Massive Civilian Casualties
Pine Orchard
22-05-2005, 23:36
Heavy mortar fire has commenced upon residential districts within Pine Orchard's capital of Srinagar. Our newly formed nation, lying within the disputed region of Kashmir, has little military resource to repel any assault. Our enemies are elusive, and conflicts could have stemmed from ethnic, religious, or international dispute.
The majority of our people are Punjab Sikhs of Indian nationality. Thus it is under our assumption that attacks are those of Islamic extremists.
-Reuters Communique (21:01)-
"It appears that as shelling continues from the hills above the capital, extensive looting has erupted among commercial districts. Sparatic small arms bursts from deep within the city, most likely NOT that of law enforcement."
"We are within a safezone of government control roughly running from the State House to a local airstrip. Women and children are rushing into this safezone in droves carrying random possessions. Men entering the safezone are conscripted into what appears to be militia groups."
"The government's main focus is to preserve the airstrip which contains a large fuel depot and a large array of civilian aircraft. Local gudwaras (Sikh holy temples) have united to repel the invadors to preserve the name of Guru Gobind Singh. A religious war appears to -"

Insurgents are rapidly taking control of large market plazas located around the state house. Gudwaras are burning like synogogues in Nazi Germany. Seperation of the safezone is imminent, resulting in two garrisons at the airstrip and statehouse.
The attack seems to have been organized by former government officials from Saharistan. A genocide of the local Sikh community could quite possibly be taking place in areas we have lost communication with.
We are calling for not only military aid but welfare packages for the civilans within the safezone. Srinagar, if lost, will end with the destruction of The Principality of Pine Orchard as well as distreatment/genocide of the ethnic Sikh population.
The countryside of PPO is assumed unsafe. The capital is the only remaining stronghold. We must not allow Saharistan to regain power. Destroy them now, once and for all.

His Omniferocity's government is willing to send humanitarian relief to the affected areas, pending approval by the PPO government. If the government of Pine Orchard agrees to permit EOE military personnel and equipment which His Omniferocity's government deems necessary for security, an immediate emergency airlift will depart Kaligrad for PPO.

One of our two Sovereign-class Star Destroyers currently in the Sol System are moving to Pine Orchard. We have consumables that would last our forces alone four years, so that is not a concern. We will be deploying 100 TIE Air Superiority Fighters as well as 80,000 troops to Pine Orchard. Additionally, 400 M3 Bradley tanks and 80 Challenger 2 MBTs will be deployed to Pine Orchard.
OOC: My armed forces are a mix of Future Tech (TIEs, SDs) and Modern Tech (M3s, MBTs), but the TIEs are able to be brought down by modern SAMs, as they have no shielding.
To Whom It May Concern,
In this time of strife I offer my advice. Strike down the rebels hard to make an example of them, and to prevent further casualities from occouring. Resources are vital to a fledgling nation, and so you must ensure that you keep as many possible. My judgement says that you should be merciless in your examples of these people. Rebels and traitors deserve to serve in death by an example, instead of living and being a source of irritation and corruption to your people.
The nation of Raridon is a nation of hard rules and action, and we feel that we can help you in your hour of need. We shall provide ground troops to protect your residential districts and valuable resources, and as the situation develops, act accordingly. Of course, our military is hardly an internation peaceforce. We expect to recieve some sort of repayment in the future, when we require your aid, we expect it.
If you agree to assist our nation of Raridon in our times of needs when we require, we will provide aid to your nation for the duration of this raging war. A more detailed agreement will be sent in full when we land into your nation. We will send dropships will our troops in to protect you, and to recieve your intellegence on the situation.
As a gesture of Raridon's goodwill, I will be attending this combat myself. If you decline Raridon's offer, I will still attend your nation's needs, as a further indication of the advantages you will have if you agree to this.
I await your reply, I am on my way to your nation. Expect me promptly.
Lord General, Danthas.
(OOC My nation is modern-tech. My nation is like KillZone in appearance and methods.)

