OOC: All done in support of NATO operations near Gibraltar.

IC:

[Operation: RAPIER BLADE]

Imperial Air Force Base No. 51
0500 hrs LIMA (local time)

Although Tyrandis had remained silent during the initial invasion and subsequent conquest of Granzi Morocco, Executor Davidson would never let such a crime against a valued ally go unpunished. While the fight continued for control of the vital Gibraltar, a quiet mobilization of the Tyrandisan military machine had taken place, right under the noses of the imperialists. Best of all, because the idiots in control of DB had deployed their entire military to the war in the Mediterreanean sea, the attack would be unopposed, at most several irregular units attempting to throw back the beast that was the Armed Service of the Militant Imperium. Satellite intel confirmed this, and now Duke Barol would be faced with the complete and utter conquest of their undefended territories.

The massive airfield erected at the very southern tip of Tyrandis's only African colony was abuzz with activity in the cold morning, as a frantic ground crew completed final preparations for the coming assault. TSA-12 Kestrel Multi-mission Strike Fighters along with some of the older but still capable TSF-28D Seraph Air Superiority Fighters roared off the runways, loaded to the brim with ordinance, the finest that money could buy. The aerial formation was composed of two air wings, one of Kestrels, the other of Seraphs. This meant that roughly 240 aircraft were headed to attack the barbarians of Botswana, Duke Barol. The Seraphs' huge TC-250 engines whined to life and launched them into the wild blue yonder at a height of some 45,000 feet above sea level, while the Kestrels kept low, below 250 feet. Following these fighters were a pair of E-767D airborne RADARs, to better coordinate the attack.

The Kestrels were armed with one pair of AGM-88X High-speed Anti-Radiation Missiles, as well as six AGM-521 airlaunched cruise missiles. For self-protection , one pair of TSM-1 Falcon short-range dogfight missiles was carried. The TSF-28Ds wielded four TSM-2 Hawk XMRAAMs and two TSM-3 Eagle XBVRAAMs. Both of the fighter classes were equipped with a Divine Thunder 27mm cannon, one of the best A2A gun systems in the world. In accordance to standard doctrine, the initial strike would kill any and all communications, RADAR, and Air Defense positions hard, thus leaving the victim open for an ensuing ground attack. TNIA intelligence had found a wealth of information, thanks to the RAVEN SATINT network, pertaining to the aforementioned targets, and the live feed was duly transmitted to the strike force.

When the TSA-12 attack units were within one hundred kilometres of their target, one pair of AGM-88X High-speed Anti-Radiation Missiles were launched at each and every RADAR and communications section. The payload was over fourteen thousand fragments of DU, more than enough to shred the delicate waveguides and antennas their victims depended on. Although Duke Barolian defenders would certainly try to turn off the things before the missiles hit, the HARMs had a secondary GPS guidance system, meaning that their efforts would be in vain; simply put, there was no escape. As for their other targets, the airfields and SAM batteries, a volley of AGM-521 Tactical Land-Attack-Missiles were fired at each of these. One in five of the missiles had a nasty side effect; they were armed with Hafnium-178m2 warheads. As soon as the fuze ignited, an X-ray trigger kicked in, bombarding the volatile hafnium isomer that was the core of the missile. This liberated huge amounts of energy in the form of gamma radiation from the metal, which would expand in a sphere of death from the source. It would burn through any defense Duke Barol had, including hardened bunkers to irradiate the fleshy human personnel inside, resulting in instant death.

In the skies above, the TSF-28D Seraphs and E-767Ds advanced at a relatively slower pace, to avoid any surface missile fire. The enormous bi-static RADAR mounted on the AWACS would filter out any incoming aircraft at least five hundred kilometers away, stealth or not, and relay the activity to the Seraph pilots, although that wasn't expected since everything indicated that Duke Barol had no aerial assets in her territories.

The die had been cast, and the criminal regime of Duke Barol would receive its just desserts in time, a painful death at the hands of the Tyrandisan military...

Official Statement from the Office of the Executor

Greetings, inhabitants of Duke Barol.

The unprovoked aggression against the sovereign nation of Granzi by the government of your country has forced our hand in the recent airstrike against your country. Although your leaders claim to be "liberating" Morocco, this statement is a lie. Granzi was no oppressive dictatorship, but one of the greatest democracies in the world. Her citizens were prosperous and joyous, basking in the warmth of political and civil liberty.

Now let us consider their situation under the inept occupation. The people of Morocco live in desperate poverty, their lives ruined by their subjugation. Once one of the greatest people of the world, they now have been crushed under the iron fist of dictatorship and rule by decree.

