OOC: Leafanistani Civil War Recruitment Thread

Pages : [1] 2

Its been clear, with PETA blowing shit up left and right, and civil rights at an all time low Leafanistan is failing. Its Parliament can't sastify the massive population. While the territories remain loyal, those in the mainland are getting angry.

So there are going to be factions obviously, and a good ole massacre to start the Civil War.

Reformists

Members of the Confederate Socialist Reform Party. They are pushing for a Democratic Socialist state and toward a program of peace with the world and isolationism. However, they are conversely ruthless with their practices and will do anything to hold onto power as it becomes clear later.

They want to leave all alliances including the SWC and isolate leafanistan.

Alliance

The National Liberation Party, the Labour Party (Facists) have allied to lead a revolt against the current government and they are mostly backed by the territories whose Parliaments they control. They want a Facist state, obviously the Leafanistani Red Mafia (Redfellas) are in opposition.

They distrust foreigners and want to leave the SWC or 'encourage' them to change to a facist system.

Communists

Arguably they are the weakest in power, holding very few seats except in the tiny territory of the Leafanistani Algeristan Strip. However, they appeal to the idealistic youth. They also have heavy ties with the Red Brigade terrorist group.

A grassroots movement they lack a consistent opinion on the SWC.

Loyalists

Backers of High Father, the original leader of Leafanistan for nearly 200 years, seemingly immortal. They want a return to the Father Knows Best State, with a benevolent dictator (High Father), a limited Senate, and strong economic reform to a partial command economy. They form the military elite and are probably the best armed faction with the support of hte hardliners in Leafanistan.

Very supportive of alliances with foreign nations.

Fringe Parties

Contains such colourful characters such as the Sword of God (alliance of Christian extremists), the Leafanistani Red Mafia, Prophet's Light (Muslim extremists), and the Scientologists. While the Red Mafia is the best armed, they lack the support from the religious crazies these people have.

These guys just want what they want.

I'm holding recruitment for allies to RP and support certain factions. Enemies (thats right Sahari....whatever, and Frozopia you can come too) can also help. I'm also hoping to expand the underlying collapse and expound a bit more of my nation. Recruitment for the descent into chaos...begin!

Any specific support group? (You seem a bit young, and don't you have a terrorist RP going on at hte same time?)
Union Canada
09-02-2006, 03:59
Would support the Reformists.

Also, have a terrorist thing going, have peacekeepers in another country and am almost on economic collapse.
The Lone Alliance
09-02-2006, 04:34
The Lone Alliance would provide covert aid to the Loyalists, and provide a government in Exile if need be.
They don't agree with the Socialist stance in isolationism.

The Black hand would provide enough aid to keep the Mafia from being wiped out. (They need their contacts.)
McKagan
09-02-2006, 04:37
McKagan would support... I don't know. The most pro-SWC nation. We'd have alot of Special Forces running around blowing the fuck out of various things.
Nistolonia
09-02-2006, 04:37
Nistolonia might send in some SpecOps forces, though probably more to take advantage of the conflict then to help resolve it.
Leafanistan
09-02-2006, 04:37
^^ Imperializing, that would put you up against a lot of the other factions. Want to try a good old fashioned invade a territory while chaos reigns thing?

With the whole fluid time thing I'll try to stagger the RP with campaigns, such as trying to win territories, one province at a time and ocassionally launch a Tet Offensive style attack. I think the outer territories like Saharistan, Rovonia, and the Algeristani Strip should revolt first.

Saharistani was Muslim Extremist along with Algeristan.

And Rovonia was facist. They don't have good memories about their original ruling parties.

Saharistan would be Loyalist.

Algeristan communist.

And Rovonia will be up for grabs.

The Loyalists are adament about having a higher presense in foreign affairs and High Father is a personal friend of most of your national leaders.

I take it they control most of the heavy military hardware? The navy, etc? I'd probably support them just to gain a safe base of operations.

However, I feel it is time to make my nation a bit more evil, so I don't know.

Yes, Supreme Commander of all Confederate Naval Forces Admiral Sandra O'Toole is a hardline Loyalist and is one of the leading people trying to stop Defense spending from being cut. Was married to John Alleulia, divorced and she changed back to her maiden name.

