Accra, Ghana

With Ghana now an RB territory, the tiny West African nation's military was now in the hands of RB. President Kufuor immediately signed a new military conscription law, drafting over two million Ghanian men into the military. After more than a year of training, the Ghanians were equipped with modern weapons and provided with high-tech vehicles. There were over 100,000 RB soldiers, 100,000 Thai, 100,000 Filipinos, and more than 25,000 Nicaraguans, making the grand total more than 2,325,000 men, all of whom would that very day launch an incursion into Cote d'Ivoire, soon to be RB's newest domain.

The Ghanian soldiers, with their new RB weapons and vehicles, crossed the border into Cote d'Ivoire, while RB warplanes invaded from the sky, and the Nicaraguans, Thais, and Filipinos invaded via the sea, quickly infiltrating the nation and blockading the west border with Liberia (RB's next target). Soon, the Cote d'Ivoireans would have nowhere to go but north; unbeknownst to them, the RB planes were already prepared to bomb the northern border. The Cote d'Ivoireans were trapped.

OOC: How did your military transports get past the blockade?

(OOC: A few divisions were in Nicaragua, which I took over before the war began.)

The rotten odor of death permeated the air, as searing flames devoured men, women, and children (the Cote d'Ivoireans even recruited kids) whole. The wretched, rank, pungeant stink of burning flesh was so overwhelming, so nauseating, it incapacitated many of the Cote d'Ivoireans, making them easy prey for the streams of bullets darting toward them. Blood sprayed everywhere, as screams of fear echoed in the night, and chaos pervaded everything.

(OOC: This is IC a few months in the future, after the occupation.)

Severed, limbs, napalm-scorched bodies, bullet-ridden corpses, dying soldiers wallowing in their own blood, women weeping over their dead children, battle-scarred buildings, and a decimated landscape, all awaited the arriving invaders, who shot all surviving soldiers on sight, unless they were children (in which case, they were tranquilized). Tanks blasted buildings to rubble, as machine-gun fire mopped up anyone who put up resistance. Jets hovered through the sky, bombarding every city in the country, as well as the countryside, where rebels ran around screaming hysterically.

Battleships fired away indiscriminately, disintegrating the diminutive, pathetic forces that tried to 'defend' the shoreline. Millions of RB-coalition troops captured policemen and soldiers, and forcibly integrated them into the coalition, which rapidly grew in size. Within days, millions of Cote d'Ivoireans were dead, thousands were wounded, and more than ten thousand coalition troops were dead. Cote d'Ivoire was now RB's.

OOC: *sigh*

There occupation hasn't even ended and you're committing virtual genocide again. Can you leave the conquests at this, RB? Or at least not kill millions of civilians in the process of conquering things.

(OOC: I'm going to:

A)Conquer the country;

B)Send shiploads of food, clothing, medicine, etc.;

C)Build quality houses for all the people;

D)Set up hundreds of factories to provide jobs for everyone;

E)Integrate the Cote d'Ivoireans into my armed forces;

F)Make Cote d'Ivoire a democratic, self-governing territory of RB)

OOC: This sort of thing gets you reinvaded, and I dont really want to do that ICly or OOCly.

(OOC: Most of those were military deaths, or unintended casualties. And don't forget, the Cote d'Ivoireans used children and women to fight us.)

[OOC: You are going too far RB. When the current occupation ends there is going to be an imposed Constitution that you must follow. The new Constitution expressly forbids you this sort of action.

Once we finally announce the new Constitution and Laws, you'll be free to RP within the limits that are established. Of course, eventually those limits my disappear but that would only happen from more RPing.]
