The First Royal Fleet set sail out of Daufuskie, heading towards the cities of New Katinisia and Jekitla. They had orders to blockade the cities and sink anyone that tried to attack them. The massive fleet would have been quite an imposing sight coming over the horizon. They were ready to fight if needed. It was some time by sea between the two nations, but the flotilla moved at a steady pace. And soon enough, it stood 0.2 km outside of Katislovic waters. The Full Admiral commanding the fleet issued this message:

To the opposing fleet from the worthless Empire of Katislov:

This is but your one and only chance to surrender. Surrender unconditionally and we will not be forced to pummel your fleet until your ships dead hulls sit on the bottom of the ocean serving no purpose but as coral reefs for fishes, nor will we have to burn your cities until they are but charred patches of earth. You are vastly outnumbered and outgunned. Save your people now, give us your surrender!

With Mercy,
Ian Caesar, Admiral of the 1st Royal Fleet

To the opposing forces from the worthless and foolish Empire of Katislov:

Then, unless right now, you swear to let the Catholic Church begin practicing freely in your nation, this conflict will no longer be a test of our skills of diplomacy, but of our skills of war strategy.

With a finger on the large, red button,
Ian Caesar, Admiral of the 1st Royal Fleet

We will not let the Catholic Church in our lands, if fact a law has just been passed banning all christian churches. You haved dared to attack the Empire and for this you will be punished. Your fleet will be destroyed.

General Iron Fist
Imperial Chief of Staff

To the opposing forces from the worthless, foolish and tyrannical Empire of Katislov:

Then, you, the one who stands in the way of freedom and progress, and in the way of the goals of this nation, the greater good of the world, have already lost this war.

May God, the one and only God in Heaven, have mercy on you, because I won't,
Ian Caesar, Admiral of the 1st Royal Fleet

He took the printed message taped it to one of the missiles on an F-14 on the HDS Duchy, waiting to take off. This is how that message would be delivered.

The F-14, along with 100 other aircraft took off from the twin Nimitz Class carriers. The battleships and cruisers turned to broadside the opposing fleet, and their guns rotated to firing position. Prior to the guns firing, 200 Tomahawk missiles launched from various ships at the enemy fleet.

Then, the seas sent out tidal waves from the percussions of the several hundred gun salute that was sent out to the Kaitslovic fleet. The guns reloaded, and fired again, and again.

The fleet of planes assisted as well. As soon as the Tomahawks fired, the planes fired long range air-to-sea missiles. They fired 600 missiles within the first few minutes. They continued to fly towards the enemy, ready to engage the enemy air force.

North of Julia
B-2 Spirits taxied out onto the runways. They were loaded down with several MOAB tonne and a half bombs. They flew at top speed toward the Military bases in the north west of the Katislovic lands. Once they were over the bases, there were a total of four, and each dropped 6 of the giant bombs on each base.

As the enemy aircraft approached the battleships, the nearly 900 F-40 aircraft on the 5 Katislovin aircraft carriers launched, it was a mighty sight, they fired a wave of over a 1000 missiles into the Daufuskie fighters before turning their attention to the Daufuskie fleet, this time they bombarded the enemy with missiles and bombs. Nearly 60 of the Katislovin aircraft took hits.
Under the water the Katislovin submarines fired torpedo after torpedo at the enemy hulls from their safe position behind the battleships. Meanwhile the battleships took most of the enemy fire, retaliating with their massive guns, whilst interception missiles took out as many of enemy missiles as possible, KRNS Kent and KRNS Ketal took heavy damage. Up in space a lethal satilite array of missiles moved into position and fired, adding to the attack
At the military installations the bombing devastated the top levels, killing hundreds of soldiers, however from deep below soared up ground to air missiles at 5.7 mach already locked on to the bombers that had attacked and were now being tracked by satilite

At an airfield on the north coast of Katislov 25 B-74 Shadowcasters and 150 Z-12s took off, heading for Daufuskie City, after some time they reached their target and unleashed hell, firing missiles and dropping bombs on civilian, goverment and military targets with no difference.

