The Empires Role in the World (ATTN Taeshan, Solenia, Ziongo/ Open TG me for entry)
November 22
Generals gathered in the masses in the speech room of the newly reninvated, capital home in Easen. They gathered there because the president of Greston was going to tell his plan on how they were to conquer the nation of Taeshan and its allies. We could easily win from just from out numbering them, but whenever we have done that it has resulted in more deaths. To lower the number of casualties John Batther was to set up a strategy and then they would deploy the neccisary amount of troops and hopefully win.
The voices of side conversation from the premiers and generals filled the room until President and Brigader John Batther stepped upon dais. The people fell silent and Mr. Batther started talking, "Tommorow night we will send out Merry's Fleet, Gold's Fleet, and Morgan's Fleet. They take the trip over to Taeshan and take out all docks and Naval Areas. Then they will establish a beach head and then the Irondeck Network will foolow up from behind and conquer all of the coasts not yet under control of the first wave. Hence they do that we pound the inner Taeshan with ICBMs and after two days and one night of the bombardment we will stop and then to every air force base in the area, 40 units will move in to cause as much damage as possible. We will then tighten our perimeter and make the Taeshan land smaller and smaller until the center Taeshan yet remains. Once that is the only part of Taeshan remaining we will first move in a amoured division and behind that will be Carre' Hertolv's Brigade and of course Golden Finch Brigade. Yes I will be fighting with my brigade in this war." Then John stood up saluted the generals and premiers and then said so everyone could hear, "A mari usque ad mare.", then he walked off the dais and out the room.
November 23, 9:45
A total of 150 Surface Warships, 120 Oscar-class subs, and 2 Nimitz carriers floated upon the vast dark ocean. The moon light gleamed upon the ocean's surface and the sides of the ships. Upon one the decks of the Davidson Dreadnought stood Admiral Gold with two sailors, a hand, and S.Lt. Jefferson-Page standing behind him. Admiral Gold shooed the hand and sailors away and then he stood with his back to S.Lt. Jefferson-Page and said, "From sea to sea we travel just fight and kill. People have always fought against us or started the conflict but now it's our time to be the aggressors. We will conquer Taeshan, that is obvious. But who else will we need to kill to win Taeshans land. I'm afraid to ask. I heard that the Hegemony might attack us during this war." "Sir if so, I hope to god President Batther kills that scum."

OOC: A much more satisfactory first post! I like it.
Official Message to the Nation of Greston:
The Intelligence Agencies in The Allied States of The Royal Code have brought the attention of such aggressive actions being carried out by the armed forces of Greston to the attention of Royal High Command. The ASRC wishes to inquire as to why this conflict has broken out, with motives and physical data provided. /END.

Bulgorian high command was called overnight to discuss this matter.The situation is out of control.These two nations are begging war.
After hours of talking,and hundreds of empty vodka bottles ,BHC and BNA have decided.
We will send a peace core.To help the civilians,overcome this disaster.
We need the approval of every nation thats fighting in this war.
May this madness end soon.
OOC: Everyone forget about the TG me for entry thing.
IC:
To Intelligence Agencies of The Allied States of The Royal Code,
We have started this war to expand our nation "from sea to sea", you can say, as that is our motto. The nation of Taeshan aksed to the world for war and we are the bringers or it.
End of Message.
To Bulgorian High Command,
We do not agree to having the peace corps come here, because if your men are to die another war will come of it, much like the Social States Union battle that happened just because one of their medics died. If hostilities are to calm down for a while we agree.

The Royal Parliament in Canalive City was in a bustle that afternoon, as the votes would be casted for war with Greston. Taeshan, and the expainsonalist of Greston brought the subject under fire, as many were questioning where as to take actions against Greston, or not. The 500 members were alive with chatting, and the meeting was about to come into sesion.
"Order, Order!" yelled the parliament leader.
All of the current conversations were hushed, and all the attention was held on the parliament leader.
"Today, we are voting on helping Taeshan, and whether or not to stop Greston from expanding overseas into islands, territories, and colonies. Our current colonies, Martaniqua, Santo Lomar, New Providence, Pasquan de Norte, Illio Can Calcontire, Santula Harbour, and the new colony of Ranzingten, would all need to be fortified inorder for this expansionalism to stop dead in its tracks. We possibly can recieve aid from other countrys, as the nation of Lord Sumguy will most likely come to our aid. So, now we must vote....." he explained.
"You may cast your votes..." he announced.
On the electronic board, the green, red, and white bulbs were starting to lite up, and after everyone was done voting, it would be tallied.
There were lots of green bulbs lit, a decent amount of reds, and a few whites, the final tally came out to 285 yes, 147 no, 78 abstained, it was decided, war it was...

