Seeing that Icovir and Beiraq have a conflicting border over the Persian Gulf, which Beiraq has long claimed as their own caused massive amounts of tension in Beiraq, which was not made public. Now, Icovir declared war on the CA, thus declaring war on The Grand Duchy of Beiraq. One thousand T-72's and an equal number of BMP-1's stormed over the Beiraqi-Icovirian border, supported by roughly 500,000 men of the National Army, and 30,000 Republican Guard units with 100 SA-11 and ZSU-23's to cover the air. Many more units would soon follow this first punch.

In the air above Icovir, 40 L-20 Yugoslavian made fighters provided cover as another 40 G4M Super Galeb light attack planes made runs on Icovirian supply depots along the border. Shells and missiles also streaked through the sky, aimed at any bases or radar positions near Beiraq, launched from fifty GHN-45 155mm Howitzers and a hundred Scud-B sites.

In Beiraq, even more tanks were preparing to be moved over the border to support the surprise attack.

ooc:may we aid you? I hate Icovir

Can I get involved as his only ally in this conflict?

I'll be the last one. Anyone who wants to come with me I'll tell them no.

OOC: Are you aware that he recently bought 5,000 state-of-the-art new Russian Tanks (Black Eagles)?

Along with over 2,000 Triple Mini-Guns, hundreds of thousands of Assault Rifles and stuff?

Can I get involved as his only ally in this conflict?

I'll be the last one. Anyone who wants to come with me I'll tell them no.

Can you not send a fuck load of tanks and all?

Can you not send a fuck load of tanks and all?

You really hated my Armor, didn't you?

lol, I'll be fair to your size. I'll only send two Divisions (500-750 Tanks) and 4infantry (100-300,000 infantry)

Not much, as far as I'm concerned. I think you can easily match it.

ill help Beiraq. just land at his place. He did it to me when I was offline.

How about less than a hundred thousand men, I am fighting his army too, and my army isn't that big.

ooc:may we aid you? I hate Icovir

Dude, you are fighting like 4 wars at the same time! How do you get enough money, men and vehicles/weapons to fight?

Dude, you are fighting like 4 wars at the same time! How do you get enough money, men and vehicles/weapons to fight?

Maldorians is in 2. TWSP, and his land.

How about less than a hundred thousand men, I am fighting his army too, and my army isn't that big.

Alright. Let me draw up a ORBAT and I'll give it to you in a sec. :)

OOC: War is good.

Yes, the Persian Gulf is a lovely territory. How about the winner get's control of the Persian Gulf (of course)?

Also, remember that Maldorians didn't give me his map and said that I DIDN'T land in his country yet, so my troops are still at bay on the Isle of Icovir (33,700,000 troops, subtract the 60,000 national guard troops).

IC: Icovir was hit hard by the surprise attack. 70 civilians killed by Beiraq soldiers, and 100 National Guard troops killed.

"DAMN! DAMN! DAMN!" screamed the Emperor after hearing of the surprise attack.

"You mean you just let them march into the capitol, killing anyone they please?! Send in the stored ships prepared for the Invasion of Galmiria war, and have those troops fight along with the National Guard! Arm 'em with the new weapons we got from the Soviet Storefront, those should be on the ships.".

General Mudarrisun Al-Bakr, charge of the Imperial Air Force, sent some of the Air force to air raid the capitol of Beiraq. Launch was schedule in 3 hours.

The ships at the Isle of Icovir who were waiting to sail to Maldorians rushed to the capitol of Icovir. They landed in the Bay of the Nigel and troops were rushing to the capitol.

Meanwhile, tanks were rolling ahead of the foot soldiers and some of the soldiers on humvees.

Black Eagles, 5,000 purchased, but 1,000, prepared for the raid of Maldorians, rushed to the capitol.

Beiraq is goiong to regret messing with Icovir.

OOC: Troop numbers being posted very soon.

((ooc: I'd like to join...Ivocir is somewhat of an ally with their aide in the Galmiria conflict. It would strictly be an air war for Morgiland, nothing more.))

Wanderjarian Forces had never withdrawn from the region. 30,000 Infantrymen from the war in Beiraq had remained with the fleet stationed there. These Marines, in addition to the 500 K-1 Tanks, and 50 Behemoth IIs they had with them, immediately landed on Icovir to defend their ally.


The K-1 was the Wanderjarian Medium Battle Tank. Built on an M-1 Chasis, it carried two 120mm Cannons, to provide twice the already formidable firepower of the M1A2 Abrams. The Wanderjarian Army would also be sending in 50,000 Army personnel to asist in the defense, however these would take another seven hours to arrive.

The Wanderjarian Commanders, Lieutenant General Fredrick Dean and Admiral Sam Atwell, would begin launching assaults immediately. This would begin with the Wanderjarian SSNs launching numerous Tomahawk missiles at incoming enemy troops, as well as Wanderjarian Battleships using their sophisitcated Weapons systems to fire long range artillery at enemy positions. This would have to do until the Wanderjarian EXCALIBER system Artillery could arrive....

If Beiraq wanted Icovir, they'd have to deal with their ally too.


(OOC: Sorry rather crappy post, don't have much time to go into extreme detail....)

OOC: For more info on my tanks and such, check the soviet storefront. That's where I got most of my weapons.

IC: Troops planning to launch for Maldorians are now headed for the capitol. Along with them, another 4,000 troops activated (Army only, weren't planned to head for war).

Number of Soldiers (Army, Marines, Air Force, and National Guard) fighting during this attack on home soil:
33,704,000 soldiers.

Number of National Guard Troops: 8,455,000

Number of Naval Troops (now fighting on land, Marines and naval personnel fighting on land): 8,300,000

Number of Army Troops: 9,069,000

Number of Air Force fighters: 8,000,000

Number of Tanks deployed (more activated than in the previous planned war, this number is integrated into number of Army troops):
1,500 Black Eagle tanks that can hold 3 crew members.

All ground troops are armed with (EITHER):
Makarov PMM's
AN-94 "Abakan"s
AK-74M's
AK-108's
SV-98's
RPG-29's (anti-tank, might I add)

Defense positions will be set up (bunkers, etc.). They will be guarded with:
Triple Minigun "Chainsaw"s

Air Force Fighters are armed with
Air-To-Air Missiles
Torpedoes
Harpoon Missiles (to defend against ships)
Aircraft-mounted Machine Guns

Tanks are armed with:
Artillery Guns
Tank Guns
Heavy Armor

Submarines (part of the naval personnel total) are armed with:
Torpedoes
Cruise Missiles
CAPTOR Mines

Air Force fighters have been launched into the skies of Icovir to fight off some of the aircraft of Beiraq. They have taken off 10 minutes ago, and should "rendez-vous" with Beiraqi aircraft in a matter of minutes.

All ground troops of Icovir are due to arrive in the capitol (from empty desert-land) in 1 hour (IC hours)

Ground troops had maximum protection against tanks, for they had their newly acquired RPG-29's. This war was going to be won easily, and with her allies help, with minimum casualties.

Icovir will surely maintain her hold over the Persian Gulf.

OOC: 33 million troops? Yea right

IC:

Griffencrest loaned Patriot batteries snapped to life, hitting many of the Tomahawks as they came down, still, several got through and landed amongst the soldiers, killing or wounding a few hundred men. Brom batteries on the coast immediatly opened up at the battleships, launching their cruise missiles out into the gulf.

President Chalabi issued a warning to the Wanderjarian fleet.

"We have recently tested a nuclear weapon, and will deploy it against your fleet, withdraw it immediatly, or it will be used"

President Chalabi issued a warning to the Wanderjarian fleet.

In response, the Wanderjarian Admiral said, "If you use a nuke on us, we shall use many more on you. Nothing in your nation shall be spared, and it will be turned into a Wanderjarian Slave State, not a Commonwealth State as most are. Think long and hard about this course of action. We shall not withdraw." Ten Wanderjarian Sattelites armed themselves and aimed their ordinance of dozens of nuclear warheads at Beiraq. Dominator Class Rail Cannons armed themselves as well, preparing to fire thousands of their enourmous high explosive shells, raining hell upon the Beiraqis. If one nuclear weapon was launched agains Wanderjarian forces, Beiraq would cease to exist.

IMO you should complement that with other more "common" Machine guns such as M2s, MG-42 or whatever is the standard HMG in your country. The Saws eat through ammo stocks faster than a hungry locust through a field.

[END]

As part of its alliance with Icovir the Scandinvan Empire has decided to provide aide finical, in resource, and in arms. As well, if needed the Empire shall directly intervene in this war and destroy the aggressor for the sake of their ally. So the Emperor went on television before the House of Lords and said,” Citizens of the Empire today a ally of our nation has been attacked by the never ending evil of the Corporate Alliance. Yet, we may not be attacked right now we most not allow them to attack friends and allies of the Empire and this today I and the House of Lords have begun send aide to Icovir and will continue to do so until their enemy is driven out of their lands.”

So now the Empire had sent the first wave of aide in which was 2.1 trillion USD, fifteen million tons of food, 8000 doctors, 12,000 nurses, 6000 Crusader Tanks, 1800 F-18s, 2200 F-16s, two million medium missiles, 6000 artillery pieces, three million M-16s, 200,000 machine guns, 4200 Comanche, and 1800 Black Hawks.

In response, the Wanderjarian Admiral said, "If you use a nuke on us, we shall use many more on you. Nothing in your nation shall be spared, and it will be turned into a Wanderjarian Slave State, not a Commonwealth State as most are. Think long and hard about this course of action. We shall not withdraw." Ten Wanderjarian Sattelites armed themselves and aimed their ordinance of dozens of nuclear warheads at Beiraq. Dominator Class Rail Cannons armed themselves as well, preparing to fire thousands of their enourmous high explosive shells, raining hell upon the Beiraqis. If one nuclear weapon was launched agains Wanderjarian forces, Beiraq would cease to exist.


I didnt say I would use it on you. We can easily hit an Icovirian concentration with a nuclear tipped Scud.

OOC: Yes, but IC I have to assume you mean me unless you expect otherwise ;)

I'm not going to nuke you unless you pop one off on me. But PLEASE don't. It makes the RP go so bad after words.

300 F-3 JugunHawks roared through the skies over Ivocir, the green, white, and black of the Fatherland could be seen for miles on the under-belly of the fighter jets.

The tight formation made its way deeper toward the main assault front of the Beiraqi forces. Intelligence had spotted the main tank force just 5 minutes away. A Lutenit glanced out of the cockpit, the new aiming system built directly into the visor had locked onto a grouping of tanks.

Sweating with anticipation the captain moved the safety lock from the detonator. As the five minutes expired the red button was depressed and 300 air-to-surface cruise missiles were released from their planes.

ooc: Since there was no complaints...

Morgian AirForse

500: B-1 Atlas Bombers
500: B-2 Sky Wolf Bombers
2,000: F-1 Hawk
2,500: F-3 JuggenHawk
1,000: H-8 Hog Refueling Tankers

Leafanistan, we would gladly accept your offer. These upgrades would be incredibly beneficial to the tanks, and we have readied the money to be wired to your account.

OOC: 33 million troops? Yea right


OOC: I did have those in store for the Maldorians, no lie! My pop. is 674 Million people, and around 33 million is 5% of that (raised to 5.5%). Of course, some of them weren't activated. But an attack on home soil most likely would prompt activation of all of the military, no?