The Daufuskie Aeronavy was coordinated well with the Hydronavy; therefore when the Kaitslovic fighters launched the massive wave of missiles at the fighters, both the fighters and the ships shot up chaff and various types of flares and other missile distraction devices. Still, the missiles did quite a number on the Aeronavy.

In defense against the enemy air attack on the Hydronavy, ships continued to fire chaff, so much that the sky seemed but a bright orange glow. The Daufuskien fleet had recently reeiquped for missile based warfare and therefore gotten more missile batteries per ship and more missile defenses. This included the CIWS defenses. As the chaff alone was not enough, the ships were all equipped with literally dozens of CIWS 20mm semi-explosive missile defense cannons. In lemans terms, a whole lot of flack.

The CIWS tripped automatically, without human intervention as long as it was armed, and started shooting any flying object not sending a friendly IFF tag that came within range of the ship. Missiles fell by the scores. But, still, significant damage was done to the Hyrdonavy, not immobilizing damage, but still plenty for a first strike.

Then came the torpedoes.

All the ships were equipped with towed anti-torpedo diversion devices, which made noise and gave off heat to distract the torpedoes from the precious ships. But in this case, there were simply too many torpedoes, many ships suffered multiple hits.

This however, was what the Daufuskien submarines had been waiting for. The Kaitslovic submarines, their stealth now broken by the various clangs of torpedo firing were wide open targets with the Daufuskien subs able to choose when they came out of stealth. The subs had been progressing slightly ahead of the fleet and were quite close to the enemy subs. The fleet of Daufuskien submarines unleashed multiple barrages of torpedoes upon the enemy. They knew they were out numbered; however, the odds were still in their favor as they had the element of surprise.

Above the surface again, the Daufuskie had begun launching a counter-attack to the counter-attack. B-1B’s equipped with anti-sea warfare munitions were being launched using SCRAM jets from the decks of the aircraft carriers. The Aeronavy was struggling in the air, though the Daufuskiens had modified the Nimitiz class to hold an additional 27 aircraft, they were still outnumbered about 4 to 1, a fair fight then.

The bombers would drop the guided munitions almost as soon as they got into the air; landing was highly difficult on the carriers, but possible. The anti-sea munitions were giant bombs; GPS guided and set to detonate on impact. The advantage was that though they might not do so much damage as a torpedo hit or direct missile strike, but they did sufficient damage to a broad area of ships and if there ever was a direct hit, the ship would seem to cease to exist. There were 16 bombers and their main target was the enemy aircraft carriers.

[Over Kaitslovic airspace in the Northwest]

Between stealth and chaff the B-2’s were able to avoid most of the missiles. None the less, 2 were lost. Being billon dollar a piece craft, it was no small hit to the Daufuskien war machine.

[Daufuskie City, Military C3 center]

Corporal Justice stared at a long range radar screen, among other high tech tracking devices, waiting on something to happen. Because conflict with Kaitslov had broken out, the Generals had ordered extra radar and more people to monitor it. It was nearing the end of his shift when dots appeared on the radar. “Captain, bogeys 200 miles out, heading right for us.”

The Captain examined the screen, without a reply, he picked up the multi-frequency broadcasting radio and sent the following message:

“Attention unidentified aircraft, you are on a direct course for Daufuskien Restricted Airspace. Please change course immediately and respond to this message. If you enter Restricted Airspace you will be shot down.”

However, the language of Daufuskie was Latin, so the message would have been said in Latin.

