Wu Shin-kua, President of the Republic of Singapore, gazed from his observation point across the Johor straits, to Malaysia. Memories were fresh in his mind when he commanded an army, under the old Federal Republic. So much blood was spent, wasted, in propping up that doomed regime, which had crossed the ties of human decency and invoked the wrath of the whole world. In blood was the Federal Republic vanquished; in blood, now, it would be reborn anew. Wu had waited long for this moment, and now, all that lay between him and conquest was a few meters of water and some Malay conscripts.

In total secrecy, an entire army had been assembled. The Army, Navy, and Air Force of Singapore had been marshalled for this very purpose: to once and for all reclaim Bonstock's place in the Modern World. The guns aimed across the straits, and the troops readied themselves in assault boats to cross the water.

His troops were assembled for review. Each and every man stood tall, carried himself with great pride, like their fathers had years back in the service of the Federal Republic. He carried his rifle in his hand, and his helmet was on his head, ready for battle at any moment. All had the sense that it was time: time to right the wrongs that had doomed the Federal Republic. Time to make a new union, one stronger then all the rest, respected and feared throughout the world.

Thus Wu stood before them, and adressed them: "Soldiers, you stand before me today as once I stood before our great forebearers. Remember our fathers, their vision of a world of union and harmony. The wrath of the world brought them down, and what blood did they shed in your defense! But does anyone ever say that those brave men died in vain?"

His soldiers replied in unision, loud and commanding, "No!"

And thus Wu continued. "Your forefathers bled and suffered, but they accepted defeat, knowing that someday, their sons would come forth to avenge them, and reclaim what was lost. You, my soldiers, are those sons. The time is now to reclaim the lost Republic! Now go- go across the straits, into the air, and through the deepest of jungles. Carry yourself through the most determined enemy resistance, but know that you can overcome all obstacles: remember, you are Bonstocknians! Nothing can stand between you and your prize! Oh, children of the fatherland, the day of Glory has arrived!"

The soldiers again replied in unison: "Hurrah!"

The clock struck midnight. Wu leaned over to his aide. "Give the order," he whispered. "Unleash the dogs of war."

Straits of Malacca
2400 Hours

"140 Squadron, 143 Squadron, 145 Squadron, this is Tengah base. All clear to engage the enemy."

"Roger. Vectoring to target zone."

"Hakeye patrol is picking up two incoming fighters. MiG 29, from Kuantan AB, we suspect."

"Roger, radars picking them up. Permission to engage?"

"You are free to engage."

"Roger that." Two of the Bonstocknian planes, both F-22s, locked their AIM-120s onto the incoming MiGs, and fired.

Meanwhile, the entire strike package- 48 F-22s, and 4 B-2s- zeroed in on the target area: Kuala Lumpur. This war would open up with a bang.

First in were the F-22s. Dividing into squadrons of 24, and flights of 4, they went after individual targets. Sattelites orbitting overhead pinpointed any air-defense artillery and SAM sites, along with the two nearest airbases: KL Subang and KL Sungai Besi. Overhead the Raptors flew, but low, to avoid radar detection. Their JDAM bombs were locked on targets, namely air defense guns, radars, and the airbases. They flew over, and dropped their bombs.

Then came the wave of B-2s. Their mission was to knock down every facet of the government of Singapore. Targetted were the parliament houses, the ministries, command centers, TV and radio stations, powerplants, railroad yards, munitions factories: anything that could possibly be of military value was targetted by sattelites. Each of the planes flew over, and dropped their load of 16 JDAMs a piece.

Another wave of 24 F-22s flew over the Malay penninsula. Flights of four each targetted Alor Setar, Butterworth, Lumut, Kuantan, and Keluang, while another one struck the port facilities in Kuala Lumpur with JDAMs, making sure that there would be no seaborne opposition to Bonstock's march up the penninsula.

Sembawang Airbase
2400 Hours

With the words of General Wu still ringing in their ears, soldiers began to warm their helicopters up. A dozen or so Hueys, eight Apaches, and a few CH-47 Chinooks were ready on the runway. On board loaded the task force of soldiers, whose task was to overwhelm the Malaysian Army checkpoint at the end of the bridge, and a barracks just next door. Thus, the causeway that linked the two sides of the Johor strait would be liberated, and the armored spearheads of the 1st Bonstocknian Armored Division would have a nice bridgehead for its march up the penninsula.

First to take off were the Apaches. Each took to the skies, and began flying towards the target at the end of the bridge.

A voice came over on the radio from the lead chopper. "All units commence PSYOPS recording... Shall we dance!"

Each of the Apaches began playing the music in unison: Wagner, of course, was the choice. The Bonstocknians rode in to battle to the Ride of the Valkyries.

ooc: music: http://www.carolinaclassical.com/articles/wagnervalkyries.html

The choppers's roters beat in tune as the crew checked their weapons. Within a minute, they were in place. As they flew, their missiles targetted the barracks and the checkpoint, and fired, reducing the startled Malaysians to rubble.

And then the Hueys and the Chinooks came. Within thirty seconds, an assault company of 150 men was on the ground. Any Malaysian border guards not already dead were taken prisoner.

Thus, the bridge was secured. The lead tanks of the 1st Armored Division rolled over, in a column of three hundred Leopard IIS tanks. They rolled on, infantry marching along side, like a dagger thrusting up the penninsula to Kuala Lumpur. Infantry units fanned out into the jungle, to mop up any resistance still taking place. Bonstock's prize would not be denied. The blood of the forebearers would be avenged.

A message was sent out to Malaysians:

"We are soldiers of the Federal Republic, sent to liberate your homeland from the oppressive Neo-Suunist puppets that have dominated your country. We come not as invaders, but as liberators, set to reclaim the place of the Federal Republic. The die has been cast, and we will prevail. You are left with one choice. Either you will join us and gloriously fight for the redemption of the Federal Republic, or you will die defending a corrupt regime that is already dead."

OOC:

Mainly a TAG, but a question:

a) Singapore could still afford a GPS and maintain such an advanced air force after losing it's empire?

Also, the Neo-Sunnist regime has already been liberated. Ask Mariamaia (or Dai Nippon Koku) for more details.

IC:

Submarine commanders of the ECN are made aware of the news.

OOC: We better get the AMW's founder(s) on this one! What's the legality of attacking NPCs?

IC:

Gen. Lim Chiang Wei rubbed his fingers across his face, if he doesn't shave for one more day, he'll look like an admiral. Looks like the old nemesis Bonstock has a new man at its helm. The fortifications, now dubbed the 'Lim Line' is not yet complete. His superiors have doubts to whether there will be an invasion through Burma, Lim himself cannot be certain.

Following Chinese doctrine of "assumption is the mother of all f*ckups", Lim has never underestimated the enemy. Just as Op. Nightlife had a guaranteed 4:1 numerical superiority at least.

With Wu's sights fixed on Malaysia and Indonesia, Burma's not far off. Lim shunned the idea of aiding Burmese defense, as too much had been invested in the current border, looks like it will be hours before his superiors make another decision, looks like it's still sandbags and pouring concrete for now.

The thought of Wagner's Ride of the Valkeries, made Lim smile. So much for their failed warrior spirit. For now, Smetana's The Moldau (http://jnjmuse.cnei.or.kr/musicbox_2/my_fatherland_2_die_moldau.mp3) is playing from that small radio in his tent.

OOC: Bonsy, you old f*ggot! Looks like not one bit has changed despite having a predominantly Chinese race as people. Don't worry, we'll show you how to kick ass the Chinese way. Any volunteers? I see on hand up and it's from all the way in the Malaccas. Looks like Adolphus had a name change to Wu.

[OOC: Attacks on NPCs are legal (France/Spain/Roycelandia have attacked or pressured NPCs into annexation). As for Kalla's IRI part of Indonesia, (Borneo, Celebes, Moluccas, Aceh), Hudecia left saying that the area was pretty much open for reclaiming. I think we can assume that, perhaps, the ethnic tensions in the IRI coupled with instances of extremist Islamic law crashed the economy, and once you've overcome their security forces (which used several squadrons of F-16s and Harriers, but had little in the way of heavy armour or naval assets), the people will be far less resistant to reconquest as the FRB days will look more and more attractive during economic downturn.

IC:

In Sujava, the Singaporean invasion of Malaysia came as realization of a fear, if not as a surprise. It had been hard to picture the former capital remaining as a small bastion of its former self, especially with the economic troubles sweeping the rest of Indonesia, and the loss of Marimaian backing by the Malaysian throne. The Sujavans were uncertain as to how far Singapore would go in its quest to re-establish the FRB, but even if they had no designs upon Sujava itself, the danger of the French in the east could also not be discounted.

Across the nation, shore defences were reinforced, while Viggens and Dagger FAC-Ms were readied to intercept encroachments from east or west. In towns and villages, militias were asked to be ready and watchful in case of an attack. Sujava's constitution, and overall popular sentiment, were, however, pacifist: They would not project themselves out to counter assaults on the surrounding territories, be they French or Bonstockian.

ooc: someone could RP resistance if they'd like. I personally don't have much numbers on their army, but I'll try RPing assurate resistance.

ic:

A few miles north of the Johor Straits

The lead tanks rumbled forward, for now unopposed. The road looked clear, but then, in a clearing in the jungle, there was something there.

A tank commander looked at the objects through his binoculars. "My god," he exclaimed, "They've got god damn tanks blocking the road."

"What tanks?" yelled the gunner below.

"They look like T-72s, probably some variant, at least a dozen."

"Permission to fire?"

"Fire at will."

The column halted, but the road was too narrow and the sides too covered by jungle for the tanks to deploy in combat formation. Meanwhile, up ahead, a dozen enemies were deployed in an old plantation, perfectly able to fight. Still, their guns were out of range.

"All tanks halt at once," was the order given by the division CO. He got on the radio again. "This is 1st AD requesting air support. We've got a dozen MBTs at these coordinates."

Suddenly, from two sides, unguided rockets began landing about the stopped column of tanks. The lead commander looked at the nearby jungle. He whispered, "Oh, you've got to be sh*tting me."

The Division CO got on the radio. "All tanks fall back to defensive positions."

Suddenly, a dozen tanks behind the lead tank, one of the mighty Leopard IIs was hit by a rocket, and destroyed. The lead commander got on. "All tanks behind the destroyed one fall back. We're going forward."

A death ride at best, riding like that straight into the jaws of the Malaysian tanks, but what else could the Bonstocknians do? Thus, at full speed, a dozen tanks charged forwards, towards the Malaysians. They fired their 120mm guns at them, and finally were able to get out of the jungle, and deploy in a line to engage the Malaysians.

Thus, the tanks began exchanging fire. Four Bonstocknian tanks were knocked out, but the Malaysians began to scatter. The lead commander breathed a sigh of relief. Overhead, a few F-22s appeared, and began dropping JDAMs on the rocket launchers in the jungle. But the Bonstocknians would have to retreat; such a position could not be held with but eight operational tanks. Engineers came up to recover the knocked out tanks, and the Bonstocknians fell back to a new position to regain strength.

Meanwhile, 9 MBTs and 13 CV-90s began charging ahead, a nice recon force to make sure there would be no more ambushes in the path of the advance. Trucks began making their way up the river, with supplies and replacements for the 1st Armored Division.

The small recon force moved up towards the old route, where Bonstock had been first ambushed. They found a bridge there was out, obviously the work of the Malaysians, who wanted to buy as much time as possible. Engineers arrived two hours later, and set up a bridge across. Still, every delay was bad, as it gave the Malaysians time to reinforce.

And reinforce they did. The cavalry squadron got to the old plantation, and found itself running headlong into an entire Malaysian division.

Perfect, of course. The Bonstocknians aligned themselves for a fight, but knew it would not be won without heavy air support. But it was right on call.

The four B-2s, the only ones to Singapore's name, flew over. Each of them began carpet bombing the Malaysians below, decimating the whole plantation and wrecking the division. Then, 8 AH-64 Apaches flew in low to finish the job. The Malaysians scattered, and the recon troops took possession of the field. The rest of the division got underway, and crossed over to the new position.

Of course, crafty as the Malaysians were, they had assembled what little of their Air Force the Bonstocknians hadn't destroyed, and sent it to destroy the bridge over the Johor straits. If that bridge were destroyed, Singapore would be unable to supply its troops. As 8 MiG 29s flew over to destroy it, 24 F-22s flew to intercept it.

In the largest aerial battle of the war thus far, four F-22s were knocked out, a terrible loss considering the price tag of those planes. But the Bonstocknians scattered the raid, and the bridge remained intact. The advance would continue.

In total, since the start of the invasion, about 50 Bonstocknians had been killed, and roughly 100 wounded. The march continued, and soon the Bonstocknians would be able to see the glittering lights of the Petronas towers.

Bonstocknian intelligence agents figured out that the Malaysian division had fled to the town of Keluang, where it was currently fortifying for a defense. Of course, the orders of the 1st Armored Division were to go straight for Kuala Lumpur. An infantry brigade, the 1st of the 1st Infantry Division, was brought up, to defend the road from Keluang to the 1st AD's supply lines, digging into jungle positions. Thus, that Malaysian division would be isolated, and unable to participate in the final battles.

