The nation of Ackistan had been under suspect for a certain amount of time now with suspecion pointing to them for a number of incidents including the nuclear attacks. Just recently GASN allies had picked up transmisions to the Corporate Alliance indicating they may consider bombing Clandonian positions as they had been focusing on space and satellite development. In response Clandonian commanders with the aid of allies from the Dominion Commonwealth and Mationbuds had increased the speed of the space programe for possible use to destroy Ackistanian satellites.


Since 48 hours ago command had authrised the recon of Ackistanian military, civillian and other possible targets for airstrikes in a stratergy plan in the event that war would arrise. As the commanders and chiefs of staffs flicked through the papers in the underground bunker near Verdan. The agender of the day was focussed on Ackistan which was seen as a servere threat to Clandonia, so much so that they had begun taking daily satellite photos of the country which was near to Blainsville where the actions of then had brought destruction onto the country


Outside the guards stood in their NBC suits in the freezing artic conditions brought on after the nuclear strikes. Before the strikes many an expert commented on the advancing glaciers, combined with nuclear winter the country was in Ice Age, the last few months had been bad with temperatures in the capital reacing -22 degrees centigrade. The devestated landscape from the strikes was still visible, the rusting and decaying buildings stood around, people had moved out away into the country down down into the network of newly built underground homesteads and towns to escape the extreme cold and radiation.


It was decided to launch a blockade to stop the imporation of arms to Ackistan using the Clandonian naval forces. The Dridon fleet was ready for action, dispatched from the naval base in Scandanvia they set off late Monday afternoon.

The following ships of the Dridon fleet:

4x Carriers: 1x Invincible class, 1x Cavour Class, 2x CVN 21 Class Aircraft carrier

2xWasp Class (Landing Assault Ships Craft)

2x Amphibious/ Assault Ships: 1x Albion Class, 1x SAN ANTONIO CLASS (LPD)

6x Destroyers: 2x Hydra Class FFH/FFG, 1x Sovremenny Class DDG, 3x Duke Class (type 23) FFG

8x Frigates: 4x Type 45 Daring Class DDG, 4x Anzac Class FFH/FFG

4x Albion class Landing Assault Craft

16x Submarines: 2x Type 212A/214 Class SSK. 4x Collins Class SSK, 10x Ohio Class Missile Cruisers (Can fire ICBMs , SRBMs , Tridents , Polaris)

22x Patrol Craft and Missile Boats: 8x Mark V Special Operations Craft, 10x River Class PG/MSC, 4x Barzan (Vita) Class FAC[M]

6x Mine Warfare Vessels: 4x Hunt Class MSC/MHC, 2x Sandown Class MHC/SRMH

4x Fleet Auxiliaries: 1x Durance Class AOE, 1x Etna Class AOR, 2x Supply Class AOE


The Marine Corps had given the go ahead for 40,000 marines to go along as well and the Joint Helicopter and Aircraft arms were given the go ahead with pilots from the airforce transfered along with naval aircraft to the naval ships. With F-18's, Harriers and JSF's flying onto the decks of the massive naval task force. Seahawks, Merlins, and even Apaches from the Army were soon appearing on the landing and assualt carriers. Something was going to occur and as famalies said their good byes to their serving members switching on Clandonian News Networks channel live footage of the massive mobalisations....

Airforce assets were in gear as well, several spotters watched as the massive B-2's, B-52's and B1-B's set out towards Scandanvia with their X-35 supersonic long range escourts. Army assets were also being loaded, tanks and heavy vehicles from the missile regiments loaded onto C-5's and C-17's on the way to a massive military buildup in the Clandonian colonies. Four shuttles went up over the weekend taking Marines and missiles into orbit destined for what many in the inteligence community assumed was the space station. The conflict was on.




OOC: Ok bitches, this time this is closed! There will be an OOC thread, I ask Ackistan to make a map, and only people that he and I agree on will be allowed into this which means September and October 2006 new nations. This is modern tech so now flying aircraft carriers. Foreign nations may only issue diplomatic messages no flames, I will ask Mod's if flames begin again. Monetary aid must not exceed $20 billion and no forces can be commited. I don't want to use nukes in the story line unless its going to be tactical but I don't think Ackistan has any. So its over to you I hope this goes well third time lucky!

OOC: May I re-enter. I thought this would be fun until everything went bad.

OOC: Post in here please everyone from now on, post what you will and want to do and which side your on.

Vice President Damon Hermanus burst into the President's room and said, "Sir, our allies, the Clandonians, have begun a blockade on the nation of Ackistan."

"Interesting," said President Amras Wallace as looked at the map placed in front of him. "Why do I care?"

"I just thought you would want to know since they are our ally. I am sorry if I..."

"You are fine. Perhaps there is something we can gain from this. Land, and a little influence wouldn't hurt. It would do well with our recent land grab in Trivalvia."

"We have no reason to get involved though. The international community will frown on our involvement."

"Like you said. They are our allies, and I always stand behind our allies."

Damon mumbled under his breath then said, "What is your order?"

"Put the military on alert, and notify all reserve troops that could be called up at anytime. Do not tell them why. Begin preparing a good bulk of our naval forces. I will contact the Clandonian leadership."

"Yes sir."

"We would like to help you in your current endevour with the condition that we are allowed to take land from Ackistan. We can draw up figures later, but we are prepared to add to your blockade with our naval forces, and deploy troops if the situation calls for it. It is time we stand against nations like this."

High Encyption Level Tango

Your help is most welcome, we plan more than just a 'blockade' we are aiming to achive regime change once and for all so they no longer medal about Clandonias actions on the world stage. We are mobalising another two taskforces which should be ready in the current week providing all goes well. Reserves are being mobalised and on the transport flights to staging posts, we ask now that we can use your airfields near the Trivalvian islands.

The alert levels had been raised, the two man rule had been authorised and red cards had been given to the various officers in charge of Clandonias weapons systems on the submarines, ships, aircraft and even orbital shuttles....

"At the moment our bases at the Trivalvian site are still under construction and are no where near being completed. You can however use it as a docking area and refueling station for naval fleet. We have been hording oil for purchases in the nation of Brydog, and have plenty to use. Our forces are being mobilized as we speak. Five Water Dragon Class Battleships, Three Wayer Dragon Class Submarines, and Two Fire Dragon Class Aircraft Carriers have been deployed and shall arrive soon."

President Ward: Unbelievable. I can’t believe Clandonia Prime is attempting to claim any sort of moral high ground in our conflict. Their nuclear attack on Blainesville was nothing more than a reckless, callous, and irresponsible act. Blainesville is tiny, land-locked, and surrounded by peaceful nations. Did they think they we wouldn’t notice when they detonated a nuclear weapon just a few hundred miles from our border? Now, you say they are mobilizing to invade us?
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs: Yes, sir.
President Ward: Unbelievable. Aren’t we supposed to be having peace talks with these people?
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs: Yes, sir.
President Ward: What sort of @$$%*!^$ mobilize for war during peace talks?
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs: Apparently Clandonia Prime @$$%*!^$, sir.
President Ward: I say screw Clandonia Prime. Obviously, we must take action.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs: Agreed, sir.
President Ward: What do you recommend?
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs: It is the unanimous opinion of the Joint Chiefs that we proceed with Operation Mind Crime.
President Ward: When you last came to me requesting permission to start that operation, it seemed quite heavy handed. In light of these new developments, you have my approval. Are we prepared?
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs: Yes, sir. Ever since we drew up the plans, we’ve been making preparations. Weather forecasts for this evening are suitable. We could begin tonight.
President Ward: Then do so.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs: Yes, sir. Also, Mr. President, radar indicates Clandonia Prime is moving aircraft to Scandinavia. We want permission to intercept them.
President Ward: You have it.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs: Excellent, sir.
President Ward: Once the bombs begin to drop, you have permission to do whatever you deem best to win the war short of using nuclear weapons.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs: Excellent, sir. I believe that would be best.
President Ward: Best of luck to you, and may God bless Ackistan.

