President Nellis picked up his phone that had been ringing for some time. This was a call from his ally Muktar:

"Hello. This President Nellis. Who am I speaking to?"

"Akan, Counciler of Muktar. From what I hear, you're caught between a rock and a hard place." Akan chuckled a moment, then continued. "We are willing to provide military aid against this invasion."

Nellis breathed a semi sigh of relieve and said:

"Good. This is very good news. Your assistance is welcomed with open arms. I am sure you know the situation. We are way outnumbered. What do you intend to deploy?"

Akan nodded. "We're launching 15 Carrier units from 6 provinces, making 90 in all. Also, we may be able to use this war as a field test for our new drop bombers. Instead of unloading explosions, they unload shock troops. We'll only be able to field a few initially to make sure they work, of course."

"To be completly honest with, I am uneasy about your testing of new weapons, but since I need the help I will except. How many do think would ne deployed in all? Oh and I will say this, I know of your nucleur arsenal and I would appreciate if you didn't use them."

Akan thought a moment. "Well, we're talking 90 Carrier teams, so from that we can expect 90 Aircraft Carriers, 270 Bombers, 450 Helicopters, 900 Gunboats, 360 Tanks, 3600 Militia, and 1800 Berserks. Add in the Berserks from the drop bombers, that would be about 1000. This will just be the first wave, thankfully. It should be able to keep them in a deadlock until we are able to mobilize our military in full."

Carrier Team:
1 Ravine Aircraft Carrier, which holds 3 Maul Bombers and 5 Frenzy Helicopters
2 Razor Gunboats escorting the Carrier
2 Infantry & Tank Naval Transports
8 Razor Gunboats divided between Transports

Each Helicopter has 4 Berserk Drop Troopers
Each Transport has 2 Savage Heavy Tanks, and 2 squads of 10 Trained Militia

"Thank you very much for your support. Muktar has and will be one of Nellisland's greatest allies."

Akan nodded. "That goes without saying. Now, unless there are other matters to discuss, I need to check in with Gux about the mobilization."

"Bye...and thanks again."

Nellis hung up he phone and for the first time in a while, smiled.