But Bonstocknian intelligence had also pinpointed the three remaining Malay Divisions. Two were in Kuala Lumpur, and one was on the road towards it, in a town called Melaka, with a brigade in Muar.

General Wu gave orders for the 1st AD. It was to bypass Muar and Melaka, going on backroads to isolate the two from Kuala Lumpur. Then, with the 2nd Infantry Division coming from the south, they would eliminate Malaysian resistance in those two towns.

That, of course, was easier said then done. The roads of choice had been fortified with machine guns and anti-tank obstacles. Worse, air support would be piecemeal. The Bonstocknian pilots needed a rest.

Four F-22s did fly over, and dropped JDAMs on the lines, but it would be up to the recon force to see just what resistance there would be. The nine Leopard IIs and 13 CV-90s ran up, straight into the Malay defenses. A minefield was soon found on the road, and two Bonstocknian tanks were knocked out. The others held their ground as an entire Malaysian battalion attacked.

The CV-90s fired their 40mm chain guns and the Leopard IIs, with 120mm high-explosive rounds, fired at the oncoming Malaysians. Still, 4 CV-90s and 3 Leopard IIs were knocked out by Malaysian soldiers with anti-tank missiles. The recon troops called for reinforcement.

The main force of 300 tanks began arriving on scene, and quickly scattered the Malaysian infantry. The forces continued on, to sieze the road between Kuala Lumpur and Meleka. They quickly found a Malaysian brigade just in the area they were to take, in an old rubber plantation along the road.

With air support unavaliable and a jungle crossroads to contend with, the Bonstocknian tanks deployed in three brigades, each with 100 tanks. One brigade ran directly into the center, taking on the Malaysians. The others surrounded the Malaysians from their flanks. With the Malaysians focused on one of the Bonstocknian brigades, the other two closed the noose, and slammed right into the flanks. The Malaysian brigade was all but wiped out, and any remaining troops retreated into Meleka. The Bonstocknians had lost 12 tanks, and about 50 men. Artillery was brought up, and began pounding away at the Malaysian defenses of Meleka and Muar. But this would be no rest for the Bonstocknians; the Malaysians answered with 105mm howitzers, and the Bonstocknians of the 1st Armored Division and 2nd Infantry Division dug in to escape bombardment.

OOC:

Right, I did some digging. Turns out that Malaysia built up an armed forces of 100,000 with Marimaian help (I never noticed before that the Marimaian puppets both had exactly the same army sizes; oh well). Malaysia is also an Islamic democracy, which heavily favours the Malays in terms of electoral law and business policy in an attempt to shift the nation's wealth away from Chinese and Indian business moguls (so quite a lot like RL Malaysia).

They also established a strong independant streak, as they were investigating their monarch over suspicions of embezzlement when he fled to Peru with his NeoSuunist buddies. At that point I stopped RPing with them, so what happened from then on is open to debate. It's certain that they suffered from the same economic downturn as Marimaia, but I think their democracy would have survived it.

The Popular Congress is more than a little distressed at current developments in the former FRB, but isn't really in a position to do anything about the reconquest of Malaysia on such short notice. The surface flotilla positioned in the Bay of Bengal starts to move east, a force that includes the Viraat and its compliment of 20 Sea Harriers, five Sea Kings, and six Alouette IIIs.

The Sujavan government is informed that three Viggen squadrons, one SAa. 6 squadron, two Jaguar squadrons, and up to 40,000 troops could be dispatched to guard against Bonstockian imperialism efforts in Sumatra and Java fairly quickly, along with the bulk of the HN's surface flotilla.

ooc: if you'd like, one of you could RP a resistance movement. This blitzkrieg could still be blunted.

ic:

The Bonstocknians had now surrounded Meleka, and the bombardment had shattered much resistance. It was now high noon; the Bonstocknians had travelled far. If Meleka would fall swiftly, much benefit would be done.

The four B-2s flew overhead, and dropped JDAMs on the Malaysian artillery, supply dumps, and command centers around Meleka and Muar. Two minutes later, the assault began in earnest. The bombardment was lifted as the 1st Armored Division came from the north, and the 2nd Infantry Division with 15,000 men entered from the south. House-to-house fighting ensued, but with total Bonstocknian air supremacy, most of it was short lived. With about 20 dead and many more wounded, the Bonstocknians gained hold of Meleka and Muar. The 1st Armored Division was within striking distance of Kuala Lumpur, having travelled nearly 120 miles within twelve hours.

But now it was time for a quick rest. A whole supply convoy came up, with hundreds of trucks escorted by armed Humvees, to refuel, rearm, and reinforce the Bonstocknians, and transport back a large number of wounded men to Singaporian hospitals, with help from Huey choppers. Maintenance personnel repaired damaged tanks, and made them ready for the final assault. The convoy would take at least two hours to arrive, and more hours would be needed for the repairs to take place. It was figured that the advance would continue at nightfall.

Isolated pockets of Malaysian resistance fired on the supply convoy as it made its way to Meleka, but were thrown back by the HMMWVs and armed gun trucks. The resupply effort proceeded smoothly.

OCC: I think we actually may have a Malaysia...perhaps that's Thailand, though. I'll have to check back.

As for me RPing resistance, well, mabye, but I will have to check up on our membership rosta.

OCC: I think we actually may have a Malaysia...perhaps that's Thailand, though. I'll have to check back.

ooc: Last time I checked, there was no Malaysia. If there is, he or she can post something and I'd probably take back all but my first post, and start over from there. If not, I'll just continue with this.

OOC: Nah, we don't have a Malaysia at present.

Why don't you RP the resistance, DNK?

The 1st Armored Division was ready for its final drive. Feuled and armed, it had all it needed to do the job. As twilight began to take hold of the Malay penninsula, the Leopards rode out, towards their target.

Their first objective was to sieze Kuala Lumpur International Airport, just a few miles from the capital. It was known that a whole Malay division was holding it, so this would be a tough fight at best.

Thus, silently and swiftly, the tanks rolled up the road to the airport. They ran into a few Malay machine gun nests, which were quickly taken out, but other then that their march was uneventful. That was, until they got within artillery range of the airport.

Seventy-two Crusader artillery cannons travelled with the division as it went along. They deployed in formation, and aimed for the airport. Well out of range of Malaysian 105mm cannons, they opened their bombardment. For twently minutes, hell rained down upon the Malay defenders. Following this cold bombardment, the Bonstocknian tanks charged across the runway, mowing down any resistance. As the Malays began to flee, the tanks ran them down, taking hundreds of prisoners and killing thousands. Still, the airport was not secure, and pockets of resistance would remain until morning at least.

General Wu, in his Singaporian headquarters, observed the situation. It waas decided that a task force of about 50 Leopard tanks and 50 CV-90s should conduct a "Thunder Run" through Kuala Lumpur, to see what resistance was there. If there was none, the main Bonstocknian force would come in and occupy the city. If there was, then artillery and airpower would blast the hell out of it.

The tanks departed for their mission, riding straight into Kuala Lumpur, holding their breaths and waiting for the enemy.

OCC: I suppose I will RP resistance then. If you could hold off further attack posting until I've got a response up, that would be nice.

OCC: I suppose I will RP resistance then. If you could hold off further attack posting until I've got a response up, that would be nice.

ooc: all right!

OCC: For liability reasons, Hindustani forces will not deploy in Malaysia. However, I think its fair to say that Malaysia had some Hindustani types in service...less advanced stuff like R. 130 MRLs and liscence-built Milans...nothing advanced enough to give them a technology edge for liability reasons. Dai Nippon Koku, could you give me a list of old Marmy equipment that the Malaysians might have? I'll RP the airforce with its RL inventory.

IC:

The Bonstockian advance took the Malaysian military completely by surprise. While MiG-29s had scored victories on the Bonstockian F-22s, it had come at a high cost; all 14 fighter variants downed with nine of their pilots, MiG-29UBs destroyed on the ground. The Hawks fared better, and only 10 were destroyed on the ground with the rest evacuated to Borneo. All the F-18s were lost when Kuala Lumpur Airport was taken, as were the F-5s, M.B. 339As, KC-130s, and four C-130s. The division sent to defend it hardly had a chance, and the shattered remnants of the unit take up positions on the outskirts of the city itself.

The army had taken grevious losses, and the bulk of its armor was reduced to burning hulks. The rapidity of the attack kept the army from mounting a very effective defense on the ground. However, in spite of being badly shaken and deprived of serious air support, army units on the Malay Peninsula begin to collect themselves. Kornet and Milan ATGW teams are brought up to the very front of the Bonstockian advance, and jeep-mounted tank killer teams position themselves along every major road, camoflauged in the jungle. The 105mm howitzer crews also go to ground, and, under competent officer leadership thanks to Marimaian direction, revert to moving their guns by hand. The howitzers are moved into position overlooking the roads out of Kuala Lumpur and then heavily camoflauged. The only tanks left, Scorpions and AMX-13s, are carefully moved up to block the major roads.

On Borneo, things go a good deal better. While the Jabat and Leiku are both burning wrecks, three Laksamana class corvettes are still intact, as are a wide range of smaller patrol and missile boats. These should be able to put up a stubborn defense against any invasion attempt by sea. SAM sites, or rather those not destroyed in the initial attack (a handful of Hawks and RBS-70s) are brought into action, and make the skies at least slightly dangerous for Bonstockian planes, and AAA guns are also deployed in force. The remains of the airforce, centered on the surviving Hawks and MB. 339Cs, will concentrate on surviving until support arrives.

The military is not poorly equipped, or that badly trained, and given time it should be able to collect itself and halt the Bonstockians.

Fifteen hours after the initial strike -

No comments have been released by the Governor of Taiwan. The central government has also been silent.

From a location some 700km from Singapore Island in the South China Sea, an SSGN of the ECN launches 45 Hsieng Feng V cruise missiles, targetting the bridge over the Johor Straits, oil facilities in Singapore, and power facilities in Singapore.

From Kaoshiung, a small armada of aircraft takes off, consisting of two Boeing 747s and a small fighter contingent.

(The Hsieng Feng is a GPS guided stealth missile launched in a low-low profile)

Spyr was understandably nervous... having run up substantial costs in originally expunging Bonstock from Southeast Asia, and the subsequent reconstruction efforts, it was frightening to think that the blood and labour had all been for nought. Still, in the absence of a renewed international alliance against Bonstock, little could be done.

A handful of C-1 transports soar from Spyr to the joint naval facilities at Belitung and Taminbar, carrying a few Mosquito anti-ship launch vehicles as well as two companies of infantry, to reinforce defences in case Bonstock's advance continues past the Malay peninsula and out into the Indonesian Archipelago.

OOC:

Old Marmy Equipment that Malaysia would have:

Type-63A Amphibious Tanks
FAV Fast Attack Vehicles
Mi-24 Hind helicopters

That's all Marimaia really sold to Malaysia; the NeoSuunists wanted the Malaysians to be a fast-moving force while the Marimaians provided the heavy punching. The rest of the Malaysian equipment would probably be Bonstockian in origin, left over after the war.

I would RP the resistance except I'd probably lose track of my other RPs (I'm not too good at managing several at once). Besides, I reckon that LRR will do a better job with the resistance than I would.

The Russian government has not commented at all, except to say that it demands democratic elections after this whole affair is over. As usual. Also, secret diplomatic channels have been opened about the possibility of obtaining Bonstockian B-2 technology, in order to use elements of it to construct a superior Russian model.

An oil refinery was destroyed in Singapore, but Patriot missile sites were able to keep safe the bridge. Though it needed repair, delaying a supply convoy bound for the Kuala Lumpur Airport for at least an hour, costing valuable time.

Yet, no response was taken to the _Taiwanese strike. General Wu made a quick announcement to the _Taiwanese:

"How dare you, _Taiwan, launch such a cruel strike against your own race? We are both Chinese. How could you possibly think of striking down the lives of fellow Hans? What madmen rule your country? Should we launch missiles at you when you invade Burma? Of course we wouldn't. Stop attacking us!"

Meanwhile, at the frontlines, Bonstocknian airpower made another demonstration. The four B-2s, with 12 F-22s as escort, flew over the Malay defenses. Sattlites used thermal guidance to pinpoint the locations of the 105mm howitzers, SAMs and AAA, and light tanks. They flew high to avoid Malayan missiles, nearly 50,000 feet high, higher, they thought, then any Hawk or RBS-70 could reach. A sheer terror from high above they would be as the sattelite coordinates were plugged into their JDAM bombs and dropped on the Malay defenses.

However, it had been planned that an artillery barrage would accompany this precision bombardment. Unfortunately, the supply convoy had been held up as engineers repaired the bridge over the Johor straits. Logistics was becoming a nightmare. But the trucks, escorted by armed Humvees and a few CV-90s, bore fuel and ammunition, and special 155mm sattelite guided rounds. Made in a special, secret munitions factory near downtown Singapore, there were only enough for each of the 72 Crusader howitzers to fire 30 rounds each, but indeed they would be devestating as well.

Sattelites programmed targets, and, from the safety of the airport, the Crusaders began pounding at Malayan defenses in five minutes of intense bombardment. After that, sattelites looked in on the state of defenses, and a task force of 50 Leopard IIS tanks and 50 CV-90s ran fast up the road from the airport to Kuala Lumpur, hoping to run into enemy fire and thus direct new artillery and air bombardments.

