Southeastasia Declares War On Joint Conglomerates OOC Signup Thread

IC:
One day ago....
Prime Minister Neo of Southeastasia sighed. Moments earlier he had received the email from Minister of Foreign Relations Debra Mackensay. He had known little of her due to the fact that Joint Conglomerates was recently founded. But like all those that had received an e-mail or letter from Debra Mackensay, one word could sum her character all up: bitch. But right now, intrapersonal relations did not matter. What mattered was the fact that an unarmed PX-801 had been vaporized, killing the entire civilian investigation team. To add insult to the injury, investigation team leader Dr. Felix Dae-Jung Wang, was a well known civil rights activist (not to mention national hero) in Southeastasia. A friend of the Prime Minister, his relationship with him gave the civil rights movement its peak during the early years of Southeastasia. Unfortunately, this lead to high taxes that still plague Southeastasia today. But like the fact that Mackensay had a wicked character, that didn't matter now. Diplomacy over force was the main philosophy of the people of Southeastasia. The Prime Minister was one of the vast majority. The video image still burned throughout their heads....
VIDEO FOOTAGE OF THE FATAL FLIGHT
"Hello, Mr. Lin, we are to be arriving in the Joint Conglomerates capitol, Centreville, shortly." said Dr. Wang, leader of the investigator team.
"Excellent." said Mr. Lin, "How was -" He never finished the sentence.
The PX-801's interior grew with light. Screams of excruciating pain were heard, then the plane exploded.
The short footage then moved out to a photograph taken from a fisherman. It showed white-hot pieces of metal quickly turning into liquid, then to gas.
He then immediately pushed it aside. He marched to the entrance of the Emerald Executive Recluse: built over the site where the former Republic of Singapore's (now the capitol of Southeastasia, and renamed 'Lion City') Istana once stood. Hundreds of anxious individuals were awaiting him to address the citizens. But even more anxious individuals saw through the cable television news cameras. He stood at the microphone prepared for him. He swiftly hid his hands behind his back, the right hand clasping the left arm's wrist.
He opened his mouth to speak, "This is to the leaders of the Federation of Joint Conglomerates." He sounded polite as usual, but there was one thing out of normality: his voice was unusually firm.
"You have not apologized within the period of twenty-four hours. This was the least you could have done to prevent the situation to worsen. Diplomacy has failed, unfortunately. It is inevitable for war to occur. By vaporizing the plane, you not only created an ugly impression for the international community. You have revealed how ugly are your human rights records are. You have revealed that you perverted capitalism. Laissez-faire neoliberals worldwide will soon enough start distancing themselves from you. And above all, you are about to pay the price by Southeastasia, and her allies in the international community will come down hard."
REMEMBER THE INVESTIGATORS!!!" he cried.
The crowd that could see in the flesh the legendary politician clapped loudly. A couple of cheers could be heard from the audience. He tilted his head down; a way of saying 'thank you' to the crowd. Then he walked back inside, the doors shutting behind him.
Five days later....
A B-1 Lancer's engine sounds screamed throughout the undisclosed airbase in Southeastasia. It would later be followed by four other aircraft of the exact same type.

TO: Prime Minister Neo, United States of Southeastaisa.
FR: Premier Andronicus Palaeologus, Unspecifistan.
RE: Aid against Joint Conglomerates.
In light of the transgressions committed by the Federation of Joint Conglomerates against your nation, we have decided that military action on your part is both justified and desirable. Owing to the comparative weakness of our military, we can only offer some 6,000 combat troops to be dispatched to you post haste, along with a naval detachment.
Further to this, we are suspending all diplomatic and economic ties with the Federation until they choose to issue a peace treaty that you feel you can accept. Our best intelligence idicates that the Federation has some 156,000 comabt troops in total.
We will prevail, Prime Minister, mark my words.
Yours in confidence and strength,
Premier Andronicus Palaeologus.

The Merkar Republic is hereby dispatching a Task Force of three Remnant-class battleships, one Admiral Kuznetsov-class carrier with 80 Aryx fighters, one Pepperpot-class supply ship, and 25 Arcan-class transports loaded with ammunition and military supplies to the waters around the east coast of Joint Conglomerates. They have been ordered to destroy all enemy ships and aircraft that come within 50 miles. In addition, one PX-703 spy satellite has been redirected into an orbit over Joint Conglomerates. We are awaiting further development of the situation.

