"These Disputed Territories..." RP. (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=542839)

I would just like to point out that the Corban river delta IS in Northern Exurbean-held territory. Notice they invaded across the river into southern exurbea. This has somewhat complicated my tally on the political stance of participating nations

Yes, Lost Hills has chosen to not enter South Exurbea and stay in the North for now. Political reasons, no offensive war, blah blah.

What's the lineup so far?

Edit: Technology

Force strength:

Naval
1x Chancellor-class CVBN
3x Lord-class LHD
2x King Henry V-class BBGN
3x Treaty-class BBGN
7x Princess-class CBGN
10x Morrigan-class CGN
14x County-class DDG (AD)
13x City-class DDG (AS)
23X Bullfinch-class FFH
12x Bloch-class SSN
10x Paramount-class ADV
Assorted transports and support vessels numbering no more than 30

Land
156x Arca IV Nakil MBT
237x Arca. II LBT
380x Arica. I APC
113x SOV.17 IFV
~12k Marines equipped with DR-83M variants and armor suits
Various field guns, transports, etc.

Air
Squadrons of TF-62B Sparrow multipurpose fighters and TAS-620B air superiority fighters. CSA-E AWACS and CSA-C/W support aircraft as well. MV-24 Peregrine canard-rotor wing transport aircraft.

.

Important: Everyone using custom equipment, please provide links to each design, or at least brief descriptions.


A brief description would include:
1. What is it.
2. Weight or tonnage.
3. Weapon used (if applicable).

Though complete designs are preferable.

My manpower will be 100,000.

I've been discussing with NAS reduction in force. We have to level it a little to reduce South advantage.
I think it would also be easiest for you (Royal Code) to lower the manpower, since you have to play for three forces at once anyway.


P.S. Since the IC thread hasn't been referenced in the 1st post.

So, Lost Hills, you're on the North side then?

Everybody make sure you're very clear on where you stand politically and Militarily so i can keep an accurate tally.

Do you guys like the reference in the 1st post on the RP thread? I think it's cool having a roster. =]

Royal Army Gear:
2,000 Behemoth III's (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11369844&postcount=3397)
5,000 Behemoth II's. (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=9572471&postcount=274)
Reference my sig for our artillery systems.
Most everything else we use is either RL, or of DMG origin. Tanks and artillery are pretty big parts of land warfare, so i figured i'd make those two clear.

So, Lost Hills, you're on the North side then?


Yep. We'll actually invade the South only if the North's armies get horribly crushed, which we expect will happen.

12k is our preliminary troop count. It will probably increase and max out at ~150k as the situation gets more dire for our forces :)

Ok then. Thanks. I'm sure londim will appreciate it. Given the situation, with the north having the upper hand right now in both manpower and territory, it should make for a great RP.

Excellent. Another ally in this war. As you can see I'm trying to secure the sea around North Exurbea for seemingly obvious reasons.

Ha, yeah, hard to enter a war by sea if you cant get to the beach.

And with mountains to the south, it would be a hike to get into the low lands.

And i'm to the west so... they'd have to clear it by me to enter thru my oceanside (which is assumed to be very far away) and cross over my entire country. =P

Londim, did you check the stats up on 1st post on the RP thread? I graced the N.E.'s with quite a bit for you guys to tool around with.

Ahh but who said I was going to land any troops yet? The 3rd Fleet does not transport troops. They are used for one thing only and thats battle.

Some questions to RC.

1. Am I right in assuming the terrain is classic forests and plains? If not, give some picture or decription.

2. About the map, I think it needs more detail, *and be in .gif format, or .png, but not jpeg!* It's nearly unreadable now.



To Londim:

What exactly ships do you use?
Also, could you point the group location on the map or describe it?

Would you have objections to having a naval battle?


As to IC:
The combat units of the 133 and 132 Wings are to arrive in a couple hours, just awaiting orders nearby.

These two wings, combined as ~80,000 total personnel - ship crews are included, particularly including transport and logistics vessel crews - will be the main force.
There's also the 4th Wing (Paul is from there) monitoring them, which will not normally be deployed; however, 4th Wing units might take part in small covert ops. Maybe up to 500 men at a time, more probably 50-200. Maybe none at all.
Ground forces count as it stands is less than 30,000, but that doesn't include air force.


Additionally there will be a humanitarian force deployed under a different flag. I'll try to talk with Red Crystal or how is our Red Cross analog named, or otherwise they'll go under UFAN flag. It will consist of 18th, 81, 82, 83 and 84 wings. They will not work with my forces, so don't count them towards my troops. These forces won't take part in combat, and attacking them would be a war crime.
This force will be involved in evacuation of the civilians from combat zones (assuming they want it, and I guess a lot will, or what else should they do) and medical aid. It counts at 250,000 personnel, 750,000 maximum capacity, 150,000 fully equipped beds. 18th Wing has state of the art medical equipment, capable of all things the advanced medicine of Vault 10 has to offer, up to controlled prosthesis operations, and is equipped with all necessary supplies.
While primarily sent for civilians, all conflict participants may use the facilities assuming there is room.



Some info on my forces.

Note that in Aerospace Logistics NDD there are no separate branches, all fleets and ground troops formally subordinate to NDD Air Force wings. One wing is usually 40,000 strong, with 60,000 maximum mobilized capacity. All wings are deployed as dry, but might be later reinforced by local troops if agreed and deemed necessary.

Wing numbers aren't arbitrary: ones with lower numbers are stronger. Particularly, 130s are newer regular troops. They're still highly trained by general standards, having 2 years of training, and some combat operations in our civil war, but not large-scale real combat. Most 40-70 have serious combat experience and are serving for to 3-5 years, lower numbers are all veterans with more years and major wars. Units *8 and 8* are medical corps. Usually unit strength scale is maintained by shifting personnel, although major defeats or victories where skill was shown sometimes switch the entire wings' numbers.

The first 7 are all spec ops, and elite of spec ops. Real elite. All combat personnel has over five kills, explicitly attributable to their skills, or for non-combat, five high-risk missions such as medevac under intense fire, and logistics/maintenance are formed of the most skilled personnel. No privates, starts from sergeants, they use different equipment (and with reserve). So 4th Wing is worth more as a unit than my other deployed forces combined. But it's not a frontline unit, it's like Spetsnaz, dedicated special operations forces, a notch above all others. Hence deployment numbers below 1000, and of course no tanks or stuff like that.

Battleships follow the design of the USS Wisconsin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Wisconsin_%28BB-64%29)

The fleet is currently located 5 miles west of the northern most estuary of the river. And I wouldn't mind a naval battle.

The fleet is currently located 5 miles west of the northern most estuaryof the river. And I wouldn't mind a naval battle.

Our task force is currently 50nm off the eastern coast. Sea battle would be fine.

Well, my naval forces weren't intended to play a decisive battle, so I'm going to have to settle with a patrolling role. Unless I reinforce heavily or land on Royal Code soil, I don't believe that I'd be able to even deploy any ground forces.

Londim, none of your links worked for me, and i dont think it's an issue on my end. Double check maybeh?

They should be working now. Just a typo in the url.

The thread's growin lonely guys =]

Is everyone asleep or what? Act!

I will respond as action begins, but I won't make the first shot in this war. IC reasons.

Sorry been working for the last couple of days. Had no time.