Phase I of Operation Mind Crime

2 hours before dusk
- Ground-based Ackistani lasers target surveillance satellites spying on Ackistan. The lasers are little more than glorified laser pointers that cover a larger area. They are too weak to damage or destroy satellites, but they are perfectly capable of blinding their optics through overexposure. OOC: This technology exists in real life.
- Ackistan’s president, vice president, and congress are all moved to secure facilities underground.
- Ackistan’s AAA, SAM’s, artillery, missile defense systems, etc are all redeployed to new locations rendering previous photos of their locations obsolete.
- Ackistan’s mobile ICBM launch platforms leave their hangars for the first time. They are scattered to various remote locations throughout Ackistan.
- Ackistan’s military airbases scatter their aircraft to reduce the risk of a single bomb destroying multiple aircraft. Some aircraft are moved to civilian airfields.
- Military trucks begin delivering gas masks to libraries and post offices for distribution to Ackistan’s citizens. There aren’t enough gas masks to go around, so only citizens living near strategic targets will receive them.
- Ackistan’s military, coast guard, law enforcement agencies, and emergency response agencies are placed on high alert.
- Ackistan's silo based ICBM's are prepped for launch in the event a nuclear retaliation is required.
- Combat air patrols take off to patrol Ackistan’s borders.
- Ackistani military aircraft begin to take off to take part in a synchronized first strike on Clandonia Prime. Military planners take into consideration the speed of their aircraft along with the distance to their targets. They want their aircraft to arrive over their targets at the same time. The goal is a widespread, crippling, nighttime surprise attack.

The synchronized attacks consist of the following:
- 16 B-2 Spirits attack various targets in Clandonia Prime.
- 24 F-22 Raptors attack the fleet Clandonia Prime sent to Surdun.
- 2 F-16 Falcons and 2 F-14 Tomcats attack Clandonia Prime’s oil facilities off the coast of Revavlostok.
- 24 F-22 Raptors attack the aircraft you are sending to Scandinavia.
- Ackistan’s Information Warfare Unit attacks Clandonia Prime’s computer systems.
- Ackistan’s 1st Carrier Strike Group begins to make way towards Scandinavia
- Ackistan’s 2nd Carrier Strike Group begins to make way towards Clandonia Prime

16 B-2 Spirits Attack Clandonia Prime
I am sending every B-2 stealth bomber to attack strategic targets in Clandonia Prime. They will be refueling along the way, and should arrive after dark. Provided you do not stop them, they attack the following targets with precision munitions:

- 1 bomber attacks Clandonia Prime’s capital building (wherever you leader works/lives)
- 2 bombers attack Clandonia Prime’s strategic oil reserve. If you don’t have a strategic oil reserve, they attack any oil fields you may have instead.
- 2 bombers attack Clandonia Prime’s two largest oil refineries.
- 2 bombers attack Clandonia Prime’s most important military command posts. They won’t attack underground facilities, but if you have any above ground important military command posts (like the Pentagon), they attack those.
- 2 bombers attack Clandonia Prime’s two largest nuclear power plants
- 2 bombers target any major dams or levees Clandonia Prime has. If you posses any dams or levees, whose destruction would result in widespread secondary damage (like flooding a major city), those are the ones they target.
- 5 bombers attack Clandonia Prime air force bases. Their primary goal is to damage runways to prevent aircraft from taking off, and to destroy aircraft on the ground. Air force bases housing stealthy aircraft receive top priority. Beyond that, they target the biggest installations.

24 F-22 Raptors Attack Clandonia Prime Fleet Near Surdun
I am sending 24 F-22 Raptors to attack the eight naval vessels Clandonia Prime sent to Surdun. They will be refueling along the way, and should arrive after dark. Even though they are considered stealthy aircraft, they will approach at a low altitude to assist their ability to avoid radar detection. If any Clandonia Prime combat air patrols are detected on radar, my F-22’s will steer around them on their approach. Provided you do not stop them, they will attack your fleet. 10 F-22’s will be assigned to attack your aircraft carrier, and 2 F-22’s will be assigned to attack each of your remaining 7 naval vessels. On their first pass, they will drop cluster bombs with the intent of causing secondary explosions and clearing your top decks of personnel. On subsequent attack runs, they will drop 500 pound bombs until they run out of ordinance. Each F-22 is carrying 2 air-to-air missiles, which they will use if they come under attack from aircraft during their bombing runs. Should they succeed in their bombing runs, they will then scour the area for targets of opportunity (AWACS, refueling tankers, helicopters, or fighters).

2 F-16’s & 2 F-14 Tomcats Attack Oil Installation Near Revavlostok
I am sending 2 F-16 and 2 F-14 Tomcats to assault Clandonia Prime’s $800 million oil facility off the coast of Revavlostok. They will be refueling along the way, and should arrive after dark. They will approach from a low altitude to reduce the risk of radar detection. Their final angle of approach will be parallel to Revavlostok’s border, so my aircraft can avoid flying over Revavlostok as they make their attack runs. The F-16 will drop their bombs while the two F-14’s provide fighter escort. They will drop their bombs as quickly as possible, then be on their way provided they are not stopped.

24 F-22 Raptors Attack Clandonia Prime Aircraft Near Scandinavia
I am sending 24 F-22 Raptors to attack the aircraft you are sending to Scandinavia. I would prefer to attack your aircraft while they are on the ground, but I do not know where your aircraft will be when my synchronized attacks take place. If your aircraft are still en route, my aircraft will try to use their stealth to sneak up on your planes from a 12-o-clock high position. They would attack aircraft equipped with air to air weapons first using a combination of AMRAAM and Sidewinder missiles depending on range. They will fire as many missiles as they deem necessary to destroy fighters. If after firing all their missiles, your still have fighters, they will flee. If they manage to destroy your fighters, they will use their guns and remaining missiles to target whatever helpless aircraft remain. If your aircraft have reached Scandinavia, my F-22’s will attempt to bomb them while they are on the ground while addressing any sort of threats that crop up as they arise (like enemy fighters). If they notice anything like a large jet fuel depot, they will try to destroy that as well. If some of your aircraft have arrived in Scandanavia and others are still en route, they will attempt to target the base first then move to intercept any aircraft in the air.

As the bombs start to drop, Ackistan’s president will be addressing the nation. Also, a 2nd wave of attack aircraft begins to take off. My post has already run a bit long, so I’ll post those things along with the details of Ackistan’s Information Warfare Unit’s efforts in a little while.

Clandonian satellites were being blinded, this was now officially war. In response shuttles were moved into, deploying Orbital Paveway Tungeston Bolts onto the Ackistani ground sites. This was war, in reponse to that, the massive air wing of Clandonia went to air from its bases to target airbases, naval yards with Standoff Cruise Missiles deployed with Clandonian Corporation Penetrator rounds they would deploy through any sub-terrain networks the Ackistanis had.

'The bastards are blinding us, just before we went someone said they are moving ICBM's out! Fuck this lets glass the bastards now!' Said one provactive General called McNamara his forces had nuked the North after the anarchist attacks.

'No, its far to soon we must complete a air war first detroying their military targets with our airforce.' Said air commodore McArthrat.

'I agree, and as Commander in Chief I now authorise the use of force for the full military operaiton. I have confirmed that tungeston darts were fired from oribt, we need our satellites up as soon as possible. I will speak to the Narians about their contribution but the other task is that is now underway is the destruction of the Ackistanis space assets using our Space Marines units.'

The Clandonian bomber wings went to air, from the 4th Bomber wing 20 B-2's aiming to hit targets deep inside targetting the major cities and all airfields regardless of civillian or military. All planes will be blown out the air or on the ground. So the war had begun.....

The Bridge of the of the Troop ship CNS Acooltart was quiet the night officer looked at the little green radar screen dipping his pen in the drink. Then suddenly, several a mass of dots. Then it was gone, he looked away and went back to putting sugar in his coffee. The pilots were playing football on the deck with night vission goggles. Then the sudden roar, it wasn't one of theirs the faint sound of aircraft. They looked up standing around, a gust of wind blew the ball into the water.

'Holy shit!' the F-22's were very distint with their wings then came the wooshing sound of targetting bomblets falling. The bombs tour up the runway, hitting the standing aircraft and refueling trucks on the deck. The night officer barely had chance to press the alert button as an explosion tore through the glass. The alert sounded, the remaing ships rushed to wake up their battle stations, manning the defence systems tracer fire lit up the sky from the massive Gattling Cannon 'Goal Keepers' spraying the air, targetting the low level thermal wake of an F-22 it fire two Sea Scout missiles while other batterys on the ships lit up.

Then the Destroyer CNS Fishold exploded in a bright light, its ammo cartridge, men could be seen jumping out into the water on fire. Men that had been playing on the carrier rushed down into the decks through the massive lifts, meeting with their enginer crews rifles in hand they tried to find their planes in the darkness as the main power systems had gone done. Rushing to launch the small compliment of 12 fighters from the troop ships storage deck they managed to get about 7 into the air before the an explosion filled ther room and the ship bean tilting....

After two hours, three ships had sunk their crews in the water, an urgent message was sent to the Cravan forces for possible rescue from the icy cold waters. The remaing ships had fired several missiles at the F-22's before they had gone down, unknown enenmy losses. The 7 F-35's that had managed to escape went to hunt the remaining F-22's in a leathful suicidle battle. Merlin helicopters had taken off carrying injured troops hopefully to land.