And as for Athiesism, the FJC is landlocked. Ask him for the link to his stub on his nation.
Athiesism
23-09-2005, 15:24
Well, the carriers are going to stay there, at least they can launch airplanes. We are also going to send our Austin-class amphibious assault vessel and load it with 36 Knighthawk helicopters and 11 Desert Fox helicopter gunships.
OOC: Athiesism, who are you siding with?
Athiesism
23-09-2005, 15:43
The guys attacking JC. They're screwed. They only have like 20 million people versus the world. We need more people on the Joint Conglomerates side.
You can bet your sweet bippy Kraven Corp is gonna side with the Almighty Dollar worshippers.
Southeastasia
23-09-2005, 15:54
And what about you yourself? You plan on staying neutral? Or does your nation have business interests ICly and plan on supporting FJC? I only need to think of an alliance name. I'm planning on having six nations (counting myself) against six nations.
I might send something here to aid one alliance or the other, since my civil war thread is un-progressive. What I had in mind for my nation is that I start out as a republic with perfect ideals, then progress to something like the Empire. I'm in he middle right now so I'm not sure which side to join...

From: The United Government of very Small Island
To: The Federation of Joint Conglomerates
The nation of Very Small Island would like to offer support to your nation in the coming conflict. We could provide you with anti aircraft weapons, as well as military advisors and other equipment. If you need further assistance we could send some of our army and airforce units to help if they are needed. When you get the chance send us a list of anything you many need and we will see if we can provide it. This would be a good chance to test out our recently reformed military and new equipment.
For the moment, The Incorporated States of SkyCapt will remain neutral in the conflict.

23-09-2005, 16:27
So there are a slow flow of FJC supporters...ICly, they will flatten VSI's forces should they help FJC.
Concremo
23-09-2005, 16:29
ooc: As a long standing ally of the Kraven Corporation, i'll be more than happy to side with FJC. However, the support of the Concremian army comes at a price; namely 20% of all your dangerously violent criminals for the next 10 years or the cash equivalent.

FROM: Minister of Defence Vladimir Strenovska, The Union
SEND TROOPS NEARBY SOUTHEASTASIA IMMEDIATELY STOP DO NOT ENGAGE STOP SEND A RECON TEAM STOP SATELLITES TO BE SENT INTO THE AREA STOP FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS TO FOLLOW STOP
OOC: Sebytania will support Southeastasia, but will first cease to engage and observe the situation. And don't moan about the caps, It's been sent trough a encrypter anyways. The strange part is, how the heck did it into the knowledge of all the other nations? Who knows.
EDIT: So officially we are neutral, but if the JC and their allies don't for some reason like recon teams and spy satellites going all over the area and take actions against them, we're in! Of course, same goes for Southeastasia, but I don't think they're going to shoot an ally... or?
Southeastasia
23-09-2005, 18:29
OOC: Don't worry, I won't. And if you don't believe it was friendly fire, I can prove it with solid evidence. And since I live in Hong Kong on the other side of the world, things may be a bit topsy-turvy...where do you all live?

Since JC hasnt even posted yet, i guess it wont start until he does.
Nistolonia will remain somewhat neutral. Its leaning towards Southeastasia.
And we need more people to side with JC. Its like 1.3 billion against 5 million right now.

The sides aren’t that uneven, most people are still neutral. Right now there only needs to be one more person backing the FJC.

Like that, its a bit unbalanced in USSEA's favor, especially since theres no way im helping that money grubbing evil corperation...(That was IC, by the way)
when the war actually begins, some of the neutral parties, like myself, will probably pick sides, whether it be with money, arms, or soldiers...
Also, not all wars are supposed to be 10:10, having a 10:8 war is not bad...
Nistolonia
25-09-2005, 01:45
OK.
Nistolonia has decided to side agaisnt the FJC. The Republic of Sollion, (ie: my brother) has also decided to join the war.
Actually, Athiesism and Unspecifistan are new and smaller nations, while Very Small Island is a good-sized nation, around SkyCapt's size.

Sebytania
25-09-2005, 08:55
By the way, why ain't Sebytania on the list? We are officially neutral as I said, so I guess we'll be in the observer part. However, our politics make it impossible for us to back up FJC, so if we fight, we fight at Southeastasia's side.
And don't worry, this is slightly a "strategical" war, we won't send too much troops and will not fight to the last man. More like training for our special forces and airborne.

