This is where we'll have our war.

Sounds good.

******************************

The Talons gracefully flew through the vacuum of space, flying in orbit of Earth. They prepared to make reentry, and engaged their main engines as they hit the atmosphere.

All was ready for the Falcon's Awakening...

General Roberts has sent out a declaration that major Errikan trading fleets shall be escorted by Errikan naval vessles. However, this does not mean that all other Errikans are unprotected. Do not harm a single Errikan.

"We will gladly trade with both sides . . ."

OOC-don't forget that we've set-up a lot of defense.

-----

The soldiers were taking positions that they did not know how long they would be in. Scout planes flew now, looking for signs of enemies. Zukariaan soldiers patrolled, looking for enemies.

-----

I really have no ideas right now.. V_V

General Duke Cryus and his six bodyguards arrived at the beach of one of many Zukariaan territories. The forty-year-old man looked at the soldiers.

"Who is the commanding officer here?"

A soldier stepped forward,"I am, who are you and what is your business here?"

Zukariaa']A soldier stepped forward,"I am, who are you and what is your business here?"
"My emperor suggested that I meet with the leader of the military forces within the Zukariaan territories, so that we may discuss battle strategies in private," the general replied. The bodyguards had their fingers on their triggers, ready to fire at the slightest sign of foul play.

"Right.." said the soldier. He motioned for him to follow and lead him to where General Johnson was.

Zukariaa']"Right.." said the soldier. He motioned for him to follow and lead him to where General Johnson was.
"I assume that you are the ranking officer on this island?" General Cryus said. The other man nodded. Cryus held out his hand. "General Duke Cryus, of the Empire of Demoras."

General Johnson put shook his hand,"General Johnson of the Empire of Zukariaa."
He sat down at table, motioning for Duke to do the same,"Now what do you need?"

OOC: What is your main strength: land, air, or sea combat?

And perhaps you should put a link to the Arterus map in the first post, for reference.

Hundreds of Talons beared down on Arterus, moving at hypersonic speeds. Almost nothing could possibly touch them save for some of the most advanced SAMs on the market, and they are extremely hard to detect due to a low RADAR signature.

The bombing campaign began, with precision bombs being dropped all across enemy-held positions. Most of the munitions dropped were regular, conventional warheads. Some, however, were fuel air bombs, ready to wipe out any military complex or force they were dropped on.

The first wave was near-impervious to hostile fire. The next few waves may not be so lucky, but at least the pilots of the Talons knew they were about to make a helluva mess.

OOC:Have I been shot at? Btw, total forces in Arterus:
33rd Sturmpanzer Battalion
34th Sturmpanzer Battalion
Total of 2 million Capitol Police, 1,000,000 of them active combat.

OOC: No, not yet. You are the next target, though.

OOC-Demoras, I'm best on land.

Zukariaan soldiers shouted orders as they came under attack. It was quick and deadly. 134 soldiers died, 13 tanks, some anti-air bits, and 4 fortifications. The soldiers prepared for another attack, planes launched and anti-air turrets were mounted. The next attack wouldn't be so easy.

OOC- Heh, you have no idea....

IC:

**********************

The bombing raids continued, now aimed at industrial areas and fortifications. Fuel air bombs were dropped over their targets, seconds later igniting. The Talons began using precision weapons less, and started using their more devastating weapons more often. Fuel air bombs fell from the craft, bursting at the appropriate altitude spreading gasoline and other flamable chemicals, then igniting them.

The Falcon has awaken... And it was pissed.

OOC-I have no idea what-so-ever how to combat your super stealth planes.. -_-

Zukariaa']OOC-I have no idea what-so-ever how to combat your super stealth planes.. -_-

OOC: If I were you, I'd just fire like mad into the sky. It's usually the most effective tactic against stealth aircraft. Also, these things aren't truly stealth, they're just a little harder to detect.

They do go very fast, though. Hypersonic fast... I guarantee you'll be able to counter my next raid, since I wanted to open this with a small strike with the cool planes.

OOC-alright. Also, do you think my planes would be effective at all? V_V

IC:
The soldiers were busy building up fortifications as another group of 20,000 troops landed on the shores, 300 tanks, and because of the air raid, 500 Zukariaan Fighter-Bombers.

The Anti-Air guns were doubled in amount, and the men were on alert, ready as any man could be. Artillery pieces were set up as well.