The Bonstockian bombardment more often than not doesn't hit the target. For the time being, the army is laying very low north of Kuala Lumpur. 105mm guns sit in heavily camoflauge, as do the handful of light tanks and ATGW teams, waiting for the Bonstockians to come to them. The RBS-70s and Hawks don't fire at the Bonstockian planes, their crews knowing that it would be unlikely to have much effect and would give away their positions. The Malayan army is not stupid, and knows the capabilities of Bonstockian systems. It is considered best to wait for the time being, until the Singaporeans try to advance further north. Major armored vehicles are held in reserve, as the army plans to utilise its superior jungle warfare skills as an advantage over the Bonstockians.

As the Leopards race towards Kuala Lumpur, they don't face too much resistance. Kornet and Milan missiles are fired at the tanks as they rush past, and its likely that they will encounter several instances of dynamite being laid across the road in their path. Annoying and dangerous, but nothing that they can't overcome.

On Borneo, the military is off to a better start. A flight of Hawks ventures out on CAP, looking for something vulnerable to shoot up while at the same time on the lookout for F-22s, and the army feverishly builds defenses. The navy also makes its first foray out into the South China Sea. Two Laksamana corvettes, supported by a number of Osa II missile boats and an ASW corvette, carefully make their way towards the Malay Peninsula, radars and navigation lights off. Further south, a flight of M.B. 339Cs makes a diversionary run on Bonstockian ships. Carrying exocet missiles (if just barely), the Aermacchi trainer/attackers close in on Singapore at high speed and low level.

And in the Johor straits, a daring commando raid gets underway. Using SCUBA gear, four teams (a total of eight) navy commandos swim towards the bridge underwater. Each commando carries enough explosive to, if nothing else, cause a good deal of trouble.

OOC: Bonstock, have you told us how Singapore maintains such technologically advanced armed forces after the disastrous defeat? You also realise that small things like clouds and pollution could throw your "satellite infrared targetting" completely off?

Anyway your level of technology especially your space programme and your air force is too advanced for your population and circumstances, given that Sinagpore's popuation is only some 4 million and the fact that the collapse of FRB would undoubtably have had repercussions on the city's economy, notwithstanding the "international pariah" image after the war.

OOC: Bonsy, neither the Americans or the Chinese would fund you, so it's bloody lucky that your army can get across the strait. To keep your blitzkrieg running, you may have to pressgang Malay civilians as slave laborers or soldiers, but that will have terrible consequences for your ranks.

A J-10 fighter soared closely to the Burmese border, before pulling back by thrust vectoring, Gen. Lim looked up, before issuing a telegram to his Burmese and Malay counterparts. The message was simple, should they require Chinese help in repelling the invaders, we are willing to cross over, in full force with limited contacts with civilians. Like the good old days under the neo-Suunists, the Chinese are ready to wage war on their old nemesis.

Singaporian High Command

"General Wu," an aide said, "We currently have forces entering Kuala Lumpur. Opposition is light, but existant. However, grave warnings from the Singaporian Intelligence Directorate indicate that Chinese, Spyran, and LRR forces may be deploying to counter the invasion."

"We'd be sunk if that happened. It would be just like the First through Fouth Asian Wars, the whole world aligned against us. I want Kuala Lumpur in Bonstocknian hands by nightfall. Then, perhaps we'd have a chance of winning before international forces arrive. Open up a secret diplomatic channel with the Chinese and others, and tell them that after Malaysia is in our hands, we shall not seek any more territory. We only attacked Malaysia because they launched a commando raid at the bridge over the Johor straits, and we felt that it was our duty to depose their corrupt government and thus reunite Singapore and Malaysia."

"Yes, sir."

Kuala Lumpur

Two Bonstocknian tanks are damaged by IEDs and missiles, but the rest simply speed up and go on, entering the city. Four of the tanks, however, turn back, two undamaged ones escorting the two damaged ones as four new tanks speed from the airport to meet up with the main force.

Of course, the Bonstocknians abruptly turn away from Kuala Lumpur, and instead ride straight into the city of Putrajaya, going fast and making a beeline for the Prime Minister's office. If that can be taken, perhaps the war would come to a quick conclusion.

Singapore

Details are released regarding the recent hijacking of two Singaporian fishing trawlers off the coast of Malaysia are released. The hijackers, which were initially reported to be pirates, were, according to the press release, Malaysian agents paid to deter Singaporian fishermen from venturing into Malay waters.

According to the press release, this incident was the pretext for the invasion.

Johor bridge

A few squads of MPs patrolled the bridge, M-16s loaded and ready to fire. Other then that, the bridges remained unprotected, though lots of SAM batteries and AAA guns were nearby.

In the air

Four F-22s are scrambled to intercept the incoming Malay planes, armed with six AIM-120s apiece.

The Singaporian navy, of course, was little more then six patrol boats, having been reduced to fund the storage of other old FRB equipment. All of them were in the Johor straits, patrolling for any attacks.

The secret communcation are rubbished - the commando raid happened after the Bonstockian invasion, and appeals for peace after the conquest of Malaysia has led to Wu being labelled 'Hitler'.

In the first public communications since the start of the invasion, Liu's compatriots in the ECN (Empire of China Navy) Admiral Tian and ECAF General Ma delivered Wu an ultimatum on behalf of China. The contents were simple - Wu was to step down, Bonstock was to withdraw immediately from Malaysia, and Bonstock was to disarm completely and adopt a pacifist consitution.

Failing that, "there would be serious consequences".

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

ECN ports in Taiwan are abuzz with activity as two carrier fleets are prepared for action. The ECN's first two WIGs will also see action in the upcoming conflict.

The SSGN fleet in the South China sea swells as another three submarines of the Pacific fleet arrive within range of the island.

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

The small group of aircraft consisting of two Boeing 747s and fighter escorts numbering in the fifties is now some 500nm north of Singapore.

A transmission is sent to the Chinese:

The Armed Forces of the Republic of Singapore will only withdraw if given the Malaysian state of Johor and rights to oil drilling off the coast of Sabah and Sarawak.

These conditions can be negotiated. We would like to have peace.

Meanwhile, radars pick up the incoming Chinese planes. They are asked to identify themselves.

(Slight typo - nm, not km)

The reply is brief but blunt :

Bonstock will not gain any benefit from requesting appeasement, but will only lose what little international respect it currently commands. The deadline on ultimatum will expire within 6 hours.

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

Although the mid-air refuelers are picked up by radar, none of the fighter aircraft has RCS large enough for detection at that distance. No reply is made.

News of Bonstocks revival, mainly it being opposed by Spyrians and LLR, both puppets of the Igovian Regime which had dared raise its brow to assail His Most Christian King! soon found its way into the sparkling chambers of Versailles.

It could not have come at a better time. With Beth Gellert mounting a war against French Pacific holdings, a Bonstockian revival could be the very thing needed to through a monkey wrench into red South Asia.

Rashvik Singh, the only ODSL Agent in Singapore, cantered his way down the avenue to the Palace of Governence.

He bore several top secret dispatches for the eyes of General Wu only, written by none other than the head of French secret services, the Scarlet Pimpernel:

"General Wu. You find your regime on the point of expansion or collapse. If you declare war against the Lyongese and Igovians, and furthermore demostrate an ability to assail them in force, His Most Christian Majesty may be able to secure for you peace with China and security...and God willing, if His Majesty triumphs in the Pacific, your land will be an ideal base to break the Igovians forever. Time is of the essence, as war has already begun. There are other bases if you refuse, but without allies, your cause will soon fail."

The troops under Gen. Lim's command are amongst China's most courageous, the Chinese 21st Group Army of 50,000 have a reputation to match that of the American Gen. Patton's 3rd Army in WWII. Being called to prepare for spearheading an assault is nothing out off the ordinary for these tough men. Being supported with the 22nd and 24th Group Armies, an initial expeditionary force of 150,000 total (with 5000 various artillery pieces and 1500 mostly amphibious tanks), they await the order to march into Malaysia. Are the Malays really that stupid in distrusting the Chinese? As they wait, another 300,000 men are on the move to support them later.

Gen. Lim never gives a feeling of pity ofr the enemy, especially those who are of his own blood. It is funnt how a Chinese general from Singapore has been possessed by the spirit of a dead Bonstock. Gen. Lim himself takes pleasure inflicting pain on his enemies, one the most interesting after noons spent in the last year was watching a group of Bonstocknian traitors being herded into a concentration camp in Taiwan Is. it didn't make much difference to the guards. An announcement was made that those who believed that they are not Chinese should stand to one side. Some 150 out off 200 stepped across to the other side. Only to face elimination by SMGs and rifles. It was fun to watch as they die meaninglessly and stubbornly for a country wiped off the face of the Earth.

If you combine a Waffen SS captain and a U.S. Army general, but make him Chinese, Gen. Lim Chiang Wei would be a prime example of the result.

With the ultimatum creeping ever closer, the three SSGNs in the South China sea prepare their cargoes of over four hundred and fifty stealth cruise missiles for use against the Bonstockian agressors....

The operation would put 'shock and awe' to shame in comparison.

IC:

Fortunately for the attacking trainers, they number two more than 24 airframes.

The M.B. 339s reach exocet range fairly quickly and let a grand total of 26 missiles loose at Singapore's harbor before turning back, wary, although not equipped to detect, Bonstockian interception.

The naval element is dissappointed at the lack of Bonstockian ships to attack, and, afraid of hitting a foreign freighter, decides to chance a run on the Johor straits. JDAMs wouldn't work on the fast-moving missile boats, and as far as they could tell the F-22 isn't compatible with much in the way of anti-ship missiles. If a Bonstockian plane attempted to strafe the boats, it would not be a terribly good idea given their 76mm OTO Melara guns and sizable compliment of SAMs.

So, cruising at a stately 32 knots, the naval expedition prepares to attack the mouth of the Johor strait.

OCC: Bonstock, the Kornet is not a pansy missile. It could probably destroy one of your Leopards...knock it out at the very least.

IC: The Malaysian government, its Prime Minister and Chief Ministers killed at Kuala Lumpur international, ceases to function on a central level. While the army's best troops had died in the opening days of the war, over 125,000 soldiers and resistance fighters are still itching for a fight, and just north of Kuala Lumpur several divisions-primarily infantrymen-bear down on the Bonstockian front. Carrying anti-tank mines, RPGs, Milan and Kornet missiles, and a wide range of mortars, the 1st corps prepares to repel the Bonstockian invasion.

OOC: I don't get how Leopard IIs would be chosen over other models for SE Asian terrain. Just our Type 63As can eat your Leopards for breakfast. 105mm rifled (based on the British L7), just one round of DU can do the damage by an M1's 120mm smoothbore. Not to mention ATGMs as common ammo.

In Putrajaya, the Bonstocknian tanks continue rumbling on. Four are knocked out by missiles, and four UH-60s are dispatched to pick up the wounded men inside. Four CV-90s stand watch, their soldiers dismounted, as the choppers fly low and fast over the jungle.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Bonstocknian force speeds up, and, dispite taking fire, arrives at the Prime Minister's offices. Soldiers dismount their CV-90s and rush in to secure the facility, room by room.

Meanwhile, the rest of the division starts heading to reinforce their comrades, leaving the occupation of the airfield to the 1st Infantry Division's 3rd Brigade, of 5,000 men, trucked in on some 250 deuce-and-a-halfs.

A signals company accompanies the 3rd of the 1st, and starts broadcasting new orders to the Malaysian armed forces, using the Malay radio frequency to communicate the following message:

All Malay soldiers, cease firing on the Singaporians and lay down arms to the Singaporians.

A message is sent to the Chinese:

The Singaporian Armed Forces have advanced to the point where withdrawing would be more detrimental to the lives of Malaysian citizens then if we were to continue. Malaysia has ceased to exist as an organized state. All 13 Malaysian states are currently being incorporated into a federation under Singaporian supervision.

However, if it pleases you, we will offer that, if you agree not to attack us and recognize the new federation, we will limit our active duty military to 150,000 personnel, abstain from the possession of Weapons of Mass Destruction, and add an amendment to our constitution renouncing the use of military force unless we are specifically attacked.

This is our final offer.

One squad of soldiers honed their knives outside their Type 89 APC, while another is checking their rifles. Being only 2km from the border, the war would come. The war would come. Gen. Lim looked at their young faces as they prepare for another assault for the sake of China.

Appeasement is a historically proven method of failure. The European fools appeased Hitler before WWII. The SE Asian fools are willing to appease Wu? One demand of territory will only be satisfied by another. Is China not an enemy of Wu's neo-Bonstocknianism? At least when our boys roll in, they can watch the fireworks display and not lose a single life. Goddamn fools sitting freely over this border, unaware of what goes on across the next frontier. Gen. Lim's thoughts waffled on.

The tropical sun shines brightly, tanning the men darker, it is such a lovely day, pity that the war is coming.

[tag; and for South-East Asian terrain I would use a much lighter tank. As for the Kornet ... it would eat a Leopard II alive, as it would most other tanks as well... ATGMs in general can take out any tank known to man.]