Meanwhile in the comffy chairs of the 747 flying over the battle, the co-pilot spotted a flash in the East. The pilot glanced towards the navigator picking up several SOS beacons, they made contact with two of the Six X-35 escourts who went to take a look. The scene that confronted them was a horrific one, the CNN news had shown breaking news of the battle. 247 dead, 604 injured and 421 critically injured hopping back to base the remaing four ships looked for help. This was truely war now, in response an naval captain hereing of the news ordered all his submarines to launch several tomahawk cruise missiles onto Ackistani targets on the secondary list, mostly these were towns and cities mostly civillian targets a dirty war had begun.

Clandonian Corporation Oil Terminal, off the coast of Revavlostok

The Clandonian corporation watched as the alert went off, men not knowing what to do as they aircraft flew over hitting the moored up tanker in a massive inferno. The black crude seeped out, combusting in a massive fire it was seen from space. This made the second breaking news on CNN of the night, by now many people had woken up switiching on tv's and computers wanting to know what had happened. The terminal was completly devestated, the fires were burning tugs trying to poor sea water where helpless as their filters clogged in the oil spill.

'My god, why the fuck did the get us!' cried one oil worker, covered in oil and in a fire fighting suit. The corporation was not pleased, it was now a full backer of the war, depositing a large sum of money into the governments account.

ooc:tripost?

Scandanavian Clandonian Base, Clanon Island

Upon hearing the news, the commander of the base made the air alert at max level scrambleing the bases 20 X-35's and calling for the airforce with their F-18's. In total around 40 aircraft had been scrambled in around an hour, an impressive site in the skys of the darkening island. A blocking order was issued, all non-essential aircraft were to turn back to Clandonia where a shit storm had started now with half the countrys air reserve and off duty airforce officers awoken from their beds rushing into the air patrolling the borders.

The island was under full lock down, expecting attack with what was a large proportion of the airforce heading or already there, many were told to fly to safer areas or hidden as they Rapiers were brought out and the Clandonian Airforce Regiment went into position securing the base under full lockdown on land, sea and air.

Ackistan’s Information Warfare Unit launched their attack on Clandonia Prime once they received confirmation the first bombs had been dropped. Preparations had been in the works for months. Writing the computer viruses was simple enough, but gathering lists of e-mail addresses and IP addresses in Clandonia Prime had been a bit more time consuming.

To put their plans in motion, they unleashed their custom designed “Liquidator” trojan virus, and began mass mailing their “Mail Bomb” virus to unsuspecting Internet users in Clandonia Prime.

Virus #1 – Liquidator Trojan Virus
The Liquidator Trojan Virus was designed to attack computers with IP addresses known to belong to Clandonia Prime Internet Service Providers. The virus would probe those computers for commonly known vulnerabilities. As the virus was new, common anti-virus programs would not recognize it as a threat. Still, success was not guaranteed. Computers protected by firewalls and operating system security patches would be largely immune. Less fortunate computer users weren’t so lucky. Once the virus had attached itself to a computer, the virus would immediately use whatever e-mail programs it found to e-mail the “Mail Bomb” virus to every e-mail address it found in the user’s address book while disabling the computer’s keyboard and mouse drivers. Once this had been accomplished, the virus would begin to overwrite the victim’s documents with worthless nonsense while using whatever bandwidth was available to the victim’s computer to make denial of service attacks against major Clandonia Prime websites (news agencies & major commercial websites).

Virus #2 – Mail Bomb Virus
This virus basically behaves like the Liquidator Trojan virus. The primary difference is this virus is spread via common e-mail programs. Essentially, Ackistan’s Information Warfare Unit is mass e-mailing the virus to computer users in Clandonia Prime. The e-mail itself will include an attached file, which infects the recipient if it is run. The subject and contents of the e-mail are designed to lure the potential victim into running the attached file. There are about 100 variations of the e-mail. Some claim the attachment is a celebrity porn video. Others claim the attached file is in fact an anti-virus program designed to protect the user against the “Liquidator” virus. Others claim the attachment is a screensaver featuring some famous Clandonia celebrity. Once the virus spreads, most of the e-mails will appear to have been sent by friends and business acquaintances.

Lastly, Ackistan’s Information Warfare Unit is mass mailing Clandonia Prime e-mail addresses with e-mails encouraging Clandonians to revolt against their government. The e-mails vary, but most of them are similar to this:

“My fellow Clandonians (or whatever your people call themselves),

Our irresponsible leaders have ruined our nation with their nuclear weapons. Millions of our people have died fighting pointless wars. They have brought us nothing but sorrow. Our foolish leaders are leading us to the brink of disaster once again by involving us in a needless conflict. Can we really survive another nuclear attack? I think not. I encourage Clandonians everywhere to think of our children. Rise up against our psychotic leaders and bring peace to our nation!”


OOC: Ackistan's presidential address post coming soon along with damage from your attacks. Wish I could type faster. :D

CNN went down about halfway through the evening after showing images of the patriotic submarines chalking 'death to Ackistani' and 'this ones for you peacnik faggot' on cruise missiles and then being fired at Ackistani towns and cities. Then a lot of things went down, millions of computer systems went down the radar system for Clandonia went down instantly the countrys air defence network had gone within a second. Thankfully, the islands was still up thanks to a server crash the virus had not spread via satellite communications. The Clandonian Corporation pissed at the attacks on its oil instalation order its ADSL lines down trying to stop the outbreaks. Across the country with websites down, Clandonian hackers went to work patriotically attacking Ackistani systems with their 1337 ways of DoS attacks and page defacement of pictures of great Clandonian leaders.

Space command by now had deteced all Ackistani satellites and had began targetting them as tungeston darts and explosives placed by marines in the EOV's.

The F-22's had been picked up briefly on long-range naval radar, about the only radar still operational in Samka after the Clandonian bombings. An aircraft from the CAP patrol currently designated to protect Samka was diverted to keep an eye on proceedings, and promptly reported the distress and sinking of several Clandonian ships.

An NA-4 Attack/Utility helicopter of the Coast Guard was despatched to the scene, and managed to drag from the sea five very wet, very surprised and very nervous Clandonian seamen, who had drifted closer to Naasha thanks to ocean currents.

All five were placed under arrest and transported to an island detention centre which sat about a kilometre off the Naashan coast, a perfect place for discreet tortures, and where prisoners could be conveniently 'lost' forever.

The five men had been in a life boat, drifted apart and sepearated from the main ships they had jumped off a frigates after it got hit, they thought they were the only ones alive. The sight of a helicopter pleased them, but when they saw the Naashain colours they got very scared the men with guns and the trip to what looked like an island. One of the men before he had been taken in took the life boats GPS beacon and discretly ingested it as so never to be found by the Naashian guards.

Surely enough, the search of the man did not reveal the GPS marker. The helicopter sped away towards the Samka Island Detention Centre, stopping first at a pier just north of Samka, apparently waiting for some new arrival to take across with the seamen.

The Bridge of the of the Troop ship CNS Acooltart was quiet the night officer looked at the little green radar screen dipping his pen in the drink. Then suddenly, several a mass of dots. Then it was gone, he looked away and went back to putting sugar in his coffee. The pilots were playing football on the deck with night vission goggles.

This was truely war now, in response an naval captain hereing of the news ordered all his submarines to launch several tomahawk cruise missiles onto Ackistani targets on the secondary list, mostly these were towns and cities mostly civillian targets a dirty war had begun.


Lt. Henson's (a.k.a. "Gimmick") F-22 was riddled with gattling gun fire as he attempted a low level pass over Clandonia Prime's fleet. He cursed himself for flying so close while glancing over his flight instruments. His craft was losing hydraulic fluid & fuel, and wouldn’t be able to make the return trip to base. He radioed in a distress call, and began to make his way towards dry land. A few minutes later, he ditched his aircraft over Surdun, and hoped for the best.

Another F-22 pilot, Lt. Riley (a.k.a. “Bear”) had the misfortune of being unable to close his weapons bays after dropping his ordinance. In this state, Clandonia Prime anti-aircraft missiles were able to establish radar lock on his aircraft. While he managed to evade a missile or two, his craft was inevitably struck, killing him instantly.

As the remaining F-22’s began to make their escape, they detected seven aircraft attempting to pursue them. 8 F-22’s were ordered to turn about to engage these new threats. 4 F-22’s flew straight towards the enemy while the others attacked from the flanks. As they approached, they carefully monitored their enemy’s actions looking for any signs the enemy knew their positions. Once they were able to establish radar lock, they fired their AMMRAM missiles.

In an effort to secure more prisoners, and sweep it's territorial waters, Naasha has deployed NA-4 helicopter craft of the SAR variety to look for more sailors to 'rescue' or wreckage to be salvaged. In order to protect this helicopter fleet, Naashan MIG 31 and J-10 aircraft will be flying CAP patrols some way off the coast, due to the breakdown of peace talks, they are treating all Clandonian forces detected as hostile.

