Axis Novan navy deploys from Bretton

Bretton.

A snowy, arctic wasteland, in the far north of Haven, and also one of Axis Novan's best and longest lasting allies.

Amongst many collaborations between the two nations have been the construction of extremely large scale bunkers in one of Bretton's harbours... and no sign whatsoever of what's within them. The bunker complexes have expanded over time, new ones being built, but their outer hatches have never opened, not even for one second... until now.

The massive doors begin to slowly grind open, one after another, massive plates of ice detaching and falling into the water below. An ongoing blizzard shrouds the entire area in snow, hiding anything going on from prying eyes... as is intended.

As the doors grind to a halt, the prows of ships appear: large ships. It appears Axis Nova has been developing some new (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=11100210&postcount=42) weapons (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showpost.php?p=13618376&postcount=62) quietly...

As icebreakers chug out to begin breaking a passage to the open sea, the eight I-Type class battleships and numerous Enigma class missile cruisers begin queuing up; there really isn't room for all of them to deploy at once, and thus each leaves it's heavily reinforced bunker in turn as enough space is cleared in the harbor for it, and then heads for the open sea.

As soon as each vessel reaches open water, it engages it's ramjet systems and powers away, headed out of the region for parts unknown. It's not expected that their deployment will be completely unnoticed-- but with the bad weather preventing satellite scans over their base for the moment, it's hoped that identifying the nation of their origin will be significantly delayed.

Is this an open thread?
and if so what are the background rules?

OOC: This is setup for something else, since I don't like to have my military stuff randomly appear out of nowhere.
