OCC: All are free to join.
"Mr. President."
"Yes"
Sir. We have reports of the plague throughout the country."
"When did these reports arrive?"
"All of them arrived within the last 20 minutes. According to the reports, cases began coming in about 3 hours and have been increasing gretly in number."
"Call the cabinet and get them all here now!"
34 Min. later:
"Was this an attack or is it naturally occuring?"
"We do not know sir but I would preusme that it is a bio attack by one of our many neighbors."
"What makes you think that?"
"The timing sir."
"What do you suggest?"
"We use our nuclear arsenal on our neighbors."
"We cannot do that. We cannot go off half cocked. I say we should wait and see if anyone comes forward to claim the attack on their own. This is probably a random outbreak!" shouted the Minister of Health.
"I agree." the President answered. "We shall quarentine our nation and wait to find out who did this if it was an attack. Put all intelligence assets to work on this and put the military at DEFCON 3. Begin a massive treatment program as well."
The aid ran in
"Mr. President. The hospitals are out of room and the people are about to riot at Capitol City Hospital."
"Deploy the crisis reaction team. Order them to prevent all riots, using all means necassary."
"Do you mean fire on our own civilians?"
"Indeed I do"...

Thanks for telling me. Now if anything happens I know it was you. And by the way my men are now hunting for your teams and if you take any action with those teams that I don't approve of, we will go medieval on you and launch diseased corpses into your nation.

Somewhere in a unaffected region of Bedouin Raiders
A man walks into a first aid center in B.R,that handing out masks in a effort to control the spread of the rapidly spreading plague. He is unnoticed by the busy staff and wonder civilians. So they don't notice him placing a small cigar size box in a flower pot. The man then quickly leaves before he is noticed. As he walks out the door. A ordorless gas spreads throughout the room. Soon most if not all the people in the center,will start delevloping fevers and headaches.
Within 72 hours,they should end up in bed,throwing up and having trouble breathing. In a week,they should be dead.
The man pulls out a cell phone and sents a message overseas" It is done." Then he cuts the connection and walks away.
This will be repeated all throughout B.R. With any luck the nation shall be cripple and the infiels will died.
OOC: Ok, a ultra-extremist group knowed as the Bloody Roses,will have started this plague to as they think,to cripple the infiels of B.R. Unknowed to them,their a must larger player invole. If Muffleberry agreees. I spread the attack to his nation. The only problem is, the virus will mutal and spread very rapidly. And will not respond to the antidole the terriosts have. The blessed chris can start a terror attack in B.R. That kills a Bloody Rose member and such tip off you. That a terriost group atatcked you with biogiocal weapons.

A UAV was over Bedouin Raiders. It was relaying information to a Spy Sub, which in turn relayed information to the laptop computer of Julius Capulet, a Templarian Splinter Agent. TSA's received the highest level of subterfuge training, and were notoriously difficult to root out and kill. However, if he didn't act soon this damn plague would do it for them.
Putting on a small mask, covering all of his face and only having two hard plastic goggles, he tucked a Desert Eagle into his jeans and left the small room.

"Sir the Plague spreads even faster now."
"It must be an attack then. No plague spreads this fast." said the minister of defense.
"I am afraid I must now agree. The tests we have run on the plague show that it is infact genetically inhanced." replyed the minister of health.
"We have found out who launched the attack. It was a terrorist group named Bloddy Rose."
"Very well. I know what we shall do then," announced the President. "Prepare the airborn commando forces. We will find everyone fo their camps and hit them all with night time helicopter raids."
"Yes Sir" replied General Zhukov.
B.R. Intell H.Q.:
"Sir we ahve the UAV feed. We found a Bloody Rose Camp here."
"Very good"
"Call the minister of Defense"
"Yes Sir."
"Yes?"
"We have a camp sir."
"Excellent. Send your info to SOCOM"
10 Min. Later at SOCOM:
"That is the info we ahve gentlemen. What is the plan.'
"We are going to hit them everyewhere. Land a platoon and each corner and one in the middle. Full company of our commandos will take care of them all. Kill everyoen blow the place and fly back home in time for breakfast."
"Alright men. You ahve a go." ...

All ten CH-53's land at a camp inside of Fighter4u's nation. There is an extremely loud, violent, and short firefight between the commandos and the inhabitants. In a few minutes local farmers who heard the rackets hear helicopters fly over their heads and then there is one massive explosion in the distance followed by a many smaller ones.
To:President of Fighter4u
I have been informed that the plague that is sweeping through my nation was infact from a terrorist group based in your nation. I have therefor authorized attacks on these camps. We are destroying everything in their camps, especially the labs. All of my men entered in HazMat suits and destroyed every vile they found before they destroyed the compound. Please understand we have no ill will towards you, just towards these cowards.

"Commader",yelled the base new communation officer."Multiple helicopters spotted on radar. They must haved tracked the cellphone called!"
"Shit!"Reply Basant Dung,base commander and ranking leader of the BRs operations. "Sound the alarms! Were not going down without a fight! Order qwerty to active phrase 3!"
"Aye sir!" Moments later a encoded message was bounced off several satallies before being routed through several major international citys before the message spilt off into asia and the south pacific and then to a clean(OOC:Never used before) cellphone. Such,becoming untraceable.
Now,gunfire could be heared through the camps,as the B.R defenders return the commandos fire with heavy machine gun fire from bunkers located on a checker pattern through the base,trenches with soldiers armed with rocket lanchers (RPGs)and small arms(AK-74s,MP5s,M32s, and hand grenades)also their are mupitle Light and medium mortars in the trenches. Their also anti-perrsonel mines

"This is Captain Thomas. I am in need of air support. This raid is not going as well as the first. Over."
"Roger that Cap'n. Strike 2-6 is inbound. Over."
4 Apache Helicopters that were held in reserve come swooping in on the camp using 75 mm rockets and the 20 mm nose gun. The destruction is instantaneous. The terrorists are almost defeated with 1 Apache downed and 1 returning to base wounded.
"Thanks Major. Much appreciated. Over"
"Roger no problem Cap'n. 2-6 is RTB. Over."
"Mr. President, we met more resistance in the second raid however we still defeated them with a little air support."
"We have yet to recieve a reply giving us permission so we shall continue raids until they tell us not to."

"CODE RED! CODE RED!" Said a mechanical voice over a PA system followed by a screeching alarm! Everyone in that government building knew that a code red meant only one thing: The Dictator been hurt! As medical staff rushed into his office they found him lying on his office floor coughing up blood!
"SHIT! It's that plague! GET BACK!" Yelled the first person too enter his office!
News Flash: Dictator has plague!
Yes it's true. Our beloved Lord Ragan II is in critical condition tonight because of the plague! HazMat tested the inside of an envolope they found in the trash in his office which tested positive for the plague! General Gandly (Secound in command of all military forces) will stand in his place until he is well enough to return to office!

we have recived intelligence that the terroists releasing the GM plague virus, that has now spread to our nation, are located in you country. also our scientists have detected high levels of the plague virus around the areas of terrorist action in your country!!
The hospital ship FRS Angel was in Bedouin Raiders refueling when the crew learned of the plague. They were supposed to return to Rastier after helping out in another nation. The captain, Gavin Gowsky, sent a message to the President of Rastier, who in turn sent a message to the President of Bedouin Raiders.
To: The President of Bedouin Raiders.
From: The President of Rastier
Dear Sir,
The Federation of Rastier has had many incidents like yours happening. Thus, we understand your plight and would be willing to help out. Our hospital ship FRS Angel is in Bedouin Raiders stopping over. We pledge the help of the ship and medical teams onboard. Defence forces will also be at your assistance. Please inform us on what else you may need, and we will try our best to provide it.

The MacCountry hazmat team touched down about 300 miles from the capital of Bedouin Raiders, with the stench of death clinging in the air.
"Wait here", the leader of the group of eight said. "I'm going to collect from samples."
----------------------
It had been four hours. It was now dark, and the group's concern grew.
"Where did Commander Links go? Do you think-?"
"Wait! There he is - over the horizon!"
It soon became clear that there was something seriously wrong. Commander Links' silhouette thrashed and stumbled, and collapsed, a bloodcurdling death rattle emerging from his lips. He clutched something in his hands. The group slowly approached, and sighed.
"My God", one member said. "The plague-It even got the ducks. The DUCKS, godammit! Why the ducks?? Why - (sob) - Why the ducks?"

Subject: The Plague
This is terribly sad news. Many will die from this, and the fate of nations may be decided. For our own security, travel between the Holy Marsh and all nations that have been hit with the plague will cease. Ships and planes heading towards the nation will be destroyed if they do not turn back. That having been said, the Holy Marsh is willing to work with the international community to halt this disaster, and will pledge m10 Billion Marshes(NS $6.9 Billion) as well as the finest genetic reserach facility we have to offer.

It was dark, very dark. The only light was far below them, the orange glow of street lamps, like thin threads of cotton across the country side. The 2000 heavly equiped infantry were parachuting into Fighter4u, they were compleatly covered by plastic suits to protect them from viruses.
Fighter4u time: 00:05
6 ships plus 3 battle ships came into the harbour on the Fighter4u coast. it was deserted, as the harbour was miles away from any residential zones. 3000 heavly equiped infantry (again wearing suits to protect them from viruses) along with 300 vehicles and 30 tanks.

we have been forced to enter your nation after deaths are increasing and the plague is speading in our country, Bedouin Raiders and possibly other countrys.

______________________________________________________________
Somewhere in base A70,sector 346-81. A controller radar flashed as it detected hostile aircraft,inbound to fighter4u space. 6 ADFX-01 fighter aircraft,4 YR-302 Fregata and 2 XR-45 Cariburn were quickly dispatched with the intent to shoot the down planes if they did not turn back quickly.
OOC:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fictional_aircraft_in_Ace_Combat
OOC:So what planes are they MB and what ecorts do they have? What their numbers?
Mainwhile in the storm tossed eastern coast of fighter4u, a carrier group was on high alert,but did not know why. what a radar operator detected hostiles blimps on his radar screen,he quickly told naval high command. Who order him to interpect the ships and if warn them to leave fighter4u terrioty now. If not,they be destroyed. So the carrier lanched recon planes,while a message was sent to the Muffleberry ships. Ordering them to turn back or be destroy.
Fleet:
1 carrier with 3 squadrons of F/A-18V Hornet ADVs and 5 squadrons of Y-25C JSFs
6 destorys
2 Aegis class ships
A frigate
2 nulear submaires
1 desial submaire
_____________________________________________________________
In the terriost camp, 2 bunkers and a AA guns were destroy,as 12 terrriost die and a dozen more were wounded. AA guns fire on the helicopters who were easy prey as they dropped off their soldiers. Men in the trenches soon found the commandoes and pinpointed their fire on them.

This time he passes the information that he done to a runner. A hour later. Police stations,hosptials,health centers, stores,goverment offices and main roadway bridges blew up. Causing unheard of damage and crippling B.R respond to the plaudge now.

In fighter4u
The antidole we have isn't working,reported a aid to the fighter4u republic. The plan is failing! 30% of the popuation is at risk. We must shut down the country! Order the gaurds up! Were under attack and only able to develop 21 % of our armed forces! Were scerwed!
"No,were not"reply a top miltary brass. Remember Muffleberry and B.R are also affected by this pluagde. Worst then us,may I add.
We have two carrier groups unaffected,tell them to start biogloical defense standards. We msut deal with the threat to our national defense and then somehow strike back!

OCC: Sounds fair. I am just using the Apache as it is the most dominant close airsupport vehicle in history. And Pointing out that stealh vehicles not being picked up on radar is not godmoding as it is entirely acurate. Results may not be great but steatlh vehciles aren't detected on radar no matter who is using them. Unless they are F-22's then your radar poerater will see a bird so you are still safe.
To: All nations harboring terrorists
Bedouin Raiders will no longer sit idoly by while terrorist wreak havoc throughout the region. Please do not consider it an act of war agianst your country when you learn of my troops landing in your countries. They will withdraw as soon as the raids they are on are over.

