malkyer saw this as a dishonorable act, not fulfilling a commitment. Just wanted to clear that up.

OOC: In case you didn't notice, we are protecting them. Our troops are in a defensive position and the rest are moving in.

OOC: Ah, my apologies. I just sort of skimmed the past couple of pages, so I probably missed it. I'll edit.

The Czar stands in the grand palace of Kosnov. The leader of the Royal Intellignece Service stands with him. My lord, the Roman Republic has declared war on us. What shall we do? The Czar replies, mobilize the Royal navy. We have over a thousand ships, I want the roman republic stopped at all costs. Ready the airforce to to engage any and all enemy aircraft within novaya russian airspace. Take advantage of our 1 million anti air craft batteries, and move them into strategic locations throughout the country. Have the Army mobilize and prepare them to move out on my signal. Notify all other countries that the Czar has thought of what the leaders of other countries have said, and agreed to lessen punishments, from death, to prison time for the worship of god. He is also willing to send diplomats. To any and all hostile nations, Novaya Russia may not be enormous, but its army is well equipped, it has massive numbers of tanks and artillery, a million anti aircraft batteries, and a well sized airforce, and a large and very well trained navy.

OCC: here is a link to my artillery and tanks. http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=8108299#post8108299 If anyody doubts my airforce power, or my naval power, then ask for links and they will be provided.

In private to Rumera:

Thank you very much for your willingness to help. The most excellent lodging in the region of the airbase will be made available to your men, free of charge. Rail passes will furnished for your men by the time that they arrive.

The Dubocratic Union is some 250 miles east of Kamchatka, and the air base will shown to your men upon arrival. Again, many thanks. All communications facilities are open to you, so that you may effectively coordinate efforts. Is there anything else the gracious people of the Dubocratic Union may provide?

You may in the future use our territory as a staging point for any of your operations if it is convenient.

The Czar of Novaya Russia also commends the leader of Gurian on keeping his promise, and if at all possible, will repay the debt...

Later that week, the Czar meets with is top advisors. Sir, our nukes are pointed at every major city in all the hostile countries. Hopefully we will not have to resort to using such drastic measures. Very good. And what of the Grand admiral? He says he has moved his ships in a defensive blockade around our island nation. What of the air force? They are a bit behind schedule, my lord, but I assure you we will have them battle ready as soon as possible. And the Army? The anit aircraft batteries are in position, your majesty. The tanks are in position, but the infantry and artillery are lagging behind. But we are sure that if the time comes when our enemies break through our navy, they will be ready for them. Upon arrival to their destinations, we will have them dig trench holes and foxholes, and artillery will be moved to strategical positions. To avoid getting wiped out by enemy aircraft we will have to move the anti aircraft batteries with us wherever we go, which will slow us down but it will be worth it.

"These peace talks are over then." With that both of the delagates walked out of the room. Without thier briefcases. Fascist Italy may have been small but it was not going to be dishonored. Both of them knew that they could strike an alliance with Scandanavia and The Roman Republic. AfrikasKorps would also love to enslave a nation.They had been told that a new fascist government had risen up in Lazy Bums. They had said themselves that they wanted to 'scratch thier war itch.' Giovanni held the detanator in his hand as he climbed into the copter. When they were halfway to Fascist Italy Giovanni pressed the glowing red button...

The brief cases opened up and did not explode, but blew pamplets into the conference room. Only after the large cloud fell to the ground could the delagates read them. The pamplets simply said:
"How to beg for mercy"

As soon as the Italians had left the room, The Prime Minister told his black-suited friend Bart to bomb check the briefcase. He knew the Italians were volotile and would try anything.

Bart figured out it was a bomb. As soon as that happened, a professional bomb squad from the Gurian police force was sent in. They diffused the situation.

OOPS! Scratch what I just said, I didn't refresh and just replied, didn't see Italia's edit. I'll keep mine up for entertainment's sake, but Italia's post is what really happened.

