ooc: I hope im doing this right.

The Intellegence reports to the Cheif of Defense of Lidium.

"Sir, we have just recieved information of a force from Lazy Penguins, are moving in on us, its an declaration of war!" The details were being listed. It was an act of war against Lidium. Lidiums leader, goes into action straight away, fortifying his city, and Lidiums bordors.

Breaking News!

War has been utterly voiced in the nations Lazy Penguin's[LZP] Acts!! Its war, on our home land! Our Leader was informed shortly after the intellegence have been collected! The Lidiums Gaurd and Military has just been put into action! Our land must be kept from this Dictator! We have heard rumors of our Leader requesting aid from his neighboring nations! We they respond to his requests? Will they help repell the LZP?-End Report-

Lidiums Military has already fortified its bordors and are bracing for the brutal attack on its shores. This is the first war and not the last Lidium will experiance.

ooc: i also have no idea... so feel free to PM me to give me tips and whatnot... also First post suckas! :)

The sattelites showed movement on the shores and a heavy general-military movement. The headlines in the newspapers were surging with "LZP to claim more land" and the likes of that. It was all coming into fruition the Amphibious boats were about 30 miles off coast, and heavy artillary was pounding away at Lidium's Shores. The leader of the LZP was sitting in the War Room with his brilliant generals and admirals. There was infantry being dropped in behind enemy lines with some very light assault vehicles(jeeps and such) from Cargo planes. This most definatley wasn't LZP's first war. But the leader was getting old; he figured he still had 1 or 2 wars left in him.

The military among the coast took shelter in numorous bunkers, their beach lined with Tiger Traps, plus shore to see artillary already taking aim. They were already getting bombarded with the enemies shells but this will not hinder their defense. They knew this was going to be a rough war, and it will not end without alot of casaulties. Lidiums artillary started firing its deadly folley of shells to the incoming amphibious boats were approaching. Several batteries were already trying to sink their sea-to-shore artillary.

The planes did not go unexpected. Their land to air flaks were already shooting at the cargo planes. Trying to minimize the infentry drops inside their bordors. This was one thing this new war leader did not mistaken to watch out for. The land troops already deploying to deflect the move against them. They will not let any of the nations towns or cities fall to the LZP.

ooc: 'tis my first post... but i was kinda tryin' to make some background as to the motives of the LZP's leader. (I'm a brigand I am =D)

He was looking very dissapointed... he was already "losing"
on the first day, lost several cargo planes and boats. The command to hasten it up was given and the boats bumrushed the shores in a suicidal attempt to breach the shoreline defenses. and the planes quasi-crashlanded to get their troops on the ground

*CODED TRANSMISSION TO LIDIUM*

*END CODED TRANSMISSION*

OOC: Not bad at all for a first post.

IC:
An open message was sent to both sides of the struggle.

Emperor Charjiil of Ghout demands an explanation of this struggle! If he does not decide that this invasion was warranted, the Glorious Empire will be forced to intervene.
-Churyl Goret, Ghouti Minister of Diplomacy

OOC: No, the Ghouti don't see anything wrong with demands for information and threats of military force being issued by the Minister of Diplomacy.

We find this war a sad tragedy indeed. However, due to your human rights abuses, and the fact that our military is already engaged, we cannot give you support at this time. We give our condolences to your citizens, and hope that they have a better life after this war.
m

Two letters were quickly written to the two following leaders and sent with haste in the hope that this war will end without any collidal damage.

Dear Estiemed leader of Soragakure,
It is very kind of you to offer your assistance in our dire plight. Please send what you deem necesarry to the beach head among our shores, and to the western part of Lidiums, to its town Berylem, we have had enemy hot drops within our borders and we could not get more then a third of LZP hot droppers out of our sky.
--------------------------
Dear: The Department of Places that are'nt us (TDOPTAU),
We would be most gratefull as if you can move your support behind the LZP Fleets, we do not know the number as of yet but dispose of them as you wish.
--------------------------
**CODED TRANSMISSION**
Dear Zarlon,
We, the nation Lidium will accept your reinforcements, but please wait withing close proximety to Lidiums borders, in case of any traject misfortune will befall among us. Supplies will be sent when needed.
**END CODED TRANSMISSION**
--------------------------
Another letter was written, in haste to the nation declaring they might invade and intervene in the struggle.

Dear Emperor Charjiil of Ghout,
This Invasion was unexpected and was fulled by the LZP Dictatoring decisions to claim more land for themselves. We wanted to war with them or had even though disputes between us have been flared.