OOC: For jungle terrain and rivers, the Type 63A kicks ass. Due to the Americans abandoning their amphibious tanks, the Chinese have emerged with the most potent of such systems.

http://www.sinodefence.com/army/tank/type63a.asp

Any body got links to specs and pics of the Kornet?

[OOC:

[ATGMs in general can take out any tank known to man.]

OOC 1: I debate that fact, as some models older of ATGMs have trouble dealing with ERA and Chobham. I don't know wha'ts Bonsy's liking for RPGs, but the only damage they can do to a modern MBT is blowing off the track(s).

OOC 2 (to Mac): What sort of radar system do modern MBTs have? I'm sure that such are required for guiding ATGMs fired from the barrel.

[OOC:

Well, for the first part I was referring to more modern ATGMs, and they shouldn't be referred to ATGMs I guess, although they are guided, and they are anti-tank missiles. In any case, I was talking about missiles such as the Milan, Javaline, or the Kornet E.

For the second part most tanks have electronic support measures, which basically warn the crew of incoming projectiles. Most MBTs would have a some sort of RADAR, although not very powerful in proportion to ground RADAR arrays. They would also have some sort of laser detection device, which would be an equivalent of LIDAR. But I'm not exactly sure on specific types...I guess I should go hunt around:

Looking at the Italian Ariete, it has a laser rangefinder, and some sort of ballistic computer gadget. But, I know the Abrams has a small RADAR array for close-in defense.

Actually, looking at most modern MBTs, such as the T-80 or T-90 their electronics are horrible. The best I found were:

Merkava 4

The computer controlled fire control system includes line of sight stabilisation in two axes, a second-generation television sight and automatic thermal target tracker, a laser range finder, an improved thermal night vision system and a dynamic cant angle indicator. The commander's station is fitted with a stabilised panoramic day and night sight. The integrated operating system includes advanced data communications and battle management. Tadiran developed the Merkava's communications system, the inter communication system and the VRC 120 vehicular transceiver radio with embedded auxiliary receivers



Challenger II

he commander has a panoramic VS 580-10 gyrostabilised sight from SAGEM (formerly SFIM Industries). A laser rangefinder is incorporated into an intermediate assembly. Elevation range is +35° to -35°. The commander's station is equipped with eight periscopes which provide 360° vision.

The Thermal Observation and Gunnery Sight II (TOGS II), from Thales (formerly Pilkington) Optronics, provides night vision. The sensor is based on UK TICM 2 common modules. The thermal image, with magnification x 4 and x 11.5 is displayed in the gunner's and commander's sights and monitors. The gunner has a Thales Optronics stabilised Gunner's Primary Sight, consisting of visual channel, 4Hz laser rangefinder and display. The laser rangefinder has a range of 200m to 10km.

The driver is equipped with an image-intensifying Passive Driving Periscope (PDP) from Thales Optronics, for night driving.


The Leopard II also has nice fire and control statistics. The Type 63A also seems to have a nice electronics array.

But I'm getting wayyyy off topic.]

In Putrajaya, the Bonstocknian tanks continue rumbling on. Four are knocked out by missiles, and four UH-60s are dispatched to pick up the wounded men inside. Four CV-90s stand watch, their soldiers dismounted, as the choppers fly low and fast over the jungle.

This is our final offer.

The bulk of Malay soldiers, operating without central command for days, disregard the order. Troops march towards their fate, ready to defend their homeland from Bonstock's imperialist urges or die trying. No living man could convince them to give up their freedom and their republic, even in its shabby state.

A few surviving MPs on Borneo let Chinese troops into Malaysia, although under a few conditions;

1. Chinese troops will attack Bonstock and only Bonstock.
2. Chinese troops will not reciprocate Bonstockian brutality.
3. Chinese troops will depart Malaysia as soon as logistically possible upon Bonstock's capitulation.

However, the prospect of a strong Chinese army arriving to back up the Malay defenders is an inviting one, despite concerns over their long-term intent.

The Type 63A also seems to have a nice electronics array.

OOC: I have yet to find any references to that. Please tell me where you got that information from.

Operation Flashlight

If Singapore cannot be captured in this war, is it at all possible for the Chinese to have a port in Malaysia in the future, for the purpose of keeping Bonstock's imperialist intentions at bay?

Border:

Being the promise keepers that they are, the Chinese have agreed to the terms of conduct. Chinese troops have a very low level of interaction with foreign civilians. In times like these, even a reciprocating a polite greeting with the locals could result in a terrible scolding by one's C.O.

Few major Chinese operations are conducted in broad daylight, but looks like there is no choice. Spearheaded by MBTs, the columns stretched the length of entire states, as they crossed from China into Burma. It would take at least a few days to reach the Thai border, by then Bonstock would have probably taken over half of that country. If Bonstock keeps the promise of staying in Malaysia, in two weeks, the Chinese would reach the Peninsula Malaya. The plan is to blitz down there and crush Wu's regime. The Chinese have even requested several airfields across Thailand to be used for the Chinese fighter wings ready for deployment.

Thai troops have been suggested by Lim to engage Bonstocknian troops with no mercy. The Chinese are not there to fight for them, but with them. It is already enough trouble deploying 150,000 overseas, although the decision was expected, due to Singapore's resurging neo-Bonstocknianism.

WZ-11B helicopters flew overhead then flew back, allowing the ground vehicles to catch up, to the experienced Cpl. Cai, they are still an impressive sight. Seasoned troops they are, having fought in Hualien and in the recent Chinese Civil War II, it's nice to travel overseas for a change. War is never a holiday. Having seen so many of his fellow Chinese maimed and killed, the gunner of one the leading MBTs shunned at the idea of killing Singaporean Chinese. Military propaganda have made it forbidden to talk about how Chinese the Singaporeans are, Cai guessed that how they will be dealt with is a matter of the choice of his superiors.

Undisclosed ECAF base near the Burmese boder:

"Load 'em up, boys!"

"Yes, sergeant!"

http://www.anyboard.net/gov/mil/anyboard/uploads/cdfblogoo11.jpg

There is no information on what the spray tanks of the Y-8s were filled to carry, but some say it could be Agent Orange.

Upon recieving the reply from Bonstock, diplomatic lines are cut off in disgust after a final reply.

As Singapore has not accepted the generous offer supplied by China, the Empire of China hereby officially declares war on Bonstock.

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

With two carrier groups with escorts steaming at full speed across the South China sea and reinforcements arriving daily, the Empire's military presence continues to grow. Having secured Malaysian co-operation, logistical strains are greatly reduced, allowing the deployment of land based aircraft to the theatre.

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

Operation Flashlight

In the opening salvo of the war, 450 HF-5 Stealth cruise missiles are launched from SSGNs in the South China Sea. In such numbers, they would overwhelm any defences Bonstock had, not to mention that radar guidance was largely ineffective against such a low-flying and stealthy missile.

Major targets were oil and power facilities in Singapore, and the crucial Johor straits bridges. Military barracks and airbases in Singapore and Bonstockian-held Malaysia were also targetted.

Guo Fu relayed the information back to Gen. Lim regarding the ECN's strike against Singapore as the columns dominated highways. Singapore is small, few targets would survive the high levels of firepower possessed by the Chinese navy.

The Russian government has not commented at all, except to say that it demands democratic elections after this whole affair is over. As usual. Also, secret diplomatic channels have been opened about the possibility of obtaining Bonstockian B-2 technology, in order to use elements of it to construct a superior Russian model.

Secret IC:

Singaporian authorities send a message, in heavy code, to the Singaporian embassy in Moscow. The message is then decoded by Singaporian officials and passed by hand the leaders of Armandian Russia.

The contents are as follows:

We will give you all the B-2 technology you want, including planes themselves, if you attack China for us.

Meanwhile, a message is sent out to most Malaysian army units:

Your lying, decietful government has finally been vanquished. Finally, we can forge from the ashes of the old a new Federation, democratic, free, and united. This is a great day for both Malaysia and Singapore. The two brothers of South-East Asia are now reunited. Join us to make it complete.

We seek not to inflict our dominance on your country. We are only uniting it with our own. However, to do so, we will require your assistance.

We invaded knowing that the Chinese imperialists seek to invade and dominate Malaysia, inflicting their culture upon our two unique and inseperable societies. Already, they are using our reunion of our nations as an excuse to deploy military troops to this country. Those troops, even if we are defeated, will stay put indefinately. They seek to conquer our countries. We cannot let them.

So thus we offer you our olive branch. Wounds between ourselves will take time, but if we unite against the common enemy of China, we will forge our country anew into a world class power, far greater then even the days of the Federal Republic, even greater then the kingdoms that ruled before the white man came and brutally colonized us. We ask that, in order to forge this new country, you for this minute listen to our orders, as we are the only ones with the capability to give them. Of course, being in our service will not only benefit Malaysia, it will benefit you, the individual soldier. We will double your pay, give you better rations, and allow more leave time so you can see the families that you are defending. If you desert us, you will only help the Chinese to dominate Malaysia and Singapore for generations to come. Do you want your children living under the Emperor's heel? We certainly don't.

We are only here to help. Do not believe that we are mere aggressors. Know that there is a war going on, a greater war, against the forces that seek to divide and gobble up the Malayan lands. When it concludes, there will only be two types of people: those that stood by their country in its time of need, and those who were traitors and sabatoged it. For the sake of God, stand with us and defend Malaysia and Singapore against the Chinese onslaught to come.

Sure, the Malaysians might have some reservations about joining up with the Singaporians, but doubling the pay mut have been attractive to some.

The cruise missiles cause extreme damage in Singapore, causing fires that killed many innocent Singaporian civilians in the city's industrial suburbs, but the bridge, though severely damaged, is back online within twelve hours of the attack thanks to the dogged efforts of Singaporian engineers.

Numerous angry Malaysian soldiers yell back into their radio sets, cursing the Bonstockian propagandists and their two-faced lying. Why did they kill their friends, then? Why did they invade? Is Bonstock too barbaric to talk?

Resistance continues, with Malay forces emboldened by the prospect of a crippling Singaporean defeat at the hands of the Chinese.

Following the confirmation of the destruction of power generation facilities and oil facilities in Singapore by reconassiance UAVs, a second, larger strike with one aim : The complete annihilation of the infrastructure behind the Bonstockian military forces.

A second strike consisting of a similar number of cruise missiles is launched from arsenal ships in the South China Sea, with the aim of destroying any military infrastructure left behind, the bridges, and telecommunications facilities in Singapore, previously left out for fear of targetting civilians. Simultaneously, almost 100 Sea Launched Anti-Radiation missiles (OOC: Basically a naval launched version of the ALARM) are fired into the city and Bonstockian-occupied Malaysia against radar stations.

[OOC: Wow, Bonstock's offensive should have been better planned, especially concerning defenses against foreign sea power.]

[OOC: Wow, Bonstock's offensive should have been better planned, especially concerning defenses against foreign sea power.]

OOC: He's virtullay left his homeland opened to invasion by the seas.

==========================================================

IC:

Operation Shower:

The ECAF began operating spraying operations with an undisclosed odorous chemical on the Thai-Malaysian border. The bases provided by Thailand proved handy. The Thais were traditionally friendly towards the Chinese, with military military equipment being swapped for great quantities of fresh produce.

In the first phase, the Y-8s take the opportunities of areas that are not completely under Bonstock's control and guard. These border regions proved effective for the aircraft due to their lack of defense. Not even the pilots know what chemical is being used, areas sprayed are noticeable by a smell of bleach that hangs in the air, locals reported itchy and stinging eyes for up to hours on end. The mist eqaporates quickly, disallowing concentrated samples to be taken for analysis.

Amongst the troops departing for this adventure, various pieces of information have been circulating, promoting the use of NBC protection and warnings claiming that such areas must not be accessed without prevention of inhalation or exposed skin. Troops are only told of what to expect, not one single soldier knows of the spraying.

With the prospect of chemical weaponry, enemy troop movements will be severely hindered. Having just reached the Thai border, and more troops being flown in directly from China, it will be two weeks before the full force can gather over the Malaysian border. Meanwhile, the air force is doing the hardwork of spraying the vermins. No previous Chinese campaign have employed the use of chemicals, Malaysia is a sick tree that needs a good spray by the orchadist to keep the vermins away.

OOC: Perhaps you should tell us OOCly what's in the spray.

Numerous angry Malaysian soldiers yell back into their radio sets, cursing the Bonstockian propagandists and their two-faced lying. Why did they kill their friends, then? Why did they invade? Is Bonstock too barbaric to talk?

Resistance continues, with Malay forces emboldened by the prospect of a crippling Singaporean defeat at the hands of the Chinese.

ooc: I did offer to double their pay; sh*t, those Malays really don't have their heads screwed on right.

ic:

Singaporian infantry secure the Prime Minister's office, waving the Singaporian flag above it. Having done that, the rest of the 1st Armored Division comes rumbling in, capturing Putrajaya at the cost of around 60 lives.

With that done, the Singaporians call for authorities in Kuala Lumpur to surrender, so as to save innocent civilians in the city from the Singaporian onslaught. They are told that if KL is made an open city, Singaporian troops will allow local police forces to maintain occupation of the city.