IC:

Griffencrest loaned Patriot batteries snapped to life, hitting many of the Tomahawks as they came down, still, several got through and landed amongst the soldiers, killing or wounding a few hundred men. Brom batteries on the coast immediatly opened up at the battleships, launching their cruise missiles out into the gulf.

2 ships were destroyed by the cruise missiles from the Brom batteries. On board were 1,500 Naval personnel on each ship, prepared to set sail for Maldorians.

CASUALTIES OF THE ATTACK: 3,000 men and woman.

General Najmun Tarqui, General of the Navy, has ordered non-activated ships to become activated. 2 ships were activated. Naval personnel who were originally headed for Maldorians were ordered to board these activated ships and begin fighting in the sea.



President Chalabi issued a warning to the Wanderjarian fleet.

"We have recently tested a nuclear weapon, and will deploy it against your fleet, withdraw it immediatly, or it will be used"

Icovir had plans to build nuclear bombs many years ago. This threat comes in time, as Icovir was planning a nuclear test by next month. But, since this threat has been made known to us against our allies, Icovir plans to "test" the nuclear weapon on the Beiraqi naval fleet. If this "test" succeeds, there will most likely be many casualties, increasing our advantage over the sea battles.

Granted, not as powerful as other nuclear weapons as we haven't completely modified them, for we must use them quickly.

OOC-I wouldn't mind getting involved in this (it seems me and Wanderjar are on a proxy war spree), the problem is that me deploying usually means at least 2 million troops and a fleet, and this is meant to be small..

Also, nuclear weapons don't always make a war bad. They make a war bad if, say, a hundred of them are used? They make them bad if a single n00k means losing your entire nation? They make them bad when a person is n00k'd and doesn't seem to feel any wave of,"Holy shit n00kage", if you know what I mean. N00kz are a part of roleplay. They are a real weapon of war, and Beiraq seems like the kind who would use them if he felt threatened. Rather than completely whipe him out for it, realize that it is a part of the Roleplay. No one likes to be whiped out because they decided to use a strategical weapon.

So, I think that unless someone uses massn00kage, nothing more than when and if you win, you hold him accountable for it.

Your Defense budget is only 36 billion dollars. Unless you just hand each guy an AK-47, and have nothing else, your army cant be that size.

OOC: True that, I'll modify the amount of troops.

How about cutting them down by 5,000,000? So now there's around 28,000,000 troops.

OOC: True that, I'll modify the amount of troops.

Dude, thats like... a lot!

See, my army, if I used 3% of my pop. would be around 21 Million, but I only use 1% (around 7 Million).

How many ships and planes do you expect to have with a military that size, training alone costs several thousand dollars per man.

Republican Guard forces had no problems dispersing the armed rabble that Icovir had thrown at them. Beiraqi casualties stood at one dead, four wounded. Mounds of Icovirians lay stacked around the field, a testament both to the training of the Republican Guards and the power of the BMP-1's autocannon.

In the air, the Yugoslavian Galeb attackers continued raking the enemy forces, and laying waste to depots and defensive positions. Mi-24 attack choppers now also took off, headed to strike the rabble and support the Republican Guard advance ahead of the National Army.

Scud missiles continued to pour down onto Icovirian positions, as well as several cities now, causing a panic wherever they fell.

(OOC: Most Western style armies with a all-volunteer force have at most one percent of the population enlisted in the various military services. More than that and you'll have a sizable percentage of the optimum workforce engaged in activities [i.e. the military, which isn't the highest paying of professions to begin with] that do nothing to aid the economy. Beiraq, another thing, most people tend not to follow what NStracker or Thirdgeek says to the letter, as both can be inaccurate at times and heavily dependent on issues. Now, I'm assuming this is your first war, judging by your post counts [feel free to contradict me if I'm wrong], so I'd like to step in as a moderator of sorts for this RP to ensure everything goes smoothly, if that's fine with all the parties involved.)

Well, I fought Wanderjar, but BC kinda took over for me and used his own men, and I was in TWSP, but got stuck in a pocket and brutalized, and now am just helping to hold a northern city

Ok, modified troop numbers:

Total troops in the war:
10,740,000 (about 2% of the population I'm guessing)

Total National Guard troops:
2,685,000

Total Naval Troops:
2,675,000

Total Air Force Fighters:
2,600,000

Total Army Troops:
2,784,000

OOC: 5,000 tanks were brought, but there are only 200 tanks deployed (integrated into "Total Army Troops" and "National Guard Troops". Each tank holds 3 men).

Leafanistan, we would gladly accept your offer. These upgrades would be incredibly beneficial to the tanks, and we have readied the money to be wired to your account.

We also accept. We hope for continued business.

(OOC: A volunteer army, or a well-equipped and supplied army, would certainly expect far less than 1% of the population in its ranks, but in time of such major war as this volunteer numbers would presumably climb and the draft would come in... but not instantly, by any means! So long as it's remembered that such an army will consist of men not only with limited support and mechanisation and what not, but also with a different class of training, all should be well (basic training that any old draftee can get through will mean that most troops can't actually look another human being in the face and end his life, and will fight to scare the enemy rather than kill him).

But I digress, because that's not why I'm here! Still, Yugoslavia can't get too heavily involved- I RP with a realistic population, and we've only thirty million people, never mind troops!

I was just wondering- those T-72s, I assume they're already upgraded in light of the packages that Yugoslavia offered? They'll already have more powerful engines, improved fire-control, thermal imagers, possibly reactive armour, and all that.

Seems like the BMP-1 upgrade is really just turning it into a fancy BMP-2. BMP-2 isn't really a replacement for BMP-1, but best used in conjunction with it, and getting rid of the BMP-1's low-velocity gun/missile system entirely seems at best a mixed development.)

The Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia

News of Beiraq's war landed heavily in Belgrade. The economic boon of Beiraqi military purchases from the Socialist Federal Republic could be regarded differently in light of this aggression, but the federation was quick to seek the best possible spin on the conflict.

Foreign and Information Secretary Milutinov was quick to tell Lebadad of Yugoslav support for their war effort, if a little less keen to advertise it to the rest of the world! Beiraqi currency and resources being important to the Yugoslavian economy and in smoothing-over ethno-political cracks, Belgrade couldn't send technicians quickly enough. "We shall provide spare-parts and service crews to sustain L-20 and G-4 aircraft for as long as they survive and the war lasts" the Secretary promised in a communiqué to the Beiraqi capital, "and will furnish munitions for Orkan/Ababil rocket batteries at-cost so as not to restrict their use in this unfortunate conflict."

At home, Yugoslav forces were placed on a slightly increased state of alert, but no obvious effort was made towards preparing to actually join battle.

The public as yet had too little information on which to form a serious opinion over the war or Yugoslav support for the Beiraqi cause.

But I digress, because that's not why I'm here! Still, Yugoslavia can't get too heavily involved- I RP with a realistic population, and we've only thirty million people, never mind troops!

OOC: I'm offering a better one, and a newer gun. As for the BMP upgrades, what use is a low-pressure, short range, 73mm gun? A 30mm Autocannon, MG and new ATGMs are a major improvement. Instead of perhaps destroying enemy APCs/IFVs at close range, you have the ability to destroy enemy APCs and IFVs at long range without the need to constantly reload. But hey, it is up to Beiraqi, he'll probably upgrade his elite units and use his BMP-1/2s to complement his BMP-1s.

The Wanderjarian Army, dug in and ready to fight, waited for the Beiraqi forces to arrive. Sattelites pinpointed enemy troop movements for the Artillery Officers, who aimed their M198 Howitzers in their direction. Armed with EXCALIBER Artillery shells, these Artillery cannons could hit any target to within seven feet. If the target moved, the shell could change its direction up to 180 degrees to hit it. Escaping Wanderjarian Shells would be impossible. Thousands of these shells were deployed as hundreds of cannons pounded round after round at the enemy forces.


Wanderjarian Naval Aviators began taking to the air from the Nimitz Class Aircraft Carriers in the Persian Gulf, F/A-18s by the dozens began strafing enemy lines, firing Air to Surface Missiles at armored columns and supply shipments.

F-99 Fighters took to the skies as well, targeting enemy aircraft from afar, while F-88 Ghosts, stealth bombers created to be superior to the F-117 Nighthawk, using the advanced Archangel Stealth system for cancelling enemy radar waves. Fifty of these aircraft took to the skies, flying towards Beiraqi airspace to bomb enemy installations. All this was done still yet, under the cover of the F-99s and their clearing of enemy fighters.


The Beiraqi forces would not be able to withstand the Wanderjarian Onslaught.

Official Clandonian Response
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/madnukedude/clandoniansmallflag.png

To the Icovirian Government:

We see your plight and are prepared to deploy forces in your aid to help construct defences. Our government is also in the light of the Beiraqi nuclear threat prepared to aid in possible defence. At your permision we are prepared to send elements from 1st Rapid Reaction Combat Enginering Deployment Division a force of 20,000 to construct defences, they also command a small force of 80 Combat Engineer Vehicle, Mark III, "Stallion" tanks and 20 Chinooks.

If the situation were to worsen we will consider deploying combat troops along with naval and aviation forces.

Icovir thanks Cladonia Prime for their support in Icovir's troubles with Beiraq.

Icovir has reinstated the draft, last used in the short-lived war with UCN (before all then-government officials were overthrown and the nation changed it type of government). The first draftees were going into the Imperial Navy.

Air Force Fighters continued to fight in the skies, with many dropping down on both sides. One pilot, knowing his fighter was going down, launched an air-to-air missile at a target aircraft. Once it hit, he aimed for another aircraft and flew his plane straight into it, ending his and the other pilot's life.

The Naval Battles just began. Icovir is vunerable at it's oceans, so Icovir must focus on the naval battles just as much as the ground battles. 3 ships, with crews of 1,000 each, were taken off, headed for the Beiraqi fleet. They took off 50 minutes ago.

The ground troops finally arrived in Chezck (location of first attack by Beiraqi forces). The tanks arrived first, then the humvees followed.

The troops quickly got out of the humvees and began building trenches and bunkers. Each bunker was guarded with Triple Miniguns, along with the 626 Halgorians, Icovir's own HMG.

Tanks took the frontmost positions, the positions closest to the enemies. If Beiraq wanted the Persian Gulf, they must pass through and conquer Chezck. That's where the troops were posted, and leaflets were dropped by 3 aircraft telling of an iminent bombing of the area once the Beiraq troops arrive.

100 tanks took frontmost positions
50 tanks were 1 mile behind them
and 50 more tanks were 1 mile behind those.

Behind the tanks were 3,000 troops were guarding the city. They were in trenches, bunkers, anti-aircraft towers, and in guard towers.

5 miles ahead were the Wanderjarian forces. Every hour, the Icovirian troops would move up (setting up bunker and trench positions just in case the enemy pushes them back towards them, so they will be able to use them). The next hour, they would move up again. They moved up 1 mile every hour until they were integrated with the Wanderjarian forces.

Why did they do this? So that they were planning ahead just in case they get pushed back by Beiraqi forces. They would then have a place to hide and attack from.

Meanwhile, 5 air force fighters, loaded with bombs, were prepared to fly to the Beiraqi-Icovirian border, and bomb that area. General Mudarrisun Al-Bakr (head of the Air Force) knew that all Beiraqi airfighters were too busy fighting with the Icovirian Air Force over the capitol of Madinah and around the areas of the Persian Gulf. So, Icovirian air forces were going to fly north, down to the Beiraqi-Icovirian border, and drop bombs on the Beiraqi forces.