In Daufuskian Airspace
The radio burst into life for a few seconds in some strange lanuage then silence. Pilot Huttet spoke, "What was that?"
"No doubt Daufuskie threatening us with ground to air missiles, we're in their territory." Replied his co-pilot, "Look out for anything coming our way and get the fighters to shoot it down." At that moment several dots appeared on the screen. The fighters moved into attack formation.
Naval Battle
The surprise attack on the submarines meant about 7 were destoyed instantly, but then the rest locked to the enemy who had fired at them, now the Katislovin submarines gave no quarter, unleashing their full power in a wave of torpedoes, firing again and again, now determined to finish the job. At the same time guided depth charges were rolled off the battleships, being guided by small propulsion systems controlled from one of the Katislovin submarines. Above the water the F-40s flew back toward the enemy aircraft, once again firing a wave of missiles at the enemy and once again then turning their attention towards
Imperial Palace, Katislov
Meanwhile in the capital, the emperor looked up, General Iron Fist was approaching, looking annoyed, "General, how goes the battle?"
Sir,we need to send a message to Daufuskie, to show what happens to those who defy us."
"What do you suggest general? Personally I think we should send out say, 6 of our new X-Kat Class Submarines and tell the 1st Imperial Air Fleet to launch a full attack against the Daufuskie homeland."
"Sir, the entire 1st Imperial Air Fleet? That's 20,000 F-40 fighters and 5,000 B-74 bombers. And 6 X-Kat Class Submarines?"
The 1st Imperial Air Fleet was the ultimate weapon in air supremacy, only activated whilst the country was at war and then only for a short time due to huge operating costs, nothing could take a pounding from it and survive.
"Well General, you were the one who wanted to send a message, so yes, tell them to attack, the 6 X-Kat Class Submarines will completely destroy their fleet and such air power will mean that soon their country will be so much rubble, I have noticed from intelligence reports that our defence budget is much larger than theirs. Also authorise full mobilisation of the army and prepare transports to take care of what's left."

At airfields across the the east side of the country, planes of the 1st Imperial Air Fleet took off, all headed for Daufuskie, a small group of around 50 fighters were sent to intercept enemy bombers before they could reach their target. As the attack force flew high over the enemy fleet, over 4000 satilite guided bombs and missiles were dropped but none slowed down to see how many had found their targets and flew straight on. Soon both the interception squad and the attack force were in range of their targets, the interception squad fired missile after missile towards the enemy bombers whilst at the same time the attack force went about locating and destroying all possible military targets, nothing would be spared.

At a small naval base near the capital, 6 submarines, all unidentifiyable launched for the first time. Only recently completed they were the most advanced peice of equipment the Katislov Navy had. Originally based on the design of the DepKat Class, they had been lengthened and improved in many ways. With 12 custom 900mm torpedo tubes, 400 weapon slots and 328 metres long each they could take out anything, custom stealth torpedoes and a revelolutionary launch mechanisim meant that they were detectable for only a millionth of a second each time they fired. There were only 20 in existance, each costing $15 billion to build. They moved at their top speed, 49 knots towards the battle. Soon they were there, the tubes opened and long range torpedoes aimed mostly at the enemy aircraft carriers, though some were headed for the main enemy battle group, were fired by the dozen.

[Daufuskie City]

“No response sir, please advise!” Yelled Corporal Justice after a minute of waiting on the bogey’s response.

“Well, son, I have this to say to that.” Said the Captian as he popped his collar on his black uniform, the medals on the breast shaking slightly as he did.

“And what is that sir?”

“It’s God’s job to forgive the enemy, it’s ours to arrange the meeting.” He paused. “Execute defense scenario 922, full cruise missile assault on enemy formation, 3 waves of 1000 long range SAM’s at 30 second intervals. I want 100 F-22’s in the air five seconds ago, all packed with long and short range air to air munitions, pick off what ever is left. I want 100 F-15E’s in the air right behind the F-22’s. All coastal defense ships engage enemy at first opportunity.”

And it was so. 1000 cruise missile took off in a blazing spectacle of a second sun in the evening sky. And then twice more. Sonic booms shook the city as millions of dollars worth a fighter jets took skyward after the cruise missiles. And at times the faint sounds of long range missiles flying away from the fighters so much faster than sound could be heard. On the glittering sea, there stood sentinel warships, and from them streamed great trials of pure white smoke, as missiles rode into battle on flames as if cavalrymen of a nobler war and time.

[Naval Battle, off the coast of New Katisinia]

3 submarines took hard hits and were doomed, but only one was immediately destroyed, the other two kept firing, both concentrating fire on one enemy sub to maximize damage until they sank. The duo fired 24 torpedoes at 4 submarines before Neptune claimed them. The other two submarines immediately saw they were outnumbered and filled their ballasts and sunk to the bottom and stayed silent giving the appearance of being sunk but really completely undetectable that they were still fine and operational.

