The Syndicate is interesting in taking your contract out on the civilians of The PeoplesFreedom. The Syndicate has a question, 1. Does your nation mind allowing some of our boys to come to your nation to set up a base in your nation to begin staging these hits?

From: The Rastoran Syndicate

The Bosses have agreed to send three crews of sixty of our boys to your country. We will require large amounts of C4, thermal-imaging equipment, and intelligence information about our targets. We also need a base that is difficult to find and able to make connections with the local smugglers and other people of illicit endeavors. We need this to get information and to find ways into sneaking into this country to launch our raids against the targets you have specified.

Rastorian, I would advise not messing with nations that have populations in the billions, especially when the majority of the alliance they are in has populations in the Billions.

Let it be known that the Dark Empire has risen it's DEFCON Rating due to this threat. We also are hearby raising security at the four International Airports within our nation and running security checks on all civilians (Shazbotdom or not) that go through any airport within the Dark Empire. Specialised ID Cards are required now for any and all travel into and out of the Dark Empire of Shazbotdom. Requests for these cards can be put in at any Embasy of the Dark Empire in a nation that we have an Embasy in.

For those who don't have an Embasy from the Dark Empire, you will need to travel to a nation that does have an Embasy from the Dark Empire to get one of these special cards, plus you will have to go through several background checks as well as other items that we will not mention. If any aircraft from a nation that does not have an Embasy of the Dark Empire approached Shazbotdom, it will be flown to a landing strip, searched, and if nessicary, siezed.


The Nation of ICCD is now hearby declared an Enemy of the Empire for threats against the Dark Empire of Shazbotdom, Her Colonies, and Her Allies. If any aircraft that is comming from ICCD enters the territory of the Dark Empire of Shazbotdom, it will be shot down reguardless of who is on it. Civilian and Military aircaft alike will be targeted.

We will withdraw the Nation of ICCD from the Enemy of the Empire list if, and only if, they withdraw their contract for the murder of innocent civilians in Nations that have alliances with The PeoplesFreedom. Be warned though, if anything happens in the Dark Empire as a result of this contract made by the Nation of ICCD, it will be considered an Act of War agains tthe Dark Empire of Shazbotdom and will be met with full retaliation.

==============================

ICCD invites all parties interested in peaceful resolution of this 'crisis' to peace talks to establish a firm condition of ongoing peace in relation to one another.

ICCD blinded to the reasons for hostility between would be allies finds confusion in the situation.

ICCD discharges a priority towards economic waste and infrastructure damages to any portion of the wurld, as it is not inspiring of growth.

ICCD calls upon all reasonable states to stop the foolishness of tossing threats and placing economic sanctions on another state mearly for self interest, wholey defensive assosiation and fostering goodwill and trade.

If we do not all foster goodwill and open trade, how is that benificial to long term prosperity.

ICCD sees that nations are painting ICCD to be some monster or deamon, when in reality ICCD is a strong supporter of inspiring human condition to higher standards of life that can reap greater benifit for the masses.

Talk of terrorism etc.. is seeminly nothing more then propaganda.

The embargo placed for mearly talking about trade and defensive with a nation is flagrant abuse. No threats were made yet TPF ostracized goodwill, and those that are supporting TPF in this regard are as well. IN nature of the GASN economic point #1 free trade etc... for TPF to place ICCD under stanctions with no valid reason was consoling war against a would be ally, and why? For what reason? Think about the situation clearly, and honestly reconsider your stances various nations.

If you would like to join "peace talks" to sort out this fiasco you nations one and all are invited to do so.

Escalating this is not sought as the death carnage and economic disruption is not sought.



OOC: just write TO: Peacetalks etc.. in the post etc.. If anyone else joins "peacetalks"

ICCD's condition for disarmarment of the situations are
#1. all trade embargos are lifted and normal trade is resumed.
#2. all threats of death and destruction against the persons and property of the Holy Empire of Intracircumcordei are removed.
etc...

In return ICCD will remove any such nations from it's list of hostile nations deserving of annihilation.

Otherwise in mind Lords a war against ICCD in any part of the wurld is a grave error. Any physical attacks conducted against ICCD will be seen as acts of war deserving of martial governance for correction.