From the Aisle of Icovir, the nuclear bomb was prepared to attack at any minute. As per the agreements of the UCN (of which Icovir is an affliate), Icovir will not launch it's nuclear bomb (untested) unless Beiraq launches their's first.

But the air raids over the Beiraqi-Icovirian border (of the Persian Gulf, where Beiraqi troops are suspected to be) will come to be, and possible air raids of Chezck will also come to be.

OOC: I'm offering a better one, and a newer gun. As for the BMP upgrades, what use is a low-pressure, short range, 73mm gun? A 30mm Autocannon, MG and new ATGMs are a major improvement. Instead of perhaps destroying enemy APCs/IFVs at close range, you have the ability to destroy enemy APCs and IFVs at long range without the need to constantly reload. But hey, it is up to Beiraqi, he'll probably upgrade his elite units and use his BMP-1/2s to complement his BMP-1s.

OOC: Seems like you're not really upgrading the T-72s, but replacing them. If you're changing not just the engine and systems but also the gun itself and the basic armour, you're leaving what, the tracks and suspension? The much-cheaper Yugoslav upgrades achieve almost the same result, and a brand-new tank can be bought for the price of your overhaul. But, hey, it's not my decision to make.

The BMPs, though... what, you think that the 73mm gun is low-pressure because the USSR couldn't do better? It's a totally and deliberately different weapon to the 30mm cannon, with utility against soft and fixed targets, while the associated missile gives the anti-armour capacity. The 73mm HEAT projectile is rocket-assisted and good for anti-tank work beyond a kilometre (even if the ammunition is getting a little old by now- it could presumably be uprated), thus the total lack of need for a high-pressure system. As I said, BMP-1 works best along-side 30mm-armed BMP-2 or such vehicles.
Still, the BMP-1 is old and in need of updating, I just wouldn't dismiss the value of a multi-role armament of its sort quite so readily. It looks like Beiraq's going to need to keep some things cheap and use a lot of them and use them well.

Sorry, we could go on about these pros and cons for ever, hey? On with the war, however you see fit to fight it.

also, Im sending 10,000 troops to Icovir

As soon as the order was recieved the Rapid Reaction force was readied for deployment asap. Force would be on the way within 24 hours to construct a new runway for allied forces by the end of the week and to possibly set up a Clandonian base with the permision of the Icovirians if the situation worsened.

The plan was to construct defences, extend airport capacity and with the force it was hoped it would be completed quickly.

The first set of 20 C-5 Galaxy and C-17 Globemasters prepared to set off bound for Icovir.

Icovir thanks Galmiria for it's support in this war and it's sending troops to us.

All ISF troops currently operating in Maldorians are scheduled for a retreat in 2 hours. TOTAL ISF TROOPS OPERATING IN MALDORIANS CALLED TO OPERATE IN BEIRAQ: 400.

All ships taken off for Maldorians have been redirecting to head for the Persian Gulf and defend Icovir Naval-wise. TOTAL SHIPS CALLED TO DEFEND THE PERSIAN GULF: 4 (total men: 4,000)

Military numbers have increased (due to draft and population increase).

The total number of troops (air force, navy, army, and national guard) activated now are 11,620,000 (about 1.5% of the population)

The government of Icovir directed more money into the Icovirian military, so we have enough to fund their training and weapons.

These troops have been arranged into all areas, mainly the Imperial Navy.

There are enough troops now in the Imperial Navy to send out 2 more ships (3,000 troops altogether) and 10 more submarines (20 soldiers per submarine) to defend and attack in the Persian Gulf.

The planned airstrike of the Beiraqi-Icovirian border (and a mile into the border) has been launched. The air force fighters have just flown over The Nashplodmick Strip (OOC: The part of Russia that Icovir controls) and is now headed for the planned air raid target.

MESSAGE IN MORSE CODE:
FROM: THE EMPEROR OF THE GREAT IMPERIAL FEDERATION OF ICOVIR, EMPEROR VICTOR I
TO: GALMIRIA AND CLADONIA PRIME'S GENERALS

Icovir thanks her allies for helping her. Icovir finds that the best place for your troops to be deployed will be at Chezck.

Chezck is a major city, currently being guarded by Wanderjarian and Icovirian forces. Beiraq's goal is to take complete control of the Persian Gulf. If they take control of Chezck, then the Persian Gulf will be lost.

Please, deploy your troops at Chezck, and prepare yourselves for a full onslaught on Beiraq after we drive the scum out of Icovir.

ooc:how did you do that code thing???


IC: The 10,000 brave Galmirians went in the soggy transports on the long journey towards Icovir.

**FLASH**
TO ALLIED FORCES
Orders recieved, our forces will and there and begin construction of a base. We are activating our forces and preparing to re-deploy the 16th Air Assault Brigade and the 1st Artillery Brigade.

Bomber and naval forces are re-suppling after our previous engagement and will be on their way soon. If all goes well we should have an operational airfield allowing us to bring in the 1st Armoured Division.

OOC-Beiraq asked to keep it small. I see three new people since last night that have joined on Icovir's side.

ill join on the other person's side.

((OOC: Can I join? I'll keep it small...three or four Tocrowkian divisions...that's all.))

Zukariaa;11822447']OOC-Beiraq asked to keep it small. I see three new people since last night that have joined on Icovir's side.

OOC: Lol, ya. A lot of nations. Good thing I have allies!

IC: The air force bombers hooked down towards the Beiraqi-Icovirian peninsula.

"This is Captain Lock, we're swooping down to target now" reported the captain to General Mudarrisun Al-Bakr.

"Good, now complete your mission" replied the General.

"Roger, over and out. Listen up soldiers! We're gonna bomb the hell outta the scum that's invaded our nation! Drop all your bombs on 'em and let 'em burn, just like they did to us!"

"SIR YES SIR!" replied the rest of the bombers.

They were speeding towards the border, and were only 1 minute away from it.

"READY........." the Captain said, 50 seconds later.

"COMMENCE OPERATION FLANK!" were the words the Captain said before he started dropping his load of bombs, along with the other 4 bombers.

Meanwhile, on the ground, the troops had finally reached Wanderjarian forces without any attacks. Now, Wanderjarian and Icovirian forces protected the border and the major city of Chezck.

More tanks were sent out to defend Chezck, and they were due to rendez-vous with the other tanks defending the city in 3 hours.

100 more tanks were sent out to defend Chezck. TOTAL TANKS DEFENDING CHEZCK AND THE BEIRAQI-ICOVIRIAN BORDER: 300.

More tanks and troops were ordered to defend the Arabian peninsula. The Beiraqi troops wouldn't likely reach there, however. They had to get through the 7 ships defending the Persian Gulf OR break through the Wanderjarian Forces and Icovirian Forces protecting the east corder of Icovir and Chezck.

But, that could happen, so troops were ordered into Najmun Ifajr, the closest major city to the Beiraqi border in the Arabian Peninsula. There was a medium probability that Beiraqi forces may try to break through there, so some troops were posted there.

100 tanks were defending there, along with 7 naval ships (3 defending the peninsula and 4 defending the Persian Gulf) and 1,000 troops, newly activated.

They set up bunkers, and had some Triple Miniguns to defend them. They didn't use the Icovirian-made HMG, for those were currently being used for defending Chezck. The Triple Miniguns should hold them off, though.

100 Air Force Fighters were deployed to patrol the skies of the Arabian Peninsula.

Meanwhile, the air fighting continued between Icovir and Beiraq. 20 mor Icovirian air fighters fell to the Beiraqi Air Forces. But, many Beiraqi fighters also fell, numbers are unknown as of now.

TOTAL ICOVIRIAN CASUALTIES (so far) IN THE WAR FOR THE PERSIAN GULF: 3,500

Icovir realizes that too many troops are deployed for them to become good, low-maintenence soldiers.

Therefore, less troops will be activated during this war.

TOTAL TROOPS ACTIVATED DURING THIS WAR:
1,750,000

With this number, Icovirian troops can still defend Icovir and attack the Beiraqis with enough manpower. Also, this allows some troops to have 2 weapons, allowing them to have more ammo each day and allowing them to continuing fighting in battles.

Also, since we have many allies, we can also depend on them helping us. Therefore, the reason for the troop numbers dropping is so that soldiers are better equipped and so that some soldiers have 2 weapons (and snipers some snipers will have AK-108's [assault rifle] and sniper rifles instead of Makarov's [pistol] and sniper rifles.).

This also allows for more tank divisions. Since less funding will be needed for supporting ground troops, we'll be increasing the number of tanks to come in.

Currently, there are only 600 tanks deployed in this war for Icovir. Icovir will increase these numbers to 1,500 tanks. 700 tanks will defend the Arabian Peninsula along with other foot soldiers (2,000), and the major city of Chezck will be defended by 800 Icovirian tanks along with other foot soldiers (3,000).

This is logistics, and Icovir can support this number of tanks with minimul difficulties. We cannot deploy, however, our full force of Black Eagle tanks (5,000) for Icovir will not be able to fund for all the repair vehicles and such needed to maintain the tanks' strength.

Also, Air Force troops have been reduced to 500,000 air force fighters.

Naval troops have been reduced to 600,000 Naval Personnel.

The National Guard has been merged with the Imperial Army, therefore the combined total of the Imperial Army and National Guard is 650,000

In a nutshell: Troop numbers have been lowered to support soldiers with better equipement and to arm some soldiers with 2 weapons (a sniper and assault rifle for snipers).

More tanks can be supported now that troop numbers have been lowered. Tanks numbers have raised from 600 to 3,000. 1,300 tanks are defending the Arabian Peninsula, while 1,700 tanks are defending the city of Chezck and the Beiraqi-Icovirian border.

Well, since you got all these allies, I'll join to counter Wanderjar's men. Howver many men he has I'll match, sound fair?

O yea, Icovir, you can't afford to have that many men and expect an air force and fleet. Beiraq's defense spending crushes yours, and his military is far far smaller.

I'll edit my troop numbers.

How can I increase my military spending?

Seeing that Icovir and Beiraq have a conflicting border over the Persian Gulf, which Beiraq has long claimed as their own caused massive amounts of tension in Beiraq, which was not made public. Now, Icovir declared war on the CA, thus declaring war on The Grand Duchy of Beiraq. One thousand T-72's and an equal number of BMP-1's stormed over the Beiraqi-Icovirian border, supported by roughly 500,000 men of the National Army, and 30,000 Republican Guard units with 100 SA-11 and ZSU-23's to cover the air. Many more units would soon follow this first punch.

In the air above Icovir, 40 L-20 Yugoslavian made fighters provided cover as another 40 G4M Super Galeb light attack planes made runs on Icovirian supply depots along the border. Shells and missiles also streaked through the sky, aimed at any bases or radar positions near Beiraq, launched from fifty GHN-45 155mm Howitzers and a hundred Scud-B sites.

In Beiraq, even more tanks were preparing to be moved over the border to support the surprise attack.
OOC: Hey! I was going to invade Icovir first! But, if I involve myself here everyone (at least half of them...) will begin to complain, won't they.

Also, if you invaders are scared of a T-95, you should allow me to ship you some of mine... Remember those, Wanderjar? I got better ones...

As part of its alliance with Icovir the Scandinvan Empire has decided to provide aide finical, in resource, and in arms. As well, if needed the Empire shall directly intervene in this war and destroy the aggressor for the sake of their ally. So the Emperor went on television before the House of Lords and said,” Citizens of the Empire today a ally of our nation has been attacked by the never ending evil of the Corporate Alliance. Yet, we may not be attacked right now we most not allow them to attack friends and allies of the Empire and this today I and the House of Lords have begun send aide to Icovir and will continue to do so until their enemy is driven out of their lands.”