OOC-Whyatica, are you controlling the Kriegsmarines?

Zukariaa']OOC-alright. Also, do you think my planes would be effective at all? V_V

OOC: Eh....... Probably not........

OOC-Almost forgot!

The Zukariaan Special Operatives in the area had been ordered to look to the sky and warn of the first sign of movement. Because of their helmets, it would be easier.

OOC-that sucks..

ooc: Yes. IC tomorrow morning.

Zukariaa']OOC-Almost forgot!

OOC-that sucks..

OOC: If you can pick up something going Mach 5 (Mach 5 = 1,701.45 m/s), the you're more than welcome to try.

Mach 5? Geez, is shooting randomly even going to help? :rolleyes:

Zukariaa']Mach 5? Geez, is shooting randomly even going to help? :rolleyes:

OOC: Prolly not, but it at least it gives you something to do.

IC:

The first wave of the attack was deemed a success, and the fighters began heading home. The conventional attack would come tomorrow.

Meh, that sucks.

General Cryus looked at the carnage around him. He had been in one of the safer bunkers, and was unscathed from the attack.

"I believe this answers your question, General," Cryus said. "You are unmatched on land, but we have superior air and sea forces. So consider it a symbiotic relationship: we offer you sea and air supports, and you reinforce our ground troops. Do we have a deal?"

"Yes, I do." he replied.

OOC-heh, do you have any planes capable of fighting planes that move at Mach 5? V_V

OOC: That's the only one I have that goes Mach 5, so I won't use it again.

OOC: That's the only one I have that goes Mach 5, so I won't use it again.
Unless he takes out his fancy flagship again, I think we're good.

OOC: That's the only one I have that goes Mach 5, so I won't use it again.
OOC-oh, thought you were going to terrorize us over and over again. Does that mean my planes arn't completely useless?

Zukariaa']OOC-oh, thought you were going to terrorize us over and over again. Does that mean my planes arn't completely useless?

It would be bad form to use something you can't defend against. I'll use my more conventional aircraft anymore. Unless you really piss me off. (ICly, since I don't hold grudges OOC.) Then the 798 comes back.

Alright. I need to think up some more high tech stuff.. I'm just not good with all of the statistics that people come up with.

I guess I'll wait for someone else to RP. Hopefully Whyatica.

Zukariaa']Alright. I need to think up some more high tech stuff.. I'm just not good with all of the statistics that people come up with.

I guess I'll wait for someone else to RP. Hopefully Whyatica.

Stats are necessary in order to be able to RP in a sense. If I were you, I'd concentrate on buying designs from other nations if you're not good at designing, and working your skills up as time progresses.

OOC:Cravan, get on MSN!

In Kraven Arterus, the newly promoted officer Oberstkampf Furher Kareen Al-Aziz, the grandson of famous Aziz Anan, sat in an officer's barracks at the frontier of Kraven Arterus reading over reports and incoming messages. One struck out, the near-constant aerial raids on Zukariaa by Cravan bombers. He knew vaguely that Zukariaa had nothing to combat the stealth bombers, and Kareen pondered the next options for the shaky alliance between Kraven and Zukariaa. He knew that the Mainland Corporation had sent Zukariaa a battalion of Kriegsmarines, so he sent an order to them through the Arterus Command Relay,
Build a temporary airstrip and mulberry where you are and we will begin landing reinforcements and you'll recieve air power. Build the airstrip big enough to support 200 Axims and 150 Vanguards.

In Zukariaan Arterus, the Reichsmarshal in charge of the Kriegsmarines recieved the message and dispersed it throughout the marines. Harvesters chewed up a suitable block of land, 1.5km x 1.5km, for the airstrip. The Vanguard Virages were VTOL and did not need a concrete airstrip, but the Axims were not and needed either a dirt or concrete airstrip. The paving of the first runways began as in another part, a temporary mulberry dock was being set up so to accept Whyatican cargo and reinforcement. Nine hours later, when word was sent that the airstrip could accept planes, 150 Vanguard Virage general strike fighters launched off of Gorgoroth-class ubercarriers as they were called by the sailors, but officially referred to as ultracarriers.

