OOC: I'm going to bed now. Bye everyone:)

(OOC: Hold on a minute, Kravania. If, at any time, your fleet was 30 hours from shore, the fleets on the western coast would have set sail in defense. I was under the impression that your fleets still had 30 hours of travelling time, and were not just waiting there. You will still have to contend with the fleet before any landings would take place in southern Chitzeland. I'm going to have to go now, but I will make some more IC posts tomorrow.)

Amoungst the waves of refugees that had hit Providence, a group of six seemingly derelicts had slipped in. Now, after reaching an abandoned gas station in a bombed out section of the city, one of them turned to the other five.

"What's with all the gas, man?" the Chitzi asked. The Errikan leader of the others quickly answered.

"Apparently there's a leak somewhere," he offered the man a cigarrette. Quite obviously not too farmiliar with gasoline, the man took it.

"Ah, whatever," the Chitzi responded, "But I've got you into the city, my job is done, so pay up."

"Don't worry, my friend," the Errikan laughed, "You shall get what's coming to you," he waved to one of the other derelicts, a large African man, "But first we must do one more thing."

The large derelict slugged him in the face, sending him sprawling to the ground.

"Ah, man, what'd you do 'dat for?!" he spat through broken teeth.

"We couldn't risk identification by dental records."

"Man, I ain't never been to no dentist!"

"Well that simplifies things," the Errikan noted, and another derelict, a thin Asian woman, fired twice into the Chitzi's throat with silenced rounds. The man fell to the ground, trying to scream, though no sound came out. Immediately, three of the derelicts grabbed nearby gasoline cans and began dousing the area, though it was hardly needed. The Errikan, after taking the Chitzi's cigarrette with his gloved hand, poured an entire can out on his body. He then tossed the can aside, and knelt down beside the dying man.

"You know," he said, "You really should try to shake this habit." The four derelicts under his command finished dousing the place and hurried a safe distance away. The Errikan took one look at all of the sleeping refugees whom had taken cover in the remains of the gas station before walking off.

"After all," he called back, tossing the cigarrette back at the man, "Smoking kills."

The lit cigarrette hit the gasoline, quickly engulfing the entire station and surrounding area. This would all seem to be an accident. After all, the poor refugees were known for being careless. Besides, the war torn city had bigger problems than several dozen nameless refugees dying in a fire.

Their tracks covered, the team went in search of any information concerning Leonard Copeland.

Lt. Colonel John Cobb looked around for the fifth staff meeting of the day, the Allied State government was frantic about the Declaration of War and wasnt exactly quite sure how to go about it once the immediate (and dangerous) reaction of "Declare war on them" was ruled out...

"How many Chitzis do we have in the Foriegn Legion." as he turned to his newly sent Adjutant, a Major as the major turned to the New Commander (and newly arrived Captain) of the Chitzeland Foriegn Legion

"We currently have 217 Men under arms. Although with no training, but we are working on that particular problem. The Declaration of War on the factions has made the job of policing easier. Everyone is afraid, morale has plummeted around the city and a few of the city fathers have already fled. See Saigon towards the end of the Vietnam War. "

"hellva way to look at it as he turned to his political liason, a 2nd LT" Whats the news from our government

"The 2nd Regiment's orders to deploy has been canceled since the Declaration of War, and there is now talk among the State Council of possibly even diverting the Now over-strength Chitzeland Expeditionary Regiment to Defense of the Nation. Simply put, There is no one to send to us. Our Forces and the Rapdily growing Chitzeland Foriegn Legion are the only thing standing between Herholtzer, and all the rest of these factions plus Puduite Forces and Kravana's Army. SNAFU"

the Lt. Colonel shook his head as he turned to the Judicial Officer they had recently sent to help establish Courts-Martials and Tribunals in the city to help re-establish order. "Your report" he said tiredly

"What is there to report, we havent had a single case, everyone is scared, in their homes openly predicting the city will fall. The city's underworld has started a pool on when and who will have control when the dust settles. And Folks, If Allied State forces win, I wont need this army job any more. " as the Lt. Colonel turned to the engineer officer

"Please tell me you have some good news..." he said as the Engineer Smiled

"The University Complex is now extensively fortified. Think of it has a mini-maginot line without the artillery. We can hold the town against Brigands and Mobs. Against the entire Puduite or Kravania Army....Well, give me a few more days and oh say the entire old Elizabethshire Army and Civil Guard.

The Lt. Colonel nodded as he turned to his officers

"Know this, Help from Stella & Longview will more than likely not be forth coming. What we see is what we have. Encourage the men to train and to be happy. Encourage mixing between the Chitzi Recruits and our men. Reassure them that, we merely want to help them, and then return to our homes. Reassure them that neither they or their family will be slaughtered. The situation, mostly because of the large salt marshes and treacherous terrian has kept both refugees and rebels out of the city. We will defend the town with our lives and sell it dearly if need be. What has started out as a Police Peace Keeping has turned into a Shooting War. But remember our orders, it doesn't matter if its Puduite Forces or Kravanian Military, until they shoot first, They are to be considered neutrals...Dismissed

OOC: You really need to slow down the pace. People are getting lost. I'm just goin to assume my Marines have landed.

Whilst the 280 were at Yuri to bulken the defence, 20 of them were not there. Being Special Forces was not easy, and the 20 men stood up with swampy water all over them. They smelt like crap, they had only been there for half an hour.

"Why couldn't we take the road route?" Asked one of the Marines.

"Well, we would be seen, idiot!" replied the Commander. "And remember, this ain't traning no more. Get your act together!"

"Yes, sir, George," the Marine replied.

The Commander was Lieutanant Commander Dale Brown. He was quite young to be of that rank, although most Marines climbed the navy ladder pretty quickly. Most Marines however, would never make Captain.

After walking through the thick swamps, they saw the target. Across them, they saw ships. Now Colonial ships. Puddite onces, transporting the tanks and infantry.

"Ok men," the Commander said. "This is our objective. Grab me the C4 there Marine."

The Marine quickly gave the C4 to the Commander.

"Ok, so we need to plant these at each of the piers. Ensure that no one sees you doing it. If someone does, silently take him out. If you are discovered, and the alarms go off, we will have to abort this mission. You will have one minute to escape before I blow what ever charges have already been planted. When you have completed, you will swim your way back to this spot, where you will have R&R. When everyone is back, we will swin through the swamp again, get to our cars, change our gear into civilian clothing, and return to Yuri. They should have spare gear for us. Hoorah?"

"Hoorah!" The Marines replied in unison.

"Now you know who you are with, so lets load up your gear and move out."

"Yes, Sir!' Came the reply, as the teams loaded up their gear.

Agreed. Slow it down a tiddle bit, folks.

2nd Lieutenant Johannes Klimt lowered the binoculars. He frowned as he saw the well-guarded munitions dump. Corporal Carter and Pathfinder Li had already scouted it out in their guise as dock workers, but there seemed to be very little in the way of weaknesses.

Yet the place had to be destroyed- the Lingostani forces would be butchered to a man if it wasn't. Hell, they likely would be anyway, but a few ammo dumps here and there couldn't hurt if they were taken out of the equation. He knew at least six other four-man teams were operating in Locke, one in tandem with his own. Twenty-four Pathfinders against the might of the Pudite juggernaut. That was rough odds, no matter who you were.

The Orthae guarding the building would be the main problem. Klimt had heard tell and rumours of genetic manipulation. Not one to normally put stock in such claims, he had seen sufficient evidence thus far in the campaign to tak those claims with considerably more than a pinch of salt.

He had a plan, and he would wait until nightfall to enact it. Until then, he would wait.

********

Across Locke, Pathfinder teams prepared their acts of sabotage. As soon as night fell, one of the main airfields, the munitions dump, and a loading facility would be the subject of a combined attack.

Next post in an hour or so when I'll launch the actual attack. After that, I'll not post until Pudu has a chance to respond.

-Lone Alliance Military Command-
"We switched Troop movements, with Kravania preparing to land on the southern shores we won't stand a chance, we're landing at Hakken."


TO: Military Directorship
FROM: Lone Alliance Task force Bravo
We are nearing the City of Hakken, are the ports secure enough to gain access to? We'll have to be quick on the landing, our navy cannot stay at such a Vulnerable position. Our Naval forces will pull back to Meord, if you have airfields we can deploy our A-10s at them.

Klimt moved toward the munitions depot's chainlink fence. Throughout the day, Li and Carter had made surreptitious breaks in a small area of the fencing that seemed less regularly patrolled. Despite their rumoured bio-engineering, the Pudite Orthae still suffered from the boredom and monotony of guard duty in a seemingly un-threatened area, and as a result were not quite as vigilant as they should be. The three Pathfinders moved almost silently, soft-soled boots helping to prevent any noise as they made their way toward the low warehouses that housed the munitions. The silhouettes of the anti-aircraft weaponry loomed above them as they slid between stacks of crates. One Orthae soldier knew of their presence, but sadly this realisation only came as Li's knife severed his windpipe. Lowering the corpse behind a crate, Klimt checked in with Trael, the team's observer, who was waiting with his Barret in a top-floor window not far from the compound.

"All quiet, Sir. No patrols in sight. I have four Orthae manning the gun approximately 75 feet from your position, but they are all watching the skies. You should have more than enough cover."

Klimt took a deep breath, and dashed across the open ground to the warehouse walls. A flimsy building, just a civilian storage unit that "happened" to be loaded with enough ordnance to level a small city. With luck, there would be a whole shebang of collateral damage that would disrupt the Pudite port operations. Especially if Harper and Kawazaki's teams could level their targets as well.

As he set the C4, he heard Trael's voice in his earpiece. "Sir! Patrol approaching! Three Orthae, all armed."

Shit.

Flattening himself against the wall, he gripped his Sphinx, and waited for the footsteps to pass. Letting out a sigh of relief, he carried on setting the charges.

"Charges set. Trael, move out. Li, Carter, cover me."

He began to move, the detonator in one hand. The plan was to detonate as soon as he was far enough away for it to be safe. As he moved back across the crates, he spotted the patrol. The sneaky bastards....they were moving in on Li and Carter from behind.

Then, the lead Orthae suddenly painted the other two an intriguing shade of red as his head vapourised. The other two dived for cover as Trael's warning shouted through the comms.

Klimt cursed- the mission had ben compromised. The Orthae opened up, hosing Li and Carter's position. Carter took a round in the chest, as Li's Remington 870 roared into life. The shotgun blast slammed into one of the Orthae, and the other stood to return fire before looking with concern at the large .50cal wound that suddenly appeared in his chest.

Alarm klaxons went off all over the depot, and Klimt cursed. The Orthae would be all over them now.

Looking at the detonator, he knew he had no choice.

He hit the button.

*********

Two explosions rocked the city- the ammunition dump and one of the airports disappeared in a ball of incandescent flame.

However, the team at the loading bay, lead by Captain Harper, had been met and eliminated by the Orthae. Of the twenty-four Pathfinders in the city, only seven made the rendezvous the next day. One of these was Pathfinder Richard Trael.

Pudu, I'll leave it up to you to work out just how much damage has been done by the explosions. Hope I portrayed your Orthae correctly- if not, apologies.

Meanwhile, some 500 Miles away from Locke in the sea north of Chitzeland, the Lingostani Guided missile cruisers LSV Arthur Zazmir and LSV Spirit where poised to strike. The two ships fired 6 GPS-Aimed Tomahawk cruise missiles each at the Pudite fleet, and then turned back towards the long journey home.

Wait, wait...
what`s going on now? I cant keep up!

I have sent in sixty spies from ZEA (Zanx Espionage Assosiation)
with a licence to kill civillians. They will have a microchip in their neck for identification. This is the equiptment they have (Per agent):

ooc:Just keeping this page alive

OOC: Bumparoo!

Some 5 miles from Locke, a force 500 Lingonian soldiers and 20 Light Armoured vehicles had just been dropped by transport planes. The troops set to work approaching the city with orders to try and take out enemy AA Vehicles to make another aerial attack feasible.

Coming within sight of the vehicles, the soldiers used grenade launchers to attack them as the vehicles moved in firing there Anti-Tank missiles.

OOC: You could never get that close to the AA vehicles without a fight, they are in the center of the city, or at least a few blocks in. You would be stopped and engaged before you even entered. I do have a defense network…I will RP what my response to the attack would have been, and I would like you to edit your post accordingly, then respond and continue the attack.

Skies outside of Locke, near the Lingostanian attackers, 1:15 PM

Radar had recently picked up the arrival and quick departure of a few dozen transport planes, in response to this the newly appointed command had quickly dispatched a force to deal with it. They did not want any sort of successful military assault on the city staining their first few days of leadership, the High Command would not like that…

Four DAS-9 attack helicopters were already aware of the large approaching force before the radio call came in. They had picked them up on ground radar a few minutes ago, coordinated their first attack run, and were now moving towards the enemy, soon to joined by many of their comrades as command informed them.

“Sparrow pilots; we have an unidentified force located five miles north of defense sector 4, move to engage with wings 5C-12C. They are reported to have vehicle support, target them first. Our guys on the ground are coming in behind you, watch your fire, GO!”

This message reached helicopter patrol wings 5C-12C and in seconds they had altered their course and were moving to join up with the rest of the group before the attack was launched. All in all there would be twenty helicopters assembled and moving against the Lingostanian vehicles. Armed with AGM anti-tank missiles and 30mm cannons they were expecting no trouble. To cover their abandoned patrol routes, ten off-duty helicopters were scrambled.

Following the helicopters were fifty-six LV-08 light patrols that had received a similar call over their vehicle radios. Each of the patrols consisted of three vehicles, totaling at one-hundred and sixty eight trucks, fifty-six of which would be armed with 40mm grenade launchers while the rest operated 12.7mm machine guns. All LV-08 weapons were controlled via computer from inside the vehicle. This force consisted of six-hundred and seventy two Orthae, half of which would disembark from the LIV to engage, the other two would remain to drive and operate weapons.

The third piece of Locke’s defense would be the city’s air guard. Thirty-five DAS-4 Swordfish strike aircraft would engage the enemy as well, also providing extensive anti-tank capabilities.

The last piece would be Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Company, of the First Battalion, Seventh Brigade, Ninth Division, First Corps. Counting one-thousand fighting personnel among them, they would be accompanied and reinforced by sixty-four GT-6 main battle tanks. This force would move to wherever the battle had begun and provide the hammer blow necessary to end the conflict quickly. If they were not enough, a three more Companys were brought up and held in reserve at the edge of the city.

Off Shore of Locke, Naval Battle, 11:07 AM

The cruise missiles were detected incoming at thirty miles away, but, due to the fact that almost all of the ships anti-missile defense systems were occupied with enemy planes missiles, ship missiles, or planes themselves, there was almost nothing left to counter these last attacks.

All ships could have launched missiles, of course having the ability to target such multiple targets, but the target prioritization programming of the fire control computers insured that only targeted ships responded. Two of the missiles were destroyed, and two more were thrown off course by the towed decoys, chaff, and flares that littered the air and water around the fleet.

However, two did get through, one impacting the Helina class Battlecruiser Holy Word and disabling one of the crafts Mk.41 VLS launchers and killing a total of twenty-seven sailors and putting a major weakness in the top deck armoring of the ship.

The second missile impacted the Lionfish class missile frigate Pious directly at the waterline, and quickly defeating the small crafts amour, sank the ship outright. One hundred and twenty seven men were dead on impact, and the other twenty three would be left there, in the water by their Pudite compatriots for failing to defeat the missile. After the battle they would be collected and executed.

OOC: Alright, I edited both my posts.

"Defenseive pattern Alpha, now!" The admiral barked when the enemy missiles appeared on the radar. 18" turrets opened fire, firing each individual cannon separately as they turned. Shells flew towards the enemy fleet, but at much too low a trajectory. At 1/4 kilometer out, they detonated, releasing a cloud of metal shavings across the path of the missiles. As the barrage entered the cloud, they were peppered with the metal, and the vast majority of them were triggered in mid-air. of them detonated. Still almost 1100 remained, flying through empty pockets of air, or simply lucking out. The fleet fired one, two, three anti-air missile barrages, including flair missiles, which attracted as many as six or seven, before cutting speed and destroying them all. The barrages destroyed 600. As the missiles approached the fleet, the defense guns opened up, moving from missile to missile with deadly speed and accuracy, and the last of the AA missiles were fired. But they could not all be stopped.

In a way, the battleships were the luckiest. Their trimerian design combined with evasive speed tricked some of the missiles, causing them to fly between the primary and secondary hulls. The rest hit armor, some glancing.

The bridge of the Shetland shook, and some of hte lights flickered slightly. "The secondary starboard hull has sustained minor damage, primary hull has been hit on deck 4, at least 13 dead, more injured fires under control. We've lost two missile launchers on the secondary starboard, also. The Tucker is reporting similar damage."
Suddenly, a missile appeared, heading straight for the bridge. No noise was made by any of the crewmen- it was too sudded - but you could feel the sudden jost in the room, like psychic hairs standing up. The missile was struck by a line of defensive fire no more then 12 meters from the bridge and the flash was blinding. A moment later, the Admiral inquired about the status of the fleet. Two frigates had been destroyed, a destroyer was taking on water but was stabilizing, and a cruiser had lost an AA turret and flight deck. Most of the ships were nursing other minor damages across the fleet. "Well, we're lucky at any rate." Just as he said that, the water around the damaged destroyer convulsed, and a hole appeared in the hull the size of a minivan. Crew began pouring overboard, and life rafts inflated. The admiral suddenly spotted silvery shapes gliding under the water. "We have torpedoes! Evasie maneuvers! Turn 20 degrees and accelerate!" The Shetland narrowly dodged several torpedoes by a hair. Other ships behaved similarly, weaving around the metal killers with the graceful-seeming slowness that even the fastest warships moved at which belied the immense danger. One destroyer lost its engines, leaving it floating, but only until the next volley. One cruiser could not move fast enough, taking two in the side. Even as it sank, it put on speed, turning hard into a cluster of torpedoes, detonating many before they could claim another ship. The admiral removed his hat. In all, the attack (including, guns, torpedoes, missiles, and all that good stuff) destroyed or crippled four ships. Many more were damaged, and hundreds were dead. On the shore, he could see more explosions both in the city and outside it as the coalition and dominion fought back and forth. "Racist imperialist devils" he cursed under his breath. A stunned lieutenant suddenly came to his senses when he glanced down at the console. "Payback in t-minues 15 seconds, sir. Our own torpedoes just arrived*."
"Good. Lets make it hurt. Return fire!"

Weapons again roared to life with a vengance. Missiles were fired again, launching a total of 800 missiles from multiple vectors. Guns resumed fire, and the shells descended on the enemy ships with force seemingly derived from the will of the dead sailors. They did not cease fire this time.

*((OOC: Yes, I fired torpedoes last time, remember? Guess they're just now hitting, eh?))

------------------------------------------------------------
"Just who do they think they are?!?" President Reynolds stormed through the west wing of the Maison Bleu.

"Imperialist bigoted dictators with no internal opposition, huge armies and an axe to grind, sir, now, please, we need to work on our next move." The declaration of war had been met with little concern among the public and a touch of anger.

The President grumbled, then grudgingly spoke in a calmer voice. "Our analysts say there's no real danger, if they have this much trouble winning Chitzeland they will never take Minnechusettsfornia, even if they do get around to sending troops. The forces we sent were nothing, our home fleet is much, much more powerful then that, and our defenses are world-class, even with a peacetime defense budget."

"Amazing what efficiency can do, eh?"

Reynolds sighed. "We can't afford to send more forces, much as I'd like to blow that scum off the face of the earth, we need them here, what with ths "declaration" and Kraven back in the same month. Copelands governmant was a terrorist organization, Pudu is supporting the terrorists, and we don't even recognize this travesty of a puppet government. Bottom line."

"Sounds good enough for me, sir. What's our next move?"

"We can spare one special forces division. Send one in, earmarked for our usurper friends. Make sure they have PR experts with them."

"Yes sir."

-----------------------------------------------------------------
You can imagine the suprise of the ground commanders when they suddenly discovered they were on the front lines of a whole new battle. Having come to Pelsgord with the intention of sniffing out a small remaining terrorist force, and leaving for Providence and points east, they now set about fortifying it against a superior one. A command center was set up, in contact with the main HQ at Automati and Command at home. Trenches and barriers were set up around it and around the entire city, with machine gun and artillery emplacements. The usupers would not get past here.

OOC: Gah! No, you don't avoid twenty helciopters, thirty attack planes, sixteen hundred soldiers, a hundred and sixty fast attack vehicles and forty tanks like that! Sorry, but you have to engage my men, we can see you, with our planes and helicopters, not to mention the detection technology of the 'choppers, planes, tanks, and LIVs. Also, I have another two-hundred men guarding the edge of the city, IN ADDITION to the men guarding the wall there anyway. Yes, there is a wall. Sandbags piled up to a height of five feet high and three feet think. They are patroled by squads of ten guards, about four squads to a half-mile, and IFVs, about two per half-mile. The wall is also filled with constantly manned machine gun and autocannnon bunkers, about three per half mile. Every five or six city locks one would hit another of these sandbag walls, with the same statistics. Edit again please, I don't want to be mean or an ass, but that is not realistic.

Also, let this be a reference for anyone else attacking Locke, it's hard!

The crew, not having a very good day, was near jubilant when the cruise missiles hit (wherever they came from) and put the first real hurt on the enemy fleet. Their own second barrage not even hit yet, the Admiral ordered his own ship to target the now-vulnerable Holy Word at its weak point. The motivated crew quickly reloaded their batteries, and 24 missiles and another two heavy cruise missiles made a beeline for it- right on the tail of the missile barrage.

OOC: IC post coming soon

Make sure city defences are clearly labelled- this is the first mention I've heard of a sandbag wall. If I missed it in a previous post, please forive me. It's been a looong day ;)

For that reason, I'm off to bed. Will post IC tomorrow if there's any response to the Pathfinder's actions.

OOC: Gah! No, you don't avoid twenty helciopters, twelve attack planes, six-hundred soldiers, a hundred fast attack vehicles and a dozen tanks like that!

haha!

OOC: Sorry. You really never said anything about the defences, atleast not that I noticed. I guess i'll just start my attack all over. I'll get to an IC post after I delete the old posts.

The 2,000 Lingostani troops had just reached a hill above Locke and maybe a mile or 2 away. The commander of the force, Leuitenant Frederick Davidson, grabbed his binoculars, surveying the area, and spotted the massive defences around Locke.

"Holy Sh*t what are we going to do now. We need reinforcements. Contact however is in charge of Wanderjar's forces and ask if they can spare any men"

"Yes sir commander"

From: 4th Regiment of Lingostan
To: Wanderjar

To assist the coalition we need to capture Locke. We need reinforcements or we will be torn to pieces. If there are any troops you can spare we need them. We are also radioing our own forces for reinforcements, but we think not even that will be enough. We need your help to take the city.

