Well the biggest mass murders have ALWAYS been heads of state, including many of your American presidents.

Remember the genocides in Vietman.

A large number of 'terrorists' are just people who have no other means to get freedom and justice than by the gun.

Official Statement, Republican Majeristani Government

The rogues under the so-called Holy Group of Global Jihad have dishonoured the name of Muslim with their blasphemous declarations against Halberdgardia and we in the Republic will not stand for such abuses of Allah's name. We hereby announce our support for the Halberdgardian government via whatever means we can.

I have authorised the European Squadron under the command of Commodore Ali Hashami to set sail for the waters near Halberdgardia and the Northern Africa Squadron under Commodore Akbar Mashoun to serve in an offensive capacity once those cowardly ruffians like Yassin abu Qatadr stop behaving like animals and start showing their faces to the world.

Re: Aid

The Democratic Republic of Halberdgardia sincerely thanks its esteemed friends in Majeristan for the assistance they have provided us. Though we are not currently allies, I believe that our joint experiences in this conflict would make such an alliance more than appropriate. Again, a great thanks from the people of Halberdgardia for standing by us in the defense of freedom and the true ideals of Islam.

Re: Your Threat

Did you honestly expect Halberdgardia to bow to your demands? We have never negiotiated with terrorists, so what makes you think we will start now? You picked the wrong nation to threaten, Yassin abu Qatadr.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Across Halberdgardia, Riberao Preto, Coragem, and Estado Novo, security was heightened to maximum levels. Airport, seaport, and border security increased twentyfold from their normal levels of security, and National Guardsmen were detaining and questioning people who looked suspicious in the slightest. With Halberdgardia having been threatened with terrorism before, no one was taking any chances. All military assets were on DEFCON 1, prepared to strike any target, anywhere. Security around all vital military and NBC installations were increased thirtyfold. Global Jihad was going to have a hell of a time carrying out their threats.

OOC: I'm glad I'm already a closed republic with heavy monitoring of my citizens.

Leafanistan will aid Halberdgardia in any way if Global Jihad acts.

(OOC)

Remeber, Global Jihad is a terrorist group, NOT a nation, so we have no borders or capital city.

You cannot invade us in that sense.

Special ops and strikes on our bases are the way to go.

GJ is in the middle east, africa and the far east as well as central asia/west china.

On another note, Halberdgardia, I will be an ally with you, but i have another nation for that, check out Portugalona.

OOC: I saw Portugalona, and I've already transferred my ambassador over. As for striking GJ, SOF was what I was planning on using, but that doesn't mean I couldn't use a bomber to, say, hit a terrorist training camp. Shock and awe, you see. ;)

OOC: Short posts are the bestest!

IC: The ZIG fighters in Saharistan and DFR have been scrambled and all of our 9,800,000 soldiers throughout our Earth territories have been placed onto high alert.

OOC note: Yes, I have been roleplaying in the Algeristan wars with 4.9 million, and now suddenly I have 9.8 million. Just last night I ran new calculations on my military size and it grew by five million for both my FT and MT armies. To make this less of a shock, they're all completely untrained and thus will either "Train By War" or spend 7 NS years getting trained.

From: the Grand Duke of Van Luxemburg
To: "Global Jihad"

we condemn your actions and just one more wrong step could cost you your head. That's not only my opinion, but the opinion of dozens other Nation leaders. your sentence:
Well the biggest mass murders have ALWAYS been heads of state
does affect you, in ANY way. we won't be threatening you again, because we like diplomatic solutions, and we don't like fighting for nothing. Muslims and other beliefs have always lived together very well in Van Luxemburg. we don't want to bring our islamitic population in discredit, and we hope you won't do it too.

I actually referenced your being a terrorist group rather than being an actual nation with the part about being cowards. But it's good to know there's some OOC cooperation. A lot of RPs end up in the crapper because of a lack of such cooperation.

Halberdgarida:

Have any diplomats that are easy targets, any bases up for a attack.

GJ wants to bomb something.

Or I could just put a virus in you nations military network, were not in the dark ages you know. cyberterrorism anyone??????

OOC: Well, you could attack the USS Shaz Bot off the coast of Algeristan, we're gathered in a council debating the outcome of that incarnation of you. Mark Goldfetter, the Provinzfuehrer for Saharistan and DFR is there and would be a stunning blow for me because I would have to find another good name to use.

The United Socialist States of Czechoslovakia announces it's support for Halberdgardia, and denounces the actions of the terrorist organization, Global Jihad. As such, we cannot send any military aid, as we are a small nation. But we will voice full verbal support for Halberdgardia, and wishes them luck and fortune.

As an ally of Halbergardia, and as he has been kind towards NAM-UNA efforts for our peace, we will regard an attack on them as an attack on the alliance, and will react accordingly.

We suggest you back down immediately, you have been warned.

Offical Statement From Her Majesty Queen Rynestone I of Athiyk Linath:

Global Jihad, you're worse than those idiots who sent Michael Jackson wannabies into the capital of Chysile to "Rape our Women and to Make Us Convert". Dissist with these idiotic war declarations.

Not my boat, it's Shazbotdom's. He invited delegates onto the boat for a conference, so you'll have to talk to him about it.

The Democratic Republic of Halberdgardia sincerely thanks the nation of Czechoslovakia for its encouragement, and our friend Muesilania for providing us with even further support beyond what they have already contributed. Czechoslovakia, you have been added to our list of Friendly Nations, and Majeristan and Muesilania are now considered to be Allies of the Democratic Republic of Halberdgardia, pending the establishment of formal alliances between our countries. May we thrive and prosper together in the future!

Small island in the Arabian Sea

Global Jihad cells had now recieved their orders to go over to Algeristan and attack Halberdgardian units and targets in Algeristan.

Algeristan was an easy pick for GJ as there were not that many Halberdgardian troops over there due to the lack of conflict. Algeristan was also only a few hours away from this island by boat and the 'peacekeepers' had not enough troops to secure the entire coastline.

They packed their weapons and supplies and GJ fighters and suicide bombers now went on board their boats and started to sail to Algeristan.

Their boats were disguised as Algeristani fishing boats and flew the Algeristani flag and the GJ fighters on the top decks wore normal clothes so as to look like innocent fishermen. A total of 65 GJ fighters were on board.

The three ship now only had a few hours to go before they got to their destination.

OOC: Just to let you know, there are 100,000 Halberdgardian troops in Algeristan, with substantial air, naval, and armor support, and McKagan and Leafanistan have both claimed major port cities and guarded them with about 15,000 troops apiece. Add to that the NAM-UNA troops, and you've actually got a rather-well-defended country. But please, continue.

OOC: Must agree with halberdgardia. It is a very well defended area, and continuing our PEACE efforts, as PEACEKEEPERS we do not defend coastlines. We have no reason to. We will not attack you unless attacked ourselves, even though we condemn your actions and support Halberdgardia as an ally of NAM-UNA.

NAM-UNA forces consist of 2,000 men, with the Muesilanian military backing them if attacks happen. These troops were strengthened by a considerable force donated by SkyCapt I believe.

The government of North Mack strongly suggests that GJ cease any and all hostilities against Halberdgardia as soon as possible. Halberdgardia is a member of the Commonwealth of Independant Nations. If GJ continues this attack, it will have over...

OoC: ok. i cant remember the exact number, but between Twenty and Thirty nations are members of the CIN right now.

IC: ...collectivly attacking GJ. Now, since GJ is only has a population of 5 million, and Halberdgardia could smash it all by itself, North Mack strongly doubts that GJ would survive for more then a few hours against so many. In the end...

We are global and in many nations.

You can use special ops, but big armies mean fuck all to us.

RMV Cobalt has left port in Algeristan to a more secure location.

If anyone goes after Global Jihad they have the complete help of this forward operating Marine Base and its Downs Brigade APC Combat Team.

(OOC: Someone creating a new nation to aid them in wars or back up their ideals. Also, who are you calling a puppet?)

There's a reason the game is called "NationStates" and not "TerroristCells". There's nothing to stop you having a terrorist organisation operating inside your country without the knowledge and approval of your government, but you can't just be a terrorist organisation.

We condemn your actions of terrorism outright. We dont agree with your operations. All peacekeeping forces have been put on alert.

NAM-UNA would ask you not to attack civilians. If a terrorist act occurs, in the interest of world safety, we would bring in our MTF (Military Strike Force). They can perform a variety of tasks, including anti-terrorism. They are well trained and equipped, highly efficient and the most elite troops our country has to offer.

I am sure many more nations would send in counter terrorism units to aide in your expulsion.

Algeristani coastline

The three 'fishing' ships had now reached the coast of Algeristan.

Under the cover of darkness they left the boats and walked for about a mile before coming across a small village made up of Algeristani fishermen.

The Global Jihad fighters saw a Halberdgardian flag in the village centre, but NO Halberdgardians at all.

The GJ fighters then saw that the women in the village were NOT wearing the Islamic dress code of the hijab and were becoming like western women in their looks, as the Islamic system was dismantled when Halberdgardia took control of Algeristan.

In order to punish these aposates and their conversion to the ways of the infidel, the GJ fighters started to kill ALL the villagers. Within twenty minutes, all the villagers had been shot or hacked to death.

48 villagers were killed.

Then the GJ fighters went on their path to their targets.

A NAM-UNA patrol of three men in a jeep rolled past the village, no more than ten metres away. They nodded and smiled at the men as they rolled past.

No more than a minute after driving past the men, the radio crackled into life.

"Be wary of 65 men, part of a terrorist group. Intel suggests they are moving inland from the coast."

The radio died, the men sat in silence, before it came back into existance.

"Beta patrol, disturbance at a small fishing village about a mile inland from the coast. Tip-off says that shots were fired, be vigilant. Meet with backup outside the village." One man checked the map as the Jeep stopped.

"Back we go, Ill tell ya when to turn off." The Jeep turned sharply around the road clipping the plantlife on the side of the road. It sped off into the distance, towards the village.

"Sir. Something is going on in Algeristan. Some villagers are rioting or something."