They cruised across the seas to their airstrip, where they landed and were immediately refueled and armed with the small amounts of missiles that the airstrip had. Mobile SAM batteries were moved into position encircling the airstrip for several square miles, and 30mm CIWS and automated flak cannon systems were set up around the airstrip to further prevent assaults.

OOC: What is your guys MSN?

Dawn broke, and it was time for the main assault to begin. Hundreds upon hundreds of B-70 Torrents (think B-52) took off from around Cravan, preparing to initiate carpet bombing strikes. They flew at extreme high altitude to deliver their ordinance.

Meanwhile, hundreds upon hundreds of fighters, bombers, and other aircraft were prepared for massive night raids.

The enemy was not to be permitted sleep.

OOC: crave1991@hotmail.com

OOC-MSN messenger
And I'm going to wait to be attacked before I RP, because I can't think of anything at the moment.

The assault began, with thousands bombs falling all over Zukariaan and Demorasian held ares around the contintent. The bombers had initiated a carpet bombing tactic, and were ordered to level anything of interest.

OOC: These are conventional strategic bombers, so you shouldn't have a problem fighting back as long as you have competent SAM operators.

OOC-..0k..

Quickly, men began firing up into the sky. The anti-air guns ripped through the sky. Zukariaan fighter-bombers launched and fought back.

OOC-mind is dead right now. v_v

Official message:

From: Errikan Secretary of the Military and Commander of Arterus forces, General Michael Roberts
To: Cravan

It has come to our attention that you have begun an extensive bombing campaign in this region. Officially, we would like to warn you of the possibilites of collateral damage, and advise you to be very careful. After all, there is no need to involve more people then neccessary because of an accident. However, know that, should any Errikans be harmed, the Errikan government will reap justice.

That is a promise.

With our esteems,
General Michael Roberts and the entire Errikan Government

To: General Michael Roberts
From: Cravanian High Command

We realise this, and we will be careful. Also, as long as your nation is not affiliated with Kraven, your citizens should have nothing to worry about.

***********************

The bombers continued their assault, bobms falling all across areas held by Zukariaa and Demoras territories.

OOC: You have to go into a little more detail than that... You're not giving me much to work with here...

OOC-yeah, thats the problem.. I can't think of anything.

Zukariaa']OOC-yeah, thats the problem.. I can't think of anything.

OOC: I see. Take a little time to get your creative juices flowing.

OOC-and also, I don't really know a lot about military stuff. v_v
Also, I don't know if I'm aloud to say I killed one of your men.


IC:
Apart from the people dieing everywhere, the defense was going well. The men were firing and taking down enemy fighters while the planes in the air flew full speed at them.

"Firing rockets."
"Roger that."

The rockets launched off of the planes, flying directly at the enemy bombers. Hundreds of them. As they launched, the machine guns roared from below, ripping apart enemy craft.

Zukariaa']OOC-and also, I don't really know a lot about military stuff. v_v
Also, I don't know if I'm aloud to say I killed one of your men.

OOC: Didn't you read the stickies? You're not aloud to post you opponent's losses at all. It is up to them to decide.

Also, as I said you should just buy your weapons from the many storefronts if you don't know about military hardware. At least, until you know enough to begin designing yourself.

********************************
IC:

A few bombers went down from the missiles launched, but nothing major. They were too high for the enemy AA machine guns to be of any real effect, but the Kraven AA which had been lent to them were doing some damage. A few bombers had been lost, but so far the crews of the bombers had managed to punch out before hitting the ground. Sad part is they would be stuck behind the enemy's lines before anyhting could truly be done.

The assault continued...

OOC: Didn't you read the stickies? You're not aloud to post you opponent's losses at all. It is up to them to decide.

OOC-no, not amounts, as in during RP like where I said

As they launched, the machine guns roared from below, ripping apart enemy craft.

Is that alright?
Also, a few bombers? There was like a hundred missiles..

IC:
The fighter-bombers passed the enemy bombers, then quickly turned around. They were now firing on the enemies from behind.

Zukariaa']OOC-no, not amounts, as in during RP like where I said

IC:

OOC: If I were you, just change it to "It appeared as if they ripped apart the enemy aircraft."


IC:

As the missiles hit, more and more bombers went down. So far, most crewmen appeared to be able to eject over the enemy territory, and so far the raid had been considered a complete success.

It had been decided that these raids would become a daily occurrence, and the enemy could not be allowed a moment's rest. It is known that an army on constant alert never fairs well.