I have a force of about 25 Spetznaz operators in the area. I'll wire a request that they support your men. They are lead by a man named Command Sergeant Michael Hammond. They'll be informed that they are now under your control, but remember, they are a light infantry force. They are armed with standard equipment of a special forces unit, Night Vision equipment, etc, as well as XM8 assault rifles, and Colt 1911 pistols with Suppressors, and 4 C-4 charges. They are trained as Counter Terrorist, Counter Insurgent, Guerilla Warfare Specialists, Demolition Specialists, and Assassins. Do not use for direct engagements, use as hit and run forces. They nearly perfect soldiers in this regard. Good luck! They will not let you down.


---Emperor Christoph Baker

Colonel Dillon, commander of the 31st Infantry, saw to the immediate dispersal of as many PPR-1s' as he could. He had recieved 20,000 of them, and were told that more were on the way along with "Special Weapons". Curious, Dillon pondered what this "Special Weapon" could be, but decided he would have to wait.

OOC: Lingostan, I am keepig my old IC posts, just with a few tiny edits. We can still detect you and are on the way. It will take Wanderjarian forces from Accen, being the closest pile of 'em, would probably take at least half a day if they were going by land, and fast. Minnechusettsfornia, sorry, didn't notice the torpedoes.

Off the Coast of Locke, Naval Battle, 11:10

The fleet responded quickly to the incoming torpedoes, all ships fired TDASW anti-torpedo torpedoes and those with the technology available deployed their anti-torpedo decoys. Although their countermeasures were impressive not all of the torpedoes were stopped, including three that struck the Carthage class Cruiser Frightening, crippling its propellers and putting a tractor sized hole just at the waterline. The ship began the slow decent below the waves, but before it fell beneath, the crew managed to launch another salvo of missiles and shells, such was their determination. The other torpedoes caused little damage, one striking a destroyer, putting a small hole in the bow, but the ships second hull held the damaged craft together.

The missiles, most of which were aimed at the damaged Battlecruiser, caused, again, little damage. The Holy Word was not so lucky however, and was hit with more ordinance than many men cared to count. Quickly disappearing beneath the waves, her place was easily taken by allied ships. A total of four-thousand five hundred missiles flew forward as the Dominion launched its second attack, followed by hundreds of larger shells and CIWS firing. The Calypso class herself added over four hundred missiles and sixty shells to the salvo.

The second enemy attack scattered some of the smaller escorts, crippling a Lionfish frigate beyond moving, shot a couple CIWS turrets off of the Roydia Battleship Inferno, and further blackened the hull of the Super Dreadnought. This time, like their enemy, the Pudites did not stop their assaults, with a continual barrage.

haha!

OOC: You wanna try it? You'll find it's harder than you think. Defences are reienforced to deal with larger threats, like a net, the harder you push the more of it is taken up holding you back. And when you let, go it springs forward again.

No, im busy with delaying you at Accen. Actually, i was laughing because i thought it was funny the way you said that it was hard :)

OOC: Believe me, i imagine you would make it damn near impossible to get in. After all those Spetznaz raids, i figured your commanders would be pissed! :p

The Lingostani troops retreated behind the hill, expecting the Pudite forces to detect them and send forces to attack. After retreating behind the hill they radioded the Lingostani command back at the airfield and reqeuested an airstrike on the city boundry defences. They also asked for an ETA on the arrival of additional troops, and got a message that they would arrive tommorow afternoon, if they where lucky.

However, it did not take long for six F4 Phantoms to arrive and fire a barrage of Air-to-Ground missiles at the city defences, before pasing over with a barrage of bombs. Unfortunatly however, one plane was shot down by an RPG, and another by an AA battery placed at the defence line. The other four managed to get away however.

Some 600 Miles off shore of Chitzeland, unaware of the success of there strike, the cruisers fired an additional six missiles at Pudite carriers and Dreadnoughts to insure that some damage would be made to the Dominion ships.

Off the coast of Locke, 11:15

"This can't go on forever." Esteland thought aloud as at least six shells glanced or were negated by the slanted armor of the flagship alone, and dozens more exploded in the churning waters around it. "And at this rate, I doubt it will end in our favor." The phalanx systems and other point-defense guns were firing relentlessly, in tandem with countermeasures, to destroy or deflect the constant stream of missiles now coming from the enemy fleet, while their own offensive weapons continued firing. "We have to do something... lieutenant! Tell engineering to bring the prototype online!"

"Yes sir!"

200 fighters flew out long to the side of the enemy fleet, flanking them. They fired their own missiles before peeling off and going back to their carriers the long way out of AA range, adding 800 projectiles from a third direction to the hundreds already being exchanged by the fleets. All of the fighters missiles were aimed at the ships' weapons, in hopes of knocking more of them out and turning the tide. If they got through, it would turn the tide of the battle. If the defenses turned their attention to them, and they did not... they would still play a part

The prototype in question was the largest naval weapon in the fleet. A railgun, which fired barrel-sized projectiles at incredible velocities for inland bombardment, meant to eliminate hardened fortifications. Now, the nearly 50-meter electromagnetic mass driver was loaded with a huge armor-penetrating shell, and aimed (with the actual hull of the ship, of course) directly at the side of the Calypso super-dreadnaught. If anything they had could get through that accursed armor, it was this.

Four missiles whizzed past the bridge in a diagonal line, bearing for a dominion Helina battlecruiser. "Here goes nothing. Fire the railgun!"

All the lights on the ship flickered, and anyone who was on an outer deck at the time would've sworn to any number of deities that the huge battleship stopped dead it its tracks for a second. If anyone looked at the large gun running through the center of the ship, though, there would have been no evidence of anything odd. The projectile was long gone, flying at speeds far exceeding any normal shell, and there were no vapors.

---------------------------

The 3rd special forces landed without fanfare in the swampy northwest of chitzeland. Wasting no time, they broke into batallions of 1000 and began moving south towards the territory held by the puppet rebel group calling themselves Kangde.

OOC: No more IC for me tonight, maybe in morning, probably not...

The 16 men deployed to set the C4 split into groups of 4. They took their diving gear and hit the water. They would have a five minute swim before they would reach the port itself.

Alpha Squad, the first team to make it to the port saw the enmormous security. There was guards posted everywhere. Never the less, they had a mission to do. They needed to stay underwater. Being night time, it was easier to hide in the water, they needed to avoid the lights. The Leader of Alpha Squad, Lieutanant Andy McMillian set the C4 and activated it. It was now ready to blow. The members then swam back, away from the pier. 'Bravo Squad would probably reach the next pier in five minutes,' he thought.

OOC: Which port are you hitting?

OOC: Locke

OOC: Is the C4 going to detonate before bravo squad hits, or should I wait to RP a reponse. Also, security is hightened becuase of the invasion going on right now and the naval battle, take casualties. If you got snorkels, we can see them.

OOC:. the teams are all going to plant C4s each, and when they are done, the timers would be set and they will explode simulataneously. There are 4 teams going out. Aplha, Bravo, Charlie and Delta. It is nighttime, and you probably struggle to see the snorkle properly [i'll ditch the snorkle actually]. But, you can choose when you happen to see it. I'm going to do each squad one at a time and you can choose when you see them, or if you even do.

IC: Outside Locke

"Bomb 1 is set, sir," Lieutanant John Chatenburg, the 2IC.

"Good," the Commander replied.

"Hurry it up!" Colonel Dillon said, hasseling the troops as they unloaded crate after crate full of PPR-1 Pulse Plasma Rifles. "There's 20,000 more of those babies, i need you to distribute everyone of them!"

"Herr Emperor!" The General said. "All of your new Rifles have been distributed amongst my men. We are now in possession of 60,000 such rifles. And the 100,000 Quik Clot medic kits are appreciated by the Combat Medics as well. I eagerly await reinforcement by the new Army aswell, god knows we need it."
"Excellant work with the Plasma Rifles. What do the troops think of them?"
"They love 'em. Think their God's gift to Wanderjar, Satan's punishment to anyone who messes with us!"
"Excellant!" He replied jovially. "I'll relay that to the Roman Military Storefront. Those 70 Tanks will arrive with the Grand Army that i'm sending."
"How many troops are in this Grand Army?"
"I'm sending in 40,000,000 Wanderjarian Troops, but in the Grand Army? Around 500,000 of them."
"Excellant. We may turn the tide of this offensive after all." With that last statement, the General snapped a salute, did an About Face, and walked out of Emperor Baker's Office.

OOC:slow down. what's going on?

OOC:slow down. what's going on?


Basically, i bought a bunch of new powerful weapons to fight Pudu, and i'm distributing them to my troops. Its a plasma weapon, shoots a big ball of plasma which disintrigrated a brick wall. I'm going to use this assault rifle to destroy Pudu's Tanks.

Okay. may I dispatch some troops to serve as backup?

OOC: Plasma=FT.

Ok, take it out? or tone down the power capabilities?

OOC: Tone it down a little, but don't take it out. I have some slightly PMT weapons I plan to use soon.

OOC: Also, Wanderjar, did youo know I have a pile of heavy cruisers, missile destroyers and a carrier bombing and shelling the f*** out of Yuri?

Also, I think everybody should do this: becuase there are so many nations involved I belive that we should all post a list of everything we have operating in Chitzeland. This list will be OOC, you would still only know abuot what you can find out about, but it would help alot. Also, you could put the location of the unit near it. This would clear up who is doing what where and allied to whom.

Off the coast of Locke, Naval Battle, 11:16
This new airborne attack by the Minnechusettsfornian fleet was the first such dedicated threat faced by the fleet, and was dealt with quite efficiently. The Carthage class air defence cruisers fired their SAM missiles, followed by those other ships possesing such weapons. The total fired included over four hundred dedicated AA missiles, supported by over fifteen-hundred heavy anti-aircraft machine guns.

As for the missiles fired by the planes, again, many were taken out by chaff, flares, decoys and anti-missile systems, but some got through. Five struck the only surviving Helina class battlecruiser, damaging two of their large 6" guns and destroying the remaining CIWS systems present on the ship. Even after this however, they were perfectly capable of dealing out damge. Firing over two hundred and sixty missiles, nine 14" armour peircing thermal guns, and with four remaining 6" guns, they gave back what they got.

As for the damage to the rest of the fleet, another escort ship, the Swiftsure class destroyer Guardian of Faith took three torpedoes and two missiles, absolutly literaly blowing the top off the ship, with flying rubble causing slight damage to the nearby Portlandia class cruiser Baptism of Fire. Other damage included the destruction of the torpedo tubes on a Lionfish class frigate and the damaging of the propellors on a single Adari class destroyer.

As for the rail gun, firing directly into the center of the mass of the Calypso class super dreadnought Inescapable. Missiles were fired at it, they missed, guns were fired, they had no effect, the missile impacted. A huge explosion and the sound of metal on metal.

When the smoke cleared what remained would have terrified the Pudite sailors, would they have been able to feel this emotion, while at he same time instilling a massive pride on their own navy.

The Inescapable was afloat, and still fighting. The captain and crew of the ship were shaken, and indeed many were dead, but the ship survived. A large hole, about six meters in diameter, was seen as the only damage. This ship appeared to the enemy, unsinkable.


One day off the coast of Locke, Task Force 02, 11:18
The Pudite force known as 'Task Force 02' was now nearing Locke, with only a days sail left, they hoped to get in on the fight as soon as they could. They would be followed, in two weeks time, but Task Force 03. There were rumors, indeed, that these forces would become regular bi-weekly arrivals.


Outside of Locke, Land Battle, 11:15
The Pudite Orthae and their supporting vehicles advanced on the cowardly Lingostani troops, with the aircraft firing their first volley of AGM missiles, with the helicopters soon following suite. After which both groups of aircraft would make two attack runs with their front muonted 30mm cannons, and then repeat.

The tanks opened fire at the crest of the hill, computer-aimed 140mm main guns slamming into the sides of the enemy vehicles. through the ranks of the assembled GT-6s wound the one-hundred and sixty light infantry vehicles, firing heavy machine guns and grenade laucnhers into the enemy troops as they approached.

Last, but not least, were the one-thousand men of Salakhon's Battalion. They were heavuly armed, each squad of ten armed with a VSS 'Threadcutter' sniper rifle, a 6P41 Pecheng medium machine guns, and RPG-29s. Of the remaining seven men, one was a sergeant, armed with an AK-74U assault rifle and a OTs-27 Berdysh sidearm. Three of the other men were the 'fire team', armed also armed with AK-74Us, OTs-27s, and GP-30 underbarrel grenade launchers and accompanied by the sniper, machine gunner, and grenadier. Two of the other three were armed with Vikhir SR-3 compact assault rifles, with the last toting the ultra-heavy KS-23 'Special Carbine' shotgun. They would make up the 'assault team'. These teams would work together, with the fire teams pinning down the enemy, and the combined assault teams of the many squads pinning the enemy, moving around to flank them. Of course, this would not be attempted if there was no suitable cover, or it was simply not a good idea.

OOC: I'm just wondering, what tech level is this?

OOC: Modern Technology

OOC: You know what Pudu? I like you, you're cool. I like that comment about shelling Yuri. :)

But i'm still gonna kick your ass :upyours:

;)

OOC: We shall see, shant we?

I have 240 Regulars and Milita (120 each) Operating in the Chitzeland City of Herholtzer

I have about 447 Native Chitzis in a Foriegn Legion also in Herholtzer.

OOC: Tone it down a little, but don't take it out. I have some slightly PMT weapons I plan to use soon.


Ok, no problem. I'll set it so it can't destroy one of your Main Battle tanks, but perhaps one of your lighter tanks, such as a BMP of sorts. An M-82 Barret can destroy a tank like that, and its a rifle, so i'll give it its power. But im not changing what it can do to a person i.e. disintegrate them :p

Dillon took cover as another shell struck home inside the city. Screams from wounded echoed throughout the city.
"Get a Quik Clot on that!" He shouted. Another round slammed into the city, caving in a building.


Colonel Joseph Goforth sat in the turret of his Leopard 2 tank, facing in the direction of the oncoming Pudite army, but without fear. He saw dust rise up from where their treads met earth, and he reached for his radio.

"Men, in minutes, they will be upon us. But do not fear, for they are only men, and are more afraid of you, than you are of them! Our objective is just and true. We are here in defense of our fellow man, and what are they here for? To conquer? Do you honestly think they will fight for a tyrannical Imperialist? NO! We are free men, here on our own accord. We are better trained, just as well equipped, and better motivated than they. When they arrive, load shells into your cannon, aim it true, and fire! For everyone of us who dies, make them pay thrice fold! Make them bleed for every inch! Grant no mercy, for you will be granted none. Kill them all!" Commanders from each tank whooped, and the sound from the tanks crews was so overpowering, he had to take his earphones off.
"Men, lets kick some ass."

"Ok," Captain Jacobs said, "We have thousands of those bastards coming, and their big. Lets stall 'em shall we? This forest pass isnt wide enough for them come through with more than five across, so until they get to the plains, they're at a disadvantage. Lets, give 'em hell." Across the entire expanse of the forest path, his team had spent all morning setting mines and bombs. And as soon as those five tanks crossed those bombs....

"Now!" he shouted over the radio, and then, dozens of C-4 charges went up under the five tanks, blowing their treads apart, and killing the drivers. One tank completley exploded. In another, as the Commander got out, Jacobs shot him through the head with his G-36. The others would have to be towed out of the way before the column could move forward.

"Ok Goforth, i bought you an hour, call in that artillery, lets see if they can handle this."

"Confirmed, will do. Get out of there or it'll get you too."

After waiting ten minutes, the fire order to the Artillery Division was made.

"What kind of ordinance do you want?"

"The new stuff, CS shells."

"Roger, over. Fire away!"

Shells arched over Dillons head, and he saw them make impact with the Earth. He could only imagine the surprise on the Pudite soldiers faces when they realized it wasn't explosive. No, much worse. CS gas. Worst part is, it wasn't lethal, even though they would probably wish it was. This gas would cause excruciating pain, blindness, and un-controllable bladder malfunctions for over two hours. After ten shells were fired, nearly three thousand yards back, all Pudite soldiers were going to be blind, paralyzed with pain, and pissing and crapping themselves uncontrollably. And the best part was, that there was no undoing the affects, the enemy was going to have to cope with it, and there were many more shells where that came from. By the time he was done with them, if they still wanted to fight, they wouldnt have any soldiers healthy enough to do it.

"Gotta love chemical warfare," he said with a laugh.


OOC: This is not a UN offense, its perfectly legal, United States Police use it on convicts all the time, and our Army uses it in Urban Combat. So does England, and the rest of the world.

Um, Wanderjar, could I please have the "designs" (if you will) for that chemical so that I could produce it? Pleeeease? :D

OOC

Wait a sec, Elfzar is landlocked! Replace Elfzar with Herholter.
And omit reply about Zazor. All else remains unchanged.

I have some HTPM-125K
25 Kw SP Multiple Plasma Mortar carriers (based on HTM-136)
Purchased at 1000% retail price (tech penalty) from a more advanced nation
And therefore lack many of the maintnance facilities required.

HTC-108ER SP gun (modifed HTC-108 for enhanced range)
and
CR-12/14/18 ER heavy rail cannons (mounted on RR tracks, or battleships)

May I use a few of these? since that is what 'special package 54' was.

CS is the code for common tear gas.
Sometimes reffered to as 'Mace' or 'Pepper spray'
Even PROHT has stockpiles of that.

The reason it has no anti-toxin is for obvious reasons (what good would it do the police if there was a common anti-toxin?)

I have 16,000 PROHT troops and 1,350 Chitzland volunteers so far.
Traing another 14,000 in the next 'month'. And has enough spare hardware for another trained Chitzland Division.

Battle off of Locke, 11:18

The gun's engineering room was full of steam and red lights. The chief engineer tapped the intercom to the bridge, over which the gunner's whoops were clearly audible. "The gun is overheated, it'll be at least 45 minutes before we can even think about preparing to fire again."

"Good work commander, keep me informed."

It had not been expected that the railgun would do any more then that. But still, the bridge crew's battered spirits rose slightly as the smoke poured from the hole on the enemy vessel, the first attack that had dealt it any real damage. For the first time in days, something was going according to plan. Between the thousands of shots already rocketing between the ships, the Minnechusettsfornian fleet managaed to divert nearly 1200 missiles and hundreds of shells straight for the unarmored, comparatively vulnerable interior of the hole. A frigate went up in flames, and a cruiser recieved severe damage during this time.

-------------------------------------------------
Central Chitzeland, 11:20

Helot (made up) was not a large town, nor was it a prosperous one. It had not done well under the Copelands, and there was no reason for it to during the bloody civil war, but it was conveniently located for the usurpers to annex and inflate the number of Chitzelandians they allegedly held sway over, increasing their legitimacy. Scouts reports showed that it held no more then 50 of the Kravanian puppet imperial guards. After strategic sniping that was down to 45, and ten units (200 soldiers) entered the deserted streets from all directions, not attracting the same amount of attention as a column of decorated troops. Not that it would matter soon. One of the units snuck up on a patrol, quickly eliminating it with silenced weapons.

((OOC: And I gotta go, will pick up this bit sometime tomorrow, hopefully.))

Um, Wanderjar, could I please have the "designs" (if you will) for that chemical so that I could produce it? Pleeeease? :D

haha! I actually bought it. But i'll work on finding the producer for ya :)

I know. I'm quite familiar with code words used by the Army/Police. Thats why i bought it :D

Mountins of West Central Chitzeland- Midnight

"Why we are even out here, in the middle of some godforsaken mountain range in the middle of some godforsaken country in the middle of their civil war, I have no idea!"

"Oh do shut up, Jim." Jim glanced at him, then sat down and lit a cigarrette. Rob looked up at him.

"You're gonna give away our position."

"To who, Rob?" Jim asked, waving around at the night, "Our team has been scouting these mountains for weeks! There's nothing within a hundred miles of here, and every single Chitzi is somewhere where there's something 'cause of the civil war! This scouting is doin' no good. When I signed up for this job, and fought my way through the intense trainin' . . ."

"Yes, I know," Rob remarked, "You already mentioned this . . ."

Just then, Rob's radio cracked to life.

"Charlie section, do you read? over." Rob quickly grabbed it and responded.

"Yes, Alpha section, over."

"We shall not be rendezvous-ing at the target loction at 0300 due to weather conditions. Seek shelter and meet at the rendezvous point at 0900, out." Rob replaced the radio at his hip.

"You heard the man. Wake Sherman and let's get goin'."

Jim kicked the sleeping man hard in the ribs.

"Ow!" he gasped before clambering to his feet, "You itiot! It was my shift to sleep until 0200, when we have to head back to the . . ."

"Change o' plans!" Jim said, tossing him his pack, "We find shelter and rendezvous at 0900."

"I remember a cave just on the other side of the valley over this ridge," Rob, who already had all of his equiptment packed and on his back, said, pulling out his night vision binoculars and climbing to the top of the ridge, "Ah, yeah, there it is . . . nice overhang to keep out any bad weather, good cover, none too deep . . ."

"I guess its settled then," Jim said, arriving beside him, "To the cave!"

The three scouts made their way down the easy slope, crossing the valley and reaching the cave in a matter of minutes (30). Upon getting far enough in not to be spotted by any potential Chitzi scouts, though none were within "a hundred miles," Rob and Sherman dropped their equiptment and prepared to sleep.

"Your turn to watch," Rob said to Jim as he readied to lay down.

"Good," Jim said, "I'd like a chance to explore this cave a bit more."

"Alright," Rob yawned, "Just don't leave the entrence unguarded for too long."

"Yeah, yeah," Jim muttered as he went deeper into the cave with his flashlight. After a minute, he was surprised that the cave was still as large as it was. After all, from what he had heard, most caves just got smaller and smaller until they . . .

He turned a corner, and gasped at what was before him.

"Jesus Christ . . ."

EDIT: Nevermind

In theatre I have 1,000 Karullian Militiamen (All volunteers, trained pretty well (Check the website for info on Karullia's lack of a standing army) and 1,000 Pathfinders, who are basically special ops folks specialising in behind-the-lines work.

I also have a tank platoon (8x Challenger 2 MBT's) and an Air Defence Platoon (8x Starstreak ADV) as well as a diplomatic corps. 500 pathfinders are spread throughout the country, while 500 plus everything else are stationed presently at the airfield and surrounding area in Yrttal. All weaponry and so forth is on the Karullia website ^^ but because I'm a nice fellah:

Karullian Militiamen standard weaponry is as follows:

Standard Uniform:

DPM Shirt, Jacket, Trousers (Forest and Urban)

Assault Boots

Mk 3 Kevlar ballistic helmets

Bergen

H&K G36C +90 rounds ammunition (Sphinx for officers)

1 Man Per 10-man Squad: EITHER: 51mm Light Mortar, Barrett XM109 .50cal Sniper Rifle/AV Weapon, Javelin Anti-Tank Launcher, or AS50 Sniper Rifle.]

Pathfinder teams have varying weapon loadouts depending on mission, but are ALWAYS armed with a Sphinx sidearm.

Trael watched the Pudite force from the hillside. His Barret lay by his side, and he peered out from the cover of a small grove of trees at the Pudite forces. They were still a fair distance away, barely within range of his beloved rifle, but he knew that firing would be pointless anyway. The other six Pathfinders had taken up similar positions, but the only weapon they had capable of doing any real damage were a pair of 51mm light mortars. Still, it couldn't hurt to try.