The Dark Empire of Shazbtodom will not stand down from it's position. We did recieve your orriginal message that you sent out about "ICCD is offering monetary rewards for any attacks conducted against The PeoplesFreedom, or their allies" so don't use the whole 'Propoganda' flag. You offered $10 usd per person killed and/or half the cost of each item that they destroy. Now your saying that were spreading propoganda? Personally, i smell bullshit comming across the ocean from your nation.

The Dark Empire of Shazbotdom officially, as of this moment, has called for the official stop to all material goods comming in and out of the Dark Empire from the ICCD. We herby are establishing a full Economic Embargo upon ICCD and goods comming from said nation are now considered Contraband and any ships carrying such goods will be destroyed on sight. Thus is the will of the Supreme Emperor, and thus will be done.

ICCDs space fleet is also growing in size. more satalites space stations etc. In general we are a post nuclear state. With global background especially roman (including england and germany)also with Indian, Chinese and Incan minglings. The culture itself is a melting pot however the population is primarly housed in Tropical and Subtropical locations of a wide variety of Terrain. Mounts and uplands are also quite common so is a variety of tropical forests and jungle. There is only one major desert. Food is mostly natural source especially fruits and grains, vitamins and mineral supliments are also very common. It is a mix of the Imperial System and a more socialist society. Where overtime posts became hereditary of sorts, and business tend to be house oreinted.. lots of politics but all business is part of the state (as taxes are 100%) spartan militarism is fairly instituted and children are trained for the military through youth groups equivlent to scouts etc. finally the cadet corps are integrated in the schooling system so over 90% of the students get two years of cadet training. There have been some loosening of the military control of post secondary education via new testing however the testing is still graded and much higher scores are needed for non military civil servants. There is a private market however it only makes money by foreign export, on approval of the state. Individuals can accumulate wealth through private business however there are quotas on major industries that are automatically given to the state, and the state has funds it pays to every citizen, it insures social welfare of all citizens. Individuals may trade their private surpluses however if they sell them rather then give them away they are taxed 1/5th the value of the sale. That is the only tax on sales in the country. However the state reserves the right to confiscate anything required for state purposes.