If you do decide to Invade my borders without my authorization, my troops will automaticly see you as the enemy. This is no threat, just truth if you deem to take LZP side in this struggle.
--------------------------
While among the shore, a break in the line was ruptured open by the enemies artillary battery. Tearing apart two beach bunkers, killing all in and around the blast proximety. The main road was not left defensless, except a few surviving tanks and a battalion of troops, quickly recovering from the lost of the two defenses.

Once the amphibous veichals had made upon the coast, the weather was turning to a nasty situation. Seemingly a break in the tiger traps defense line was breached by a stray artillary shell from the enemies fleet. Lidiums artillary was running very low on ammunition, only daring to take shots every so often. As they feared they might need the shells to take down any major incoming ship.

The fight had already devoloped within Lidiums borders, as the assigned brigades were fortifying a town and barracading the roads near one of the major drop points for the LZP. The numbers of defense were low as the time it required to rush its 22nd Amored Defense to the most anticipated area were they might have to abonden to the enemy if its too late.

OOC: I hope im being fair lol.

There was a feeling of Elation as the good news poured on. Breaches on shore. The troops on the ground were winning. The order to send in the second wave of cargo planes and a few more amphibious boats was given. And there was plenty of secured ground for them to bunker down at. The Various firefights were dissipating as Lidium's defense was being pushed into a small forest area. Unfortunately the advance group had been totally destroyed by the flak guns... and with it the LZP's top units/information. And the well-trained but inexperienced soldiers quickly folded to Lidium's Superior advanced forces. The boats had landed the planes were finishing landing. The Invasion of Lidium had begun... and 2 hours ahead of schedule.

Kimura rose quickly from his seat after reading the letter from Lidium. Quickly pressing the intercom he said," All available anbu squad captains and jounin please report to my office immediately." Walking to a closet in the room, he opened it and took out a steel gray vest and a white ceramic fox mask. Sighing, he whispered," So it begins now, so it begins."

The battle was getting fierce now. Two lines of defense among the shore have been broken, another line being pushed back in the wester forested areas of Lidium. It was looking bad now. Arohkien Drakim slowly put his face in his hands, he was old her was indeed young, around the 30's. He had worked all his life to build this nation, and now it was being besieged, he stood up looking at the cluttered room of maps and battle plans, letters and telegrams from the captains from the lines of battle. He was frustrated that his beach had been breached. He looked around, just for a moment then smiled evilly as he sat back down, digging through the piles of papers he pulled out the updated map of all the movements. He laughed softly drawing out a few schematics of a stragety. He began working furiously at his plan. He knew itll deliver a painful blow to the LZP, but it required another nation that was surely heading in to help him defend his nation.

Among the beach head the Captain of his brigade yelled out "START FIRING!!" Almost simitanously several machine gun roared in defiance to the enemy, spitting the bullets among the landing crafts. Taking down men after men. He pulled his brigade a a few survivors of a lost brigade "We must go and fortify the lost bunkers, the LZP MUST NOT take control of that road!" He said beginning to move his men forward to the first beach. Ofcourse the men would have to navigate through hidden mines within the sandy surface. Hearing a explosion and the ground being shot upwards. The first was triggered, he wondered how many it took but shook it from his mind as he and his men ran towards the breach. He hoped to god it hadnt already been tooken, and more men were their to help hold the position. It was going to be a nasty fight.

The defence within the forest was hard pressed now. The numbers of the LZP were becoming overwhelming. But ofcourse they did not know of their land. Using it to their advantage, ambushes were being laid. And snipers being hauled up into trees. The must not let this force push through to the town. Many innocent lives were still being evacuated. This thought crushed the Generals heart. His family was in that town. And he was damn sure he wasnt going to let it fall. He just hoped that Armored Division was moving in pretty soon. Or'll itll be a miracle if they even hold them off for more then a day.

Throwing caution to the wind, the transports were moving as fast as they could. They knew they were getting close as the sounds of war became louder. Almost there almost there was the thought among those aboard

The F117s pulled off the their aircraft carriers. "Fox Lead, this is Fox One. We're inbound to our target, ETA: 1 hour 30 minutes."

