Fourty-Two men, women, and children stood lined up on the edge of the Frescan Bridge, it was late, almost 3 in the morning, but bright spotlights lit up the area... A golden APC sat idling, the man on the roof, Emperor Klipsk sat watching the scene... A scene being taped by government film crews...

"Traitors! Dissidents! Heretics!" The emperor shouted, drawing a collective shudder from the assembled victems. "By order of the Holy Courts of Eliteria, in accordance with our bylaws, all fourty-two of you have been scentenced to death by firing squad... Any last words?"

There were shouts and prayers, condemnations and forgiveness... all drowned out by the sound of 42 gunshots, and 42 splashes into the deep Frescan river... The news reel would air later that night... along with a message...

"A new Eliterian Era is upon us!"

Official communique from Skgorria Government:

It pleases us greatly that the lesser races and their foul idiotic beliefs are being challenged and wiped out all over the world

OOC: Well... at least you didn't declare war on everyone and use gunsmileys. That's a good start...

But, seriously, I thought the genocide fad ended...

We wonder why these innocent victims were killed. If not given a reason why, we will go to war with you for genocide.

The Errikan Empire will be willing to accept refugees from the current regieme once the mass invasions that are sure to come have begun.

Because they were practicing Islam, which is against our laws, only Christianity and its subgroups may be practiced in Eliteria, we allow only the light of god in our country, and will not allow the heathens to pollute it!

Emperor Klipsk

The Imperial Republic of Hataria Condems this act of Genocide and Warns Eliteria that if they don't stop killing Musliums, Hataria will See to it that It WILL Stop.

OOC: O_o! Didn't see that one comin'...

people, they're called Muslims!!!!

people, they're called Muslims!!!!

OOC: Really, you can spell it, like, 50 different ways...
Until the late 1980s, the term Moslem was commonly used. Muslims do not recommend this spelling because it is often pronounced "mawzlem" /mɒzlɛm/ which sounds somewhat similar to an Arabic word for "oppressed" (Za'lem in Arabic).[citation needed] The word is pronounced /muslem/ in Arabic, but often /mʊślɪm/ in English. The word is now most commonly written "Muslim".

Many English-language writers used to call Muslims Mohammedans or Mahometans. Muslims consider this terminology offensive, as it suggests that they worship the prophet Muhammad rather than God. It is also seen as too similar to Christians as followers and worshippers of Christ.

English writers of the 19th century and earlier sometimes used the words Mussulman, Musselman, or Mussulmaun. Variant forms of this word are still used by many Indo-European languages. These words are similar to the French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese words for "Muslim."

Please stop spamming the thread. Thanks.

Greetings from the Republic of Ackistan!

The Ackistani government finds your actions sickening.

Instead of threatening to conquer your nation, we wish to suggest unwanted Muslims be given the option to leave your country before they are executed. There are many tolerant nations, who would welcome them. You would still be rid of your Muslim population, and you would anger far fewer nations in the process.

OOC: Where is Blackhelm when you need him?

Najaster, Capital of Kahanistan

Office of the President

President Marcellus Valens sat in his office on his outsize chair, talking to Margaret Delray, the Kahanistanian Minister of Foreign Affairs. She was clearly angry. Kahanistan was home to more than two hundred million Muslims of various levels of devoutness.

"Mr. President, these people are rounding up Muslims and killing them, just for their religion. I know our troops are stretched, with the war against Kraven, but I think that we should spare some troops. This isn't just a human rights situation like Doomingsland and ViZion, this is outright genocide, and I don't think that the Islamic voters are going to stand for it. Even Tahrir al-Ummah is agitating for intervention."

Tahrir al-Ummah, roughly translated from Arabic as "National Liberty," was a secular, right-wing organization opposed to the United Nations and to most forms of intervention. It was known to have a disproportionately large number of Muslims in it (about 60%, compared to 8% in the general population), but was open to people of all races and religions. It had been a militant organization responsible for bombings and assassinations, but its leader Kemal Abdullah had renounced violence and shaped the organization into a political party, though it still had several thousand armed militants and had fought in the Freekish and Pwnage invasions. For them to advocate intervention was unheard of.

Valens looked across the desk at the Minister. "Our heavy battleships and many of our cruisers are tied up against Kraven. I will send a division of soldiers under the command of General Kantari in. He is a Muslim and a good man, very idealistic..."