Naashan Garrison troops stationed at Gunwe observed the distressed F-22 as it flew over, and were able to spot the pilot eject, a patrol was dispatched to bring him in.

'Fucking Naashains, first they capture our men now they try and finish off our ships!' The surviving F-35's went into combat mode launching their air to air missiles and engaging their 30 mm cannons when they could. Surviving sailors watched from the decks, wet and injured the engaging air battle. Many manned the M-60's and .50 cals brought out to engage the hostile threats they saw more incoming jets looking like Soviet designs with Naashian colours, now they were for it.....

Two F-35's were locked on taking hits, the pilots killed on impacts, the others didn't want to be captured so stroked their Glock pistols a round in the head was more honour than being captured by the enemy.

The Naashan pilots laughed as the ejected Clandonians shot themselves, obviously never having heard of the Naashan 'parachute strafe' that would have saved them the trouble.

Eagle Flight, a MIG 31 interceptor squadron was first to engage, using PL-12 medium range missiles from a good height to engage the surviving F-35's. They didn't want to face too much AA fire from the surviving ships below if they could help it.

Weasel Flight, of Chinese J-10 multi-role fighters was fired upon by F-35 aircraft, taking one casualty, the aircraft exploding into a burning fireball before the pilot could eject. Relying on air cover from Eagle Flight, they engaged Clandonian shipping, aiming for smaller escorts such as frigates and destroyers with their YJ-9K anti-ship missiles.

Deep in the heart of Ackistan, missile command detected numerous missile launches. After calculating the trajectory of the incoming missiles, it was apparent Ackistan's satellites were coming under attack. Ackistan's satellites lacked any weapons or defenses of their own, but they weren't completely helpless...

Ground based missile defense systems on loan from Chellis came to life. Numerous A-233 kinetic kill vehicles were launched to intercept these incoming missiles. Unfortunately, only satellites near Ackistan benefited from these defenses. Far away satellites would be lost. After all was said and done, Ackistan lost the following satellites:

- 2 global warming research satellites monitoring the north and south poles, which doubled as GPS satellites
- 1 weather tracking satellite, which doubled as a GPS satellite
- 1 surveillance satellite over Clandonia Prime
- 1 surveillance satellite over Clandonia Prime’s fleet near Surdun
- 1 space based telescope
- 2 ballistic missile tracking satellites

In response, 2 Boeing YAL-1 Airborne Laser systems began targeting any Clandonia Prime satellites flying within 300 miles of Ackistan. While the YAL-1 was designed to destroy ballistic missiles, they were also capable of destroying satellites. Each YAL-1 carried sufficient gasses to target 20 missiles each, but satellites required longer bursts to destroy. Each YAL-1 would be able to target 10 satellites.

Lt. Henson's (a.k.a. "Gimmick") F-22 was riddled with gattling gun fire as he attempted a low level pass over Clandonia Prime's fleet. He cursed himself for flying so close while glancing over his flight instruments. His craft was losing hydraulic fluid & fuel, and wouldn’t be able to make the return trip to base. He radioed in a distress call, and began to make his way towards dry land. A few minutes later, he ditched his aircraft over Surdun, and hoped for the best.

They reached the Ackistani pilot shortly after his parachute touched the ground, signalling that they meant no harm the Naashan patrol gestured for him to get into the customary waiting black jeep.

Ackistani Presidential Address

"Good evening, my fellow Ackistanis.

Long has the government of Ackistan strived to be a model citizen in the world community. We have given asylum to people, whose corrupt governments would sell them into slavery. We have welcomed with open arms refugees from impoverished nations seeking a better life. We have rendered aid to nations in need. All this we have done while asking nothing in return.

Our military has never before fired a shot in anger. However, it is my sad duty as your leader to tell you our long standing tradition of peace has come to an end.

No doubt every Ackistani citizen is well acquainted with the recent hostilities involving our neighbor, Blainesville. In the finale of that conflict, the nation of Clandonia Prime recklessly unleashed their nuclear arsenal on our neighbor with callous disregard for the safety of Blainesville’s peaceful neighbors. Clandonia Prime’s irrational nuclear attack left us a strong wind away from catastrophe. In retaliation, Blainesville’s allies launched a massive nuclear strike against Clandonia Prime, which utterly devastated the nation.

From the ashes of Clandonia Prime’s defeated government arose a new government, which is even more militant and irrational than the government they replaced. While their people suffer the effects of a nuclear winter, Clandonia Prime has dedicated their efforts not to rebuilding, but to expanding their military and WMD programs. Our diplomats did what they could to discourage Clandonia Prime. We attempted a naval blockade to keep nuclear weapons from reaching Clandonia Prime, but our navy was forced to flee when Clandonia Prime’s allies intervened. Now, our intelligence agencies have discovered Clandonia Prime is mobilizing their armies to invade our fair nations.

Common sense and the safety of Ackistan demanded a preemptive strike. Earlier today, I authorized our armed forced to launch preemptive strikes against Clandonia Prime assets around the globe. As I speak, our forces are launching these attacks.

While it is my greatest hope this war ends quickly, I do not expect that to be the case. Blinded by greed, we expect a number of nations to intervene on Clandonia Prime’s behalf for the sole purpose of taking our fair land for themselves. Our cause is just. We will prevail.

At this time, I would like to appeal to the people of Clandonia Prime… War has brought great suffering to your people. The Republic of Ackistan does not wish to add to your troubles. We encourage your people to rise up against your psychotic leaders, and demand peace. Should you cooperate, you will find the international community willing to aid you in the reconstruction of your nation.

God bless Ackistan. Good night."

Shortly after the presidential address, the following took place in Ackistan:

- Air raid siren tests
- Ackistan’s television and radio stations broadcast directions to various bomb shelters, what to do during an air raid, and where citizens near strategic targets could pick up gas masks
- Ackistan’s entire military reserve was activated
- Ackistan’s congress starts an emergency session for the purpose of raising taxes and allocating more money to the defense budget
- Diplomats from foreign nations are being moved to secure locations

They reached the Ackistani pilot shortly after his parachute touched the ground, signalling that they meant no harm the Naashan patrol gestured for him to get into the customary waiting black jeep.

Gimmick was hoping to avoid detection until Ackistani search and rescue units could find him, but today obviously wasn't his lucky day. "At least these folks seem friendly", he thought to himself as he reluctantly hopped in their vehicle.

As they drove off, he asked his captors if they understood English.

Clandonia Prime had sent 20 B-2 bombers to attack civilian targets and airfields within Ackistan’s borders…

Due to the stealthy nature of the B-2 bomber, Ackistan’s air raid sirens were silent when the bombs began to fall on their cities.

In the port city of Highland Falls, a sky rise apartment burst into flames as it was struck by a pair of bombs. The building immediately lost power, and terrified residents were forced to use flashlights as they fled the building. Residents of the upper floors found their escape blocked by flames. In less than 20 minutes, the building collapsed killing 512 people while injuring 712 more.

About the same time, 1/5th of Highland Falls was plunged into darkness as bombs struck a power station.

In the capital, Ackistan’s Supreme Court building was demolished by bombs. Fortunately, the building was largely empty during the evening. Still, the building was a national monument, and its loss would be mourned.

Meanwhile, at Ackistan International Airport, bombs began to fall on military and civilian targets alike. A 747 bound for Chellis exploded at a terminal, killing 117 passengers as they boarded the plane. Elsewhere, an AWACS and YAL-1 Airborne Laser were destroyed along with a number of civilian aircraft.

By the time the attacks were over, Ackistan suffered the following casualties:

- 1,417 killed, 2,319 injured, 714 missing
- 1 AWACS, 1 YAL-1 Airborne Laser, 3 Globemasters, 6 B-52 bombers, 2 Apache helicopters, and 12 private aircraft destroyed
- 1 airport terminal destroyed
- 2 power stations destroyed
- 1 television station destroyed
- 1 national monument destroyed
- 1 microchip factory damaged
- 3 runways damaged at various airports
- Numerous fires blazing in Ackistan’s two largest cities

Firefighters, paramedics, canine search and rescue units, and repair crews were being dispatched to the many bombing sites to do their best to control the damage.

Like every other spy satellite flying over Ackistan, your satellite is targeted by lasers designed to blind your satellite optics (described in my first post in this thread). The laser is too weak to damage or destroy satellites, but it does effectively overexpose photographs.

I am monitoring this you fool . I'm not getting involved otherwise , either militarily or diplomatically .

Unfortunately for the Ackistanis , the new satellites were fitted with latest optic lenses that would block out any such "blinding" devices ...