"Roger Fox One, you know the drill good luck and come home safe"

They were carrying Napalm and various high explosive bombs. The troops were pulling back now fleeing to the safety of the APCs and their Command Posts. And precisely one and one half hours later the forest was smoldering and a small city just on the other side lay in ruins. Large planes had landed and 2 full armored divisions were in Lidium. The troops on the beach weren't having so much luck however, the Troops in Lidium were leading a spirited defense right where the Artillary had struck the shores, heavy casualties were being taken ,and the LZPs soldiers lay dead in the craters left by LZP artillary.
"Take out those Machine Gun nests they're slaughtering us!!"
Air strikes were being called and bombers were scrambling. But to no avail those nests just weren't going down.

Some Long Rifleman were able to take down some of the machine gunners, but as the LZP regrouped, the Lidium army did likewise. And the LZP foundthemselves swamped by a vicious assault.

"Send more. We have more. I want that beach" and another order was given and more troops were sent to the beachhead.

Back at the forest the LZP were celebrating victory after victory, the morale of Lidium was nil and the forest for which they hid was burning southward towards the bombarded destroyed town.

The General knelt at the LZP leader's desk.
"Lidium never saw the napalm coming sir, We've wiped out that entire area and we have a foothold from within"

"Excellent" A small laugh escaped his lips....

The Peoples Republic of Korridan is prepared to offer you 250 Airforce surplus MIG-21's as well as instructors to teach your pilots how to fly them. Although we do not neccesarily agree with your nations current "Iron-fist Consumerist" status we are dedicated to stopping imperialism whenever and whereever we can.

The losses in the forests were mounting quickly. Finally the Lidium forces came to a decision and pulled back within the barricaded town. The general was furious, almost gone insane to the losses. Their snipers had gotten a good ammount of men, but had died in the smoldering blaze of their wonderful forests. They were furious at the loss. As they retreated back to the town, the convoy of the 22nd Armored assault were already stationed into the city. The men were packing up the roads and making a tight strong hold. The flak guns would fire and bring down any airplane it can cetch to the ground. Two divisions, a mixture of light tanks and heavy assault, acompanied by 4 to 5 brigades of soldiers securing the east side of the foot hold of the LZP. They will not be deterred from their current losses. The LZP will be crushed without mercy. They might have airial superiority but they would not expect this move. Their ground force was more amassed then theirs currently now. And their strenght in numbers also came with strength in armor.

Lidiums beach head was almost clensed of the vile LZP. The artillary batteries firing off once more from its shore. Into the blue towards the enemies ships once more. Their aim was to take as many ships as possible, hoping to nail a carrier with its load before another strike was commensed. A thunderous roar could be heard above as a squadron of b-12's soared through the air as their destination was the carrier, and any other ships in their firey wrath.

The beach head soldiers were cheering as they mowed down the last few men upon their beaches. Men already setting up anti-tank missiles to take out the incoming amphibious ship loads of men. They were going to surrender this beach for every man had concentrated their fire among the last men upon the beach. The bunkers proved more then valuable to the Lidiums army, plus the machine gunners were excelling at what they were assigned. The dead gunners were quickly replaced with new gunners, to keep the bullets still coming upon the LZP men.

Lidiums leader sighed wondering how soon the reinforcements will come. He was already brought word from the losses on the western front, and the winnings of the beach head. Which had lightened his spirits a bit. "We already dispatched several Black Hawks to the western front, plus a slight multitude of AD-64D Apache Longbow's" the man bowed slightly to his leader. He smiled feverantly "Yes, they wont expect that, good work, go over see that they do not detect these on the move. Its the beginning of clensing them from our west" he said before dismissing him. He turned looking at the offer from another nation for their support, he sighed, he needed the other nations on the western front desperately. He hadnt anticipated them napalming them. Wich had costed part of his precious forests. He knew he would have to appeal a issue he had fixed because of this. He shook his head then turn away. He was going to have some trouble with the LZP. But he would not dare to loose his Nation he worked so hard for.

The Marines had been landed on the beaches, and were reegrouping thmeselves inland. But the Navy was heading directly toward the LZP fleet. As the first blips on the radar screen appeared, the Commander was already ordeing for action. All of thye F-35 VOTL aircraft were readied, and the guns were being loaded.

While the battle was taking place, Lidiums leader took the note he had dismissed early, seeing that the surplus of MIG-21's would be very handy right now he began to write a reply.

