The small landmass known as Lordis had never really belonged to anyone, yet people still moved to there anyways, and had gone so far as to create a government of sorts, run by a magistrate, and maintained by a small police force to help administer and run the rag tag collection of villages that had grown outwards from the main town.

Life had been simple enough, foreign expeditions showed up on a fair regular basis, and tradeships dropped by often enough to pick up foodstuffs and trade off foreign goods, or just so their crews could spend a night on land and that influx of foreign currency was more than enough to keep the magistracy afloat with little taxation. Currency was used, but barter was also common with weekly markets serving to keep everyone well stocked on food and other goods.

The foreign expeditions usually kept to themselves, going out into the outlands to catalog new species of birds and animals or to conduct geological studies, and occasionally to map out the island. One group, representing a coalition of nations, had even set up a radar tower, to keep track of civilian and military flights over the ocean. It had provided good income for a few years, but was eventually abandoned along with the small airstrip that serviced it, and most of the equipment was carried off by local farmers and sold to passing merchant ships.

This all changed however, when a Veragon science team discovered indication of oil, and a small series of sample drillings had revealed what was believed to be a massive reserve of oil buried beneath the rich Lordis wilds. The magistracy was uncertain about allowing foreign oil drilling, and had shut down the operation, and politely asked the Veragon team to leave. It only took a week until a pair of frigates escorted a merchantship into port, which promptly deposited a company of light armour backed by light infantry which marched straight to the town hall and secured the magistracy's surrender.

*Lordis broadcasting centre, under Veragon control*

The trio of Veragonian infanteers ceased their card game and stood up to greet the group of Lordisian police and the former magistrate as they entered the building. The former Lordisian government had been working closely with the Veragonian troops to ensure a smooth transition to Veragonian control, and part of that consisted of local radio broadcasts to the civilian populace, but there wasn't a broadcast scheduled for today. Worse yet, the police escorting the magistrate were bearing kalashnikovs.

"Welcome Magistrate, there aren't any scheduled broadcasts for-" the infanteer was cut off by a long pull of an AK on full auto. Follow up bursts resounded almost at the same instant and the three infantry collapsed into lifeless heaps.

The police grabbed the Veragonian weapons and tactical vests, donning them and keeping guard as the magistrate, an aide, and one of the police rushed through to the broadcasting room, killing another soldier and convinving the local hired help to activate the equipment.

- General broadcast -
"Attention citizens of the magistracy and of the free world, our peaceful land has been invaded and seized by imperialist soldiers of Veragon. They have come to conquer our country and rape our land for its resources, we refused their request to drill our oil and now they have seized the capital and outlying areas. I, Magistrate Thomas Obezkan, personnaly request that any freedom loving nation come to our aid and liberate out people before it is to late!"

OOC-I may wish to join in this. Is this the sign up thread? This would be my first war RP.

OOC: The link at the top is to the sign up/OOC thread. Feel free to start posting.

"Goddamnit! This was supposed to be simple, f---cking neobarbs have to go and throw everything into the shitter!" Brigadier General Harris raved as he heard the broadcast and got the report concerning the four dead soldiers. "Have the remains repatriated ASAP and put all flags on base at half mast, send word to the ministry and defence headquarters, I am authorizing full deployment of my brigade as outline in the contingency briefs. Tac lifters will start dropping infantry and engineers at the abandoned airstrip immediately."

"Yes sir, I'll get right on it" the general's aide, Corporal Kowalski replied.

*VMB Veras*

The central airbase of the Veragon military was alive with activity, as 5 mechanized brigade group was in full mobilization. The country's handful of tactical airlifters were loading up infantry and support personnel while barges and rented out civilian ships were loaded with vehicles and their small navy escort prepared to embark for Lordis to reinforce the companies there. The estimated arrival time would be noontime the next day for all the troops to be unloaded and establishing base.

The operational plan was to shore up and fortify the capital, moved a regiment to secure the oil field, and establish and maintain control of the airstrip and radar installation, which would be repaired and linked to a set of air defence batteries. Air force fighters were starting to head out to fly sovereignty patrols over the landmass already.

Giovanni D'Angelo, Prime Minister of Italy read on the situation. ''It seems war has broken out again.'' he said, reading the news in his office. Giovanni D'Angelo held a meeting with his Minister of Defense, Felix Garibaldi (may change). ''It is decided. We shall move troops there, to defend our nation.'' Giovanni said, authorizing Felix to move some troops to the area.

General Ferdinand De Angelis (may also change) was the head of the Italian armies. He landed several armies on the land and claimed those lands his armies held as ''Italian Lordis''.

The plan was to establish Italy on Lordis or something like that.

Giovanni waited for news of Ferdinand in Lordis, hoping things would turn out well.

OOC-Are we allowed to claim parts of Lordis or annex parts? Just curious as I am new to all this.

OOC: The purpose of this conflict is to decide who ends with control of Lordis, so as it stands right now I've staked my claim on it and have a small presence with more on the way. Please state the amount of troops your landing, and be sure to keep it realistic. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

OOC-Thanks for the info. I guess I'll send about 100-500'000 troops and perhaps more later. This is my first war RP. Could you help me throughout this RP?

OOC: I'll be glad to help, first off though, seriously knock back your troop levels lol. You have 5 million people, so we'll use that a basis for this RP. For me, I use 1.5% of my population in the military, 1% in the regular force, 0.5% reserves. For you, using that model, you would have about 50,000 regular force members in the army, navy, and air force. Now, being such a small country, your air force and navy will be limited to frigates and small and only a small number of patrol and combat craft, some training aircraft, and possibly a couple of tactical transports. For this, send in a couple of regiments, say 4 or 5 thousand troops. I'm using a brigade of about 6,000 but I have an advantage in that it is close by my nation, and I have a more extensive military that can support such a force. Keep in mind, the Canadian deployment in afghanistan is about 2,200 troops, yet it ties up almost 10,000 in total taking into account logistical and administrative support, pre-deployment training, and the recuperation period following the deployment.

OOC-Thanks for your info. Should I edit my post or just continue on with us keeping my armies rolled back? I can spare some troops but Italy's plan is ''Peace first, war last.'' Shall we continue, perhaps with Veragon's armies interacting with mine or something?

The small but powerful militaristic nation of the Valens hailed the nation with these words over a several dozen gigahertz radio broadcast so all could hear.

"This is the Armed Republic of Valens Res Publica. After spotting your small almost completely uninhabited island with our powerful KH-12 series spy satellites as well as GPS mappers and coupled with careful radio network listening we have overheard that this area is rich with natural and raw resources and would like a peaceful though total surrender of this land to us. We will give thought to the idea of 10% of future sales to you but at the moment all we have on mind is that small land-mass of yours. If we do not get a response within the next 24 hours we will be taking the island in a hostile manner though means which do not concern you."

OOC: Keep the original, just use scaled back armies. As for interaction, the key draw of Lordis is its oil field, under my control. You could steer your troops to assault it and try to dig in there, or head for another key area (airstrip, Lordisia). Given that a number of other countries are coming in, you could also try to negotiate an agreement with me to work together. Choice is yours. You could just as easily head for the fishing adn rural settlements, build some local support and wait for others to come, fight, weaken themselves, then rush in like a vulture to go pick over the dead and wipe out the weakened survivors.

Prime Minister Jeff Carson Read over the message and then slammed it on the table. "Why can't nation's leave each other alone dammit! Espiceally when that nation was told to leave but then invaded over oil!" Minister of Foriegn affairs Richard Saben sat there as he watched Jeff in anger. "Um Prime Minister? what are we going to do?" Jeff turned and looked at Richard straight in the eye. "Get the 4th E.N.F (Expetinoray Naval Force) ready. Get them sailing now! Also get in contact with any nation's that want what we want." "yes sir!"

Message to Italy:
The Republic of Ustia would like to work with you on this campaign to free Lordis from Veragon. We hope that you accept and wish to be working with you soon.

From:
Minister of Foreign Affairs Richard Saben

Message to Ustia
''Italy wishes to stay neutral but we will consider your offer of an alliance against Veragon in Lordis.''

OOC: Its getting late so I gotta run, I maybe be on later tonight, or at the latest tomorrow morning before school.

*Airstrip*

The C-130 came in the practiced and professional manner of the Veragon military, making good use of the rough field landing abilities of the hercules to touch down on the abandoned, and somewhat overgrown, airstrip. Even before the propellers stopped spinning, the first infantry were storming out, sweeping their weapons around and establishing a security cordon. Over the next six hours a number of other craft would make many more sorties, until a full mechanized regiment with artillery support and a tasking of engineers were landed and establishing the foundation for the air defence battery and defensive fortifications.

*Oil Fields*

The open plains and light forests under which Lordis' oil wealth lay was being overrun. Light amoured vehicles rolled in, only a small group, as two utility choppers fitted with gun and rocket pods provided air support. The paths to the oil field and the region itself was ill suited to vehicle travel, and it had taken some six hours and a lot of backracking for the LAVs to arrive and drop off their cargo of infantry. The other choppers would keep up constant supply runs and slowly drop off more infantry while the engineers worked to clear a path from Lordisia to the oil field, a long and labourous task that would take days at the earliest, and more likely a full week.

*Lordisia*

The cargoships started to arrive, dropping off the forward elements of five brigade as the new warships started taking up a defensive position and the submarine and a corvette kitted out for minelaying started laying down varying kinds of mines and sonar buoys. In the city, checkpoints were established and running firefights had erupted between police and Veragonian troops. The magistrate had been killed earlier on, as a full platoon of infantry stormed his hideout where he had fled to following the broadcast. On the outskirts, infantry platoons with help from support personnel were recceing the area, digging trenches, and laying down mines and razor wire.

OOC: If a map could be made on paint or something that would be great.

As Genreal Gunner McCrieger was briefing El Presidente over their current skirmish around Caraj, a call came in over the red line. After a couple uh-huhs from El Presidente, he slammed the reciever and quickly briefed McCgriger, the Commander of the Joint Forces. "It seems another imperialistic nation has fouled the name for us all again! Hours ago, Veragon forces began the slaughter of an autocratic magistrate on the small and remote island of Lordis. The reason being that the government of Lordis would not allow drilling in its newly discovered feilds of oil. The proud nation of Utsia has come to the defence of the Lordisians, and I feel we shall join them in this undertaking."
"Your thought is my order, Presidente" pipped McCgrieger. "I shall prepare the Iron Monkey Fleet to ensure our strong presence on and around Lordis. The 1st amphibious assault team shall be included in this fleet to ensure the supply of neede staples to the suffering people of Lordis. Our sole spy sattelite shall be programed to take pictures of Neragon troop movements at once [map!!!]."

OOC: Troop and ship numbers to come, again map is essential here.

They were given a day. No responses to thier hail was made and so hostile take over began. It was 12:01 and Military forces began to mobilize. The entire population of the Valens went to work as every single member of the population was forced into Military service if they were over the age of 16 and under 80 as long as they were Physically and Mentally capable/stable.

The single C5 Galaxy was filled with the 115th Airbourne div. The elite, of the best of the best. They were verterans in marksmanship with any rifle and or pistol. Especially the standard issue G6 Assault Rifle. Though about 15 minutes before a single C-130 Spectre took off with it's full load being. 4 XM-135 Miniguns with 1000 rounds for each gun; 2 on each side, Two M61 20mm Vulcan cannons with 3,000 rounds, one L60 40mm Bofors cannonwith 256 rounds, one M102 105mm howitzer with 100 rounds. 16 AGM-114 Hellfire missiles this was to clean out any heavy artillery and or armored resitance opposing the paratroopers. Of course it was to do all of this from standoff distances from AA. Meanwhile at 11:00 PST as that was the standard time used by VRP a single LCAC (Landing Craft, Air Cushion) left loaded with 16 Elite Guards and a single Mammoth tank fully crewed. with G7 Assault Rifles; almost the same as the G6 except for it's longer range and more recoil and the use of 6.8 SPC. These men were using the non-standard issue Electronic Warfare Scope, minus the Infra-Red as the AC-130 Spectre would be providing that and the KH-12 series spy satellites above.

// The LCAC //

Cruised along the waters. The driver saying "15 more minutes!"

Stealthily it would seep past any passive or active radar and even if spotted the Mammoth tank could open fire with it's 40mm grenade launcher and XM-134 minigun at full clock which was 6000 RPM or 100 RPS; though would limit it to 30 seconds of shooting before the barrels melted out. Or use one of the 8 Javelin missiles it could fire to destroy any Frigate or Corvette which happened to unfortunetly spot the LCAC. While the LCAC it's self was well armed with 4 Browning 30mm Mk.2's; Maritime variant. Which would rape through the armor of any go fast or armored transport as well as ship or aircraft spotted.

The men muttered amoungst them selves kneeled at the rails surveying the landscape with thier scopes. The telescopic lenses increased to 20x from 6x; and would engage any enemies left un-killed by the AC-130 Spectre or by the Mk.2 Mammoth tank if it hadn't been unloaded. Along with them was a two heavy support infantrymen sporting AT4's and suplus of ammunition for them.

From Prime Minister Jeff Carson:
We accept your offer of alliance and bring you in with open arms. We must desicuss are battle plan and put it together very carefully as it seems that Vergon has turned the captiol into a huge fortress and sat pictures show that reforcements were reactily sent to the island. Welcome to the coalition.

OOC: have to go. See you guys tomorrow. School you know.

Telegraph to Veragon:

While your tactics concern us, the Republic of Upper Weston feels it is in the best interests of the people of this region that the potential oil reserves of Lordis remain secure. To that end our Prime Minister has authorized me to offer military assistance in your efforts to secure the island. In exchange we request that we are allowed a 40% share in any oil reserves found on Lordis.

We await your reply.

Jeffery Tolwyn
Foreign Minister
Republic of Upper Weston

OOC: Posted up the map in the first post. Valens, what kind of javelins are those that the CLAC is carrying?