The raids on Clandonia had come, the 16 B-2's hit silently, with radar down fighter command was in chaos fighters were not scrambled in time until many above surface structures were heavily damaged.

The old parliament had been hit and was on fire, fire crews were trying in vain to save the governments home. Danskerans oil terminal was ablaze billowing black smoke into the sky the first explosion had given off large seismic forces which at first many thought was a nuclear blast.

The nuclear complex Kirkland was ablaze with the re-processing plant on fire sending a plume of dangerous toxic smoke towards the East. The town was evacuated as the flames reached within distance. 274 fire fighters were killed when the reactor halls platform collapsed from metal failure. The East was plunged into darkness with the shut down of the grid network after transformer damage.

Clanon citys surface airport was it, the fuel depo blazing away grounding passenger flights because of the huge thermal wake caused by the fire. Bombs had hit the capital, bringing the city to chaos as the defence ministrys glass fronted tower collapsed briging down two hotels killing 875 civillians.

Oil and power generation assets were down, with the main Clandonian Corporations pipeline down from the North damaged, oil was stopped. The Chief Executive Clandonian Corporation was very annoyed, his son had been injured in a bombing raid at Prilius Airport on a C-130K flight to the capital to report for duty.

Casulities so far:

-1149 Civillians killed, 432 military personal dead
-lost one nuclear power station at Kirkland
-4 small regional runways
-Danskeran oil terminal on fire and burning
-3 regional runways down
-Microvik Stealth Base destroyed

-Surdun Taskforce, four ships sunk, one scuttled other two limping back to base, 578 sailors dead, 5 missing, 4 pilots dead

Satellites had been targeted, the Space shuttle was ordered to destroy the 747 YAL-1 Airborne Laser aircraft before it damaged the militarys network of communication via COMSTAR. Space to Air missiles were fired tipped with tungston penertrators, but it was too late the nations internet ground to halt and the navy lost two spy satellites while again the Clandonian Corporation lost 7 of its communication satellites, millions tuned into the static fuzz on tv as satellite services went down. Cell recepition ment little contact in the country, people were getting very angry and there was an anti-Ackistani protest in Clanon City.

Clanon City Command Bunker

The situation room was covered in a fine coating of dust, many were picking bits of plaster out of their coffee as a result of the bombing raids the facility had been targeted emergency generators were online. The situation was very bad, already over 2000 Clandonians dead, five sailors captured, much of the infrastructure in chaos, over seas assets attacked without warning. Commander General, Sir Douglas Lancer, looked on towards his weary eyed generals manying tired and covered in plaster dust and many with sidearms....

'So, they hit us first well we will teach them. I authorise the use of ICBM's using FAL thermobarical warheads to hit all targets a launch of 20 of them combined with another bombing pattern of B-2's. I also want a 40 bomber B-52 raid hit all their cities, bridges, power stations, media outlets, airfields I don't care if its civillian fuck colateral damage they hit us first, we are realing from the hit lets give them more than a bloody nose.'

'Aye sir, we have the next bomber strike preparing to leave now with F-117's from the Scandanvian bases ready to go strike their communications systems with fuel bomblet Storm Shadows. Our hackers have aided us as well, several have come to help us restore the defence network with our radar down we were unaware of the bombing raids this morning.'

From across the room, a man walked in a civillian the head of the Clandonian Corporation. They had aquired several cruise missiles of Pudian design, stealth and they were loading them with a trial weapon the TX-nerve gas acid based, NBCR suite exposure was limited to 30 minutes before filter errorion began. They were to launch these at Ackistan, non-explosive all they did was fly over a city release the droplets from the glass balls then when they ran out of fuel it would hopefully hit something the missile before exploding after 2 minutes.

Taskforce Two, combined fleets of Lord Lt. Commander Sir Victor and Adminral Wolftiz's Fleet heading towards Ackistani waters to engage hostile carrier battle group


Lord Lt. Commander Sir Victors fleet
4x Carriers: 1x Nimitz Class CVN, 1x CVN 21 Class, 2x CVN 21 Class Aircraft carrier

2x Cruisers: 2x Ticonderoga Class CG

8x Destroyers: 2x Sachsen Class FFG, 2x Kang Ding Class FFG, 4x Duke Class (type 23) FFG

10x Frigates: 6x Brandenburg Class FFG, 4x Hydra Class FFH/FFG

12x Submarines: 2x Astute Class SSN, 10x Ohio Class Missile Cruisers (Can fire ICBMs , SRBMs , Tridents , Polaris)

4x Albion class Landing Assault Craft

1x Supply: Henry J. Kaiser Class AO


Adminral Wolftiz's Fleet

2x CVN 21 Class Aircraft carrier

4x Ticonderoga Class CG Cruiser

2xWasp Class (Landing Craft)

8x Type 45 Daring class Destroyer

10x Type 23 Duke class Destroyer

2x Astute Class SSN Submarine

4x Albion class Landing Assault Craft


The fleet had been combined to create a massive task force, the navys task destroy the Ackistani fleet once and for all then proceed to bombard the land with missiles. Nimrod's had found the position of the Ackistani task force and they had readied long range Sea Sword missiles to sink their main carriers then using the submarines they would launch a massive torpedo attack before the guns and cannons of the cruisers and destroyers would finish the survivers off.


Many of the landing ships had aircraft on, marines were being deployed to fortify Scandanvian territory in fear of invasion. A massive naval battle lay ahead.

2nd Wave of Operation Mind Crime

OOC:
As I mentioned in my first attack post, a second wave of aircraft were launched 1.5 hours after my B-2’s took off. They should also arrive at night shortly after the B-2 strikes.


IC:
Attack on Clandonia Fleet near Kurdun:
This group was dispatched to mop up whatever remained of Clandonia Prime’s small fleet after the Ackistan’s F-22’s did their work. Had Ackistani military planners expected a third party to attack Clandonia Prime’s fleet, the 2nd strike might not have taken place. At the very least, fewer aircraft would have been sent.

24 F-16 Falcons approached the Clandonian fleet at a low altitude to reduce the risk of radar detection. As they approached within 100 miles of the enemy fleet, they increased their altitude for their attack run. Unless they are prevented from doing so, they launch 4 anti-ship missiles at each of the two remaining naval vessels once they are in range, and prepare to drop 500 pound bombs on any remaining naval vessels as they fly overhead.

Attack on Clandonia Prime:
Ackistani air command wished they could send more aircraft to attack Clandonia Prime. Unfortunately, they were somewhat limited by their ability to provide in-flight refueling to their aircraft.

120 B-52 Bombers
24 F-22 Raptors
24 F-16 Wild Weasels
24 F-15E Strike Eagles
6 AE-6B Prowlers

The plan was simple. The aircraft would divided into six groups. Prowlers would provide electronic countermeasures. F-16’s armed with HARM missiles would target any SAM’s sites once their radar was activated. F-22’s would engage hostile fighters. F-15E’s would attack ground targets, provide additional fighter support if needed, use their advanced target acquisition systems to search for targets of opportunity, or assist in the destruction of SAM’s sites as needed. B-52’s would bomb strategic targets.

Their targets would be:
- Major oil facilities of any kind
- Power plants
- Air force bases


OOC: I will try to post some more damage shortly, but I figured I should post my 2nd wave of attacks given they were supposed to take place so soon after the first wave.

The air raid sirens went up, for the first time in the war so far. Long range radar had picked up a large bomber force. All Clandonian fighters were ordered to scramble, many taking off from grass and temporary runways due to bombing damage, hasitly constructed mobile command units of fighter command. Radar was still patchy, it was hard to pin point the exact location and Signals Corps were moving along with civillian computer technicians to get the network up for proper air defence.

The rushing of pilots and their WSO's to the planes lined up resembled something out of the great war when Clandonian pilots defeated the enemy in the great Battle of Clandonia some 50 years ago using propellor aircraft with machine guns. Now the job was just as hard, missiles had replaced guns and complex radar systems scoured the coastline.

Some several hundread SU-30's F-22's were also being prepared pulled out from the deep bunkers by reserve forces. Thousands of civillian air sector workers, with Clandonian airspace locked down and civillian flights grounded due to damage turned up to help the military logistical operatation. The whole nation was behind Clandonia now.


Surdani Taskforce

The three remaing ships were limping back to base, the two destroyers and the troop assault ship were badly damaged. Their air power gone and with many injured aboard they were no longer combat effective. Long range radar calabrations had picked up possible activity it was until the first anti-ship missile hit exploding the shell cache of the Hyrda Class Destroyer SNS Belgrana killing 400 sailors firstly, as many jumped into the water air defences opened up trying to swat the F-16's down. It was too late, the fate of the ships was bad the other two ships took bomb hits damaging the ships, both captains ordered evacuations into the life boats. The taskforce was obliterated, as soon as the Admirality heard the news, he was pissed extremely pissed. In a massive order he ordered orbital weapons platforms to launch Titanium Missile Pods at the Naashians capital for their part in it. He sent them a message to them, 'cease your assistance with the Ackistanis and release our prisoners or I will unleash a nuclear bombardment on your country'. He was being serious now, this was not a good day for the Clandonian navy,they had lost around seven ships and several hundread men.....

