Atu, Caluichstan:

Two young soldiers stood with automatic weapons stood in front of the Presidential Palace. They wore smart grey uniforms and had trimmed beards and wore grey turbans. They were apart of the Presidential Guard and would protect the President of Caluichstan to the death. The unit they were apart of had 2,000 foreign-trained Caluichstan troops who were highly trained in combat and were of the 'upper-class' compared to the additional 38,000 other Caluichstan soldiers and 15,000 police officers. However, as a whole, 55,000 soldiers in a small country of 5 million people was not too bad.

One of the young soldiers looked as the President, Algai Brushne walked down the hallway in a black suit and red tie. He stopped at the door and one of the guards opened it and he walked in and they closed it. The two soldiers then marched off to guard the perimeter, they knew that whatever the meeting was about they were not suppose to hear about it.

Algai Brushne;

Algai Brushne is a 43 year old Harvard educate who use to be a professor. He is also a non-Muslim Christian in a small nation that had 85% Muslim and 10% Christian and 5% Jewish. Algai Brushne was a sharp intelligent man and was extremely intellectual as he would be able to beat anyone down in the political ring. However, this meeting was more mportant then engaging a opposition member in a political arena, this was about a valuable black resource that had been found in the southern section of the country.

Oil!

"Hello Gentlemen! I would like to know the status of this value resource that we have discovered in the southern sections of our country and what kind of quantity we may have."

Ismaili Rabin, a 57 year old Muslim Interior minister nodded and stood at what the president said and looked around at the table to the other ten or twelve men who were ministers in the President's government.

"Right now preliminary reports state that not only in the south but also in the central and western regions of Caluichstan, no more then 50 miles from here, huge deposits of oil has been found. This oil is estimated to be up to 8 billion barrels of oil found in these deep and unused reservoirs. Because it is untapped and the world needs oil we believe this could fund our economy alone for the next 200 years. Operations state that by next year we can have 15 oil refineries up and running pumping out 1 million barrels of oil per year."

Ismali sat down with a huge grin on his face.

Algai nodded. "Begin operations".

Foreign Ministry Statement:

To nation-states. Today the glorious government of Caluichstan has found reservoirs that have minimually 8 billion barrels of oil and in this needy world we look to our foreign friends to assist and set up relations with our nation with regards to the oil that we will begin pumping by next year.

Central Hall, Kurskograd:

"Oil, Primo, oil!"
"Yes, Darra, I heard you the first time. But what's the hurry? We have plenty of resources - why do we need this backwater's oil?"
"Well, Primo, we don't need it, but we can train our troops, bring them into our sphere of influence, gain a valuable ally, and - of course - exploit their resources rather than ours. Besides, it'll be useful to have a stockpile; the nuclear emergency shelters may need more oil than we've planned for."
"Oh very well. I authorise a small diplomatic unit to go out there and make overtures to the Caluichstanis. They can take some ... 'advisors' as well."
"Very well, Primo. I'll get right on it. Action!"
"Unity!"

Five Days Later...

As the executive jet neared Caluichstan's airspace, the ambassador tapped the pilot on the shoulder.

"Begin broadcasting that message, will you?"
"Right away, sir."
"Excellent."

Atopian Diplomatic Flight 28 Alpha Delta Foxtrot calling Caluichstan. We come bearing a diplomatic party interested in opening economic and social relations with your nation. Please respond, over.

The Atu ground control heard the message from the plane that wanted to land. A message was quickly relaid back to the pilot.

Atopian Diplomatic Flight 28 Alpha Delta Foxtrot this is ground control. The Caluichstan government has given approval for you to land at runway I - B 2 that is the runway that you are flying over now. Once you land, a delegation from the Foreign ministry will come and meet you at our main terminal.

Several Foreign ministry diplomats, not really high-ranking had to scramble to the airport from the foreign ministry office which was 15 minutes away when they heard about the trade delegation. They had quickly arrived at the terminal and waited for the Atopian delegation. They would then lead them to the capital city palace where they would meet with Foreign Affairs heads, and the President themselves or so they were told.

ADF28 to Ground Control, many thanks, bringing her in now.

As the jet taxied into the terminal, the diplomatic mission assembled by the door, ready to leave. Three high-ranking Foreign Ministry officials were present, along with a five-strong security detail and two officers from the Atopian Military Command's Land and Air forces.

Official Clandonian Corporation Communication

Communication to the government of Caluichstan:

The Corporation would be interested in setting up refinery and oil field instalations. We can gurantee security through the Corporations security forces and other associated benefits.

We ask for our scientific teams to be sent to check the grade of the oil and to begin mapping of the geological structure of the land to asses its use for construction of terminals for transporation back to Clandonia.

The three foreign ministry diplomats noticed the Atopiana plane taxi near the terminal and waited for the detail to disembark from the aircraft and reach the terminal where they would then take them to the Presidential Palace.

Communication to the government of Caluichstan:

We ask for our scientific teams to be sent to check the grade of the oil and to begin mapping of the geological structure of the land to asses its use for construction of terminals for transporation back to Clandonia.

Caluchistan Statement to Clandonia:

We thank the said nation for their offer and we do accept. If they want to send a geological team to test the surface and have corporation run oil refineries set up in our nation that would be fine as well. As long as a trade delegation accompanies the team to sign an agreement on how the operation will occur that will suit the government of Caluichstan.

Caluichstani, Musaf Ablami, sat in his home as a foreigner within The Aslanic Mountains. He was alone in the house and had just come home from work when he turned on the TV. Sure enough, the news came on.

"Reports earlier today released by the government show that Caluichstan poses a, quote, imminent threat to the international population." The screen changed to a typical presentation in which quotes from the report were laid over a faded map of Caluichstan.