To: Upper Weston
From: The office of the President
Subject: Lordis Oil
Message:
Your offer is accepted on the condition you provide 40% of the capital to develop the oil. If you wish to have a share, you must pay an equal share. If you accept, our fighters will stand down and allow you to utilize the airstrip and deepwater port.

*Airstrip*

A team of technicians and engineers were working around the clock to get the radar installation working. It had required three seperate sorties to get the specialized parts, and they had to cannbalize one of the Veras arrays to get the need parts on time.

The work had been worth it however, now three seperate missile batteries were being set up and air defence guns were being erected behind sandbags to lay down heavy AA fire at low flying targets that travelled below the radar floor. To augment this, a lance of LAV-MMEVs, the anti-air version of the LAV-3 packing eight ADATS missiles had been deployed. Two more lances were deployed at the capital, Lordisia, and another lance had been sent out to defend the oil fields.

About 1500 troops had established themselves at the airstrip, and the engineers were busy working on the runway hoping to reinforce it, clear it of growth, and extend it to allow fighters to take off and land. For the time being two squadrons of fighters were maintaining air sovereignty patrols over the island and in the waters between Veragon and Lordis.

*Oil fields*

The engineers were still busy attempting to clear a path to the oil field, but had made good progress, two more days and it would be complete. In the meantime, utility choppers continued to drop off supplies and troops and razor wire, small minefields, and heavily reinforced trenches had been established. The troops, having received reports of incoming forces from the air patrols, were starting to send out clearance patrols to keep an eye for enemy forces.

One such patrol was moving along the eastern shore, a large distance away from the oil field, and they had been out for days, being resupplied by chopper. The eight man section, fully cammed and bombed up readied their weapons and set out. They emerged from the treeline and scanned the waterline with binoculars.

"Sergeant! Incoming!" Master Corporal Matthias called out, passing the binoculars to his section commander.

"Back in the forest, LMGs prepare to lay down covering fire!"

*In the air*

Captain O'Malley, callsign Fury, guided his superhornet through the air as he scanned the skies with his radar, searching for targets. It had been fairly uneventful, until a target blipped on his screen.

"Squadron, we have incoming, form up and prepare to engage. Saint, activate the EW suite. Dante, Uller, spread out and let the EW blanket our signatures, with any luck, it'll cover us until we're in missile range," Fury ordered, receiving a chorus of 'yes sirs' in response. Saint, whose F-18 was mounting a pair of specialized Electronic Warfare pods instead of the medium ranged missiles activated his payload and the four fighters spread out to reduce their collective radar signature, relying on ECM mask them until they closed in more and could unleash their missile payloads.

*Overlord Reichter walks in room*

Overlord Reichter: Sir, we have an interesting message. It's from Lordis. Here's the letter prepared by the comm center guys.

Administrator Dread: Hmm....A message from Lordis? Ahhh, they've been invaded. Prepare some transports and load them up with soldiers. We're going to pay Lordis a little visit.

Overlord Reichter: Aye aye, sir.

*9000 soldiers load up into various transports and gunships*

(-Telegram to Ustia-)

Hello, This is Administrator Dread with the Federation of Gizmous.

We seek an alliance, and we have sent several gunships, transports, and ships to the Island of Lordis. We seek to topple the Veragonian presence. We are well landing into the east side of Lordis. Rumor has it there's an oil field, and we must pry it from Veragonian hands. In 1 day, we'll be at the fishing village near the oil field.

It was raining at Kemper Airbase, but that was nothing new.

Col. Andrew S. Hayden III stood on the tarmac and watched the rest of his task force board their transports. 8 C-130s and 4 C-17s sat loaded with the Upper Weston task force. The 2nd battalion of the 2 Airmobile Regiment was boarding as was H Company, 3rd Battalion/3 Mechanized regiment.All told nearly 1,000 troops were preapring to deploy.

"We're ready sir," one his staff officers said.

"Excellent," he replied, "let's move."

THe planes lifted skyward, bound for the Lordis airfield.

As a fishing tressel was traveling across the vast expances of the open sea, the captian caught the impressive sight of the Monkey Fights Iron Monkey Fleet. He noted it was rather large - being the main fleet of MF - and contained just under 20 ships.

2 Cruiser
2 Battleships
4 Destroyers
2 Frigetes
2 Amphibious Assualt ships (Wasp Class)
2 mine ships
5 Patrol Boats

There seemed to be two commercial cargo ships following the fleet, a tanker and a regular one.

He also noted they were headed towards the small stop-off island of Lordis, his current residence. What trouble could be brewing back at home thought the captian.

OOC: Make the scale on the map smaller, perhaps a 10 instead of 100, because right now the island is the size of most of our countries and the town is 100 km wide!

Repley to Gizmous:
We accept your alliance. Welcome to the coalition. To make your landing easier I will conduct a bombing campaign of the airstrip, AA instalitions and other various targets.

Over the sea:
several B-2 bomber's protected by F-22 Raptors proceed to there targets. With there stand off attack missiles the bombers could hit there targets without even being close to the island or the enemy's radar. B-52's launched decoy missiles from the southwest of the island. the missiles looked like B-52's on the radar. The decoys were to distract the enemy from the actually bombers. the B-2's got in range with there stand off missiles. There target was the airfield. They targeted the hangers, ammuniton dumps, The AA systems there, Control tower (if you have one), a radar tower that seems to be under construction and the gasoline tanks. The B-2's opened there bomb bays and launched the missiles. they flew towards there targets with incredible speed as the B-2's and F-22's headed home. The satelilate observde the base to see the bomb damage. The missiles hit there targets with incredible accersorie. All of the targets exploded in a huge fireball. The airbase was now a huge fire full of death and ruins.

Ustian fleet:
The 4th E.N.F continued there sail to the island of Lordis. Admiral Jack Arnold was in command of the fleet. Onboard the R.U.S Petoria champion class fleet carrier he felt like a god controlling this massive fleet. The plan was to meet up with the iron monkey fleet on the way. Jack continued to sail so they could reach the meeting point.

4th E.N.F

2 champion class fleet carriers
2 advance class guided-missle cruiser's
2 aquila class guided-missile cruiser's
3 Erschoff class guided-missile destroyer's
5 Pioneer class Mine countermeasure ship's

// The C5 Galaxy //

The men in HALO suites within readied them selves as the green light lit up. The men within checked each others equipment to make sure there would be no Mal-Functions and so that they were mentally ready. They patted each other on the shoulder to signal. Inside the C5 were 30 Elite soldiers; all with G6 Assault rifles. Though these with only NV, and the telescopic lenses changed out fo 20x lenses; the targeting computer would take care of the rest. These super light weapons were in thier packs with SOC-V-3000 vests.

4 Men in this group were equipped with Heavy Anti-Armor weapons; 2 of them carrying AT4 launch platforms with 16 extra Javelin, and 16 Air-to-Air Stinger (ATAS) Block II missiles. This would fend off any air-craft which would pose a threat and armor as well.

Seconds remained as the orange light then turned to red as they piled out of the aircraft at 30,000 feet. They moved in HAHO movement; 2 teams.

TEAM 1 would secure the mountain which would overlook the air-field and secure it from the high-groud.

TEAM2 would move in on the Oil fields and entrench them selves taking 2 of the heavy Anti-Aircraft, and Anti-Armor men with them to fend off any vehicular of aircraft.

// The AC-130 Spectre/Spooky //

This aircraft moved from it's position above the island instead of exterminating any of the already intrenched enemies to the inbound feet so said command. The AC-130 steeply turned around as the E-3 Sentry (AWACS) dispatched as the Anti-Meritime vehicle operation was underway. It hovered above the meritime fleet at 30,000 feet well out of range for SAMS and RIM AA missiles.

The Spooky then only 30 seconds away at 2,000 feet said; breaking the radio silence "Requesting commensing of operation tungsten rod." the AWACS above responded with "Permission granted. Give'em hell!"

The Spooky's FCO, or Fire Control Officer took aim at the brige of the Battleship; which in a matter of seconds would render it useless as the 105mm Howitzer, and 40mm cannon's took aim at the Bridge, Radio Area, and FCS systems.

And so the 105mm Howitzer let out the first large shot at the brige raping it away from the ship rendering it un-steerable meanwhile the 40mm firing DUAP or (Depleted Uranium Tipped Armor Peircing steel core rounds.) opened fire at nearly 2 rounds a second. First Radio and AEGIS control office; these were the targers and after riddling that area with bullets. The plane would strafe the gun to the next BB. And so the first attack run began which would cripple the first Battleship beyond use.

// The LCAC & LSD-49 Harpers Ferry //

The LCAC unloaded the 16 Rangers and the Mk.2 Mammoth tank which had 2 missile launchers both loaded with Javelin Missiles ready to engage any armor with either it's 130mm smoothbore gun, or 1 of it's 8 missiles.

Meanwhile as the Mammoth let out a low Roar and un-loaded it's self from the LCAC unto firm ground and started to prowl at a slow 4 MPH towards it's meeting area at the Landing strip to secure it; the 16 rangers ran off the LCAC with thier guns at eye level scanning the mountain range for enemies while the 2 AA, and Anti-Armor rangers scooted off waiting for the CO to give them a target. All of them running after the Mammoth tank to jump onto the top of the tank to ride it to the securing point.

Meanwhile the LCAC then withdrew it's self back towards the small LSD-49 Harpers Ferry only a mile off-shore. Which upon it was the VRP variant of the F-35 JSF, made entirely of Titanium-Fullerenes and Alumina-Oxide. This super powerful, super light armor. Makes for the ability to care up to 2.5x more munitions and 4 more hard points. It was currently loaded with JDAMS and AIM-120x Slammers to take on any Fighter/Bomber/Intercepter threat to the Airfield or any other part of the island. As it had the radar cross-section of seagull. Could use VTOL take off capabilities and has a max speed of Mach 6; it was the perfect Interceptor/Bomber for the current job.

( You read my last post didn't you? If you did then good because when your troops reach the airfield its going to be one massive fireball.)

OOC: And next time, use the OOC thread... KKz?

That would be a form of God-Moding called Miss Cleoing, 'tard.

When my troops get there. In charecter; they will notice; and then hold the island perimiter. Meanwhile AWACS just started jamming and using it's own burn-through to supply the use of RADAR for allies to use. Meaning nobody can use RADAR except me.

I am about to destroy the Iron Monkey fleet with a single plane; and in a few seconds or next post. Two planes being my F-35 JSF loaded to the brim with JDAM's to take down the rest of the ships left un-raped by the Spectre/Spooky gun-ship. Meanwhile Meritime Re-enforcements will be arriving to take out the remaining feet of ships and because you just destroyed the Air-Strip I will have complete control of the Island for the time being. As more re-enfocement's through C5 galaxy arrive. Though with more Armor and heavy Anti-Armor peronelle.

"Alright what will be are targets tomorrow?" asked a high ranking airforce general. Airforce chief of staff Ronald petroll pointed at the various AA defense weapons placed across the island on the map. "What else will we target sir?" Ronald said "will also target the ships stationed at Lordiasn. When the 4th E.N.F gets close enough naval figthers will target the ships with there harpoon missiles and take out as many as possible. More targets will be selected as the campaign continues gentlemen alright?" All of the generals saluted and said "yes sir!" They then walked out of the war room leaving Ronald alone.

OOC: whoops sorry about that. I can understand taking out the fleet but taking over the island with like 45 men and a tank yeah right. Yes i know you'll be sending in renforcements but Vergon has a huge military force on the island so I don't know how you'd be able to renforce and hold them off with 45 men and a tank no matter how powerful or advanced.

OOC: I have no idea how you detected my single LSD-49 Harpers Ferry Amphibious Assault Ship. Especially since your RADAR is impossible to use; but I only have one ship. The LSD-49 Harper; Meritime vehicles will be there in no time to bring re-enforcements and flank the Iron-Monkey fleet. [/OOC]

Another C5, this time filled with Rangers instead of elite paratroopers. Was filled with 60 soldiers. 30 on each side; they waited and the C5 approched the island at 10,000 feet. A much more suiteable jump height. People checked eachother checking for equipment malfunctions and raising moral with each-other. They then waited for the jump light to turn Green. Though once it did; they all started piling out. As they did the opened thier chutes early and guided them selves this time to the perimiter of the Island to commandeer AA installations and this time take advantage of the use of space based detection arrays and attack the stealth fighters before they could attack the AA.

One more single C5 was inbound; this one to help the inland attack with the first batch of 30 Elite rangers. Though this one still had 5 more minutes of flying inbound before it could drop the troops.

Meanwhile the VRP fleet closed in. (Specs to be posted when I decide to. Most likely my next post.)

OOC (OUT OF CHARCTER.) This means that I am not talking in the game. I have no idea where your force is I'm just saying that your tactics seem a little far fetch and impossible. You have such a small force that a small force that is well armed and trained could take you out. I think your god moding.

OOC: My military consists of 5 Million. Every single member of the population above 16, under 80, and mentally as well as physically capable forced to serve thier military. My country resembles that of Sparta. From birth children are educated with a normal education though when they become mentally mature enough they are trained for war. Being marksmanship; long-distance running, enduring torture etc.. etc.. Think a modern Sparta...

OCC: Your nation only has a population of 7 million. So your saying that over half of your population is in the military, there all super soldiers even though no matter how tough they are bullets alwas render flesh, you have extremely advanced technology and can some how get and make this stuff with a civilan population of 2 million. That is Bull Shit and god moding no matter how you slice it.

They're just highly trained, and where are you getting this idea that they can't be wounded in battle?

There are different sections of the Military.. Yeah I know OMG

One of them would be production. Of course the Civvie population does construction but 90% of contruction is done by the military in private sectors. Which is then sold to different branches of the Military. So lets say 1 of the 2 million civvie population is building stuff. That's already enough to finish a Battleship in a day. Now Lets say 1 Million + 2.5 Million from the Military are doing production. In one day of working, I will have surplus for years.

OCC: I'm just saying no matter how well trained or desciplined they can all die just as easy as the next guy. I'm also wondering how you can get this stuff with your defense budget.