CNN had come back on mid evening, many people were just learning of the massive bombing attacks that had occured on the nation. The oil terminals were hit at Dasnkeran, a nuclear plant offline, attacks on the oldest buildings. And news of two dams being hit in the North at Minskian flooding the city killing several hundread civillians. Several dozen F-117A's had been blown up on the ground killing several civillian stealth technicians and pilots at Mircocvik which was a severe blow that had angered many. Many were calling the government too soft, some of the right wingers were growing angry at why the Ackistanis were not smoldering under a massive glass blanket.


The attacks on Scandavia had been bad hitting parked up transport aircraft in a surpise attack. Regiment forces were clearing the place up, in total around 27 planes had been destroyed mostly the 132nd Transports wings brand new C-130J's but several four C-5's that had just landed were hitting killing several hundread marines. It was a bad site and the island was positioning its defences ready to possibly defend off more air attacks.

Naashan J-10 fighter-bombers joined Ackistani air assets in attacking the Clandonian fleet, YJ-9K anti-ship missiles being fired from low altitudes in order to try and breach hulls as close to the waterline as possible, however, the Naashan Flights make no attempt to disguise their advance, and their MIG-31 escort flight is several minutes behind, leaving the J-10's extremely vulnerable to enemy fighter support.

The Glorious Empire of Naasha warns Clandonia Prime of the consequences it faced last time it fired nuclear weapons, and urges it not to risk bringing the same destruction upon itself again.

As prisoners of war, the captured Clandonian Naval men will be held until hostilities cease, at which point their detention will be reviewed. Naasha will not bend to military threats, as we are fully aware of the destruction wreaked on your nation by the Illustrious Nation of Ackistan.

'Then so be it.' Said the Director of Space Command, nuclear weapons were not going to be used but they would use something just as devestating. Titanium kinetic bomblets, weaponry launched from orbit to attack the Naashian capital with a great deal of destructive fire power. A plan was also underway from a rescue to the PoW's.

Sandya, the formerly majestic capital of the Empire was reduced to a state of partial ruin. Buildings built to withstand the weather, plus maybe the odd terrorist collapsed like dominos as Clandonian Space Weaponry was unleashed.

Terrified and bewildered citizens huddled in the underground shelters that had been their homes for three days now as large portions of the city collapsed, literally over their heads.

Two shelters took direct, penetrating hits from the bomblets, killing all the inhabitants, around a thousand, instantly.

The limited Naashan fleet of B-52 bombers were launched from Naash, bound eventually for Clandonia, targeting civilian targets, as well as the international airport.

Satellite intel confirmed the devestation of the Naashian capital, that taught the fuckers many a Clandonian thought. Intel had also captured the movement of several B-52 bombers, moving off then the image was lost as the satellite went out of its orbital range. What were they thinking of doing striking Clandonia?

CNN reports that Naasha has declared war on Clandonia Prime, after what it calls 'malicious and unprovoked attacks on civilian targets'.

The small, secretive state possesses a modern armed forces, which plans to use specialist tactics to compensate for it's small numbers.

In a statement from the office of The Prime, Naasha declared that 'for every life of an innocent Naashan citizen that Clandonia indiscriminately ends, a Clandonian innocent will pay the blood debt.'

Command laughed when they heard the news, many Generals were near crying when they heard of the pathetic ramblings. They would destroy Naaha until it was nothing more than dust. It was authorised to launch more strikes from orbit onto their cities until they learnt their lesson and gave in.

High in orbit, one of the shuttles preppared another drop down of two missile sets onto other cities. They would then mark bases from destruction with FAL warheads.

The lead B-52 adjusted it's glidepath, approaching the Clandonian border and already in position for an attack run, the final target could be decided when they were a few miles out.

"Roc Flight, Roc Leader, entering Clandonian territory, intelligence reckons that their defensive net is down, but let's take no chances. Ready counter anti-air measures."

***********************************************************
Clandonian Space Weapons crashed down onto further Naashan targets, the bombardments obliterating several Naashan lockdown patrols, as well as three more underground shelters.

The official death toll was put at -
56 Naashan Military Personnel
2500 Naashan Civilians.

**********************************************************
Shortly afterwards The Prime gave clearance for the evacuation of major population centres, into designated refugee camps. Non-essential military installations were to be closed down until such time as the bombardments ceased.

The Naashan patrolmen grinned at the Ackistani pilot.

"Yeah, we just didn't think you did. And hey, next time you start partying with Clandonia right next door to us, you could be as kind as to extend an invitation to our pilots to join in the fun!"

The Jeep headed back into Gunwe, blissfully unaware of the inbound Cravan landing forces, and a communique was sent to the Ackistani government.

Steadfast and Glorious people of Ackistan, we, the Gracious Empire of Naasha have in our custody one of your pilots, downed by Clandonian air defences. We would be happy to make arrangements to transfer him back to Ackistani territory.

We would also hasten to draw your attention to the fact that our nation is also at war with Clandonia Prime, we would be honoured if our two nations could share intelligence on our common enemy, specifically on potential targets for our bombers.

Praise the Empress.

At a mobile field Rapier battery, the radar operator picked up a object, very faint long range early warning was down so he didn't know what to do. The Rapier would engage hostile threats as it found them.

'How long is radar down for, news is that it should be up by the end of the day.'

'OK thanks', the network technician went back to recalibrating the dish network sat in his parka coat on the cold surface he wanted to go back to his warm bunker.

News of the glorious Clandonian strikes were pictured on CNN with satelllite images and direct camera images of the strikes as the missiles went down. The aim was not to kill civillians but to destroy the infrastructure which they hoped would push over the Naashian regime.

The B-52's banked again slightly, onto final bombing approach now.

"Check loadout."

"Two is fine"

"Three is a-okay."

"Four - trouble with the bomb racks, we're working on it."

"Five is fine, special munitions are prepared."

"Six detecting radar contact, bombs look fine, special munitions are ready to go."

Special munitions, thought Captain Handersson, good way of putting it. Mustard Gas canisters were loaded into the bomb compartments of the last two bombers in his flight. On another day he'd have objected to this, but the Clandonians had crossed a line, killing thousands of innocents. As nasty as it sounded, he was looking forward to returning the favour.

The bombers were sighted by surface soldiers, troops already in their NBC artic kits due to the level of the nuclear contamination in the West. The bombs fell whistling on the underground civillian complex housing at Danskeran, the bombs hit the surface access hatch tunnel blowing up traffic moving in and killing the guards. The mustard gas was deteced by chemical sensors, troops in full NBC kit moved in to rescue civilians, many horrifically injured screaming in pain shocking even the most hardened soldiers and medics. This was really war, many knew of the MAD doctrine employed by their countries military and looked forward to what they hoped was the sight of nuclear mushroom clouds over Naasha.

B-52's had been spotted, 14 fighters were sent up to shoot them down, capture the crews is possible. 14 F-22's were on the way up, mobile radar units were tracking their proges.. Those bomber crews would not make it home....

"Six...payload cleared."

"Roger that, Roc Flight maintain formation and RTB"

"Roc leader, Roc five, multiple radar contacts, over ten."

"Roger that, Roc Flight close up formation, climb to ceiling height, Roc five, identify contacts."

"Contacts appear hostile, signature is... F-22."

"Alright, Roc Flight begin climbing, gunners to the turrets."

'This is alpha flight, authorisation to blow the fuckers out the sky is granted. Engaging air to air now, woo they trying to shoot us down with their BB guns!'

The jets launched their air to air missiles targetting in on the big fat bombers that had just brought on so much devestation bellow.

The bombers banked slowly, but the superior missiles could hardly miss. The entire flight went down without a single return shot being fired.

In total eighteen parachutes opened over Clandonia, the rest of the crews didn't make it out of the aircraft.

Spotters looked as the flameing wrecks fell down, the army ready to move in. Falling onto the fresh snow of the Northern Planes just south of Danskeran elements of the 2nd Home Armoured Division lined up with their Challenger tanks and dog units ready to hunt the enemy airmen down and take them as prisoners. Men lined up with their G36K's, snipers ready to walk forward they would capture them or they would kill them.

Captain Handersson was the first to land, and had spotted the army units converging on the landing zone. Drawing his pistol, he waited until he was in sight of all of the remaning crew, and then, still leading by example, he cocked the gun and placed it against his head.