Field Marshall of all Confederate Armies is General Zheng Xiao, a Reformist and an aggressive one.

Air and Space Marshall Samantha Arcturus is the oldest daughter of High Father and a loyalist. Though she does have a Reformist MP for a husband.

Field Marshall for Marine Units Colonel Idi Maklov is a communist but doesn't buy into it entirely and publically supports the Facists.

Captain John Alleulia is currently commander of the Confederate Guard and is another hardline Loyalist. He divorced Sandra O'Toole 4 years previous and tensions are still high.

Missile Command is a joint organization and no one person controls it. They will remain neutral as neither faction would want a nuclear engagement.

The Civil Defense Initiatives are controlled by local Army garrisons.

(Fixed a mixup)
Leafanistan
09-02-2006, 05:01
The leader of hte Reformists is Cynthia Ives, currently the Prime Minister.

The leaders of the Alliance are Retired Colonel Maxwell Vienna from the National Liberation Party and John Fox from the Labour Party.

There is no leader of hte Communist party.

Obviously the leader of hte Loyalist faction is High Father himself.

Red Mafia is secretly controlled by Cinncinatti Jones of Division 39 of the Office of Naval Intelligence.

Sword of Light and Prophet's Light have no real leader but a variety of figures hold the 'high cards' so to speak.

Currently:

Amazonian Beasts: Loyalist
Union Canada: Reformist
McKagan: Loyalist
Nistolia: Independent

Well, generally dictatorships don't fare too well for the people's rights, but High Father was truly a benevolent dictator, IMO, and he is a personal friend of my President. Beyond that, we didn't have any qualms with the High Father regime, so I guess you can sign us up for the Loyalists.

Leaf, would you mind if I used some tech that could be considered early PMT? I'm talking mainly my Spectral Operatives and my hypersonic high-altitude bomber.

Those 'ghosts' are a bit insane, but they go well with the whole High Father's whole life is a livign torment and he manifests fire unwillingly.

I need communists, and facists, what happened to all the evil nations?

Okay talked it over.

The Lone Alliance will Back the Loyalists.
The Black Hand of Nod plans to guarentee the Survival of the Leafanistani Red Mafia, as well as helping them gain more power. (At the expense of the other smaller groups)

IIRC, you told me that High Father was the threat to the stability of Leafanistan....why is that?
SkyCapt
09-02-2006, 15:16
Ok... While the Loyalists don't exactly share our point of view... And we're not exactly Allies... The government has decided to back them up (I tried to overrule it, but oh well :p), wanting to see the 'current' Leafanistan survive.

So yeah, I'll be with the Loyalists.

09-02-2006, 18:17

Juumanistra
09-02-2006, 19:28
Juumanistra would be interested in bankrolling the Sword of God: Nothing so conspicuous as military advisors or SpecForces, just cash and armaments. If you're looking for people to provide that kind of support in the RP, that is.
Red Tide2
09-02-2006, 20:21
Ill join in two different ways.

The Loyalists will recieve support from the Red Tide Goverment. They would probably deploy a Carrier Battlegroup, a Wing of Fighters, and a Corps sized ground formation(that is, 175,000 men(excluding logistics personnel) formed into three Infantry Divisions(which are actually truck based infantry), one Mechanized-Infantry Division, and one Armored Division(20,000 men per division), as well as three extra brigades of three different types(5,000 men per brigade)).

The other way is the Red Tide Mafia, who would join the Leafanistan Mafia.... obviously.
Frozopia
09-02-2006, 20:31
BTW I've decided to update my military so I can compete with other MT players. Its come to my attention that I was RPing a long way behind everyone else. That has changed.
I dont know what I will deploy, probably not as much as Red Tide.
Aequatio
09-02-2006, 20:39
If possible, I'd be willing to back the Loyalists with my own military. My contribution would be something along the lines of Red Tide's, Corps-level deployment with naval and air force units.
McKagan
09-02-2006, 22:24
Does everyone have to go deploying godlike numbers of troops? I'd like a Special Forces/Character RP; myself. But it really depends on how Leafanistan starts the RP.
Frozopia
09-02-2006, 22:30
Im the same. I prefer smaller numbers.
McKagan
09-02-2006, 22:34
Im the same. I prefer smaller numbers.

