No clue in real life - whenever you want. But, all foreign forces would arrive to Haven or to me [excepting Mekugi, since he came a long time ago] in the month of August, and would begin to ship to the front at around the beginning of September. September is when Ishme-Dagan happens. It's currently August everywhere, except Weigar, which will turn into August once I get the damn RP up. :P

SafeHaven, do you have any large calibre howitzers, or better yet, long artillery bores? If so, you should use it to fire a huge and fast penetrator into the side armour of the Morrigan; around the front. It's going to take multiple shots to kill everyone inside, but I want the Morrigan knocked out! I'm bored, so I want to work on the next variant which will be an upgrade on the one Morrigan left, and I need to know how this Morrigan dies exactly!

Is there something else I can do besides Aurillac? I haven't posted in like eight pages, and I think I am getting rusty.... :(

Never have i seen so much deterimination in one nation to tell others how to kill the biggest, baddest, and scariest tank on the field. :D

I do have my KAGs which are 175mm, but by now the Morrigan should be dieing. Its taken hundreds of hits from 155mm ETC guns and just as many hits from ATGM's and LOSATs. Its secondary armament turrets, treads, exc should be in bad shape by now. Anyway, I'll find a way to kill it in my next post.


H&K, respond to this, I just did it without the map-

Spizania, you realize that 900km west of my Denmark(IN rl North) would put you almost right on top of Norway?

OOC: Sorry, just put me 900km from Denmark in the open sea

Like, about where England would be? If I had an England.

Yeah
EDIT: Im designing a new mass production MBT that will be cheap to make that will cover my inevitably massive losses of AFVs

I'll get the Viusbi preperation post up soon - you still need to get yours up!

I'll get the Viusbi preperation post up soon - you still need to get yours up!

I did! It was part of the response to the Aurillac bombing. There are definatly lines about the airlifts and new vehicles in it!

SH2 could you edit in something that wraps up our first engagement over Aurallic so I can begin more activity there? Thanks. :)

Edit:
Nvm

Ya I know, my fighters were 430 miles from the Danish coast when they fired, putting your bombers 580 miles away. As for your fighters, I don't know what you did witht hem , I assumed they would tag along and provide an escort, if not then o well, more missiles for the bombers.


SU, I'll get that tonight.

Please take note, that the 12th Army, which I am sending to help SafeHaven. Has been increased to 500k men. Due that I actually took time out to organize my military. Navy included--now I just got the Sky Force.

Could I request that the 12th be sent to Sarcanza to fight with the Sarcanzans? They could go through Zarbia.

Spizania, what kind of AA missiles are you using?

Also, how are your bombers carrying AA missiles when they are already carrying 50 missiles that weigh over 2,000 pounds each? And I thought you said your fighters weren't with your bombers? And intercepting AA missiles moving at mach 7 with other AA missiles, as far as I know, is something you can't exactly do, now I may be wrong, Mac or somebody with more technical expertise can correct me if I am but as far as I know it isn't exactly something you can do. These are relatively small missiles, not large cruise missiles.


Do you have a link to your bomber?

SafeHaven-- Um...sure if only Zarbia wasn't landlocked and surronded by either inactives or Mac himself.

You can land in Haven and move through Zarbia, We've been arming the Sarcanzans that way since the beggining.

Um sure, if you want. Not sure how effective I'll be at saving them.

Could you please give me a briefing on their situtation. How much of Sarcanzia does Mac control, are they fighting their last battle? What is their general situtation?

Please, thanks.

Do you have a link to your bomber?

I'm pretty sure he is using my SuB-4 Super Hurricane Heavy Supersonic Strategic Bombers, each capable of carrying 270,000 kg at maximum (If you want a link to it, just go to my storefront link in my sig and check out the bomber section which has the two bombers me and him use). So he is using a total of 100,000 lbs, which converts to around 50,000 kg of payload. As for AA missiles, its not impossible to intercept missiles going at Mach 7. It just has to have a fire-solution/control system capable of computing that kind of speeds and hitting them. But like all anti-missile attacks, some missiles will slip through.

Sarcanza is entirely free, they defeated the last Macabean force in Sarcanza in Marsa Bruth after a bloody battle that took about a month. They are well armed, equipped with modern equipment by me through Zarbia. Now though, a Macabean army is starting to advance into Sarcanza through something which is called the Gates of Hell, but that battle is just barely starting up now. The thing the Sarcanzans lack the most is air support so you might want to bring some of your own with your.

The entire Imperial army [all two divisions + some security brigades] were annihalated at the Battle of Marsa Bruth. Right now there's about two armoured divisions and three mechanised divisions breaking through into Sarcanza proper to quell the rebellion at the Battle of the Hell's Gate, which is something I need to get a new post on - so much posting, so little drive to do so. Most of the army in the East is not entering Zarbia to crush Havenic supply lines there, although we're caught up at the Battle of La Gloria - Zarbia hasn't posted in a while to that thread.

I know its not impossible, but its extremely hard, they're very small targets, and the Macabean aircraft and equipment he is using wasn't exactly designed with the idea of shooting down small AA missiles. He has about a minute to target the missiles before they hit him, and his pilots have been airborne for almost a day which would cut deep into their reaction time no matter how good they are.


