OOC: oops.. LOL.. ok... honest mistake :headbang:
Invasion Day
11 HOURS, 21 MINUTES
Philippiniada Troops suffered greatly from napalm bombs, this was countered by deploying more SAM's to destroy Greal Bombers, the Imperial Artillery Corps outside the cities pounded Greal Posistions all over the cities, Apache Groups performed strafe attacks on heavy troop concentrations, mines were now utilized, Propaganda is airing all over the cities, some of this are true, a lot of them are false, examples of false propaganda sent by Philippiniada is the North American Strike at the Bering Coast, and Greal Forces there are taking heavy losses,
Casualties
1590 Troops Killed
1980+ wounded
251 Imperial Crusader tanks destroyed
141 FV1o1 Light Tank destroyed
34 Leopards Destroyed
440 planes destroyed(all)

OOC: Just a reminder: everything that happens inside the executive house is secret, mmmkay? Pretend you don't know it.
Executive House
New York City, HCT
Day 2 17:12 UTC (Day 2 12:12 EST)
"We had just released a statement to the press, sir," Press Secretary Bruno Gradler told the President as he met him in the corridor. He was rushing to a meeting, a meeting that could decide the history of the world and their nation.
"Thank you, Bruno," the President said as he opened the door to the conference room. As he entered, everyone in the room stood up and saluted. Hendrickson returned their salute and sat at the head of the table. All of the highest-ranking military officers were there. To the President's left sat presidential chief-of-staff Chuck Jurney, and to his right was Defense Secretary Bryan Sommerfeld and Armed Forces Chief-of-Staff General Étienne Charbonneau. The Army was represented by Army Chief General Cedric Hempstead; and the chiefs of some of the army districts: General Frédéric Letelier, chief of the UNAArmy of the East; General Derrick Thornton of the UNAA of the Center; and General Paul Garza of the UNAA of the Gulf. The other generals joined them from via videoconference. Navy chief Admiral Jerome Lockheart also attended with Admiral Kyle Kidder of the UNANavy of the Atlantic and Admiral Simon Stinett of the UNAN of the Pacific. The two other Admirals also joined them in a videoconference. The Air Force sent in Air Force chief General Bartram Templeton and all of the air force chiefs of the groups, except General Benoît Thibaux of the UNAAir Force Group East.
"I know you know that Congress had declared war on Greal, that why I called this meeting," the President began, "and we are here to plan our strategies. I know that before I came I believe you had discussed strategies."
"Yes, Mr. President," Defense Secretary Sommerfeld said. "General Charbonneau has a plan."

Oh, and Shakal, if you want to, we can buzz through the encircled troops, not RP that bit and just post casualty lists? Obviously I didn't expect much from them, it's bows and arrows against the lightning almost)
Kalmurstan Government News Update - A Message from the President
The enemies of our fine nation have violated its virgin soil. They have raped our land with their bombs. They have killed your fellow countrymen. They descend on out nation like locusts, swarming off their ships and across our fields and forests, burning villages as they go. This cannot be allowed! Whilst our fighting men and women stand steadfast against the tide of oppression that tries to spread across our land, we must all remember that every one of us can play a part in our enemy's defeat. Deny our enemy food from your stores. Deny them shelter in your homes. Deny them transport in your vehicles. Deny them your local knowledge. But most of all, deny them your country.
President Tblis' Office, Lanjsk
Opposite the president sat a young lieutenant with a leather-backed folder containing various lists, details and statistics
"Mr President, as we speak, more troops are pouring into the city. The entire fifty-first Arctic Wolves regiment is already in the city and setting up defensive positions, as are the sixty-first, hundred-thirteenth and two-fortieth Light Infantry regiments, the twenty-fifth and what's left of the hundred-fortieth Mechanised and the hundred-forty-sixth Armoured regiments."
"In addition to that?" Viktor spoke softly. Sitting behind his desk, in full military regalia, he looked almost like the portrait of himself that hung on his wall. Almost. He was some ten years older now, the lines and wrinkles had spread and deepened, and his eyes carrier dark, shadowy bags under them. He hadn't slept much since war broke out in Europe, and he didn't image getting much now his own country was at war.
"In addition to that, we have the fifty-third Arctic Wolves being redirected from Dakial to here, along with a further armoured regiment, two armoured infantry regiments and another light infantry regiment. That's what we have confirmed, obviously we're working on the logistics of increasing the current strength." The young lieutenant shuffled through his papers, almost in anticipation of the presidents next question
"Which is?" Viktor tapped his pen on the top of his desk, not much enjoying the long list of unit names and numbers. He was a man who let others worry about the little things, all he needed was an overview.
"Currently our ground forces in the city will total some eight-thousand, six-hundred and forty men, nine-hundred and eighty-four vehicles and twenty-four rotary-wing aircraft."
The president nodded in approval "How about our airforce?"
"We've requested extra tactical bombers be transferred to Lanjsk in preparation for the enemy thrust, along with several fighter groups to provide cover. We can also rely on support from our aircraft based in Kraskolm, Omnom and, possibly, Dakial. We also have eight Tupolev Bear bombers on high alert at Odansk, and four Tupolev Backfire bombers ready at Novanta."
"What are their loads?"
"All purely conventional, a mixture of Kitchen, Kickback and Kent air to surface missiles." The lieutenant needn't have mentioned they were conventional. The government had only limited chemical weapons, and they were all stored miles away, in various bunkers. It would take days to arrange a strike using them, and the government had already voiced its opposition to their use on home soil.
"Will the weather be in our favour during the enemy's attack?" Viktor glanced out of the window behind him. It was an overcast day, and that meant there was the chance of snow, if the temperature allowed.
"We're experiencing a warmer spell than normal, however our meteorologists predict a sharp drop in temperatures in the next few days. It is expected that temperature will fall below minus ten degrees Celsius by weekend. Hopefully, that will slow them down."
"Are the enemy prepared for such conditions?"
"I can't say for sure, we have no intelligence with regards to their equipment at this time."
"What if our defences here fail?" Even now the president realised the answer was retreat further if they couldn't hold the city, but he was still looking for another way.
"Then we have to consider a strategic retreat to the southern island. Depending on Shakal's motivation for invading our nation, they may not pursue us once they control the mainland, and we could therefore launch a counter-attack when the conditions are more favourable."
"Fine. Have my plane ready to depart in one hour, I fear it is time for us to govern our people from a different city." Viktor picked up the phone on his desk and began dialling. "Hi Kira, it's daddy, is mummy there?"

The radio on the secure transmission then turned to life. "Avalanche control center, this is Rear Adm. Deutchendorf aboard UNANS Greater Alaska. We are now ready, over."
"This is General Étienne Charbonneau," he replied, and the radio operator turned on the secure radio connections to the other groups. "Group A is now in position. Start the attack. Password: Snowball."
Emmerican
24-01-2008, 18:41
The Emmerican troops had just been given word of the UNAS newly formed alliance with phillipindia. In doing so the Emmerican government have taken drastic measures.
"Are the logistic lines on the beachhead secured." The commander sat in his underground bunker slowly there time on the offensive would be taken away from them. He rolled his eyes on the young officer in front of him and took the document out of his hand.
"Yes sir, we have a total of 30,000 troops including engineers being deployed as we speak, as much as we can assault via land, 1000 leopard II are being deployed and finally sir we have that big order of tear gas set up and the parachute regiments are all on standby. We can deploy within 2 hours at any location in phillipindia. The LMN are on standby in case things go sour as well, just fresh from there training using the new upgraded OICW, which I should add they find superb. We are going to hit them hard, thanks to that good old senate pulling there finger out we have 2 B-2 bombers ready to bomb any location." He paused and took a deep breath.
'looks like we are going all out.' The commander thought, he turned and the officer started again.
"The AC-130 are all on standby, if you don't mind me saying sir, I think it is time we hit those bastards hard, I think we should blitz past the rest of there forces and attack there government building, or the capital."
The commander smiled with glee, it should be the man in front of him in his seat right now. "You have full control general, lets see how well you do."
*On the beachhead*
The clouds were like a blanket on the night sky, covering each piece of space. The troops moved forward, they had there orders. Most of the army was here, humping ground and looking at the fly-boys flying through the sky.
"This is B-2, we are ready for take off, over and out." The stealth fights slowly took off the single plane carrier and headed towards the phillipindia capital, clearing the way for the big bombers.
OCC: not godmodding I hope, seeing as phillipindia hasn’t role-played any I’m going to say he hasn’t noticed my forces :)
[i](OOC: Oh, and Shakal, if you want to, we can buzz through the encircled troops, not RP that bit and just post casualty lists? Obviously I didn't expect much from them, it's bows and arrows against the lightning almost)
OOC:Thats fine. I was going to say the same. If the numbers dont seem fair to you tell me and I will modify them. (Within reason of course)
IC:
Shakal Spearheads
"Sir, the advance is proceeding well, no real resistance has yet been met. We guess the enemy is gathering strength at there capital for a defence." The aide spoke quickly and to the point.
"Send three divisions to take the city." Derrick began as he looked at the map of Kalmurstan. "Keep the IGG with us, send the 6. Marine southwards to help secure more ports."
"Yes sir." The aide said writing the information on his touch pad screen.
"The main secondary thrust will push to the east coast straight on and spread from there. In the mean time the 7. Panscrier and our IGG will pursue a secondary objective that I do not plan to disclose as of yet." The numbers were spreading now, sixty thousand men towards the enemy capital. The men that clinched the encircled pocket numbering around nineteen thousand nine hundred would be heading south. Only eight thousand would be under Derrick's banner. And aside form the fourty thousand men assigned to flank guard and beachhead security that left roughly one hundred fourty thousand men that would speed towards the east coast splitting the country in half. Of course by the time it actually reached the coast the numbers would be dimished by leaving flank guards to just a single division.

INVASION DAY
11 HOURS, 12 MINUTES
EMDEN COAST
The winds are devastating, the soldiers have no choice but to sit there and wait for a unlikely invasion but General Taniada insist that they stay there, Thunder and Lightning is making life difficult for the soldiers. they have received news that Greal has broken through the Defensive Line and besieged several cities, but morale in the Emden Coast has continued to be strong, thanks to the brutal training of the IAFP,
Radar has not shown any enemies for the last 11 Hours, they thought wrong, 3 miles north, Emmerican Invasion Forces are forming, waiting for the right time to strike. thunder then rumbled again, Radar lighted up small dots moving towards them, Pvt. Wilkins noticed that.
"What the...." Wilkins is shocked
"Captain!, Captain!" Wilkins hurriedly called the nearby superior
"What is it?!" Captain Linoan said frustatingly
"Captain!. You better take a look at this!"
"This better be good Private"
The Captain then looked at the radar, but he is not shocked, he expected this to happen,
"Private, you saved this whole Defense Force, probably, the whole Philippiniada"
the Captain then ordered Code:Red, alarm then sounded, the tanks and troops took up defensive posistions at the bunkers and pillboxes, trenches are loaded up with troops, tank traps and barbed wires are ahead of trenches, this is sure to slow down their advance
the Artillery Corps then deployed the Deathbringers, then barraged the Emden Coast with all they have got,

Command Bunker Alpha-One, Lanjsk
Most of the military top-brass had already left for the airport, leaving the defence of the city in the capable hands of a selection of Colonels and Generals.
"We expect Shakal to direct much of its force to our city. Whilst it doesn't have much military value, taking it would be a symbolic victory. In addition to Lanjsk, the enemy will most likely move to secure either airfields or ports on the west or south of the nation. At present, our forces are mustering for the defence of Lanjsk and these other strategic strong points." The General paused for a moment as several cities were highlighted on the screen. "Slukgoren, Consun, Kraskolm. Along with Lanjsk, these form our primary line of defence. Obviously, we cannot expect to prevent the enemy penetrating this line, but if we can hold these cities, we have an ability to attack their flanks and rear should they decide to push further south and east without taking these cities."
"And if they do take them?" The voice belonged to a greying army colonel.
"If they succeed in taking these four cities, we fall back as shown." The map altered again, this time showing routes of retreat. "Should the enemy prove extremely resilient, and should the need arise, we are capable of moving men by air and sea to the southern island where we can regroup and prepare a counterattack."
"Where is the Northern Fleet?"
"The Northern and Eastern fleets have combined and are making for the Shakal landing site to, hopefully, cut off their supply lines." The general highlighted an area in the ocean off the northern coastline, drawing a line from that to the enemy landing area, "ETA is within twenty-four hours, although we expect contact before then. It is doubtful that Shakal isn't out looking for them. However, the combined force of our fleets should be more than enough to handle a flotilla of enemy vessels."
"What are our latest casualty figures?"
"They don't make for too good a read, I'm afraid. Much of the fighting so far has not gone our way." The screen changed once more, this time to a list of losses so far.
Vehicles
Tu-95 - Dest: 3 Dam: 1
Su-34 - Dest: 11 Dam: 4
MiG-31 - Dest: 16 Dam: 2
Mi-24 - Dest: 2 Dam: 1
BTR-80 - Dest: 80 Dam: 19 Aban: 13
BTR-70 - Dest: 35 Dam: 3 Aban: 4
Infantry/Crew
514 KIA
331 WIA
219 MIA
A low murmur rumbled through those seated in the control centre. The was had only just started and they had already lost a considerable amount of men. The general clicked back to the map of current deployments.
"Now, these figures do represent a large loss in the early stages of this war, primarily due to a lack of detailed intelligence on the OPFOR, and hasty deployments in the hours following the invasion. Rest assured that this will change as we begin facing the enemy on our own terms."
(OOC: Considering it was HMG fire vs. modern tanks, I'm Ok with your losses. Hope mine are reasonable too.)

The Philippiniada was surprised. they knew that after inflicting many casualties on Greal Forces. it will fall back, that wasn't the case. they have spotted 2 Corps moving in the 3 cities besieged, but this reinforcements are only a handful than they have fought earlier, so, they continued to fight like their ladies has been kidnapped by this Greal onslaught. again Reinforcements arrived from the front, replacing wounded soldiers, this battle was far from over.
Cruise Missiles was a spike in the neck to the Imperial Army, but they must have worn out the Baltic Fleet considering this weather. The Artic Fleet then barraged their counterparts from the Baltic, as this was an insult to them. considering same situations of both fleets. they also fired at Greal Positions at the captured Defense Line. hoping to disrupt logistics.
5 Divisions from the Southern Defense Line then moved up to the Captured Defense Line. in silent speed. 3 Divisions from Kiel Military Base move south, to aid the Regiment from the SDL.
(OOC: hoping this will be a sneak attack. Greal. if you agree. this will be a diversion attack to your logistics chain. and you don't know it until i got there,)

120 F-22 Raptors took off one by one from the aircraft carriers UNAAFS Manicouagan and UNAAFS Baffin. A group of 12 planes started strafing the coastal defenses of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. The other planes unleashed missiles towards the Greal military installations in the city and the area, targeting radar sensors, anti-aircraft installations, communication stations, and Greal planes on the ground.
UNAAS Braithwaite, UNAAS Republican, and several smaller ships homed in an a three-mile stretch of low-lying beach 3 kms southwest of the settlement of Ust-Ketolnoye, 10 kms east of the suburb of Chapayevka. The 161st Infantry Division, 172nd Armored Division, 180th Marine Division, and 2nd Rocky Mountain Army National Guard Unit (2RMANGU) landed on the coast as the sun began to rise. They seized the coastal road and fanned out west towards Chapayevka and north towards Ust-Ketolnoye. UNANS Fentress, UNANS MacKenzie, and UNANS Avalon pounded the coast south of the landing zone, while ships led by the frigate UNANS Brockenbaugh blockaded the bay into Petropavlovsk, firing at menacing ships. Several OH-58D Kiowa Warrior fighter helicopters patrolled the area east of Petropavlovsk, to fire at any Greal troop movements.
UNAAS Trimble and UNAAS Assiniboine were just outside the blockade, landing the 170th Artillery Division, 102nd Marine Division, and the 194th Mountain division on a 1-kilometer beachhead on the south side of the bay. They seized the road leading north to Mokhovaya Rybachiy. Meanwhile, the 187th Airborne Division landed at the small farming settlement of Perevalka, 4.5 kms WSW of the landing zone.

202 F-22 Raptors from the aircraft carriers UNAAFS San Angelo and UNAAFS Cimmaron swarmed into the Vladivostok area, bombing Greal planes on the ground, radar stations, communication installations, and other structures of military importance. One group strafed Ussuriysk, about 100 kilometers north, hitting the city's airfield.
United North American Navy ships led by the battleship UNANS North Prairie blockaded the Peter the Great Bay. Elements from the 186th Airborne Division landed on the towns of Baraki in the island of Ostrov Russkiy and Putyatin in the island of Ostrov Putyatina. the settlements of Reyneke, Popova, and several other offshore islets were seized.
UNAAS McClellan and UNAAS Chautauqua and other ships released the 165th Infantry Division, 169th Artillery Division, 1st Upper California Army National Guard Unit (1UCANGU), and the 190th Mountain Division on the west side of the peninsula containing Nakhodka. Several units of the 1UCANGU moved towards Novolitovsk in the north, while the others seized roads leading to Nakhodka proper.
UNAAFS Defiance led the 100-ship blockade of the deep water port of Nakhodka, with the aircraft carrier being used as a springboard for attacks on military installations of the Nakhodka valley. Planes bombed military ships moored at the Nakhodka docks. Meanwhile, a daring landing involving the UNAAS New Jersey and UNAAS Maryland established a beachhead for the 164th Infantry Division, 179th Marine Division, and 175th Armored Division at the west side of the bay. With support from helicopters and planes, 175th Armored moved to capture the bridge over the Nakhodka River into the northern suburb of Amerikanka.

Planes from UNAAFS Guadalupe flew over the island of Sakhalin, taking down any structures of military or communication importance. With air support from military helicopters, UNAAS Mississauga and UNAAS Champlain landed the 181st Marine Division, 173rd Armored Division, and the 192nd Mountain Division between the settlements of Ay and Starodubskoye. The 173rd Armored and 192nd Mountain moved south, intending to capture the town of Starodubskoye.
To the south, UNAAS Beaverhead and UNAAS Bottineau landed the 1st Rocky Mountain Army National Guard Unit (1RMANGU), 168th Artillery Division and the 162nd Infantry Division, between the mouth of the river and the settlement of Solovyevka, which was easily secured by the 162nd Infantry. With air support from UNAAFS Guadalupe, the 184th Airborne Division seized the towns of Dachnoye and Mitsrevska, north of the landing site and on the road towards Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. The armies pushed north as detached units of the 181st Marine tried to capture the coastal villages of Futarayapachi, Anivaskiy-Ozeretskiy, and Aniva.

Deutchendorf decided to hold off the invasion force as he sent a message to the president of the Autonomous Region:
Greetings!
As of 07:30 local time, the United North American Armed Forces began to destroy the military installations of your occupier, Greal. We assure you that utmost care is being taken by the United North American Forces such that only military installations are being targeted.
The United North American States strongly urges you to join us in the fight against the nation that had been aggressive to your country and my country. As your neighbor, the United North American States is sympathetic to your plight, being forgotten by so far away Sacha. Therefore, I hereby propose that:
1. the United North American Forces be allowed to land and to transit in your country, for the purpose of defeating our aggressive enemy, and
2. destruction of Greal installations within your country.
For our part, we propose that the United North American States shall
1. in no way shall we infringe on your autonomy and independence,
2. in now way cause needless destruction in the country,
3. provide assistance that you might need as a result of the war
We hope that you would accept, preferably within twelve hours. Otherwise, we will be forced to take stronger action.

OCC: Can you role-play some of my bits Phil, as I cant help Greal at all.
The SU-47 engines roared to life, slowly and steadily they glided off the ground.
"This is flight team 1, going to flight teams 1 to 10, prepare to initiate operation: taking back the home front. With most of Emmericans land force navy and air, attacking the flank of Phillipindia, which currently no news had reached the home front, the pilots of the 7th battalion were tasked on defending any of Greals boarder troops from the UNAS attackers. They were saw as neutral on the diplomatic front, but the pilots knew if the UNAS saw them they were going to be shot down. This was to be many of there last flight as they gripped the pictures of loved ones tightly.
"Do not give them one inch of ground, as that is one inch closer to the ones we treasure. Dulce et Decorum Est my brothers." They hit the afterburners and flew towards the sun.
The Philippiniada was surprised. they knew that after inflicting many casualties on Greal Forces. it will fall back, that wasn't the case. they have spotted 2 Corps moving in the 3 cities besieged, but this reinforcements are only a handful than they have fought earlier, so, they continued to fight like their ladies has been kidnapped by this Greal onslaught. again Reinforcements arrived from the front, replacing wounded soldiers, this battle was far from over.
Cruise Missiles was a spike in the neck to the Imperial Army, but they must have worn out the Baltic Fleet considering this weather. The Artic Fleet then barraged their counterparts from the Baltic, as this was an insult to them. considering same situations of both fleets. they also fired at Greal Positions at the captured Defense Line. hoping to disrupt logistics.
5 Divisions from the Southern Defense Line then moved up to the Captured Defense Line. in silent speed. 3 Divisions from Kiel Military Base move south, to aid the Regiment from the SDL.
(OOC: hoping this will be a sneak attack. Greal. if you agree. this will be a diversion attack to your logistics chain. and you don't know it until i got there,)

IC:
Greal trucks were indeed disrupted, so Mainland based cruise missiles were fired at the enemy naval fleet. The Baltic naval fleet suffered 2 Destroyers damaged from the cruise missiles, they responded by firing a hundred more cruise missiles at the enemy fleet and the mainland.
Greal troops continued to fight the enemy, house by house, though enemy resistance was deadly, the Greal troops numbered far more. Artillery was reinforced by more artillery units coming from Womer. Some of the tanks moved into the city, while fighters "covered" the tanks by riddling everything in front of the tanks.