-
We would be proud to recieve you help, and in due time we will pay our dept back if needed. Please, send them to us, as I fear im losing precious grand at the moment. In return for the MIG-21's we will supply you with a needed escort for them and you will recieve funds in supply, we cant give much as of our war efforst desperately need it at the moment.
-

The ONV Nutria, a SSN-774 Virginia Class submarine, was now within torpedo range of the LZP fleet. The Captian of the ONV Nutria ordered torpedos launched at the first ship. As the first torpedos left, the roar of F-18 and F-35s leaving the carriers could be heard over head.
On land, the Marines had finally reached the beaches. The artillery gunners were helping the Lidium guns and firing on the LZP fleet.

"INCOMING TORPEDO CAPTAIN!!!"
"Where from Kowalski?"
"2 o'clock Captain"
The life boats were prepped and everyone was waiting anxiously for the next command to be issued via intercom. The decoy was launched and the enemy torpedo wasn't taking bait. Miracurously however the small decoy had tapped the torpedo and the torpedo was knocked off course. There was a large shaking as the slighty titled Torpedo hit the ship, but not enough damage to sink it.
"The Bannix has been hit, we don't have a damage report but we fear the worst"

"that wasn't Lidium" the Captain of the Bannix said "2 versus 1 eh? I'm not exactly sure i like those odds kowalski"

"Yes sir, but their navy is smaller than ours and we've already splashed 3 Aircraft"

The leader of the LZP knew he was fighting a losing battle in the water and on the beaches. But the fight inland was still going better than expected. He made his decision and with a troubled nod asked for the General.

"General, i want every navy vessel that can lob a shell more than 10 yards to fire on the city and help out our ground troops.", A move dangerous indeed for now the entire navy stationed there would be ripe for the pickings. But that was a gamble he had to take. Hours later the city was leveled and the LZP ground force had occupied it.

"We got orders from upstairs to go around this next city and hook up with the boys on the beach. The 1st marines and the 37th Armored are going to be here in about 15 minutes to watch our ass"

The Guys on the ground moved out and as the beach head became closer the smell of death and destruction became more potent.

"Let's Kill em!!!" The LZP rushed the beach head at full force the Bunkers were all destroyed from the back by vehicles and the groups of Lidium's army defeding the road were taken' nearly offguard. A heavily injured Lidium Soldier asked about his hometown; the town that had nearly 3 hours ago been leveled by the navy artillary and land artillary. And he also inquired as to how LZP got through it so fast. The captain of 7ID just looked at the poor soldier, and whispered a prayer for him and his family, Before ending his misery with his grandfather's M1911...

It was time, the cheers were sounded as the reinforcements came. But soon the cheers died as the soldiers had suddenly losted a section of the beach head. All units were converging upon the point were they lost. To Take it back and have no more worries of the LZP landing more ships to their land army. The Black Hawks were already upon the enemies first encampment. Raining hell upon all the ground units. The Longbow's were circirling the area releasing their firery hell upon the ground troops, and any anti-aircraft support they had. Destroying atleast a good part of the troops they retreated to the nearest airfield to reload quickly. Once they had left the skies the hiddened station of Armored and Infantry division rushed in. Machine positions were quickly set up and was already releasing their hell upon the troops. This was a suicide attempt. for most of this soldiers were mostly from the city that had been just recently leveled. And most of their friends set up in the city were lost. There were laying wastee to the surprised LZP army. They were going to fail their fallen friends and families.

Soon the roar of the B-12s were noticed again, they had already destroyed the ships, not worrying about more airstrikes in the mean time. The bomber engines roared as they went over the LZP troops, dropping their last bombs that they didnt need over seas. The ground looking as it was being blown to pieces as most of the armored division and part of the remaining of the LZP infantry were blown sky high. Making their way back towards the airfield to reload and refuel.

Lidiums leader was fuming at the current losses. But hearing that the entire navy of the LZP was destroyed he quickly sent a telegram to the two current nations having the sea to them selfs.

**CODED TRANSMISSION**
This is two both nations with Sea authority. I insist that you blockade the coast that has been lost and choke the LZP supplie route and any further deployment. You have been given permission to take the city as your command post and do as you please to the beach to further rid ourselves of the LZP. And once an opening and been obtained and secured, I will send supplies to your troops if needed.
**END OF CODED TRANSMISSION**

It wasn't true the entire navy was destroyed... but it was close enough to the truth that it scared every branch of the LZP's military. The beach head was becoming the centerpoint of the entire war and that was not good news for the LZP. So the Leader decided to send it all in... this was now total war. Every single regiment, every soldier was being prepped for combat and sent in through cargo ships to the massive city they had secured with their naval bombings.