The population is very loyal with 80+% loyalty even in hard times. The "crime rate" is huge as defined by modern western society.. however a feudal justice system exists.. and the only real penalty is death.. not formal civil prisons exist.. but the state is effectively under martial law. Hereditary titles ect are also in place the empires guilds and houses are the talk of the day, and weild substancial influence. There is a complex legalislative system and electoral system that balances out the peoples interest and places a high level of trust in the public elected judges. who elect from their own ranks and are approved at higher levels by the other branches.. it is a very fluid system that effectively creates a strong majority democratic system, that is very difficult to disrupt at the upper levels due to vetoe powers. Dictatorship isn't the right word for the emperor as it is not a "life term" however all former emperors go over to a council and hold emergency powers for life, generally only applicable in times of crisis. ICCD's airforce is broken down into their very expensive blackhole(stealth int & bomber) and quasar (stealthintercept) aircraft of which there are many models and more coming. ICCD also a developed "black&blue attack stealth attack and instertion helicopter" that has a number of designs. A change in recent years are low cost nonstealth mass produced intercept fighters that have lower fuel capacity less protection but long range sensors and capacity for short burst to increase to hypersonic strike missle speed, these units are also attack UAV's. They are primarily seen as the main defence core (due to budget issues with adequette non hypersonic interceptors as the quasars prooved too expensive to mass produce to training defence planning requirements. Almost alldian equipment is a mix of methane or H2/O2, or H. They have a MCT (main command tank as opposed to main battle tank.. it is bigger and has more limited operations, more expensive, however has greater capacities to act as a crisis comman unit there are three generations of the MCT and a number of hybrids including medical & cargo haul & construction. ICCD has a standard APC that is equiped in three main functions cargo, medical, and unit transport there are also limited supply intel units and special functions including rocket & uav launch models. ICCD also has a more dunebuggy/HMV type system that has a number of small mortar grenade launchers as the main guns. ICCD's air defence is a mishmass of space, ground and naval and air based system, it is heavier on intelligence then it is on response as it relies heavily on it's air interceptors, and point specific defences rather then large coverage of zones. ICCDs ground forces are graded into the post secondary forces (integrated college/university and combat training as well as MOS, they tend to be local and serve as eyes and ears and have minor police powers to arrest and detain, or act on orders of commanders who are usually imperial gaurd. Second stage is more of a operational reserve & gaurd that has integration with regular forces, they have roles on ships, installations, as well as acting as police etc.. on a provincial level (sorta equivlent to federal) They are often the fodder in operations but are almost never used except when on ships in any operations not near the border or inside the country.. that is generally only for bordering nations or inside their own borders, and generally only for emergency situations or homeland defence. The professional Military for Dians is seen at the Imperial Gaurd level.. these officers have served and are quite educated as rank advancement is both test and physical based. They basically run the country on a daily basis, if you are imperial gaurd or higher you are basically well set in life, gaurentied a modest pension and entry into any basic government division branch, options for carrer into medical and otherwise is available, as they would have masters or doctorates after completeing the Imperial Military College. After they advance to the highest rank in the Imperial Gaurd they are able to become lictors.. the lictors run the country behind the scenes they are basically the secret police, SS, the cia, and NSA, MI, Mossad, KGB etc.. all in one, they act in a number of roles, it is generally where most political officers come from, they act for the good of the Empire. Oddly the airforce is drawn from ranks of lictor and above with few exceptions. ect... There are a number of cultural expectations and guidelines.. the military is very integrated with the government it is the government, there are no "standard" police forces" and the only penalty judges can impose are death, exile or dismissal of the case, judges hold the power to petition for war against an individual or house, and only for acts against state, the penalty is usually death. There are holding facilities but not for citizens, everyone is free within the imperium. The navy uses a mass force of missle frigates that also serve as cargos and small scale troop transports, there is also a substancial stealth missle/torpedo sub production, the most expensive units tend to be submersible command units (with aircraft carrier capacities).. however there are also some other designs fleets tend to be divided with a mix of surface ships and subsurface ships, however the fleet is more of a fast attack and intercept force and not designed for amphibeous bombardment operations, they tend to leave that role to the airforce or missles. However the frigates have midcalibre guns (mostly designed for antipersonnel and air defence) There is a substancial air wing attached to the navy mostly for insertion and standard airforce operations from a seabase. Upperstage body armor is common for imperial gaurd and above. Arms are bought by the soilders from their salaries or as inherited, there are standard arms and ammo supplied to the armories for the Imperial Gaurd for training purposes and for other officers. ICCD features a two firearm weapon standard the multioperations combat system (featuring three configuration, between role as small barrel, sniping, assualt, or mounting) various ammo types are available however the 12mm standard round, although it comes in tungsten/steel teflon slug, fletchet, and smartround, as well as other casing etc. types. It is rather heavy compaired to some other rifles (really more of a light machine gun in size and use put with precision capability and the short mode makes it much easier to carry) and seen the ts t is standard anti advanced force use for it's armour penetration capacity. THe small gun is the IMP, the IMP is comparible to a mini galil but also with the 12mm round, it is much smaller and doesn't have the bells and whilses of the IAR, and only comes in short config for close proximalty combat (500 meters) is seen as the reasonable combat range and is designed for close quarters fighting. All systems are plugable or standalone.
there is a bunch of other equipment specific to vehicles etc.. however in general the Imperial Gaurd and above are seen as "standard military" Equipment is quite expensive and has taken many years to accumulate.

ICCD in has a total landmass around the size of north america distributed over three regions. with some outlaying less developed possesions.

ICCDs trade is centered around agriculture and technology including IT, however it is effectively a military industrial complex. Run by a very complex cultural and political system.

EDIT: mini galil = micro galil and that is a rough description.

This guys really aware of his nations status. Bravo!

To: George A. Loak, Supreme Emperor fo the Dark Empire of Shazbotdom through long range radiowave transmission.

"...so don't use the whole 'Propoganda' flag." It is propaganda.. ICCD didn't do anything before it was threatened with an unknown punishment. TPF declared war on ICCD in all but saying they were at war by creating an unknown response, emerging and being held as "greater then embargo". Whatever that may be.