OCC: I'm just saying no matter how well trained or desciplined they can all die just as easy as the next guy.

In times of war we borrow from the Spirituality Budget. [/OOC]

The next C5 made the next Infantry drop; and now these nearly 200 soldiers would easily be able to over-run the current holders of the island as the wipe-out would soon begin... Men poured out and let out thier chutes early to guide them selves to re-enforce Elite TEAM 1, and 2.

Meanwhile the Next LCAC arrived with another Mk.1 Mammoth tank; though with no infantry to help it and as it was unloaded; it cruised away to meet the first Mk.1 at 40 MPH the armor and infantry would flank the current holders of the Island in one hard and swift Blitz Kreig. Though of course thier presence was still not known and not until every single soldier was in-place would thier presence be known.

Meanwhile,

2 Doppleganger Class Battleships cruised at a steady speed of 30 knots to the Island. Upon them thier 380mm guns were ready to shoot the target which first came into 42 mile range and use thier special made anti-ship rounds.

OCC: Your defense budget is only 2,424,416,659.52 Even if you add spirituallay your only geting an increase of 1,904,898,803.91. How the hell can you get technology like that with a defense budget like yours. Plus your primary funding is going towards law and order. With the 1 million and other people from the military buliding ships and what not. Then whos going to run your nation?, how will make your food or power your electricty or be police officers and protect the streets from criminals. There is not enough of you to do this. You need to have engineers and police officers and construction workers to do the jobs to make your country live. There are only 1 million of you left to do the civilan jobs. THAT IS NOT ENOUGH. Face the facts you can't do this, it is not possible.

OOC for the OOC thread boys, your clogging up the action (and you can see my little comment:p )

"Gods of olympus..."

"Incoming!"

"Gods help us!"

Major Tobias, commander of the small force at the oil fields, shuddered as he looked up into the distance saw the distant explosions of the airbase. Other troops had gathered around to listen and were looking in shock and worry as they're brothers in the distance were massacred. The major looked around and knew it wouldn't be to long before the enemy came hunting for them.

"Ready all weapons, double time it on those fortifications and cam up everything. We hold the position and let the bastards come to us, and when they do, we'll get 'em back. Hooah?" the major said.

"HOOAH!" came the unanimous reply of the troops as they returned to camming up their trenches and reinforcing the vehicle bunkers.

Camo nets were laid down and trench covers laid down to protect against shrapnel for the infantry. The armour moved off into the fortifited bunkers created by the engineering vehicles for them and the whole force dug in to prepare for the coming onslaught, whether from land or the air.

*Airbase*

The airbase was a flaming wreck, air defence had taken down several of large missiles but the runway and buildings were in ruin. Most of the vehicles were gone, as was the C-130 on the runway. The trenches hadn't been nearly enough to defend against the aeriel onslaught and over a thousand soldiers were now dead.

The survivors, some five hundred in total, reformed. Now that the airbase was useless and would require heavy repair to get the runway up and running, it was strategically useless. A Colonel who had been out inspecting the perimeter took charge and they started the slow march south to the capital.

*Somewhere over the east coast of Lordis*

*sound of gunships approaching*

As soon as the gunships arrived at the village, 300 transports landed all over the East Coast of Lordis. 9000 soldiers came out of the transports wielding ED-32 Standard Issue Rifles and MX-600 MGs and *MAU-MK2 mortars. They all went to villages nearby and evicted the residents from their homes to establish a base camp. Soon, 10 transports came to deliver ammo, and medical supplies, and fuel for the gunships. The soldiers helped themselves to the market's food, and also house refridgerators. Then, another 10 transports delivered food, and other survival supplies. After that, the soldiers had effectively established basecamp in 4 villages. In-between the 3 rural villages and the fishing village, a citizenry detainment camp was established. Detainees were deported to other countries, and the soldiers there said they could come back when the Veragonian presence was minimal.

On board the lead C-17 COl. Hayden looked at recon pictures of the destroyed airfield.

He cursed loudly and then turned to his XO. "Turn the planes around, we're not dropping into that."

They had to reconsider their plans.

Telegram to Veragon:

We regret to inform you that we have been forced to cancel the deployment of our forces due to the inability of your troops to maintain control of the airfield. Upper Weston no longer desires military involovment at this time.

Lt. Gen. Brian Harris
Commander, Upper Weston Expeditionary Field HQ


Telegream to all combatants:

Upper Weston has withdrawn its in bound troops from combat at this time, however we reserve to right to monitor out interests. In this regard we intend to occupy the nearby island of Tolvin. We have no hostile intent at this, but ANY attempt to interfere with operations there will be met with decisive and deadly force.

Enjoy your war.

Jeffery Tolwyn
Minister of Foreign Affairs
Republic of Upper Weston

Col. Hayden stood 3 men back from the jump door of thew C-17 and realxed in the buffeting wind. Shortly after turning back from Lordis thwey had received orders to jump in and secure the barren island of Tolvin. Once there Hayden planned to fortify the island and wait for further orders. Upper Weston had deciding against fighting for the oil on Lordis, but their were other interests in this region to look after.

He tensed as the light turned green. The jumpmaster bellowed "Go!" Soon nearly 1,000 of Upper Weson's finest were free falling to the deserted isle. There might be some excitement yet.

Message to Upper Weston:
What is the island of Tolvin like? Does anybody live there our is it completly uninhabitated? If it is we have no problem of you having that island.
from: Ustian government

The 4th E.N.F arrived in the eastern part of lordis. Admiral John observed the landing of Gazmo forces. It was a net and will organized invasion. The fleet changed from invasion to off shore bombaredment. the Admiral contacted the airforce wich was conducting an air campaign against the Vergon forces on the island for targets that there cruise missiles could attack. Airforce chief of staff answered the call. He said "We will attack similatsly against different targets on the island. Will hit the AA and naval implacements at the capital while you hit the trenches and other fortifcations at the oil field. The attack will begin at first dark. Get your men ready." The admiral and chief hung up. John then prepared his navy for the attack that would soon begin.

*Air patrol*

The three four craft flights of F-18 fighters had gathered together after the lead patrol had spotted the inbound transports all along the east coast. They didn't have an accurate figure of how many were inbound, but it was alot. They'd had headed back to the mainland Veragon and re-armed for the strike role and rolled back the EW pods as they thundered towards the coastline.

"Okay pilots, let's go over this one more time. The enemy's holed up in a series of villages along the eastern coastline. Our job is to go in, and hit these locations with a mix of cannon, rockets, and napalm bombs. You have your preassigned targets, so once you're in range, drop your ordnance and pull on out. Any air defence takes immediate priority, after that, cobras will roll on in and keep their heads down while 2 squadron comes in and we re-arm. We figure these must be the same guys that hit the airfield, so let's get a little pay back shall we?" captain O'Malley ordered to his squadron.

"Hooah!" came the chorus of replies.

The fighters thundered in, dropping low out of the cloud cover at the first village. They each unleashed heavy fire from rocket pods sending hundreds of rockets in a spreading arc impacting all across the village before the first four fighters flew in low and hard.

"Artemis, huntress of the heavens, make our fire straight and true..." the short prayer was muttered as four napalm bombs were dropped. The eight other fighters followed the massive inferno by laying heavy cannon fire at the structures and vehicles as they presented themselves.

"Mission accomplished, pull back and get ready to hit the second village!" O'Malley ordered.

As the fighters burned away at top speeds a company of cobra gunships thundered low over the ground preparing to finish off the survivors.

*Oil field*

At the oil field, with news of the incoming troops from the east, recce dets were sent out with attached artillery spotters as the howitzer batteries prepared for a massive bombardment of incoming troops. A pair of MLRS batteries remained hidden, ready to provide counter battery fire against enemy missiles.

The roadway the engineers had been working on was completed, and reinforcements poured in with extra supplies.

As Admiral G. Brooks looked out over the vast ocean, he couldn't help but thinking how damn sweet his navy was looking these days. Anywasys, back to business. The fleet being at most a day out, Brooks wanted to solidify plans with the coalition.

-----------------------
Telegram to Ustia and Gizmous (SECRET)

We were thinking it would be most strategic for the Iron Monkey Fleet and the 4th E.N.F to meet up north of Lordis, about a mile off shore. Gizmous, we realize your situaion is dire at this hour on the east, and we hope we can help you. Our forces (MF and Ustia) would land on the north shore, and cut south on the east side of the central mountain. The mountain would block the ships from the view of The major port city. Our troops who drive south would hopefully be able to cut off the path of reninforcements of the Veragonian army from Lordisia to the oil feilds and Gizmous' location.

If this sounds suitable, or not, please respond over encrypted messaging.

Admiral G. Brooks
----------------------

As this telegram was being sent, Brooks noticed Black plums from over the island, an ominous sign. He called over to the lead Wasp class ship, telling them to get a couple harriers to do a high altitude recon over the island.

Though slow now, Brooks knew there was much to come in the next days.

"General quarters is sound! I repeat General quarters! All hands main your battlestations!" Jack yelled this over the enter comm as all the ships readed for any possible attack. "sir we got a squadron of bandits on radar. Including attack choppers. They seem to be attacking the villages that Gizomus forces captured." Jack sat there and then said "launch carrier jets to entersept the attackers and take down as many as possible." "yes sir!"
A few minutes later the Admiral watched as F/A 35 talons and F-35 JSF's took off into the sky. 30 aircraft from the Petoria took off and 20 for back up took off from the Turner. It was a massive force but it was neccesary.
It would be geting dark soon and the battle to come we be hard fought.

Airforce squadron:
"alright guys were coming on the targets prepare for some good old fashion dog fighting. I want the F/A 35 talons to attack the fighters. The JSF's will hit the attack choppers and the fighter/bombers. Lets make this clean and simple. AWACs give me a target. "This is AWACS a squadron of F/A 18's are coming on the second village from the north." "Roger AWACS inbound on the target. The Talons went up into the sky really high. Then as the F/A 18's closed they did an angled dive behind them at a fast speed to get a quick and easy kill. They didn't see the Talons because of there extreme RAM metrial that was more stleathy than the F-22 raptor. They closed and locked on to there target. The dog fight begin.

---secret telegram---
This plan is a good idea. The 4th E.N.F is currently in the eastern part of Lordis. Once fighters have returned and are cruise missile strike is finished we will move to the north. Are marines will be very glad about this. They've been iching to get off the boat and on to the beach.

From:Admiral Jack Arnold

The fighter squadron was driving south, fast and hard as they attempted to torch the second village in much the same manner as the first one. The EW pods were working at full boar as with the onboard systems, but electronics can only do so much.

The first three fighters didn't stand a chance as the lock alarms screamed as aircraft began detonating seemingly out of nowhere. Fighters broke off, screams filled the comms, and the advanced fighters of the enemy continued their massacre.

"Incoming!"

"I can't shake- AAAGH!"

"Gods help us!"

"Missile coming up!"

"Why the hell isn't the EW working?!" one of the pilots screamed.

"It's the only reason we're still alive!" O'Malley roared as he and the other fighters unleashed a storm of countmeasures and banked around hard and fast. They're radars were picking up only a couple of sensor ghosts, and definately not something they could lock on to and fire at.

Two more fighters exploded, as several missiles detonated against the countermeasures or were thrown off by the EW pods. The seven remaining craft came to face the direction of the enemy as the countermeasures fell away and missiles picked off another three aircraft with more missiles inbound.

"Fire your cannons it's the only thing we have! Ghost, Eagle, take your fighters and head to the village, drop what ordnance you can then get out of here!" O'Malley ordered as he dispatched the two EW pod equipped aircraft, which were managing to throw off the inbound missiles, and he alongside the only surviving fighter laid down long streams of cannon fire in the direction of their unseen enemy.

The other craft exploded and a missile streaked towards O'Malley's as he pulled the ejector.

*EW Fighters*

The two remaining F-18s had managed to throw off enemy missiles with their EW pods. They were moving in the second village on afterburners and dropped down, laying down cannon fire, the remaining rockets and the two napalm bombs they had on them before pulling west and burning low and hard for Veragon. They sent a message out to the Cobras which were inbound on the other village to turn around and head back. With any luck, they would still be flying low enough to avoid radar detection.

The captain said over the radio "Good shooting men! hell of a surprise attack!" the radio chatter filled the airways as men cheered over there victory. Some men had become aces on there first combat sortie an amazing fit all thanks to hard top gun training and the latested technology for aircraft. Then richard call sign bat said "sir two still got through and hit the village with napalm bombs." the comms got silent as the burning village came in view. the F-35's were killing any super cobras laging behind the main force. They killed a good amount of them before they returned to there airspace. the captain repleyd to bat "Do you see them on radar Bat?" Bat frustarted said "No sir they must be flying at low altiude or there gone already." "damn it I wanted to get all of those bastards. All right squadron lets return to base." "yes sir!"

On board the R.U.S Petoria the Admiral and the rest of the fleet prepared for the missile strike. Jack looked at the satelliate pictures of the targets. There were several trenches and fortifcations around the oil field that they were suppose to hit. A recently added target was a group of artillery pieces that were moved up possibly to attack Gizmous forces. Of course we were also going to hit the AA defenses so further strikes can be conducted by the naval aircraft. "alright sir targets are locked and ready to fire in three, two , one cruise missiles away!" rumbling was heard as the cruisers, destroyers, and frigates launched there missiles at there targets. Jack loved looking out the window and seeing the smoke from the missiles come up. It was a powerful sight.

south of Lordisa:
At the same time B-2's were locking on to there naval targets, AA targets, and the bases set up around lordisa. The bomb bays opened and the stand off attack missiles launched towards there targets at an amazing speed. B-52's did a "just in case" bombing off all the targets that were missed from the last strike on the airfield. The bomb bay doors opened as JDAM bombs fell from the B-52's and on to there targets. A trumdeous explosion was seen as the bombs impacted and speyed a huge fireball from the impact. Some of the B-52's were geared with the Stand off missiles and they targeted further trenches and fortifcations around the oil field along with the supply road that was recently finished. The missiles flew away into the night going after there targets.