Delray shook her head. "A Muslim enemy commander will only further convince them that Muslims are the enemy. While the religion of an enemy may not mean much to us, these people are so backwards that it would mean a lot to them. Might I recommend General Levitt?"

General Rachel Levitt was a controversial Imperial Marine commander. She was not a religious person, and would not likely be seen as a tool of Islamic lobbies, being ethnically (though not religiously) Jewish. A petite, full-figured woman in her late thirties, she was the type who would take advantage of her position to flout local customs when posted in Sharia-run or other ultra-conservative countries, for example, by drinking in public and wearing revealing clothes (while off-duty), and often getting into scrapes with local mutaween (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutaween) and relying on the Ministry of Defense or Ministry of Foreign Affairs to get her out of jail.

"She's a little crazy, I know, but she is a competent commander. The only reason she lost in Xirnium was that she wasn't planning on engaging troops there."

"Call her in," said President Valens. "I believe she is in the area, she submitted her name as a potential appointee for the position of Deputy Foreign Minister."

Delray was aghast. This woman has no diplomatic skills at all, she is too confrontational, too aggressive. She pulled out her cell phone and called the general.

An hour later, General Levitt was given a provisional promotion to the rank of Major General with the understanding that the promotion would become permanent after successfully completing the assignment given to her. She was in command of 25,000 Imperial Marines on route to Eliteria. Ten hours later, she was aboard a Wasp-class amphibious assault vessel, one of fifteen bound for the theater of operations. These vessels were escorted by thirty Kirov-class battlecruisers, two Nimitz-class carriers, thirty Seawolf-class submarines, and ten Ohio-class ballistic missile submarines.

It would take the fleet three days to arrive in Eliteria.

Official Government Statement
Constitutional Matriarchy of Reloria
"For a brighter tomorrow."

In an attempt to better understand the thought processes and motivations of various people both domestically and abroad, I have spent considerable amounts of my spare time studying various faiths of late. As well as the Reloricentric belief system of Nalism I have also delved into both Christianity and Islam. Not quite to the necessary level of detail to be considered a well-versed expert in the subjects, perhaps, but certainly sufficient to make educated observations. I do, of course, find them all to be nonsense, but for so many people to hold them in such high regard alone makes them important and worthy of study.

And after reading this obscene announcement I can only devise a single educated observation about the leadership of the nation of Eliteria - there is not a single Christian amongst you.

For from my research, aside from some especially violent sections within your holy texts which are thankfully absent from the beliefs of my fellow, more spiritual Relorians, I have noticed that your 'saviour' was one who consistently preached the ideals of compassion, understanding and tolerance for your fellow woman. Noting with some displeasure that your government apparently possesses none of these qualities, the observation I have just made would seem to be inescapable.

Rather than serving your god, I would assume that you are fear mongers, desperately grasping for power within your country. Such a thing is not uncommon, of course. A great many countries both in history and in modern years rely on an imaginary nemesis of some kind (usually a group of people who did nothing to deserve such a label), to redirect the attention of their people from the poorly governed and/or oppressive domestic situation, and instead onto some imagined enemy. With the 'godless heathens' beating down their doors and threatening to destroy the very fabric of society, the people will surely forgive their government as they must unite against this common enemy. It is just unfortunate that innocents have to pay the price for your comfy chair and powerful automobile.

Instead of slaughtering innocents for no good reason other than to strengthen your own political positions, I would suggest that you take to following the tenets your own messiah espouses. Or, to coin a phrase you might be familiar with, if you are indeed a Christian as you claim to be, 'do unto others as you would have them do unto'. Otherwise, I would at least suggest that you refrain from lying about your intentions. I somehow doubt that your messiah, when you see him in a short while, will be best pleased by your killing of innocents in his name.

Unfortunately the Relorian Neutrality Act prevents us for taking any punitive action against your country, other than issuing a formal condemnation - consider such a statement issued, by the way. Fortunately, it also prevents us from taking any punitive actions against those who may choose to remove the Eliterian government from power. Neither does it prevent me from extending an invitation on behalf of all Relorians for any Eliterian refugees to make their way here, where they shall be treated well by a rational government and a compassionate people. Jesus would be proud, I'm sure.

The Revolutionary Government of the Glorious Republic of Leafanistan

I am not a woman of diplomacy. They sent me once before the Second Revolution, I proceded to kill 3 men, two with my bare hands, one with a knife, the final one escaped. They all deserved it of course.