[[Above the surface]]

CIWS fire still filled the air and chaff kept the skies orange, missile strikes ruined millions of dollars worth a ships, and sank several, but as long as a single gun could be fired at the enemy, it was, one ship, lisping at a 55 degree angle, and angled its guns down and was still accurately firing at the enemy. The volleys at the ships seemed unstoppable.

The broken Aeronavy chain of command had reorganized and each four fighter formation chased down breakaway enemy fighters until death or flew into larger pockets firing randomly hoping to kill something and make the enemy break rank.

The B1B’s continued to take losses but still put up a fight against the enemy, continuing to drop several more tonne and a half bombs at the enemy and them began dropping smaller, more precise munitions onto the aircraft carriers. The Daufuskien aircraft carriers fired several hundred tomahawk missiles to complement the air assault.

[[On board the HDS Duchy]]
“Admiral!” A radar commander called out, “Something coming in fast and high, looks like transcontinental ballistic missiles!”

“Illogical, they wouldn’t nuke us with our fleets in such close proximity.” The Admiral said adjusting his hat.

“See for your self sir.”

“I’ll be goddamned. Those are ICBM’s if I’ve ever seen ‘em.”

“Orders?”

The Admiral paused, thinking, “Move every ship that is capable of moving towards the enemy fleet at full speed. All guns forward and firing, and ram their ships, if these things are tracking, they’ll follow us and kill them too, if they are not, then this tactic gets us the hell out of Doge.”

And the once great but now rag tag Daufuskien fleet complied. And the aircraft carriers set a direct course for the aircraft carriers as did the cruisers; and the battleships and frigates a straight course for the battleships. The hospital ships dispersed and did not try to ram the enemy.

{A few OOC notes: I did not understand the paragraph with ‘4000 satellite aimed missiles’ in it, could you please explain that a bit more, and give more specifically what you’re aiming at. Also, you don’t see what an imperceptible amount of time a millionth of a second is, it takes far longer than that for the missile’s fuel to light, much less for it to exit any kind of firing system, I’ll give you a second of detectable with your new firing system, that is not a whole lot when you consider how loud launching a missile is. Finally, please finish your sentences, I figured the one at the end of the Navy Battle paragraph was ‘to the fleet.’ but in other instances that could be very confusing.}