I'm not saying everyone has to limit themselves to 14 man Operations; but ARMIES are totally out of this, IMO. The most McKagan would deploy would be MAYBE a base worth of Special Forces; by Leafanistani consent (since we're allies and all.) I don't know how everyone else would go about it.
Red Tide2
09-02-2006, 22:35
OOC:Heh, you should be thankful, most of the 'veterans' of NS have a tendency to deploy MILLIONS of troops in one go... if Leafanistan wants I can tone it down to two Mechanised-Infantry Divisions.
Velkya
09-02-2006, 22:36
Would you mind if I bring in a mercenary(s) into this? I've always wanted to do an RP with a freelance fighter sqaudron.

Well if I'm ever in a war with one of these "verterans" I'll sleep well at night knowing my bombing efforts will be much more efficient. :)
Velkya
09-02-2006, 22:39
It's sad, people don't know just how much of a logistical system you need to feed and supply THAT many troops. I'll be damned if a fleet or army ever actually runs out of ammo or food on NS.
McKagan
09-02-2006, 22:39

Now THAT is an idea. I've got Avalt Security International who are at times called in to fill in gaps where McKagan needs Special Forces! They don't have to follow any "rules" or war, and can't have any real international sanctions.

EXACTLY. I've "officially" got a 15 million man fighting force. Do you think I could move all of those troops to your backyard? I like how these super-massive-mega-awesome Battle Fleets go around the world, from country to country, expelling tons upon tons of ammunition, but NEVER run out.
Velkya
09-02-2006, 22:42
I was thinking of working for the Mafia, they would loan my pilots out to the warring factions for cash, which the pilots and the Mafia would split.

I love Novacom. Mobile suits, flying dragons, it never fucking ends...

Anyhow, we're hijacking Leafy's thread a bit, let's get back on topic a bit.
Novacom
09-02-2006, 23:30
It is called creativity, something which seems to be extremly lacking when it comes to creating armies, every tom dick and harry has what is in effect a cookie cutter army, you can claim that every army is different because of designs but at the core its all the same, jet fighters, *invincible* tanks APC's and all the like. I will point out what you so aptly named Flying Dragons are exceedingly rare. Of course if your tired of RPing with me I hear AMF is after a new victim...

BTW I have an Evil Admiral and his Principality who would be very pleased to support the Facists, I only have in mind to deploy several small isolated divisions which would operate independantly, however though it would depend on what everyone else is deploying, and from the sounds of things big armies may be on the loose, it would be nice to keep this low-key and later on perhaps spark a larger conflict.
Velkya
09-02-2006, 23:37
The reason everyone has a cookie cutter army is because it's the only thing that works, and mobile suits are flying dragons could never be built in MT or PMT, that's why you don't see mechs in anyone's arsenal, (except Bretton, and he RPs them with obviously limitations, which you do not) they are soley FT. And don't even get me started on the sub-dreadnoughts and SDs. You're one of the better RPers on the site, but your army and navy is pure wank, I'm afraid to say.

At any rate, I'll most likely serve the Mafia, I'll TG Leafanistan the details after I get back from soccer.
Novacom
09-02-2006, 23:49
My army isn't in the slightest, the sub-dreadnoughts and most of the things you have problems with is seperate to Novacom Proper, and I have weaknessess in my designs, it's a case of discovering them as you have a habbit of claiming OOC knowledge in IC posts, do not accuse me of wank this is not a thread where that is even wanted or needed, so stop the flamebaiting, I have little patience for it as of late.

I will clarify one more time, Novacom is seperate from Admiral Kukonois completly and utterly, ICly the 2 virulently hate each other perhaps moreso than KC and Xirnium ICly hate each other.

Your concerns are becomming irrelevant anyway, Admiral Kukonois has transofmred his rebellion into a Nation, The Principality of Zeon, which if Leafistan will allow, will assisst the Facists and perhaps the Loyalists as well, perhaps with the intention of escalating things and playing the sides against each other.

