The Empire of Shima teikoku yokai had never enter the world of International affairs, tending to be Feudal in it's ways, backwards, it was stuck in the Warring States Era since the 1500s with no contact from the outside world. The Island nation was long unknown, Ancient and always in a state of total War between rival warlords.

and also because it was ruled by a race of Neko-Yokai (Cat Demons) which were decent from Neko-Yokai from Japan in the 1400s.

but Humans did live here, The Empress Akihino (http://infolab.stanford.edu/~qluo/pict/trip/beijing/empress-dress-zoomin-2.jpg) was human and she was soon thinking of opening her nation up to the world. The need for trade was a idea by the Empress for the possible end to this long era of war.

But she did not know of what happened in the hundreds of years of no contact with the Outside world.

Official Response of the Fascist Federation of the Grand World Order

What the hell is this? Is this another country filled with impurities in the Human Genome? The contamination of Man is a crime against Nature, and the Order will refuse to acknowledge the "Empire" as a legitimate nation. Further support of the contamination of Humankind will result in any actions necessary to defend the Species.

With love, the Grand World Order Office of Foreign Affairs. Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Fuhrer.

Near The Village of Shinnabu, Shima teikoku yokai

a battle was going on between two Daimyo, as it had always been for the last 600 years. On each side were over 20,000 ashigaru (Soldiers) and 400 Samurai. This was common in Shima teikoku yokai as it had been over 600 years of no peace. The Daimyo of the land were always fighting one another, with little the Imperial Rulers of The Empire could do about it.

The Battle was bloody was sword clashed, arrows few. Spears flashed and the yells of the dying echoed through the field of battle.

F-15Es Observing Battle

"Echo 2, is that a battle going on down there?"

"It appears to be, they are using sword and shields, and arrows. Hah, lets scare them a bit, lets go in low and fast!"

The two F-15Es hit there after burner and flew low over the battle screaming over the heads of the warriors.

OOC: this is a backwards nation....
anyways, welcome

Space

A Reconnaissance Satellite had caught the scene of the battle, and it was soon realized in the Spire that the Empire was no more than a bunch of mutations with swords. Being asses, the men called forth a show of force...

Nearing Shima Teikoku Yokai

A small group of helicopters was inbound, mainly to scare the hell out of the Empire, partially to demand the Head of State to accept an annexation document. There was a total of 10 CH-46 Chinooks and two Hippo-class Heavy Lift helicopters. The Chinooks were filled with GWO Marines and Federal Guardsmen, while the Hippos had RSAV Riot-Suppression vehicles belonging to the Federal Guard. Each helicopter had crates of supplies on cables on the outside of the aircraft. The helicopters made a pass over the battle, and for fun, the men manning the machine guns on board fired a couple of shots into the air, aiming away from the belligerents. The helicopters were on a course for the capital.

F-15Es, Echo Flight

"We have GWO Helicopters on Radar, what should we do?" Asked one pilot. "Get them out of there, they have on right give them a warning and then if they don't respond shoot them down!"

The two F-15s came up behind the GWO helicopters and broadcast "Leave this airspace immediatly, or we will be forced to open fire"

"Oh bugger, we've got F-15s. They want us to leave," announced one of the pilots over the radio network. The group responded, stating that they were on their way out. The group performed a bank and headed for the border, leaving the airspace. Of course, a quick click of the Emergency Caller notified the GWO that there had been an interdiction. From the same province the helicopters came from, 15 F-22s were on their way already as the helicopters were leaving the airspace.

A few minutes later

The F-22s were sneaking up on the only aircraft in the area, which were quickly identified as F-15s, complying with a report later given by the helicopters. The F-22s were just over 60 kilometers away, close enough to hit the planes with their MBDAs and AMRAAMs. 20 missiles were launched at short intervals, with the MBDAs flying at over Mach 4. A message was sent before the missiles could be detected (Which would happen a second or so later) stating, "Do not meddle in our affairs, child."