Greston, how do we suppose who has the upper hand if you don't use Calculators. You can't just decide that you are going to win because you have a larger population. But i have a stronger GDP, Economy and Defence Budget!
Hearing the News of total ignorance from the Hogs also known as Greston the Premier Concile called for his Defence Minister Richard Eirsi
"Tell him to deploy out BETA 1 & 2 Divisions Frijik, we'll have 5 other Divisions of ZETA Class ready for deployment. I don't see how Greston can be so confident!"
"Yes Sir!" the Assistant Replied.

'We are approaching the Tashanen coast, sir." The admiral nodded and said, "Shoot the partiots." "Sir, yes sir." replied the sailor and he sent out the orders through the ship. Six minutes later the men were at their stations and awaited the admirals orders.
"Fire." and then the ship produced over 200 patriots which were aimed for the coast of Taeshan. Earlier today the nation of Taeshan had given Greston some land from a nation by the name of Tashaet. But still the troops were already sent, why pull out now without even killing one Taeshanen. After Admiral Gold's ship had fired the patriots, so did his other 49 ships in the fleet, making the amount of patriot soaring towards the coast of Taeshan from 200 to 10,000 in less then ten minutes. Admiral Morgan and Admiral Merry's Fleets would fire after Admiral Gold's hit surface.

OOC: there are other factors besides tax rate to consider. For example, my GDP per capita is more than seven times yours, giving me far more money per percentage of tax rate than you. In fact, my total budget is only slightly smaller than yours. Seriously though, it is almost impossible to give an accurate budget without using a claculator for at least part of it.

"It looks like the patriots have touched ground, Parle casualties?" said Admiral Gold with an anxious tone. The sailor replied, "Unknown sir, I don't even no how many of the missles hit, all I know is that at least some of them have hit." "Good, wire me to Merry's ship." "Sir, yes sir." S.Pt. Parle handed Admiral Gold the transmission devise, after he had wired the line to Admiral Merry and Admiral Morgan's ships. "Sirs, my patriots have landed it's now yhour turn." "Aye aye." replied Morgan, and then his men who had been ready to fire since after Gold's 200th misslie was fired, they then fired, all 50 ships, and then another volley of 10,000 patriots soared towards Taeshan.

bump for Taeshan to make a reply to both of my volleys, and also, please no more OOC posts relating to someones GDP, their budget, and their tax rate.
bump for Taeshan to reply to the 20,000 patriots being shot at his border
i um dont have any borders non of the 8 islands are connected to anything.anyways.
The navy sent there air craft carriers to fight of the incoming grestonians while the air force bombed the incoming fleets and the army sent there maximum range firecrockets at the greston navies
OOC: the borders would be the end of the islands, and how many died and what is happening from the other 10,000 incoming ones.
IC:
Oscar-class submarine,Beloworv
S.Lt. Thompson was looking out of the scope watching the incoming aircraft carriers. He stepped down from the steps and walked over to the RADAR systems and stood over the operators. "They are sending in whales to kill sharks. Let's blow this half witted fucks into Ariel! Men to stations!" as he finished his command the men went into the torperdo rooms, a few minutes later all of the chambers were full and ready to be fired. There was only 10 air craft carriers and there was 60 submarines. And if the subs didn't do the job there was 150 battleships. S.Lt. Thompson sent relayed a message to the other subs to surround the whales, and on three to fire 20 torpedos. They did as they were told then another message was relayed, FIRE, and then in short intervals each sub fired 20 torperdos, make over 1,200 torpedos being shot. That made roughly about 120 torpedos per carrier, which would mean certain death, most ships can't stand more then five so multiply that by 24, then think of those statistics.
Above sea level
Admiral Gold stood upon the deck of his ship and laughed wildly was he watched the fires envelope on the coast. As he did this a plane dropped a bomb upon the deck of his not so lucky fellow navy men, Admiral Ghilock. The bomb ripped off an entire top section and set the control room a blaze. Admiral Gold responded by letting out millions of machine gun rounds at any plane that came close enough to reach. The rest of his fleet did the same, a few vessels loaded the patriots again and shot a few at some of the carriers.
bump for Taeshan to reply the by now sunken aircraft carriers, his shot down planes, and still the 20,000 patriots that were shot at his border