"Okay...wind 3 East, elevation 54... Round one, fire!"

A small pop from the trees behind him confirmed the launch of one of the anti-personnel mortar bombs. Calling out adjustments, he directed the next three mortar shots closer to the centre of the infantry column, before 2nd. Lt. Kawasaki ordered the retreat back down the opposite side of the hill, on to their next ambush point....



Pudu, I'll leave you to work out the damage done by the mortars- four shots of anti-personnel munition. First two may have missed or barely done any damage, but the fourth would have been pretty much bang on. Also, any chance you can post a reaction to the sabotage efforts inside Locke? Cheers ^^!

I have sent in another 100,000 paratroops to Yrttal.
Army marches are begginning to be demonstrated in the city center.

OOC: Does anyone control Bearmish and Pelsgord? If so, providence is only a step away.

Five minutes later, the next squad arrived (OOC: for the sake of continualtiy, this happened before Pudus post). It had a slightly more further distancee to swim. The squad moved to the second pier at Locke. The hearts of the men were racing, because at any moment the enemy could find them. They had to focus.

'Focus Damnit!' One of the squad members thought.

Nevertheless the squad arrived safely. The leader took the C4 out of his pocket and planted on the pier.

They began the swim back to the commanders.

___________________________________
At the meeting point

"Bomb 2 has been set," said one of them.

"Good," came the reply from the Commander, as he looked at the port, using his binoculars.

OOC: I currently have a Carrier Battle fleet in the Chitzi sea, I also have a team of 500 Marines in the country as well.

What happened with pudu? why is everyone bombing him?

Basically, Pudu has struck against the coalition and it is believed he wants to annex Chitzeland. Imperialist!!!!:sniper: ;)

pudu is an enemy of the coalation, he has invaded Locke.

Fine,fine.
I will send ships to locke for a blockade if you give me the signal.

OOC: Ok, everything down here is now IC, use the OOC thread for OOC stuff

I have sent three supersonic bombers to locke.
Their aim is to drop bombs in the city center, then retreat back to Yrttal.

OPERATION CONDOR

The three ZG-67 sonicmaster glided through the air. Its wings, at 20 metres end to end, were titanium coated. There was one bomb in the back, ready to drop.
In the cockpit was Captain Hasz and Private Lasi. Lasi was a small man, with a deep voice. Hasz was Big and bald. they called him boxer because his nose was so flat.
They had been ordered to drop their bomb on Locke, a city controlled by the enemy of the coalition then swiftly retreat.

Lasi turned his head, looking down onto the ground.
"Look, theres the river. follow that'"He said.
Hasz steered the plane so it was above the river.
"Beautiful country to have that evil fascist ruin it." Said Hasz, "Just look at that crystal water."
Lasi was shocked to hear such a big strong man say such a thing.
The plane spun three hundred and sixty degrees.
"Where now?"Asked Hasz.
"Left. Right is Accen." Answered Lasi.

After five minutes, surely enough, the city stretched out in front of him.
Lasi turned on the transmitter to his comrades, who were right behind him.
"This is unit two, from operation condor. Locke sighted, right ahead."
"Ready?" Shouted Hasz.
Lasi put his finger lightly on the red button.
The city was below them now.
Hasz looked at Lasi, who was trembling."GO!" He shouted.
The bomb dropped with a whistle.

Trael turned to look behind him as the Pathfinders force-marched to the next ambush point. The plumes of smoke from the city suggested another bomb had gone off....then two more followed in swift succession as the two Sonicmasters were hit by Pudite anti-air defences.

He shook his head "Hope that was precision....because there's gonna be a lot of rubble from that."

Turning, he resumed marching to the next ambush point.

the Zanx Offensive Army in Yrttal is Preparing to send in ground and air force troops to Locke.
After this, Zanx tanks will come in.
OOC: Pudu, you dont know this.

OOC: Sorrry to but in, but thats a godmod. You need to let him determine whether the bombs hit and let him respond to the boming run.
soz, im quite new to the RPing scene.
I haven't stopped him from responding!

OOC: Basically you need to get rid of this

The bomb hit its target.

Lasi picked up the transmitter.
"Unit one of Operation Condor has met its target. two more to come. over."

The last two were blown up by missiles, but overall,

OPERATION CONDOR WAS A SUCCESS

Because you used his forces (blown up by missiles) and you cant delcare tagets hit. Pudu will do that.

OOC: Basically you need to get rid of this



Because you used his forces (blown up by missiles) and you cant delcare tagets hit. Pudu will do that.

ok, understood.

"Colonel, the gas shells will keep them busy for a while," Lieutenant Colonel Brad Govern told Dillon. "But we really need better city fortifications! Lets road block the roads, and fill it with explosives. When they try to run them over, they'll explode, destroying the tank. Also, it'll delay them, because then they'll be sitting ducks entering a city, and constantly having to stop to drag the tanks out. The roads aren't wide enough for them to do this, so every time we destroy a tank, they'll have to back out of the city, and pull it out. That is, until they get to the inter section, but thats three hundred yards of pur hell for them!"
"I like it." Dillon said, "Make it happen! Make sure there are a thousand RPGs covering every inch of these roads. Make it impossible to enter the city, except for the reinforcement route behind us. They can't enter that though, because we'll bomb them into oblivion if they try it, and they arent going to risk losing their entire assault force here. Those PPR-1s will do good concentrated, but that'll take a bunch of 'em. One can't do it, more like twenty, and you have a dead tank. But that means emptying a mag into a concentrated area, and burning through, as the tank is coming at us. We'll work it out."
Govern nodded, and moved out to relay Dillons orders. Dillon stood on the balcony of a six floor Government Town Hall. Out front, hanging from the roof at an angle parrallel to the ground, were three flags. One, the Flag of the United Nations in the Center. Two, the Wanderjarian Flag with it's red on top, black underneath and a Hammer and Sickle in the center. In the center of the Sickle, was a golden star, to represent the Emperor's leadership. And on the left of the UN flag, was the flag of Chitzeland, which was to show what the men were fighting to protect, and to the people, that they were not conquerors. Hanging from poles below, by the marble stairs which led into the building, were the flags of the Coalition nations, three on one side, three on the other.

"We're gonna win this," he said, just as another volley of shells crashed into a building, knocking it down. "I just know it."

nice one.

My standing army has reached Locke and is equipped with bazookas and snipers. my sonicmasters are preparing for Operation Condor part two.

Um, Pudu, you missed my attacks on the defence wall and on your navy.

The Lingostani troops retreated behind the hill, expecting the Pudite forces to detect them and send forces to attack. After retreating behind the hill they radioded the Lingostani command back at the airfield and reqeuested an airstrike on the city boundry defences. They also asked for an ETA on the arrival of additional troops, and got a message that they would arrive tommorow afternoon, if they where lucky.

However, it did not take long for six F4 Phantoms to arrive and fire a barrage of Air-to-Ground missiles at the city defences, before pasing over with a barrage of bombs. Unfortunatly however, one plane was shot down by an RPG, and another by an AA battery placed at the defence line. The other four managed to get away however.

Some 600 Miles off shore of Chitzeland, unaware of the success of there strike, the cruisers fired an additional six missiles at Pudite carriers and Dreadnoughts to insure that some damage would be made to the Dominion ships.

IC: As the Pudite forces gathered, the Lingostani troops began running down the hill. Some 1,000 where killed by the heavy barrage of missiles, but the rest escaped the strike. However, an additional 500 lingostani troops where killed by the strafing runs, and about another 200 by the Pudite soldiers in pursuit. However, the remaining 300 Soldiers escaped back to there headqaurters, and they radioed to the reinforcements to return to base on there way back.

bump

ooc: I Missied Things Becuase It Went To Fast! Stop For A Second...

OOC: Alright, everybody! STOP TELLING ME WHAT MY FORCES DO! You cannot say "When the Pudite's gathered on the hill we charged them" or "When the Pudites stopped behind the hill we bombed them" or "The five tanks coming at us through the pass got blown up". I am not going to RP in here if you godmod. Also, If you attack me, tell me what you are attacking me with! Don't say "My army reached Locke" without telling me what the army has. Last thing, wait for me to respond to one thing before you do another thing to me. And, tell me where the post is happening, if you are defending Accen tell me, I don;t waht to guess, if you are attacking my men outside of Locke, tell me, I don't want to guess, etc. I can only get on the computer from about 4:30 to 9:00 or so, becuase of school, track, and homework. I want to do this, let me. IC post soon.

Also, Minnecustsfornia or whatever, we need to speed this naval battle up becuase my timeline will explode if I have to RP miniute by miniute naval battles and hour to day long infantry battles.

OOC: "The five tanks coming at us through the pass got blown up".


OOC: I'm sorry, i'm still getting used to RPing and didn't know that wasn't allowed. Some one tell me what i am, and am not allowed to do.

OOC: Pudite Orthae - http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/1142/orthae7ur.jpg


City of Locke, defending against fifty or so air attacks, afternoon
The bombs, missiles and other such attacks by enemy commanders were largely simple crimes against Chitzeland, as the thousands of Pudite soldiers within were distributed, save for on the edges of the defenses, scattered pretty thin. Most bombs and missiles would knock over some apartment or shoe store. Casualties were minimal, chaos was little. However, the same would not be said for the other side. The air defense over Locke was getting better by the day; thousands of anti-aircraft missiles were stationed throughout the entire fortress, covering every inch of space with a control zone extending for many miles outside of the city defenses, to destroy aircraft before they could even release their weapons.

As for the repeated sabotage attempts made on the docks, they were largely successful; completing their objective of blowing the end off the pier, but this was easily fixed by the deployment of numerous artificial dock systems. These were originally intended for a naval assault near Yuri, but would serve just as well here. The flow of supplies would be confused for a few days, but would recover quickly. Defense around the docks was improved too; naval helicopters were patrolling the seas around them, using their sonar buoys to detect underwater threats. Supporting these were hundreds of small, light railgun armed patrol boats crewed by six Orthae and defended by a 20mm railgun and two 12.7mm machine guns. These boats were also aided by sonar systems. On land things were improved too, more men were stationed here from reserve barracks in the city and lights were added to argument the Pudites already powerful darkvision.


Off the coast of Locke, Naval Battle, 11:20 AM
The battle would continue like this for some time, with some losses being recorded on both sides, but eventually Pudite admirals counted of the factor of apparently superior anti-missile defense and simple attrition. There were more Pudite ships than their enemy counterparts, and the Pudites were also aided by the support of shore-based bombers and fighters, as well as shore-based anti-aircraft missiles.

Over the course of the next hour two Adari class destroyers were crippled beyond use without repair, one Portlandia class Cruiser was sunk, followed closely by a single Monitor class Heavy Cruiser. As for the Super Dreadnought Inescapable, the repeated missile attacks were enough to cause significant personnel damage and the crippling of a single engine reactor complex. The think armor and competent defenses of the ship were enough to resist most attacks, however.

Hundreds of thousands of missiles were given back, followed by thousands of heavy cannons and railguns mounted on the various remaining ships, of which there were many.


Attacking Accen, tank force, during the assault
The explosives and mines deployed in front of the advancing armor were quite without difficulty defeated by the mine catchers in the front of the tanks, the anti-mine systems, including heat detecting and ground radar to find the mines, and HE 30mm rounds used to detonate them prematurely. Because this was controlled by a computer it could be implemented at speeds of up to 30 mph, at which they would then travel. Total casualties of the mines and artillery barrages included twelve infantry fighting vehicles, seventeen light infantry vehicles, two self-propelled howitzers, and a single tank.

The actual assault into the city was expected to tank many days. Reconnaissance reported a heavy concentration of anti-armor weapons. Instead of trying the tanks admittably amazing armor against the defenders, the High Command ordered them simply destroyed. Ever since the force had come within forty kilometers of the city a near-constant bombardment of the enemy artillery, identified by earlier aircraft recce runs. Now the force, within seven kilometers, opened fire with other weapons, the missiles mounted on the side weapon systems of the tanks and infantry fighting vehicles and the like. This bomabardment would continue for a day before they advanced further, so the direct-fire capabilities of the tanks could be opened up against the city. Bombing runs out of the carrier Indomitable and airfields in Locke would continue

The Dominions objective was no longer to capture Accen, but to level it.


Outside Locke, Pudite counter-attack force, striking against the Lingostani force that retreated behind a hill
The enemy had retreated behind a pass through which only five tanks could pass abreast. This posed little problems, the tanks opened fire from here, their main guns were perfectly capable of hitting their targets from here, supported by auxiliary missile and mortar systems mounted on the side sponsons.

The mines and C4 scattered throughout the pass were detected by the tanks ground sensors and detonated pre-maturely by RPG-29 shots. After that, the LV-08 vehicles would pass through, followed by the infantry. As for enemy mortar attacks, casualties were inflicted, destroying a total of seventeen men, five of which were eliminated after their inability to successfully operate after the blast, the rest of whom were killed outright.

Artillery from Locke, a mere five kilometers away, was directed at the area revealed by the airplanes and helicopters, who were even now striking the Lingostani vehicles and troops, to contain the enemy artillery who’s gas attacks earlier had gone totally and completely unnoticed by the Pudites, save for one man who was hit on the head by a falling gas shell and injured.


Skies over Locke, Accen, and Yuri, all the time
The air above the three main cities of the eastern conflict were as crowded as ever with Pudite aircraft. Twenty-four hour bombing of Accen had gone on for more than a week, even longer for the city of Yuri, being the Wanderjarian HQ. Long-range high altitude penetration bombers were dropping over 136,687 pounds of explosive each at all hours of the day. Escorting these were the long range high altitude DAS-15 Tiger fighter aircraft.


Off the coast of Yuri, Pudite fleet, the last four to five days
For nearly a week now a Pudite fleet has been attacking the city of Yuri. These attacks had been countered in no obvious way as of yet, and so they continued. Undergoing this attack were a single Forrest class fleet carrier, a single Roydia class battleship, seven Monitor class heavy cruisers, three Portlandia class missile cruisers, and eleven Swiftsure class destroyers. This made for an attack of over seventeen hundred missiles and over seventy strike and fighter aircraft.

A force of a single Roydia class battleship, two more Portlandia class cruisers, one Helina class battlecruisers, six Champlain class frigates, and seven more Swiftsure class destroyers had been dispatched. They would arrive in a single day.


OOC: Wanderjar, thats cool, I understand. Also, my next naval force is arrving in Locke in under twenty four hours, and then a second a week after that. Minnechusettsfornia, yup, thats the plan. Lingostan, I don't know that the hell you are talking about in your last post, and so I am ignoring it and going from the one where you said you blew up some of my tanks, which also is a godmod. The situation is that we are staring at eachother through that forest pass you mentioned, you are chemically bombing me, and I am finishing clearing the minefeild, calling in artillery strikes, and aircraft-ing your vehicles. Everyone else, I hope I addressed whatever you are doing to me in this post, if not, tell me and I will.

2nd Lieutenant Kawazaki looked down on the battle in the pass from his concealed position.

Shaking his head, he turned to the rest of the Pathfinders. "There's nothing more we can do here. General Daleburn is regrouping back at Yrrtal. I say we head there. Thos Lingostani boys are dead ducks."

The other six pathfinders concurred, and they struck out for the long march to Yrttal.

Ok, ok, I NEVER said I blew up any of your forces. All the numbers I posted where the casualtys MY troops took.

OOC: Hey, your right! That was Wanderjar. Sorry Lingostan.

I belive I should give you a little something about the Orthae, just so you know what they are. The Orthae are the Dominion's finest soldiers, they were trained from the day they were born, which happened in a germination tube deep below the military facilities of the Dominion, to be killers. They are utterly loyal, having no other option, after extensive genetic engineering. They are stronger, faster, and smarter than a normal man. They have had extensive experience fighting rebels and disssenters in the Dominion, they know no fear nor pain. And you will never find a wounded one, for anyone (as you have gathered by now) that has passed operational capacity has no more use to the Emperor, and is eliminated. They are well armed and armoured, they are the best the Dominion has, and we have more money to spend on it than anyone else in the Coalition.

TOP SECRET ENCRYPTED MESSAGE

Official Imperial Message of the Empire of Kravania

From: The Empire of Kravania

To: The Empire of Pudu

The Empire of Kravania asks Pudu for a full update and status report on the situation on the battlefront between the forces of Pudu and the Coalition enemy forces in the eastern region of Chitzeland.

The reason being is that the Empire is about to launch a large scale missile strike on the Coalition line, thus causing substantial damage and weakening the Coalition's ability to hold the front against your forces.

The Empire also asks that Pudu organise it's forces on the eastern front for a penetrative strike so as your forces can then break through and destroy the Coalition in the eastern sector of Chitzeland.

With this missile strike, after it happens, your forces have a chance to break through and crush the Coalition.

The 1st Chitzland Brigade accompanied by HT-501 Armored cars, paraded through Herholter Chitzland before going on their first true combat mission.

Meanwhile, constant shipments of ammo planes and other forms of economic/Military aid poured through PROHT's dockside 25 miles south of Herholter. This included a battery (4) CR-12ER 12" rail guns, while offshore, the CC-4 HTS Dunkirk was waiting offshore to test its new experimental CR-18ER 18" guns.

The HTS Dunkirk aimed its guns at Locke, almost 300 miles away, and loaded its guns with RAP-ER-S Munitions Carrier shells.

(OOC: Sorry I haven't posted much in this thread in the past days, there have been power outages and I temporarily lost internet access. It looks like most of the action was between the coalition and the Pudite Dominion, so I haven't been needed. By the way how did you land down there in Chitzeland Kravania? You haven't gotten past my navy yet.)

(Krave, you sure about that, you just gave your enemies guns, they could easily turn on you. PROHT at least trained indiginous loyal officers to prevent defection, and is working closely with PROHT personel, you didn't.)

A secondary fire team call came for the newly arrived heavy gun batteries, assasinate Puyi from 100 miles away. Now all they needed was a location, and to make it all work, the officers of the 1st Chitzland Brigade will man the gun.

PROHT inquired of the wherabouts of [I]"Emperor Puyi". And noted it sounded like a distortion of the name "Emporer Pudu".

This observation set in motion PROHT's infamous psycological warfare department, which started turning out leaflets showing carricitures of Emporer Pudu looking in the mirror and seeing Emporer Puyi. with a caption that read:
A tale of two Emperors...

Have you seen yours today?

Good day,
Mr. Grey

(OOC: Well, it would be stupid for my fleet to just sit around in its ports and just let your fleet close in and land at southern Chitzeland. It had been prepared to launch for several days beforehand because they were worried about threats from other imperialist powers that had been sent to the Revolutionary Directorship. I did post about this several pages ago:
(OOC: Hold on a minute, Kravania. If, at any time, your fleet was 30 hours from shore, the fleets on the western coast would have set sail in defense. I was under the impression that your fleets still had 30 hours of travelling time, and were not just waiting there. You will still have to contend with the fleet before any landings would take place in southern Chitzeland. I'm going to have to go now, but I will make some more IC posts tomorrow.)
I'm afraid we have to take it back a step.)

OOC - Puyi? You could be a bit less obvious...
Puyi (in RL) was the last emperor of China, who later became the first (and last) emperor of the Japanese puppet state of Manchukuo.
Sorry for intruding...

EMILIGO, LINGOSTAN
April 20th, 2006

Today President Gregory Neshara of Lingostan announced his believe that the war in Chitzeland was to costly to the nation and that he was willing to seek a peace treaty with Emperor Pudu as soon as possible.

He also said that the surplus money set aside for the war effort would go into constructing the first Imperial class heavy cruiser, LSV Imperial, in order to better protect the nation. He also reported that the 6,000 Lingostani troops stationed in Chitzeland are on there way home, and that the military planned to enlist 2,000 new recruits to replace men who fell in battle, and that the Air Force was planning to purchase 91 more A2M "Talon" fighters to replace the outdated F6s in service with Lingostan's air force today.

The Cruisers LSV Eqaulity, LSV Cormaja, and LSV Emiligo are still docked in Emitar near Zarzor in Chitzeland, but are expected to start there journey home within 2 Weeks. Both ships are in the process of loading for the trip.

Article from the Daily Informer, one of Lingostan's top newspapers.

OOC: Nobody here is named Puyi, or Pudu for that matter. The Emperor is still safe at home in his small white office. Hurtful Thoughts, are you dumping these fliers in Locke, or to some Chitzi people? Lingostan, did you just offer me a surrender?

Yes, actually.

And there IS somone named Puyi in Chitzeland, if you didn't already relalize.

OOC - Puyi? You could be a bit less obvious...
Puyi (in RL) was the last emperor of China, who later became the first (and last) emperor of the Japanese puppet state of Manchukuo.
Sorry for intruding...

That he was.

In RL his 'era title' in the Manchu dialect of Chinese was the 'Kangde Emperor'.

Kangde translates in English into Peace and Harmony.

And given that Kravania wants to rule over Chitzeland in the same way the Japanese ruled over China, the parallel between my IC Kangde Empire and the Empire of Manchukuo in RL is fitting.

Leaflet (distributed in Herholter) broken down for better understanding:

Emperor Pudu = Country allied with Kravania.
Looks in mirror, sees
Emporer Puyi = Proclaimed ruler of former Chitzland, but lives (safely) in Kravania

Have you seen your Emperor Today?

Points out that if Pudu and Kravania win, they'll no longer rule themselves.


PROHT will also send the usual 'safe surrender' and the 'You are about to be bombed' leaflets.

"Herr Emperor, your Naval Forces are ready for launch." The newly commissioned Admiral Heinrich Gudiern said, with a sharp salute.
"Excellant. Let us help our allies now. How long will it take to get them there?"
"One day, herr Emperor."
"Make it so. They can't hold out much longer. Send in the Marines too."
"Will do, Herr Emperor."


Several hours later, Emperor Christoph Baker held a meeting in the Briefing Room.


"Men, I have made a decision on the Accen problem. We pull out immediatley." The General's gasped.
"With all due respect your imminence, surely you can’t be serious!” General Michael Mann shouted.
“I am.” Baker replied casually.
“What could your reasoning possibly be?” Brigadier General Oliver Peterson asked.
“They are leveling the city. They’ve scouted us out, and know our plan for execution. They realize that assault would be a nightmare, and casualties would soar far higher than what they are willing to give. Personally I don’t blame them. So they have decided to pound us into the ground. I will not have good men die when they cannot fight back. Our options are: A. Assault. Charge them, and engage them up close. Not realistic though, we aren’t that well equipped. B. Flee. Make a stand else where. Use scorched earth policy, like what the Russian’s used against our German ancestors in the Second World War. So I vote we fill the town with boobie traps. When the enter the city, and attempt to fortify against the counter attack I’m sure they’ll expect, they will encounter all sorts of nasty bombs and explosives. Put them in homes, offices, everywhere.” Grudgingly, the officers accepted, and relayed the orders back to their units in Accen.