But, for anyone who cares, we will be sending TFR's 1st Combined Naval Fleet. Hoever, since FJC is landlocked, Cobra class attack helicopters will be used to invade.
The 1st Combined Naval Fleet:

Not to worry, the Board will see that this is every bit as interesting as Emergency Crash Transmission. Now, I've received several TGs from different people offering assitance, but I need to coordinate. So, if you want to sign on as an ally to the Federation, send me another TG confirming it, and what you plan on offering us. By the way: huge, evil shadowy corporations like Kraven are all welcome!! The Federation of Joint Conglomerates may be new, but I assure you, I am not. I can provide my allies with ties into the international community that very few have.
As the Board says at the end of each memo.... Thank you, and God bless the almighty Dollar....

Something tells me this is going to be very interesting. BTW, is Stryker, besides being an insidious businessman, also a master strategist? Or is he to bribe mercenary rogue generals? Have you also spent time researching tanks while you were away? Because I think this battle is going to be a bit one-sided if all you are going to have is super-robotic infantry against many battalions of armored, tracked vehicles with SABOT cannons. Not to mention aircraft, and spacecraft in case your satellite missile system is attacked and not sufficient enough from a whole SD fleet...

5 Million, 40 thousand troops? Isnt that a bit much? Like, 3/4 of your entire military? If you're sending in that much, then so are Sollion and Nistolonia.
@Athiesism
My troops are transported in in transport planes, and airstips are provided by "inflatable" mobile bases, transported in by helicopter.
And plasma rifles should be fine, as long as they arent overpowered. (no "I blow up your battle tank in one shot"). Nistolonia has some railguns (low powered ones), so plasma should be fine.
And everyone, post your basic military capabilities, (Like, how elite, what weapons ect...). Remember to check your defence spending at
http://nseconomy.thirdgeek.com/nseconomy.php?nation=
and type in your nation.
If you have 0% spending, it means you have troops with AK-47s and Sovet era RPGs, your armoured core is a bunch of pickup trucks with machine guns, and your air force is a few Cessna sky planes with homemade bombs.
EDIT: Just found everyone's spending. From highest to lowest.
Sebytania (10 Trillion)
The Kraven Corperation (3.6 trillion)
Nistolonia (2.5 trillion)
Sollion (785 Billion)
Very Small Island (700 Billion)
Southeastasia (500 Billion)
The Fallen Races (100 Billion)
Athiesism (65 Billion)
FJC (24 Billion)
Unspecifistan (12 Billion)
I think thats everyone. Everything is rounded a bit, but its close enough. For comparison, the USA has about a 500 Billion defence budget.

Not quite, The Kraven Corporation is a totalitarian Military State, and thefore its policing duties are handled by the Military, so Military and Law Enforcment budgets are combied, 7% of my entire population is Military,(about 54.000.000 Soldiers in total) and as i stated before, the numbers include non-combatants as well as Vehicles and Logistical Corps.

Right, here are the troops i intend to send as long as nothing ridiculous happens like me being invaded. I'm going to go with a more streamlined force than that of KC, but if things get heavy i'm bringing in more guys.
Infantry Legion IX
Divisions 801-900
960,000 Soldiers
40,000 Commissars
Infantry Legion X
Divisions 901-1000
960,000 Soldiers
40,000 Commissars
Armoured Legion IX

26,000 Vehicles
MBT-120 10,000
HBT-140 2,000
ACA-110 2,000
APC-110 4,000
A-VTOL-160 4,000

Air Wing IV
Fighter 500
Penetrator 500
Multirole 500
Interceptor 1000
Bomber 500
Heavy Bomber 50
The Air Wing will be stripped down and flown in once i have secured some land, and then larger transport ships will bring their equipment and materials to contruct a base and some air fields. On top of that a satelite is being pulled off course immediately to watch things unfold, with another two on standby if anything happens to it. I dont intend to send any Fleets because you have no damn beaches. The Armoured/Infantry Legions will be brought in by Cargo Plane once several drop-zones have been deemed safe, although i might bring in a few others before hand for a guerillia war.