Fascist Italy has declared war on Novaya Russia, has stopped all trade with The Dubocratic Union and Gurian, and has allied itself with The Roman Republic and Scandanavia.
:mp5: :mp5: :mp5: :mp5: :mp5: :mp5: :mp5: :mp5:

Dictator Anderson watched as the forces of the sides just entered firing range.

"General, order all our men to hold fire until attacked first! Tell them NOT to let them through, though."

"Affirmative," the General replied.

Dictator Anderson ran to his laptop, and quickly prepared a message.

To: All Involved

I don't want my men to die. So I will make this simple. Novaya Russia, are you going to come to the conference? If you are not, then I will join the attacking forces. Otherwise, I will defend you until we can come to an agreement.

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

In response to the declaration of war by Fascist Italy, novaya russia has officially aknowledged Fascist Italy as an Militarily Hostile Nation, and has responded with its own declaration of war.

Dictator Anderson slammed his fist on the table. What the hell was this guy doing?

To: Novaya Russia

Will you come to the conference? I need an answer NOW. God damn it man, answer me!

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

To gurian, we are reasonable, we are willing to send diplomats, and attempt to reach a settlement.
OCC: I do not aknowledge any forces who attacked me while I was away, becuase that is god modding. Surely you dont believe that my navy would just sit there while you stormed our beaches? If you want to invade us, then do so, but you will have to get through our navy. IC:And gurian, before we compromise, your troops must immediately leave Novaya russian soil, becuase as of now you may be an ally, but tommorrow you may be an enemy, so if you want to negotiate, you will have to withdraw all forces from my country.

OOC: Just pretend that my forces are there in defensive formation and their forces are coming in. They have just entered firing range, no shots fired yet.

Dictator Anderson shouted, "YESSSSS!" He was ecstatic. "Gentlemen, all of you still here, Novaya Russia has agreed to come here! A peaceful solution is possible!" A few aides cheered. Dictator Anderson quickly send out a notice.

To: All Involved

Novaya Russia has agreed to come to our conference! A peaceful solution is within our grasp! I ask everyone, please cease your assault, at least for the time-being. We invite all of the "hostile" nations to come to the conference. I hope to see all of you there.

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

Dictator Anderson also sent out a message to Novaya Russia.

To: Novaya Russia

Right now there are many enemies who may try to assassinate you en route to the conference. I would like to offer you refuge aboard the USS Buri, the Gurian Navy's largest battleship. The vessel can withstand a massive pounding in case hostilities do erupt. You will be escorted by a number of lesser vessels as well. You will remain safe.

An aircraft has just been sent to pick you up. It will not enter firing distance of the enemy at any time during transit. You will remain safe, be assured.

Also, for now, cease killing believers in God.

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

Gurian, as stated before, we have ceased the death penalty and now its just prison time. However, I will not waver on that. I would prefer to go aboard the flagship of my navy, The USS Posiedon. It is a battleship of our own making, and is about 5 times larger than any ship in our fleet. Needless to say, I will be escorted by RIS(Royal Intelligence Service) Agents, and any attempt on my life, will cease all negotiations.

Dictator Anderson proceeded to simply wait. To wait for Novaya Russia's leader to come. To wait to see what others would do.

"So...um....while we wait. Do you want to play a game of chess?"

Vankov looks up from his computer at the latests message. "Well, I'll be damned. They actually did come to the confrence."

Wires a message to Private Khustanov:

"THe Peace Confrence has just been approved. Please note that currently we do hold the Roman Republic and Italia currently responsible for hostilities. Also try to press Novaya Russia into perhaps a trade in welcoming their God Believing citizens. Finally, if war is deemed neccesary against Novaya-Russia use your best judgement. Our military is currently at full rediness and is mobilized.

Emperor Vankov

The Prime Minister grinned when Dictator Anderson pounded the table with ecstacy.

"Hooray! Now we play the waiting game."

The Prime Minister now declares no more trade with Fascist Italy or any of her allies. None of our citizens shall visit Italy, nor shall any of Fascist Italy's citizens gain entry to the Dubocratic Union.