(OOC- Well thank you very much!))

The F-15s are shot down.

((OOC: No prob, lul))

"Well, that is that. Tell the helicopters they're clear for re-entry. We'll be flying under the RADAR shield to make sure nothing is coming back," stated the Major leading the air group. The helicopters came back and began their journey towards the capital city to force the leader to accept annexation...

OoC: Are you really gonna annex a new player like that ... I mean, no offense but I really don't like that.

OOC: Same here

OoC: Honestly, when one is a new nation, the etiquette is to ask the nation if they want to go to war, and if they understand that the possibility that they can be annexed and conquered. I mean I would do that - unless the person is acting like an ass and deserves it.

OOC: Also, I was going to reply to the plane flying over head till GWO ruined it.

OOC- Just to clairfy I had no intention of annexing you, but i couldnt think of any other response when GWO truned up with 15 F-22s

OoC: Is all of your nation in the 15th century or do your leaders have access to telephone/email/internet?

((OOC: I wasn't intending to keep an annexation, just a sort of temporary thing disrupted later.))

OoC: I wouldn't think that it matters. At least ask for permission. For new nations, they have 5 million people when I bet that your active army alone is of the same size. And they don't have it all organized. I mean, I ... I don't want to see people leave because of this incident. Especially when this game can really be fun. And yes, New Brittonia is back.

OoC: Is all of your nation in the 15th century or do your leaders have access to telephone/email/internet?

OOC: more still in the 15th century style. It had never had contact with the outside world for over 600 years

((OOC: I was figuring that the GWO temporary annexation could bring them to modern times before suddenly the GWO has to withdraw.))

OoC: I hear you, but the guy already said no. I mean, this is a game so all we have to do is to ignore this entire thing.

~Official Communique~
~Office of the President~

To: All
From: President Ingram Hasley, the Democratic Republic of Cazatania

The government of Cazatania warns any nation that attempts to invade or annex the sovereign nation of Shima Teikoku Yokai that we will fight on the side of this innocent nation. We will use full force to ensure this nation continues to stay free. All those that support us in this goal know that you are not alone and that we have prepared three Army Corps in preparation.

And to the nation of the Grand World Order, know that we are not afraid to fight you on your home turf unless you submit an official apology to Shima Teikoku Yokai for your previous statements. We will not tolerate actions like these. If any hostile action is taken against this state you may wake up with Cazatanian marines in your bedroom in the next week. You have been warned.

OoC: Cazelia, i think that this might have been a goof so lets settle this OiC for now, okay? And remember me?

OOC: NB, you have a Telegram from me

To: Cazelia
From: The Grand World Order Office of Foreign Affairs

Didn't you learn enough from the last time you attempted to invade our nation?

The Order will not give an apology, and would like to tell the Cazelians that should a single Marine be sighted in the Order, we will be dragging the children of your leaders around the cities with a HUMVEE, just as Ajax did to Hector.

Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Fuhrer.

[OOC: Hat is back? Or am I mistaken?]

OoC: Got it, talk to me on Yahoo please it works a lot better on my comp.

Edit: Do we always think every new person is Hataria or am I severely mistaken?

[OOC: Hat is back? Or am I mistaken?]

((OOC: As soon as he said "GWO ruined it" I thought that too. The anime crap and neko-dominated nation confirms this, and as soon as I saw the word "Neko" I began to have my thoughts.))

((OOC: If this is Hataria I'll be considering retconning my declaration of support.))

[OOC: Lol, metagaming.

Also.... wtf? this whole thread gets one.]

OOC: Excuse my ignorance but who is Hataria?

OOC: Excuse my ignorance but who is Hataria?

((OOC: One of the worst, most determined RPers ever to brace NS. Every blue moon or so he shows up with a new nation to try and hide his bad name, but we always nail him because he has several major characteristics (You'll see if you ever RP with him) and tells a couple of people. I have the honor of destroying his most recent successful nation, the Ryou Black Islands.