Bastion Prime
27-09-2005, 17:21
The following forces shall be mobilized to help Southeastasia:
Naval Vessels
45 Interdictor-class Star Destroyers
40 Imperator II-class Star Destroyers
25 Imperator I-class Star Destroyers
10 Executor-class Super Star Destroyers
7 Sovereign-class Super Star Destroyers
2 Eclipse-class Super Star Destroyers
Ship-based Fast Attack Forces + Transports
1,080 Imperial Assault Transports
865 Lambda-class Shuttles
335 Assault Gunboats
295 Squadrons of TIE Interceptors
295 Squadrons of TIE Defenders
100 Squadrons of TIE Oppressors
72 Squadrons of TIE Heavy Bombers
68 Squadrons of TIE Bombers
Accompanying Vessels
5,450 GAT-12h Skipray Blastboats
795 Y-4 Transports
500 TIE Boarding Craft
15 Lancer-Class Frigates
15 Corellian Gunships
Invasion Forces
55 StormTrooper Legions
200 Regular Army Legions
780 Landing Barges
2,500 Spider-class MT-ATs
2,275 AT-AT walkers
1,697 AT-ST walkers
855 AT-PT walkers
427 AT-RT walkers
Side Note 1:
1 Battalion = 970 men/women/STs.
1 Division = 10 Battalions.
1 Legion = 4+ Divisions = 38,800+ men/women/STs.
Battalions, Divisions and Legions also include vehicles, artillery, ground transports, non-coms and so on.
Side Note 2: The Troopers and vehicles are spread evenly across all Capital Ships and can be deployed planet-side easily and efficiently in just less than an hour. This makes the Bastion Prime Imperial Navy the perfect platform to launch an invasion from, or to send back-up forces from to turn the tides of planet-side battles.
Important Note: It must be stressed that some of these forces will be held in reserve along with the majority of the military & navy not being allocated to the war, to serve as defensive and delaying forces should the fight be taken to the Imperium itself, or to Southeastasia.

ooc: Star Destroyers? Capital Ships? TIEs? As far as i know this is (P)MT, and though i think AT-ATs and possibly atmospheric TIEs would be acceptable at a stretch this army list is too FT for the most liberal PMT definition. Orbital bombardment satelites, maybe but star destroyers? No chance.

I hope you're joking about the ICBMs. ;)
Due to the large amounts of Kraven Corporation Forces, Nistolonia and Sollion will be sending in additional forces. As both states are military states as well, m(Military size=36 million for Nistolonia and 30 million for Sollion) they can afford to send:
Sollion
3,000,000 Sollion Shock Troops (300 Battalions)
20,000 Sollion Hunter/Killers (20 Battalions)
Supporting Armoured and Air Force Battalions. (included in each Battalion)
Nistolonia
3,000,000 Nistolonian Light Infantry (3000 N'vesa)
2,000 Nistolonian Black Dragons (200 N'vesa)
Supporting Armoured and Air Force (Included in each N'vesa)
This overwrites my original post.
I'll try and post Nistolonian and Sollion army capebilities/weapons and vehicles ASAP, though probably not near the detail of Concremo's.
As of now, pictures

No. Stay. There's a reason why I knew you would come in handy. The starfleet is supposed to provide cover for the ground forces against the Corporatist Entente (like that name, Concremo, JC and TKC?). BP's military presence alone is just enough to decide the ultimate conclusion of the conflict. And I'll be starting as soon as JC can put up a map of his country.

You can't send in a whole army and keep it supplied with helicopters. Their range is too short and they can't carry very much. The ONLY way you can get large forces in is by sea or space. If anyone on the Southeastasia side is interested, my space ships can transport your troops.
How is the time going to work? I say we have one RL day that equals six GT months to get the troop movements done, then every day after that equals one week.

And heliopters are a perfectly good way to supply your army. So are planes. Thats the way the military works these days, if you hadnt noticed.
And time is really variable. Sometimes you spend pages discribing one battle that takes two days, or a week goes by with nothing happening. Try not to use RL equivilents.

He should stay. Why? I mean, they have already established bases in JC's territory. Their satellites will also take us out if we attempt to get our own foothold in JC territory. Their armies outnumber us and their technology is on a higher level than our armed forces. Don't let him go!

You can't transport half a million men and their equiptment by helicopter. And you DEFINETLY can't transport tanks with helicopters, nor can you keep them supplied. You need ships. There's no way around it.