"So they want to give peace another go? Hmph. What are we to do?"
"Sir a nation calling themselves The Necro-Omar has agreed to help us. They are of decent size."
"Hm. What are we to do. I know Lazy bums will gladly jump into war."
"If I may make a suggestion"
"What Giovanni?"
"Go to the Peace conference. But keep your declaration of war. This way they will first have to convince you to drop out of war. But since your keeping it, your allies ca still be ready to strike."
"Good work Giovanni. This time I want only you to be sent."
*************************************************************
Giovanni found himself at the door of the conference room once again. With another briefcase. He himself didn't know what this one held. His directions had been to open it as soon as he sat down.
He opened the door and promptly sat at the seat he had sat in only moments ago. He opened the briefcase. It contained a TV monitor. On it was the image of Il Duce himself.
"Gentlemen. This time I will take part in the delagations myself. Shall we start to neogtiate the terms?"

Khustanov: We Rumerans are horrible at chess. How bout are national game, "Rumeran Rulette.

(OOC: I started an IRC channel for us to join.

irc.esper.net
#novayarussia

Join up and we can RP there.)

Dictator Anderson smiled seeing everyone enter the conference. Getting the leader of Novaya Russia here would take a while and might be dangerous, so they would just have to wait for the time being.

"Chess is a thinking man's game. Roulette is a game of luck, pure luck. I prefer to improve my skill rather than hope I get lucky."

We will stand by our ally, Fascist Italy, if it goes to war. We will not attened the conference though. Whatever Italy agrees on, we shall.

The Czar stands on the deck of the massive battleship. Wind blowing his hair back he sighs. What should he do? He doesnt really believe taht negotiations will solve anything, he is mainly coming because he needs to buy some time, and because Gurian had its military on Novaya Russia soil, and it may be dangerous to cross them, at least army to army. He still believes firmly that he should lead the crusade against religion and god, but he is a little less rash now, and realizes it may not have been the wisest thing to kill so many of his own people. In any case, if anything were to happen to him, his 19 year old son, prince Sergie would be heir to the throne and fight on in his stead. And finally, he saw the shores of Guriann coming into view.

"Ah, but a thinking man knows the value of luck. As one of our emperors used to say, always count on luck. It always reduces everything down to a fifty percent chance. It'll either go your way . . . or it won't"

"I am a chess player, sir, but perhaps we should please all? How about poker? It is a game of both skill and of luck."

The Prime Minister managed a grin, even when there is all of this hostility in the air.

OOC: I'm downloading mIRC right now, but I think that we should keep everything on board so that no one misses a beat and that it is all documented. Plus who can play non-stop? A slower pace is good for everyone to keep up with.

(OOC: Agreed. We'll just kind of do casual stuff there.)

The battleship from Novaya Russia was told to stop outside San Gurian Bay. A helicopter was dispatched to pick up the leader of Novaya Russia.

occ: same here, I'm downloding a chatting software. I should have it ready in four minutes.

The czar rode in the helicopter with 4 handpicked RIS special agents. The helicopter descended onto a helipad, and the Czar made his way into the meeting room.

From a rather secretive air base built into a mountain near Kulutel...

A Myasischev 55V took off into the skies, heading to it's crusing speed of Mach 3.1 It was an impressive private transport, and it was delivering President Zaitsev and several others to San Gurian.

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

From Velikgrad airbase...

A rather impressive group of fighter aircraft took off into the air, heralding the beginning of Ratheian Military Operations against RR invaders. It was composed of one hundred and fifty SU-47's and an equal number of Mig 1.44's. They were to fly to New Russia and proceed to fight off any enemy aircraft that may be patrolling.

With refueling, they will be there within 8 hours.

Dictator Anderson watched the leader of Novaya Russia enter the room.

"Welcome to San Gurian. Now then, we are here to discuss the issue of your dealing with non-God believers. I would like to request that you cease all of what you are doing and grant people complete freedom of religion."

The Prime Minister tapped his fingers on the table.
At that moment, the Novaya Russia delegation entered the room.