His spelling is atrocious, he always screams "YOUR ON THE PERMENT IGNORR LSTI" when he loses, and has a nasty habit of wanking and ridiculous military rituals. The thing that got him famous was probably his numberwanking, as he claimed to have a several-thousand ship navy after he had just been thoroughly glassed in one of the largest combined nuclear attacks in the history of NS.))

Official Statement of the Commonwealth of New Brittonia

The Commonwealth of New Brittonia welcomes the Empire of Shima Teikoku Yokai to the world. We understand that entering the world is hard, it is tough – even more so for a nation whose technological levels are around the sixteenth century. We understand that – in a world where many nations are intolerant of those who are non-human – your entire people's basic existence is being threatened. We also understand that coming out of isolationism is tough. This is why we wish to assist you.
We wish for our Prime Minister Jacob Croutch – who has never been on official business overseas before – to meet with your Empress Akihino. Hopefully, we can work out some sort of development and international assistance deal if you allow this meting to go on. It will benefit both of our nations in many ways.

May God save the Queen.

Official Announcement of the United States of Allanea

What the hell is this?

Is this another country filled with Nazi fail? This National-Socialism is a crime against Liberty, and the United States will refuse to acknowledge the “Order” as a legitimate nation. Further continuing in this vein of fascist fail and fursecution will result in the destruction of any and all GWO forces that will dare to assault this new nation.

An aircraft carrier battlegroup is on its way to protect Shima, as are three escort and two strike cruiser squadrons. Furthermore, the Cult of Asukhon the Eightfold Victor will be mustering a volunteer force of five thousand men and women to assist with the counterinvasion of GWO.

Remember Dresden! Remember Stalingrad! Remember Berlin!

That is all.

May God continue to bless Allanea.

To: Allanea
From: The Grand World Order Office of Foreign Affairs

Nobody cares about Liberty, your point is lul. kkthxbai. Humankind is far more important, and as such, so is the advancement of Man, which is impossible to secure when your people are busy with petty squabbling and unstable democracies.

By the way, our country isn't actually Socialist, despite a tiny bit of it. It's actually more of a hypercapitalist state.

Official Allanean Response:

Now if only we cared about the subtle differences between National-Socialism and Fascism... wait, we don't. Our warships are on the way.

P.S. Allanea is not a democracy.

To: Allanea
From: The Grand World Order Office of Foreign Affairs

If Allanea is not a democracy, why do they claim they "Fight for Liberty!1111!1!" when they're "just as bad" in terms of freedom as we are?

Now, if only we cared about the differences between "Liberty Fighters" and disgusting Leftist Democracies.

Official Allanean Response:

The United States is a Federal Republic, and democracy is tightly bound with the limits of the Constitution (http://z12.invisionfree.com/Allanea/index.php?showtopic=49).

Our battleships will be in place within 24 hours.

To: Allanea
From: The Grand World Order Office of Foreign Affairs

Now, if only we cared about the minute differentials of a Democracy and a Republic. Oh, we don't. They're still governments in which the people elect people into the government.

OOC: O lawd. If only RL diplomatic exchanges were like this.

tag 4 lulz. Allanea, if you want help, just TG me then.

Prime Minister of the Commonwealth of New Brittonia
Jacob Crouch (http://www.moonbattery.com/archives/Luke_Ravenstahl.jpg)

His Excellency, Brigadier General (Retired), Governor-General of the Commonwealth of New Brittonia
Victor Cecil (http://schema-root.org/region/americas/north_america/usa/government/branches/executive/departments/defense/personnel/generals/ray_odierno/ray_odierno.jpg)


From Her Imperial majesty, Empress Akihino.

We accept your coming to our Island empire that we, the Yokai, live in. We await your envoy.