Singaporian soldiers, of course, are quickly shown to be much more kind to civilians then their Bonstocknian forebearers were. Immediatly, after the bridge is repaired, a truck convoy brings up humanitarian aid to those disrupted by the invasion. Food and water, along with clothing and medical supplies, are brought up, as are temporary shelters for those whose homes were accidentaly destroyed by the bombing campaign.

Meanwhile, (ooc: I'm sorry for not responding to this earlier, LRR) Malay patrol boats are spotted on radar heading for the Johor straits. To counter them, a quick flight of F-22s is assembled, each with two auxiliary hardpoints for missiles on their wings. Each of the Raptors carried two RBS 15 missiles. They took off from Changi airport, as most of the other airfields had been damaged by the _Taiwanese missiles, and flew to confront the Malays.

As this happened, another strike of 20 such F-22s is launched against the Taiwanese arsenal ships. Each F-22 carried two RBS-15 missiles, and they fired when they got within range.

For twelve hours, almost all the infrastructure in Singapore is knocked out, but Singaporian engineers get right to work repairing. Almost everything destroyed by Taiwanese missiles is back online within hours. Singaporian civilians, emboldened by the backstabbing of their Chinese brothers, start turning out en masse to work at munitions factories, in labor gangs, and in anti-aircraft units. As a final defense against missiles, 40mm AAA batteries are set up all over the city, manned by Chinese Singaporian volunteers. Any missiles coming in would be targetted and destroyed.

Machine gun nests and artillery emplacements are set up on shore, though with obsolete equipment, to defend against any seaborne attack.

ooc: wouldn't that spray hurt civilians? Agent Orange was used liberally by the Americans in Vietnam, and I've heard some Vietnamese have all kinds of mutations and sicknesses as a result.

OCC: I'm no good at this. Someone else should RP the Malaysian resistance.

OCC: I'm no good at this. Someone else should RP the Malaysian resistance.

Eh, we could wrap this up if you'd like.

ooc: No good? Come on, you're doin' fine!

Eh, we could wrap this up if you'd like.

OCC: The problem is that I don't know where to go...an offensive? The military command is destroyed. Guerilla actions? Quite possibly, although Chinese involvement could make them irrelevant. Perhaps negotiations?

ooc: I guess we could start negotiations on the matter:

ic:

The Singaporian high command calls for the unconditional surrender of all Malaysian Army units, so that the Singaporian military will not have to destroy the Malaysian people to do so. Failing that, the only option would be death.

There is talk that, if Malaysia's Federal Government dissolves and all state governments are placed under Singaporian sovreignty, Singapore will pay damages for the war and rebuild the country.

Malaysian soldiers are again encouraged to desert their leaders and join the Bonstocknians. Again, pay would be doubled, and the soldiers would be able to defend their country against the coming Chinese invasion.

With central command in shambles, soldiers on the Malay peninsula are really only able to launch minor raids on Bonstockian columns and positions. But, armed with kornet and Milan missiles, they are able to threaten the heaviest Singaporean armor.

On Borneo, things go substantially better. With no Bonstockian forces in the area, the local government is intact and the military forces have ample time to dig themselves in.

Near the Johor Straits, the small naval raiding party launches its Exocets towards the bridge and makes a run for safety. Fortunately, the external weaponry on the F-22s makes them detectable, and they will be unable to use the RBS-15F's full range given the raiding party's proximity to the jets' airfield.

welcome back Bonstock. It was getting lonely in Asia without you.

Never isolationism again. Heh.

Submarines are dispatched to the area, though it will be several days before they arrive (and there are ample ambush opportunities along the way).

ooc: It's great to be the warmongering imperialist again. Is a crowd of sexy Asian women still running your country?

ic: A few CV-90s, Leopard IIS, and trucks are knocked out by raiders, but the Singaporians still manage to keep their hold on the government offices in Putrajaya. A call is once again sent out for authorities in Kuala Lumpur to declare the city open.

A message is sent out to whatever central authority the Malaysian government has demanding a surrender, including the Prime Minister (if he's still alive) and the Parliament.

The four B-2 bombers, flying high again, set a course for Kuala Lumpur. Bonstocknian radios give advance warning of the raid. They tell that if the city is not declared open, the B-2s will carpet bomb the downtown area.

Small detachments of Singaporian Special Forces sneak into the jungle, searching for enemy troops, which they are sent to flush out and destroy or take hostage.

On patrol somewhere on the roads from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur

Lt. Shang Wentzi looked at his map of the area. They were on a dirt trail, he and his platoon of 47 men, trying to flush out enemy resistance in the area. It was night. With his night vision goggles on, he was very much unable to discern anything on the map.

"God damn this," he said, turning off his NVGs and turning his map so the moonlight hit it. "Where the hell are we?" he whispered.

"Sir," his Platoon Sergeant whispered, "We've got some company comin round over that way." He pointed to a small clearing. They heard voices, speaking Malaysian.

Putting back on his NVGs, Shang signalled his men to fall in. They lay in wait as a Malaysian squad began filing by, marching with their rifles on their shoulders.

Shang signalled his men with his hands again, pointing towards the enemy, and giving the signal to fire when he dropped his hands. The men readied their rifles. Then they fired M-4s and SAWs at the enemy.

Not firing randomly in front of them like their Bonstocknian forebearers, the Singaporians carefully looked through their scoped M-4 carbines and SAWs, and shot for the heads of the enemy. The enemy fired a few shots back, but most were overwhelmed by the Singaporian ambush. After the shooting stopped, Shang and a few men walked carefully over to the enemy's position, where a few Malays lay wounded or dead. Shang kicked the head of one of the enemy, who by his rank looked to be a Sergeant, thus the leader of the unit. The enemy soldier groaned a bit, clutching his wounded arm. Shang pointed his pistol at him, and took away the man's rifle. Then he turned to one of his men.

"Get a medevac chopper in here right now, this is a priority. I want this man in a POW interrogation facility by the time we leave." He signaled for the platoon medic, who quickly came over, and began treating the wounded enemy sergeant.

In fluent Malay, Shang whispered, "You there, name rank and serial number right now. What unit are you with? Where is your unit located? How many more units are scattered in Malaysia, and where are their locations?" As he spoke, he pointed his pistol threateningly, finger on the trigger.

As soon as the local commander, a Major, hears gunfire in the distance, he curses and consults his map. His patrols had been getting complacent...they should have been able to dispatch the urban Singaporeans quickfast in the jungle terrain. Never fear, though. Before long, a mortar team begins to zero in on the area. Small amounts of Singaporean special forces would be hard pressed to 'flush out, destroy, or take hostage' upwards of 75,000 armed and quite displeased Malaysian army soldiers, far from inept in jungle warfare.

Meanwhile, with no real central government in place (as the attack on Kuala Lumpur int'l killed every single cabinet member and a good deal of the parliament), there is nobody around to tell Bonstock that it is an open city. While it is impossible that the carpet bombing of Kuala Lumpur can win Bonstock any friends, a lesson that Bonstock seems to have not yet learned, it could very well inspire a good deal of fear.

OOC 1: I will not disclose the chemical sprayed. We do not spray into areas of dense population.

OOC 2 (to Bonstock): Can Singapore really carry out all the repairs (including power facilities) within 24 hours? You're such a bullsh*t artist! If every Chinese soldier goes there and use it as a urinal, your little island would flood then sink.

IC:

Pressing ahead in their advance, the Chinese ground forces have reached the Malaysian border, while the ECAf have established bases set up in Thailand. A furious bombing into Bonstocknian military bases in Malaysia began with H-8s, supported by half a dozen fighters (J-10s and J-12s) to each bomber. Areas targetted were, Kampong Lawa, Tumpat, Kangar and Pendang. The 30th to 36th bomber wingers and their fighter counterparts, made simultaneous raids across the border in the dead of night.

An well prepared force of 70,000 men and 500 tanks are planning to hit the Bitang Mountains within 5 days. This strike from northeast will be made easier when the ground targets have been softened up. The chemical spraying with grab on to Bonstock's weakness of preparation for chemical warfare, thus preventing the intrusion into Thailand.

In a daring move, the ECAF have been ordered to perform a major leaflet drop to Singapore itself via bases in southern Thailand. It'll just be a bombardment of paper for now. Toning down the calls of unification, these sets of paper simply calls for "unconditional surrender before tragic losses of life occur".

OOC: It is a complete and utter godmod putting everything back on line within 12 hours, unless your talking roadside diesel generators, in which case where do you get the diesel from? Your refinery is blown up.

Can you actually take some losses for once? And at least attempt to RP realistically given the huge firepower advantage against you?

OOC (to Mac): Remember that time in the RWI when we talked about booting Bonstock out? Take a look at the AMW's answer to Russian Forces.

[OOC: Well, as for Bonstock rebuilding his military infrastructure back up in Singapore, it is quasi-possible, considering the Vietnamese were able to do it in the same time span. But he's not going to be able to bring it up to 100% capacity, and it's all going to be temporary rudimentary structures.

However, he has land in Malaysia, so I don't doubt that while his army is advancing he's been building foward supply bases, meaning his military infastructure in Singapore probably wouldn't matter as much any longer.

Just my two cents.]

ooc: true, it isn't up to capacity, and it isn't exactly permenant, but with hundreds of thousands of Chinese labor volunteers with hammers and shovels, you can do pretty much anything, I think. You of all people have no choice but to agree, Sino.

ic: Unfortunately for the Chinese Air Force, the Singaporian Army did not occupy Kampong Lawa, Tumpat, Kangar or Pendang. All were well behind Malaysian lines, with most of the Singaporian advance having halted just south of Kuala Lumpur. The Singaporians had warned the Malays to be weary of the Chinese. Now the Chinese had just bombed entire Malay held cities, killing Malaysian soldiers and civilians.

Of course, any bombers with leaflets over Singapore are quickly targetted by Patriot SAM batteries, 40mm Bofors anti-aircraft batteries, and squadrons of intercepting F-22s. If any leaflets land, Singaporians mostly look at them with a very inquisitive glance and wonder why the hell the Chinese, their racial brothers, would oppose them.

A random Singaporian woman explained to a camera. "I actually liked the Chinese empire for a time. I almost wanted to be part of them. But why would they betray their own race? Do they have any idea who they're shooting at? Sure, in the last war, they were shooting a rabble of Indonesian and Malay conscripts led by incompetent white officers. But now, they're shooting at ethnic Chinese. What has gotten into them?"

Meanwhile, the wave of B-2s flies over Kuala Lumpur. Each of them drops their ordinance: Several tons of leaflets, all warning of the approaching Chinese danger, all explaining that the invasion was a preemption of Chinese imperialistic designs on the country, and begging for trust in a "New Federation" of Malaysia and Singapore so as to counter the Chinese advance. The civilians are urged to welcome Singaporian soldiers into their city, and allow them refuge, though it states clearly that they will not be forced to provide any.

To test things out, a battalion of 50 armed and armored Humvees rides up the road into Kuala Lumpur, just to see how hairy things are in the city. Their task is to simply drive towards the Petronas towers, then go back, and see what they find along the way. Of course, they go as fast as their engines can carry them.

Meanwhile, in the jungle, Shang and his men began marching again. A chopper had just come in to extract the wounded enemy sergeant, who is quickly interrogated about his unit, its strength, and any information he knew in general. Shang and his men look about, ever cautious of ambush, which could happen easily in the jungles. They stick to almost untouched paths, far away from the paved highways used by high speed truck supply convoys, though those were heavily guarded by Singaporian infantrymen.

These men, of course, were not the glorified city recruits that would have been defined as Special Forces under the Bonstocknians. They were well trained in jungle warfare, having actually visited Malaysia many times to familierize themselves with the terrain. Some of them were veterans of the failed insurgancy in Indonesia, including Lt. Shang himself, who had been a private in the Federal Republic Army and found himself trapped in Sulawesi after the war ended. Through fighting and jungle survival, he had managed to get through and hop a boat to Borneo, and crossed the whole island with a band of around 20 ethnic Chinese Singaporian soldiers, killing every occupation enemy in their path. When they finally reached the other side, they abandoned their weapons and uniforms and hopped a boat to Singapore. A few of his buddies from that expedition were with him today. The Platoon Sergeant, Jiang Dao, and all three squad leaders, Sergeants Fu, Li, and Lu, were all veterans of that campaign. Patiently they had waited for the day they would finally have a chance to redeem their defeat. Now they had the chance, and they were not about to give it up.

Motar shells were heard in the distance. "God damn Jiang," Shang whispered, "We left that area a half an hour ago. Why the hell are they bombing it?"

"Their intelligence is rather late. We're over here now."

"Where do you think they're coming from, those mortar shells?"

"Judging by the trajectory and size of the explosion, I'd say they're from a mile northwest of here."

"Get those coordinates to the Air Force. There must be a Raptor somewhere around here." He looked at the RTO, a little Sergeant a mere year out of high school who could take apart and reassemble any electronic implement known to man, and signalled him over, and got on the radio. Sure enough, there were two F-22s just overhead. Each dropped two JDAMs exactly where Sergeant Jiang said the mortars were coming from.

Shang whispered to Jiang. "Let's get the hell outta here. The Malays know we're here now, and I want to see them follow us headlong into the machine guns at Battalion Headquarters."

