Since the war thread itself is going to be closed to just AMF and myself, everyone else can throw their diplomatic crap and news reports and whatnot in this thread. I'll get the link to the main war thread up in here once AMF posts it, should be momentarily. Have fun.

Oh, one more thing: THIS IS NOT AN OOC THREAD, KEEP IT IC.

AUTOMAGFREEK HORDES TO FIGHT DOOMANI SAVAGES IN FASCIST CONFLICT

By Trander Utah

Earlier this week, that bloody tyrant, Damien Dreadfire, who has ruled the unfortunates of AutoMagFreek with an iron fist that drips with the blood of innocent men, women and children, decided to crawl out of whichever isolationist hole he had been hiding in, and demanded that the act of slavery become illegal throughout the world. The civilized world, so used by now to Dreadfire hiding away in his nation, scared away by the righteous forces of the Sovereign League, was understandably by turns astonished and bemused by this self-righteous and pompous statement. Coming from a man who claims to have made a deal with a demon and been reborn after death, and who obviously has serious mental-health issues when this claim is viewed, this statement is down-right laughable.

Reactions to it have, of course, varied. Whilst our own Monarch, King Alexander I (May the Gods and Prophets worship the very ground upon which he treads) has yet to release a statement concerning the matter - quite obviously a measured ploy to worry Dreadfire whilst he decides the correct manner in which to deal with such filth - other nations have released public statements on the matter. There are of course those nations, righteous and sanctimonious that have only the good of the world on their minds, that have condemned such a pompous and naive declaration. The glorious nation state of Praetonia declared that such an act, whilst excellent in principle, is worrying when coming from the mouth of such a bloody tyrant as Dreadfire himself. Other nations, some in the Sovereign League, have made statements to the same effect as this.

Then, of course, there are those sycophantic and vulture-like nations that always support Dreadfire and his mentally-unstable naivety whatever it is that spews from his vile and rancid mouth. Nations such as Pantera and The Charr, instantly released statements supporting Dreadfire's bout of unstable sanity, as all those living in the civilized world knew would inevitably occur. Perhaps, one long and distant day many decades from now, it may be that these sycophants discover a stockpile of back-bone and dare to disagree with Dreadfire and his mentally-unstable rants; alas, however, today is no such day, and these vultures have pledged their full support to the naive crusade of a mental incompetent.

Finally, once we wade through the statements of the unknown and tiny countries who always make statements that no-one ever listens to nor cares about, we get to the piece-de-resistance of this entire ludicrous situation - the nation of Doomingsland. Those stout and sensible souls who follow my editorials will know of my constant warnings about these religious, inbred fanatics, who claim that glory can be found in the massacre of innocent children; many a time, as a reporter on distant battlefields, I have seen Doomani soldiers roast children over an open fire, singing in tune to the child's agonising death calls. Now, this nation of barbarians and savages has decided that it will stand up to the mental instability of Damien Dreadfire and 'defend' the right to enslave their fellow human beings. Even now, they are mobilising their savage hordes, clubs in hand, to fight the hideous cyborgs under the command of that wretch, Dreadfire.

In this man's opinion, as lowly and unbiased as it is, it would be best if both of these hideous and barbarian nations destroy each other in the righteous flames of war. It is my hope that the waves of the seas around Doomani and AMF become red with the diseased blood of these incompetent savages, flaming hulks of their poorly-designed ships sinking around them as they call for whatever vile creations birthed them. If the battle makes it to land, perhaps then the streets and valleys, the rivers and lakes, will serve to quench the savage blood-lust of these two barbarian nations. And if one of these vile and barbarous nations does emerge victorious, swift and righteous action should be taken against them; I am not often a proponent of the use of weapons of mass destruction, but surely God and the spirits of the billions of innocent souls killed by these two countries would cry out with joy as AMF or Doomingsland is cleansed by the righteous fires of thousands of nuclear weapons, creating a land that would become a memorial to the crimes against humanity that these nations have committed.

May The People Be Victorious!

Selke City is possibly the best place for a nation's capital, especially in the early days of kill or be killed, solely because it's ringed with mountains. With the development of controlled explosives, it later became possible to blast into the mountains and even to build inside of them; the McPsychovillian Armed Forces Grand Headquarters is located inside Mount Svatos, for instance, and it's possible to completely lock off the inside of the mountain to any invaders by forcing them into a bottleneck. They do still have to communicate using the more archaic system of underground wires, but this is a small price to pay in reality for complete security.

The Grand Headquarters is where everything involving the Armed Forces goes on, all across the world. Thanks to the Roudland-developed Archer communications system, it's possible to receive all the communications from the leaders of the Ten Units and be updated on the status of conflicts as they occur. At the moment, things are relatively quiet - a small part of the the Ninth Unit is involved in a conflict near Llanoran, and it's likely that most of the Vetakan-based forces will be drawn into it soon - and so when the Freekish army moved on Doomingsland, it caused waves.

After their public siding with the Anti-Slavery Alliance, the armies of Automagfreek have been monitored for the simple reason that Supreme Commander Sundin had pledged their alliance with the Freekish armies. So, if they moved were involved in a conflict, the chances were decent that McPsychoville would be called in to help out. In reply to his pledge, the decision was made to turn all available satellites to view how the Doomani-Freekish conflict panned out. At the moment, it was fairly quiet, the hostilities not yet beginning. Things were surely to change.

"So this is it eh?"

"Yeah...this'll end the argument once and for all." The masked man took a long drag on his cigarette. "Two big shots who always seem to run thier mouth. I mean, I know Automagfreek, I know thier kind of people. I lived in Green Moon and the Horde of Doom before I moved here. He's been around for awhile."

"Yes he has. But I have to wonder....what will become of the slave using nations after this mess?"

"Well...I imagine thier economies will go bankrupt, due to such a loss."

The two men became silent, sipping thier moonshine at the cafe.

"Hmm...I guess there would be alot of money in keeping the slave trade alive then..."

"Yeah...but any nation caught selling would be in deep shit."

"What if it wasn't a nation? What if it was a...like a gang or mafia?"

"What like the Black Rogues or whatever?"

"No...something more Zambi in nature...what was that new cult called?"