During the dawn of the Second Revolution, I fired the first shot fired by a high official with a slap to the most powerful person in the Counterrevolutionary movement, and proceded to attempt to arrest her. I failed due to the intervention of an army division.

I got my revenge when I personally stabbed to death the Field Marshall of the Army, Field Marshall Xiao with his AK's bayonet.

I give you this oppurtunity to avoid complete and utter destruction. Any Muslim is now free to immigrate to the Leafanistani Quarter of Saharistan, and will do so from your country. If you do not allow them to leave, which means accepting our offer, we will systematically destroy every single military asset, and I will personally have your head on a mantle.

So what do you say? Let them go, no guns are fired, the heathens are gone, and your country can continue its pitiful existance.

Signed,
Triumvirate Council Member Sandra O'Toole.

[END]

Another outburst like this again and Oslea will launch an attack.

We take it that you have found out how the international community reacts to such events as these,and have ceased all hostile action, unless you want 300 F/A 35s bombing your military installations and a possible arrest of you yourself by Oslean and other international troops.

In the name of Freedom and Democracy, this is unacceptable and everyone should be able to choose their faith freely, unless it infringes on other people's freedom. (eg. The Polygamist Latter Day Saints)

And after reading this obscene announcement I can only devise a single educated observation about the leadership of the nation of Eliteria - there is not a single Christian amongst you.


OOC: Ahh. Reloria. Wonderful nation.

Annnyway. I'd just like to ask... how many muslims does Eliteria have? Because if it's millions, I hardly think killing forty two of them qualifies as 'genocide' by any reasonable definition - an atrocity, certainly...

OOC: May as well speed up the pace of the thread a little.

The warfleet was now less than one day from Eliteria. The naval commander, one Admiral Magnus, sighted the land from afar and signaled his fleet.

"All ships, we are twenty hours from land. Cruiser squadrons, move into position and prepare to offer fire support for a landing. Submarine units, take point and prepare to protect the cruisers while we get ready for the attack. Landing vessels, take the rear line, there will be a cruiser squadron behind us to protect from a rear attack. For God's sake, don't attempt a landing before the enemy fleet is defeated, that cost us dearly against the Doomies."

General Levitt, aboard the RKS Stingray, one of the landing craft being used as the Admiral's command ship, got on the horn to the fleet. She spoke in a much more enthusiastic tone, as if she were looking forward to doing battle. With her temperament and general hostility to authoritarian regimes, she probably was.

"Marines! Right now we're going to beat up some genocidal Nazi wannabes. We're going to show these people what killing is all about. We're going to sink our bayonets into their intolerant guts, we're going to paint the towns red with their blood, we'll show them how it feels to be hunted down and killed for their beliefs, only it will be for their beliefs in religious intolerance rather than their religions. Now, by God, let's give them what for! But not if they surrender, we're not a bunch of war criminals." She laughed giddily, as if she were drunk or something.

Magnus grabbed her arm as she prepared to launch into one of her rants. "General, this is not an Allanean ship. You can't be this outspoken, this... crazy around the troops."

"Sure I can," replied the woman. "These people need some light-hearted encouragement, not the usual 'Half of us won't be coming back' speech that you give to your fleets."

"I had no intention of that, I expect most of us to survive, I expect us to win, we're going in to topple the regime and save the people. Now go back to your quarters until the landing."

"Yes, Daddy," said General Levitt sarcastically. She turned and headed for her quarters.

Meanwhile, the fleet continued on its way, closing in on the Eliterians...

OOC: Sorry all, I was at a friends house for a sleepover, but the power went out over there so I'm back now. I've decided to base the outcome of my nations history on this battle, it can go completely one way, or completely another. But I won't accept 200 million fleets incoming from all these nations, a fair fight is what I want. K?

Oh, and to Cherry Ridge, who has been reading this, the Emperor is purposfully 'cliche', sorta like the comic relief in the story.


The first and second naval fleets stood between the enemy fleet and the home island. High above, the orbiting cruiser directed the operation with a birds eye view.

"Incoming fleet organization has been sent to the coordinating destroyers, ASSCS (Advanced Surface-Surface Combat Sytsem) Cruisers are taking up positions and will commense firing upon our orders, conventional warheads only. The Serpent Strike submarines have taken up positions in several deep water locations, and are waiting the order to fire torpedos," The ensign on duty announced,

"Excellent, are the Strike fighters ready for launch?" The commander asked,

"Aurora fighters squads are ready, but the Artemis class bombers need another 40 minutes before they will be ready for launch,"

"They better be,"



"Emperor, the enemy armada is nearing our waters, the moment they enter we will be justified in firing on them, our land based forces are standing by to repel any invaders," One of the advisors announced to the assembled council, which included the Emperor.

