Borman Empire declares was upon the nation of Socal8

Borman Empire
16-08-2006, 14:59
Official Imperial Statement:

The Borman Empire is a nation of peace, but skilled in war. When the need arises we shall sadly lay down our merchant tools and draw up our arms to prove our honor in battle. That such a time has come. As any and all know Borman Empire does not enjoy being threatened, intimidated, harassed, or any other things of the sort. Recently however we have come under such actions from a nation known as ‘Socal8’. At first our relaxed nature was to ignore the threats, comments, and hazing about our nation, people, culture, and leader by the leader of Socal8. However soon his threats rained harder and harder and when a counter-intelligence agency within my nation made a discovery, we knew it was time to act.

The Borman Intelligence Agency (BIA) found a spy within our nation attempting to access our government and uncover secrets to reveal to King John II. However what was most disturbing was the heavily armed terrorist cell found 10 miles outside of Jonaked. How these men got into the country or received weapons is beyond BIA, we are still looking into that. But what we do know is that they had instructions and directions directly from King John II ordering them to commit terrorist attacks on Borman Empire at least once a week.

Now as the international community knows, it is only criminal to sit by and watch as terror goes on. Any nation would launch a counter-terror attack on these terrorists, we were however lucky enough to apprehend them before any damage was done. Say what you may about Borman, but there are certain things that always hold true and good, and that is our rigid hatred of terrorism.

Between a meeting of various important figures within the Borman Empire it was decided that Socal8 would continue until they inflicted harsh unwarranted pain upon the peoples of the Borman Empire, and possibly the Bornerifreudic empire. As such there was no course save a declaration of war for the peace and safety of both Borman Empire, and the world.

Official Imperial Communique:

To: King John II
From: Chancellor Licinius

Our meeting has ended in a unanimous decision that your hostile attitude is a direct threat to the Borman Empire, and threats never go unanswered. As such, we see it fit at this time to declare war upon your nation of Socal8. As of this moment a state of war exists between our two nations.

Official Imperial Statement:

There are many ways for governments, peoples, agencies, and more to communicate. Some of these ways are very secret, some not so secret. Transmissions and communiqués were sent between the Kingdom of Socal8 and the War Machine of Borman Empire in a number of ways. Some of these, the more innocent hearted, or at least appeared more innocent hearted; were in open low encryption communiqués. These are the messages the world, who decided to decode and read the messages between two sovereign nations, are more privy to as they were easier to find. There were however others, so highly encrypted and secretly transmitted that None but the sender and receiver knew the contents. In these secure channels the Kingdom of Socal8 baited, threatened, and insulted the War Machine of Borman Empire. So as to prove the fight of a just and warranted war, Emperor Bhalk of the Borman Empire has seen it fit at this time to release some of these transmissions and discussions so that the world may know the more hidden aspects of the relationship between our two nations. First we shall present the world with a word for word copy of the comminques between our nations which the world already has seen as they felt the right and need to read them.

Official Imperial Communiqué:

To: King John II
From: Chancellor Licinius

We see that you are a new nation in the world and know not what to do. Being the kind generous people we are we are willing to extend a once in a lifetime opportunity to you. We shall make you a colony of the great Borman Empire. Now you ask, why would you want to be a colony. Well, I say, why not? As a colony of the Borman Empire you get Borman Empire protection, and consequently protection of the many many allies that Borman Empire has. An Imperial General will reside in your nation actively directing its activities in a constructive manner so as to better both yourselves and Borman. Further, your economy and industry shall be maximized with our help and the results of this shipped off to Borman so that we can distribute Socal8 to the world. Now, I can go on and on listing the benefits of being a colony, or I could just propose it. So, what do you say, become a colony or no?

End Transmission
To: Chancellor Licinius
From: King John II


We will NEVER submit to a foreign ruler. We do not ask for war but any invasion of Socal8 territory will not be tolerated.
Official Imperial Communique:

To: King John II
From: Chancellor Licinius

We are shocked and appalled at your answer. We find your implications of your intent to make war on us equally scary. As of yet there is no war, but the emperor, myself, and advisors shall meet to discuss your intent to rage war and release our answer.

End Transmission
To: Chancellor Licinius
From: King John II

We do not wish for war but we will not tolerate being one of your colonies. Leave us in peace and nothing more will come of this.

However behind the scenes, so to speak, Socal8 was playing a different card and acting a different nation. With the thoughts that his words were free from all to view but the intended person, Socal8 became the nation which has had war declared upon it. If you pay attention, you can notice Chancellor Licinius reference the telegrams in his communiques.


From Message

The Kingdom of Socal8
Received: 7 hours ago I just want to ask a question. Do you want your dumb emperors head on a pike or platter?

The Kingdom of Socal8
Received: 1 day ago So you decided to declare war. Guess what, youre gonna loose. Not only will my soldiers being attacking you, but it looks like GASN will be helping me. I’m gonna join them and were gonna beat you and then your gonna be my colony.

The Kingdom of Socal8
Received: 1 day ago Cry baby! Ill call your people and nation and everything else stupid as much as I want. And when my soldiers are burning your nation and spreading your blood everywhere then youll see you were wrong. Before that however my men inside are going to blow up all your people and military stuff so when we do come you will have no men and they wont even have anything to shoot.

The Kingdom of Socal8
Received: 1 day ago It wasnt hard at all to get into your nation. Your stupid people and soldiers are as dumb as your leaders. We just told them we were visiting and they let us in, we did have some paperwork but didnt really need it.

The Kingdom of Socal8
Received: 1 day ago Have your stupid little meeting, it won’t do anything to help delay your death! As we speak our secret agents are entering your nation and are preparing to make you pay in blood for even suggesting we be a colony.

The Kingdom of Socal8
Received: 1 day ago We do not want to be a colony and will not be asked again. Infact, how about you become our colony? We’re going to get our soldiers and invade you and make you a colony. Time for war!

As you can see Socal8 obviously bears ill will towards the Borman Empire for inquiring as to whether or not they wanted to be a colony. The Empire itself would not like to be a colony, and so we would be able to perfectly understand a simple “no.” However we know that in today’s troubling world it is hard for a new nation to start, and so we proposed the offer. But it awoke a beast which has attempted to kill innocent life and the lives of soldiers for no reason other than a question with good intentions. Never has Borman Empire stood by as its allies or itself was threatened and especially not when nations attempted to carry out their threats. As such meeting between advisors, emperors, and leaders of other allied nations have come to the complete agreement that war was not only advisable but necessary.

As such we took it into our hands to clean up the mess and stop the threat of Socal8. We have been promised military and financial aid and have the ability to call hundreds of nations to our defense, however at this time it is not needed. We shall not waste our allies resources helping us to fight a war we can easily handle; however we have promised them the right and option to enter the war if more and more nations take the side of the true aggressor, socal8.

Admiral Jimmy Kennedy gazed out at sea as the ships sped towards their destination. His heart pounded as his mind raced through scenarios for combat and slowly but surely awoke memories he did not enjoy. Combat was not always fun, and when it wasn’t fun, it was nothing but hell. But then the thoughts of enjoyment came to him and dim smile illuminated his face as the white sea spray shot up at him.

“Excuse me sir.”

The smile melted from Jimmy’s face and returned to a solid expressionless gaze. He turned around and faced the young man with a sheaf of papers in hand.

“Go ahead.”

“Well other than Socal8 they seem to have three or four allies. Otagia, he was involved in an incident about a year earlier and placed sanctions on us. And two or three other GASN nations that are trying to get GASN to step in against us.”

“Well our fight is not with GASN, Borman has several friends and potential allies in there; and as of yet they have done nothing but threaten involvment. As such they will remain untounched unless they act first. Inace they do, I presume other battle fleets are being deployed to different theaters, correct?”

“That is correct sir. The sixth through the ninth fleets are being sent out to different locations around the globe to better position them to move in if need be.”

“Fine then, carry on with your normal activities.”

“Yessir.”

And with that the wheels of war began to trun against Socal8. The first and second battle fleets continued to make their way towards Socal8 with the first army aboard, it was time for war.

OFFICIAL IMPERIAL STATEMENT

As all the universe is under the eye of the gods, so the eyes of the Imperium see far; our hunters sniff out the infidel and the heretic wherever they may hide. The Imperium has cast its gaze upon the Kingdom of Socal8, and the sight that meets our eyes is a pit of sodomite, lying cowards, whose godlessness is a reek that poisons the world and whose forked tongues have backed them into a corner from which they will not escape. To our brothers in the Borman Empire, we send confidence; the arm of Borman is long, and these fiends shall not escape it. Under the gods, the Imperium swears aid; should the call of our Borman allies resound across the straits, we are with you, and the guns of infidels will not stop us. Borman knows of the foul rebellion that wracks the Empire, and yet with our recent and most glorious naval triumph against a faction of the traitors, forces have been freed up in all divisions of the Armed Forces; furthermore, the Intelligence Division is ready as always to aid our brothers through the use of our agents. In any case, the Imperium eagerly awaits the scent of the blood of the infidel, shed by us or no; long shall stand the power of the Borman Empire. Blood and Honor.

Borman will not sit idly by as we're threatened, its never happened, and also one of the reasons we are immensily powerful. Not discrediting your claim, but looking through your members many of them seem to be allies or friends of either myself or the Bornerifreudic empire; unlikely that they will raise arms against us. Continuing to look through, the Borman Empire can single handedly defeat many of your members; and in some cases coalitions of your members. However, you also seem to ignore the fact that Borman is in at least ten VERY powerful alliances.

Bottom line: We fear no alliance and none shall prevent us from distributing justice.

Official Imperial Statement

The Empire looks with pity on the nation that would dare threaten Generia's oldest and mightiest ally, the great Borman Empire, and in the face of such overwhelming evidence of premeditated assault by the farcical gang of misfits attempting to pass itself off as the nation of Socal8, we see no other option than to echo Emperor Bhalk's call for war, and put this matter to bed once and for all.

We, the sons of Generia, loyal servants of the emperors, have never forsaken the other members of the magnificent Bornerifreudic Empire, and we shall not begin to do so now. Those who make offenses against the Borman Empire, make offenses against Generia, her Emperor Kazatmiru, and her Freudian allies. Thus, we shall prepare our forces for war.

Let those who would stand in the path of Borman's campaign in Socal8 be warned, the Bornerifreudic Empire will brook no aggression, and our appetite for destruction will not be sated until justice is served.

But this is not to say we are an unreasonable or bloodthirsty people, though war we do not fear. We offer the allies of Socal8 to reconsider their stance in the face of the evidence of that nation's obvious warmongering, and to back away and allow proper justice to be dealt.

Pending further investigation from the governing council of GASN, there will be no official response from the GASN until some specifics of the situation are truly brought to light. Although we do not approve of the Borman Empire's actions, we will not intervene if these private communiques are proven to be true for reasons of our own. If they are true, it is likely Socal8 will be denied membership in the GASN. If they, however, are not true and instead war propoganda, member nations may move to Socal8's defense at their own discretion seeing as the nation is still a pending member, and after ratification participation will still be optional since the declaration of war was made prior to acceptance.

((OOC: Essentially, I need to know 100% yes or no those TGs were sent by Socal8 by both Borman and Socal. Sorry if it was confirmed earlier in the thread, but I have alot to do right now and have only time to lightly skim the page. If you'd be so kind for a simple yes or no, it'd be much appreciated. Thanks in advance, guys.

If it is true, which I have little doubt since someone like Borman, although I barely know you, would make such things up, Socal8 pretty much is denied. We don't need nor want people who'll use the alliance as a shield, thank you very muchly. Nothing against you OOCly, of course.))

Once again, I would like to reiterate the Cravanian statement by saying that as of right now, there is no GASN backing of socal8. The previous messages from Illior were only about the incompetence of the Bormani scribes not being able to spell war. We suggest to the Bormani leader that they fire the scribe for incompetence and making the Borman Empire look rather undereducated, and in need of a decent grammar checker. Note to Parthians, not all nations in GASN are communistic, as we are a Demonarchy, as TIOR would say, so there!

Foreign Office Statement

His Majesty’s Government would like to express its concern over the developing situation involving the Borman Empire and the nation of Socal8; for as an ally of the Borman Empire, the United Kingdom would be willing to consider the deployment of a limited number of service personnel should they be requested. Such support, however, would be contingent upon the willingness of the involved and aggrieved parties to discuss a peaceful settlement of their stated – and unstated – differences and grievances, and should such talks fail, then the United Kingdom would be obliged to render aid to its ally.

Owing to the history of friendship and co-operative ventures undertaken with the Borman Empire, the United Kingdom may not be seen as an entirely neutral party; however, if both parties would be willing to sit down and talk, His Majesty’s Government is willing to offer a secure site within the UK for such discussions.

The United Kingdom implores all parties to resolve their differences through peaceful means; yet, should those measures fail, the United Kingdom reaffirms its commitment to its long-time friend, the Borman Empire.