"Targert is locked....In 5,4,3,2,1,....Bombs are away repeat bombs are away....Delta 5-4 is RTB.
The stealth bomber turned toward Bedouin Raiders as bombs went off in a terrorist camp in Fighter4u's nation. Back at Intell HQ spooks were intentally awaiting reports of damage.
As promised, the President of Rastier sent off 5 C-130s, full of medical equipment, supplies and medical staff. 5 C-5s were also sent, with troops on board with hazmat gear. 10 F-22 Raptors escorted the C-130s, while 10 F-35s were escorting the C-5s. 2 submarines, a carrier and a destroyer were sent to defend the hospital ship, as it had limited defences.

The man moved silently, unnoticed. Maybe because of his pitch black outfit in the night's darkness, maybe because he was carrying an uzi which showed out of the top of his jeans. He reached his target, a medical research center. There were two guards there, watching TV. Lazy bastards. The man took out a pair of wire cutters and cut a small hole in the fence. He slipped through, moving to the side of the building.
3 more Sixth House members were doing this in different areas. Some hospitals where patients of the plague were being treated, some just government buildings.
Two workers there lay dead and the man was kneeling, attaching a bomb to the wall. This bomb was unusual. A small C4 charge, two bags containing a potent napalm/nitrogylcerine mixture and then a large container. This container was the piece de resistence. When the bomb detonated, it would ignite the mixture, which in turn would burn through the container's outer shell. Inside that container was a potent bioweapon, modified anthrax. It would infect the escaping personnel of the center, spreading a new plague.
The heathens deserve it.
At 3 AM, local time, all four bombs detonated.
OOC: I just stumbled on this and it looked pretty good. Hope you don't mind me putting in a post.
IC:
Stevid International Airport, Stevid Capita- 8:30 am
It was still dark outside but a light haze was just visible to the east as morning drew ever nearer on the Stevidian mainland, night was a time of rest for humanity but not at this airport and nor this city. Neither ever shut down, the city was nothing more than a beating heart, the heart of the Holy Empire and the airport was the commercial hub of travel to a from the Empire’s founding state. Stevid International airport was huge with over six gargantuan runways and a further five smaller ones and each was constantly busy with aircraft taking off and landing on each one every eight minutes like clock work. Delays were usually temporary but if something serious happened that compromised the security of the airport then all the schedules would be thrown into utter chaos.
Stevidian Airways Flight 717 inbound from Bedouin Raiders had been on a two day journey from the country which was now beginning to experience problems with some sort of plague but news of this trouble was barely noticed in Stevid. Bedouin Raiders was relatively new on the political radar of the Holy Empire and the Empire itself cared very little for Bedouin Raiders and thus had shown little interest in the country or its problems. The news of a plague had only reached the ears of their own government not too long ago and so no one expected this particular flight to be carrying infected passengers. SA Flight 717 landed on time with no mishaps but the Captain had reported that a few of the passengers would need medical attention once they got off the plane. Four passengers, unrelated and had no connection with one another had been coughing somewhat violently during the latter half of the trip making the other passengers feel uncomfortable but sympathetic, several other passengers had come into contact with the four that were ill giving them support with the flight attendants. The similarities in symptoms were striking and maybe they all just had bad chesty coughs but it was thought safer that paramedics be called to the airport terminal of SA Flight 717 to care for the sick passengers.
Paramedic John Ames and his colleague Dorothy Plains were on call that night and waited for the four ill passengers to be supported off the plain and into the waiting lounge while the other passengers began the slow process of checking themselves in to Stevid at passport control.
“Wow that is some violent coughing, something’s not right here at all.” Ames said solemnly as both he and Plains saw the four ill passengers.
“Agreed. This is no chesty cough, look how pale that one looks. She looks utterly terrible, white as a sheet.” Plains replied as they approached closer.
Ames took off his medic back pack and knelt down in front one of the sick passengers, a female and pale as one could imagine. She was shaking, her teeth chattering and she was mumbling something that Ames couldn’t quite make out. He wrapped a blanket round her, checked the pulse and began trying to communicate with her while Plains talked to one of the flight assistants.
“Has she been like this the whole trip?” She asked.
“No,” Relied the flight attendant. “In fact she is the only one to be that pale and with good reason too. You should see the mess back on the plane, blood everywhere. God it was horrific, I was in tears and so was she. Damn, she made it so violent as well, coughing and vomiting blood at the same time, it sounded awful. My guess is she ate something truly terrible back in Bedouin Raiders because none of the other passengers have shown that sort of behaviour.”
Plains’ eyes went wide with panic suddenly.
“Vomiting blood? Are you serious? It sound like any allergic reaction to anything I’ve ever heard of. Was she coughing as bad as these three are now when she boarded the flight?”
“Kind of, not so violent as these three men are now but she was coughing really…”
A noise came from one of the coughing men that sounded like a cross between a belch and a sickening vomit sound cutting off the flight attendant in mid speech. As Plains turned round she saw Ames staggering backwards in horror as one of the men sitting next to the pale woman exploded in to fits of vomiting, blood poured everywhere as the man twitched several times and collapsed on the floor with blood still pouring from his mouth. To the amazement and horror of the paramedics the man was still alive after the vomiting, minutes later another man coughed loudly and unnaturally and duly followed suit of the other man and vomited pint after pint of blood. It was a horrific sight as the velvet blue carpet was stained blood red. Both the flight attendants and the paramedics backed away from the ill passengers and it quickly dawned on Ames just what might have happened. He had heard rumours of some sort of biological attack involving a genetically modified plague virus being unleashed in Bedouin Raiders but he was sure the flight had left hours before word had gotten out. But perhaps that was it, the Bedouin Raiders government only found out about their nationwide pandemic not too long ago and for any virus to reach such lethal proportions throughout the country takes weeks. It didn’t matter how long ago the world had found out about this virus, the fact remained that the virus could have been killing people days or even weeks ago before the symptoms showed themselves and killed people. It could be possible that this highly contagious virus had reach Stevid and from there the Holy Empire could become infected. The ill passengers had been in contacted with all the flight attendants and several passengers and of course himself and Dorothy which meant they all definitely infected, the coughing might spread the virus but he wasn’t sure and neither was he going to take the risk- he had to declare and emergency and quarantine the entire airport.
“This is Dr. John Ames to control. Come in over.”
“Control here, go ahead John- what’s the status on those patients at Terminal twenty?”
“They are infected with something, I’m not sure what but it is nasty. Violent coughing, vomiting swimming pools of blood and they stand little chance of surviving. SA Flight 717 came in from Bedouin Raiders which has had the recent problem of a GM plague virus killing off thousands of their population and it’s a safe bet that the virus has reached Stevid… the capital no less.”
“Shit. How many passengers are infected? And please include flight crew.”
“Twelve confirmed, I’m including Dorothy and myself in that number, and eight more suspected. The whole plane could be infected because the coughing might spread the virus, I know the blood and physical contact almost certainly will. So in total I’m guessing around one hundred and eighty people.”
“Good God. I assume the passengers not showing symptoms have proceeded through passport control?”
“A few will be through already. If that’s the case then who knows who’s infected now.”
“Don’t worry too much John. It is a disaster but a GM virus will have an incubation period. All the passengers are likely to have it but anyone they come into contact with won’t have a successfully incubated virus for at least 24 to 48 hours. I’ll close the airport and authorise quarantine on the entire facility. I’ll order the tower to divert all flights, postpone take offs and I will of course be notifying the emergency services and the government.”
“Thank you control, John out. Okay… how are things Dorothy?”
“All four of them are dead John… this bastard is quick to kill.”
It wasn’t long before a man spoke over a tannoy system to tell the public that the airport was closed because of a possible lethal virus. Minutes later the fire brigade arrived and several police units cordoned off all entrances to airport. Minutes afterward the government officials arrived with further members of the fire brigade with specialist biohazard gear. The men in white overalls quickly put up the decontamination tents and began work on testing all eight thousand civilians and working personnel in the airport for infection.
The Stevidian government opened an immediate dialogue with Bedouin Raiders informing them that the virus had accidentally reached the Holy Empire but had been successfully contained. The government politely demanded all data relating to virus, possible cures and effective medical methods of treating the virus. Fatality and survival statistics were also requested from Bedouin Raiders to see just how likely it was for the thousands and thousands of people in the airport to survive this infection without treatment or a cure. Of course the media was informed but not given the whole story, enough information was provide so as to avoid widespread public panic but it was seen as the right thing to do. The press would find out one way or another of the happenings at the airport, you don’t just close an airport and give no reason. The news was bound to leak so the press were given the story as quickly as possible.
It was to be a long few months but the fact that the capital city’s airport was under quarantine meant sheer chaos for all air traffic in Stevidian airspace, but now that was the least of the country’s problems.

OCC: No problem. As stated before, all are welcomed. Nice post by the way. Very intereseting. JSOW's are the US Air Force's newest cluster bombs. They are wicked if you aren't underground.
"They want all of the medical info we have on the plague."
"Send it to them. They have been around much longer. They probably have better health organizations and labs."
"Yes sir."
"All right boys. Here is the deal. We have been given a special mission because we are at the only Air Force base here in Bedouin Raiders to not have been affected by the plague and we are the only F-22 squadron here. This is the plan. We have indentified the terrorist camps here and here. We are going to go in with JSOW's. Once they have all been delivered you are to go on straffing runs agianst the camp until we pick up fighters or you run out of ammo. Which ever happens first, as soon as we tell you get your butt back here in one piece ASAP. Get across the border and our Patriot batteries will cover you."
"Sir what if they have stealth fighters? And why would we ahve to worry about fighters anyway? After all they are terrorists."
"We belive the government is supporting them."
"Oh great. Why don't we have half of our squadron carrying air-to-air weapons to protect us? Just incase they have fighters."
"Because we will pick them up on radar long before they can attack you."
"What if they have F-22's too?"
"Alright. First group will have air-to-air."
"Mr. President!"
"Yeah"
"Terrorist blew up some buildings around the city."
"Oh crap. Get HazMat teams down to the sights and have them test for chem or bio weapons."
"But sir there are fires burning. We must put them out first."
"In due time. We must find out if there were chem or bio attacks here."
"Yes sir."
"And have Intell see if this was the same group that started the plague."

Understood but the infection is contained, that we can assure you of at the moment. All other flights from the Bedouin Raiders have either been sent back or kept in quarantine and away from the public. The Empire is safe for the time being as is your country. We will lift the quarantine on the airport once a cure for the condition is found or untill everyone in the airport can be safely evacuated to a propper containment base.
How long this will take, we're not sure, but the capital and the country is safe.
EDIT:
OOC: F-22s suck, one stray bullet or a bird strike renders its stealth a abilty void- it'll be lit up like a christmas tree and it isn't cheapt the repair either since the whole thing is nearly one sheet of metal. A-10s rule or F-18s, Eurofighter ground attack varients (Like Tranche 3) or Tornadoes will get the job done.

5 men clambered through the burnt out building. It overlooked the Capitol building, and the army was too bus securing the ground from the rebels to notice them. Two men set up a sniper rifle, a Barrett .50 cal, while the other 3 lugged RPG's up with them. There would be blood shed today.
The rebels marched up the street towards the Capitol, chanting and firing roudns at the defenders. A few threw molotov cocktails at them, and finally a rocket was fired from somewhere in the crowd at the defenders. The rebels cheered as one and began firing on the soldiers.

"We ahve been fired on General!"
"Return Fire. All of you. Fire until all rebels are dead."
An M1A2 Abrams turned it's turret up to the building that the RPG came from.
"Target locked. Fire! Fire!"
A massive explosion in the building. A large fire broke out in the building.
As the Rebels fired on the troops, they took cover behind the tanks and APC's. Then they heard over their radios:
"All Bedouin soldiers are to return fire agianst the rebels. Shoot to kill and kill until they are all dead."
As the rebels came closer soldeirs appeared form behind the APC's and tanks. They all fired together. A hailstorm of bullets came at the rebels. Bullets ripped through the crowd. The tanks and APC's opened up with their
.50 cals. The tanks loaded their anti-personel rounds. Claymores began exploding.
"What is going on out there?" yelled the President.
"Exactly what you ordered sir. A brutal suppression of the rebels"...