10-02-2006, 00:38
Currently:

McKagan: Loyalist
Halberdgardia: Loyalist
The Lone Alliance: Loyalist
Skycapt: Loyalist
Red Tide: Loyalist

The SWC will get preference for this, but I want to limit deployment to 5 Divisions or just barely 2 Corps. (Under 100,000 ground forces) For each of you, though easily that could mean over a million men.

I'd like to get more Reformists or Facists; the Alliance is all for capitalism.

Aequetio: Loyalist
Amazonian Beasts: Loyalist

Union Canada: Reformist

Sniper Country: Sword of God

Willink: Communist

I don't want to stretch you guys out so just pick either Mafia or Loyalist.

The Black Hand of Nod: Mafia
Red Tide's Redfellas: Mafia

Frozopia: Facist

Nistolia: Independent (mind being a Facist or Reformist?)

Like I said the game will be campaigns, it will start with the collapse as people protest new policies by the Reform party, they'll be a Tiananmen Square style masscre. The revelation of where High Father has been. And then the Loyalists rise up and strike at the Reformists first.

The Siberian Campaign will probably be the first, the Marines on the coastline will try to get Frozopian troops to land while Army units strike at them and the Air Force and Navy harasses all parties.

You have a sort of bad rep around here, but the Facists need the help.

Frozopia seems to be well prepared for the cold weather, so everyone dress their soldiers warmly.

10-02-2006, 00:47
Depending on Amestria's IC and OOC status independent of this RP (I have four RP’s at present), it might decide to intervene in some form or it might decide not to...

Put Amestia down as an interested observer, just in case…
SkyCapt
10-02-2006, 01:40
Alright then...

Just as a sort of reference, I'm deploying about 2,148 troops, not counting logistics and crap like that. It'll be about 6 Battalions of regulars (1,152) (1 Incorporated Army Battalion = 2 Companies; Each Company = 3 Platoons; Each Platoon = about 2 Squads, and each squad is 12 soldiers), and 2 Dragoon (Armor) Companies (240 Tankers + 60 Tanks per Company [4 Tankers per Tank]).

If Leafy says it's alright, I may bring in more stuff if the thing gets a bit rough for the troops.

McKagan
10-02-2006, 02:26
Shouldn't we just RP this first before declaring how many troops will be there? I know it's just trying to make a good RP, but how would the Leafanistani government find a loophole to approve of landing troops in the nation? McKagan is probably going to ask to deploy a COV Combat Team or 3 to form a garrison somewhere. We'll do details later, but I've got something in mind.
Halberdgardia
10-02-2006, 03:07
Any limitations on fleets, Leaf? I don't remember your country being landlocked, so expect a large Naval Expeditionary Force to back up a force of, oh, 25,000 troops (excluding logistics). They will, in turn, be supported by an as-yet-undetermined number of tanks and aircraft.
McKagan
10-02-2006, 03:09
I don't want an RP where one person sends in 1500 ships and stops the naval function of the RP from developing. I'm probably going to do the same as Hal, here, with a few AC Carriers, lots of Frigates, and a few Destroyers.

I don't mind. Hell, that was a fun game, if not a bit short.

Who the hell said I'm giving up, I just needed some time to recuperate from last night. Whatever factions are there will support you on the ground. Though you'll need to compensate for their lack of other things. The Army has the advantage being het largest force and with supprotive conscripts they'll be huge. But they lack air support. So on and so forth.

Their will be coniving and character based side stories.

Near Final List

Loyalist

You have the support of Leafanistani Saharistan. You'll work with High Father, the 'Head of State', and his main military support will come from Air and Space Marshall Samantha Arcturus, Admiral Sandra O'Toole of the Navy, and Captain John Alleluia of the Confederate Guard.

Nearly the entire SWC will be there:

McKagan, Halberdgardia, Red Tide (Dinoflaggelates am I rite?!), the Lone Alliance (in middle of other war, will probably support the Mafia as they try to profit), and SkyCapt

Reformist

You have the support of Leafanistani Wasser in Rovonia. You'll work with Cynthia Ives, Prime Minister of the Confederate Socialist Reform Party. Field Marshall Zheng Xiao (a Chinese joke, think about the meanings of that name) of the Confederate Army which currently stands around 2.8 million and the various conscripts he can pull in. Most likely those in Reserves and the People's Guard will support him if he calls on them.