Shakal Flagship S.I.N Samantha
"Sir, we have reports of the enemy fleet heading towards the beachhead." The news was a slight shock to Conners, she knew they would need to gather in strength, but not try to ignore the fact that the Shakal Superdreadnaught was heading at an oblique course in there direction.
"How far away are they? Within missle range?" Conners asked. After a few seconds the response came, it was a simple nod. "Order the ships to send out a bolley of cruise missles in a 1:1 ratio." She finished the order and began to ready for the battle. As she looked out the window missles began to head towards the enemy fleet. The damage from a single volley would be considerable, hopefully it would dissuade them from continueing there suicide run. If all else failed the 30inch main guns of the Samantha would simply make any enemy vessel explode at a range of over 100km.

"I'm picking up several missiles inbound! Activating Kashtan close-in weapons system."
On the deck of the Admiral Kuznetsov Class carrier KNS Kristof Loncar, the CIWS command module began tracking targets, as did similar systems on the other vessels in the fleet.
As the missiles came in range, the anti-missile systems came into action, the Kashtan system first engaging with missiles, then gatling guns. The twenty-seven surface vessels of the combined Northern and Eastern fleets provided a near impervious mesh of fire, destroying the majority of the incoming missiles. Six missiles managed to penetrate the defence, one striking the bow of the Slava class cruiser KNS Omnom, causing the loaded Bazalt missiles to cook off, turning the entire forward half of the vessel into an inferno as the crippled ship began to list.
The second and third missiles both struck Udaloy class destroyers, severely damaging both, whilst the fourth missile hit Ivan Rogov class KNS Valter Shwetz, holing it just above the waterline. The final two missiles both hit Kiev class KNS Viktor Tblis, causing massive damage to the flight-deck and hanger space below.
"Bring all ships vessels to a full stop, keep the boat running, but make sure they're submerged and running quiet. Where are the Kilo's we sent ahead?" The captain glanced at his second in command
"The should be nearing the enemy fleet soon, but are maintaining radio silence, for obvious reasons."
"Good. I want us to hold here for now, lets see what damage two black holes can do amongst the enemy fleet before we make any further moves. Let command know what's going on, and be prepared to get back underway at a moments notice."
The communications officer flicked a switch and adjusted the frequency to that of Naval Command, "This is KNS Kristof Loncar to Kalmustan Naval Command, we are engaged with the enemy fleet, sending co-ordinates. Several ships have taken damage, the extent of which is still being ascertained."
(OOC: Urgh, I hope that all makes sense. 2am is not a good time for me right now. I should really do these things as soon as I get in, saves me wrecking my brain so late in the day. )
OOC:It makes sense. Dont worry, I have to do the same sometimes.

Shakal Fleet
"How do you think the first volley did?" Conners asked. The fleet continued to sail forwards. The two kilometer long Supercapital ship and its three missle cruisers sailed in a cresent formation covered by sixteen destroyers all on ant-submarine warfare mode. The Missle Cruiseres used there ultra-long range radar to watch the enemy fleet. They prepared another volley and awaited the order.
"We guess that it shook them up, not much more. One ship if we are lucky." Ozawa responded. He then paused for a moment and asked. "Why do we not simply crush them with missles while we know where they are?"
"Simple logistics." Conners said. She had contemplated this several times already before coming to a proper conclusion. "We are invading them, therefore our troops need alot of food and ammuntion to win on land. If we use all our ammo now we would have to get several dozen transports to load them back up again." She paused. "Granted there is no way we could ever use all of our ammo, once this fleet is gone we can assist in strikes on enemy supply depots from thousands of kilometers away. On that note, are we in gun range?"
"Yes maam." An ensign said. A smile crossed Conners face. She looked at him and he pressed the button. (OOC:Yes, the button, your typical big red one that spells doom to whoever is on the other end.) The red alarm lights began to flash, and three rings of a bell wrang over the ship. Almost instantly the huge two thousand horsepower motors that ran each turret began to align targets aquired by the smaller cruisers advanced radar. After a twenty second interval the small screen lite up displaying all the ammuntion in each of the 28 tubes. The lights lite in order signalling each ones readiness to fire. All it would take is Conners to press the touch screen button. Her hand reached forward and pressed the simultaneous fire button. The multi-million ton vessel rocked as 280 metric tons of ammuntion aimed at the enemy aircraft carrier. Conners waited as the camera in each shell was displayed on the massive screen that also formed part of the warboard. A single hit would be more than ample to disable any vessel the enemy possesed. The best part was that at this range, 130km, the enemy could only return fire with missles.
Basically I'm invading your Far East at five different locations: Vladivostok, Sakhalin Island, Anadyr, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, and the rural hinterlands of Khabarovsk krai. I was describing the landings...

The first of the shells hit the ocean less than thirty meters off the post side of KNS Kristof Loncar, whilst the second, third and forth were progressively closer. The fifth was on target and tore a hole through the flight deck and penetrated down into the hangers and living quarters below.
Of the twenty-eight rounds launched, only eight missed, the remaining twenty striking along the length of the carrier, crippling her and the aircraft she carried.
"This is KNS November Dawn to Naval Command, we are code red, the Kristof Loncar is severely damaged, requesting immediate support from land-based aircraft and missile systems."
"Roger that, I'll see what we can rustle up for you."
Within seconds, the Kirov Class battlecruiser had initiated the launch cycle on all twenty of her anti-ship missiles. Less than thirty seconds later all the tubes were empty and undergoing the process of reloading
Closing on the Shakal fleet
The pair of Kilo Class submarines edged forwards at less than five knots in an effort to sneak as close to the enemy location as possible. The crew of both were silent, fearing so much as a cough would give their position away. They were out here alone, the remaining submarines were some ninety kilometres behind them, the surface fleet were even further than that.
A deadly payload of six torpedo's sat ready in each sub's tubes, a further twelve were ready to be loaded. All they were waiting for was to get that little bit closer to their target.

Several units of the 1UCANGU moved towards Novolitovsk in the north, while the others seized roads leading to Nakhodka proper.
UNAAFS Defiance led the 100-ship blockade of the deep water port of Nakhodka, with the aircraft carrier being used as a springboard for attacks on military installations of the Nakhodka valley. Planes bombed military ships moored at the Nakhodka docks. Meanwhile, a daring landing involving the UNAAS New Jersey and UNAAS Maryland established a beachhead for the 164th Infantry Division, 179th Marine Division, and 175th Armored Division at the west side of the bay.

The Emmerican land forces have been marching for days, yet have remain unchecked by Phillipindia.

With the pair of B-2 offshore, the attack on phillipindia capital from the rear, would begin shortly.

"Give us the co-ordinates and we will lock and load and you will get to see the tiny pieces. X-ray over and out."
*Inside Kiel*
The flash bang and C-4 bombs went off in unison. with the enemy hopefully disorientated from the attack, the LMN jumped into action.
"I want the SAW on the flank of the enemy location and I want some close air support on stand by." Sparky shouted. The only reason they knew so much was the fact they had spent days watching the enemy, observing there patterns, even to the extent of watching what time they would drink at. The 50 troops moved forward in there full black Heckler and Koch covert ops gear. With his C-4 ready Sparky moved towards the first set of air defences when he had gunfire 'I hope that is our boys' he thought to him. He begun to plant the charge.

Lance leader Stallion 6 got comfortable in his cockpit. His lance was going to be part of the largest air armada in the history of Dynamic Revolution. Stallion looked at the other 7 members of his lance. They were the pinnacle of ground attack skill.Combined with the 20 other lances they formed the very best Dynamic Revolutionary close air support, The Fallen Angels (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhPwaApe4Rk) squadron. They flew the improved A-10 II G's. They had been given extra power with new engines. Together with the the other close air support squadrons; The Avenging Angels, The Strike Eagles (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJDxHMjgHCI&feature=related), and The Hell Fish. The Avenging Angels flew A-10 II G's and the Eagles and Fish flew Tornadoes. Protecting the ground attack aircraft would be 5 squadrons. 3 were flying SU-37's, 1 squadron was flying SU-47's and 1 was flying F-22's. The air armada formed above Salvistron Air base. 10 KC-130's refueled the planes before they headed towards the front lines

Within seconds, the Kirov Class battlecruiser had initiated the launch cycle on all twenty of her anti-ship missiles. Less than thirty seconds later all the tubes were empty and undergoing the process of reloading
Closing on the Shakal fleet
The pair of Kilo Class submarines edged forwards at less than five knots in an effort to sneak as close to the enemy location as possible. The crew of both were silent, fearing so much as a cough would give their position away. They were out here alone, the remaining submarines were some ninety kilometres behind them, the surface fleet were even further than that.
A deadly payload of six torpedo's sat ready in each sub's tubes, a further twelve were ready to be loaded. All they were waiting for was to get that little bit closer to their target.
Shakal Fleet
The Kalmustan counterfire was far to little to have a greater impact. The twenty incoming missles were mostly intercepted by CIWS and other systems. Only four got through and made contact. Three made contact with the Shakal missle cruisers. Luckily, Shakal vessels have heavier armor than other contemporary vessels and withstood the brunt of the assault. Still, it was hurt bad enough that it would need a few million dollars worth of long time repairs before it could be used in a sea parade. Conners ordered another volley of 140 missles to hit the enemy fleet. Another broadside was also ordered from the Samantha.
Shakal Destroyer DD-4566
"Sir, I believe we have a read-" The sign vanished quickly, the ensign rubbed his eyes and took a closer look again at the screen. He could have sworn he saw something, and the equipment the Shakal used was more than capable of filtering out random singals like whales or garbage.
"What is it ensign? Did you have a partial reading?" The captain asked coming over.
"Yes sir. I believe I saw something, maybe just a decoy or mine." Was the reply.
"Well, alert the GA anyways, no need to get 21 million tons of metal near mines if we can help it. There is also the risk that it is an enemy sub." The captain paused and looked at the screen quietly for several seconds as Grand Admiral Conners was contacted. "Launch a charge set just to be sure. Then we will know what it really is." After a nod the order to drop a charge set went out and the ship became more alert. The arms swung over the sid eof the vessel holding a large spherical charge. It fell into the water and the small propellers sprung to life aiming it for its target. Once there it would explode into four depth charges that would easily devastate any submarine or other underwater veichle in the area.

INVASION DAY
11 HOURS, 12 MINUTES
EMDEN COAST
The winds are devastating, the soldiers have no choice but to sit there and wait for a unlikely invasion but General Taniada insist that they stay there, Thunder and Lightning is making life difficult for the soldiers. they have received news that Greal has broken through the Defensive Line and besieged several cities, but morale in the Emden Coast has continued to be strong, thanks to the brutal training of the IAFP,
Radar has not shown any enemies for the last 11 Hours, they thought wrong, 3 miles north, Emmerican Invasion Forces are forming, waiting for the right time to strike. thunder then rumbled again, Radar lighted up small dots moving towards them, Pvt. Wilkins noticed that.
"What the...." Wilkins is shocked
"Captain!, Captain!" Wilkins hurriedly called the nearby superior
"What is it?!" Captain Linoan said frustatingly
"Captain!. You better take a look at this!"
"This better be good Private"
The Captain then looked at the radar, but he is not shocked, he expected this to happen,
"Private, you saved this whole Defense Force, probably, the whole Philippiniada"
the Captain then ordered Code:Red, alarm then sounded, the tanks and troops took up defensive posistions at the bunkers and pillboxes, trenches are loaded up with troops, tank traps and barbed wires are ahead of trenches, this is sure to slow down their advance
the Artillery Corps then deployed the Deathbringers, then barraged the Emden Coast with all they have got,
OOC: this is my post on your invasion, Emmerican.

The artilary rained down heavily on the Emmerican forces.
"Get the hell down now." Shouted the commander, he dived to the floor as a rocket zoomed past his head.
"I want air support at grid reference 55,43 and get that bloody useless navy doing something." he shouted into the vox of the troops.
The voice of command crumbled over the headset "Be advised two one air support inbound.
"Get those tanks moved forward now, artilary begin shelling and troops stick behind the tanks lets move marines."
The soldiers slowly advanced forward under the heavy fire. The commander looked to the sky the B-2 had begun there bombing run, the napalm burnt the very soil of the ground. The B-2's went back to base to rearm, Su-47 would take there place.

The message is full of lies. the IAFP is armed, very reinforced. and can take on Java. but, they have more things in mind.
The General then ordered all of his troops to get up and have their arms raised until further noticed. or until the aircrafts passed.

Some minutes before, the perimeter near the base has been guarded. Machine guns has been deployed at the perimeter, so do AT gun. The tanks regiment has been readied, and a ship which have a large-barreled guns has it's guns aimed at the outskirts, near the borders.
This is because, when the official saw the pics -just transferred- from the borders, The Philippiniada's men faces seemed determined, not like people who surrendered. A saying is provided true in this situation "We can never be too paranoid."

"Allright boys listen up. We have no direct orders from higher up, so we're going to enter into Phill airspace and ask them where they want us. Don't do anything stupid. We're supposed to kick the door open for the ground troops who are mounting up right now. When we get to target destination tanks, artillery, and HQ's get priority. Hell Fish, Fallen Angels, Avenging Angels, and Strike Eagles dont worry about the fighter aircraft. Let us handle them. Good Luck and Gods speed." And with that Armada Lead signed off. His aircraft would reach Phill airspace in under a minute. Idly he wondered how many of his men would make it out. No, that type of thinking was counter productive. All his men were graduates of STRIKE School. They were the best. They would do allright. Looking at his GPS in the cockpit of his F-22, Armada Lead realized He was crossing into Phill airspace, he changed the frequency on his mic.
"Eagle's Nest this is Air Armada Rebuttal Lead of Dynamic Revolution. We are entering your airspace. We apologize for not being invited, but we couldn't stay away from this party. We have close to 1500 aircraft with no where to go...We thought you might need a hand, tell us where you want the ordinance. Oh, and one other thing, Is there any chance of getting a refuel...If you have 10 or so KC-130 send 'em up...we'll land others to make it quicker. We could make it to the line, but we'd be close to bingo fuel, and wouldn't be able to dance much."

Aboard Presidential Tu-154
The jet was climbing to its cruise altitude, en-route to Novanta air force base. Inside the cabin, the president was sitting opposite one of the countries best military minds.
"The Northern and Eastern fleets have been decimated by Shakal's navy. Latest reports from the fleet indicate they have taken extensive damage across the board. Several vessels have been destroyed, most of those still afloat are crippled. We've lost the surface battle."
The president looked concerned, more concerned than at any point during the war so far. "What about the sub-surface war?"
"No news. The boats are all running quiet, maintaining radio silence as they near the enemy fleet. We believe two Kilo class subs are already within range of the enemy fleet."
"Have them withdraw when you make contact, we cannot risk losing our entire navy. What's the status of the Southern fleet?"
"Standing by to aid with any evacuation. Same goes for most of our heavy transport aircraft."
Aboard Kilo Class K-28
"I've got something showing on sonar, closing fast... "
"Dammit, empty all tubes then take us as deep as we can go."
"I couldn't say, but I'm not picking up much movement to intercept us."
Six torpedoes were expelled from the submarine seconds before it pitched down, beginning its dive. Detecting the launched on it's sonar, the second submarine also launched her six torpedoes and began to break engagement.
The charge detonated several dozen meters above K-28, shaking the boat and causing little damage. The captain smiled, he'd evaded the enemy. Then the boat was rocked by a series of explosions, causing damage to the aft section.
"What the hell was that?"
"Multiple charges, that first one must've split into smaller ones. That's a damned dirty tactic that."
"Damage report!"
"We've lost propulsion, we're dead in the water, "
"Take us up, we can't do anything more down here, they'll be on us in a matter of minutes anyway. Maybe we can make them think it's just the one sub."
Shakal Expiditionary Force HQ
"How much resistance had been met?" Derrick asked his Chief Of Staff, General Schaal.
"Very little, our advance units have covered an impressive distance already. The flanks are spreading." He replied.
"How are the casualties so far?" Derrick inquired. So far the supplies were in good shape and the veichles more than capable of handling the weather. The men had cold weather gear already and would be easily capable of handling temperatures down to -40 Degrees Celsius.
"732 In all. 3 Tanks, and 6 other veichles." Schaal replied. Not even close to a dent in the quarter million now on Kalmurstan soils. "At sea we can surely assume a crushing victory." He added. In the past two hundred years the Shakal navy had never been beaten in a major engagement. Of course it had lost in single vessel combat at times, but in multi-vessel combat there record was impecable. The Shakal navy of a mere 90 vessels had stared down a Pudite fleet of 7000 vessels and won.
"Ensure all industrial sectors are secured quickly. At 10pm issue Order 351." Derrick said looking at the clock. The attacks towards the enemy cities must have reached there locations and were due to report contact at any second.
Shakal Fleet
"Admiral, a sub surfacing!" the ensign said to Conners as she looked out the massive bridge window. A few seconds before the torpedoes had made contact with a screening destroyer. Conners counted 4 hits on it and another 3 on a cruiser. The destroyer was already half sunk and a great loss, but the cruiser would make it home for repairs. As she watched the destroyer sink she noticed a slight disturbance in the water. She watched the torpedoes as they headed for her ship. Without a word or a look of worry she smiled as they made contact with the pride of the Shakal navy (http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/3935/shakalsinsamanthafinalyk9.png). They could not even make the ship lurch. The most they did was penetrate the outermost layer of the three meters of armor.
"Make those men prisioners." Conners stopped for a moment. "And sweep for another sub, there is no way that thing could fire twelve torpedoes that quickly." The addition was an insurance policy. Already a Shakal destroyer had sailed over to the sub and had informed them that they would be put into a prision camp if they surrendered, or given two minutes to run if they chose to continue the fight. She watched and awaited there decision.
Shakal Palace
What is this now? The Empress thought, a report had come to her desk concerning the war between Brutland Norden and Greal. She raised her eyebrow as she read. With only a small portion of the Shakal navy engaged in Kalmurstan over five hundred vessels could be quickly gathered for an invasion of the nation attacking there ally, including ten supercarriers and twenty five escort carriers for a grand total of some 3700 aircraft to give it a healthy air umbrella. She could have eighteen million men mobilized for combat in three weeks time aside thirty thousand tanks and other forces. However, a decleration of war would not be sent until the Empire was ready to strike. The Empress ordered intelligence to begin immediatly, spies in the enemy nation would become acive and report on the everyday life of the citizens and if possible higher prioirty targets. The order to mobilize was also spread through the ranks...

In one of most massive airlifts, three army divisions were landed on the southern end of the front, bolstering the mountainous part of the defense line. The 142nd Airborne Division bolstered the defenses near the Czech border, between Regnitzlosau and Feilitzsch. The 31st Mountain Division stood between Gottmansgrün and Blankenstein, and the 32nd Mountain Division, meanwhile, sat on the hilly region around Wurzbach.
Squadron after squadron of planes arrived, completing the 18th Air Force Wing, stationed in the town of Münchberg.

EMDEN INVASION
Major General Pontium Alores, the man in-charge of the Emden Defense Line has ordered 3 Regiments(30.000 troops per regiment) and 5 IAF Wings to reinforce the already heavily fortified Defense Line. the 120mm Cannons then opened fired at the Emmerican Navy. and the Imperial Dive Bombers does some damage at the naval ships of the Emmerican Navy. (ooc: is their an Emmerican Air Force? just asking. cause i haven't seen you rping them) the IAF then brutalized the Emmerican Beachhead. firing "special" canisters of volatile gas bombs(non-chemical. highly flammable). burning the beach.
The Imperial Artillery Corps continued to barrage the beach. they then launched land-based cruise missiles. aiming at the Emmerican Navy. but also hitting the beachhead and all important military targets at the beach.
Finally. the Emmerican. the one who caused this whole war. will pay for it's sins to the Empire. to God. and to the World

The Emmerican advance would not be slowed, the naval ships fired there new prototype rail-guns (occ: rail-guns exist just take a lot of maintenance.) flinging the shells over 30 miles to main concentration of defence, while the super destroyers turned there full firepower onto the Phillip India navy. In the air the REAF Su-47's fired there ATA missiles towards the enemy fights, while apache and AC-130 guns moved into position to support the ground troops.
"You fight for your country brethren, now take it to them." shouted the lieutenant, the troops ran with ferocious speed, the fear was in there eyes but it fuelled there body, mixing with the adrenaline.
"I want some more fire on there defensive lines. Get those B-2 back in action." Shouted the commander, a cruise missile hit the ground near him flinging him into the sand. "now you will pay. Private request some tear gas to be dropped onto there position I don't care what by. Our troops should be fine gas-masks are standard equipment." The commander walked off and fired his OICW in rage.
*15,000 above the fighting.*
"This is escort 1-b. B-2 and the B-15 are ready to drop there payload, watch out boys, this tear gas screws you up. Over and out"

Inside the Shakal Fleet
The crew of K-28 surrendered quickly. Their vessel was crippled, continuing to fight was not an option. The ageing sub was hardly worth any more lives. Of the fifty-two man compliment, forty-six were taken prisoner, six having been killed by the depth charges.
Just outside Lanjsk
The major cities across Kalmurstan were now much like bees-nests. Military personnel swarmed in the streets, preparing for the brutal city fighting that was fast approaching. Lanjsk was the first city to feel the tip of the Shakal spear, the men and women of the 340th Recon Regiment, Echo Company, 3rd Platoon, reported enemy movement just outside the suburbs. Their BRDM-1 patrol vehicles would be severely outgunned against any sort of armoured foe, and so once they radioed in the co-ordinates where the enemy had been sighted they began retreating towards the city's first line of defence, and the anti-armour defences it held.