So now the Empire had sent the first wave of aide in which was 2.1 trillion USD, fifteen million tons of food, 8000 doctors, 12,000 nurses, 6000 Crusader Tanks, 1800 F-18s, 2200 F-16s, two million medium missiles, 6000 artillery pieces, three million M-16s, 200,000 machine guns, 4200 Comanche, and 180 Black Hawks.bump

OOC: Do you really want to commit troops to a foreign conflict, when I'm less than a day away from declaring war on you?

Check your TG's if you're confused.

OOC: So uhhh... Yeah, let's get back to RPing, shall we? lol

I still gotta know how many casualties my air bombings by 5 aircraft at the Beiraqi-Icovirian border caused. It's logical because you sent your air force to battle my air force, so you were preoccupied. This mission was top secret, so you wouldn't have known until I got at least 5 miles close to your troops. By then, it'll be too late, since I would've bombed you anyway before your fighters came. So how many casualties did that cause Beiraq?

IC: General Mudarrisun Al-Bakr cheered. The air raid was a success! They had dented a hole in the Beiraqi troop positions, about which he had telegramed Wanderjar.

Air raid a success, move up your lines, we'll move our's up. Attack Beiraqi troops head on

Icovirian troops picked up their gear and began moving forward along with the tanks and Wanderjarian forces.

Icovir cannot fight 3 enemies on her soil, so she must destroy at least one enemy before the other's arrive....

The Wanderjarian Commanders acknowleged this, and proceeded to order their Armor Divisions to advance under the cover of their Artillery. Wanderjarian Motorized Infantry moved behind them, ready to mop up anything the Armor Missed.



To: TPF

The Excaliber shell is 1,000,000 dollars for 5 shells. Expensive, but well worth the price. For 5 of these shells, you get the worth of 100 regular ones.

OOC: Just fyi Icovir, certain SAMs and AWACS can detect aircraft from 100 miles away or more, depending on the radar signature of the aircraft(stealth aircraft can get a good deal closer before detection). So to say the attack succeeded like that would really only be applicable if he didn't have either of those set up around there. It would be a good idea to have had those aircraft armed with at least a few beyond visual range missiles(to hit any possible AWACS and escorting aircraft), and at least a few aircraft having HARM missiles(missiles that target radar stations on the ground). This would have allowed you to take out deterrents, as long as they weren't concentrated heavily.

I'll be making a post on aircraft combat soon, I'll make sure I give you a link.

Also, I still have my troops in Icovir. I can get involved if you wish, or not.

OOC: Maldorians dropped out of it, so it was us vs. Beiraq. He probably needs another ally.

IC: "Let's try to finish this war quick and easy, we have the upper hand" said the Emperor.
"What's the reports on those air battles?"

"Same things, your majesty" said General Josh Natock, second-in-command of Icovir's Military (second to the emperor).

"No reports?"

"None, sir. But I believe Beiraq has more air fighters in left".

"Dammit, send in more air force fighters. Activate 100 more air force troops and send in 100 more fighters to fight in those skies. The nuclear bomb is ready, correct?"

"Yes sir"

"Great, remember that it is a last resort. If Beiraq uses nuclear weapons, we use it, ok?

As for now, order the troops to move up to the Beiraqi-Icovirian border. Icovir and Wanderjar have some interesting plans for the scum. Order more tanks into the area. Order 100 more tanks, and take out 150 troops guarding the Arabian Peninsula. This way, we can fund for the tanks without too much loss.

Order 20 air force troops to give us some air support over Beiraq as we advance, we may need an iminent strike. They may be struck down, but that will be a good decoy. Arm them with some High Speed Anti Radar missiles and missiles that hit beyond visual range. We're entering hostile skies.

Order the Navy to continue guarding the Persian Gulf. We know the scum want this piece of land, so remember to keep it well guarded. We don't have enough naval personnel to add one ship into the area, so order the navy to get precisely 1 Icovrian Cargo Ship length, got it?"

"Sir yes sir." said General Natock before following the Emperor's orders.

"No wonder the Emperor is in charge of the military" Natock thought before radioing the Generals of the Army, Navy, and Air Force to tell them of the Emperor's orders.

Also, Beiraq, did you respond to my airstrike?

Good idea, I should arm by aircraft with those weapons. But, I assumed he didn't have any aircraft-seeking stealth weapons or anti-aircraft guns, since he just stormed and attacked.

Also, it would be a good idea to have you help with some air support and for you to donate some troops for our rush to the Beiraqi border.

Technically, you wouldn't be involved in this war since you were really there for "peacekeeping" and the peace has been disturbed.

Encrypted Transmission to Beiraq

The Leafanistani Government has a vested interest in your country's continued well-being.

We hearby want to relinquish every single Type-72K Tank in our country's vast arsenal to your nation, along with every single AK-74 in our country's Civil Defense Reserve to replace them with the easier to repair AR-550.

The Type-72K is equivalent to the T-72 upgrade General Resources offered you.

In fact, I've designed AA/EWACs style aircrafts with a detection range of over 500 km, as well as an air-to-air missile ranged at about 384 km. The Silver Sky, Whyatica, Velkya and somebody else have designed one ranged at over 1000 km.

And I think there are already a couple of threads out on air combat, like this one (http://www.forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=415156); this (http://forums2.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=380336) may help as well, although it's much more general.

I sometimes think everyone should start by reading everything in the International Incidents Consolidation Sticky before starting to roleplay. It may take a while, but it'll prevent things like this from happening all the time...

General Marcus Diamondhilt was sitting in his office in Lebadad, Beiraq, reviewing numerous maps when a young aide came in to inform him of the surprise attack. Diamondhilt had fifteen thousand men in Beiraq as well as a number of armour and air assets. They would all be thrown into the chaos to the south, hopefully shattering another of these worthless lemmings.

In the air, one hundred GAF Gnats, supported by fifty F-4 Phatom II's blasted to the sky. Upon crossing the vast desert expanse the was the Beiraqi-Icovirian border, they pilots scanned the ground for enemy positions. Any front line supply depots would be destroyed, as would supply line. Each Gnat contained two laser guided 500lb bombs, each F-4 had seveal more. The F-4's would double as interceptors, should any Icovirian aircraft come up on RADAR.

Diamondhilt sent a message to the Icovirian military command, making his request to pull back and end hostilities before yet another bloody war breaks loose.
"Pull back to Saudi Arabia. It will end all hostilities, you have my word."

yea, well I have 12,000 Benemoth SHBT's to back Pudu up

You cant seriously want to send them all in one batch?

What if you get invaded?

"Sir, the Beiraqi situation is growing worse. Forces from the Blackhelm confederacy have come into play, apparently sending aircraft to bomb Icovirian forces."

"Well shit. What forces do we have near that border?"

"When Beiraq invaded, we moved our forces in the country closer to the Beiraq-Icovir border. We have about two-thirds of our rafales in combat range of Beiraq, and three divisions of soldiers can be brought up to the front lines. We are bringing one of the naval taskforces toward the sinai peninsula, so we have naval forces on hand."

"Good. Get those divisions attached to Icovirian ones. We want well trained and equipped troops backing up the Icovirians. Get those planes up, armed for air to air combat. I want meteors and mica IR's, as well as some Storm Shadows. Knock these god-damned blackhelm and beiraqi aircraft out of the air."

"Sir!"

About 400 miles south-east of the beiraqi invading forces, Chellian Rafale F4F's began to light their engines at their airfield. One hundred of the aircraft would be launched toward the invading forces, in hopes to turn the tide.

OOC: It is his thread. Therefore, we gotta follow his rules. Sorry mate :( (Chellis)

And now can we get back to RPing? Please respond to my attacks....

Airstrikes had done their damage, taking out nearly a hundred of the T-72's, and killing or wounding over two hundred men. Still, Beiraqi forces pressed on, SA-11's and ZSU's firing into the skies at the enemy planes.

So I could randomly start invading nations, and say I didn't want others in, so it would be ok? Icovir is being invaded, he's well within his rights to let in who he wants. You can't really tell people who are being invaded that they can't get help, thats godmodding.

I'll wait for icovir too tell me what to do.

You bring up a good point. If I wasn't running a fever and very ill right now, I'd probably had seen it sooner....I think we should let Icovir and Beiraq both debate it and come to their decision....


IC:

The Shilkas took out several F/A-18s, while the others retreated. Meanwhile, the F-88s continued towards Beiraqi airspace, under the cover of their advanced stealth systems.

Yes, its a closed thread

OOC: May I help Icovir? I also had stationed troops in Icovir, because of their attempt of blaming the UCN for a terrorist attack. I also had scientists investigfating the attacks in his capital, so I ought help Icovir, and Beiraq cannot oppose to a reaction that is logical if I have soldiers and also CIVILIANS in Icovir...

OOC: It's only really closed if Icovir agrees though, isn't it? If he doesn't want to be invaded without his allies to back him up, nothing can happen. If he does agree to be invaded with only one ally backing him up, then yes, closed is closed.

I suggest an OOC thread, at this point!

Yugoslavia has interests in the outcome of this conflict, but for now our only involvement is in supplying arms to Beiraq and helping to maintain some of their equipment, unless they directly ask for our intervention.

OOC: They've got good points to bring up (Montegrande and Chellis).

Montegrande had troops, scientists, and an investigation team in my country because of my short lived war with the UCN. We reached an agreement at the end of that war.

Chellis had stationed troops in my nation after my decleration of "hostilities" with the Blackhelm Confederacy. Chellis had stationed troops to act as "peacekeepers" (actually there to help me with the upcoming fights I may have with the BC).

Wanderjar had claimed to be my ally at the beginning of this thread, also. So Wanderjar should stay.

I would sat that myself and Wanderjar should deploy large military forces, while Chellis and Montegrande should deploy much smaller forces (like 10-15,000) useful for only one battle.

I'm gonna go create an OOC thread. I would say to make this thread closed after this post.

"Sir, the war is getting worse, the Blackhelm Confederacy has joined with Beiraq" stated the second-in-command General.

"Damn, what was their first move?" said the Emperor in response.

"They launched some air fighters to attack us. But we don't know what they'll attack".

"Hmmm... They would probably attack our troops in Saudi Arabia and at the border."

"No, sir. Not in Saudi Arabia. The Blackhelm Confederacy has agreed to end hostilities if we pull back to the Arabian peninsula and let Beiraq take the Persian Gulf."

"No is the answer to that. 3,500 Icovirian men and women, possibly more, died in this war so far. We cannot let them win without paying for those troops numbers. Did the air raid succeed?"

"Yes sir. But, many Beiraqi troops survived. Many also died, so it was a success".

"Good, that should level the playing field. Launch more aircraft into the sky. Logitstics show that we cannot support too many more aircraft, but sea battles on the Persian Gulf look calm.

This may be risky, but take 1 ship out of the Persian Gulf. That's 1,500 Naval Personnel taken out of this war. They will be substituded with 1,000 Air Force Fighters, just enough to deploy them without having a tough time on logistics."

"Sir."

"Also, be sure to equip them with missiles that can hit beyond visible range. Knowing the BC, they will have radar to seek out any air fighters we send out. Here's what we'll do: We'll send 100 of the 1,000 newly activated air fighters to go first.

Once the BC starts attacking them, send in the rest of the fighters, 900 air force fighters. Do this quickly before the BC hits their target, because we cannot intercept them otherwise, understand?"