OOC 1: If you claim to operate on democratic levels, then the powerof brainwashing needed to work so tirelessly in danger is only possible with extreme devotion to communism or nationalism.

OOC 2: I'd like to see the sort of guidance and radar systems you have for defense. H-8s are stealth, along with their superior JH-15s (JSF-based) and J-12s fighter escorts.

OOC 3: Now you claim that you don't occupy all of Malaysia? Well that's too freakin' bad because we bombed deep into the peninsula. Please don't try to godmode and deny any losses. Otherwise, you clarify you have no forces there and well enter the peninsula by land, unopposed.

OOC 4: When's the godmoding going to end? Can't you just accept that we've f*cked up the island, but you have bases and industries operating in Malaysia? It won't be long before your economy gives way to collapse. I hope you enjoy the fruits of slave labor.

[OOC: Some commentary from an observer of events so far:

1) Bonstock: Twelve hours is a bit fast for full repairs, given the number of different points that would require reactivation. It is, however, not inconcievable that the basics could be restored... stockpiled fuel running small generators to power key systems, for example, could provide a modicrum of effectiveness, but long-term damage should be accounted for.

2)Sino: 1. While IC secrets are to be expected, not revealing the type of gas you're using may cause difficulties in terms of player consensus on its consequences...
2. Before Chinese deployments into Thailand, an RPer for the nation was accepted into AMW (Union of Russia/Maaldathi?). Their participation here would seem key.

3)LRR: Malaysia hasnt been doing too well recently... they suffered the same economic dip as Marimaia, and then their monarch absconded with the national treasury. Many soldiers may not have recieved full pay for several months. Added to the anti-Chinese propaganda which highlights racial tensions in the nation, it might be expected that a sizeable number of units might take up the Bonstockian offer of double wages, at least until the danger of attack by Chinese ground forces against FRB-loyal Malays intensifies.]

OOC: They'd be like the Polish resistance in WWII, fighting to try and keep both the Nazis and Ivans from devouring their country. I doubt that Singapore would even consider taking Malays in combat, as there have been many historical instances where units of conquered peoples turn against their new masters after training and rearmament. As the Empire of China sees no interest in the long-term occupation or conquest of Malaysia, it is more likely that they will simply stand aside, but give sympathy for those that will help them to regain their freedom.

Operation Flashlight was almost forgotten by the enemy when the Chinese cross over the Thai border into Malaysia. 90,000 troops supported by attack helicopters, mobile air defence and amphibious tanks, they expect contact at any moment.

Bonstock is known for surprised attacks, advancing under the cover of day had been ordered. At 0600 hours, the Chinese made their crossing, while J-12s and J-10 fighters scouted the way ahead.

http://pcwar.diy.myrice.com/picture/china/army/047.jpg

The attack on the carrier fleets was not successful. Firstly, the external ordinance stores had been detected from a few hundred kilometres out, allowing the CAP to intercept the laden-down F-22s. The next phase of the war had begun - after Bonstock had not made requests for peace after taking that much firepower, they must be crazy. Total air superiority was the next objective, using some one hundred stealth aircraft from the carrier fleets and an additional 150 from bases in Thailand.

[OOC: Again, Sino, there is a player RPing Thailand at the present time, and such things as permission to cross the country and/or establish bases should be established with them before posts involving such are made.

They have been contacted by telegram and alerted about this thread]

The Bonstockians entering Kuala Lumpur face little to no resistance. While few people are out on the streets, and many citizens have attempted to flee northward, the city functions more or less with a sense of normality. There are signs of looting here and there, but they are not widespread.

Meanwhile, Malaysian resistance on the Peninsula begins to peter out. The lack of any sort of major offensive operations, coupled with little to no pay, has lead to large-scale desertion. Its understandable, considering the poor condition of Malaysia and the total void in central leadership. Most of the Malaysian leadership had been killed on the airport tarmac by Bonstockian tanks in the opening hours of the invasion.

While a few soldiers stumble off to join the Bonstockian army, this becomes an increasingly unappealing prospect as Chinese ground forces enter the country.

Meanwhile, on Borneo, the other half of Malaysia runs somewhat normally, albeit uneasily. They could probably hold back a Bonstockian invasion by sea, and definately hurt one by air. Soldiers are kept in service partly through various incentives and partly through threats.

OOC: I ain't gonna be free until later next week. Where's Bonsy?

OOC: I'm reading a picture book titled Where's Bonsy (Special Malaysian Jungle Edition). (Remember those Where's Wally? books?)

General Wu's Command Center

"Sir, we've got Chinese forces crossing in from Thailand. A wave of 250 enemy aircraft has been spotted by our radars, and we've got a wave of tanks advancing in broad daylight."

"How many anti-aircraft units do we have ready in Singapore?"

"Eighty Patriot missile launchers and 240 40mm Bofors guns are ready, sir. Our radars are picking up low-visibility aircraft, inbound."

"Good. Our investment in radar crew training has paid off. Still, sending in a wave of 250 aircraft really negates the stealth affect. There are so many of them they will undoubtedly be seen. Wither way, what of the enemy armor?"

"Advancing in broad daylight, sir."

"Send up infantry units to block off the Sunga Perak river. Blow up all the bridges, and get the 2nd Infantry Division dispersed in small units along the river and in the mountains on the eastern side of the penninsula. Hold the 1st Armored Division in reserve just behind the lines, and get the 1st Infantry Division to stabilize the countryside and protect supplies."

"Yes, sir."

The order was quickly carried out. Thousands of infantrymen were trucked out to the river, and took up defensive positions. They patrolled in platoons, each with 32 men in four squads of 8. Each platoon had two .50 caliber machine guns and 2 Javelin missiles, to deal with Chinese tanks, while troops carried M-4 carbines and SAW guns.

Behind the line, Leopard II tanks waited for the order to advance, hiding in well concealed jungle positions.

ooc: you should clear the invasion with the Thailand guy. I personnally wouldn't like people using my country's bases without my permission. Stick to amphibious assaults, they don't cause political concerns.

OOC: If I have time, I'll reply this weekend. You ain't seen nothin' yet.

OOC: Now....has anyone seen from the Thai guy recently?

With the Singaporean currency worth less than the paper it was printed on following the collapse of trade through the warzone, anyone taking the currency was either taking a huge bet on Bonstockian victory, or just plain stupid.

The squadron of WIG aircraft begin the transportation of around 50,000 marines towards Borneo and Sabah.

The J-14s drop the opening salvos of ALARM missiles. Although radar guided SAMs posed no threat to them, larger aircraft would be endangered.

Russian diplomat John Buzkovski, recently commented at a Press Conference.

"Russia would wish to see an end the Bonstock-China conflict, as innocent lives continue to be lost while the real threats from the mad Communists continue to be ignored..."

One earth shattering salvo followed another as NF-7A solid-fuelled cruise missiles made their way into the Malaysian, earlier flgihts and satellite imagery have revealed the poorly hidden Patriot sites and radar installations were picked up via ELINT units. Suspected positions of Bofors guns were targetted by Type 89 (122mm) and PLZ-45 (155mm) SP howitzers began bombardments of all air defence facilities within range. No Bofors would survive the rocket assisted projectiles fired from these guns.

If SP artilleries are not enough, some of the older, towed versions facing retirement are due facing enjoying their final moments of action. Under the cover of the artilleries and the zoom of aircraft, the Chinese army creeped up, one kilometer at a time.

OCC: Just one thing, Sino...a Bofors L70 isn't a terribly large target, and is fairly easy to conceal. Also, are you just hurling bombs into anywhere that Bonstockian forces are? If so, you'd probably destroy a lot of Kuala Lumpur and kill a fair number of noncombatants. If you want to look like a liberator, the key is not to kill the people who you're supposedly liberating.

And another thing, Bonstock. Have you even landed any troops in Borneo? There is still half of Malaysia functioning independently and without foreign presence.

"The end of the Bonstockian-Chinese begins with a victory for China." said Yeh.

OOC 1: We have not reached any significant areas of population. The nearest Bofors to our artillery and MLRS have to be hit first. Using advanced satellite thermo-imaging scans, even ground personnel can be picked up. Whenver one we see figures resembling an AA gun crew, readying for action, we hit them. Let's not forget that 'Guo Fu' processses and relays information in real time. When a Bofor is fired, the heat will simply light up on our spy satellites.

OOC 2: Perhaps you should consider relocating whatever remains of the government to Borneo, preferably to the island's northeast, as far away from the action.

The thing is, there really isn't much of a government anymore. Sure, MPs have survived, but on the Peninsula their constituancies are either Chinese-occupied or Bonstock-occupied.

In Borneo, MPs have more or less formed a sub-parliament, but are only waiting for Bonstock to attack.

The problem for the Sinoese was that all of the Bofors guns were in Singapore, defending against attacks on Singaporian installations. Cruise missiles were quickly dealt with by them, but any artillery was either attacking Bonstocknian forces in the field or innocent Malaysian civilians, a target Sino had already bombed. Any howitzer was, from Sinoese positions, terribly out of range of Singapore.

Singaporian troops went north to occupy the towns of Butterworth, Kota Baharu, and Kuala Kerai, each held by an Infantry brigade combat team of 5,000 men, each with a number of trucks, 16 AMX-13 light tanks, and 24 105mm howitzers, plus the support of a squadron of 12 F-22s on call at concealed jungle airbases. Light patrols were maintained in the jungle and mountains, and well-concealed towed 105mm howitzers were fired at oncoming Sinoese soldiers, aiming for their artillery batteries.

In the meantime, old FRB-vintage trucks distribute rice to the Malaysian populace and erect temporary shelters for people who may have accidentaly lost their homes in a Singaporian or Sinoese attack. Singaporian presence in Kuala Lumpur and other major cities is kept to a mimimum, and most Singaporian soldiers simply take over old Malaysian army barracks that escaped the bombings. Police and other utilities are brought back online as soon as they can be, albeit with Singaporian supervision, though Singaporian soldiers conduct a patrols into some cities to prevent looting.

No purposeful acts of murder or other large crimes were reported among the Singaporian soldiers. It becomes apparent that they have grown from their Bonstocknian forebearers. Two soldiers, however, were caught shoplifting from a Kuala Lumpur grocery store. They are quickly arrested by Military Police, and are given a trial by the Judge Advocate's corps. Both are convicted and given five lashings on the bare back, in public view in front of the store they robbed for all Malaysians to see. An apology is given to the shopkeeper, and reparations are made by the Singaporian government, in gold siezed from old Bonstocknian treasuries.

Of course, no Singaporian soldier had yet set foot on Borneo. With the remnents of parliament escaped, an offer is made to them, and the Chinese:

The soldiers of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Singapore will declare a general ceasefire if the Armed Forces of Malaysia do the same and agree to participate in negotiations. Chinese representatives will be allowed to attend if they too adhere to ceasefire.

UAVs launched from naval bases continuing their reconassiance missions.

With the ECAF missions going unchallenged, a portion of the aircraft begin strike missions from 50,000 feet against Singaporean units in Malaysia.

IC:

"Only a loser begs for a ceasefire! In Korea, we forced the Yanks to a negotiations. Ceasefire only creeps into the mind of a belligerent when victory drifts away. Did America even considered negotiations with Hitler or Saddam? No! They knew that victory was just around the damn corner."

Meanwhile...

Having to utilize their fighters, F/A-22s were greeted with superior numbers of J-12s and JH-15s (arrived only two days ago to the warzone). It appears that yet again, the enemy have underestimated the capabilities of the ECA. The outdated 105mm guns could not outrange the superior 122mm or 155mm artilleries. A few Chinese batteries may have been shattered by the surprise raid, but their effectiveness was shortlived, as the Chinese fired back with greater firepower and accuracy (laser-guided shells were employed).

Not appearing as any sort of surprise to ECa commanders, whatever cruise missiles fired by the enemy was, in the new Chinese doctrine, a task of interception given to NF-7As, one of the fastests and most agile cruise missiles in existence.

The Chinese will not be held responsible for Bonstock's common use of civilians as shields. Attempts were made to broadcast into civilian frequencies urging all civilians to stay away from any military site that may be targetted and preferably indoors.



OOC 1: Bonstock, I have yet to venture deep into the peninsula, while you claim that my artilleries were targetting Singapore.

OOC 2: Rice, huh? Singapore's got less rice paddies than a Chinese village. We can all imagine your Mugabe tactics of hoarding up the foodstuff for civilians and soldiers in the front. A very cheap way to buy hearts indeed.

Of course, the 105mm batteries were not the best artillery, but they did the job just as well. To back up the point, they were easy to conceal, and were terribly small targets. Plus, they were covered in thermal-radiation dispersing camo nets, to guard against Sinoese sattelite reconaissance. Still, a few batteries were lost, but many Sinoese shells land on civilians in the towns the Singaporians are defending.

Meanwhile, Singaporian soldiers call for a voluntary evacuation of civilians from Butterworth, Kota Baharu, and Kuala Kerai. Civilians are warned that Sinoese soldiers are coming. Most Malaysians, the days of the FRB fresh in their memories, can easily recall the less attractive parts of the Sinoese soldier. Indeed they think the same about Bonstocknians, but the Singaporians make a stern emphasis that they are not Bonstocknian, but Singaporian.