"Uh let me think....oh yeah! 'United Chaos and Anarchy' or something like that."

"Hmmm...you and I know some military men out of a job since the Revolution. Suppose we met up with this 'United Chaos and Anarchy.' Suppose we offer to help them expand...in the slave trade?"

"Big ideas for an accountant. Lets talk about it after work."

WRESTLERS, CATHOLICS GO TO WAR
Miana Register-Times, Page 1
_________
This week, the former-pro-wrestler Damien Dreadfire declared an out-right Crusade against slavery, basking in his self-righteous platitudes as he demanded all nations bow to his will. His nation of Automagfreek has been bizarrely switching between isolationism and interventionism for some time - appearing to make a bold public statement, and then disappearing again. Much of the First World ignores these random statements, knowing them to be little more than pomp and platitude, but this time, Dreadfire actually appears to be doing something.

Dreadfire is one of the most brutal dictators in the history of mankind, if not one of the most mentally unstable. He claims to have died and been resurrected by a daemon, which likely gave him his mental instability as well as his inability to wear a shirt. Damien Dreadfire also may have taken up drinking at some point, as he appears to have a large beer gut along with his other problems. Why do the people of Automagfreek tolerate this leadership? Mental illness does not a good leader make, and if Dreadfire steadfastly refuses to wear a shirt, he should at least work out. Nobody wants to see that.

Dreadfire as leader of Automagfreek appears to be, at best, a one-trick pony. A brief list of his accomplishments include: The massacre in Kahanistan, the massacre of Kravonika, the massacre of Fascist White States, and getting thrashed by Hogsweatian and Praetonian forces in "Operation: Hellfire". Sometimes it seems that the only thing Dreadfire knows how to do is massacre people, so perhaps it is a stress reliever for him.

This is one of those rare appearances from Automagfreek, however, when they seem to be carrying through on their threats. Dreadfire today declared war on the Imperium Doomanum, one of the largest slaving nations on Earth. Along with his promise for justice for all enslaved, he claims that he wishes to massacre every man, woman, and child in slaver nations. These two goals seem to be mutually exclusive, after all, as slaves do count as men, women, and children. Perhaps it is the beer that is getting to Dreadfire's mind, and he wishes to put the corpses of Doomani slaves on the Doomani throne.

Emperor Paulus I has yet to comment on the conflict, although it is widely believed that he favours the Doomani, due to his relation to Caesar Maximus of Doomingsland. There is a convoluted family tree connecting the royal families of Questaria, Generia, Praetonia, Whyatica, Doomanum, and Clandonia. Researchers working for the Times-Register attempted to trace exactly how Emperor Paulus is connected to Caesar Maximus, but after thirty-six hours of effort and four hundred liters of Mountain Dew, they gave up. All that is known is that they are vaguely related, which is enough for this paper.

"...and in other news the citzens of Zackaroth remained split over the about to begin war between AutomagFreek and Doomingsland. One side supports AMF and its bout to end slavery while the other side claims that AMF is not doing this to protect the human rights but rather to to expand its empire and show the world that AMF is still around. Still others claim that Doomingsland itself is not innocent and that this a war between two big and insane states that have finally butted heads.

The former HIgh Leader, Aimless von Strangaild, spoke out today condeming his son and the goverment for taking sides and willingness to give aid to Automagfreek. He also stated that he believes Dreadfire to be a honorary warrior but insane and not fit at all to run a goverment. There has been no word from the current High leader himself yet. In other news sciencetist confirm....'"

No Fucking Comment
Article By Jomomba Territorius, writing for Contemporary News

Let's get one thing straight. AMF started this whole mess. Why would a nation that practices slavery extensively ever declare slavery immoral? Every single Freekish citizen that is not named Damien Dreadfire is a slave, and Damien Dreadfire himself is a slave to the bottle of Jack glued to his hand. And thus, as hypocrites, Damien Dreadfire and his nation of lobotomized drones marches off to war once more.

On the other side we have a bunch of guys that enjoy having sex with camels. I know that Doomingsland is a desert, but would you PLEASE STOP TAPING THOSE SEX ACTS WITH YOUR DRAFT ANIMALS AND HOUSEPETS!!!!!! HALF THE FUCKING POPUPS ON MY LAPTOP ARE OF HAIRY DOOMISH MEN HUMPING CAMELS!!! Seriously, please, stop that, and stop your inbreeding. And to think, the Doomish government spends billions of dollars funding propaganda against homosexuals...

Anyway, this war promises to have blood. Lots and lots of blood. Otherwise, it'll be a pretty boring war. Both sides have a history of being completely and utterly incapable of any strategy other than going around, torturing people by shoving cattle prods up their anal orifices while listening to death metal. And it's weak death metal too, the sort of pop-punk bullshit that limp-wristed fags like Sentinels and Legionaries listen to.

If I had to bet on the outcome of this war, I would say that the Doomish would win. Their superior technology and comprehension of basic tactics will allow them to win out over the mindless hordes and illiterate peasants fielded by Dreadfire. But I am an optimist. I have high hopes that both sides will destroy each other in the coming conflict, sparing the rest of the world from the mentally retarded offspring of their respective "societies".

By the way Mr. Dreadfire, you could really stand to lose a few pounds, you fucking fatass. Look at you, you're a fucking disgrace to humanity; a mentally ill ex-professional wrestler trying to compensate for his small penis and still pining for his glory days in the ring (where, according to match records, you were mediocre at best). All your excursions so far have proven only one thing: You're stupid. No, no, no, not just stupid, you're a fucking imbecile Mr. Dreadfire, somebody who only understands the sword and whip.

Imperator Maximus on the other hand is.... Ok, he's not much better either, but at least he can read. But does literacy mean that Maximus is a good person? Umm.... hell no. Maximus is every bit a cruel and stupid brute as Damien Dreadfire. Both parties "roast children over an open fire"(1) among other atrocities. Maximus' vice is that he exploits the trust and faith of his constituents. Maximus is slimy enough to claim that his pathetic god supports him and his endeavors. Now, anybody that has read my previous articles knows that I am not a Christian, but if I were, I would be ashamed to be one, especially with scum like Maximus walking the Earth. Maximus invokes the name of the Cross, because his actions cannot be justified in the name of Reason or Intelligent Thought.