"Excellent, we will show them how we respond to being pushed around!"

Finally! Someone understands sovereignty!

OOC: I understand a nation's right to exercise its rights, but there is no need to waste lives. Simply surrender the muslims to me, and we avoid any unnecessary bloodshed.

Revolutionary Government of the Glorious Republic of Leafanistan

We have an alternative, we'll pay for the transportation of the Muslims and pay you $10,000 US per person. In a short amount of time, you'll be rich, and Muslim free. Free to buy whatever you need, tanks, aircraft, etc.

If you do this, the enemy fleets will turn back, you stand no chance against the combined fleets of our allies.

Supreme Emperor Klipsk

Leafanistani Missile Train in Saharistan

A single Shaheen missile took off from the train, and was on a collision course for the Supreme Emperor's palace. But something was wrong. It didn't read as nuclear, in fact the warhead seemed to be filled with slag. The Shaheen also didn't seperate its stages properly.

It would land as a burned out hulk on the Supreme Emperor's lawn. The warhead would contain a note: "Peek-a-boo, I see you. ;)".

Preparing for the landing, 100 km from shore (T - 3 hours)

The Kahanistanian warfleet, some 47 warships and 40 submarines, had switched into a battle formation; the fifteen amphibious assault ships, lined five across, three deep, advanced behind a column of ten cruisers, with a rear guard of another ten cruisers behind it. The other cruisers were five on each side, and the carriers were inside the cruisers' defensive belt with the Wasps.

As soon as the attack submarines leading the fleet moved to within 75 km of the shoreline, the signal was given to attack. Each of the two carriers disgorged forty F-35 Lightning II stealth VTOL fighters to deal with the expected enemy aerial response, as well as ten F-14 Tomcat interceptors, two E-3 Sentries, eight E-2 Hawkeyes, ten C-130 Herculeses, and ten MiG-35's.

At the same time, the front line of Kirov-class cruisers let off a volley of P-700 Granit missiles. While these missiles were primarily anti-shipping missiles, the ones fired from the front line of the fleet were fitted with 750-kg FAE warheads. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-700_Granit) These missiles possessed a range of 550 kilometers - they would be able to penetrate some 475 kilometers into enemy territory, but such was not their goal. They merely aimed to soften up the enemy's coastal defenses before the amphibious assault took place. With ten cruisers firing, and each one holding twenty VLS for the Granit missile, this meant two hundred fuel-air warheads, with a combined mass of 150 tons of fuel-air explosive, sailed toward the enemy defenses. Such firepower was greater than that of a small tactical nuke.

Admiral Aurelius Junius Magnus, the overall invasion commander, watched from his command vessel as the missiles sailed toward the beach. General Levitt, who would command the Marines soon to storm the beach, stood next to him, a full ten inches shorter than the naval commander but no less imposing in her own way. She nodded grimly as the air forces and missiles moved toward their targets to prepare for the assault by her troops.

"Admiral... if you need me, I'll be below decks, with the troops." She smiled warmly for the first time on that deployment. The Admiral dismissed her with a nod and she turned, heading for the lower decks to join the assault forces.

"We're detecting incoming missiles!" a young officer on the bridge of the lead cruisers.

"Send up a flak wall, and relay the origins to our attack subs! Get on the horn with Orbital command, and tell them to hit each and every one of their ships back!" The captain barked...

The roar of the flak wall was astounding, the sky lit up as pieces of metal shot into the air, attempting to snap the missiles out of the sky. However, moments later, the noise was nothing compared to the sound of 24 Rail Slugs whistling down through the atmosphere, bright golden thunderbolts that looked as though god himself was throwing them.

Meanwhile, half of the Serpent strike subs went to intercept the enemy subs, while the other half were dispatched to passivly harrass the enemy formation, with orders to sink the troop transports first.

"Sir, should we order our air units into the skies?"

"Yes, launch against the enemy aerial units and have the otillary continue to shell our enemy. Lets put the fear of god into them!"

Admiral Magnus had expected that the Eliterians would possess anti-missile capabilities, that was why he had fired two hundred of them at once at such a small area. While dozens of missiles were lost, many more struck home, engulfing whatever they struck, be it bunkers, coastal defenses, or troop formations, in torrents of infernal fury.