"Interesting," Captain Miller, Commander of the large dreadnaught and it's 100 Marines said while walking to a forward panel to begin looking over the crew rosters to see which pilots were available this shift.

"Send in a Spike to put some recon on the situation. Keep a few Blackhawks ready too... Oh yeah, and let Big Hal know we're coming too."

Within moments a recon unit was in the air and headed for the Algeristani coastline.

Some hours later, a group of Halberdgardian soldiers patrolling the outlying areas on their Scorpion Light Attack Dune Buggies came across the village. The lieutenant in charge of the patrol dismounted, and began to search the village for survivors.

"Jesus H. Christ..." the lieutenant whispered as he took in the sight of the carnage.

Suddenly, he felt something at his foot. He looked down, immediately pointing his rifle at whatever it was. It was, in fact, a villager, or rather, what was left of one. His right eye had been hacked out, and he was covered in deep lacerations. Some of his limbs were hanging on only by strings of muscle and sinue. The villager gasped, and managed to say something, spitting out blood all the while, though it was incomprehensible.

"What did you say, sir?" the lieutenant asked. The man repeated himself, slightly louder this time, and the lieutenant thought he recognized it as Arabic. "Does anyone in this platoon speak Arabic?"

A soldier stepped forward. "I do, sir, a little."

"Did you understand that?" The soldier shook his head. The man repeated himself yet again, and the lieutenant looked at the soldier expectantly.

"I think he said they were attacked by masked men. Something about 'they were like avenging archangels'. He said they killed the women because they didn't follow the hijab..."

The man gasped again, uttered a final prayer to Allah, and drew his terminal breath. His head rolled back, and the lieutenant set the man's body down gently.

"Damn terrorists," the lieutenant spat. The platoon mounted their Scorpions and roared off again into the night, reporting their find to HQ as they sped off into the desert in hopes of finding the perpetrators.

Command, Control, and Communications Center ("The Cube"), Baghdad, Riberao Preto, 2023 Local Time

After local command in Algeristan alerted SARCOM (Saharistan Command) to the village massacre, the Cube was suddenly plunged into hyperactivity. The attack bore the hallmarks of Global Jihad, and so the HCIA and HDIA were immediately alerted; they began to work on tracking down and gathering more intelligence on Global Jihad cells worldwide. Six hours later, the HFBI provided some good news: there were no new Global Jihad cells in Halberdgardia; the country was still free of terrorists.

News came in of NAM-UNA and McKagan forces deploying to support Halberdgardian forces in the hunt for the perpetrators of the village attack, and the CINCSAR, General Randall Laurenzi, gave them authorization to do whatever necessary.

TOP SECRET MESSAGE

From: Global Jihad Central Command

To: Global Jihad/Algeristan Cell

We have given you new orders.

Cease ALL attacks on Halberdgardian troops.

New objectives are to capture the nuclear warheads that used by the former Algeristani military and to ship some of the warheads out of the country. The other warheads are to be used in your operations over there. Destroy the capital city and the main Halberdgardian bases over there.

Allah is watching your struggle.

A recon helicopter recently discovered a massacre in a village on your coastline. If you allow, we will send in a Downs Combat Team (5 APCs, 30 troops) to help in tracking down and destroying these raghead scum. Please respond ASAP as our APC's are merging on the border of our province with yours.

RMV Axl Rose glides underneath the waves off the coast of Algeristan. The Navy is now fully alert due to these threats against an ally, and as such several more assets are being deployed against the evil terrorists.

"Captain, we're near the objective." the blonde Operations Officer said while taking her seat. once again.

"Do our job." the Captain, now half awake due to his long shift, spoke while rubbing his forehead.

With those words a small UUV droped out of a hatch towards the rear of the submarine and began to sink towards the objective, an underwater internet cable. From here the front line in the war on terrorism would be fought...

(OOC: GJ, i'm not going to use this as something to break ALL of your Secret IC communications. Moreso it'll just pick up words every now and then, with no real specifics, or specifics with no real information. You get it.)

NAM-UNA troops rolled into the fishing village with two other jeeps, both drawn from SkyCapt forces. They were shocked at what they saw. A twig snapped to the left of them.

"FREEZE!" His voice bellowed into the surroundings. A lizard ran across the open into a house. He cursed at himself.

"Get back to the transport, get in contact with HQ, get some troops stationed here, to clean up the mess. We will head back and give a report." The men climbed into the vehicles. The soldier bowed his head as he kneeled, with a hand on his heart, stood and returned to the vehicle, and drove off into the distance.

A small child emerged from the rubble of a house in the village. He looked about, and ran towards his mother lying in the street, dead. "Mum?" The boy cried into his mothers chest, hugging her.

Algeristani mountains

The GJ fighters has been on their travels now for about 13 hours, were they stoped to rest.

The GJ cell leader then opened his laptop up and saw the attachment that he got with the new orders he was given by the GJ leadership.

The attachment contained data of the nearest nuclear base to them, an ex-Algeristani army base that was still under the supervision of Algeristani guards.

The missile base would need a lot of planning and a hard fight to take control off, but it could be done.

Besides, the missile base only had 80 security men there as it was one of the unofficial bases and due to it's high level of secerecy, not that many guards were assigned to it.

All help in the form of troops (replying from a NAM-UNA point of view), we are greatly appreciative of, but we feel this will not help.

This is a terrorist cell, placing forces on the ground is all very well and good, but we need to operate like them to bring them to justice. We need to remain in the shadows, and strike from within.

However, these are only are feelings (OOC: we do not wish to exclude you from the RP), and the ultimate decision would fall to Halberdgardian.

"Ok boys into the APC's, into the fucking APC's!"

The Colonel was now active from his semi-sleep. He walked across the courtyard to the Command-and-Control vehicle and got in. Since these vehicles inceptions in Saharistan they had been upgraded several times, now they were almost invincable to most forms of RPG's.

"Ok, tell the lead APC we're going to take the secondary road to the village and then steam north to see what we can pick up. Go!"

Unfortunately, we believe we must agree with our Muesilanian counterparts. We appreciate the offer, but must decline. However, those same troops could be used to great effect as anti-terror units operating worldwide to hunt down Global Jihad cells elsewhere, in places such as Africa, other areas of the Middle East, and parts of Asia. Any help you could provide in these theaters would be greatly appreciated.

The Colonel was now active from his semi-sleep. He walked across the courtyard to the Command-and-Control vehicle and got in. Since these vehicles inceptions in Saharistan they had been upgraded several times, now they were almost invincable to most forms of RPG's.

"Ok, tell the lead APC we're going to take the secondary road to the village and then steam north to see what we can pick up. Go!"

The radio operation send the message and the column of low and quick APC's headed into Hal. occupied territory. The gunners fully hidden inside the vehicle on the weapons system we spending most of their time scanning the area and looking for IED's.

As the McKagan APCs made their way into Halberdgardian territory, they were joined by a squad of mechanized infantry on their Scorpions. The lieutenant in charge of the squad called out.

"Mind if we join you boys?"

The Confederacy of DR voices its support for Halberdgardia and its allies. Unfortunatly, were recovering from a war that ended not too long ago.. We cannot spare the troops as they are needed to partol the country while its in a diminished state.

As the McKagan APCs made their way into Halberdgardian territory, they were joined by a squad of mechanized infantry on their Scorpions. The lieutenant in charge of the squad called out.

"Mind if we join you boys?"

Colonel Berate almost gave the order for the gunship of the formation, an APC with a 155mm Railgun, the order to waste the mechanized infantry, since he didn't know they were coming.

"Yes. We believe we know where these bastards are going, there's nothing else in this area. We're headed up into the mountains to check a nuclear facility."

Secret ICBM base, Algeristani mountains

The GJ fighters began their attack with mortar and RPG fire that slammed into the gates of the base and killed over 30 of the security guards at the base.

Then after that, about 20 security guards came out and started firing their weapons into the air, but to no avail as within seconds they were all dead too.

The remaining 30 security guards were up against 65 GJ fighters and room to room and corner to corner gunfights took the remianing guards down.

After the guards were taken out, the GJ cell had lost 7 fighters and where now 58 strong.

What was important was that the base was under GJ control now.

Halberdgardian military forces were responsible for the ICBMs, so the GJ cell leader hacked into the online system for Algeristan's ICBM system and began to sever all Halberdgardian control over the weapons via online command.

As soon as Halberdgardia lost it's link to the ICBM base, they would know what was happening, but it did not matter for the GJ cell had enough time to do what they wanted before they could send over any troops to the base.

The link had now been cut and the ICBMs were now under Global Jihad control.

A small NAM-UNA scout force hid in the bushes next to the nuclear facility. Three men lay with sniper rifles, while the other checked the surroundings. He caught a glimpse of an unidentified group of men.

He whispered to his men in the silence. "Hold your fire."

They layed, waiting. As NAM-UNA forces they were not to fire in hostility, only for defence. The commander was having trouble, he knew they were terrorists, but unless they fired, his men couldnt shoot them down.

They waited for something to happen.

"Sir, fucking weapons fire at that nuclear facility!"

"Get us up that road, NOW!"

The APC's took off up the road into the mountainous valley.

Within moments of McKagan Forces learning of the firefight, Blackhawk helicopters were brought onto the deck of Cobalt, loaded with 30 more Marines total, and were en'route to a field outside the base where they would try to retake it.

Secret ICBM base, Algeristani mountains

The Base had 45 nuclear tipped ICBMs and the Global Jihad cell that was now in control of the base was now selecting it's targets.

The main target was the Shazbotm ship of the coast of Algeristan that was holding a delegation that was made up of the President of Muesilania, a leading Halberdgardian diplomat and other top officials from the infidel alliance.

They would all be wiped out in the coming attack.

The other target was the capital city of Algeristan, Riyadh, along with the port cities of Medina and Basra.

Global Jihad was to see to it that NO more muslims live under infidel rule and that they were better off dead than under the grip of the infidel.

Secret ICBM base, Algeristani mountains

5 ICBMs were fired at the Shazbotm ship of the coast of Algeristan and it would be only a half hour before it would be hit.