And there you have it. A war between a pair of unenlightened despots both of whom are hypocrites.

By the way Mr. Dreadfire. You look really GAY in those pants.

- WAR IMMINENT BETWEEN DOOMINGSLAND AND AUTOMAGFREEK -
- DIRECTSTATE SAYS 'MILLIONS WILL DIE' -
- EXPERTS DISAGREE WITH OPTIMISTIC ESTIMATE -
by Foreign Correspondent Mashira Takahiro

[Sydney] - Tensions between the Excessively Armed Empire of Automagfreek and the Holy Empire of Doomingsland will "almost certainly lead to war", according to a statement today by Director Hitomi Mikazawa of the Department of Foreign Affairs.

As reported earlier this week by the IINT, Lord Dreadfire's demand to the international community for an end to the slave trade was met with mixed reactions. Although a majority of countries applauded the move as a worthy gesture of humanitarianism from the Freekish leader, several states denounced Dreadfire's message as hypocritical and others announced a policy of non-compliance.

Caesar Maximus II of the Holy Empire issued a communique that was particularly hostile to Dreadfire, breaking many standards of diplomatic decorum with repeated personal attacks and appeals to higher deities.

Sources inside the government say that the Excessively Armed Empire of Automagfreek will not tolerate Doomani resistance to the ultimatum, and a high-level aide in the Tyrandis National Intelligence Agency reports that mobilization of the Freekish Sentinel legions is already underway. It is believed that escalation to armed conflict is "inevitable", according to Hitomi Mikazawa's statement today.

Speaking on behalf of the government of the Lady Autocrat, Mikazawa declared that "the Militaristic Federation of Tyrandis is exceptionally concerned" with the Doomani-Freekish conflict, and stated that "millions of lives may perish" as a result of the upcoming war. She also stated that "Tyrandis will not entangle itself in the coming conflict," noting that both belligerents are allied to the Federation. Experts believe that this message will establish the neutrality of Tyrandis.

DIRECTSTATE Mikazawa further declared that "The Federation believes that strategic escalation in this war is extremely unlikely," in an attempt to alleviate fears that the enormous nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons stockpiles both Automagfreek and Doomingsland are known to possess could lead to full WMD exchange. Finally, she concluded her statement by calling for an immediate, bilateral halt of mobilization and peace talks between the two intractable foes to begin. Lady Autocrat Kurumi Hamazaki personally offered the Federation as a potential location for these negotiations.

However, Jun Nariyamo (ret. Col, TIAF), an analyst at TOKNO Corporation, disagreed with the DIRECTSTATE's assertion that the use of WMD will not occur. 'I think we're in for a real doozy of a massacre to be honest. Both sides are crazed zealots obsessed with victory at any cost. The leadership is highly unbalanced, and I don't think Lord Dreadfire or Caesar Maximus will hesitate for a second to push the button, even if it means the end of the human race through nuclear winter.'

Doomingsland and Automagfreek go to war

From the New Clanon City Times
Front Page

After the dictatorship of Automagfreek denouced slavery in a move that was ridiculed by the Clandonian and Sovereign League member governments. Automagfreeks topless leader Lord Dreadfire ordered a declaration of war on the The Holy Empire of Doomingsland which is connected to the Clandonian Royal Family after the marriage of Princess Sofia and Price Cassius Alexius Doomanus. This latest act of violence by Automagfreek has sparked a fierce debate as the Sovereign League condemned the declaration by Lord Dreadfire who planned to destroy entire nations and kill their populations just because a company traded slaves.

Clandonian government and Crown officials declined to comment on the matter of sending Clandonian forces in support of Doomingsland. Several thousand Clandonian Catholic pro-Doomani supporters have begun preparing to travel to Doomingsland to fight Automagfreek as part of their duty. The Foreign Office has issued no travel advice with the government warning of Clandonian nationals serving in foreign military forces to be aware that they outside the boundaries of Crown protection. It has been estimated by the Clandonian Catholic Church that forty thousand Clandonian's are preparing to take flights to Doomingsland to form volunteer battalions or take their skills to the relevant areas of the Doomani armed forces. One Clandonian person on a flight to Doomingsland at New Kirkland airport said to the Times reporter that he was looking forward to defending Clandonia and protect Her Royal Highness Princess Sofia from Freekish aggression. The lines of Clandonian's queuing at airport check ins armed with various assortments of weaponry and military gear has not been seen before since the war against the elves.

The Media of the People

METZUDA (AP) - Foreign Minister Rachel Levitt released today a statement (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=12467997&postcount=109) supporting the move (though opposing the method) by Freekish dictator Damien Dreadfire to eradicate slavery from Doomingsland.

Doomingsland, known to natives as the Imperium Doomanum, invaded and occupied Kahanistan's lands in the Middle East, and an estimated three billion citizens were killed, enslaved, or continue to live under Doomani tyranny.

Despite this, Levitt has offered asylum to any Doomani civilian who arrives in Kahanistan's Havenic lands. "Nobody deserves to die on a stake for being a citizen of a nation at war," she said. "Although I personally find it unlikely that many Doomani will accept my nation's offer." The same offer has also been extended to Strator following Freekish threats against that nation for slavery.

Doomani and Stratorian citizens who do come to Kahanistan will have to give up any slaves they possess, said slaves to receive equal refugee status with their former oppressors, as slavery is illegal in Kahanistan. Political analysts believe that the only Doomani to come to Kahanistan will be the poor and desperate seeking a minimum wage, as none exists in the Absolute Capitalist state.

While Kahanistan's economy still struggles with the damage and displacement of the Doomani invasion, foreign investment and tourism to the eastern beach resort city of New Sodom have given the economy a new lease on life. Interior Minister Antonio Valera has stated that "with much unskilled labor coming into Kahanistan, even if we do have to pay them four shekels an hour (approximately $7.30), we will be able to repair our economy and they would get new homes, that, while spartan, will likely be superior to any that exist in the slums of a Doomani city."

CAESAR AND DREADFIRE DECLARE WAR
Slavery issue to be decided by force

Special Article by: Lord Regent Seth Jamaane

Today, news came to the attention of the Imperium that represents a potent reminder for us all of what happens when madmen take a throne. In the Succession Wars we have seen the chaos that the faithful may endure; in the insanity of Damien Dreadfire, we see now the meaningless sound and fury of tinpot dictators.