"Finally, you have arrived. I am Theodore Jefferson of the Dubocratic Union, sit down Mr. Czar."

OOC: If you care, here's a slightly old map of my region. Low Tide no longer exists, but the geography is about right.

http://us.share.geocities.com/chris_657/Gorlon.bmp

EDIT: Yeah, sorry about the BMP. The JPEG has terrible quality, and all the labels are smudged.

High Command considers this blatant violation of the sovereignty of another nation's government to be despicable, more so even than the act which sparked it all.

Ordinarily, I would have convened the Chief Generals to discuss whether or not to move our own forces in and bring this charade to a quick and brutal end, however, the victims of all this are just as bad as the aggressors. Really. What were you thinking when you allowed this information to escape your national borders? Did you believe that the insanely religious would sit idley by leave you to it? They are insanely religious! Of course they weren't.

Although you were acting within your rights as a sovereign nation, you have essentially brought this on yourselves by publicly announcing the news on an international level. For the time being, you will have to rely on the support already being given to you, for we shall not provide anything.

I would, however, like to point out that the near-laughable 'negotiations' made prior to violence were... well, nearly laughable. I am urging all nations involved to enact a cease fire, and if necessary will offer the use of our own facilities as a neutral location for peace talks to commence. Save your militaries for causes actually worth fighting for.

And suddenly, President Zaitsev walked into the room. he was closely followed by Yura Gruzinich (Minister of Defence) and Mikhail Selov (Minister of War).

"What, no refreshments?"

"Ha! Great to see you!" Dictator Anderson smiled. "Please, have a seat. We'll start the talks soon."

I would like to take the time to greet you all personally. The Czar gives a half bow to the people in the meeting room, and proceeds to sit himself down. Before, any official negotiations can begin, I must request that all ally units must be removed from our territory, because as said before, we do not know how this will turn out, and cannot have a possible enemy on our soil.

He nodded to Dictator Anderson and took a seat, his two Ministers flanking him.

"Talks? Good. We'll need to get this whol thing straightened out before Roman Republic tries to raze your country to the ground, Czar."

Yura chuckled as he heard this and remembered the Hatarian conflict...

Gruzinich looked around, mildly annoyed.

"What are we waiting for, then?"

hmmmfff, I highly doubt that the roman republic can even get past our naval forces... But that is not why I have come here today. I have come here to talk. And so I shall. I have allready stated that I will not falter on my decision, I have replaced the death penalty with jail time, and that is as far as I am willing to go.

"I would like you to go farther and grant people complete freedom of religion."

Khustanov:
"Good Czar,
Perhaps we couldcome to anagreement between Novaya Russia and Rumera. Perhaps we will take in your undesirble citizens for an exchange of something you desire perhaps? I'm sure you can see this wisdom and how greatly you all wil benifit. Even more so it will save you much money on not having to jail your citizens.

Gurian, I am sorry, but I cannot do that. However, I am willing to go with Rumera, and exhile all citizens who break the law.

"I could live with you deporting all citizens who agree with God. Gurian would be willing to take them, it's always good to have new citizens."

*Khustanov grins*

We are very glad to hear that. On what terms would you specify?

"Exile, if you must."

Excellent. So if any citizen of Novaya Russia breaks this law, we will exhile them to either Rumera or Gurian. I have no terms, as you are doing me a favor my getting them off of my hands... (sigh) And what will we be doing about the Roman republic and Fascist Italia? As of now, we are still at war, and I wont say no to some allies, perhaps?

Now we must be clear sir. When we are talking about law breakers we are refering to those who commit political crimes against the state, i.e. Beleiving in God.

If we can agree to this, perhaps action can be taken in league with Novaya Russia.

Yes of course. Any persons who break this particular law, involving the worship of god, shall be deported to you.

*smiles*

"Excellent." He waves over Vassily and whispers in his ear "Tell the Emperor that Plan Epsilon has been succesful."

Now Czar, we will be willing to accept these exiles. It helps your nation and it helps mine. As such, Rumera will respect your soverignty and such a noble move."