A quote read, "the threat posed by the Caluichstani government is considerable, and their ability to launch dirty bombs into some of the major countries of the world is a threat not to be ignored". Musaf stood up disgusted at what he was hearing, he wasnt sure whether it was true or not, but couldnt listen anymore.

The report concluded just before he turned over that the Aslanic Defence Council was holding a meeting to consider further actions. A small invasion force meanwhile was being prepared in the event that something should happen. Allies would sure enough flock to the cause, they were sure.

The report was sent off to many nations, including Greenmanbry.

Caluchistan Statement to Clandonia:

We thank the said nation for their offer and we do accept. If they want to send a geological team to test the surface and have corporation run oil refineries set up in our nation that would be fine as well. As long as a trade delegation accompanies the team to sign an agreement on how the operation will occur that will suit the government of Caluichstan.

Communication:

The team is on its way, expect a Corporation marked C-17 Globemaster within the next eight hours. Our security forces will begin mapping any potential external and internal threats to the programe.

OOC: Sounds like a good start to the war. Using oil money for dirty bombs would be a good strategy for invading a country.

(Not looking to do that though)

The Scandinvan Empire upon hearing of your troubles with a corporation over your discovery of large oil fields in your nation wishes to tell you if needed we shall supply you troops that you may use as your own.

At the newly constructed complex of Greenmanbry's Ministry of Defense, General Nicholas Alexander was reviewing daily briefings in his office. His television was on, its volume set to low, and it was tuned to one of the country's many twenty four hour news networks. He hummed as he flipped through the myriad pages in front of him.

"...launch dirty bombs into some of the major countries of the world is a threat not to be ignored."

Upon hearing the words "dirty bombs", the general dropped the pile of memos he was flipping through. With his gray eyes fixated on the television screen, he began to recall the tales of the horror Greenmanbry's cities witnessed during its civil war. Dirty bombs detonated in the Republic's cities wiped out a great number of people.

A knock on the door startled Alexander. He looked up and saw the Minister of Defense standing in the doorway: "I see you heard the news?"

"Indeed, sir."

"Every piece of intelligence we have relating to Caluichstan paints them in an... unflattering... light. We have reports of terrorist cells operating from that country. One of the briefings between your hands, as a matter of fact, concerns the chatter surrounding some terrorist masterminds who have settled there, we think."

"Should we brief the pres-"

"I've set up the meeting. We're going there now. The Aslanic Mountains seems intent on involving themselves in Caluichstani affairs."

"You think that's the solution, sir? Invading Caluichstan when all the elements of our Armed Forces are witnessing massive upgrades?"

"Heck no. Not invade. But I intend to tell the president that we should support efforts by TAM to counter the threat posed by the Caluichstanis."

===

As the delegation strode along the terminal's access corridor into the building, they caught sight of the Caluichstani diplomats and officials waiting to greet them...

Atopiana: Grantham Air Force Base:

Engines idling, the huge forms of the Atopian Aerospace Federation 2100-E super-carrier long distance transports growled their impatience as hundreds of troopers marched aboard.

Below them, the bulk transports' cargo bays began taking on board APAVs, ammunition, supplies, and other vital equipment. When fully loaded, each 2100-E could carry three hundred tons of soldier and equipment. Indeed, several of the beasts already sat, silent, awaiting the end of the loading operation, with their cargo bays full of APAVs.

Loadmasters called out to their friends and comrades as II Corps, Third Field Army, went to war...

[The Office, Presidential Complex, Greenmanbry]

"Mr. Secretary, I don't like where this conversation is headed!" The president was now steaming.

"Mr. President, we have an obligation t-"

"No, Mr. Secretary," the President interrupted, "Our obligation is to our own. YOUR obligation is to pursue peace."

"Our obligation is to our own? Is that what you're gonna tell our NATO allies when one of them is attacked?"

"That's different. Our membership in NATO is a commitment and a privilege. What you're asking me to approve is a shift in foreign policy. You want me to turn this nation into the world's policeman, and that's probably not a good idea."

"Mr. President.. We'll be helping TAM with intelligence and countering any threats made against them. That's it. Our material support will be in the form of one regiment of the the Hammerheads, IF it comes to war."

The president sighed. he turned to General Alexander, "Mr. Chairman?"

"I fully agree with Secretary Michaelson, sir. It's imperative that Greenmanbry counters terrorism. And TAM's intelligence matches ours - our enemy IS a threat to the world."

"Very well. Mr. Chairman, prepare a Force Depletion Report for the particpation of a regiment of the Hammerhead Corps in the Caluichstani conflict. I want numbers. What's going in, what's coming out. Best case scenario. Worst case scenario."

Clandonian Corporation Headquarters, Clanon City

The boardroom directors for security and inteligence had been called in to dicuss the posibility of making a 'deal they can't refuse' to the Caluichstanis.

'It would seem a lot more logical sense to just take the country with the Corporations security forces. It would be a peace of cake, we can then enslave the population and sell them to the Leafanistani Mafia.' Spoke Ret. General Tetigen, a former high ranking officer of the Army.


'I like that idea, do you think the military would be avaible to help?' Spoke the Corporations head of operational security Vladmimer Domotron.

'It depends, I can speak to a few contacts. I can't promise anything but I think our own forces could do the work. The military would slow things down, the government would be seen as war mongering we would be forced out.'

'OK, if anything does start up we go in and secure the oil fields.'

The meeting ended quickly with the members returning to their various task to commence this new corporate aquisition.

The government of Caluichstan was unaware of the diplomatic, political, and security situations that were going in some foreign countries with regards to the security situation that was apart of their nation's new found oil wealth.