INVASION DAY
17 HOURS. 56 MINUTES
Emmerican Advance was supported by dozens of shells. but the Philippiniada's Defensive walls were built to withstand this kind of punishment. Hundreds of Bombers targeted the Emmerican Navy's "Super Destroyers". and fighter-bombers launched air to sea missiles. sure to pack one hell of a punch.
the IRN suffered damages but is quickly repaired by the ships "repair mechanism". Aircraft Carrier "IRN Anselmo". the flagship of the Artic Fleet. although busy on the Greal Front. launched some of its anti-navy aircraft to deal with the Emmerican Navy.
The quick and childish advance of the Emmerican soldiers and its tanks amused General Pontium Alores. he knew the General leading the Emmerican Invasion Force is a patriotic but dumb general. the first of many defense mechanisms is activated. the first minefield exploded. that will deal many casualties on the Emmerican front. as well Slowing their advance.
Sentry Guns and 120mm Cannons fired at the advancing enemies. Fixed and Mobile SAM sites fired hundreds of missiles at the advancing enemy aircrafts. not to mention the IAF firing thousands of missiles against the aircrafts.
As soon as the tear gas dropped. the General again laughed. he has stocks of Gas Masks on the tunnels. his army is then equiped with high-tech Gas Masks. capable of seeing clearly and has communication capabilities.
more and more supplies are delivered at the front. as well as fresh UNAS and IAF troops. ready to take on a inexperienced nation at war. the Imperial Artillery Corps continued to harass and supress the beachhead of the Emmerican. hundreds of Cruise Missiles. land and sea based. rained through the sky like a modern style archer attack.

(OCC: right I dropped the LMN in ages ago near the start of the thread. They are waiting for your bomb defusal team still. railguns here (http://www.geekologie.com/2008/02/navy_tests_new_railgun_it_look.php) there you go. No it doesn't fire laser beams. Just a different form of release instead of the usual explosive reaction. So there my explanation if you have a problem with me using railguns which are very close then say it.)
The ground troops took a lot of causalities from the first line of defences, yet they were that 1 step closer to the enemy, with a firm standing now they could bring in heavy equipment behind them to support them. The commander looked quite please with himself at what was happening ‘they ranks will be filled with fresh recruits soon anyway.’
In the sea the navy had been heavily damaged with the destruction of 1 super carrier and with 1 in need of immediate repair, Emmerican long range capabilities would be seriously damaged if it wasn’t for the rest of the navy firing cruise missiles, as unfortunately for the ground troops the rail guns would need to cool for about 20 minutes before the next salvo begun to fire.
In the air the battle had just begun as 40 Su-47 had arrived from the furthest Emmerican air bases, with another 40 planes reaching the battle within the hour including 3 newly purchased Euro fighter typhoon. If Phillip India thought the air battle was over, they were wrong, it had only just begun.
“Push forward men, do not falter we shall kill them all.” Shouted the commander and with his voice the rail guns begun to fire.

The men's time had been filled with mindless cleaning, drilling, working out, drills, more cleaning more drilling and more working out. Needless to say they were a little grumpy. The Captain smirked, that was all about to change. The 713th Wolf Pack had been ordered to deploy in assistance to allied nations under attack. Primary objectives were controlling supply routes, destroying capital ships, and air craft carriers. Ultimate Objective was breaking the back of the naval invasion of Philippinadia. The captain looked at the orders one more time to make sure he wasn't dreaming. He had the quietest boat unknown to man, he smirked at his pun. Not to mention he had the best crew. The U212 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_212_submarine) was the successor to the famed U202 class submarine. The U212 was quieter, faster, and deadlier than its predecessor. *All 26 submarines of the wolf pack were being deployed? that was a lot of firepower....what are we up against?* Thought the Captain, then flipping the paper he saw. It was satellite Imagery of the Emmerican fleet off the coast of Phil....*Oh* The Captain picked up the Com.
"Now here this, now here this. We are being deployed to a hot theater of combat our 25 sister ships will be with us. i have full faith in your ability to do your jobs. For Dynamic Revolution, For her Allies!"
With that the entire crew gave a resounding war cry.

Shakal Fleet
With the surrender of the submarine crew came a sense of victory. The enemy fleet was in shamles against one fraction of the Shakal fleet, and a small fraction at that. Conners ordered the ships to head back to the 3 Smaller Nimitz Class carriers that now were assigned to keep the supply route to Kalmurstan open. And along with the supplies came the garrison force, a special set of divisions trained for garrisoning enemy territory. They lacked heavy firepower, but were armed with anti-tank, anti-air and a hefty surplus of anti-personell weapons. Three divisions of ten thousand men each would land and begin to take over the occupation duties freeing the more capable field forces for further combat.

"Ignore the city, the enemy wants to stall us. Encircle it and head for the east coast again." Derrick ordered looking at the city of Lanjsk. The garrison forces could finish off what was in there, since intelligence showed that the Kalmurstan military was outnumbered 2:1 already, Derrick's calculations put a single division inside the city maximum. Already the Shakal Spearhead swerved around the city and heade dfurther on leaving the city encircled by smaller slower moving forces.
Shakal Imperial Palace
The mobilization order had went out well. Seven million men now waited for transport to there respective war zones. Another eleven million were still mobilizing, at that point only the Shakal reserves and 5 million other standing regulars would be left to protect the Shakal borders. In response to the threat the Kaiserliche Marine was increasing production of vessels, to replace losses. In total twenty seven of the thirty Panscrier divisions would take part in the combat. This would leave two to defend the homeland, plus one in Kalmurstan. The Luftwaffe was also preparing for war. The entire air fleet of around 21,000 aircraft was positioned to defend the homeland and make an easy rebase in the future. The war would come soon.

Aboard Presidential Tu-154
"We need to hit them hard and we need to hit them where they don't expect it. We've tried their beachhead from both air and sea, both failed. We've tried going toe-to-toe on the ground, that failed. We have one final option." The air-force general tapped his pointer against the map. "We have to try a strike against the very heart of our enemy. We have the capability to reach Shakal with our strategic bombers. I have ordered the preparation of all bombers presently available. They can be airborne and en-route within thirty minutes."
The president nodded, "And what are the hoped results of this strike?"
"We hope to damage their domestic propaganda. No doubt the public of Shakal have been informed of how well their troops are doing. If we can land even one missile in a major civilian area, we can prove that they have not crushed us, and that we are still dangerous."
"What scale will the strike be?"
"We can launch about three-quarters of our total force in the next thirty minutes. That totals some fifty aircraft, or over six-hundred missiles, assuming a 100% launch rate."
"And if we didn't launch this strike?"
"Then those aircraft would be sat on the tarmac, doing nothing, except waiting for the call to perform some other operation."
"Approved, send the authorisation codes to the Gatehouse, let them distribute from there. What's the next point of business?"
Over the next half hour, over four dozen strategic bombers took off from airbases across the south and east of the country, their payloads ready to set off towards the major population centres within Shakal.
Lanjsk
The commander of the forces stationed within Lanjsk waited for the enemy push, the various recon units relaying information about enemy movements around the outskirts of the city, but no direct engagements. He decided to wait and see what happened, ordering the troops under his command to hold their fire until fired upon.
OOC: DR, depending on what you've got available, I could probably use some help from your navy, although a head-on attack probably isn't the best idea as I found out. As far as air support goes, my airforce is still pretty-much in one piece, so I could provide some semblance of air support for any deployment you may send. Ground forces would also be much appreciated.

(OOC: :D )
The Northern Fleet got an encrypted message from HQ. The message was short, only 3 words, but the meaning was enormous. Admiral Shank read the message "Go Operation Noose".
The Admiral Picked up his 108 bit incripted phone and called Rear Admiral Hankson and Rear Admiral Yelkavich.
"Hankson, Yelkavich I just received word from HQ. We are go Operation Noose. I want your boats in the water in under an hour. Admiral Yelkavich your Water Dragons are necesary for the success of this mission. This system has never been used in combat yet, how sure are you that it will work?"
"110% sir. The men are trained well, the boats are strong and the weather is fine. There will be no mis-haps."
"Good, Hankson your subs are the latest and greatest, can they do the job?"
"Not a doubt in my mind sir. This is what we were trained for."
"Ok, the people of Kalmurstan are counting on you."
"HOORAH! SIR!" came the responce
"Pass it on to the men that I'm proud to be their commander."
Again as if in unison "Will-do Admiral"
"Allright, goodluck gentlemen."
With that the comm was terminated
_________________________________________________________________
In the Bunker/Dock
Men ran around with a purpose. Scrambling to get their last bit of gear tucked and stowed, as their Captains watched over them. Their "ships" were huge more than 100 meters long. One of these behemoths was equipped with a radar system that rivaled most AWACS aircraft, the ECM system was the most powerful yet put into service. The other 14 boats were equipped with SSM batteries. All together these large Water Dragons packed quite a wallop, in an unexpected package.
After all the gear was packed and all the men were packed the 15 "ships" got underneath the "Super Cruiser" cover. From the air it would seem that the 15 Water Dragons were actually one humongous super ship. However it was only an allusion to confuse any possible spy satellite or plane. In reality the "ships" would wait until they were out to sea, then scatter to avoid detection. The satellites would simply witness a super cruiser vanish into thin air. The 15 crafts all under the cover were pulled out to sea by several tugs. Once there they waited till night fall, then, they discarded the cover and scattered. It would only take them until 3am local time to reach their target.
_________________________________________________________________
Naval Sub Pen
Other Side of Naval Base
The scene here was similar to that of the bunker/dock. Men ran around in a frantic attempt to stow away that last valuable item. Wile closely being watched by their Captains. Once everything was stowed the subs locked down their hatches and left port. Their destination was Oil Rig 1337, which in all actuality wasn't an oil rig at all. In fact it was a top secret sub-refueling station in the middle of the ocean. Once there the 35 subs would re-fuel, and begin the final journey to their target. Their objective was to cut off the supply route between the Nation of Shakal and their fleet in friendly waters. They would break into 2 groups. One to shadow the fleet and sink any ships from Shakal's enemies the other would silently patrol near major ports and naval bases on the actual nation of Shakal. The crews were more than up to the task, they knew they could rely on their captains and their U212's to get them safely through this mission.

Esteemed Peers,
It has come to our attention that there is a large Fleet of your warships off the coast of Kalmurstan. Obviously this is some mistake, because there have been reports of fighting on the island. We know that cooler more intelligent heads will prevail in this situation, so this council figured it better to inform you of your mistake before anyone gets hurt. We feel that by simply informing you of the situation we would be able to correct this obvious error in navigation.
With Honor,

OOC:... 50 aircraft? Well, I cannot allow this to go unpunished... :D OOC2: DR:The fleet I am describing in this post is not at Kalmurstan. That will take some research for you to figure out.
Shakal Kalurstan Army HQ
The Shakal force knew something was up. No enemy aircraft had even attempted to attack the Shakal forces. This was both a blessing and an ominous sign. It meant that either the Kalmurstan military knew they didnt stand a chance against the eight hundred Shakal aircraft in the Kalmurstan homeland, or they were gathering strength for some form of strike. A warning was sent to Shakal the Shakal OKW concerning a possible enemy concentrated attack at a strategic point.
Imperial Palace
The Empress had alerted the Luftwaffe to be at the ready for the expected attack on Brutland Norden. The new message from the Kalmurstan front made sure that all SAM sites and long range radar stations were on alert. The countries space assests, in the form of GPS sattelites , began to survey enemy territories all over the world in preperation for what would be the largest invasion in the history of mankind (which had been aptly named Operation Unleashed). The air patrols began to increase to ensure no enemy spy aircraft managed to reach the Homeland.
Shakal Military Harbour Codename Walnut
Admiral Martini stood at the top of his ship, the sister to the Samantha, the S.I.N Armageddon. Dozens of ships were gathered in neat order in the massive milti-kilometer long docks. He could look out to he north from his position 180m above the surface of the water from the observation deck of the ship and could see far into the horizon. The main force was the ten 180 aicraft Supercarriers and the twenty five Nimitz Class Carriers that would provide escorts. Aside from these carriers one hundred and thirty missle cruisers and one hundred and twenty light cruisers would be the major escort. The brute force of the fleet relied upon the thirty heavy cruisers and the eight Strongpoint ships, each carrying a missle arsenal large enough to take out over three times the combined fleet of the USA. In addition, they each carried twelve nuclear warheads if the battle became desperate. The fleet would be joined by three hundred destroyers as it left port. No enemy could withstand the missles it could lay down. Even if they did, the Shakal vessels, expecially the Strongpoint ships and the Armageddon could handle anything short of a nuclear retaliation.

The bombardier sat up straight and spoke through the internal comms system, "Target co-ordinates are programmed into the missiles, ready to launch once we're within range"
"Shouldn't be too long now." The pilot eased the throttle forwards, watching his airspeed rise, "We can cut and run about one-hundred and eighty miles from the target."
"I still don't like it, they're civilians we're targeting, not military."
"You know full well what's happened back home, they've targeted out civilians, we're targeting theirs. All's fair in love and war, all's fair."
The co-pilot watched as they passed a Tu-95, the pilot of the Bear waved, then took is bird into a steady climb.
They've got the easy job, long range missiles. They can stay clear of intercepters, not like us. We get to fly right into their maw and hope it doesn't close on us before we get back out.
"Oi, eye on the target, Ilija, We'll get through this. Remember, one of many planes, one-eighty miles out, ten missiles free. We'll be doing Mach two all the way home. Keep the faith, Ilija, we gotta keep the faith."

Derrick watched as three of his men were shot. He knew why the act was perfectly acceptable. They had shot enemy civilians, the punishment was death for the crime, as it had been since the days after the Holy Purge. Derrick knew that the order he gave a few days before would culminate in the death of around 30 of his men before the campaign ended. It was a small price to pay knowing that no matter how full of propaganda the world was pumped, the people of Kalmurstan would always know that the Shakal troops never pillaged or burned there homes, or even entered them without written permission.
Shakal Airspace
The enemy aircraft had been detected approaching the Shakal island by the massive network of ultra-long range RADAR and various space sattelittes. Orders to intercept were issued to JG 101. It scrambled its fighters and began to head out utilizing AWAC information to acertain the position of the enemy. The wing consisted of 36 F-22A Raptors, 14 Su-37 Terminators, 10 MiG-29 and 40 X-02 Wyverns. The latter of which were equipped with LRAAM missles for engagesments beyond the horizon. The enemy aircraft would not get a missle onto Shakal soil.

The fifteen Water Dragons approached the enemy fleet with the EW Water Dragon in the lead. Suddenly the EW Craft came over the radio:
"All Dragons this is Fire-eye. Long range radar has picked up the enemy vessels. We are submitting coordinates now, prime your missiles. We'll keep up jamming until y'all are in range, then, let 'em have it. We will be in range in 3 minutes. Increase to attack speed and get in formation. Good luck strikers."
The "ships" formed two columns behind the Electronic Warfare craft. The pilots pushed the throttles to "Full" and the crafts accelerated to 320 knots. The crews on each ship began to arm all 14 of the RBS-15 missiles. The targets were the large capital ships. One of which appeared to be an extremely large battleship of sorts. The other three targets were aircraft carriers, missile cruisers, and missile destroyers in that order. The "battleship" would have the honor of taking the brunt of the missile strike, some 110 missiles. Any carriers in the area would receive anywhere from 20 to 30 apiece. Any remaining missile would be fired at the larger cruisers. Half the missiles had been fitted with "Pop-up" ability. They would approach the target at 15ft above the water line. When they were 30 meters away they would go vertical before plunging down on top of the target. The other half were standard anti-ship missiles.

Inside Tu-22M, 770km from target
"How long until we can get the hell out of here?" The copilot sounded edgy, nervous even. Understandably so, here they were, four men, flying straight towards the enemy.
The pilot frowned as he looked at the readouts Too long! "We've got about another half-hour before we reach launch range." Why did I have to train on this thing rather than the stubborn old Bear? They're going to be in missile range aver five-hundred kilometres behind us. Damn them and their thousand kilometre missiles!
"What about the other birds? I only see us and the other Backfire's up here."
"They're carrying the long-range Granat missiles so are following behind at slower speeds to co-ordinate the launches." What I wouldn't give to be in one of them planes right now
"Inbound traces on radar! Lot's of them, pretty fast movers." The defensive systems operator spoke up, scribbling some figures on a sheet of paper.
"Time to engage?"
"Fifteen minutes, tops."
Shit... We've got to get to launch range, if we go full throttle, that'll take about ten minutes, but they'd be on us... now we're gambling.
The pilot slammed the throttle as far forwards as it would go, the twin Kuznetsov engines rumbling as the afterburners ignited, pushing the bomber to just over Mach Two. The other twenty-six Backfire's followed suit, some climbing, others diving, trying to spread themselves out so as to deliver as much of their payload as possible.
Shakal Kalmurstan Fleet
"We have driven the enemy fleet back. Now all we need is to protect a supply route." Admiral Ozawa reported to the Grand Admiral. So far the war had gone well, with the loss of only a single Destroyer the strike group was more than intact. It was also still armed with thousands of missles. The only threat to them now was stealth aircraft, and even then it would take a strike of dozens to do real damage. Even the Nimitz Class carriers were expendable vessels now. The Shakal industries were more than capable of producing ten a year. Thanks to the wonderful Shakal ingrained ideal of serving the nation no matter the cost, plus robots, those helped make things get built fast and well.
"What about the fleet preparing to engage Brutland Norden?" Conners asked.
"It is almost ready, another three days of gathering supplies and it will be able to set out and assist the invasion." Ozawa answered. The two admirals stood alone in the room, so that even if someone did overhear, it wouldnt be anything special.
"Whats the overall shape of our fleet here?" She asked. She didnt mean physically, it was fine like that, but morally it may have suffered slightly.
"Well, with the carriers here now, plus the Samantha we could handle any ship they sent this way. With the carrier air power any ar attack would be suicide. The men seem to be in high hopes, the war is going so well they have no reason to be demoralized." replied Ozawa.
"How is Derrick doing?" She asked looking at a land map of Kalmurstan. "Has he wrapped it all up yet?" Conners added sarcastically. She couldnt help but feel proud, her and Derrick always raced on military campaigns to see who's job would be done quicker, and with better efficiency.
"His communications report that his troops are past Lajnsk already." Ozawa paused. "He is really trying isnt he?"
Conners looked at the old man. He was a capable commander and armed with a quick wit to offset his lack of physical strength. It was a well known fact within the Empire that the 'Big Three', Herself, Empress Kristina Schraepl II, and High Field Marschall Derrick Braun, were the controllers of the entire nation, and all formed a sort of love triangle. Not to mention the oldest of them was 19. Derrick being 18, and the Empress also 18 made Conners the senior. She gave Ozawa a smile.
"Of course he is, he knows I LOVE valentines presents, expecially if I get them early." Was her response to the old Admirals joke. It was at that second that the alarm went off for immediate CIWS interception. Missles were heading towards them. The system began to fire as soon as they came in range. Several exploded before they made contact with the hull of the ship, but many got through and crashed into the hull of the vessel. Those that hit higher and impacted the over deck sector caused serious damage. These sixteen made the ship shake, an achievement in itself. Conners lifted herself off the table and ran to the bridge. "Report!" She said.
"We have been hit by over three dozen missles! more hit other ships!" Conners slammed her fist down.
"Why was no one watching these things?" She said indicating the stations. She knew the answer, a turn of her head showed that they were leaning on the rails of the decking outside the bridge smoking. She ran up behind them and pushed both over the 300m drop to the water, if they were lucky they would hit the ship and die instantly. The attack had knocked out over 20 secondary weapons and 2 tubes of the 28 main guns. Luckily, the VLS missles had yet to be hit with any force. She could see a carrier burning out the bridge window. The strike had cost them big. The ship would be savlageable, if it could make it home, but the flight deck was gone, along with 30 of the planes undergoing matinence on it. The missle cruisers were sending reports of there damage as she scanned for enemy aircraft. One was going to sink and was attemping to preserve as much as possible before it went down. The fleet was still in fine shape, around 75 ships remained intact and capable of ASW missions to protect the supply lines to the ground troops.
"Get some aircraft up and destroy those planes!" Ozawa ordered now recovered from the attack. The order was sent and the Shakal carrier began to launch its entire compliment of 80 aircraft. They would intercept whatever enemy had done this to them.
Shakal JG 101
The Shakal aircraft detected the increase in the enemies airspeed and did the same. The agile small aircraft capable of Mach 2.5 with ease. As soon as range was reached the 36 F-22A fired a salvo of missles and prepared for further engagements. The 40 X-02, 10 MiG-29, and 14 Su-37 sped on headed for the rest of the enemy group. They would not escape the area alive. Any incoming missles were intercepted, by a means never before seen, aerial interception. The MiG-29 aircraft looked for any missle heading for the Shakal homeland and would fly in its path to stop it.
Shakal Kalmurstan Army HQ
Derrick looked through his binoculars as his tank sped forward, the city of Lajnsk lay behind him encircled by a division of troops. He turned back forward. Any enemy they met would not be seen by the air unbrella of 800 aircraft that he had been assigned to protect his men. They would perform CAS missions and break the enemy supply trains allowing him to punch through without effort to he sea.