The Intelligence Division possesses the direct mandate of the Divine One to keep the secrets of the nation. However, the Imperium does not hide from its people, and Sacred Emperor Lucifer, all praise to him, has commanded me personally to speak to you, those of the true faith.

The strutting chieftains and barbarians of the Freekish Empire have declared war against the Imperium Doomanum, a pillar of strength (though, regretfully, misguidedly trusting in a single, false god) as well as a nation we understand well, a nation we have fought and triumphed alongside. But this is a new war; Dreadfire is not an effeminate democratist such as even now are fanning themselves in their perfumed sitting rooms, over the seas in Haven; rather, he is a raving, slavering hound of a man, whose brains are dwarfed by his arrogance.

But wolves do not fear a hound. Such is the resolve of the Doomani, who gird themselves manfully and take up the panoply of war. We trust our brothers, and send them the blessing of the True Gods, knowing that with that blessing they shall conquer. Who can withstand those who fight with true honor? Who of the infidels does not fear justice? Not Dreadfire! From on high he trembles; his fear has made him weak, has made him fat and lazy. He shouts from his palaces, using Minister Hartman as his mouthpiece, and hopes that those he needles do not lose patience at last. In fear he has made this foolish mistake, and fear shall hold him prisoner while the Doomani calmly nail him to the cross. They are artists of victory, and even now they lay the first strokes upon the canvas.

The Legions, however, will not move. No, dear citizens, we do not march alongside our brothers this time. Why? An excellent question! He who says we do not march from fear is not to be trusted, and may even be an infidel agent...but he who rather says we do not fear for the Doomani speaks the truth. Our brothers are perfectly capable of handling the twisted hordes of Automagfreek by themselves, and we meanwhile have war upon the horizon elsewhere: in Kahanistan, in Borneria...no, the Imperium knows that Caesar needs no help (in fact, Caesar Maximus himself requested we remain neutral, that Doomanum may have the honor of this victory) and thus we do not offer it. So watch, citizens, through the eyes of the Imperium, as the armies of the mighty meet the hordes of the craven king, Dreadfire.

The Brydog First Party has praised AMF as the defender of the free. The current government has announce that the war will be monitored but the Brydog government will not take any part in the war.

The Crusader States at War?

We all knew it would happen sooner or later: a Doomish-Freekish war; a brawl between Dreadfire's horde and Maximus's fanatical legions. The only questions up until this point have been when the war would be declared and what would precipitate it. We now have answers to both.

Earlier this week in a move that jostled this editor's nether regions with something between disbelief and mirth the world's front-running bald megolomaniac, the Freekish Damian Dreadfire, officially declared the slave trade "over." As it was, his Majesty, Maximus, the Emperor of Doomingsland (who has in this country long been suspected of mental illness based on his extreme religious devotion bordering on "Baptist") was unwilling to accept the end with a bit of grief and nostalgia, and instead replied to the good freekish lord with a royal "fuck you."

As it stands, we Generians are at least in for a good show. The Doomish and Freekish armies are of roughly equivalent strength and skill, and while our southern neighbors have certainly seen more action in the past few years than their opponents, I expect everything but a quick end and a decisive victory for either side.

In fact, I believe the conflict will alter very little on the larger world stage, as with most recent conflicts between superpowers. The Doomish will, if they're lucky, learn a thing or two about the dangers of excessive zeal, while the Freeks will hopefully suffer a sufficient blow to their military might to render them impotent for a few years, thus leaving the rest of the world well enough alone. Chances are, though, that both empires will continue on after the war as they have for years, and the best we can hope for is that this conflict will drag on for as long as possible. Maybe in the end there won't be enough of either nation left to be worth worrying about and we can all go on about our business.

Doomingsland-Automagfreek War: Stop The Insanity!
Editorial, page 37

Over the past week our front page has been full of reports of the Doomani-Freekish situation, nicknamed the "Conflict of the Year" by some waggish journalist. I'm going to scale that down further: I declare this Conflict of the Week. Seriously, two of the world's stereotypical evil dictatorships -- whose leaders seem to have read too many of those post-apocalyptic dystopian novels -- going off to fight it out among themselves... pardon us Military Command people over at Saugeen if we're not shitting ourselves.

Let's have a quick recap. First off, 'Supreme Warlord' Damien Dreadfire of Automagfreek issued a declaration to the world akin to "End world slavery, or I'll destroy all who participate in it!" Normally such declarations are issued by the insane leaders of nations of five million or less, with militaries comparable to the standing militia of Outside Island. No-one listens to them, and any actual attempts at military action are quickly repulsed. On occasions the nation is turned into plate glass. But since this was the Excessively Armed Empire, and Dreadfire the insane leader of a nation of eight billion or more, people suddenly started to listen.

So in the one corner we have Damien Dreadfire, seven feet tall, built like his little super-soldiers (which he created in his image after all), come back from the dead, and talks to Gods. He apparently thinks he's invincible. And now, in the other corner, we have Maximus III Doomanus, also pretty close to seven feet tall, built like he expects his little super-soldiers, and while he hasn't come back from the dead at very least, he still talks to God. He also apparently thinks he's invincible.

You can see where this is going. Their 'diplomatic' dickwaving match will undoubtedly make one or another angry enough to attack. Then there will be a lot of blood, during which, hopefully, the Sentinels and the half-crazed brainwashed Doomani religious fanatics will end up killing each other, leaving the world a more peaceful place.

At any rate, I'll posture that Doomingsland's ridiculous terrain advantages over Automagfreek's ridiculously overinflated soldiers and equipment will lead to its eventual victory -- hell, it has its own desertified continent, not to mention that just about every single animal in the place feeds upon human flesh. You wonder what they keep as pets. Not that it'll mean much; the Doomies will sustain heavy losses dealing with the Freeks. Hell, they even lost a whole city while under attack from anarchist rabble.