Prime Minister Crouch was sitting down in a V-22 Osprey – the vehicle that can take off as a helicopter and fly as an airplane – that was passing over lush green grass and other forest. He was rather alone. Because of energy constraints, he only had one aide and one translator – an expert in Eastern Asiatic languages. The press was limited. There was only one reporter: an NBBC photographer who was supposed to file pool reports quite often. There was a squad of Royal New Brittonia Commandos inside armed each with FAMAS rifles. The ground situation was testy – intelligence said – and as a result no one wanted to take any chances.

The plane flew rather low. Many of the populace could see the lettering and the roundel (similar to the RAAF's one but replace the silhouetted kangaroo with a red silhouette of a boot kicking a butt, as in New Brittonia's flag).

“How long do we got?”, Prime Minister Crouch asked the pilot, “We seem to have already entered what would be their airspace.”

“About fifteen minutes. We just need a place to land first.”

“How long do we got?”, Prime Minister Crouch asked the pilot, “We seem to have already entered what would be their airspace.”

“About fifteen minutes. We just need a place to land first.”

Never seeing a V-22 Osprey, or any type of aircraft before, The people were scared of it. many Villagers ran in terror, a few Farmers were grabbing bows and arrows and were firing at it, trying to kill what they thought was a Bird Yokai. In Short, it was panic.

Yokotamako, The Capital was alight with news of the odd machine heading for it. 10,000 Samurai were to guide it to a open area near The Imperial City and to see what the hell it was.

Seeing the disturbance caused by this lone vehicle, the pilot spoke the radio, which was linked to loudspeakers on the sides of the plane. He announced,
"This is an aircraft bearing the representatives of the Commonwealth of New Brittonia We come in peace."

The language expert then repeated that praise in several other languages, hoping that the populace would be speaking at least one of these languages.

Seeing several thousand armed samurai all attempting to act as a sort of air traffic control for the airplane, the V-22 began to descend even lower, closer to the ground.

The Samurai watched as the "Bird Demon" Talked and was coming down to the ground. the odd object was talking in other, strange languages. But then it started saying words intwo Languages the yokai knew.

Chinese and Japanese.

The Samurai waited for the thing to land and find out what it really was

The plane landed. Its rotors were up, like a helicopter's and the grass was blowing everywhere when it landed. The blades slowed down until reaching a complete stop.

The back hatch opened. The thirteen commandos began to come out. One of them - a man of a higher rank - then opened the side door. A young man in a suit, Prime Minister Crouch, hopped out and saluted the commando.

The aides - the translator and the administrative assistant - then came out.

All of the soldiers stood at attention to the prime minister. He saluted them and walked to one of the samurai. His assistants and the press photographer followed. This entire event was being photographed for posterity.

Smiling, Jacob Crouch bowed, and then said to a samurai, with the woman translating every word,
"Good afternoon. I am Jacob Crouch, leader of the nation of New Brittonia. I am supposed to meet with your empress. May that be arranged?"

Many Samurai started leaving, save for a group that was to be the escort for Crouch. "Great, another wizard in his Flying Machine" one samurai said.

The escort of ten Samurai soon surrounded Mr Crouch, as a Rickshaw came up to take him to The Empress her self.

The Commandos stood aside the samurai. They marched, keeping themselves at attention. Prime Minister Crouch sat on the rickshaw. The assistants walked behind him. They checked their satellite Blackberries - the New Brittonian government paid good money for these devices - while following the people, sending out e-mails and test messages to the press, staff, and friends.

Meanwhile, Jacob reclined and contemplated whether it would be okay to smoke.

Ark Angel-class carrier, TSS Resonance, one-hundred fifty miles from Shima Island

The soft glow from the screen bathed the RADAR operator's face in a green light. He'd had been sitting in front of this screen for what felt like several hours, dozing in and out of consciousness. He was suddenly jolted to alertness by a 'beep' emanating from the screen.

"Sir, new contact. Bearing two-five-seven at two-hundred knots."