Rather than simply order the rest of the fleet to open fire, as VLS were difficult at best to reload, the Kahanistanian Admiral ordered his fleet to charge the Eliterian position. He knew that the amphibious assault vessels would be the first targets, they were carrying the invasion force. This was also why he had chosen to use an amphibious assault ship as his command vessel; sharing the dangers of the crew tended to be good for the crew's morale.

While the Seawolf submarines did battle with the Eliterian Serpents, those vessels that approached the troop transports would have to go through the Kirovs surrounding them, which were armed with SS-N-15 ASW missiles and VA-111 Shkval supercavitation torpedoes. Each Kirov had ten torpedo tubes.

As if that weren't bad enough, the Wasps (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wasp_class) had their own ASW helicopters for dealing with enemy submarines, as well as a contingent of attack planes; the F-35 was used instead of the outdated AV-8B attack planes. However, only twelve appeared on each Wasp, rather than 20 AV-8B Harriers.

However, the Soviet Republic had not thought to deal with enemy ortillery; intelligence said that Eliteria had none, and the Republic Navy did not have any heavy battleships to spare even if they had expected it.

"Incoming!" Admiral Magnus roared as twenty-four huge pikes rained down from the heavens upon his fleet barely twice that number. Four Kirovs and two Wasps were struck and listing, and one of the carriers was severely damaged. Luckily, most of the planes had already taken off, but an AWACS plane and seven F-35's too close to ground zero were destroyed.

"Forward!" said the Admiral. He knew that the ortillery would no longer be a threat if they could get ashore and mix it with the Eliterian ground forces... unless they were willing to kill their own troops, or worse, civilians.

The fleet pushed forward as fast as the nuclear engines would take them. General Levitt took the microphone from Admiral Magnus.

"Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead!" she yelled at the top of her lungs. "I've always wanted to say that to a fleet," she said loudly, the microphone still on and the entire fleet hearing her.

Magnus frowned. Lecturing that crazy woman would not be helpful in this time or place.

The coastline had been battered, as had the cliffs, destroying more in civilian buildings then military hardware, 3 forward bunkers were completely decimated, but the biggest fires were caused by 2 gas stations in the coastal town that had been hit... Mobile missile platforms, anti aircraft equipped SAM Systems, and S9 Reverence Tanks continued to roll towards the area.

The admiral of the Eliterian fleet watched as the enemy fleets took some damage from the individual rail slugs.

"Order the Otillary to focus fire on one ship at a time! Fire skipper missiles at the lead ships, and order the fighters to destroy the helicopters where they hover!"

Skipper missiles skip, wouldnt you know it, they hop up and down as they go through the oceans waves, it was as though a sea of massive flying fish were headed for the enemy.

Above, the golden rain stopped momentarily, this time, there was a single massive light whistled towards the enemy ship, and another would every 12 seconds as the otillary revised its targeting systems.


"Blue squad, you have your targets, hit em hard!" came a voice over the radio, 15 Aurora fighters fired missiles at the helicopters hovering over the scene, the missiles dropped for a split second, just falling to keep the speedy Auroras from hitting the tail end of thier own weapons, before igniting and racing off to hit their targets...

OOC: so, Ortillery ay? well, I can handle it.

IC: With Eliteria basicly telling Hataria to *&^) it self, Empress Neherenia soon decided to Show the Up Start What Hataria can do. It was Time for The Martians to come.

The "Martians" the Hatarians had were not little Green Men, but The VC-89 Mars Fighter, a "Space Plane" as one could call it. The Hatarian Space Command had made it for use for Science, But they also made it as a Anti-Satellite Defense Fighter, made to launch The RAGI-9N Anti-Satellite Missile.

20 of the Mars Fighters were sent up, luckly they were made for Long Range and they were heading for Eliteria.

OOC: I am now PMT if you guys like to know.:cool:

Hataria, I already said I'm not accepting any more nations in this, I want a fair fight, not a stompfest.

Fair fight? Hataria will pwn you. (http://nstracker.retrogade.com/index.php?nation=eliteria&nation2=Hataria&nation3=&nation4=&nation5=&nation6=) Not quite a wise choice.

Thats why I said I'm not going to accept him in the RP, its now closed to any more players...

As far as the invasion commanders knew, no civilian populations were in this area. They therefore had been fairly cavalier about unloading large quantities of highly destructive ordnance onto the coastline in order to pave the way for an invasion.