Three Days Later
The professionalism of the emergency services in the capital city that responded to the biological hazard in the International Airport saved thousands of lives. 30% of the one hundred and fifteen thousand commuters that could have been infected were confirmed to be infected with this new biologically enhanced plague virus. The patients had been whisked away in containment trucks to a secure biological research and hospital facility two hundred miles west in the Cadian region where of the 30% infected, 98% successfully incubated the virus and subsequently died, the other patients were fighting for their lives but were showing signs that the immune system was giving up the battle. Whoever ‘Patient Zero’ was in the Bedouin Raiders, he or she had already killed thousands of Stevidians and many more could be dead within a few hours. The Bedouin Raiders’ government had been silent and still hadn’t opened a dialogue with the Holy Empire about how to combat the virus however since it had been confirmed that the epicentre of the whole outbreak was in Bedouin Raiders, the Foreign Office’s attention was now fixed wholly on this new country, the secret service had already gotten members of MI6 inside the borders of the Bedouin Raiders and were busy talking the to population about the virus and the actions of their government. It was becoming more and more obvious to the Holy Empire that they had once again stumbled across another small belligerent nation that saw military action as the answer to every thing and would pursue its futile goals to the bitter end. The country Bedouin Raiders was dubbed as ‘Country Zero’ by the Holy Empire, nothing demeaning but merely a tag to showed that it was in that country where the virus outbreak first started, the government had taken a stereotypical Right Wing view to the whole plague outbreak by ignoring the people and going after the thugs who claimed so many lives. The plague had swept through their country and thus could no longer be properly contained indefinitely but instead of caring for their people, the government seemed hell bent catching the terrorists who had started the outbreak. Stevid had avoided a nation pandemic destroying the Empire because of quick action and making every step necessary to look after the population and prevent more deaths while worrying about the terrorists who caused it another time.
Now that the plague was contained and biological hazard teams and researchers were working on an anti-virus, the government could now turn to Bedouin Raiders and either work with them or against them over this whole fiasco. Reports from agents in Bedouin Raiders sent that the government had started just sending in troops into any suspect nation in a bid to find the terrorist camps, thus destroying any sovereign rights that country had. Word had gotten out that they weren’t declaring war but were just trampling all over the place looking for these terrorists. Admittedly they had had some success but the majority of cases proved void of terrorist activities, Bedouin Raiders was acting like an international police force armed with an organised military. Going after terrorists with the military was like going after a fly with an anti-tank missile launcher… perceived success but in reality very little success at all. Anti-terrorism has nothing to do with the military, it’s a job for the intelligence services and MI6 in the Holy Empire would lead the way while watching Bedouin Raiders and her allies cause widespread devastation and huge collateral damage to every suspect sight they came across. But in order to gain some intelligence leads, the Empire was forced to interact with the Bedouin Raiders… inadvertently of course.
Military Intelligence Six Headquarters- Stevid Capita
MI6 HQ, a notable building in Stevid and one of the capital city’s favourite tourist attractions but also the hub of international surveillance and cyber-terrorism. The War of Golden Succession had taught MI6 and MI5 many things about a cyber war and computer espionage after the Merkar Republic stole 30 Terabytes of data from the government, military and intelligence computers during the latter quarter of the war. Using the same techniques used to fool the government’s own computer defences, MI6 would break into the heavily guarded military database of Bedouin Raiders and the relatively unprotected medical research database of the same nation.
It was relatively simple, cyber terrorism used the internet and various other phone lines to gain access to another country on the cybernetic level and it didn’t take long for MI6 to get into one of the major service providers of the internet and telecommunications of Bedouin Raiders. However this was not achieved directly and in hacking terminology, the Bedouin Raiders’ government was ‘Spiked’. MI6 went through 80,000 different servers over two hundred countries, encrypting and covering their tracks each time before reaching Bedouin Raiders. Their government would notice a hacker had stolen mountains of valuable data but it would take countless weeks to find out which person, country or organisation committed the theft. Low grade hacking that the huge super computers in MI6 had no trouble of achieving and from their IP addresses of Bedouin Raiders’ computers and severs became known to MI6. The supercomputers probed the government computers but took nearly three hours of subtle probing before the first firewalls could be bypassed, all the while the computers were looking for trap doors built in by the designers to let them in with just a single password in the event of system catastrophe. Several were picked up and broken into and it was from there the human beings of MI6 began sifting through the foreign data looking for leads of the terrorists who were behind the actual manufacture of the virus. NO such leads were found which could only mean that Bedouin Raiders had no idea where that element of the terrorist organisation was located but there were enough names and locations to work from for MI6 to hunt down and find the place were the virus was grown and the people who created and designed it. The trigger was pulled and nearly 10 terabytes of detail military information regarding the terrorists belonging to Bedouin Raiders was copied and stolen by the Stevidian Holy Empire, MI6 followed its own trail of breadcrumbs back through the trillions and trillions of alleyways of the internet, destroying the link to each one on the way until the data made it back to Stevid. The whole operation was conducted in less than four hours.
Similarly the medical database was hacked as well but this was significantly less malicious. The NHS and biological research laboratories didn’t have time to work on from scratch on creating an anti-virus and so needed some additional papers on the virus to work on, information the Bedouin Raiders had. 30 Terabytes were stolen but it would be of no consequence if Stevid was found guilty of that hack, innocence of the previous hacking had been so well covered up it would be notoriously difficult to prove anything other than Stevid being responsible for stealing medical research data for use on finding a stable cure for the virus.
MI6 got to work on the terrorist data and it seemed like the Bedouins were sure the terrorist cells were operating overseas. This had some logical seeing as they had been discovered en mass overseas and had destroyed several camps but the secret service kept an open mind. Perhaps is was easier to be hiding in someplace no one expected, maybe in Bedouin Raiders itself. The work was long and arduous but light was beginning to be shed on the whole incident and now that agents were in the field, Stevid took keep tabs on the happening over there. The Bedouin Raiders thought more action and less thinks was the answer here, it had worked so far but Stevid was being more subtle and favouring intelligence over brute strength. This tactic would prove more successful, Stevid hadn’t fired a shot in anger against the terrorists yet and was now significantly closer to finding the masterminds behind this plot than her counterparts were who were busy firing guns at a reclusive and dangerous enemy.

Trouble Overseas
It appears that a deadly virus has spread quickly in the North Americas. It is believed to be a biological attack by a terrorist group and military forces have invaded a nation they believer the group is located in. "This could cause quite a bit of calamity for our North American investments," says Automobile Manufacturing Industrialist, Klaus Johnson.
The President of Avalic, David Avalice is going to be sending foreign aid to help the war effort in the North Americas, to weed out the terrorists. About 10 million krotes, one hundred thousand soldiers, one FV4034 Challenger 2, and five Aérospatiale Gazelles are being sent to help the war effort. In a survey, 43% of the participants are saying this is only being done to protect foreign assets in the North Americas. The other 57% are divided to two possible alternate reasons why aid is being sent. A, to stop the terrorist problem in the world, or B, to stop the virus from spreading to Europe.
In other news, this plague is affecting air and sea traffic as well. Seven out of ten of the major ferries are closed and two airports have canceled all flights coming in and to the North Americas. Harbors, however, are still open for trade only. HAZMAT suits are being produced and scientists are trying to make a vaccine. All current available HAZMAT suits, that were available in stores have been bought by the government to be used in the war. God speed to the men who are going over seas.

"I will be brief. This is what the rebel leader told me. He heard them speaking of an impending attack. Apparently they have penetrated the orginaization with their Intell agents. They are going to have a spec-ops team come here and they will get in because their spies will let them in."...
"Where are the test results from the lab?"
"Right here Mr. President."
"Very good" The presdient read the results. "So our lab techies were able to mutate the plague?"
"Yes."
"And the plan has been executed?"
"Yes sir."

"Very well. Thank you for the information. However..." A number of men appearred, armed with Ak-107's, and pointed their guns at the man's head. "I'm afraid we cannot let you leave. In case you have betrayed us, you understand."
OCC: Once my tech weenies find out that it was you I ahve a special response.It is up to you to determine how long before they do. Just tell me in real time on here not the tiem in the game or else we will be here a while. Then you will understand what my retaliation will be.
OOC: You can make a post saying your tech dudes found out I did it either tonight or tomorrow but say it took a few days. My agents didn't cover their tracks well on the medical database hack and I hacked your military database at around the same time. So your guys can put two and two together and guess it was Stevid. You'll have evidence about the medical database hack but not the military one, but that shouldn't stop you blaming me for both.
OOCly can i ask for some info on the terrorists? Which country are they numerous most? I was under the impression that their leaders and their lab tech guys who created the virus are actually in the country of Bedouin Raiders...