3 ICBMs were fired at the three main cities, Riyadh, Basra and Medina.

Upon hearing the news of the attack on the nuclear facility, the squad of Scorpions screamed past the APCs, pushing the engines to the redline. Men began arming their dual 7.62mm and .50-caliber guns, and "Beckman" rocket launchers with 40mm rounds. They'd be ready for the terrorists.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SARCOM's satellite assets had picked up imagery of the ICBM launches, and immediately put out messages to Riyadh, the McKagan forces in Medina, and Fleet Admiral Forrester on the USS Shaz Bot.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Frantic efforts began to evacuate as many people from Riyadh as possible.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Forrester immediately excused himself from the conference, made his way back to his helicopter, and flew back to his flagship.

(OOC: I'm assuming that you fired just one at each of those citys, if not let me know and i'll change it.)

"Sir, incoming missile."

IMAF was on red alert now.

"Ok, single missile we can take it. Get me a K15 on it."

A few moments later the K15 moved onto station and fired it's EMP anti-missile weapon at the missile.

It was a kill. The missile, however, still dropped into the outer part of the bay...

Basra

Being the nearest city to the ICBM base, Basra had no real chance to defend itself against the missile as it had not enough time.

The ICBM headed straight into the city centre, passing onlookers and the skyscrapers of the city centre.

Then it slammed into the city, engulfing Basra into an HUGE orange fireball.

The other ICBMs were still in the air, heading towards their targets.

The Blackhawk Helicopters sat down just above the ground, the 30 Marines were soon ready to launch their counter attack.

"Ok, here come the Hal's. Let's go!"

Fire from P90 SMG's lit up several terrorists (not killed, mind you, you score that) on this side of the building. 10 of the Marines moved around back and were the first ones inside the fencing of the complex.

Muesilania would like to announce that (OOC: not godmoding if anyone says it is, I had been planning this twist for some time) President Taylor, on board the delegation ship is not the real President. President Taylor is safely within the capital of Muesilania, watching as events proceed in horror. The false president has been evacuated from the ship, and is being transported to the nearest safe area.

OOC: This terror organisation can't roleplay fairly can they? Just launching nukes at targets is not fun for participants is it? Who agrees? We would like more drama than "we launch a nuke at you".

The Scorpions launched off a salvo of 40mm rounds at the terrorists guarding the perimeter of the facility. The others lit up more terrorists with 7.62mm and .50-caliber rounds. When one perimeter was neutralized, the troops stormed the building, M-8 rifles at the ready. They took down a few more terrorists inside, then headed for the control center.

The APC's arrived and their troops piled out.

Soon the Marines began to storm in after their counterparts while a few stayed around on the outside to secure any wounded terrorists or shoot anyone else.

Your nation is an evil gang of socialist dogs!

Calm down dude. He's attacking for an OBVIOUS reason. He's rp'ing a terrorist cell that hates anyone on "holy lands." You happen to have alot of people he doens't like on your ship.

Mark Goldfetter, surrounded by three Stormtroopers, made his way back to the shuttle, engines hot and hovering inches off the ground. The four of them scrambled up the cold metal plating into the ship. With a burst from the repulsorlifts, the ship sped out over the water, wings folding out into the familiar inverted 'Y'. Turning slightly, the shuttle raced towards France. A squadron of four blue Laser-class ZIGs broke formation around the speeding craft and then reformed at its aft, moving quickly towards the naval vessel.

Secret IC:
Nuclear Launch Detected....Alert Status set to DEFCON 1.

**On board the USS Shaz Bot***
The fleet got the aleart of the change in Alert Status and began moving away from area at 20 knots. Estimated time for being out of a blast zone is in T Minus 10 minutes.


Grand Admiral Rockenbach was sitting in the Department of Defence headquarters back at the Holy Empire watching everything unfold on the Shazbotdom News Network. Damn terrorists. We have the best record of civil rights in the last 50 years and were targeted cause the government is not a muslum controlled one, he thought to himself. He then walked over toward a map on the wall. We have to defend this nation. Should i start the Emergency Broadcast Network and have everyone in the nation evacuate to fallout bunkers or let them all die. This is a really bad fucking decision. He then sighed and walked over to a red phone and picked it up.

Rockenbach: "Mr. Emporer, we have a problem. I suggest starting the EBN and evacuating everyone to their local fallout shelters in case of a nuclear attack on the Empire."

Emporer: "I concur. Begin the procedure imedeatly"

Rockenbach: "Understood."

He hangs up the phone, walks to the opposite side of the room and presses a red button on the wall. Red lights begin to flash all over the place as signals begin to take over Television, Radio and Internet connections all across the nation. Within minutes, all civilians in the nation were in fallout shelters underneath the city composed of different types of metals.



*15 Minutes later*
The fleet was out of the fall-out zone for any nuclear explosions. A scan of the area found a deserted island that has mineral deposits that could mask the engine signitures of the Fleet and the fleet set course for that location.

Captain Miller was starting to scream.

"Should we go INTO the ship or get off of it!"

Basically, the Marines told him to enter the ship instead of going to the Blackhawk, incase the ship took a hit and survived.

Shozbotdom, we appreciate all actions taken to secure the safety of the ship. The false president, a simple ambassador, will not return to the ship. We were afraid we didn't trust the safety of the meeting, it seems our fears were well founded. When the conference begins again, if it does, and threats are over, we will send our Minister of Foreign Affairs. We do deeply apologise for any hurt feelings that may have been caused by our deception.

(OOC)

Halberdgardia:

As you own Algeristan, can you post the death toll for the nuclear strike on Basra.

The ICBM was two things: it was, unfortunately, superbly aimed, and, fortunately, relatively low-yield. It hit very close to the exact center of the city, incinerating at least 300,000 people in the explosion alone. The shockwave devastated the areas not disintegrated, and killed tens of thousands more. Those casualties would be further added to by radiation sickness, severe burns, and other injuries.

Initial Casualties

325,000 dead
50,000 critically injured
75,000 moderately/minorly injured

Estimated Total Long-Term Casualties

500,000 dead (from initial blast, fires, shockwave, radiation sickness, etc.)
250,000 with terminal illness (cancer, DNA mutations, future birth defects, etc.)

Captain Miller was starting to scream.

"Should we go INTO the ship or get off of it!"

Basically, the Marines told him to enter the ship instead of going to the Blackhawk, incase the ship took a hit and survived.

***On Board the USS Shaz Bot***

The marines were escorting the remaining deligates to a secure location inside the ship. The room was roughly 60' by 60' and could hold more than 70 people in it. The room was designed to repel any radioactive elements and keep the occupants of the room protected. It also had on the lower corners of it, floation devices so if the ship was destroyed the room could float on top of the ocean to be rescued.

On the flight deck, any and all remaining helecopters were being brought below deck into cargo areas of the carrier.

Official Invitation to all Conference Delegates

Tannenmille will be hosting a conference regarding the future of Algeristan in the city of Strasbourg, France, Deutschefranzösisch Rheinland. All delegates present on the USS Shaz Bot are invited to join us in this meeting. You will be allowed up to 5 armed guards, and on top of that 5 unarmed guards.

OOC:

I wonder how Shabatzodom could have 100% of his civilians inside fallout shelters in his nation in just minutes? I believe that's unrealistic, as there would be millions of people driving around on highways, riding trains, flying in planes, etc. (I may be wrong, Shabazadom might not have any highways, railroads, or planes).

Add that to the millions of people in skycrapers and such. The elevators in skycrapers can only hold so many people. The rest could use the stairs, but it would take more than 30 minutes for people to go down the stairs in a medium sized skycraper due to crowding and the sheer amount of stairs to be climbed.

I figure, maybe 1 hour minimum for all the people in the major cities to go underground. Then the rest outside of the cities are still vulnerable until they arrive into a city or whatever, deal with traffic congestion and such, then find the right fallout shelters (assuming nukes don't hit yet).

A mini-submarine from RMV Axl Rose has been dispatched to the site where the missile aimed at the McKagan Port City had landed, but not detonated. The sub is armored against radiation and will be able to remain in the area with it's 5 man crew for 5 hours.

To prevent any sort of remote detonation of the warhead, a radio, internet, and satellite communications jammer has been set up.

We will have to decline the invitation. We were attempting to be an objective, and neutral, 3rd party in this conflict and in the first conference, but it turns out that trying to be neutral doesn't really matter to terrorists in todays day and age. However, the Pure Socialist Holy Empire will send you 4 crates of free food for your conference for breakfast, lunch and dinner at the conference. We hope the food is to your liking as it is made by the Best Chef throught the Pure Socialist Holy Empire of Shazbotdom.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, Halberdgardian fighters had been scrambled with ASAT weapons mounted on them to shoot down the nuke aimed at Riyadh. One of the fighters climbed to its maximum ceiling, to the point where its engines were about to flame out, and fired. The ASAT weapon raced towards the ICBM.

-Snip-

my nation doesn't have skyscrapers, and most people were at their businesses.

Also, every building across Shazbotdom (both rural and urbal areas) are supposed to have fallout shelters (due to building ordinances) with 4 major enterances, and 4 minor enterances. This makes it able for a quick movement of people into and out of the fallout shelters.

Major roadways (Highways and Interstates) have tunnels under them that double as fallout shelters. Subways are built in a way that they are completely underground and the walkable enterances to them can be sealed shut to make them fallout shelters also.

The ASAT weapon screamed up towards the Algeristani ICBM and hit it dead on. The ICBM detonated in a massive nuclear fireball harmlessly tens of thousands of feet above the Earth.

Aboard it is Secretary of State, Bobman Jones (I just have an urge to name someone that, leave me alone :p ), along with 10 IMAF Security Specialists.

Only 5 of those Security People will leave the airport, armed with Beretta's. The other 5 have P90's and will mainly just walk around the plane all day like they're doing something.

Crates of food were loaded up for a reason that is yet unknown to the pilots. They were just told to deliver them to a specific destination within the next 24 hours. The aircraft took off from Shazbotdom Naval Air Command roughly 2 hours ago and went into a low orbit for it's journey.