Hand Delivered Message
To the Attention of Chancellor Licinius

Although our two governments rarely communicate at such a high level of this, I have decided that the current situation in Socal8 necessitates a personal dialogue between the upper echelons of the governments of the Borman Empire and that of the United Kingdom. Upon return from a assignment outside of the United Kingdom, the Secretary of State for Colonial Affairs received a message from the Royal Governor of the Crown Colony of Abercordensa, which shares a direct land border with the Borman colony on Cordensa.

While not with the intention to sound alarmist, His Excellency Governor Carey has expressed reservations regarding the internal political dynamics of the Borman colony. While I would not allow this concern to be made public through the Foreign Office, I believe that I ought to relay the concerns of Governor Carey, that something may very well be amiss. He cites a marked decrease in violence as perhaps a prelude to a much larger spate of short duration or a pause to allow for the consolidation of resources for a more protracted, though admittedly low-intensity conflict of arms.

The United Kingdom remains committed to the preservation of democracy and governments built upon democratic institutions; as such, I would rather any request for assistance be limited to those nations and parties directly threatening the Borman Empire, not requests for sustained offensive operations against fellow democracies. Given the aforementioned concern of Governor Carey, however, the Colonial Office and Ministry of Defence are investigating the possible deployment of additional ground forces to the Crown Colony of Abercordensa. If the fears of Governor Carey were to be realised in light of this potential conflict with Socal8, the United Kingdom stands ready to do its part in maintaining the sovereignty of Your Imperial Government over the Borman colony in Cordensa.

Such a commitment, again, must also be carefully specified. As both states are well aware, the United Kingdom maintains strong alliances with several other nations committed to democratic governments, most importantly the Republic of Pacitalia and the Grand Archduchy of Hamptonshire. Should either party be drawn into such a conflict, His Majesty’s Government would be forced to withdraw its forces if unable to persuade them not to take up arms against the Borman Empire, my preferred course of action at the moment.

Until such a time as our governments form a consensus upon the proper and most effective course of action, I wish your government luck in combating the forces of Socal8.

Sincerely,

Alistair Tetley

Official Parthian Statement

The Shahdom of Parthia looks with disgust upon the self righteous Communists of the GASN and their opposition to the perfectly legitimate actions taken by our ally, Emperor Bhalk, and our own actions in Chitzeland in restoring order and ensuring the government does not fall to Communists. As such, we have decided, that if indeed, it comes to war with our allies, the Shahdom of Parthia will offer our full support in any way possible to rid ourselves of menaces to order and security who seek to prevent the legitimate actions of CAD and the Bornerifreudic Empire.

This is the first, last, and only warning.

-Shah Khosru III

Official Imperial Statement:

As always The Parthians is ready to stand by Borman Empire, for this all we can do is thank them. The loyalty of The Parthians always stands strong, contributing to the dominance and power our 'gang' has. Again, thank you for your support.

Some of the nations in GASN aren't communist, in fact some of them are allies and friends of the Borman Empire and in fact yourself. However some of them seem to be well, communists.

I hear word that you yourself are also in an engagement with GASN and others, as such it is my duty to assist you. I shall have my men find the incident and make public our support.

[FONT="Palatino Linotype"]Foreign Office Statement

His Majesty’s Government would like to express its concern over the developing situation involving the Borman Empire and the nation of Socal8; for as an ally of the Borman Empire, the United Kingdom would be willing to consider the deployment of a limited number of service personnel should they be requested. Such support, however, would be contingent upon the willingness of the involved and aggrieved parties to discuss a peaceful settlement of their stated – and unstated – differences and grievances, and should such talks fail, then the United Kingdom would be obliged to render aid to its ally.

Owing to the history of friendship and co-operative ventures undertaken with the Borman Empire, the United Kingdom may not be seen as an entirely neutral party; however, if both parties would be willing to sit down and talk, His Majesty’s Government is willing to offer a secure site within the UK for such discussions.

The United Kingdom implores all parties to resolve their differences through peaceful means; yet, should those measures fail, the United Kingdom reaffirms its commitment to its long-time friend, the Borman Empire.

*Snip*

Official Imperial Response:

We are delighted to know that you are more on our side then truly neutral. However, when we go to war it is because it is necessary and so rarely have peace talks. As of this time we believe all peace will achieve is another chance and more time for Socal8 to infiltrate Borman Empire and get more operatives inside.

The thought or fear of an explosion of organized violence has been talked of several times, but usually the signs seem to point against it. However, nothing is outside of the realm of possibility, and so the issue always stays readily discussed. I believe next time it comes up I will mention the concern of allies in the recent peace in that it might be a farce. I thank you for your concern.

As of this time we do not require military or financial aid for the colony or the Empire itself, but we appreciate the fact that it is available. If we do require it, we will of course keep to your requests.

In response to the last announcement made by the Borman Empire I have this to say; I sent no terrorists to infiltrate your country and I was not the first to suggest war. The Borman Empire sent the Kingdom of Socal8 an ultimatem.It was become a colony or be invaded. Naturally I stated that the Kingdom of Socal8 had no problems with the Borman Empire but would not accept being invaded and that we would defend ourselves. I said nothing about offensive operations all that was stated was that my nation would defend itself if attacked. No messages were sent threatening the Borman Empire. The Borman Empire is using lies and deceit to deceive the world so that it can get away with blatant imperialism.

Pending further investigation from the governing council of GASN, there will be no official response from the GASN until some specifics of the situation are truly brought to light. Although we do not approve of the Borman Empire's actions, we will not intervene if these private communiques are proven to be true for reasons of our own. If they are true, it is likely Socal8 will be denied membership in the GASN. If they, however, are not true and instead war propoganda, member nations may move to Socal8's defense at their own discretion seeing as the nation is still a pending member, and after ratification participation will still be optional since the declaration of war was made prior to acceptance.

((OOC: Essentially, I need to know 100% yes or no those TGs were sent by Socal8 by both Borman and Socal. Sorry if it was confirmed earlier in the thread, but I have alot to do right now and have only time to lightly skim the page. If you'd be so kind for a simple yes or no, it'd be much appreciated. Thanks in advance, guys.

If it is true, which I have little doubt since someone like Borman, although I barely know you, would make such things up, Socal8 pretty much is denied. We don't need nor want people who'll use the alliance as a shield, thank you very muchly. Nothing against you OOCly, of course.))

Official Imperial Response:

Throughout the course of time many nations have disapproved of our actions, few have done anything about it. Whether or not they were right in disapproval is not the issue, the fact is Borman has done what has been found necessary time and time again; and come out victorious. We have no quarrel with GASN, and in fact are allied with a number of GASN members one way or another. Unless GASN acts against Borman for doing her sovereign duties or another of Borman’s allies, we shall continue to have no quarrel.

Whether or not you believe the communiqués to be true is your choice. We have a justification and need for war, we have put out the evidence and now it does not matter what is thought; as we shall carry ahead. However, not all evidence has been released. Terrorists are still being interrogated and we do have photographic copies of the communiqués before they were deleted. At this time the Emperor has deemed it fit to release further evidence gathered earlier in the conflict. As such this evidence shall be made available to the public along with the other evidence.

I do not beleive this is a fight the GASN should get involved in.

His telegram made the posts I made in the NS draftroom (which got me banned), and the messages I sent to other regions during times of great hostilities, look minor in comparission.

Plus, according to this, Socal8 declared war first, and therefore GASN should treat the Socal8 incident in the same manner as the one caused by Hataria.

Only governing members of the GASN miltary council may declare wars upon other countries in the name of the GASN. This has been made clear time and again.

In the meantime, I'll tag this thread, and ask if I may provide aid to Borman's forces (but shall take no part in any of the battles).

OOC: It is rare for me to answer an OOC question about IC details. I have the strong belief that no matter how much someone says OOC does not influence IC or they are unbiased, they still are. OOC knowledge always affects IC knowledge and actions, hence my tendency to sometimes send IC messages to governments through TGs if I really don’t want that knowledge affecting a response or RP. If you pay attention, it seems that whenever a player learns something OOCly like an answer or tip, their IC persona seems to sense this information and use it to their IC advantage.

I enjoy making the real world come to life here, and in a real world situation your peoples and nation can only wonder, trust, or guess whether or not the communiqués truly happened; you can never be 100% sure. This is an aspect of the real world I enjoy, always wondering if something is propaganda or not; and I’ve brought it to the game for all you. I would prefer if the question remained unanswered, however it seems to be damaging Socal8’s OOC reputation; and that is not a desired result. As such, for his sake, I shall admit that the telegrams are government propaganda. They did not happen and any OOC respect should not be taken away from Socal8. As I seemed to gain his, he has gained my respect for being a tremendously good sport and not reacting like a noob or newb.

However, now that I’ve posted this I can guarantee that the thing I was trying to avoid will happen. OOC knowledge will affect IC knowledge and nations that had supported Borman might suddenly become neutral or switch support to Socal8. The GASN vote which might’ve gone against him will most likely go for him, but oh well. (If he was to be kept out of GASN I would’ve wanted it for IC reasons, or reaction to IC propaganda; not OOC feeling about the propaganda, which is not fair and hence another reason I admitted it)

And guess what, this OOC effect on IC has affected me as well. After seeing how much of a good sport he was I was compelled to have peace talks and make him an ally; but for principle I must continue on with the war. However now I fight it with a great respect for the player behind Socal8.

P.S. My IC government will of course continue to act as if you all still believe the TGs to be real; seeing as all your IC governments should.

OOC: Hey, I have nothing to apologize for. I said, repeatedly, that I wasn't going to make a decision either way because I didn't know either of them well enough.

OOC: Well, now that that's settled... I've already been in the process of completely rewriting the GASN charter to include a situation like this. Nations in a state of war can apply for assistance, but not full membership, thereby making particiapation of members completely optional. Hopefully I'll have 2.0 in place sometime soon and be able to take that run down shanty of an alliance and restore it to what it once was.

However... I do feel the image was fairly unnecessary, Borman, since I do feel that that would have confirmed it OOCly, thereby ruining Socal's reputation forever. Whenever I include propoganda, I tend to leave an OOC note so as to not be accused of such a thing or godmodding. And it is something this situation could have been avoided with had there been a simple OOC yes or no, since all respectable RPers know what info they can and cannot use ICly. Hell, I've known unsavory things OOCly about many people I fought along side of, and yet I continued to RP not knowing it ICly or not acknowledging it. Something to keep in mind, I suppose.

Thank God it's settled, though... One less thing to give me a headache. I'll cease clogging your self-righteous newb-stomp now.
Hurtful Thoughts

OOC: It is rare for me to answer an OOC question about IC details. I have the strong belief that no matter how much someone says OOC does not influence IC or they are unbiased, they still are. OOC knowledge always affects IC knowledge and actions, hence my tendency to sometimes send IC messages to governments through TGs if I really don’t want that knowledge affecting a response or RP. If you pay attention, it seems that whenever a player learns something OOCly like an answer or tip, their IC persona seems to sense this information and use it to their IC advantage.

I enjoy making the real world come to life here, and in a real world situation your peoples and nation can only wonder, trust, or guess whether or not the communiqués truly happened; you can never be 100% sure. This is an aspect of the real world I enjoy, always wondering if something is propaganda or not; and I’ve brought it to the game for all you. I would prefer if the question remained unanswered, however it seems to be damaging Socal8’s OOC reputation; and that is not a desired result. As such, for his sake, I shall admit that the telegrams are government propaganda. They did not happen and any OOC respect should not be taken away from Socal8. As I seemed to gain his, he has gained my respect for being a tremendously good sport and not reacting like a noob or newb.

However, now that I’ve posted this I can guarantee that the thing I was trying to avoid will happen. OOC knowledge will affect IC knowledge and nations that had supported Borman might suddenly become neutral or switch support to Socal8. The GASN vote which might’ve gone against him will most likely go for him, but oh well. (If he was to be kept out of GASN I would’ve wanted it for IC reasons, or reaction to IC propaganda; not OOC feeling about the propaganda, which is not fair and hence another reason I admitted it)

And guess what, this OOC effect on IC has affected me as well. After seeing how much of a good sport he was I was compelled to have peace talks and make him an ally; but for principle I must continue on with the war. However now I fight it with a great respect for the player behind Socal8.

P.S. My IC government will of course continue to act as if you all still believe the TGs to be real; seeing as all your IC governments should.

OOC:
Same here, except, first time I tried that I was drawn and quartered. The last time I tried it the other members had been so clueless to my actions that I had to intentionally tell them what had really happened through IC flashbacks (after I made certain that all other players stated very clearly their intents and what they thought [OOCly I tried leading them to believe someone else did it, guess who they pointed fingers at...]).

PROHT shall still render logistical aid to Borman, in light of the "fact" that they had been attacked first (the Germans did the same thing to the Polish, so don't feel bad).