"Praise the Empress!"

He pulled the trigger.

His men, all of them, followed suit, they'd not give Clandonia anything to bargain with.

Clandonian hackers went to work patriotically attacking Ackistani systems with their 1337 ways of DoS attacks and page defacement of pictures of great Clandonian leaders.

The following morning, after the first attacks had been exchanged, Ackistani citizens were hungry for news. Many turned on their televisions and radios to learn what had happened the night before. Ackistanis, who visited ANN's news website, were less than amused when they found the website riddled with pictures of Clandonian leaders along with photoshopped pictures of Ackistan's leadership dressed in drag. Similar defacements were found on a number of less prominent websites.

"We were pn3d", Chris Lewis, computer programmer, sighed to himself.

Elsewhere on the Internet, a number of prominent Ackistani websites experienced slow downs while some smaller websites were completely unavailable.

The Naashan patrolmen grinned at the Ackistani pilot.

"Yeah, we just didn't think you did. And hey, next time you start partying with Clandonia right next door to us, you could be as kind as to extend an invitation to our pilots to join in the fun!"

The Jeep headed back into Gunwe, blissfully unaware of the inbound Cravan landing forces, and a communique was sent to the Ackistani government.

Greetings from the Republic of Ackistan!

While it appears our two governments have little in common philosophically, a wise man once said, “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”.

We agree that our two governments should cooperate in defeating the putrid nation of Clandonia Prime. We propose that Lt. Henson remain with you as our liaison officer, and request you provide him with secure means to communicate with our government.

At this time, we have lost satellite surveillance over Clandonia Prime, but we would be happy to provide you with a list of fixed targets for your bombers. Stand by to receive photos and GPS coordinates of the following targets within Clandonia Prime:

Power Stations
Nuclear Plants
Water Plants
Television Stations
Radio Stations
Oil Refineries
Oil Wells
Oil Reserves
Military Command Centers
Naval Bases
Air Force Bases
Army Bases
Naval Shipyards
Weapons Manufacturing Plants
Automotive Manufacturing Plants
Aviation Manufacturing Plants
Major Bridges
Major Dams
Major Levees

Should you decide to deploy bombers against Clandonia Prime, we encourage you to coordinate your attacks with us. If we cooperate and synchronize our attacks, we believe Clandonia Prime will have a harder time mounting a defense.

Best wishes,
Angelina Whittaker
Ackistani Secretary of State

PS. Please inform Lt. Henson that he has received a field promotion to captain.

In an emergency meeting of Ackistan's congress, the following decisions have been made:

- Ackistan has temporarily suspended their "Balanced Budget Act". At this time, congress has approved the sale of up to $70 billion worth of war bonds.
- Ackistan has temporarily increased their income tax rate from 18% to 25%
- Ackistan is temporarily reallocating their budget.

New Budget:
- Administration spending is still 18% of the total budget, but spending has increased to $151.638 billion due to the tax increase. Ackistan’s congress believes additional administration funding will be required during wartime.
- Social Welfare spending has been reduced from 15% of the budget to 11%. Due to the tax increase, Social Welfare spending will increase slightly to $92.667 billion. As we expect unemployment to decrease during wartime, the focus of our Social Welfare spending will shift towards providing for citizens, whose homes or workplaces have been destroyed.
- Healthcare spending is still 9% of the total budget, but spending has increased to $75.819 billion due to the tax increase. Congress feels our healthcare system will need assistance providing care to our wartime casualties.
- Education spending has been reduced from 15% of the budget to 11%. Due to the tax increase, Social Welfare spending will increase slightly to $92.667 billion. As tempting as it may be, congress does not wish to cut funding to our schools. Educated Ackistanis are an essential part of our future.
- Defense spending has been increased from 9% of the budget to 26%. This represents a massive increase in spending to $219.032 billion.
- Law and Order spending has been reduced from 15% of the total budget to 13%. With the increased tax rate taken into consideration, spending in this area has been significantly increased to $109.516 billion. Congress feels our police, fire fighters, paramedics, and other emergency responded are an essential part of the war effort.
- Commerce spending has been reduced from 11% of the budget to 8%. With the increased tax rate, commerce spending is relatively unchanged.
- Public Transport spending has been reduced from 8% of the budget to 4%. Even with the tax increase, we will be spending less in this area. Existing public transportation will continue to operate, but the construction of new systems will cease until such time as our nation is as peace.

General Thor Visari (http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y101/CountJWolf/Thor-1.jpg) arrived at the Clandonia Prime space station via a Dominion shuttle. The General was a member of the Dominion Armed Forces’ High Command, a former leader of the 6th Soul Tigers. The man gave up the life as a combat soldiers to use his military strategist mind for the great good of the Dominion Armed Forces. But why send an armed forces man into space and to an allied control space station?

The General has a bulldog type of body shape, a short and muscled figure. A person that would looked like he could take on the world for the fun of it. Both strong and fast, the General had something all commanders need. He was smart and can think on his feet.

The General looked around as he stepped aboard the station, his eyes focused with the station‘s lighting. He would get use to it. Or that was what he told himself. He was wearing his own type of Transylvanian body armor custom made by Timber Wolf Inc. He moved his right hand to his leg hostler to check his pistol, a Burning Fox pistol cambered in .45 ACP.

The Clandonians were members of the Dominion Commonwealth but the General only trust people he knows. Like his former soldiers, he missed fighting side by side with those men.

He looked up to see a Clandonian walking towards him. He moved his hand always from the pistol as the man moved towards him.

“I’m General Thor Visari of the Dominion Armed Forces’ High Command.” he said, his voice deep and clear. So this man should understand him. “My mission to look around this space station and watch your nation’s current mission. Both ordered by the Lord Marshal, my God-Emperor.”

"We acknowledge that Ackistan is facing an unjust attack on its soil, and that it needs assistance. We also acknowledge the fact that paying blackwatch to fight on the ackistani side is more... effective, in terms of war weariness in the homeland. We agree with the PM Raslin, and will allocate funds for this expedition." The council had spoken.

Within a few hours, a fleet set off from chellis, containing a division of soldiers. The division was set up as light armoured, with an artillery and a SAM brigade attached. Also being shipped were four wings of Chellian Rafale F4's, using many chellian produced upgrades to make it much more competitive in the world. Also shipped were an AWACS, four cargo aircraft, various supplies for maintaining the equipment, and varied munitions.

The ships were accompanied by one AEGIS equipped destroyer. All ships bore chellian commercial markings, and were headed to Ackistan. The ships had no outward signs of carrying military personnel, they simply looked like cargo containers.

In Ackistan, the chellian ambassador met up with an Ackistani representative, and let him know that chellis was paying for chellian mercenaries to come assist ackistan in its war. He asked for accomodations to be made, a base for the men, and somewhere for the aircraft to operate out of.

OOC: If these ships get attacked, chellis will declare war on whomever attacked them, as it would be considered attacking chellian shipping without provocation.

Dartia gives Akistan permission to use our military bases to fight Caldonia Prime. We also want to send some of our fighters to Akistan to help defend your nation. We can only afford to send 20 of our F-14 fighters, but our pilots are highly skilled killing machines.

We can send some medical supplies and doctors too if you need it.

Maybe Caldonia Prime could just agree to dismantle their nukes, then we could avoid all this fighting?

OOC :
This is a closed thread and cant you read the heading that only 2006 nations ...

To do that will mean leaving him defenceless against the threat of Blainsville and the Blackhelm Confederacy .

IC:

Southern Danskeran Artic plains, Clandonia


The men of the 2nd Armour saw the men fireing their pathetic little pistols, they opened up with cannons and chainguns all they saw from the distance was the red spurts as the munitions hit them. The commander of the group Captin Vincent spoke in a loud voice over his tanks loud speaker 'Clandonia dosn't take prisoners, we just burn dead bodies of our enemys!' His men uproared and cheered fireing their weapons into the air in the snowy wastelands.




Clandonian Orbital Space Station

'Greetins General, I am Commander Luiensky of the Clandonian Space Marines please come this way for refreshments and the tour. I am afraid the place is a little hectic and messy what with the current military action. Our forces have been using titanium rods to fire at Naashian targets, they are very effective we are currently reloading two of the shuttles now to prepare for attacks against the Ackistanis. They will pay for the strikes that started this war.'

Outside, two military shuttles were being loaded for a mission to deploy bolts against Ackistani positions.

To try and win hearts an minds Clandonian commanders decided to depoly the new 'Rods of God' or so many had called it. 10 Titanium Pod, metal darts launched from orbit essentially man made asteroids, it was decided to launch four pods containing 10 darts each at Ackistani targets essentially the military bases and power stations though cities were now thought to be allowed under RoE. After the General Thor Visari visit, the Clandonian shuttles disembarked into orbit and readied their weapons, firing them in 4 second gaps as the small rocket motors put them on target straight for the tiny worthless country that called itself Ackistan.