The mini-sub moved over the missile wreckage on the bottom of the bay.

The missile was still attached to the now exposed warhead, but was ready to float to the surface.

So, as to not send a radioactive fragment to the surface, the minisub was repositioned on the side of the warhead.

The job now was to assess the situation.

It appeared the warhead itself was damaged.

The small minisub headed back to the Axl Rose.

President Mina Veristek took a quick glance at the latest news reports of the past week. She swept back her brown hair absentmindedly, muttering something to herself.

"This has been a relatively quiet week except for this nuclear attack in the Mid-East by this so called Global-Jihad organization. According to this report, the city struck was Basra, owned by the nation of Halberdgardia. Perhaps Sharina could stand to gain several allies, and possibly something to use aganist Jagada, the only remaining barrier to the re-unification of South America."

With her mind and plan resolved, Mina began composing a comminque to the parties involved with the Mid-East conflict.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Communication to Halberdgardia
From: President Mina Veristek of the Sharina Technocracy.

Greetings.

I have only recently heard of the horrendous attack aganist the city of Basra by this so called "Global Jihad" organization. It is a dark day when terrorists have finally achieved the ability to strike at targets with nuclear weapons or devices. The Sharina Technocracy is fully prepared to pledge resources towards reconstruction of Basra, as well as any additional anti-terrorism equipment or intelligence.

Our two nations have had very little contact in the past, however, I would like to rectify that. The Sharinan people are quite isolationist by nature, thus the minimal amount of contact between it and the outside world. Despite this, I believe that it is necessary for this to change with the growing amounts of threats that do not obey international borders, with complete disregard for nation types, let it be aggressive, passive, or neutral.

Thank you.
~President Mina Veristek

Message Concering "The Covenant"

To: The Holy Empire of Ahlakat
From: Mr Galen Q. Leotardia, Emporer

The Pure Socialist Holy Empire of Shazbotdom does not agree with your organization. We regret to inform you that we shal not, in any way, conform to your way of belief. This nation was built on the ability for everyone to believe what they want. We are a nation of equal rights. Although we do not believe in your way, we still would like to begin trade agreements. A meeting with your "Prophets" would be much appreciated. An exchange of information might prove useful to both our people in this time of International Instability.

I am sorry, Shazbotdom. I personally agree with your compromise. However, the High Prophets of Truth, Mercy, and Regret are very clear and ,above all, strict on the Sacred Laws we are meant to uphold. All who refuse to seek the Great Journey and follow the path of the glorious Forerunner are heretics. In a short while the Sacred Rings will be ignited, and they will burn a path into the divine beyond and all who followed the Great Journey will be ascended. If the High Council of Ahlakat so much as thought over this agreement, the High Prophets would cast us out from the arms of the Holy Covenant. the Sangheili race would all be left behind when the Great Journey begins, and all would be lost.

With Sincere Apologies,

IC:

Queen Rynestone smiled through her old, careworn face. She ran a finger through her long, grey locks of hair while she looked around with her green eyes as she thought. All the troops were almost ready. After no wars in a modest amount of time -what, 20 years? - It took a good deal of quick conditioning to allow troops - and some of their dragons - to adapt to an desert environment. "I'm getting too old for this though."she reminded herself. Being 73 made people hold their breaths for your death. I'll still use whats left of my life while I can. she thought to herself.
General Astraia walked in through the door to the palace throne room. Bowing, her braid of brown hair swung in front of her. "First wave of troops ready to be deployed. Shall I send message of this and see if our troops are needed now?" Astraia said as she stood up, her eyes looking at Rynestone with a neutral expression.
Rynestone nodded. FINALLY we're getting SOMEWHERE.

First line troops are ready for deployment.

"This has been a relatively quiet week except for this nuclear attack in the Mid-East by this so called Global-Jihad organization. According to this report, the city struck was Basra, owned by the nation of Halberdgardia. Perhaps Sharina could stand to gain several allies, and possibly something to use aganist Jagada, the only remaining barrier to the re-unification of South America."

With her mind and plan resolved, Mina began composing a comminque to the parties involved with the Mid-East conflict.

Communication to Halberdgardia
From: President Mina Veristek of the Sharina Technocracy.

Greetings.

I have only recently heard of the horrendous attack aganist the city of Basra by this so called "Global Jihad" organization. It is a dark day when terrorists have finally achieved the ability to strike at targets with nuclear weapons or devices. The Sharina Technocracy is fully prepared to pledge resources towards reconstruction of Basra, as well as any additional anti-terrorism equipment or intelligence.

Our two nations have had very little contact in the past, however, I would like to rectify that. The Sharinan people are quite isolationist by nature, thus the minimal amount of contact between it and the outside world. Despite this, I believe that it is necessary for this to change with the growing amounts of threats that do not obey international borders, with complete disregard for nation types, let it be aggressive, passive, or neutral.

Thank you.

I am sorry, Shazbotdom. I personally agree with your compromise. However, the High Prophets of Truth, Mercy, and Regret are very clear and ,above all, strict on the Sacred Laws we are meant to uphold. All who refuse to seek the Great Journey and follow the path of the glorious Forerunner are heretics. In a short while the Sacred Rings will be ignited, and they will burn a path into the divine beyond and all who followed the Great Journey will be ascended. If the High Council of Ahlakat so much as thought over this agreement, the High Prophets would cast us out from the arms of the Holy Covenant. the Sangheili race would all be left behind when the Great Journey begins, and all would be lost.

Sharina prides itself on its oversized construction machinery. Perhaps we could transport several of these machinery to Basra to rebuild the city after the proper radiation cleanup takes place. Is there anything else you need in terms of resources or such? Please inform me as promptly as possible so that the rebuilding of Basra may begin more expediently.

Thank you.

Re: Aid

Construction machinery would be excellent. In terms of resources, basic building materials for rebuilding the city and suburbian areas, as well as anything you might have to help decontaminate the area, or alleviate the thousands of cases of radiation sickness, would be a tremendous help. Our ally Leafanistan may be able to assist in the decontamination efforts as well.

OOC: Ah yes, that radiation bacteria. Once it's turned into the sludge, transport it all to Saharistan and I'll dump it into Sol again.

OOC: Tan, look back like a page, i've got a K2 Exec Transport plane coming to your country. Did you reply to that?

OOC: Ah yes, that radiation bacteria. Once it's turned into the sludge, transport it all to Saharistan and I'll dump it into Sol again.

OOC: Or ship it to Rovonia and I can do it.

OOC: Tan, look back like a page, i've got a K2 Exec Transport plane coming to your country. Did you reply to that?

OOC: Oh, I guess I didn't. Sorry 'bout that.

IC:

"Unidentified aircraft, this is Delta Foxtrot Romeo X-Ray Niner Three. You have entered into French Airspace. This airspace is currently under lockdown for all but diplomatic and military personnel. State you reasoning for entering French airspace or please expedite flight heading Two Two Four. Repeat, state reasoning for entering French airspace or expedite turn heading Two Two Four. Failure to comply with these commands will result in your termination."

The ZIG pilot turned his craft to follow the plane as it streaked through the skies.

"This is the McKagan delegation for your conferance. Request permission to land."

"This is the McKagan delegation for your conferance. Request permission to land."

"... Confirmed. Code Clearance Blue, you'll be landing at Strasbourg International. Welcome to France, Mr. Delegate. Please enjoy your stay in Germany and France."

The K2 slowed down and began to drop, eventually into a perfect landing position. It touched down, continued down the runway for a few moments, then came to a stop.

Before long the hatch had been popped and IMAF Security Personnel were on the ground to provide security until a convoy could arrive.

Seconds after the hatch on the plane opened, three black Mercedes sedans sped across the runway. They parked in a rough line in front of the plane, and Stormtroopers got out. One Stormtrooper was wearing a blue pauldron on his right shoulder. This Stormtrooper walked up to the delegacy.

"Hello. I am TK-443, the commanding officer in Deutschefranzösisch Rheinland. As I've been told, you're the McKagan delegacy. You will be transported in these cars to Freiburg, Germany. ZIG fighters will be flying above the convoy providing cover, and there will be decoys taking similar routes. One Stormtrooper will be in each vehicle with you, and your armed guards will be in the decoy convoys. Our apologies if this is confusing, but it's precautionary measures established by Provinzführer Mark Goldfetter himself. Even I cannot overrule them."

With that, TK-443 saluted and walked back toward the cars.

The delegate, Bobbert Jones (don't ask) simply nodded.

"Thanks for the high security." was his only comment.

5 of the security personnel got in the other cars, but 5 more stayed behind with the bird.

The K2 was armored, heavily, especially for foreign transport. The beta version of the plane was simply too small to have a security detachment, but the new one was a marvel. The plane even being hardened against nuclear fallout.

"Ok, we're going to need to get this bird off the fucking runway," Sergeant Haiis said to the pilot. "Lets take it that way" he said while pointing to a hangar complex.

4 Guards with P90 SMG's walked on the outside of the plane and just kept an eye out in general.

Leafanistani Troops watched as the fireball grew in on the horizon. They took iodine pills and gave a couple to the foriegn troops there. Soon a helicoptor arrived, odd soldiers only 1.75m tall, opposed to the normal soldier 2.10m tall. They donned suits, picking up a flamethrower like device. Soon, mutant bacteria, meant to absorbition of heavy metals and radiation were hooked up to them. They boarded 5-ton trucks and headed for the poisioned cities.

This was the Harvest Battalion, a group of soldiers affected oddly by the genetic enhancements given at birth. Instead of reaching full height, they graned only a moderate increase, however, their skin tone darkened significantly and they were made of rock hard bone and muscle, stronger than soldiers born on other planets. Later tests showed that an animo acid on one of the plants grown only on Harvest soil reacts poorly with the genetic enhancements. Soon tests showed high immune system strength and they were hardy, hardier than normal Leafanistani soldiers, they resisted radiation poisoning for weeks longer than normal soldiers (see GRISS Firework Reactor accident Log 881) some surviving deadly doses. They were strong, perfect for the task at hand.