The outskirts of the towns are mined heavily, and barbed wire and anti-tank obstacles are erected on the roads leading towards it. Jungles are patrolled by highly trained Singaporian soldiers.

Meanwhile, isolated flights of four F-22s make quick raids into Sinoese territory, their JDAMs targetting the big, heavy Sinoese artillery, which was much harder to conceal then their smaller Bonstocknian counterparts, especially the self-proppelled ones. They take off from jungle highways, and fly less then 150 feet above the ground, taking advantage of their stealth charachteristics and low altitude to evade radars. Each of them carries two JDAMs, and two AIM-120s, though most of them seek to make quick raids and then get out before superior Sinoese numbers overwhelm them.

Most Sinoese air missions remain unintercepted, though groups of F-22s make rather annoying appearances at times. Most of their visits, however, are quick interceptions that fire a few missiles and then scurry down to 100 feet above ground, and then back to their bases in the jungle. Either way, the Singaporian Air Force, while not as effective as before, stays alive and relatively intact.

The Russian government again calls for peace, so that the bloodshed can be ended.

"Today the Russian Congress has authorized a resolution demanding that the people of Malaysia be allowed to determine their own fate in a national referendum, without interference by foreign powers."

The implied hint was that the Malaysians be allowed to choose between the two occupying powers.

The Platoon Sergeant, Jiang Dao, and all three squad leaders, Sergeants Fu, Li, and Lu,

Lt. Shang looked out of his truck as it passed through the jungle. Not much seemed to be going on. All was still, and quiet. Too quiet, it was.

He turned to his Platoon Sergeant, Sergeant Jiang. "How much Malay resistance we got here?"

"None. Resistance on the penninsula is collapsing. But now we've roused the god damn dragon."

"I have a very queasy feeling about attacking fellow Chinese. Sure, back in the FRB days we did so unquestioningly, but they had seemed so good with their new emperor. Those backstabbers, they've betrayed their own race!"

Shang's platoon was on this truck, or another right behind it. One of the squad leaders, Sergeant Fu, was on Shang's truck. The others, Sergeants Li and Lu, were both in the following truck. Sergeant Fu looked over to Shang, and said, "Sir, we're getting close to the objective."

"Where is it, anyway."

"Butterworth, some god darn town. They have said that we can't let it fall into enemy hands."

"All right. It won't, then."

A few minutes later, the trucks arrived at their destination. The soldiers piled out. Shang called out, "First platoon, on me, now!"

The platoon fell in. "Forward, march!" called out Shang. The soldiers, rifles in hand and backpacks on their backs, began marching behind him, towards the outskirts of the town, where they found a bunch of foxholes that had been left by previous Singporians. They occupied the foxholes, and sat waiting for a Sinoese advance, some trying to get some sleep with shellfire in the background.

A few hours later, in pitch black, a runner came over to Shang's foxhole. Shang was looking at a picture, and Sergeant Jiang was sitting beside him.

"Whose that?" Jiang said.

"Just someone I know from school," was Shang's reply.

Jiang looked at the picture. "Nice looking girl."

Shang smiled, and put his picture away. The runner came up, out of breath. "Lieutenant Shang Wenzi, First Platoon, Charlie Company?"

"Yes, sir," Shang said.

"Orders from Battalion. You're to conduct a recon patrol, with mind towards probing defenses." He handed Shang a dossier with the orders inside.

"All right." Shang saluted, and the runner left. Shang opened up the dossier, and looked at the papers inside, and turned to Jiang. "We need to get a patrol assembled by 2400 hours. I'll lead it."

"What are you nuts? You can get Li or Lu on it. Both are itching for a fight."

"I can't have one of my good squad leaders knocked off on this. I'll lead the patrol."

"Sir, with all due respect, you're gonna get yourself shot someday. How am I gonna tell that cute girl of yours that you ran into a Chinese machine gun?"

"Trust me, she'll know long before you tell her. I only wonder what I would do if I heard she was killed in a bombing or something, and I had no way of defending against it. Besides, the more work I do here, the more I'll be able to provide for her later."

"Yeah, you're out of your mind. Luckily sanity isn't a common trait among Bonstocknian or Singaporian, so you're pretty safe."

They both laughed slightly. "Well, I gotta get the patrol ready. If I don't come back, you'll take command."

"Thank you, sir."

Shang went around the foxholes, and collected a group of five soldiers to go on the patrol, including Sergeant Lu. They waited a bit, until 2400 hours, before they got on their way. Through the jungle, they made their way to the Sinoese positions.

The Russian government again calls for peace, so that the bloodshed can be ended.

"Today the Russian Congress has authorized a resolution demanding that the people of Malaysia be allowed to determine their own fate in a national referendum, without interference by foreign powers."

The implied hint was that the Malaysians be allowed to choose between the two occupying powers.

The Armed Forces of the Republic of Singapore said it would consider the matter if the Chinese showed interest in participating.

With the Bonstockian air force reduced to operating out of jungle airstrips, further efforts are made to establish full air superiority.

Meanwhile, the two battleships of the ECN join their allies in the South China Sea, along with a number of small littoral combat vessels.

OOC: Two things...1. What is China's position on Putin's plan for EE? Secret position, of course.
2. What is China's view on the Russian proposal for elections in Malaysia?

OOC: I don't think CHina's wants to deal with an even larger Russia, especially when Eastern Europe is at stakes here. However, China currently has much to do right now, and whether you invade EE or not, we don't have the time to stop you, however, the bee will come around and sting the attacker.

OOC: I'll post back on Friday at the latest. I say again, you ain't see nothin' yet. *Puts the straw back in my mouth like a hillbilly.*

The enemy must be stupid enough not to know ass from elbow. Sinoese positions were closely guarded, despite artillery and tank positions constantly on the move. Even the humble artilleryman is armed with a Type 85 5.8mm PDW (Personal Defense Weapon), similar to the H&K MP-7 (http://world.guns.ru/smg/smg49-e.htm) or the FN P90. The high concentration of snipers and light machinegun fire teams were prepared for Bonstocknian sneak attacks. The enemy claims to have undergone a name change, but their methods are the results of generations of a mongrel military of Chinese soldiers and Western doctrines.

The enemy may wonder why there can be up to half and hour of a lull between shellings, that's because when the artilleries are on the move, the soldiers set up systems of security. With advanced tactical C31 systems (similar to the 'U.S. Land Warrior'), all friendly units have registered with the numerous motion sensors with silent alarms concealed amongst shrub and bush. They shall see how stealthily the enemy can move, before some attack helicopter or sniper is called up the take care of the matter.

Lt. Liu was a man who lives with pride to his family name. Despite being unrelated to the famous Army chief, just like the millions of humble Chinese citizens, Lt. Liu Gang had was recently convinced of quitting smoking, just to be more prepared for jungle warfare. The longterm resident of Yunnan grew up amongst the Zhuang tribes of the jungle, his appreticeship of their ways will beneficial to his survival in the jungle. Carrying the trusty Type 87A since the Civil War, Lt. Liu have high expectations for the even trustier 70 rd. drum.

The thunder of endless artilleries, destroyed all that is of peace and quiet that he knew. War is like this, always. His helmet suddenly gave off an alarm, he flipped the eyepiece downwards for a look. PERIMETER BREACHED!!!

Lt. Liu frantically radioed all units to be find the hostiles and kill them immediately. Liu shunned the thought of killing those of his own race, but a soldier cannot shun his Emperor's orders.

"My bow is stuck!" A soldier next to him declared, adding more colorful comments to the weapon's problems.

"Here, you do this, dumbass!" A frustrated sergeant corrected him. Before reloading a 12ga. 981 (http://securityarms.com/20010315/galleryfiles/1700/1770.htm).

The government on Borneo is silent on the issue of talks with Bonstock, firm in the belief that Sinoese forves will, in all likelihood, overrun both peninsular Malaysia and Singapore within the very near future.

The government is admittedly wary of Sinoese invasion and concerned that an occupation might manifest itself, but doesn't have much intelligence on anything at the current time.

The war between Bonstock and China takes a very heavy toll on Civilian lives in Peninsular Malaysia. Refugees leave the country in droves, making for the relative safety of Thailand or Vietnam, fearing the consequences of a full-scale war in their homeland. The Bonstockians inevitably use Malaysian infrastructure for their own purposes, and the Sinoese troops inevitably blow it to bits. All in all, the Malay populace comes out for worse.

Scattered resistance elements remain operational, but all in all the Malay army has ceased to exist on the Peninsula. Destroyed tanks and vehicles can be found along roadsides and dumped into ditches, their gun tubes dynamited and their tracks split. With Chinese forces on the verge of not only overrunning Peninsular Malaysia but Bonstock Proper itself, armed struggle seems more or less a waste of good lives.

Shang looked though his NVGs, seeing Sinoese soldiers within range. He gave a hand signal to the others, and they all took careful aim, seeing Sinoese soldiers frantically running about. Shang, himself a hardened sniper, took the first shot, right at the neck of a Sinoese rifleman.

The Singaporians crouched into their jungle positions, using the jungle as cover. A few tossed fragmentation grenades over at the Chinese, to stun them as one soldier took an Ultimax 100 machine gun and sprayed the Chinese with fire.

http://world.guns.ru/machine/mg20-e.htm

But then, as suddenly as they had come, they retreated. The machine gunner covered their escape, laying down suppressive fire, before he too escaped into the jungle.

Lt. Shang looked down on the ground. He saw a small, metallic object, laying there. He picked it up. As he did so, a Chinese bullet grazed the top of his helmet. Had he not been bending down, the bullet would have hit him on the side of his forehead, killing him.

The object is taken back to Butterworth, and eventually flown to Singapore, where analysis by intel units reveals that it is a motion detector linked to Sinoese Land Warrior systems. It is quickly copied, and orders are sent out for its mass production.

Meanwhile, the evacuations of the northern cities becomes mandatory. Singaporian soldiers distribute food and medical supplies to civilians, and small bands of soldiers conduct civilians to the Thai border.

Most Singaporian positions were to the north of the cities, especially Butterworth. With the civilians evacuated, the Singaporians occupy the towns, and prepare for a bitter street and jungle battle to come.

Patrols of soldiers infest the countryside, but avoid the Sinoese whenever they can. Whenever the Sinoese came close, they would disappear into the jungle, only to return when the Sinoese had passed on. Many plant mines and IEDs on major roads, to harry Sinoese supply convoys. Ambushes are set up along supply routes, but the Singaporians are given stern warnings not to attack Sinoese armored vehicles, but go for trucks and other soft vehicles instead. Armed with machine guns and Javelin missiles, they prepare to carry out that new mission.

OOC: Bonsy, you f*ckin' godmoding wanker!

IC:

Unknown to their enemies, the typical Chinese motion sensor also acts as a mine. Any unregistered person's attempts at touching or moving the object would result in it's 50g of plastic explosive detonating. The survivor would be lucky if only the forearm is lost. (OOC: Don't even think about it. Malay industries are too sh*t to copy anything so sophisticated so quickly.)

Despite having a few soldier's picked off in a raid, those were simply sacrificed as a decoy Lt. Liu called up 4 WZ-11s to drop incendiaries in the enemy's vicinity. The motion sensors were setted up some two kilometers from the site of the artilleries.

The WZ-11s came at full speed, at first guns blazing. Their chainguns easily corrected by IR systems. One low pass of the two gunships followed by the others dropping incendiaries. Lt. Liu saluted at in honor for his fallen subordinates, seeing that they have been indicated as dead by 'Guo Fu'.

The Nanyang Fleet will arrive in Malaysian waters under the command of Liu. The Beiyang Fleet will be returning to Qingdao.

UAVs armed with hyperspectral and IR equipment are quick to pick up any Bonstockian positions, radioing them back to Guo Fu.

Meanwhile, another ultimatum is delivered to Singapore, urging all civilians to leave the city at once.

The Nanyang Fleet will arrive in Malaysian waters under the command of Liu. The Beiyang Fleet will be returning to Qingdao.

OOC: Be a good boy and leave us adults alone. Our fleets do not have such fancy titles and Gen. Liu (from the Army) would be an unlikely candidate for fleet command.

Like rats leaving a sinking ship, the pathetic movements by the Bonstocknians to fortify their positions and mine roads never escaped the numerous spy satellites watched by 'Guo Fu'.

The Chinese kept at their advance where ever possible. Mines were picked off by Type 74s mine-clearing MRLS. Artilleries helped in the process with shrapnel rounds. Within two days, the Chinese would reach towns like Butterworth. The work of the Chinese engineers are not to be underestimated.

http://www.sinodefence.com/army/orbat/engineeringcorps_3lg.jpg

Meanwhile, the Chinese air raids continue to destroy any military or industrial infrastructure used by Bonsies. It makes perfect sense that the Chinese will not be forking out the bill.

http://www.spaceman.ca/gallery/albums/chernobyl/Chernopik.jpg

OOC: ^ Yes they do. If you insist, I'll go play with my toyboats.

The Nayang Fleet was redirected and was heading to Guangzhou. The Beiyang Fleet steered left and will be heading for France.