EDIT:If I'm reading your description right, the turrets are along the body correct? If so they will not be able to engage the missiles as they are coming head on.

I see. Very well, I'll land an Air Wing too if possible. Interceptors mostly.

Though I am also busy with Cruxium--whoms Xeraph's and Dontgonearthere's intervention is causing some difficulties--though victory is close.

Actually the missiles (if they actually are anti-ATA missiles) don't have to score a hit on your missiles to kill them. All they have to do is blow up beforehand and their fragments should impact the ATA missile and effectively destroy it (so it has to be within its blast radius, I think). And you don't need the pilot to attack the missiles, the computer has the feature to automatically attack incoming missiles if they are not friendly.

Actually the turrets are mounted all around the body so some are in the front while others are on the side or such. But they can rotate to get into correct position (though they can't move across the body). Also his AA missiles could be hanging off the external pylons so they would unclip and head straight for the missiles.

They weren't anti-air to air missiles, they were regular AA missiles. Granted I understand you can take them out, but taking out over 3,000 when you have less than a minute to respond? And the pilots still have to press the button and react, the computer doesn't do it all for them.

It's easy in theory, just explode the missile in front of it and shower it with shrapnel, but its a bitch getting the missile to actually explode ahead of it when they're going that fast. I understand its entirely possible, but he's using missiles, if I read correctly, that are designed to shoot down planes, not anti-ATA missiles, and he's doing so with pilots that have been flying for a day with less than a minute to respond.

They dont have to be in control at all time, and i have refitted my AWACs Aircraft to allow me to shoot down missile comparitively efficiently, im in a posistion similar to the one that lead to Israel developing the Merkava, i cant afford to take casualties amongst my trained crews, at any time.

And actually i had closer to seventy five seconds, considering im going subsonic to allow the tankers to keep up.
And the missiles are fitted with Fragmentation warheads to allow them to shoot down clusters of aircraft or missiles.

Spiz, you wanna get on MSN?

Sorry, cant. My MSN account is DEAD, can you get on mIRC?

Meh, don't have that...do you have a link?

http://www.mirc.com/

Got to the irc.esper.net server
and channel #draftroom

Ok, I'm in #draftroom

Thats strange, i cant see you, is thier anyone else there?

Nope.

Did anything happen when you first joined espernet? Like a long list of Admin notes? With mIRC you should be able to select the espernet server from the join channel list

I'm on Effnet, can't find Espernet.

Right when you first open mIRC you get that trial thing, anyway, click continue and then an mIRC options dialog box appears, look at the little list on the left, click on Server and then the right hand side should change to show the server options, now click on the list box and scroll down till you see a server called "Espernet:Random server" or something like that, click on it and then click "Connect To server"

Haven, I am almost done with my Aurillac post but I need to just respond to the meeting between Fedor and Revello before I put it up. That means Mac gets the response, but yours will be up by tomorow!

Mac, don't you think it's time to update the weapons list on the first post of this thread?

Stevid, Haven, and anyone else in San Menedez: Hopefully I'll have the big raid post up today, prayerfully within the next hour or so. Thank you for your patience

It's actually San Mendez, its a typo on the map.

Just had to get that one out, I've been staring at San Menendez for like a year now.

I have a really stupid intelligence network then. :(

My first post in.

Mac, don't you think it's time to update the weapons list on the first post of this thread?
Well Mac?

I guess.

Tomorrow I will get a post up to everything..hopefully.. including Aurillac, the satellite strike and getting a fleet down south to hook up with Oceaneria [or w/e the nation may be called]. I assume that I would leave a few days before Stevid leaves, since the plan was to rondevouz down there anyways. I'll try to get Viusbi and Hell's Gate.

Oh dear, I see some scary shit happening. IH you know what to do.

We are trying to get him to expand the post a bit. <_< Make it a bit more interesting. But in a nice way of course! We're speaking to him on IRC.

I've been waiting for our attack to occur!! Get on it!! :P

I forbid you to attack at Aurillac.

I want to reorganise this thread, and I will do this after I get my post up tomorrow. I'll link everyone to the new thread when it's up. But first, I need links to tech pages, histories and other links you may think that are important. Thanks.

Histpries? Such as battles that have taken place? Or nation histories? Or both?

I forbid you to attack at Aurillac.

Dont you wish. :P

That post is nearly done considering I only really have to do Urseline and the major attack. With finals starting this week it won't be up until saturday.

[OOC: H&K, since you said that it is an act of war to H&K if you are aiding the enemy state in any form (i.e. arms contracts), would your government view the Free Land of Clan Smoke Jaguar as an enemy because they sold equipment to both Independent Hitmen and Stevid? (Specifially they sold Iron Cheetah tanks to both Stevid and Independent Hitmen, Timberwolf tanks, artillery units, Toryu-class Flight IIB battleships and anti-aircraft missiles to IH individually, AH-93A Firemoth helicopters to Stevid individually).]

Histpries? Such as battles that have taken place? Or nation histories? Or both?

National histories if they are important to the RP.

National histories if they are important to the RP.

Well of course all (well most) of my history is on NS wiki and my military are on an off site forum in my signature. Dunno about IH's history though.

EDIT: oh crap i've just seen that dismal spelling error..."Histpries"? Good God...