Since the nations of Antopia and Clandonia had not signed any contracts yet, the government was not too concerned with that situation. They were plesently surprised when they got an offer of troops from the nation of Scandinavia Empires to use in 'some conflict'.

To Scandinavia Empires:

We would like to thank you for your offer of troops to secure our oil refineries and oil rigs.

Southern Caluichstan:

Several green jeeps flew down the dirt road and stopped at the barely erected oil rig. There was about ten workers, some of them foreigners and some of them Caluichstan citizens who were working as hard as they could to get this rig up and stable, and then getting it up and running so it could begin to pump oil out of the reserve and either waiting Caluichstan citizen hands or to foreign hands. These workers were not for any foreign company and were for a small local corporation called Islami Oil.

The three green jeeps with several armed soldiers stopped with sand flying up high and a young officer got out of the vehicle. He went close to the lead worker and explained to him that this was the security detachment for this oil rig. They were setting up a small post for his dozen men just a little ways down the road, in between the oil rig and a village about ten miles from the rig location.

The men nodded and went back to work with their machinery to get this rig up and running.

An inbound fleet of C-130K's arrived, about ten of them landing on a dustry area of the country, out rolled Armoured Range Rovers with corporation marks and troops from the security forces.

This was the spot that was now under Corporation control or else....

Back in Clandonia it self at the Corporations largest base of operations at Kirkland several C-17's were being loaded with Abrams Tanks, stock bought ready for such operations that were about to be undertaken. The Corporation had strong ties to the military and if they needed it, a lot more firepower would be avaible...

The government in Atu had not been informed about the landing of the Clandion Prime national forces and claiming that it was their territory. They had not come to the capital and asked where they would land and set up a contract with the Caluichstan government on what would be foreign and what would be Caluichstan royalities and oil supply.

To Clandonia Prime:

The national government of Caluichstan does not oppose the setting up of your area for Clandonia Prime drilling. However, you have not sent a delegation to the capital to work out an arraignment to find and extract the oil. We ask that a delegation comes to Caluichstan capital of Atu to work this arraignment just like the Atopian government has done.

The three diplomats waited at the terminal for the Ataopian delegation and since it was taking the delegation a while to clear through the baggage search and everything, they had been able to call for several respectable Humvees to be brought to the front of the terminal so when they led the group out they could take them in a bulletproof Humvee to the Presidential Palace, in full safety and security.

Official Clandonian Corporation Communication

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/madnukedude/ClandonianCorporationLogo.png

The Corporation regrets to inform you that we do not do delegations, our forces have set up and we will transfer 2% of profits to your nation. If these terms are unsatisfactory then we regret this as well.

Any resistance will be regarded as possible conflict and Corporation forces will defend our assets at all costs.

Imperial Message to the Clandonian Corporation:

The Empire herby says that we say your intervention into the nation of Caluichstan as an act of war against that nation and is willing to intervene here if you do not compensate Caluichstan properly and if you do not respect its sovereignty.

Imperial Message to Caluichstan:

We offer you the aide of 20 legions of Imperial soldiers to be sent to your nation to aide in its possible defense against an invasion. It shall compromise a total of 100,000 Imperial soldiers, 8,000 Humvees, 5,000 machine gun crews, 2,400 Abram Tanks, 4,000 artillery pieces of varying size, 1,800 Chammanches, 1,200 Black Hawks, and 1,600 F-18s.

To Imperial Scandinavians:

The nation of Caluichstan thanks you for your assistance. These troops would assist us in protecting our nation from any attack.

The small military post near the rig was extremely active as Caluichstan troops continued to build their outpost. Elsewhere in the country of Caluichstan several more police stations and outposts of ther military were going up near construction sites that were constructing oil rigs.

In the capital city of Atu, defence ministers agreed that a force of narly 50 armed troops should be stationed in southern Caluichstan, near the area that Calondia Prime had asserted for their corporation. These fifty troops would be from the highly specialized presidential guard who would set up a post there, near the foreign presence and that will force that government to arrive and negotiate in the capital city of Caluichstan for a fair oil deal.

Several military trucks were stationed outside the defence ministry and they were filled with Muslim and Christian soldiers in their uniforms who at the order of the defence ministry headed down the main street of Atu and would arrive at the southern location in several hours.

To Imperial Scandinavians:

The nation of Caluichstan thanks you for your assistance. These troops would assist us in protecting our nation from any attack.Imperial Message to Caluichstan:

We hope they serve you well and we wish to tell you that you should not be afraid to send them into open battle as they are professional soldier of the Empire and all shall your orders as if they were those of the Scandinvan Emperor Olaf.

We aplogise for our previous statment, we fell the 2% may not be enough. Our board of directors feels 10% would be a more fair figure. We also ask if you are willing to accept the sale of human resources as we are in great need of them at this moment in time.

To Clandonia Prime:

The nation of Caluichstan feels that it would accept 15% of the resources from the section you have taken for Caluichstan use and for Caluichstan profits. We would be more then happy to have a few dozen or more of our workers either from the countryside or from the capital arriving at the camp that you have set up and working for your corporation. Just state how many you would be looking to have. We are sending fifty government troops to set up a small base just off of the area that you have for your oil rigs, and if you need any more assistance or requests just ask them and they will assist or forward it to Atu to be authorized by our government.

We will agree to the 15% figure after a matter of good will, you do not understand our need of human resources this is off another matter. Our nation needs over a 1000 humans a month back in Clandonia in various work programes. If you could provide these you would be paid $1 million per thousand people you give to us.

The vehicles that carried the fifty soldiers arrived near the location of Calondia Prime section. There they quickly established a small base.