OCC: Okay sounds good. Actually I don't think any of them are. I know the original attack came from somewhere else. i can't remember where. you will find it at the beginning of the thread. This anthrax one I am not sure where but I believe it is not in Bedouin Raiders.
ICC;
"I understand. Security reasons. Just hurry."
"How long before they see the effects?"
"Patient zero should show syptoms in about an hour. It takes that long to incubate."
"Very well." replyed the Presidnet.
OOC: Sorry it is so late. RL issues really got the better of me for a while. Anyway I hope this post is worth your waiting.
IC:
Several days had passed since the legally hacking of military and medical databases of the B. Raiders and had given the intelligence services a lot of time to sift through the data and track down specific targets and possible locations for terrorist bases in Fighter4u. It had also given the military time to organise themselves and prepare for an attack on the terrorist bases once they had been properly located, a rapid reaction force was to be sent but not from Stevid. Being an Empire and a sea going nation the Royal Navy was all over the planet with military and logistic shipping performing peacekeeping, anti-piracy and general Imperial Province patrols, within a day a sizable fleet was well on its way to Fighter4u:
3x Lustria Class LCPs (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=80)
1x Inquisition Class DN (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=133)
3x Havenic Class BBCN Command Battleships (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=124)
4x Jade Class CA (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=138)
6x Winchester Class CLG (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=146)
1x London Class CAGN (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=143)
7x Starling Class FFE (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=139)
8x Lemartes Class DDG (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=122)
1x Hanover Class C-ECMW (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=112)
1x Defiler Class CC+ (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=72)
The key notes of the fleet were that almost all the missile frigates, destroyers, cruisers and the single dreadnought all carried the Holy Grail AShM and the exceptionally deadly Gothic AShM- both capable of eliminating a super dreadnought. Other notable ships were the Lustria Class LCPs. Two contained just Royal Marines and supplies, a total of 9,000 Royal Marines in total of several different battalions, the last LCP had directly sailed from Stevid loaded with vehicles, Jeeps, Viking transport APCs, Warrior light tanks, Predator MBTs, two bipedal tanks and Paladin SP artillery. The Empire was going all out with its military ability.
The most notable ship classes of all were the Lemartes Class DDG and the Hanover Class C-ECMW. The Lemartes Class has been seen as one of the best destroyers in the world, advanced weaponry and electronics, Marines and a first rate engines and a large, quick helicopter make it one of the most formidable destroyers on the seas today. It holds Gothic and Holy Grail missiles and so on paper can sink a super dreadnought. The Hanover Class is the fleet’s sole electronic warfare vessel. Using several super computers and a dazzling array of sensors and radar equipment, the Hanover Class put up a barrage of ECM and ECCM signals to utterly confuse enemy sensor equipment. The Hanover Class’ equipment is so powerful that most electronic equipment not on the same frequency as the C-ECMW is affected. It is armed with anti-missile defence systems including ECM missiles and fragmentation missiles to destroy incoming ordnance. The fleet was so well protected it could fight a small war and win.
Two Days Later (OOC: Bit of fluid time to move this RP along a bit)
Dawn had arrived and the light to east revealed land to the north of the fleet as it steamed northwards, Fighter4u. The Royal Navy had reached their target and although their presence was no expected and they would have the element of surprise for hours to come, Fighter4u would not just let a force like this get away with walking on their territory. A strike force of Royal Marines, light vehicles and the two bipedal tanks supported by aircraft from the carrier would be all that should be needed to eliminate the terrorist camp, tanks would not be sent in unless an air evacuation of the troops sent in became impossible. The terrorist camp was some fifty miles inland which was a hell of a trek for an MBT and logistic vehicles to make and so a massive beach landing would not only aggravate the defenders further but also be a waste of time for the Navy as well.
Orders were passed along to troop commanders of the Royal Marines and various other commanders who would be controlling units in the hot zone, heavy lift Chinook helicopters thumped loudly on the aft landing deck of the Lustria carriers loading on marines and supplies for the up and coming battle. Surprise was still on their side but they could not afford to waste any time and so had to move as quickly as possible. Within twenty minutes eight Chinooks loaded with Royal Marines were circling inside the fleet while four more with several light vehicles took off as well- they also dangled out a 105mm artillery piece each as well as ammo crates for the four big guns. On the Lustria LCP load with the heavy duty tanks the main landing deck doors in the aft quarter were open as to Chinooks hovered over the back as naval crew below fixed the two bipedal tanks to the several winches the Chinooks had lowered. In total, to hours had passed since dawn had arrived and there were fourteen Chinooks in the air heading straight for Fighter4u, that’s 770 full armed tactical Royal Marines, just over thirty light vehicles, four artillery pieces, two bipedal tanks all of which are supplied by what the Chinooks bring with further airlifts available. In case the enemy had reacted quickly to the appearance of a foreign fleet on the fringes of their territorial waters, the aircraft carrier and the three Lustria LCPs deployed aircraft ahead of the main force including ground attack XF-24 Scorpion (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=92), and the carrier based air superiority XF-23 Nightwalker (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=76) armed with long range and short range anti-air missiles and anti-radiation missiles design to seek out ground targets using radar, be they SAM sites or radar themselves. In either case the enemy would be able to attack the helicopters even if they wanted to because surprise was on the Navy’s side and there was a wall of aircraft they had to eliminate first.
However there were signs that the enemy had responded to the incursion, four aircraft had entered radar range to the east and three Nightwalkers broke formation and would head east for twenty miles to engage the reconnaissance force Fighter4u had sent while the helicopters would land several miles before reaching the training camp, but they were running out of time and they had to make the best use of what time they had before the terrorists had realised what was happening or before Fighter4u could mobilise and effective defence. IN a large scale ground conflict Stevid would lose, tanks hadn’t been deployed yet to counter a large offensive, just enough to destroy terrorist camp and get out.
The artillery dropped down first with its ammo on a hill top several miles from the terrorist camp while the light vehicles deployed with the 770 Royal Marines. They organised themselves quickly and fanned out over four miles and began to encircle the camp. Special Forces were present taking up sniper positions and relaying information back to the advancing troops. The two Bipedal tanks (http://z15.invisionfree.com/Stevid_MoD/index.php?showtopic=4) were dropped off last about a mile in front of the artillery before it started firing, once all the landings and initial supply drop offs were complete the entire force advanced on the camp. Within hours they would reach the camp and prepare for a full attack.
The Marines couldn’t be seen, not well anyway using their unusual digital pattern camouflage to advance within properly being seen. The light vehicles had provide transport for the Marines on their journey to the camp but now took cover over a hill to stay out of sight. The snipers had stayed on as spotters for the artillery and preliminary air strikes but air support was not 100% guaranteed because Fight4u and had now learned their was a foreign invasion force in the sea and actually on their home soil and would quickly get aircraft in the air to defend against any airborne attackers. The Marines had to move in quickly to attack the base and so the attack started with haste. The four Royal Marine artillery pieces opened fire first raining shells down onto the un expecting terrorist camp below, plume of black smoke rose from the impact craters as the troops inside rushed around in panic trying to ascertain where the attack had come from, it was 2:55am and surprise had been achieved. Only two Scorpion attack aircraft had been able to make it to the frontline and fired anti-radiation missiles at the SAM sites before beginning their run with bunker busting bombs on the main gate and pill boxes before strafing the barren parts of the base in case of mines. The enemy had returned fire with manned AA guns and one Scorpion was successfully hit. It didn’t crash but was trailing black smoke and limped away from the combat area, it was enough to force the planes to retreat without completing the whole combat run. Artillery continue to flatten parts of the base with astonishing accuracy but now the base had organised some defence and were beginning to anticipate a full attack. The Royal Marines had waited long enough, they advanced quickly and silently while the jeeps and APC moved up onto the hill line and opened fire with heavy machine guns and mortars that popped and landed small shells into the fiery base. The two bipedal tanks were half running over the hillside in the east, their menace shadows silhouetted the main gate that had been bombed by the aircraft but had survived the attack. The two tanks were too far away to attack yet and so continued to advance westwards from the east towards the main gate. The Royal Marines had now reached the compound but the watch towers had spotted the foot soldiers and began to open fire with heavy machine guns on the Marines who were caught in the open. Several were killed in minutes, high tech military grade computer gear or not, the troops were far from invincible. The snipers on the hillside regretted not killing the machine gunner earlier but they now opened fire on the every watch tower in sight while Marines pour their own machine gun fire into the camp, they also deployed satchel charges to the walls of the compound allowing the Marines to not just enter the compound through the main gate. The artillery had since stopped but now the light vehicles had reached the compound and had deployed minefield netting and now allowed the Marines to advance into the compound with sine moving cover.
Base defence was sporadic but they concentrated their fire like professionals destroying three jeeps and one APC and continued to fire on the Royal Marines. Troop casualties were light but the vehicle losses were mounting up as the terrorist fighters got their act together. In was more than unlikely they would hold against such well trained and professional troops but time was not of the essence for the terrorists. The Royal Marines had to get into, find the leader, the laboratory, computers and data, destroy the base and get out before the country’s actual defence force found them here. If that happened then a full scale battle would ensue and the tanks still on the LCP would have to be deployed to ensure the Marines were not all killed. Time was indeed of the essence for the Stevidian troops.

OOC: RL got me too.
IC:
In Fighter4u airspace. Three RF-12A2 Blackbird II,and an SR-71 aircraft raced toward the coast to peform recon on the enemy ships. What they saw as they blasted pasted the unknowed hostile fleet surpise them.
A flash 1 message was sent to fighter4u high command. Informing them that a large enemy fleet of unknowed orgin has invaded F4U waters and was of techongly that that outclass F4U own ships.(To put it gently.)
Soon every base within fighter4u was ordered to high alert. When F4U high command flashed The Southern Command. Which was responiable for the defense of fighter4u southern region. It receive no reply. It could only be assumed that the plaudge has knocked out TSC. Fighter4u ground forces quickly responded and sealed off the corrioders to the rest of fighter4u. Fighter4u forces begin moisbling to meet the attack.
But as quickly as the flash message was sent. Four hostile aircraft attacked the recon planes. The SR-71 quickly sped away as the three Blackbirds IIs sped up and locked ontohe incoming planes. Fired their MIRVs and long range missiles and then quickly jigged to aviod any return fire before coming behind and opening up fire with short range missles and heavy machine gun and valcun machine gun fire. Then they raced away.