As Granzi has been a loyal ally to the Imperium through our membership to the New Alliance Treaty Organization, Tyrandis is bound by honor and treaty to support her fallen friend in this time of turmoil. Our armed services are legion, and are prepared to wage unending war against you, for the sake of freeing Granzi from the clutches of foreign rule. You have seen only a taste of our wrath in that one strike, for the forces involved are merely a fraction of what we will commit. Because you have deployed your entire armies to strike abroad, your homeland is undefended; we shall bring all the horrors of war to your own soil, should our demands be unsatisfied.

However, I have no wish to see bloodshed and violence erupt, for Tyrandis is at heart, a peaceful nation. Our motto states it best: We demand peace by force of arms. Thus, if you were to withdraw quietly from Granzi territory, our quarrels would end.

Duke Barol, you have a choice: Either remove yourselves from occupied Morocco, or see your homelands destroyed at the hands of the Armed Services of the Imperium.

Choose wisely, for I expect an answer within twenty four hours.

You should've been more careful when you chose Granzi for landgrab. If it were ANY other player (excluding IDF), I would've just sat back and shrugged, but since you attacked a NATO member, you've forced my response. If you want to keep it, you'll have to fight for it...

And you still haven't posted losses from my airstrike.

Nürnberg, Germany...

Chancellor Kahn had received word of the nuclear strike on Duke Barol within minutes after it occured. The Chancellor had called the military command staff into an emergency conference in Nürnberg to discuss a plan of action concerning the slaughter of the innocent citizens of Duke Barol, and Germania's official stance.

Chancellor Kahn: "Generaloberst Reinke, before I ask any questions, activate the nuclear missile silos immediately and increase military presence along the borders by 50%."

Reinke quickly lifted up a phone and began to dial...

Chancellor Kahn: "General Kuhl, what are the estimated losses in Duke Barol?"

General Kuhl: "Herr Reichschancellor, our initial estimates place civilian losses well in the hundreds of thousands. Damage to cities has been set in billions of dollars of damage done."

Chancellor Kahn: "So they nuked civilians instead of the military?"

General Kuhl: "Jawohl, Herr Reichschancellor."

Chancellor Kahn: "Interesting. Mobilize the 4th, 7th, and 9th Panzer Divisions to Toulouse, France. Prepare the 11th and 15th Lüftwaffe Divisions in Limogues. Activate the 2nd Wolfpack Attack Submarine Division and 6th Carrier Battle Fleet. Let Tyrandis know that we're watching.

Make no strike as of now, but let their satellites see what's happening. Release the following statement to Executor Davidson:.."

To: Executor Davidson
From: Reichschancellor Kahn
Subject: Nuclear strike on Duke Barol

"Germania is disgusted by these actions on the civilian sector of Duke Barol. This is a clear sign to The Teutonic Order that Tyrandis not only holds absolutely no respect for the lives of the innocent, but no respect for the rest of the world.

A nuclear strike is a terrible means of last defense, not a weapon for standard retaliatory attack. The fact that you have used these weapons in such a way is proof that you are in no position to possess them.

The effects on the environment, the economy of Duke Barol, and the future population of the world will always be in question because of this action of cowardice and weakness.

Germania will be sending the 9th Medic Division to the affected area of Duke Barol, which will be protected and supported by the 1st Fallschirmjäger Division. As Germanian will soon be in the lands of Duke Barol to assist the suffering of the population, and to establish a large medical area, the lives of Germanian soldiers will be at risk. If there are any further actions commenced against the nation of Duke Barol by Tyrandis in an area where Germanian personnel are stationed, it will be seen as a pure act of war and will be responded to appropriately."

OOC: Where was the strike against DB launched?

OOC: Where was the strike against DB launched?

OOC: Dude, I didn't even hit his civilian facilities. I simply attacked his air defense net with an overwhelming strike, preparing for an airborne infantry attack. Furthermore, Hf-178m2 isn't technically a nuclear weapon since the effect doesn't generate new compounds in the reaction, it simply causes mass emission of gamma radiation (heat). Unless your accusations of attacking civilians are propaganda, I ask that you edit your post accordingly.

OOC: I hope you two nuke each other off the face of the map for turning it into a I have n00ks and I have ally's and you will all die with my uber-nuke fest!

OOC: Well it was a bit confusing. I'll edit accordingly when I get the chance. Germanian Divisions are still being placed in DB.

But like Layarteb said...

Reporter- "We now go live to a press conference with the Panthean Press Minister Warren Hahns

Warren Hahns-


Good Morning

Just in the last few days Tyrandis as launch an unjustied war against are African allies, the Duke of Barol. They plan to launch a major attack on the Duke’s territory that will led to the death of innocent civilians not military personal. The President and all of the Providences of the Panthean Confederacy has condoned this act of violence against the people of Duke Barol. This is yet another example of imperialist bullying on the smaller nations of the world. All nations of the world should move quickly to impose sanctions and trade embargos on Tyrandis immediately .