To Calondia Prime:

That is acceptable to 15%. What we can do, is provide you with 120 citizens who are poor in our capital city of Atu or in other centers and provide them as workers to work in your nation.

bump

In Atu, government officials decided to continue to wait for the Atopiana delegation to decide on what resources that nation was going to need and what area it was going to extract from the ground and what kind of profit the Caluichstan government was going to get out of it. So far, with ten oil wells up and running, they had been able to fund a small hospital that was designed to treat woman who were pregnant.

The order was given as well as oil to be taken to start collecting humans for work back in Clandonia or for the Mafias slave army in the fights in South East Asia or the new battles unfolding in Kravania and Galation. If anyone resisted they would face the rath of the corporation, aremd with their M4's the security forces patrolled around in their Armoured Range Rovers and newly purchased Abrams Tanks. The perfectic military might would not defeat the Corporations might.

No one would know a few thousand civillians going missing....

An updated report emerged from the Defence Network, collaborated by the intelligence services. Fears were confirmed in this latest one, saying that money was indeed being pumped into acts of terrorism, and that Caluichstan was harboring terrorists. Also, the peoples lives were at stake, as Caluichstan was also involved in slavery and the trade of humans. Now was the time to act. It was not known who these people were being sold to, but that was not TAMs concern. This had to stop at the source.

Admiral Watkins stood aboard the aircraft carrier the AMS Harlow. It was ready for re-deployment after a very short stay in the largest naval harbour in Aslania. It was part of an allied invasion force about to set sail. The final order was eagerly awaited as top politicians, advisors to the government and heads of the intelligence service and military branches discussed the imminent threat.

It was almost certain what the decision would be, and camera crews were ready to film the AMS Harlow leaving port with its fleet. Cargo planes carrying troops and equipment that would be needed including tanks, APCs and other things sat waiting on runways throughout TAM.

Watkins inspected his staff. Morale was high. The crew were readied and eager to get going. The last of the pilots filed on.

Chairman Clarkson read the report, raising his eyebrows. "Slavery, terrorism and dirty bombs? TAM's intelligence is sure? If I was invading a country I would cover it up with something like this, ask for proof."

Dear those two Aslanic guys,
we wish to see proof of slavery and terrorism in Caluichstan before taking any action.

[[OOC: You may like to read the OOC thread, dont have a link but its called "OOC: International War". It would explain EVERYTHING im doing. The only 'proof' is what my intelligence service has 'come up with'. Therefore any proof would contained within the report.]]

The Caluichstan army in the capital city of Atu were surprised to see some of these newer military vehicles patrolling the capital. Early reports indicated from some soldiers that radioed it in to high command that up to 100 people had been taken off the street, mostly poor people who resides in the worst off areas of Caluichstan but they were Caluichstan people nonetheless. The defence minister notified the President.

Looking at the report the president of caluichstan nodded his head. Several hundred people were being removed from the streets of the capital of Atu and their they would be given jobs in a much larger nation that took care of them. However he decided to write a letter to the Clandonia Prime President.

Dear President;

I would like to thank you for the corporation effort to take several hundred poor Caluichstan people and give them homes and jobs wthin your nation. You will be happy to note that we are very strong people and I hope our small community will be profitable to your nation. However, if anyof the citizens taken to work in your nation wants to come home at any time, we will be more then happy to pay the costs of taking them back.

Dear Who ever in Caluichstan,

Of course, we at the Corporation care about our workers. The workers will be happy to leave if they wish to leave.

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

What the Caluichstanis didn't know the workers were condemned to death either way. Taken on C-5 Galaxy, tighthly packed together. Sent either to Clandonia or the front lines of where the Mafia needed slaves for the slave army. No workers would want to be back because they would be so happy doing what they did. It was a time of happy, shiney people. The shineyest worked in the uranium mines....

Algai Brushne, thePresident of Caluichstan was happy with the response that he had received. With reports that only 200+ people had been taken away to jobs in the Clandonia Prime country he was content.

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

Southern Caluichstan:

General Amir Tunin looked at his troops. He had fifty troops stationed at this makeshift base with several transport, 2 AP3 and 1 tank and just a little ways away was the encampment of Clandonia Prime soldiers and workers, working to extract the oil from the center of Caluichstan and send 85% to foreign markets. However, General Tunin was not o concerned about that, he was more concerned with his troops who were slow in building the communications center.

[Manama, Greenmanbry :: 3:00 A.M. Local Time]

Amid the darkness of the hangers at the vast Estral Air Force Base, the low murmur of idling engines was barely audible. An unmarked E-15 transport hugged a taxiway close to a support hangar. Air Force technicians were quietly going about the business of removing all remaining Air Force markings and inspecting the plane's readiness for its upcoming mission. Two companies of Shock Troopers were seated in the nearby hangar, listening intently as a Colonel of the Republic's Army briefed them on their upcoming mission.

The silence was broken by the deafening sound of an E-30 surveillance platform returning from a routine mission. The Colonel, disgruntled at the interference caused by the plane, paused his briefing while the noise subsided. As he regrouped, he sighed and muttered under his breath, "The sooner the Joint Chiefs give me the name of the commander in charge of Aslanic operations, the sooner I can get to coordinating offensive strategies with him." And, with that, his eyes were once again thoroughly engrossed in the multitude of maps in front of the assembly as he continued his briefing.

ooc: TAM - Would Watkins be in charge of theater operations throughout this conflict?
Caluichstan - see OOC thread please

OOC: This sounds like a cool one.

Government Statement to the World:

We thank the national governments of Atopiana and Clandonia Prime for getting involved and helping assist in creating oil rigs and pumping the oil out of Caluichstan, as well as the Clandonia Prime for assisting with removing several hundred poor Caluich who will be working happily in that nation. Today however we ask for more foreign assistance and ask other members to come and set up corporations and oil rigs within our rich resources so the people of Caluichstan can benefit from its wealth.