The NCO rolled on his swivel chair towards the radarman and panned his eyes over the screen.

"Looks like a chopper." he said, watching the small blip crawl towards the edge.

"Think they're hostile, sir?" The radarman replied, staring blankly at the sweep as it highlighted the helicopter a second time.

The NCO watched the blip as it disappeared from the scope and turned to the radarman.

"Maybe. Send a UAV to intercept."

The radarman silently acknowledged his superior's order and called the UAV operator on the intercom.

Several minutes later, a Global Hawk launched from the carrier deck, rapidly gaining altitude. Reaching a height of 40,000 feet, it cruised toward the intercept point at around 400 mph, a small jet of flame coming from it's tail.

Empire Airspace

The MH-60L DAP was running silent as it orbited the scene at the nations capital, the Wolf Legion Commando's inside were just observing as they had no where to go and the sight unfolding before them was one of utter Marvel. "Hey Jimmy, drop the altitude I want a better picture" One of the commandos called to the pilot, who lowered the altitude, brining the MH-60 out of the clouds.

OoC: The nation is in the 14th century tech, but whatever.

OOC: Doesn't mean that they can't own the air around their nation, whether they realize it or not. =P

OoC: I mean technically maybe, but I am strongly against NS doucherism.

OOC: Think TWH should have RP'ed his heli getting to the island first? /rhetorical

IC:

Ark Angel-class carrier, TSS Resonance, seventy miles from Shima Island.

The UAV operator squinted at the screen for several seconds, examining and trying to digest what, exactly, he was seeing. He blinked several times and finally asked the pilot what he made of it.

"Jack?"

"Yo."

"What is that?" The co-pilot said.

"What is what, Dave?"

"That." Dave said, pointing to one of the samurai.

"Looks like a person."

"No, it doesn't. Look closer."

Jack leaned in and examined the picture, "Zoom in more, I can't see a thing."

The co-pilot zoomed in several times, a very high resolution video feed of a V-22 Osprey, with several soldiers standing around it appeared on the screen.

"That," he said, pointing to one of the samurai, "what the hell is it."

"Looks like a person with cat ears and a tail."

"Exactly. What the hell is it?"

The pilot looked at the screen for several seconds, shrugged and moved back towards the controls.

"Hell if I know. Best thing to do would be to report it, and by 'it', I mean the Osprey and armed soldiers," Jack said "don't mention that thing."

"Right, right." Dave said, quickly filling out a report on a clipboard before getting on the intercom to tell his CO about the recent development.

OoC: Should have, would have, could have. I mean, honestly at this point does it matter. I am just trying to get some diplomacy done. Is anyone gonna say "oh this is New Brittonia's Prime Minister here?"

OOC: Well, considering my IC nation doesn't actually know that your IC nation's PM is there. >_>

OOC: And that my Commandos are more in awe of the massive amounts of samurai and 14th centuary tech

OoC: You youngsters don't appreciate the older nations. What a pity. LOL

Ark Angel-class carrier, TSS Resonance, thirty-five miles from Shima Island.

Roughly two hours and forty-five minutes after the Global Hawk returned, the Resonance was positioned thirty-five miles from the coastline and over the horizon. Two UH-60 Blackhawks were prepared and fueled. Several commandos rushed out onto the flight deck and into the 'Hawks. The flight crew closed and disconnected any fuel lines from the helicopters. The pilots were given the green light from the island and headed towards the coastline at a brisk one-hundred fifty miles per hour.

The choppers approached their designated landing zone, marked by an IR flare launched from an orbiting Global Hawk, and quickly touched the ground. Their compliment of special forces released, both 'Hawks gained altitude and returned to the carrier. An F-35B remained on station, at around fifty thousand feet to give air support should the soldiers need it.

OoC: Are you trying to invade because the guy that has this nation has already said that - as he is new and all - he does not want to be invaded.