Once the bombing was complete the escorts and bombers returned home from another successful mission

*Somewhere over the east coast of Lordis*

*sound of gunships approaching*

As soon as the gunships arrived at the village, 300 transports landed all over the East Coast of Lordis. 9000 soldiers came out of the transports wielding ED-32 Standard Issue Rifles and MX-600 MGs and *MAU-MK2 mortars. They all went to villages nearby and evicted the residents from their homes to establish a base camp. Soon, 10 transports came to deliver ammo, and medical supplies, and fuel for the gunships. The soldiers helped themselves to the market's food, and also house refridgerators. Then, another 10 transports delivered food, and other survival supplies. After that, the soldiers had effectively established basecamp in 4 villages. In-between the 3 rural villages and the fishing village, a citizenry detainment camp was established. Detainees were deported to other countries, and the soldiers there said they could come back when the Veragonian presence was minimal.

These men would soon come under fire from fatally accurate Semi, Burst, and or Fully-Automatic rifle fire. Raping soldiers as they emptied from the Maritime Troop carriers.

Men taking full advantage of thier electronic, Night-Vision scopes buffetted the un-loading soldiers with lead. "Nothing but head and heart shots!" was what the C.O of TEAM 1 yelled to his soldiers. Under command of 60 Veteran Rangers, and 30 Elite Troopers with a surplus of ammunition. These men had control of the mountain top which overlooked the Air-strip and the entire western coast. It reminded one of Elite's of the stories told to him by his Grand-Father at Iwo Jima. He him self fired off 40 shots directly aimed at Command'ing Officer's heads. Which would leave the rest of the unloading soldiers as head-less chickens. Literally as they scrambled for cover only to be meeting a hot chucnk of lead to the head. While these men were being pummeled by ammunition from VRP soldiers F-18's from an enemy country would pummel survivors. 'The enemy of my enemy is my friend' was the inspiration for each man. Despite being out numbered; raised morale and kept them fighting firociously.

// Meanwhile //

Col. Hayden stood 3 men back from the jump door of thew C-17 and realxed in the buffeting wind. Shortly after turning back from Lordis thwey had received orders to jump in and secure the barren island of Tolvin. Once there Hayden planned to fortify the island and wait for further orders. Upper Weston had deciding against fighting for the oil on Lordis, but their were other interests in this region to look after.

He tensed as the light turned green. The jumpmaster bellowed "Go!" Soon nearly 1,000 of Upper Weson's finest were free falling to the deserted isle. There might be some excitement yet.

// Little did he know... //

That under them heavy fire would come from nearly 100 highly trained veteran Rangers and Elite soldiers. With these men from TEAM 2 engaging the Paratroopers taking full use of thier scopes meaning not a single one. Or a single bullet only would mis. While conserving all of thier surplus of ammunition. Nearly 5 Clips for each soldier, or 360 4.7x33 bullets they could take down every single one of the paratrooping soldiers before they hit the ground. Despite that; even if they had missed the soldier. Bullets which peirced though these men would continue traveling ripping and raping Parachutes. So for those whom did, and or would manage to survive which chances of that happening were 20/1000 would crash to the ground from the loss of a parachute due to bullets mising them and instead hitting and killing thier chute making the Statistic a possible, 5/1000 possible survivors.

// Unfortunetly //

Airforce squadron:
"alright guys were coming on the targets prepare for some good old fashion dog fighting. I want the F/A 35 talons to attack the fighters. The JSF's will hit the attack choppers and the fighter/bombers. Lets make this clean and simple. AWACs give me a target. "This is AWACS a squadron of F/A 18's are coming on the second village from the north." "Roger AWACS inbound on the target. The Talons went up into the sky really high.

They didn't see the Talons because of there extreme RAM metrial that was more stleathy than the F-22 raptor. They closed and locked on to there target. The dog fight begin.


This sucked for them as the AWAC's above from VRP was already overhead and began jamming making Fire and Forget weapons which took use of RADAR useless. Such as the Hydra and Hellfire series missiles as well as early SIDEWINDER series missiles. Despite that it would reduce the use of missile severely it would mean for a true dog-fight. Unless VRP aircraft stepped in and wiped out the fighters whom were busy with each other. Though at the moment VRP AWACS armed with AIM-120x SLAMMERS of thier own could take down any threat which opposed them as the jammed the skies and coud stay up there for several hours before needing a re-fuel. In which a In-Flight tankers would be there to meet it and keep it operational and in-flight 24/7.

// The Mammoth Tank strike. //

Meanwhile as the Mammoth Tanks cruised the North Beaches and had turned to the Western beaches. Would soon be there to re-enforce the area; as well as perform a Blitz Kreig up the center of the Island killing any Non-VRP forces.

// Kill two birds with one stone //

At the same time B-2's were locking on to there naval targets, AA targets, and the bases set up around lordisa. The bomb bays opened and the stand off attack missiles launched towards there targets at an amazing speed. B-52's did a "just in case" bombing off all the targets that were missed from the last strike on the airfield. The bomb bay doors opened as JDAM bombs fell from the B-52's and on to there targets. A trumdeous explosion was seen as the bombs impacted and speyed a huge fireball from the impact. Some of the B-52's were geared with the Stand off missiles and they targeted further trenches and fortifcations around the oil field along with the supply road that was recently finished. The missiles flew away into the night going after there targets.


A single VRP variant F-35 JSF lifted off. With the use of a Spy Satellite in Geo-Syncronis orbit directly over the island provided the F-35 of a laser designation/RADAR and Infrared painting of the target. Meaning of the RADAR on the X-35 didn't pick up it could use the Satelleites. It moved to intercept these bombers and rape them as they had no AA capabilites. Though this F-35 had upon it nothing but AIM-120x SLAMMERS, exactly 12 of them. 4 PENGUIN Anti-Ship missiles were onboard as well. Two on each side; and this plane after using it's VTOL capabilites. Used it's Afterburner and sped after these planes to not only intercept them but obliterate them.

After about 2 Minutes of flying it was closing in on the B-2 Spirits and B-52 which after locking on all of them at the same time with it's own personal software it fired them all at the same time at different targets. Also Chaff or Flares wouldn't be able to diflect them as they had a ability which stored the position of the engine as well as it's size on the war head's RAM. Which would render the use of such useless. Despite that they could be used like ARCHER missiles and directed though HUD upon the pilots helmet. Meaning all of them had a AIM-120x on their ass and no way to dodge it.

OCC: Holy crap do we have to argue over how impossible this stuff is again. How can a single fighter take out and entire strike force. B-52's and B-2 bombers. Ohh yeah I forgot I have escort fighters along with them as will. F-22's and F/A 35 talons. You going to single handly take them out too? Also how can you know exactly were his troops land and you can some how kill all of them before they land with assault rifles and what not. Bullets don't go in a straight line. The probablity of you hiting a parachuter is the same as what you said about them surviving the drop. You know what how about we doe this

EVERYONE COMPLETELY IGNORE VALENS RES PUBLICIA
NO BETTER YET BAN HIM FROM THIS THREAD

Bullets don't go in a straight line. - No shit, A 6x computerized sight; easily interchangeable in magnifaction of the lenses and can be mounted upon the RAIL system. Is to make this rifle one of the most firesom on the battlefield. Using dual core AMD 3.6 Gigahertz chipset at full clock coupled with TTFT's to minimize size; heat, possible damage, and weight to make a targeting computer 10x + faster than any other targeting computer. IR Sights are included/built in as well as NV. After aquiring size, threat, and range of a target a threat assessment is made as well as a cursor over thier bodies which compensates for distance; speed, height, range, windage, bullet-bore etc, etc all you do is have to put your sights over the cursor and pull the trigger.. Our 5k scope only given to Veterans and Elites. Lolz I win...

Ohh yeah I forgot I have escort fighters along with them as will. F-22's and F/A 35 talons

You can't just pull them out of your ass like that. Learn to RP; thats Spawn Hacking. If you had escorts you should have put it in the post.

Jesus this sight is just riddled with idi--- like you now isn't it?

Also do you know how much a single F-22 is?

22 BILLION DOLLARS! I thought this was a small army war.. I am only using 200 soldiers, 2 tanks, an Offshore/OffRadar Amphibious Assault Support Ship, and an E3 AWACS Sentry; and I'm already pissing people off... Like you; because I am; and could whupp them IC.

YOUR THE ANNOYING ONE! LEARN TO RP!

OOC: Valens - you're wrong. First, I thought you were just stubborn, ignorant, and refusing to accept reality. Now, you're not only that, but a complete idiot. NO, an F-22 does NOT cost 22 billion dollars Mr. I have a full satellite network, laser defence systems and a rifle that God pulled out of his ass and my entire population also happens to be my military.

Please refrain from posting again. Ustia, I'm going to request again that you refrain from using B-2s, quite frankly, thats just not fair lol. (if you really want, you can)

IC:

The missile barrage came in fast and almost overwhelmed them. Thankfully, they had had the opportunity to prepare, AA defences and man-portable Javelin missiles opened up at the incoming cruise missiles, managing to take several down. Several artillery pieces were destroyed, but camo and decoys managed to save a number of them. Most of the air defence vehicles were destroyed, as the emissions from their sensing suites served to give away their position. A number of the LAVs and infantry were taken down as well, alongside the inbound supply convoy.

All in all however, despite the loss of some hundred fifty personnel and even greater equipment losses, the defences still held fairly strong. The decoy trenches, fortified positions, and the large number of patrolling personnel managed to reduce losses, though the wounded were mounting at over two hundred.

From: Veragon Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Subject: Cease-Fire
Message:
It has become clear that the president's policies in regards to Lordis are both unfair and now unattainable. We admit, as of yet unofficialy, that we acted in poor regard and mistreated the citizens of the Magistracy. Our operation has been a blatant act of imperial aggression, and we now face mounting losses on the island. As such, we are requesting a cease fire with your forces in order to lay down the groundwork for a full fledged peace treaty between our nations and an eventual withdrawal of Veragon military personnel from the region. For the time being, our forces have been ordered to cease all offensive operations and remain at their positions. They are ordered to defend themselves against attack, but will not make any aggresive moves against your forces. We request you do the same.

All in all however, despite the loss of some hundred fifty personnel and even greater equipment losses, the defences still held fairly strong. The decoy trenches, fortified positions, and the large number of patrolling personnel managed to reduce losses, though the wounded were mounting at over two hundred.

Message:
It has become clear that the president's policies in regards to Lordis are both unfair and now unattainable. We admit, as of yet unofficialy, that we acted in poor regard and mistreated the citizens of the Magistracy. Our operation has been a blatant act of imperial aggression, and we now face mounting losses on the island. As such, we are requesting a cease fire with your forces in order to lay down the groundwork for a full fledged peace treaty between our nations and an eventual withdrawal of Veragon military personnel from the region. For the time being, our forces have been ordered to cease all offensive operations and remain at their positions. They are ordered to defend themselves against attack, but will not make any aggresive moves against your forces. We request you do the same.OOC: http://originmedia.mgnetwork.com/breaking/f22raptor/
33 Billion ass... 300+ Million a jet after Development.

I don't have a netword array, I have a single spy satellite in Geo-Syncronis orbit over your island; NO laser defence system besides THEL which is RETARDEDLY cheap. Learn to READ I said this in the OOC thread as well as every other problem you have with me proved WRONG... You are the one who not only needs to gain some Maturity but learn to read....

Wow, nice to see you edited your post after saying it was 22 billion for a single F-22. Guess you're wrong genius. As for the actual cost of the F-22, that's that little thing called 'research' and 'development' a little concept I've been trying to drill into your head. Ustia is a nation with over 80 million people, over a number of years, its quite possible to have developed the F-22. In all honesty, I don't even know if he did. I figured he bought it off someone else, which is what many nations do.

OOC: Uh, Gizmous, unless a more powerful nation gave you those, or you purchased them at GREAT expense you are not going to have hydrogen bombs. Please remove that part and posting losses would be nice.

Overlord Lay: God damn it, we've lost over 2000 soldiers....and 3000 wounded!

Soldier: Sir, we have the Tactical and Attack Dept. on the line.

Overlord Lay: Hmm, yes. Hello? Ok. Yeah. *click*

Soldier: Sir?

Overlord Lay: I want 10 transports ready to fly, and the Engineering Corps is gonna meet us east of Village A-2(middle village right west of the fishing village)

Soldier: Um, what's the Engineering Corps doing there?

Overlord Lay: We're gonna get a drill, and strike the black, FLAMMABLE gold. And, see if you can't recruit any soldiers from that Citizen Internment Camp.

Soldier: Yes sir, We'll offer weapons, and training.

Overlord Lay: We'll also have some fighters and gunships(8 fighters, 4 gunships)supporting your division. I'm going to send out a message.

(-Telegram to Ustia and Monkey Fights-)

We are commencing a a fire storm attack against Veragon.

Our plan is: Drill a hole until we get oil. 120 soldiers will be deployed to defend the engineers.
We need any defense we can get, in the form of: Air support; Infantry Support.
Our message is this: If they don't withdraw immediately, they will have no oil at all. We'll start the attack phase in the afternoon. We need to regroup.



(-Telegram to Veragon-)

This is our ultimatum. Withdraw immediately, and you won't have to lose all those soldiers for nothing.
Either way, it's a lose-lose situation.




(OOC: My crime is a problem, and we look to the criminals to build weapons, aircraft, and naval ships for almost nothing and, Ustia, use B-52s instead of B-2s)

OCC:I read over what you all said. Vergon thank you for what you did. He was ruining the thread. Also about the F-22's, yeah I bought those from Military armament company Inc and DMG military industries. Thats were I bought most of my military equipment. In regards to the B-2's I will not use them even though I have more than enough money for them. The only reason why is so its a little more fair. I understand considering I think I'm the big dog in this fight.

OOC: My half hour post just got deleted, so this is brief.

Brooks looked up from the map, "You understand the plan for the landing?"