"You offered $10 usd per person killed and/or half the cost of each item that they destroy. "

That is an outright lie!!! ICCD offered a monetary range starting at 10$ and going to 10 million$ AND NOT USD!!! It was in Gold Standard Cuneus current market value around 1.8 NS$. AND furthermore ICCD did not offer Half of the value they offered 1/10th the value. ICCD assumed only valid targets would be targeted and invalid targets would not be targeted. IE those targets that were part of the Nation that is hostile to ICCD's economic and civil pursuits such as TPF's and anyone that backed TPF's economic program.


"Now your saying that were spreading propoganda?" You are and bad propaganda at that.

We keep our dung, it has a variety of economic usages.

Dark Empire of Shazbotdom get off of it, there is not reason to stop trade with ICCD it is mutually benificial, can you not see that?

We are willing to take your goods.
ICCD has of course stopped trade with all hostile parties at this point IE all GASN and all known allies if they are in support of an hostile embargo i.e. death destruction etc.. of Dian Goods.


Thus will of the Supreme and most Holy Emperor is for peace in reason, it is madness to assume that that peace in reason calls for The Dark Empire to be removed from our trade, and their enjoyment in life through use of Intracircumcordei's fine products. What are the people to do without Jiffypop n' buzz super chemacocktail popularly known as (Jiffy Slurry).

ICCD is here to help not bring withdawl and depression.

OOC: DE of Shaz.. is now on the list of places not to go to list for Dians. trade and travel advisory of the foreign ministry.

SECRET IC:
SCENE: Imperial Palace
"Sir." The Minister of Foreign Affairs stated as he entered George's Office. "ICCD replied to our message. You remember how before they denied their 'terrorist' threats and said they were works of propoganda? They now are claiming to have said it."

George stood up from his desk and walked over to the window. "They finally show their true colors." He then turned toward Larry. "Tell the MSF Blagraland to send down a flight group of Thunderbirds and four Pelican's. I want one of the Pelicans to prepare to hoist a WH-04 (http://shazbotdom.bashwebdesign.com/images/Marine/JungleCamoWarthog.jpg), one to prepare to hoise a WH-03 (http://shazbotdom.bashwebdesign.com/images/Marine/TroopTransportWarthog.jpg), one to prepare to hoist a WH-01 (http://shazbotdom.bashwebdesign.com/images/Marine/StreetWarthog.jpg), and the last one to prepare to hoist my private armored sports car." He then sat back down at his desk. "I'll play nice and go to these 'peace talks'. Send a message to them notifying them that I will be comming, with protection."

Larry bowed at George. "Yes, Sir. Thy will be done." He then walks to the door and opens it, before he leaves he says one thing, "I will go type up themessage and send it out now, Sir."

TO: Mr. Larry Williams, Minister of Foreign Affairs for the Dark Empire
FROM: Logothe of the Drome, Holy Empire of Intracircumcordei
SUBJECT: "Peace Talks"

ICCD is pleased that Shazbotdom is attending the talks, and with your nations leader none the less, ICCD is honoured by his appearance. We have decided on a special location for the peace talks; however, we cannot communicate this location except in person. We ask that one of your agents flies on a neutral air flight to ICCD with special writ being faxed. For the location, this will be kept in secret. The peace talks will house seperate entrances and divisions able to accomodate one table of delegates each, with one central speaking podium. Everything will be blast proof. We will insure that only preauthorized individuals gain entry to a 3km radius of the talks, which will not be conducted in a populated center. They will likely be held in a POW detainment center as it may be the only facility able to accomodate the talks without mass construction being required. We will be sure to dress up the location offer refreshments etc.. In addition any refreshment or other requirements of your entourage would be welcome. Note that all equipment will need to be searched by security, so we ask that you send notice of all items brought to insure maximun security. Also host security forces will only be armed with what is required to subdue an attacker, i.e. gas, tranquilizer, concussion grenades, flares, foam guns etc.. The only way an individual could normally be harmed is if there is a coupe in the government or a member of an entourage attempts an assasination. ICCD has no benifit to the talks being derailed. Mildly it is more likely that we send a wing of stealth aircraft to bomb your leaders residence then it is for an assasination attempt to succeed at the talks.