The Prime Minister hearing the news of aid to Taeshan had to put the Coronation Party of HM Queen Alessandra I on hold.
The Prime Minister briskly walked across the shining marble surface that graced the floor of 14 Eile Street (Residence of the Prime Minister)
"Janet!" He called to his head receptionist,
"Get me on the phone to John Williams."
"The Defence Minister, sir!?" she replied rather alarmed
"Yes, it's about Greston."
She sat down to the phone and starting dialling,
"You should put the cabinet on speed dial" Mr Laing smirked
"Ah! John, this is important" Mr Laing walked back to his office gesturing a thumbs up sign to his assistant.
The Office door closed behind him,
"Taeshani Forces have given us responsibility of there defence!"
"That's a good thing right!?" replied the suprised Defence Minister
"Yes, i want you to deploy 40,000 troops to begin with. We want 5,000 to help the Taeshani Troops at the border and the other 35,000 to drop back and settle in the nearest city."
"Yes Sir!" replied the Minister as Mr Laing put down the phone
This RP Timing
1 RL Hour = 1 NS Hour
OOC- My Troops should arrive in One Hour. We will use fluid time in the conflict do you agree?
OOC: every RL half hour wil be one NS hour, and how will you get to his nation when we currently surround his borders. To use naval transports you would have to get past my three fleets. I currently have water superiorority, if you were to fly over us we could just shoot off AA guns at them, and there is about 30 per ship, with 150 ships you wouldn't have a chance. Also since we own the waters, and his entire nation is of 8 islands you can't cut througgh a shared border. He's stuck, and he meant that you play as him.

The Prime Minister walked into his office and immediately got into contact with the General of the Taeshani forces.
I want you to send more troops (but leave some other spare troops) to the weakest part of the fleet without breaking the defensive line. Then if they re-inforce that area other parts of the line should be weak which means you can get the artillery and blow a hole in that line of ships. Try not to break the defensive line and if we can get through things may look up for Taeshan.
The Troops were told to do just that with the spare Artillery and Infantry units in one of the Defencive Towns. They re-inforce the defensive line on the east (Hidden) firing at ships with Artillery and a small Infantry Division eager to start blasting them.
Im in Commerce heirton the closest port city to the surrounding greston forces. Well 10,000 people have died from incoming missles, but the flag is still ours. We have sent out word to solenial to run our defese the city is being evacuated to ying jing. God save thee. The air forces bombing squadron has come back and been givin royal blues(read alex rider snakehead)and sent them to implode the greston navy and make way for solenials navy.
"They're battering the east side of Morgans fleet, 4 dead already," said Admiral Gold to the ships operator, he told him to send four of our own ships from this and help Morgans fleet.
"Fire the patriots again, they got artillary over 'ere." ordered Admiral Morgan to his ships crew. They prepared the patriots and fired 9,200 patriots them selves upon the area where the artillary came from. The front of the fleet started shooting deck guns at coast whenever the saw the smallesst hint of life. The artillary kept on, but less relentlessly and then Admiral Morgan, and Admiral Merry had their fleets clear a path and then the two Nimitz went through the path to land on the coast. The two fleets kept on shooting volleys of patriots at the coast so the Nimitz could get through smoothly. They did get to it with little interference and they landed and let off four-thousand men. The men marched to the area where the were being fired upon so they could take out the artillary and then the navy could step onto the coast and claim it.