The second reason is to ease tensions between GASN/non-GASN members.
Just call me France...

OOC: The problem is that pretty much all the time OOC will affect IC, and so I don't tell whether or not it's propoganda.

Government leaders dont tell their people or other nations that their propoganda is real or false, and I want to be as real as possible.

OOC: Little post to start it off.

IC:
The ships continued bearing ahead, Socal8 beginning to appear on the map; the time for war was here. As always a tiny wave of aircraft would start it off, and so one of the Borman class carriers in the first fleet came to life. Men scrambled to and fro along the top of the carrier, readying fifty F78Fs for take off to engage any Socal8 targets they may run into. Soon enough they began to take off and form into wings in the sky. One half of the planes stayed grouped together, and the other half stayed together.

The leader of the left wing looked ahead and took a deep breath. Snapping his eyes shut tightly he muttered, “Let’s kill these bitches.” Opening his eyes he activated super cruise and took off for the Socal8 coast at mach 2.65.

As they began approaching the left wing spread more to the left, readying for the ambush. Suddenly the planes disappeared as they activated active camouflage and began to fiddle with the AFFC/SIRR-12. Pilots set the counter-measure system so that any enemy aircraft and most land based radar stations would read the position of the wing as immediately on top of the right wing; leaving them exposed and vulnerable to the left wing ready to spring to action.

Socal8 shoreline- 300 hours Corporate time.

The dark waters of the Socal8 shore gave the right mood and setting for what unspeakable hell that was to be unleashed on the unsuspecting people of Socal8 . The shower of hells flames and hot projectiles would the people feel and then fall to their knees and beg for the mercy of the Corporate Security Forces.... They would find none.

The Security General who was given the task as acquiring the Socal8 nation looked at his targets defenses through his telescope on the bride of the RC Relentless. The Capitol ship of the Corporate forces. The vision of hell put into the shape of metal and weapons. The Socal8's shores never looked so invasion worthy.

“The shores of Socal8 are defended but not on every aspect...” said the General as he dropped his scope.

“ Sir?” asked an employee aboard the ship as he stopped to file paper work.

“ The shores have plenty of soldiers but not enough air defense. Plenty of shore wall but not enough escape route for them to regroup and retaliate....They are dead from the skies...” replied the General as he looked back into the scope along with brushing his beard with the other hand.

The employee nodded and went about his work taking papers back and forth from the bridge to the lower decks.

The general then looked back and requested his data on the current Socal8 weapons and tactics. He quickly looked them over and looked over the battle plan from H.Q. He needed to consult others to get a proper analysis of the information. His other officers looked them over and came up with the same operation as H.Q. The General gave the final word on the plan and gave it to the H.Q. for operation authorization.

Raven corps H.Q. Willink- Terra City,

The operation authorization request was received and was given the code of authorization. The request was then sent to Colderon for final authorization. And it was given. The final code was given and sent back to the General for the operation to proceed.

Socal8 shore...

The Code was received and the operation was a go. The general gave the word to ready the soldiers for deployment. Aboard the Orca dropships the soldiers where given shots of Performance enhancers to raise their heart rates and pick up their senses and.... make them numb to pain.

The dropships picked up their final fuel up and ammo fill. Along with final weapons checks. The fleets amassing amount of Raven Arsenal ships took their places and readied their missiles and began to initiate their launch.. The missile pods opened and exposed the weapons of death.

OOC: This is just basically a long and elaborate tag. So Borman, with your permission, now that the war's on, can I get involved?

TO THE HIGH LORDS OF THE IMPERIUM

In the name of the priesthood, greetings.

The compliments of the College of Priests to all our brothers who range far from the Holy City; to the War-Priests, noble servants of the gods of war, we send greetings and blessings. To the Immortals, the anointed of the Dragon, we likewise extend the graces of the Seven True Gods.

This letter shall find you, I know, on the eve of glorious battle. The Slayer is honored by your efforts, and he has sent portents of appreciation to us. One such sign of his favor has reared its head only recently; I am sure you will recognize the circumstances.

A pack of filthy, rutting, blasphemous infidels known commonly as the Kingdom of Socal8 has committed most grievous offenses against our old brothers-in-arms, the most honored Borman Empire. You will respond, ‘What of our war? These Succession Wars will not be forgotten.’ Indeed, none of us suggests this; for though the toll of this strife is heavy, we of the Empire will pay as will always have. Let us not forget that it is the law that we should contend in this manner, that the High Lord shall have the Iron Crown who is strong enough to take it.

No, it will not be the priesthood to forget our ancient traditions. But the College of Priests also hears the clamor of battle resounding across the sea. Borman is at war, and it would be a terrible mark of dishonor if we were to let them fight alone because we were consumed by internal war. These filthy heathens of Socal8 are devils, and will use any means they can to hamper the glorious warriors of Borman, without the slightest consideration of honor, of virtus itself.

Forget not, sons of Typhon, that the world is ours, given us by the gods! Are we not the chosen people of those great Lords? The land that Socal8 has stolen and raped cries out for vengeance; are the ears of the Imperium so filled with strife that they are deaf to this cry? We of the priesthood think otherwise! Will we let our brothers fight alone? Will we let infidel cowards take root and spread their evil seed? Or will we act as Kregaians, as men of honor and faith? The call goes out; will Kregaia answer? The College of Priests, this very day, has called for truce in the Succession Wars, in the name of the gods. We shall turn our great war machine against the foreigner, against the heathen, and we shall slaughter him wherever we find him! We shall have a triumph to rival Czardas, and the legend of our victory shall be a tale of terror to infidels everywhere! Unite, if only for a little while, and our triumph shall be infinite; forward to war, servants of the gods, and we shall conquer, now and forever!

Signed this day by the hand of

His Excellency, Pontifex Maximus Cyrius of clan Vua’kre

***

Sacred Emperor Lucifer stood as the members of High Command entered, taking their accustomed seats around the large conference table that formed the centerpiece of this briefing room. Glancing around the table, the god-king absorbed their body language. Some of them were relaxed, others tense, others plainly confused about being here at all. And the most remarkable thing of all was the five men who walked in as if they owned the place, in ceremonial dress as requested, armor over their robes of office.

These were the High Lords, the most powerful men in the Empire but for Lucifer himself, and they were waging war against each other to prove their power and their right to sit upon the Iron Throne. Lucifer’s mad eyes glowed to see them all in one place...Ishamael, Avaru, Rahvin, Jahvan, and Asmodeus. The last had personally killed Lucifer’s son, earning him the Sacred Emperor’s hatred; not out of sentimentality, but out of rage at the dishonor that the deed had inflicted on him. Rahvin alone had not seceded from the Imperium; the others were the god-king’s enemies, but even the Sacred Emperor would be prudent not to break the peace that had been called; the truce was the will of the gods, which was not for mortals to defy. Even the Sacred Emperor, divine as he was, was strongly recommended not to break the gods’ truce.

Borman. Borman knows how to fight; we do as well. We will show them. The blood of the infidel will flow, flow softly and swiftly like quicksilver across the land and the sea. Fools. Filthy, blaspheming, sodomite fools. Borman...HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! The Deceiver laughs with me...doesn’t he. Does he? Ah...listen to the demons hunting, hunting for me; I am beyond them. Come closer, servants of madness. I will teach you all you need to know. Dance with me.

Lucifer shook his head, the madness fading from his eyes. These moments of lucidity were becoming less and less frequent...but he had to concentrate. There was a war on, after all. “Gentlemen.” The voice was clipped and oiled, precise, and covered the jagged steel of Lucifer’s soul with velvet. “All glory to the gods, who have brought us here; and glory to the priests, who have divined their will and shown it to mortals. Here we are, as we have been summoned.

“You know why we are here; our ally, the Borman Empire, is going to war, and we are determined to fight at our ally’s side. To that purpose, we are under holy truce. The one who breaks it shall be damned forever to the deepest pits of the Ninth Hell. Now, gentlemen, the Kingdom of Socal8.” He picked up a telescopic pointer and indicated a map of the nation on a projector screen. “Here it is. We know very little about it; I have instructed the Intelligence Division to put together as comprehensive a report as possible,” he said, glancing at Lucius Kressh, Head of the Intelligence Division, “and I expect to have it soon. Our tactics will be variants on those used by High Lord Rahvin in Czardas; you know what that entails. For now, however, we are satisfied with planning the initial landing. You will detach units from your various forces and use them to form the invasion force. The enemy is small; a little will go a long way, and the Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations may intervene. They are significantly more powerful, and we must reserve the bulk of our strength for dealing with them. Now, if you will report on the status of your forces..?”

OOC: By the way, the separate italics part is Lucifer’s thoughts. I’ve started putting them in during the Succession Wars thread. He’s quite mad :). Also, is there a map of Socal8 that I can use? I can’t really start fighting unless I know what I’m up against in terms of geography, defenses, climate, neighboring nations...etc. Socal8, if you could list some of that stuff, that’d be great. Also, is the GASN going to intervene on Socal’s side?

As the ships approached the shoreline undoubtedly they didn't think to deal with a school of cod. Inside the fish controlled by a small micro computer was an EM tag that would be emitting a low scale tag.

The Dian Fleet that had been on the south west coast in wait although still far out of range, had been deploying it's dolphin drones and it's natural robotics testbed projects including it's cod taggers.

Robotic fish capable of acting like cod while mimicing the appearance of cod by visual and sonar. The cod swam into the area of the ships as marked via satallite and GPS tagging then responded by GPS logging and emissions.

The deep sea stealth UAV that dispatched them was now on it's way out to sea for an indefinate time or when the wrong ship approached it, where it would detonate as a water mine.

The dolphin drones were however armed with a little more punch.. once any of the targets was tagged the mouths would open and launch a small scale tactical nuke at the hull of the ship from close range. 40 of these dolphin drones were in active service at this time. In 7 different zones. Although their orders were not to return to the fleet instead their orders were to make to shore and dig into the sand and rock.

Along the the southern coast of Socal8 one flight of blackhole and one flight of the short range. Catapulted from the only breifly surfaced Xinghao the Blackholes and quasars set out like shadows and for the blackhole atleast like a ebonite flying dragon.. Soon after the Xinghoa set back underwater and made it's way out to blue water making well away from the North East Coast the invasion fleet was making from. Making sure to take precausions to make use of their expensive quiet running technologies.

Equipment and supplies were dispatched on the coast, with a company of SOF in seperate squads, with camo and thermal shielding set up. Digging in and covering up vehicles along the south central coast was the great Dian ground assault. The SOF that had been deployed although having some antiair with them were not prepared to take on an air assault by anything other then chopters or aged aircraft that were preyable from manportable SAM. The squads in general made for the forests, leaving a few behind in any old cabons, or houses along the coast. This was all done by inflatables on various ships in the fleet, that and for the vehciles, the water worthy craft. Also testing of some VSV or slims were used, as an opertional testing bed for some small craft. Mostly the inflatables were deflated stowed where in a building or in tree cover etc..

The Blackholes were to gain high alitude deploy their hypersonic missles on any aircraft designated as being hostile, then fly back to the Xinghoa at supersonic speeds well above mach 4. The deployment attacks occured at burst above mach 6.

The Quasars were to provide coastal defence to the silent landings of the SOF dispatched. Then return to some surface craft. That were set to leave the area.

In all a detachment of around 200 SOF had been dispatched along the southern coast under aircover.

Meanwhile at 3rd Army Headquarters Baron Christof set to say his partings.

"Lord Spencer I'll be making for the Airport so that I can get the required information first hand to the Fleet Commander, soon after he was set to depart back to the airbase with any VIP's that joined him and make back for one of the craft"

Meanwhile back on the Desmond, a tactical sub somewhere off the southwest coast of Socal8 --------
"We can't do much here, their fleets are far larger then our fleet, that alone may proove a logistical nightmare. They can't only carry so many ammo and supplies before they can't bomb Socal8 anymore. Why not just bring over a few hundred subs to block shipping to the warzone.. then the fleet will be forced to split up and protect it's resupply."

In the background Praetor this is your call, both me and Ieliak agree that we may be outnumbered in this operation. If our drone attacks don't have any effect, this will be nothing but a bloody and painful engagement. The repercussions could be massive. At best we can make the war non benificial to Bormon and his allies.

Very well I'll send a communique to Grand Admiral Xuan to make a mandatory order for the fleet to withdrawl back toward the Outerzone of the Dian Imperial Coast atleast that way we'll have coastal air defence to count on and any fleet that happens to be in the area. Legatus put the order out be sure to also send a secure transfer via satalite uplink back to the Casa informing them we have hit Doomsday and we may need to arm our emergency response system, and to start space operations on any satalite infrastructure of the Bormon Empire."

"Very well Praetor Sudrie."