Takes a sip of water,

"We may perhaps be able to assist your nation in repelling attacks if they do not adhere to the terms of peace that we have set forth in this council. And as you know our relations with Italia have been declining, especially after reports of backhanded dealling has come through our intelligence. We see in these nations that are attacking some primitive imperalistic motives."

occ: I'm going to wait for Italia to give a response before I do move any further.

Dictator Anderson grinned as well.

"It is good that we have come to a peaceful decision. While I still do not think you should be forcing believers of God to leave, deporting them is an alright comprimise. Of course, I will be retracting my forces. I hope that others follow suit."

I will halt my army from anty further warfare but keep them prepared for war
but will just temporial in order to allow some peace talks to occur and we ask that we not be attacked for we have deployed 120 nuclear missles to secret palces and my capital city is hidden to all foriegners so it cannot be attacked but all other cities can the only reason the capital cityu of my nation is hidden because no foriegner or citzen of my nation knowas it location becuase their is only one entrance inot it it exact location know only to the emperor and the Royal family.

OOC: Jesus nine pages in a night (hadn't expected that much), I suppose thats what I get for having a Real Life too :P

IC:




To: All involved in the 'representative' conference

We note the Guilds is not involved in the said deal, despite the fact of being one of the main nations involved in up holding God's Holy Creed. This is truely unacceptable

We would ask why true Catholics (OCC: pre-1966) are not being allowed to come to the Guilds, which represents true Catholicism with it's brother nation such as Guffingford-Panooly, Doomingsland, Farmina and The Imperial Empire (Belem), should not be given as an option for the 'refugees', whose only crime was to worship the One True God, in his True Church. If we were to be included in this settlement the threat of force for Novaya-Russia would be lifted unconditionally.

As for you, Mr. Jefferson the lack of a apology on your part is most saddening, it saddens us to have to force you into apologising to the Holy Father but remember we gave you plenty of room to do so. Thus, we have authorised missile and aerial strikes to begin upon yourself via the Guild military. These will end once a formal apology has been delivered to the Pope (Belem's one) and suitable compensation has been arranged for your insolence.

OOC: Making a new thread might be an idea, and no I won't launch an invasion simply because your a small (newer) nation and I don't go in for that. :) Besides, we need more centre's/lefties...

occ: Great! That's what I get to making promises to smaller nations nearby ;). Now I have to ready my military. I'll particpate in a new thread but I'll leave it up to the Dubocratic Union on whether he wishes to participate or be innocently bombarded and retreat from life

OCC: Wait so what about Italia, and the Roman republic? They did not participate in the conferences, so I have no choice but coninue to wage war with them for the time being... i will make a new thread then. Any help would be appreciated.

OCC:Novaya-Russia, I need a map of your nation and stats like troop formations, locations of cities, positions. Can't RP with out this info.

By noon the Fitlewoodian Fleets were nearing the Novaya-Russia coast, ready to deploy their troops. The OPARR Units were not suited to fighting prolonged conflicts, but their troops could move fast enough that they made exellent Rapid response units, and that is what they were going to do. By 2:00 2,100 marines, a few dozen tanks, about 150 Humvees, and a unit of Howitzers would be landing, supported by 120 F-14 Interceptors. Their mission would be to set up a base of operations on allied soil, and then move out to take out as many hostiles as they could before the rest of the invasion fleet arrived.

OOC: Had RL world problems

Today Il Duce has decided to pull back on his call to war. When asked why he stated "Italians have always been the one wanting peace. At that blasted conference we were the only ones who did not want to go to war." Il Duce also said he wanted to say something to Novaya Russia on this channel:
"We ask for these conditions to be met. If they are, Fascist Italy will drop out of the war.:
1. All Catholics that are being deported from your country be sent to Fascist Italy
2. You stop all aggressive actions toward Fascist Italy."
Time will only tell if the barbarians to the north will agree to peace

OOC: I wasn't around today, so I'll just respond to the progress. Rumera and Merchant Guilds, I guess we'll create a new thread for war? Or shall we keep it in this thread, you decide.