Having learned some lessons from their own experience with SAM systems, the Kahanistanian Admiral ordered a SEAD wing, ten F-35's and ten MiG-35's, to move toward the coastline. Any radar beacon that turned on would immediately detect a HARM zooming toward its position at Mach 4.

Another wing containing the rest of the MiG's moved out to protect the ASW helicopters. They did not need necessarily to shoot them down, but just to dogfight them and stay alive while the ASW helicopters fired on the submarines. The ASW, for their part, only needed to keep the subs engaged until the assault vessels could make shorefall; the naval battle would therefore only last an hour or two.

Roughly four thousand Marines were in the water, in lifeboats or floating in life jackets when their ships were struck, and several hundred of them had been incinerated when the ortillery hit. Those who were in lifeboats moved toward the shore, that was where a rescue mission would likely land, and they could always contribute to the invasion force if they made it to shore.

The fleet now changed formation, so that the remaining forces were in three columns, each with two cruisers, one landing ship, two cruisers, one landing ship, etc. There were a total of 26 Kirovs and 13 Wasps still afloat. The assault ships prepared for a landing, and the cruisers let loose with a wave of SAM's, each of the 26 remaining battlecruisers firing four SA-N-6 Grumble missiles, a third of their complement, or 104 missiles in all.

OOC: You havn't actually engaged my ships yet, only the proxy weapons. But I'm assuming the last attack was directed at them, correct me if I'm wrong.


The golden rods falling from high orbit abruptly stopped, unbeknownst to the enemy, they had begun to overheat, and required cool down.

The SAM Batteries were still enroute and not unpacked as of yet, and thus, while unable to fire at the approaching fighters, or even detect them, they were not able to be detected via radar either.

Submarine warfare had never been a strong side of the Eliterian military, and much of the overtech had not been able to be grafted into their designs, they relied on thier small size, superior speed, and nimbleness to seemingly jump away from torpedos, but their numbers were being slowly eaten away.

However, in the skies the Eliterian fighters were king, not allowing themselves to be dragged into dogfights, they spralled upwards after loosing another volley of missiles at the helicopters, while attempting to lead the enemy fighters over the range of the AA Missiles or flak wall on the ships which stood between the enemy floatilla and the beach.

As a volley of missiles screamed towards the Eliterian ships, the flak wall went up again, it was enough to stop the brunt of the missiles, but 6 cruisers had been hit, 2 were listing heavily, and another had exploded outright, sending shrapnel and smoke hundreds of meters into the air as the ammunition storage took a direct hit. Other ships had taken glancing blows, and damage from the explosion of detonating missiles when they hit the wall of flak. Only 19 cruisers and 6 destroyers were still in working battle condition, the other ships in the navy were stuck in dry dock.

"Lets return the favor!" the Admiral of the Eliterian fleet yelled at his officers, his ship was one of the ones that had been hit, and the foredeck was smoking. Four missile bays on the top of the ships deck slid up, revealing a bay of launchers, similar actions were occuring across the fleet.

With a single word, a volley of over 100 missiles went screaming back towards the enemy fleet, homing in on painted targets, from landing craft, to enemy cruisers.

"Noah, this is God." Came a call over the radio,

"Noah here."

"Cooldown sequence has commensed, expect a few minutes before we can have another firing solution."

OOC: You haven't actually engaged my ships yet, only the proxy weapons. But I'm assuming the last attack was directed at them, correct me if I'm wrong.
OOC: No, my last wave of missiles was aimed at your fighters.

The ASW helicopters suffered devastating losses, 14 of them exploded in midair and another 17 were damaged with their crews jumping into the sea. The Kahanistanian MiG's fired on the Eliterian fighters, and two more Kirovs began taking on water as their missile storage chambers were struck.

Admiral Magnus moved from his command vessel to a cruiser by helicopter, and allowed General Levitt to order the landing of the remaining Wasps while he ordered another wave of FAE-loaded missiles as covering fire.

General Levitt wasted no time. "We're going ashore, for freedom! For the freedoms of religion and from religion!"

"De oppresso liber!" the Marines replied. They began to sing the Kahanistanian battle anthem (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-ZRp0eK12o) at the top of their lungs, getting fired up to invade Eliteria.

The Kahanistanian fighters did not move over the beach, their mission was merely to engage enemy planes that threatened the fleet. Fighters moving away from the battle scene were not engaged.