The last of the remnants of the Navy decided to ask for permission to disengage in combat. The request was granted and 2 carriers; 1 crippled 1 fully functional and various destroyers/subs/cruisers left the theatre. Hours later they were ordered off the coast of Lidium once more just out of radar range so they could still keep the air superiority they had earned.

A plan formed in the Leader's mind... it was ambitious but it could be done. Then they would keep the beach head. The beach head where most of the fighting was was secure now... and the fighting died down as the very last of the amphibious boats pulled up. Salutes were exchanged.

"I'm Captain O'Leary with 7thID, we pulled in this morning to secure the beach head but a coupla bombers did some real damage to us."

"Sergerant L.C. Mettle with the 2nd Marines. sorry to hear 'bout the bombers but we got bad news too. The ONV's and Lidium's Navy inflicted heavy casualties upon us these 10 boats were the only that survived"

"wait... hold on." O 'Leary spoke through his comm unit very confused like. "We're recieving orders to pull out"...

OCC: ONV means Osoantipatico Naval Vessel. Its like USS. I forgot to mention that.

The Admiral of the Osoantipatican forces saw how little effect the submarine and air attacks were having. After losing the 5th plane and not damaging a single enemy, he recalled all forces. The Navy sailed close to land, betweeen the LZP fleet and troops. He orderd the ships on Alert, and the Aircraft were scrambled in hopes of maintaining air superority. The helicopter force was assigned to give close support to the OMC and Lidium forces on the ground. A Phlanax battery destroyed the first landing raft that came near. As the saw the first LZP ships on the horizon, they knew there was going to be trouble.

an our later another roaring of bombers came into view. Mostly scaring the life out of the LZP troops as they unleashed a full load over the lenght of the beach occupied by the LZP. helicopter could be heard as they were appearing a safe distance from the LZP troops and rquesting permission to land upon the ONV. The whole fleet hovered for a second as it requested landing permission.

The Lidium ground forces were destroying the last of the survivors of the western front. Giving a quick scout of the whole area with their remaining troops. They began to march out of the bloodied lands. Making way to the beach, to cut off any supply lines to the beach head. They knew they couldnt make an assault upon the city now. There were too few of them. But they had recieved ordors that everyman barricaded the path to the city. The city was beginning to be surrounded by more troops. Cutting off any access. And organizing themselfs to be a deadly barrier but artillary cannot destroy enough of them to release their perimeter of the city. This was going to be a nasty fight.

The AD-64D Apache Longbow's were approaching near the western front again, making runs over the forest, to clean the infection of LZP. The wanted to make sure no LZP forces were left were they had free roam of their land. Daily patrolls of 2 AD-64D Apache Longbow's were now very common. Supplie lines were being established for the reinforcements they were recieving. Lidium was going to make damn sure they will be supplied and ready enough. They were his helpers, and hes going to help them.

In the charred, desolated sunder that was a forest. The sound of the helicopters were becoming louder. The 2 soldiers got up from their cover and fire a volley of stinger rocket launchers at the 2 apaches. They were downed instantly and over the wreckage rolled divisions of troops and tanks. AA vehicles were flown in now, and the Apaches hardly stood a chance. The rocked forces on the beach saw the OMCs boats they were close enough.

"I want all forces in the capitol, you have less then a week to get it done General"

Once again the same F117 bombers lifted off but with a very different mission. They were to act as a satelite and feed down info from the sky.
And for more conistent but less graphical quality they also sent UAV spyplanes. Only one path in to the capitol that's undefended. And a plan was formed in the Leader's mind. The globemasters took off and pulled in towards the undefended plains, they could bee seen by all forces.

The Admiral was confused. The LZP fleet was not attacking the navy, but firing over them. Knowing that a naval battle would cost most of his fleet, if he won at all, he turned all of his attention to air superiotary. the f-18s were on patrol again, but there were an increasing number of AA vehicles around. The Osoantipatico Marine Corps (OMC) were ordered to search far and destroy these encampmens. As the first squad left, they had no idea where the AA was.

Several anbu stood quite a distance away from the incoming LZP forces watching carefully as they drew closer. Though you couldn't tell, they were all smirking underneath their ceramic masks. "So, do you think they know?" asked one of the anbu. "No, they can't tell what they're walking into,"replied the other,"come now let's go." With that they vanished like shadows fading from the light.

The MIG's should arrive within 2-3 days. Furthermore, The Peoples Republic of Korridan would be glad to send volunteer ground troops to aid your nation if you were to make certain provisions to protect the rights and welfare of the working class.