Total Harvest Troops dropped off:

85 "Plumbers" with mutant bacteria sprayers and standard suit (resistant up to 17mm rounds, heavy, but their frame can support it)
112 Tesla Troopers (All you RA2 fans scream "FUCK YEAH!") with long range Tesla Directors (electrical devices powered by a mini-tesla generator, 300V at 20 A up to 20m away. Directed by a positron laser and same armour. Base guards.

Tesla Troopers with a few soldiers found a fishing boat, unguarded on the coast. It was C4ed.

**Aboard AC-01 J3D518**

Pilot: "Making final decent. Prepare for re-entry."

The Pilot then changed the pitch of the Pelican to 35 degrees and started to make his decent toward the earth. After a final check of the food supplies the 2 Marines in the back and the Pilot strapped themselves in. As soon as they hit the atmospherer the ship started to shake rapidly. The Pilot was making sure that the ship kept it's 35 degree pitch as it screamed through the atmosphere. It took a total of 10 minutes for the AC-01 to get through the atmosphere. The pilot hit the slow down thrusters to try and slow the Pelican down for it's landing. The Pelican then whipped past a commercial 747, almost clipping it's wing off as it continued to slow down. If they didn't slow down to a decent speed in a few minutes the ship would crash in the easternmost countryside of France. The pilot fired the thrusters at full force, hoping it will slow the ship down. It did. The ship slowed down enough that the AC-01 could reposition itself and fly toward the destination in Germany. It took 3 hours for it to reach the airport that it was set to land at. It sent the authorization code and scanned for the landing pad that it was assigned to.

After locating the landing pad, the AC-01 made a vertical landing and watched as the truck drove up to it. The 2 Marines hit the button that opened the back hatch and then proceded to unload the food-stuff and load it in to the truck provided by the Tannenmille Government.

Captain Angela McGrath, after being abandoned on a Shazbot ship, then picked up and now thrown around the world to Tannenmille territory, was rather jetlagged and upset. She was tired, cranky, and hungry. The MREs didn't fill her at all and she was still hungry. The UH-60 with its two Hind escorts flew to their designated landing zone and began to land. She took off her flight suit and began to don her dress uniform, nudity was common in Leafanistan, and no one on board thought much of it. Though it would give the personnel below a little show if they were watching.

OOC: Probably should have posted this earlier, but whatever...

IC: Kil deplaned from the Gulfstream, boxed in by his Secret Service agents, and immediately made for the Tannenmillian Mercedes sedans. He hopped in the C350 he was shown to, and his Secret Service agents distributed themselves equally between the three vehicles. Kil then sat back as the drivers sped off towards the War Room Bunker in Germany.

OOC: I'm a rabid Halo fan too (I run Demented Puppy Dot Com along with a friend) but can you take this outside.

Captain Angela McGrath stepped off the UH-60 as it took off again, leaving her only 1 escort. She walked up to an airbase officier who was eyeing her blankly. "I hoped you enjoyed the show soldier, get me a ride."

OOC: Classic!

BOOM!

"Shit, left engines out!"

"Right's goin out too!"

"Glide this bitch!

The Osprey turned towards the Leafanistani Airbase.

"This is VAF Skimmer 02, requesting immediate crash landing clearence!"

"Leafistani control, respond!"

OOC: Classic!

"I am the Tactical NI in command here, I have given your clearence and have alerted a fire team to your location. Land at runway Alpha Zulu, repeat Alpha Zulu."

The runway was alight with activity as ammo carts and a light autogyro was wheeled off. A fire surpression team arrived a few metres back, watching as the aircraft slowly limped toward the runway.

The osprey hit the strip, skidding hundreds of yards until it screeched to a stop. The door opened, and the shocked crew stepped out, carrying a wounded man. Fire and Med teams rushed foward, dousing the fires and taking the wounded. The rest of the men were lead away.

Subject: Algeristan's Security

After investigating how the terrorists got into Algeristan the IMN has decided to send in a huge force of ships to patrol the waters around the nation.

Starting imediatly, a fleet of 30 South-sea Class Frigates and 3 Omega Heavy Battleships are going to be moved to the waters off Algeristan.

On top of this 4 Squadrons (IMAF - 16 Planes) of F/A-22H Raptors are being moved to the airport in Medina to assist in securing the airspace.

All of the above is subject to Halberdgardian denial.

Thank you,

(OOC: I'm tired of the whole conference thing at the moment.)

We will also fly combat air patrols around Algeristan.

We welcome your pledge of support, and understand if you cannot pledge any material goods to the effort; seeing as you likely have many domestic issues you wish to contend with, we could not expect you to do so.

There's a reason the game is called "NationStates" and not "TerroristCells". There's nothing to stop you having a terrorist organisation operating inside your country without the knowledge and approval of your government, but you can't just be a terrorist organisation.Why not? We are.

I disagree, you can

The thing is, is that it takes someone with a fair mind, the ability to take losses and play fair. It takes a great deal of RPing skill to pull it off. You have to ignore most of your nations stats, because they are inapplicable to your terror cell.

Mostly terror cells are used for storyline purposes, its been along time since I’ve seen one, though (Terror cells were a huge kick in II about…about 6 or 7 months ago.) But, there’s been some good RP done with terror “nations”

Disclaimer* I’m not saying anyone here who RP’s as a terrorist cell is not perfectly capable of qualifying for the criteria I listed. Basically, don’t take that as an insult, its not.

"Bloody hell!", the Letokian 5-Star General exclaimed, as he watched Basra go up in a nuclear fireball.


He checked the other monitors, where two more missiles were streaking towards other Algeristani cities.


"This must be stopped, or all of Algeristan will be destroyed...Along with the the President!.


The other Top Brass of Letokia had just scrambled into the room, taking their seats at the Command Table.


The General wasted no time...


"Allright, we have nuclear subs within range of Algeristan, monitoring a series of islands owned by the Asiatic Empire of Fliedlice, carrying a payload of tactical nukes. Does anyone here object to their use in this...Fiasco?"


Noone could object, as there were still nukes to be fired, and the Global Jihad controlled all of them...


"Allright, then"...


The General picked up a satphone sitting in front of him, waited for the response from Strategic Command, and recited the launch codes he had memorized so long ago...


After initial launch sequences were confirmed, the General set the phone down.


"God help us...God help us all..."


The Commanders all lowered their heads for a moment of silence...
=========================================================

Meanwhile, back in Algeristan, where President Thomas had just finished meeting and greeting the freed civilians, and the bodygaurd leader had just gotten a call from command...


"Mr. President! Get in the limo! Your life is in grave danger!"

The bodygaurds suddenly dragged and nearly threw the President into the limo, while the other bodygaurds all escorted the freed civilians into the Muesilanian convoy truck parked nearby...

"Get in! Get in! Move it! Move it! Move it!"

The Advisor was thrown in after the President, and the bodygaurds entered the limo...One of the Bodygaurds threw a Muesilanian driver out of his cab and got in it himself..."Sorry, nothing personal! We'll pay for the truck later!"

The limo and the truck full of civilians then pulled out, going back the way they came from, back to the airport...

*Alarms and waring tones inside the ship start going off.


"Captain!"

"Report," responed Jim Hammersmhit, commander of the F.T.S.C. Second Chance.

"We have two nukes inbound for Algeristan, launched by Gobal Jihad!"

"Dear god...get the Chief of Staff on the horn though General Abdeano's Office, and start a recording stream, full spectrums....may god help those souls."

"GhostRider, Fox 0!"

The missile detached and sailed towards the target. It impacted, vaporising the missile.

"Flight 2, engage final bogey!"

"Roger that"

It happened in slow motion, almost. The lead fighter fired. Then, a Katana pilots worst nightmare happened.

The ICBM detonated.

A brillant flash, accompained by a thundercrash.

"Get clear of the shock-wave!"

"Roger that!!!"

The two jets activated thier hypersonic engines and blasted away from the nuclear cloud devolping over the ocean.

OOC: Letokia, did you consciously fire upon Algeristani soil? If so, has that news been made public? If so, then you're going to face some sweet hot justice because Algeristan is now under the command of Halberdgardia, one of my allies.

Thirty-Seven Letokian nuclear subs stationed across the Indian Ocean launched missiles, the thirty-seven tactical nuclear warheads headed towards their target, the ICBM base in Algeristan, and the housings of its' missiles...


(OOC: Can any of you 'experts' tell me how long it should take for them to reach their targets? Oh, and it won't be "justice", because it was in self-defense...We are merely preventing the terrorists from destroying Algeristan and harming other nations.)

"General Abdeano!"

"Yes major?"

"We have 37 sub-launched nukes headed for a location in Algeristan."

"Who were they launched by?"

"Letokia sir, the target is an ICBM base in Algeristan."

"Ok, tell the Prometheus to get in range of Algeristan. If the shit hits the fan tell them to bring rail-guns systems online and hot."

"Yes sir!"

Saharistan, 2340 hrs
"Thirty-seven missile signatures heading towards Algeristan, sir. Nukes."

Wing Commander Dekard Logan looked at the screen before him, plotting the missiles' current position and intended targets based on current intel. Tannenmille had no missile-defense in Saharistan, save for an elite fighter crew.

"Well, you know what you're doing. Move Black ZIG Squadron into intercept vectors on as many missiles as you can, we're going to have some fireworks tonight."

Klaxons blared as Tannenmillians donned pitch black ZIG fighter suits and helmets, powering up their surprisingly black ZIG fighters. Soon 28 black ZIGs were in the air, scrambling as fast as possible to intercept and destroy the tacnukes.


----

Skies over the Indian Ocean, 0000 hrs
The Black "Doomsday Prophecy" ZIG Squadron was a specialty squadron of just two-hundred pilots. Their ZIGs were specially refitted Valcan ZIGs painted black and refitted with superfast engines. They were a kamikaze group, armed to the teeth with explosives and chemical weapons, although those weapons arrays were ditched to gain precious speed for this mission. The 28 ZIGs launched would attempt to bring down as many missiles as they could by "brake-checking" them.

"This is Black Leader, all pilots report in."