Dammit! This ISN'T what we needed! We're obligated to go and help those people! But we're still operating at a 5% draft! We have the people, but we can't just keep chasing ragheads about the desert for no reason! The Secretary of Defense screamed at the President. At this moment 50,000 highly trained marines, 3 Destroyers and the Counter Terrorism Unit (aircraft carrier) "MFS November Rain" were on their way to the now sieged country.
"Coordinate with local officials, end this jihad as fast as possible. This is what you people are trained for. Carry it out perfectly, please. We can't spare many tanks, just end this and go home.
River Valley south of Srinagar
A Blackhawk helicopter quickly leaves the now set up command centre for Federation forces in the area. Many covert firebases have been set up through the country side, and Federation Special Forces have already began a systamatic elimination of the artillery that has been plaguing the nation. One squadron of K12's has already taken one artillery base out, more are to come.
The Arytian troops arrived in the airport of Srinagar from Hercules troop carriers. They immediately set up perimeter defences around the capital. They were supported by a few tanks from Arytian, mainly the Challenger tank and the Conquerer Mk2. Commander Dante and his officers set up a HQ tent and called for the leader of Pine Orchard. Meanwhile the Arytian Military made itself busy keeping look out.

PPO welcomes all incoming forces. Our forces are in complete disarray and thus must rely on your tactics.
Currently we have a need to expel the insurgents from the capital. They have separated our main airbase and our state house, and are pressing on each position with artillery and conventional combat battalions. Civilians are being killed in scores with each passing moment.
Thus I request a coalition to move into the central capital. Priorities are:
-Reunify the two garrisons
-Expand from the reunited safezone to recapture the entire capital
-Supply the airstrip with military craft
Once these three objectives have been carried out, we will have a base from which the rest of PPO can be taken.

To: All Allied Nations against this rebellion
From: Armothia Forgein Affairs
Though we cannot join this war openly, we want offer the warring nations friendly to Pine Orchard, Pine Orchard itself or any nation hostile to this rebellion several of our experimental weapon designs. Any nation accepting this offer will recieve as much data as we can reveal about our machinery and featured technology, several prototypes and fully trained experts for each project.
We can offer:
Project Nightbringer (tank class, special EMP techs)
Project Hypersoar (hightech, highspeed bomber)
Project Aurora (Highspeed stealth bomber, new unique stealth technology)
Project Cyclops (One-man Combat Walker)
All units were already thoroughly fieldtested, however we would like to know their preformance in real battle situations. Any nations willing to test any of our project will recieve our undying gratitude, compensation for lost troops (though we will send a small regiment of units. These units are to be commanded as the accepting nation sees fit). Should the testing nation request an alliance, we would also gladly agree and upon completion of said projects, we will send several units to any allies.
We ask in return only a small report of technology failure/succes, casualties (enemy and own), notifications in what battles/wars our units will be deployed (so we can follow their progress ourselves as well) and strict secrecy about all accuired technology, but what is strictly nescessary.
Hoping to hear from you,