Let it be known:
The Legisstraum of National Commonwealth has passed a support package in favor of Joint Conglomerates and The Corporate Entente.
The Republic of National Commonwealth will be making available β1 trillion Banc-Securities Marks ($2.68 trillion) in non-discretionary spending and will hence forth be subsidizing any JC millitary expenditures at %25 until the end of this war. Additionally, we will be selling "Bonds of Freedom" nationally, to support the Federation's efforts.
We believe this decision to be in our best interests as we have significant ties with the Federation. We do consider our support package an act of neutrality under our constitution since we haven't declared war nor have we ordered any troops, yet. Much thanks for your cooperation.

Athiesism
30-09-2005, 14:59
Guys, about the air transport thing, you can only carry one main battle tank on a huge transport. And then you have to supply them. If you send all your tanks in at the same time, you won't have a chance to send them supplies. Trust me, even if you are able to send in thousands of heavy transports sorties, and I'm not sure any of you have that many, you'll have to send in thousands more supply sorties. It's just not practical. Helicopters have a short range, also, only about 200 miles- how are you going to get them in? It'll take months to send in all this stuff by air, even if you can keep it supplied. We HAVE to assume that a neighboring country let us pass through.
About the OOB, you forgot my spaceship, the MRS Invincible, and its 86 Talon fighters. You also forgot 300,000 soldiers I'm sending in, along with their small arms, machine guns, and a total of 1,200 mortars. They'll be transported from space into enemy territory or friendly territory, whichever one you guys want.

You cannot use bombardment rockets because the orbital missile satellite network is blanketed all over the land of FJC. That's why I need BP's fleet to take it out. You (Athieism) can assist him however.

I've edited the list of allocated units to make things fairer. If this still seems unfair, I could assign 40-50% of the allocated capital ships to transport duty and keep entirely them out of combat. If they come under fire, they can divert power to shields and engines and jump to one of the Imperial Colony Worlds to repair and deal with any casualties (we have several, or so I have been told =P).
Naval Vessels
40 Imperator II-class Star Destroyers
25 Imperator I-class Star Destroyers
15 Lancer-Class Frigates
15 Corellian Gunships
10 Executor-class Super Star Destroyers
7 Sovereign-class Super Star Destroyers
2 Eclipse-class Super Star Destroyers
The reason for so many powerful vessels is that I do not know the sizes of any possible enemy fleets, or the power of the Satellite Array (esp. firing in synchronisation). I am preparing for the worst, whilst at the same time not using all of my fleet. Roughly 35-40% of the fleet will be deployed to combat space-based threats and so on - that 30-40% is listed. The rest is not, as there is no reason to. Specific purposes for the ships are listed below. If the threat turns out to be less than expected, or if the Satellite Array is defeated and nothing else appears to threaten the fleet, then it is likely that more of the larger vessels will be sent to strategic points across the Imperium to guard against possible space-based attacks. However, they will remain on standby to return should things turn sour.
Allocation Purposes: These vessels will be used for the following purposes:
Eliminating the threat of the Satellite Array.
Transporting large numbers of troops and vehicles to the ground. Such large numbers would be practically impossible to transport on the ground, hence the requirement for fleets of transports and shuttles. This makes the invasion forces incredibly flexible when deploying. Also included in transportation are Fighters stored in the hangar bays of the above vessels.* (*purposes below) etc...
Transporting allied units.
Preventing and halting the space-born transportation of enemy forces.
Eliminating enemy space vessels and satellite systems.
Bringing down enemy Planetary Defense Systems preceding allied ground- or aerial-based invasions.
Bringing down enemy Satellite Communication Systems. However, small satellites such as these may well not appear on radar due to their compact sizes. The only guaranteed way for them to be noticed is when transmissions are being relayed through them. Destruction of these will be undertaken by assigned bomber squadrons, primarily using the pilot's sight rather than radar to pinpoint the locations.
To provide defense against enemy ground-based missile systems which may target the fleet.
To defend fighters or transports fleeing to the safety of the fleet.
Scanning the world below in search of possible 'secret' overland bases, intelligence facilities and other possible targets to investigate, and, if necessary, destroy.
The Sovereign-class Super Star Destroyer, "Pride of Valeria", is to act as a Hospital Ship for allied forces.
Denied Tasks: Vessels in the above category will be denied permission for:
Orbital bombardment of anything planet-side - with the exception of ground-based Planetary Defense Systems (shields, missile systems etc...) likely to hinder, disrupt or even halt deployment of ground invasion forces. Anything else can be dealt with by ground units once deployment is 30% complete.
Entering the atmosphere. Only Imperator I- and the Imperator II-class Star Destroyers are capable of Deep Atmospheric Penetration and landing, as the others would break up if they tried. However, all are capable of entering the upper atmosphere. No vessels will be allowed to enter the atmosphere - only transport vessels and fighters/bombers are allowed that privaledge.
Aerial/Space-born Fast Attack Forces & Transports
1,080 Imperial Assault Transports
865 Lambda-class Shuttles
795 Y-4 Transports
780 Landing Barges
Allocation Purposes: These vessels will be used for the following purposes:

Transporting reinforcements to bases or to the front.
Aiding invasion forces and assaults by transporting units right into the thick of frontline action - however, this is risky as they'd be pretty big targets. We are expecting to lose at least 35% of all transports over the course of the conflict. They can also act as minor assault ships whilst at the frontline, as most are armed in some way.
Transporting the wounded and dead away from the front to bases deep within allied territory.
Transporting POWs to remote, top secret facilities for interrogation and imprisonment until the end of the war.
Transporting military, medical, food and other supplies to the front, bases and other allied facilities.
Transporting commanders (generals, majors etc) and their staff. These will be escorted by fighters, and only Lambda-class shuttles will be used for transporting such high-status figures.
Just about any other transportation duties.
Fighters, Heavy Fighters, Bombers and Gunboats
295 Squadrons of TIE Interceptors
295 Squadrons of TIE Defenders
100 Squadrons of TIE Oppressors
5,000 GAT-12h Skipray Blastboats
335 Assault Gunboats
72 Squadrons of TIE Heavy Bombers
68 Squadrons of TIE Bombers
Allocation Purposes: These vessels will be used for the following purposes:
Aiding and acting as the vanguard of the attacks on the JC Satellite Array.
Providing essential air cover for ground forces.
Destroying enemy bases, anti-air weapons, military facilities, installations, industrial sites, reservoirs etc in front of advancing Imperial and allied forces.
Fending off enemy aerial incursions and bombing runs.
Aiding advancing ground units by performing strafing and bombing runs on enemy ground units and their supply depots.
To aid allied defense against possible missile or Tactical Nuclear Strikes against Imperial or allied forces.
Denied Tasks: Vessels in the above category will be denied permission for:
Unrestricted air-to-air and air-to-ground warfare.
Attacks from the air on targets which will stand a 50% or more chance of causing an ecological disaster. This won't happen much, however, due to the nature of the Joint Conglomerates' territory.
Attacks on civilians and neutrals.
Invasion Forces
110 Regular Army Legions - Approx. 4 million men/women/non-coms (to be brought in 11 legions at a time by allocated capital ships serving purely as mass transports).
55 StormTrooper Legions - Approx. 2 million StormTroopers.
5,000 Spider-class MT-ATs
2,275 AT-AT walkers
1,697 AT-ST walkers
855 AT-PT walkers
427 AT-RT walkers
Side Note:
1 Battalion = 970 men/women/STs.
1 Division = 10 Battalions.
1 Legion = 4+ Divisions = 38,800+ men/women/STs.
Battalions, Divisions and Legions also include vehicles, artillery, ground-based transports, non-coms and so on.

I have one 200,000 ton Invincible class battleship with 55 antimatter torpedoes and 86 Talon fighters. I'm building more, though. The antimatter torpedoes have a range of about 250 million miles, but it takes a few days for them to get that far. They detonate 3,000 miles away from their target and lay out a big sheet of antimatter, but if you get past my fighter screen they can be shot down. I already typed up a little narrative about my spaceships attacking the satellite array, I think it's pretty good. We just need to know about how dense the array is, what the weapons are and what their ranges are.
Nistolonia
30-09-2005, 22:14
There are twenty satelittes. They're weapons are aimed towards the ground, i'm pretty sure, so you should be able to destroy them with little difficulty.
And
There probably are allied territories, so lets use them to invade.
Ill argue about Nistolonias air transport system later.

Bastion Prime
30-09-2005, 23:07
Alright, but so many legions of soldiers require mass transport, especially since there is a substantial body of water surrounding the region on Earth which BP is part of.
I can dedicate all Star Destroyers to perform transport tasks, and I can deny all Sovereign- and Eclipse-Super Star Destroyers the permission to open fire on anybody unless they are attacked first.
However, I will not reduce the Task Force's size. Why? Because each and every ship carries all kinds of supplies (ammunition, fuel, replacement parts, repair facilities, docking facilities etc) and housing for soldiers, fighters etc. While many of the supplies can be transported onto the ground, docking and repair facilities for fighters, bombers and other such craft cannot be transported to the ground due to the fact that their systems are integrated into my ships.