The Water Dragons were all Redlining at 330 knots. They didn't bother trying to turn, at this speed it would of taken too long. Instead they used the "dip" method. Meaning the planes stayed just out of their missile range. Then the would "dip" into range, fire their missiles, and continue onward at maximum speed. After missile launch the pilots pushed their craft to the envelope trying to evade the enemy response. If it seemed that all was doomed they would light the charges in their boats to avoid capture.

The 20 submarines were approaching their target areas of operations. Any ship in that area would be considered hostile and thus sunk. The submarines took their positions roughly 100 Nautical miles away from the enemy fleet. Silently the subs waited for any pray to fall into their trap.

"The enemy have launched missiles, I don't think we can evade."
"Launch our missiles."
"But we're still out of range, they'll not reach."
"We have to hope they have the momentum to drop onto their targets."
"Launching missiles!"
The first pair of Kh-15 missiles leapt skywards, accelerating to almost Mach 5 as the sped towards their targets. They would run out of fuel short of their targets, but hopefully the combimation of momentum and altitude would ensure at least some of them reached their targets.
"Missile, right on top of us, jink!" The Tupolev banked hard to the right, allowing the missile to hit square on the belly. The force of the explosion tore the bomber to pieces, casting flaming wreckage into a downwards spiral.
Only six of the Backfire's survived the initial salvo, but over one-hundred-sixty missiles were heading towards cities within Shakal.
Inside Tu-95, 1,100km from target
"Seven minutes to launch, preparing missiles."
The majority of the force was closing with their launch point. Once reached, just shy of two-hundred more cruise missiles would be heading towards their targets.
"Reports from the forward group are the engaged with the enemy."
"Gotcha, be ready for the enemy."
Btosk Airbase, Northern Kalmurstan
Klaxons echoed around the base as a combined force of 48 Su-27's, and 96 Su-24's scrambled, moving to attack the Shakal fleet down the forces of Dynamic Revolution.
"This is Gull One to all aircraft, remember, this is all about hitting the OpFor fleet hard and fast, weapons free, engage all available targets!" The pilot of the Su-24 smiled and switched to internal comms, "I've always wanted to say that."

The ground troops took a lot of causalities from the first line of defences, yet they were that 1 step closer to the enemy, with a firm standing now they could bring in heavy equipment behind them to support them. The commander looked quite please with himself at what was happening ‘they ranks will be filled with fresh recruits soon anyway.’
In the sea the navy had been heavily damaged with the destruction of 1 super carrier and with 1 in need of immediate repair, Emmerican long range capabilities would be seriously damaged if it wasn’t for the rest of the navy firing cruise missiles, as unfortunately for the ground troops the rail guns would need to cool for about 20 minutes before the next salvo begun to fire.
In the air the battle had just begun as 40 Su-47 had arrived from the furthest Emmerican air bases, with another 40 planes reaching the battle within the hour including 3 newly purchased Euro fighter typhoon. If Phillip India thought the air battle was over, they were wrong, it had only just begun.

Dawn breaks. The rooster's wake up call is overshadowed by the echoes of the explosions of both fronts. the Greal Invasion Front has gained significant success, they have broken through the North-Western Rizal Defensive Line and now sieging the cities of Lunenberg. Kassel. and Hannover. but casualties of the Greal are increasing rapidly, but the Imperial Armed Forces is expected to retreat at Day 3,
The Emden Coast is once a beautiful beach, one of the most beautiful in the Empire. but, suddenly Emmerican Battleships and Transports desecrated the once beautiful beach, and established a foothold of the beach, but the King won't allow that to happen, especially with low-lifes such as the Emmericans.
EMDEN FRONT
First line of Defenses has inflicted many casualties on the Emmericans part. next defensive lines are yet to come. but General Alores insisted not to activate them.....yet, buffer zones are created. IAF troops deployed their expermiental High Powered MG67 "Imperial Heavy Killer". the Rizal Wall is then transformed into a 4th of July fireworks display. firing at the enemy soldiers. sticky bombs is then utilized by Special Demolition Experts at Tanks which has been stalled by the Tank Traps and Dragon's Teeth,
The IRAF then utilized carpet bombing on the coast, blowing up all that is caught by the bombs, the Emmerican Navy has lacked in repairing mechanisms, that is used in the advantage of both the IRAF and the IRN. they target the turrets and the Central Command System of the ships, cruise missiles and turrets target the Emmerican Navy. and the IRAF dropped air to sea missiles,
The IRAF and the EAF(Emmerican Air Force) then battle for supremacy over air. the Fighters fired a thousand missiles to counter the EAF threat.
the Battle is at par with the Greal Front.... it is brutal.... and it is far from over...
GREAL FRONT
The situation is crazy, urban fighting is a bloody buisness, you don't know if the next corner will be as safe as the other corner, you will need cooperation and coordination, luckily, they own this place
The IAF utilized their knowledge of the battlefield. they staged ambushes, raids, and logistics disruption, and the IAF pushed harder and harder to repel the invasion. another Divisions of tanks and troops arrived. and immediately handed out tasks. and others to the front of the battle.
IRAF still fights the GAF, although greatly mismatched, they showed courage and will to fight the GAF although it might not be enough...

The Shakal aircraft sped at the enemey ships as they came into range. The fifty aircraft could destroy all the enemy vessels at a whim in under three minutes once they reached range travelling at Mach Two.
Shakal JG 101
As the Kalmurstaqn missles headed for the Shakal homeland the Migs and the Su-37 began to intercept them. Four of the migs had already sacrificed themselves to take down some missles. The aircraft used there cannons as much as possible to hit the enemy missles. Though innacurate, a small burst was more than strong enough to take down the missles. The enemy bombers were pursued by a dozen F-22 Raptors as the remainder of the Shakal aircraft headed for the other bombers before firing there missles. The pilots had orders to take the bombers down at all costs. The engines were being pushed full tilt to reach the enemy.
To intercept the forces of the Kalmurstan airforce 210 F-35 aircraft were assigned. They would easily crush the enemy aircraft. On land most of the Shakal aircraft were commited to the defence of the convoys and the fleet. The next supply train was due in 12 hours time.
Shakal Mainland
As the enemy missles that fell short plunged into the ocean the ones with acceptable range were heading for the city of Requek. The Shakal automated defence systems began to kick in, high speed guns locked onto the incoming missles and fired. The hundreds of rounds would take down a healthy 80% of the incoming missles. The ones that penetrated would be tracked by electronic systems, and hopefully made to detonate early using electronic signals.
GREAL FRONT
The situation is crazy, urban fighting is a bloody buisness, you don't know if the next corner will be as safe as the other corner, you will need cooperation and coordination, luckily, they own this place
The IAF utilized their knowledge of the battlefield. they staged ambushes, raids, and logistics disruption, and the IAF pushed harder and harder to repel the invasion. another Divisions of tanks and troops arrived. and immediately handed out tasks. and others to the front of the battle.
IRAF still fights the GAF, although greatly mismatched, they showed courage and will to fight the GAF although it might not be enough...

Battle of the cities
Greal troops were fighting back harshly. Thousands of bodies laid across the cities, Greal troops were among them. Hundreds of tanks were formed and counter attacked the enemy tanks. Greal fighters did the same. Greal night rider bombers laid waste to the land using their deadly missiles and bombs.
10 Greal divisions were massed and prepared to go around the cities toward more enemy cities, they were prepared to invade and destroy the enemy.

Airspace between Shakal and Kalmurstan
"Launch in three, two, one, launch."
The remaining strategic bombers, still some one-thousand kilometres from the Shakal mainland, launched their deadly cargo. Whilst the enemy missiles registered and warnings lit up in the cockpits of many aircraft, the mission was important enough to many that they maintained their course and speed to ensure their full payload was used.
"Panther Twelve, Greyhound's running, bugging out." Air force command heard these words repeatedly over the next sixty seconds, each with a different call-sign.
The Shakal missiles would hit their targets soon enough, but by the time the enemy fighters caught up, they would find only the Bear's, the Blackjack's tipping Mach Two shortly after launching their missiles and breaking back towards home.
_______________
Of the missiles that had been launched by the first wave of bombers, only thirty-six were successfully intercepted by the enemy as they accelerated to Mach Five. A further ninety-seven fell short, leaving twenty-nine on target to hit the Shakal city. Twenty-four more were destroyed by the defence systems, leaving five on target and un-intercepted. All the while, the second wave of missiles was closing fast, this time nearly two-hundred missiles were inbound, and all had the range to reach their targets.
Approaching the Shakal Fleet
"Target your firepower on the heavier vessels, if we hit them above the belt we may be able to do some serious damage."
Two Kh-59M ASM's shot from the rails of each Su-24, destined for the Shakal fleet. As soon as the missiles were free, the bombers started to break off, leaving the Su-27's the intercept and occupy the enemy fighters, hopefully increasing the possibility of the missiles getting through to their targets.
Lanjsk
The ground shook as every artillery piece within the city opened fire on the Shakal forces that had skirted around the outskirts. Simultaneously, several armoured companies prepared to move out and engage the enemy from the rear.
Omnon
The situation was similar to that in Lanjsk, except the enemy force had not yet passed this city, and as such the forces dispatched from here would be meeting the opposition head on. The artillery was walking its shells onto the enemy columns, high explosive and incendiary shells falling regularly as the ground forces prepared to move.
Tabol AFB
A Tu-160 aircraft eased off the runway, the last of an impressive flight of aircraft consisting of one Tu-160, 36 Su-34 and 36 Su-35 aircraft, all destined for the Shakal Fleet, approaching from the opposite direction to the other aircraft.
"Tern One to all aircraft, target any available surface vessels, don't worry about the fighters until your anti-ship missiles are gone."

Battle of the cities
However, Greal troops were tough. They had been trained to fight guerrilla warfare. The Greal troops in the center were veterans of 5 wars, so they knew what to do. Reinforcements from outside the city were minutes away, fighters plus tanks were heading to the center, though fighters arrived first.
The 10 divisions went around the cities and went into the countryside...

OOC: I GET SPAIN! Is anyone Portugal? Plz say no...
IC:
Cabinet Meeting, Shansek (i.e., Madrid)
"Sir," voiced the Chief Advisor at the council meeting. The room was filled with stern men, who had, for the last few minutes, been listening to battle reports of the war tearing the region apart. The cabinet literally jumped in fright as the Advisor continued. "We can no longer stand here while our allies are being teared apart by invaders!"
"I know, I know..." mumbled the President, "but we have no aircraft carriers! Any invasion, any amphibious assault, any naval bombardment...we need aircraft carriers to protect us!" The president was obviously furious, his face contoured in anger and his wrinkles becoming quite prominent. "But...damn this, we're obligated to help..."
"Sir, I have an idea." piped up the Admiral of the Shansekian Navy.
"What?" the president responded, groaning as he took an aspirin.
"The only way to defend our allies...is to draw the enemies on to us. Declare war, mobilize the troops...we act as fly paper, to save our allies."
"NO!" screamed the General of the Armed Forces. "We have no proper army in the first place! If the Minister of Internal Affairs had given us more FUNDS..." The general spun his head towards the minister, who shrugged. "Anyway, we'd have to rely on the navy completely. Who knows, the cruiser and battleship have never been tested in battle, and neither have the sailors."
"Which is why this is the perfect training opportunity! Darwinism! The best will survive, and we can scrape out the filth! You know, president, that we can easily get one of the major corporations to sponsor a recruitment drive to replace dead sailors. What company wouldn't want to be known as the savior of the people?"
The president sighed. Many times, cabinet meetings degenerated into a "flame war" between the two polar opposites; the army general and the navy admiral. "DAMMIT, SHUT UP!!" steamed the Arnold, slamming his fist on the oak desk. The room quickly silenced. "Follow what the admiral said. Line up troops on the borders, scramble the airforce to defend the cities, start the navy on defensive patrols, and raise the DEFCON level to 3..."
"We're going to war."
Military Outpost, Somewhere West of Cantabrian Mountains
"You sure? You're really sure?" questioned the base commander over the phone. "Yes sir. No, no sir. But...yes sir. Of course sir." And with that, the commander hung up the phone. Sitting onto his plush leather chair, he spun over to the PA and picked up the mic.
"Attention, all troops. This is your base commander, General Tony Yamato. It seems we're being mobilized for war. If you would look to your north and squint, you can see the sailors beat us to mobilizing! Obviously, we don't want that happening. Therefore, all units are to IMMEDIATELY report to their rooms, clean their weapons, and mail their last letters."
Troops groaned as the announcement rang over the base's intercom. Shit, thought a soldier, I was supposed to go home tomorrow!

Greetings.
We have seen from our sattelite imagery over your border that you have begun to mobilize your army, i do not blame you if you are concerned with the situation here in our region, but is there other reasons why you mobilized that many Naval Warships?.
We hope that if you will enter this war. Ensure you are on the good side, and we most certainly believe that it is our side.

From the Office of the Shansekian Ministry of Foreign Affairs
To: Jonathan Bruno, Imperial Foreign Magistrate
We are sorry if are sudden mobilization was a bit shocking, but we feel it is needed to defend ourselves adequately. The only way to do that, of course, is to ensure no one lands on our beaches without a war scar. A big one. Anyway, just to warn you, we're probably going to be attacked by some random nation soon. Don't try and help, I'll hold 'em off of you and the other defenders.
Good luck!

Minister Hiroshi Yamauchi of Foreign Affairs
Airspace between Shakal and Kalmurstan
"Launch in three, two, one, launch."
The remaining strategic bombers, still some one-thousand kilometres from the Shakal mainland, launched their deadly cargo. Whilst the enemy missiles registered and warnings lit up in the cockpits of many aircraft, the mission was important enough to many that they maintained their course and speed to ensure their full payload was used.

"Tern One to all aircraft, target any available surface vessels, don't worry about the fighters until your anti-ship missiles are gone."
Shakal Airspace
As the enemy missles continued to fly came what would be the strangest thing a pilot had seen in a long time. The aircraft were intercepting the missles by sacrificng themselves. Of course a dozen would remain to take down any enemy bombers still attempting to run. These dozen X-02, with a top speed of Mach 2.4 each carried at least three long range aerial missles for combat.
Shakal Fleet
The enemy aircraft would be crushed like bugs. You didnt get close to a fleet of missle armed vessels and not expect to die. The destroyers and cruisers would now complete there mission roles and unleash missles at the enemy aircraft. The heavier missle cruisers did the same. In total 300 missles were launch for the enemy aircraft. In addition to the 210 fighters following behind them. The S.I.N Samantha did not launch a volley. It expected it would require them in preperation for another attack by the forces of DR.
Lanjsk
The enemy artillery was not a surpirse. A sortie was expected by the encircling troops. The division had begun to dig in as soon as the city was surrounded. The Shakal artillery began to return fire with interest. The entire division was watching for the location of the attack. The enemy was outnumbered and surrounded, plus the Shakal held air superiority in the area. The General in command of the division used this to his advantage ordering a dozen CAS aircraft to come in and smash the enemy veichles crippling there assult. He also informed the High Field Marshall of the sortie.
Omnon
Derrick was not a fool. He outnumbered the enemy greatly, still have around 80,000 men and over 1500 armored veichles with him, in addition to the 400 artillery, plus local air superiority victory was an easy claim. He suspecte3d that the enemy would sortie towards his rear as the enemy in front attempted to meet. The single flaw was that they were attempting to break the spearhead of his forces. The single strongest point of the attack. Derrick decided he would allow it. He ordered his men to fight and slowly open up a gap in the head allowing the enemy to enter, but the division guarding Lajnsk would remain holding. In this way victory would be swift.

Attack Formation Gull
The pilots knew they likely flew to their deaths, most had accepted this as a sacrifice needed to ensure the survival of their nation. Those who hadn't would rather risk death facing the enemy fleet than face the wrath of a Political Commissar.
"Gull Twelve, I've got missiles inbound on me, I'm going to see if I can't keep our 'friends' occupied, anyone else who wants to play, follow me in!"
Skimming just meters above the ocean, over sixty tons of high-explosives, spread across one-hundred and ninety-two missiles sped towards their targets. With the enemy vessels missile systems preoccupied with intercepting the fighter jets, hopes were high that many of the missiles would hit home.
Almost mirroring the missiles, the Su-27's continues flying straight towards the enemy fleet, and the anti-air ordnance that lay between them.
Of the forty-eight Sukhoi's charging towards the fleet, twenty-nine survived the initial salvo of missiles.
Omnom
The force stopped short of the tip of the spear and formed a defensive line, preparing for the almost inevitable onslaught that would be launched against them. The best they could hope for was to weather the storm long enough for support to link up with them.
Distad AFB
The men and women of the Eightieth Air-Mobile Regiment prepared for their deployment into the fray on the eastern flank of the Shakal push. The ninety-ninth Armoured Infantry Regiment was already on the move towards Omnom, the six companies rolling across the desolate countryside, destined to become a part of Kalmurstani national history.
On the Outskirts of Lanjsk
The three-man team waited, poised as the column approached. Old T-55's, mostly, with the odd jeep in amongst the armoured 'might'. It wouldn't be long now.
Sure enough, within minutes an enemy aircraft strafed along the line of vehicles, hitting many and knocking several out of action. As the aircraft passed almost directly over the soldiers, they trained their Igla SAM's on the plane and fired. The three missiles streaked towards their target, homing in on the hot exhaust presented in front of them.
Attack Formation Tern
As soon as the enemy fleet put their missiles in the air, the Kalmurstani planes did too adding a further three-hundred and seventy-two missiles to those launched by the aircraft of Gull formation.

Shakal Fleet
"These guys are getting annoying." Conners said to the bridge crew. The missles coming at them from all sides were doing quite a bit of damage. The Samantha was still more than capable of functioning, but another carrier and three destroyers had been knocked out so far. Not to mention another cruiser barly afloat. Conners was losing her patience. She decided that supplies didnt matter anymore, the convoys would have enough protection from the Corvettes to handle themselves. "Fire off a salvo, two missles per enemy."
"Yes sir." replied the firing officer as he entered commands into the computer system. The missle bay doors opened and the computer controlled firing sequence began to send hundreds of missles at all enemy targets in the vicinity. If it failed over six more of these huge salvos could be fired without depleteing the stock of missle saboard the ship.
Omnon
Derrick had not anticipated the enemy taking defensive positions, considering that it would be useless. He ordered two divisions to encircle them and crush it. He also ordered the force surrounding Lajnsk to crush the enemy there. He would continue with the main force towards the coast. The now free divisions whose occupational duties had been taken over by the Garrison divisions were heading to seize what parts of the country behind the Shakal thrust remained in enemy hands.
Lajnsk
The SAM missles flew up and struck the Shakal aircraft they wer aiming for. This gave away the location of the site allowing one of the other 11 Shakal CAS planes to destroy it with a precision strike bomb. The force covering the city began to fire away with there artillery units at any known enemy positions. The infantry would remain and allow the enemy to show himself before destroying them.
Shakal Imperial Palace
The Empress was getting more disturbing reports every day. The forces fighting her and her allies grew and grew. Something had to be done, the massive attack on Brutland and Norden would have to be posponed. She had a better idea. In response to Shansekia and there aggressiveness the Shakal Armada would land another force along the Spanish coast to crush them and carry the Shakal flag to the Rhine.
Loading Dock A233
The vessels begun loading and sailing out. An armada of 450 vessels, including 4 supercarriers and 11 Nimitz Class escort carriers, would head towards the Spanish coast with the task of protecting the assult vessels carrying half a million troops for the first assult. No decleration of war was to be had, the enemy had done so already.