The Supreme Commander of the Principality of Pine Orchard's Military Forces has been confirmed KIA in a fierce firefight within the PPO State House. We are now blind. No organized military forces exist with the exception of the Sacred Guard (protectors of the State House), which are now engaged within the upper floors of their domain.
Arytian is now, with our concent, in control of the airbase. We urge other nations to free the State House and local gurdwaras. It is now CONFIRMED that the Sikh population is being shot mercilessly by the Saharistan terrorists. We are dealing with a genocide.
Dante called to Astelan, a trusted friend and military leader.
''You heard what the Primeminister said, I want you to take 500 men and 2 Challenger Tanks and get those officials.
Radio: This is Commander Dante, I want 2 Harriers to make a passing sweep of the road leading up to government building and I want them to take out any military they see. I want 10 Harriers to try and get rid of the terrorist forces on the airfield. Over.
-----------------------------------------------
Captain Astelan led his force out of the secure zone of the capital as the Harriers flew over him....
1st Harrier Radio: Straight ahead, I think I see AA position, they've fired. Shit, shit! Releasing countermeasures, evasiv........
2nd Harrier Radio: Bastards, launching air-to-ground missiles now....direct hit. We've smoked 'em. Continuing pass-over.
Astelan could now hear the sounds of fighting, it looked like the Harrier's had done a good, if not small job. They only came across the remains of two enemy positions.
Astelan ordered his men to split into five groups of 50 men each, under two 2nd Leuftenants, two 1st Leuftenants and himself. They would each attack from different sides, hoping to surround the enemy and force them to surrender. The sound of gunfire hitting the street came to Astelan's ears and he realised the enemy had started firing at them. He radioed the first group to try and take out the ground floor.
----------------------
As the first of the group went in they were mown down by a machine gun placed in front of the door, ten good men were down. The rest stopped short of the door and threw in three grenades, after this they threw in one smoke grenade and rushed in. They scoured the rest of the base floor taking a few casualties. The next group of fifty men came in and ran and took positions by the stairs along with the remnants of the first group, 30 or so men. They had not taken any prisoners, all were slain. The 2nd group of men were more wary than the first and threw multiple smoke grenades up stairs and ran up. They found what looked to be government officials and were soon killed by the explosion of grenades from the terrorist inside the clothes. Another couple of brave men down. Any more ''government officials would have to be delt in a different manner. The base and second floors were soon under Arytian control. Astelan decided it was time to find out where the real hostages were. He got a few men and dressed them up in terrorist clothing, and sent the wolves-in-sheeps-clothing in.
-------------------------------
The three men hurried up stairs and shouted at any terrorists they saw that a military force was coming. This sent the terrorists down straight into the waiting guns of the Arytian Military, no mercy shown. The soldiers continued up to the top floor where they found the hostages. They marked where it was on the fourth floor and went down a floor, where they stripped of the terrorist clothing and went down stairs. Unfortunately a young, trigger-happy man thought they were terrorists and so they became the first victims of friendly fire. The Arytian Military stormed through the rest of the building sustaining few casualties until they came to the hostages. They cut their bounds and took them outside where they placed them in one of the waiting tanks. Half of those alive were left under a 1st Leuftenant and guarded the building. A total loss of twenty to thirty Arytian lives. The government officials were presented back to the PM of Pine Orchard.

To: Whom it may concern
From: Chancellor Licinius
We, a nation who has recovered from several revolutions ourselves, hate when revolutions spring up. The so-called ‘freedom-fighters’ slaughter without thought and pave the nation in the blood of their brothers, they need to be stopped. At this moment we are organizing airlifts to bring 50,000 Dinosaurs into your capital and clean it out. Just so you don’t think we’re dropping in reincarnated extinct beings, a dinosaur is a Borman elite soldier, which can easily face odds of 5 to 1 and win. We are preparing the 1st and 2nd fleet to transport the 7th army to your shores, consisting of 1,000,000 Borman soldiers. We seek to stamp out revolutions wherever they occur. As soon as the Borman soldiers, providing you allow them access, set up a Borman run airfield we can immediately begin bringing in humanitarian aid, in our experiences airfields or bases not run by us usually blow up when we’re in them. Also, with the 1st fleet there with be several aircraft carriers to bring aviary assistance to your nation.

However the city is still mostly in insurgent control. I am moving my Sacred Guard forces to the residential districts east of the State House. It is of our understanding that several dozen hostages are being held in this area.

"Well sir, we've suffered at least 40 dead and another 10 wounded. If I may say sir, we should find better cover or we're just sitting ducks." "Right...get 1st and 3rd platoon, and move them 20 meters from our position. Send word when you've reached it, and Lopez....good luck."*
The soldiers from the 27th are fighting on the rooftops throughout the city, taking moderate loses, but not making any progess towards the fires or any known hostages.
Soldiers from the 27th are using the top of the State House to call in artillery on the worst points of the city.
While west of the State House a Blackhawk helicopter dropping off soldiers has gotten lost and then crashed through the roof of a building. No support from the 27th is available to them, so anyone who has some units out there may want to check into aiding them.

Srinagar is the only major city in Pine Orchard. It is a rural nation. Your TIE fleet would be greatly valued if they bombed forces moving into Srinagar. Also there is an industrial district where pesticides are made. Bomb that so the insurgents may not use such chemicals against Pine Orchard.