"Yes sir."

"One more thing, call upon Wanderjar and tell them to help us in the air. Tell them the situation and our plans on how to deal with it. I fear that air battles right now are more important than ground battles."

The General followed his orders immediatly.

Meanwhile, on the ground, troops were assaulted by Beiraqi forces and their tanks.

"DEPLOY THE TANKS!" yelled Major General Hock, in charge of the 80th and 81st Infantry Regiments.

The tanks were sent to the front of the lines, and tank wars between Beiraq and Icovir soon followed.

1,700 Icovirian tanks were sent to the front lines. Beiraqi tanks began firing on them immediatly, destroying 50 of them in the first 5 minutes of the tank battle.

The tanks of Icovir began firing back, and one tank sheel struck a Beiraqi tank, destroying it. More tanks began firing, but soon Major General Hock realized that this wasn't working.

"Ok, I need 1,500 of the tanks to continue firing on the other tanks. Meanwhile, the other 200 need to focus on evading the Beiraqi tanks and firing on the Beiraqi soldiers, ONLY."

The 200 tanks followed the Major General's orders. 3 tanks were destroyed by Beiraqi tanks, but some other tanks began opening fire on Beiraqi troops, and blood splattered all over the sandy border.

The 1,500 tanks still attacking Beiraqi tanks were beginning to succeed, if only a little. 10 more Beiraqi tanks were destroyed, but there were still thousands left, with the possibility of the Blackhelm Confederacy getting involved with THEIR tanks. That's why it was imperitive that Icovir and Wanderjar quickly deal with Beiraq before the Blackhelm Confederacy get's more involved than they are now. Icovir's plans were to push Beiraqi forces up to their own border and to enter Beiraq and begin reverse the situation so that it is Icovir invading Beiraq. Icovir was close to succeeding when this new attack by Beiraqi forces broke out.

Submarines swam like wales through the ocean, looking for any Beiraqi ships. There were none, but they were still ready to fight, just in case. So far, the war has been in the air and on land, and not in the sea.

In the air, the plan was taking place. 100 fighters were sent out to intercept the Blackhelm Confederacy's fighters. They were 10 miles from their target as of this report, while the rest of the fighters were 150 miles from the Blackhelm fighters.

Meanwhile, the Emperor was giving his speech addressed to the world.

"Recently, Icovir was invaded by Beiraq. Icovir has great allies defending her, along with a strong military. We have confidence that we will win.

There has been threats of nuclear warfare breaking out with Beiraq. This is hoped to be avoided by Wanderjar and Icovir. If nuclear warfare breaks out, there will be too many civilian casualties, innocent civilians.

Icovir pleads with the leaders of Beiraq and the Blackhelm Confederacy not to use nuclear warfare against us, or we will use them against you. Too many civilians will die when this war is really soldier vs. soldier and leader vs. leader. Do not get the civilians involved in this."

OOC: Watchu talkin' bout Willis?

OOC-Typo. That is all assuming you don't want me to join in.

As part of its alliance with Icovir the Scandinvan Empire has decided to provide aide finical, in resource, and in arms. As well, if needed the Empire shall directly intervene in this war and destroy the aggressor for the sake of their ally. So the Emperor went on television before the House of Lords and said,” Citizens of the Empire today a ally of our nation has been attacked by the never ending evil of the Corporate Alliance. Yet, we may not be attacked right now we most not allow them to attack friends and allies of the Empire and this today I and the House of Lords have begun send aide to Icovir and will continue to do so until their enemy is driven out of their lands.”

So now the Empire had sent the first wave of aide in which was 2.1 trillion USD, fifteen million tons of food, 8000 doctors, 12,000 nurses, 6000 Crusader Tanks, 1800 F-18s, 2200 F-16s, two million medium missiles, 6000 artillery pieces, three million M-16s, 200,000 machine guns, 4200 Comanche, and 180 Black Hawks.

Icovir thanks the Scandinavians for their help.

The $21,000,000,000,000 will be very useful in increases our troop numbers and in deploying our full force of Black Eagles (5,000 Black Eagles). It will also help us buy more supplies from the Soviet Storefront.

Icovir will deploy the support teams of doctor and nurses and weapons to the battle at the border. Also, the weapons and support teams of doctors and nurses will help us logistics-wise. We will also make use of your weapons in full.

CURRENT ICOVIRIAN TROOP NUMBERS: 5,000,000
CURRENT ICOVIRIAN TROOPS FIGHTING AT THE BORDER: 4,950,000

TOTAL TANKS FIGHTING AT THE BORDER: 3,700 Black Eagles + 6,000 Crusader Tanks = 9,700 tanks
TOTAL TANKS FIGHTING IN THE ARABIAN PENINSULA: 1,300 Black Eagles.

More than 300 air force fighters have been deployed to guard the support teams, weapons, tanks, and troops on their trip to the border. Once there, the air force fighters will engage with the other 1,000 air force fighters currently fighting Blackhelm Confederate and Beiraqi air fighters.

These weapons will help us in this war, and the tanks will help us drive the Beiraqi forces out of Icovir and back into their own land. With this money, we will also increase air support over the Arabian peninsula to 500 air force fighters. More air force fighters have also been sent to the border.

TOTAL AIR FORCE FIGHTERS FIGHTING AT THE BORDER: 3,000 air force fighters (2,000 more deployed from last update).

OOC: Yep, Icovir is using Gnats, but the donations from the Scandinavians have me also using F-16's and F-18's also.

As fighting continued, the chellian 145th armoured edged close to the front lines. As the remaining divisions went to defend the airfields that chellian aircraft were flying from, the 145th division was to play an active role in helping defend against the beiraqi attack.

The first tank company soon reached the front lines, and made contact with the commander there. "Chellian forces are at Icovir's command. The rest of the division is moving up to reinforce this position. We have a couple hundred tanks and IFV's, some artillery, and some ATGM drones. What would you have us do?"

At the same time, the chellian F4F's were flying towards the main air conflict, to assist Icovir forces.

Icovir is deeply thankful for the support the Scandinvans has offered.

All weapons and personnel given to us by the Scandinvans will be shipped and be put to use only in the border battle. They will be supported from air by the F-18s who will then fight in the air battles going on above the border.

Using the money the Scandinvans has given us, we will increase our troop numbers. Adding the money they gave us to the supplies, we can increase our troop numbers greatly.

TOTAL TROOPS AT WAR AGAINST BEIRAQ AND THE BLACKHELM CONFEDERACY: 8,200,000
TOTAL TROOPS DEFENDING THE ARABIAN PENINSULA: 60,000.

TOTAL TANKS FIGHTING AT THE BORDER: 12,450

The Great Imperial Federation thanks her allies, the Scandinvans, for their help.

The Empire is happy to hear of the response and wishes you the best of luck in driving out of the invaders of your lands and hopes that you make the blood of your enemy stain the sand so to show them that they cannot hope to win against you.

As well, we wish to tell you that 18,000 Imperial trainers have volunteered to go to your empire and help train your forces so as to better prepare them for combat.

Those Scandinvan shipments would never make it to Icovir. Several dozen Rajput destroyers would make sure of that. They were given strict orders. Not to let anything, no passenger ships, no supplies, nothing, into Icovir's ports. A number of F-4's were also diverted to ensure that the Scandinvans do not attempt to fly in the supplies.

In the air, the F-4's and Gnats now began to target front line airbases. A significant amount of losses were taken, but they were not enough to stop the GAF's raids. Several television and radio stations were also soon to be victims of the air raids, in effect blinding the enemy in every way short of visual contact.

On the ground, the first armoured elements crossed the border into Icovir. They were to take no prisoners. They were given an option to withdraw peacably, and denied it. Now they would suffer.

The Socialist Republic of Montegrande only will deploy 15,000 of their soldiers, already stationed in the icovirian territory to fight Beiraq, mainly helping in the defense of the territory. Also, the Socialist Republic wires $15 billion USD to help with the war against the aggresive Beiraqi. The troops will leave Viktivskni as soon as possible with the purpose of strengthening the icovirian troops in the front. Also, 40 Mig-29s and 60 Su-35s will be used to help the icovirian people in this war. hoping a victory of Icovir,

Manuel Salvatierra, Socialist Republic of Montegrande

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

Montegrandean troops, Viktivskni

after the order was wired from the High Command, the montegrandeans quickly began their trip to the frontier with Beiraq, in the persian gulf zone. The rapid Su-35 fighters, repaired and updated for a better (and cheaper) performance covered the voyage of the 2 armoured divisions and the 10 mecanized infantry companies (making a sum of about 13,000 soldiers between the ground and air forces, and the medical and ingeneering personel) that were sent to battle in the beiraqi front. The fascists would finally pay all the deaths caused by their aggresive attitudes.

OOC: Sorry, who the heck would you even know where the supplied are coming from and as far you know they are coming by a combination and since I am a neutral nation you are attacking me is a violation of international and also since there was no official declaration of war against him your war is illegal and thus everything here is a paradox. Also, I will not recognize these attacks.

In the border battles, Icovirian tanks were still attacking Beiraqi tanks, nobody was winning as of yet. This was good, until new tanks arrived.

"F***!" screamed Major General Lock before informing the General of the Army of the situation. "New tanks have come in to support Beiraqi tanks. They look like Black...". His radio symbol was cut off.

The Major General didn't like the sound of that. That meant that the Blackhelm Confederate pilots actually succeeded in destroying a radio station. Was that their true mission of being here? "Maybe we should've pulled back..." thought the Major General.

"Damnit! Radio stations are their targets!?" yelled the Emperor in shock. "This is not good, we've got to send in more air force troops. Hmm... Another risky move to take. Take out another ship of 1,500 men from the Persian Gulf, and take out 40 submarines, 800 men in total, out.

That would leave us significant forces guarding the Persian Gulf, but will also allow us to increase air fighters to intercept the Blackhelm Pilots before they do anymore damage."

"Sir, we believe the Blackhelm pilots also aim to destroy the Scandinvan equipment. Some have been spotted heading off into the ocean, obviously not for a retreat from the skies." stated the second-in-command of the military.

"Damn. Order all ships guarding the Persian Gulf to arm themselves with the stored missiles and anti-aircraft guns. Tell them to shoot down any Gnat they see. They should be able to distinguish friend from foe since we still have SOME contact available. Hurry before the Blackhelm Confederacy do any more damage!"

"SIR!"

The ship was taken out, and so were the 40 submarines. Now, 40 subs and 2 ships remained guarding the Persian Gulf. In exchange for these naval personnel, 2,000 Gnats were deployed into the skies to intercept the Blackhelm pilots from destroyign the shipments. 1,000 more Gnats were deployed into the skies to also stop Blackhelm pilots from destroying any more radio stations.

That's all Icovir has unless they manage to stop the Blackhelm Pilots from destroying the shipments...

OOC: Sorry, who the heck would you even know where the supplied are coming from and as far you know they are coming by a combination and since I am a neutral nation you are attacking me is a violation of international and also since there was no official declaration of war against him your war is illegal and thus everything here is a paradox.

Uh..I am more than capablle of blockading his ports to intercept your ships, and currently we are in a state of war (me and you) after you attempted to invade my homeland, so I can and will sink your ships.

The Socialist Republic wires $15 billion USD

Icovir thanks Montegrande for their support, both troop and monetary-wise.

Icovir will use the $15 billion to pay for more Air Force troops and more Naval Personnel (enough for one ship). The Gnats deployed (using the $15 billion)
and the 1 ship's worth of naval personnel deployed still left Icovir with $4 billion.