The 40 fighters from taffy 3 closed in on the engagement. The allied planes had allready taken a large amount of casualties, Striker Lead hoped they could help. The 40 Su-37's skimmed over the waves at over Mach 1, kicking up a rooster trail as they went. The fighters reached engagement range, and suddenly popped up to 100 meters in altitude, they would be visible on radar now.
"Allright Taffy Strike this is lead, we are roughly 30 seconds from engagement, after you fire your penguins I want 20 to provide cover for the Kalmurstan Aircraft. The rest of you cover our Dragons. Lets do this people."
Striker Lead switched over to another frequency "Attention all Kalmurstan aircraft this is Taffy Striker Lead of the Dynamic Revolution Navy. We heard y'all could use some help?"
With that the flight pushed the throttles to afterburner and sped towards the enemy fleet

The Dragons closed on their firing positions.
"Dragon team this is CEW Dragon, I've got incoming fighters at our twelve o'clock. Activating radar jamming. With any luck now they'll only be ably to use their cannons."

The air superiority fighters went to 3000 meters in altitude and hovered like hawks, daring any enemy fighters to show themselves. The strike aircraft stayed at or below 30 meters to keep them under the radar balloon

The President's Cabinet Room
"Seriously?" questioned the president in a happy voice. That voice was unusual in the cabinet room, as everyone else was quivering with fear. "Shakal is mobilizing?"
"Technically," responded the Chief Advisor, "they've been mobilizing. Only now are they only heading to us."
"Numbers?"
"The only naval warships we've detected are carriers, though submarines are a possibility. Our battleships, cruisers, and submarines don't stand much of a chance. The sailors on board those will be fighting to sink as many ships as possible, not to survive. Meanwhile, our troops don't stand a chance. Even if we somehow doubled our tank and troop numbers-even a draft isn't that quick-we won't last long. No need to count number of troops, we believe their tanks number in the thousands."
"Thousands of tanks? Damn, we're really helping our allies, distracting so many tanks..." The president smiled. He had always been known for being optimistic. "Well then, it's settled. Speed up production of the tanks and IFVs, and start drafting, or at least a recruiting campaign."
The president's face was etched with a wide smirk.
"Let's see how damn well we can last!"
City of Shansek, Capital
Anger flooded the citizens of Shansek and other cities as they heard the news of not only a draft (ages 18-28), but required digging (ages 29-32) of underground shelters. Everyone, though, knew they had no choice. They knew the best they could hope for was leniency from Shakal's government. That was the only hope and reliability the people of Shansekia could grasp, many not able to see the sun rise even due to sleeping in their own shelters-or deathbeds.
Camp Lok, Galicia, West of the Cantabrian Mountains
The camp, which had only days before housed a single battleship and a few hundred men, was now stuffed with a full-blown Shansekian Naval Battlegroup, the 1st Shansekian Army, and the 2nd and 4th Shansekian Airgroups. Space was limited, soldiers finding themselves sleeping inside tanks with the AC on to limit the heat of 5 cramped, snoring bodies while pilots slept in their own cockpits with the window open, ready to launch at any moment. Now, they simply waited. Waited, for the Shakal aircraft carriers to raze the base and kill their fellow soldiers.

"What is the situation?", Viktor Tblis spoke softly, a tone completely out of his character. The war was starting to wear his down.
"The enemy are trying to drive a spearhead through the country. Lanjsk is encircled, and the OPFOR is presently just outside of Omnom. Our airforce has just completed a strike on the fleet just off our northern coast, we're still ascertaining the effect that had on the enemy force." The ageing general was a new face to the president. Most of his top-brass had risen through the ranks with him during the old regime. The appearance of an unknown general made him slightly uneasy.
"Perhaps we should open diplomatic channels to the Shakal Government?"
"With all due respect, we can still turn thi-"
"That was badly worded. Open diplomatic channels to the Shakal Government." President Tblis interrupted sharply, his true demeanour returning.
"Right away, sir".

The Government of Kalmurstan wishes to know what would it would take to resolve the present conflict amicably. We do not want another drop of blood to be spilled needlessly, and are sure you are of a similar opinion.
Attack Formation Gull
The advancing Su-27's were decimated by the missiles. Only two made it through the barrage, both of which continued charging at the fleet, determined to hit the fleet with their own aircraft.
Attack Formation Tern
"All aircraft, break off attack. Return to base, maximum speed."
The formation began to split as the missiles reached it. Pilots fought to out manoeuvre the missiles as the flights separated. Only twenty-one aircraft managed to avoid the inbound salvo and begin the return to their home base.
Omnom
Digging in, the armoured regiment prepared for the enemy forces assault. They knew they were outnumbered, but they also knew they had support en-route to assist them. They just had to hold out long enough for those reinforcements to arrive.
Lanjsk
Across the city, Kalmurstan Ground Forces scattered at the first sign of a retaliatory strike. The shelling of the city was sure to cause collateral damage, and the local populous would not be too happy about having their homes and businesses in the firing line.
The infantry took up positions in buildings, preparing for the assault.
Distad
The Eightieth Air-Mobile Regiment had departed the airbase and were travelling towards to battle forming outside Omnom. Several hundred feet below them, the Ninety-Ninth Armoured Infantry Regiment rolled on, making good time to intervene in the battle within two hours. Hopefully the troops already on site, supported by the air-mobile infantry, would be able to last that long.

2. Military Personal
3. Engineers
4. Doctors
5. Women, and Children
6. Low ranking Politicians
7. Factory Workers (Military skill linked ie. tanks etc)
Every one else will be ranked on a person by person basis

"And so it begins..." sighed the president. He really did seem to have mood swings. "Only 200 fighters against 'several' supercarriers. Those being only 500km away. Hmmm...Head Admiral, C-in-C Ground, what's the situation probably going to end like then?"
"All I can say in terms of the naval situation," said Head Admiral Tek, "is that the best we can hope for is sinking a supercarrier or two. Maybe we'll be able to sink a few destroyers and cruisers as a bonus."
"Factoring in the hastily-dug entrenchments over minute sections of the beach and the measly airforce we maintain, oh I'd say...none?" murmured General Isuka. "At least strategically. Tactically, we may be able to annoy the hell out of those enemies before they shell us to death. Not to mention the fact that Galicia is known as the Land of the Thousand Rivers for all those tiny streams."
"Interesting. I hear we've detected another group of enemy aircraft moving towards Seville?"
"Yes," responded a random advisor, "but we can't confirm it."
"So be it. Make sure the 1st Shansekian Battlegroup is ready. Get those soldiers positioned around Galicia ready as well. And definitely have those pilots, planes, and SAM's running! And boys...I said SAM's!"
50km off Spanish Coast, 1st Shansekian Battlegroup
"What a rough day..." moaned the sailor. They had been forced to help the army move artillery pieces into position and dig trenches. "Dammit, if I survive this war, I'll..."
"ALL HANDS MAN YOUR BATTLE STATIONS!" went the wailing klaxon of every ship in the fleet's PA as sailors scrambled to run to their posts. Meanwhile, communications officers and navigators scrambled to make sure they were at a complete stop to prepare. As the bridge filled with the entire staff, the captain walked up to the center of the semi-circle they had formed.
"OK then," smirked the captain of one of the two Terak-class Cruisers, the SSS Brighter Days, Captain John Swift. "We got orders from the admiral of the battlegroup. Both cruisers are to immediately open fire with Harpoons as soon as they're within range. If I remember correctly, that's something around one hundred and thirty or fourty kilometers. Until then, we're to protect ourselves and the battleship with SAM's, torpedoes, just don't use it too fast."
"Now, remember Operation Zeta-rel-Charlie. If I announce it, make sure every sailor hears it. They got to. This ship here is the bait. And finally, kids, don't jump off ship. Not even on a lifeboat. Or my dead soul will personally hunt you down and eat you alive."
As the message spread to the sailors, the captain muttered, "What a metaphorical name. This ship dies for brighter days."

Camp Lok, La Coruna
Fighters began scrambling in an anticipated attack by Shakal forces. Though outnumbered at a ratio of 2 enemy planes for each of theirs, the meager 200 fighters and their pilots were feeling quite brave. They'd be heroes if they lived to tell the tale...and there were Shansekians to tell the tale to. There had also been rumors that 26 new pilots and fighters would be coming along to help. Better than nothing.
Meanwhile, troops geared up for war, practiced a little on the IFV's and rifles, ate, slept, helped set up and maintain the SAM installations, and waited. There was really nothing else to do.

All Secretaries of all branches of the Imperial Legislation and Executive Branch has gathered on a Top Secret Military Location. discussing the current situation of the war, and the region, the whole room was filled with fear and anxiety because of the advances Greal made on the West Border. although the IAF is holding out. They could retreat whenever they see fit. And right now, they could use that power.
The room is then silenced when the King with The President and the Vice entered the room.
"All rise" Imperial Defense Coordinator General Taniada ordered,
"Please, all of you sit," the King said in a low voice,
The King is obviously without any sleep, his eyes are sore, he has eyebugs, and fatigued,
"Situation?" the King shortly said
"Sir, The Northeastern flank is collapsing, the UNAS Expeditionary Force hasn't arrived yet, but their Air Armada has arrived and greatly helped our IAF troops fighting in the Greal Front, ETA for that Force to arrive is.... tommorow 4:20AM," General Taniada said while showing the map of the eastern Front
"How's the defense going and the fortification of the Capital?" The President Asked
"Well. Mr. President, roadblocks of the Main Roads going through and out of the capital is already setted up and running, Government Buildings are routinely checked for spies, the closest probable siege of the capital will be the Emmericans if they succeed to breakthrough our Emden Defense. but this is highly unlikely to happen as we are superior to our foolish neighbor, the likely to succeed siege will be Greal or Java, these two are superior in arms and manpower, but they lack strategies, and that's where we would beat them" Major General. James Mangpatayon, Imperial Defense Coordinator of the Capital said
"Honorable Cabinet, in case we are beaten, let me assure you that we will still fight, we will stand our ground and be killed with our troops, there is no shame in fighting and getting your ass kicked, but there is no honor in not fighting at all. remember that." The King said while standing.....
The Secrataries clapped and shouted the Warcry of the IAF....
"God will be us to banish this Enemies" the Room was filled by this noise...
"Wait. i have heard on the news that Shansekia has mobilized its navy and currently fortifying their Iberian Peninsula?" the Vice President asked
"Yes Sir. Shakal has launched a detachment from the Invasion Fleet in Kalmurstan to invade Shansekia, they had fortified the whole Iberian Peninsula and has drafted ROTC's from their civilian population. our war with Emmerican has became a Regional War," Imperial Secretary in Foreign Relations Jack Connie said
"Isn't Shakal allied with Greal, Java, and Emmerican?" the President asked
"Yes Sir, they are" Jack Connie replied
"And there is a nation between Greal and Emmerican that is becoming suspicious on my view," General Taniada said
"Stokmolovi?!" the King said
"i think that's the name, Commie Nation of Stokmolovi" Taniada replied
"Well, We have ourselves East versus West, Prepare for the worst, cause were taking it. we have beaten thousands of Greal troops, and Hell we can beat thousands of Stokmolovians" the King said
"Anyway. Send a communique to the Nation of Shansekia, we'll set up a alliance with Shansekia to counter this Bastards." the King added
"Sir. another nation too has mobilized its army." Foreign Relations Magistrate Bruno informed the King
"What?! Not again. I have enough of invaders!, our lands will be divided! and i can't allow that!" the King said frustatingly
"Sir. i think that they are our allies, as they had condemned the actions of Emmerican and Greal," Bruno replied
"Is that so?" the King is relieved " Where are they?"
"On top of us." Bruno replied
"Oily Prata?. if they are really our ally, we'll have ourselves a strong ally, send them a Communique Too.... ok?" the King said
OOC: Consider that i have sent a Communique to Shansekia and Oily Prata inviting them to a alliance
Greal Front
The battle is still raging all over the cities, fortifications was destroyed and only mobile Roadblocks was used. but it is still effective, they were surprised that they have been able to hold out this far... only a few more days before the UNAS relief arrives and blast this invaders straight to hell.
General Friedrich heared from his radio a distorted message, but is quickly heard loud and clear. the voice said that they were the Dynamic Revolution Air Force dispatched here to help them. and they asked to paint targets to them for attacks.
"This is General Friedrich. Hannover Imperial Defense Forces General. Affirmative. be careful what you hit with your missiles, that could be my troops, we'll mark targets for you to bomb, Over"
The order then went out to all troops. and immediately, they have painted the Greal Strangleholds all over. including the Logistics Center in Hannover for bombing operations. other targets include a Greal Roadblock, a Greal Strongpoint. and a Greal Barracks.
OOC: Does someone have a map so I can see who is where? Thanks in advance.
Shakal Iberian Battlegroup
The long range radar systems of the Shakal vessels picked up a small enemy fleet approaching there position. Admiral Martini sat for a second pondering what they could possibly accomplish. If there was one area the Shakal had been more sucessful in during this war than any other it was at sea. He ordered that the missle cruisers launch modified tomahawk cruise missles at the enemy fleet from there current position. The order was carried out and six tomahawks from each of the thirty six missle cruisers sped for the enemy fleet at a range of around 400km.
Shakal Strike Group North
The city was within range now. The long range air to ground missles from the Shakal F-22N were launched at any enemy strong points from a range in excess of 200km. They focused of artillery positions and SAM sites that could be located along the coast.
Shakal Strike Group South
Strike group south had a different mission than there northern counterparts. They were to destroy as many enemy aircraft on the ground as possible. As such the F-22N used more precise missles and fired at the enemy airfield in the area. It would be devastated. The X-02 would engage any enemy aircraft that took to the sky using there service cieling of 75,000 ft to pounce on them before they knew what was happening.

"Why hello there General!" said Armada lead (most DR fighters are very non-formal to allies) "It seems y'all have been putting up an amazing fight, mind if we dance for a little bit? Oh yea, be advised ground forces will be moving into the area...ETA 20 Hours...Got any special requests? Errr... what I mean to say sir, is what is the enemy packing? Also where is the enemy breaking through, we'll patch it up."

Armada lead switched over to his Armada circuit...
"Boys, Phill forces have given a damn good fight, they're tired, and pretty beat up...let 'em know we're here!"
All Armada Forces that could pushed their aircraft into afterburner and broke the sound barrier, letting off huge numbers of sonic booms.
Suddenly Striker Aircraft lead came over the comm.
"Armada lead I've got tangos painted nice and bright by allies, permission to engage?"
"Green light, Green light to engage. Give 'em hell"
Using their modified A-10's the 2 strike Units began to do exactly what their aircraft were designed to do, engage (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhPwaApe4Rk) the enemy with Hellfires, TOW's, and their 30mm GAU-8 cannons.

IC:
1st Shansekian Naval Battlegroup, Admiralty Bridge on Battleship
"Multiple bogies, coming in sir! Seems like...cruise missiles! About 216 of them!" called a radar operator.
"So they started with cruise missiles instead of ASM's? Very well. Have the Brighter Days and the Telltale Vorpal unload two-hundred twenty-four Tomahawks total to intercept, seeing as we have no anti-missile system-not much, anyway. Make sure to remind them to reload, of course. Just for the fun of it, launch, say, 6 torpedoes."
A few seconds later, a wave of 224 Tomahawk cruise missiles, unmodified, headed towards the approaching enemy missiles, 112 missiles per ship launched. Meanwhile, the supply ships began to unload more missiles onto the cruiser. Within the crates were an assortment of more tomahawks and Harpoon anti-shipping missiles, for when they got within range. Meanwhile, every gun trained in the direction of the enemy missile wave's origin.
Camp Lok, La Coruna
Soldiers ran from their positions as artillery units that they had been manning seconds ago detonated in flashes of fire as missiles rained down from fighter jets over 400 km away and bombarded the cold, wet earth (OOC: Just rained). SAM's opened fire with massive wave of missiles in a last-ditch attempt to knock out the missiles, though the SAM's were built to knock out aircraft. Not just at Camp Lok, but across the coast at possible choke points. 100 fighter jets at the camp airfield scrambled into the sky within a few minutes under cover of the surviving SAM installations, some hidden from air view in hangars, under trees, and in bushes, and another 100 scrambling, as the air raid alarm rang through the base and the city as citizens scurried for cover. The Super Hornets, once in the sky, aided in shooting down missiles while waiting for the Shakal Strike Group South to attack them. As they had no knowledge of Shakal F-22N's or X-02's, they had no idea how they would have to maneuver. A pretty bad disadvantage, especially when they were already outnumbered 2 to 1.
Losses:
-12 Artillery Controllers KIA
-52 Artillery Controllers MIA, WIA, or Condition Unknown
-No loss in troopers
-60 Artillery Pieces (10 Surviving)
-89 SAM installations (26 Surviving)
EMERGENCY IMPERIAL CABINET MEETING
CLASSIFIED LOCATION
INVASION DAY
20 HOURS, 23 MINUTES
All Secretaries of all branches of the Imperial Legislation and Executive Branch has gathered on a Top Secret Military Location. discussing the current situation of the war, and the region, the whole room was filled with fear and anxiety because of the advances Greal made on the West Border. although the IAF is holding out. They could retreat whenever they see fit. And right now, they could use that power.
The room is then silenced when the King with The President and the Vice entered the room.
"All rise" Imperial Defense Coordinator General Taniada ordered,
"Please, all of you sit," the King said in a low voice,
The King is obviously without any sleep, his eyes are sore, he has eyebugs, and fatigued,
"Situation?" the King shortly said
"Sir, The Northeastern flank is collapsing, the UNAS Expeditionary Force hasn't arrived yet, but their Air Armada has arrived and greatly helped our IAF troops fighting in the Greal Front, ETA for that Force to arrive is.... tommorow 4:20AM," General Taniada said while showing the map of the eastern Front
"How's the defense going and the fortification of the Capital?" The President Asked
"Well. Mr. President, roadblocks of the Main Roads going through and out of the capital is already setted up and running, Government Buildings are routinely checked for spies, the closest probable siege of the capital will be the Emmericans if they succeed to breakthrough our Emden Defense. but this is highly unlikely to happen as we are superior to our foolish neighbor, the likely to succeed siege will be Greal or Java, these two are superior in arms and manpower, but they lack strategies, and that's where we would beat them" Major General.

Greal Front
More Greal fighters were blasting targets in the cities, a another barrage of cruise missiles came from another new naval fleet that had arrived. There was some calm around the city, but fighting continued at the Logistics center.
300,000 Greal troops went around the cities and advanced further into the countryside, they had to attack the enemy quickly, relief was expected from 30 more divisions waiting.
OOC: sorry for the short post.

Outside Omnom
A small team of spotters for the artillery watched the Shakal advance slow to a halt.
"Why are they stopping? They've got the power to roll right over our positions."
"I don't know. Yosef, get in touch with command, see if they can tell us anything. Until we've certain of what's going on I don't want a single bullet fired or artillery strike directed."
For a few minutes there was a tense stand-off. Every time the enemy so much as looked around, the spotters prepared to request a fresh set of strikes.
"Command confirms a temporary cease-fire is in effect. Some sort of preliminary negotiations to end this thing are getting underway."
Communiqué to Shakal
We appreciate the gesture of good faith and will reply in kind. All troops currently under the command of the Kalmurstan Armed Forces have been ordered to observe a cease-fire.
We suggest negotiations to end this conflict are carried out in either Lanjsk itself, or Kraskolm the the north-east. If these are not acceptable to you, we are open to any suggestions you may have as to the location.
Communiqué to Dynamic Revolution

IC:50 KM from Greal lines
"Tango, Tango you have confirmation to engage. Gamma will be flying escort.
"Roger Alpha. Engaging now."
30 Tu-160 Blackjack bombers flared their afterburners, powering into the Greal lines, with 22 F-35s loaded with Sidewinders and Multi-band Radar Jammers primed their weapons and fell into a box position. Less than 5 minutes later, the Tupolovs opened their Bomb Bay Doors, preparing to drop on the massed army below, in order to clear the garrison. CBU-97 cluster bomes for tanks, GBU-31 JDAMS for the entrenched structures, Napalm-878 Cluster Bomb to clear unprotected infantry.
"Tango, Clear to Engage!"
AThe Blackjacks performed a violent decelaration within striking range, before launching 1.1 Million Kilogrammes of death at the enemy. The F-35s peeled off, preparing to engage enemy craft.
There was no escaping.

But, as the enemy bombers approached the Greal bases, Lyran SAM launchers, DMG Sentinel SAM Launchers and Firestrom Missile launchers fired their missiles, they were modified to fight against enemy missiles, during that time. Greal pilots went toward their fighters to engage the enemy. SAM missiles were heading toward the enemy as it was minutes away from bombing the Greal bases.

One moment the countryside was empty, the next Greal fighters were flying in the sky, tanks and infantry and mobile SAM units and Humvees were moving into the countryside. The 300,000 Greal troops had heard from satellite images that a enemy army was coming toward them, so they were ready, artillery positions were set up, with their deadly 155mm guns.
The cities continued to see little fighting, all that was left of the cities was mostly rubble. Greal tanks blasted every building in their path, they were determined to fight, it was a kind of a stalemate, bu soon, a massive Greal army would arrived and swamp the cities.

The F-35's came into action, locking HARMs against the ground units firing missiles against the retreating bomber force. They surfed the radar beams locking onto the bombers towards the launchers, culminating in a moderately-sized explosion.