Captain Astelan called together the one hundred and fifty men still in guard of the state house.
''A detachment of the Sacred Guard are pinned down east of our position and they desperately need our help...We are gonna give it to them. I want 80 men to come with me and the rest to stay here.''
-------------------
Moving through the city was tough, and the 80 or so men sustained about 10% losses. They could hear the sounds of gunfire as they rushed towards the Sacred Guard position. All they wanted to do was get them out.
''Greetings Sir, I am Captain Astelan of the Arytian force here in Srinagar, we're here to get you out. I'll hold off the insurgents with twenty or so of my men. You get out of here with the rest. Head to the state house it is in Arytian hands, you should be safe there.'' The men start to head off, and the terrorists seeing their enemies escape charge.
''Run! Faster! Go!'' Astelan shouted and the Sacred Guard and the remaining 70 or so men ran full speed. The terrorists were too many for the Arytian's to hold off and they were soon over run. There were no survivors. Captain Astelan, second in command of the Arytian Coalition Forces was one of the last to die.
OOC: Poor Astelan, breaks down and weeps :(
IC: Commander Dante rushed into the State House, to congratulate his friend Astelan. He called his name but only a soldier came running to him with tears in his eyes.
''Sir, Captain Astelan...he stayed with a few brave men sir, they....they stood now chance...they stayed behind to save us sir. I...I am sorry.''
Hearing that his best friend had died, Dante broke down and wept. After a while he rose red-eyed, but noble looking nontheless
''What shall we do now sir?'' asked a soldier
''Kill the bastards, kill them all.'' replied Dante. With this he turned and walked....

Local Sikh leaders are calling for protection of their gurdwaras from the insurgency. I am asking for people to send small groups to defend the over 50 gurdwaras around Srinagar.
Well, when I said "major complexes" I was only talking about the Airfield and the State House... while my paratroopers are out there trying to figure out where to go (a common trait for paratroopers), could you direct me to where I could have my troops attack?

The soldiers from the 27th are fighting on the rooftops throughout the city, taking moderate loses, but not making any progess towards the fires or any known hostages.
Soldiers from the 27th are using the top of the State House to call in artillery on the worst points of the city.
While west of the State House a Blackhawk helicopter dropping off soldiers has gotten lost and then crashed through the roof of a building. No support from the 27th is available to them, so anyone who has some units out there may want to check into aiding them.
I'll send at least 30 of my men to see what is happening and defend them from any insurgent attack. I just need to know the relative location.

As per your wishes, our TIE Fighters will begin rotating patrol around Srinagar. We will be using the air strip as a base for this, and there must be enough space for 75 TIEs at any time. (This would require about 3,500 sq ft, which is not much) 20 TIE/ln Fighters will be in the air at any given time, all in different orbits around Srinagar to lessen chances of widespread fighter loss. Another five TIEs will be on reconnaissance missions in Pine Orchard. Each rotation will last 6 hours. 30 TIE Bombers have been called from the TCS Indefinite Article, and should arrive at your pesticide plants within two hours.

That's the general problem here. They got lost somewhere about 8 KM's west from the State House, hit by small arms fire, and then they crashed through an ammunitions dump. It hasn't exploded yet, but they are worried about that. All the more reasons for them to get rid of that ammo faster. :)
I wouldn't recommend going in by the air, now.

Re: War on Terror
The Democratic Republic of Halberdgardia was one of the members of the coalition of nations that recently ousted the al Zaraqwi regime. We are most angered by the efforts of these Saharistani insurgents to attempt to destabilize your country, and so, in a continuing effort in the war on terrorism, The Democratic Republic of Halberdgardia pledges its support for to the nation of Pine Orchard. We are deploying naval and air forces, as well as a detachment of 5,000 Halbergardian Special Forces troops, to the region, and can reinforce with additional ground troops if necessary. The armada will arrive within a matter of days. We condemn the terrorists' massacre of your Sikh population and vow that the terrorists, like their late leader, will have justice brought upon them.

However this is not a time for grieving but a time to kill the insurgents. Where do you want my force to go now?