Argh! n00b wars!

TAG

Someone summarise what's happened so far and I'll wade in on the side of the most capitalist nation.

The ground troops were fighting even battle. Equal wins and losses are being counted everywhere. This enemy was certainly strong. But he had the strength in men and morale. His troops would do anything to keep the nation theirs. The F117's were spoted again, and the flak guns took aim and started firing, filling the sky with dark explosive clouds. Aiming to knock a jet out of the skies. Suddenly there was a flash and a missile left the ground. A Land to air missile quickly gained on the jet. Another and another was set loose after the jets.

When the first 2 apaches were tooken down, men quickly took on the position and went in to desemble the survivors. They did not know how the hell they were getting in but the beach head was blockaded along all sides.

Lidium leader was laughing at the attempt the LZP were going to do at taking the capitol. They wouldnt even get in close enough to make a foothold. But he was letting them come closer. For they didnt know what was going to happen to the troops pretty soon. This is his element, and the enemies nightmare. They wouldnt suspect a thing as they were going to be destroyed. He sent out a small division to make an attempt to slow them down a bit. It was bait, and the enemy was taking it. Now it was only a matter of time until this main force was wiped off the map.

------
A telegram was just sent to the nation sending the MIG, and possible ground troops. This could be a very valuable asset in the war. Though something was cetching his attention. They wanted him to change his rulling on his people. Deciding right now to propose that if all goes well, hell give his people more leizure and freedom.
------

King Falcon read the telegraph and grinned. He seized a footman passing outside his office. "Get me Commander Hack within the next ten minutes."

Eight minutes and thirty-five seconds later, Force Commander Michael Hack walked into the office. "Commander, take the King's, Mathdon and Catspaw Detachments. Sign out enough carriers to carry 375,000 men into Lidium. And... about... let's say 2 fully loaded aircraft carriers and 3 battleships. That makes... 1880 ships; 375,000 soldiers, each squad in an APC; 18 fighter/bombers and 4 helicopters. Lidium's west coast. Kick some Lazy Penguin. That shall be all."

As charlie squad fianlly came into sight with one of the AA encampments, two more missles brought down an Osoantipatican F-18 flying overhead. The squad leader survyed the camp below, while the rest of the team hid behind a small ridge. He reylaed the coordinates to the command center and the team left. Sevral minutes after leavind, they heard the explosions as the Artillery began pouding the AA encampment. They set of in search of another.

Coded Message to Lidium:
Unfourtantley, we can no longer give Naval and Air Support. We must withdraw them immdeatly and send them to a front the desperatly needs them . I think we can leave the land force.
Deepset regrets, Commander of the Osoantipatican forces.

Hack stood uneasily on the conning tower of one of the 5 submarines he had persuaded Falcon to let him take. He slid down the ladder again, feeling slightly queasy. He'd have preferred mounting a plasma turret in a space shuttle covering a Jankian as he made back to base, rather than this. He grabbed the speaking tube. "Radio Room, transmit a signal to Lidium. We need to know the precise numbers of Pingu Ships in the bay."

Lidiums leader sighed sadly as one of their valuable allies had to withdraw from the battle. Shaking away the loss he resumed back cordinated the attacks planed. This was getting tougher by the day.

A lidiums soldier on the beach recieved the transmission from the sub. "Falcania navy, precise cordinates are.. 30Bravo - 47Alpha I copy 30Bravo - 47Alpha" the soldier looked up checking the spots again, the spotter was right. "Once you achieved those cordinates, youll be able to pick off the other ones." the transmission ended as he changed channels reporting progress on the battle to the main head quarters. They were due reinforcements from inland any hour now. And they hope it got here soon so they can reclaim their beach head.

OOC the marines stay, baots and planes leave.

The marines dug in front were very worried now that they were left without air support. A a LZP F-117 flew over head un-opposed, they dove inton the bunker just in time to save tmeselves. They wondering how to take the beach without the Super Hornets. They deicded that the best idea was to pound it with artillery.

Hack pored over the screens.

"FNS Feather and FNS Phoenix, assist Osoantipatico in artilliterial bombardment of the beach. FNS Talon, escort the transport ships onto the beach. All submarines, kick some naval arse."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~A reasonable time after the Ghouti message was sent~~~~~
"The Lazy Penguins did not even bother to respond! This insult will not be tolerated. Get me Commander Corcyn immediately!" Charjiil shouted. If one side couldn't be bothered to explain their viewpoint, it was easy to decide which to support.