"Black 1."
"Black 2."
"Black 3."
"Black 4."
"Black 5."
"Black 6."

"Bravo Black Leader."
"Bravo Black 1."

....

"Delta Black 6."

"Okay boys, contact. Missiles twelve, coming in cold. Delta Crew, you take the group at one, Charlie two, Bravo eleven and Black twelve."

A resonance of "Targets acquired." rang over the radio channels.

"Affirmative. Increasing speed, all pilots close in on your marks. Increase speed."

Heat from the missiles washed over the cockpits of the ZIGs as the pilots streaked towards their targets.

As was the traditional death call of the Black Doomsday Prophets, the Tannenmillian Air Force channel was filled with "For Great Justice" and then static.


OOC: Yes, it's unrealistic but I spent the last twenty minutes coming up with the idea and I think it's cool. I'll say 12 of the missiles were destroyed, pending confirmation by Letokia or whats-his-name, but I think anywhere from 7-12 sounds reasonable. The rest of the Doomsday Prophets missed their marks and collided / broke off and returned to Saharistan.

(OOC: Okay, i'll say....7 missiles got toasted and fell into the ocean, harmless.)


The General cursed under his breath.

"Little shits..."

The General pounded his fists on the desk..

(OOC: By the way, the missiles won't do much damage beyond the area of the missile base. They are all in the single-digit kiloton range, so even the fallout won't drift that far.....Plus, Algeristan is mountainous, which will help contain the fallout.)

(OOC: Okay...Sounds good.


30 1-9 kiloton nukes should be enough to take out the missile base...

Should I wait for Global Jihad to take losses, or just screw it and have the missiles hit?)

Halberdgardia is in command of Algeristan now and as such you'll have to wait for him to see all this. Which is why I sent up the Doomsday Prophets in the first place, the SWC is at war with Global Jihad.

The cars arrived at the airport and all of them poured out of the cars...The investigators, bodygaurds, civilians, the President and the Advisor, all hurried into the passenger jet.....The bodies had allready been locked in the fridge plane, and all the food was offloaded from the cargo plane before they got there, during the trip from the airport to the camp...The limousine and chase car were stowed, and the pilots began to take off.


"I can't believe we launched!"


"We had no choice, Mr. President, the Global Jihadis were going to launch at all their enemies, and we can't be too sure who they consider enemies..."


"What about Algeristanis?"


"Don't worry, there won't be many casualties, as we're launching small tactical missiles, and the mountains will help contain any radiation..."


"*Sigh*"


The President laid back in his seat, as the passenger jet took off from the airport...

The Leafanistani Detachment was rather far away from the missile base, however, they still took heavy precautions. Donned radiation suits, distributed iodine pills and started to seal up the tents. The commander newly arrived from Saharistan Colonel Jessica Zhang was in a commlink meeting between FleetCom, Missile Command, The National Academy of Atomic Science, and the Tactical N.I.

Col JZ: "And that is our intelligence report 30 1-9 kiloton yeild nukes, we've already experienced fallout here from the other nukes but its minimal thanks to the sludge you got all around."

NAAS: "However with that many nukes the power amplifies, I'm afraid younger nations don't understand, when the dust and water go up in nuclear fire, they have to come down. These nukes when placed together will do more damage than a 1 megaton nuke. Based on current wind conditions they will miss your firebase by 3 kilometers but we are still looking at a 500 kilometer on the major axis for the fallout area. The minor axis due to heavy wind conditions will only be about 15 kilometers"

T.N.I.: "That translates to an oval 500 kilometers long, with the center at ground zero and the oval is also 15 kilometers wide."

FleetCom: "I'll order the fleet around the fallout then, tell everyone to suit up, turn on the NBC systems."

MissileCommand: "Our response will be minimal, we can't do anything, they will strike in approximately 15 minutes, we suggest look away, close your eyes, and wear sunglasses for a while."

Col JZ: "Thank you all for your suggestions during this crisis, and may Deus help us all."

FleetCom: "Acknowledged"

MissileCommand: "Acknowledged"

NAAS: "Acknowledged, we wish you luck there."

The CommLink terminated. The Colonel sighed, she was probably going to get cancer if everyone was so trigger happy. She wondered if everyone understood the idea behind fallout and magnification of nuclear power when nukes were placed close together.

The Cube, Baghdad, Riberao Preto, Nuclear Missile Launch+5 minutes

"SIR! Nuclear missiles launched at Algeristan, sir!"

General Randall Laurenzi, CINCSAR, who had just entered the Cube, snapped around to face the man.

"What?! Who fired them? What yield?"

"We're reading that they were tactical nukes, launched by a nation called Letokia, yield of approximately one to nine kilotons."

"Are they out of their fucking minds?! I swear to God, they'll be sorry they fucked with our territory..."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Tannenmillian pilots were both valiant and skilled, but even their expertise and daring could not stop all the missiles. The remaining missiles slammed into the missile bases, wiping them clean off the face of the Earth. Once again, Algeristanis across the country cowered at the sight of more mushroom clouds in the skies above their country.

Re: Missile Launch

I'd like to know just what the fuck you were thinking with your latest action. Who gave you the authority to launch your missiles? You should have consulted with me first; I am acting commander and authority in Algeristan. Low-yield missiles or not, that's still a fuckload of radiation you just unleashed on sovereign Halberdgardian territory. Conventional bombing runs would have worked just as well, without the radiation. You're lucky I don't recommend to MILCOM a full nuclear retaliation on your country. I've got enough to fucking deal with with Global Jihad and the reconstruction of Basra -- which, if you didn't notice, got hit full on with an ICBM -- to have to deal with complete idiots like you running around launching nukes at whatever the hell you feel like. I demand a full withdrawal of all Letokian forces from the region and a formal apology from your government, or you will be considered a hostile nation. Get the fuck out of my country.

[OOC: No, I'm not OOCly pissed at you, Letokia, but ICly, you have to imagine these guys wouldn't be too happy at what just happened.]

Radiation and fallout flooded nearly half the island. The combined yeild threw tons and tons of ash into the air. Poisoned black rain fell on the innocent souls as they ran, Leafanistani Ambulances were flooded with patients, vomiting, scratching, their skin blackened, eyes melted with heat. Even the msot expereinced doctors couldn't deal with it. Leafanistan ordered a full medical unit be deployed, 250 Doctors, 600 nurses, and 60 more Humvees Ambulances were sent from a port in Saharistan, ETA 3 Days.

To: Leafanistani Medical Corps Command
From: General Randall Laurenzi, CINCSAR, SARCOM

I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank you and your brave men and women who are heading into Algeristan to assist us in treating victims of radiation sickness from the latest nuclear attacks. Our own medical staff is overwhelmed with victims, and there would be no way for us to cope with the flow of victims alone. We thank you again for your invaluable assistance, which, in my opinion, is befitting for a true friend and ally of the Democratic Republic of Halberdgardia.

Respectfully,

At this moment Leafanistan is calling on all nations to send medical help, we've already mobilized a massive number of doctors and nurses but we still need more.

Another 500 doctors and 1300 nurses have been tapped from Leafanistani hospitals with few patients, they are being flown in on Airbus SuperJumboJets.

"Sir, nuclear missiles inbound on Algeristan," Airman Samuel P. Dodgers announced.
"Oh, no," Colonels Joe and John Rogers, brothers, sighed.

Major General Kyle Martin got off the phone with the President, Fred McGriff.

Then the phone rang again. It was Joe this time. Martin told Joe that the President had authorized a deployment of a company of infantry (250 men) to Algeristan, along with a M*A*S*H unit, 2 F-15C fighters, 2 EC-135 nuclear spotters that could efficiently command the entire nuclear forces of several countries, 4 E-10A's, 6-crew AWACS, JSTARS, ASW, ASuW, Recon, jamming, and ELINT/SIGINT gathering aircraft.

Joe told him about the bombs.

The phone slipped from Martin's hand as he thought about the consequences. "Oh my word," he kept repeating.

OOC: The reason I'm able to ship weapons now was that we just cleared a major problem back home.

OOC: Did GD launch more nukes or what?

"Sir, they spaleshed olny 7 nukes, 30 are still inbound."

"Ok, CIC bring the railguns online, try and splash as many as you can before they are out of range," commaned Major Martin Balaka, commander of the F.T.S.C. Prometheus.

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


After opening up, we hit 10 nukes but the other 20 are still inbound and they are out of our range till further notice. Also, Flightopia is sending 3 Airbus A3800 will doctors and 3 C-5s with medical supplies to Algeristan, ETE, 18 hours (OCC:NS hours so like 1 or 2 real time). I wish there was more I could do. My nation extend it's utmost sympahy and sorrow for the loss of life in the first ICBM attack, may no more blood be spilled with nukes.

General Joe Abdeano
-Commander of the Flightopian Space Corps

Dodgers yelled, "Looks like some were shot down, but, oh, no, we have some impacts! Nuclear explosins, sir. nuclear explosions."

Joe and John called te direct line to President McGriff:

"What?" McGriff answered.
"Sir, Colonel Joe Rogers, Sir. We have nuclear explosions in Algeristan."
"Oh, no. Send 3 more M*A*S*H units. And radiation suits. Bring extra for them."
"Yes, sir, on it, sir."

"Martin was yelling at the crewmen of the EC-135's. "Get a move on!"

He juped in the first one as it took off for an orbit near Algeristan. Joe and John were flying combat air patrol for them in the pair of F-15C's sent, and 4 F-16C's ans 2 more F-15C's took off with them. C-130's and 747-400's loaded with troops, supplies, medical equipment, and radiation suits were readied for takeoff upon Halberdgardian confirmation of deployment. The President and other leaders were taken to Green Mountain, a facility designed to withstand even several simultaneous nuclear blasts. HH-60G Pave Hawk search and rescue aircraft were readied for deployment. And even an old C-47 was brought back to life for fire containment. The deployment of these were resting on Halberdgardian confirmation of deployment. An old, abandoned airfield was found that was nowhere near enough to be harmed by nukes and very little fallout was designated as the base of operations for the group.