Union Canada, Aequetio (to balance them out against the SWC), Nistolonia (but secretly trying to take over Leafanistan), Nerotika (Who posted an IC instead of an OOC)

Alliance/Facist

You have the support of Southern Leafanistan which for years has wanted more autonomy. The leaders are from Southeastern Leafanistan and Southwestern Leafanistan, and are Retired Colonel Maxwell Vienna, and John Fox respectively. They have the suport of the Marines lead by Field Marshall for Marine Units Colonel Idi Maklov. They don't necessarily want a united Facist Leafanistan, they will settle for greater autonomy in their affairs.

Amazonian Beasts (again, balance, if you have a significant issue with them you can join Reformist, but Loyalist is a bit overloaded at this moment), Frozopia (probably try to land troops wtih Marine support, then estabilsh an airbase)

Communist

You have the support of the Algeristani Strip, a tiny piece of land in mostly Halberdgardian Algeristan. The Communists have no one leader but they are a powerful grassroots movement and are backed by the Terrorist Group Red Brigade. They may eventually have support from Colonel Idi Maklov if the Communists decide to ally with the Alliance. If they do not they'll want fully autonomy and want to become Red Algeristan.

Willink

Fringe Parties

Prophet's Light (Muslim Extremists)

You have the support of remnants of Global Jihad and a few extremists in the territories of Algeristan and Saharistan. Your influence doesn't extend far.

Possibly Saharistan-clone

Sword of God (Christian Extremists)

The most prevalent extremist movement, they have a strong backing in Rovonia and in Leafanistan.

I changed it around being a more high-tech, mobile force while keeping the fanatical nature of my soldiers.

As in other "MT/PMT" threads, we've seen a couple of supermanish people. So deus ex machina to save the militia.

High Father was originally Arkady Arcturus, a captain in the Soviet Confederation Motor Rifles, he was chosen for Project Sickle and was surgically altereed. His brain was irradiated in certain areas and metal was implanted in his body. He was given gene threrapy. He lay in agony for 5 months before beginning psionic training. He had improved strenght and limited telekenisis and he used that to augment his strength. His best ability was pyrokinesis and clairvoyance. HOwever, as with all the subjects, they deteriated rapidly, High Father lasted the longest. And as the Confederation collapsed he founded Leafanistan, and former Confederation scientists helped stabilize his condition and put it on a much slower deteoriation. He stayed in suspended animation for years as clever image manipulation kept him 'alive' so to speak. As he aged, he married and eventually his kids left him. Then as the National Liberation Party was ousted, the Reformists plotted against him. They gained an ally in the Army who was guarding the mansion at the time and imprisoned him and took control of Leafanistan that way. However, High Father nearly escaped before they were able to stop him. They kept him on tranquilizers and beat him to keep him weak. he was in this state as a combination of lies and 'foreign business' kept his children away.

His children were told he had gone into 'extended meditation' and was not to be disturbed.

The Army had betrayed him, the Reform Party had betrayed him, and everyone else didn't have a clue as the governmetn spun a web of lies and entered wars to keep everyone's attention elsewhere.

When the army came up, adn saw him, they were originally terrified but followed orders. The schism between those whosupported the Parliament and those who supported High Father had been growing for some time, this is just the logical conclusion

You're kidding me. You are this stupid and petty to do this over an internet role-play? First off, you did post something about some Nickolopian spaceships and landing them. Relative to MT/PMT the spaceships he sells are tremendous, earning the huge spaceships moniker. The 'n Shit referes to the battalions you landed. Which I didn't approve.

Nah, the Harris I use for Urban Combat has a 120mm Cannon so the turret turns alot faster. It's still a tank (not a light one, either) so it has heavy enough armor to survive 30mm and probably a few main gun hits, and a big enough cannon to blow the fuck out of anything else.

Is that really an issue to a plane flying at 50,000 feet? I can see how it would be an issue to the people trying to FIND the targets, which would mean satellite tracking wouldn't be very useful or anything, but people on the ground could still laser designate things. Also, it works the same. What kind of AA system could see through a massive ice storm to shoot at something flying at 50,000 feet?