Half of the Skyflash missiles made it, because electronic jamming was malfunctioning the other half. 5 Greal Vipers went down immediately. More SAMs opened up on the bombers and enemy aircraft.
OOC: Basically a glorification of my delgate arriving at the Lajnsk Kremlin. Plus some commander to soldier joking, just because of my good mood today.
Shakal Kalmurstan Fleet
Grand Admiral Conners was nervous. She had never had to negotiate a treaty before, a cease-fire yes, but that was easy, it was on her ship, in her fleet, with one hundred and fifty destroyed enemy vessels at the bottom of the ocean under her. The fact that the Kalmurstan government had picked her made her even more self concious, not an easy feat. She stood in front of the mirror making sure she was dressed "appropraitly" for the situation. That meant the black leather overcoat over her white shirt and dress pants. She didnt like it, but it was the "official" style. She put on her white fleet hat and hoped that the delegate from Kalmurstan would take her seriously, she was oly 19 after all. Conners left the room and headed for the helicoptor that would bring her to Lajnsk.
Shakal Kalmurstan Armee HQ, Outside Lajnsk
"Its about time you got here." Derrick said almost tugging Conner's out of the helicoptor. "Hurry up, we need to get you ready." He added as they headed for the tent set up attacked to a tank.
"I am ready..." Conners said as Derrick put her in the tent.
"No your not! Do you even have an idea for the treaty yet?" Without waiting for her to answer Derrick continued. "Thats what I thought, now, listen carefully."
"I can hand-"
"Shut up and listen." Conners glared at Derrick.
"Hey, I outrank-"
"Sammy I said shut the f*ck up, and no you dont!" Derrick continued walking back and forth across the tent picking up papers. "There are only two HFM in the Empire. How many Grand Admirals are there?" Conners rolled her eyes and listened. "There are a FIVE base points that we cannot go without." He paused. "Do you get it?" Another split second interlude, "Ok good, here they are." He handed over a piece of paper and continued. "You may add up to five points of your choosing, but from our studies we think it is doubtful they will accept that many stipulations, if they are willing to agree, cut one out just to make them feel better." He paused for a small breath and heard a voice through his earpiece. "Ok we are out of time." He quickly walked over and yanked her out of her chair as quick as he had put her into it.
"Bu-" Conners tried feebly to interject. Derrick was still speaking.
"Now, remember, COURTESY and PATIENCE." Derrick stood behind her as he set her in front of a mirror. He pulled back on her shoulders making her stand striaghter. "Stand up straight." He took off her cap and handed her a bruch for her blonde hair. "Dont get ruffled feathers." She handed the brush back as he quickly set the cap back on. He spun her around quickly and with his fingers gently brushed any dirt off the leather coat. "Dont scoff them." He turned her back to hte mirror and tossed her a tube of lipstick.
"What do you thi-" She was cut off yet again.
"Dont be snide, and above all." Derrick took the lipstick and straightened her cap more. "If you forget everything else just remember-"
"I know I know!" Conner said. "Dont be myself. I get it. I am older than you remember?" She said turning around. Derrick looked so stressed.
"Exactly!" Derrick said. He quickly brush a bit off missed dust off the coat and undid the top button. "There! Perfect!" He said almost to himself. "Now your ready." He said shoving her out the door towards the white armored Mercedes S-Class as it drove into Lajnsk escorted by six MBT and there full compliment of men.
"Wow!" Said the guardsman as he saw her get into the car. He had always heard of the Admiral Conners, but never seen her. She looked just like the pictures.
"I am a miricale worker." Derrick said pretending to wipe a tear off his face as he smiled. The guard laughed.
"Sir, if you dont mind me asking-"
"Yes private, I do get to tap that when I go home each night."

Grand Admiral Conners will be awaiting General-Armii Kuzma Zolnerowich at the Lajnsk Kremlin. We expect the meeting to prove acceptable to all the involved parties.

17-02-2008, 06:35
Zolnerowich gazed wearily at the outside world as the ZiL wound its way though the city streets. He tried to figure out how long it had been since he first heard about the invasion. Was it a week ago? More? Less? It didn't matter. He had the opportunity to end the war today. His attention was drawn back into the car by one of the guards travelling with him.
"What do you think they will ask for?"
"Money? Land? I can't say, all I know is that they are willing to talk, and every minute we spend negotiating is a minute we aren't killing each other."
"And a minute we can use to reinforce our lines."
Kuzma rolled his eyes, "I don't know what you think we're doing today, but I'll tell you now we are not playing for time. We have the manpower to continue fighting. We've got planes all over the country we could keep on assaulting them with, but was is not a game. If I get offered a fair deal, you can bet every ruble in your pocket I'll take it. No-one wants this war to continue. I don't, you don't, the men and women of Shakal's armed forces sure as hell don't."
"Sorry, sir, I just thought-"
"A dangerous thing, thought, especially in your position. How old are you?"
"Twenty-three, sir."
"I've been in this army since you were still at your mothers breast. I'll let you in on a secret. You only get paid to think once you're commissioned. Until then, you're paid to obey. If you remember that, and live by it, you'll go far."
"Understood, sir."
Zolnerowich grinned and turned back to the window, watching at the dominant form of the Kremlin came into view. It wouldn't be long now. He straightened his tie, and quickly combed his hair one final time, dropping the comb back into his pocket and adjusting his ushanka as the car eased to a halt outside the Lanjsk Kremlin. Seconds later, the door was opened for him and he stepped out, straightening up and admiring the scenery. Ten years had passed since he had last set foot within this building, yet the grounds looked exactly as he remembered them. He gestured for his security detail.
"You, find the Shakal representative and let him know we're here. Come find me as soon as they know. I'm going inside, you five, come with me. I want you two to stay here with the cars. Understand? Good, let's go."
Conners watched out the window of the building as the car pulled up. The tanks were ready outside incase anything bad happened. She saw a man wearing an ushanka and knew he was the delegate. A man with age and experience under him far outweighing her own. Alone she opened the door and walked towards the man he was most likely sending to fetch her. It would prove an interesting meeting, to say the least. "Hello." She said greeting the guard sent to meet her. "I am Grand Admiral Samantha Conners. The Shakal representitive at this meeting."

Kuzma eyed the woman before him. This was unexpected. He'd expected Grand Admiral Conners to be a man of his own generation. Instead, Conners was a woman, and young enough to be his daughter. Just. He smiled broadly and paced towards her, signalling his guards to drop back slightly.
"Grand Admiral, it is good to meet you, especially under these circumstances. Hopefully today we can write the next page in both our nations history books. Come, let us not linger here in the cold. I believe we have much to discuss."
"Good to meet you too sir." Conners said. "The cold here is really not to terrible." Conners fell into step beside the man as they walked up into the warmer building. "I only hope that this peace will last." She was very nervous now, the other delegates age and overall aura of calm gave her the impression that this man was not a well versed politicial, but a good soldier.

"Peace. Yes, it is indeed for the best if it holds. I think we can both agree there's been too much bloodshed in this war. Hopefully we can work out an amicable end to this debacle."
He stopped besides a large oak door and removed the ushanka from his head, tucking it under his left arm.
"This is our room.", He turned the handle and pushed the large door open, walking in to the large office. "Just as I remember it. I would have thought they'd have redecorated in the decade I've been gone. Budget cuts, I suppose. But listen to me, talking about painting when there are more important matters at hand. Come, sit down, we have much to do and time waits for none of us."
"Tell me about it." Conners said under her breathe. She bit her tongue immediatly after saying it. Sometimes she really hated the Empress, giving these people choices. Derrick was far more diplomatic and patient than she could ever be. She sat down and held a thin stack of papers on her lap. The leather coat was large and awkward to sit in. At least it helped conceal her knees from shaking because of both the cold and the meeting. "General-Armii, as you most likely are aware for this peace to take place we will need something in return. Now, while our troops may be fierce in war the Shakal people are also wise and kind enough to appreciate that an enemy is only an enemy so long as they are willing to be."
Outside Lajnsk
Derrick looked around. His troops were in small groups around fires they had made by cutting down trees. Most were also sipping coffee or another hot beverage, while the weather was not so cold, the atnosphere was what could only be described as merry. The men and women were happy that they would be going home soon enough. Derrick looked at the soldiers from Kalmurstan as they remained in the city. He had allowed supplies to enter the city as soon as the cease-fire was called, but he had another thought. With an order a company of unarmed men left the Shakal camp in a few trucks carrying a stove unit and some food and drink for them. After all, it was no fun crushing your enemy if they werent well fed and rested. The Shakal only considered these men enemies as long as the feeling was returned.

"Of course, no-one expects you to up stakes and return to your motherland because we ask you to. As with anything, there is n element of back-scratching, yes? You scratch mine, I'll scratch yours, no?" He chuckled loudly. "So, no doubt you have your cards ready, yes? You know what your government wants from my government, and I would also like to know. Hopefully we can reach an agreement on the terms quickly and efficiently."
Lanjsk
There was a palpable feeling of relief amongst the Kalmurstan ranks. Even though it was still a possibility, most had put the renewal of hostilities out of their minds. For the first time since the war had started they felt safe. The siege had been difficult, but not nearly as harsh is it could have been. There had been food available, even if some of the more choice items had started to spoil.
It was a time of high-spirits and celebrations. The citizens of Lanjsk provided beer and vodka to the troops, who drank both with little coercion. Some forewent the festivities and maintained a state of readiness. It was these who spotted the Shakal trucks and signalled for them to stop.
"Yes, my government has given me 5 points that they say must be met in order for the peace to be concluded between us. The others are negotiable." Conners decided to wait for a moment on that front and continued. "What is it exactly sir that you expect from these negotiations?"
Lajnsk
The Shakal trucks stopped and explained to the still vigilant sentries thatthe cargo was stoves and some cookable food. They were even told that they were allowed to look into the trucks if they felt it needed to be done.

Zolnerowich smiled. Conners wanted to get right to the meat and bones of the deal. He liked that, it showed dedication and guts. "Ideally, my government would like a full withdrawal of Shakal forces from our territory. We do understand that this may be a lot to ask of your government, and that they may not wish to do so. That is why these things are called negotiations. I'm sure you will find us to be most accommodating."
Lanjsk
They may have been vigilant, but they weren't going to waste their time searching the truck. They could see the men were unarmed in the cab, they weren't about to unload the entire cargo on the off chance they were hiding weapons. The four soldiers grinned at their Shakal counterparts and waved them through the checkpoint.

Shansekia was in trouble, Phil was being beaten back, and Kalmurstan was folding. General Westinghouse rubbed his eyes, this war was not going well. Shakal had formed a fleet that rivaled the combined fleet of Dynamic Revolution, there was no way Shan could hold out for long. General Westinghouse had sent 2 Corps of Army Engineers to fortify the border with Shansekia. They were building bunkers, tank traps, tiger pits, punji sticks, countless mine fields, bunkers for tanks SAM's and people, the list went on. The Pyrenees Mountains were a natural choke point. They created very few natural passes, so the ones that were there were extremely well barricaded. The southern end lead to a dessert mountain climate, it would be difficult on troops and machinery both. The northern end was much flatter, and not dessert. However it was smaller and would allow fewer troops to move through at a time.

OOC: My ships aren't moving, they're sitting ducks, waiting for yeh missile strike. Which has come! BTW, plz be more precise on the locations and distances of these things. I'm gonna assume a little here.
IC:
1st Shansekian Naval Battlegroup, Admiralty Bridge on Battleship
"Multiple bogies, coming in sir! Seems like...cruise missiles! About 216 of them!" called a radar operator.
"So they started with cruise missiles instead of ASM's? Very well. Have the Brighter Days and the Telltale Vorpal unload two-hundred twenty-four Tomahawks total to intercept, seeing as we have no anti-missile system-not much, anyway. Make sure to remind them to reload, of course. Just for the fun of it, launch, say, 6 torpedoes."
A few seconds later, a wave of 224 Tomahawk cruise missiles, unmodified, headed towards the approaching enemy missiles, 112 missiles per ship launched. Meanwhile, the supply ships began to unload more missiles onto the cruiser. Within the crates were an assortment of more tomahawks and Harpoon anti-shipping missiles, for when they got within range. Meanwhile, every gun trained in the direction of the enemy missile wave's origin.
Camp Lok, La Coruna
Soldiers ran from their positions as artillery units that they had been manning seconds ago detonated in flashes of fire as missiles rained down from fighter jets over 400 km away and bombarded the cold, wet earth (OOC: Just rained). SAM's opened fire with massive wave of missiles in a last-ditch attempt to knock out the missiles, though the SAM's were built to knock out aircraft. Not just at Camp Lok, but across the coast at possible choke points. 100 fighter jets at the camp airfield scrambled into the sky within a few minutes under cover of the surviving SAM installations, some hidden from air view in hangars, under trees, and in bushes, and another 100 scrambling, as the air raid alarm rang through the base and the city as citizens scurried for cover. The Super Hornets, once in the sky, aided in shooting down missiles while waiting for the Shakal Strike Group South to attack them. As they had no knowledge of Shakal F-22N's or X-02's, they had no idea how they would have to maneuver. A pretty bad disadvantage, especially when they were already outnumbered 2 to 1.
Losses:
-12 Artillery Controllers KIA
-52 Artillery Controllers MIA, WIA, or Condition Unknown
-No loss in troopers
-60 Artillery Pieces (10 Surviving)
-89 SAM installations (26 Surviving)
OOC: Don't know if you noticed this, Shakal. :D Anyway, might as well add on:
Shansek
The city was littered like a horror movie with newspapers and, for some reason, tumbleweeds (it was believed the Tumbleweed Guy lost his cargo) floated across the city as millions of citizens packed up their bags and glanced at their tickets. Everyone had a ticket, and each ticket had a number from 1 to 1000. These were the wave numbers, and would tell them what wave of buses, trucks, and assorted vehicles they were to load onto. The official evacuation path had not been decided, and everyone had a few days to tie up loose ends. The same was going on across Shansekia as citizens received the sudden notice to prepare to evacuate to France; all non-essential civilians at least. Some were staying behind to produce as many tanks, weapons, and missiles as they could, until the very last minute with Shakal troops knocking on the door to their factories, or because they would be part of their local militias that would make sure urban fighting was very, very, very difficult. Some roofs had holes cut in them to allow hidden mortars and artillery pieces to be fired and .40 cal machine guns, bazookas, and RPG's littered the windows of cities and even towns.
Farmland
"Whoo-wee, that's some manure!" shouted a man over the exhaust of his flamethrower as he carbonized it-along with a live cow. Moving on, he started working on getting the grain to light up.
"Seriously!" shouted another man, a few feet away. He was taking care of the compost pile and the barn. "You wouldn't believe how bad it smells over here. How do these farmer guys do it?"
"Probably have clothespins or something. Well, they won't be farming Shansekia anytime soon. With all the earth-burning squads around..." the man noted as he accidentally set his favorite boots on fire. "DAMN, NOT MY BOOTS!!!"
"Stop, drop, and roll!" laughed the other man at the compost, as the first rolled around in half-burnt manure trying to put out the small fire on it.
OOC: No Shan I actually missed that. Sorry about that...
IC:
Shakal Iberian Battlegroup
The Shakal fleet continued towards the enemy fleet. Closing at a distance of 300km now the Shakal readied to launch another wave. They outnumbered the enemy and were armed with many many ways to protect itself. Admiral Martini decided to send another wave of cruise missles to take out the enemy navy while remaining out of the range of there ASM. He also ordered the landing craft to prepare for a landing.
Shakal Strike Group North
The Shakal aircraft knew they outnumbered the enemy and would use that to there advantage. Half of the aircraft flew up to an elevation of fifty thousand feet and left the other hundred to attack as normal. They were now withing 300km of the camp. They sent another 80 anti-ground missles at the prepared enemy positions hoping to weaken them more. In another 100km the X-02 would be in range to fire long range anti-air missles, however they would wait until the enemy would have less time to react before attacking.

"Well, I hope a fair and honorable agreement will be reached between us." Conners paused. "Now I suppose we should get down to our demands, since as you know, our war machine could use these troops on newer fronts that now exist." She pulled out a piece of paper. "Our first and from what I understand most critical demand is that Kalmurstan pay a negotiable portion of its crops and other material resources to the Empire." Conners stopped. The number it said was 50%, but it also said that if the people of Kalmurstan could not keep up this rate of sending negioation could be agreed upon.

Kuzma leant forwards, drumming his fingers on the tabletop. "Depending on what other resources you need it may be different, but our national crop output is carefully monitored and managed to ensure we minimise wastage. We will obviously be able to scale up the output, possibly to provide a twenty percent surplus, but that will obviously take time." He sat back in his chair, scratching his chin. "That will be acceptable? Yes?"

Colonel O'Neil leaned against his Gov. issued pickup. The day had been hard, and he was tired. He looked at the farmhouse who belonged to God knew who. His men had knocked on the door and an old man had answered. After briefly talking to the farmer his two men began walking back towards the truck. O'Neil was relieved. The nation was preparing for a siege, and as such all private farmland was being turned over to the government. If the farmers refused to give up their land, they were shot. It was as simple as that.
Tomorrow or the next day and army of men would descend on this land with mining equipment. They would build a multi-layer farm underground, ten times as big as the current one. Hydrogen powered generators would power UV lights installed to sun the crops. If the farmer had agreed he would continue to farm the land, albeit underground. The government would supply him with the needed workers, and other than that his life would change very little. Without the farmer the same thing would happen, minus, of course, the farmer.
The impending influx of refugees was going to tax the producing abilities of the nation. With these new techniques it was hoped that there would be enough food to go around.

"Well, my government specified only grain. However, a suitable compensation could be reached if your government also is willing to send us 3% of your total tin production we could settle on 10% of the crop amount." Conners hoped that would prove satisfactory. "While we are discussing the economic details I feel obliged to also mention that the Shakal Imperial Armament Company is to be allowed to aquire three factories in Kalmurstan. If you can agree to both these points, then two of our requests will have been met."

The General-Armii glanced quickly around the room. "Ten percent of the production of grain is agreeable to us, as is three percent of our tin. As for the factories, at present all industry is operated by the state. An external arms company owing and operating three factories does not sit well with me, and could potentially upset the delicate balance and set a dangerous precedent to those here who wold like more private industry. As such, I have to say I find that option unpalatable at best."
"Although I believe that the Kalmurstan government could handle the event, the factories can be dealt with at a later date." Conners paused. "The third point my goverment wishes is that a small Shakal garrison be allowed to remain on Kalmurstan soil. The number would not exceed a divison of troops." She waited to gauge the reaction. "In compensation we also are not going to force any members of your country to work or step down from any leadership positions. However, if you do not already do so your government must agree to allow the people a say in your government." Conners couldnt help but smile, that was almost hypocritical. The Shakal government was ruled by the Empress, sure it had a House Of Representitives, but if the Empress didnt approve of a bill they were attempting to pass she could simply say no.

Cpl. Chan was jolted out of his day dream by a bump in the road. He looked out of the firing position he was to man in the BMP, there was only trees and grass. He looked at his fellow squad members in the BMP with him and they all were either asleep or looking out of their firing position. Cpl. Chan and his squadmates were in one of the nearly 500 vehicles that consisted of the 35th Armored Calvary Unit. Along with the 100 BMP's were 25 Bradley Fighting Vehicles, and the 25 Leopard 2E MBT's. The remaining 350 vehicles were Duece-and-halfs for logistics and troop transport. They slowly wound their way towards the encircled Philipinadia forces.

Conners replied. She cursed internally at her governments lack of intelligence. The sheet said the Kalmurstan government was an evil dictatorship, she looked closer and noticed small printing underneath that was actually saying 'Report may nt be accurate' She shook her head in shock.

And do not worry, we have all had our share of bad intel in our careers. Sometimes there is an international stigma attached to isolationist, communist nations which can cloud the vision of all but the best." He smiled broadly at Conners, having learnt decades ago a facade of friendship could stretch a long way during any negotiation.

"The purpose of the troops would be to protect the military base we would set up." Conners replied honestly. "It would be located right where our troops landed, an isolated location to say the least." The reply would not please the man, but the truth remained, the Shakal outnumbered the enemy 2:1 in troops total. Not to mention outside the city 50,000 men were ready to go at a moments notice. This was a peace negotiation brought on by Kalmurstan, not a return to status quo agreement. "The final issue of my governments deal is that your airforce be limited in size. How much they have left up to me."

"Well, from what I have seen of its effect on the vessels of my navy. I would venture to say that a reduction from the pre-war current number of aircraft at 1714 to a maximum of 1000 would prove effective. It is a large percentage I know, but we simply cannot allow such a strong air force to be in a position in which to strike the Empire." Conners knew full well that the Kalmurstan airforce had been there most effective military branch during the war, causing more casualties than the navy and land forces combined. "This number is 42% reduction." She added. The enemy would not get out of this without some form of payment.

You're as good as asking me to scrap every other plane we have, to slash thousands of jobs across the service. That is not acceptable. You can share in our crops and metals, you can position troops on our lands, but you are not crippling our air power. Not to that extent. Not because you're unhappy we were able to sink some of your toys."
The General-Armii was physically shaking, his voice, whilst not quite shouting, was certainly close. He paused for a few moments to regain himself.