IC:
Joe Rogers was flying around while the EC-135's, E-10A's, and the other fighters were orbits and the other aircraft landed on the airstrip. The C-47 was immediately dispatched to look for any fires.

Joe was nearing one of the blast sites when he saw another fighter near the edge of the crater. He looked for identification on the national markings, but he couldn't see them from his position. He asked over the radio, "Unidentified aircraft, what is your country and intentions?"

OOC: Anyone can claim this aircraft. I don't mind.

OOC: We were just going to have the air craft orbit nearby until they got low on fuel and returned to Steinbrech or you decided to allow us to base.

OOC: Bit late now. TG for you, McKagan, and Leafanistan.

Anybody claim that aircraft yet?

I will, here in a bit. Eating ice cream.

We are requesting to place the MASH units wherever needed by these nations, and we are giving 1,330 radiation suits (that's all the extra we could pack in) to Halberdgardian and other forces.

Accept this one this time, then (please???)! We are prepared to allow Halberdgardia to lease an EC-135. The plane will cost you just one million dollars a year given to us, and we will stop accepting if it gets to full purchase price (236.7 million dollars). If it goes down, you foot the bill. We allow you to set the makeup of the crews, but at last 10% must be Steinbrechian. Other than that, you can have McKagani (s.p.?), Leafanistani, Velkyan, or anyone else you can think of.

In other news, the Democratic Republic of Halberdgardia is pleased to announce that it has signed a new alliance with the up-and-coming nation of Steinbrech. The treaty's terms have been released to the public, and are listed below:

[Treaty of Algeristan]
Alliance between the Democratic Republic of Halberdgardia and the Republic of Steinbrech

[Article I:]
Both parties agree to host dual embassies in each other's countries. Both embassies are to follow the diplomatic laws encoded by this treaty, as outlined in Article II. These embassies are to be considered national territory of the owner of the embassy, and any attack on said embassy will be considered an act of war.

[Article II:]
The laws on embassies encoded by this treaty are as follows:


The amount of armed guards, including professional soldiers, are to be from zero to one-hundred men, with whatever arms thought necessary by the client nation.
Five soft-skinned combat vehicles are allowed, including armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles. A single tough-skinned vehicle is allowed, including a main battle tank.
The flag of the client nation is to fly no matter what reason, including policy towards certain political groups inside the host nation. It is national territory of the client nation, and thus they have the right to any flag.

[Article III:]
Both nations are to be aligned not only with a diplomatic allegiance, including moral support, but through a treaty of non-aggression; if either party is to undertake any hostile action against the other, the alliance and all its terms are to be considered null and void. Moreover, should a third party threaten either nation, the other nation not affected by the third nation should not align itself with the third nation, even if an alliance exists between the two parties. Instead, it should be aligned with the ally specified by this treaty, or remain neutral in any conflict which may arise.

[Article IV:]
Upon the ratification of this treaty, both nations agree to a full military pact. Both nations are obliged to offer some form of military aid if a scenario develops in which one of the signatories of this treaty is attacked by a third-party nation. If the party is allied to the third-party nation, Article III applies.

[Article V:]
This treaty does not allow the free construction of military bases. In order to fulfill the request for a base, a separate treaty must be drawn by either party. Noncompliance with this will result in a denial of building privileges.

[Conclusions:]
This treaty shall be immediately put into effect upon the confirmation of Steinbrech.

I will, here in a bit. Eating ice cream.

How long does it take? (lol)

Umm,

Isn't there a bunch of tactical uclear weapons raining down on Algeristan?

"This is ZIG-421, flying routine patrols over Algeristan. Flying out of Saharistan, Tannenmillian. I should ask you likewise."

"They're our allies, right?" Joe asked himself. He remembered and decideed to respond.
"This is a Steinbrechian aircraft, flying from Diddly Drop Airfeild, to the far west of where we are now. I am flying to make sure the areas around the blasts are free of hostiles and see how many people need help."

We are requesting to place the MASH units wherever needed by these nations, and we are giving 1,330 radiation suits (that's all the extra we could pack in) to Halberdgardian and other forces.

Accept this one this time, then (please???)! We are prepared to allow Halberdgardia to lease an EC-135.

From: General Randall Laurenzi

Authorization to deploy MASH units as you see fit granted. Your offer of radiation suits is graciously accepted. Regarding the EC-135, however, we do not believe we require its services at this time, and so we must politely decline. However, you could inquire with other nations present in the country as to whether or not they could use it.

"Sir, we thank you for letting us help. The EC-135 offer is open to any nation that has a nuclear threat."
COLONEL JOE ROGERS, F-15C, THE FORMER BASRA, ALGERISTAN

OOC: What's going on?

OOC: How many missiles are still inbound? We will reroute more Katanas, they can there in minutes (Hypersonic).

OOC: Whaddaya mean, what's going on? McKagan

I count about 20-25 missiles still coming, with 7 lost and the rest hit. (They should have all hit by now, even in RL time)

OOC: Did Global Jihad REALLY fire more missiles, if so, where from? Or did people just say he did? Or does everyone regret to realize all the originally fired missiles were shot down?

Who's got people in Algeristan, what's the current threats?

With 6 Kantana flights, I can eliminate 24 missiles, maybe more, but I need to know where they are.

OOC: I don't believe Jihad never fired any more missiles, outside of the ones that we intercepted, so all the cities that were "hit" are still there.

2 carrier battlegroups and a RDF division are my forces in Algeristan, along with 12 Katana Anti-Missile Aicraft flying routine patrol. A recon sat. is also monitering the situation.

OOC: Can we stop pretending we're under attack?

OOC: Did Global Jihad REALLY fire more missiles, if so, where from? Or did people just say he did? Or does everyone regret to realize all the originally fired missiles were shot down?

Who's got people in Algeristan, what's the current threats?

You, Leafanistan, Halberdgardia, myself, and several other nations have troops there. Mine are in the back, replacing yours so you can put front-liners at the front.

I believe what happened was more missiles were fired.

Yes the first were shot down, but he may have meant 3 missiles at each city.

The current threats are from nuclear radiation, terror cells on a war of attrition and suicide, and the rest of the nukes. INCOMING!!!

And no, we can't stop yet.

OOC: OK, here's the deal. We're saying all the Algeristani ICBMs that were launched by Global Jihad were intercepted/disabled, except the one that hit Basra. The new nukes were low-yield tacticals from Letokia, who wanted to take out the Algeristani ICBM launch sites. He launched 30, Tannenmille intercepted 7, and the remaining ones hit the sites, effectively destroying the remaining Algeristani nukes, but also spreading a TON of radiation across Algeristan. Laurenzi's sent a message to them bitching 'em out over that fiasco, but there's been no response yet. There are no more nukes now, just a hell of a lot of radiation.

OOC: I know

IC:

-Message from Velkyan Diplomatic Command-

We would like to propose an alliance with McKagen and all of it's allies.

-D-Com Out-

OK I'm fine with that. All of you.

OOC: And why could'nt we use a conventional air strike to destory the ICBMs? I suggest Leto gets the boot for screwing us up.

OOC: I've only got 5000 troops in the country anyway, the only ones that were really "frontline" were the ones that went to the nuclear facility that will be understood as leaving before the whole nukeage thingy happened. I also thought that Medina (my base) was far enough from that place, so could anyone tell me how much radiation I should be dealing with right now?

OOC: And why could'nt we use a conventional air strike to destory the ICBMs? I suggest Leo gets the boot.

OOC: Laurenzi asked the same question. And Letokia didn't even consult me first. Rather than boot him, I had Laurenzi demand he withdraws all forces from Algeristan and issue a formal apology, or I consider him hostile and probably declare war. From there, the SWC guys and I can pull another Saharistan (remember "rivers of fire," McKagan? ;)).

McKagan- You said the nuke went down in the bay. You should be experiencing several rads. Not enough for too much of a problem, but enough that you might want to issue large amounts of sunscreen to all those in and around the base.

McKagan- You said the nuke went down in the bay. You should be experiencing several rads. Not enough for too much of a problem, but enough that you might want to issue large amounts of sunscreen to all those in and around the base.

Yeah, i've got a minisub on that too, so after a while I'll make a comment of that nuke being defused.

I say that we all go and n00k everyone.

OOC: Let's just ignore him and the fact that he has bathed the entire nation in radiation, possibly killing our troops. If we don't ignore, I'll help you take him down.

Laurenzi's sent a message to them bitching 'em out over that fiasco, but there's been no response yet. There are no more nukes now, just a hell of a lot of radiation.

I was also able to intersept 10 of those nukes.


"Sir, they spaleshed olny 7 nukes, 30 are still inbound."

"Ok, CIC bring the railguns online, try and splash as many as you can before they are out of range," commaned Major Martin Balaka, commander of the F.T.S.C. Prometheus.

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


After opening up, we hit 10 nukes but the other 20 are still inbound and they are out of our range till further notice. Also, Flightopia is sending 3 Airbus A3800 will doctors and 3 C-5s with medical supplies to Algeristan, ETE, 18 hours (OCC:NS hours so like 1 or 2 real time). I wish there was more I could do. My nation extend it's utmost sympahy and sorrow for the loss of life in the first ICBM attack, may no more blood be spilled with nukes.

I say we n00k everyone. (lol)

(remember "rivers of fire," McKagan? ;)).

YES!

I want to use that tactic again!

I've actually got a variant of my high altitude bomber designed just for that, and a new version of napalm that can burn under water for a few hours.

Beware, bitches, someone is gonna get burned if you fuck with IMAF! :p

I was also able to intersept 10 of those nukes.

I nailed the other 20.

Hey, ya'll, where'd the RPing go?

OOC: Due to the lack of activity from Global Jihad, I say we declare an end to hostilities in Algeristan and declare it a reconstruction zone, much like we did after the Saharistan War. Leaf's on vacation, but we can just say the radiation's going down thanks to his bacteria, and then we can have Tannenmille ship it off. After that, we can deal with Letokia, depending on what his response is. But all y'alls who have troops: you can start withdrawing them now if you want, and bring in engineers, medics, etc., to help rebuild the country. I think my 100,000 troops ought to be sufficient for security purposes.