Lord Spencer there is a message here from HRH King John II. Lord Spencer then began reading the message it stated:

Move all forces to the Sierra Nevada Mtns immediately. The 3rd Armored Div and your 6th Armored and 1st Infantry Divisions have set up positions on the east side of the mtns. The rest of your forces will set up positions facing south and west. The air force will most likely be withdrawn to either Bismark Island or ICCD. Good luck and god speed.

Lord Spencer immediately began moving his troops. The 4th and 8th Infantry Divisions would be ferried by helicopter the entire way. The rest of the Army would use the highways and roads. It shouldnt take long for them to reach the mtns.......

You can send your airforce to the Island chain around 700 KM off shore from the Dian Imperial Coast.. there is a coral reef island chain.. next to a larger island. there are some airbases in the coral island chain the coordinates would be transfered. From there we can take then by ship to an undisclosed location for safe keeping. Also any ships you have or goods.. i.e if you have a merchant marine it can find safe harbour. ICCD is not certain of the results however is fairly certain that the best we can hope for is a war of attrition and collatoral damage. We have special forces operating on your south western coast. It is likely all mass landing will be along that coast since it is closest to two of our major centers areas of movement.

We will wait for the birds here. Feel open to send anything else. We will take all refugees from you on the Imperial Island of Dorstchest.

The Arsenal ships unloaded with the missile bombardment. everyother missile loaded with either Ultra naplam, or Depleted Transphsion crystals.

"Hmm," said Admiral Fred Karls, "If this is anything like the first Gunkoku conflict, we will have to get ready for an attack by the enemy's air force. If we had more intelligence we'd know how much they send at us. Send up some fighters. Sweep Socal8's skies!" X-02 Wyverns from the Geofred carrier began to take off. One pilot directed his plane to the carrier's ramp and hit turned on his afterburner. His plane began to roll down the carrier deck, and he felt himself being pressed into his seat as his plane lifted off the ramp. He continued to acsend and at appx. 400km he felt a jolt as the outer wings swept inwards. It was for this reason the X-02 was known among its crew as Neo-Erusea's switchblade. The Wyverns turned and headed for the skies of Socal8.

The waiting F78s had been patrolling the skies attempting to find a fight with Socal8 aircraft, but obviously there would be none. Dismayed at the lack of action they saw the fighters returned to their carrier as strike fighters took off, equipped with munitions to take out air targets.

300 F78s took to the sky and began scrolling through targets their ARC/MSR-79 fire control computer provided. Utilizing the Borman Battle Net and the men back home using it the fighters divided up targets for attack including SAM sites, power stations, communication lines, and various other infrastructure buildings and installations.

As of yet no tanks or heavily armed installation presented themselves, so only AC-280 AMHARM (Anti-radar) missiles were used.

Sergei Romanus pushed his F78f forward at around mach 3. As he shot forward his ARC/MSR-79 got a lock on one of his targets, a power station 60 miles inland. Without hesitation he fired two AC-280 AMHARM missiles, one would have been sufficient; however he enjoyed large explosions.

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

As the strike fighters decimated Socal8s infrastructure Perditor-Class SSAN arsenal ships as well as certain frigates and cruisers readied themselves to open up with a wave of ATL-290 Mars II Intercontinental Cruise Missiles and if any hardened structures be found, the tactical nuclear ATL-75A Longbow. In addition to these missiles normal napalm cruise missiles were being readied to launch at the beach and further clear the way for the invading soldiers.

Admiral Georg Stekov wore the burns that covered the right side of his face like a medal, and save for a strip of leather that hid the empty socket where a piece of red hot shrapnel had torn his eye to ribbons, he did nothing to disguise his rather gruesome appearance. What remained of his face showed that he had once been a dashing, handsome man, but like so many others, the Yafor2 war had changed him drastically. His manner was still calm, polite, and intellectual, but he had adopted a certain frost to his manner that frightened those who had known him before.

He was still, however, a popular officer, and his resounding victory in the Inkanan Channel at the end of the war's first year had made him a hero and a household name. He had been decorated by the Emperor himself after the war, and offered the position of High Admiral of the Empire, but had declined in favor of resuming his command of the 1st Fleet. He was a gentleman, born to an old Sofia family, but despite the frequency with which he rubbed elbows with the most powerful men in Bornerifreudia, he felt most at home among his officers, on the bridge of his flagship, the 'Empire' class command dreadnaught Generia.

The first fleet that composed the Generian force of observation, with its full complement of 200 Generian ships of war and logistical vessels, had made way from Port Belgrade, the largest and most celebrated port in the Imperium, a week ago, and was now drawing up on the nation-turned-warzone that would soon become the Borman Empire's newest province.

Stekov admired the Bormans for what they really were: a nation of men at arms. They did not shy from a fight, and moreso, they did not lose. They shared the spirit of the Generians, though the two peoples were divided by subtler traits. Both prided themselves on steadfast loyalty, and he saw this as the reason for his presence in the theatre at all. Of course, officially, he was simply there to observe, but he was not a stupid man, and neither was Lord Varus. There were other factors at play in this war, other parties involved against the Borman Empire. Generia could smell this a mile away. It was a highly visible conflict, and the eyes of the world were upon everyone involved. It was only to be expected that someone would want to stick their greasy fingers into the center.

"Admiral, my men are ready."

He whirled to find himself facing a younger man, slightly less battle scarred, but with eyes that betrayed him as a man of experience. He wore the mark of a Colonel on the right shoulder of a jet black uniform, above an insignia that Stekov had not seen in a very long time: the mark of the Imperial Black Guard.

"You've briefed them on the operation?"

"Of course."

Stekov nodded.

"I'll send word to Admiral Kennedy. You'll be put in touch with allied forces on the ground."

The second man offered a starch salute.

On the deck, the engines of dozens of VTOL transport aircraft were roaring to life as Generian sailors and special forces personnel scrambled about, preparing to deploy to the distant, embattled shoreline. Beyond the flagship, over several square miles, the Generian fleet stretched out across the glittering waves.

But in the mean time the soldiers already on the ground split into two groups. One was incahrge of advancing the other , securing to perimeter.
H.A.E.S.B's* where deployed and activated. The naval forces secured two shipping lanes to and from the nation.

The Other group began to move deeper into the nation coming across a small town. The soldiers checked and ready to take it over and asimilate its population....

The day is upon us, we shall not let any of our allies be destroyed with us standing by. We shall go down together.

Hundreds of Millions of Dians witnessed the Emperors speech on ESTV. The reality that was upon them was one that they hadn't faced in over 50 years. Once again the lives of the entire empire was at risk of madmen on mad missions, heartless soulless and lacking intelligence enough to relize their error.

Fleet 3 5 6 7 9 on the east coast and 11 12 on the Xian Tunnel Exit.
Mobile the entire west air wing.

On that note the first of the sorties and fleet were headed out. Skeleton crews were set out knowing that the casualty rate could be huge. Bombers bombed a variety of mines from high alititute escorted by the CX jets.. mines attempting to stop any landing. ICCD had decided that any landing party would be host to massive arial boming campaigns.

The day was not over, however the end of the week was fast approaching.


OOC: if posible respond on what the result of the attack on the borman fleet was from page two. Also can you say what coast you are landing on. My fleets will be coming from the west and south west. It takes around 3 days for them to reach the coast. The forces I have in place will resist any troop movements in the south east. Also they have set up some road obsticals and if there are any mass concentrations then they will use the tactical nukes that are large size mortars. They will stick to forests and use the tunnels and thermal sheilding as much as posible. Setting up sensors and booby traps, and attempting to coordinate the local populace to resist the invaders before moving on to other communities. Organizing and training them to properly attack and set booby traps where required. There are around 200 elite SOF equivlent or more to SAS with some equipment if any of the MCT are discovered then there will be a battle. MCTS are super heavy tanks they are dug in though. They have long range sensors and a long range 140+mm cannon so if they do have a patrol heading near them they may get a chance to fire on it. So if you are in the south.. we can play it out.

Official Imperial Statement:

We denounce the hypocrisy and stupidity of Demon 666.

We ask you, along with any other civilized nation, what they would do if they recieved messages from a hostile government threatening your nation, and telling of plans to committ terrorists attacks on your people and military installations. Would you condemn them, place sanctions? What would you do if you found these terrorists within your nation and captured a spy working for their government? Would you still consider standing idly by and option, or would you do something about it?
While there is no doubt that severe measures should be taken, Socal8 does not pose a significant security to the Bormann Empire. As a tiny nation, it could not invade or destroy your land without risking significant harm.
At any rate, mere insults is not a justification for a purely offensive war in any way whatsoever. We condemn the invasion wholeheartedly and reaffirm our support for the free peoples of Socal8.

The time is now for the wraith of the Dominion to strike the island nation. Blood was blood, it not care to the Count. Blood would spill by Dominionite bombs. The Count had fifty B-2 Spirit multi-role bombers fueled and armed as soon as he send a message to his good hunting buddy, Emperor Bhalk, early in all of this.

Well, those bombers were launched from the Dominion airbases. These bombers were loaded with 36 CBU-87/B Combined Effects Munitions each. The CBU-87 is a 1,000-pound, Combined Effects Munition (CEM) for attacking soft target areas with detonating bomblets. And their targets, Socal8’s coastal defenses. Dominion satellites, which were move into the are at the start, had pin pointed the Socal8’s coastal defenses. The bombers would target the coastal defenses in south, to open up for the Borman Empire and the other forces.

Hours passed, long way to fly to bomb somebody but the bombers were nearing the edge of Socal8’s airspace. The bombers, hiding under the Radar and in the dark skies, moved closer to the island. Closer to strike on the force on the beaches. In range, they start dropping their bombs. Their deadly payload. Coastal guns, SAM sites, whatever was on the beach was now being bombed.

OOC: I'm not sure it will get to that point. The troops I have defending Socal 8 arn't very mobile.. they would only be in that area as that is where their supplies are centered without resupply by airdrop. I'm getting quesy on the roleplayability of this though.. I think you guys are just looking for a quick mindless cakewalk so I may just say I was never involved because it is unroleplayable because the thing is generally wanked out or will be very quickly. If I were roleplaying I would bomb and send air power.. as well as largely sub fleets to stop your resupply and attack weak points of fleets.. this seems to mindless but if I'm mistaken correct me. Also roleplaying with transylvania is difficult for me because we can't communicate effectively with one another. Anyway if intersted in roleplaying this by all means we can have seperate offshoots. but those b2 are already 25 years old.. and can only operate effectively on a perfect day. My air craft would eat them up.. as they are more effective then f35's

OOC: Yeah, it's not going to go so well if it's just Socal8. Which is exactly why you should stay around. And I kind of hope the GASN gets involved, because then it might actually be an even fight. But as far as I'm concerned, it's up to Borman and Socal about that, because it's their thread. So they'll have to agree about that.
The Warmaster
21-08-2006, 02:00
OOC: As you’ll see below, I am assuming that Socal8 is exactly like Great Britain in all respects. I hope this is right.

IC: The messenger came into the room quietly, and handed a file to Lucifer as the High Lords were about to begin their report on the forces available to them. Smiling as he read the contents, Lucifer withdrew a flash drive from among the papers and placed it into a hard drive in the corner. Pulling up a menu of images, he opened the first one, showing a map of the Kingdom of Socal8.

“Gentlemen, as you can see, we now have the information we need to finalize our plans. My thanks to the Intelligence Division for this. This shows both the geography of the Kingdom, as well as some other information we will need. As you can see, the northern half is mountainous, and its coast is dotted with islands. Socal’s navy cannot hope to stop us, but if the GASN intervenes, being caught in the straits would be disastrous. Furthermore, I do not want our supply lines stretching through mountains that Socal’s troops know like the back of their hands. It would be begging for trouble. No, we will land and make our initial gains in a flat area bordering the open sea. This leaves two options: the eastern fens, or the south coast. My preference is the south, as it is very close to the capital. We will have to contact the Borman Empire and see if they want to be the first to enter London, that sort of thing. Anyway, that area is crossed by rivers. Some of them may be easily crossed by bridgelayers, but the Thames is the biggest river in the Kingdom, and if the infidels destroy the bridges over it, we will encounter trouble. Therefore, we will have to move quickly, using close air support and mobile armor. Luckily, Satellite Intelligence does not see any sign of major defenses on the southern coast. In short, gentlemen, I expect quick progress, large gains, and captives. You know what to do regarding that. After the campaign, unless our allies are in the northern highlands, we can firebomb them. I don’t want any insurgents hiding in there. The commander of the naval force will be High Admiral Anor; the commander of ground forces will be High Lord Ishamael. I think that concludes our business here, gentlemen... if there is nothing else, you are dismissed.”

