The explosion immediatly incinerated 20 office workers as well as Chavez's 3 kids, who were in the living room watching T.V. Then a large riot erupted when 5 men masked in a red scarves attacked a patrol of Black Robe soldiers in Jula. The 3 Black Robes immediatly gunned down the unarmed attackers which sparked an even larger crowd to gather. Around 9 p.m. a large group of armed gunmen stormed the Interior Ministers office and immediatly took over.

16,000 Black Robe Soldiers

330 fighter/bombers
60 Artillery units
900 engineers

OoC: What tech is this? If this is Modern/Post Modern (2000 to 2020) then:

IC (If applicable):

We are greatly disappointed by this extremely violent attack. Our nation of Potty 5 wishes to send aid to help in the fight against these terrorist. We are mobilizing 10,000 of our elite Armored Infantry Imperial Guard troops under Commandant Zeek Rajio.

These troops are very well suited for fighting in riot like conditions as their advanced (expensive and heavy) armor is resilient to most small arms fire. Only 5,000 are actually front line combat troops the rest are support.

If permission is granted we will be sending these troops as well as their equipment and vehicles in 20 of our AIDI Phoenix 226’s. These are large aircraft (about the same size as an An-225, 600 or so tons) so we will need to know the closest airport capable of handling them.

By the way I am General Obnus Rajio, Minister of Foreign Matters. I am sending this message on behalf of my emperor Fat Monkey 13. Commandant Zeek Rajio is my son and a capable commander.
-General Obnus Rajio

PS: Note we need to know the closest safe airport...

(If MT)

Head of Forces Jackson McAbb sends his deepest regrets for your nation and wish to send 115,000 soldiers to help rid your nation of these rebels.

74th Infantry/1,011th Armoured Outfit : 34,000
7th Marine : 68,000
Special Operation Team(s) (SOT) : Appox. 3 Outfits of 30ish.

Then the remaining amount of soldiers will mainly be peacekeepers of the 33rd and 1,012th Peacekeeper Outfits.


As an end note, the actions of Turetel could carry a deeper undercurrent if you are not careful you could get swept away.