I also note that the international news media, especially in the Sovereign League and former APOC, has descended upon this like vultures; I refer to those articles by Trander Utah, Jamie Strall, Jomomba Territorius, 'Lord Regent' Seth Jamaane and whichever scion of Clandonia's literate, estimated to have climbed all the way up to fourteen per cent of the population, in which the author spends more time ridiculing Damien Dreadfire's appearance and dress habits than actually commenting on the situation. I'd expect more professionalism especially from the Miana Register-Times in putting what is obviously a thinly disguised editorial among front-page news; on the other hand, the New Clanon City Times quite invariably spews nothing more or less than what its government wishes it to spew (likely due to the quality of Clandonian "education", in which I suspect subliminal messages run "The government is always right!"), whereas anything originating within Kregaia's borders is completely state-run anyway as befits a fascist nation.

Let us hope only that this war shall destroy both the Doomani and Freekish states, and perhaps restore some sanity to the world. A sanity that seems to reside, for now, only within the borders of a select few of Haven's number.

Doomingsland and Automagfreek on colliding course

It all began then Freekish dictator Damien Dreadfire declared slave trading over and promised to crush all slavetraders who do not comply in a week.

Several importnant countries immediately promised support to Dreadfire including: Pantera, Charr, Southeast Asia, McPsychoville, Aequatio and Haraki. Those countries openly supported Automagfreek despite the fact that Damien Dreadfire is well know mass-murderer and genocidial maniac. Also, then talking about slaves we should not forget that AMF uses soldiers, usually known as “sentinels”, that have about as much free will as average potato in hand of Olmedrecan farmer. So to allies of AMF I would say: “tell me who your friends are, and I tell you who you yourselfly are.”

Many other countries had some more common sense and stayed neutral and criticzed dictator of AMF for hypocrisy and breaking national sovereignity. This group of nations included Vrak, Whyatica, Olmedreca, Hotdogs2, Clandonia Prime, Zukariaa and also Sovereign League.

Finally there were nations that openly opposed dictator of AMF. Most of those nations were extremely small and unimportnant, with only Strator having some international fame. But there was one major slavetrading power that openly confronted AMF. Caesar Maximus III of the Imperium Doomanum openly challenged Dreadfire in extremely provocative statement, personally insulting insane AMF dictator.

This conflict is not so much conflict of nations then conflict of two mad dictators. Damien the Destroyer, the Supreme Warlord of AMF and Maximus III, Caesar of the Imperium Doomanum are both totally unfit to rule their countries. Maximus III is extremely fanatical Christian believing that God is behind him, Damien the Destroyer is well known mass-murderer who was resurrected by demon or atleast he himselfly believes so. Those two mentally unstable dictators should be in hospital instead of ruling billions of people. Now they have confronted each other and result is going to be extremely bloody, especially as both dictators consider human life extremely cheap.

Both empires have already started preparations for war. Praetonia has promised to lease two Iron Duke class supercapital ships to Doomingsland.

Hailia - Diplomacy is now apparently a way of the past. With a Doomani-Freekish conflict of interest to be decided by force, once again the world stares down the barrel of world war and undoubtedly many nations will be caught in the crossfire of this war; millions of people will be killed, hundreds of nations will be lost, and there will be an uncountable destruction toll.

In one corner of this conflict, we have the fearsome nation of Automagfreek, and its leader Damien Dreadfire, declaring slavery an immoral practice. As a result of this declaration Dreadfire has started a personal crusade against slavery and all who practice it. This will be a crusade in the truest sense of the word because we will see many people killed, many cities burnt to the ground, and many things will be plundered and destroyed.

In the other corner of this conflict, we have Doomingsland, another equally fearsome nation, giving the proverbial finger to Dreadfire’s decree and daring Dreadfire to make good on his promise of destruction. The widespread and what seems to be the largest use of slavery by the Doomani people makes Doomingsland public enemy number one to the anti-slavery cause. However, Doomingsland should not be underestimated even though the chips look stacked against them.

In this ever-growing conflict, sides are being drawn quickly as other nations, beside the two listed above, either stand behind the use slavery or stand behind this new anti-slavery crusade. There are now questions circulating amongst the citizens in the Imperial Republic on what the Killian government, or more specifically, President Revello will do about this conflict. Even more important that what he will do, is the question of whether or not HailandKill will be entering this war, aggressively or defensively.

As of right now the White House has made no comment on the situation outside of what President Revello has said on the topic already, which is:

“The selling or using of rational, living, human beings is not tolerated in this country as a trade nor a practice. Although we are a staunchly capitalist nation, selling and trading human beings like objects is where we draw the line. This nation and its peoples stand behind the eradication of slavery via diplomacy or force.

We will not be taking direct action in this cause at the moment. However, certain military ground and naval units’ alert status will be raised. Also, the Killian national Defense Condition will be raised one level, from two to three. We are taking both measures solely as a precaution in case we are aggressed upon. If we are aggressed upon we can respond with appropriate force. We cannot take chances in the modern world, especially in these times.

The Killian people responded well to the president’s message, though some are questioning whether or not activating units alert status is truly for defensive, peaceful purposes. We will just have to see what happens with this growing conflict, and also how The Imperial Republic will respond to it.

Battle of the Titans. Are you Kidding me?!

written by Johan Kitridge

Now if you haven't heard about what's going on in the news then shame on you. Here's a breif rundown of the week's events;

1> The nation of Automagfreek led by Damien Dreadfire declares slavery, worldwide as over and subsequently declares war on anyone who disagrees.

2> A number of small nations defy this brazen statement and a larger number support it (our government says it's neutral on the issue thank God).

3> However, the largest of these dissidents, Doomingsland has taken up AMF on its word.