***

Within twenty-four hours of the finalization of the plans to invade Socal8, closely supervised by the Sacred Emperor himself, the forces involved were ready to sail. Eight full Legions of troops, thousands of tanks...this was a powerful force indeed, and if trouble developed, much more had been prepared as reinforcements. High Admiral Anor watched from the bridge of the flagship Deathmask as the ships took on supplies at an unbelievable pace. It seemed everyone was eager to fight foreigners instead of butchering their countrymen. Drums of oil, crates of ammunition, huge tanks of water, prefabricated buildings, and countless other necessities of an army were loaded onto transports in vast quantities. Thousands of Legionaries marched in perfect formation into the bellies of their troop carriers as tanks and artillery were driven in through other hatches. At the pace of supply, the process was soon done, and the fleet was sent out with little ceremony. At over two thousand vessels total, the fleet was a sight to impress anyone and strike fear into enemies’s hearts.

In another few hours, they were within radar range of the Isles of Scilly, a group of islands off the southwest coast of Socal8. Anor watched from the bridge as his fleet ploughed through the water, the gray seas churning from the waves, broken by the bows of the Imperial ships. Striding over to the radar operators, Anor inquired, “Everything as expected, Lieutenants?” One of them turned and replied, “Admiral, we have contacts at extreme range. Nationality unknown; not Borman, not Socal, but some nation we haven’t had any contact with, sir. Most likely warships. A Class C presence in general, Admiral, with contacts in the air. Our early-warning aircraft are standing by for orders, sir.”

Anor considered. The gods alone knew who the contacts were. It was safest to send them a message first; it would be very unpleasant if the Imperial ships were to fire on their own allies. However, if they were allies of Socal, they had to be crushed quickly. He ordered a message wired to them, and in the meantime, the fleet would ready itself. Minesweepers would begin their patrols, the carriers would scramble their aircraft, guns would be loaded and missiles prepared. The entire armada veered onto an intercept course with the distant fleet. They had five minutes before all hell broke loose.

OFFICIAL MILITARY COMMUNIQUE

To unknown fleet:

We have you on our displays and request immediate confirmation that you are allies of the Borman Empire. You have five minutes to respond before our fleet opens fire in the interests of protecting Imperial security. Be aware that a state of war exists between the Imperium and Socal8 and her allies, and thus if you do not affirm yourselves to be allies of the Borman Empire, you will be destroyed. We expect your reply promptly.

High Admiral Ludo Anor

OFFICIAL DIPLOMATIC COMMUNIQUE

To Chancellor Licinius

Excellent. We have sent our fleet to the southern coast of Socal8, and will begin our attack very soon. It seems there are few fortifications in this region, a fatal mistake on the part of our enemies. Before we launch our attack, the Sacred Emperor has instructed me to ask you: will the Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations intervene on behalf of Socal8? Or, for that matter, will any other nations? We must know this for the proper conduction of the war. Also, we request that you inform us of your invasion plans and those of any other allies; we must keep our various fronts coordinated, after all. As always, it is our pleasure to fight alongside Borman. We await your reply. Blood and Honor.

High Admiral Ludo Anor

OOC: Hey, ICCD, let’s not use tactical nukes. For starters, they are just not fun, because they allow anyone to wipe out a whole army. Secondly, if you do, my government would simply launch our nukes, and both you and Socal would cease to exist, regardless of any missile shield you have. There are ways of getting around them. So nukes would ruin this thread, and I do not want that. Also, my fleets are also coming in from the southwest; as you can see from above, they will no doubt encounter each other. Can you tell me the size and ship types of your fleet? Here are mine.

can't find the other OCC thread.. I think it may spawn off.

If that is the case then you will proply initially box in.. most of it is submersed. however there are a number of low cross section frigates however it is more so southwest, the fleet would be moving east then north. Does warmasters have a landmass between east imperial coast.. around 2000 km from the Socal Coast as incorporated? or was it a roving fleet as the initial fleet was dispatched when Socal First requested aid.. the second fleet was dispatched when it was learned that Bormon was launching an actual invasion.

Not sure on the timing.. but for the other story elements to fit I would have to be there before you.. however you may have showed up before I started pulling out if you are in the southwest.. the original fleet was set retreat after the first drop off and evacuation.. then meet up with a second wholey submersed strike fleet.

Meanwhile because of the large number of foreign forces involved and Socal8 taking the hit.. the entire west imperial coast flee is being called up to reinforce the area. The service fleets are quite large imploying a number of subs and surface craft. ICCD doesn't use "cruiser or battleship" class ships instead it uses a missle corvette or friagate that serves as a multirole patrol craft, mostly for brown water, however it serves as an antimissleantiaircraftantiship launch bad as well as a unit tranfer and minesweeping and placement duties, also supply ships. The subs used are generally transport subs and strike subs.. and the core dian navy unit the hao xing Long or dragon star class submersible carriers. there are also surface medium size VTOL carriers in the fleet each fleet is usually
1 Dragon Star
2 or more surface medium carriers
10 or more frigates
10-20 strike subs
5-10 transport subs

dragon stars carry 40 combat aircraft a few UAV's (both surface and sea based a number of specialty technologies including the neodolphins and other fish drones, with bio coating)

the medium aircraft carriers carry around 10 VTOL aircraft usually a mix of B&B helicopters or CX model aircraft. The Medium Carriers may be see as "missle carriers" as well as they are beefed up frigates (larger)

each frigate can accomodate 1 VTOL craft.. usually rescue helicopters but sometimes a VTOL aircraft is assigned instead,usually inteceptors not bombers as they are too large to land on the frigates..

note that a bomber may replace an 2 interceptors for storage capacity.
Larger bombers/cargos take up 4 or more spaces and can only land on the surface of the Dragon Stars, however it is seen as "emergency purposes only"

ICCD has a number of main aircraft
B&B attack/and operations helicopters
transport tiltrotors

a short range interceptor these things can go up fast.. have a capacity for a number of quick bursts above mach 6 and can accomodate hypersonic missles or regular missles. hypersonic missles require mach 6+ for deployment (the reason for the detonation burst drive) (these are kept quite cheap as far as equipment and airframe, they can take the ware but tend to be the most abundant of all aircraft used for carrier support and homegaurd defence and air training.)

a long range VTOL fighter/escort (doesn't include stealth technologies in general but has radiowave/radar reduction and sound reduction during low speed operation (expensive but generally 4 of these exist for every largescale bomber (reddwarfs)

a hightech VTOL stealth inteceptor (usually drone operated this thing can hold together) (highly expensive, around 2/3rd the cost of the blackhole)

a multirole VTOL stealth fighter/bomber/intel a mishmass approach the aircraft is large and uses a variety of technologies... not designed for dog fighting but can take a role as a AtoA fighter actual dogfighting not advised due to specific critical weakpoints during high risk manovers, these can coast on their own wake (issues highly expensive)

a largescale bomber (usuall flys with with airsupport) more of a modern B1 design, these can coast on their own wake (around 50 of these can be built for every blackhole, material cost production and matienance wise)
====
in space
drop ship operators
operation space craft including iondrive craft
research craft


More informatin is available on request but I thought I would include some basic information.. for the blackhole and quasar you can do a search either for blackhole and quasar you can see this thread.. note though it is dated.. .and there have been some modification in later models.

The 'Supernovas' and 'Redwarfs' are much the same but thier engines arn't as powerful, and they don't have the same shell or computers.. i.e. they are slightly reduced models in way of stealth... actually the arn't stealth they tend to be based on countermeasures rather then operational stealth, for the CX-3(short range interceptor) and CX-4 (midrange fighter/escort) and CB-1 (mass bomber)
http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=465540

the quasar and blackhole projects have been put on a backburner due to high production cost and low export interest. however they are still the standard aircraft for the dragon stars.. but defence has been handed over to the CX-3 and CX-4

I have more info as required.

once we figure out travel times I think the timeline should fit in.. but atleast from my standpoint I would have to be there before warmasters fleet go there .. I was assuming that there were fleets coming to the west and north
west of Socal 8 and that I would be coming from the Southwest to the bottom of the channel zone. south of bristol essex or whatever it is (pardon my british geography if I am off) Although if you fleet was coming we'd attempt evasive manovers around where the subs are suppose to be along the southern shore.. it would be slowly peeling back when the shore landings were finished (I don't know if the france landmass is there if it isn't then we wouldn't attempt the scotland landing .. if it is I may send some frigates up drop off more supplies then part ... although all ships are mostlikly headed back out to sea. they all have some form of stealth/silent running or reduced signature. It is posible to spot them especially the medium carriers but they would be out quite abit.. and I doubt they would be highlighted by any satlite observance simply because they arn't near coast, it would be like spotting a needle in a haystack. Of course if Bormans fleet is a wholey stealth fleet and it wouldn't make sense to spot any behemoth battleships or carriers etc.. then I can understand how I woulnd't be able to find them, but otherwise I don't think it would be a difficult task.. anyway long response.

Response to Communique.

We were unaware of your war status. This fleet was on state operations in the area and upon learning of the Bormon Empire Fleet in the area was leaving the potential war zone. Any attack on our neutral ships will be seen as an act of war and will meet full martial response. We will be exiting the war zone through the south.



OOC:
If you are using such a large fleet honestly I'd have to nuke it, especially if it was concentrated. You behemoth ships are generally only suceptable to nukes becaue they are so wanked out. We wouldn't cease to exist you would choose to ignore it, because your swarm tactics are generally only vunreble to nukes. Also depending on how much money and military spending you have we have a fair chance on defending against a nuclear assualt, we have our own nuclear deterent. Although relatively small 1 billion we have 30% military spending which should be adequette for a reasonable nuclear defence. However if you mass a fleet you are asking to be nukes. Can you put the operational cost of your fleet in realistic terms.. etc. just for curiosity sake.

The fleet leaves the zone.. most of it is underwater, and if in the case that the surface fleet is attacked we will launch a chain of highgrade detonations with torpedo missle and air strikes. Although I honestly don't see how you could have showed up with that fleet faster then it took my fleet to offload and and have a 10 minute discussion with an officer. I hardly see how your fleet would in whole be invisible and if it was blocking the area off I would have responded differently in way of getting more bombers and mining the path to the troops except where it was amible.. if france isn't there and we saw a fleet of that size we would withdrawl to the west not the southeast straight into it. Anyway it is easiest just to say my fleet was leaving the area before you arrive since it was there before you set out.. and there was only a small time frame between when bormon was detected and when they left. If that doesn't seem right that is fine.. however realistically it would place you closer to me then Socal8 so given a few hours it would place you at 30 knots at around 150 km from Socal8 meaning you border right next to them.
If that makes sense then it changes the map and unless you are a tiny island it would change my idea of "direct open water" for around 2000 KM to Socal8. Thus the issue of not having a map. As I had in mind open water enroute not giant land mass with a fleet of 3000 or so ships.. if ya dig.

p.s. why attack when you can sink the island with weight on the water?

From: Admiral Georg Stekov, Generian 1st FO Fleet, Commanding

In response to your request for all allied nations operating in this theatre to ensure that their emblems are understood by other members of the coalition:

The Generian flag is being used as an emblem and decal for Generian naval, air, and ground forces operating in the theatre.

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

Official Imperial Response:

We can not and will not guarantee the safety of these engineers. These men come armed and as such will be designated combatants. Additionally, if there is any report of attack by these men upon allied soldiers we shall declare war upon the nation of Demon 666.

Your engineers may be allowed entrance after the conflict, if they aren't already dead.

Bahk']Statement from Rupert Steinbahk III:
His highness is deeply saddened by the growing conflict between Socal8 and the Borman Empire. We agree fully with the statement made by Tenarius of Demon 666 and are also willing to provide Socal8 with non military aid. We would hope that the Leaders of the Borman Empire would show some compassion and understanding when dealing with the juvenile nation of Socal8.

The RMS Housatonic and several escort vessels have been dispatched to the area and will arrive in less than two days. Housatonic will provide food, water, and medical aid to the citizens of socal8.

While there is no doubt that severe measures should be taken, Socal8 does not pose a significant security to the Bormann Empire. As a tiny nation, it could not invade or destroy your land without risking significant harm.
At any rate, mere insults is not a justification for a purely offensive war in any way whatsoever. We condemn the invasion wholeheartedly and reaffirm our support for the free peoples of Socal8.

Official Imperial Statement:

As both a member of the Bornerifreudic Empire and the Borman Empire’s oldest ally, we of the Generic Empire demand that the nation of Bahk call its vessels back immediately and that the nation of Demon 666 comply with the Borman Government’s earlier request that it immediately remove all of its personnel from the region. We agree with the Borman Government’s logical conclusion that if the party in question is armed and aiding the enemy in any way, then they are to be considered enemies, and treated as such no matter what their country of origin considers them. Should either nation in question insert personnel into the combat zone with the intention of aiding the citizens, government, or military of the rogue state of Socal8 in any way, or should it be deemed that any seagoing vessel or aircraft originating from either of these nations have the intention of doing such, they will be considered hostile forces, and will be destroyed. This is the first and final warning the Generian government shall give on the matter.

