Kraven, are you going to attack me? The only way I will join in to the fighting is, if Kraven or Whyatica attacks me. You two know I’m hostile against everything Kraven because of things that happen in Jagada.

ooc: Why would he attack you then?

Because he is an evil person. Plus, I do have many subject that would be good to use in his CP programs. If he does not attack, I will go in and attack first.

I'll be attacking you in Jagada, so you can consider the attack on the base to be the Primary phase of Aggression against the count, I will however be away for 4 days.

Velkya: As you are well aware, the Kraven army does not have an airforce to speak of, so research was poured in on effective ground air defenses, in the form of a mobile ZSU 663, now while other CIWS Style weapons are short ranged, Kraven ones are not, they have longer barrels and are designed for not really accurate fire, but longer ranges, I would also appreciate it if you would not dictate what my forces do to me.

Velkya I would also appreciate it if you don't declare what my missiles are and aren't. They're SPACE-LAUNCHED MISSILES so they're obviously protected against the heat. And, I'm not going to be stupid and use unguided missiles in space, so they are guided.

Actually, on further consideration, I'll probably have to get involved, as I border Kahanistan to the north (and don't want Kraven taking advantage of my postwar situation). Plus my Deputy Foreign Minister is in Najaster. So... may I join? Please? ;)

We could launch another front against you? that way you can get involved, but not dogpiling the main force?
Czardas
10-04-2006, 22:20
That RP became a huge, unmanageable godmodded mess and ended up with the CAD nations either being ignored or the Woodstock Pact nations pulling out because of RL pressures. Therefore, everything from the point of the abortive peace conference on has been retconned.

Besides, I'm not planning a massive operation either. I'll probably be utilising some air assets, the "prototype battlegroup" that was stationed at North Point in TSS during the invasion [~80 ships], and maybe a few ground forces... no 30 million man armies and Imperial Star Destroyers or anything like that.

Well, yes, we've just realised that basically we're going to be next if Kahanistan falls, and Father will probably realise that too, thus launching a pre-emptive strike through Transylvania or the Mediterranean to wipe us out before we come to Kahanistan's aid.

That would make a bit more sense...

Wouldn't the intense heat (and speed) make a mockery of nearly all steering systems? I mean, a hypersonic missile is hard enough to steer properly in the first place, imagine deorbiting a missile while pushing it through immense layers of superheated gases, you are asking for a miracle.

Transylvanian Air Incursion
Over ten million pounds of napalm flew across the desert sands, but with the various impurities in the desert sand, the melting point of Whyatican sand was higher than the average temperature of napalm, and the sands simply burned, with the SAM facilities remaining safe underneath.

Do you know how hot napalm is? Napalm generates temperatures 800 to 1,200 degrees Celsius. So, the sand would be burned. Doing that will heat up the surface, making your underground SAM facilities into ovens. It does not matter if they were made from steel or another metal or cement. It will be an oven because of the heat above them.

While that is true, it depends on how deep the facilities are. At some point there is enough distance that it wouldn't cause a great effect.
Whyatica
11-04-2006, 03:39
Trans, the SAM facilities, while not especially cooked, won't really work again on their next firing because of flaws in the burying/unburying system. I forgot to mention that on my IC post.
The Transylvania

Oh… that will work then. Well, you had me mad because you said the SAM sites were not harmed. So…that is why I posted what I post in here.
Whyatica
11-04-2006, 03:58
The harm will come out the next time they try to fire, namely, the innards of the SAM getting gunked by napalm-soaked sand.
Velkya
11-04-2006, 22:28
Really, enough heat and your sensitive targeting equipment will be ruined, turning your SAM batteries into nice fireworks launchers, if the fire control systems survive.
The Kraven Corporation
11-04-2006, 22:31
That is true, although the Targeting and Telementry systems could come from any other source, it would just be a matter of switching the target systems, although with such heat i suspect most of the wires to have been fried, although not in others, so it would be hit or miss with which ones actualy were guided... (no pun intended)

or unless Whyatica's Pimped my SAM SITE and has air conditioning in all of them and a bassy surround sound.....

12-04-2006, 02:53
I don't see how Drum N Bass will help him shoot down planes, but hey, whatever. :rolleyes:

There are 20 million soldiers and numerous armored vehicles moving in that direction)

I'm sorry, but that's a ludcrious number of soldiers to fit into Kahanistan, of all places.

If they're underground, that does have quite an adverse effect on communications.

Considering I stated how many soldiers I had in my first post, I don't know why you have decided to comment now. However, you can think whatever you want - I really don't care. The fact of the matter is... the battle is being fought there, so that is where you send your troops.