OOC: No. If I was invading I would probably bring in a transport dock or ten. =P Right now I'm assessing and gathering intelligence. I'm also trying to find a reason, IC, as to why there is a V-22 with well-armed guards in the middle of what appears to be a pre-industrial society.

OOC: No. If I was invading I would probably bring in a transport dock or ten. =P Right now I'm assessing and gathering intelligence. I'm also trying to find a reason, IC, as to why there is a V-22 with well-armed guards in the middle of what appears to be a pre-industrial society.

OoC: He is the Prime Minister of my nation. We want him well secure. In about 2 years ago we had an assassination attempt on a previous PM (the thing was in 2007 and it revolved around his allergy to almonds I believe).

A V-22 would be able to go these long distances and we wanted these guards as - according to intelligence - there was heavy violence and protection of that scale was said to be needed.

(Commando in NB is a general term referring to what would be their version of the U.S. Marine Corps. They are in no way, shape or form some sort of special forces unit).

Also, I don;'t have 20/20 hindsight so ... yeah.

The Commandos stood aside the samurai. They marched, keeping themselves at attention. Prime Minister Crouch sat on the rickshaw. The assistants walked behind him. They checked their satellite Blackberries - the New Brittonian government paid good money for these devices - while following the people, sending out e-mails and test messages to the press, staff, and friends.

Meanwhile, Jacob reclined and contemplated whether it would be okay to smoke.

The people in the streets of the capital were watching the Imperial Guard escorting the Foreigner to the Imperial Palace. Human and Neko Yokai alike stared at the odd man in his odd style.

While this was happening, across the island, in the territory of Daimyo Sanbaku Shinbei (http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh67/Killerspawns/Samurai_cat_girl_by_tickledpinky.jpg), leader of The Shinbei clan. two mounted scouts discovered the Interlopers that were from the Air Craft Carrier (Not that they knew what the hell a Aircraft Carrier Was) and the odd people coming out of the odd air machines. Both raced off to their mistress and she sent out ten Samurai to capture the invaders and bring them back..........alive or dead.

Odd of course is a subjective term. Just as the native people thought that a white man in a freshly pressed suit is odd, Jacob Crouch thought that a nation of people and cat-people living together - all taken back to the 15th century was strange. Oddness was rather subjective and if you were like the Prime Minister and had a diplomatic background this didn't matter. All that mattered was to get things done, to get down to business.

Immediately following the two 'Hawks dustoff, the squad quietly split into two fireteams and went separate paths, stalking through the forest.

"We're on the ground and commencing recon," reported the lead soldier.

"Affirmative, UAV will remain on station to monitor team progress and track hostiles. Maintain ROE, do not engage unless provoked."

"Roger that, we'll do our best to keep casualties to an absolute minimum."

The leader motioned for his fireteam to go quiet and go low. The five man team approached the treeline and scoped out the landing site, using a direct link with the orbiting Global Hawk. High-res pictures were immediately transmitted to the soldier's HUD, showing positions of troops and the paths their following.

The squad leader turned to his subordinates, whispering, "Four combatants, automatic rifles and grenades, far side."

The commandos nodded and spread out along the treeline, taking cover behind fallen logs and beneath tree roots.

OOC: I thought i said that the Daimyo sent out Ten Samurai?

OOC: Were you referring to me or NB?

OOC: Were you referring to me or NB?

To You

To You

OOC: orly? >_>

Oops. I'll write something up in a bit.

OoC: What about me?

The second fireteam was stalking through the woods, using the darkness as cover. The team leader raised his right fist, the other three soldiers stopped and took cover behind trees, brush and rocks.

"You hear that? Footsteps, listen." he whispered.

Another branch breaking echoed through the forest.

"Kill your lights, goggles on and safety off."

"Sir, what the ROE--"

"Do it, they're most likely hostile anyway."

Each soldier did as they were told and spread out, rifles ready. The team leader patched into the Global Hawk and it's onboard IR camera, he easily located his own squad and the enemy, relaying their position via the HUD.