OOC-Alright. I need to be able to talk over some IM. Its easier.

IC:
As the bombing stopped, the men started to double up anti-air guns and bring in more planes. The enemies who had ejected were to be hunted down and killed.

[General Johnson]
If you do not stop with these raids, we will be forced to attack Desanna. Nuclear weapons are authorised. We do not wish to fight you.

Thank you.

To: General Johnson
From: Imperial Command

Where the hell have you been? Desanna fell days ago. Kraven is now in control of the island, with our forces spread out in the nothern areas.

Also: Any use of nuclear weapons on Cravan's holdings or forces will result in the use of strategic nuclear weaponry on Zukariaa's territories. Cravan is in possession of over 10,000 nuclear weapons in varying size and deployment. Do not make us use them.

*********************************

The pilots gently fell to the ground, immediately freeing themselves of their chutes and preparing for the ordeal they were about to endure...

OOC-no one told me Desanna was under control of Kraven, sorry.
Geez, I feel stupid.

Zukariaa']OOC-no one told me Desanna was under control of Kraven, sorry.
Geez, I feel stupid.

OOC: No problems. :)

[General Johnson]
We are not afraid. We will fight on. We do not wish to fight you.

A Zukariaan patrol was marching on a dirt road when one of them yelled,"Theres one!"
Down a hill was a wrecked pilot. The squad began firing.


OOC-Desanna was your only territory in Arterus, if its captured then where are your planes launching from?

To: General Johnson
You should be afraid. You should be very afraid. We can turn your nation into a plate glass window in a matter of miniutes. You have challeneged the falcon. When the falcon is challeneged, it does not walk away defeated.

*************************

Shit!

The pilot took cover, ducking into the bushes. He removed his P90 from his survival pack, and pulled the bolt, loading it. He went prone, and began spraying the patrol in bursts, hoping to kill them off.

A man was shot down, the rest of squad took cover and began firing.
(thats like 12 people with rifles)

[General Johnson]
We are not afraid.

Zukariaa']A man was shot down, the rest of squad took cover and began firing.

(OOC: I know, but it's not always numbers that count.)

*************************

He continued to fire, and gradually moved from cover to cover. He made several attempts to dart, but was pinned down from the constant fire.

*************************

To: General Johnson
That is very noble of you. You are either courageous from ignorance or utterly stupid. It does not matter, though.

(OOC-Desanna was your only territory in Arterus, if its captured then where are your planes launching from?)

A grenade flew through the air towards where the man was under cover. It exploded in a huge cload of dust a mud.

[General Johnson]
I would like to repeat myself: We do not wish to fight Cravan.

(OOC: You forget how internationally involved I am. Plus, strategic bombers have long distances, although alone they couldn't reach your holdings in Arterus. Therefore, I use allied airfields and airborne tankers to refuel)

***********************

The pilot was hit by the shrapnel, and was seriously injured. He shouted out:

"I GIVE UP!"

He threw his weapon to where it was visible by the Zukariaan forces.

***********************

To: General Johnson
If you do not wish to fight, then we will negotiate terms of your surrender.

The squad moved in from different sides, guns at the ready. They came around with guns directed at the pilot. They grabbed him and tied him up, then marched him back to camp.

[General Johnson]
We will not surrender!

OOC: You forgot to add me on the map. That small penninsula next to Aeson.

Do you actually control that land now? Or have you just landed?

We control it. And we've declared war on you.

I know you declared war on me.

I'll add you next time I update.

OOC: Okay.

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

After a few days, the territory and its facilities had been established. Colonel Sparks was looking at maps when a young officer ran into his room.

"Sir, Kraven forces are spreading on the Far Peninnsula."
"Don't worry about them. We aren't here to fight Kraven, we're here to help Cravan defeat Zukariaa."
"Yes, Sir."
"When are the bombers expected to arrive?"
"2 hours, do you have any change in your orders for them."
"No Lieutenant, the same as before. Bomb troop concentrations, bases, air strips. Anything Zukariaa."
"Yes, Sir."

He left the barracks and looked up at the sky. Cravan planes could be seen, along with helicopters.

OOC: Okay.

Cravan isn't only fighting me, they're fighting Kraven as well, and if your fighting me I'm pretty sure Kraven forces are going to help, just a heads up.