Furthermore we will encourage our allies to ask for aid from the Roman Confederacy. As this is in no doubt an attack on a sovereign nation. If Tyrandis succeeds in their mission we will see Roman Territory in the hands of barbarians: non-native rule.

That is all, no questions please

Imperial Communique to Tyrandis

The Empire of Cotland condemns this act of agression and murder preformed by Tyrandis, and will place all forces available in to protect the nation of Duke Barol, as required of us in the Charter of the Roman Confederacy, article 7 a. This criminal act will not go unpunished. Withdraw all forces from Barolian territory immediately, or face war. You have twelve hours to reply to this communique. If no answer is recieved, we shall consider it a decline of our demands and war shall be declared.

Imperial Government of Cotland
http://www.nationstates.net/images/flags/uploads/cotland.jpg

Statement from the Department of War

Cotland would be well advised to note the actions of Duke Barol which instigated our attack in the first place. Without a stated declaration of war, they struck a NATO ally of the Imperium hoping to seize what is rightfully Granzi territory. Our retaliatory assault was done only to satisfy our own obligation of mutual defense for Granzi. Furthermore, no Tyrandisan military units have set foot on Barolian soil, though this will change should the Duke fail to remove his occupation of Morocco within our deadline.

We take great offense at your accusations of aggression, for the Militant Imperium has committed no hostilities against the Roman Confederacy before. The only reason we have operations against Duke Barol is due to their blatant imperialism in the Mediterranean. Tyrandis cannot simply stand back and let her friends fall to the expansionary ambitions of madmen, and we will not change our stance under any circumstances.

The clock is ticking; a full-fledged invasion of Duke Barol will begin unless the occupation of Morocco ends.

Imperial response

I don't believe you have understood it correctly sir. Any attack on a member of the Roman Confederacy is considered an attack on all members of said Confederacy. Therefore Cotland is responding to this attack.

As we speak, Cottish forces are en route to Algeria to help defend our ally in his time of need. We also hope that this will be resolved peacefully, but prepare for the worst. We do not understand the logic behind your actions. Why defend an ally which is long gone? Granzi will most likely not return. Therefore your actions are completely beyond reason.

If Tyrandisian forces attempt to invade, they will have to face Cottish forces first. Think wisely. Do not plunge your nation into the dark abyss that is defeat. Cancel the invasion and retain your land.

Regards,
Imperial Government of Cotland

DB, explain how you managed to sneak those submarines all the way into Australia/NZ, past the SOSUS lines, past the ASW perimeters, not to mention acquire nuclear weapons when you're not even 500 million. Otherwise I refuse to answer.

third, your sdi cannot nockdown every missile thrown at you
o yea, keep in mind, you still dont know exact locations of my boomers.

Also, the standard for owning WMD is a population of at least half a billion, ask anyone around and they will confirm it.

Sure, SDI can't destroy everything, but it can get pretty damn close. If you didn't notice yet, I'm over twenty times your size, have a 30 bn defense budget, not to mention the following defenses...

5 different long-range systems, 2 satellite-based interceptors, 8 medium range defenses, and several thousand ABM batteries sitting around. Each of those systems has a roughly 80% effectiveness or so, meaning that at most one of your ICBMs will get through, and lobbing nuclear weapons at me will result in your total immolation.

edit: BTW, those boomers are easy to find as hell... H2O Pumpjets tend to make a shitload of noise since the mechanical pumps generate sound.

"As requested by the nation of Tyrandis, a Ninjan peacekeeping unit has begun landing in Morocco. A total of six divisions (1 Armoured, 2 Mechanized, 3 Infantry, 1 Marine) have begun securing the borders and establishing anti-aircraft systems throughout the nation to deter any future invaders. The peace-keeping unit is only intended to safe guard the nation. The unit will by no means take over the country, nor will they establish a ruler.

An engineer division has been sent to Morocco to establish a small naval base, and a small aircraft base to increase the defensive capability of Morocco. At the most the air field will acomodate 96 aircraft of various roles, and the naval base will accomodate around 40 to 45 vessels at the most. The time need to complete these projects is estimated at 6 months."

No. He's attacking him because he messed with an ally, period.

If this was a NATO-sponsored operation, you would see the entire alliance move to neutralize Duke Barol. This is most definately not the case. The philosophy Tyrandis is following here is both simple and sound: "Fuck with my allies, I'll fuck with you - and you'll regret it". The fact that the ally in question happens to be a NATO ally has no bearing on the fact that DB messed with a nationstate dear to Tyrandis.