"Cast off boys!" The Lord Class Battleship's Captain announced over the intercom. The massive Imperial Wrath pushed off from the docks, and began to turn out to sea. The would follow in formation of the many Nimitz Class Aircraft carriers, filled with several MEUs' (Marine Expenditionary Units), and followed by over 1,600 Ships. More of course were on the way. "Lets give Pudu hell!"

Names of Countries fixed...

Your looking at the year on the coin and not the monetary value of it, not a good sign of innocence.

Wanderjar's ethnic/geographic description is similar (I used New Guenia as a base template, and kicked out [Most of*] the british influence)

Mind asking PROHT to bombard Accen/Locke/Yuri then? We have two 18" seige guns within range (on *HTS Dunkirk). Also willing to put our land forces into action.

We are evacuating the city. Trust us, as odd as this sounds, there is a reason behind it, which Emperor Baker plans to announce soon. He wants us to pull back to Yuri, and have the Coalition forces hold there. We've boobie trapped everything in the city, and plan to destroy detonate C-4 charges placed throughout the city, which will completely destroy it, and kill a significant amount of Pudite Troops. This should buy us time for my navy to arrive, and we can regroup, and drive theirs out. Save your Guns, we'd rather them focused later on Pudite Ships. I want to cut their supply lines, so their men starve to death, and cannot recieve ammunition for their weapons, or fuel for their ships. If they try to bring it by air, we will shoot them down with Air superiority, and we can refocus to the Southern Front, against Kravania, where Pudu is bound to reinforce if he loses Locke, which is likely. If not in the initial battle, he will lose the second, or the third. Their navy cannot compete with my money.

God speed, and good day to you sir!


---General Wilhelm Manfred


(OOC: What do you mean by "Your looking at the year on the coin and not the monetary value of it, not a good sign of innocence." I'm sure i should understand this, but i've had a lack of sleep (Exams! Ugh!). Could you explain this? Thanks!)

Three Armored Corps., filled of nearly 100,000 Leopard 2 Main Battle Tanks, and 300,000 BMP3s' in each unit, faced the Pudite juggernaught.

"To those who are about to die," Colonel Gregory Beck softly quoted, anxiety and tension in his voice. "Salute you! Hail Caeser! Men, prepare to fight for the Emperor!"

(OOC: My people, even though set on an Island Nation in the Pacific Ocean, are the relatives of German people who fled persecution at the hands of American and Soviet Governments for War Crimes. Now, however, our new generation is ashamed of the Holocaust atrocity, and we are members of the UN to make up for it.)

(OOC: Yes, my people seem to have similar roots, as the vast majority of them are about as fair as you can get. Though fleeing Nazis seems unlikely, as they are almost purely strongly Christian (Hitler actually hated Christianity) and pro-Jew (Hitler actually hated Jews), not to mention their various other beliefs that conflict with Nazi ideals. Perhaps a migration from earlier . . .
Anyway, they had been a quickly growing ethnic group for many years (due to their major rate of reproduction), but their major support for the current Emperor allowed them to be on the winning side of the civil war. Almost all of the supporters for the other side were exeuted for treason. Suddenly, this put them as the vast majority of the population (89%).)

Dr. Williams looked the paper over carefully. The Emperor was finally making headway in the rest of his work, and then invested in imperial ambitions in Arterus. It seemed that all was finally going well (and the Emperor was getting some sleep) and now some news of the coalition falling back had arrived.

Williams prayed for the Errikan troops in Chitzeland.

The Atrocity rumors that have been coming out of that small village seemed to ignite the populace, suprisingly it wasnt even the Coalition or Allied States media that first carried it but the underground against both sides. The Trade Unions, the Undergrounds, Everyone in the town was not only frightened but angry. It seemed the entire town was clamoring for Arms and Ammunition. The Allied States Chitzeland Foriegn Legion actually had to turn away recruits as the total strength was capped at 1,200, all the men they could officer. In fact, Arms (AK-47s) from the Allied States homeland was in short supply for the levy of men that passed the State Council to supplement the Regular Army.

"The City's position has in fact gotten better. We Adminster the City but Another Nation also has troops here, Which we need to consult, if they are going to stay here we need to Compromise and Consult each other (OOC, I forget who the other nation in Herholtzer is). We can, adequately defend the town against a Small Brigade, in a week or two." the Colonel mused out loud as he turned to another Adjutant

"Let the our transport depart for Fort Stella, and only alot supply planes into the city, Our men will fight with valour and honor if they realize their backs are to the wall. Its not just about chitzeland or the chitzi people, now, its to save the people from a fate worse than death.

.....A few hours later, the Young Lt. Colonel turned towards the Radio Station mic and began to speak

"Allied States Soldiers, Chitzeland Foriegn Legionnaires, Coaltion Forces in Herholtzer and around the nation, Units of the Chitzeland Armed Forces, Citizens alike.

I understand some of you are trying to flee, I understand others want Arms and Ammunition. I have no resassurence to give and little arms to dispurse at the moment. Our Forces are outnumbered not only in this city but throughout the country. Great battles for the Country have taken place in Locke, Accen, and other great cities. What's telling is Multi-national forces have fought and died in your country trying to keep you free.

the Allied States, will not risk your lives if this is truely not what you want. We will allow a plebscite, If you want Coalition Forces to declare this a open town and evacuate, We will do so. If you want to us to stay, and to fight and die along side you as brothers. We would be honored to do so.

Many of you have noticed that the flag that flies over the Unversity of herholtzer, our Expeditionary Headquarters, is not that of the Allied States, Wanderjar or any other coalition member. Because up until now, it was just your fight, your cities. I have ordered all flags, Coalition and Your own be flown. Its not just your lives in danger any more, but ours. Its not just your cities now, but ours as well.

Now, go to your families, consider your lives and consider how things could be and how they should be

(I'll assume you allow my forces to enter)

The troops rapidly disembarked from the transports securing the area around the docks to defend against Rioters and possible terrorists. The combat engineers judged what buildings could be used as a base and quickly began converting the Warehouses that usually line docks into an improv base complex. Once the last of the equipment was unloaded, the Navy rapidly fled north.

(OOC: Yes, my people seem to have similar roots, as the vast majority of them are about as fair as you can get. Though fleeing Nazis seems unlikely, as they are almost purely strongly Christian (Hitler actually hated Christianity) and pro-Jew (Hitler actually hated Jews), not to mention their various other beliefs that conflict with Nazi ideals. Perhaps a migration from earlier . . .

Then that should strenghten our alliance :)

OOC: Wanderjar, the 1,600 ships you mobalized, are they all combat ships? And even if they are not could I have a breakdown. You know, fifteen cruisers, twelve destroyers, somehting like that. Also, where are your armoured units engaging me. IC post coming later today, wait a bit before you do anything else to me so I can respond, bye.

As far as the Armor goes, 12th Armor will hit you head on, while 13th swings around to your left flank and hits you from the side. Meanwhile, my 2,000 F/A-18s, 200 B2 Bombers, 500 B52s, and 3000 Eurocopter Tigers are going to be bombing the hell out of you from all sides.

This is gonna be fun :)

No Problem, it gives me an excuse to do something else, not involving fighting you anyway :)

Lieutenant David Arsenalt, pilot of an SR-71, the Wanderjarian Airforces primary spy plane, took his aircraft over the Northern Swamps of Chitzeland.
"What is it i'm looking for?" He radioed to his Commander.
"Nothing in particular. Our Spetznaz boys are in the area, thats where they made their HQ before the war started. We're just making sure nothing is up there that might surprise them. Over."
"Roger that," Arsenalt replied. He'd been flying over the area for about a half hour, and hadn't seen a damn thing. All the pictures he took came out to be merely....swamp. But then he saw something. It was a dull grey, looked a bit like a circle in the middle of the green-grey surroundings, but it was metallic upon his further inspection. He took a picture of it.
"Command, I saw something odd down there. I'm relaying this photograph to you now. I'm getting low on fuel here, time to head home. Out."


OOC: Ok, Chitzeland, do you have any plans for those missle silos? Because if you don't, thats what my spy plane just found. If you'd rather i not find out about them yet, i'll have it just be a discrepancy in the lense of the aircraft. Or i'll make it into the actual silo, so things get a bit more hectic...hehehe

Lt. Colonel John Cobb sat around the table with all of his officers in Council of War, he banged the gavel on the table "This Council of War is to determine if we should, and if so, the consquences of distrubuting Arms to Herholtzer. As the Senior Officer against the idea spoke up

"Arming the Populace, in the midst of Civil war, would only make it open season on each other, old family rivalries and political diffrences would be reopened, and the careful adminstration of the city we have would be destroyed. The Sole aim of our Mission here, to restore Civil Authority would end in complete and utter failure" as the 1st Leuitenant in command of the Regular Army troops sat down and the Chief of Staff to Lt. Colonel Cobb stood up, a Captain he began his oratation

"Missions, in Military Life and Campaigns as well as in Civilian life change with circumstances. In the Beginning we were merely re-establishing order and providing a safe city until the government's civil war came to a conclusion. Now we are holding a city, part of a grand Alliance. We have heard of the whole sale slaughter and complete disregard of human rights and life by the Kravania and Puppet government's regime. Its no longer about establishing a safe zone but rather to keep a Chitzeland for Future Generations. Its to make sure that the people have a life to live in a country. Distrubation of Arms now, would allow for familarization and some marksmanship training. Granted the people of herholtzer would not be up to the standards of the Civil Guard, Regular Army or even the Milita or New Chitzeland Foriegn Legion, but in the end, These people must have the right to defend their right to life.

The Lt. Colonel looked at the assembled officers and nodded, "The Risk that the people will turn against us is great, however, indeed, the publication of the fact we even had the arms made this mute. If we withold weapons from a terrifed populace we seem uncaring and condemning them to death, They will raid the Arsenals. Yes, i imagine excesses will be carried out.

...About a hour later, the Allied Army soldiers and the Foriegn Legionnaires began to assemble outside the Armories and Arsenals and to huge mass of men, women and teenagers, handing out AK-47s, grenades, RPGs and Boxes upon boxes of Ammunition, witholding only enough for a sufficent reserve of Arms and Ammunition for the regular forces.

OOC: I was referring to the creation of new Foriegn Legion units....

but i like where you're going with this.

OOC: One word of advice Stella, i think what you should do is get some of your NCOs, and have them roughly put together all men of fighting age and capability into rough units, and tell them to elect respected people from each group into being "Militia Officers" and have your NCOs advise them. If you want, tell me how many Units you have, and i'll make and IC giving you the additional advisors if you need them. I have a big army, (150 Million) i can spare the manpower.


Edited: reworded

"Herr Emperor, the Forty Million Reinforcements have arrived, and are being distributed about the country. The Navy is just outside Chitzeland Territorial Waters, and is awaiting to group with the Coalition Naval Forces." The Emperor's aide announced.
"This is excellant news!" He exclaimed joyfully. "Tell the General's to assemble in the Briefing Room. Lets get country back!"

OOC: How can you maintain such a large army (150 million), when that is nearly half of your population?

Pudite Coast, Five separate Port Facilities, morning

The growing danger in the situation in Chitzeland, and the continued deployment of enemy troops and the recent appearance of any navy at all among coalition members warranted a fourth deployment of Pudite force. This was decided my unanimous vote among the High Council and the Emperor himself.

As a consequence of that decision now well over fifty million Pudite Guardians and two-thousand ships were mobilized in five separate Task Forces, named again quite unimaginatively Task Force 04, 05, 06, 07, and 08. Each would contain three Calypso class super dreadnoughts, four Freedom class pocket super dreadnoughts, two Gavin Newsom class hypercarriers, six Antietam class heavy battleships, five Forrest class fleet carriers, twelve Alliance class supercruisers, fifteen Monitor class heavy cruisers, twenty Helina class battlecruisers, twenty seven Carthage class air defense cruisers, thirty five Triara class light cruisers, thirty two Portlandia class missile cruisers, forty five Swiftsure class destroyers, forty Adari class air defense destroyers, fifty Atlantia class AEGIS destroyers, thirty Champlain class frigates, thirty-four Lionfish class frigates, and sixty Spirit attack submarines.

The forces would reach Chitzeland in seven days time, the battle would be won, Chitzeland would be won…


Off the coast of Locke, Pudite Task Force 02, afternoon
The large Pudite fleet, under command of Admiral Kolotovka, had recently detected the presence of an unknown enemy fleet, which intelligence soon reported to be of the Wanderjarian navy. In the command deck of the Admirals Calypso class super dreadnought, the Leviathan, he constructed a plan.

“WHAT! Earlier Intel reported that these guys had no navy, what the hell is this!”

A slightly nervous ensign replied, looking down every now and then both to avoid Kolotovka’s angry gaze and to re-check his facts,

“Sir, it appears they got one, sir. Satellite images report over sixteen hundred ships, sir. Course of action?”

The Admiral looked out over the command deck of his ship, out beyond that to the mass of ship assembled before him. Over ninety ships at his command. He did not hesitate.

“Adjust course, intercept enemy fleet, and engage with all guns at maximum range. Deploy aircraft. This threat must not be allowed to continue.”

Seconds later the ninety-three ships of Task Force 02 had changed course, now heading directly for the Wanderjarian ships. Over three-hundred aircraft were launched from the Gavin Newsom class carrier His Will, over seven thousand missiles were readied to fire, three-thousand torpedoes were loaded and awaited deployment, to be closely followed by hundreds of thousands of heavy railgun and ship cannon projectiles. The battle was about to begin…

OOC: How can you maintain such a large army (150 million), when that is nearly half of your population?


60 million is my standing force. The rest is inactive reserve. All of age men must be ready to fight at a moments notice in the interest of my nation.


I am very aware that a standing army of 150 million is unreasonable :D

OOC: There are much more on the way, this is merely the 1st Flotilla.

His nation is known for its compulsory Military Service...

I however, affix my military at no more than 10% of Population in National Emergency/Invasion/Civil War/Martial Law other than that it falls between .5 Percent and 3 Percent of Population.....Played too many Lord of the Realm, Stronghold, Utopia sims to affix to half to 2/3 of population, society begins to break down, Money, Industry, Civilization collapses. No one to support the troops...literally

OOC: Most nations are known for compulsory military service at one time or another, I am. All a nation can support is roughly 5% to 10% of its population, and thats even an exageration, but one suitable for nationstates. Waanderjar, the extra men who have been trianed to fight, they will not be as well trained or equipped as the standing army? And your ship list confuses me, put it in some sort of order please...battleships at top, then cruisers, etc. Also...do you know the manpower required to crew so many vessels? It would be a large number, and these men come out of your military numbers. Plus logistics, whic would realisticly be a huge number of guys (ten or so, I heard) for every single man, but people here get away with 4 to one, three to one, or two to one stuff alot.

Charlie Squad, five minutes after Bravo Squad planted their bomb swam their way into the pier. There was more ships now. 'More the better,' the men thought. Slowly, they swam into Pier Three. Reaching it, the commander of the squad reached into his pocket for his C4 pack. He planted into the pier.

__________________________________________________-
At the meeting place

"Bomb three is set, sir!" One of the men said.

"Good," the commander replied.

Yeah, logistics is a nightmare for an operation of this size. I'll rearrange the order in a couple hours, i have somewhere i need to be at the moment, and i'll deal with that later. I also am aware that this comes out of my man power, and at the time of posting, i did not think of this. I'm cutting back on the numbers a bit. As far as the extra man power question, no, most of them are not as well equipped. Their armed with AK-74's, instead of XM8s, since Automatic Kalashnikovs are very easy, and inexpensive to manufacture.

The thing is, my country is modeled after Germany, so all men have at one time or another, gone through a rotation in either the Army, or Airforce. So they will have been trained. The main factor is that they are not as well equipped, since they are Reserve, but the main reason they exist is to become replacements for dead soldiers. I wouldn't activate all of them unless it was my country being invaded.

OOC:Top Secret:

President Zanski sat at his desk, reviewing the files on Chitzeland and Yrttal. He Was taking a long look at the files on Locke, when there was a loud knock on the door.
"Come in."He said.
The door opened. In came his top warfare advisor and scientist, Sza Lamman.
"Proffessor Lamman! I haven't seen you since the Dancy war! Sit down!"
Lamman was a tall but skinny man. He had ginger hair, blue eyes and glasses.
He opened his mouth to speak.
"Hang on... have you got a slide machine?"
Zanski nodded and called for his servant to bring one.
Zanski took the slide machine and plugged it in.
Lamman Started.

"Okay. here is Locke, home of the Pudite forces in Chitzeland. So far about half a million people have died in this war. I have a solution.
I call it Operation Troy. So called because we pay the Zanx citizens in Locke..."
"Wait Wait wait... Zanx citizens in Chitzeland?" Butted in Zanski.
"Well, there are about fifty. eight live in Locke. So... we pay them and their family a couple of Zansks and they go and blow up the tallest public building in Locke with a few grams of uranium... But be careful, only about a quater of a gram amongst a kilo of gunpowder. Then get someone to blow up the main power plant. now the whole city is..."
"Dead."Said Zanski.
"Well, yes. hopleless."
"Bring it on Lamman, your a genius!"

OOC: Every civilian in Locke either fled the assult, died in the fighting, or was rounded up and put into 'refugee' camps. We do not allow foreign citizens, i.e Chitzelandian ones, free reign in our base of operations as we occupy their country.

In the past month, Chitzeland had seen a drastic change. At first, it had been quiet. Murmurs about President Copeland’s true intentions. Protests. It grew louder. Massacre of protesters. Dissent of the people. It erupted at the peak of a violent crescendo. Overthrowing the government. Massive riots slaughtering tens of millions. The intervention of foreign powers. The treachery of General Stein. The death of Pope Rolland.

The people of Chitzeland had grown tired of this civil war. The massive pain of all the death had finally begun to creep into their minds, showing them of the horrors which they had committed. Even in the east, riots were almost nonexistent now. All of the Revolutionaries had fled from towns that were predominantly Loyalist, and all the Loyalists had fled from cities that were predominantly Revolutionary. The main concern for the people now was getting food on the table while not getting killed by foreign armies.

If there were any riots nowadays, it was in the occupied cities. Foreign rule of Chitzeland, even if temporary, was something no citizen could accept. Something must be done. War must continue to be waged, but now by a united Chitzeland.

At the forefront of this war was Admiral Amherst and his Revolutionary Directorship. The mood in the war room had obviously changed for the better. The general opinion was that the end to this nightmare would come, although few knew whether it would be in weeks, months, or years. For those who had been in such a depression for so long, the sight of possible victory was like a stimulating drug.

The reason for this new outlook by the Directorship was a document that had been compiled by a variety of sources. It became to be known only as “The Report.” It was received by General Laguardia one morning.

“General Laguardia, that report you asked for from nationwide intelligence and command services has been completed. I have it here.”

“All right then. Let us begin to hear the bad news. What is of the army? How many troops do we have now, and how spread out are we?”

“Sir, due to our aggressive drafting, calling upon the reserves, and volunteers who want to see Chitzeland repaired again, our standing army has swelled to nearly 68 million. The number goes up by the day. They are all rallied in military bases, mostly in the west. In addition, we have taken over many local businesses, and are offering to let them help us in general support roles. This will let us mobilize our new troops faster by getting supplies and services to everyone that needs them.”

Generals who had been standing around preparing other possible strategies had come over in astonishment at how efficient their drafting plan had been. Clearly, they had not counted on this much public support.

“That is…excellent…what of the riots?”

“They are calming down. They are almost nonexistent in most communities due to victory by either the Revolutionary or Loyalist groups. Also due to these factors, General Stein’s support has decreased significantly. Most citizens are now in support of our Revolutionary Directorship, as it is generally perceived that we are the only ones who can push the foreigners out.”

“And how about our factories?”

“Converting and constructing factories is, for the most part, going according to plan. We are having some trouble in southern Chitzeland due to lack of supplies, but the majority of our factories in the west are on schedule. Our factories producing bombs, ammunition, guns, etc. are up and running, and those that are being converted to produce armored units and planes are not yet operational but should be shortly. A large segment of the population in the west is working at these factories, since it is the most stable occupation they can find. Although our currency is useless, we are paying them by providing housing, food, and other useful items.”

“What about the conflict between the Pudites and the Coalition?”

“I am afraid that it has not changed very much. Unfortunately, it seems that both sides have called for additional reinforcements to be shipped in. We will be dealing with a huge amount of troops, estimated at about 100 million if you put both sides together.”

“Well, who do you say is the bigger threat? The Pudite Dominion or this ‘Coalition’ that seems to think it has my support.”

“Definitely the Pudites.”

“Well, I suppose we should go ahead and play along with the Coalition for now. I do not want to have to battle both at once. Inform the Coalition that our troops should be shortly joining the front. If we get rid of the Pudites, then we will deal with the Coalition. For now, however, let us fight only one power.”

“And how do you propose we deal with the Coalition in that scenario?”

“We will ask them to leave. If they do not, we will deal with that situation when it comes closer. Now, on to some more specific planning. Field Marshal Smith, I hear that you have been working closely with some lower Army officers?”

“Yes, in fact, we will begin our first assault on General Stein’s forces within hours. I anticipate that it will be an easy victory. We will try to apprehend both General Stein and Leonard Copeland, who I assume is somewhere under General Stein’s control. I will also issue the order right now to prepare our forces in the west to start moving east. We will set up positions in southeastern Terra, from which we will evaluate the situation that the coalition is facing and determine where to intervene. A small force will penetrate south of that area and take control of airfields for use of our Air Force. Command planes will be in the air at all times.”

“Good, good. Soon, this should all be over with.”

Admiral Amherst spoke up, “I’m sorry to upset you guys, but there is one major obstacle that we have ignored thus far. It is the Pudite ships in and around Locke. They are a significant force, and I am afraid that we will have a tough time combating it with our own navy. Powerful as it is, it will be a tough fight.”

“Send out a message to all coalition members. Urge them to send all naval ships they can spare to secure naval bases here in Chitzeland. We will then strategize on how to force the Pudite Navy into retreat.”

The plan was put into action immediately. The following transmission was sent:

---Transmission from the Revolutionary Directorship---
To: All Coalition members
Subject: the war

We are finally able to send support to the front in Eastern Chitzeland. We are sorry that we have not been able to support you until now, but we finally have a force on the way, and what a force it is!

This will hopefully allow us to push the Pudites off land, but as long as their navy exists, we can never win. This is why I am asking that all Coalition members send any naval vessels they can to any of our naval bases in western Chitzeland that can accommodate them. It is essential to our plan of victory.

If we are to succeed, then Chitzeland will forever be in debt to the brave Coalition members that have come to us in our darkest hour.

Sincerely, the Revolutionary Directorship

The rest of the 402nd Divisoin Charlie Brigade, 4th Battalion (402C4) Heavy Artillery (Rail) arived bringing the amount of land based rail guns to Four 18" (up to 300 mile range) Eight 14" (up to 200 mile range) and Eight 12" (up to 160 mile range) guns, and their crew of 550 men on 6 trains, each train was given a pair of 5" Mortars and HT-101 AFVs and 20 gaurds for self defense.