What does this mean ladies and gentlemen? War people. Another bloody war. As if we haven't had enough of it already and this is no small backyard either. This has potential to literally destroy any nation caught in the cross fire. And beleive me there will be unfortunate countries that will be turned into battlefields. But I digress. There's always been wars here on Earth. Between he war of the Corporate Alliance and GASN, and then the battles fought against EVIL there's never been a time when there weren't reports of war on the 5 o'clock news. Well this is different people. A lot different. This is a conflict between two BIG players and I think our government is smart to sit back and watch for now. But aside from all that here's what really gets me. It's Damien Dreadfire. Hell it's his nation altogether that just beats me unconscience with its dumbness. Of all nations AMF declares the slave trade over? I thought some one put some shrooms in my salad when I first read that. And then went through twenty other sources to confirm it. The country most notorious for waging what were probably the bloodiest wars ever fought on Earth goes and does something like this. It just doesn't make a lick of sense. Here you have a world power led by a blood thirsty autocrat who makes Hitler and Stalin look like characters from a toddler's show, who led a campaign with the Kraven Corporation into Kahanistan killing millions upon millions upon millions of innocent people and then subsequently bringing Kraven to its knees, all the while enslaving its entire population with propaganda and an iron fist to the war effort; go ahead and declare slavery over. Hah. Well good luck because they are going against the most notorious slavers in the world. Not just that but extremely fanatical religious fascists who's legions are fed propaganda and given a gun practically when they get out the womb.

I think I share the sentiment of most reporters on this issue when I say I hope the two destroy eachother out. Like some sort of matter anti-matter thing. Whatever happens I just hope we don't get involved in it.

Sovereign League Rhetoric Prompts National Demonstrations

For the first time since the rule of President Kaye, the streets of Automagfreek are filled with the angry cries of a populace wronged, and this time the Freekish government is not to blame. As we have reported before, the continuing flow of rhetoric coming from the offices of the Sovereign League have had little effect on the population, but recent statements issued by several of their signatories have the nation up in arms.

After days of sustained allegations that all Freekish citizens are "slaves" under our Supreme Warlord Damien Dreadfire, demonstrations erupted against Praetonia and their Sovereign League lackeys. Possibly millions have taken to the streets in every major city, chanting "Death to Praetonia", "Death to the Sovereign League", and other such sayings. Effigies of the Praetonian King were set ablaze, while flags of the Crown Commonwealth and Sovereign League were also torched and trampled upon.

When asked why they were demonstrating, a large portion of those interviewed cited their honor had been offended, and it has become increasingly clear to Freekish authority that negative sentiment amongst the populace towards the Sovereign League has exploded. Police and tribal guards were positioned throughout each of the demonstration zones, but violence was almost non-existant due to the hardline stance of Lord Dreadfire's regime against civil disturbance. Though oddly enough, police did nothing to stop the lynching of several pro-Sovereign League supporters who had turned out to demonstrate against the Empire's war with Doomingsland. The victims were severely beaten by the angry mod, and several were either hung from trees or shot, or in an extreme case, dragged to death from behind a truck.

The Freekish government has yet to release a public statement concerning the Sovereign League and their relentless campaign of propaganda and rhetoric, though many believe it is simply because officials do not care. Minister Hartman and Lord Dreadfire himself have stated that the Sovereign League is, quote "a paper tiger, a non-issue that is unworthy of our attention".

Meanwhile, support for the war against the slave trading state of Doomingsland is at an all time high, and the military is reporting record enlistments since Lord Dreadfire's proclamation that the global slave trade would be shut down. The Journal Times also reports that the national economy has now shifted to full wartime production, something that has not been done since the days of World War 5 under former President Kaye.

The Imperial Freekish Navy has yet to engage any Doomani ships, and initial salvos are likely days away. In a recent statement, Lord Dreadfire promises to, quote: "Show the world what a recharged and resupplied Freekish war machine can do". Decades of relentless warfare had taken a toll on the Automagfreek economy and military, though during the recent isolationist period the Freekish military was able to recoup and put a wide variety of new weapons into service, which will without a doubt see action in the days ahead. Freekish markets have been doing extremely well since the "rebuilding" period, with record profits still being reported across the boards.

"Doom vs Freeks! World Rejoices, SL and Gholgoth Argue Like Kids!"

Written By: Alvero Ramerez

North Point - Well folks, seem the world is coming to an end. Freeks are facing off against catholic wackjobs. Dictator Lord Damien Dreadfire and his billions of brainwashed and basically slave people are facing off against Maximus III Doomanus and his billions of brainwashed religious wackjobs who own slaves. There will be blood, or yes, there will be blood...

But, my god! It seems evil has pulled it's own card. Anti-christ vs Anti-Christ! Killer of billions vs Slaver! It all sounds like some cheap B-rated movie from some puny Barkozian or Clandonia Film Company. It's all as unlikely as Griffencrest facing off against the Kraven Corporation.

Then again, maybe it was bound to happen. Maybe evil seeks out it's own to kill to ensure it's place in the world? If so, every evil nation will be invaded by a larger evil nation. Should we be worried? Or should we rejoice?

But any how, there will be only losers in this war. AMF's hordes will struggle against and be slaughed by the Doomies' terrain and technology, but not until the Doomies suffer millions of dead and wounded personal. Their economies will suffer endlessly, eventually having to rely in imports as their manpower and resources are depleted, becoming economic slaves of their own allies. This will also keep AMF from fighting the real slavers of the world, the Leafanistani Mafia, Griffencrest, The Kraven Corporation and most of the Corporate Alliance. And yes, I know GASN and GUSN and other 'democratic' alliances can 'handle' the CA 'menance' (more like a bee trying to sting a rhino). But the GASN couldn't 'handle' its way out of a paper bag, and GUSN is too busy trying to help communism and socialism to be of any help.

Of course that leaves the SL, but they're too busy yelling at Gholgoth for being 'hypocrites' and violating national sovereignty. Only a few countries in the SL and Gholgoth have any common sense now a days.

My call to action? Well, I think Gholgoth and NATO should reign in their leader and send him in the direction of The Kraven Corporation and their CA buddies, if AMF can crush them easily, why don't they? After all Arterus is like 'the breeding ground for oil', and home of the Kraven war machine, heck, wouldn't AMF want more resources, they would also earn alot of friends. Also, some SL nations should stop protecting Doomingsland, they can handle themselves in their own world, they have 'the holy city', they'll be placated for a while. Now's the perfect opprotunity to go after Kraven and also earn some nice resources and friends.

So maybe there is a need for this 'Call to Arms' of AMF's, but it's in the totally wrong direction. Maybe my government has the write idea by joining NATO, maybe Ms. Kara Maddox can convince both sides them to take a look at Kraven. I know she has convinced Juumanistra, Whyatica, Novacom and No Endorse to take the 'banner of freedom' against the Corporate Alliance. Maybe we need another war like that against the EVIL Alliance, where GASN and SL operated in unity with one another, thank god for Cravan.