Also, it works the same. What kind of AA system could see through a massive ice storm to shoot at something flying at 50,000 feet?

The LASER designator would be scattered far too hard by the snow and it would be a huge red line back to the designator, unless you are using non-visible spectrum. The missiles would be unable to get a reading until they were below the cloud cover at around 1000-1200 feet. I'm saying that airstrikes would be limited to high altitude bombardment via radio designation. The old fashioned way, just call out coordinates and a bomber above will drop the bombs.

They're not supersoldiers. Really. For most purposes, its really only of value in non-war RPs. In war it really doesnt make a difference until you get down to squad combat, and even then its not much.

They're flying in by Viper VTOL. 6 Vipers.

Their main objective will be the Air Defense batteries. They lack the technology Red Tide and the Coastal Artillery has. They can use that to secure the city against further Air Force strikes.

Then they will symbolically retake Memorial Square and then move to recapture the Parliament buildign. Currently HIgh Father is stationed within the Parliament building to help plan.

They dropped their cargo about 3 miles off shore. The Nistolonians have small demi-cargo subs (about 2 meters long) to transport their weapons, etc. They're all wearing Nistolonian shadowsuits with breathmasks, so they'll have to come up to the surface every once in a while to get more air.

They'll most likely not run into any major problems until they come onto shore and the water starts freezing, tehy are traveling in half-frozen water. Most liekly by shore they will have to punch out of the ice.

I'm not doing an airdrop. I've got that massive (well, actually it's a small tactical unit) of Marines off the coast. They're going to do an amphibious landing somewhere and head there. If you don't think the main force would be able to get there in time, i'll send the MISA's ahead to start flanking and the like. They're my frontline, commando Special Forces. They'd be attacking supply lines and the line. You know their form of transportation? I came up with this during Frozopia. Take those Naval SEAL sand buggy's, box them in, add a heater and uparmor the turret and BOOM... SNOW CART!

Oh hell... i'm going to have one of those lose control and fly through the ice.

Where do you think I could land my tanks and heavy things at? I'm going to put the Commando's in over the ice, but I don't think that would work well with a 50 ton tank.

Got it. It'll still take a while for the Marines to get to Concord (or to any viable fighting position) so i'll send my MISA's ahead to blow stuff up. Could we arrange a Special Forces aspect to this RP where a group of my commando's attack a vital supply depot or something? I won't have any air support at all (since no one really can, at least and know what they're hitting), it'll just be between 14 and 20 MISA's sneaking through the flank and blowing some stuff up. We could use that to stall the offensive and give the Loyalists a chance to counter attack.

In a way. It started out as the navy, and then after a while realized an Air Force was just as important. It's the one that got the most recent, most large cut of funding. However, after Torontia and Frozopia the IMA and MIMC have both gotten massive upgrades. Right now we're about even: I just use IMAF in a way that makes it a very pivotol force.

McKagan Imperial Marine Corps - What i'm deploying in this case.

Same here. I have a defense budget of over 20 trillion: which is alot larger than some MUCH older nations. I use that to maintain that I will, the majority of the time, have better weapons than the guy i'm shooting. I do use my nations size as a slight advantage on just the scale that last week I had four or five different engagements going on at once but you'll never see me deploy four million troops.

Domestic design. They're not much different from Praetonia's; I think. I got rid of most of that class of ship I had after Prae closed the shipyard for a while. I needed to upgun my frigate numbers, didn't want to have multiple classes, but couldn't order his. I simply came out with my own. Mine follows my own design peremeters though. It looks like a DDX and is designed for stealth so it comes out to a very combat ready design.

Rise, rise threads, I'm sorry, I've been a bit busy, the snowstorm fucked up my Harvard interview and now I have little to no time for it. And combined with an Adelphi interview coming up....yeah.

The 3rd Army is Xiao's desperate attempt to regain face after the "Fleet" failure thanks to McKagan forces, and the loss of the capital and the capture of the Parliament. Combine this with territorial revolution (which will be elaborated in another thread), Field Marshall Xiao needs to look good or else Cynthia Ives is going to have him removed and replaced.