All the officers nodded.

"Very well, get to it"

The idea was to land 400 men off Sea Knights, escorted by SuperCobras on a part of the beach which would have been pre bombarded by the battleships. Then the LCACs would come in with more men, 4 Humvees, and two M1A3s.

All before nightfall.

Telegram to the coalition,

Gizmous, DO NOT PROCEED, we don't want that oil destroyed, it wouldn't help anyone.

Since Veragon has offered a surrender, I think we should take it and get him off the island. We would proceed with the landings, and be able to get the choppers into the hotspots without getting shot at.

Please respond

Veragon and Upper Weston,

As of now, I accept your surrender and the others should soon as well. I demand the complete removal of all troops ASAP. We will be landing choppers in at the oild feilds, Lordisias, and the old arifeild. If a shot is fired at any of our troops, all our tomahawks are aimed at strategic points (you guys) and will be launched as well as a contiueal bombardment form my battleships.

Please notify me if you accept these terms, and an official suurender will be written up.

If accepted, our choppers will land immediatly in the above areas.

Ustian fleet:
Jack looked as the naval fighters returned from there partily successful attack. The F/A 35 Talons and F-35's landed on the flight deck. Some of the pilots went through the traditionally Ace sermiony as they become veteran pilots. Most of them however looked sad that they weren't able to protect the village. The fleet then moved to the north of the island were monkey fights planed us to be. (It was you right? I don't remember.) Before they moved to the north however. The mercer class Amph Assault ships sent a marine force of 6,000 to were Gizmous forces were. The LCACS full of men and vehicles landed on the beach and started to establish a base of operations.

OCC: Vergon I know what your doing. I saw you buy 1,000 barrels of bubonic plague from Pudite Military Arms Storefront. I was wondering if it would be cheating If I knew on the thread. Good idea, very smart.

OOC: Damn, I was hoping no one would notice that. Just some prior warning, I also procured a small tactical nuke thats been loaded onto a transport being used to start the withdrawal of my forces. ICly my president-for-life is a bit psychotic and its his brother who's been responsible for every non-bad thing in the government. To my credit, the plague's not for you, it was intended to be unleashed on the civilians to cause hell for you after we bug out, and the nuke was being considered for ruining the oil field in case negotiations tanked and you pushed forward. As for the B-2s, I'm not saying you don't have them, and if you really want you can still use them, its just a might unfair considering I'm a quarter of your size and outnumbered 3-1 nationwise.

OCC: So its ok I know? Will then in that case.

As far as I know none of the allies intead on using the oil field. I know monkey fights isen't but I'm not sure about Gizmous, You'll have to ask him. Right now were a little on edge with him considering he threatened to destroy the oil field. In regards to your biogical warfare you don't have to use it, we don't want the oil. My nation has plenty of it for the time being. Please take the peacefull rought. No more people have to die. As for my nation we just want peace to return to the island and have lordis govern themselves and have a nation of there own. We basically want the same things as monkey fights. My nation has known peace all its life up until this war. Thats why we want it over as peaceful and quick as possible.

Marine landing force:
the LCAC's unloaded the troops and various vehicles onto the beach. They ammenditly set up a command post and reorganized the men. Sargeant Jack who was recently released from the hospital after rebels ambushed his convoy in Urkdak (see military coup in peoples freedom federals call for help) was transfered to the Lordis campaign. He missed Thomas and the rest of the squad and hoped they were ok. Jack walked over to the commander of the E.F (expditornery force) Captain perry Li. Jack said to him "will sir what are are orders?" Perry turned his head and said "I don't know. Guess its up to the Gizmous forces." Then a high ranking Gizmo officer came over to meet with them.

the fleet:
They arrived in the northern sea. Even though they were under a cease fire Admiral Jack wanted to be safe. Just in case talks broke down his was ordered to do a full scale invasion of the north and then drive down to cut off the men at the oil field. Jack didn't think this would happen but you never know.

OCC: I know you never said that I didn't have them but even so I wont use them Unless talks break down. I'm not threatening you I'm just saying.

We would like to know where the peace talks will be held. Do you want it to be in Lordisia?,or the destroyed airstrip? please let us know so we can begin the peace talks and settle this issue.

from:Ustian government

As night was falling, the convoy of MF armor and marines was pressing on throught the jungle. The procession was headed by 10 M1A3s, which cleared brush for the a multitude of humvees and Bradleys, numbering in the hundreds. All the while, air cover was provided from around the clock harrier patrols. The mission was clear, get to the air feild and secure it, or what was left. Hopefully by then the peace will be all worked out and the envoy could proceed to Lordisia.

As the armor was splitting the middle of the island, the Iron Monkey fleet was traveling down the west coast of the island to dock off of Lordisia. Ustia's ships were commanding the northern beach head, and once the MF fleet got to the south, the whole island would be blocked from anymore attacks, though none were expected.

Brooks had still not recieved a reply to the surrender terms of Veragon. He was getting worried. Earlier that day, the MF intelligence had found a message from Veragon, asking to purchase a tact nuke and large quantities of the black plauge. Brooks hoped this didn't turn dirty, for everyone's sake.

Admiral Jack was handed a note saying that Iron Monkey forces were heading for the airfield. He said "well when they get their there's not going to be very much left. We bombed that place Two days in a row. I don't think the airstrip is even useable anymore. Well its there choose, we can't stop them."

marine E.F:
The Gizmous officer smilied and said "Hello welcome to the island of Lordis!" Perry responded "Yeah Yeah, enough with the small talk where do you want are men to deploy?" He said "ahh! yes well we would like for to be at the northern line just west of the fairly large village. Does that suit you." Perry said "yes its fine. Its close to are fleet so we wont have a problem with resuppling." the officer responded "good when can you leave?" "right now." Perry turned from the officer and yelled to the men "alright men were moving out! everyone mount up, Lets go!" All of the men scrambled around loading up all the gear and dismantling the tents they set up. After a few minutes the force was ready to go. M1-A2's, Strikers, Humvuu's and other vehicles formed a fairly large convoy. perry grabed the radio and said "alright move out!" the convoy came to life as they rumbled toward the north. Jack and his squad were hutled up inside a striker sleeping. they knew when they get there they probably weren't going to get very much.

Overlord Lay: Hmm, scrap Inferno. Tell Engineering to pave an runway.

Aide: Yes sir.

Overlord Lay: We're going to stop all offensive activities.


Message to Veragon: We accept your cease fire, and hope to establish peace terms.

Message to all members of the coalition: We've just learned that Veragon has procured biological and nuclear weaponry. I also have sent cease-fire terms to Veragon. In light of those..WMDs being procured, I've bought chemical weapons, along with AGMs, and also, we are scrapping demo plans for the oil. Today's a very important holiday, so we will be momentarily unavailable.

As soon as the engineering team was 20 Km from Lordis, they were told to go to the middle village and construct a runway. Then, a single transport arrived, carrying 11 elite soldiers, and a GIA(Gizmous Intelligence Agency)agent came out of the transport.

Overlord Lay: Hello.

Agent: Get to business.

Overlord Lay: I want you to go to Lordisia, and see if you can't....stir up a rebellion. I'll get some allied help later, but stir up that rebellion.

-Control of the destroyed airbase so that we can repatriate our forces' remains and reclaim as salvage the destroyed vehicles and equipment there.
-Permanent control over the airfield to act as a forward airbase in defence of Veragon, and we will also develop it into a full fledged civilian airport for use by the Lordisians
-Withdrawal of all foreign military forces from Lordis once the situation has been resolved
-In exchange, we will make a formal apology for our actions and a $200,000,000 grant for the reconstruction and economic development of Lordis

IC:

*Lordisia*

The small town was in the full swing of martial law as the night came. Every roadway and entrance into the town was held by military roadblocks, with additional check points scattered throughout the city. Helicopters maintained a constant patrol overhead, sweeping the landscape with recce packages, nightvision and thermal sights.

Clearance patrols of four were constantly sent out on a random ordered, patrolling through the bushes and scattering of trees that surrounded the town.

Inside the town itself, the former police headquarters was a smouldering ruin, shelled into oblivion by mobile gun systems and 25mm cannon fire. Lordis' small arsenal of a hundred kalashnivoks and submachine guns issued to the police were either destroyed or in the hands of the occupying forces.

Any civilians seen on the street were immediately detained, to be released in the morning was the curfew was over. Those who did not posses Lordisian papers, were loaded onto a transport to be shipped back to Veragon.

*Pier 1*

The hulking mass of the freighter pulled in slowly, and the dockhands and crew secured with practiced proficiency. The loading ramps were lowered and the first handful of troops to depart Lordis, as a show of good faith, were being loaded on. Supplies, consisting of food, ammunition, and artillery were offloaded.

One package, a small crate, garnered special attention by the local workers until they were shooed off by a group of heavily armed special forces operators.

The operators escorted the package to a pair of G-Wagons where they mounted up and with a civilian engineer accompanying them, sped off towards the oil field.

Your terms over all seem acceptable. I'm a little efy about you holding the airfield. We can work this out once delegates from are nations arrive. We are glad that you are taking the peaceful rought.

From:Ustian goverment

---secret---
When Ustia heard about the Biolgical weapons and the nukes they starting having the sat's and UAV's looking at every inch of the island for anything strange or out of the norm. One of them spotted a pair of G wagon's that was heading for the oil field. They figured it was nothing but they had to follow anything that went through that road.

Marine E.F:
After a few hours the convoy reached there area. They were suppose to guard the northern line from any possible attack. They unloaded and got to work.

*Oil Field*

The two G-wagons arrived at the oil field where the Veragonian troops maintained their position. The defences had been further built up, with engineers creating earthen barriers to the front, to deny the enemy cover when they charged at the trenches and provide the infantry with superior cover. New trenches were being dug, and a large hole was being dug deep into the Earth, with the drilling equipment left behind by the initial expeditionary team to dig almost right to the oil deposit.

The special forces operators disembarked from their vehicles, and after handing out several crates of ammunition and some soft drinks as a treat to the troops they hauled their special crate to the specially dug hole. The civilian engineer guided them as they opened it to reveal what appeared to be some sort of bomb, but no one knew what it was exactly. The engineer attached some sort of remote detonator to the weapon and the weapon was lowered into the hole.

*Lordisia, office of the magisrate*

The former headquarters for the Magistracy, really nothing more than a town hall, had been turned into a veritable fortress to provide security for the comming peace talks. The amabassadorial team had already arrived via helicopter and were awaiting with the brigade commander to welcome the peace delegations.

The Ustian delegation arrived by naval Sh-60 Seahawk. Ambassdor Tim Smith was there along with Captain Chris Roberts, the representative of the Ustian navy and Lieutnant General Alexander Jones of the Ustian Marine Corp. Several bodyguards were with the delegation as will for there own protection. They landed close by the town hall and got out. The Seahawk lifted off into the sky and then disappeared. The delegation then walked to the entrance of the town hall. Many people were there to greet them.

---secret---
Inside the UIA (Ustian intelligence Agency) H.Q they saw what nobody wanted to see. A bomb being lowered into the ground. Agent petterson said "damn it that confirm's it. They've placed the nuke in the oil field. If they set that off its going to be a hell of a fireworks display! Jeff call the Prime Minister he needs to know about this." Jeff picked up the phone and called the Prime Minister. It rang twice and then he picked it up.

Inside Minister House:
jeff said "Minister this is UIA we have a confirmed placing of a nuke in the oil field. They have a remote trigger on it." The Prime Minister with fear overwhelming him said "what can we do?" "well sir we can only hope the peace talks go will. The Veragon's said they would only use it if talks broke down." the prime minister repleyed "Lets hope the peace talks are successful." "yes sir" They both hung up and the Prime minister lend back in his chair and said "god help us."

The convoy of Armor and troops were 15 minutes out from the airfield, and were expecting little resistance. The tanks and other armor was preparing for the worst though, since no deal had yet been signed [Veragon, report troop numbers at arifield].

As soon as two CH-53 Sea Stallion helicopters landed in Lordisia, 6 squads [10 each] of MF special detail marines jumped out to ensure the are was safe. The MF negotiation team quickly unloaded and made their way to the town hall. The leader, Otto, was mumbling "can't even provide damn transportation!" 2 squads stayed with the choppers while the rest escoretd the group of 7 negotiaters into the town hall. Before entering, Otto reminded all his men the terms thay wanted, "and no destruction of the oil, no CBNs, and freedom here, GOT THAT?!"

As the I ron Monkey fleet approached Lordisia, a telegram was sent out to Veragon

--------------------
Veragon,

Currently, the BB-01 Pounder and BB-03 Cannonade have there guns pointed at your digging operation at the oilfield. If you are serious about these peace talks, you will halt all operations there until further notice. Also, We shall be snding in ships to demine the port, do not fire upon them. As for your proposed peace, we cannot accept those terms.

- ACCEPTED, withdraw all your forces from oildfield and Lordisia

- REJECTED, MF will control the airfield, and allow you to organize your men, survey your damage, and scrap all your destroyed aromor, etc. Allowing you to control would not work.

- REJECTED, you cannot have permanent control. A hanger, yes, but the airfield belongs to Lordis.

- ACCEPTED, but perhaps we might maintain a small presence to ensure Lordis is not invaded again.

- ACCEPTED

- ADDED, Oil wells will be built by Veragon with the assistance of the coalition. Each country will recieve 10% of profits, and Lordis will receive 60%.

These are our terms.

Do not contiue with the digging, or your men shall perish.

El Presidente
MF

The Marine E.F quickly dug in along there line. Trenches were dug in a simple defense line. There were three lines of defense just incase the attack was heavy. There were fairly large gaps inbetween the lines. 50 Cals were placed in a trench every 5 or six yards. Mines were placed all along the front. Anti tank and anti personel mines. In every defense line gap there was a mine field along with barbed wire at the edge. The mine field was about a football fields length thick at the first line. Barbed wire was placed along the edge of the trenches for the full length of it. behind the lines a command post was created with radios and sat images along with other things. 105 and 155mm artillery pieces were set up to destroy any advance. For anti-air we had avengers set up all along the line and rear. Ever trench had to have a stinger missile launcher.