Lance leader Stallion 6 got comfortable in his cockpit. His lance was going to be part of the largest air armada in the history of Dynamic Revolution. Stallion looked at the other 7 members of his lance. They were the pinnacle of ground attack skill.Combined with the 20 other lances they formed the very best Dynamic Revolutionary close air support, The Fallen Angels (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhPwaApe4Rk) squadron. They flew the improved A-10 II G's. They had been given extra power with new engines. Together with the the other close air support squadrons; The Avenging Angels, The Strike Eagles (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJDxHMjgHCI&feature=related), and The Hell Fish. The Avenging Angels flew A-10 II G's and the Eagles and Fish flew Tornadoes. Protecting the ground attack aircraft would be 5 squadrons. 3 were flying SU-37's, 1 squadron was flying SU-47's and 1 was flying F-22's.

Hell Fish, Fallen Angels, Avenging Angels, and Strike Eagles dont worry about the fighter aircraft. Let us handle them. Good Luck and Gods speed." And with that Armada Lead signed off. His aircraft would reach Phill airspace in under a minute. Idly he wondered how many of his men would make it out. No, that type of thinking was counter productive. All his men were graduates of STRIKE School. They were the best. They would do allright. Looking at his GPS in the cockpit of his F-22, Armada Lead realized He was crossing into Phill airspace, he changed the frequency on his mic.
"Eagle's Nest this is Air Armada Rebuttal Lead of Dynamic Revolution. We are entering your airspace. We apologize for not being invited, but we couldn't stay away from this party. We have close to 1500 aircraft with no where to go...We thought you might need a hand, tell us where you want the ordinance. Oh, and one other thing, Is there any chance of getting a refuel...If you have 10 or so KC-130 send 'em up...we'll land others to make it quicker. We could make it to the line, but we'd be close to bingo fuel, and wouldn't be able to dance much."

"Rebuttal this is lead, We just got confermation from base that Phill downstairs got our message. They are in desperate need of assistance. Base has sent me a message giving me the coordinates of our TO (Theater of Operations). Once we arrive on scene we are supposed to make contact with lead ground elements and they'll tell us where to lay down the pain. In addition forward base Foxtrot has scrambled 20 Il-76 IFR planes. All remaining planes are told to land at Foxtrot, Civilian base Archer civy base McLennin and National Guard base Ellington for refuel. After re-supply we will break into 2 groups, strike team 1 and strike team 2. We are gonna hit them from 2 different angles. Rebuttal lead out."
Capt. Scott looked at his flight. They were cool under the pressure. Switching on his comm he spoke to his flight.
"Boys I just got the word, we are to re-fuel at tanker Big Fat Friendly...uhhhh you can finish the rest. The tankers are going to fly with us to the target area, we are on strike team 2."

The air armada closed on their targets.
Greal Front:
"Any Phil forces in the area this is Armada lead. We have tons of ordinance and no place to put it, tell us where you want it. Paint the target with lasers and we'll obliterate it"
The air superiority fighters went to 3000 meters in altitude and hovered like hawks, daring any enemy fighters to show themselves. The strike aircraft stayed at or below 30 meters to keep them under the radar balloon

"Why hello there General!" said Armada lead (most DR fighters are very non-formal to allies) "It seems y'all have been putting up an amazing fight, mind if we dance for a little bit? Oh yea, be advised ground forces will be moving into the area...ETA 20 Hours...Got any special requests? Errr... what I mean to say sir, is what is the enemy packing? Also where is the enemy breaking through, we'll patch it up."

Armada lead switched over to his Armada circuit...
"Boys, Phill forces have given a damn good fight, they're tired, and pretty beat up...let 'em know we're here!"
All Armada Forces that could pushed their aircraft into afterburner and broke the sound barrier, letting off huge numbers of sonic booms.
Suddenly Striker Aircraft lead came over the comm.
"Armada lead I've got tangos painted nice and bright by allies, permission to engage?"
"Green light, Green light to engage. Give 'em hell"
Using their modified A-10's the 2 strike Units began to do exactly what their aircraft were designed to do, engage (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhPwaApe4Rk) the enemy with Hellfires, TOW's, and their 30mm GAU-8 cannons.

"We have no reason to attack your empire. Need I remind you who started this war? As you have said, our air forces are strong, and we will not turn out eagle into a pigeon. Forty-two percent? You're as good as asking me to scrap every other plane we have, to slash thousands of jobs across the service. That is not acceptable. You can share in our crops and metals, you can position troops on our lands, but you are not crippling our air power. Not to that extent. Not because you're unhappy we were able to sink some of your toys."
The General-Armii was physically shaking, his voice, whilst not quite shouting, was certainly close. He paused for a few moments to regain himself.
"We will give you ten percent of our crops, three percent of our tin, one division on our soil, two factories for your Imperial Armament Company and a ten percent reduction in our air force."
Conners knew she had cracked the man. She had apaprantly hit a soft spot. It made her almost suspicious of future intentions of the Kalmurstan government. "I believe a comprise can be reached.

The Shakal fleet continued towards the enemy fleet. Closing at a distance of 300km now the Shakal readied to launch another wave. They outnumbered the enemy and were armed with many many ways to protect itself. Admiral Martini decided to send another wave of cruise missles to take out the enemy navy while remaining out of the range of there ASM. He also ordered the landing craft to prepare for a landing.
Shakal Strike Group North
The Shakal aircraft knew they outnumbered the enemy and would use that to there advantage. Half of the aircraft flew up to an elevation of fifty thousand feet and left the other hundred to attack as normal. They were now withing 300km of the camp. They sent another 80 anti-ground missles at the prepared enemy positions hoping to weaken them more. In another 100km the X-02 would be in range to fire long range anti-air missles, however they would wait until the enemy would have less time to react before attacking.

He leant back in his chair, smiling slightly. Concessions had been necessary from the outset, he, and those above him, knew and understood this. They were, for all intents and purposes, the losers of this war. Their surrender was going to cost them, but he was impressed by how little is actually did cost them, compared to some of the suggestions made by his own superiors in the hours before negotiations began.
"We will send crops and tin to your nation, allow one division of your troops to be garrisoned permanently within Kalmurstan and allow two factories to be take over and run by your nation. In addition, we will reduce the number of aircraft in our air force by fifteen percent, and will cease all hostile acts towards your nation.

"More cruise missiles on radar!" shouted the radar man on the battleship over the radio. Captain Swift sighed. Sheesh, another missile wave. he thought absentmindedly. Get creative... "Okay then, whatever. A hundred missiles off this cruiser, and I assume the other cruiser will fire a hundred. Like it's supposed to. Our extra ten missiles will, obviously, be targeted at one of their missile cruisers instead of their missiles. I don't care what the other ship is doing."
"Sir, that would leave us with only 12 of our original tomahawks." remarked one of the gun controllers over the radio. "I mean, we do have more now that the supply ship has dropped off six hundred and seventy-four more, but seriously, it's not like the supply ship has an infinite load of missiles. I mean, I think those six hundred-ish is the last reload we're getting..."
"Ehhhh," skkkkkkriiitched the captain's voice over the radio. The feedback was terrible, and the crew cringed as their eardrums felt as if they would implode. "Who cares.

"More and more and more and more missiles..." sighed the admiral. "Sheesh, they've probably sent their amphibious assault ships around us...and they're probably closer by now. Do we have any confirmed hits, radar operator?"
"Nope, the radars have been pretty scrambled by the constant missile wa--'bout 360 missiles heading towards us." announced the operator in a calm tone.
"You know, I really feel like banging my head against that window." murmured the admiral. "I bet they're pretty annoyed too. Hmm...with only one hundred and twelve missiles per cruiser...even with the battleship's thirty-two VLS cells, we can't counter with sheer numbers. A hundred and four will make it through, and that's with a one to one hit ratio." The admiral threw a piece of paper that was supposed to be the after-battle report form. "Well then, boys and girls, we're going to the bottom of the sea! Drop the mines."
The salvo of 256 Shansekian missiles fired and failed dismally against Shakalian missiles, only knocking out 212. A full 132 anti-ship missiles and 16 cruise missiles crashed into the two cruisers and single battleship, ripping apart their armor and burrowing deep into the hull. Klaxons blared as tens of sailors died nearly instantly from the flash fires and explosions of direct impact, and hundreds more died as they attempted to dodge through the burning corridors of their ships to the relative safety of their lifeboats and few helicopters. Meanwhile, an enemy anti-ship missile managed to hit the battleship's two nuclear reactors. Radioactive water and fuel rods poured into the sea, and would continue to kill surviving sailors for years to come with it's invisible wrath.
"Arrgggggh..." groaned the admiral, who was struggling to keep his head above water in the sinking bridge. "Dammit glas-" the admiral coughed out, his lungs working hard to pump vital oxygen to his dying body. "-sss, break!" With a final burst of energy, he punched through the window, shattering it and letting the circular shards of safety glass rain down on him. Turning-no, swimming around, he regarded the surviving bridge mates. "Cmon', guys, through the - ehack! - hatch!" laughed out the admiral.
"But sir, how about you?" groaned the operator. "We can't - ahhh-haccCKK-HCCK - leave you behind!"
"It's - ACCKkkKkk - kay, son, just get out! I-I have something in my-y foot, can't swim far enough to reach the-he hole. And I'm-m-m old. And I'm-m-m real, real cold-d-d. Just-just tell my wife I loved her, and tell the - AHHHCKCKCKCK!"
"Sir? Sir?" shouted the operator, as the others started crawling out through the hole in the window. "You okay?" He swam up to the admiral and felt for a pulse.
"I'm-I'm going to be fine. Ju-just tell the kids, I did this for them. Every minute, every hour we held them-em off, was another hour to run...go! Go now! I'll-I'll die in my watery grave."
"Sir, one last thing..." the operator whispered, taking a tea bag out of his soaked jean pocket. "Your tea. It's late."
The admiral smiled. "Ahh, Earl Grey. At least I die-with some nice tea."
And as the bridge crew crawled out of the bridge and joined there fellow seamen in the lifeboats, the admiral said his final words. "I wonder if Shakalians...like Earl Grey."

Admiral Martini watched as the enmy on his radar dissappeared. It felt good. He ordered the fleet to continue in a north easterly direction, towards the bay of Biscay. Thanks to the peace agreement between the Shakal and Kalmurstan those troops would be moved to this front, along with the 5 carriers and there escorts. The fleet would join around 400km north west of La Coruna. The AAV now were cleared to begin landings, and thanks to the Shakal Luftwaffe softening the enemy resistance could be crushed.

The AAV began to prepare to launch there troops. The first wave consited of hundreds of thousands of men and material all ready to advance. The AAV CAS aircraft, both Harriers and A-10's took off anf were given orders to attack any enemy bunker or armor they respectivly encountered. The Shakal Marine Sturm Truppen would lead the attack. After several minutes of preperation the klaxons rang signalling the time for the assult to begin. The coast was lit up in the early morning light by the launch of 44 missles at any enemy positions that were discovered by the air forces on there attack that had been missed.

Just as the attack began in the north the forces in the south of the country began to ready for the landing, which was scheduled to take place some 10 minutes after the landings in the north. The troops sat ready in there ships all waiting to head towards the designated landing zone on the beaches west of Seville.

Pvt. Collins scraped out the remaining debris that was in his foxhole. The 2nd Mountaineer Division had met up with the 22nd Engineer Battalion and were creating defensive works, the likes of which had never been seen. 50 gallon drums filled with napalm covered the front, hidden tiger pits and punji sticks were everywhere. The defenses had allowed for some creativity on the Combat Engineers parts. The engineers had dug pits, lined them with concrete and filled them with industrial waste. Much of the sludge was considered level 4 hazardous waste. The defensive works continued, including tank traps, mines, claymores, hidden sniper stands, and much much more. The Pyranese Mountains had been turned into a fortress.
In the cities accross DR factories had been converted into weapons manufacturing. They were pumping out tanks and small arms at an alarming rate. However not all weapons were headed to the front. Many of the AK-74's and FAMAS rifles being produced were being haded out to civilians, who would in turn stockpile ammunition in their homes. RPG-29's were being handed out to anyone that would show up to receive one. The general populace was being armed for occupation. Many of the older members of society had served with the military for a good portion of their lives, and they would train the younger generations in the use of military firearms and tactics. The general populace was being armed for the impending invasions.
OOC: Im willing to discuss a peace treaty...Of course this isn't a surrender so you will receive no concessions. Basically if your willing to trade my sovereignty and freedom for the lives of your soldiers then go ahead and invade, but i promise you this your men will die at the hands of mine, and then they will die at the hands of my general populace.

"Bogies 3 and 9 o clock level!!!"
The SU-37's turned into the incoming F-35's. The far more maneuverable SU's closed with the F-35's and fired off their close range Sidewinder Missiles. The F-22's began locking onto enemy targets with their AMRAAM's.
AS the enemy sidewinders were being fired, The F-35s fired their cannons and Sidewinder missiles, the dogfight began.
As the air battle was being fought above in the air, the Greal army continued to battle the Philippiniada army, and have lost another thousand men.

Shakal Iberian Battlegroup
Admiral Martini watched as the enmy on his radar dissappeared. It felt good. He ordered the fleet to continue in a north easterly direction, towards the bay of Biscay. Thanks to the peace agreement between the Shakal and Kalmurstan those troops would be moved to this front, along with the 5 carriers and there escorts. The fleet would join around 400km north west of La Coruna. The AAV now were cleared to begin landings, and thanks to the Shakal Luftwaffe softening the enemy resistance could be crushed.
Shakal North Iberian Army
The AAV began to prepare to launch there troops. The first wave consited of hundreds of thousands of men and material all ready to advance. The AAV CAS aircraft, both Harriers and A-10's took off anf were given orders to attack any enemy bunker or armor they respectivly encountered. The Shakal Marine Sturm Truppen would lead the attack. After several minutes of preperation the klaxons rang signalling the time for the assult to begin. The coast was lit up in the early morning light by the launch of 44 missles at any enemy positions that were discovered by the air forces on there attack that had been missed.
Shakal South Iberian Army
Just as the attack began in the north the forces in the south of the country began to ready for the landing, which was scheduled to take place some 10 minutes after the landings in the north. The troops sat ready in there ships all waiting to head towards the designated landing zone on the beaches west of Seville.

1st Shansekian Naval Battlegroup (Remnants)
"Well boys, isn't this fun?" shouted the NCO over the pouring rain and crashing waves.
"THIS IS FUN, SIR!" shouted the group of tired sailors as they watched their lifeboat's engine's sputter around.
"Then let's get a sea shanty started, shall we? Oh, who lives in a pineapple under the sea..."
Emergency Command Center, Pyrenees Mountains
The president stared though the snowy pass they were camping out in. Just a few kilometers north, the nation of Dynamic Revolution stood, fighting to defend itself against Greal. "Our new haven...or our deathbed." he muttered, turning around and walking back from the balcony into the hastily established base - it was still basically a cave.
"Bad news, sir." muttered the Admiral. "The First Naval Battlegroup was obliterated. The local waters are now heavily intoxicated with radioactive water and fuel rods from the sunken battleship reactors, and we have no idea of the current status of surviving sailors - if there are survivors."
"As expected..." murmured the president. "What's the chance of those survivors surviving?" asked the president, this time with a failing attempt to keep his voice loud and commanding.
"If they're alive, almost none. Massive storm surge near the wreck; anything within sixty-two kilometers will be hit with massive waves and thunderstorms."
"Damn, those survivors would have been good guerrillas...or could've helped out the refugees." The president took a glance at the massive line of buses parked in the pass and the tents being set up. "There are people freezing out there. Over a thousand dead kids as of now...Okay then, what's the current status of the situation?"
"May I?" requested the Chief Advisor. Having asked first, it was customary for him to just start without waiting for any kind of response. "The Shakal Fleet would most likely either head towards the Bay of Biscay or through the Strait of Gibraltar and approach the Mediterranean Coast. The Bay of Biscay would be faster, but they can obviously take their time..."
"Hmm...Bay of Biscay..." The president suddenly took out a book entitled "Geography of Shansekia for Retards" and took out a picture (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f9/Bay_of_Biscay_from_Terra_%282004-05-17%29.jpg) of the bay. "That it?" he asked, smiling. "See the plankton blooms?"
"Uhm...sure. Anyway, if they move into the Bay of Biscay, they would be a threat to DR, and our refugees. We should alert them soon. Meanwhile, Shakal ground forces are preparing to land. They've struck with about fourty missiles - Camp Lok was hit pretty hard, they thought the Shakalians were still stuck in a fight with the Navy - and they've landed in two or three areas. A landing west of Seville has been confirmed, near Huelva, and we believe they've landed within a few hundred kilometers of La Coruna, Galicia. They'll have fun with the empty streets and the rivers in the region, I'm sure."
"Evacuation is progressing smoothly, though the death rates are pretty painful to read. Good thing this is only Autumn. If this was Winter..." The Chief Advisor shook his head. "Good thing we had the Famine Emergency Food Storage. Anyway, we've evacuated all cities on the Bay of Biscay, - nice coincidence - León, Vigo, Salamanca, Shansek (OOC: Madrid)...basically every city and village above fourty degrees north latitude. Seville, Huevla, Gibraltar, and Málaga and neighboring villages were the only cities evacuated below that line. Other cities are either more inland or beyond the Strait of Gibraltar's SOSUS system."
"The First Shansekian Army has moved from Camp Lok to La Coruna, and the Second is spread out in a line from Madrid, Seville, and multiple other cities to Donostia-San Sebastián. The First is preparing for enemy landing and the second is helping the supply route to feed the refugees and usher more through the mountain." The Chief Advisor finished, and took a long gulp of water.
"...Wow." smirked the president, for the first time in days. Now I'm real informed! Well, I think I'll let the generals and admiral of the Second Battlegroup decide what to do tactically. They still have the same mission, after all...defend our evacuation, then defend DR. Okay then, cabinet dismissed." The president took a nice sip of green tea while waving away the cabinet.
As the cabinet members packed up their suitcases and prepared to leave for the living quaters (not much better than the civilians'), a messenger rushed in. "Sorry to interrupt..." he breathed out quickly, exhausted.
"Had a nice winter run?" chuckled the president. "It's fine, meetings over anyway. Go on."
"Well," he murmured, sitting on the floor and taking out a water bottle, "there's been a mini-revolt. Not the bad kind. Loads of men want to join the military. Right now."
"Well, if the women and children agree. If we survive the war and the men die, they'll be doing the manual labor." laughed the president. "How many?"
"About ten thousand."
"Holy..."

As the refugees flooded through the few destroyed roads into Dynamic Revolution they were met by Master Sergeants who would search each vehicle independently. They would hand out temporary citizenship cards. On this card was a phone number, the person was asked to call this number, explain any prior occupations, then they where assigned living quarters and a job.
Any male or female of age would be strongly advised to join the military. Once they did they were assigned to foreign legions consisting of their country men and women. These Units would be under the command of Shansekia commanders and would have autonomy with regards to the command chain.
Construction workers were assigned to the "Construction Corp" these men and women were sent to help fortify the country from the impending invasion.
Factory workers were assigned to the various weapons manufacturing plants. Which were being moved slowly underground.
Farmers would be assigned to the "Honeycomb Farms" as the underground farms were becoming known as.

The SU-37's in a deadly dance tried to get on the enemies six for a missile or gun kill. Sidewinders filled teh sky as the SU's engaged the F-35's. Some of teh Dynamic Revolutionary pilots were not quick enough and were hit by cannon fire, the pilots ejected as their ruined war birds crashed down in flames.
The CAS (Close Air Support) forces were shocked to see the Greal lines advancing. Half the force engaged the moving enemy lines wile the remaining forces continued to pound the SAM launchers.

The Greal force halted, and DMG Watchmen came up and began firing at the aircraft, it seemed like the whole Greal army was engaged at the enemy fighters. A Air fleet of 200 NC-22 Vipers flew in to combat the Su-37s, unlike Su-37s, GNC-22s had a few less weapons then the Su-37, but the GNC-22 had probably better maneuverability. Greal F-22s attacked the enemy F-22s, the only difference was that the Greal fighters had a Greal flag on them

"Well, evacuation has progressed smoothly. The only remaining civilians in Shansekia are in Shansek, Valladolid, and Salamanca." remarked the Chief Advisor, as he watched another bus get unloaded by DR Master Sergeants and inspected. Refugees from the bus huddled around a few oil drums with fires set in them as the president replied, "Yeah, kind of lenient. We're basically occupying their country and using their resources, and all they do is "advise" people to join the military and organize workers. I was hoping for something more melodramatic." The president randomly turned on the radio, and a large burst of static shocked the cabinet as it searched for radio waves. "LOL, FAIL, WHERE'S THE MUSIC?" shouted the president spontaneously.
"Sir...did you just say 'LOL'? Lame. With the hundreds of internet emotes to choose from, you choose that?" laughed the admiral, as he and other cabinet members picked themselves off the floor and got back on their seats. "You teach us every single emote and force us to practice chatting on IRC, and this is what you think of?"
"Eh, whatever. What I says goes. After all, you all awarded me emergency war powers." chuckled the president.