Most of my 5000 troops are just to show that we're there, considering we do hold a small province, and the majority of engineering anyway.

Hey, can I ship some of the bioshit off to the sun? I have a spacefleet too, y'know... :p

We are moving the 1st RDF Engneering divison to oversee conconsturction in the south. Also, is anyone going to take Algeristan as a puppet?

I agree with Halberdgardia. The M*A*S*H units will stay for the moment, but the other units will go home.

Fred McGriff has expressed wishes to meet with delegates from all of the nations involved. He also wants the conference to include all personnel that played a major part (named).

Joe Rogers wishes to stay in the country with his F-15 for a while.

The C-47 will be brought back to Steinbrech for a refit, then, depending on your wishes, will possibly come back to help deal with the radiological and psychological threats.

I say we, for the moment, split the country among ourselves. All nations participating can have a part. Then, the parts unite as an ally to us all and a small military, similiar to Germany after WWII.

The island is under the control of the SWC/SATA.

Hal gets most of it, Leafanistan and I both have port citys.

Thank you for coming. Have a nice day. I agree, McKagan. We all played a part, but you guys did a lot of the work. Thank you.

OOC: Well, you do have Medina to watch, so your 5,000 can stay. And yes, you may ship some of the "bioshit," as you so eloquently put it, off-planet, though Tannenmille might not be happy you're stealing his shipping business. :p

We are moving the 1st RDF Engneering divison to oversee conconsturction in the south. Also, is anyone going to take Algeristan as a puppet?

OOC: *raises hand* I'm taking all of Algeristan except two port cities; Medina is going to McKagan, and an as-yet-unspecified port is going to Leafanistan.

OOC: MASH/HAZMAT/engineering units can stay to help rebuild this mess of a country, but I'd like it if the foreign troops (besides Leaf and McKagan) start withdrawing.

Joe Rogers can float around up there for awhile, provided he doesn't start blowing a bunch of stuff up. :p

Hey, Tan will get his ass kicked if he comes after me! My 60, 200m long ships are better than his.... *looks at picture of Star Destroyer overhead*

Ok then, so maybe i'll just ship a FEW thousand liters off planet. :p

Anyway, who gets what in the nation was already decided after the "huge naval battle" between Leafanistan, me, Hal, and Fishy.

Yes, HUGE I say. He lost half his navy and I lost 5 people. :p

Haha, I'm fine with someone else shipping some off, less "bioshit" for my engineers to have to handle. :p

Ok, well it seems that thing have calmed down, I will leave my doctors to help with the injured, but, I'm moving my two ships back to LEO, if you need anything let me know, I can send one of my heavy-cruisers to drop troops if needed.

Ooc: Jkii?

Ooc: Jkii?

OOC:If I'm not mistaken that'll be Jedi Knight 2.

"Please noble Jedis! Not in the faces!"

Joe won't blow stuff up. He's a nice guy. The C-47 will come back in just a sec, oh, here he is. OK.

Re: Missile Launch

I'd like to know just what the fuck you were thinking with your latest action. Who gave you the authority to launch your missiles? You should have consulted with me first; I am acting commander and authority in Algeristan. Low-yield missiles or not, that's still a fuckload of radiation you just unleashed on sovereign Halberdgardian territory. Conventional bombing runs would have worked just as well, without the radiation. You're lucky I don't recommend to MILCOM a full nuclear retaliation on your country. I've got enough to fucking deal with with Global Jihad and the reconstruction of Basra -- which, if you didn't notice, got hit full on with an ICBM -- to have to deal with complete idiots like you running around launching nukes at whatever the hell you feel like. I demand a full withdrawal of all Letokian forces from the region and a formal apology from your government, or you will be considered a hostile nation. Get the fuck out of my country.

[OOC: No, I'm not OOCly pissed at you, Letokia, but ICly, you have to imagine these guys wouldn't be too happy at what just happened.]


The General answered the phone...


"Sir, I understand your anger, but the preemptive strike was necessary to ensure the safety of both Algeristan, Letokia, and your nation as well. Our intelligence reports that Global Jihad had launched 8 ICBMs and were prepared to launch approximately 37 more...

We responded with 37 tactical nukes targeted specifically at the missile base itself, and the housings of the ICBMs. During flight, the number of tacnukes were reduced in number to approximately twenty-seven to seventeen, we're not sure yet, reports are still rolling in.

We did not have time for a conventional bombing run, as none of our carriers were in the area, and this was the quickest way to destroy as many ICBMs before launch as possible.

Our President is just about out of Algeristani airspace as we speak, and we will not be coming back as long as Halberdgardia occupies Algeristan.....Letokia will formally apologize, but will still maintain that the move was in self-defense, albeit hastily undertaken.


Have a good day."


The General hangs up the phone and paces around the command table.

That bastard has caused us 17,000 cases of Radiation sickness in the civilian population, and 3,400 deaths already from radiation sickness. Our soldiers hardy as they are, 47 have suffered radiation sickness, and 15 on an advanced scouting party weren't reached in time. Internal Hemorraging combined with severe burns and 4 died when a Hummer was flipped by the blast wave and landed on a sharp rock. With the amount of painkiller and stim packs we found around the bodies and the blood trail, we can surmise they died rather painfully and tried to get to the vehicle's radio that was blown away from by the blast wave. There is already a major scandal, the public calls for blood. Many in the Senate favor repreations, some favor war, others favor doing nothing. With High Father on holiday in an unknown location, and the Senate deadlocked we are powerless. However as a treaty bound ally we'll support whatever actions you take.

We're currently unsure what's going to go down. I mean, it was good that the Letokians apologized, but it doesn't change what they did. And, as a result of their attack, our government has completely rearranged our policy regarding the use of weapons of mass destruction. A copy of that new doctrine is attached to this message (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=9441386&postcount=2). If we're ever attacked again, the perpetrator will be in a world of hurt real fast. We're going to keep a close eye on Letokia for now, but no overt actions will be taken, beyond posturing back up to DEFCON 1. We had postured down to DEFCON 3 before this; now, with tensions appearing to be on the rise, we're posturing back up to DEFCON 1. Maybe a little regime change or strategic sabotage of their nuclear facilities wouldn't be a bad idea.

Official Communique: Holy Group of Global Jihad

To: Halberdgardia

In the name of Allah, the most merciful.

Global Jihad was decalred a Holy War against the heathen, satanic crusader tyranny of Halberdgardia.

May ALL Halberdgardian citizens listen to our demands, for they will be the ones who can save their nation from defeat.

Global Jihad will turn your cities into green crators one by one, until your cities are no more!

If you want to live and avoid the destruction of your nation, then you shall meet these just demands:

1.) President Kir Kanos is to resign and to leave Halberdgardia.

2.) Kir Kanos will be tried at an international court for war crimes, genocide and crimes against humanity.

3.) Halberdgardia give TOTAL independence to ALL of it's colonies in Saharistan and Rovonia/Coregem.

Failure to meet these demands will result in a just display of force against you by our brave fighters.

Leader of Global Jihad

"Welcome to Channel 6 Late Night News, News for Letokia....The Secretary of State has released a statement regarding the shocking nuclear incident yesterday....He says that "The government apologizes for the hastily undertaken defensive actions carried out by the Letokian Military" and that "The General in charge of the operation sends his sincere condolensces to anyone harmed by the blasts, but also insists that the action was a necessary reaction to the terrorists who at the time posessed devastating Thermonuclear weaponry that could've been projected throughout the world in a matter of hours.". The statement continued on to say that "General Whetherby will make sure the nations' military is not caught off gaurd and lacking in options again"...


That statement was confirmed this morning when the General announced a state of High Alert existed within the entire conventional military structure of Letokia....More on this turn of events after these commercials"

[OOC: Is it too late to join this war?]

Well, I believe so. However, I don't doubt that the Global Jihad will be back at some point.

Leafanistani National News Network

"Following the nuclear disaster and the death of 15 of our brave soldiers and thousands of innocent civilians the Senate and even High Father himself have called for action. In a speech today, High Father blasted the Letokians for their brash actions."

*cut to speech, a podium with an animated Leafanistani Flag behind it*

"...Why did Letokia respond like that? Does it not know that we can respond cleanly? We have tungsten needles in orbit, we could have done it, Halberdgardia and McKagan had the same capability. We also could have lead a conventional assualt. Surely the Letokians believe that we can fend for ourselves, yet they interfered, poorly. Thousands are now dead and dying of radiation poisoning the blast related illnesses and injuries. So today..."

*cuts back to newsroom*

"The Senate seems to be hours away from declaring a state of war or at least demand something in return. Already military leaders have issued martial law throughout the Leafanistani port of Khaf Amroug and the nearby mountains to help contain the looting after the fallout passed over the town. And Admiral Angela McGrath has said that any Letokian vessel found near our waters would be escorted out."

"A terrible situation Trish, now back to Sam's hard hitting story, "Kittens are cute, but can they kill?"

[OOC: BUMP for my above edit.]

OOC: Has everyone lost interest in this thread and the whole situatuation in Algeristan? It seems like they have. I am also on their side, there is nothing happening, and if there is, it is just not interesting.

I think this thread is dead.

OOC: Well, I've been working like mad on my new Reference Thread, so that would explain my inactivity. But, yeah, things are quiet here, since GJ hasn't come back. I'll probably post later about the progress of the decontamination and reconstruction efforts, and those nations here who are withdrawing their troops should probably post progress on that when they start.

OOC: No clue where Global Jihad went anyways.

"A massive amount of radiation sickness medical units trained, large amounts of radiation suits sent, several countries participating, all these efforts were still not enough to save 3500 mainly Algeristani people from dieing. 17,000 people became sick at our last numbers, and many more exposed. Here's Leroy Brown on the spot."

I'm impressed, you guys got guts. I mean, 2 wars on the same thread!?! This is great! I'll probably be involved. (go figure) We'll send help any way we can. Seeing as our military is larger now, we can actually send a small group to the front lines.