There as already background to what was occurring.. so your statement isn't consistent.

OOC: Really, my man, my post would have been I seen the message about bombing. So...it did happen before everything else. But before you cry godmode, I will edit so I bomb in the right time.

OOC: I'm not sure it will get to that point. The troops I have defending Socal 8 aren’t very mobile.. they would only be in that area as that is where their supplies are centered without resupply by airdrop. I'm getting quesy on the role-playability of this though.. I think you guys are just looking for a quick mindless cakewalk so I may just say I was never involved because it is unroleplayable because the thing is generally wanked out or will be very quickly.

OOC: Wanked out. Your tactical nuke carrying dolphins are wanked out.

OOC: Also roleplaying with Transylvania is difficult for me because we can't communicate effectively with one another. Anyway if interested in roleplaying this by all means we can have separate offshoots. But those B-2 are already 25 years old. And can only operate effectively on a perfect day. My air craft would eat them up.. as they are more effective then f35's

OOC: Me and you don’t get along for the fact that you use over 10% of your pop in your armed forces. Or you did?

Who told you that B-2 can only operate effectively on a prefect day? They can operate at night, too. And yes, your fighters could eat up a bomber any day because they are fighters. Your mach 6 fighters are FT sounding to me

And don’t use nukes, they make RP suck.

No nation has ever invaded Borman, some have tried; none have succeeded. But open war is not where Socal8’s intentions laid. We can beat them on the battlefield every time, and they know that. Hence they threatened, and put in action, plans to hit us with what we could not stop; terrorist actions. Captured terrorists within our nation reveal that the threats (insults being merely bad political conduct) were real and knowing terrorist nations, we know that they will continue until they strike a blow, and ever more after that.

OFFICIAL DIPLOMATIC COMMUNIQUE

To Chancellor Licinius

Excellent. We have sent our fleet to the southern coast of Socal8, and will begin our attack very soon. It seems there are few fortifications in this region, a fatal mistake on the part of our enemies. Before we launch our attack, the Sacred Emperor has instructed me to ask you: will the Global Alliance of Sovereign Nations intervene on behalf of Socal8? Or, for that matter, will any other nations? We must know this for the proper conduction of the war. Also, we request that you inform us of your invasion plans and those of any other allies; we must keep our various fronts coordinated, after all. As always, it is our pleasure to fight alongside Borman. We await your reply. Blood and Honor.

First and foremost, the GASN have declared that their body is not in support of Socal8; and if his membership is ratified that member nations may support him if they wish. There is another small nation assisting Socal8, but as of yet other than fleet deployment we know of no assistance rendered. Two other nations are giving diplomatic support, and any nation willing to aid a terrorist state is no doubt an enemy of the peace and most likely will declare themselves an enemy of the righteous coalition; so eyes should be kept on them.

As you read this Borman soldiers will be landing on the north of the nation and moving in a southern direction. Soon after another army will be landing on and occupying the large isle to the West, whereafter they will most likely meet up with the army from the North. Three more fleets with two armies are readying for a southern invasion, if you wish to land in conjunction we can basically envelop all of southern Socal8 and begin a naval blockade.

Borman Empire

As the guns of the ships began to fall silent the northern coastline of Socal8 was left nothing but a singing wreck. Any and all structures which might have prevented Borman entry were gone, a crumble of brick and the smell of explosions the only remainder. Satellite information had revealed that all visible units of the Socal8 military had pulled back to the capital and Sierra Nevada Mountains. As such little to no resistance was expected up until the Sierra Nevada Mountains, maybe just a gung-ho police officer or armed citizen here and there.

The Imperivm-class invasion dreadnaughts got as close as they could to the shore, this being the first time in history they need not hold fire upon defensive forces. An eerie silence surrounded the picture, the men were tensed and ready for combat, expecting an ambush or surprise attack; but none would come.

APG-14 transports noiselessly exited the bellies of the invasion dreadnaughts and made their way to the shore, spiked doors crashing down into the sand and securing a hold. As the men exited the transports, guns at the ready, comments were heard such as “So this is the color of sand?” “I don’t recognize it without all the blood and bodies coating it!” and “Well, that was an easy foothold to gain.”

After most of the men unloaded officers organized them and began to send mechanized divisions, supported by soldiers, south in the nation. As they slowly crawled forward, taking anything of value which hadn’t been destroyed in the early assault, logistical crews quickly set to work behind them. Supplies were unloaded with a haste rarely seen by anyone with such a low salary, but the motivation that the faster they finished the sooner they were allowed to loot always compelled Borman logistical crews to speedy work. As a number of men worked on unloading the gargantuan amount of supplies others working on assembling a quick beach HQ. Not great work was put into the task because they knew that within 24 hours a building would be occupied with the HQ equipment as ground was quickly covered.
Borman Empire
21-08-2006, 17:20
On the Northern coast Imperial command realized that the soldiers would be sweeping down with such speed and make progress so hastily that there would not be time enough to construct rail lines to support the logistical train. As such GI-1 APCs were being released onto the beach and stuffed full of supplies, then sent South to reach the advancing line and provide supplies. Seeing as there were no firefights going on, no more weapons or munitions needed to be packed; allowing more room for food to come.

As these made their way south some battalions began locating subway entrances and scouting out subway tunnels, if they were able to; these could be used to bring supplies to the front. And as they did this, thought about the beach HQ were confirmed as supplies were packed aboard another GI-1 and sent south near the front of the line to set up HQ.

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

The Sixth fleet slowly approached the western isle from the southwest. Strike fighters took off like they had in the northern invasion, AC-280 AMHARM missiles choking the sky, carrying a payload of death and destruction for their targets. In a mere matter of minutes the aircraft had done their job and returned to the carriers to allow a barrage of missiles from the ships.

The same scene as the northern invasion were painted, only this time the soldiers landed fast and hard, moving off almost instantly; knowing they were here mainly to make a quick sweep and plant a flag. Here too, GI-1 transports were loaded with supplies and sent along to keep the pace going and occupy the isle quickly.

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

The seventh, eighth, and ninth fleets were approaching Southern Socal8. As they ships sped forward the bridges were alight with a fury of work. Men ran back and forth as plans were sent back and forth between ships; they had nearly completed planning the coordinated assault upon Socal8’s southern shore. As they approached from more of a western position they took a swing down and then back up, breaking off into their three respective fleets. The sixth fleet had begun forming a blockade of the western and southern coast of the western isle; the seventh then met the sixth fleet and finished off the southern coast of the western isle then began to spread out covering the channel between the two islands and working down. The eighth and ninth fleets worked together to create a very thick cover of the southern coast, as they were about to begin landing soldiers.

F78s went into the air and choked the air with AC-280 AMHARM missiles. They screamed by this way and that, always followed by explosions and smoke. The sky was thick with planes and missiles as what air wasn’t filled with them quickly had smoke and fire fill it up.

If there will be peace talks, they will be held in Azazia; however we thank you for the offer. Furthermore, there will most likely not be peace talks. This war will continue untill this terrorist fraudulent government is out of power.

The only option is to stop the nation which is supporting the terrorists so as to stop the terrorists.

We condemn your stupidity and inability to recognize reason and logic.

While I understand your intentions, I must still condemn them. It would be more appropriate to go along diplomatic venues than to engage in a war of destruction.
At any rate, from what my intelligence reports tell me, this is a war of conquest, which is no way acceptable to mere terrorists.





Any and all ships in the region not of allied nations or militaries will be seen as those of the enemies. Borman Empire can not and will not guarantee their safety from any of the allied naval guns. The friend of my enemy is my enemy.
I would like to observe that my Engineering Corps and 1,000 Imperial Soldiers have already arrived. They are at work providing aid.
Since I cannot send ships to get them out, it may seem that war is inevitable. If so, and you call on your brave little pals, may you realize that it will be a war of agression on your part.
I am willing to conduct diplomatic talks.

((OOC: Demon 666, typically you RP the landing of your forces, and their deployment. The fact that they were already there threw a few of us off a bit, but it’s not that big a deal at the moment. I need your fleet’s position in relation to the Socal8 coastline, if you please. Thanks.))

Official Imperial Statement:

The Empire has made very clear that any nations involved in aiding the rogue state of Socal8 are to be considered enemies of Bornerifreudia and treated as such. The nations of Bhak and Demon 666 have repeatedly, and vocally disregarded these warnings, as well as those coming from the Borman government, which were equally explicit. As such, all personnel operating under the direction and standard of either nation are hereby to be regarded as enemy combatants by Generian forces operating in the region, and will be destroyed.

You were warned.

Official Imperial Communique

To: Admiral Georg Stekov, 1st Generian FO Fleet, Commanding
From: Lord Varus Tiberius Alexei

Recent developments on an official diplomatic level have forced the Imperial Government to change the nature of your force’s duties in the Socal8 theatre. Due to the refusal of the governments of Demon 666 and Bhak to obey the demands of the Borman and Generian authorities to withdraw their forces immediately from the region, any and all personnel operating under their standard and any ships flying these nations’ flags are to be considered hostile, and terminated with extreme prejudice. Your force’s status has been changed from observational to active combat as of the sending of this message, and an additional infantry force of 250,000 is being prepared for deployment to the theatre as we speak.

Good luck Admiral. We are certain that you will serve the Empire well.

Generian 1st Fleet Positions, Off the northwestern coast of Socal8

The sound of sirens rang out across the glistening blue waters, as the decks of the three Generian “Dominion” class super-carriers, and seven additional “Iliev” class heavy carriers exploded with activity. GIF-1 air superiority fighters took to the skies in force, joining those already in the air, and were followed by GIF-77N carrier based strike aircraft and the new model GIF-11N naval bomber, equipped with the deadly “Caesar” anti-shipping missile that had become notorious after making mincemeat of a Jarridian fleet off the coast of Borman.

Under heavy fighter escort, the first wave of 50 GIF-11Ns set their sights on the Demon 666 fleet, painted by allied radar off the coast of the helpless, embattled nation. En masse, the aircraft deployed their payload, 22 Caesar missiles from the hardpoints on each of the Generian aircraft.

Each unit of the payload of 1100 would be assisted by its solid fuel rocket engine to a cruising speed of mach 3, until it was within 80 miles of its target, at which time the rocket stage would detach, while the missile-turned-torpedo would fall into the water. Using passive sonar to detect the enemy fleet’s sound emissions, the torpedo would set a course for its target, cruising silently with the help of a magneto-hydrodynamic engine to within eight miles of its target, at which point the active sonar would engage, and the supercavitating engine would kick in, taking the unit to a speed of 100 knots for a final attack on the target.

A secondwave of 75 GIF-11Ns made way for the Bhak fleet, approaching the coastline, and initiated a similar attack utilizing the same munitions as before, while the GIF-77N strike fighters, under fighter escort from GIF-1s, moved towards the coast, and the reported landing and operating positions of the Demon 666 engineers.

We understand the need to disarm the regime in control of Socal8 but the average citizen should not have to suffer because of their governments reckless decisions.

We will reach the North West coast of Socal8 in two hours and at that time I will dispatch RNH-41 Seahawk Helicopters to deliver medical and other relief supplies. I sincerely hope that you and your allies do not interfere with our relief efforts.

The Empire can be left only dazed and confused as to what you imply by “Complete disregard for the populace of Socal8.” We are also left confused when you say we have acted “infantile.” We have done what any civilized, intelligent nation would have done when presented with a terrorist threat. We have not exacted unwarranted casualties upon civilians, the only ones dying at Borman munitions so far being those accidentally consumed in the bombardment of military installation on Socal8 coastlines and those violently resisting Borman soldiers. The average citizen is not suffering because of their government’s reckless decisions.

First we would like to pose the question of why your humanitarian mission is coming heavily armed with a complement of twenty two thousand soldiers?
However, you have been warned what will happen if your forces enter the theatre, and as I’ve been informed, you’ve already been engaged. Any attacks by your ships upon allied naval, military, or aviary assets will be answered in full by Borman, and most likely, consequently other allied nations.

Official Imperial Response:

Apparently your nation is of the breed, which will not use common sense, the breed that will sit by and try to “talk” out differences with terrorist nations who obviously, being terrorist nations; will work to attack you during peace talks as they would never actually entertain the notion of peace. We have been in this position before, we have seen this position before; the enemy will work behind the scenes using the time presented by peace talks to set up more attacks. Peace talks and peace would only be silent approval and allow the cancer, which is terrorism to continue, spread, and grow.

At any rate, from what my intelligence tells me, you are a nation of incompetents who merely make up information and justification to try and prove your point after you’ve been beaten at your own game by facts and logic.

Your forces were warned not to enter the theatre as they would be, and would thus be recognized as, armed combatants and not of allied orientation; thereby earning the hostile banner. If found by Borman, and allied forces, your men will be engaged and will be defeated.