Jack and his squad was right at the first line right smack dab in the middle. They all sat there and just stared at the massive mine field. Steve said "You know I wonder if they really could get through this much defense?" jack responded "yeah they could, any defense line can be broken through its just some take longer then others." "yeah thats true." After a while steve and everybody where so bored they started fiedly with there weapons. Steve was fliping around his AT-4. Everyone was really bored.

OOC: These trenches and mine on the north shore?

OCC: No there up by the north line a little to the west of the big yellow dot village. I haven't landed any forces on the north shore but I will if necessary.

As soon as the Overlord heard about the nuke, he called for a full evacuation to the North and ordered the F-111s to strike the oil field if they continued digging.

Overlord Lay: I want Phosgene to be inserted immediately into the oil field. Save the missile, spray the surplus. I want that purchasing nut over here.

Purchasing Dept Manager: Yes sir?

Overlord Lay: *pulls out pistol*

Purchasing Dept Manager: Um, what are you doing?!

Overlord Lay: *shoots the manager in the head*

Overlord Lay: I'm sorry, your services are no longer required.

Then...

Message to the coalition: We are now dumping surplus Phosgene into the oil field. Tell your soldiers, if they are near the oil field, to at least put on a gas mask, as Phosgene can kill in high amounts. And, we're retreating to the north, as the danger of a nuke is near us. We are bringing F-111s, we appreciate it if anyone could spare an aircraft carrier to land them on. We are also transporting AGM-130s for use, 14 of them.

10 transports zoomed over the airfield, opening their cargo bays, as HAZMAT personnel pushed barrels of Phosgene over the oil field.

We beg of you not to escalte the situation. We are in the middle of peace talks and your actions are endangering the lives of all our troops. DO NOT PROCEED. Please consult the rest of the coalition before attempting any further actions.

How dare you try to exclate this war! Veragon wants peace! stop ammenditly or we will be forced to do something we do not want to do! Please why do you want to continue this war!

Ustian fleet:
Admiral jack was given orders to launch a squadron of F/A 35 talons to entersept the transports and stop them from using the BW's (biolgical weapons) Jack watched from the bridge as the fighters took off into the air to possibly safe this situation from geting out of hand once again. Captain Eric Paln who was the person that commanded the attack on the Veragon fighters and bombers was in command of this operation.

Marine E.F: the marines were orderd to fortify there flanks and turn there positions into a defense circle that faced the sea. 2,000 more marines were landed with more tanks and Anti air craft inplacements among other things turning the area into a fortress.

Island of Tolvin:

Hayden sat in the ELINT (electronic intellignce) shack and listened to the chatter from the Lordis. Upper Weston now had nearly 3,000 troops entrenched on the island. Two battalions of 2 Arirmobile were dug in around the kidney shaped island. The only beach suitable for any real amphib landing was Crowne Beach and Hayden had an entire company sitting behind prepared defenses and nearly 100 Claymore mines there. In addition a transport loaded with a battalion's worth of LAV-IIIs was sitting in the island's tiny port, there was need to unload here, but if they were needed on Lordi, it could deploy in less than 20 hours. Finally, the task force had established several batteries of SAMs and ASMs to guard the island. They were secure here.

The massive AQM-117 "Eavesdropper" systems were monitoring everything sai on Lordis, while most was encrypted, what they could read painted an interesting picture. There was an uneasy truth on the island, Veragon was plotting to blow up the oilfields, and Gizmous was preparing to destroy the fragile Coalition with its brash behavior.

"Pass this on to command," Hayden ordered.

"While you're doing that, tell Captain Stone and the engineers I want that airstrip ready for C-130s, by tonight."

Hayden had a feeling that this mess could get out hand in a hurry.

Telegram to all parties:

Upper Weston offers its services as a mediator in the continued conflict over Lordis. We would be more than willing to host emmisaries from all parties on our newly acquired military facility at Tolvin. We feel that a neutral location will best serve to defuse this situation and return peace and stability to our region.

OOC: There are no troops at the airfield, the survivors fled south following the bombing.

The special forces operators looked up into the sky as transports arrived, the MMEVs were firing off ADATS missiles to intercept them but some sort of bombs were already on there way down.

"F*** me blind..." the lead operator muttered as he removed the nuke's detonator and jammed down the trigger.

For a split second, time seemed to stop, then a massive roar and flash of light unleashed as a mushroom cloud rose to the sky and the nuke, buried just above the oil, completely tore apart the earth's crust above the oil igniting what was perhaps the largest oil fire in the world.

The entire western half of the island turned into a firestorm within five seconds annihalating villages, wildlife, and spreading flaming oil and radiation all across the island.

*Lordisia*

The morning sky turned brighter than the sun for an instant than the entire western horizon was filled with fire as flaming globs of oil landed throughout the city setting hundreds of structures on fire, killing civilians, and even causing some death and destruction among the Veragonian troops.

"Kill them!!" captain Macintyre ordered his infantry that were guarding the office of the magistrate and the peace talks as the hundred plus infanteers unleashed heavy automatic weapons fire on the small Ustian delegation.

Elsewhere in the city, several barrels of bubonic plague were being unleashed on the unsuspecting citizens as the soldiers donned their NBC suits and made a hasty retreat. Radiation medicine was being handed out and the outer checkpoints abandoned as the remaining troops headed straight for the docks.

Over 9000 troops had now been decimated in the war, and now it was time for the F-111 strike.

Administrator Dread: God be with you all.

Then, a mid-air flight began. A new strategy concocted by the guys at Tactical.
They had fitted the F-111s with AGM-130s, they were heading toward what was called, on the radio chatter: The VMB Veras. One broke off to strike that ship, and the others were heading towards Lordisia. The F-111 that was heading for the VMB Veras, launched its entire payload (4 missiles) And, it was under attack, and the F-111 pilot decided he was going kamikaze into the ship. Only, the F-111 would go down with the Veras. He ejected just as soon he was going to seemingly die. He yelled to the ship: "Ho-ho-ho, who's king now?!" and shot a few pistol rounds at the crew, who were scrambling to get off the ship.

Then, the two F-111s shot the entire payload at the city, but an F-111 failed due to intensive gunfire and crashed into a civvie building. The other, went kamikaze into the docks.

Hayden watched as the Geiger coutners in Ops spiked.

"What the hell?"

"Sir, intel reports Veragon had detonated a tactical nuclear device near the oilfields, we're getting reports of massive fires from one of our observation trawlers near the area."

"Damn fools," he muttered.

"Get on the horn and tell command, and activate Plan Husky."

Wthin an hour 12 F-15s and 3 Boeing 707s, modified as AWACS bids had arrive at the airfield. In addition a second transport with additional supplies and equipment to round out a mechanized battalion battle group arrived, along with the destroyer Hyperion.

Just as the armor envoy had finished taking the arifield, the nuclear cloud was seen to the east.

"Shit Shit SHIT!" screamed the commanding officer, Miller. "Everyone, put on your NBC suits and sit tight. I'll talk to Brooks to see what we do next."


At the same time, the negotiators were making a mad dash towards the choppers. All around them were their Marine escorts, which made them feel relatively safe. By the time they got to the choppers, the marines left to gaurd the choppers had them ready. Once everyone was aboard, the chopopers took to the sky and got the hell out of the island, back to the fleet. They had lost 6 men and 18 were injured in the firefight.


Once Brooks heard of the grave news, he called over to Miller. "I want your men to sit tight for now. We are sending in the medical staff to administer anibiotics and what not. Make sure the avenger Humvees are on full alert and spread your men out to avoid bombing damage. Also, try and get that field repaired."

These are grave times. My men will remain at the airfield. I recomed blowing the shit out of any Veragon position. Though casualties of civilians will be high, they already have the plauge. I have to attack subs monitoiring the port entrance, and they will blow any Veragon ship out of the water. Be warned, the toxics form Gizmous's brilliant plan are in the air, so have your men protected.

Your actions were brash and uncalled for. None of your men shall be leaving the island until further communication, understood?

OOC: I'm assuming since the nuke was a tact nike and small, only the east pert of the island was devastated, correct me if this is wrong.

2 transports flew into the middle of a village on the West Coast of Lordis, hauling a cargo truck, specially modified to hold a short range missile. Hazmat troops poured out, 24 in all. They were going to give a present to Veragon, direct attack at their capital. Then they brought out a wooden crate that said: "FRAGILE: BIOHAZARD" A soldier pryed it open, and it was a short-range missile with Phosgene in it. They loaded it onto the launcher, and waited for orders. They setup sandbags, and machine guns. More soldiers would come, but not anytime soon.


Message to Upper Weston and the Coalition: We are procuring nuclear weapons incase PLAN CHEMICAL STORM doesn't work. We will send troops into the lion's den later, to assassinate the president, and put his brother in place. We find that the president of Veragon's brother will be a perfect regime leader. We have attacked the VMB Veras, with 4 AGM-130 missiles, and an F-111 kamikaze attack.

Message to Veragon:

Your actions will pay off in mutually assured destruction. Only you will be destroyed.

ooc: Lordisia is still occupied by Veragon troops, it wasn't destroyed.

OOC: I'll change the location to some village on the west part of the isle.

OOC: VMB Veras stands for Veragon Military Base Veras, it is the premier base at the capital city, Veras, attacking it with three F-111s would be suicide. Also, as previously mentioned, theres a fighter squadron patrolling between Lordis and Veragon itself so an attack force would likely be intercepted. The eastern half of the island is more or less gone at this point, the sky is black with oil and that half of the island is a raging firestorm. The capital is now on fire, as the initial barrage of flaming oil started hundreds of fires and Veragonian troops have destroyed the small fire department, combined with the plague, its more or less in ruin. All Veragon positions have been abandoned and my troops are fleeing. Alpha-deltas are air defence btw.

IC:

"Run! Run! RUN!!!!" the captain screamed as a rifle round smacked into the wall beside his head. The locals, at least those who owned a variety of hunting weapons, were trying to take down as many Veragonian troops as possible. The captian raised his weapon, unleashing a long burst of automatic fire into a crowd of civilians as he tried to guide his troops to safety.

"Ares must be pleased," the captain's 2IC muttered as he came up beside his commander.

"How's the evac going?" the captain asked, firing off more rounds at any non-Veragonian he saw.

"Most of the support troops are in, arty and alpha-deltas have set up on the barges and are ready to cover our escape, we've seized the local boats to help out, but everything's going to be overcrowded," the warrant replied.

"Roger that, get the men and get going, I'll provide rear guard" the captain ordered as the infantry got up and charged for the docks.

We are abandoning Lordis, you may retain control of the island if you wish but it matters not, all life on it will be extinguished within a few days once the radiation has taken its toll.

OOC: Oh, I thought it was a carrier, or something naval.

Transports came to Lordisia, dropping XM8s, and RPG-7s to any rebels who needed them. The crates were fitted with parachutes, as the weapons could break, if not with parachutes. The agent sent to Lordisia had a brick of C-4 in his hand, and an Glock 17 in the other. There was an UMP-45 on his back, but it only had one clip. His mission: Aid the rebels in any way possible. And also, to set a beacon in a place, outdoors, that is suitable for a Gizmous landing. The plan was to clear Lordisia of Veragonian troops, bring in doctors, for radiation and bubonic plague screenings, treat the civilians, and rebuild Lordis, and, if they wish it, aid them with weapons and ammo and possibly, any surplus NBC weapons.

Telegram to the Coalition: We're now dropping weapons to the rebels in Lordisia. Armaments include XM8 assault rifles, and RPG-7 rocket propelled grenade launchers. We are now attacking Lordisia, we request any assistance we can get.

OOC: Gizmous, not all your troops have to be dead, you did start evacuating to the north so it makes sense a small number escaped the blast in armoured vehicles, though any exposed infantry will likely be dead in a couple of days if not treated with radiation meds. Also, you may want to abandon reconstruction plans, fallout will keep the area dead for a good while.

IC:

*Docks*
A group of transports came in, flying overhead of the doomed city and dropping cargo crates onto the city. The LAV-MMEVs had finished setting up on the barge and started locking on with their top of the line ADATS missiles, unleashing multiple missiles at the enemy transports.

The first cargoships, and some of the smaller local craft, now overburdened with troops, supplies, vehicles, and other miscellaneous equipment started leaving the docks.

*Lordisia proper*
Corporal Janus crouched behind the wall of a ruined townhouse as he laid down machine gun fire to protect his fleeing comrades. He called out to his assistant to dash across the street and grab more ammo, as the gun was starting to run dry.

His assistant got up and started dashing when a flurry of automatic bursts opened up, with apparently several rounds hitting him. He was knocked to the side and started trying to crawl when the fire concentrated on his slow moving form and he finally stopped moving.

As the blood started to pool the shock left Janus as he swept the area with his sight to see the shooter. A handful of civilians, apparently armed with some sort of automatic weapon, most likely from the boxes that had been dropped, were hiding in a building.

"51 alpha, this is 12 delta, we have tangos with automatics in a building a hundred meters to my front. My position is grid 1392 4569, request fire mission over," the corporal called.

"Roger that 12 delta, fire mission inbound, stay under cover, over" came the reply.

Within a few seconds, and after the corporal had bunched up beneath the wall, the low roar of incoming artillery reverberated through the burning, corpse littered street. There were three explosions in rapid succession, and when the corporal looked up, there was no longer a building, or anything alive within fifty meters of the former structure.

"All callsigns this is zero, evacuation is almost complete, abandon positions and return to the docks immediately over," the radio chattered.

The corporal stood up, and with one of his section mates from across the street, grabbed the body of his fire team partner and headed for the docks.

Tolvin:
Lt. Col. Preston Gaines stepped out of the chartered 747 of Upper Weston's national airline. He and most of his men would be staging here to meet up with their vehicles and equipment, currently steaming north with half the Upper Weston Navy as escorts (1 destroyer and 2 frigates). Once a suitable disembarkment point was loacted they would unload their equipment and fly in the troops to link up and begin operations.