The Artillery were told to back down and let the Opposing Navy into the Port down by the Abandoned Coastal Town. The Fight was to take place later and the Artillery were required to save as much equipment as possible.
Meanwhile the furthest north of the PDFMS Rejuti Islands, 60 miles south of Taeshani Waters, was the waiting place of the Solen Navy and Army. All they needed to do was secure their troops on Taeshan Land and then Soolenial could bring in the Airforce.
The RSAF (Royal Solenial Air Force) wass widely known for its size and the biggest branch of the Solen Military. Bringing in Huge Fighters at the moment would be pointless but for the small Choppers and Shooter deployed on ships they could go for a swift attack on the naval force not to far north.
The Solen Military have been told that with fighting a war so close to home that a Majority of the Military should stay on homeland making sure that Solenial is Primarily Protected (no offence Taeshan). With Taeshani Land Forces fighting on Taeshani Land and the Ashweren Navy to the North it was vital for the RSAF to help with the advantage.
200 SF-15 Fighter Jets were sent round far out of sight from Taeshan around to Ashweren (to the North) and were told to be laced on Ashweren Transporters were the RSAF can approach Taeshan from North and South.
As the Taeshani Artillery backed down the Harbour and Town were left to the taking but the Taeshani Defensive line was still strong just miles of the new potential Grestonian Stronghold.
OOC- Where is your Navy at the moment?
"Secure the city, and raise the flag, this port is now ours." the sodiers did their job and lifted up the flag.Upon the Nimitz B-2 bombers were running off the air way to bomb the evacuating artillary.
"Blue One, above destination."
"Blue Two, hear you loud and clear, drop the napalm."
"Got it, over."
The first B-2 flew above the the artillary as it ran away from its position and they dropped the napalm upon them and turned to land back on the Nimitz.
"They must have forgotten our plan. They are enforcing the inner part of the nation, but that is the landing point of the ICBM strike they are in the palms of our hands."
Solenial
21-11-2007, 22:13
The Prime Minister shuddered.... Napalm, ICBM's!? When they threatened us with Geurilla war tactics he never thought of this.
"Richard!" The Prime Minister shouted to his Assistant,
"Yes Sir"
"I want Operation Drake put into action, i then want anti warhead artillery stationed to try and take out any oncoming fire."
"Yes Sir"
As the Harbour filled up with Grestonian Naval Vessels, an empty ship sailed into harbour. Little should the enemy know that a bomb was attatched. As it approached other ships it exploded covering the harbour in flames. Meanwhile ships carrying 40,000 Infantry, Artillary and Medical troops got to the scene where Taeshani Artillery lay dying.
SF-15 Fighter jets were straight on call and a whole fleet started firing at the Grestonian Navy. A force of 500 Fighter Jets with Warehouses totalling around doubling that back in Solenial.
The Planes mainly focused on the Naval Force by the South which should of already been weakened by Operation Drake.
EDIT: OOC- Despite my disgust of Nuclear Weaponry, i wouldn't use Nuclear Weaponry to invade a country. I wouldn't want a colony thats all Nuclear Fallout.
OOC: you are really under estimating me, operation drake wouldn't do that much dammage to my naval fleets, and I currently own the surrounding waters you couldn't land the medic, so right now the artillary will burn unless you air force puts a large dent in the fleet. Also if you read the first post you would notice that one day after we land, which we did today, 1,000 Irondecks would come and acompany the ships already there, so you guys are screwed.
"Use the AAs they have taken out 4 more ships!" screamed Admiral Morgan as two ships next to him went up in flames.On the Nimitz airways the ships crew were singling the fighter to go all 180 planes from each ship got off, they were all F-15 Eagles. The F-15s flew up and they were among the 500 Solenial fighters. Some fighters let out entire belts at a time of M6 Vulcan machine gun bullets at groups of enemy aircraft. The landed infantry set up some AA guns and started firing those at the enemy aircrafts. The Solenial planes were being hit from the navy AAs the Infantry AAs and AFs from enemy planes. Soon those 500 fighters would end up in the ocean along with the Taeshani carriers.

The Fighters returned fire with SOLHEAT Warheads down to the Ships below. The Planes using swift attacks and using the advantage of long range shots.
Meanwhile, 500 other Fighters and 1000 Choppers were located on a northerly island ready to destroy the re-inforcing Irondecks. If they one the battle, they were to head back to Taeshan and stregnthen the Air Force to the South.