International Imperialists Wage War

As the dust only just settles on the glorious March Revolution in our own country, citizens might be forgiven for forgetting about the world outside our borders as the Socialist Revolutionary Vanguard Party reasserts the right of the people to control their own lives. However, this newspaper, continuing our long tradition of examining both internal and external politics in terms of the eternal class struggle even when freedom of speech was curtailed under the vile President-General Smith, has been looking at the foreign situation and sees a grave war on the horizon.

Two of the largest Imperialist nations upon the face of the planet, the Excessively Armed Empire of Automagfreek and the Doomingsland Imperium, seek war with eachother on a scale unseen for many years. These two behemoths seek to do battle with eachother over the concept of slavery, which Automagfreek claims to deny Doomingsland the further ability to undertake.

This event clearly shows the continuing Imperialist struggles that will constantly involve non-Socialist and non-Communist nations. Seeking further resources to expand the economic wealth of the Ruling Classes, Imperialist states shall always seek war with eachother over resources availiable. For Doomingsland, the crisis facing the Ruling Class is over their continuing the slave trade, the most vile, brutal and stark form of Capitalism imaginable. This Ruling Class, through religious and militaristic propaganda, will demand the oppressed Subject Classes under their control to do battle on their behalf, to defend their vile trade against cessation by the Excessively Armed Empire. Thousands will die.

As for the Excessively Armed Empire, their statement of anti-slavery seems a prima face noble in question. However, it is important to understand the underlying reasons behind this response - Dreadfire, seeking further glory and an expansion of resources under his control seeks war over an issue that would provoke such a nation as Doomingsland into war. Through this, he continues to placate his own populace from realising their class conciousness and overthrowing his regime. Furthermore, although stated as 'anti-slavery', the Excessively Armed Empire has been renowned for taking and enslaving populaces for their own benefit, through either direct military confrontation or through the subtle aspects of international investment in other economies, thereby allowing them to turn other states into dependents of the Automagfreek economy. Furthermore, although Damien may free those slaves currently under control, this author questions the fate of those Doomingslandi citizens who survive the initial onslaught, and whether they will simply be enslaved instead, thereby turning the situation upon its initial head.

Wherever the Ruling Classes still maintain their grip, there shall be wars such as this. The only salvation for humanity is to throw off the shackles of the Ruling Class and realise that every man, woman and child upon this planet is equal unto eachother, and that resources should be provided and shared equally to all those who require them, whilst society in turn recieves the fruits of the worker's labour for themselves and the other workers of the world. The only way Doomingslandi and Freekish citizens can save themselves is through a mass uprising as seen in Peltapavlosk in recent days, and to establish themselves as the true masters of their destinies!

“Yet again, with their unprovoked mass-attack on peaceful media satellites in the zone of conflict, the Doomani prove themselves to be unworthy of the title of a civilized nation.” ~~Liberty Times editorial

“We apologize, but ANN will not be able to transmit video of the engagement for the next several hours, until other satellites drift into the area. We would like also to point out to the viewer that the so-called Doomani military had now engaged in an unprovoked attack on Allanean civilian media telecommunications, engaging in aggression against the sacred freedom of information and speech…” ~~ANN News announcement.

“While we cannot at the current be involved militarily in the conflict, as the Field Marshal of the Republic, I would like to recommend the transfer of ten additional combat submarines to the Freekish navy. Further, in my authority as the Field Marshal of the Republic, I hereby authorize all Allanean airforce bases and fleet bases to provide service, refueling, and weapons to Freekish ships and aircraft…”~~Alexander Kirillovich Kazansky, Field Marshal of the United States.

Lord Dreadfire, try as I might, it is impossible for me to avoid the topic of the Catholics, their filth, their depravity, their antisocial behavior, and the evil of their religion.

As a Nationalist, I understand the Freekish desire to maintain their national pride by crushing the savage Doomani beasts and purging their evil death cult and practice of slavery from the earth. I therefore will not offer overt military assistance unless requested by yourself.

However, I must strongly advise against your actions in British Londinium. Certainly you know of the hazards of spreading your forces too thinly, diverting your troops away from the far more formidable Doomani front, and inciting ever more international criticism at the time you are at the gates of Urbs Doomanus. The last thing anyone wants is to provoke other nations into siding with the theocratic Doomani imperialists, when you are already hostile toward the Sovereign League.

I wish you luck in Doomingsland, and hope to watch the live Puritania of the demon Maximus in person. As one warrior to another, may you succeed in your crusade, that the peoples of the world need not fear being sold into slavery far from their homes to cruel oppressors.

Signed,
General Iosif N. Malakov,

In the meanwhile, a single DVD made it's way into the offices of the Kahanistani Samizdat Corporation. It was packaged like a Doomani propaganda video, and titled: Our Emperor at Home and at Work. As a matter of fact, once one viewed the video, it was also made to look as a Doomani propaganda video – or rather, a truly sick parody thereof.

It consisted of what appeared to be documentary footage of the Emperor of Doomingsland, Maximus, engaging in various types of extremely perverted and humiliating (by Doomani standards) sex. Any obscure roman name – fellatio, passive-gay-sex, any kind of perversion – if this video was to be believed, Doomingsland's leader did it all.

Additionally, if the film was to be believed , there was a big reason why Doominglsand was so much into big weapons and big military – let's just say Maximus had a lot of stuff to compensate for – or rather, him not having a lot of, well, stuff.

The film also involved an 'Allanean' looking suspiciously like the United States Fieldmarshal, a 'Kahanistani prisoner', three sturty legionnaires and multiple animals.

And then the credits ran, in which the Doomani office responsible for military propaganda claimed responsibility for the flick, the Emperor was listed as a principal actor, and all the other roles were claimed to have been filled by people with common Doomani names.

The film has been accompanied with a single note:

According to my information, this film has been recovered by Allanean forces who fought in Africa. Copies have been uploaded to several video-sharing sites, but we are sure you can still make a handy profit distributing this. Within several hours, you will also receive some aid in covering initial production.

Indeed, three hours later, an 'anonymous donor' transferred six million dollars to the account of the Samizdat Corporation.