Their orders where to fire upon the Pudite fleets, which they began in earnest. As soon as someone told them where the Pudite ships where (have no artillery spotters yet, and you don't want me shooting 300 miles blind).

They decided that if no positions where given, they would shell Locke, the first shell the sent was packed with leaflets, which showed very vividly, a psuedo accurate representation of what was going to happebn to Locke, and at the bottom was a time. Tomarrow morning 0500 hours.

OTC-1 had expnded into 5 sub camps for various specialties (SERE, Sniper, Pilot, Artillery and, Combat Engineer) and the 1st Chitzland Special forces Division (Formerly reffered to as 1st Chitzland Division) was outfitted with more modern equipment, HT-101 AFVs instead of HT-501 Armored Cars, a small Air Force Training base was being set up, with UL-2000 and FMX-6B aircraft (The best frontline planes PROHT could spare).

The 1st Chitzland SF Division, aided by the 203rd PROHT Horse Division, and a part of the 2nd Marine Division, headed East, fording the many rivers, and building bridges... and railways. Their objectve was Locke.

1st Chitzland Div and Marine Battalion on campaign in the east.

OOC: Could someone give me a summary of what has happened? I gather it was all part of a revolution and a president who is spouting propaganda, but what else is going on and who is on what side?

Chitzland - in the thick of it. Had a crazy leader, then a coup, then factioned to a civil war, then all these foriegners started showing up.

Pudu and Kravania are trying to annex Chitzland for themselves

Everybody else is on 'The coalition' and thinks they are helping Chitzland defend itself.

PROHT: technicly part of the coalition/Peacekeepers/Nuetral, except that the Chizi government agreed to our arrival. Is really trying to use the war to its own advantage. But in the meantime is infusing the crippled nation with their almost sole source of income.

Is taking a pro-coalition stance, but is refusing to inflict mass casualties upon Pudu unless directly ordered to.

PS: Wanderjar has an itchy trigger finger.

OOC: Excellent, just looked through the thread and decided to post a bit.

Persepolis Palace

The Shah sat on his terrace, reclining upon cushions as the hookah gave off the sweet smoke. His gilded teacup rested upon a small table, steaming as he drank small sips and chewed upon fresh dates. Into this terrace of paradise, filled with servants, a messenger arrived, bearing a single folder he held towards the Shah as he kneeled. Picking it up gently and dismissing the messenger, the Shah of Parthia read the folder's contents, informing him of the situation in Chitzland. Within minutes, he walked back inside, into the marble halls of the palace, moving towards the situation room. There, several commanders in the military sat around the table as the Shah entered and spoke, "The situation has become somewhat convoluted, apparently, Kravania is supporting a new state, under the leader Puyi, while the Pudu forces combat coalition forces in the east. Now, I think it is necessary to support the Kravanians, and to force the Coalition out of Chitzland so that Puyi might rule in a manner suitable for Parthian foreign policy, establishing Capitalist juntas wherever possible."

The generals nodded before the Shah spoke again. "We currently have a large task force assembled off the coast of The Royal Code, and I think it would be useful to deploy them to Chitzland, in addition to another task force of somewhat smaller size from Parthia. Overall, we can put 50 divisions of Infantry, 10 armored divisions, 3 artillery divisions, and 5 divisions of Immortals into the southern coast of Chitzland and march onto Providence, steamrolling any Coalition opposition." Lord Marshall Rostam Bahari spoke next, "Yes Lord, but also, remember, we are unaware of the Pudu alignment in such a potential deployment."

The Shah lit a cigarette as he spoke, before adding in his own words, "Indeed, but intelligence and from what I can tell of the situation, the Puduites seem to be ignoring the Kravanians, and are not activley engaging them. Therefore, I think there might be some kind of concordiat between them." The Shah released a cloud of smoke from his drag. "The time has come, ready the fleet, I want all the forces to arrive in Chitzland within a few days and for a landing upon Ort, before marching onto Providence."

The Parthians were about to send a massive force to war.

Swamps and Mountains of North Chitzeland
The land party barely laid 10 miles of track before they heard massive shells flying overhead (18" RAP-ER-S Leaflet shells aimed at Locke and Yuri [PROHT fired 5 at each city)]).

The HT-501s where getting bogged down, the 20 T-90 tanks sat in the near front, and made good speed, while a few HT-101s and PROHT cavalry where on point, bounding through the swamps looking for the easiest path for the rest of the group.

As the main column was manhandling the HT-501s through the swamplands, their CO looked at a map, and radioed that a small engineer contingent (from the OTC-1 and local labourers) be sent down the two closer rivers to build the bridges, drop off supplies, and perhaps help build the rails.

The 1st Chitzeland Division was intertwined within the advancing group, for they where still green troops.

OOC: Did I miss something, becuase I do not remember ever occuping Yuri, I belive that is currently the Wanderjarian headquarters. They may not appriciate the attacks. I do, however, control, after the Wanderjarian retreat, the city of Accen, which is being bombed, shelled, blown up, and tank-ed until it is a plain of rubble.

City of Accen, Pudite Attack Force, after Wanderjarian retreat
The Pudite force, roughly four thousand vehicles and twenty-thousand Orthae, ahd recived word that a large-scale Wanderjarian attack was on its way, with a force moving out far to the left flank, and a second driving right at the center of the Pudite line at the edge of the ruined city of Accen.

As soon as any Wanderjarian vehicles came within sixteen kilometers of the force they would be detected by Pudite satalites and the barrage would begin. Seven-hundred and fifty self-propelled howitzers and four missile cruisers would open up with everything they had, surface to surface missiles, heavy high-explosive rounds, air-to-ground missiles from the nearly one-thousand elite Pudite interceptors, fighters, and strike aircraft in the area. Supporting them would be about two-thousand DAS-9 Sparrow attack helicopters called in, newly arrived, from the city of Locke. The troop would move left and engage the Wanderjarian thirteenth armoured, the one that was supposed to be the flanker. The cruisers in the bay outside the city would deter the twelfth armored as long as possible, and with each ship launching well over three hundred missiles every miniute. This would continue for an hour, then the ships would break off the missile attack and return to picket duty in the harbour, unless the armoured units remained in range, then they would open fire with their eight-inch naval guns, which will have been firing in support to the earlier attacks and would continue if possible.

The Pudite Mekhev tanks were nigh-on invunerable to enemy attack, and thus would take the brunt of the fighting, each expected and fully capable of destroying a half-dozen enemy tanks before succumbling to the extreamly lucky it required to penetrate its armour. Following would be the SIV IFVs, deploying their troop of Orhtae in the best position avalable for concealed fire of anti-tank weaponry, primarily rocket-proppeled grenades and missile launchers. The helicopters would be busy fighting off enemy choppers, and such would only be able to hit the ground forces when no other targets were avalable. The same would be said about the Pudite aircraft, as they too were outnumbered by these inferior Wanderjarian craft, and would spend their time clearing the airspace. The LIV squads would harrass the flanks of the Wanderjarian battle line, firing and dissapearing before a reponse could be mounted.


OOC: IC post about attack on Locke soon.

OOC: Hey everyone, i'm sorry i havent been able to post any ICs latley. I've been very busy with school, and have no free time. This will only increase, because my school has a spring football season (american football) and i am their leading lineman, so.....freetime for the next month for me will be nil.

I hope to be able to post a little bit here and there from now on.

I do, however, control, after the Wanderjarian retreat, the city of Accen, which is being bombed, shelled, blown up, and tank-ed until it is a plain of rubble.


Wow, you're nice.....

OOC: Crush the enemy utterly and leave no one to oppose you, 1st Doctrine, Pudite Military Compendium.

And, I too will have little free time, as regular season for trak just started up, and I have a couple meets a week. Post whenever possible I shall.

OOC: Haha! I like that. If i was actually the invader, and not trying to establish peace on behalf of the UN, i'd use the same doctrine. I believe in Total War

OOC: secret except for coalition members

The Zanx government has considered the size of the Pudite threat in Accen and is discussing the following options


1) Nuke all Pudite cities
Good:Wipes out army
Bad:Kills many civillians
Current Position:Rejected

2) Send in Zanx Armed Terrorist Army
Good:Strikes Terror in Pudite forces
Bad:Kills many civillians and may spark propaganda.
Position: Discussing, Preparing to reject

3)Send in Zanx Offensive Army
Good:may destroy pudite threat
Bad:huge gamble, may become a tragedy.
Position: Discussing

4) Send in Espionage team
Good: May determine whereabouts of certain people, places (Army bases)
Bad: Huge risk of spies getting caught.
Position: Discussing, preparing to accept

-Hakkan-
"Step away from the gate people, this isn't very hard." A soldier said through a megaphone to a crowd of Protesters. "It's not like we're controlling the city, it's a bunch of abandoned Warehouses." His voice was still being drowned out by yells of "Stop the conquers!" and "Stop controlling our city." All which were complete lies because since arriving, The Lone Alliance troops had only done patrols outside the city along the roads. "Grow up people!" The soldier said throwing the Megaphone into the crowd. "I hate fools."

City of Locke, Pudite Defences, During PROHT army bombardment

The bombardment by enemy artillery was taken by the Pudite defenders very stoicly. The infantry prepared to man their defences, a total of over ten million men. These soldiers would defend the first wall along he edge of the city. The remaining forty million men would stay inside the city, guarding the further layers. Casualties were moderate, as most men had taken cover in prefabricated shelters brought over from the Dominion.

In response to the attacks by artillery, the Pudite's fired their own barrage. Comprising of over three-thousand Z-38 Panther self-propelled howtizers and fifteen hundred Z-40 heavy self-proppelled howitzers. The shots were guided by computers cooperating with satalite video feeds. The shots were highly accurate, targeting the PROHT artillery first, then moving on to any other armoured threats, before targeting any remaining infantry.

Good day,
Mr. Grey

OOC:
For some reason I doubt your SP guns are within range of my 300 ton rail artillery pieces in hardened concrete bunkers... (been building those things for a month already)
So that brings me to ask:
How much range do your Z-38 and Z-40 guns have and roughly where are they?

My CR-18ER railway artillery was firing RAP-ER-S Leaflet shells (paper). Not explosives, and only fired 5 of them at Locke, from 300 miles away. (From 25 due miles south of Herholter) So I'm also wondering what 'bombardment' your troops where cowereing from.

(don't doubt feasability, British made a High velocity 8"/13.5" gun in WW2 with a range of 200 miles, perhaps more if dicarding sabots and RAPs used.)


IC:
The next day, PROHTfired a similar barrage except consisting of RAP-ER-S Munitions carriers (Bomblets and mines). 5 minute burst from 4 18" rail guns firing at 1 rpm each. 20 shells in all, in 5 salvoes - falling straight down into the city like invisable dive bombers - a total of 1 ton of munitions in the raid.

Followed shortly after by 4 more leaflet shells, stating very bluntly:

"We warned you, the next attack will be worse."

OOC:.....When did Pudu occupy Yuri???? I don't seem to recall seeing that anywhere!!!

Somewhere I probly got messed up when Kravania tried to attack Zazor...

Yuri stricken from attack plans.

Wait a second:


Yuri:
-1 Forest Class Fleet Carrier
-2 Roydia RefitA Class Battleships
-1 Helina Class Battlecruiser
-7 Monitor Class Heavy Cruisers
-5 Portlandia Class Missile Cruisers
-18 Swiftsure Class Destroyers
-6 Champlain Class Frigates
-40 DAS-6 Scimitar fighters
-30 DAS-4 Swordfish strike aircraft

BTW: loked up Z-40 and Z-38, they only have a rasnge of 55 and 40 km respectivly. (biggest gun 11")

While my 18" long barreled rail artillery fires sub caliber shells up to 300 miles or approx 600 Km. You are out of range.

OOC: And yes, i do tend to have an itchy trigger finger, but i think out my attacks before i make them. When politics fail, I use the Imperial Wanderjarian Army to do my talking :)

The 125,000 Leopard 2s', and 50,000 BMP3s' began to move forward. The Pudite attack force had to be distracted. Though outnumbered, they would send as many Pudite men to hell as they could, before being sent there themselves.

One Captain said to his company of 40 tanks, "Guys, who here is ready to go to Valhalla? Not me. We're going there, but not before taking some of those sonsofbitches with us. What the hell kinda name is that? Pudu? Are you afraid of that? Not me. I'm gonna kill them just because I think...no...i know! That they're much more afraid of us, than we are of them."


OOC: I mean no offense by that statement Pudu. As im sure you know, any army in history makes fun of their opponant to desensitize the troops to them, and make them easier to kill. I have no problem with the name Pudu, actually, i think its kinda cool! But i just wanted you to know that so theirs no hard feelings :)


And i use the Armored Spear Doctrine, so my armored Divisions will follow in a spear headed fashion, a point division, and a division following behind on each flank, forming a wedge. And the three battalions of each Division do the same, just on a smaller scale. Flanking me will not be easy. Make sure to incorporate this into the battle.

The Wanderjarian Army Commanders, General Hans Guy, General Erich von Licthenstein, and Field Marshal Erwin Koenig, began the organization of their men to recapture Accen.

Hans first stated, "Accen is no longer existing, but thePudite troops are still heading in that direction. The Tanks will give them hell, but they will be defeated. I'm hoping to cuase excessive casulties however on the part of those three armor divisions. What i say we do, is move up to immediatley attack after the Armor battle. Use the Battleships cruise missles to pound the general area, which will destroy many tanks, and then we'll move in and mop up. It'll be costly in terms of men, but its our only chance to sweep them from this place. We have to take control of Locke, and defend it, before that new fleet gets here! If they arrive before we do, then we've lost, and we'll have to negotiate something."
"As much as i hate to admit it," Von Licthenstein sighed, "that is true. What we'll do is what you stated. But when the assault of Locke comes, we must have our allies concentrate forces on locke's outer defenses, and try to have our Marine Corps. storm the harbour. The battle ships can keep their fleet occupied until they have landed, and General Gunther can send his Marines into the city. There's what? 20,000 of those crazy buggers? I think they can do it. They'll just need a concentrated attack on all sides. And Massive Air bombardments."
Sighing, Field Marshal Koenig replied, "So be it. But first, we must beat the Pudite Armored Corps. Lets deal with them first."




The three armor divisions were insight of Pudite Armored forces now.

"GUNNER," Every Tank commander in the point division ordered, "TARGET, TANK 4000. USE HEAT. OUT."

The Zanx government has considered the size of the Pudite threat in Accen and is discussing the following options


1) Nuke all Pudite cities
Good:Wipes out army
Bad:Kills many civillians
Current Position:Rejected

2) Send in Zanx Armed Terrorist Army
Good:Strikes Terror in Pudite forces
Bad:Kills many civillians and may spark propaganda.
Position: Discussing, Preparing to reject

3)Send in Zanx Offensive Army
Good:may destroy pudite threat
Bad:huge gamble, may become a tragedy.
Position: Discussing

4) Send in Espionage team
Good: May determine whereabouts of certain people, places (Army bases)
Bad: Huge risk of spies getting caught.

Carry out any neccessary raids on enemy facilities. Use extreme prejudice.

"Captain Richtofen," 1st Mate Alec Swoffard said, "The Enemy fleet is in sight. Admiral Guiderion has ordered an attack."
"Quite. Aim all guns to begin direct fire upon the fleet. Target first enemy Destroyers and Battleships, then go for Carriers. Crusiers are less important, we'll mop them up afterwords. Make it so."


The 300 ships which were in range of the Pudite fleet opened fire. The Carriers launched fighters to engage the carrier fleet, and SSN submersibles launched torpedoes. Frigates moved in closer, supported by cruisers, to engage the fleet. And Battleships began firing salvos of shells at the ships, and launched cruise missles at specific Capital Ships.


(OOC: I didnt specify any damage, other than the fact that i engaged. I did the battle right correct? No godmodding? Like I said before, i'm still getting used to RPing, and I havent RP'd a battle yet.)

OOC: Ok slow it down right now. Yes, right now you are godmodding. You cant claim to have 40 million soldiers and 5 million tanks. Your population would not be able to support it. You can only really claim 357000 troops (as a democracy) and only 10% of those could actually fight in the front lines as soldiers. Secondly, you need to post the logistic (how exactly you were able to carry those amount of tanks). You can do your research, but you would not have enought boats to load of those amounts of people.

The Zansk Espionage Team (ZET) has sent in two Pudite* spies posing as Pudite soldiers to the battlefront in locke. They are equipt with weak nuclear bombs with power enough to turn half a mile of land into dust. We have located the army rally point and have asked for the bomb to be set within two hours the go-ahead from Wanderjar.


*Proof that people will do anything for money

OOC: Did you just say that you bribed two of my men. That cannot happen, I don't mean their utterly un-corruptibly loyal (which, if I may say, they are), they just would not understand. First, if you approach them and your not one of them, they shoot you. They have been bred to do this since they were removed from their synthesization chambers. Second, if you choose to ignore that fact, they don't know what money is! My nation does not 'have a currency', we simply use the money as a way to track our governments wealth compared to everyone else. There are no businesses, at all. Not even government owned ones. Everything the population needs is supplied for them when we tell them they need it because they have never been told otherwise. If you choose to ignore that fact then thirdly, they would have no use for it, as I just explained. After the war they will be sent back to the Dominion, where they will enter their sleep chambers for an extended rest period, before returning to their normal sleep-training routine. They have no private belongings, they have no life, family, history, free thought, etc. You will not bribe them, it is impossible. Neat huh? I am attempting to locate a piece I wrote about a day in the life of one of my farmer-class citizens, coming soon, probably followed by an IC post of some sort...

(Pudite's heavy artillery cannot reach 300 miles to Herholtzer, I checked)

OTC-1/Fire Base-1
The next day
The CR-14ER and CR-12ER went down to FB-2 to help secure the estuaries, which would become imparatively useful in the march through the swamp.

The CR-18ERs prepared to fire another (though bigger) shelling, consisting of two guns firing full burst of 60 RPH for 5 minutes while the others fired at 30 RPH for 30 minutes. followed by a 2 minute grand finaly burst by all CR-18ERs at 60 RPH. Topped off with 2 leaflet shells, infoming the pudite troops on how to surrender ans the terms and conditions in which they would be garanteed treatment. Another clump simply urged them to leave in order to fight another day.
(Luxury resort, women, no more need to work, not get killed)
15 shells in first 15 min, folowed by 30 shells in next 30 min, then 8 shells in 2 min.

52 shells, 2.6 tons of shells in 38 minutes. 5 min air time per shell on average.

18" RAP-ER-S (so far the only type of shell class in range right now)

16 Munitions Carrier shells (Mines and bomblets)
16 Concrete Demolition HESH
10 AP 'screemer' shells. (in first 5 min burst)
4 'Surerender now' leaflet shells
4 'Live to fight another day' leaflet shells

Would you like us to divert our shelling of Locke to Accen to aid your tank units? We would be much obliged if a forward observer relayed our shot resaults against point/moving targets.

(OOC)
I noted a number of falty thinking in Pudite's government and social system, yes, they can still be bribed.

Just not with money, they still value their survival, and the ability to fight 'in more important battles' rather than sit in some rat hole and get shelled like clockwork.

OOC: You will not bribe my men, they, even beyond the mental modifications, are grown to be loyal. The past twenty-two years were spent indoctrinaing them in Imperial Faith. Offering them surrender, vacation, mercy, or anything of that nature they would not understand. These words and concepts are not taught to them. Also, are you offering my men women? Again, no effect. People do not reproduce sexually in the Dominion, everyone is grown underneath their home compound and thus, no desire is felt toward the opposite gender. In fact, there is not an opposite gender among my populace. No sexual organs are present on anyone grown by my nation. Read the day in the life post I liked to.

OOC:

OOC: How is it you propose to walk up to the men and propose this?
Leaflets, radio, telegrams, etc...

Unless your troops are illiterate now, which wuld make issueing orders a drag...

Oh, well, I'll use pictures then on my leaflets...

How does one have "moderate casualties" when bombed by leaflets anyways?
Papercuts? Riots? What?

Still don't know why your troops run away from paper leaflets though....

Still, living to actually fight a battle would be appealing over getting shelled daily for no other reason than bad polotics...

Read the "pudite farmer"
Noted the following:

Rely on ‘programming’ and mass rather than initiative or free thought to win battles.
.
No survival instincts: won’t forage for food, won’t be able to cope when their infrastructure is severed, will not seek medical aid when injured.

Won’t have the sense to get out of a minefield.
.
Potentially fatal ‘Programming’: for example, when they took cover from leaflets and fired at a gun too far away. They will react incorrectly to something they don’t/can’t recognize (super long range shelling, no apparent enemy to attack, they will become confused)

All I have to do is do something the ‘programmers’ overlooked.
.
They are overzealous, and will be apt to blindly attack. (Offer them to an open battle/ambush rather than sit and die for no reason)
.
“Faulty programming”: As stated in ‘day in the life of a Pudite farmer’, some of your men have faulty ‘chips’ and exhibit free will.

This isn’t really a problem for either of us, but I’ll state it anyway. Since you made a pretty ig deal about it in your farmer story.
.
How would they react to “friendly fire”?

Your men took up defensive positions looking for some enemy to shoot, but all there was were themselves.
.
In order to come up with non-predictable strategies, you would need a strategist with the ability to think. As with the question of why you have artisans when your country doesn’t value art.


PROHThas been sending shells to Locke foe 3 days now.

Leaflets 4 shells (this is the raid you RPed taking cover from)
Raid (to prove we weren't kidding around, mostly mines) 20 shells
Bombardment (to inflict exponenially more damage) 52 shells

OOC: What, run away? What do you speak of? Also, its a safe bet to assume that after an OOC post I am not finished talking and the thing I posted is only to hold a place until after I finish the thought, so waiting little bit before responding, good.

Port City of Locke, During Artillery Assault, around noon
The enemy shelling had been taking heavy casualties for the past few days of attacks, totaling now well over a thousand dead, and none wounded, as per Pudite codes. Many buildings in the city had been damaged, including some heavily stocked armories and barracks. The command in the city had had enough, and was dispatching a strike force to deal with the problem in Herholtzer.

Totaling one-million and two hundred thousand strong, the Pudite force was dispatched as soon as the necessary force could be mustered. Now just leaving the boundaries of the city, they were accompanied by one-hundred thousand Mekhev main battle tanks, five-hundred thousand GT-6 main battle tanks, six hundred thousand SIV-25 infantry fighting vehicles, eight hundred thousand LV-08 light infantry vehicles, twenty thousand Z-38 Panther self-propelled howitzers, ten thousand Tunguska M1 anti-aircraft artillery and missile platform, and three thousand DAS-9 Sparrow attack helicopters.

The army would arrive in Herholtzer in four days, if they made good time. Their commander, an experienced man by the name of Lapachka, planned on bringing the force along about twelve miles north of the highway that cut across from Locke to the west, where upon he would turn north and attack his target city.

Escorting the army along would be about four-hundred DAS-2 Specter fighters and one hundred and fifty DAS-15 Tiger interceptors. Aiding the assault further would be the flights of DAS-5 Vulcan heavy bombers from Locke that would begin striking at the city, hopefully managing to do some damage to the heavily protected guns therein that sparked the attack in the first place.