A bullet hits the last remaining sniper in the unit (also the last person left on top of the building, the rest had either fallen on through with the blackhawk or climbed down to hold the peremeter.)
"Sir! I just found more RPG's! I suggest we use these to cut off the entraces to the courtyard and save the rest for any enemy armor that may show up!"

In fact, Mu... erm.. al Zarqawi is not dead. He is in cryostasis as planned by Leafanistan, and since insurgents were attacking the Leafanistani cryochamber, the leader and Nina Myers, one of his aides, are safe on the TCS Awakening, Reichsführer Aven Tannen's personal flagship.
As for the TIEs, they have been ordered to bomb the plants. We are planning a carpet bombing with precise attacks meant to bring great structural integrity failures to the plants, eventually causing them to collapse into steaming heaps of steel. Our bombers are so accurate that we can take out the plants without harming nearby buildings.

The team had been fighting a long, bloody, and difficult battle up the streets of whatever city they were in. The objective was to establish a peremeter near the plant... whereever it was.
"Sir! We're getting low on ammo! I suggest we try to find another way there!"
At the same time another report came in: A paratrooper had found an enemy tank, cleared it with a grenade, and hidden in a back alley way.
"Get the men across the street and into that tank!"
A few moments later the first paratroopers made it to the tank, the half of the team that was still alive, anyway.
Yet 20 minutes later, the others were there. Anyone that could got into the tank, the rest moved through buildings as silently as possible. The paratroopers were disquised and eventually made it to the outter peremeter of the fortified plant.
As a combined assault, Paratroopers charged it, the tank blasted it, and then...
There was silence
The insurgents ran into the streets behind the plant. A few were shot, but most escape.
Out of the 50 man unit, 11 make it to the plant.

The war is not over, however. Insurgents have taken the countryside. It is mountainous, cavernous, and inclimate. Our efforts must be well coordinated for the final liberation.
And I doubt the problem lies in Pine Orchard completely. Neighboring nations may be harboring terrorists. This was a surprise attack, which means they were well prepared. Take out the Saharistan rebels ASAP.
Our SU-25's fly over a position northreast of the city. Near the top of a hill overlooking the industrial sector, several artillery guns are set up, along with technicals with 50 cals and RPG's. We open fire with 30mm cannons, spraying the ground with Bullets, and blowing up a Truck with 50 cal on back and taking out several men. On the second time around, 8 ASM anti Armor missiles are fired, destroying most of the artillery guns and killing 1/2 of the remaining Terrorists operating the guns. we are taking small arms fire, when an RPG gets a luck hit and damadges a plane, which returns to base. We continue to strafe with our cannons, and wipe out another small amount of terrorists.

about 1500 of our men walk up a hill, two are sent to look over, and one is immeditly killed, and the other one tries to grab him, but is shot and rolls down the hill. There is are 2 large bunkers on top of the hill, and an SU-25 fires an ASM anti armor missile into it, shooting concrete everywere. In nearby shrubbery, our men are setting up eryx shoulder mounted anti armor missiles. We begin to pepper the bunker with Ak-74 fire. Finally 1 missile is fired, and blows a hole in the side of the bunker, and 15 men flank it and rush in, guns blazing, dropping all terrorists.
Thankfully our army is well prepared for this type of fighting, and has only suffered 25 deaths out of 20,000 troops, most still in city. We have 125 injured, and 2 MIA

Five squadrons of an available 100 Halberdgardian F-22 Raptors scream over the Pine Orchard countryside, closing in on terrorist locations. They drop their payloads of 2 GBU-30 JDAM 1000-pound bombs, for a total of 120 1000-pound bombs. The bombs rip across the countryside, wiping out buried and concealed terrorist positions. As the terrorists come fleeing out into the open, the F-22s strafe them, killing the few stragglers.
"Sorry we're a bit late to the party, folks, the skipper of the Halberdgardian Vengeance had to work out some diplomatic issues regarding our fleet's docking at a neighbor of Pine Orchard's. But now that we're here, we're ready to hunt some terrorist bastards."