There is never a time or place for diplomatic talks with terrorist nations and the scum that support them.

The ships were on the move. The cool blue waters erupted in a shatter of surf and foam as ship bows cut a clear path like a hot knife through butter. The 2nd fleet had finished unloading all supplies necessary to supporting the northern invasion and now had the ability to prevent hostile forces from leaving the theatre, and would do so. Circling around from the north of Socal8 the ships would swing down and come from a northwestern direction and run headlong into the ships of the nation of Bahk. What was left of their fleet after a decimating round of Caesar missiles would then be sent to the bottom of the ocean by either another round of Caesar missiles or the guns of the Borman navy.

Aircraft carriers were a blur of movement and blinking lights as a complete carrier load of 150 F78Fs took off to the air and began making their way to Bahk ships. If they charted the ships escaping the theatre before Borman ships could close them in; they would then engage and sink them before Imperial naval guns had a chance to.

“Sir we can’t afford to wait for a response from the Borman Empire. Enemy forces are approaching and if we do not make ready for them we will be destroyed.”

Nikolai sighed as he gazed out from the bridge at the enemy forces now visible on the horizon. After a moment of reflection he nodded to his first officer.

“Battle stations, condition red. Notify the destroyer group to increase alert status. I want all Arrows launched immediately. They are not to fire unless fired upon first, I won’t start this fight but I will finish it.”

The flight deck aboard Housatonic was suddenly bustling with activity as the crew hurriedly launched its CF-105 Avro Arrows Fighters. Within minutes all 75 Arrows were in the air headed towards the enemy force approaching from the south east.

“Rear Admiral, message coming in from the destroyer group they are at red alert all weapons active.”

A4: "This is Alpha Four to Alpha Leader. We are approaching the targeted launch spot. T Minus 20 secons."

AL: "Rodger that. Disenguage safteys. Prepare for launch."

The pilots could hear the saftey mechinisms on the Thunderbolts switch off. It sounded like a soft but quick clicking sound. The pilots then looked out their cockpit and saw the last thing that they would see at this point, the shoreline of socal8 off in the distance. Each, at the same time, flipped up the red cover on top of their control sticks and pushe d a red button. They then pulled the trigger on their sticks.

They watched as two missiles streaked off from each ship towards their designated anti-air defensive networks. Totaling 50 Missiles heading into Socal8.

Blagraland: "Understood Alpha Leader. Return home and await further instructions."

We're twenty kilometers from the targets." The NB-442s continued inward. "Ten kilometers to first target. Entering bombing formation. Open bombay doors. Five Kilometers. Target on the nose.

Air Force’s headquarters, located a mile and half under the Black Forest, Germany, Dominion, a place used as the new air command base and on the surface, Dominion shadow ops soldiers do training mission in that forest. But it was not the only train grounds for the shadow ops boys. Pop up anti-air gun and missile site were under the surface, for an attack on the base. Why would somebody attack a forest? Because they is nothing on the surface, everything was underground.

The base had no entrance on the surface, the air was recycled through…well…a thirty feet by thirty feet by thirty feet room a feet under the surface. These room, which was called the Air Cleaning Room, has the best money could buy equipment to recycle the air. The air would enter through air vents on the left side of the room and clean air would exit through air vents on the right side. And the only way to get into this building is, to enter from below. Unless you were an enemy soldiers, you could blow through the roof and drop in that way. There were four of these rooms under the surface of the Black Forest. And there were small back up rooms, fifteen feet by fifteen feet by fifteen feet room, a total of twenty, were space all of the Black forest. And to back up that idea of one of the Air Cleaning Room is took out, they is enough air tanks to allow the people to escape.

To get into the Air Force’s headquarter base, one would have to broad a high speed train. The train, which was just is just the main engine car and one twenty foot long passenger/cargo train, was always hidden in in large hanger located on an air base on the edge of. The train is lower twenty feet under the hanger and to a train track, which lead to the dark unknown center of the world…really they head to the underground base. The train tracks travel for…well for miles on a five degree angle towards the base. The first stop would not be the base, it would be a large room called the The Train Depot.

The Train Depot, which is get a large natural made cavern, an eight hundred feet by sixty feet by a thousand feet Mother Earth made room, was modified with flat area for a train turntable and had modern look lights mounted to the roof, were the first stop. Located two thousand feet under the Black Forest. The Train Depot was one of the first spot for a person to get in to the base, a good sized building on the edge of the cavern housed the way to the Hell…I mean the base.

A elevator, which was made to hold over a ton, goes down for four thousand feet, closing on the mile mark. This marks the second stop to the base. A man-made bunker, a long hall with pillars and everything., was that stop. A placed called the Hall of Gods, which could have to do with the large statues of members of the House of Wolf. Over fifteen feet tall, the roof is twenty feet tall, the hall was forty feet wide. The hall was over five hundred feet long.

On the other edge was another elevator, which goes down , heads to another room. This is was the last stop before the base, a bunker that was a forty feet by thirty feet but seven feet. This bunker has no name. In the center, was the last elevator.

The last elevator goes straight to the base. A base that was multiple roomed but the whole bunker is over a hundred feet by fifteen feet by over a hundred feet.

“So…what are the reports from our bombers?” asked Air Marshal Devlin Saint Clair (http://www.freewebs.com/thetransylvania/Devlin%20Saint%20Clair.JPG), a Prince of the Transylvanian throne, in the command center of the base. A large room with many moderns with many things on them.

“They are coming with the allies bombing runs.” said one of the aides.

“Good.” said Devlin.

That first attack was one of many to come. The Dominion would from a safe spot for landing on every coast of Socal8. More bombers, more bombs, the more blood will be shed. The Count would be happy.

OH TECH WANK HARDLY. I personally just like to add details.. those aircraft are six months old.. and they arn't nearly as good today as they were then. For the small amount of technological knowledge i do have.. it is only a small blip of the tip of the iceburg. I think people being stuck in low mach outdated stealth and armour technologies to be sorta sad. True it is the standard of americans and it can prolly beat most third world countires arses.. but I consider my nationstate to be a leading early PMT (i.e. what is available but not fully implemented.. prototypes or just obscure) I don't see how I'm tech wanking. Personally i make as much detail as posible available for those that care, however. It is all fair game i just think if you are going to launch an invasion with thousands of ships the option to nuke them should be open as the alternative would be to make a totally tech wanked ship.. like the superdoom crusher dreadnaught.. it is made out of an asteroid from deep space.. made of an unknown material and can only be attacked by the secret element ... WOOD.. that information is kept top secret... don't ask why it is wood but on early tests.. only wood would do anything to the impervious material.. Using fine toothed wooden tools it was shaped into a boat hull.. and topped with special crygenis guns.. that would freeeze water so cold that the pressure would turn to steam and then superhot plasma.. melting the hulls of the ships in it's firing path..... either that or counter launch with thousands of ships.. and a massive air bombing campaign mission that would cost more then a few nukes.. it is more economic to nuke. which then devolves to this big mission. However I'm geussing by the time you attack this country there will be no industry left anyway... who knows. I was sorta ok with a reasonable little war or something.. but imo for such as large invasion.. note that you have to add the fleets together to get an acurate picture. That a conventional attack would be heavy. The numbers are just to large to have any meaningful occurance. It is like this big wing of ships lining the coast two or more per kilometer.. along the entire coast of the UK... maybe I'm mistaken however, I just don't see how this is anything but a numbers wank although my military spending may approach yours due to your tax rate only being around 20% and mine being 100% and that pretty much averages out our military spending I just don't understand how you can support an invasion fleet that large unless it is basically your navy. I can understand some but the rest I just don't quite get.
We could do this but obviously is such large fleets are at risk it would go nuclear anyway.. because no nuclear country is going to sit back and take a loss of a few thousand ships.

whatever though.. if you can explain to me how you support the navy or give me a roster of you navy then I can agree to this. I've done this in the past and it is now dated.. and my navy is larger then it was then but my fleets are still pretty much the same design, except for some specific task forces. I just can't get an accurate picture of how your fleets are operating.. you have them taking up such a large area. I just don't have an accurate picture can you explain it in the OOC thread.. so I can get an idea which ships have low cross sections which ones will be picked up.. etc.. as it is just a big goop.

((OOC: The standard accepted speed for aircraft, set and tested by the old line late MT-PMT nations is at the absolute maximum mach 2.65, at supercruise, and 3.8 being the maximum sprint. You've gone a bit over "what is available but not fully implemented.. prototypes or just obscure." You're close to being full FT, if not already there, and we're all within our right to ignore you.

Your claims of numberwanking make me chuckle, seeing as the nations involved here have spent near the entirety of their NS careers building up their national identity so that they can justify their various military sizes, tactics, and traditions. We're big nations, most are at least over 2 billion, Borman and I being over 4 billion each. We're also wealthy nations, with large industrial infrastructures. We manage large armies, which are below 5% of our populations, the standard maximum accepted percentage for a nation that expects to keep its other national necessities on track as well as maintain a military force. Considering this, what we have in Socal8 is peanuts compared to what we could muster, and what we deem as unnecessary to muster. You see, Socal8 is a small nation. This nation pissed off Borman somehow. Borman is invading him because of this. It's how the game works. Crying about it doesn't change anything. You're free to ignore it, but it's just being a sore loser. Sometimes bigger nations win just because they're bigger, and we all have to deal with it. I dealt with it when I was smaller, and so has every other nation here.

I suppose what I'm trying to say here is, we don't really care about your opinions on the matter. You can cry about what's going on, you can insult how we're doing things, you can tell us all how we should be playing the game, but that doesn't mean we're going to listen, because frankly, we don't care about any of it. I know I'm not going to cater to your whims and change how everything here is because you think it's unfair, and I doubt anyone else will. Socal8 has been a very good sport so far. I like his style, and he's going to go far in the NS world, because he knows how to RP, and doesn't cry about things out of character.

Personally, I don't care if you're involved or not. You're involvement really isn't central to the thread. This is between Socal8 and Borman, and we're all along for the ride. So, if you want to RP, then RP, and if you want to moan about things out of character, go do it somewhere else.))

The Raven corps reinforcments arrived and quickly intergrated into the current Raven corps forces already in the area. The absorbtion had been going well Raven corps forces have moved forward with no resistance at all. The soldierd moved into the cities and processed the civilians. Trucks and processing staions where set up and soldiers of the corporation invaded homes and forced the people into the streets where they where branded and placed into trucks depending on sex. Women where placed in one men in another. All thouse who hwere unable to be used where killed in the streets. Crys and screams could be heard by anyone who was anywhere near the town. anything was that not of anything of value was burned or killed. Pets and people of disability where killed. Houses burned and land tilled for stip mining. The land scape was turning into a a waste land as everything was being absorbed and transported away. Once Raven corps had left the land was level and scourched. Anything of value gone, even the nutriuants in the soil.... And still the Soldiers Continued to marched across the counrty side.

1st Lieutenant Marcus Netarha looked at the transcription. He was concerned about the state of this mission. There were now about 1000 men in this, of which 300 were noncombatent units.
Those goddamn bombers- hell would pay for this.
However, he had his orders from the Emperor to move off to the Socal8 capital, and orders were to be obeyed.
"I am afraid I must decline your offer. I must send my men to the Socal8 so we can help the oppressed peoples that are being invaded."
Netarha turned to the veterans.
"Forward!"
OOC: The next part is where they run into Raven troops.
Several hours later, they were still in the countryside.
Netarha ordered a halt, and the man stopped to clean weapons and refuel the trucks.
Taking out a pair of binoculars, Netarha peered at the smoke that he had noticed.
It looked like a small village. Soldiers, obivously foreign, were wantonly destroying property.
Seargant Hokara Tsutori stood beside the Lieutenant.
"Should we do anything?"
"No. We have a mission to complete. After all-"
"Lieutenant!"
A sniper appeared out of his hiding place.
"I've been down there, watching the destruction. They're attacking and branding women."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
Neterha hopped in the lead truck, and hit the radio,
"Soldiers! There are foreign troops in the village below causing wanton destruction on the innocent peoples of Socal8. I am heading forward with the 2nd Brigade (OOC:500 men) Tsutori will stay behind with the engineers.
They are causing destrcution and raising women. We're going to sort things out.

The Borman invasion continued sweeping south towards the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Minimal destruction was left in their path, not much resistance had been shown yet. However the soldiers expected that as they got closer to the capital resistance would grow heavier. As of yet there were only verbal assaults, so pretty much any physical reaction would have been a step up.

The head of the First Division were marching through a rural city behind the mechanized forces. Their marching through areas merely served to strike home the thought that “Now we own you.” As they marched the men had begun to take a loose attitude because of their lack of combat. Normally everyone in the division would have been alert at a civilian casually watching the procession of soldiers, but not this time. In particular a green recruit in the far front, next to the side of the man resided on, was carelessly marching forward.

