OOC: You can assist Karnigstan by pushing into Karnigstan through Vargeist borders and connecting the tiny mountainous nation to the outside world, drop troops via aircraft into Karnigstan itself, or help Vargeist keep its province. Your choice.

The tiny emirate of Karnigstan, conquered fifty years ago by the the Vargeist Empire is attempting fighting, for the third time, for its freedom. Using Vargeist equipment and a fanatical militarist citizenry, this tiny nation hopes to get their freedom once and for all.

Karnigstan Monthly
Yet again, Comrades, the brave generals Vorka, Shambles and Conrade are attempting to gain our freedom! Lord-General Vorka has entered a plea to the world while General Shambles defends our nation with his brave men. General Conrade is attempting to conquer the Vargeist strip of land that separates us from the world! Any money that can be donated to the cause is welcome, citizens of Karnigstan, for freedom is once again within our grasp!

General Conrade was not amused. The strip was not a simple scrap of land, it was a fortress line. The new war was only a day old, and the General already knew what it would take to crush the fortresses. They were outnumbered, out gunned, and in desperate need of real intervention. The artillery could not be pulled into range beyond the super-heavy guns due to the air superiority of their opponent, and it was the crux of their strategy. Without artillery fire, they couldn't cover their men to launch a proper assault.

"Lord-General Vorka, give me support now, or we lose this again. And I don't particularly feel like putting my head in a noose." General Conrade shouted into the field radio, over the roar of the enemy artillery fire. No answer. According to intelligence, the forces of General Shambles had not given an inch, holding mountain passes until the end, while a bare mile of progress had been made on this front, and only at the loss of nearly a thousand men. Each death hurt for a force of seventy thousand. At this rate, in the estimations of the commanders, they could only fight for twenty more days at the maximum before having to go on the defensive.


From the New State of Karnigstan's War Office

To the rulers of your great nation,

We of Karnigstan are suffering under the imperial rule of the Vargeist Empire, and our tiny mountain nation has repeatedly failed to gain independence on our own, so we request that you help us. We need assistance in pushing our borders into a neighboring country so that we are not surrounded by the Vargeist Empire, and to repulse their soldiers from our borders so that we may defend ourselves in the future more effectively. Please, if any nation is willing to charitably use their army in our defense, save us from imperial rule. Our nation is small, and poor, yet we will try our best to repay you in some way for this great deed.

Sincerely,
General Vorka