Just because the land itself isn't important, doesn't mean the battle isn't.
Neo Kravenites
12-04-2006, 03:05
The Liberator IIs each held twenty-five HDB-2 earthquake bombs, a clone of the United States' T-12 Earthquake bomb with a RAM/Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic skin (to negate the bomb's RADAR signature) and far more potent explosive force, almost twice as much as the original bomb, as well as the large, thick (and very resilient) penetrator cap designed to bury the bomb far enough to cause an miniature seismic event (the penetrator cap of the HDB-2 extends a quarter of the way up the bomb’s body). In addition to these more obvious improvements, the bomb was now able to be guided via an internal map of the battlefield, which was 98% compatible with a normal GPS-powered map, which allowed the weapon to be centered on an aim point with astounding accuracy. Then, it happened. The bomb bays opened, pouring five-hundred of these monsters down on the approaching enemy forces, carpeting the Neo-Kraven soldiers in millions of pounds of high explosives in a semi-aimed fashion. The Liberators, now sufficiently lightened, turned around, heading back at low=supersonic speeds to friendly airspace to rearm and refuel, as a second bomber group, this one armed with anti-tank munitions, headed up to the battle zone.

Not giving me the chance to shoot down your bombers = GMing. Thus I will ignore your attack unless you edit it.

That's not the point I'm trying to make, it's that Kahanistan is TINY, only half the size of Isreal, and you're squeezing 20 million men into it! That's flipping insane, not to mention the massive logistical and communications problems you'll be having with maintaining a 20 million man force, and you're RPing them covering huge expanses of land in only a few hours.

*sigh*

Obviously the 20 million man army isn't going to be occupying Kahanistan for an extended period of time... they are for the battle.

I am RPing the offensive forces covering the distance at roughly 45 KM (increased now). The support and logistics will be following up as the offensive forces barrel over the enemy. So, yes, it isn't technically 20 million at the front. More like 12 million. Now... stop criticizing my war plan - it is what it is.

Bomber can still drop bombs, if they are hit. All they have to do is open the bomb bay up and bombs fall to the ground. That is what my bomber pilots do. Most of those bombs would hit or not hit your forces.

I’m going to tell you something, the bays will be open before they get over the target. And about the plane being blow up, it is not fully destroyed. So stuff will fall to the Earth.

Can you tell me where your forces are? So, I don’t have to read and find out.

Because we all know that a minigun can accuratly target a supersonic aircraft flying at over 100,000 feet in the air.

It isn't about whether they OK or it not. I am bringing 20 million men... that is just a fact.

Stop aruging around it. You have a impossibly huge force that is way too large for your population and budget. Worse yet, you've deployed it in one area and seem to have the ability to move it as one cohensive unit without any of the massive delays in communication and supply that would plauge any army one-tenth it's size.

Hmm... off the top of my mind it would be saying that Whyatica's missiles weren't heat proofed.

Again, this is bogus. Explain how a hypersonic spaced launched from space has the mauvering power to strike an object flying at a similar speed inside the atmosphere.

You saying that the hypersonic missiles were travelling too fast to intercept your fighters.

They were traveling too fast. If you knew anything about this, you would realise that hypersonic objects have horrid manevering abilities, unlike a dedicated air superiority fighter like the Sturmfalke.

Then not giving me anytime to fire at your incoming bombers.

I already said you could fire at them.

Oh, and I will add a little comment of yours about Scorpion helicopters lurking silently despite having fired missiles and rattling enemy concentrations with 32mms.

That's writing. That shouldn't even be considered.

I dont' understand how a nation can have seven percent of its population in army alone.. without the communication and logistical MESS that would form, not to mention and absolute collapse in infrastructure... that's utterly and absolutely ridiculous. Your army would fall apart because of the massive strain put on feeding and supplying these troops and pushing them into combat, and don't forget the massive morale hit when tightly packed troops get ripped apart by large bombs and FAEs and stuff.. I still cannot comprehend how a 271 million nation can even try to claim a 20 million man army.

I don't really want to get into an argument as I was just dropping my two cents in. However, I tend to talk a lot with Kraven and also follow his RPs loosely - from what I know Kraven and the Supreme State use about 7% for their military. I just calculated NK's (20 Million / 271 Million) and it equals just about 7%.

Unless they're different people behind the nations, that's called puppet-wank, and a massive no-no in the NS RP community. However, do as you wish. Sometimes that's what makes it fun.

Seriously, remember:

1) This is a game
2) This is for the story, let some wank slide for the sake of it.

Oh, and the 20 million man army is possible, but it can only be deployed for a short time. He's already stated that he only intends on crushing the opposition with them and reducing his forces.

On that note, I still don't know if I can participate in this RP or not. I've got lotsa trouble back home ICly, and I need to take care of it. Overall, though, it's a nice read.

I can't ignore the use of several megaton weapons on an ally - I could sorta forget about the Allanean tacnuke because I didn't want to descend it to nuclear war.

An improved variant of the F-23 Black Widow II advanced fighter, which is an exceptional performer in the air superiority role. The aircraft is notably faster, stealthier, longer ranged, and more agile than the F-22, but is a much more specialized unit that lacks its contemporary’s diverse payload and ground attack capabilities.

Saying that my fighters are outgunned and outmaneuvered is a joke. Both have eight missiles and both fly at Mach 2. So they are not outgunned or outmaneuverd. Do you think I have rookie pilots flying them? Nope, if you think I did. Now, with that over, I will write a post.