Ruined City of Accen, Before Armored Assault, around noon
The commanders at Locke had noted the attack on the troops at Accen, and were worried. Although the Pudite tanks were hundreds of years beyond the technology of their enemies the numbers were not favorable. The problem had to be solved.

A force was authorized to move south immediately to aid the beleaguered commander in charge of Accen operations. This second force would consist of three-hundred thousand five hundred GT-6 main battle tanks, ten thousand five hundred Z-38 Panther Self-Propelled Howitzers, fifty thousand Tunguska M1 systems, and fifty thousand LV-08 light infantry vehicles.

In five hours this, as it was called, Relief Force 01 would arrive in the city of Accen, to relieve the Pudite armies there, before helping in the final destruction of the city, and finally escorting them back to the bases in Locke.

A new assault had begun…

Off the Coast of Ort

Task Force Shahanshahi moved through the waters, stopping with the city of Ort in the distance, within range of the guns of the Parthian fleet. ACI-73s flew overhead, covering the skies above in the hundeds as the superdreadnoughts turned themselves parallel to the shore, pointing their 24 inch guns at the city, firing in a single, coalesced burst as the ten ships unloaded nearly 100 shells in quick succession, aimed for the city center. Cruisers and destroyers joined in, painting the city with ordinance barrages, while thousands of unguided rockets armed with incindiary charges flew from converted container ships towards the buildings on shore, bursting into a massive burst of napalm flame.

F/A-91s moved in from the skies, dropping napalm on residential areas, concentrating the bombs together to create firestorms, self contained vortexes of flame driven across the city by wind, burning at a temperature hot enough to set asphalt on fire. Within minutes, several megatons of explosives and incindiaries had been unloaded, and showed no signs of letting up as naval vessels continued to pour fire into coastal buildings, hoping to flatten them into rubble with concentrated fire.

With the barrage continuing, 2 divisions of Parthian infantry were loaded onto hovercrafts, their orders were to seize port facilities to expedite unloading of heavy armor and to seize a significant portion of the city through whatever means necessary.

Meanwhile, overhead, F/A-91s stood by, patrolling for enemy activity on the ground while ACI-73s provided air support.

OTC-1; 25 miles south of Herholtzer
The CR-18ERs dug in for a long haul,firing all day at 15 RPH each. RAP-ER-L munition (mine) shells, which wieghed about twice as much as the smaller and faster RAP-ER-S shell, with about 80% of the range. They would focus on the airport and dockside in order to make further reinforcement impossable for the Pudites.

1440 shells, 144 tons of munitions. One shell every minute, on the minute.

They also deployed a few of the Horse Division troops and some raw Chitzis south of the road to Locke to help train additional green troops and act as spotters for the artillery shells landing in Locke and Accen.

Fire Base 2; 50 Miles East of Officer Training Camp-1
The CR-14ER and CR-12ER batteries where in position. No sooner had they done this that they heard through the grapevine that Ort was under atack.

The CR-12ERs would strike 1 Mile south of Ort, while the CR-14ERs would add additional fire to Accen and Locke.

The CR-12ER would fire a few RAP-ER-S AP screemer shells just to get the invaders attention that something in their plans went very wrong. They would then start firing larger and slower RAP-ER-L Munitions shells loaded with mines.

One CR-14ER battery would fire upon Accen with RAP-ER-S shells while the second battery would fire RAP-ER-L shells at Locke.

Locke: 2880 shells, 288 tons, one shell every 30 seconds
Accen: 2880 shells 144 tons, one shell every 30 seconds

The 8 CR-12ER railroad guns took aim and fired a salvo of AP shells, followed by the mines, they would keep this up for 10 minutes at a rate of 2 RPM.

Followed by a creeping barrage at 1 RPM for the duration of the day.

2960 CR-12ER shells, 295 tons of ordnance aimed in the area around Ort. And the Pudites at Locke thought they had it bad...

Total shell /tonnage allocation for today.
Locke: 3320 shells, 576 tons (airport and Dockside shelled ad mined)
Accen: 2880 shells, 144 tons (airport, Dockside, main roads shelled and mined)
Ort: 2960 shells, 295 tons (One mile North/South of coast mined)

OTC-1 Air Wing
Due to the invasion of Ort, a quick spotter would be needed, and that would be in the form of Six FMX-6B stealth CAS planes armed with a pair of F/SC-Ts internaly, a pair of CC-35B cannons, a pair of EMP-S, and a radio. Though not directly tasked to attack the fleet, they where well equiped to handle themselves.

Operation Condor Part 3: Operation Porcupine

Jarak Arma, head of the Zanx Armed Terrorist Army (ZATA) had been ordered to stay in Xanka prison until the Chitze Invasion had finished or calmed.
He had been sitting in his lonely cell for six months now.
He had no idea that President Merech Zanski was just about to pay a visit.

The guard looked in and spoke in a deep voice.
"Jarak Arma, you're wanted by Mister Zanski."
Jarak stood up and the door opened. The guard was quivering, for he was opening the door for the most feared person in Zanski.
There was Merech Zanski, a slim old man, in his sixties, president and founder of the Modern Republic Of Zanski.
"About time too."Growled Arma, shaking Zanski's hand.
"Jarak Arma. Long time no see, old freind."

They went into the War Crimes room, the highest security debating room in the prison.
"So," Started Zanski, "How are things?"
"Well, a bit boring. I've been in jail for a few months." Replied Arma, with a cheeky smile growing in the corner of his lips.
Zanski laughed, then continued.
"Okay. Well, this thing in Locke..."
"With Pudu?"
"Yes. Well it's getting a bit out of hand. We need you and the ZATA to blow up a few buses, cars, assassinate a couple of people, take a few hostages.
We would deploy the Espionage Team, but you are far more clever than we are. Plus you have more numbers. Twenty million was the last figure, wasn't it?"
"Yes."
"Use extreme force."
"Civillians?"
"Kill whoever you like, as long as they aren't from the Coalition and are in Locke. Agreed?"
"Agreed."

That night, one million members of the ZATA were shipped into Yrttal with thirty light uranium bombs.
They would drive a jumbo jet into the city centre.

OOC: Zanski, did the jumbo jet take off yet, or are you waiting to do that later?


Pudite Occupied Chitzeland, Accen and Locke, During PROHT bombardment
The dock facilities of Locke were extensive, but so was the bombardment offered to them. The waterfront was horribly mangled, with the constant bombardment mutilating the piers and breakwaters all along the coast. More prefabricated docks were being installed and brought in, and troops continued to pour in through the docks not already destroyed, and would continue to come in untill they were.

As for Accen, there were no Pudite soldiers anywhere near either the dockside or the airfeild, and the bombs served only to continue the Pudite objective of later destroying the city.

The man in charge of the Pudite occupation, commander Psribizlaus's only thought was, "It's too bad they still don't think we're in Yuri..."




--SECRET IC--
To: The Parthians
From: Mr. White, foreign affairs officer
Subject: Chitzeland
Message: Your recent invasion of the city of Ort in the troubled nation of Chitzeland has brought upon you the anger of a group of nations invloved in this theater known as 'The Coalition'. The Dominion is currently working against these nations interests in Chitzeland, as it appears you are. Might I suggest, as long as we have a common enemy, a non-aggression pact between our forces in the country. It will make it easier for both of us.

Good day,
Mr. White

Ort

The Parthians moved on the city center, the infantry and armored fighting vehicles unloading from hovercrafts and moving through the charred rubble of what once were the coastal neighborhoods of Ort. From the skies above, the rain of massive shells started, screaming through the air, unloading mines on the coastlines. The Parthians, caught in the center between the mine gauntlet, acted quickly, deciding that to implement full attack, the beaches would have to be de-mined and the offending mining artillery would need to be destroyed. The 33rd and 45th Infantry divisions were now moving through Ort, trying to secure port facilities for the final phase of unloading, yet, those landing on the beaches outside the city were being cut apart by mines and were falling back. In response, hundreds of anti-mining fuel-air explosives were utilized, clearing paths for the Parthians to advance upon the city.

Satellite overpasses of the region had demonstrated massive firebases pouring shells onto the city, a clear indicator it was time for a strike. 350 ACI-73s were in the air over the fleet, along with 35 F/A-91s. 150 of the ACI-73s were to escort 25 F/A-91s to the artillery firebase and allow the F/A-91s to utilize their weapons upon the firebase, destroying the artillery hitting Parthian positions. The ACI-73s proceeded the F/A-91s in positions, ordered to clear out enemy planes before the fighter bombers moved into positions. With luck, the stealthy ACIs would get the jump on any enemy aircraft in the region and destroy them without the enemies knowing they were even there.

Back in Ort, ACI-73 stealth fighters now moved in on the enemy aircraft, unable to detect the assumably stealth planes with radar, the 58 planes in the air moved on them and fired away with 20mm ETC cannons, swarming them with sheer numbers and massive amounts of shells. Anti-air batteries opened fire, spraying the enemy aircraft with shells.

OOC: Ok, I just wanted to know If I had to post a response yet.

Skies near Ort
The 6 FMX-6 planes could make out masive numbers of specks.
Enemy planes
Against the combined fire of the 58 agresor planes they would be ripped to shreds.

The planes started releaseing their unguided F/SC-T Rocket/Torpedoes in the general direction of the invading fleet. Lightened of their load, they would be better prepared to defend themselves.

At first the FMX-6Bs relied on their supperoir gun range afforded by their 35 mm cannons. Then the Attacking swarm opened up with a deadly volley of 20 mm ETC shells.
One of the planes managed to send out a partial and garbled distress call refferig to massive air forces and AAA.
3 PROHT planes where riddled 2 where going down in flames...

Then they did it. They released their E-Bombs. With the intent that frying all nearby electronics would do more harm to the enemy than it would to themselves.
THe FMX-6Bs lost all electrical, which mostly comprised of a radio, IR sensors, and that was luckily about it.
The FMX-6 design was intended from the outset to overfly E-Bomb strikes, with minimal observability from ground and RADAR. The FMX-6 was also given very liberal amounts of armor.
The Cable-Pully controls still worked, along with the mehanicly operated CC-35B cannons and mechanicly throttled turboprops worked as well.

The single FMX-6B gave what it could a reargaurd action, while the 3 super crippled planes limped for the nearest friendly airport.

Fire base 3; 50 miles east of FB-2
The gun mountings had been completed, along with the bridges, but the rails had not yet been finished.

They picked up word from the recon unit sent south, they had encounted massed attacks from supiror fighter planes.

"What Anti-air defences do we have"

"Well sir, we only brought suplies to quell uprisings, our artillery and marines came with their anti air patriot missiles, and our AFVs are armed with 35 mm cannons, then we have our DP CC-5 artillery, to augmnt that we also have a few E-shells for both the 5" guns and the rail artillery."

"How did they get the patriot missiles in?"

"They came with the HT-101s assigned to defend the guns. And the CC-5 cannons hve been issued to the Mechanized PROHT units and the Chtzi 1st SF division."

"More about those Patriot missiles, how are they mounted?"

"You're new at this aren't you? Oh well, this division of the PROHT Marines was only formed a short while ago...
The HT-101 can mount up to 12 patriot missiles on either their turret roofs or straped nto the top hatch of the hull, or both. The HT-501 due to their similaritiwes could also accwept the same mount."

Actually, we are supporting presisdent Copeland(if he's still alive). So then we will make their govt. be just like our own, a democratic socialist Utopia:D.

The last set of marine came through. It was near dusk now, and they had to finish quickly. They inserted the bomb, but in the rush to get back one of them accidently blew a bubble. The bubble of doom. It made its way quickly, bursting as it hit the top

'Shit,' they thought, as they waited for the eventual alarm to sound.

The suicide plane set off at midday.
The man inside, who shall remain anonymous, knew that even if he didn't reach his target he would die.

I have deleted ALL posts about Kravanian troops landing on Chitzelandi soil. IC wise, the Kravanian invasion has YET to take place. I agree, it would be much better to have the Kravanian invasion fleet engage in battle with Chitzeland's navy, before my forces land on your nation.

Do make a post about your navy moving into position for them to do battle with the Kravanian invasion fleet.

City of Locke, Pudite Anti-Aircraft Missile Battery, just after detection of jumbo-jet
Seconds ago Pudite air-search radar had detected a large commercial plane with a heading destined to take it over Locke, this troubled Pudite commanders. The citiezens of Locke had long since either fled the city, been killed in fighting, or been rounded up and held in 'refugee' camps. There was no operating commercial airport in the city, and reports had been recived revealing that it had in fact taken off from an enemy held city.

The plane was going to be destroyed. It would be easy to take it down, a plane that big could not manuver to avoid incoming missiles, the only question was, wuold it be enough. It was almost certian that there would be explosives on board if it was in fact a suicide plane, but nobody knew what kind.

It did not matter anymore anyway, there were seven DAS-2 Specter fighters, which had been re-routed from an attack mission on Accen, heading for the jet. they would intercept the plane about one-hundred miles outside Locke. There was absolutly no way the plane could escape them...

City of Locke, Waterfront, just after the placing of the Northern Colonies bomb
The second the bubble surfaced the spotlights were on that location, in seconds the Orthae stationed there were at the dockside, firing into the water. There would be little effect with their standard weapons, who's shots would break up inches after impact, but it was the psycological effect that counted. Seconds later patrol boats were at the scene, and they could do damage. The large 30mm autocannon mounted in the fore opened up into the water, soon followed by three more craft that arrived just after. They would follow their sonar readings of the attackers after them until they were dead.

Seconds later the explosion on the docks detonated, dozens of men, gathered to fire into the water, were killed, and a single patrol boat on the way to aid its comrades was overturned and sunk. The pier, one of the few remaining originals, was sliced in half. A repair effort would begin in the morning, this would slow the deployment of forces slightly.

Ort

The Parthian planes over Ort did not pursue, seeing the crippled recon flight return to base, but instead moved out on the next radar contact, a swarm of slow moving aircraft moving from Lone Alliance positions, ones who had sustained EMP damage to sensors returned to base, with others launched from the carrier to take their place. Each of them waited for them to come within missile range, then each dropped the undercarriage designed to ensure the stealth fighters maintained minimal radar exposure as they fired, each unleashing a pair of HAMRAAM missiles at the slow moving A-10s. With 116 missiles flying towards the enemy planes, the Parthians pulled back, before SAM batteries joined in, firing away with nearly 250 SAMs at the incoming A-10s.

On the ground, the elecromagnetic pulse weapons took a small toll, the M-35 IFVs and APCs used by the Parthian army were heavily sheilded from damage to core systems and systems not in use, but radar sensors and other unsheildable electronic components were out of commission. This would be problematic, since many of the most frontline units were out of commission, but would not be too troublesome to fix or too costly for the massive invasion force, now pushing through the city, slaughtering troublesome civilians and setting buildings ablaze as they marched through, looting and pillaging to ensure the city would never be able to rise in revolt. The docks were now secure, allowing Parthian ships to begin the process of unloading.

Now, more troublesome news came to the commanders, sonar signals detected both torpedoes in the water and 200 missiles moving in from enemy positions. Acting quickly, the fleet arranged massive countermeasures against the weapons, firing anti-torpedo munitions which destroyed nearly all of them, while evasive maneuvers sent the rest of the unguided munitions heading off to the seas. The missiles though, were another matter. An initial spread of Fuel-Air explosive equipped missiles fired first, knocking most out of the skies before conventional SAM barrages leapt from the tubes of the warships, hitting the vast majority. Two destroyers were sunk by four of the missiles, and the Parthians now fired back. Jamshid class cruisers unloaded a barrage of 550 trireme SSMs, each moving at subsonic speeds at water level to avoid detection by infrared and radar sensors, though once they approached within 60 miles, they would accelerate to mach 2, before finally hitting enemy vessels with a terminal pop up maneuver designed to foil CIWS. These now raced across the water, poised to smash the Lone Alliance fleet before it could fire again.

Near Fire Base 2

The ACI-73s soared through the skies, waiting for the counterattack by the Coalition, while at the same time, E-6s moved into position, jamming radar signals and communications channels. They fired 33 HARM missiles, tracking onto nearby RADAR stations, and implanting their locations in memory to continue until they hit the station and annihilated it, even if the station was powered down. Now, Parthians expecting a blind enemy moved onto the firebase, with F/A-91s firing from a distance with munitions designed to burst into HEAT clustermunitions, before moving inwards to drop fuel-air explosives and clusterbombs.

TOP SECRET ENCRYPTED MESSAGE

From: Imperial Central Command

To: Pudu

The Empire of Kravania is making it's final plans for the first landings of our invasion fleet on Chitzelandi soil.

Our intelligence reveals that the Chitzelandi navy will try and intercept our fleet, yet we are aware that they would in no way be able to match what we have to offer them. Add to that, the Empire's decision to send further invasion fleets from Kravania to the theatre of battle.

The Empire now has enough intelligence to launch it's attack on the Coalition line on the eastern front.

We have to warn you now, a substantial amount of the missiles that will strike the eastern front will have chemical warheads, armed with VX nerve gas.

It is imperative that Pudu gives the order to have all your staff and troops on the eastern front suit up in their NBC protective suits. This will spare Puduite forces from the toxic clouds that will surely engulf the eastern front and with it the forces of the Coalition.

Streets of Hakkan; not the airport, the city streets
One of the crippled planes managed to make it safely to Hakkan, its landing gear failed to extend fully and made a belly landing, crashing into a lamp-post. The plane was riddled with holes, and the pilot wasn't moving...

Another FMX-6B came in right behind, making a spectacular ground collision with the now stopped plane. Luckily the second plane merely ran over the top of the first and crushed large portions of the airframe, but spared the pilot in his armored 'tub'. Fuel could be seen leaking from the planes. The pilot of the second plane likewise wasn't moving.

The tird plane crash landed at the city airport of Hakkan, heavily damaged, and had to be written off as an airframe.

The pilot hopped out claiming he had important information.

Ort
The lone unfazed FMX-6B pilot saw the frazzled enemy planes turning tail, and decided to draw his quarter, he chased after the planes and realled out a deadly and concentrated volley of 35 mm cannon shells, he could see brilliant starshell bursts of E-shells, with no affect on his plane, he just kept sniping the enemy planes.

Eventually they outdistanced him and he turned his attention to the infantry, the job the FMX-6 was built for, beat them up rough and tumble ground support. Where technology was not of much concern.

He straffed tanks, hovercraft, jeeps, and other large targets of opprotunity.

"Take that you ants!! How does it feel now?!"

FB-2
The Heavy gun battery crew, slightly forewaned, had loaded their guns with 18, 14 and 12 inch E-shells, and made sure half their radars were only to be used after they where sure they fired all enemy ARMs.

They became aware of the attacks when 2 HT-101 AFVs carrying Patriot missiles went to pieces, the gun batteries then swiveled in their gun emplacements and fired a spread of E-shells to cover several square miles of frontage up to 40 miles away. The secondary RADARs then switched on and fired the remaining 24 ready patriots at the incoming planes, then switched off and resumed on Optical rangefinders and 35 mm cannon, aided by the CC-5 5" DP Cannons of the PROHT 'resserve' Marine Battalion.

The railroad guns would be ready for another salvo in 60 seconds.

There would be little effect with their standard weapons, who's shots would break up inches after impact, but it was the psycological effect that counted. Seconds later patrol boats were at the scene, and they could do damage. The large 30mm autocannon mounted in the fore opened up into the water, soon followed by three more craft that arrived just after. They would follow their sonar readings of the attackers after them until they were dead.

Seconds later the explosion on the docks detonated, dozens of men, gathered to fire into the water, were killed, and a single patrol boat on the way to aid its comrades was overturned and sunk. The pier, one of the few remaining originals, was sliced in half. A repair effort would begin in the morning, this would slow the deployment of forces slightly.

OOC: I was going to do the bombing.

The Marines sat below the patrol boat. This insured that they could not be seen by the sonar.

"Shit, what do we do?" Said one of them.

The squad commander, Lieutanant George Macarthur sat their for a few moments. Like a chess player, he pondered his move, examining the possiblilities of each move, before making his mind up.

"Men," he began slowly. "We are going to drop our weights and rise to the surface. You need to then quickly climb onto the boat and start shooting at the crewmembers."

Behind the scuba gear, the men were looking at each other with a strange look. George continued.

"Remember, we have less then one minute to execute this."

"Are you shitting me sir?" Exclaimed one of the Marine. "That is insane, we'll be de..."

"And we'll be dead anyway," quickly George retorted. "Now let's do this."

The Marines dropped the heavy lead weight. They quickly made it to the top of the water. The boat was right beside them. Quickly, the first man took one of his hands and lifted himself up, with the support of everyone else, onto the top of the boat. Taking out his M8 Rifle, he began to take a shot at the sailor. Meanwhile, the next Marine began his climb and soon there were two on board. Then the third and then George. They had to quickly take the boat; time was ticking against them.

________________________________________________________
In the Marshes, near Locke

"Shit we've been compromised!" Shouted the Commander. He looked at his deputy. They nodded, knowing what they had to do. Set the bomb for one minute.

The deputy quickly went about his task. Punching a few numbers, he soon had all four bomb running at T minus one explosion times. They quickly disassembled the command post, before quickly making their way back, towards the civilian cars on the road.

-Merod-
The Naval forces off the coast of Merod were told of the missiles even though they couldn't detect them, quickly the faster ships scattered from the main fleet closer to the line of incoming missiles. On board another cruiser a group of 10 Predador drones took off to get in positions between the fleet and the missiles, the smaller ships got behind larger ones to cause a line of sight effect. On board one of the high target ships, an Aircraft Carrier, sailors began to abandon ship while the ship launched all aircraft towards the Hakkan airfield. Getting in between the missiles the Drones detonated their payload in the midist of the Missile field, setting off Neutron bombs, destroying many missiles and damaging many others with the high amounts of radiation frying their internals. Still this and the multiple Anti Missiles and Gattlings were unable to stop 30 missiles from slamming into the main carrier and 6 Cruisers. Quickly recovering the Carrier to a pile of scrap, sinking it and a cruiser and severly damaging the others.

-Hakkan Airfield-
As sirens began to sound relaying a possible Parthian counterattack the officer on duty escorted the pilot to the comm office.

Firebase 2

The EMP burst over the ground, sending a pulse affecting nearly 25 Parthian airplanes flying lower than 35,000 feet, mostly the F/A-91s, reducing their number to less than 15 capable of making a strike, while at the same time, stripping them of all systems but avionics and landing gear systems, which were shielded from EMPs, forcing them to turn for home. Patriot missiles too, joined in, fired from the ground in a great swarm, approaching the radar-visible F/A-91s, who responded quickly, activating radar pulse emitters which sent waves towards missile tracking systems in such a manner to create destructive interference of the wave pattern, creating the illusion to the missile targetting systems that they had reached their target and to detonate. Others, which had not been hit with the precise wave pattern in such a way to create such an occurrence were targetted with microwave emitters under the planes which fried electronics through the concentrated, directed microwave beam. 5 of the 15 though, were hit, and now fell to the ground, burning in flames.