I don't know how long I've been on this freakin' lifeboat. All day, we either sing totally random sea shanties, intro songs to shows we've never heard of, and other crap. Once, we just strung words together - one being "Tekro mopoko fishdam fodder questfreekian wierd albastian turkey-monster. The recent storm has knocked out over a third of the life boats, and a full sixth has been lost from the main "fleet" of life boats. Food supplies are running low as we now eat dried mangoes that our lieutenant's mother packed for him. They actually taste pretty good.
The Shakal fleet has just been sighted to the fore and port. The lieutenant says we'll probably try and surrender to them. He says the original bridge crew is even now spamming radio channels in hopes of hitting the Shakalians' channel.

Admiral Slotholm, Commandant of the Marines, sat at the SitRep meeting. General Westinghouse sat at the head of the table, to his right was General Patoons, head of the army. To General Westinghouse's left was Fleet Admiral Niminz, the combined Fleet commander. Sitting next to Admiral Niminz was General Bradley, commander of the air force. All four men sat at a table underground. Dynamic Revolution had become a military police state, and as such they were running the country.
"So Gentlemen, how are we looking right now?" asked General Westinghouse
"Well sir we've locked up the Mountains tighter than a drum. Their are effectively two passes into the country, and as soon as we get reports that the last of the refugees are in we'll slam the gate shut. Currently we have the 2nd, 14th, 39th, and 43rd Mountaineer Divisions up there. They are practically the spawns of mountain glaciers so they are adept at fighting in those conditions. Thats roughly 8,000 men, plus, hopefully, we'll be adding some elements from the foreign legions, and 4 more divisions in about 2 days. That'll bring our men up to 20,000 highly entrenched defenders in the mountains, plus about 2,000 in reserve." Reported General Patoons
"Excellent." Said General Westinghouse "Do you feel we could add any air support to that list?"
"Ahhh, yes sir. With the recent manufacturing increase ill be able to put another 1500 aircraft on scene. That includes attack helicopters of course. Shakal would probably be able to top that, but I believe that our fine allies have taken great care in destroying anything useful before they came here. So food, water, airstrips, all should be out of action." pointed out General Bradly
"Very good" commented General Westinghouse
"Sir, I have to point out, that our northern and southern borders are very weak. Admiral Niminz has all his boats parked off shore, in the northern region but after that all we have is the gulls and skunks to crap and fart on 'em if they come that way. The southern region is only a little better off because its a little easier to defend. My men are barricading the north up as best as they can, but its not enough. I would like at least 4 Divisions of Engineers to help me fortify the beach heads in the north."
"Ok, advise the Foreign legions that we need them to move to protect the entire southern border with the sea. They should be able to hold it, and if not we'll send them a couple Brigades. I can definetly spare some combat engineers, I mean hell most of 'em are just putting farms underground, and the civys can take care of that. Ill send the 33rd, 76th and 29th Engineer corps to help with fortifying the sorthern beach heads. Also Slotholm the Marine Corp will be responsible for the Northern defense. Give 'em hell Devil Dog."
"Ooo rah, sir" responded Slotholm
"Ok, Gentlemen...Now to something a little more enjoyable...I got these awesome chocolates from Minister Hiroshi Yamauchi and I feel that I should share them with you." said General Westinghouse as he passed the chocolates around. "Oh and they want to meet to form tactical defense plans. So I sent them a response telling them to meet us in the middle of no where. However our men will bring them here."
Slotholm looked at the chocolates, and passed with out taking one. He wanted to be out in the field, with his men. The entire Corp was in the south of the country and he was here eating chocolates...the disgrace was almost too much to bear. Standing up, he left. His driver met him at the bunker complex entrance.
"Sir? The meeting is done already?"
"Just take me to my men. Call ahead, get me a rifle and some camo gear. Then I want a CP that I can easily respond to any situation from."
"Roger that, sir"
And with that the Marine Commandant when to prepare for the invasion.

OOC: The beaches near Seville have neither civilians nor defenders. It's open. The northern landing is weakly defended by mostly infantry and a few tanks and IFV's. There are guerrillas in every city, though numbers vary wildly (La Coruna, Donostia-San Sebastián, and Shansek have the most, at a few hundred). Every major road that is no longer needed has been blocked with mostly rubble and such or destroyed, so tanks and armoured vehicles may have some trouble getting through cities as their main avenues are blocked and the countryside gets muddy during winter. Hope saying it's nearly winter is okay with ya. :P

We have received your message and are willing to come to Toulouse to meet with you and your command staff. We will arrive as soon as we make sure every bus has made it through. Several million people still reside in central Shansekia, and the president wants to oversee their evacuation personally. He's just ordered evacuation of the few cities untouched by the current evacuation plan as well, so it's a logistical nightmare over here.
By the way, did you enjoy the chocolates?

"Too bad we can't ride a limo," laughed the president, as he prepared to inspect the bus that had been worn down from weeks of driving and would soon be his command staff's transport to Toulouse. "Sheesh, I thought these busses didn't have bathrooms on board!"
"Don't forget the babies," sighed the Chief Advisor, putting on a clothespin as he walked on board. "Anyway, just think of it as a road trip."

Shakal South Iberian Armee
The landing went very well. No resitance was met and the signal was immediatly given to begin the great unloading. Over a million men would land in Iberia and crush any defences constructed on the Pyreenes. The man in charge of the front was Feldmarschall von Rundstedt (http://www.tlysau.org.uk/storage/Components/41/4189_1.JPG). He knew the enemy had ben evacuating and using a scorched earth policy. It was a difficult thing to hide, moving millions of people. He ordered the Panscrier forces to move along the central axis of the country towards Barcelona. The 3 divisions and there respective assisting forces would dodge the former population centers and aim to ensure no enemy was present in the peninsula. The Shakal Urban Divisions would move into the cities, specially formed for the exact purpose of Urban combat as the name suggests. They were properly armed for the combat and could mop up the urban areas south of Madrid in just a few weeks. Rundstedt made sure to call in air support. Even though the enemy had destroyed the airfields after a few days most could be put back into use.
Shakal North Iberian Armee
The landing in the north went well. After a few hours of fighting the enemy had been dealt with. Now the force already began to march along the north coast towards Bordeaux. Even with all the major roads broken, everyone knows tanks and IFV and all terrain veichles, although making the ride bumpy the progress would be slowed only slightly. General Deveres was given word by Runstedt to make sure the airfields wer ein good shape for the expected support. He smiled when he heard what was coming. The entire strength of Luftflotte 2, Luftflotte 3, and Luftflotte 5. A total of some 3,000 aircraft. The campaign would be swift.

Screams ripped through the air as klaxons rang across the city. Public loudspeakers blared messages along the lines of "Stay Calm" and "More buses will come". And the buses would come, but they would take only children and women now. The men would have to stay and fight, with or without a firearm.
"DADDY, DADDY!!!" cried out a young girl, as a military sergeant was forced to pick her up and put her in the bus. "John, John..." sobbed the girl's mother, as she walked onto the bus in her daughter's wake, staggering with each step. Picking up the girl, she quickly grabbed a window and opened it. She tried to say goodbye, but ended up collapsing in her tears.
"Don't worry, honey," John shouted over the milling crowd, "I'll see you again! Someday..." Right as the bus's engines started to rumble, he threw a teddy bear into through the open window. "Always remember me!"
And the bus, along with hundreds of other buses, evacuated about 1 million people, driving along the muddy roads with their sobbing cargo. All that was left was the city, still eerily gleaming from the last rain, and the men left there, with only enough food for a few days left in the silos. And all they could do was bide their time, not knowing if they would die in their own homes or in a filthy POW cell.
1st Shansekian Naval Battlegroup (Remnants)
November 25th, 2008
We've just gotten word. The enemy, the Shakalians, had finally landed, their feet touching Shansekian land, now violated. Kind of explains why we lost sight of the Shakal Fleet. They wiped out all resistance in La Coruna - all 600 or so men. We don't believe we managed to do much damage. We now wander aimlessly towards the east, hoping we land on DR shores. The lifeboats' engines are out of fuel and now sit there, useless, like us.
Our leaders...they've abandoned us in this damned, accursed ocean, left us, left those men in Shansek, to die. I don't know what's worse, the mud in an infantryman's trench, or this stupid ocean.
I can't take this anymore. The frothy ocean waves, the salt encrusted in my skin. The damned ocean is right behind me. I, I just can't
"Hey, what the...OH GOD, WHERE'S ROBERT!?" shouted a neighboring sailor as he turned towards the sudden splash.
"He...he must've jumped," sighed the lieutenant. "Couldn't take it anymore...what's this?" Picking up the diary, he flipped through the pages. "I thought he was...was drawing..."

Shakal North Iberian Armee
The force continued to move at high speeds, road obstacles were simply pushed out of the way by the tanks with plows on the front of them. The sheer momentum of a 110 ton tank plowing into an object would easily remove an obstacle. 50,000 troops sped for Shansesk followed by what would be another 500,000. Another 80,000 troops were moving towards Bilboa and hoping to break the enemy defences before they wer efully prepared. Any villaiges were destroyed, the civilians in them were either sent to the POW camp being located 45km north of Huevla (Sp) or killed. The forward elements of the divisions had reached a point 40km past La Coruna in the north and 78km past in the south. The city itself was set for utter destruction and going to be sunk into the ocean by a large series of mines that would split the city allowing the water to engulf it.
Shakal South Iberian Armee
Rundstedt set up his HQ in the Huelva POW camp commonly referred to as the 'Hoffnungszerkleinerungsmaschine' or 'Hope Crusher' in engish. The Generalfeldmarschall knew that the most difficult part of the campaign would be breaking the defence set up by Dynamic Revolution along the Pyreen mountains in the north. But that was two weeks off, right now his objective was the total encirclement of Shansek and all its inhabitants. These people would resist, but they would be turned to dust beneath the Shakal boots.

Shakal Luftflotte 3
The one thousand aircraft flew forward in formation above the mid-atlantic. There destination was the enemy city of Shansek, home to 2.5 million people and capital of there enemy. There goal was to bomb it into oblizion, the preferred method was to level the city to make room for new Shakal settlements. The entire Shansekian population was to be liquidated to allow room for the farmers and other Shakal citizens that needed room from there crowded homes in the Shakal Isles.

OOC: You'd have to clean the metal debris out of the ground and stuff, and flatten the craters. How tiring! Too bad it's too late to say I sprayed chemicals...I forgot to RP. <_< Oh BTW DR, I'll assume you already have at least some defenses on the Pyrenees.
IC:
Pyrenees Mountains
Across the mountains, SAM's taken apart and put on buses with evacuees were being reassembled on top of mountains, in passes on ledges, and on whatever strategic position they could get hold of. Army commanders began to query locals, hoping to figure out good areas in each pass to camp out the men. Over 400,000 more troops had just been recruited, and they needed to be trained and ready to go. The only real problem was arming them all, but the generals had been assured the president would take care of it.
Meanwhile, with the evacuation having fully evacuated all but Shansek, a few cities around it, and cities in the southeast, the Pyrenees Mountains were shut down. All inbound traffic was either evacuees, who were allowed through, or military personnel, including the Second Army, which was retreating from Donostia-San Sebastián. It was well known that there were portions stuck in the circling Shakal South Iberian Armee, but that just meant the city had more resistance; nothing could be done to save them.
President's Bus
"One of beer on the wall, one bottle of beer..." muttered the cabinet as they bumped along the road.
"TAKE ONE DOWN, PASS IT AROUND, ZERO BOTTLES OF BEER ON THE WALL!" screamed the president, laughing as the passengers jumped back in shock. "C'mon people, sing! ZERO BOTTLES OF BEER ON THE WALL, ZERO BOTTLES OF BEEEEERR!"
"Go to the store, buy one more, one bottle of beer on the wall..." muttered the tired entourage. The Admiral flipped open a choose-your-own-adventure book, the general studied a map of DR, and everyone else did...well, their thing. All while the president kept singing for no reason.

"Generalfeldmarschall, our troops have reached the coast. The south of the country has been cut off." Rundstedt's Chief Of Staff, Staff General Krebs, said to him pleased. "However, I also have bad news. Intelligence reports that the enemy lines along the Pyreenes have been reinforced by several hundred thousand men. We wont be ble to break through without heavy casualties."
"Worse yet is that our Panscrier forces will be useless in that terrain." Rundstedt replied. "We will have to use more naval landings. Where would you suggest Krebs?"
"Well, with the troops en route it would be wiser to land on three sides of Dynamic Revolution. That way they will be crushed swiftly." Krebs explained using the computer generated flat map that formed the table to illustrate his point.
"I agree. According to our intel the combined forces of the enemy are only around 300,000 real troops and a huge portion of conscripts, perhaps around half a million." Krebs answered. "We could have one and a half million men in this theater in just two weeks. We could also have another three Luftflotte come to support us. These aircraft would make it possible to totally destroy the enemy at locations away from the Pyreenes, if we leave the huge force there intact they wont be able to send forces to the other locations leaving them mostly defenceless."
IC:
The Shakal Mot. Inf forces began to secure the lands in the south. All resistance was crushed and ANY Shansekian citizens located were sent to the POW camp. The north was proving even more difficult, the terrain was not a great deterrance, but the guerrila forces were slowling the nfantry as they secured the lands the Panscrier formations passed through. Still, casualaties were minimal.

U175 was the latest u212 to be pumped out by Dynamic Revolution factories, and was on it's final test, Long Haul Ocean trials.

"Allright call electrical, tell them I want a full diagnostic, and I want it done yest..."
"SIR! Fire in engine room 1!!!"
"Shit! Ok people you know the drill! Helm take us to the surface!"
By the time the sub reached the surface the fire had been all but extinguished, Engine number 1 was going to have to be replaced due to the fire damage. However before they headed back to port one of the watchmen spotted something in the distance.
"Uhhhh, crew chief I've spotted something....I think its a life raft sir."
"Any movement?"
"I can't tell sir it's to far out..."
"Allright, helm! We've got a raft bearing 258*, bring us within boarding distance."
"Aye aye sir" came the reply

Taking off from Kileen AFB DR
0100 hours:
The flight of 10 B-2's and 30 B-1's taxied down the run way. The plan was to dispense mines across wide areas of Shansekian territory. This mission was going to be called operation Area Denial and would continue until it was deemed unsafe to fly the missions. They would be dropping tens of thousands of mines, mainly of two different variants the small, non-lethal PFM-1 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PFM-1) type mine. And the larger anti-armor mine the M93 HORNET (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M93_HORNET_mine) system. The Hornets would be dropped in such a way that hundreds of the smaller PFM-1's would protect them from defusing. The HORNET system can engage moving targets more than 100 meters away.
The B-1's would fly low and the B-2's would fly higher, but relying on their stealth capabilities more. Both flights would be escorted by F-22's. They would "dust" areas close to major road systems and any area that would allow the easy passage of tanks and equipment.
The planes took off and headed toward their destination, they would arrive in three hours.
_______________________________________________________________
5 Large Black SUV's (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvYV5QZtevk) pulled into the towns multi-level parking garage. They waited for the Shansekian President's bus to arrive. From here they would take him to the command bunker deep in the heart of DR.

The Air Battle over Phil was becoming intense. With the recent addition of the enemies reinforcements the the fight had gotten more intense. A full 10 SU-37's had been shot down and 5 F-22's. If Phil did not lend some assistance soon the battle would be lost. However the pilots fought on, skillfully using their crafts as if they were extensions of themselves. Most of the rookies were out of the fight now, all that remained were the battle tested and bloodied Veterans. The attack aircraft continued to make bomb runs on Greal tanks, infantry, and SAM's.

OOC: Shakal, I'd let your guys reach the eastern coast only if you let us speed up too! :D And DR, yeah, I'm sending men there too. Just reinforcing Pyrenees a bit first. By the way, I now have about 2 million men, but they're all conscripts, so they suck and most have only pistols - some are stuck with javelins. Not the missile javelin, the old-day javelin. BTW, who's east of you again, DR? Greal?
Pyrenees Mountains
250,000 men, approximately an eighth of the of the Foreign Legions, were now entrenched in the Pyrenees, alongside SAM, missile, and mortar positions, high on the mountains. They were positioned around strategic chokepoints - the only mountain passes large enough for mobilized forces to get through. There, the dug mines and deep anti-tank trenches, installed Dragon's Teeth, and roped barbed wire across the ground. Most of the men were either in the trenches or in caves up above with the snipers. Mortars were placed on ledges, mostly near the caves, and SAMs were on ledges as well and also on the ground in pits. A mere 500 of these men were veterans - the government of Shansekia had never seriously recruited. Because of this, every day, training was held and entire regiments practiced on bullseye targets tacked onto trees
Southern Coast of France
Approximately 1.5 million men lined the southern coast line of DR, starting where the Pyrenees Mountains' line ended, near Perpignan, and ending at the Lympia Port in Nice. There, they spread out in a massive line, digging trenches in natural chokepoints, or just digging if there wasn't any. Mortars were lined on top of cliffs and in trench pits, cliffs preferred. While there were few SAM installations available, it was assumed DR would provide air support if needed. Setting up similar defenses to the ones in the Pyrenees, they had trouble sticking Dragon's Teeth into the sand, but it was done. Training was done similarly to the training done in the Pyrenees.
Western Coast of France, Bay of Biscay
Around 500,000 men were stretched across the beach, with minor SAM installations and few mortars. It was hoped that this wouldn't be the planned landing site of any Shakal invasion, at least during the winter, when weather in the Bay of Biscay was the worst. Even now, the storm that had swept over the radioactive wrecks of the 1st Naval Battlegroup (which had probably spread radioactive water and killed quite a bit of sea life) was now approaching the Bay. Training was more emphasized here, as only the volatile weather protected them - unlike the cold storms of the Pyrenees and the 1 million men lined across Southern France.
1st Shansekian Naval Battlegroup (Remnants)
"Hey, what the...Vice Admiral, I think that's a submarine surfacing there!" shouted a sailor, waving his binoculars.
"Gimme that!" shouted the Vice Admiral (technically an admiral now), grabbing the binoculars and peering through the lens. "By god, it's from Dynamic Revolution!"
For the last 15 days, the remaining 216 lifeboats (and decreasing) had been braving wild seas as they entered the Bay of Biscay, there last hope of pickup. For there lay the last ships of Shansekia, the 2nd Naval Battlegroup. Home sweet battleship.
"Hot-diggity-dang!" shouted another sailor, "We're saved!" the sailor, happening to be the radio operator, immediately broadcasted a message to the remaining lifeboats, simply saying "If you would look to your right, you will see a large, shiny, metal object, believed to be DR." in a humorous tone.
"Don't forget to broadcast to the sub too," laughed the Vice Admiral at the jubilant radar operator. "A simple 'SOS 1SNB*' should be fine."
"Holy shit, we're leaving this damned sea-what the?" the sailor turned around to see one of his comrades cough violently.
"It's the flu." sighed the Vice Admiral. "The dose of radiation we got may have been only around 150 REM for most people, but that's enough to cause fatigue, weaken our immune systems, vomiting...and a 10% fatality rate after 30 days - I think it's been 22." The Vice Admiral gestured at a spot on the lifeboat where a few days before a fellow sailor had died from radiation poisoning. "Not to mention that our life jackets and clothes are soaked in radioactive water...Oh yeah, mention that to the DR sub so they know to take precautions, like giving us fresh clothes!"
President's Bus
"Here we go," spoke the president over the bus's PA, like a tour guide. "Toulon, an actual city! Civilization!" Driving through the city, it arrived at the appointed parking garage. "Five black SUVs...this must be it." noted the general.
"Then driver, let's go in!" shouted the president. With a resounding sigh and shake of the head, the driver hit the gas and drove towards the SUVs, stopping mere inches away from them.

The advance had been ordered to slow outside Bliboa. The Panscrier forces would not be much use in the mountain terrain now in front of them. Instead the mountain divisions would move up and use there special training and equipment to aid the normal motorized infantry in cracking the enemy line. What the force lacke din positional advantage it more than made up for with air superiority. A total of 5,000 Shakal aircraft would be deployed to Spain.
Shakal South Iberian Armee
Rundstedt was studying the situation. Recent intelligence reports showed that the border between Iberia and Gual was clogged with half a million troops at least. The south of France was also heavily fortified. The only area of the enemy open was the Bay Of Biscay, but enemy subs could be to deadly in the shallow water since the Shakal capital ships could not safly sail in to the shallows without risk of grounding. Rundstedt sighed. The battle for Iberia may be over, but Dynamic Revolution was about to begin. The Kriegsmarine would be forced to sail north to Normandy and launch an invasion there. The Vetrans from the Kalmurtsan campaign and the Panscrier forces in Iberia were to be used for this venture.

The SS members watched as the Presidential "bus" arrived at the rally point. They were all highly trained members of the FROG special forces team and watched with battle hardened intensity. As the bus approached it was told to stop. The members were told to exit the bus, and leave all their baggage behind. After they exited the vehicle they were hooded, and taken down into the basement. The cars drove into the basement as well, shortly after recieving the baggage, after it had been screened for bombs. The SUV's left the building, heading towards neer by Mclennan AFB. As they left 2 Mi-24s and 2 V-22's took off and headed toward the parking garage. These aircraft would transport the President and his staff to "The Den". This highly secretive military C&C bunker was hidden deep in the earth. Its very existance was classifyd.