http://acecombat.wikia.com/wiki/Su-37_Terminator
Mainwhile fighter4u started lanching F/A-18F Super Hornets,EF-2000 Typhoons,and Sukhoi Su-37s to defend agaisnt enemy aircrafts and destroy any invasion force that tryed to land. 60 aircraft would be up in the air at any time,while another 86 where scatter between the eastern F4U airbases.
~~~~~Mainwhile in the southern desert~~~~~~~~~
The terriosts fought bravely,but they were no match. Out of the 337 terriosts at the bases. Over a 160 were dead within the first few
minutes of combat. Another 140 deid when they engage the marines in the trenches. Ferious hand to hand fighting broke out. The rebel leader knew time was up. So he took he 5 best bodyguards who were armed with Uzis,the "package" and fled through a tunnel within the HQ. The last 32 "elite" terriost freedom fighters were pinned within the last trenches by the HQ. Here they dug in and bit back with heavy machines guns. Giving the squad leader enough time to start the base code red count down. Thirty seconds later, the base was rocked as it went up in flames from explosions hiden deep under the ground. The HQ collapose and most of the terriosts along with a sizeable portion of the attackers were wiped out.
~~~~~~~~~~~Fighter4u Southern Command~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"The enemy has landed",reported a captain pointing to a huge map of southern fighter4u,"here at the Bloody Roses base and begun attacking it."
As ordered,the Rebel Armor 13rd company and a infantry company has come behind the enemy force and should has started their attack by now. With any luck. Stevid will be force to devlope a invasion force and push F4U to the brink of war. Such collpsing central command and allowing us to take control of the country."
~~~~~~~Back in the southern desert~~~~~~~~~~~
The Rebel troops quickly circle the special forces and open fire. With such surpise and firepower at their use. The Special forces stood no chance.
Rebel tanks quickly sped out to the smokey ruin of the terriost base and open fire on confused and demorlaise enemy forces. Infanty units quickly follow and any enemy unit(Stevid or terriost)were quickly being sliced to ribbions. But before a force could be sent into the base to destroy any remaining enemy forces.
The bipel tanks attacked. Rebel units quickly withdrewn from the expose battlefield as the "tanks" open fire. Rebel forces took heavy losts. They quickly regroup and attacked the walking tanks with RPGs,small arm fire,tanks rockets,machine gun fire and motars.
Mainwhile a F4U SR-71 silently watched the battle and reported the happenings to F4U Central Command. F4U[CC] order the F4U 6rd and 7rd armor company,2rd,3rd and 5rd infanty units to process to the battle area and engage the tanks.
Also 673 basitlic missiles were fired from all over fighter4u nation at the hostile fleet,as the F4U aircrafts broke from their defensive patterns and headed toward the enemy fleet;seconds after the missiles hit.
The F/A-18F Super Hornets,Blackbirds IIs,EF-2000 Typhoons,and Sukhoi Su-37s. A-10A Thunderbolt IIs,UG-16s,Hawk-900 Geopelias and the Mirage 2000D attacked the fleet. Flying either just over the waves, at utra -high attiudes or middle to hgih attuides. Such forcing the enemy to spilt up it defense missiles.
Mainwhile the Second carrier fleet of F4U lanched Blackburn Buccaneers and Tornado F3s along with the F/A-32C Ernes and a squadron of Sukhoi Su-37s.

The fleet itself was a reglaur modern era fleet. It had two AEGIS class ships,a carrier,6 figirates,4 cursiers,and two battle ships. F4U also has many defensive coastal ships that would hold back,in case of a enemy invasion by sea.
All of this was over seen by a 767 AWACS that was protected by 6 Y-25C JSFs.
Mainwhile while all of this was happening. Six nulear powered subs would fire their missiles at the escorts ships. To sink them while seven deisal subs would sliently slip in and attack the captial class ships. Mainwhile just before the bastilic missiles hit. The fighter4u navy will use five specially made underwater battleships that will sneak within half a mile of the battle group and then surface quickly and fire it own hail of missiles;point blank range at the enemy ships. While another six will open fire on a third fornt as a distraction to draw defense missle fire away from the bastlic missilies and aircraft.
As this is happening a underwater carrier will fire Decoy UCAVs into the air to simtle a enemy airattack and waste enemy missiles. Then it will retreat,after the bastlic attack,it will fire unmanned X-45s.Which will attack with MIRVs.

Should the attack fail. F4U[CC] would consider using nulear weapons in a last ditch effort to defend itself.
Southern Desert- Bloody Rose Terrorist HQ
It had gone better than planned, the artillery several miles away had utterly destroyed much of the trench system and the assaulting Royal Marines had broken straight into the camp with very little casualties, the light vehicles and APCs provided what heavy support they could and quickly allowed their own complement of Marines till inside to disembark and directly assault the trenches. A swift and bloody had-to-hand combat battle was fought in the main command trench before the HQ building. The Marines overwhelmed it easily and a single platoon was ordered into the HQ building, meanwhile the Major in charge of the assault ordered the Marines organise themselves into a defensive position to prevent a counter-attacking force from retaking the area as it was more than likely that the Fighter4u homeland defence forces were en route- surprise had been utilised and now it was time to seize the objective and get out as soon as possible.
A squad of four Marines raided a communications shed and found nothing of much importance in there apart from several radio frequencies scribbled down next to a set of four or more coordinates which may have been more terrorist bases. The documents were seized and the Marines returned to organising the defence. The bipedal tanks and performed exceptionally well and had scored nearly thirty kills between them, they would provide the bulk of the anti-air and anti-tank defence should any Fight4u force converge on the HQ camp, the light vehicles prepared themselves for spearheading their own assault while several platoons of Marines dug them selves fox holes and a few other squads began scouting ahead of the base to watch for enemy forces.
Meanwhile the Royal Marines squad inside the HQ were busy sniffing out the terrorist leader, room by room they searched the HQ building while sporadic enemy fire was silenced outside. The Marines killed whoever they found inside until they came a across a large room, badly lit and ransacked. It was a pigsty of a room, computers and chair thrown all over the place but in one corner it was particular hideous. It was the laboratory, the very same where the virus was created and a definite biohazard, the place was a wreck and there were beakers, test tubes and their contents on the floors, the work tops and all up the walls.
“Masks on…” Sergeant Willows of the Marine squad growled as he pulled down his own gas mask. He was a hard man, huge at seven tall and bulky with muscles, he was a human tank and a perfect leader. He and his squad put on their gas masks and headed through the contaminated room and out one of the back exits that led out of the building and the compound. As soon as they turn the corner, an unknown group of men opened fire narrowly missing the Marines who scattered down the corridor and returned fire. These were body guards, mercenaries, well trained and armed and took longer to kill, in the distance a man was seen running away. It was ten minutes later before the Marines caught sight of him again on a large concrete road just outside of the main building. The crackle of nearby machine gunfire told them that only a few rebellious terrorists remained alive but the Marines cared little, they had the target and he was carrying a white protective case in one hand and something small in the other.
Sergeant Willows raised his assault rifle and was about to fire when the terrorist leader pressed a button on the small device he was holding. The HQ exploded into a massive fireball taking the Marine squad with it and several others who were caught up in the blast radius. But things quickly went from bad to worse as Fighter4u forces quickly appear on the scene, no aircraft but MBTs and troops and wasted no time opening fire on the Marines. Their fire was accurate and several marines were killed quickly with no return losses, however the Bipedal tanks proved their worth once more. The powerful armour and the remarkable agility of the behemoths made them deadly in combat and they quickly caused significant losses to the enemy strike force. Forward Marine and sniper positions transmitted coordinates to the artillery pieces several miles away and soon 105mm shells began falling on the attacking Fighter4u forces that continued to pour fire into the Marines who remained resilient to the fire, standing their ground and not retreating despite the mounting casualties. Air support had been called for as an airlift seemed like the only option for the Marines at this point but word had reached the Major that an attack on the fleet at sea demanded that air resources be used to clean up enemy aircraft and defend the fleet.
Time was of the essence for the Marines more than ever now, this time because they if they dawdled now, they’d be killed outright.
Southern Coast of Fighter4u
The fleet was arranged into battle formation and had been for some time now, the Defiler Class command cruiser had kept tabs on the approaching fleet for hours and had come to the conclusion it was a carrier force designed to repel Stevid from these waters. The aircraft launched from both the mainland and the carrier was of various concerns, several of the aircraft were of little or no concern to the Royal Navy. The Buccaneer, the F3 and the Erne were very old and although the RAF still used the Tornado F3 back home in Stevid, it was relegated to a reserve aircraft for whenever the going got tough for the homeland. The F-25 was well known about already and again Stevid used it too along with a sea variant of the EF-2000. The Mirages were obsolete but respected for their agility. The other aircraft required more attention, the Geopelia and Hawk required closer attention considering one used a fluoride laser as an anti-air weapon. Not much use against shipping and not the most accurate of weapons but lethal against aircraft. The Lemartes Class destroyer had one on each side of it to fight off aircraft and they would show the Fighter4u aircraft just how effective its lasers were.
The inbound ballistic missiles were a lot but proved to be not quite a huge threat as the enemy thought, the SSA and a Damirez space company had government funding for a Joint Initiative (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=540356) to expand the military and civilian life into space. The missile defence network that engulfed the entire Holy Empire, the Principality and the United States of Independent Hitmen was designed to destroy inbound ballistic missiles and retaliate (if ordered) with space launched nuclear missiles and tungsten slugs. The fleet could fire SM-3s into the atmosphere to destroy surviving missiles, failing that the lasers on the Lemartes destroyers would take out missiles that were stilling dropping on the fleet, after that a last ditch attempt to shoot the missiles down with AA fire would begin with assistance from the Hanover Class ECM/ECCM cruiser with it’s anti-missile missiles and heavy ECM jamming. After all this the fleet would carry out evasive manoeuvres to escape death from above. Ballistic missile suffered from being inaccurate, travelling at nearly six times the speed of sound it meant that course corrections, no matter how small, could send a missile wildly off course. When the enemy missiles fell only a though had gotten through. The missile defence grid in space served its purpose well and wiped out the majority of missiles, the fleet took out several more with standard missiles modified for long range AA defence, the Hanover cruiser fired its own special missiles that took out dozens more and its ECM jamming allowed the fleet time to manoeuvre to safety while the fleet escorts poured fire upwards into the sky. Although most of the missiles were destroyed, thirty did break through the flak. Fifteen fell into the sea narrowly missing their targets including the LCP HMS Porpoise which was damaged by the shockwaves cause by the resulting explosion just off its port bow. The Inquisition Class dreadnought was lightly damaged the same way off its aft port quarter and so its top speed was slashed almost by a third. The fifteen other missiles hit their targets. Excellent tracking and target prioritising done by the Defiler Class C&C cruiser meant most of the capital ships avoided destruction but several ships were hit and completely destroyed by the strikes, at least to a certain degree that they would never fight again. Two Jade Class cruisers were hit by separate missiles, one stayed afloat with few survivors while the other exploded with the missile and sunk in minutes. Five Starling Class frigates were destroyed in similar fashion as was a single Lemartes Class destroyer. Two Winchester Class light cruisers were destroyed with one taking two missiles at once which almost completely vaporised it but the worst of strikes was the loss of one of the Havenic Class Command Battleships. These huge ships were shorter and less protected than dreadnoughts but carried similar firepower and one was sunk by the enemy BM strike. HMS Dutiful was hit by two missiles almost at once which almost instantly destroyed the ship but left enough of it intact to stay afloat. The thick deck armour and fire control teams did enough to stop the missile racks and cannon magazines from exploding thus allowing members of the crew to evacuate the ship. Ten minutes later two more missiles struck the doomed ship and she exploded in spectacular fashion before making her short trip to the bottom of the sea.