The 3rd Army is a mixture of regular forces, and conscripts. It consists of 3 Corps.

Their main objective is to capture the Parliament, Memorial Square, and High Father while securing or destroying anything else. Their secondary objective for the 23rd Infantry is to capture the rings of MDM-4 and Leafanistani built AA defenses to help secure the city.

23rd Infantry Corps

Lt. General Valerie Ng

53rd Mechanized Division (Pulled from Reserve)
56th Anti-Aircraft Division (Pulled from Reserve)
9th Mobile Infantry Division (Pulled from Active Duty)
Conscripted: 108th & 109th People's Guard Battalion (Acting as rear guard for supply lines)

Total Strength: 61,500 Soldiers

15th Artillery Corps

Lt. General Ayesha Miko

14th Heavy Artillery Division
19th Mobile Artillery Division
Conscripted: 86th and 89th People's Guard Battalions (Supply Line)

Total Strength: 42,000 Soldiers

12th Urban Assualt Division

Lt. General Wade Jackson

3rd Air Cavalry Division
10th Air Cavalry Division
14th Mobile Infantry Division

Conscripted: 3rd People Guard Division

Total Strength: 80,000 Soldiers

Total Army Strength: 183,500 Soldiers

Will update soon with Division stats, working on other "Affairs of state".

Cynthia Ives is currently negotiating a deal with the Alliance, defeat High Father, and they get near full autonomy except in times of war.

That's the reason we're having a wild shooting gallery on the beach and not really hitting anything important.

Alot of it is still in Libertad; and it's bound to change a bit. That's only 2 MBT Divisions and 1 LBT Division, plus some APC's and ICV's.

Once I push ashore i'll start editing things as I rotate things in and out. I'll probably end up with a few more tank divisions and eventually I'll set up some artillery.

Nothing, really. The most action has came in the form of IMAF decimating a Rebel Leafanistani Fleet and the IMN Capturing the sailors who survived.

Hey Leaf, any idea how many people I would have captured? I was thinking, if everyone in that AIRCRAFT CARRIER surrendered, and not alot of people were killed on the ship during the missile attack, wouldn't that be something like 5000 sailors? That's assuming it was fully manned. Also, it depends how many surrendered/survived/were on the destroyers as well. Are we going to call it something like 5-6000?

That's because the cruiser had stealth paint. My AA units would have taken Velkya's aircraft out by taking advantage of the poor weather and a few stealth cloaking devices, along with strategy, to turn them into burning, descending-to-the-ground, mounds of metal.

The Xeons (designed by Tyrandis) are extemely difficult to detect and therefore hit, so I doubt the SAMs that you are using (Kriegzimmer Praetorian models, correct?) will make much impression.

Ah, but you see, Leafanistan has said that the weather is so terrible that precision air strikes aren't an option. That's the reason we're having a wild shooting gallery on the beach and not really hitting anything important. If precision Air Strikes were an option I would have flown GLI-76 Falcons off my carrier and destroyed the armored formations before even touching a beachhead.

I really don't like to use precision weapons on armored columns, I prefer submunition launchers and the like, it's much cheaper and more effective.

Fortunately, we're allied, but if we were enemies, your aircraft would be in heaps of scrap metal long before they could even see my forces.

Technically speaking, it's not Velkyan pilots that I've sent to Zedistan, but pilots who have defected to the Leafy mafia. So shoot at them all you want. :D

You don't get it. I've been under the impression that it's going to be a real problem for aircraft to even OPERATE in and around Leafanistan. Your planes won't be there uncontested because of my carriers; but I doubt we'll even be able to fly at all.

It's winter there, correct?

Winter, yes, but Leaf has also been posting like there's one bitch of a winter storm going on too with high winds and stuff. I'm thinking that if the planes are able to fly at all they'll have almost no targeting capabilities to strike at things on the ground. You'd have to be doing massive carpet bombings and the like to hit a single column, which is costly and highly ineffective.

I'm probably just going to DENY everyone else air superiority but not try to gain/exploit it myself.

So? Fly above the weather.