A veteran several lines back instantly recognized something was going on and within seconds of thought realized that the man had an arm hidden from view.

As if in a movie time slowed down as the man stepped out of line. Words crept out in slow motion as he shouted a warning, but too late. All he could do was lift his assault rifle up and squeeze off a burst. But again, too late. The man stood up and with a twist of his wrist brought out a shotgun and cocked it. The careless soldier slowly turned his head and saw the barrel press against his facemask. All he had time to do was drop his jaw and open his eyes wide, then the man pulled the trigger.

The man too was treated with a lack of reaction time. Before he could drop the gun after the first shot the veteran’s burst hit him and tore his face to pieces. Then the rest of his body was pumped full of lead as he fell to meet with the cold concrete.

The line paused momentarily, the first casualty in the war had just been received. But then they continued on, just more angry then before.

OFFICIAL MILITARY COMMUNIQUE

To Admiral Wright Pompius

Our fleet is indeed planning to land on the southern coast of Socal8. Our current designated landing site consists of three beaches along the southern coast, basically between Bristol and London. We look forward to coordinating with you, however, there appear to be no coastal defenses in the area worth speaking of. After our landing we will be able to dispatch elements of our fleet to combat those of Socal’s allies in the area. Incidentally, as matters of interference in the area have been cleared up, we are beginning our assault as of noon today. Blood and Honor.

High Admiral Ludo Anor

***

The southern coast of Socal8 was abandoned, probably evacuated when news of the invaders reached the area. High Admiral Anor reflected that it was a pity the foreign fleet had not had hostile intentions, as his fleet could use some action. Perhaps after the landing they would go back and attack the infidels anyway. And as for the landing itself...he had an attendant inform High Lord Ishamael that it was time for the attack to begin. Ishamael had a reputation rivaling those of High Lord Rahvin, Imperator Vuell, or Lord Regent Seth Jamaane; there was little doubt that he would sweep through this country with ease, and smash its allies.

At exactly noon the Imperial fleet opened fire.

Very little was left standing after the Borman airstrikes, a situation that held true for almost all the southern coast. Still, in case of concealed or buried defenses, the Imperial fleet pounded the shores and the terrain for some miles inland. The Silencer-class missile subs surfaced and launched their graphite missiles at the enemy cities, mostly the capital, London. Graphite missiles were designed to detonate in the air, releasing countless strands of graphite, which settled onto the ground and knocked out electrical circuits wherever they landed. As they hurtled towards the capital and practically every industrialized area in southern Socal8, the invasion began.

Lumbering Atlantis troop transports moved ponderously to shore. One, in accordance with Imperial custom, outstripped the others and was the first to land. The great doors swung open, and out strode a solitary figure: High Lord Ishamael, in full ceremonial armor, carrying a black banner that bore the Great Seal of the Imperium. He rammed its sharpened end into the sand, raised his fist, and shouted his blessings on the campaign and his thanks to the gods. Only after he was finished did the rest of the landing ships disgorge their contents of Legionaries, tanks, and artillery onto the sands. A few miles up and down the coast, two more fleets of landing ships secured their designated beachheads. Over the next few hours, tons of materials were unloaded and the remaining troops positioned. A suitable location for a field headquarters had been located, and a quick airlift of troops meant the site was soon in Imperial hands. As the vast column of soldiers and supplies moved towards the area, helicopters transported small units of Legionaries to nearby hills and other defensible positions, in case any of Socal8's forces decided to attack. They were hopelessly outnumbered and probably busy elsewhere, but one never knew. Towns and villages within a certain radius of the Imperial column were likewise occupied. As Socal’s forces were penned up in London and the Sierra Nevadas, there was little anyone could do about it.

When the army reached their headquarters site, a truly massive work began. Prefabricated tents were erected, forming a huge field of these simple structures. Instant airfields, helipads, hangars, command buildings, officers’ quarters, ammo dumps, repair stations, field hospitals, and armories were set up, making the area into a hive of activity to conduct the campaign. As soldiers continued to be airlifted through the area, securing as much territory as they could, a fence of barbed wire was set up around the base, interspersed with watchtowers equipped with machine guns and searchlights, and the entrances were guarded by armored squadrons and checkpoints. Outside this fence a separate facility was constructed, this for the housing of prisoners of war. Already prisoners were being flown in by the busy transport aircraft and housed in sanitary conditions with ample food; no point in letting them die before they could be put to any use.

In short, within a day of their landing, the Imperial army had seized a broad swath of Socal’s territory, captured every town within that area and taken many prisoner, and erected a secure base, defended by the vast force which had been sent. Soon, the Legions would continue their advance, and this time would not stop until London.

OFFICIAL DIPLOMATIC COMMUNIQUE

To the Imperial Empire of Demon 666,

We have listened to your incessant whining concerning the righteous retribution of the Borman Empire upon a nation of terrorists, whining that echoes the mewling of the democratic fiends, the most perfidious of heathens. The Imperium has grown tired of your continued protests. As such, and in support of the Generian declaration of aggression, your civilian and military resources are now declared to be legitimate targets of the Kregaian Imperial Armed Forces. Be warned, as we will not explain this again. We will not be held accountable for acts of war or ‘human rights violations’. We will not hesitate to destroy that which you hold most dear. We will not spare civilians who you have abandoned by not adequately protecting. The gods alone grant clemency...but not to infidels such as you. Neither will we. Watch for us on the horizon, heathens; when we have finished with Socal8, we shall turn to you, and your lamentations shall echo across the world.

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

"Sir, Warmaster forces have begun landing on Southern beaches."

"What!? I thought we were going to do a co-ordinated landing."

"Apparently not."

"Oh well, it makes little difference. There is no resistance so we can both land different places and different times."

With that the Eighth fleet stayed in position on the southern coast, but moved closer in, readying to unload its forces and start a Southern invasion.

However Borman Imperial Command began to eagerly anticipate the capture of the capital, and so the Ninth fleet began moving up the east coast to land norht of Cambridge.

The Dominion was targeting army bases, air forces bases and naval bases of the enemy. More targets were fuel depots and farmlands. The wraith of the Dominion was coming down on the soldiers, pilots, and seamen of Socal8.

The Raven corps soldiers had finished with the towns processing. Soon the entire town population, men where taken to converstion tents where they where they where slowly turned into Raven corps troops. The women where already taken to the coast and had begun to have been loaded on to the ships.

The town had no been turned into a factory and had begun to melt down the metal in the town. The towns cars and heavy operation vehicals had already been outfitted with extra armor and spray painted symbols of the Corporation. A containment area around the town that spaned out about 5 miles. A 5 person guard station was set up along with a landing zone for Orcas that where dropping off soldiers and equiptment. Orcas also would go out in waves to conduct surveays and scouting missions.

Borman Empire
25-08-2006, 20:13
As Borman sought to complete a full blockade of Socal8 her fleets began shifting positions. Borman naval command had communicated with Generian forces and as the Generian fleet fell back to resume the position of the Second Fleet, that fleet moved off to fill in the position of the First Fleet. While these forces shifted the First fleet rotated clockwise around the top of Socal8 and began sealing off the East Coast.

But action was not centered on the north along, on the western isle Borman forces had easily marched across the land, spending little time in once place; easily proclaiming it Borman occupied. After they reached the end Imperivm class invasion dreadnaughts from both the Sixth and Seventh fleets moved into the channel to transport the soldiers to a staging point north of the Sierra Nevada

The time had come for the southern invasion, many allied nations had hit the south hard; and thus there was nothing left to prevent landing. As such all Borman forces had to do was land, and that’s what they did. APG-14 transports slid out of the Imperivm bellies and quickly made their way to the shore. Spilling out they began to recreate the scene on the northern coast, unloading tanks, men, supplies, and more.

The Ninth fleet continued wrapping around the nation, still holding its army in its ship’s bays.

The Warmaster
26-08-2006, 01:27
The Imperial advance was uncontested, unchallenged. Flights of prisoners flooded into the prison camp, captured from the plethora of towns along the southern coast that the Legions consumed. The landing had happened just west of Bognor Regis, and the conquest extended from Bournemouth in the west to Hastings in the east, and the northern front was in Reigate, just south of the outskirts of London. This large swath of land had been declared an Imperial territory by the Sacred Emperor and was being plundered to a great extent; household jewels, precious metals, and indeed anything of significant value had been taken and loaded aboard the Imperial fleet. A few towns had decided not to surrender. After the fate that these met, nobody else dared to defy these strange, brutal invaders. They could only hope that they also would not be destroyed.

Their hopes, interestingly, were not in vain.

There were already advance orders for Socalite servants from the noble families. The Sacred Emperor was taking the lion’s share of the plunder. Psychologists had requested specimens so they could come to understand the ‘infidel mind’. Thousands of captives were being snatched up by corporations for industrial labor. Skilled workers would be taken and put to work at their craft. To insure good behavior, the children of these infidels would be imprisoned and held hostage until the Socalites could be properly broken into obedience.

In the meantime, there was little to do. High Lord Ishamael, having consulted with Sacred Emperor Lucifer and High Command, had ordered that Borman troops be the first to enter the capital at all costs. The Legions would play merely a supporting role. Thus, all they had to do until then was extend their control over as much of southern Socal8 as they could, the better to squeeze the wealth from this nation of heathens.

Parthian 3rd Fleet

The Southern Coast of Socal8 was now the primary target for Borman's allies, a nation in need of purging and destruction in an act of justice for their misdeeds against Parthian allies. Parthian superdreadnoughts would pound the coast with 25 inch shells, each multiple tons in weight and capable of creating massive craters as they tore into the earth and detonated, ripping structures for dozens of meters around with the force of the shockwave as the guns pounded coastal towns.

ACI-73s took off from the decks of Persepolis class carriers, dropping incindiary weapons upon the smaller, more inland coastal towns, attempting to burn them apart and roast the people in firestorms, while meanwhile, hundreds of hovercrafts containing the Twenty five infantry and five armored divisions the Shah had considered sufficent for the campaign of destruction against the pathetic Socalians moved towards the shore, where they would cut a path of death and destruction directly towards the capital of Socal8. Coastal towns would be the first to die, with the Parthians ordered to massacre the inhabitants and raze them to the ground, nothing would be left alive, all would be killed, leaving nothing but the heads of the people who once called piles of rubble their homes arranged in pyramids, their skulls forever leaving a reminder to the world the price of misdeed against a Parthian ally.

B-9D Romulus bombers sped off Borman show carriers, laden with ordinance. The Sierra Nevada Mountains had already been hit hard by bombers from many nations, Socalian forces no doubt already took heavy casualties, but Borman would be bringing in some more. The air whistled against their soldier construction as they sped towards the mountain, men ready to drop bay doors and release hell below. Finally it was time and doors fell open as thousands of pounds of ordinance rained from above, bringing fiery death down towards the mountains, and the soldiers hiding within.

Yep, all MT units, these guys are considered as "cannon fodder" of the Gyrobot Armed forces and feared by MT nations (smaller ones) due to the weapons being better built (So an M16 made by Gyrobot will be able to use more types of ammo at similar efficiency and vice versa).

Here is a Gyrobot Infantry (MT policing action type soldier) gear looks like

1x Cycler, a 50 clip machine with the option of 9mm bullets, AP or non AP
1x Asura Pistol, holds 16 magnum rounds, clip fed.
4x G1 Fragmentation grenades.

Armor

The trail of smoke was cut off as the deafening roar of guns fell to a peculiar silence. Howitzers and the like had assisted Borman strike fighters and bombers in pounding the mountains hard with round after round after pound after pound of ammunition. If they were anything other than hard rigid rock carved by the hand of god, they would’ve been smashed down several times over; left with nothing but a smoking crater. But these were god’s creations, not those of man, possessing an almost infinite supply of strength and defiance, holding out strong and determined against the guns of Borman. But for every obstacle and for every enemy there is an answer.

The mountains had been pounded sufficiently, the tops charred and blackened by the explosions that rocked them so many times for so long. Insides knocked and rocked, no doubt dealing damage to some of the mountain-men taking shelter within the confines of the mountains. Now was the part of the infantry, no one else. In the close quarters of the mountain passes, coves, cracks, and hiding holes were where the real, and one-sided battle, for Socal8 would take place. Here there were no massive Maddox class battleships, F78s, howitzers, MBTs of many different names and acronyms or anything else but the soldier. In these confines Borman could only use what her massive military power was built on, the infantry unit. The man, patriot, soul, and fighter that worked together with others of his kind to build an Empire that has thus stood the test of time would once more enter battle alone, with only his fellow infantrymen.

With the blessings and bidding of man, father, Emperor, and God the soldiers began charging into the mountains, guns making short work of anything that moved. In a loose ragged single file procession, necessitated because of the beginning passage ways into the mountains, the men charged in; guns ablaze and bayonets swinging, they belonged in a hand not fixed on a gun.

Borman was hungry for blood, the blood of Socal8.