The battle wasn’t over yet, aircraft began to attack the fleet with long range missiles. These were basic missile to the Royal Navy, sea skimmers both large and small and were not too difficult to shoot down with their powerful AA array. The ILMS and laser cannons did what they could but the Hanover Class EW cruiser again excelled in missile defence and utilised every weapon it had to render the what missiles the enemy had useless. Three missiles did get through and seriously damaged another Winchester Class light cruiser. She wasn’t destroyed but disengaged to the logistic support fleet several miles away for repairs. The Inquisition Class dreadnought itself, the flagship of the fleet was struck by the other two missiles but her solid armour was more than a match for the enemy missiles and the damage was merely cosmetic. The enemy aircraft wouldn’t come any closer so as to avoid being wiped out by superior firepower. The LCPs launched their Nightwalker aircraft to engage the enemy aircraft, hopefully they would be more than a match for the enemy planes but some of these aircraft had never been encountered before. One thing for certain was that the Royal Navy display it’s full wrath against the enemy fleet for destroying one of their capital ships and so many of the escorts.
The Holy Grail and Gothic missiles were different to ordinary AShMs, by falling out of the sky like Fighter4u’s ballistic missiles they avoiding all but the most advanced CIWS fire, they fell at an incredible almost vertical angle which meant deep penetration against weak deck armour before exploding with apocalyptic force. Two missiles could destroy a carrier, three or four could destroy a huge battleship, just one could cripple a cruiser or even destroy it, and escorts stood no chance- these missiles were supposed to destroy super dreadnoughts.
The dreadnought and the Winchester light cruisers launched over one hundred of these missiles, the escorts reserved their payload to see just what would happen to the fleet. A prolonged missile fight would prove favourable for the Royal Navy. The fleet continued to approach the enemy fleet so it could close the distance between it and the enemy aircraft but also so the command battleships and the dreadnought could use their big 21” and 25” guns to silence the enemy fleet once and for all.

Southern Desert- Bloody Rose Terrorist HQ
The F4U 6rd armor division was all but wiped out when the Bipedals tanks responded with a full attack. The 3rd infanty company that was hiding among the 6rd tanks,were quickly annihilated. Their screams haunted the air,as the dancing of shadows from the flames,danced acrosss the desert floor. But mostly the rebels units were hit first and destroyed. Saving F4U heavier losses.
The 7rd armor division took 4 or 5 tanks destroy and 7 knocked out of actions. Their crews running for their lifes. But the tanks quickly organzne themself into 6 groups to surrond the tanks and open fire on all directions. Mainwhile the 2rd took losses in the order of half of it company and 1/4 of 5rd company was killed or wounded,respectfully.
Meanwhile A-10 Thunderbolts bomb the bipedals tanks with rockets and bombs. Filling the air with smoke. While special forces paratroopers landed behind the enemy artillery and launched a assault with LAVs as support on the artilley. But the aircover was for a brief time as their was only 35 A-10s and a few escorts planes,obsolete even by fighter4u standards.
Fighter4u defense was now mosible. As the southern area was reknowed for rebel activites. Fighter4u has several bases in the area. Where the 37rd,46rd infanty and 17rd,43rd armored units adance on the bipedals.
Using speeding MTBs to surrond the bipedals and keep it busy. While infanty fire whatever they have,from whatever cover they have.Patriot missles will also be fired at the bipedals. Manually aimed of course.Due tot he fact you couldn't lock onto this dam thing! But then again,you can't miss such a huge target.
Infanty used RPGs to aimed at the bipedals "tail"in a effort to disstablize it and knock it over.Such,making it a easier target. The new laser guided shoulder-fired SAMs were used by the newly arrived troops. Who aimed for the weapons and tail on the Bipedals. Well the miltia type troops recived CLOS missles,which weren't as useful. Due to the hectric nature of the battle.
Every now and then aircraft would do bombing or straze runs on the tanks. But after some big losses. Kept their distance and aimed for the enemy marines. Who were being engaged by fighter4u 46rd infanty and a mechized unit of LAV and APCs, help fight the enemy marines. Who held on even against such straggering losses. Fighter4u forces were being hit hard also. Al, of the F4U first on the sense,were now in the 70-80% cataulies rate and the newer units were taking 30% losses.
U-16s were called to arrive and attack the Bipedals. If they arrive in time. They could do heavy damage without suffering many losses.
~~~~~~~-------A little way off from the battle-------~~~~~
The terriost leader of the B.R woke up to the sounds of gunfire,screaming and death. Images came back to him. Of the attacked by highly trained enemy forces,the shoot out and the desruction of the HQ. The dead marines were near him. Because of how their bodys was stacked up. None has notice him. He was far from the fighting anyway and they seen to be pretty busy. He checked he pocket to make sure he still had the "package" a sermial for the plaudge and the virus itself. Now if only he could get to a palce where this would be useful.Find out what going on. So he started crawling away. When he was a mile from the battle. Bijuins stumbled across him. They were the native settlers of the desert some 300 years ago. They remain netural in the constantly shifting poltical world of fighter4u. Which is why they were mostly lefted alone. They picked him up and brough him to their camp. Which was well campflauge and shielded from the sun and peering eyes. They fixed him up and brought him to a road where he could get a ride from a old friend to the city of Ashlind. A port city of fighter4u east coast. Their Helany O'Keefe would be their. She owned him big. She would get him out of the country.
Bunker room of the Fighter4u[CC]
"Sir!"said a aid to a 4 star gernael."Jack and I been pouring over reports of what been happening and we think we know why Stevid attacked us." Appearly their a rouge member of our government that controls F4u[SC] and unleash a plaudge in the area.So we hand control over to them. And then they waited until it spreaded to a country that was big enough to be a threat to us and could find out the virus came from us. After that nation attacked us and topple our government. The plan was for them to take action and take control of the country. Unforantly for them. They ended up messing with somebody a little too big and all their plans went haywired".
"Well then Tomas,"said the 4 star"We know Greg is the TSC leader. Why hadn't we attrested him yet?"
"Well sir"replyed the aid"He was found dead in his aparment when the SWAT broke in. Death was sudical. But looking through his place. We found some names and got a Special-Op team heading to Ashlind,as that where we think he might go."
"Well then!How the sea battle gonig with Stevid? Any chance we can get them to talk with us?"
"No sir. They have some kind of jamming and ECm measures with their fleet. We been unable to do so. And we have no idea,how to contact the fleet government. We hadn't even heared of Stevid before. They might just decide to wipe us off the map!"
"Jesus,this just keeps on getting worst! How the recon planes doing in the south?Alright sir. But the pictures they brough back our pretty grim."
"Just give it to me son."
"Out of the 1.75 billion people in the south. Over 170 million our dead from the virus and another 45 million from stravation,looting and disease. The citys are dead traps. The only thing that moves are wild dogs and a few people who have mange to hang on. Until we can geta ahnd on the invasion and find the guy who made this virus. Their noting we can do.All those people...."
"It alright son, long as they got people like who working for them. Their hope. Your doing a good job.Keep it up and you might be promoted. After this shit done hitting the fan.
The Eastern Sea
In the eastern sea. The fighter4u fleet quickly went into defensive mode. Switching off their radar to try and minuial what the missles could lock onto.The carrier escorts proviod the majority of the battlegroup defense. The umanned XR-900 Geopelias used their laser cannons and quick speed and agility to track and to either destroy or wound the battlics missles,before they could speed up and get into a flight path. Such causing them to crash harmlessy into the sea.(Unless you were a fish anyway.) More then 2/3 of Steivd missles died this way. Another 15 were destroyed by the Aegis defense systems. A hail of gunfire by the ships.
Then a brave and herico Captian of the Cruiser P.R.S.S.F. Charger,in a desparte bid to save the aircraft carrier. Brought his ship close up to two figrates in a attempte to have the missles lock onto the single large radar output they emitted when they all stwich on their radar. This fooled a a couple more missiles. Causing 3 missles to crash due to the crouse ajustment and 11 more missles aimed for the fake carrier. They hit the ships,and after the smoke and flames clear. The Charger and the 2 figrates were noting but dust.
The only 7 missles target the remaining ships. Due to their vertical angle, the missles had a smaller target to hit. So 18 other missles narrowly missed their targets and caused shockwaves for the carrier,rocking her badly and causing some aircraft on borad to be badly damged. Enough so they had to be pitched overborad later.
The rest of the fleet used this to their adavanght. Two missles hit a battleship and knocked her out of action,while a third missle score a indirect hit soon after and sank it,before it remaining crew could evancted. Another missle hit a figate and blew her up in a massive display of fireworks. Another hit the starport area of a curiser and caused massive damage to the ship. Causing it to sink soon after. An Aegis ship was destroy when 2 missles slammed into her at the same time. The crew had no chance. The last battleship was sunk in half when a missle scored a direct hit on it battery. Other then some fires,whichwere quickly put out,on a few ships. The "fleet" surive. But it was clear it could not surive another embargment like that. And to make matters worth.The enemy fleet was closing in on them to try and engage then gun on gun. With no battleships and being heavily out numbered. The fleet was forced to retreat to fighter4u coastline. Until reenforcement could arrive. The 2rd carrier fleet of fighter4u no longer exist.
The various aircrafts of fighter4u. Already up in the air. Retreated back also. Forming a defensive line of sort between it and the destroyed retreating fleet. The Erne and Tornado F3s about 30 each,F-25,and EF-2000s 30 each,30 Mirages, about 30 Geopelia and 30 Hawks, 40 Su-37s,30 F/A-18Fs and 25 Y-25Cs were delopy to meet the aircraft attack. They enage the enemy with lasers,missles and machine gun fire.
They were set up so that the mainline(centerline) would stop the enemy aircraft adanvce and then the "wings" would cover the enemy aircraft right side and stop them from slipping around the centerline by going left and ahead. To make matters worst for the enemy. Fighter4u "elite" pliots and air squadrons then came from bases on the mainland. Where they were getting ready for a enemy attack. And form a line behind the enemy. Such cutting off their retreat. The planes of these eilte squadrons were 20 X-02 Wyverns,30 CFA-44 Nosferatus,25 F-22A Raptors, 25 ADFX-01/02 Morgans and 25 ADF-01 Falkens. The only way out of this hailstorm of death,missles and screaming hell was left. That and the enemys ships might have to get closer to save their airmen from compelete descurtion. Because one thing was for sure. Fighter4u was going to extract a high price for the death of their seamen. For those the sea now remain in the hands of Stevid. The skies would shortly belong to Fighter4u.
Also for refueling. EK-17Us were nearby with 30 Y-25Cs. Who relguarly returned to base to refuel on their own and our replace by 35 Su-37s,until they return. With their sheer numbers. Fighter4u planes could take turn rearming. Not to forget the forces protecting the base.