Naval Battle
An officer rushed into the Admiral's office. "Sir, the majority of the enemy fleet is heading towards us at full speed, only the lightly armed medical ships have been left behind we believe they are attempting to ram our ships" The admiral looked up.
" How soon will they reach us?"
"About 15 minutes sir." The officer looked worried, "What should we do?"
The admiral chuckled, the enemy had fallen for his trap, believing that they were about to be nuked, they were heading towards the fleet. However the missiles coming towards them were ordinary explosives that would do little damage, before the enemy got close they would come in range of the massive experimental guns and short range rocket battery of a secret bombardment instillation on the coast, it had been a risky plan but the enemy had fallen for it, the coastal guns would rip them apart and even if they didn't the mines in the water would. "Tell the X-Kat submarines to go around their main fleet and attack the ships they left behind, then tell coastal defence to prepare to fire."
Above in the air the enemy were dropping bombs on the carriers, most of the bombs were intercepted but some of them got through, causing damage to 3 of the smaller carriers. The enemy aircraft were approaching, as they came near the Katislovin aircraft launched half of their remaining missiles into the enemy. Nearly 120 aircaft had been lost but the rest were still going. The battleships, kept firing their guns and offensive missiles at the oncoming enemy fleet. They knew the battle was in their favour by a long way. The 6 X-Kat Class Submarines manouvered themsleves past the majority of the enemy and the mine field then fired on the dispersed hospital ships which were undefended.
The Imperial Announcement Stand, Katisinia, Katislov
The Emperor stepped up to the podium, the crowd fell silent, the message was being broadcast across the Empire on all channels. He began to speak.
"My subjects, today is the dawn of a new age for the empire, today as our forces fight our enemies and lay down their lives so that our country is secure a new age for the empire will begin with the creation of the Imperial Katislov InterGalactic Space Fleet and the launch of it's first 10 ships. The Destiny, The Daring, The Gallient, The Defender, The Peaceful, The Bright, The Opulant, The Menacing, The Explorer and our flagship The Nemesis. Beware enemies of Katislov for now their will be no hiding place for you, not in this universe for these ships will seek you out wherever you may run." At this the crowd cheered in unision, the Emperor waited until they had quietened before continuing, "Today, shall be the start of Katislovin exploration and to mark that The Nemesis will launch on it's first mission, to successfully prove that the Empire is part of the modern world by dropping the Empire's first thermonuclear bomb from orbit onto a testing ground 500Km off the north coast." At that moment the ground began to shake and a rumbling noise was heard, then a spacecraft launched from a hill to the north west of Katisinia. The Nemesis.
Over Daufuskie Airspace
As the waves of cruise missiles hit the Katislovin aircraft, hundreds were destroyed, however due to the size of the force most of the aircraft were still flying, some headed towards the enemy coastal fleet and the B-74 Shadowcasts dropped over 2000 bombs into the enemy ships. The rest of the force meanwhile headed for Daufuskie City, having located the postion from where the cruise missiles came, dropped bomb after bomb on the enemy positions, the F-40 fighters engaged the enemy aircraft, outnumbering them and having the upper hand, firing missile after missile towards the enemy, over 20,000 missiles were fired.
Katislov Army Base
Soldiers and tanks going on transport planes, ready to roll off when over enemy territory, reinforcements and heavier equipment would be sent by sea once a port was captured, this was being repeated all over the country, the inital force would have 10,000 tanks, 75,000 standard troops and 5000 special forces, their aim would be to capture ports and coastal defences so that the reinforcements could come in, each soldier had to have enough supplies for 2 weeks in the form of long lasting food and plenty of water. Drop zones had been chosen and as soon as the airforce had destroyed enough of the enemy defences they would go in.

OOC: The missile are being guided towards your ships by a satillite intsead of heat which has selected the targets.

[Naval Battle]

CIWS ended up taking out most of the missiles, as the guns were able to point strait up they shot down the big missiles. But still they hurt the fleet, they sunk several battleships and a cruiser as well as damaging an aircraft carrier severely. A battleship leading the group struck a mine in a giant clash of metal, water, and explosives. The Admiral called for the fleet to go full reverse and stay out of the mine field. The fleet then turned its broadside to the enemy and opened up with another round of thousands of shells and missiles.

The hospital ships had been equipped for this mission and since it was war time they had a CIWS defense system and some chaff as well. But the missiles tore them up quite well because neither of these were the best because these ships were always meant to go with escorts.

[Underground bunker, undisclosed location in Daufuskie]

“Your magesty,” said a member of the council as he addressed the Duke whom was sitting in a large chair with his back turned to the councilman, the fine chair and the fine clothes the individuals wore was in stark contrast with the Spartan-like room, everything was bland and plain, functional over fashionable.

“Yes?” replied the Duke in a slow, drawn out tone.

“The Kaitslovs, they had begun some kind of space program, big goals, apparently weaponizing space is their goal.”

“Do we not share it? Yes, we do. Project IDS, remember?”

“Yes, but IDS is not to the extent they are talking about.”

“They may have a big defense budget yes, but I don’t care who you are, space weapons cost hundreds of billions, even large nations usually only sustain an array of godrod satellites. And if it is such that the Kaitslovs are indeed making a space weapons program, what is the status of IDS?”

“Ready to launch in our territory in Alaska, sir.”

“Then do it as soon as you can. And when it gets up there, as the Admiral said he would if they did not surrender, make their cities but scorched pieces of Earth. And take our the pesky new spacecraft as well.”

[[Deskoon, Alaska, Transpacificia, Daufuskie Territory]]

Rocket engines shook the light dusting of snow the trees had gotten overnight off, and the silence of the Alaskan autumn was shattered by their roar and the late evening sky turned midday by their glow. As the unmarked rocket lifted off it was said to hold on board a communications satellite, which indeed it did, but also, something more sinister and secret.