The Emperor had plans to support his tanks at the border by buying more Black Eagles from the Soviet Storefront, even if he couldn't buy a lot.

Uh..I am more than capablle of blockading his ports to intercept your ships, and currently we are in a state of war (me and you) after you attempted to invade my homeland, so I can and will sink your ships.OOC: Actually, as I stated in the OOC thread they are a crusading army under the banner of the Catholic Patriarch and in the unfirom of the army of the Patriarch who is an independent nation. Yet, basically they still only gained their right from him to wage war and thus in fact they were a army of free soldiers not related to any state save themselves.

"We can't." The Emperor replied back. "We must be ready to respond if Beiraq makes any false claims about this war. Who's to say THEY won't claim to be the victims? It is an idea that any attacking nation would like to use in a scenario like this one."

"True.We should send a telegram or something to Beiraq and the Blackhelm Confederacy."

OOC: Though it is entirely possible for you to intercept that message, that was still supposed to be a secret IC...

True, which was why I didn't say "They will be planning it" but rather "They might be planning it".

Any sensible commander-in-chief would know that you can't trust your enemy, even during peace negotiations. That was an idea by the Emperor to send that message out.

During the Emperor's absence, General Josh Natock, second-in-command of the military and also Vice Commander-In-Chief (should the Emperor be unable to control the military) was promoted to Commander-In-Chief.

He ordered all tanks and troops to pull back into Chezck, where things should be calm for a couple of days during the peace negotiations. He ordered all aircraft to go back to the aircraft carriers and bases where they launched from. But, he still kept the ships and submarines in the Persian Gulf.

He could only hope that peace negotiations would go smoothly...

OOC-Icovir, you wouldn't have even thought of that if that message wasn't sent. You're using information that you only have OOC'ly to effect IC decisions. That is what is seems like to me, at least.

He diverted some funds from law and order and began a duplication program of the F-15s. Maybe now Icovir will become a major force, air-wise, to mess with.

With several earlier raids disabling Icovirian radar systems, the Griffincrest F-4's should be able to have free reign over Icovirian airspace, provided they stay in the clouds and out of visual range of ground forces. Fifty F-4 Phantom II's blasted off of their bases in Beiraq. Their mission was to destroy the brand new Icovirian F-15 shipment before it even got off the ground.

Meanwhile, at sea, the dozen Rajput destroyers tightened their blockade, and began sinking ships while in port. Several Brahmos supersonic cruise missiles were also launched at harbor facilities, so that if any enemy shipments were to be somehow smuggled through the blockade, it would be a pain in the ass to unload the shipment.

Wanderjarian Ships in the sea began targetting Griffincrest ships. Submarines snuck in close eo the enemy, and fired numerous torpedoes, while the surface fleet began pounding them with tomahawks and their large main guns.


F-88 Bombers not deployed from the Nimitz Carriers, took to the skies, targetting enemy ships with Air to Surface munitions. F-99 Fighters guarded these planes, by also targeting ships, but also ready to keep enemy fighters away.


If BC wished to attack Icovir, as always they would have to deal with the Wanderjarians.

OOC: Oh no you didn't. Oh NO YOU DIDN'T. You broke the cardinal rule of NationStates Storefronts, NO UNAUTHORIZED PRODUCTIONS!


OOC: lol, I think I just did. But hey, we're desperate :D

IC: General Josh Natock was nervous about the F-15s being duplicated. There was no air support, and if the Blackhelm Confederacy got any word whatsoever about this shipment, they could be destroyed in a matter of minutes.

"Damn, I wish the Emperor was still here." he thought before going to bed.

OOC: Are we allowed carriers? I kept it with Rajput destroyers because I thought we were just supposed to provide light support while the little guys brawl.

OOC: Are we allowed carriers? I kept it with Rajput destroyers because I thought we were just supposed to provide light support while the little guys brawl.

I already had an entire fleet in the region, as I never pulled it away after the war with Beiraq. I was using it as a TACOPS center and Rest place for troops, but then your destroyers arrived....

Transmission to all parties involved

Leafanistan along with General Resources has switched its stance from Neutral in this conflict to (Unfriendly toward Icovir), due to Icovirian attempts at copying Leafanistani Surplus F-15s.

The F-15s have been destroyed thanks to anti-tampering devices and Icovir banned from purchasing goods from Leafanistan.

We'd just like you to know that Icovir is a bunch of dishonest goons.

[END]

I see

IC:

About two dozen Griffincrest S-400 batteries in Beiraq tracked the Wanderjarian planes as soon as they took off. They would not move very far either. Eash battery launched twenty missiles, and the missile spam screamed for Wanderjarian blood. These missiles would be supported by S-125 missiles launched by the Rajputs at sea. Hundreds of SAM's were fired to splatter Wanderjarian blood all over the gulf.

The Rajputs had their Helix A helicopters all on patrol when the torpedo launch was picked up. Each chopper (24 in total, one from each ship) dropped their torpedo decoys into the water, hoping that the would divert as many weapons away from the ships as possible. Each ship also launched their own torpedo decoy, defending most of the ship, and each also launched tons of chaff and radar countermeasures. Still, four of the destroyers were sunk, and two more damaged, and ordered back to port for repairs.

The Rajputs quickly returned fire, opening up with their own active and passive torpedoes, fired at the offending submarines, and then proceeded to fire four of their PJ-10 BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles at the Nimitz out at sea. With twenty ships firing, that made eighty missiles. The carrier stood little chance against the mass of missiles directed at them. It would be a feat of god for that Nimitz, or those planes, to make it out alive.

OOC: ICCD is just observing the conflict, TG me if you have any questions etc..

ICCD is hereby terminating the ICCD leased bases with Griffencrest, atleast until cessation of hostilities, all griffencrest personnel are to evacuate ASAP. A reasonable ammount of time will be given and troops will not be harmed unless offensive. All troops and Griffenrest equipment should be removed within One month. All ships and aircraft are to vacate effectively as of this date and have one week unless damaged to do so. Commercial Aircraft can be supplied by ICCD to transport Griffenrest personnel as well, merchant marine can be provided to assist in moving any excess equipment, at a nominal rate.
The lease may be renewed after ceseation of hostitlities with the UCN. Formal Protest may be lodged.

F-15 Strike Eagle, and technically it is my own model, F-15s aren't equipped with:

"Countermeasures: 1 Wolfpack RADAR Jammer, 10 internal flares, 10 chaff canisters"

The Wolfpack RADAR jammer is a cheap and easily maintained device that is usually equipped on export aircraft. Opening the F-15 up and copying it, especially that thing would constitute a breach.

This comes across as industrial espionage, which ranks about the same. If you are going to dismantle my F-15s, it is for maintainence only. If you are going to use it as a benchmark to compare domestically produced F-15s then, it is alright.

I know a way to settle this. Just purchase the production rights at $1.1 billion and I'll unblacklist you and you can have all the F-15s you can produce. Sure it opens up Griffencrest Corp(NOT BLACKHELM CONFED) and Beiraq to bomb your factories, but it is a lot better than this hornet's nest you've opened.

1.1 billion?! Hmmm... Ok, I'll purchase the rights.

Damn, but I'm gonna have to eliminate 200 tanks from my tank arsenal currently fighting.... Oh well.

Still, I'll have to build the factories underground. So, I'll build them underground where it'll be a hard place to find them. Be warned (Beiraq, Griffencrest) that you can't bomb my factories so easily now...

Icovierian Airspace, Pudite Fighter Air Wing, A Delivery
Ten Pudite F-41A strike fighters soared over the Icovierian border from the north-west, flying at mach zero-point eight at fifty-thousand feet above the surface of the earth, nearing a set of coordinates given to them by 'Victonian' officials ordering a trio of fighter aircraft from the Dominion...

There were thirteen planes in total, all monitoring for any active radar contacts, flying at sub-mach speeds, and not carrying any external missiles all as precautions. They were not to be seen coming in here, and they were not to be seen coming out.

These planes were going to land in roughly ten minutes, and they began their decent...

Spotting the concrete runway ahead, the transport planes radioed in, "We've made visual, TB-01 going in to land, bring in trio... five minutes. Fighters keep up."

The message was relayed among the Pudite pilots as the first of the TB transport squadron put down on the foreign dirt...

As the final of the three planes touched concrete the back hatches of each of the three aircraft fell open, revealing fifty Strelkovy infantrymen standing at perfect attention within the belly of each craft. Resting silently behind them, were the three Su-25 Frogfoot close support aircraft...

I know you said "keep it small" in the title... but do you suppose the Ed States could infact get involved... due to the fact that the Ed States is
small?

General Natock (ret. army official) headed out to meet the Pudites. He was dressed in a Victonian officer's uniform. After all, Victonia had existed before Icovir went conquering a long time ago (before the Great Regime Change).

"Thank you for the aircraft!" he said. "This will really help us destroy those Icovirians and be independant once again!"

Icovierian Airfield, Pudite Fighter Air Wing, A Delivery
As the foreign general approached, the soldiers in the Pudite aircraft saluted, standing at attention.

One of them spoke, "We are happy to deliver this to you, honored ally."

Seconds after the officer spoke, they exploded.

Each of the three landed transport aircraft detonated, hurling out a force born from twenty-seven thousand pounds of high explosive from each aircraft.

The explosion would be seen and heard for miles around, likely leveling the entire airfield and some surrounding structures besides. The Dominion had delivered its goods, and was even paid for them...

OOC: VERY clever move, Pudite!

IC: "Th..." was the officer's last muttered statement.

Thousands of Icovirians heard the blast from Madinah. Jeddah's airfield was completely destroyed. So was one half the city of Jeddah.

Once General Josh Natock heard of this, he swore. "Now, I'll have to tell the Emperor..."

Funds for the underground factory being built ware officially diverted for Jeddah. Those funds were being placed into rebuilding Jeddah's airfield and the city itself.

DEATH TOLL: 3,000 civilians.

The Beiraqi push was now being massivly supported by hundreds of SCUD missiles, which streaked into Icovirian rear line supply bases almost hourly. The now horridly supplied Icovirian front line troops, likely low on gas and ammunition, were hugley outnumbered now. The battle would not last much longer here, especially now that M94 Plamen-S multiple rocket launch systems began opening up, and thousands of rockets poured down upon enemy troop or vehicle condensations. In the skies above, Super Galeb attack fighters fired missiles from the sky for more accurate attacks, primarily on whatever few supply lies survived, and then anything that resembled a radio station or command center.

Icoverian lines would likely be in shambles now, as Griffincrest planes had destroyed the majority of radio stations, RADAR bases, and supply depots earlier, and now the Beiraqi Air Force was mopping up whatever remained.

Not to sound rude, but...
JESUS AM I IN OR NOT?!?!?!?!?!?!?

lol, this war's over pretty soon. :D

The Icovirian troop lines were going down fast. General Josh Natock was very unexperienced in this scenario.

He ordered for all ships and submarines to abandon the Persian Gulf. He then ordered other men to become activated in the Air Force and launched 3,000 fighters that day (mixed fighters, F-15s, F-16s, and Imperial F-16s).

He ordered any tanks patrolling the Arabian peninsula to go to the frontlines. 1,300 tanks were ordered to the border battle.

The aircraft General Natock sent caught up with the Beiraqi fighters, and air battles soon erupted when one Imperial F-16 opened fire on a Beiraqi aircraft.

OOC: You know that you can't just take everybody off a boat and make them all pilots right?