Clandonian Orbital Space Station

Thor looked at the commander in front of him, his dark green eyes scanned the man. Standing close to five foot six inches tall, Thor has to look up at most people. That’s way he had use his commanding deep voice to make everybody listen. To follow his orders.

During his five years as the commander of the whole 6th Soul Tigers, only one man tried to dethrone him from his position. It happened in the middle of a battle and only one survived to see another day.

“It is always messy during war, Commander Luiensky.” said Thor. “From what I was briefed over, your civilians were attacked and killed. That makes me sick.”

He paused, like he was thinking. “The first time I saw a civilian being killed by armed soldiers, I was eighteen years old and the first time in combat. To make this short, I pop the armed soldier’s eyes out and then pulled out his heart.”

“Now, you may lead me around this space station.” he said, like nothing happened about saying he ripped a person’s heart out.

'Yes war is messy, my family were killed by anarchist forces I was one of the first out of the helicopters when we did air assaults against them. It was messy, we will win this war I know it. Those Naashans have captured five of our men, we lost the GPS tracking one one of them some suggested he was shot, our forces are preparing to go if it fails then some say those nuclear missiles that you saw outside will be heading towards Ackistan and Naasha.'


Leading the general into the command centre, several large maps showing what the future of the Clandonian military command would be like, in space. Screens showed the stages of the fleet and movements of aircraft across the world. The also targets in Ackistan in Naasha where Clandonian forces were bombing or had bombed them.

'This is the command centre, our operational forces will one day be commanded from here. Imagine millions of men under the operation of senior staff from this room, this is what the future of Clandonian warfighting is like.'

Clandonian Orbital Space Station

Thor listened to the commander as they walked through the hallways of the station. He took every word into his mind, listening to everything. Thor, himself, does not know this man’s pain of losing family members in a war. But he does the pain of losing your country men in combat. Your brothers in arms, your sisters in arms, side by side as you charge into battle.

Arriving at the command centre, Thor looked around the whole room at the large maps and screens. He took everything in, like how many screens were in the room and etc. He would write a report back to the Lord Marshal, his God-Emperor.

“The Lord Marshal will be happy to hear about this station.” said Thor. ”He wishes the men on this station as much luck as they can get.”

'Your men are welcome to be stationed at this, we want to expand this perhaps with your nation to build more of a space based military possibly even craft to reach other planets one day. Now if you come with me to this room, you can get a cracking meal!'

The Commander led the entourage into the Clandonian Officers Mess, complete with hits prize winning Michilon Star chef. The food, though prepared in space from freeze dried and long life consumable was of the finest quality.

Clandonian Orbital Space Station

“I will talk to the Lord Marshall about that. I’m his eyes and ears on this station.” said Thor before leaving the command centre. He walked side by side with the Clandonian Commander as they traveled to the Clandonian Officers Mess.

After arriving, Thor looked into the room. “I have never ate space food before.” he said. “But every day, something new happens to you.” He stepped in. “What type of food can I have?”

'Steak today with black paper cream sauce with a choice of olive oil fried fries or mixed vegatables. Also we have our own supply of Clandonian Ale on tap, but its under the two can rule when we are on military alerts.'

Three Boeing YAL-1 Airborne Laser systems were flying over Ackistan when the ortibal attack began. An enemy space shuttle, flying high over Ackistan, began launching advanced missiles in their direction.

It was immediately determined targeting the space shuttle with lasers would be pointless. The YAL-1's were designed to destroy missiles by heating them until the internal changes in pressure caused the missiles to explode. Testing had determined the YAL-1's were capable of destroying satellites with longer bursts from their weapons. They could not reliably destroy aircraft, and they were worthless against space shuttles designed to withstand the heat of reentering Earth's atmosphere.

The YAL-1's concentrated their efforts on destroying the incoming missiles. Initially, they had great success. Unfortunately, two of the YAL-1's had been in the air quite some time. The bulk of their laser fuel (gasses) had been used targeting Clandonia's satellites over Ackistan. After destroying a few incoming missiles each, they inevitably fell victim to Clandonia's missiles, and plummeted to the earth. The last YAL-1 was able to weather the attack, and returned to base.

Meanwhile, on the ground, two more YAL-1's were being prepped for launch.

Ackistani military command was fed up with these orbiting space shuttles. Already this shuttle had destroyed a number of Ackistani satellites, and now two very expensive YAL-1’s had been lost. Missile command was given the order to target the shuttle with four A-233 missiles. The missiles were designed to destroy orbiting ICBM’s, but they saw no reason why they wouldn’t work just as well against a space shuttle. After all, a bigger target should be easier to track and strike.

The guests and space station commander were interupted durring dinner, a young Lt. gave them the good news 'sir we shot down another ABL with the Titanium bolts, another one returned to base they will proberly try to send up more.'

'Good, order the next wave of shuttles to be sent in, target Ackistani forces on the primary target sheets. I think this time its their naval forces, if we sink those now it will be a glorious day for Space Command!'

Another two military shuttles departed as the ones that completed their mission went into a transglobal orbit to escape possible enemy targetting.

OOC: Ackistan sent me a TG, saying I was invited to participate. So I was going to contribute what was agreed with in the last thread. If there are other problems, let me know.

Clandonian Orbital Space Station

“Sounds good.” said Thor. “I just don’t drink alcohol.” After getting his food and a glass of sweet tea, Thor took a seat. He asked his food be blessed by the Lord, God, before eating.

He listened to the young man as he told the commander something. Something about Titanium bolts shooting down another ABL and attacking bases.

“That’s good news.” said Thor. “May the idiots fall for what they have done.”

Clandonian Dirdon Taskforce

'Sir our submarines are now in a firing position to hit the Ackistani navy. On your orders we can release a Tomahawk Storm to destroy their carrier group.'

'I will contact HQ, prepare tubes for launch.'

'Aye sir!'
The 16 associated class subs prepared to launch a volly of missiles at the enemy naval forces intent on wiping them out once and for all.

The missiles were sent flying from their underwater silos of the Clandonian navy heading towards the hostile carrier group, designed to destroy it in one large premptive strike.

Sailing along through space, the lovingly crafted remote controlled pod shot along at close to Mach 20. It's black, ceramically enameled alimunium made it invisible to most ground based surveillance. From space however, it was just like every 2 meter by 2 meter chunk of metal with high end radio transmitters.

It's brain was a collection of Pentium, Xerox, and IBM computer systems, all sandwhiched in a square foot processing board. The over the shelf machined systems were capable of precise calculations thousands of times greater than what was available during the lunar missions made by America decades ago.

And from a signal relayed by a private communications sattelite, it's brain woke up from standby. It received a very, very simple transmission, not really encrypted, but simply unique. First was a confirmation string to verify the single was meant for it, than the order string, a list of numbers for it to process and react to.

One of the panels on the body of the black vehicle unhinged, and inside was a coppery cone that was sent sailing in another direction away from the satellite.

Released with precision accuracy and a timed delay detonator, this copper cone was nothing more than a modified HEAT warhead. And what it could do in the vacuum of space looked amazing compared to what more powerful weapons did while on earth.

It got within range of it's target in a matter of seconds, and blew up in a singled direction. While the cap flew backwards on escape velocity, hundreds of copper needles were released on the aluminum and ceramic space vehicle it was meant to destroy, easily cutting through at their hypersonic speeds. Several compartments of the Clandonian space station were completely perforated and knocked out.

This one round was followed by two more, crisscrossing the length of the station, fully piercing every section.

Each of the Clandonian Shuttles was met by a similar round. A single charge would shoot through either the front or the back of a shuttle, piercing through sealed compartments, fuel tanks, air tanks, and heat shields.

The little black satellite confirmed launch. Other satellites would confirm the targets. The little black satellite changed it's confirm codes, adjusted it's trajectory, and than went back to standby.

Christoph Baker, head of Government for the Socialist Commonwealth State of Wanderjar, arrived at the space station to observe both Ackistan operations, and his own operations throughout the world.

'Welcome aboard Mr Baker, I am General Tetigen of the Clandonian Airfoce, I have been instructed to show you around this facility.'

The General shook hands with the new guest before pointing his arm out to gesture the way to walk from the shuttle docking area down to the main core.

"Thank you General. Might you lead the way?"

Upon hearing of the recent spate of attacks against Clandonia Prime satellites and space stations , 2 Silver Sky Orbital Weapons Platforms were dispatched to see if they could assist in anyway ...

'Indeed, this is the central hallway towards the central command centre where you can go and observe the conflict on the screens showing Clandonian military and other nations military status.'
