The Lament of War (MT; Attn Space Union)

The Imperium had been called to war; directly opposed to the relentless onslaught of fighting against Feline Catfish, a nation that by its own right should be allowed to bear the weapons for which now it was so villified. And so they had come; pushing forth with zealous determination, against Space Union, an ally to the aggressors. While others sought to strike at the heart; the Imperium would bring its cleaving blow upon this tendril of the beast...

Upon the deck of a Swordfish class battlecruiser, there stood the current leader of operations; Imperial Commander Gaius Julius, the man chosen by the Emperor himself to lead the campaign; he who had been awarded the Macharian Cross for his actions during such venerable campaigns as the Carlsbergian War. Now, he was once again called to war; as deep in this ship and others; hundreds, thousands, perhaps in total millions of men waited to go to war. With pride and humility he stepped forward to the Microphone.

"This day, we step up in support of the oppressed; we raise the sword and the gun against tyranny and we shall triumph. I don't care if you were a wiling recruit; or conscripted; you're Guard now; and we fight till the end; and when you lie dieing on some distant battlefield; or hold the holy standard above some captured city; you know the Emperor stands with you; you know, that in your deeds you'll live forever, as something more than human...
Legend.
Tell me, men of Chronosia; do you want to live forever?!"
"YES!"
"Will you join me in Immortality?!"
"FOR THE EMPEROR!"

And with that, the great engines roared to life; countless battleships; troop transports; Aircraft carriers readied with assault fighters and other weapons; great hordes of Amphibious Assault Craft, ready to plunge into distant beaces; skimmed across the water.
This vast fleet poured forth, black steel upon the harsh cold of the water; yet the sun glinted in the sky; their armaments shimmering. Even though Gaius stood in his long black coat; the bottom nearly touching the ground, his flak jacket tight against his body; adorned with the medals of his devotion to his cause; he shivered slightly.
War was something that came naturally to him, and yet still, at the eve of battle, he felt sorry for those who would die at his side....
In peace it was the sons who buried their fathers; but what father should have to bury his son, in war?

President Harsimran came into the war with his Supreme Commander Yeker and his Foreign Minister Yash Grewal.

Yeker: Good morning, sir we have an urgent message for you.

Harsimran sat down in his chair and leaned back. He took a cup of coffee from the table.

Harsimran: Yes.

Yash: Sir, the nation of Chronosia has declared war....

Harsimran spitted out the coffee and almost choked.

Harsimran: What?!

Yash: They said that we didn't comply with their demand of stopping all aid to Call to Power.

Yeker: Don't worry sir, though, we have full confidence in our armed forces to destroy any threat that the Chronosians can throw at us.

Harsimran: General Yeker, I hope you are right.

Yeker: We have also mobilized all forces and are currently thinking of repealing some forces from abroad to help defend the homeland. But we currently see no need as we have more than enough force to defeat the Chronosian forces.

Harsimran: I still want to aid our allies but I want an full expansion of our economy and started dashing out contracts for weapons.

Yash: We have the entire situation under control, sir. We expect to repel the Chronasian forces and then sue for peace.

Harsimran: I want peace as fast as possible and if we are successful we will not ask money for the damages they caused. I intend to stick to my policy even in war.

Yash and Yeker: Yes, Sir!

Yash and Yeker left the room for their daily routines while Harsimran sat in his chair. He was thinking about what had just occured.

Harsimran: Let God be with us!

At the Nenter Port (Space Union's biggest military port):

The 5th Naval Armada was getting ready to leave. But before they left they had to listen to Supreme Admiral Sidhu. The crowd as sailors were lined up in rows and were in complete silence. From behind the view of the deck, Supreme Admiral Sidhu came up to the podium.

Sidhu: Today we will achieve what we are meant for. We are guarded with the duty of protecting our Space Union. Our land, our families land, our pets land, and our forefathers land. We must stop the aggressors from Chronosia from attacking Space Union. If we don't we will never be able to help our allies ever before and we will lose our pride that we have worked for 100 years to gain. Let freedom rule over tyranny forever as the sun rules over the Earth.

Sailors: Yes, Sir!

Sidhu: I will be accompanying your fleet into combat. Let us provail over the threat of Chronosian forces.

As Supreme Admiral Sidhu left the podium as the ships began to pull out of the port. Scores of battleships, carriers, destroyers, cruisers, and other vehicles moved away at increasingly fast speeds. They were on their way to form the Line of Yelsh around the homeland.

Sidhu: Let god be with us.

He knew that many would never set foot on the homeland again but he knew that their sacrafice will allow 100 more people to set force on this land.