OOC: I don't think I can reply my damages, I searched SOLHEAT on these forums and the only thread that came up was this one, then I searched SOLHEAT on wiki and nothing came up at all, then I searched SF-15 and this was the only thread that showed and still nothing when I searched it on wiki, I think you made them up. IF you made them up I can't accurately tell you how many died.
IC:
"SOLHEATs!" screamed a S.Pt. as his ship was lit aflame from the warhead. "Deploy decoys! Shoot them down, we can't have any more losses!" as many ships that could deployed decoys which ended up destroyed from the SOLHEAT missiles. They shot AA guns, and patriots and whatever else they had to take down the missiles before they took half of the fleet down. By the time the time they actually hit, only twenty missiles made it to their targets, taking out two from Gold's fleet, one from Merry's fleet, and four from Morgan's fleet. Very little losses compared to the enemy losses. They started up with the AA guns again upon the enemy pilots, sixteen planes from from over 14,000 rounds of AA missiles it the crappiest lose I've ever heard of.
"Moving in, one, two, three, go! Good luck babies." said the pilot of one of the F-15 as he fired two AIM-120 AMRAAMs at the nearest enemy aircraft. One F-15 knowing that they had an higher altitude then the SF-15s went up to the higher altitude and then came back down with the nose of the plane diagnoly facing the water and he fired a AIM-9 Sidewinder at every Sf-15 that he saw. One AIM-9 Sidewinder went right through the cockpit killing the pilot instantly and sending the plane spiraling to the ground.
Grestonian AFB, Greston
"Go, go, go." signaled the airstationworkers to the pilots as they sent over 1,000 F-15 Eagles, 700 F-22s, 280 Apache attack helicopers, and 20 B-2 bombers to escort the network of 1,000 Irondecks.
OOC: Why no more asking, if you don't give a number yu can practically godmod having anything you want and we can't check if it is realistic or not because we don't even know what percent of your budget is defense.
SOLHEAT probably means Solenial HEAT. Probably regular HEATs.
IC:
President David Aposon woke up and turned on his television. He flipped to UBC News and there was a story on the Greston-PI war. Greston wasn't a rich nation but it wasn't a poor nation either. Uir economic experts rated his economy at the level of 'Good' compared to the 'Powerhouse' of Solenial and 'Frightening' of Uiri (OOC: yes, my economy is at Frightening). The personal income tax rate was between 50 and 60% but there could be other taxes like VAT and corporate income tax.
David decided to monitor how the war was doing but not to intervene yet. Greston had a population which was 20 million larger than Uiri, not as big a difference as it used to make in the days of Edward Forgul's first term. Uiri had just over 1,309,190 pilots and 1,314,094 seamen. Land troops could only reach through beachhead and so weren't much use in this case but Uiri had 1,294,480 of them. The divisions were relatively equal and the distortions were normal for an island nation.
David phoned Defence Minister Dan Hujiko, 222-0198-0024,(conversation translated from Uir) "Dan? It's David. Have you herd about Greston?"
"Yes, what is your point? Should I phone the Prime Minister?"
"No, not yet. I don't think Greston will make it into the region deep enough to target Uiri yet. Have Sea and Air on stand-by."
"Will do, sir," Dan answered. David and Dan hung up at the same time. Dan dialed a military number next. It was surprising that David phoned his home phone. 924-36794. Military personnel numbers were a lot shorter.
"Hello? Seamen 36794 speaking," a Rear Admiral spoke into the phone.
"Jak, be on standby to go to Solenial, Greston is attacking there," the Defence minister ordered.
"Will do, sir," the Rear Admiral replied.
Dan hung up and called another number, 926-83725.
"Hello, Pilot 83725 speaking," a Air Brigadier General said sleepishly.
"Do you know about Greston? You're on standby to go to Solenial to fight against Greston."
"Kay," the Air Brigadier General said and went back to sleep. An Air Majour came up to the higher-ranking pilot and asked, "Who was that?"
"Defence Minister Dan. We're on standby to fight Greston in Solenial."
"Oh. Shouldn't we get ready?"
"Yeah."
OOC: I answered him on page two, that is why I told him to read it.

The network of 1,000 Irondecks floated upon the ocean in 2 lines of 500, with 1,000 F-15 Eagles flying above, 700 F-22s were bringing up the rear. The 280 Apaches flew level to the decks of the Irondeck dreadnoughts. The 20 B-2 bombers were 20 miles ahead of the fleet and airfleet, the bombers were seeking out any enemy targets waiting to take them out.
OOC: OK, what number have you come up with?
bump, Solenia, the B-2s will be passing your aircrafts about now, with my fleet about 20 miles behind them, post seeing them and attacking them or what ever you want to do.
OOC: Also, I would like the new death list from my counter-counter attack, I fired AA from the ground and sea, and yet again I had my planes shoot you guys up, read the post above Uiri's first to see what happened.