Once in space, the satellite orbited until it came over Kaitslov, when it was aligned it fired a sphere of tungsten 2.5 meters in diameter and at a speed of 15 thousand miles an hour at New Katisinia. Not so much a godrod, more of a ‘godrock’ and the damage would resemble that of a very large hydrogen bomb; an earthquake that would test the Richter Scale’s worth would wipe the city off the map and the resulting fires would leave but scarred earth where it once stood. The worst part was, there was more to come.

The ‘communications satellite’ would repeat the procedure 6 more times, an small asteroid at each of the two military bases in the northwest, one at Jekitla, one at Jetig, one at Tilik and one at the capital, Katisinia.

Finally, it would wait until the right moment and fire its final ‘godrock’ at the Nemisis which would tear a giant hole in the craft as both objects were going at such great speed and it would be even greater speeds in the frictionless environment of space.

[Daufuskie City]

The Duke had been informed and evacuated from the city.

Now the generals had control, and they were going to show the power of the fortress that was Daufuskie City. The Kaitslovic aircraft had come within short range missiles, 30,000 of them, which launched at the enemy. 1000 planes of various makes took to the air and fired additional thousands of missiles at the enemy, flak guns fired toward the sea and at the enemy; the ships at sea, though some had been lost, continued to fire sea sparrow missiles by the dozens at the enemy planes.

Land and sea based CIWS and chaff and other missile diversion methods went up into the air and destroyed many thousands, only 100 got through to do damage, and they killed about 500 people and did over a hundred thousand dollars in damages.

[Badlands]

11 C-5 Galaxy planes started down the runway, their massive jets roaring, and their bellies loaded down with troops, tanks, and prefabricated bivouacs for the troops. They were coming to occupy the territory the godrocks would leave virtually vacant. They were wscourted by several hundred fighters and 3 AWAKS and C-130’s for mid-flight refueling.

[Henders]

In accompaniment to the Aeronavy, the Hydronavy was deploying an invasion force as well, 72 troop transports being escorted by a massive armada of warships. Heading to the same place as the Aeronavy, but they would arrive considerably later.

[ooc: More exact listings later]

Naval Battle
The 6 X-Kat submarines circled around to face the reversing enemy fleet and fired a wave of torpedoes. Meanwhile the main fleet also fired a wave of torpedoes, missiles and shells, some of them were damaged by enemy fire. Onboard one of the carriers Admiral Hel looked up, he had just seen the enemy reverse out of the trap at the last minute, a messenger had arrived.
"What is it?"
"The 1st Imperial Attack Fleet is 10 miles away, Grand Admiral Kent says that LightKill Weapon Platforms will be ready to fire in under 10 minutes."
"Admiral Kent, the 1st Imperial Attack Fleet, where did they come from?"
"Apparently they have been ordered to test the capabilities of the LightKill before moving on to attack an enemy transport convoy being prepared at a place called Henders, it was picked up by satilite.."
The Admiral smiled, the enemy wouldn't suspect a thing, he looked out the window, there on the horizion was the 1st Attack Fleet, the enemy didn't know that several of the approaching ships had 10 Megawatt lasers onboard though. It would be too easy.
New Katisinia
An alarm went off as soon as the long range radar detected something incoming, then it appeared in the sky for a moment before impacting on the ground. A blast of energy destroyed most of the city instantly, however the local military base in the north of the city survived being 25 miles away from the centre of impact in the south of the city. Instantly phone calls were made, and within 5 minutes 20 ICBMs were launched from various locations, 2 to take out the satilite that had fired the device, the radiation would not contaminate the empire as the target was outside the atmostphere and 18 at Daufukie cities to take revenge for the 5 million lives lost by the blast. At the same time the Space Defence Agency put it's anti nuke satilites on full alert to take out any nuclear weapons Daufuskie might fire at the Empire. The Katislovin fighters would keep attacking until the last minute to make sure that the enemy defences were focused on them and not notice the ICBMs until it was too late.
Daufuskie Airspace
Many of the planes attacking the city were destroyed but still most of them managed to evade the missiles, they circled round and attacked again, focusing there missiles on the anti air defences and enemy fighters. Meanwhile over the ships the Katislovin fighters continued to fire wave after wave of missiles at the enemy ships knowing that eventually they would run out chaff at some stage.
Katislov
Meanwhile 1200 fighters took off from various airfields around the Empire, an enemy attack force had been detected on satilites and long range radar flying towards Katislov, their orders were clear, destroy the entire enemy force.
The Nemesis
All of the spacefleet had caught up with the Nemesis, now they fired a wave of missiles and laser beams towards enemy satilites civilian and military, nothing was to remain of the enemy.