As soon as Corcyn entered the room, Emperor Charjiil began explaining the situation. Finally, the Commander's orders were given.

"I want you to teach the Dictatorship of the Lazy Penguins to listen when the Glorious Empire speaks, and not to attack other nations at random. You are authorized to use a hundred legions for this purpose, with the needed support. Start at once!"

"It shall be as you say, Emperor."
Bowing, Commander Corcyn left the room. Suddenly, he had a great deal of work to do. Organizing an invasion force of a million soldiers, plus heavy armor and enough warships to carry and protect the expediton, is a very difficult task. Keeping the force supplied with everything it needs is even harder. The Glorious Empire, however, possessed the resources to manage both. Two days later, a great fleet left Ghouti waters. Soon, they would arrive at the coast of the Lazy Penguins.

Secret Transmission to Lidium
Emperor Charjiil has decided to side with you in this conflict. Your attacker will be dealt with. Do you need assistance to survive the invasion while we eliminate its source?
-Corcyn, Commander of the Ghouti Military

Announcement to Ghouti Empire
Emperor Chaarjil, We have done nothing to offend you, nor did we do anything to warrant a "siding". If you do not withdraw your soldiers now we will be forced to make you pay the dearest of consequences. We have no love nor care for your troops nor your civilians and your arrogance will cost you the lives of both.

OOC: I'll assume you are just guessing that the troops showing up at your doorstep aren't friendly, since no declaration of war was made and you gave no reason you might know about the secret transmission to Lidium.

I requested an explanation for your invasion; you not only failed to provide it, you neglected to respond at all! This is an insult that cannot be ignored, and now you compound it with threats! I will require a full explanation and apology - either now, or when you are dragged before me in chains. You have one more day.
Do not try to threaten me again, or your head will decorate a spike outside my palace.
-Charjiil, Emperor of Ghout.

OOC: as a crazy nutjob leader i reserve the right to think everyone is the enemy ;) . Also it seems reasonbly logical that since i didn't request for troops or help, the troops showing up at my door would be indeed hostile.

IC:
The silo's doors opend and from them dust and smoke flew. The LZP leader was already furious for the series of mishaps that have been crippling his fight in Lidium. The last he needed was this new country setting its forces there too. The LZP decided that it would ready Every nuclear warhead it had in the hopes that Ghouti would just take the hint and leave. If LZP were to nuke Lidium it's land and resources would be useless. It was being published everywhere. Tape and live feed... newspapers everything. If Ghouti interfered it would meet it's demise, LZP would die out too from nuclear attack, but that didn't matter to the Leader who was crazed at his losses in Lidium.

-Meanwhile on the battlefront-
The LZP soldiers were well rested, for everytime Lidium tried to probe within 1 mile of the forest the soldiers dissapeared. The marched north and then east. Secured the area then set up there as CP... thy traveld 20 miles and left a force to occupy the Forest just in case.

Ghout had long made missile defense a priority, hating the idea of a weapon that could not be fought. It would take a formidable attack indeed to get even one nuclear warhead through to a Ghouti city. Just in case, though, the largest cities of the Empire were put on high alert. Should an attack be launched against one of them, all high-ranking nobles and government officials would be safe in bomb shelters within minutes.

Along the coast of The Lazy Penguins, the Glorious Army waited in silence.

OOC: True, that does make sense.

The General was looking at a startagect map when an intelligence officer came in. "Sir... according to UAV intell, The Lazy Penguns are preparing the Nukes"
The General oreded evey troop into bunkers, and all AA batteis on full alert.

To LZP:
From: TDOPTAU
We discourage your use of nuclear weapons. Im sure we can solve this conflict without blowing up the world....

The anbu squads deployed looked at each other worriedly. They intercepted messages for a nuclear launch on Lidium. Quickly they sent a message back to the council. Within minutes, stealth transports were deployed loaded with 80 new anbu squads along with 100 jounins and medic nins. They raced to LZP in hopes that they could stop such a launch if not though, they would exact a terrible vengeance upon them.

"Ah, so they have agreed to give more rights and power to the working class then?"

"Yes comrade, that seems to have been there general response"

"Excellent, dispatch 5,000 Red Guard with 45 Krushkev Main Battle tanks."