OoC: Is directed at me?

OoC: Is directed at me?

OOC: No

The Ten Samurai were on horses with their hooves covered in cloth to keep quiet. Surprise was everything for trying to capture these Invaders.

The Samurai had katanas bows and the deadly naginata as their weapons, incase it became a fight against the invaders. But they did had orders to capture them alive and unharmed........unless the invaders attacked them.

Then they would bring back their heads.

"Nothing here," The lead samurai said to the rest, "They must be hiding, lets report to The Daimyo and come back with more."

The Samurai soon rode off.

Odd of course is a subjective term. Just as the native people thought that a white man in a freshly pressed suit is odd, Jacob Crouch thought that a nation of people and cat-people living together - all taken back to the 15th century was strange. Oddness was rather subjective and if you were like the Prime Minister and had a diplomatic background this didn't matter. All that mattered was to get things done, to get down to business.

They soon came up to the Palace, which was the largest building in the city. Made of Wood and Gold, it shined in the sunlight, showing the glory of The Imperial rulers.

The Samurai soon started leading the Prime Minister inside the palace. escorting him and his guards through the Gardens. The Sakura Trees were in full bloom as The group headed for the main hall that lead to the Throne Room.

ooc: i would like to land a tank and see what you poeple would do

Somewhere in Yokai Waters

The GWO had been believed to have been driven out of Yokai, and that they would forget the country forever. This wasn't true.

Despite the agreements with Allanea that the GWO would cease actions against Yokai, the GWO was still going at it. The Directorate of Reconnaissance and Intelligence was sending in Recon troopers and spies, all wearing equipment that wouldn't identify them with the GWO. Off the shore, small inflatable boats were bringing in teams and supplies.

The recon men were to prowl the forests and rural (Though most of the country was rural by GWO standards) areas with their ghille suits, armed with MI-8A2s. The spies were to lie in wait in the cities to take out higher figures. The first step though, was to get the DRI forces on the shores. The ships deploying them were part of the GWO's fleet of Backstabber-class ships; the ships were damn near impossible to detect with the most advanced RADAR systems of the era, and they were painted perfectly to blend in with the water.

On the beach, the RIBs were scraping against the shore. The DRI groups were advancing onto the beach, using thermal scopes to make sure nobody was nearby. Then they faded into the forest, while the spy types took on the role of commoners, to eventually go and hide in towns.

OoC: Dude the guy does not want spies or to be invaded.

I mean the guy said no and you are still doing it. Now stop it.

Literally, stop it.

You really are being dumb and this is borderline harassment.

The entire area was beautiful. The area, the architecture, the landscaping. everything was just visually stunning. This all left Prime Minister Crouch amazed.

"They don't make buildings where I live the way they used to.", he thought to himself.

Empress Akihino was waiting for Prime Minister Crouch in what was known as the Jade Room, The Throne Room for The Imperial Family. here, sitting on the Jade and Amber Throne was Akihino her self. The escourts brought Crouch into the room. Tapestries hung on Walls made of Jade. The Floor was made of pure silver. in the Room were pillers made of Iron and Gold. The Roof was of Pine wood.

Akihino nodded in welcome to Crouch.

Akihino nodded in welcome to Crouch.

OoC: @ GWO, I called your actions dumb there is a difference.

Prime Minister Crouch knew a little about royal protocol ... a little. He walked up slowly, carefully to the throne. Everyone else was outside, this conversation was to be one on one. About halfway to the throne, the Prime Minister knelt down and made a sort of bowing motion while knelt, his face was close to the ground but he was looking right at the empress.

"Empress Akihino. It is an honor for me - Jacob Crouch, Prime Minister of New Brittonia - to be present in this room with you."

"And it is a Honor to have you here Crouch-san." Akihino said. "and Welcome to our nation."

ooc i'm going to land a tank already sent a message

"Hostiles have retreated." The sergeant said, breathing a small sigh of relief. "C'mon, let's get back to the carrier." The rest of the fireteam nodded and headed back to the extraction zone.