Bonstockian and Sinoese troops alike are often greeted by angry civillians, young farmers to old grandmothers with babies in their arms, asking them why they feel compelled to destroy their country.

"This is our village! You have no right to come here!"
"Get out of Malaysia!"
"Why must you destroy our nation?"

With Sinoese firepower in full display, the idea of China as liberator soon diminished in popularity. While Bonstock was far from popular, the occupation (brief as it has been) is not terribly oppressive. Citizens are mainly concerned with the fact that their homes and fields are being used to accomodate a considerable armed conflict. And while refugees are close to swimming the Strait of Malacca, the majority of Malaysians remain at home, praying that the storm will soon pass.

A recent proposal by Chancellor Yeh will increase aid in billiosn to the Malaysians and will also include a 70 million dollar increase in military spending in Malaysia.

The French and the Russians have just signed seperate treaties with China. Most French territories in Asia will be turned over to be administered by the Chinese governent while SIberia and Central Asian regions owned by Russia will allow Chinese military bases and airbases to be built.

A recent proposal by Chancellor Yeh will increase aid in billiosn to the Malaysians and will also include a 70 million dollar increase in military spending in Malaysia.

Due to the nature of war, aid delieveries into area held by Bonstock is likely to be used by their soldiers instead. The Chinese have begun dropping food aid, instead of bombs, to areas within reach of the Chinese.

The National Assembly has voted in full support to assist Malaysia in the current crisis. The Social Republic of Viet Nam will open its doors to Malaysian refugee's and has set in motion plans to house over 20,000 people. In another 3 months, that number will be trebeled to 60,000.

Prime Minister Than Loi has stood the Revolutionary Forces of the Social Republic to full-alert and has called up the National Reserve's, but denied that the call-up of 900,000 troops meant the SRV had any intention of becoming involved in the Malaysian conflict, citing the need for Military personnel to assist in constructing the camps and providing other basic amenities needed to avoid a Humanitarian disaster.

Once again, Than Loi took the oppurtunity to ask all combatants to agree to a cease-fire and immediately begin negotiations for peace in Malaysia.

OOC- Xiagao, let me be perfectly clear here: the ONLY territories we are discussing to lease to you are Wallis and Fortuna Islands. Thats it. This still leaves as absolutley French: New Caledonia, Illes Layaute, and the other tiny assorted things that escape me at the moment.

Please dont make it seem as if Im leaving the Pacific, which I am absolutley not doing at all, Im just as a couresty leasing two very small and strategic Islands to you.

OOC:Sorry about the wording.

OOC: I'm gonna be busy all week (probably the same case with _Taiwan), so my latest post will probably be on Thursday night.

Whatever the case was, most Singaporian soldiers were nowhere north of the fortified towns, especially Butterworth. Though hopelessly outnumbered, most of the Singaporians hope that the urban terrain will aid their defense.

Any and all Chinese aid given to Malaysian civilians is quickly found by Singaporian soldiers, who personnally give them to the Malaysian populace, unless the civilians had already found them, in which case they are allowed to keep them. Singaporian soldiers erect temporary shelters for displaced civilians, and engineers try their best to get life as normal as possible for Malaysia while fortifying the towns like Butterworth to the north. Singaporian medics provide aid to any injured civilians.

Most facilities in Singapore, most notably the oil refineries and munitions factories, were repaired and fully functional, protected by dozens of Patriot SAM sites and hundreds of Bofors guns. Also, large stockpiles of fuel and ammunition had been previously stocked up in anticipation of the attacks. The dumps are camoflagued and dispersed throughout Singapore and southern Malaysia, a tough target for any bomber. However, most facilities in Malaysia are utterly destroyed, partly as air defense was purposefully concentrated in Singapore. The loss of those facilities, which the Singaporians had tried to leave be, would cause incalcuable damage to the Malaysian economy after the war. Hardpressed engineers attempt to get them back online, with the help of local volunteers, while medics treat those wounded in the raids.

By the time Shang and his patrol had left, they were far too deep into the jungle for any vehicle to traverse. The detection device didn't go off, a stroke of good fortune, and a defect in that one device was found and corrected by Singaporian engineers. Mass production of Singaporian copies commences, with mines attached to them as usual.

Meanwhile, a small group of Singaporian soldiers manages to traverse the jungle to get behind Sinoese lines. Standing along the side of a road deep in the jungle, they spot an oncoming Sinoese truck convoy, headed to the frontlines.

"Sarge, look, they've got a whole convoy of 'em."

"Aim for the gas truck, son. It will make a nice explosion."

The soldiers crouched down, camoflagued well. There was only a small number of people in their group; any motion detector would pass them off as civilians. One of them took his weapon, a Carl Gustav 84mm recoiless rifle, and fired it straight at the fuel truck as it passed by. The other soldiers opened up a hail of automatic fire, spraying the trucks with bullets. Then, as soon as they came, they turned about, and retreated, deep into the jungle, far out of reach for anyone.

Meanwhile, a small group of eight AH-64 Apache helicopters takes off from a camoflagued highway airstrip just south of Butterworth. They flew low, just barely missing the trees as they sped quickly towards their targets. They soon found what they were looking for. Singaporian sattelites, or at least the old Bonstocknian ones that hadn't fallen out of orbit, give real-time photos of a Sinoese MLRS emplacement. They choppers zoom in. Then they split up. Three of them fly over, firing a few chain guns and missiles at the MLRS but mostly flying to distract Sinoese air defenes, whatever they may be. Then, from the Sinoese left flank, five of the choppers flew in low, targetted each MLRS launcher with a Hellfire missile, popped up above the trees for just a second, and let their missiles fly. Then, in usual Singaporian fashion, they turn around and high-tail it back to base.

A message is sent to Chinese leaders, sent personally by President Wu Shin-kua:

回家。这在你的商务之中是没有什么。

OOC: You don't godmode good fortune, so start screaming, preferably 3 seconds after your arm's (or the entire torso) blasted into mince.

What the photographs did not reveal was the emplacements TY-90 SAMs, dedicated to helicopters and low-flying aircraft. The missiles were originally AAMs dedicated for helicopter-to-helicopter attacks. Four SAM HMMWVs (8 missiles each), to one MLRS truck, the Chinese never fail in guarding their artilleries from attack. The high explosive warheads ensure that even some of Singapore's most potent would not suirvive. Even if that battalion of MLRS don't survive, at least the attackers won't either. A fight to the death is what the Chinese soldiers live for.

Outskirts of Xi'an:

A Chinese 5 DF-31 ICBM launchers each with 5 MIRVs, fired into space. Singapore's satellite systems were wiped out within twenty minutes. Their positions were simply given away due to a lack of aerospace facilities and security.

(OOC: Don't even think about godmoding out off this one either! We know how many satellites a tiny country will have.)

WHY DON'T YOU F*CKIN' STOP GODMODING? Your economy's beyond collapse and those volunteers, don't you mean slaves?

OOC: Let's give Bonstock one more chance. Another godmoding post, and we kick him out off AMW. He's not got the super speed like superman (talk about repairing entire oil facilities within hours), nor does the Chinese in Singapore f*ck like rabbits and their children become adults in five days.

ooc: All right. Fine. If you don't want me here, I quit. I've had it with your flaming, your insults, and your general rudeness. Goodbye, Sino, and everyone else, too.

ic:

In Singapore, an unnamed source holding a "high position" in the Singaporian Department of Defense leaked highly classified papers revealing the reasons for Singapore invading Malaysia.

The Straits Times reported that Wu Shin-kua's plans were to reconquer all of the former Federal Republic, forming a "South East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere," as he himself dubbed it.

Also, it was published in the Straits Times that General Wu was the commanding officer of the Bonstocknian 6th Airborne Division during operations in Burma in support of the Marimaian invasion. It was revealed that General Wu himself ordered the massacre of nearly 50,000 inhabitants of the town of Mergui, done without the approval of then President Harald Gustavsson.

Protests quickly turned out in the streets, calling for Wu's resignation and an end to the Malaysian conflict. As the copies of the Straits Times circulated, whole Singaporian army units mutinied.

Police and military units were sent to put down the protests in the streets before the Parliament house, but the entire force mutinied and, together with protestors, stormed the Parliament.

President Wu quickly resigned his office. It was later reported that he fled the country for an unknown location.

The Parliament of the Republic of Singapore convened quickly after the protest. Member of Parliament Lee Peng was voted acting President.

Lee, in a televised address, offered the unconditional surrender of the Republic of Singapore to the armed forces of China. He asked what terms would be laid down for said surrender.

ooc: All right. Fine. If you don't want me here, I quit. I've had it with your flaming, your insults, and your general rudeness. Goodbye, Sino, and everyone else, too.

OOC: If I was ever rude to you, I'm sorry. I was being exceptionally lenient towards someone who RPs a Chinese country. Invading Malaysia and getting the Chinese involved was certainly not a smart decision. I'll make a new detailed post sometime next week. Now that you are gone, I hope that there's less godmoding in AMW.

I doubt it...

Honestly, the both of you! Are you incapable of resolving RP differences and holding a sane, quality story? One can hardly say that Bonstock is the only one being blamed here.

I think this is being blown completely out of proportion. We should either forget this entire affair or continue it with Bonstock.

Let's just say, Sino should confront him with more generous words, and Bonstock, stop ending RP's by nuking yourself, nuking others, or just quitting as if it was just a joke. This is not the first time you guys.

OOC: Well, since he seemed serious of quitting, I think Anschluss is ze air!

[OOC: What I ask myself is why he didn't go for Indonesia, instead of Malaysia. I think that it would have been less alarming to the Chinese - which is always a good thing to consider. :p ]

Well, if you require anything from the Central Government, drop me a line.

[OOC:

"My troops sneak up on you 100% undetected."

"No, my troops have deployed a 100% effective detection screen."

"My troops steal oe of your 100% effective detectors and make copies. I now have a 100% efective detection screen."

"No, all my 100% effectie detectors explode automatically when they come in contact with the enemy. Your troops are dead."

"No, My troops found one that was broken. They still stole it."

...

Gentlemen, the above in simpler language would be n excellent transcription of why freeform roleplay games such as 'War', when played by six year olds, degenerate into "I shot you first... no, I shot YOU first!" arguments. Read back over the thread... on both sides, every action seems to have been met with invincible counteraction, magically customized after-the-fact to respond to the specific action. We're all, I assume, at least slightly more mentally capable than that, and thus should be able to do better... the point is not to have a pissing contest (which would ruin your keyboards anyway), but to create a mutually-satisfactory roleplay experience.

Now, Bonstock, a question remains: are you quitting AMW in general, proposing that this particular thread be disregarded, or just expressing your frustration? The last time we had thought you quit, we ended up having misinterpreted, and so I thought I'd make sure of your intentions.

If Bonstock has no plans for a return, then I'll issue the call on the off-site for a volunteer to play Singapore in the aftermath, at least temporarily... they may be racially Chinese, but the Singaporeans have been the heart of the FRB for some time, and it hardly seems likely that an Anschluss arrangement with China will recieve widespread support there (even the Malaysians seem a better candidate for unification with Singapore, honestly, given the differences between RL history and that of AMW). ]

OOC: The Singaporean Chinese won't unite with a race that treats them like garbage. It was the glue of the old colonial Bonstock that held them together.

Especially in Indonesia, where hundreds of Chinese were tortured, murdered, raped, mutilated, lynched, and discriminated against.

OOC: Be careful not to confuse RL with AMW. In RL, there is no Bonstock. In AMW, Singaporean Chinese have been running Southeast Asia for years. The circumstances aren't directly applicable.

I think the best course of action here might just be to drop the whole affair. It doesn't have any basis for continuance with the withdrawl of Bonstock.

Especially in Indonesia, where hundreds of Chinese were tortured, murdered, raped, mutilated, lynched, and discriminated against.

OOC: You are so tempting the military of the united China to take that country and exterminate the subhuman vermin. Does Indonesian skin make good lampshade, or are their hair suitable for mattress stuffing? Bring on the camps! Industrialized trash disposal is a suitable solution of our revenge.

I must ask you, Sino, to take it off this forum.

You, as is everybody else, are entitled to your own opinion and I am the last person about to restrict or curtail your freedom of conscience (however misinformed or malignant I might consider it), but this repetition of racial slurs and exhumation of every wrong done by anyone to a Chinese group ever simply does not belong, especially when not accompanied by relevant IC information. I mean, Sino, its not like I hold a grudge against the English because they kept one side of my family down, or against white americans because they practically destroyed another side of my family back in the day.

I invite you to make use of the AMW offsite forum (let me see if I can dig up a link...) if you feel compelled to continue such commenting. If BG and AC can be scolded for writing pages of argument between their chosen political ideologies, it shouldn't be too much for you guys to keep the couple line nonsense posts to a minimum.

I hereby call for this thread to be laid to rest by the members of the AMW community. With the departure of Bonstock it has lost its relevance. (Although, in all honesty, I was disappointed. Though neither Sino or Bonstock is innocent of unfair and (dare I say) difficult RPing, I thought we would be able to work around it with sane outside moderation.

...this RP was so bad it wasn't worth the time...

So this never happened, and Singapore was an NPC the whole time?