OOC: You know that you can't just take everybody off a boat and make them all pilots right?

ooc: No, I didn't make the navy guys pilots. I made the other air force troops (who were already in the air force, just not activated for logistic reasons) pilots.

Plus, remember that the draft is still going. There's gonna be more and more air force pilots ready to be deployed.

OOC: Ah, I see

IC:

The Icovirian planes came as a surprise. Getting them off the ground must have been incredibly difficult with no power or radio, but the GAF was prepared for this, assuming the bases to be self sufficient. Several dozen F-4's were scrambled to assist the Beiraqi airforce, while ten S-400 batteries on the ground put up an impressive two hundred and forty SAM's in total, sure to be felt by the Icovirian air force.

At sea, the Rajputs put yet another volley of their BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles into the harbor facilities of coastal Icovirian cities. A small battlefleet, with an Forrestal class carrier as flagship named "The Baron" It contained, sad as it is, some of the best planes in all of the GAF, ninety F-14 Tomcats. Although these planes may be less than the enemies, they were a huge advancement from the Gnat/F-4 fighter squadrons, and the GAF mercenary pilots were confident in their abilities. These, however, were not the most valuable pieces aboard the ship. The Commander of the entire GAF, Herman Goldring, sat in the bridge alongside a newly appointed ex-Jaredchonian admiral, Admiral Boris. The admiral was a strange man, refusing to give a last name, but he was still considered a valuable asset and was utilized.

Air battles continued with the BC and Beiraq. Icovir was losing this war quickly, for Icovir is running out of air force fighters and peopel to draft.

Coastal cities weren't well defended due to lack of ships in the area. But we would have to risk it.

The war had taken it's toll on Icovir, and Icovir did what she can do...

Secret IC to Wanderjar
Icovir requests your help in sending more troops to support us. We are losing our battles in the sky, and our coastal cities are virtually defenseless. Though, we are holding up at the border.
General Josh Natock

OOC: I suggest you sue for peace.

IC:

The Mafia were watching everything via satellite feeds. Mostly to analyze Griffencrest Tactics. Their conclusion was that advanced fighters were the way to go, and authorizations were made to buy some plans for the Super Galeb and other 'advanced fighters'.

Also to finish construction of Battalion sized packages.

OOC: Whoa, whoa, whoa, the Soviets built a 50 megaton hydrogen bomb, scalable up to 100 megatons, and that had to be dropped out of a specially modified heavy bomber. 65 megatons in the Persian Gulf will destroy not only Beiraq utterly, but poison Icovir and any nations nearby. Use of these ensure the deaths of millions, maybe billions.

The Empire upon hearing of the growing trouble ordered for 3200 of its F-18’s and their pilots to be deployed to Icovir and fly under the flag of Icovir in the struggle in the support of their ally/

Secret Transmission:

“The Empire is willing to give your nation five 65 Mega Ton Hydrogen Bombs for your purposes in your defense.”

Secret IC
Icovir thanks The Scandinvans for their support. We also thank you for the hydrogen bombs you have given us. We will make full use of them.

IC to all
Icovir is currently preparing it's nuclear bomb, built a long time ago (OOC: see my nuclear test thread). It is a small bomb, but we plan to use it when it times of great danger, and we are in great danger right now.

With Icovirian forces in utter dissarray, the main Griffincrest armoured push came down in support of the Beiraqi forces, smashing into the bulk of the confused and exhausted enemy units. Their lack of fuel and ammo brought only one word to the mind of Commander Goldring as he watched the battle via sattelite aboard the carrier. In Lebadad, regional Beiraqi Security Commander, a Granatian by the name of Henry Blake, also watched as he made his maneuvers and planned further incursions.

At sea, the Rajput's, and now the Tomcats, were given strict orders to maintain the blockade, and not let the Scandinvan pilots into the country.

Secret IC:

The Empire wishes to tell you that you should not use the bombs in a area important to you for rather obvious reasons.

Beiraqi Foreign Minister Abdul Majeed wishes to conduct peace talks, and we think that the best place to conduct them is aboard the Griffincrest carrier off of your coast.

The Scandinvan fighters entered the country through the land to the north following a favorable wind at top speeds they flew and they readied for any battle and they also sent a secret transmission to Icovir asking for the landing coordinates.

OOC: That was stupid

IC:

The land north of Icovir was, of course, Beiraq. The Beiraqi military simply would not accept enemy supply shipments passing through their airspace. Immediatly, over a dozen Patriot and SA-6 positions tracked the shipment, and opened up, firing a salvo of several hundred missiles, to make sure that the planes would be destroyed in the air, never crash landing. To make sure the aircraft was destroyed, five MiG-21's were also scrambled, told to shoot down the planes if they miraculously made it through.

Beiraqi Foreign Minister Abdul Majeed wishes to conduct peace talks, and we think that the best place to conduct them is aboard the Griffincrest carrier off of your coast.The Empire will advise against this due to the fact of the past treachery of Griffincrest and would like to recommend a Scandinvan battleship which is currently out in the Arabian sea and assures all parties that we remain a power not involved directly in the fighting and also the Empire has a record of honorable warfare.

Beiraq demands it take place aboard the carrier of our ally.

OOC: Your involved now, I just downed your flight.

Achmara, neighboring Beiraq (RL Iran) and also an associate of Griffincrest, is considering throwing its weight into the war on behalf of Beiraq and BH.

Beiraq demands it take place aboard the carrier of our ally.

OOC: Your involved now, I just downed your flight.

OOC:
You can't say "Oh, i downed all your planes" because thats a godmod.

The well trained soldiers of the Empire launched a counter barrage against Beiraqi missiles were designed to destroy the enemy missiles which were designed to destroy all heated objects that did not emit a complex signal emitted by all Scandinvan missiles and aircraft.

OOC: By the way I am entering over the Black Sea, over Turley, and then over the Syrian Desert at altitudes of 20,000 feet.

OOC: I'm not even really involved here, but no. Just no. That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. If I were Beiraq, I'd claim massive god mod. Hit the bricks kid, those planes are gone.

OOC: Thanks, when you have been around NS a few times you know how to respond to god mods. As well, thanks for your support Shazbotdom.

That blatant godmod, and then incredibly poor explanation warranted this

IC:

The Grand Ayatollah of Achmara has today ordered the Revolutionary Guard forces across the gulf to make an amphibious landing on the Arabian Peninsula, thus further stretching the beleagured Icovirian forces. The fleet was covered by twelve Alvand class frigates, as well as three Kilo class diesel powered submarines. The Kilos were quick to strike at the Wanderjarian fleet group from the south, and opened up with the full salvo of eighteen torpedoes each as soon as they were within range. This attack on the Wanderjarian forces, no doubt already damaged from the truly massive amount of missiles previously fired at them, was further supported by twelve C-802 missiles, one from each frigate, coming from the north, and from the east, came thirty five Kowsar stealth missiles. The Wanderjarian fleet would not stand a chance, as Griffincrest forces were striking from the west from their Rajputs. Wanderjarian ships were now quite literally in a square of fire, being struck at from all sides. Their CIWS systems would be unable to watch every side at once, and with any luck, that super carrier would be no more.

OOC:
hmmmz.....Achmara, so how big is your military?

Scandinvans, I fired several hundred missiles at what I assumed was a cargo plane, and I said that in an OOC statement that you lost the plane. Retract that godmod, or I will ignore you and anything you give to Icovir.

OOC:
Beiraq...OOC statments don't affect IC rollplay. That ould be considered bad RPing form and the majority of the NS Rollplaying Community looks down upon that type of stuff.

You just helped my point...I said that those planes were gone in OOC

Proceed to meet aboard the Griffincrest carrier The Baron for the talks

(Should we make a new thread)

You just helped my point...I said that those planes were gone in OOC

OOC:
And my point is that you were telling HIM that HIS planes were gone in OOC. Which is a blatant Godmod. You cannot tell him what his losses are, it's bad RPing etiquette and frowned upon by RPers.

Because I assumed it was a single cargo plane, and the chances of a C-130 surviving that many missiles is 0

OOC:
Still. Tell him what his losses are is a godmod. Plain and simple as black and white.

Shazbotdom, shut up. Did I ever say all your planes are gone? no. I said I downed yourr flight, which can be some, can be all. It is not a god mod, especially not since it was OOC. When you know what you are talking about, get involved in the thread, until then go to bed. I never told him he lost everything, plain and simple, black and white.

Edit: O yea, get out of my thread.

Ok, fine, but I fired over a hundred missiles at it, Scandinvans cant shoot them all down

Commander Goldring stood aboard The Baron, and awaited the arrival of Beiraqi and Icovirian diplomats. Around him Rajputs would fire at set intervals into the ports and enemy vessels nearby, causing thick smoke to cover the air. A few hundred yards ahead of the carrier was a capsized Rajput, lost in a torpedo attack from Wanderjar. Behind him a squadron of four F-14 Tomcats blasted to the sky, destined to strike some target unknown to the commander. Their job was made so much easier with the enemy currently lacking radar and radio systems.

Icovir sent a Senator, Senator Josh Bonds, to the peace talks.

20 Gnats were flown with the "Senate Air Force" to protect him while he went to the peacetalks.

The Gnats landed on the Baron, and then the "Senate Air Force" landed.

Senator Josh Bonds walked out of the aircraft, and walked up to Commander Goldring to greet him.

Then, Senator Josh Bonds proceeded with his negotiations by stated: "This war will only hurt Beiraq, Icovir, and your country. We can both safely agree that the best way to settle things will be for peacetalks. Our nation is crushed, but we have many allies to support us even with this fact.

I say me and Beiraq split Iran 45/55, with Icovir taking the 55." Senator Josh Bonds said, holding his breath afterwards.

OOC: imo you would be hard pressed to remove all radar and radio points as many vehicles and others include those types of systems. although range of the available sensors may be reduced, that can be avoided by clustering smaller systems into an array. (but this isn't my war per sey) also although ICCD isn't involved with combat troops if allowed it would still be providing logistics, intelligence information to the UCN members involved, including satalite based sensors and long range naval sensors.Of course you ccan choose to ignore I find it hard to fathom how their forces could be deprived of all radio and radar, it is just mysterious.s

"Well, know I for one would not accept that if I were Beiraq, but, I will not allow you to take Iran, as that is currently being held by the nation of Achmara, another assosciate."

IC: (Secret IC) This message was sent in Arabic and translated by translators in Wanderjar:
The Blackhelm Confederacy and Beiraq has offered Icovir peace negotiations to split Iran. We ask that you patrol our skies, for our radar stations are down and we are being massacred from above. Please watch our skies for any signs of Beiraqi or Blackhelm Confederate aircraft

"Well, know I for one would not accept that if I were Beiraq, but, I will not allow you to take Iran, as that is currently being held by the nation of Achmara, another assosciate."

Losing Iran will be a big blow to us, but we can also go and conquer new lands in Africa to make up for it. Are there any nations you know, or are allied with, in the rest of North Africa?

If so, we will leave Iran and conquer some territory in Africa."

OOC: Achmara owns Iran, that his homeland.

OOC: Achmara owns Iran, that his homeland.

Maybe Achmara is in another NS Continent?

For example, Icovir, though being my ally, is not in the same continent I am.

OOC: Yep, I'm willing to give up Iran (and modify my borders so they look like the real borders, I.E Europe).

BUT, I'm gonna go conquering Africa, especially Northern African countries that I don't like ICly *cough*Hataria*cough*

OOC: Achmara owns Iran, that his homeland.