"Citgo, this is Wolf, intelligence gathered. Native forces are a non-threat, repeat non-threat. They're armed with sticks and stones compared to what we have. Secondary targets are well-armed, well-trained. Bravo reports near-hostile encounter, please advise." The lieutenant said, reporting to the Resonance's captain about the situation.

The Resonance's comm officer replied hastily, "Wolf, maintain current position. Hold position, extraction is inbound. ETA is twelve. ROE has changed. You are cleared to engage hostiles who threaten your position. Out.",

"Roger, holding position."

The squad set up a small defensive position around the landing zone, waiting for the arrival of the helicopter.

OoC: Or you will not...


"And it is a Honor to have you here Crouch-san." Akihino said. "and Welcome to our nation."

"Thank you", the Prime Minister said, rising. "This really is a lovely place. It is sad that yo do not see such craftsmanship in more modern buildings."

"Thank you", the Prime Minister said, rising. "This really is a lovely place. It is sad that yo do not see such craftsmanship in more modern buildings."

"The Palace is the largest and lovely building in the empire." Akihino said, "only a few others come near to it."

"The Palace is the largest and lovely building in the empire." Akihino said, "only a few others come near to it."

Standing up, the Prime Minister walked towards the Empress, slowly, carefully. Jacob Crouch had to make sure that each and every word that he said was selected well. There shall be no errors in any single word.

"Only a few others... wow.", he replied, "Now ... first of all it is with extreme pride that the Commonwealth of New Brittonia welcomes your nation into the world. We know that doing so ... that must have been a hard decision ... but with ... with our assistance we can help you. Brittonia will help this transition go as smoothly as possible."

ooc wow Allanea post so out of the blue

OoC: @ GWO, I called your actions dumb there is a difference.


You really are being dumb and this is borderline harassment.

((OOC: I beg to differ.))

((OOC: I beg to differ.))

OoC: I used the word being. Now if you erase that one word, then it would have a different meaning altogether.

And I feel that if I wrote that post, I would know what its meaning is.

"Lets hope this transition into the Modern world will be good." Akihino said, "The Land is at war with it self. Daimyos fight each other for land here and they might decide that Modernization is bad for their rule in their areas."

"we have farmers give them a second and they be running for help"said one of the crew watching the fields

"then it take time form that help to show"answer another

Bump. IC Post soon

"Lets hope this transition into the Modern world will be good." Akihino said, "The Land is at war with it self. Daimyos fight each other for land here and they might decide that Modernization is bad for their rule in their areas."

"Good. You want to be modernized. That is honestly a first step. What we should do is that late ron you should have a state visit to New Brittonia where you could see modern society and understand what it is like.

Stability, to be honest, will be crucial so New Brittonia will - if you will allow us to do so - upgrade, arm, and train your forces in modern military techniques.

As New Brittonia does this for the stability and security of the world - we will provide any and all assistance for you free of charge."

"Ok," Akihito said, "I also would like factories, to help give jobs to all the people in my island."

ooc be nice if you psot to me as well then just to NB

"Ok," Akihito said, "I also would like factories, to help give jobs to all the people in my island."

"Oh. You have heard of modern manufacturing methods. That's good.

I will try to speak with you as long as possible to finish our conversations and get some deals done. What I want to do is this: as you know there are several armed Commandos here. What will happen, if you approve of it, is that we will leave these troops here as your protection.

In a week's time we will see about a thousand or so men inside of your empire, in this area which ill do the following. They will serve as round-the-clock protection to you, your majesty as well as clearing areas so that we can send in helicopters to begin developing this area.

We know that this nation is at war with itself and the worst thing that can happen is that you are to be usurped in any way shape or form. Which is why we will be giving you superior protection. These modern weapons cannot be defeated by some ragtag rebels with bows and swords."