DZ-001/ART: 01-03
Drop Zone 001, Artillery Positions one through three. To be precise this was the official military designation for the three static artillery pieces Stevid had firing on the enemy formations attacking the Royal Marines at the terrorist HQ camp. They had been pouring a sustained rate of fire down and deep within the enemy formation and had been highly accurate. The enemy hadn't sniffed out the spotter teams, they were too well concealed and they were far more preoccupied with destroying the Marines than looking for a few sniper teams. The artillery continued to rain down on the Fighter4u forces and had been the Marines' ace in the hole against the defending forces sent to combat them, the three 105mm guns had caused significant losses for the Fighter4u forces and the rate of fire from those artillery pieces had not withered. This was down to Royal Marine Sergeant Thomas Harper, a known slaverdriver when it came to war and was not afraid to crack the whip to make sure his artillery battery met the demands of the Division, today was no different.
"Keep firing! Keep firing! Don't you fucking stop, not for anything! Not water, not ammo, not even for fucking air! God so help me I’ll beat the living shit out of you if you don't not meet the demands of the Major on the frontline!"
The Marines continued to shove shells into the guns as they pounded away almost like machine guns, the smell of cordite was thick and ear drums would be bleeding to destruction if the crews weren't wearing protective ear muffs with built in communication radios. The orders from their commanding officers hit home quickly and the rate of fire increased ever so slightly, no more than maybe three quarters of a second but every second counted in this battle. The Marines would be airlifted out on a matter of minutes but until air support arrived to take them back to the fleet the artillery had to kill as many enemy units as possible to safeguard the lives of those fighting at the front.
"We are the hammer of the Empire! Crush our enemies beneath our raw might! Blow them to shit! Fire faster, FASTER!! The men at the frontline will die without our continued fire support, make sure you listen to the spotter teams' directions and make sure you destroy your targets! More firing! More firing damn you! Act like a fucking Marine soldiers!"
Minutes later the firing delay had been reduce by a further three seconds! It was an outstanding accomplishment and the Sergeant continued to voice 'encouragement' so they could keep up the rate of fire. Personally he conceded they couldn't do any better for it was probably the fastest barrage in the world. The thuds of shells leaving the artillery barrels were loud but the explosions several miles away were louder as the AP shells landed on soft and hard targets. Such a terrifying barrage would be devastating to the enemy's morale, it was terribly accurate and so damn fast and repetitive but DZ-001/ART: 01-03 had been so engrossed in killing the frontline enemy troops that they had neglected their own safety minus a few mobile SAM trucks, this lapse in security would be their downfall. One Marine fell to the floor quiet violently, at first it seemed as if he had tripped and immediately Sergeant Harper slated the downed Marine with a firestorm of profanity and even a dose of blasphemy. But the Royal Marine did not get back up and a pool of blood began to develop below his head, just then two more Marines fell to the floor dead and bullets from assault rifles began to ping of the artillery pieces. They had been outflanked by the enemy and were now under attack from the rear. The barrage had slowed somewhat but it would be noticed by the frontline troops at the HQ, they would know something was wrong because the artillery position had masses of ammunition and so it would be a problem with enemy forces.
Soon the artillery barrage had stopped altogether and the frontline Royal Marines were no longer supported by the crack gunnery of DZ-001/ART: 01-03. A sniper team withdrew from their spotting position not too far from the actual frontline and began the short run to the artillery position. What they found was the remains of the gunnery position and the guns themselves. The Royal Marines had spiked their own guns, as well as the SAMs, to prevent the enemy from using them but they had been overwhelmed by superior forces in the end. The bodies of the Marines were scattered around and after further exploration only a single enemy corpse was found. It had been a rout but the artillery gunners had caused enough damage on the enemy to blunt their attack enough for the marines to survive before the air support arrived, it was up to the frontline Royal Marines to survive so that the sacrifice of the artillery position would not be in vain.
[u][b]Bloody Rose HQ Camp
As it was the Royal marines were losing their grip on the battle. Over a hundred dead and twenty or so more seriously wounded and with more enemy reinforcements on the way, it wasn't looking too good for the Marines and now that fire support was gone it was going to get a lot harder. Several platoons had already moved south towards the coast were an air pick up was safer and quicker because the enemy had become engrossed with the destruction of the bipedal tanks. The Major had ordered their full commitment into the battle so as to give the Marines more time to evacuate the camp, the terrorist leader had escaped along with the virus so the primary mission had been a complete failure but several other terrorist camp locations had been discovered via radio contact and also paperwork on the virus had been recovered, all that remained was to get out with as fewer casualties as possible. But it was getting more and more difficult, the enemy was learning quickly and had already destroyed the Marines' fire support and were busy engaging the massive walking tanks with the majority of their fire power, but marines were still falling and most light vehicle support had been eliminated and they desperately needed a way out of this battle from hell.
Enemy MBTs led the assault on the two bipedal tanks that had scored well over fifty tank kills each, shells bounced off their armour and any that got through did cause damage but the outer skin was repaired by the nano/synthetic paste that mimicked blood. The walking machines continued to pour machine gun fire into the enemy troops, firing its pressurised water laser at troops and tanks and also fired off their remaining AT missiles in a last ditch effort to stave off the enemy tank formations. But soon the tide was turning, the bipedal tanks were vulnerable to the intelligent commanders organising the Fighter4u attack. One of the tanks fell to the floor when an effective concentration mix of lucky and accurate shell fire tore the right leg right off one of the tanks and it collapsed to the floor, twitched for several seconds before exploding into a massive fireball. The other bipedal tank was knocked to the floor through intelligent firing, the huge tail of the tank require to keep the thing stable was removed after several shell destroyed the 'ball and socket' joint it sat in. The incredibly advanced gyroscopes inside the bipedal monster keep it standing and fighting for about half a minute after the removal of the tail but eventually the tank fell to the floor and exploded in similar fashion to its sister. Now the Marines just had their own weapons and their fists to fight the enemy. Light vehicles, heavy support and fire support had all been removed from their list of aces and now the enemy could steamroller over the Marines. They just had to reorganise but the Marines were mere minutes away from evacuation and as the massive bipedal tanks fell to the might of the enemy's tanks several more platoons retreated south towards the coast so as to shorten the trip for the helicopters inbound for picking up the survivors.
The clatter of gunfire was all that could be heard as the Fighter4u forces moved in for the kill, the tanks pounded the heavy positions of Marines who duly fell back to safer ground. The Stevidian frontline was collapsing and the Royal Marines were in serious danger of being overrun however the southern fence and the centre of the compound were still held by the Marines and heavy machine gun nest had been deployed to stave off the enemy foot soldiers. Fighter4u troops disembarked from their APCs to confront their fortified foe and could sense victory was near, they deployed grenade launchers and successfully drove Marines out of their hiding places but the machine gun nests held firm- literally the last line of defence before they would be defeated unless of course the Fleet Air Arm from the Lustria LCPs arrived in time to pick them up. As it was the helicopters were ten minutes late, but air support for the Marines was growing steadily. A three plane formation of Scorpion multi-role fighters swooped in low and dropped their freefall heavy bomb payload on the advancing Fighter4u troops and armour. The each explosion was apocalyptically big and there were at least fifteen bombs dropped, the ground shook violently as if an earthquake was in motion and plumes of jet black smoke rose from the smouldering remains of several armoured units, enemy corpses were charred and had been thrown in all directions after the devastating air strike. The Scorpions continued their assault on the advancing troops formations as they swooped in low and strafed the ground with machine gun fire before quickly disengaging, neither side had control of the air over the HQ camp and Fighter4u had increased air strikes on the Marines too but both sides couldn't commit too many aircraft to the fight since the two navies were beginning to clash and so most available aircraft had to be sent to defend (or attack) the fleets. But the clatter of gunfire continued but to the surprise of the soldiers on both sides it was being drowned out by a heavy thudding sound, suddenly almost out of nowhere six XF-23 Nightwalkers tore across the sky and spread out on the horizon seeking out enemy aircraft, it was a combat air patrol and they were escorting some late and desperately needed transport helicopters. The Chinooks had arrived with AH-64 support and began to move in on the desperate Marines, the five AH-64s flew in first and let loose a fire storm of hellfire missiles and anti-tank missiles. The Apaches caused very few kills on the enemy ground forces but the attack forced them to dive for cover and weather out the fire storm, the machine cut down any soldiers unfortunate enough to get themselves caught in the open. Once their ammunition was spent they fled the scene and allowed the Chinooks to close in and do their job with the air protection from the Nightwalkers. The Chinooks were outfitted with a single rear side hatch mounted 105mm cannon, literally an artillery piece stuck on the back of a Chinook, and four Chinooks had made the journey to pick up the Marines. They began to circle the terrorist HQ compound and used their giant guns to pound the enemy positions into submission before even attempting to land, once the enemy had been suppressed enough they began the difficult mission of getting their men out of the combat zone.
The Fighter4u army sent in to kill the Marines was putting up a stubborn fight and continued to fire at the machine gun nests and foxholes while the Chinooks pounded away and as such, landing was very difficult and made even worse by the lack of space to actually land in. One Chinook went in at a time while the other four continued to circle the compound and fire away with mounted artillery guns, the Marines waiting to get on board piled in until the giant thudding machine could take no more and disengaged from the combat zone taking bullet fire as she left. One by one the Chinooks landed and took on Marines until only one Chinook remained, while taking an impressive amount of fire the Chinook took on the last surviving Marines and wounded- the last soldier to leave the field was the Major himself. The Fighter4u forces poured machine gun fire into the Chinook and successfully killed several soldiers inside the helicopter and damaged the aft rotor blades of the machine but it continued on without hindrance and was escorted away from the camp by the Nightwalkers. Fighter4u had won the battle in spectacular fashion and although they hadn't wiped out the Marines or even taken a single prisoner of war, they had forced an evacuation. The Royal Marines would not have seen this as a failure however for they cause more casualties on Fighter4u then they themselves had received but they had failed to capture the terrorist leader. They had failed in their primary objective but had succeed in obtaining several huge paper and computer files on the virus itself and also the locations of several other camps in the South of the country- but that minor victory was bitter in terms of the amount of life lost. Nearly three hundred Marines went into the attack and only a hundred eighteen returned alive and sixty of those were combat worthy. Every vehicle sent in to aid in the attack was lost, the tanks, the APCs Land Rovers, artillery and ammunition had all been lost. With the terrorist leader gone, they had to start from scratch.