As the remaining planes flew towards the target, they dropped the rest of their out, with 3 more being hit by enemy ground fire, clusterbombs and napalm were set across the firebase, but more importantly, aerial photographs taken by the fleeing planes provided the real punch to the Parthian attack, as the locations of hardened bunkers and undamaged gun emplacements were located by computers in the Parthian command center, then programmed into the targetting systems of 35 SLBM sized missiles. Each of the 35 flew upwards to 85,000 feet, before dropping the second stage, revealing AGM-240 Qiunqereme missiles. Each of the missiles accelerated to 100,000 feet with the assistance of SCRAMjet motors, far above the operating ceiling of most SAMs. Once they reached the area above their targets, they activated directional thrusters, sending them downwards, reaching a terminal speed of mach 20, which, when combined with a DU penetrator and several hundred pounds of ONC could destroy even hardened bunkers.

Ort

The Parthian infantry took cover in buildings as one rouge plane overhead strafed randomly, hitting one APC and killing or wounding the unlucky squad caught inside it. Response was swift, shoulder launched infrared guided missiles flew off towards the planes, joined by 35mm AA guns, all aimed directly at the plane from several different sources. A trio of Parthian aircraft came back around, firing away ten HAMRAAM missiles with IR guidance, certain that now, the last plane would be destroyed.


Near Hakkan Airfield

E-6s led the formation, unleashing a barrage of HARM missiles at enemy radar sites in the region, a total of 25 missiles directed to radar beams stored in memory once the signal was accquired. With the expectation the Lone Alliance was now blind, 100 F/A-91s unleashed 150 special missiles, each would fly towards the primary runways of Hakkan airfield, then detonate over them, releasing three submunitons which would land on the runways, before detonating and blasting the runway out of commission, preventing planes in the air from landing, or those on the ground from taking off.

Now, ACI-73 fighters moved in, their stealthy signatures rendering them nearly impossible to detect on radar, hoping to ambush the enemy planes in the air and on the ground, before the F/A-91s moved in to finish off the airfield.

OOC:
Why are we using NBC weapons? You do know this allows me a free hand to use my own if this continues, and that would not be 'pretty'.

Keep in mind, PROHT is a 3rd party, neither Coalition or part of the Pudite invasion, but given express permission by the Revolutionary Directorship. And therefore, PROHT need only be loyal to the Chitzis.

(Imagine wht a UN PKO would do in a situiation like this. :eek:

IC:
FB-2
The HEAT shells caused minor damage (HEAT doesn't work well against concrete) the cluster bombs pocked the ground, but the real damage was from the FAEs, one of which managed to cave in a bunker huoseing a CR-12ER, killing its 40 man PROHT gun crew.

Otherwise, the PROHT and Chitzi forces where jubilant, and a impromptu documentry was made of the event, only to be rocked by another notable event, 35 SLBMs hit the firebase, destroying all the rail artillery stationed there. Luckily, the majority of the land forces where continuing to build bridges and rails for FB-3, or outside filming the destruction, wreckage, and looking for downed pilots.

Ort
The FMX-6 pilot was causing great havoc, until some of them got enough courage to start shooting back, and not just the little stuff, a fragment of a 35 mm shell slipped through a worn section of the armored tub, hitting the pilot in the leg, and the plane was getting more and more sluggish, the proppeller and engine was vibrating badly, and he continually saw puffs and trails of smoke from shoulder launched SAMs.

He wasn't super worried about those, a shoulder launched SAM generally wasn't too sophisticated, and in the ruins of the city, he could find many obstacles to put in the way of the SAMs, fouling their already doubious aim, or even sending them into other buildings. Anyhow, he wouldn't need flares, the firestorm they created themselves created all the IR clutter he needed.

What he did notice was a swarm of planes gathering above him, almost 'waiting' for him to come up for air, as tey fired AMRAAMs at him at their leisure, a stinger was one thing, an AMRAAM from above was another, no buildings to jump over and behind or corners to take to save himself.

He did spot a barely standing cavernous warehouse, roof fairly intact, chances where, no matter what he did, he wouldn't be flying out alive, but he might try walking out.

He cut his engine, and dead sticked into the open warehouse door, cowls open to cool the engine as fast as he could, the airframe was now junk, the tub was punctured, the avionics and radio and ignition coil shot, and primary and secondary control surfaces shot out, landing gear stuck.

Halfway through the warehouse, he banked sarply left and right, and skimmed his wing against a wall, hoping to set of the missiles proximity or contact fuse, then nosed to the ground for a hard landing, screeching composites, burning fuel, windscreen cracking. Otherwise alright, he locked and loaded a little service weapon he brought along, a CM-16 assault rifle (PROHT doesn't issue pistols), hopped out and tryed to look casual as he walked out of the now burning warehouse, and to complete his theatrics he turned around and fired a burst into the warehouse, in a way, to make it look as if he shot the pilot.

OTC-1
The commander eventualy heard of the occurances going on and knew his forces had crossed a line, and where playing with the big boys, what they had believed would be a walk in the park holding some unstable government's hand as they strived for self-sufficiency, had turned into World War IX.

He called up a direct landline, free of bugs, to the PROHT ministry, and asked forimmediate assistance from Task Force 4 and the rest of the Mechanized Marine Brigade already in Chitzland, along with 2 more Railgun Battalions. Along with some 'special shells'.

He then phoned the Pudites, and asked for terms and conditions of surrendering Chitzland to its fate as a territory/protectate of Emporer Pudu/Kravania, and even enquired as to who would get what if they won. He tried his best to sound as if he sincerely wanted to leave Chitzland alone.

He still wanted artillry spotters, and things where getting grim, he asked the Zepplin to return to PROHT, but sent the Blimp to Providence to 'check on the inhabitants and give relief aid'.

He then sent the two MPP-2s to circle south of Ort and help the CR-18ERs aim their guns later, it would take a while for the plane to make the journey and remain out of RADAR rang and remain inconpicuios.

(An MPP-2 is also a commercial PROHT Airliner class, much like the Douglas DC-3/C-47 transport/gunship)

OOC: I escorted the Pilot to the Airfield Hurtful. Also I'm not using the Chezland Radar stations I'm using a constant sattelite uplink, And the Lone Alliance uses radiation weapons for offensive and defensive purposes, however you'll see nothing more than neutron bombs for this battle. Just as good as an FAE and the types that the Lone Alliance use are ones with a quick Half-life. In fact here is a premier of even more Rad useage.

-Hakkan Airfield-
The rest of the planes departed to intercept the incoming 'stealth' planes.
Outside of Hakkan Combat Controllers hid waiting to paint any incoming missiles with a dose of Gamma rays from their Rad cannons. The Ambushers were in for an Ambush. Parthia would suffer greatly for their foolishness.

Sonar can't detect humans. It's for the same reasons why we cant detect dolphins either. We're too small.

OOC: Look guys this thread getting a tad out of control . You can not just nuke the crap out of someone, especially if you are a democracy. And dictators and nuke dont really go together with democratic societys. So basically, no NBCs unless someone launches one. This includes any sort of bombs that use a nuclear technology to function (neutron bombs, dirty bombs are included), any Biological weapon, and Chemical weapons. You also need a strong economy to be able to afford to buy and maintain such weapons.

Also, especially with our newer rpers, stretch out your posts a lot more. Don't go whatever, thats an OOC response and should be indicated as so (avoid as much OOC chatter as your can, its ruins the pace). Also, put it in the perspective of the mission commander, soldiers, politician (depending on who would be relevent to reply to such a message. Don't just go To blah blah. We will do this. Make it look like a letter, cause it is. Which means more then one line.

Other from that, I like the enthusiasm from you lot. Keep posting.

Keep in mind Chitzland is no bigger then Korea/Michigan (excluding UP)/Sri Lanka/Italy

A nuke would pretty much fry half the county in a firestorm (10 megaton nuke creates enough heat (that bright ligh carries heat) to light buildings on fire 70 miles away, even though the blast is limited to 30 miles.

In fact, the heat effect is exactly what the American "Duck and cover" was designed to help you survive. (the old desks where required to resist the heat wave long enough for you to survive)

And if a nuke does go off in Locke, that would mean PROHT no longer has to worry about keeping the Chitzis safe. since they'd all be dead for the most part.

Now, if nobody objects let's get back to IC!

Endnote, SONAR does detect dolphins, SONAR operators are trained to ignore them though.
OOC:Pudu, you dont know I said this. so dont even IC back. also, its a joke.

can't we all just nuke pudu?It would be so much easier if we just eliminated the threat.

OOC: My nation has held and maintained nuclear weapons since its conception. Their use is in no way a problem for us. Also, if you nuke Locke, why would we have any inhibitions as to turning the rest of the nation into nuclear slag...

As great as nuking Pudu sounds, this thread has very little to do with toppling Pudu and deflating his ego.

This has to deal with who wants to control Chitzland. Oh, and the future of their people (if they have one).

-TLA Military Command-
Serof: What is the damage report.
Beowulf: We lost the Carrier but the ship was abandoned. The Men expertly followered the drill and were clear within minutes.
Serof: The cruisers?
Beowulf: Heavy damage, the total human losses are unknown, but it's likely to be high.
Serof: Great... I'll contact the Council, we'll have to make a press release.

****TO COALITION******


No nuking. We're here to protect this country, not destroy it.

(OOC: What's happened since i've been away? Im sorry, i havent had time to do any IC posts latley. Sorry again.)

OOC: ...To think, me and Pythogria started this whole mess. I don't even know what's going on anymore.

As great as nuking Pudu sounds, this thread has very little to do with toppling Pudu and deflating his ego.

This has to deal with who wants to control Chitzland. Oh, and the future of their people (if they have one).

OOC: My ego is happy where it is, thank you.

ITS A JOKE

NEWS REPORT

GovTV
Merech Zanski ruffled his papers and started.
"The Zanx Government made a controversial move yesterday by erecting a bronze statue of myself. It was put on a major high street, to remind the Yrttalites that they are safe under the stable Zanx rule. But there happened to be a rebel gang in the crowd. After one soldier was shot by these rebels, the soldiers had to employ the shoot-to-kill tactic and managed to kill thirty rebels. I also am ashamed of the fact that twelve civillians were also shot in the stir.
A grenade was thrown at the statue by a Chitze rebel and two soldiers and three civillians were killed in the blast. Thus, seven thousand more soldiers are being sent in.

We the government have also come up with a plan to build

*new houses in Yrttal and sell them to the Lower Working class Zanx Citizens
and Lower Working Class Chitze Citizens

*A University of Zanski (UniZanx)

*Houses in Zanski for Chitze citizens fleeing the war


And also invest in Social Welfare, Education, and Peace."

Merech Zanski walked off the stage.

Hakkan Airfield

The missiles moved in, being hit by the gamma rays which destroyed the internal circuts and sent them falling down into the countryside. The reaction was quick, satellites detected the source of the rays, then calculated an intercept vector for a series of IRBMs. Each of the planes pulled back to a holding pattern beyond the assumed range of the gamma ray batteries, then, the IRBMs launched. Each of the 150 missiles flew up into the atmosphere, exiting into low earth orbit, before discharging a trio of unguided submunitions towards their targets. Their rocket motors kicked in, propelling them downwards directly on their targets, prepared to hit the batteries with a DU penetrator followed by 150 pounds of ONC explosive.

Another launch went out, firing 50 missiles, each of them unleashing a trio of anti-runway unguided munitions at the runways.

Lone Alliance Fleet

The Trireme missiles now activated their final phase, accelerating in at mach 2, moving directly towards the Lone Alliance fleet at an intense speed. In the air above, the terminal divind missiles were already activating their terminal dives, moving downwards at an intense speed, accelerating through both gravity and their boosters. Within minutes, the Lone Alliance ships were facing annihilation.

PROHT's railguns fell silent. The survivors of the counter artillery strike at leastknew they delayed (almost single handedly) two armies from overrunning Cghitzland for over 24 hrs, inflicted over 100,000 casuilties (PROHT propoganda estimate) and set up a large infrastructure for which Chitzland may defend itself.

OTC-1
The 1st Heavy artillery Brigade (2 fresh battalions and the bombed out one) packed up and started moving their guns to hidden locations along the track, eventually to make an artillery strike that made all previous look like a picnic.

A new shipment of HT-801 8 wheeled AFVs boasting capabilities slightly exceeding the HT-101.
Based on the HT-8 tractor, designed to tow PROHT T-90 tanks, and heavy aircraft, as well as handle the heavy loads of their airships.

Capable of towing 80 tons with the aid of its winches, or carry a load of 10 tons, it also is capable of fitting a CC-5 heavy cannon.

Also broght in with the rest of the Marine Brigade where towable R-148 MRBM launchers, to be towed behind an HT-101 or similar vehicle.

Ort
The pilot wondered if he was alive, the firestorm was getting very strong, and it had become difficult to hear over the roaring flames, almost impossable to walk, he 'climbed' his way out of the old warehouse, the winds behind him where so strong he saw cars sliding towards the fire. The soles of his shoes where melting to the pavement, not good, soon the asphalt will turn to glue and he'll be dead.

OOC: I did the Trireme missiles earlier that's what sunk my Carrier and Cruisers, and the Gamma Ray things are hand-held, I repeat Hand held, Many took off running after the strike.

-Defenses near Hakkan Airfield-
The soldiers scattered soon after taking out the first wave, except for the stragglers and those who stood in position, which were quickly atomized by the DU penetrators.

-Air above Hakkan-
The First wave of TLA planes, 12 F-22s, closed in on the Stealth Planes, opening fire with a swarm of dumbfire MIRV missiles designed to fill the sky full of Explosions. Miles behind S-37s Loaded up their Quick Strike FAF missiles.

-Hakkan-
Point Defense Laser systems, Patroit Batteries and 88mm AA guns went into action, on top of it all a new specialized Jamming system activated filling almost all un-modified Sensors with a barrage of Static, Non LA radios, Radar systems, and all Frequences were filled with a constant burst of Static for a 20 mile area.

Yesterday at 06:19 AM President Merech Zanski was found dead in his bed.
The Zanx government is experiencing problems from the Zanx public, as Merech was a much-loved idol and figurehead.He was also the one who founded the country, when he was only nineteen. He has ruled from 1939-2006 until his death yesterday. he was 86 and had a heart attack in his sleep from smoking cigars.

Marches will be arranged in Yrttal and supersonic planes will fly over the city.
His son, Merech Zanski II will rule from now until his death.

OOC: A little propaganda time...


City of Locke, Radio and Television Station, around seven o' clock

With the recent death of a high-ranking Zanskian official and the widely supposed death of the former President Copeland, the Pudite government had decided it was time to work over a few local minds. None of what was displayed was expected to change any opinions of the Pudite, merely to inspire fear or respect of the invaders, to make later moves through chaotic area easier.

The radio and television stations in Locke had long ago been taken over by Pudite troops, and now they would be put to use. A message, detailing the murder of President Merech Zanski by a Pudite assassin in his bed. The news reports coming out of Zanski were countered by the simple explanation of “contradictory government propaganda covering up their weaknesses.” This scheme was widespread over Chitzeland, although more so in non-coalition areas.

The second message was a television broadcast that for the most part was a Pudite suit standing behind a podium relating some heavily biased reports of combat on the eastern front and the future of the war. Towards the end however, another man was brought on. Even his own mother would have sworn it, it was President Copeland...

The Pudite official proceeded to promise him his nation back by the end of the year.

Locke, Dockyards, arrival of Pudite Taskforce 03

The force duded Taskforce 03 had recently arrived in the dockyards at Locke, dispatching over nine-hundred thousand vehicles and sixteen million more soldiers into the city. The fleet off the coast was reinforces too, with a further one-hundred and twenty ships.

The large, over five hundred ship fleet off Locke would now be put to use patrolling the seas off the coast of Pudite-held or contested areas, which extended to almost all of the waters of the North Sea. Submarines operating in five-ship anti-shipping patrols would limit the number of enemy supplies coming into the peninsula. Larger, seven-ship patrols of three Carthage class Cruisers, one Roydia class Battleship, and four Swiftsure class destroyers, would operate in the sea as well, attacking any enemy shipping or small fleets they encounter, and reporting in on anything else.

OOC
Pudu, you skipped at least a days march, and ignored FB-3, which is occupied 100 miles east of Herholtzer and about 25 miles north of the road you are taking. This Fire base though formerly lacking large railguns, was the next step for attacking Locke, FB-2 was merely a stepping stone.

You also ignored the ground recon platoon which is actually placed on the road, and the blimp heading for Providence.

No pulling fast ones please.

You also stated yourself that Locke and Accen are deviod of Chitzi citizens. Making your propogada opintless at best.

And, PROHT forces are querrying terms of agrement for surrendering Chitzland.

Solution
Back up your IC at least 24 hrs. (last I checked it would take your forces 4 days and you are on day 2-3)

Chances are you skipped this day to avoid another shelling...

OOC: Ok, I've been gone for a couple days and I skimmed the posts and saw only things between you and Parthians. Fix that later, sleep now. I didn't skip a day to avoid shelling, as I was unaware those were going on. I noticed your railguns were destroyed and assumed that was stopping anyway...

True, Parthians destroyed most of my railguns, and all my railguns at FB-2.

But the initial wave of 4 CR-18ERs (in OTC-1 at the time) are still in working order, and are being sent to FB-3, and chances are, a few of the damaged railguns may be returned and repaired (but shall be out of action for the remainder of the RP) in the meantime, the reinforcemnts called up (once enemy troops strength estimeates started coming in) consisting of 2 Marine Battalions, and 2 Railgun battalions, and an MEU Brigade.

CR-18ERs stopped firing to prevent themselves from drawing fire after the rest of the guns where knocked out.

Work is being made on FB-4, a mere 100 miles from Locke.

To buy the PROHT troops some time, we are starting peace nagotiations, pending an all round cease to all hostile aggressions. his may not go over well with the Chitzis...

Hopefully, the Revolutionary Directate will kindly dig up Copeland's dead body for the benifit of their viewers, before your propoganda takes hold. Might want to hold true to th 'died in a riot' story.

If anybody cares, the FMX-6B pilot was sucked into the firestorm kicking and screaming.

Mind if I consider the above 'attack' to be depicted via leaflet. Since Herholtzer is only occupied by 3 divisions of Chitzis and a few military advisors, and a few troops n transi to more advanced positions.

Now for the IC benifit, The letter:

From: Herholtzer
To: Locke
Re: Surrender

This 'war' has taken on preportions that our Foriegn Affairs Minister failed to comprehend, and therefore, we wish to back out of the conflict. Provided the following.


We are paid by the government that claims to own 'Chitzland' 50% of its total GDP over a minimum of 10 years
.
Said government shall become a protectate for 5 years after the next successful election, and hold a minimum of 1 PROHT division at all times before the 'pull out date'
.
PROHT oversees all economic and military production in area known presently as 'Chitzland' for a duartion of 10 years
.
PROHT resserves at least one full time military base Garrison in 'Chitzland, and another in each of its territories.
.
Exclusive trading rights


Since your nation claims to be part of said landmass, it was thought appropriate to give you the 'Bill'.

The first installment is due upon our cesation of hostilities with your nation.

As I said, you took the bludgeon, I took the scalpel.

OOC: You wanna dig up a body, we'll call it a lie. Simple as that.

To: Herholtzer
From: Mr. White, foregin affairs officer
Subject: Surrender
Message: We will consider your offer, with the following changes;

- As "The Revolutionary Dictatorship" claims ownership of Chitzeland as of now, this will be taken up with them. You will recive nothing from us.

- PROHT troops will only be allowed in non-Pudite controlled areas.

- PROHT not oversee any production, manufacturing, or construction of any kind in a Pudite controlled area.

- PROHT will not be allowed any military bases or permanent presence in any Pudite controlled areas.

- The Dominion does not engage in foreign trade excepting the essential natural resources brought in overland by close allies.

Again, The Dominion will only maintain a presence in a very small area of the nation of Chitzeland, with a slightly larger portion given to a Pudite puppet headed by Copeland, with a majority of the nation's fate to be disputed over between the Coalition, The Revolutionary Dictatorship, Kravania, and The Parthians. Take all other matters up with these parties, as we cannot speak for them.

Good day,
Mr. White

OOC: What did you mean by 'part of said landmass' becuase my nation is not anywhere near Chitseland. It's located along a friged northern coastline on a sparsly populated and heavily forested island and surrounded by three close allies, and thousands of miles of empty space...

To: Locke, Emporer Pudu, Parthians and Kravania.
From Herholtzer
RE: Counter demands and explanations on demands

Is it not true that your Pudite forces occupy Locke, and Parthians ccupy Ort and initially intended to annex "Chitzland" (PROHT doesn't care what you call it or who owns it), both implying that your countries own - if at least partly - areas formerly known as the Demecratic Republic of Chitzland?

Therefore, if we are to recognize your annexation and occupation as legal, you must at least pay us at least part of the fees agreed upon before your involvment. 50% of your respective GDPs was deemed reasonable after you and your allies started killing non-combatants.

To garauntee that your forces maintain peace and prosperity we must insist that you let at least one PROHT Division freedom to patrol the entire area unmolested. Due to recent rumurs of genocide, PROHT fears for the populacnce's safety.

Chitzi forces shall oversee their own internal security entirely, but involved countries may provide advisors and hardware to carry out their resperctive tasks.

Since the intention of PROHT's involvement was to get the local area's economy back up and running, we again insist on our involvment, your involvment will in turn be regulated as the local population sees fit.

Finally, if you truely wish for an end to all hostilities, you will end this war immediately. And all current borders and boundries shall be fixed.

Parthian Air Group 1, 35 miles from Hakkan

The Parthian air forces now detected the swarm of missiles moving in, without any real guidance simply detonating all around, easy to move away from, yet still destroying three planes. The F-22s now moving towards them were not to be as fortunate.

150 HAMRAAM missiles flew out of the undercarriages of the ACI-73s, rocketing towards the F-22s moving towards them as the Parthians held position. They would allow the F-22s to come to them, and destroy them, before the F/A-91s made a second strike with the remaining missiles. Once that was finished, Hakkan airfieild would no longer be a thorn in Parthia's side.

Ort

The warehouse fire was not completely unnoticed, a squad of Parthians were moving on the scene, scanning the area for any trace of the downed plane. Not too far from the warehouse, the pilot slowly was walking out of the area, not something which would be considered especially smart, staying out of cover and in the heavily lit area around the blaze. The squad moved into position, setting themselves up along a pair of parked trucks, shouldering their weapons and giving a simple command, "Get down on the ground and drop your weapon."

All around the city, new elements of the Parthian expeditionary force were making their way through, offloaded from the docks, preparing for the next strike as the coalition seemed content to hold back Pudites and made no move to hold back the Parthian forces.

Official Reply to Herholtzer

The terms of peace you offer are beyond audacious and inappropriate for your position, but also, insulting to the Shahdom and our allies. None of us will pay even .01% of our nations' GDPs for the purpose of maintaining your presence in Chitzland. Your demand for 50% of Parthia's GDP is downright insulting, considering our GDP is a bit less than 10x the GDP of your nation, we will not consider such a rediculous idea, and if mentioned again in a serious proposal, will entail a Parthian force being sent directly to the PROHT homeland with the intent of absolute annexation of the entire Peoples' Republic.

