The Storm of Retribution (Closed: Attn Anti-Kraven members and Kraven scum)
All OOC posts in the proper thread from now on please.
=========================================
The Emperor stood on the bridge of the IYS Anathros, watching as the last glimpse of the Eädhan shipyards disappeared from sight.
All that he had planned was proceeding to schedule. The nation of Archare and its near uncountable resources had been captured less than 18 hours ago, and now the remaining available ships of Empire were gathering under his command just off the coast of Yallak.
On the port, a semi-built ship sat in dry dock. A replacement for the Viraat, scuttled at Xirnium. The losses suffered by the Empire would soon be returned to the Kraven Corporation with more fury and destruction than they could ever expect.
Balor raised his hand in signal to the Captain standing next to him.
“Transmit destination co-ordinates to all vessels. All ahead full.”
The Imperial Fleet stretched across the entire horizon, hundreds of vessels all with a single objective. Revenge. But where should the first blow fall? Not where expected, that’s for sure. An example must be made, one that would last the ages, one that all people now and forever would remember. To threaten the Empire is death.
Slowly the Anathros veered out from the harbor into the endless lengths of the open sea.
The fleet had spent all day and night traveling at full power. Their objective lay so close they would be able to see it soon enough. In less than an hour they would began a mass slaughtering of enemies.
Military, civilians, pets – it no longer mattered who died in this war. Anything and everything loyal to Kraven would burn.
Imperial Fleet, Location: Classified
Balor looked on as the Anathros’ tactical system displayed a map of the fleet approaching a nearby coastline, just 130 km infront off its current location.
“Hold here.”
The quiet throbbing of the nuclear reactors disappeared and the fleet rapidly came to a stop. With a single word, Operation Silver Anvil would begin. Here the hammer would strike at the Empire’s foes. Here within reach of the slave nation of Torontia.
Across the length of the fleet, cruise missile launchers began to lock on to major population centers and vital targets. Cities, airfields, railways, major roads, known defensive positions, ports and harbors.
Balor stand emotionless in his seat. Torontia had not only ignored his offers to join the Empire, but had sided with the Kraven Corporation in attacking his territory. Without so much as a second thought for the millions that would die, he said the word.
“Fire”
In fact, that was not true. He thought about the millions that would die – it was his plan – to wipe every last enemy of Yallak from existence.
All eight hundred vessels opened fire, sending volley after volley of massive warheads screaming towards the enemy. Torontia, as a nation, would not survive the repercussions of their actions.

HOLY SHIT!!!!!
I was expecting a more small scale attack of this kind from you lot when it would look like we would be winning the war!
I presume these a nuclear ICBMs your firing at me?
How many missiles in total?
Will Torontia's current anti ICBM defesive system work against this, my system is a copy of Prez. Reagans 'Star Wars' satellite sheild, with our own anti ICBM missiles and advanced rader network.
Why though, go all nuclear on me? So far I have ONLY used conventional weapons.
I was not planning to going with WMDs in the Xirnium war until this weekend.
Also, the international community may come down on YOU!
I predict no more allies for you, apart from your puppets and those looney communist whackjobs in Kahanistan.

Phewww!
Ok of a few thousand cruise missiles are heading my way, big deal!
A million dumb civilians dead, Torontia can cope with!
Most of my people are homeless and tramps anyways!
As long as I can get my more richer citizens to the bunkers, nothing to worry about!

OOC: If he hits military targets the danger is evident. However if civilians are dying in the millions and you abandon them. Well that is just asking for revolution if Yallak supports it or pushes for it.
Edit: Yikes just missed the OOC thread, everyting else will go there.
Moments from impact, the missiles began their final runs against the designated targets.
The Emperor watched on the tactical display, tracking the missiles which appeared as white dots moving across the screen, as the news of the Torontian leaders retreat came through.
After a moments hesitation, he turned to one of his officers.
"Destroy the missiles"
"My Lord"
Quickly the officer complied, and seconds later the missiles erupted in massive balls of flames. From the bridge of the Anathros the sky looked as if it was ripped apart by the very sun. There was sure to be some minor damage due to the closeness of the weapons to their targets, but complete destruction had been averted.
Balor turned from the bridge window, and began to leave the room.
“At least where ahead of schedule now. I set aside two weeks for this battle. Captain take us in to a port.”
He shut the door behind him. He had meant to send an example to Kraven, but he doubted this would have the desired effect. At the least he hoped that such a swift defeat of an ally would give the corporation something to think about.