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

President Algai Brushne stood on he platform and smiled out at the crowd of reporters from Caluichstan major news organizations. Today, a woman's abuse shelter and a mosque were being opened by governmental monies received by national companies pumping oil and from the first shipment of Clandonia monies.

The Clandonian Corpoation was getting a good deal, already they had a nice plane full of people in exchange for the Mafia with some nice shiney bits of Kraven military gear. The oil was flowing nicely, encouragin the Clandonian Stock Exchange of the CPFTSE stock group to go up 200 points.

Helping the economy and slaves, what more could a nation and corporation want?

[[OOC: You may like to read the OOC thread, dont have a link but its called "OOC: International War". It would explain EVERYTHING im doing. The only 'proof' is what my intelligence service has 'come up with'. Therefore any proof would contained within the report.]]

OOC: I know...

IC: The Chairman read the intelligence report and smiled. "OK prepare an invasion force and inform TAM we're with them."

New Bonzawaniiaen ships were on their way to revenous with their Aslanic counterparts. A massive aircraft carrier loaded with transport planes was in the centre, sourrouned by other transports and carriers, which were escorted by destroyers. Around the secure parts of the country other transport planes were being loaded, preparing for the order to go...

The Corporation had now secured all their chosen planned fields of interest and brought in heavy security of their own with the M1 Abrams tanks, Strykers and Armoured Range Rovers. A total ground team of 4000 PMC's of the Corporation stood guarding these, heavilly armoured incase anyone tried to take them from the Clandonian Corporation

The airfield with the 'workers' was being constructed to bring in more heavy armour of the Corporation as well as more SU-30's for air defence. The longer runway would allow more slave flights or the black flight plans that never excisted to come and leave...

The government of Caluichstan was getting kind of nervous with the equipment that the Clandonia Prime government had been bringing into their nation. And with flights to Clandonia Prime at least 700 citizens from Caluichstan had left.

The President of Caluichstan wrote to the President of Clandonia Prime:

Why does your corporation and nation need military equipment such as M1 Abrams tanks, Strykers and Armoured Range Rovers, when Caluichstan is a soveriegn nation. Are armed forces are an average size and would be able to assist in any attack by internal forces. Please respond!

OOC: Caluichstan does not know about Greenmabry and Aslantic Mountains or New Bonzawaniia attacks.

The Aslanic fleet contacted other allied forces requesting sharing of intelligence and to plan the attack. It was to be proposed that the nation be split three ways at the end, each taking a third of the oil whichever part they ended up with. However, nobody knew of this motive. Restoration of peace and the eventual dismantling of a fatal weapons project were the "priorities".

The fleet drifted ever closer as an air base in a neighbouring nation was sending high altitude recon planes over the nation, obtaining maps and locating major strongpoints and defences. The Allies would be well prepared, but it was left to be seen whether they could both win over the corporations to their side and the war.

Only time would tell.

Message from the Corporation:

You have nothing to fear, this is just added secuirty under standard corporation foreign deployment procedures. You have nothing to fear.

Several planes were reported over the nation. They were believed to be corporation planes and under the thought that they were safe with the corporation, news messages and T.V shows in many foreign countries were bought to show Caluichstan.

These ads showed several brand new mosgues, young men and women laughing in Islamic garb but free from services. Several soldiers smiling with peace signs in the capital as well as the oil fields and the Clandonia Prime. There was also shots of a synagoge and christian churches.

The message was:

There is oil here, lots of oil. Come and enjoy the riches of Caluichstan no matter what religion or society. Have fun and enjoy in a new nation.

The Corporation Secures another Reserve

http://media.militaryphotos.net/photos/albums/ratamacue01/bsp.sized.jpg


Was the headline as Corporation security forces moved out of their base to go 'recruit workers' with a little gentle force. The need for slaves was high, more slave armys would be needed in the battle fields of the Corporate Alliance. These poorly paid people would be brainwashed and given the finest drugs by the 8th Street Kings. Humvees, Strykers and other vehicles moved through the village going from village to village, tribe to tribe. It they didn't want to go a few shots to the head of their family would do it. The hovels were then blasted by cannon fire to elminate any potential weaklings that were deamed useless for work. It was standard Clandonian law to have workers who had reached their use to be vapourised, after all it would just be a drain on resources.

The Corporation was on the look out for more slaves...

News Report:

Today reports have come in that a small village was attacked by the corporation today in Caluichstan and that attack has resulted in 50 people being kidnapped and 8 people being killed in the attack. Research has found that nearly 600 people have been kidnapped by the Clandonia government so far with governmental approval. As well reports have come in that two villages were attacked last week with 5 people being killed bringing it up to 13 people killed by the corporation.

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

Government response:

We oppose the attacks on several villages that have killed 13 people. We demand that the corporation halts its actions and return the 600 Caluichstan citizens to the government and leave. If not we will declare war on the corporation.

OOC: To Aslantic Mountains and others, maybe you can invade the country for your own profit or to fight the corporation.

The Aslanic forces moved in on Caluichstan, preparing for a suprise attack and eventual war with Caluichstan and also a potential war with Clandonia Prime also. It all depended on which side CP fell.

The force they were up against was considerable, but so was the strength of the allied forces. It was clear that the allies would be helping both Caluichstan and CP in different ways, by either distracting the government from CPs actions or by eliminating the slavery threat.

Shock and awe, with a hint of aerial bombardment tidied up with some ground force action seemed to be on the menu today.

The clock hit zero, TAM had arrived. This was it.

In Atu citizens walked around and looked at the other people and the Clandonia Prime people and weaponry. The government itself wasn't too interested in defense.