Definately, i think our timescale should allow space travel but star destroyers are OTT. A single one of those behemoths could decimate any ground force with little or no return fire, i think all the fighting should be on earth, but dropping troops via space is fine. Late PMT is the line in the sand, as its the only place we all have the technology to compete in.
Bastion Prime
01-10-2005, 00:44
No Star Destroyer of any type will fire on any ground forces whatsoever. Their combat role in all of this will be to knock out, or capture and re-programme, the Satellite Blanket. I thought I'd made this reasonably clear already, oh well.
Also, StormTroopers will be equipped with advanced PMT weaponry (well, I say advanced, I really mean stuff similar to that our allies use, which actually is in itself advanced) that is in appearance just like the FT counterparts, except they don't fire lasers. Well, the really heavy stuff will, but that's about it. Regular troops will utilize a devastating mixture of PMT and FT for maximum damage. Also, aircraft (TIEs, Skiprays etc) utilize a mixture of FT technology and PMT stuff. Hey, I'm adaptable. ;)

From the office of Impudence Eradication
6240 Rue Champs-De-République
Verum, RNC Federal District 14556
With Regards to Southeastasia:
Unfortunately, Southeastasia, our bureaucratic foreign relations commission is currently on vacation and has yet to approve of our important agreements.
Hence, our financial backing of the Syndicate and/or Corporate Entente is still in place and we have moved to DEFCON 2 calling for the deployment of a mobilized peace keeping force of:
350 x Axium Class Super Dreadnoughts
500 x Gemini Class Destroyers
50 x LTFB Carrier Transports (Local To Foreign Terrestrial Body) Troop and Naval Transport
300,000 Quell-Offensive (Peace Keeping) Troops are being prepared and mobilized.
Explanation on PFRNC Capital Ships and Munitions (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/PFRNC_Capital_Ships)
This is purely for our potential defense - due to the fact that Joint Conglomerates has a large millitary base and facilities right outside of our capital city of Verum. We believe it is likely this base will come under attack by your foreign invasion forces. The nation does not wish for an open conflict, but an attack on us or our allies will result in swift action. We appreciate your understanding and we remain explicitly neutral.

OOC: Um, what's the point of using your capital ships when Southeastasia's leader, people and allies really only interested in capturing the board of FJC? (the only reason they mobilized the army and contacted their allies was because they knew that the board was going to garner support from the international community) As far as the characters know, Stryker and his cronies are still in there. Unless of course, they retreated to that base near Verum, then they may have to invade.
OOC: Screw 'The Plan'.
As it seems that suddenly our civil war will become a long slugfest, the 636,000 Troopers, and the air corps and reserve forces are all being recalled.
OOC: If USSEA really wants to know why I really joined FJC, it was to balance things. But meh, they're probably going to stay alive without us.

Bastion Prime
01-10-2005, 17:35
If the National Commonwealth's ships open fire on my fleet, hostilities will be opened between our two states and ships will be dispatched to ensure you do not cause further harm to the Imperial Fleet. Do not underestimate the firepower of my fleet, especially the Super Star Destroyers. If necessary, we can call upon a great many other vessels which have not been allocated to the war, to deal with the threat you pose.
And you should not underestimate our Grand Admirals and Chief Military Tacticians. Tactical geniuses in their own right, selected from all over the Imperium from all walks of life, they are even now developing strategies and tactics to effectively counter those we know the National Commonwealth has used, and has in reserve (but will probably be forced to use in a conflict with us).
We hope you do not interfere with Bastion Prime's space operations in this conflict, we would hate for the death toll to be higher than is necessary. If we sense we cannot win against your forces in space (and TBH it is likely a stalemate will be reached), we have a peace deal to offer your nation, wherein neither space force engages the other, but operates purely for the benefit of its ground (or aerial) forces . The deal also includes various trade deals, and a pledge on both sides not to act in a hostile manner towards the other in other conflicts.

by the way, Nistolonia, the notion of an "orbital bombardment" is hardly FT. one of the biggest questions the UN (the real one) is dealing with right now is whether or not nations have the right to weaponize space. as it stands, the US and others are already engaged in missile-launching satellite system projects.