OOC: So Icovir plays on a different Iran.

OOC: So Icovir plays on a different Iran.

As far as I know Beiraq doesnt

Yeah, Beiraq plays in the same Iran. I acknowledged it when he invaded me.

"So, do we have a deal? Icovir backs off from Iran, but we then conquer Northern Africa.

You have no territories there, neither do your allies. Also, you'll gain Iran, full of natureal resources, in the process. Sounds fair, doesn't it?" said Senator Josh Bonds.

He could only hope that they would agree and end this war with both countries benefiting...

The Grand Republic applaudes this move by Beiraqi forces, hoping that a new republic may be born from the ashes of the communist regime of Icovir.

OOC: I recognize Achmara as owning Iran, we never said otherwise, and I am Iraq. We are neighbors.

IC:

We have compiled a treaty for terms of Icovirian surrender. The following points will recognize Icovirian surrender to Beiraq.

- Icovir pays Beiraq 1.3 billion dollars to repair damage done to Beiraqi armour and air assets.

- Beiraqi borders extend south to occupy Kuwait, reaching down to King Khalid military city, Saudi Arabia/

- Beiraq is granted a military installation along the Strait of Hormuz, on Kish Island, and in Masqat

- Griffincrest is granted a military installation on Bahrain

Icovir will not agree to some of those terms:

1) Icovir will agree to pay 1 billion, for we need money for the repairing of our nation.

2) Icovir will give up up to Kuwait, as long as we're allowed to conquer Africa to make up for the lost resources. But we won't give up half of Saudi Arabia.

3) Icovir will allow Griffincrest an installment on Bahrain.

The Emperor of Icovir, Emperor Victor I, has agreed to meet with the Beiraqi delegate in Afghanistan next week (IC) to sign the agreement. Icovirian troops will not back off until then.

Official Message from the High Commander
TO:Beiraqi Government
FROM:The High Commander, Henry Corrol

I would like to personally congradulate the great nation of Beiraq for what looks like a victory against the Commie Icovirians.
Signed, The High Commander

OOC-Just a warning, you use n00kz on my ally, I respond in kind. Whether directly or indirectly. :p

OOC-Just a warning, you use n00kz on my ally, I respond in kind. Whether directly or indirectly. :p

OOC: C'mon people, n00kz are fun!

Besides, who says I'm gonna use the nukes against them? Little tricky there.

With Emperor Victor I back, this war should be won.

He ordered RPG-29's, freshly bought from the Soviet Storefront, to reach the troops fighting the tanks. They were being wiped out, and the radio stations were dead. So it would be tough getting them up there. He ordered a commercial airliner to fly off, looking as if taking off towards Achmara.

It really was going to fly down (landing near Achmara) and drop off the RPGs. The anti-tank weapons should help in the border battle.

We drop the billion dollar reparations, and the claims to Saudi Arabia, but we gain Kuwait, and the Strait of Hormuz, and Griffincrest gains Bahrain, deal?

Hmm... Sounds like a deal to us. We will send, instead of the Emperor, Vice President Ana Walad, to sign the deal. When the agreement is signed (in Bahrain, with the Blackhelm Confederacy), both sides with agree to a ceasefire and no more troops shall die.

Commander Goldring was first to sign, in large sweeping letters at the bottom of the paper. He was glad that he did not have to make any real decisions. Glad that the bare minimum in Griffincrest life was lost. Glad for the new military base in Bahrain, but most of all, glad for this to be over in yet another CA victory.

After signing, he turned to a nearby ensign and smiled. "Its over before it began. Let's get ready to go home" he said.

20 F-16s landed on the carrier. Then, landed the "Senate Air Force".

The Vice President walked out of the plane, fully aware that Icovir was going to lose a lot of land and resources just by him signing his name.

He felt in his jacket for the "button". This one "button" could also end his life and the lives of the Beiraqi and Blackhelm Confederate signers...

And because of this, he thought hard. For the first time, the Emperor left the choice in his hands.

Would he end the lives of 3 men, or would he sign the deal and end the war?

OOC: Wait, what, arent we on my carrier?

OOC: lol, I thought we were on Bahrain, signing the peace treaty? Meh, we're on your carrier, I'll edit my post.

IC: Vice President Ana Walad walked up to Commander Goldring, and eyed him. He then took out his quill pen (used just for these occasions), an ink bottle, and proceeded to sign the paper.

He reached into his jacket, playing with the "button". He was still thinking, should he do it? One push of the button causes the hydrogen bomb to launch. One push of the button saves Icovir from economic collapse.

He sat down, waiting for the Beiraqi delegate to come and sign. That was when he'd make the ultimate decision.

The commander extending his hand to the Icovirian to shake. Ironically, a bright gold ring was on that hand.

The Vice President didn't trust the commander, so he turned down the handshake.

He finger rested on the "button". He was leaning more towards doing it.

The commander grunted. His show of peace was just rejected. "Thats what you get dealing with a lower class of people" he thought to himself. "Filthy sand digger"

OOC: If you nuke Beiraq there will be, I guarantee, a multi-nation nuclear balooza at your expense.

OOC: If you nuke Beiraq there will be, I guarantee, a multi-nation nuclear balooza at your expense.

OOC: I'm not gonna nuke Beiraq.

The Blackhelm Confederacy is a well known location, no? nah, j/k.

IC: Where was that damned Beiraqi delegate? The commander from Griffincrest looked pissed that the Vice President turned down his handshake, but he didn't care. They would all be dead in a few minutes anyway.

He reached for the button, and rubbed it like a mother would rub her baby's head.

He always wanted to sacrifice himself for Icovir.

A lone aircraft, an SR-71 Blackbird, flying on the edge of space and the atmosphere took high powered distance photographs of a scene several thousand feet below it. The SR-71 had a small red and white checkered symbol on it's tail stabilizer, showing it to be from the United Ed States 1st Command and Special Operations Corps. The plane took extra security measures to make sure it wasn't seen, including flying at top altitude and keeping all stealth radar jams on high to make it seem non-existant to the human eye and radar posts.
The pictures the plane took revealed a large ship, which held allied commanders as well as a man sent from the land of Icovir to negotiate for peace. If anything were to happen, the SR-71 would see it, and photograph it... and perhaps sell the photos to the world media corporations to make an extra few bucks ;)

Emperor Victor I thought: Was this all really worth it, to kill a commander, a delegate, and his own Vice President? It would also cause the loss of all of Icovir instead of just less than 25%.

Besides, they were going to conquer Africa to make up for the lost land and resources.

He immediatly sent a Gnat to the carrier to send this message that was written in Arabic (so that the BC and Beiraq couldn't understand it):

Message written in Arabic (translated)
Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT press the "button". I'll discuss the reasons why afterwards.

The Emperor

That solved it. The only thing the Emperor could hope was that the Gnat carrying the message would reach the carrier on time, or at all...

A Mafia representative stood on the Blackhelm Carrier, there were two more Mafia men in the crowd, they were carrying concealed plastic pistols firing caseless ammunition. Meant for spy work, these spies awaited the decision, a decision that would affect multimillion, perhaps multibillion dollar contracts.

Vice President Ana Walad eyed the suspicious-looking men on the carrier. Nobody had said a word to them since he got on the ship.

He'd hate to do this to his own brother, but it was time.

"Excuse me" said the Vice President. He walked into the "Senate Air Force".

"He" then walked out, looking a little palish. "He" then sat down.

The Beiraqi representative, satisfied with his gains in Kuwait and Hormuz, gladly signed the paper, hopefully ending the war.

"Vice President Ana Walad" was glad that this war was over, and that both countries gained something. "He" shook hands with the Beiraqi representative and the commander. Then "he" looked at the Mafia representatives and gave them a nod. "He" then walked into Senate Air Force and called out:

"Don't violate these terms! Icovir will be pulling out her troops, and hopes that Beiraq and the Blackhelm Confederacy will do the same.

We'll have Wanderjarian troops watching over things just in case".

Senate Air Force took off, and that was the official end of the Beiraqi-Icovirian war, as far as "Vice President Ana Walad" was concerned.

On board the "Senate Air Force""Jesus, that's a nerve wracking job" said Huwa Mudarrisi, the "Vice President".

"Yes, but I'm glad you took over for me. Dunno what those Mafia guys would've done" said the real VP, Ana Walad. "Once we get back, we'll tell the Emperor of the success. We'll then start rebuilding our military and radar posts, our whole nation. Then, we'll go on and make up for lost land by conquering Somalia and Ethiopia.".

"Sounds great" said Huwa Mudarrisi, glad that the war was over.

"Allah have mercy on Hamza tul Wasl, the official cartographer of Icovir. He'll be spending his time making maps 24/7 in the near future." said Ana Walad before Senate Air Force landed on the Royal Isle.

OOC: So I lose Iran, Iraq, and Kuwait, but keep everything else, correct? I'm going off to create a new map.

Celebrations erupted all throughout Beiraq as radios and televisons blared out news of the Beiraqi victory. Military parades took place in all major Beiraqi cities, the largest having several thousand men and machines marching through Lebadad. President Chalabi waved to his hundreds, maybe thousands of cheering, adoring citizens below him from the balcony of his palace.

Tanks and infanty began pouring into the newly gained Beiraqi territories. Men now patrolled Kuwait, while ten Slava class heavy missile cruisers moved in to secure the Strait of Hormuz. Along with the ships went a large number of Beiraqi soldeirs and engineers, ordered to build naval bases and water tolls.

OOC: So I lose Iran, Iraq, and Kuwait, but keep everything else, correct? I'm going off to create a new map.[/QUOTE]

And the Strait of Hormuz, on the very top of Oman

Icovirian troops retreated from the new Beiraqi territory. Their last move of defiance was to spit on the sand before moving back.

The Emperor ordered all Chezck citizens to retreat back into Icovir.

"Don't worry, my people." said the Emperor. "Soon, we will have new lands in Africa, where there'll be no one to deny our spread."

The Emperor sent a message to Beiraq:

To: Beiraq
CC: The Blackhelm Confederacy
From: Emperor Victor I
Message: Congratulations on your victory. Icovir would like to know if an embassy exchange is possible with Beiraq? It will be great to appoint an ambassador to Beiraq so that we can prevent wars like this, even if we weren't to become allies.

OOC: So I lose Iran, Iraq, and Kuwait, but keep everything else, correct? I'm going off to create a new map.

And the Strait of Hormuz, on the very top of Oman[/QUOTE]

Ok, that's good. I'll make my map according to that.

And didn't Blackhelm get Bahrain?

Zukariaa;11856780']And didn't Blackhelm get Bahrain?

Yes but Bahrain's tiny and won't be on the map anyway.

OOC: Beiraq and Blackhelm check your telegrams please.

Icovir I guess you can change your Defcon status to a slightly lower one, preparing for invasion huh? A 'United Somalia' made a major purchase via Universal Exports. Up for a nice Vietnam in Africa?

lol, United Somalia :D

Time for Civil War, eh?

OOC: Alright, here is how I figure my shipping suffered that only an eight of my supplies reached Icovir and about an eight more were sunk by your ships. And the rest of it managed to return to the Empire after their failed mission. As well, I plan on bring about half of the supllies I promised to Icovir now since there is a ceasefire.

The Griffincrest Corporation would like to set up offices in Icovir, and the Confederacy has expressed its want to exchange embassies.

Icovir would like that. We currently have space for 5 embassies in Medinah.

Offices can be set up in any of the major cities (all cities in pink).
