OOC: This is semi-open, join by all means but if it seems overcrowded, it probably is and I would request that you dont sign up. Things become too complicated when it happens. Also, OOC chat to a minimum if possible and lets keep things non-godmoddish and stat wanking minimal. Thanks.

IC:

The building was quiet, a slight wind picking up but quickly dying back down. There was a chill in the night air. The building itself was large, the bland walls sporting a simple logo. It was the logo of ArmsTech.

A sentry unit of two men walked past the Gafeurist terrorist cell members, calling themselves "Hare Lin" (literally 'Power West'). A green metal object flew from their location, and one second later exploded. The men jumped up, five of them in total with support coming from other locations, and ran towards the soldiers they had killed. They grabbed the men's rifles, handling them like proffesionals. Indeed they were, each having "participated" in the cold war within The Aslanic Mountains region.

Hand signals were still used despite their presence being known, and an alarm sounded as searchlights flashed on. The men quickly ran towards the door battering it open with extreme force. Once inside they proceeded to head towards the warehouse section of the munitions factory. It was clear what their intention was, but they knew they had limited time before a task force arrived to deal with them. A lorry pulled up, into which they loaded whatever they could, before driving off.

"Right guys, listen up. We have limited time. Get ready to fight these bastards. We can do this." He looked about and the faces of the men were a mixture of brave and fearful. "Get into position, dont hesitate to kill. Libertas enim Gafeur Gens."

The task force was en route, a military force of thirty men. The terrorist cell had done its job though, and the region could soon be plumeted into a war. The future, once again, looked uncertain.

Do you need help, it doesn't seem like nothing you can't handle yet...

OOC: Its more the fact that a terrorist cell with a motive of forming the nation of Gafeur once again has obtained weapons in large quantities. It is essentially turning into a civil war.

IC:

The major TV network of The Aslanic Mountains, ATV, broadcast the news as a major story. "A large quantity of weapons were stolen from a warehouse by "Hare Lin", a terror organisation, earlier today. Officials fear a war could develop. Troops are searching for the stolen weapons."

Militia groups had unforcefully taken control of a few small towns without military presence, as the towns just rolled over and accepted it. These towns lay in the west, where Gafeur used to be. The military was being mobilised to counter the terrorist movements. A state of emergency was declared, as people were put, as part of the Emergency Act, under curfew as street battles seemed likely between Hare Lin and the government.

OOC: I am interested but I need to know the motives and ideaology of both sides before I jump in...

Hare Lin - Terrorist cell, Gafeurist. When the old states of Gafeur and Aslania were seperate, they warred with the Aslanics. Very militaristic and fight for the minority group of Gafeurians. Political belief of an elected leader for life.

Government - Upholding the state of The Aslanic Mountains and its constitution. Democratic. A belief in a nation of freedom and prosperity, with both races united.


Its really a case of a minority group wanting land, although around half of the Gafeurians are in favour of The Aslanic Mountains as a combination of Gafuer and Aslania.

Hand Delivered Letter by Messenger to Hare Lin

By now you are wondering how we found you, we have our ways. We offer you a chance to turn from a tiny resistance movement, into a full fledged army. We have trucks, rocket launchers, artillery, mortars, even tanks.

Imagine a place you can get all the guns and other crap you need.

We are that place, we are the Red Mafia.

Hare Lin Attacks On Civilian Targets

A further five cities in the west have been taken by Hare Lin Militiamen. The government has been slow to react so far, but has mobilised troops to defend other areas and to take the fight to the terrorists. No casualties have been reported yet after the recent outbreak of violence.

War has officially been declared on Hare Lin and the rebel Gafeurists by The Aslanic Mountains government. It is reported the Hare Lin movement is gathering support and momentum.

The APC rolled into Yew, a town in the west of TAM. Within moments of entering the town, a loud shout was heard, followed by a burst of rounds from a rifle. The driver applied the brakes to slow the vehicle as the gunner let off a few rounds into an alleyway. "Target down."

Similar actions occured all over TAM. Troops began to occupy many built up areas in the west, fortifying the towns against future attacks. It was believed that foreign nations could be supplying Hare Lin with more advanced technologies, and the government was frightened of what this could mean. Road blocks were seen cropping up around major cities, and troops manning them felt under threat all of the time. It was first blood to the government.

Orders were to kill.