*The Soldier nods*

"Oh, and send a telegram to them ahead of time announcing that the soldiers should be there within a week. Furthermore, survey the nations geography, I want very detailed maps drawn up and knowledge of major military installations in the event of a Communist or Socialist upriseing in that nation"

The LZP leader looked around worredly. It seemed not even the military council was hot for his Plan on using nuclear warheads. Ishmael Megadeath Crazeemon looked around at the MPs in his office. They put on the cuffs and dragged him away. There was an election held, and a Revolutionary by the name of Levinious Smitherens was elected as the running Prime Minister of the Lazy Penguins. The tension was high as the war was halted by I.M.Crazeemon's threat of using nuclear tactics. Every party involved was in nuclear lockdown. Levinious let out a sigh.
"Get the troops in Lidium back to LZP borders... this war is over."
The nukes were unreadied, and the troops were flown home as fast as they had been deployed.

Message to Lidium, OMS and Falconia
Our troops grow weary, and our former leader had put is in a very badspot financially. We are hastily recalling our entire army, and humbly await terms of surrender.

Message to Ghouti
Emperor Charjiil please accept my apology in behalf of the former leadership of the LZP. You will be pleased to know that we working right now to bring things back to norm. You will also be pleased to know that we are placing our former leader Ishmael Megadeath Crazeemon under arrest and is soon to be charged with the most sincere of hatecrimes. If there is anything we can do don't hesitate to ask.

Osoantipatico accepts the surrender. We need our troops elsewhere, and the reamining troops flew out, to Ft. Elbonia for deployment again right away.

Transmission to Ghouti Empire
No, it would be perfect if you set off to destroy the source of this problem. Ill await word from you on your success at the battle field

The tension were rissing quickly now. The LZP were in for it now. The tide of war has been drasticly turned against them. Lidiums leader laughed softly thenshook his head, though he was stopped sort as one of his Ministry of defence officers rushed in panting. "Sir! We recieved word from a Intercepted com, that LZP is threatening to bring out the Nukes!"
Lidium jumped up quickly. "Get everyone in the bunkers! I dont car who they are, I want EVERYONE IN!" He said, mostly the important people plus the millitary. He knew his other allies have intercepted it aswell so he sent a message to Korriden.

"Leader of Korriden, please pull your forces back and hold of any preperations as LZP has issued a nuclear threat. If it is resolved, then we will discuss our former treaty appropiately" He left the intercom then hastily started his work.

Present

Arohkien relaxed sighing once he recieved word that the nuclear threat have been canceled. This war was going to have him put more attention on his defence of his nation. Slowly he sent an open letter to all his allies once the LZP forces were all pulled out.

*Letter*
Dear Trusted Allies,
I, and my nation all give you our thanks for your support, please, if their is anything we can do to help move troops out and resupply your troops, please tell us before we are too busy with our rebuilding of our nation. I am in great gratitude that all of you have offered your hand in help of my nation, we are in great dept of all of you for your help.
*End*

Then he turned hastily towards the new letter he had recieved from the new LZP leader and replied, though not as kindly as he thought he might have wanted it.

*Start*
I, and the people of Lidium demand a retribution for your former leaders act, as he had slaughtered many innocents, and destroyed half of my forests in his crazed acts of war against us. We want some kind of retribution to soften the wounds of Lidium. We are still enemies, and untill our retribution is recieved, we will remain untrusted to eachother. I wont promote any act of war, if you do the same. We finally agree to your surrender. I would like to discuss some matters appropiately later with this new leader of the LZP
*End*

Levinious was amazed they had not asked for Disarmament.

Letter to Lidium
Lidium, we are nearly bankrupt. But we are going to take loans to buy new assets. We are also (if it is ok with you) to send a group of soldiers/citizen volunteers. To re-build your cities and re-plant your forests. And treat your wounded. We are releasing 3/4s of your POWs as a show of good faith, but we will keep the rest until 100% of our POWs are released.
Sincerest Apolagies,
Levinious Smitherens

Lidium quickly wrote a letter back to the LZP, content with what he was getting in retribution.

Dear Leader of the LZP,

We are going to aswell release 1/4 of your POW, and hold the rest until your words in your letter hold true. We will not ask for your disarment, since you might have invaders on your bordors. But we apprieciate what you will give us in return of the costs of war. The other 3/4 of your POW will be release when we are recieved what you wrote.

Levinious sat in his chair. Now he just had to wait for word from Ghoutti until this nightmare could be out to rest.

King Falcon II sat down on his throne. "It's spelt Falcania, you twunt." He muttered, whilst composing an email.

To: Lazy Penguins foreign office