-Communique: Pine Orchard Radar Control-
"We have recently lost contact with the prime minister's aircraft. It was flying at an altitude of 5000 meters over a mountainous region. It is quite possible he was shot down, as it is quite possible he did not crash at all. There were no storms in the area. The last radio communication was one of no panic."

"We have recently received footage of a flaming ball jetting across the evening sky. The location, source, and agenda are unknown."

On a happier note, Willink has completed its first Kongo class destroyer; The WNF-Clapton here is a pic (http://www.strange-mecha.com/jsdf/jmsdf/ddg174.JPG) It is to be deployed to the region immedietly.
Anyway, as our forward command troops moved ahead, they noticed strange airplanes overhead, mostly out of date, and they appear to have the markings of saharistani aircraft ! I guess all the ones that fled the country have come here, I have just sent a spy plane over the region to locate the origin of the planes.

Common Radio: This is Commander Dante, I think it is fair to say out of all the forces here, apart from PPO itself, the nation of Arytian has suffered the most, but have been here for the people of PPO since the beginning. There will be many empty beds in Arytian tonight. I am leaving a detachment on 2,500 armed peoples here, to act as Military Police. I shall recall them when the situation is stable. I will personally wire PPO 100 billion dollars to re-establish their economy and nation. The rest of us are leaving.

The Principality of Pine Orchard has connected the loss of PM Singh's aircraft to the reappearance of Saharistani aircraft. We do not have the resources to destroy such aircraft. But a location possible location has been identified.
A plateau 200km north of Srinagar is almost uninhabitted by our people. But the one village that is there, Kharibad, has been cut off communication-wise for the past two months. Possibly this is the site. I am asking for reconassince aircraft to sweep the area and notify us of the findings.

"Roger that", said Col. Ackeren. As soon as the helo's landed, supplies and troops were exiting at a moderate pace.
"Pilot, once we've unloaded, I've been told that we need you to get the other 3 Chinooks on Ackerenia, and bring the 1st Infantry Battalion here. I was not to give you this information until we landed. You have 3 weeks son."
"Sir, yes sir." Said the pilot as he helped the Colonel out.

There appeares to be light AA resistance in the area, and about 2,000 men at the base.There also appear to be about 75 light armored vehicles.
I have dispatched 30 MIG-29M's and 17 TU-22 Bombers to take out the base.
Tannenmille
24-05-2005, 01:38
Our Elite TIE Interceptor wing is on its way. There is also a small contigent of Bombers heading their way. The base should be destroyed within four hours.
Out of the 27th's 10,000 deployed units, 373 were killed.
We lost a total of 12 blackhawk helicopters, too.
As the wounded soldiers are flown out replacements come in. The 27th Tactical Wing is now operating with the MFS Stryker for Naval gunfire wherever it is needed, and in a new development, a full division of Special Forces soldiers have been realligned with the 27th tactical wing, where as 1200 of them are being shipped directly to this country to help fight the insurgency.
The aircraft carrier "MFS Weiland" has also been deployed off the nearest coast, whereas the 27th now has low risk, high altitude bomb runs available.
In other news, scores of paratroopers just came out of the woods after finally figuring out where the battle was. "Being a paratrooper means: not having to know where anything is." :D

Saharistani Base
In the early dawn, the soldiers were walking to mosque. The morning sorties were just taking off from the runway, a sandy, unpaved strip of land.
Then from the clouds came a wing of TIE bombers in arrow formation. Then dropped low and fast, dulling releasing huge bombs onto the runway. Behind them, TU-22s sped above the barracks and mosque. Relentlessly they dropped hails of napalm to the ground. Sleeping men and praying Muslims burned alive under the hellish flames.
The outdated Soviet equipment of the Saharistani Air Force scrambled, only to discover the runway was too damaged to launch from. They stood taxied in the open, perfect targets for the MiGs and their air-to-ground rockets.
The Saharistani AF collapsed in less than fifteen minutes. The attackers faced no casualties as the AA guns were unmanned in the first crucial minutes of assault. Everything had gone according to plan. Saharistan was gone forever.
Unfortunatly, the bombing of the mosque enraged the Muslim world. Now one billion people were ready to fight for the death against the United Nations. A new crusade had been unleashed.