Commander: Army of Upper Weston, Lordis Theater Expeditionary Group

"That's it, get the hell off that island" Brooks was telling Miller, who was holed up at the airfield. "Take the roads west and meet up with the fleet at the far western beach. We will land all our transport choppers at the field to evacuate all troops in that are not needed to drive the armor." "Roger" was the only responce.

Beneath the waters of the Lordisian port, Monkey Fight's two attack subs were firing torpedoes at any boat leaving the harbor. It was easy, since there was only one exit due to the minefields layed by Veragon earlier [report losses]. At the same time, the two battleships of the Iron Monkey fleet were unloding on the harbor, unleashing havoc on the fleeing boats.

OCC:damn you Gizmous, damn you!

Ustian fleet:
It was normal, nothing was happening. Admiral Jack was looking out the window when all of a sudden a huge bright light ingulfed the view. The ship rattled as the shock wave hit the fleet. Admiral looked away when the explosion hit. he was lucky he didn't go blind. When he looked back there was that fimarly mushroom cloud over the horzion. Everyone looked out the window. Jack said "Oh my god!" everyone was shocked at what they say. Then Jack came out of his transe and said "alright lets get it togther people. I want the marines to evacuate the island ammenditaly they'll die if they don't!"

Marine E.F:
Jack and everyone else was seting in a trench when the nuke went off. Everyone dove for cover and got on there radition gear as fast as they could. As soon as the light fanded orders were blarly all over the radios to evacuate the island. When jack heard that he thought "no really were going to evacuate, thats a no brainer." Everyone was yelling and screaming. The LCACs came in rather quickly to load up the vehicles and men. V-22 ospery's carred out the 105 and 155mm pieces that couldn't be loaded on the LCACs. Even though it was mass chaos all around the evac went rather smoothly. Jack and everybody else ran on to the LCAC and it quickly drove away. He looked back at the island as it go smaller and smaller. Then the fleet started to show up through the fog and strange weather that was starting to happen.

Message to upper weston:
We accept your alliance and are fleet well most likly be heading there as soon as possible.

Naval squadron:
The squadron was just about to make contact with the transports when out of nowhere a bright flash engulfed everything. The shock wave hit the squardon an screams suddenly overfload the radio.

"What the hell was that!"

"Damn it my plane is falling apart I'm going ....."

"ahh my eyes!"

"where all going to die!"

When the light faded Eric saw his entire squadron going down along with him. His glass screen was cracked and his left wing was in shambles. He was only geting forty percent out of his engine and he didn't know how long he could keep it in the air. He despratly called to see if anyone else survived "Giam 2 are you there! White 4 answer me damn it! anybody this is Cypher calling for anybody that survived the blast!" Then a weak single came over the radio. "yeah captain I'm here, my plane is basically finished. This is Bat over." "thank god you made bat! Do you think you can make it back to the carrier?" He sounded in pain but he responded "Yeah maybe, I don't really know but we can try." Eric responded "alright lets take this slow. lets go up as high as we can so just in case are engines give out we can glide as close to the carrier as possible." Bat said "roger captain" Out of the six man squadron only him and Bat were still alive and they were just barely hanging on.

I am deploying a nuclear sub near Lordis, if the invasion of Veragon does not go well. Both missiles are targeted toward Veragon, one somewhere in the countryside as a warning, and one in their capital.

The last of the land force was getting onto the Wasp class ships. The Battleships were still pounding the harbor while the subs were torpedoeing everything they saw. The fleet, when it was prepared, would sail to meet up with Upper Weston on their small island.

The GNS Dread was quite a bit away from Lordis, but missiles were in range. No orders had come in yet to nuke Veragon, but they said if the sub got attacked, they had to launch both the missiles at Veragon. A TV crew were on a small tugboat watching the sub, because they would get a lot of ratings, if they actually filmed the nuke up close. Then.... Orders came in to prepare for a missile launch. They weren't going to actually LAUNCH it, the captain thought.
It was directed at another missile battery, on the west coast of Lordis. Orders came in to launch a Phosgene missile at a major city, on the coast of Veragon.


Telegram to The Coalition:

We are now commencing Operation: Chemical Storm. There is an major city on the coast of Veragon, and we are going to fire off a Phosgene missile at that city. That city will be a city of the dead, soon enough. If you wish, you can land there. The Phosgene will linger for 3 days.

OCC: You guys realize that Gizmous started all this shit don't You? Yeah I know that veragon used there nuke but Gizmous is the reason for that! He was an idiot for trying to drop chemical weapons on the oil field! Because of him several of my men are dead and the entire island of Lordis is a waste land!

Message to Allies:
We disagree on attacking Veragon. They weren't responisble for the sudden break in peace. Veragon wouldn't of used the nuke if gizmous hadn't tried to use chemical weapons. Instead of punishing Veragon its Gizmous we should punish! Not militarly of course because to many men are already dead but war crimes or something yes!

Marine E.F:
Hazmat teams throughly cleaned us off and checked for any radiation that could of affected us. Once that was done we unloaded onto are various assault ships. Jack and his unit was assigned to the R.U.S Python Mercer class amph assault ship. Everyone in the unit was hunger so they all headed to the mess hall to get something to eat. On the way they felt as the ship started to move. The fleet was moving out.

Ustian fleet:
Just as the fleet started to move out for Tolin two smoking dots appeared over the horizon and on radar. A radio transmission came through "This captain Eric requesting permission to land. My plane is badly damaged along with Bats. The rest of the squadron was whipped out by the blast." Admiral Jack responded "This is the admiral permission granted don't die." "roger admiral were coming in now." Jack ordered emergency crew up to the flight deck incase they crash land. Bat came in first. The land crew guided him in. the plane was traling side ways when it was coming in. A few seconds before he landed he turned it for a great landing until the left wheel came off but luckly it stopped nice and easy. Eric had to wait while they got Bats plane out of the way. he started guiding it in. The left wing was shacking badly, he thought it might fly off on him. He was thinking "come on hold togther just for a little longer, come on baby." A few seconds before he landed the left flap came off and he went all over the place. The radio blarred "Bail out, Bail out!" it was to late the wheels hit the tar mate very hard and they reaped apart sending him sliding across the flight deck. He sled for a few seconds and then stoped like it was nothing. He thinked god that he made it.

Lordis

The Phosgene missile was ordered to strike Lordisia, killing all in it, as the Phosgene was modified to go through gasmasks. The messages sent to all parties were, in fact, threats. The plan of reconstruction of Lordis was only half-abandoned. It would be a military island, on the west coast. The east coast was destroyed, so anything could do anything there. It was a wasteland.

May the gods have mercy upon your souls.

Far from the war torn wasteland of Lordis, the nation of Pythogria opened the silos to its mighty nuclear arsenal. From the silos some fifty ballistic missiles emerged and streaked towards the nation of Gizmous where they would extinguish all life.

*Loridisia port, Monkey Fights submarine assault on fleeing ships*

The third merchantship was listing to the side as a result of incoming torpedos. The waters were choked with ships, and the ASW frigates were trying to make their way through the cargoships in order to combat the underwater threat. Ironically, the minefield that had been intended to protect the Veragon forces was now responsible for destroying them as the ships were stuck in a chokepoint with torpedos destroying every vessel attempting to escape.

Veragon submarines were surging ahead underwater, maneuvering around the sinking vessels, and firing off torpedos at the attackers.

We apologize for any losses you have suffered during the conflict of Lordis, but we now face a greater threat. Gizmous' actions are a threat to the whole world, and we have taken actions to ensure that it can no longer threaten humanity. We ask for an alliance so that our nations may work together to seek out and destroy all Gizmous forces in our area of operations as they will undoubtedly try to launch a massive suicide assault once their nation has been destroyed. Also, we will need to deploy NBC protected forces to examine Gizmous and ensure there are no survivors, we are assembling a task force, and have designated this mission as Operation Phobos, with air recce forces already enroute to their nation.

As Veragonian subs came into sonar range, the two MF attack subs turned hight tail and fled to the sftey of the fleet. A torpedoe from Veragon managed to hit the tower of one. This sub, able only to sink to the ocean floor, was able to secure the breach only to a fifth of the sub. Being a seawolf, it would be able to wait out the above hostilities, it had to, fo up to a month. The other sub made it safely back to the fleet.

OOC: Anyone think it credible that my ground based AMRAAM derviative SAMs could shoot down a nuclear tipped cruise missle? Gizmous implied he had ICBMs but with his population and military budget that's impossible, I really don't think he has the money for nukes at all personally.

Evacuations were underway to a new region, but it was unlikely anything could escape the blasts. So, at the evacuation road, people were given XM8s and RPG-7s and NBC suits and were told to take cover immediately in a cave, anything underground. Plan 0 was activated.

The missiles had just failed over Lordis, and were dropping.


Soldier: Holy........shit..........


A bright flash of light came over all of Lordis, and as soon as it disappeared, another flash of light came from Gizmous'es direction.


Gizmous

A feeling, hotter than the sun overcame all the people who didn't have suits on, and who weren't underground. The ones who did, and were underground, survived. The citizens, soldiers, and anybody, who was underground, were armed. Any invasion force would be fought by 6 million people, looking for vengeance. Their homes, their belongings, their sanity, gone in a flash of light. They knew who did it, but they wanted the government's blood. Because they were responsible.


Telegram to all parties besides Gizmous Govt.

We are now uprising against the oppressive powers of our government. As I type this letter, a new age has begun. Our government is not sane. Veragon, we request that you engage only our government. Us, the people are innocent. The government is the only one guilty of things like nuking islands, and things beyond your imagination. They are now down to 20,000 troops, so if you want to strike our old country, it's fine. We only request safe passage into a new region.


Evacuation Road


Gunfire and explosions were everywhere. The gov't had made a tactical error. Rebellion. With 6 million people versus 20,000, the odds were not good.

"Not again!" jack looked back and saw another nuke explode on the island. he thought "Jesus how much are they going to pound that island!" radar operater said "Shit sir pyhorgia is launching multpile nukes at Gizmous. Sir Look away!" everyone looked away just before more flashes ingulfed everything. Jack thought "thank god we got out of there!" After the blast The fleet continued toward tolin. A few hours later The island of Tolin came into view. Admiral Jack sent a message to Upper Weston. "This is the Ustian 4th E.N.F we have arrived. Is there any ports that my fleet can dock in?"

We sort of decline your alliance. Howevery we wont be enemys with you will be neutral. Right now I wish to regroup and forgot about the hell of Lordis. Maybe later I will change my mind but not now not after that.

OOC: Gizmous...cool RP idea, but you should knock down the number of civilians, your country was just glassed by fifty ICBMs with multiple 200 kiloton warheads, very little survives that, and nothing survives the subsequent radiation. Ground based SAMs might be able to take down incoming cruise missiles, but it depends on the individual system and it wouldn't be nearly as easy as shooting down an aircraft.

Message:
Given the massive radioactive fallout spreading across your lands, it is estimated that within the week nothing will be able to survive without radiation medicine and nuclear capable NBC suits. For this reason, we offer you one of our sparsely populated western provinces which will be made into a specialized protectorate for your people. We will send every ship and aircraft we can to bring your people to this province, and will assist in establishing a new nation and economy, as well as provide equipment, weapons, training, and logistical support for your military forces. This new Gizmous will be considered a Veragon Protectorate until you have re-established yourselves and proven yourselves able to rule and proven beyond a reasonable doubt that you will not turn the way of your former government.

*Waters near Lordis*

The Veragon fleet, despite the earlier problems with a submarine attack, had managed to flee the Lordisian coast. Looking back, they saw thick black smoke hanging over the entire island, the capital was aflame, but the entire western half was an oil fueled firestorm that continued to blot out the sun. Though they couldn't see it, the soldiers knew the radiation was spreading across the island, and that it would be unlikely anything could survive. It would take years for it to be considered habitable again.

As they headed back to nearby Veragon, they received new orders, drop off all personnel except a small security contingent, link up with the fleet, and head for Gizmous.

Gizmous restitensce we will help you in any way possible. I will send transports to Evac you out of old Gizmous and into the Veragon protectorate. Food and water will be provided to the refugees and you will be treated for any radiation inffection. Just tell me were a working airfield or close to working is and will fly to pick you up!

We are still awaiting word as to whether or not they will accept, but with the amount of radiation hanging over the country, they won't live long even if they defeat the government.

Gizmous

200,000 people were struggling to get to the coast, and several people died on the way... "Jesus christ, how much longer can we walk......I'm so hungry...." What was left of the Gizmous resistance in the towns were starving, and dehydrated. The 200,000 person march had ended on Shell Beach.


Message to Veragon:

We are at Shell Beach, the reason we couldn't respond immediately, was because of EMP. Do not land at anything besides Shell beach, as there are people hijacking any vessel, air or sea, all over the country.


Sea

"WHOOOHOO!!!!!!" Said one person hijacking a cruise ship. The passengers were thrown off by several people, picking up more people on the docks. Tugboats, and anything that could get the hell out of Gizmous were leaving the docks, and if none were there, you hijacked a speedboat, cruiseship, anything.


Message to all parties:

We would like any assistance we could get. What's left of the cabinet members have been...taken care of. Any stockpiles of chemicals have been disposed of, and all military personnel have either converted, or abandoned the army. We are sending radio messages and people are arriving at Shell Beach.

We will send some of are amph assault ships to Shell beach and use the naval helicopters to get you all out. Water, food and radition meds will be given out to all of the survivers as they are transported to the ships. All of men will be wearing radition suits and have injections of radition meds. Considering I was planing on useing an airport it will take some time for me to get there.

Shell beach

As Ustian transports landed at Shell beach, people ran to them and hastily asked for food and water and medicine. 175,000 people were left on Shell Beach before the Ustian transports came. 25,000 people were either mutated horribly(example: Chernobyl)or tumors had killed them. As air transports arrived too, people also came running to the helicopters and got on the helicopters.