On spotting the Atu people Corporation Security forces opened fire with an associated barrage of weaponry. Taking the young captive was the aim, kill the old and the children. This was now an official Corporation sanctioned aquisition, take control and eliminate threats to allow more slaves to be taken away. The Corporation laughed at the putile threats of the Caluichstanis, news of the invasion by The Aslanic Mountains was taken in carefully. Perhaps some sort of agreement could be made with them...

Algai Brushne looked tired at his staff at his Presidential Palace. They had let in a foreign nation with a corporation who had been enslaving their people and now reports were coming in that they had killed several people in several incidents. And now the 80,000 army might be going to war against this country because of the Corporations actions.

"We might have to go to war, prepare the forces."

Army bases near Atu were organized and army tanks, and army carriers were being prepared to head to Atu and the Corporations main area. Several fighter planes in the Caluichstan, ten plane airforce were being gassed and prepared to attack Clandonia construction rigs. All that the Corporation was unaware of.

Caluichstan army forces mobilized and the Caluichstan tanks began to engage on the streets of Atu against Clandonia Prime forces in the capital. Civilians continued to run away as several areas of the city were damaged by the fighting in the capital city. machine gun fire was fired at the opposing Clandonia Prime troops.

Secret message to foreign nations:

"Today the nation of Clandonia Prime has tried to enslave our people, and are preparing to kill us all. We ask for foreign nations to assist us in battle."

Corporation forces upon of the first ingagement with the Atu called in support, SU-30's took off from the Corporation airstrips on strike missions to deploy cluster and chemical munitionary on the Caluichstani military in an attempt to give time for the Corporation to bring in reinforments.

Calling in government support was a last resort but a fax was sent from the Senior Director the Military Wing to his friend in the Ministry of Defence. Just incase...

Back in Clandonia B-1 Lancer bombers of the Corporation were ordered to deliver tactical munitions to support the small security force. It was advised that another 4000 security forces were sent in on the C-5 Galaxy's. More armour was on the way and the promise of reinforcements stirred the troops on as they rushed to construct defences of their compounds and instalations. Protect the rigs was the priority, it was no point in wasting the black gold that they had come to get.

Several Caluichstan strike planes took off from the field at Atu and one was shot down and the other flew to the region that was under Clandonia Prime controlled and the four planes dropped ordanance nearly 300 lbs of ordanance onto the location targetting Clandonia Prime facilities, armaments and people.

In the capital of the Caluichstan bombs fell down on several locations in the city. One bomb hit a hospital killing four civilians and several troop carriers and tanks were destroyed in the bombing. Response to the planes were several batteries that fired Sam missiles at the Clandonia Prime planes while other Caluichstan troops engaged in attacks on Clandonia Prime locations in the city. With 10,000 troops alone in the city, the side of the Atu was winning in its battle.

OOC: Since the "allies" have seemingly collapsed into nothingness for now, i give you this change in direction. I shall post again tomorrow at some point, if I dont again tonight. Expect this or my next to be my last today.

Caluichstan, we would advise that you do not use numbers to your advantage. You clearly have not the strength of numbers to do so. Fight the long-term battle. If you go for broke, as is our experience, you could find yourself lagging later on. We will fight you and sort out our problems with your weaponry at a later date.

AMS Harlow.

-------

Long range bombers flew over Caluichstan delivering their payload over Clandonian positions. It was precision bombing in some cases, but reports filtered through of carpet bombing missing the target. It was hard to hit a ground target that could be easily moved, but it was the only way they could fight until troops were landed.

Reinforcement arrived by the hour. Now was make or break.

The bombing damage has killed 73 people, attacks were wide spread and the order was given to evacuate out the city as troops became cut off in the alleyways. Running out of ammo, they deployed laser pointers to signal the paths of destruction by bomber support dropping thermobarical cruise missiles.

The murders would pay, it was ordered for one of the small tactical nuclear devices to be activated incase the facilities were overun. If the situation deterioated any more then more munitions would be deployed across the entire nation.

The pipelines were ordered to be shut down as the bombs hit the refinerys, sending fireballs into the desert sky. Gunfire and the woosh of anti-air missiles fired by the security forces. The thud of 120mm cannon shells from M1 Abrams tanks into the direction of suspected Caluichstani trooplines.

Caluichstan units engaged in violence against the Clandonia Prime forces in the capital of Atu. Violence had left 209 soldiers and an additional 30 civilians in the violence against the Clandonia Prime forces. Machine gun fire raged in many parts of the city and it was reports that small units of Clandonia Prime people had been arrested and detained by Caluichstan troops.

Message to Clandonia Prime:

This violence has resulted because of the snatching and grabbing of Caluichstan citizens. We are not a province of your nation we are an independent nation and you should treat us as such. We propose a cease-fire and will allow Clandonia Prime troops and workers to remain in the oil fields as long as our national integrity, and snatch and grabbing does not continue.

We are in no position to act, the Corporation is not connected nor will we interfere with the actions of the Corporation on a global scale. I advise you now that you cease your action as the Corporation will destroy you with what ever means it has availiable to them this includes one of their principle revenue generations, nuclear weapons.

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

Corporation forces had been in firefights in the city, overwelmed some fought to the death. The news of arrests in the city's shocked many, it pursued them to fight harder and stronger. As missiles were deployed, the smoke streaked across the sky. Missiles were fired at the capital of Caluichstan, hopefully if the coordinates were correct raining down on the to government and financial districts.

It was time the government was intervening, it authorised if Clandonian citizens were kept against their will that the SAS would intervene and secure their release. This could potentially plunge Clandonia into a bitter war but the SAS's secretcy would be good.

Missiles hit the defence ministry killing five top Caluichstan generals and officers and other areas were hit causing some damage to the capital and killing about a dozen additional people and wounding over a hundred. Street battles continued as over 40 corporation soldiers had been captured and taken prisoner by Caluichstan troops.