From Col. Azrael Ackeren:
If it is at all possible (though necessary), that all Coalition forces help in creating a Temporary HQ for Coalition forces.
This is being asked of the Nation of Pine Orchard for a military installation (temp.) to be built, so that we may be able to handle operations in the Saharistani nation and border nations.
The Ackerenian Government has already sent 12 Chinook Helicopters carrying the 1st Ackerenian Battalion. They will assist in any security needs, but would be used for the Construction. Ackerenia will also accomodate Pine Orchard with 8 million USD for land usage.
We await your response.
Our fores have reached the base, he is the info.
About 75km out, A flight of 4 MIG-21bis are encountered, and shot down almost instantly.
Our flight splits into two, one for defending Bombers and bombing the base, and the other for air superiority.
At about 50km out, Our Air superiority flight incounters 9 MIG-29A's vrs 12 MIG-29M's. Looks like a dog fight. One of our pilots swoops in, and fires a Missile, which hits the side of one plane, ripping off its wing, and it goes spiraling down toward the ground. The fight is over pretty qiuck, thanks to the superior piliots of Willink and the MIG-29M's performance cababilites are vastly improved over the original MIG-29A.
Our bombers reach the base, and unload some 75 unguided Rockets and ground assault missiles destroying hangars, Barracks, oil supplies, and control buildings. Several MIG-19's try to take off, but are blown apart by Rockets. The whole eastern side of the strip is on fire, and men are fleeing to their planes. More planes continue to explode on the ground, and one of our bombers is hit by a missile from a SU-15 and goes down. 2 MIG-29M's sweep in, and shoot down the SU-15, and drop payloads on the base. The control tower is hit by a rocket, and collapses. Enemy SAMs are being fired every which way, taking down another Bomber, as well as a MIG-29M. Our forces cocentrate on the airstrip, leaving a crater 30 feet deep to prevent aricraft from taking off. From the air, it appears that over half of the men have been killed, along with over 80 aircraft. The rest is being left for Tannenmillem, and our forces are returning to base.

Yeah,
Stryker has been a little isolated now. It was in the port at Baghdad (god help us) for a long time, then when the war started it had to go out to sea to avoid ground based missiles.
Captain Larson has been informed of the destroyer, he's agreed to work with your captain.

In fact, having just checked records, we have 10 TIE Trainer craft aboard our Star Destroyer. Once you are trained with a TIE, you can fly any conventional aircraft no problem.
:headbang: how long has the styker been there ? since he detonated all thoes nukes on his soil ?
The Paratroopers (all of the ones that have found their way back to HQ for more orders) can help train in urban combat.
The 1200 Special Forces can't be bothered to teach, as they are busy shooting bad guys.
:headbang: how long has the styker been there ? since he detonated all thoes nukes on his soil ?
Stryker has been in theatre since the conflict first started. We supported al.... what's his name, at first, and then went neutral. Sailed in international waters while that Valiant was attacked beside us, when they extracted some Marines from the Baghdad airfield before we carpet bombed it.
So yeah, Stryker has been here a long time.

I call upon the nations of the world to aid me in reconstructing PO's commercial sector. Banks and businesses were looted if not completely destroyed during the siege of Srinagar. So I would like economic advisors to be sent in from the United Nations to wisely distribute the post-war reconstruction funds. My people have other agendas to work on, such as the rebuilding of Srinagar and possible construction of settlements in our once untouched wilderness. We hope to rise from the third-world in the decades to come.
So encourage investment in our people. You will be rewarded in the long run.

*refit almost done, the bearclaw class corvette pushes off, and heads for open sea as the ROS-pinetree (motherbear class fuel/support) gets her boilers up to speed. The fast Blackfur makeing circles around her, sonar on full incase the sub is not there to just watch, but try something. Soon as posible they get under way away from the area...*

Aboard the hidden axillary craft bay are 2 Seahawk Helicopters and 2 Adams Class attack helicopters.
On the bridge a Marine in full camo scans the horizon between crests. "Sir, I believe I have the location of the ship the sub was talking about. We'll keep it flanked, just incase they decide to pull something else off."