Jack and his squad were assigned to the evac mission. V-22 ospreys and seahawks keep landing and taking off with people. Some of the Refugees hardly looked human. There was so many of them. Jack frustrated said in a muffled tone through the gas mask "were not going to be able to get everyone out theres to many of them." richard responded "but we can try!" "yeah we can." The squad walked around handing out food and water to the refugees. Doctors examined the wounded and injected radition meds into everyone. Overhead the massive transports flew over the sky and landed. Waves of refugees rushed into them. They quickly took off towards the Veragon province. crying and screams were everywhere.

*Gizmous*

At shell beach in gizmous, a veritable armada of small craft rushed to the beaches to retrieve refugees and bring them to the fleet. Dozens of helicopters also came, picking up hundreds of civilians. All across the flotilla, Veragonian infantry kept watch, ensuring no incidents occured and no violence erupted.

Across Gizmous, fleets of civilian ships were being hijacked and loaded down with refugees, corvettes and frigates were dispatched to link up with these vessels and guide them to the main fleet so they could make way to Veragon.

Medical teams moved screaned the Gizmous citizens, administering radiation meds to everyone and treating any sicknesses and injuries they could.

From:Minister of Foriegn Affairs Richard Saben

Trumphts blarred, people yelled and whistled. It was a hell of a home coming. As the fleet slowy came into the dock streamers flew into the air and everyone gave them a big welcome home. Ustian flags were everywhere along with the colors black,white, and red.

Once everyone had departed from the ships there was a massive parade through the streets of Petoria. The navy band played there tunes, streamers were everywhere, it was a great sight.

As the Ustian forces were becoming desperate, wondering how they were going to get everyone off the beach, two Wasp Class AA ships sailed over the horizon, flying the MF flag.
---------------Radio transmition to Shall Beach--------------
We are the 2nd strike AA fleet form MF. As soon as we get in range, we will be landing seahawks to assist in medical treatment and evacuations. We have room for 5,000 refugees. We also have the materials to construct an airstrip. Hopefully then we can get some C-17s for quicker evac.
MF
-----------------------------------------------------------

The MF ships sat off the horizon. You could just barilly see them through all the fog and god knows what else. Perry recieved the message of what the MF fleet was going to do. Everyone felt relieved that an airstrip would be constructed. They couldn't stand the horrow of the disfigured refugees. Though everyone could be dead by the time airfield finished. Choppers kept landing and loading up refugee's. Some of the suriviors were geting frustrated as the amount of people dead rised. Jack kept seeing doctors look at badly infected refugees and having them give that classic shack of the head symbolizing they weren't going to make it. When a doctor did that to a mans wife he stood up and grabed him. Jack and his squad quickly aimed at him waiting for him to do something he would regret. He said to the doctor "NO! you can safe her! PLEASE! Shes all I've got left." The doctor responded "I'm sorry she's to far gone, even if I had the most advanced equipment with me I don't think she would be able to surivive." The man started to cry and he hugged the doctor. The doctor patted him on the back and said "I'm sorry, I'm sorry" it sounded like he broke into tears but it was hard to tell through the gas mask. Jack and his men lowerd there weapons and moved on. behind them Veragon, Ustian and MF LCACS continued to land and load up the endless flow of refugees. Jack thought "I can't take much more of this."

Though the AA ships were still a few miles off the coast, a couple seahawks were already landing on the beach. The engineers, accompanied by some MF Marines, began staking out an area which would be able to support an adequate airfield. The LCACs were on their way in with bulldozers and other equipment.

On Helicopter

"hehe, this combat suit plan is GREAT." said James Cortez onboard the helicopter. What was left of the Gizmous R&D facilities had revealed inhuman, psychotic things. And it revealed things, critical to New Gizmous'es development. He saw something particular, and took the plan.

Telegram to Monkey Fights:

Some city airports are still useable. I would strongly advise against landing there though. Huge riots are in every city. I would also advise against building your own airport too. Land at rural airports. McEdison airport is functional, and probably staffed.

McEdison Airport

There were barely any riots near McEdison. The control tower was damaged, but stable. The terminal's roof had collapsed in Baggage Checkout. The tarmac was in good condition.

At hearing this, the enterage of engineesr got back in the choppers and flew over the the usable airfield. Bask in MF, 3 C-17s and 10 C-130s were feuling up to evac Gizmousians to their new home in Veragon. The Marines on the ground started to round some survivors toward the airport so the loading could go as fast as possible.

OOC: What's happening at R&D?

OOC: Experimental surgery, mutation experiments, all the stuff you would see in a mad doctor movie.

The MF marines and engineers started to land. They were searching for the best place that the airstrip could be. Whatever place they find its not going to be easy to make or land on it thats for sure. The bulldozers unloaded off of the LCACS and moved onto the beach. Jack wondered if we to provide help for them. Perry got a wire from rear admiral Obrown that "All Ustian personel are ordered to help the MF engieers in anyway possible. I have ordered engineers and construction crew to be sent to the beach to assist with the devlopment of an airfield. They should arrive shortly." One of the bulldozers got stuck in the muding ground. MF and Ustian marines tried to shove it out. It wouldn't budge. Jack and everyone decided to just get more men to push it out, a simple soluation. Finally with about 20 men the bulldozer rolled up and moved on. Everyone cheered and shock each others hand's. After that we went back to are security role. MF and Ustian marines jointly kept everything under control. The Ustian engineers and construction crew arrived about thirty minutes later. The bulldozers and bobcat machines raced onto the beach. Jack said "finally were geting somewhere."

OOC to Veragon:

Word from the gizmous resitence said that there was a functional airfield in some rural airfield. The Ustian engineers and construction crew loaded up in helicopters to repair the damaged parts of the airfield. Some of the refugees were loaded up in transport trucks and were sent to the airfield. Ustian transports soured overhead and went towards McEdison airfield.

The 42nd transport squadron made there way towards McEdison. The globemasters landed and unloaded food, water and other supplies for the oncoming refugees. The Helicopters with the engineers and construction workers unloaded and got to work.

The reconstruction council is just an administrative council comprised of engineers and other professionals to help plan out the new Gizmous. I figure we will draft a new alliance soon though. Perhaps meet in the new Gizmousian capital?

It had been a while....

Everyone seemingly had forgotten about Lordis AND it's subteranean wealth (due to some combination of toxic/nuclear fall-out, and the unstoppable arguing between the formerly warring nations, who still all held embassy here and had been nicely put offside when a local government was re-instated, validating the presence of their embassies and causing much embarrasment when some of the more radical ustian bio-experiments were exposed)

however...

some had survived.. a lt of people and animals still lived there and tried to sustain some form of life and help the island recover...

about 1500 souls now occupied the island, usage of NBC suits and over-pressurised vehicles and housing was commonplace..

In some marvelous way nature was recovering... and the scientists of QTWolf were there, doing front-line research on reversing fall-out and chemical poisoning..

The ONE reason not MANY more people had joined was the 5 year quarantine afterwards..

Commander Olsen was looking out of the window onto a slowly regrowing landscape.. all the trees were fresh, so the view was wide...

there had been many...interesting new evolutions... the purple palm with it's strange inside-out coconuts being only ONE....the twelve legged spiders were another.... still the ferns were doing great this year, and as always, the insect population recovered first...


There had been 50 on the first expedition, under the cover of giving humantarian aid (which was in fact rendered), and rebuilding/excavating the capitol(which was in the process of completion), but half a dozen had perished before the cause of their death had even been asserted...

Most of the insects had been altrered by the phosege-bombardments, and had turned the venomous substance into a defense mechanism... or had just been thoroughly contaminated, the doc's could not agree on that one..

a hundred more people had followed over the next months, bringing all sorts of insectovores, and where most died, the blue-tongued lizard had flourished, and the chameleons were doing just wonderful......and then there were the swallows..... they had saved the island..in a way...even though horribly many were dying every week.. they filtered the island clean

Commander Olsen took a good long fraft of his cigar, and mused that now his command consisted of 124 men and women, and about 200 locals who were hired in civil functions....

Somewhere someone had fond a way to get the oil scenario flowing, and a very simple but equally efficient siphoning system was now very quietly gaining 400tons of premium oil a day, boosting the economies of both countries....that was months ago, before people started coming back to lordisia.... there is always an enterpreneur when there is a profit to be made..

but that was not the biggest win..

the really big win was that Lordisia now sported one of the most advanced hydro-recycling plants everywhere, and that invaluable data was being gathered to benefit all... as well as good money was being made bottling the water and selling it discreetly

QTWolf's statesmen regulated the concession for the drilling at a very humane cost+10% for the installment, and a 10%share in the concession for having supplied its funding... the waterplants and the bio-medical centres that now were hundreds of metres underground were all paid by the first month's yields... that was 3 months ago *details freely available*

Commander Olsen was a very pleased man

his 3 squadrons had been able to salvage much goods from the island, much abandoned wargear.... all this under the humanitarian banner of burying all the dead, and recuing the survivors.. which, to everyone's astonishments, there were... *details classified under the xeno-biology acts and in contained quarantine*

the free militia of QTWolf had been able to salvage about half a dozen armoured vehicles, two tanks, a radar-wagon, and one of the small landing craft (which were put to good use carrying away goods off the radar), and about thenty thousand tons of working military equipment and much more in spare parts...*details on request fromt the ministry of information*

Commander Olsen smiled.. just in case anyone were to assault the facilities (which are all well below the surface), lock-down systems and destruction charges had been implanted.. with very precice protocols

it was a harsh world, mused commander Olsen, as he took a good sip of some Ustian brandy that had been recovered, and scanned the perimeter from this concealed strongpoint(it looked just like all the other houses, but with a much better view) through his state of the art Vegatonian binoculars, but one that suited him and his "Cannibals" to a tee..

Their greatest prize was an abandoned helicopter, and a couple of the now patented big-wheelers, which the mec-boys managed to make out of pretty much everything

These had been enhanced with a combination of anti-detection systems, tool racks and storage...and had basically taken everything they found apart for parts...

He was going to miss this little island.... but his job here was pretty much done... and there were more pressing affairs.. more war-corpses to analyse and wrecks to cannibalize..more waste to recycle...

He drained his glass, picked up his old and battered copy of "sun tzu-the art of war", signalled the orderly he was ready to leave..

there would be formalities as always, but he cared not...

back to the Capitol.. properly a medal... and then a choice... as always... Doctor Olsen?? his would love him to death for it... or commander Olsen...to avoid just that from happening... can't win em all.. but you can survive pretty much everything

Commander Olsen was happy.. as he drained his glass, and picked up his old copy of sun tzu.. his humanitarian mission here was over.. and he had done so much here, so quick.. ofcourse he would never get much of the credit, but that mattered him not...

re-instating the local government to validate the presence of embassies and also put off-side all other foreign entities had been a masterstroke..

exposing the Ustian Xenobiological experiments, and then continuing them for the world's benefit (and in the public eye)had been even better...

the underground oil station that was turning out 400 tons a day now, and that had paid for everything after producing for 40 days was even better...
the QTWolf national oil company was fronting it for a 10% share for making all the costs and setting up the installation (had taken 3 weeks!!), and Olsen had gotten a 10% share in secret from an insanely happy Magistrate...but that was not the biggest win

the biggest win was the new water-recycling plant... necessary AND state of the art.. 6 months of production had paid for that, and some of QTWolf's more enterprising companies had funded the construction up front..

Commander Olsen remembered the treks around the island in the "caterpillars" that the mechanics seemed to be able to make out of pretty much anything

the six- and eight-wheeled versions of which had now been patented and were being mass-produced now in countries with a bigger budget... every tenth one went to the confederacy, as in the patent... and with over 20000 sold now to 400 different nations (mainly as heavy duty service vehicle), the confederacy of QTWolf was even giving away several to other states, as it had done with the twenty now in use in Lordisia...as irony befits it these particular ones were made in Ustia, and formed part of last year's patent-rights, as the Berbatov-Works of Ustia now makes around 500 of these vehicles a year

the four wheeled version just ended up looking similar to the humvee, or to other big-wheelers around the globe

ten thousand tons of military hardware they had removed trom the island, and about ten times that is spare parts.... the spoils of war indeed..

the greatest prize was an abandoned attack-chopper, which was stripped down and then refitted with state of the art anti-detection gear to do service as a salvage-unit,and with space for two passengers in a small plexiglass dome mounting dual miniguns when needed..

the salvage was then carried to a nearby sub in two salvaged assault boats that had been used to convert to transport bargesand transferred to the confederacy

Taking apart the abandoned equipment had been the easy part...

there were survivors.. sometimes hardly human.. and Olsen had lost three good soldiers to a creature scientist are still arguing over today, but which was in all likelyhood once human...

Olsen had pretty good evidence the thing had escaped from an Ustian experiment.......having been the one who had seen all the damage reports first-hand...only the Ustian facility had taken damage AFTER the war...but all had been diplomatically settled.. and nobody but Olsen and his crew would ever know... and they would never tell...

Olsen still kept the twelve-legged spiders....even though they were not venomous or particularly dangerous in any way.... they formed a very interesting enigma, and they seemed to not suffer...and maybe a chance to cure some more of this world's ailments....time would maybe tell...

Doctor Olsen thought of the mixed blessings that life gives...and how he became to be commander Olsen, for a while, and turn some of the disaster into a liveable situation.. and meet the "cannibals" ..an army more adept at taking things apart than at fighting... something everyone joked about a LOT...still it was true.. but that said nothing of their fighting skills...

Olson remembered the nail-gun....an air-compressed pneumatic pump that would shoot fifty nails, each four inches long, in three seconds, through twenty millimeters of steel with accuracy up to forty yards...who would think of such a thing? and there was so much more...

Living off of the death of others...they had chosen their name well...still.. all they took would have been wasted otherwise.. like a maggot only eats dead tissue...well, now someone else would take over.. and soon lordis would only be a memory, and a few sidelines in the history-books