Presidential Statement:

We are wwithdrawing from the capital of Atu to save the city more damage from the Clandonia government. We are going into exile and will fight Clandonia control from the mountainous north and from the south. We ask our troops to withdraw and join other troops out in the countryside to fight Clandonia prime. To the citizens of Atu, we will not abandon you.

---------

Units began to retreat from Atu and several tanks were destroyed by missiles and cluster bombing and several civilian houses were destroyed in the Clandonian fighting. Bullets continued to fly between the two sides as a small unit of 60 soldiers surrendered to the Clandonia government.

Battle, 315 soldiers, 63 civilians killed and 5,000 people had been wounded. Nearly 200 Caluichstan troops had been captured.

----------

Nearly 40 miles south of Atu, a small government division containing 300 troops attacked a small division of Corporation troops open firing with artillery shells and machine gun fire.

OOC: Your not fighting the government, your fighting the Corporation a private company that is a big player in Clandonia. If you were fighting the government you would be dead by now :=p


All captured enemy troops were authorised to be shot, the Corporation decided to shoot the officers only. The rest were put onto slave flights, as a lesson of their stupidity. Clandonian forces were authorised to leave the smaller distributions and focus on defending the larger more expensive ones. As artilery fire rained down, Corporation forces continued their fight with their MLRS units.

They would fight to the death or until larger scale reinforcements. Forces continued their bombing with the SU-30's hitting back at fleeing civillians with the mixed enemy soldiers. The Corporation did not take shit, this was an example of what they could do, the price was high 116 Corporation security forces were dead and nearly 400 injured. Put back to Clandonia on C-5 flights on seperate ones to the slaves who were tourted on the way back because of their crimes to the Corporations security forces.

[Presidential Complex, Greenmanbry]

"Wow..." The President just stared at the news broadcast on his plasma television screen. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, as well as the Secretary of Defense stood right behind him. Seated on the long office couch were members of the President's Council.

"So much for our intelligence sources... You managed to present detailed briefings on the terrorist activities... and yet you missed... this?"

The embarrassed Secretary of Defense kept staring at the carpeted floor in shame.

"Mr. President..." the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs broke the silence, "We have another problem. Several of our corporations had sent delegations to Caluichstan after that nation announced the discovery of some eight billion barrels of oil. They are stuck in Atu, the cap-"

"The capital," the President finished the sentence for him, "The capital! The same city the Caluichstani government just ABANDONED! The same city that has experienced bombardment from several parties!"

"That is correct, sir."

"We get our people home, General. We get our people home. I don't care what you have to do."

"Yessir. I recommend the immediate deployment of GMB forces to the area in an attempt to locate more than one thousand of our citizens who are currently in Caluichstan."

"So ordered."

===

== FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ==

The Transcendent Republic of Greenmanbry has been monitoring the situation in Caluichstan with great interest. We denounce in the strongest possible terms the thuggery of Corporation forces belonging to the nation of Clandonia Prime. Every action this organization has committed is a testament to their reprehensible agenda, an agenda that today saw the banishment of the government of a sovereign nation from its own capital.

The Republic is extremely concerned with the deteriorating security situation in Caluichstan. Given the recent discovery of oil in the country, a great number of our people have traveled there in an effort to promote bilateral ties between Greenmanbry and said nation. In addition to flouting international laws and the laws of nature, this vile organization is now in the process of killing the Republic's citizens in Caluichstan, which we regard as an act of terrorism.

We are fully prepared to counter the terror perpetrated by this well-financed street gang, and have thus decided to commit our Armed Forces to the task of extracting Greenmanbry's citizens from this war zone. Attacks on our soldiers will be met with the most dreadful of consequences.

===

[Hawar, Greenmanbry]

Never has the deck of the RBS Estral witnessed such frantic activity. Sailors aboard the Estral were yearning for some action. In the ship's bridge, Rear Admiral Pollock, the commander of Greenmanbry's Second Fleet, watched intently as the last of his orders came through. His Fleet had been roaming the waters south of Hawar for days now. Finally, his Leviathan-class Battleship would see action once more! The ship dominated the unusually rough seas with ease. Around him were dozens of escorts. Behind him were two Ocean-class Carriers. Already, they were launching their aircraft on routine patrols to rule the airspace above his seventy-ship Fleet. In the distance, several helicopter transports could be seen heading towards the Ocean Carriers. Ah, Pollock sighed in relief, The Hammerheads have come.. The Admiral looked at his wristwatch and muttered, "And right on time.. Brilliant.."

==

Corporation forces had fought through the night on into morning, fighting the Caluichstani military. Scores were dead, many of the wounded in serious conditions. The news of a The Aslanic Mountains bombing raids killing Clandonian citizens had shocked the government they issued a firm diplomatic communication.



Official Clandonian Response

Secure Communication to The Aslanic Mountains:

Your actions in Caluichstan have propted your nation to be targeted, if you do not cease your actions of killing Clandonian citizens then we will be forced to take military action agains your nation. We may dispatch aircraft to fly out the remaining Clandonian citizens. If you attack these then it will be an act of war.

This is your last warning.


More than 30 C-17's and 20 C-5's were on their way now to evacuate the remaining Corporation forces. The oil wells were rigged with tactical nukes to explode the deep shafts burning the oil, it was ordered now to capture as many slaves as possible before fleeing.

The Chairman watched the reports on Caluichstan and rung the Defense Sectatery. "Shit, hurry up!"

Bombers flew fast and low towards thier military targets, dropped their incedery bombs and returned to thier runways. Important targets were captured by BEAR (Bonzawaniiaen Elite Air Regiment) whilst the regulars started thier journey towards the oil and cities. Bonzawaniia had caught up with TAM (hopefully).