Within minutes of the DVD transmission, a factory in New Sodom, Havenic Kahanistan, had begun production of the Allanean film. Tens of thousands of small, round discs labeled Our Emperor at Home and at Work rolled off the assembly lines into huge vats, where immigrant and other impoverished laborers, now making the obscene rate of five shekels, or about nine UN Standard Dollars, an hour, put them into wheelbarrows to the line where plastic or polymer disc covers were made.

By the end of the week, Kahanistanian teenagers were talking about nothing else in the halls of their schools, inundating their little brothers and sisters with the lurid details of Maximus pulling a Kenneth Pinyan. One particularly slutty girl posted a copy of it on her Myspace, implying that she would let guys do the things in the video to her. People also smoked weed and drank booze while watching it in mixed-gender groups, creating the background for many an orgy. v

CHAOS ON DOOMANI BEACHES; ASSAULT ON PLAETAEA SHATTERED AMID SCENES OF TERROR

Custodes throw back Sentinel assault


Special Article by: Lord Regent Seth Jamaane

It has been some time since war was declared between the Imperium Doomanum and the Excessively Armed Empire; time in which many nations beside ourselves have been so courteous as to express their opinions. We are aware that many believe that Dreadfire's record of genocide is too much to deny, that in the end, Caesar Maximus will be humbled and brought before the madman in chains, provided he does not kill himself in shame. It makes my skin crawl even to write of such wretched filth.

Today, however, this very day news came from across the seas that we have been vindicated. The doubters, the weak, and the effeminate have been proven wrong, and once again the Sacred Emperor, all praise to him, has seen with a god's eyes, piercing through the veil of possibility to the inevitable truth.

That truth, sons of Typhon, is this: the gods mock the power of even the mightiest of men.

Lord Damien Dreadfire, king to a nation of slaves and curs, follower of a false and vile pantheon, the man pulling the strings on that loud and amateurish butcher of the truth, Minister Hartman, has had one thread of truth to his claims all these years: the Sentinels are powerful indeed. For those who have not heard of these abominations, they are twisted and sick beyond imagining. Half-human, they have been created in defiance of the gods and without their blessing, and thus they are not truly alive. They are but vicious hounds: the call of the Freeks drifts through the world, Dreadfire points, and the Sentinels course and kill. They are made to glorify destruction alone, serving nothing but the whims of their black-hearted master. Much of the Excessively Armed Empire is nothing but an array of props and lies to deceive the world; the Sentinels, however, are the awful truth. Suffice it to say that if they stood upon our shores tomorrow, the Legions would at last have a true war to wage.

And so, hearing this, the fearful may wonder at the fate of the Doomani, standing alone against a tide of unholy and sickening fiends. Look with scorn upon such wavering and fainthearted men, and remember that the Divine One gave his assurance that the Doomani would prevail. He who loses faith in Caesar loses faith in the Sacred Emperor; retaining that, then, prepare to hear the truth.

For some time now, Doomani and Freekish fleets have exchanged volleys of missiles. Hundreds and thousands and tens of thousands of them, streaking the sky like showers of lethal rain, rending ships asunder. The chatter of chainguns and the roar of flak firing mark the explosions of missiles in midair, burning out like aborted children, or a candle thrust into water. In the air, their pilots duel, myriad fingers on the fleets' fists, twisting and turning into knots and tangled labyrinths dotted with chaff, missiles, and bullets. The swarms of aircraft shrink steadily, as plane after plane hurtles, crippled, into the sea or into a ship below. In a word, there is chaos. It is from the eye of this storm, aboard his flagship, that Damien Dreadfire ordains his landing.

At Plataea, the Custodes of the Imperium Doomanum, servants of Caesar and defenders of honor and justice, awaited the onslaught of the Sentinel horde. They raise their rifles as the monsters spill out like rats onto terra firma, and the battle is joined. Artillery rains fire upon the swarm of Dreadfire's slaves, and as they scale the cliffs, the Custodes fight them tooth and nail, but the spawn of darkness overrun the beaches, establishing a foothold. They enjoy a single moment of triumph.

Suddenly, in a prepared response, thousands upon thousands of Doomani shells tore into the enemy host like the storm of the gods' wrath. The Sentinels withered in the purging flame like moths, and the Doomani charge forward to retrieve what is theirs. Blood stains the sand amid thousands of horrifically scorched corpses. The putrid smell of burning flesh wafts like the breath of hell over the battlefield as the Custodes, the Christian cross burned into their brows, use their machineguns to grind the Freeks apart like tender flesh being diced. With teeth and fists and guns, the Sentinels fight like the beasts they are, in vain against the might of the Custodes. When the crimson sands, turned to glass in places by the fury of the Doomani counterattack, lie silent once more, the Custodes retrieve their dead: a few thousand of them. But with the aid of the gods, who fight for the honor of the Doomani without their knowledge or belief, the Imperium has heard that tens of thousands of Sentinels were slaughtered in that brief, brutal engagement.

Yes, the fleets still trade blows, and the first wave is only that: a first wave. But such a crushing victory sets the tone of the whole war. The Doomani have the upper hand, and they will fight off the monsters again, and again, and again, until at last Dreadfire is shamed before his false gods and handed over to the justice of Caesar Maximus Doomanus. His pride has been rewarded already; soon, if he is fool enough, he will reap the full repayment.

Upon seeing such a laughable response coming from within CAD, Minister of War Marv Bonesplitter had the following to say:

I wouldn't call losing a company of about 75 men in a probing mission a catastrophe at all. What journalists within The Warmaster fail to realize is that this is a war, and in wars people die. Especially when outmanned, outgunned, and with no reinforcements. I would certainly HOPE that the Custodes emerged victorious, because if not then Doomingsland would have earned a reputation as having the most pathetic soldiers in centuries. The Sentinels in that opertaion died serving a purpose, and they fought well while killing their fair share of Custodians....I mean, Custodes.

Propaganda spewing from the bowels of CAD will sadly no longer have the effect the deceivers hope for, because reality is clearly the exact opposite. The Doomani navy is being destroyed, and soon Maximus will feel the wrath of countless swarms of Sentinels the likes of which he cannot survive.