Furthermore, the only way to ensure exit from the conflict is a total and unconditional pullout of all forces from Chitzeland, we will not allow a cessation of hostilities on any other grounds and will continue to decimate your forces until such an agreement is met. If that is not agreed to, then Parthia will be forced to continue to continue until they are expelled by force.

They hastily dug 5 foxholes upon arrival, and launched a few MMP-1 UAVs, they found nothing unusual, except a line of refugees. They decided to contine eastwards and check again.

When they came across the refugees they heard about the Pudites, usual stuff, some exageratd bits on genocide and over a milion men in Locke.

Yeah, right, as if a country would want this hole badly enough to send 1 million men, and then hole them up to get shelled at liesure...

The PROHT advisors noted that the Chitzi units under their charge where a little unerved by these stories, so the advisors quickly claimed them to be propoganda in its simplest, and most effective form.

They suggested the refugees report to Herholtzer, where they may seek shelter, and if need be, evacuation.

They heard heavy shells scream overhead for most of that day, only to sudenly stop around 1400 hrs (Parthians's airstrike on FB-2 silencing the guns). The men didn't think much of it.
---
The next day they expected to wake up to the distant rumblings of the PROHT guns, but none came.

This made everyone uneasy, they knew a massive barrage was supposed to be fired today, that was why they where there in the first place, "perhaps they are using quiter shells?" some of the less intelligent men suggested. Another man gave a more grim prediction,"the guns are gone, we are on our own for now".

They set out another wave of MMP-1s, and this time they found something, over 10,000 mechnized troops marching parrellel to the same road they where on.

They quickly set the laborers about getting weapons of any sort, the task looked grim indead...

Then some "hope" came buzzing on the horizon, a PROHT airship, loaded with a few armored vehicles, guns, and additional artillery. The advisors issued the guns out to the civillian laborers:

These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value.
Thomas Paine Crisis Number One

Followed by the official PROHT battle cry:

Hurt 'em Plenty!
And
For Chitzland!



The laborers wher then parceled out with one advisor to every 4 laborers, they would have to learn how to fight on the battlefield. All other laborers where tasked with constructing tank traps and other fortifications. The somewhat trained Chitzi Combat engineer Platoon would be held in the front line, and would shoot one clip and retreat behind resserve lines and repeat, upon reaching the last line they would expend all but their last clip and charge. Land mines would be heavily used.

GovTV, live broadcast

President Zanski II walked up to the pedestal and started.
"Okay, the Zanx government has come to the conclusion that there is no time to sit and think about stuff. No time to just live in fear all day, all night. therefore, from now on, Zanski is a terrorist state. Yes, it will be stable, no, it will never be a dictatorship, yes, our civillians will be fine, but I'm talking about war here.The Chitze people must be terminated."

Just then, shots were fired. The president coughed up blood and fell to the floor. Soldiers came to the scene and fired into the crowd.
A few more shots were fired and a grenade was thrown at the soldiers.
Around seventy men, balaclava clad, were shooting. This was the Zanx Armed Terrorist Army, dedicated towards the public. One walked up to the pedestal.
He grabbed the half-dead leader of the nation and shot him once more.
This man, was Jarak Arma, former head of ZATA, but now president of Zanski.

Just saying, our president is now President Arma.

Good day,
Mr. White

Pudite Occupied Chitzeland, nearly everywhere, weeks during occupation

In the intrest of further securing the borders of the Pudite occupied Chitzeland a large number of fortress-compounds are being constructed along roadways, rivers, coastlines, and in strategic positions across the nation.

These buildings will be large, each containing a garrison total of fifty thousand soldiers, who will camp on-site untill the buildings are complete. Each fortress will be over forty acres square steel-renforced concrete walls with ballistic-reducing ceramic and kevlar inlays for every foot of material, of which there will be three in the outside walls. The fortresses will be designed in star-shaped patterns, as the slanted walls helping to reduce kinetic force. Towers will be fifty feet tall at every one of the five points of the star, and will have a clear view over the seven miles of cleared land surrounding them.

Each fort can also contain many hundreds of vehicles in their underground garages, and strike out at advancing enemies with massive emplaced guns, as well as having room to accomodate many other conventional howitzers.

In addition to these fortresses, dozens of large refugee cities are being constructed outside the major cities and population areas to contain the captured civilians. Pre-fabricated buildings will be brought in from the dominion, and food will be provided by way of community center cafeterias. The refugees will be well-cared for, as the Dominion has an advanced medical techonology sector and a massive food-producing majority population. Also stationed in these camps will be ten-thousand soldiers encamped outside, to serve as a guard and peacekeepers.

Over the course of the next two months all Chitze civillians are expected to be either inhabiting the Pudite camps, or deported to the more uncontrolled, dangerous sections of the country, as per their own request of course.

The fortifications are progressing steadily and are expected to be complete over the course of the next seven years. Borders are being established, and barring any further attacks by Chitze or Coalition forces, the only duty of the Orthae and Guardians in-country would be peacekeeping and supression of the few dissenters left in the areas occupied.

Good day,
Mr. White

Ort-Providence Highway, 5 miles from Ort

Three Parthian divisions, the frontal guard of a far larger force being prepared to march upon Ort now moved along the major roadway. Two divisions were holding back, the 33rd Armored and 5th Mechanized, but the 14th Mechanized division was moving ahead, working as a reconaissance force to determine any presence along the road ahead. Each Parthian mechanized division was usually 18,000 strong, while armored divisions each boasted 1,200 MBTs.

Lording over the newly created 10th Corps, Field-Marshall Rostam Shahjarian stood in the open hatch of his M-29 MBT, smoking a cigarette as the tank rumbled over terrain along the roadway. He smiled a bit as PAH-66 helicopters passed overhead, sending the trees into a windy sway. General Shahjarian was suprisingly uninformed of where the PROHT forces were at, or even where their advance brigades were. Hopefully, they would discover the location of at least a small force waiting for destruction.

14th Mechanized Division, 2 miles ahead of 10th Corps command

General Shapur Kayamaran looked out from his command vehicle, an M-35 IFV at the scenery ahead of him, watching for signs of enemy activity, waiting for the inevitable fire of a gunshot. He was worried a bit, no general liked to march into the unknown, perhaps even a whole PROHT Corps was waiting ahead, yet, he could not return to the main column with his superiors giving direct orders to move ahead. He gave a simple order into the radio, send recon forces ahead. Hummers and AGS would move ahead of his division, then return with the position of enemy forces once they were discovered.

Near Hakkan Airfield

The Parthian planes moved away from the missiles, taking only 3 casualties as the missiles failed in most cases to maintain radar lock upon the stealth fighter aircraft. Their radars were downed, but they saw the F-22s were now gone, forcing them to return to Ort, knowing The Lone Alliance and their base in Hakkan were to no longer trouble Parthia.

Message to Mr. White

We give our personal assurance, that in return for a recognition of Parthian claims in the region as well, we will make no attempt to infringe upon the colonies or territories of the Pudite state. Furthermore, we will act upon any nation that infringes upon your territories with absolute force.

-Shah Khosru III

OOC: Do you have a map of your claims?

To Mr. White
From: PROHT Foreign Affairs Minister: Gen. Major

We graciously accept your terms and conditions, your plot of land is now recognized to be a soverign nation that shall be temporarily dubbed "East Chitzland". PROHT shall seek no further agressions on the matter, since we are only here to stop invasions, not civil wars.

Recon Base Charlie
Another day and night passed, nothing happened, no advance, no attack, no charge. This was getting confusing. The men flew another UAV to see what was holding the up, they simply stopped, a few where digging in while most of the force seemed to be withdrawing.

The group decided to break radio silence:
"What just happened, we just saw over 100,000 Pudites advance to within 50 miles of us then turn aruond"

Response:
"We managed to form a cease fire, hold positions"

It was later decided, that due to the recon post's position, it would be an excellent location for another Officer Training Camp.

OTC-1 and firebases
New orders to cease all hostilities with the Pudites and focus on The Parthians, Pythogria, and Kravania. Railheads where already under construction making FB-2B through D and FB-3B to D etc.

Operation Quick Strike

Ten stealth bombers moved overhead, B-9s loaded with missiles, each moving towards a railroad junction near Providence. At 65,000 feet, they each launched a pair of AGM-240 Quinquereme missiles. From 50 miles away, the missiles accelerated with the assistance of the SCRAMjet motors, before activating their directional thrusters over their target, diving down at Mach 20 with a DU spike and several hundred pounds of ONC explosive ensuring an effective punch.

The target was simple, 5 major rail junctions in Providence were to be hit by a pair of AGM-240s, destroying their ability to operate, but that would not be the end, it was only the first strike designed to remove the ability of PROHT forces to create railgun firebases which to this point had eluded the detection of Parthian satellites.

OOC: My map claims are in the messages I sent to everyone and the one to PROHT. I believe the second one details the locations of my bases that are under construction. The larger spots are Commune Commanderies, all headed by the foreign colonies District Commandery located in Locke.

Wow, I havent fired those railguns since the last air strike and yet they keep sending more.

I love mountain bunkers. Anzio Annie Style.

And for the last time, the FMX-6B pilot downed in Ort crashed too close to the firestorm and died a very horrific death (though he did survive the crash)

Various locations along the Northern Frontier Railway
A force of 500 Combat engineers and 2,500 paid laborers worked tirelessly to keep the railways open, thus allowing masses of supplies to be distributed throughout Chitzland.

(Kinda like Ho Chi Mihn trail repairs, multiple parallel railheads)

402nd Rail Artillery, Charlie Brigade, Battalions 1, 2, 3 and what was left of 5.
Various Fire bases
As soon as the all clear siren sounded,the guns wher finally dragged out of hiding, and placed onto their firing pedestals (some simply fired from the track) towards Ort and highways nearby. They fired for one hour, then slunk back into hiding.

RAP-ER-L type shells, mines, cluster bombs and leaflets
2600 shells, 260 tons

*Note, many of these new 'fire bases' are nothing more than a camaflaged firing pedestal, and a short tunel via a camaflaged rail.

Providence
PROHT/Chitze forces marched through Providence, in a wide show of force, and set up a few recruiting posters for the new OTC-2. The Chitze 1st SF Division, 2nd Mechanized, 3rd Mobile Divisions , aided by PROHT 203rd Marine Logistics Division, and the 2nd Marine Division Delta Bragiade [02B].

A blimp could be seen overhead.

OTC-1
All railguns had left to therir remote firing locations, and the training base was on its second cyclle of 5 Divisions in training, trained by the PROHT 4th MEU (SOC) [size of a Brigade]. At sea could be seen PROHT's very own Task Force 4, headed by the heavy cruiser: HTS Dunkirk.

MPP-2, recon patrol
The two large seaplanes had accomplished their dogleg around the invading fleet to the south, ad now started to approach from behind.
(should I list armarment?)

OTC-2/Recon Base Charlie
The guns of August have returned... The men tuned into a radio station and heard that an agreement has been made to parcel out "East Chitzland" to the Pudites for peace. They also heard of the invasion in Ort, and reports from the sole survivor on an ill fated air strike against the Parthians.

TO: All combatants, Chitzeland Confilct
FROM: Department of Foreign Affairs, Northern Colonies
SUBJECT: Chitzeland Conflict

In accordance with the Intervention Order #4303, Parliament had decided to revoke the order. This would mean that all Northern Colonies troops, and naval presence will be pulled out of the region. We request that the bodies of the 4 men who died at the Locke raid be returned to us as soon as possible.

To all members of the Coalition, and the Revolutionary Dictatorship, we have set up a Coalition chest, where with the appoval of Cabinet, members will be able to pull money in support for this conflict. The fund will have up to $1 Billion, and will be given in goods. Money will only be handed out for humanitarian reasons. [OOC: Basically TG me if you need to buy equipment]

We wish to be able to stop this conflict as soon as possible, and all parties should insure that some sort of cease fire deal is arranged.

Yours Sincerely,

OOC: I'm not leaving the RP, just leaving the war...

"East Chitzeland", designated foreign District 001, Pudite Garrisons

In response to the declining need for supreme force in the Chitzeland theater, many Pudite troops, vehicles, and ships will be pulled from operation in that location and returned to acive readiness in their bases in the Dominion.

In total, only one-million four hundred thousand Pudite Guardians, forty-one thousand Mekhev main battle tanks, eighty-two thousand SIV-25 infantry fighting vehicles, sixty-seven thousand Z-38 self propelled howitzers, twenty thousand five hundred Z-40 heavy self propelled howitzers, forty-three thousand Tunguska low-level air defence systems, two-hundred and eight thousand LV-08 light infantry vehicles, eight-hudnred and twenty Scimitar fighters, six-hundred and twenty five Swordfish strike aircraft, five-hundred and ninty Tiger interceptors, sixty Vulcan heavy bombers, one-thousand six-hundred and fifteen Sparrow attack helicopters, eight-hundred and twenty five Swallow light maritime helicopters, and two-thousand seven hundred and eight five Commorant medium transport helicopters.

Supporting these forces off shore will be two Calypso class superdreadnoughts, six Antietam class heavy battleships, two Gavin Newsom class hypercarriers, four Forrest class fleet carriers, twelve Roydia class battleships, eight Alliance class supercruisers, fourteen Monitor class heavy cruisers, sixteen Helina class battlecruisers, twenty Portlandia class cruisers, twenty-four Triara class light cruisers, twenty-six swiftsure class destroyers, thirty Champlain class frigates, and sixty Spirit class attack submarines.

These remaining forces would spend much of their time conducting armed ground-level recconisance of the surrounding territory in their areas and making sure the transistion of the native populace to the refugee cities goes smoothly.

The naval forces will spend their time in port, waiting for orders and condicting readiness drills. The submarines force, however, will still be quite active, comducting their own off-shore recconisance out to a distance of seventy five miles off shore. They won't engage anything, but will keep logs of anything they encounter and its speed, armament if obvious, and current course.

Locke, foreign District 001, reconsructed airfeild

An effort was made to reconstruct the bodies of the four killed PROHT soldiers after their short absence to the large open pit outside of the city where other casualties of Locke were to be buried, save the Pudite deaths, all of whom were to be cremated. Soon after they were to be shipped back to Hurtfull Thoughts via a small, unarmed Coba transport plane.

Coffins were provided, but becuase nobody in the Dominion had any experience or knowledge of their construction, shape, or even basic purpose, they were simply wooden supply boxes for 30mm autocannon ammunition with the designations sanded off and replaced with a spraypaint sptenciled P-R-O-H-T -- E-X-P-R-E-S-S -- D-E-L-I-V-E-R-Y order in red.

OOC: I'm leaving the war. It's getting too messy. If there's a peace thing, than yes im in it but.

President Jarak Arma started his first speech on GovTV ever with a tear in his eye.

"I have left my old freedom fighting ways, my old 'Bomb them if they don`t respond' ways. Although ZATA is still at large, it must be noted that, although they call themselves terrorists, they are Freedom Fighters. That's what they are and always have been. In responce to the recent explosion of retreating, all sixty thousand Zanx troops will be pulled out. Seven hundred tanks, three hundred sonicmasters, one thousand armoured vehicles and eight airbusses will also be pulled out.
One million Freedom Fighters are also coming back home.
But, regrettedly, four hundred fallen Zanx warriors... The best of the best... are coming to rest in Zanx soil. Therefore, I have also commissioned a memorial building to be built, with a forty-acre graveyard.

May they rest in peace."

Meanwhile
PROHT Ministry, Notoorough PROHT
The PROHT ministry of foriegn affairs recieved 4 coffins from Emporer Pudu, claiming they where from Locke. This package was promptly returned.

To: Locke
From: Notoorough PROHT
It appears as if you mailed these corpses to the wrong country. Also, PROHT would ike to assist in demining and cleanup operations in Locke and Accen East Chitzeland.

They mailed back the modified 30 mm Autocannon Ammo boxes/"coffns" free of charge

FB-2
A small memoial shrine was set in place, honoring those who had fallen in battle against the Parthians attack.

Locke, foreign District 001, reconstructed airfeild

The confusion caused by the return of the "coffins" angered Pudite commanders at the airfeild, and so it was decided that these four dead foreigners were not worth the bother. All four were removed from the ammunition boxes and buried outside the city. The boxes would be sanded once again and re-labeled to serve their original purpose.

Good day,
Mr. White

OOC: Sorry, I had no idea that happened to the pilot, disregard the part I messed up on.

IC:

Ort

The shells began to rain down, pounding the rubble of the city, hitting men too foolish to find cover, a rain of shells that pounded from the skies. It was an hour of hell, followed by the scene of destruction, 1500 dead, 2300 wounded, 92 vehicles were destroyed.

The Advance corps suffered their share of the brunt, when the shells started hitting, they scattered off the highway, but they too lost 900 men and 30 vehicles, calling for response to the bombardment the entire time on radioes.

The Parthians were quick to react, satellite overpasses showed the muzzle flashes of many railguns, a position they assumed was a good one to strike considering their inability to see the moving system set up to hide them from attack, beyond the ability of normal bombs to reach. Within minutes, the order went out for a strike to begin.

Advance Corps

The Parthians knew they had to move forward, it wouldn't be long before the other two corps, Each consisting of five divisions of infantry and one division of armor moved to their position. Together, they knew, 12 divisions of mechanized infantry and 3 divisions of armor which would descend on Providence like a maniacal horde.

Reports had begun to come in, the road to Providence was virtually undefended, all they would face would be the city itself and the relativley token force the PROHT had stationed there. Overall leader of the Parthian Expeditionary force, Lord-Marshall Ardeshir Fardmanesh knew that soon the defenses of Providence would be bolstered through the use of Chitzi recruits, 20 divisions, according to intelligence, so they now expected for a simple solution, more manpower, they would add a further six corps to the fray, bringing the total strength to be 36 mechanized infantry and 9 armored divisions, along with two independent divisions of artillery, and a division of airmobile units. Certainly, Providence would be unable to hold.

Flight Shahanshahi

250 ACI-73s moved out, the stealth fighters flying high above searching for enemy aircraft in the area. Following them, 150 F/A-91s flew at 25,000 feet, armed with GPS guided strike missiles designed to destroy targets based off satellite imagery, pinpointing the exact location of the intended target into the computer, then guiding it there with GPS. Interspersed amongst them, E-6s provided electronic cover, creating circles of jamming around them, covering the aircraft they flew with from the eyes of radar operators. The first strike came, E-6s unleshed 45 HARM missiles at enemy radars in the firebase area, followed by a total barrage of 130 ASMs targetted at the assumed gun sites. The fighter bombers then prepared their next missiles, preparing to target enemy AA and SAM batteries from 35 miles away while the next phase moved into completion.

Behind the first wave, 45 B-9 bombers moved ahead, camoflauged with stealth, loaded with 2000lb bombs, which they would use to carpet the firing areas with ordinance. Though, they would not be the last unit, 10 miles behind even those, a division of Airmobile units flew through the air, preparing to make a jump directly onto enemy positions before they could recover from the bombing. They were then ordered to hold the area, to create a zone which would be resupplied by air to distract Coalition forces in the area.

One hour later: (assuming it took awhile to scramble those bombers and fly them to Chitzeland from Parthians) Or, After the shelling

Scattered Firebases
All guns then receeded into their cozy little bunkers and the infantry dispersed.

OTC-2
The facilities had recently become occupied, and the first session of formal training begins for the day.
(OOCly wondering if you planned on sending paratroops here, so I might as well describe it)

The original 'base' became a command center, and trench combat training center. A small zone to the east was designated for live fire exercises and artilery practice. To the South was the recruiting center. To the North was the main supply depot, and to the west where the classrooms and barracks made of prefabricated huts in staggered columns.

The first class consisted of the 200 Chitzi laborers that had volunteered to defend the place even without any training, these men and women had spirit, and lots of it, some where already marksmen from the civil war, and some also had already seen their fair share of fighting, now they would be trained to fight efficiently.

About 100 miles South of Ort
The two MPP-2 seaplanes came in, one high the other low, one searched the surface while the other searched fpor subs, andwould also fire upon the ever trigger happy gunboats. They then sighted the enemy fleet, and then gave co-ordnates for the HTS-Dunkirk to stat delivering the hurt.

Task Force 4: CC-4 HTS-Dunkirk
With a pair of its massive 18" CR-18ER guns, aimed at the first set of co-ordnates given by the patrol. It would take 5 minutes for the reports for the first shells to come back, so they expected to fire a wide 10 shell spread in that time, and correct their aim later. They fired AP-shot.

Is it your wish to occupy all Chitzeland, or only a portion? I want to be clear on all aspects of our treaty before i sign. But at the moment, i will consider a Cease Fire, but not a permenant end of war to be in effect. I will not conduct any military operations against you, as long as you do the same for me. Explain how you wish to divide Chitzeland, and we will work this out. No one else needs to die.

Flight Shahanshahi

As the bombs and missiles had run their course, the Airmobile divisions began to prepare for the inevitable drops over their targets. FB-3 and FB-4 were the ones slated for the missile and bomb attacks, and once those were finished, the Parthian paratroops began their jumps from the C-130s. Each firebase was to be seized through the use of one of the three regiments of the Parthian 33rd Airmobile Division

As each of the loading ramps went down, hundreds of troops jumped from the rear of the planes, filling the skies with thousands upon thousands of parachutes. AGS were dropped from other planes, floating down to the ground with the help of their own parachutes, while at the same time, more planes began to arrive.

Regiment 33A was deployed in a position roughly 1/2 a mile from each of the batteries of Firebase 3, while 33B was in a similar position. 33C was being held in reserve in Ort, for use on FB-2 within a few hours to a day.

Soon, the PROHT would feel the sledgehammer of Parthia.

Parthian Grand Fleet

The shells started to fall, hitting a pair of destroyers and destroying them both in a massive ball of fire. Radar went active, and within several minutes, the Parthian fleet was about to put down munitions on such a scale to make it absolutley rediculous. The superdreadnought Shahanshah Khosru opened fire with 25 inch ETC guns, blasting with radar guided weaponry that could tear ships apart. Following them, 30 AGM-230 Trireme missiles flew from the decks of several ships, cruising subsonically within a few feet of the water's surface, before accelerating to mach 2 when the target was within 60 miles, driving themselves in before executing a terminal pop up to confuse enemy CIWS.

The final solution was yet better, at 5 AGM-240 missiles rocketed from the deck of the Parthian superdreadnought Shahanshah Ardeshir, each flew to 80,000 feet, before jetissoning the first stage. A SCRAMjet engine took over, climing to 120,000 feet, before shooting towards the target at mach 6. When the missiles were above the unfortunate ship, they each released directional thrusters, shooting downwards and accerlerating to Mach 20 in a terminal dive, drilling into the ship with a DU spike and detonating 250 pounds of ONC explosive.

OOC: look at the link in the little "attatched file" line under my message to you, before my closing.
