A tiny nation, known as Merando, had shown itself to the world when it gave humanitarian aide the the New Tundrian Empire. The nation seemed to have wealth, and also seemed to be tiny. Claudius Griffincrest did not hesitate to order the nation to be conquered, and in minutes, a Griffincrest Expeditionary Unit was on its way to Merando's coast, ready to take yet another hapless nation for their oil.

The Head Amry Officer of Merando was told about this and he orderd 80,000 troops to be ready. He also said to fuel up 2 aircarft carriers and the 50 planes on them. He is waiting for more information befor he orders a attack.

120,000 mercenaries sat aboard their transports, looking anxiously at the sea as they readied themselves for war. They had nearly 1500 Mercury AFV's, 700 Leopard II's, 500 G7 105mm Howitzers, 200 BM-21's, and 50 Behemoth II's. The fleet was large, and the men were hoping for a quick victory, with a quick pay out. The fleet had two carriers, old ex-Brazilian Minas Gerais class ships, capable of holding 50 aircraft each. One was loaded full of Gnats, the other, half Gnats half F-4's. Defending them, were 8 Chieftain class battleships, and the pride of the Griffincrest fleet, a Kraken class dreadnought.

Henry Gruf Head Army Officer orders that all anti-air craft and anti-missle defenses to be ready. Also, 4 Battle Ships, 8 Subs, 6 more aircraft carriers, and 200,000 more troops to be ready and armed. He says not to worry to much because the nation is protected and surrounded by reefs 5 miles of the coast and hundreds of water mines.

Wow, I dont know if you can afford all that stuff:eek: , but neither can I with my nation.:p
Blackhelm Confederacy
28-08-2006, 21:53
OOC: Ok, remember, there is the 5% rule. You can't have more than 5% of your population in the military.

IC: The Kraken, along with two of the Chieftains, peeled away to intercept the enemy fleet. Aboard the rest of the ships, a path was being blasted through the mines with their torpedoes and railguns.

Missiles and bombs bombard the ships coming in. Troops are shooting at the ships while snipers are taking out pilots. Mean while, planes are ready for air strikes.

Correction: Thriving economy.

28-08-2006, 21:57
And if you gave me that much steel in real life your economy would plumet due to the cost of delivering, and then mining and stuff like that, so why dont you just take it back, do you want the workers back too?
Merando
28-08-2006, 21:59
no.

The many anti-missile systems aboard the vessels snapped to life. A virtual wall was being created around the fleet, defending them from the assault.

The Kraken and its escorting battleships began to unload upon the enemies carriers, flinging dozens of shells fired at incredibly high speeds at the poor ships.

On the beach, the first Mercury's began unloading, firing as they drove off.

All the troops fire wildly at the on coming attack. The government has spilled oil around the island and lit it on fire preventing anything from coming. Planes are boming the beachs killing enemy troops dozens at a time. Tanks are firing at the beaches.

The Gnats were scrambled to down the planes attacking the landing. The battleships began unloading their own assault on the beach, sending hundreds of shells screaming down on enemy positions. The oil was not really a big deal, as the tanks and AFV's just drove through it.

The Kraken was now focusing on the battleships, while the 2 Chieftains continued hitting the carriers.

150 Tomahawk missiles were brought back to life to bombard enemy troops and tanks. Also, planes are droping tons of barbwire and mines on to the beaches to try to slow down enemy troops. People have been seeing kids run and throw moletove cocktails while saying "Stop, Stop, we don't want a war. We have everything we need and more. Go away" On top of that people are rolling down barels of gas and oil and shooting them so they explod and shrapnel from the barrel wound or kills enemy soldiers.

"They are blowing up oil!!" a commander shrieked as he saw it. He quickly got a piece of paper and penned a letter to Merando.

"Leadership of Merando. Surrender, and become an associate state. Your leaders will still be in power, but you will be under the umbrella of Griffincrest, and your oil will belong to us. This is your last chance."
Merando
28-08-2006, 22:41
Merando officials will surrender if there is a negositiation.

More citizens of Merando are attacking enemy troops. Troops are firing 5,000 bullets a minute and 2,500 missiles every 5 minutes at enemy troops.

Mercenaries were taking heavy casualties, but the Gnats and F-4's were now beginning to bomb strategic enemy positions around the country. The Mercury's were putting all 4 of their guns to use, tearing apart infantry formations.

"Agreed, where will they be held?"
Merando
28-08-2006, 22:59
They will be held in a underground negosiation center near the beach.

If Merando's demands are not met then citizen will set fire to all 12 oil fields.

"Have it your way" the officers announced, before leavung the room.

The tanks were once again rolling. Hundreds of shells were fired from the ships at sea. Gnats and F-4's dropped hundreds of laser guided bombs onto enemy positions. If they wouldn't give up the fields peacably, they would be taken by force.

"That is even worse than the last one. We are commencing the assault"

Nearly 100 BM-21's were set up along the beach. On the order to fire, Thousands of rockets flew from the position, blasting apart most of whatever the nearest city was. The mercenaries on the beach were now pouring over the enemy, spilling into the city, taking no prisoners as they went.

"We would rather enslave your populace and steal the rest of your resources, burn them"

Thousands of rockets, bombs, and shells continued to rain down on whatever enemy forces were left. Mercury's full of soldiers were speeding towards other cities, burning them and slaughtering the inhabitants.

OOC: 100,000 troops do not dissapear.

Nearly 10,000 rockets had already slammed onto enemy lines. Ships were conitnuously ferrying more and more rockets to them, and it seemed like the barrage would never end. The nearby coastal city was devastated. About half of the rockets had it that, as well as nearly 2,000 bombs and hundreds of naval shells. These people were only hurting themselves by defying Griffincrest in such a way.

Merando
29-08-2006, 00:52

Also, what does role play do???
Merando
29-08-2006, 00:55
You can start you military base in a hour because the island is still being cleard and evacuated.
Blackhelm Confederacy
29-08-2006, 01:11
Excellent. What is the size of said base, and does it have naval capability?

OOC: You just role played.
Merando
29-08-2006, 01:14
You can have naval. It is in a bay so it is protected from waves. It is 20sq miles. On one side there is a mountain but it is only 984 feet high so you can remove it and extend the island.
Blackhelm Confederacy
29-08-2006, 06:35
Fantastic. A base is being set up immediatly.