IC:
"Splendid. Peace is here. However I have just received a message from the Merchant Guilds saying that they are declaring war on me. Funny that after so long an interlude from them we should here such news. And I was concerned about the Italian Alliance...

Rumera, because of your pact with our nation, the people of the Dubocratic Union graciously and formally request your assistance in the matter of our defense."

OOC: I'll start drawing a detailed map of my island, as I have moved to the Island of Gorlon recently. Just tell me when you guys are ready to start a war thread. During the weeksdays though, I'm only able to post at night, so it might be only a trickle a day.

Okay, I'm interested in this rp, but I don't wanna hafta read 11 pages to figure it out. Could someone plz summarize what happened after the mass executions of believers, and what the political climate of this situation is right now?

From the Prime Minister to the Merchant Guilds:

We shall not retract our statement about the Merchant Guilds' lack of respect for political freedom. You are a warmongering nation that will not stand the defense of our hardy people and the will and strength of our allies. Expect the war to come as a defeat to you. Good day.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Prime Minister waved over his bodyguard to get in touch with the War and Logistics Secretary, Lucas Sherman, to prepare for war and to begin civil defense procedures and conscription. "Also tell him to prepare the television stations for a broadcast I will make here from the conference."

"Il Duce still no reply."
"Patience, they will make a statement concerning us...."

"Gentlemen," Dictator Anderson said since the conference was still going on and no one left yet. "The Roman Republic is not backing down. Even though there is no killing going on. They are still going to attack. This sickens me. I would like to make a motion that we send our collective forces to Novaya Russia's aid. All in favor, say aye."

OOC: Yeah, diff thread is fine. (saves the clogging_)

Shall we keep the numbers smallish...?

So, it's Rumera, me and you? Anybody else who can RP? (Military)

occ: Yeah that's what it looks like, it'll be a slow thread as I can post only at certain times. I'll go ahead and set up a new one.

occ: okay, our little war can be linked in this new thread http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?p=8135907#post8135907

icc: I must regret that Rumera cannot come to Novaya Russia's aid currently as we are currently preparing for protection of the Dubocratic Union. We do condemn the Roman Republic's actions however.

The SOF soldiers keep moving on.
"Capt..I've spotted enemy soldiers."
"Roger..Silence your weapons."

Soldiers move stealthly towar the NR soldiers.
Soldiers fire at enemy soldiers
"Got him."
Men continue to sweep the city.

The Dubocratic Union formally requests the aid of Gurian, our neighbor in the Island of Gorlon region.

"Today my Italian brethren a descision has been made! Since our want of peace was ignored...WE SHALL GO TO WAAAAAAAAAR!!!"
"DUCE! DUCE! A ROMA! A ROMA!"
"Yes my brothers, an Italian alliance has been created! WE MARCH WITH THE ROMAN REPUBLIC! SEND OUT THE ZEPPELINS!"

A Small Airfield within Novaya-Russia

A light rain pelted the small, aluminum wings of a San Lucian JFV-330 prop plane as its tires touched the muddy soil of the airfield that covered the vast expanse of the area. On board, Mikhal Rolfenburger was rather annoyed by the rain that had plagued his flight here and the fact he had to ride in a plane that was about to fall apart, but he was at his objective and that all that mattered.

Rolfenburg was one of the many international field operatives that worked for the National Intelligence and Reconnaissance Bureau or NIRB in Kalzenstien, Lachenburg. For almost 40 years, NIRB was the supreme intelligence and counter-intelligence authority in Lachenburg, responsible for the safety of the state against Terrorists, Revolutionaries and other dangerous targets. But outside of Lachenburg’s borders, their prime mission was to fan the flames of rebellion; something Rolfenburg was now assigned to do.

After viewing the genocidal acts against Christians across the realm of Novaya-Russia, many leaders in Lachenburg were appalled and demanded for something to be done to quell this bout of rage and destruction. However, the situation soon became too sensitive for the typical response and members of Lachenburg went to NIRB for a different approach to this problem. What they got was a relatively straightforward answer.