[Across Daufuskie]

Over the 18 ICBM’s fired, 54 countering installations of various methods and tactics all across the nation light them up, though the attack on DC had broken down the capital defenses, the rest of the nation was also on high alert, and the multiple counter-missile defenses across the country were ready to fight off an enemy missile attack. Because it was prior knowledge that Katislov was nuclear armed, the facilities were specialized to take out ICBM’s. With that note, 15,000 small counter-ICBM missiles, followed by seemingly infinite CIWS fire came to take out the missiles. Though not too well equipped to deal with airplanes over great distances, they were made to shoot down the missile over 10,000 km away.

[Daufuskie City]

The elaborate defense system of DC had ignored the ICBM’s and let the rest of the defense systems handle them. They concentrated on the missiles and the fighters. A very minute number of missiles did get through, doing damage to several more skyscrapers and this time damaging the Supreme Courthouse. About 250 people died, and an additional 500 or so were wounded, but, the city still had one hell of a fight left to put up.

500 more fighters were dispatched to help destroy the enemy. Mostly these were F-18’s, however, 100 were F-22’s. They engaged the enemy aircraft from a distance over the city. Each aircraft firing multiple missiles made for a sky of red and yellow and grey exhaust filled of thousands of missiles.

[Julia]

The a major airbase in Julia had detected the Kaitslov counter-attack to the invasion force, and the generals had dispatched 1250 aircraft to counter the counter-attack. This force was more of a mix of various craft, F-4’s, F-16’s, F-15’s, F-18’s, and oddly a few MiG-31’s. They flew Supersonic toward the Kaitslovs and engaged at 100 miles apart with long range missiles. They surpassed the major invasion force that had to be sub sonic to stay with the C-5’s.

[Badlands]

Two F-117’s took off from Badlands AFB towards Kaitslov, the stealth craft would fly in under the radar and drop 2,000 pound Anthrax bombs onto to Katick. The Anthrax was of the highest quality and would spread through the city nicely. And because of their speed and stealth, and the quiet, air burst qualities of the Anthrax bombs, the F-117’s would likely slip in and out undetected.

[Space]

Daufuskie had never identified its satellites and it was near impossible to pick out whose satellite was whose in the mass conglomerate of satellites that orbited NSEarth. The only ones that would be detected would be ones that broadcast unencrypted signals, like TV ones, so, while the people would be unhappy with the channel selection, no real damage was done to Daufuskien infrastructure.

OOC: I can’t really respond to the Naval battle until I know wtf ‘Lightkill’ is. Also, you cannot just say your space fleet is finished, time slows down in war, I believed that maybe you had been planning you first for years, but, still 10, ships, at probably 10 billion a pop, plus 100 billion for research per year, even over a 5 or 10 year period, is very expensive. Also, I figure the fleets would have some kind of upkeep but since no one has this it is extremely hard to calculate. If you did not mean more than 3 ships then ignore this part.
Also, is 5 million you total casualties? I hit 5 cities, and 2 military bases perhaps your people are very spread out, and you cites small, but, you seemed to ignore the military bases hits, and remember, these things would make craters probably a mile wide with the force of several nuclear bombs spreading out for several more on impact. (though they would not be radioactive). Though, I will commend you skill at rping the way they would ‘appear, then impact’ so many times people underestimate the speed of things falling from space, its good to see someone who does not.