Bloody Rose Camp
Fighter4u forces engaging the enemy fought hard. Soon both feared bipedal tanks were down. The enemy forces were quickly retreating to their last line of defense. Machine gun nests and foxholes. Fighter4u tanks forces were mobile and scattered into small groups. With infanty supposelly linking up with them to attack the enemy. But fighter4u forces were spreaded all over the battlefield. Command has broken down in the area. In some platoons. Privates were in command. And fighter4u units. On high alert for over a week,sealed off in their bases,without any words from their loves ones,as to weather they surive the plaugde. And now forced to fight a unknowed enemy. Were already weaken and demoralize. The enemy fire which until now. Had thunder on them with deadly fire. Had produced tanks of massive firepower and a had a huge will to surive. With etile troops slowed by the milta forces. It was a suprise fighter4u forces hadn't been routed yet.But with the enemy artillery postions wiped out. This battle could be finished.
But the enemy marines were fericous and never let up their firepower. With the battle almost over. The untested miltla forces quickly rushed the enemy postions. When the more experined elite troops heared the unmistakable sound of Apaches Choppers. They try to warn them. But could only dive quickly for cover as the screams of the dieing almost blocked the roar of the Hellfire missiles.
Soon enemy airsupport quickly arrived. Fighter4u U-16s which have been quickly dispatched from the western countryside has only now arrived. Due to their speed they could only drop a bomb or two into the enemy defensive lines and watch helpless below. Before the planes sped off again.
Enemy Chinooks had arrived and quickly started the enemy retreat. Fighter4u forces fired what they could. But the enemy forces retreated. They didn't what they were after,they didn't know what the camp was or who it belonged to. And they didn't know what their losses were beside the fact it was almost over a thousand dead or wounded. But they did know they had repel the attacked and could now go back home. Relief units arrived and medical copters began tranporting the most badly wounded to army hosptials.
~~~~~~~~~~~Ashlind~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The fighter4u city of Ashlind. The rebel leader. Ted Ginger (OOC:He needed a name hey? :P) walked down a darkly lited street in one of the many poor neighbours of fighter4u. He came to 567 Janeway and knocked on the door.
A voice said,"Come on in. We been waiting for you."
Ted was escorted by several large men with bulges under their arms to a darkly lited room. Their sat Helany. One of the fighter4u "etile" of the fighter4u of the fighter4u concuil. Which ruled fighter4u. He was knowed as the man who family supported the Royals in the 1st Rebel War and in the second rebel war,when the Royals were overthrowned and the butral command of fighter4u tookover. Retreated to swat23. Which was now effectly a part of fighter4u after the rebels tired to coup the newly borned government from swat23,in the F4U-Swat23 war of 1993. Helany was now in hiding. After the last failed attempt to coup the government.
"Ted, welcome to my little hideway. I understand that you need a lift out of the country? To where excatly?"
"Stevid"
"Of coruse. But where the vancine and plaudge?"
"Right here" Ted motion to his pocket.
"Perfect",reply Helany.
A single gunshot rang out and Ted was dead.
"Contact the Brotherhood of Sixth and tell them we will have a agent arriving in Stevid today. He will have the package. We will hold the Stevid government ramdom and use our leverage to have fighter4u destroyed!"
"What about the rest of the Bloody Rose?I have no need of them. Stevid and fighter4u forces will destroy them quickly I expect,after that battle."
To Fleet Flagship Communications Room
We will agree to a cease-fire as of now and co-operation later. We request a meeting with your commaders in the fighter4u captial. A helicopter for tranport can be arranged or you can fly one to the captial under escort by us and your own forces. We have much to discuss and we must hurry. The terriosts will strike again soon. We must combined our forces and stop this maddness now. Your planes will be allow to return to your carriers unharmed.
To Fighter4u Armed Forces
A cease-fire is now in effect. Let the enemy aircrafts go unharmed. Step down on operations. But be really for any enemy surpise attack. Get really to refuel and rearmed. We have suffer heavy losses. But have learned much.
To XXXXXXX
Stand down Tango forces. Stand down Delta forces. Stand down Zeta operations. Return to base all XXXXX forces.
Stevid International News - SIN
Today a ceasefire exists between Stevid and Fighter4u after just a day of conflict. This comes after an expeditionary force of naval units belong to the Royal Navy launched an airborne assault on a terrorist camp inside Fighter4u without their permission, the decision to launch the attack has been criticised by the opposition parties but they have praised the government's move to sign a ceasefire agreement. Soldiers belonging to Stevid's Rapid Reaction Strike Force (RRSF) of the 734th Royal Marines Regiment, 6th, 7th and 10 Battalions engaged enemy forces with artillery, air support and light vehicles. The enemy at the time of the assault was a terrorist training camp and also the headquarters for the Bloody Rose terrorist organisation responsible for releasing a plague in several different countries and inadvertantly spreading the virus to Stevid. The virus has since been contained and eradicated in Stevid but the Empire intended to exact revenge on those who caused the chaos.
The terrorist leader escaped the attack and over a hundred Royal Marines and all equipment used in the attack were destroyed by Fighter4u forces countering the attacking Stevidians. The whole operation was a failure but several other terrorist camps were located thanks to stolen information from the headquarters as well as valuable data gathered on the virus itself, but the terrorist leader himself and those in his company are still at large. Stevid is well known to have been responsible for the attack and so my be at risk from further attacks from the Bloody Rose group and so an increase in security in capital and around the country has been declared.
At the moment Admirals of both fleets, Stevidian and Fighter4u, are meeting on a Fighter4u vessel to discuss military tactics on removing the Bloody Rose organisation from Fighter4u's borders once and for all. The talks are currently being held in secret but we can premuse that the ceasefire will develop into a temporary alliance of military cooperation between the two nations so they can defeat the Bloody Rose operatives, but only time will tell whether or not this is true. In the meantime the Stevidian Government has apolagised for its brash action against Fighter4u and openly mourns the death of the soldiers, pilots and sailors killed or wounded in the conflict some are already dubbing "The One Day War".

Sorry it's a short post but RPing negoiations is something everyone hates because it goes on so long. Feel free to move the virus into the country.

24-04-2008, 23:07
Onborad the Cruiser P.R.S.S.F Thunderhead. The Admiral of Air Carrier P.R.S.S.F Starlight got up from the table where talks were being held with the Admiral of the Stevid fleet that lasted for almost seven hours. The discussion involed the several knowed terriosts camps that Stevid marines found the location to in the B.R HQ. Both sides agree to assemble aircraft,marines,helicopters, and special ops teams to attack the various camps at the same time at next dawn. With fighter4u providing most of the infanty and heavy armor for the fight. Both sides already had their forces really to go. And many units were already in postion to hit the yet unware terriosts camps.
The battle would be a joint operation by both Stevid and Fighter4u.
Also senstive(read secret) important info was pasted onto the nation of Stevid. About a special military SWAT team that tracked the rebel leader to a house in Ashlind. Where they found the body of Ted Ginger,alota blood and little else. The whole house was clean of anything and everything. But interviews with locals in the area at dusk. Reports several vans being moved toward the docks of Ashlind. Which in itself was not a uncommon thing in this seedy area. But the vans were driven and guarded by tough looking men who seen to be highly trained. And carrying a briefcase that was covered in blood.
Fighter4u police quickly converse on the docks. And applying a huge amount of pressure and threats from the local mob bosses. Found out vans came last night and were loaded into a supertanker. That supertanker then departed toward Stevid.
Fighter4u and Stevid forces quickly sented hundreds of planes and ships to search for the supertanker. Recons planes found her two hundred and fifty miles outside of fighter4u water,going full steam. Military ships quickly were dispatch and ordered her to stop all engines and prepare to be boraded. They then processed to do so. The crew and it captain were placed under arrest and the whole ship was searched. But noting was found. No vans,no virus, no vanciee. Noting. But due to illgeal small arm weapons found on board to protect them from pirates. They were taken back to fighter4u for questioning and the ship was examined more closely.
They found noting but a werid rubber mark on the deck of the ship suggesting high heat was applyed here. When questioned,the captain refuse to comment. And as he was part of a nation fighter4u had no ties with. He was untouchable. But several sailers were from F4U and they could be made to talk.
~~Mainwhile in a single engine plane in the skies near Stevid~~
Kult Kachan held onto a briefcase tighly. He had no idea what was in it and could only guess why it was covered in dry blood. But he knew that it had to be delivered to a contact within the fasict nation of Stevid. The flight had taken over sixteen hours as the rocket plane had sped through the outer amtrosphere of the earth and quickly arrived near Stevid airspace. Their they came back down into the sky and onto a desert island. Kult got out and hopped onto a fishing boat that was being sailed by a eldery fishermen who family were now bound and tied up with guns pointing at their head in a remote Stevid fishing village. The fisherman who usually came this way to fish shark. Quickly started back to Stevid. Hoping his family was still alive.
The rocket plane on the other hand quickly sped to a unknowed location where it would be destroy and it parts melted down to it basic material and then reuse for new products. Such destroying any trace of it.
Several hours later
The fishing vessel landed in a small port in the eastern section of the country. Which was the opposite direction from fighter4u. The boat was tied up and it cargo of sarks were carry to the fisherman house. Where it was empty of vistors due to his "sick" wife. When they entered. He was silently killed and buryed in the basement with the rest of his family. The briefcase was taken out of one of the sharks,where it was hiden, and the men lefted the house during the night as it burned due to the gaslione stove exploding and a lot of extra oil. But they made sure the money printing equinment would surive the flames for the poilce to find. Stevid was bound to have it fair share of crime like any other country.

As you may well already know. At 2:00 military time last night. Our nation was attacked by the nation of Stevid. Their attack was repel with huge losses to the attackers. And after a fecriusc seabattle. The hostile fleet contacted us to tell us their reason for the attack. Which happened to be terriosts knowed as the Bloody Rose. Another group of "rebels'
that unleash a massive plaugde in the Stevid nation. Which eventally spreaded to our southern province and caused the deaths of hundreds of millions. After a brief battle,Fighter4u forces with the assiatance of Stevid,destroy the terriosts centeral of operations. And our now together hunting down the remaining terriosts. Such actions show why these bandits are unfit to remain alive and we proimse things will change once for all. In the way these terriosts are allow to remain free to spread their hatred and lies.
To control the virus spread. We will keep the south sealed off from fighter4u and fighter4u itself shall remain sealed from the rest of the world. Any large public gathering will be quickly stoped by fighter4u civil guard. That is all. Safe productive and remember:Are you alright!You are????I FIX THAT!!!!!
S.S. Venture- Super tanker in Fighter4u waters
The super tanker had been tracked for several hours by the F4U Air Force as the guided the surface vessels to the position of the tanker and hours later she was being shadowed by two frigates and four minesweepers of the Royal Navy. The frigates had launched their helicopters loaded with Royal Marines towards the tanker and a few warning shots from the 50 cal machine gun was enough to convince the captain to come to a stop. Minutes later the Marines were aboard the tanker and less than half an hour later the F4U navy had joined the flotilla and boarded the tanker with their own marines.
The search was concise but professional and a quick glance at the navigational computer showed the tanker had been steaming towards Stevid. A search of the tanker showed nothing, no sign that the rebellion in BR of Fighter4u had been on the tanker and likewise there was no evidence of the virus, a vaccine or the vans that had arrived the night before. In all likelihood the vans would have been ditched in the sea and although the tanker wasn’t too far from F4U and the sea not all that deep, it was pointless to search for vans that would have little or no evidence on them at all and that was assuming the vans could be found at all in the great expanse of the untamed sea. All possible means of retrieving the vans were abandoned and every effort was made to interrogate the crew and its captain.
The Fighter4u government were in charge of the interrogations and a naval helicopter transported the crew back to the mainland, however MI6 were present at the interrogations and even did some of the questioning themselves. Military Intelligence Six was the secret service of Empire that dealt with international affairs, they saw the F4U boys as ’too sensible’ with their questioning . Always by the book, always following the rules. It was an honourable approach to it, one that the Holy Empire admired but sometimes additional interrogation methods have to be used to get the answers. When the Fighter4u detectives and agents couldn’t get anything out of the Captain they turned him over to MI6.
From the moment the Captain stepped into the room he was treated harshly, shoved into his chair, roughly tied up with dry and coarse rope and had cigarette smoke blown into his face whenever the moment presented itself. This was before the questioning had even begun and it was apparent that it was going to be a lot worse for the good Captain. The MI6 officer had two other Stevidians with him but that was just for security, the agent would do all the questioning. The Stevidian MI6 disliked the American portrayed stereotype of secret agents wearing all black, sunglasses and an ear piece. In fact it made it more obvious that they were members of the secret service; this particular MI6 agent was wearing a smart/casual shirt and jeans and he looked like your average good looking tourist on his way to a nightclub- exactly what being a secret agent was all about, the ability to blend in with the people around you. The man cleared his throat and began questioning the Captain.
“You are the captain of the S.S. Venture?”
The Captain nodded but said nothing obviously his mental strength had increased since the F4U interrogation.
“And you were on course for the Holy Empire of Stevid, yes?” The agent asked to which, again, the Captain merely nodded. These were all the same questions he had been asked before.
“What were to carrying to Stevid, sir?
No reply, no nod, not even a flinch or flicker of the eye from the Captain.
“I’ll ask you again… Captain… what were you carrying?”
The Captain tilted his head as if about to answer but the agent spoke again reaffirming his dominance and his question. “We not a lot more than you think we know. We know that the ship cargo manifest is no only wrong but it is also missing some items. Bear that in mind and think about your answer.”
The captain said nothing but his smiled softly as if toying with the agent. It was a big mistake as the agent, as quick as lightning, nodded to the security man who promptly smashed the butt of a gun into the side of the captain’s head. Although he was tied to the chair and weighed a ton he was still flown across the room by the force of the impact. The guards untied him, and placed him back on the chair with blood pouring out of his temple. The captain was barely conscious and his head rocked back and forth with the motion.
“I won’t ask you again good sir. What were you carrying and were is it now?”
The captain moaned in pain as his head flopped back.
“Ah! The fat man can make noises but I’m afraid I need a little more than childish babble good sir…” The agent mocked but again the captain just moaned.
A savage punch to the stomach sucked the air out of him and suddenly the pain left him as he struggled for breath.
“Steady on old boy you’ll hyperventilate. Now answer my question, what were you carrying?”
The captain was awake, barely but awake. He coughed again as he caught his breath and wiped the blood from his forehead.
“I don’t properly know, I was bribed by the mob. You know how it is, we’ve all got families to support!”
[i]“Actually I wouldn’t know because I have a highly paid job, an excellent pension and amazing job satisfaction. My family couldn’t be happier. The mob is a mob for a reason just like trafficking drugs carries a prison sentence, its illegal! Dabble with the illegal elements of society you may run into a few figures like me in the future. Besides, you said you didn’t properly know which means you have suspicions.”
“It’s not may place.” The Captain groaned but his groans were replaced with a yelp of pain as the agent punched him in the jaw.
“You, sir, are in no position decide whether or not it is your place to say something to me, I decide and so you must always answer my questions!”
“You broke my jaw you bastard!”
The MI6 agent lost his cool and grabbed the Captain by the neckline of his shirt and shoved him against the wall.
“I’ll break your fucking spine into several pieces and show it to you if it will get any answers out of you my fat friend!” The agent growled while nose to nose with the Captain. The agent continued to knee the Captain between the legs then nodded to the guards who kicked the man several times before dragging him to the chair. He was bleeding in several places, his ribs were bruised and he was struggling for breath.
“Now captain!” The agent started. “I enjoyed kicking the living shit out of someone so long as they provide me with answers. If you don’t give me the whole story I’ll kill you. If I think you’re bending the truth I’ll kill you; you forget anything or accidentally remember it after I’ve asked several more questions I’ll kill you. You, captain, have got your work cut out for you when it comes to staying alive. Anything you say could kill you.”
The captain smiled, he’d seen it in films. An enemy agent wanted info that only he (and several others) had. If he was killed they’d never get the information.
“You stupid dick! For an intelligence agent you’re pretty foolish!” The captain started, his primitive plan in action that he was sure would work. “If you kill me you’ll never get the information!”
The agent smiled to the captain who surprised him and the agent quickly replied.
“Somebody will talk, they always do.” the agent said calmly as he drew out his semi-automatic pistol.
Terror spread across the Captain’s face, he didn’t think the plan would back fire and he certainly didn’t the agent was this crazy.
“Oh shit no!” the Captain cried, and in a second and flash of light followed by an extremely loud bang rang out made worse by the echo.
The captain slumped to the floor crying, he clutched his left knee and blood poured out of the bullet wound. A splat pf blood and a hole was on the wall behind the captain indicating the bullet had shot straight through the knee causing massive trauma to the ligaments, muscle and the complete devastation of the knee joint.
“Oh dear… I missed.” the agent said coldly and very sarcastically above the wails of the Captain.
At that moment two detectives belonging to Fighter4u dashed into the room see the whimpering Captain, blood everywhere and the agent holding the pistol. They turned pail immediately and quickly apologised to the agent knowing full well that he could easily turn the gun on them too. The Captain looked desperately in the door’s direction for help but none came and the agent wasn’t finished yet. Another shot rang out as a bullet flew into the Captain’s shoulder followed by more squeals of pain.
“Okay, okay! I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you!”
“Good! You see that wasn’t that difficult now was it? So go on, tell me what you know.”
“We were carrying a man belonging to some rebel faction or something. He had a briefcase, like the ones you see on those films that act like a nuclear trigger, but this one wasn’t a trigger and it was covered in blood. I dunno what was inside it but it seemed very important.”
“Were is it now?” The agent quizzed.
“Probably Stevid. The rubber mark is were this supersonic jet took off, it’s an atmospheric craft it should already be in Stevid right now and the occupants already making their way to their target.”
“Target?”
“The target city, the city where the virus will be deployed!”
The agent’s eyes widened with horror but he kept his cool. Somehow he had to find out the possible targets a desperate terrorist would chose to maximise human loss of life in Stevid. That narrowed it down to four cities in the Holy Empire, the four fortress cities of Stevid Capita, Milton, Northampton and Sunderland. Stevid Capita was out of a question, foreigner controls were very high and Sunderland wasn’t the best place for an attack because the population was small for a city. That narrowed it down to Milton or Northampton and the most logical choice of the two was Milton. The best university in the country, the biggest of the two cities and the most populated. Milton had a richer history and the central offices of several high street banks were located in the financial district of Milton- it was the perfect choice/
“Boys,” The agent said turning to the other two MI6 officers in the room with him. “Get Central on the horn and tell them everything. We’ve got photos and historical documents on this bloke and its high time we stopped him once and for all… and you…” He said scowling at the Captain. “Supporters of terrorism are as bad as those who dabble and enjoy in it.”
The gun clicked and another round was fired directly into the Captain’s head who collapsed out of his chair and slumped into an undignified position on the floor. The MI6 agent sneered and called in to the F4U officers and asked them to remove the corpse.
The Fighter4u detectives would still have to interview other members of the crew to find out more about the cell, the virus and the mob that transported the rebel across the country to the tanker. Stevid was finished with questioning, they had all they needed and the Central Office of MI6 got straight to work on finding the rebel with the virus. The general public was not informed and leaks were forbidden, any info leaked would cost a man, or women, their jobs and maybe their lives.

Of course, OOC reasons have dogged it a bit. Besides, you decided to bail out.