Besides, I don't care who wins the war, just that my pilots make money.
McKagan

That's what I said, but regardless of where you fly; your target is still on the ground. It makes targeting a real bitch.

How many pilots/planes do you have (or are going to have) in Leafanistan?
Velkya
20-02-2006, 19:50
Four, at the moment. All of them are equipped with the Tyrandisian Xeon fighter aircraft, but that could change. Think of them as contract killers, highly skilled but expensive to use.

I'm also considering them being rented out to the leftists (who don't really have an airforce) as advisors of sorts to help train whatever pilots they might have on call.
McKagan
20-02-2006, 19:56
Y'know, after reading earlier in the thread, I realized that there was a limit on the number of troops we could have! Odd, considering that I was the one that pushed for it. :p *goes and fixes numbers*

Would you consider having your pilots accept a contract to hunt/kill Rebel (IE, anyone who's not loyalist) Anti-Aircraft stuff?
Velkya
20-02-2006, 20:02
OOC: Sure, as soon as Leafy introduces me to Cincinati Jones.

Port Stevens is the only non-frozen port in the area near Concord (I'm focusing on the Concord campaign at this moment) and McKagan and Red Tidean troops are already deploying from around there. A snowstorm restricts airdrops and airstrikes and the only way to get htere is via Autobahn.

Alright then, a fleet of transports carrying trucks and more transports are in order, correct?

Leaf, I know and understand that the destroyers would have made it to shore alot faster than the AC carrier, but we even RP'd the capture of people off the carrier. How many people did I get?

Isn't the carrier radioactive and nearly about to explode, you know, with radiation?
McKagan
23-02-2006, 02:37
I don't think it would be an explosion. More of a meltdown, and we sank the carrier so that it would be in the fridgid waters to cool the reactor again. Nonetheless, we RP'd the capture of those people and them returning to transports while the carrier was doing its thing (it would take a while anyway, even if it managed to.) Regardless of what it does, an undetermined number of people were on the beaches and captured by McKagan forces. The forces all retreated back via a massive evacuation. A massive McKagan fleet is sailing in to attack the artillery installations.

Regardless of what happens to a radioactive carrier a pretty far way away from McKagan (NBC Protected ships), there's still a massive number of prisoners. All I want is a number from you so I know what i'm working about.

To avoid a godmod I understand, lets say 2700 total. You did do a number on those ships.

That is acceptable. Considering that the carrier was blown to fuck, i'd say alot of people on the ship died.

High Father is stuck some place with an apparently outgunned and outnumbered army, and McKagan forces are pushing to help him. Rid Tidean Mafia is helping the Leafanistani Mafia, and a bunch of guys from teh SWC along with SkyCapt are helping Far Up Daddy as well. (:p) Oh, and Kraven and apparently Nistolonia are fighting for themselves over here as well. That's all I can remember ATM.

And McKagan is the silly git that decided he was going to set up a beachhead when he could have used Port Stevens. Now he is invading some town slightly south of Port Stevens.

Also McKagan, I meant telling me my missile losses instead of letting me RP it, but whatever, that rule is stretched and broken a lot.

I realized that earlier. The thing is that I don't want a major artillery base near my troops anyway so I couldn't leave it there. It also goes with the MIMC "ego problems" i've been working on.

Also McKagan, I meant telling me my missile losses instead of letting me RP it, but whatever, that rule is stretched and broken a lot.

I don't get it. If your missiles were IN THE AIR and attacking MY SHIP, don't I RP defending the attack and responding to it? If we're supposed to engage like that, wouldn't it also be a rule to RP a bullet traveling from the end of a rifle to a person? Or an artillery attack would last hours just to be in the air? I don't like that unless it's some sort of LONG RANGE ICBM strike. You're firing at a ship a short distance away: but it doesn't really matter. I'm silently laughing to myself at the thought of some Marines standing on a transport ship looking at Port Stevens but not being allowed to land there because some General wants zero enemy resistance.

I guess my investment in heavy naval artillery paid off, though...

That's funny, I always figured that missile losses were RPed by the defender.

Same here. Once you fire a missile it's no longer your asset anymore. If you've got to do that, then why wouldn't you have to RP bullets from a rifle the same way?