OOC: RP your forces coming in the International Waters. Were going to fight there as the first battle. Is that okay to you?

The Chronosian fleet drifted across a calm sea; yet calm seas often betray turmoil to come. As each sleek vessel slid across the azure waves, tipped in white tongues which lapped at the shimmering hulls; they readied their main weapons; expecting war to come as soon as they crossed into free waters...
Onboard, countless were the nervous guardsmen who checked and re-checked their guns; the veterans who sat, staring into space, or smoking; languid; the calm before the approaching storm...
Gaius knew that not all would return home; some would be lost; but they would die as Guardsmen, their faces to the fire. As they slid towards near certain death, or absolute victory; their mighty weapons readied for the kill; they knew one certainty.
Faith in the Emperor would carry them; as surely as their AK-47.
As Gaius adjusted his great Desert Eagle, and laid one hand upon the saber that hang loosely from his side; he knew that this would be a great War. One the Imperium had not known on this Earth for years...

Admiral Sidhu sat in his quarters as the mighty SUS Mannster left the port. He was thinking of many things but the thing that was on his immediate mind was the tactical plan that was needed to defeat the enemy. At that moment, Captain Bobby came in with a map of the area.

Bobby: Sir, we have the map and are ready to get orders.

Sidhu: Well, currently I believe we will be facing tough challenges from the military of Chronosia. As we all know, we are outnumbered. But we shall use our tactical advantage. This is my plan:

1. We will use our modified F-27SS to spread a smoke screen around the battleships and carriers. The smoke screen will interrupt lasers and radar so their missiles will fail to hit us (80% chance of not hitting us). They will also make launching aircrafts hard from carriers.
2. We will then send out our F-27A and F-31X to maintain Air Superiority. The F-31X will outmanuever the enemy aircrafts and cause them to lose their cordination. Once they do that, the F-27 will shoot the geese right out of the sky.
3. Once we maintain Air Superiority, we will use the F-117X and A-34 aircrafts to launch the SU-7 missiles. These missiles will destroy their first layer and bombard the ships with shrapnel and then ten tinier missiles will hit the ships.
4. Our main target will be the battleships and carriers.

Through the use of this tactics we will ensure defeat for the enemies.

Bobby: Yes, sir. All the guns also have been ready and the missiles have been loaded in all the rocket launcher pads.

Sidhu: You are dismissed then.

Bobby: Yes, sir!

Bobby left the room while Supreme Admiral Sidhu began thinking up a backup strategy if needed. He knew that he would need it, though.

OOC: The ships are on their way to the international boundary. I will will engage in 1 hour.

Supreme Admiral Sidhu looked at the calm, blue ocean. It was so peaceful and it was such a peaceful day. But he knew that wasn't mean't to last. He turned around to walk into his quarters when Captain Puneet came in. She was panting and was obviously excited.

Puneet: Sir, we have spotted enemy ships. They have the insigma of Chronosia.

Sidhu gasped. He hadn't expected to hit the ships until another 5 hours. But he was still, nevertheless, ready to act.

Sidhu: Tell all sailors to man their positions. Make sure all computers are ready and guns and missiles are ready to be fired at a moments notice.

Puneet: What about the carriers?

Sidhu: Form a line with the Volcano-Class and Destroyers in front of the carriers. Tell the battleships to sail ahead of them and position themselves so they are on the right and left flanks of the movement.

Puneet: Yes, sir! Should we get the planes ready?

Sidhu: They are already ready. I sent out word a couple of ours ago to get ready. I guess we were lucky. But tell them to start catapulting them off. We will give them the word to attack when we are ready.

Puneet: Yes, sir.

Captain Puneet started leaving when Sidhu stopped her:

Sidhu: Also transmission a message saying that we would rather solve this peacefully rather than through violence.

Puneet: Yes, Sir!

Captain Puneet left the compartment while Admiral Sidhu sat in his chair. He knew that is was time.

Transmission:

Forces of Chronosia we would rather solve this peacefully than shed the blood of both sides people. If you would like we can setup a conference. But if you refuse we will not hold back. Please consider this alternative. Neither Space Union or Chronosia wants to shed the blood of their great people.

Transmission End

OOC: Also if we are going to fight, could you post what your fleet is compromised of. Thank You.

As of now this war has no motives. Because of the recent Call To Power scandal, Space Union has cut-off aid and support from Call to Power. I think its time to discuss a peace treaty.

The Imperium notes that you are now free of guilt, no longer tied to the warmonger. We too would like to discuss the ideal of peace; for great Empires are not built by war alone, but by diplomacy also.

We would be pleased to start peace talks when you request.

OOC: State your terms. I basically just think we make no gains in this and work to better our relations.