The plan now was to start a rebellion within Novaya-Russia to cripple its Industry and Government institutions. Many there were most likely tired of the corrupt government that ran its establishments and seemed likely to want change and reform to occur. After several weeks of planning, NIRB managed to sneak 6 agents into the country using foraged San Lucian passports and some luck. Their only mission was to find a base to start the rebellion on and to begin recruiting members to the cause. By the time Rolfenburg had landed, several hundred farmers and laborers from across the North-Eastern countryside had pledged their support, with many more flocking to the agents wanting join as well. All Rolfenburg needed to do was to lead organize and start this rebellion. Of course, this task would be rather daunting, due to the sheer number of recruits filing in every day, but he had been trained for this type of occupation and was confident in his abilities to get the job done.

As he pulled his black duffle bag full of things out of the small aircraft, a beat-up black van entered the compound and silently waited for Rolfenburg to check-in with customs. Inside were members of the revolutionary faction and one of his fellow agents, Klaus Machter. After several minutes of waiting, Mikhal finally appeared from the gray customs building and slid into the van, taking a seat next to Klaus, who now gripped his hands on the black steering wheel and began to pull away from the airfield onto one of the many dusty roads that criss-crossed the landscape.

“So, what the current situation?” Rolfenburg casually said, breaking the awkward silence within the automobile.

“Currently, we’ve set up our headquarters on the Kardorsky plantation near the small village of Petrnov. Already, we’ve managed to recruit 2100 members and have just accepted 300 more today.”

“What are these folks like?”

“Most of them are of the typical peasant background, but we do have a couple of ex-military guys and even some foreign mercenaries.”

“Armaments?”

“As of the moment, we have a stock pile of various hunting rifles, both .308 and .30-6 caliber, AK-47’s, a whole bunch of pistols and even an RPG or two. Most of these weapons have been hidden in the various farmhouses around the town and are capable of arming at least 80% of our current force.”

“Opposition?”

“Due to the recent outbreak of hostilities, the local garrison located within the town is now filled to the brim with at least a company or more worth of soldiers. However, I’m sure that number will increase as time goes on.”

Just as the conversation continued, the black van pulled off the main road and made its ascent towards an old, run down barn and farmhouse. The buildings were painted an odd brownish shade, with large wooden planks sticking out of their exterior. The rows of windows stood shattered and even the roof shingles seemed to be in a state of collapse.

Pulling over to one side of a rotting cornfield, each member cautiously left the vehicle and entered the building, carefully watching for any unwanted activity. Inside laid modest furnishings, with an old wooden table standing in the center of the musky room, surrounded by several chairs and a small table on which the T.V. sat upon. Lying upon the table was an assortment of maps and papers, each covered in small text. Gazing at the various sheets of paper, Rolfenburg made some conclusions and began to formulate his own plans. Taking a seat on one of the wooden chairs, Rolfenburg began to speak to the assembled group of members:

“Alright guys. As of the moment we are lacking in three central things: Organization, Weapons and Training. If we are to succeed in our objectives, we must make sure that these vital requirements are satisfied. Of course, it will take a lot of time and a lot of mishaps to get this going, but once this rebellion is set loose, there will be nothing to stop it. As for weapons, we need far more weapons, especially assault rifles and sub-machineguns. Since we don’t want to attract government attention yet, we need to find outside sources to aid us the stockpiling of weapons and ammunition. Therefore, we need to setup a committee of people who have the capability and the connections to do that.”

Stepping up from his seat in the back, a large burly man of his middle years emerged from the group to put in his response:

“I think I can help ya with that mate. Names Henry Rucksburg and I’ve got me some buddies back home who got plenty o’ weapons for us to use. Most of em are the typical Russian-style AKs and such, but I think they’ll do just fine for the job.”

Blinking in surprise, Rolfenburg quickly formulated his response:

“Alright then, get a group of people and set up an office somewhere around here. Once you’re nice and settled, start making calls to your friends at home and make arrangements to start shipping weapons and ammunition to our position. We’re going to need at least 20,000 units with plenty of ammunition.”