Unbeknown to the enemy, troops were offloaded onto the coast. Sergeant Jones stood signalling for tank drivers to roll out of the landing craft, as troops splashed through the shallow water, DPM Trousers rolled up leaving their water-proof boots to take the brunt of it. A landing craft left the shore to go and fetch the next load. A tank commander rolled past after disembarking, saluting Jones.

The landings were to be secret, and as far as recon flights could tell it remained that way. Infantry men split into their respective groups, putting on the correct equipment. They removed berets, and replaced them with combat helmets if they had not done so already. Some troops moved out so the force wasnt all in one place, a clear target for bombing or attack.

They had objectives already, and some completed platoons on the shore went in search of these. Driving the corporations out was the main objective. The navy, army and Aslanic Air Force were all present, the AAF flying from nearby air bases in other nations.

Some troops arrived by air, but they were few in number. They were the specialist troops who couldn't come with the AMS Harlow's fleet.

Morale was high. Support back home was great.

The Second Fleet was approaching the shores of Caluichstan. Aboard the RSC Greenmanbry, the elite units of the 7th Corps were already making final preparations to get on their inflatable landing craft. Major Nichol nodded in the direction of the ship's crew. Immediately, tens of boat engines filled the Super Carrier's enormous bay with a deafening sound. This was compounded by the deafening shrill that resulted from the planes that were getting ready to take off from the carrier's massive deck.

"Firefly 1, clear off the deck. Banking left.

And with that, ground attack planes began heading for Caluichstan's coast to ensure a safe landing area for the elite units and, eventually, the rest of the Hammerheads. The Leviathan's main guns were focused on the shore. Admiral Pollock still felt uneasy. If any serious attack would cripple us, he thought to himself, it would come from the skies. All anti-air measures were operating, all sailors were manning their battlestations, and many E-18s were above the Second Fleet, ready to respond to any attack from the air.

And, at 28,000 feet, unmarked E-130 transports were waiting for clearance from the Second Fleet to paradrop their shock troopers. This would hopefully come as soon as the elite units had firmly established a beach-head in Caluichstan.

Many of the infantry were paradropped into Caluichstan in safe places near thier targets, but the rest landed on beaches with tanks and other vechiles. Fortifacations were being set up at the strategic positons, such as higher ground, infastruture and whatever oil that was already taken. Bombers contied thier runs on military targets, wearing enmy numbers and morale down. BEAR units wear sent to search for the Caluichstani goverment in the mountains, whilst BMI operatives were sent to eliminate generals and important polotical figures who had not gone into hiding.

The Caluichstani goverment was protrayed as cowards hiding from the mighty Bonzawaniiaen military, but many people in New Bonzawaniia saw a greedy goverment looking for oil. They had seen enough violence in the past month, and now they had been plunged into a war

To the Clandonian Corporation:

Due to your inhumane actions in the nation of Caluichstan the Empire has now banned all of your imports to all of our provinces and has frozen all of your assets in our nation and will sell all of your property in the Empire. As well, we will not unfreeze your assets or grant you reparation unless if you withdraw from Caluichstan and beg the forgiveness of its people for your actions.

Signed,
Emperor Olaf the Great of the Scandinvans, High King of the Nine Kingdoms, King of the Western Hills, Master of the Northern Dales, etc.

It was clear that if a nation didnt want civilians killed accidentally in war, they shouldnt allow corporations to use force in securing foreign posessions. The Aslanic soldiers went on with the job in hand, forces being sent to deal with the situation in some cities and to organise the defence of others. This was second priority, second to sercuring oil fields not yet captured and to fight for ones that had.

Black smoke covered the horizon as some oil fields burnt. The troops knew they were seeing Sovereigns [Note: Aslanic currency is the Sovereign] fly away. RAPTOR aircraft took pictures from high altitude of oil fields, as already the first to be captured on film were beginning to be captured on the ground. The troops attacked from two directions in most cases, using heavy weapons to pin down the enemy as soldiers advanced to secure positions.

Suddenly the weapons fell silent, and one last bullet hurtled over the Cladonian Corporations troops. After this, it was hoped some of the enemy would be brave enough to show any body parts. A small force of snipers awaited such a situation, and soon enough a couple of bullets fired long distance, before an assortment of flash bangs and smoke grenades filled the area ahead. The troops ran forward to secure the target, weapons readied.

No casualties had occured up to this point. Now the Aslanic troops would find out how strong the opposition is, or how pitiful they really were.

Ultimation to The Aslanic Mountains


This is your final warning, cease your hostile actions against Clandonian assets or you will challenge the Empire into this fight. If you dont not follow there will be several fleets preparing to assault your nation.

To the Clandonian Corporation:
New Bonzawaniia condems the Clandonian Corporation's use of slavery and is removing any establishments you own in Bonzawaniia and will replace them with buildings owned by the goverment/council. We are also banning all imports to Bonzawaniia.

New Bonzawaniiaen forgien Sectatery

Colonel Stuart had been searching for the Caluichstani goverment in the mountians for four days and so far all they had found in the caves they were searching were bats and dampness. He hoped that the ariel and satilite search was faring better.

They wern't.

Bonzawaniiaen troops contiued fighting for the oil fields, several had been taken already. A black market had started among the army shipping barrels of oil back home. Soldiers found guilty of this crime were dishounerably discharged and fine the cost of the oil they had sold and 'owned' although the goverment sponsered mafia managed to sneak oil out still.

Under a third of Bonzawaniiaen forces in Caluichstan were fighting in away from oil, as oil was, of course, the main priority. Most cities were shelled and bombed.

Artillery had been set up and had begun to shell enemy postions and roads in Caluichstani held territory, which added to the destruction caused by bombing.