First of all, it was an IC statement... not an OOC one. Just some narration of the story. Secondly, Mach 2.2 (the F-23's max) and Mach 2.9 (the F-19's max) are vastly different, especially when they are in a dog fight. Furthermore, the F-19 is lighter and more manueverable...

This is a pointless argument.

1) "Active Stealth System" well that makes sense... whatever the hell that is.

2) RAM only does so much.

3) Scenery mimicking fiber optics will do nothing against Radar

The sattelite and communication systems of NK noticed the launch from the aircraft carrier. Also, if you have mounted missile compartments, it effectively destroys the design of the plane to minimize the RCS.

And tell me how only hundreds died form my bombing run? The deaths should be in thousands with all of those bombs.

The C-5s will be deployed to any runways currently available near the Kahanistan capital; they can be lost, along with the tanks - which technically aren't ours, anyway; we're 'borrowing' them from General Dynamics. The MH-61s are the ones going to the secret airstrips...

I may attach a squadron of F-22s 'borrowed' from Lockheed to the C-5s as an escort. Kahanistan already uses C-5s and F-22s (those that I sold Kahanistan a while back), so it will be easier to explain the presence of C-5s and F-22s...
I'll probably land in northwest Kahanistan, as it seems the least affected so far; tankers will be based out of anyone close to there - probably Allanea.

-ridiculous fighter-
Er, Transwolfy, PMT does not mean "Less important laws of physics will cease to apply after 2020". Nor does it mean "anything from science fiction videogames that doesn't involve starships and battle droids".

A fighter cannot fly at Mach 4.5 and be coated with RAM at the same time. It cannot be completely stealth if it expects to carry 7 LRAAMs, 8 SRAAMs and move at such speeds. (Besides that underwing pylons will be ripped off at such velocities.) No detail is provided on how the engines' heat signature is masked—are there blocks of ice mounted around the fuselage or something?—and the stats for the stealth system appear to come from a fantasy RPG. EDIT: Ok, so you use aerogel to cool the engines. What kind? How do you ensure it won't burn up during flight? and so on.

Basically, this looks painfully like a godmode to even my ignorant eyes. Such an issue should be raised with the designer of course, but still.

I'm not saying that other things don't look a bit godmoddish though either; that's just the most obvious one.

After the artillery barrage against the Kravenites, a wing of AH-64 Apache gunships took off to survey the damage and, if necessary, finish off the invaders. They came loaded for bear, with Hellfire missiles and heavy machine guns to neutralize the Kravenite infantry and at the same time, a squadron of MiG-35's were being prepared for takeoff on the other side of the country, loaded down with cluster bombs and JDAM's in addition to their usual missile layout.

The Apaches moved very close in with the Kravenites, observing the damage and spotting targets that one of their strikes wouldn't destroy, such as Imperators or columns of Emperors. The only things they would be likely to engage themselves would be things like infantry concentrations or repair crews.

Is this targeted at me?!?

If so, note that your wing of Apaches would be destroyed well before they could get over the Kravenite lines. Also, there is no chance in hell that they would be 'finishing off the invaders'... there are millions.

Hopefully, we won't even have to execute a rescue - as long as Kahanistan et al keep you from approaching the capital, our commandos get to spend a while in the desert doing nothing and you'll never know what happened. Second-best: we pull the delegates out before you hit the capital, and nobody finds out what happened. Third: we manage a successful rescue of the delegates without anyone knowing that the commandos involved were Beltway; this probably only occurs if our men avoid capture. Fourth: we fail to rescue all the delegates, but nobody knows it was us. Fifth: we successfully rescue the delegates, but some idiot reveals that we handled the rescue. Sixth: we successfully rescue the delegates, but a commando (or multiple commandos) are captured - whether or not you know it's us, prisoners would be bad. Last: we fail to rescue the delegates and it's clear that it was us; not only does it embarrass us publicly (like with Carter and Eagle Claw), but it also means that Kraven has a casus belli.
So, given the risks, why are we trying this? ICly, b/c it could bolster our reputation dramatically in the eyes of the nations that sent delegates; OOCly, b/c I wanted to try a combat rp w/o going to war, at least immediately...

Just realized this: in order to properly deploy my men, I'll need to include two more C-5s, three KC-10s (which will not land in Kahanistan), and twelve MH-75 helicopters. Total number of commandos deployed will remain the same; however, the changes were needed in order to carry the equipment (esp. for the tanks I'm bringing in to defend the airport and airfield) needed for the operation.

What sort of naval assets (all sides) are currently deployed off the Mediterranean coast of Kahanistan? I do have a few satellites, so this intel would be possible for me to know (imperfectly) ICly...

Is it possible to get to some sort of conclusion on how the first battle went? I mean, this has been going on for quite some time, but we're only hours into the fight.

Eh, maybe I'm just hoping Neo Kraven gets back online soon.

Really sorry guys, I have been busy with work.