“Got that. I’ll get on it as soon as possible.”

“Now that we’ve got that settled, we need to move on to discipline and organization. Without these two factors, the rebellion will quickly fall apart and well all end up dead. Since the majority of you are just peasants, were going to need quite a few officers and NCOs to train and prepare you for our attacks against the enemy. Now I have heard that we do have some ex-military in the ranks and we are going to need them as trainers, so I want someone to round them up and have them meet here on Tuesday. Once I’ve got everything sorted out with them, we can start training. Now you must understand that no one outside our circle can know about these activities, so we only meet at night or on special occasions. If any of you are caught, I hope you will maintain a vow of silence so this organization may continue. Now if you don’t mind, I have some planning to do.”

The dozen men that now stood within the small farmhouse now began to file out, each grumbling about something. By nightfall, the majorities of the organization had been notified by these new orders and were beginning to galvanize support in response to the new leadership. Soon the wheels of revolution would be turning and Novaya-Russia would be at its knees.

Zaitsev sighed and stood up.

"Without further ado, we are going to leave. If anything, I have no need to get captured by some sort of enemy that attacks your forsaken shores."

They left quietly, and outside came the roar of a Myasischev 55V as it took off.

As if to answer Gurian, the roar of Ratheian was heard as they passed overhead, cruising at Mach 1.5 They would intercept any enemy aircraft.

And better yet, Ratheia was preparing to, with Gurian assistance, to send in an invasion force.

TO: Gurian
FROM: President Zaitsev

Here's an encrypted message from onboard my jet.

We have already decided to launch a fleet to destroy RR forces and assist New Russia, but we require your aid.

SF soldiers finally enter the Capital under the darkness of nightfall.
"Our objective is to capture the leader."
"Snipers will tak cotrol of the rooftops and covering fire for extrat and jump of to the helicopter."
"Roger that, sir."

SEALs took the left side of the city. Deltas and AF SF the Center and Marine Force Recon took the right.

One of the STS, "Sir I've spotted the Palace."
"Good. Lets take it down.

Marine Force Recon soldiers and SEALs position themselves around building.

BUMP!!

The horns of the Scandinvans thundered and the army of his royal highness began to once agian to march against Novaya-Russia and their allies and the army had been strengthed by 6,000,000 troops 20,000 Paladin and Crusader tanks roughly even in number and 6000 Commanche and Hell-Fires and 2100 Chinooks and 1600 F-18s. The High Prince Valamiar with 20,000 Imperial Knights began to march to meet their allies armies.

OOC: Can I have a summary?

I am willing to conscript my entire nation as a mercenary army to fight for the highest bidder, the price starts at 80 billion salted peanuts. Think, who wants the military security only a 110 million armed penguins has to offer?

Ppenguin nation no way could you conscript an entire nation no way could an enite nation fight in a war who would defend your homeland and support the war effort and infact live in your country,

Ratheian aircraft promptly turned back, another war had to be fought.

3200 Scandinvan figthers to meet the Ratheian aircraft and at this time also Scandinvan ground forces began to take Novaya-Russian land.

Dictator Anderson was dismayed by the invasion, but Gurian at the moment had its own problems. So he wrote a letter.

Dear Invaders,

They stopped killing theists, for God's sake! What the hell are you doing bombing them and attacking them? You morons, it hurts them with absolutely no gain, plus it hurts you in terms of money and manpower. Just pull out.

Signed,
Dictator Anderson
Benevolent Dictator of Gurian

Gurian, My war doesn't hurt my nation you non-military bitch. I'm fight a war with Spec Forces. If I use my Army yes it will hurt me be Spec Forces are different.

The great armies of Scandinava countinue to march upon Novaya-Russia and already 40,000,000 Novaya-Russian civilians have been 'liberated'.

As the conquest of Npvaya-Russia contunied a colonial goverment was being set up and 8,000,000 Novaya-Russians had been deported to Scandinava.
