*Lt Zofia and Tempco are walking back to de-briefing when they are enveloped by a white light, all of a sudden, they are warped back into the water at the cruise ship the CoC soldiers are standing over them from the deck with their guns drawn*

::In the Hence Palace, Corran is standing at the helipad while Mr. T brings the chopper down. The crew exits the chopper::

Mr. T: DA-AMN! that was a bitch and a half!

Corran: What's going on?

Mr. T: Well I had to sit there and identify myself, the guys, and the chopper about a million times, and give all my credentials before the CoCs let us go! And that was before the explosion too!

Corran: Well, CoC's been under some heavy terrorist attacks, they have every reason to be paranoid. And it sounds like the terrorists made it onto the ship too.

Citan: more than that though. it wasn't just Kusa and CoC terrorists that caused trouble on the ship...

Corran: How do you mean?

Citan: Well just before we left I saw former Specialist Milfman on the ship.

Corran: WHAT!?!?!??!!!

Citan: Yes, he and another man were running though the ship. I would wager that the explosion had something to do with them. Especially since Wallace was on that ship.

Corran: Wallace wasn't on it when it exploded was he?

Citan: I don't believe so. I think i heard that he had evacuated even before we ourselves left.

Luna: While we were on the chopper I wired Manarth, I have the information here that we need. I'll go give this to Fifel Hoover. ::she leaves::

Corran: Oh my God... Avalanche... Oh geeze... I dont' believe it... What about the other delegates?

Ritsuko: We haven't heard a thing from them. I sent a message to Zofia, but she hasn't responded yet...

Corran: Oh geeze... this is bad...

"Crippleslovenia and Christina Tan Sign Unification Treaty"

Hawmonic, CTn- Holy Emperor R. Thro Gryposis III of Crippleslovenia and Dr. Christina Tan of The Jingoistic States of Christina Tan announced today that the two nations have agreed to the official annexation of Tan's island. Dr. Tan will continue to perform leadership duties, but as part of the Crippleslovenian government.

"Annexation is such a harsh term," Gryposis stated and the LETI news conference held hours after the treaty was signed. "We prefer to call it a unification. We've been looking at Tan's island for quite some time, with all of its natural resources and rice fields. Then one day during a diplomatic meeting I just brought up the unifcation idea to Tan."

"WECANNOTCOMPETEINLETI," Tan stated. "THEREARETOOMANYMIGHTYCOUNTRIESANDWEWERESTRUGGLINGTOSURVIVE. ITRIEDINCREASINGMANDATORYBEATINGOFCHILDRENTOFOURTIMEADAY,BUTECONOMYSTILLNOTSTRONGENOUGH AFTERCONSIDERINGTHISWHILEHOLDINGUPSTEINWAYFORFIVEDAY,IDECIDEDTHISWASONLYCHOICE."

Other terms include:

1. Any armed forces on the isalnd, which include 4 armored divisons, an infantry of 15,000, a navy consisting of a carrier, two battleships and a submarine, and a small air force, become part of the Crippleslovenian armed forces, but will mostly play a policing role around the island.

2. The tax rate on the island stays the same, but the funds collected will go to Crippleslovenia, and a proportional percentage of the Crippleslovenian taxes collection will go to help support the island.

3. Crippleslovenia officially annexes Dubelco.

*The rest of the reports wave their hands*

HB: Seeing none, I will leave you.

The Armed Republic of Rialto no longer recognizes the nation of Dubelco due to the lack of territory.

The Armed Republic of Rialto is pleased to announce that it is annexing the remaining portion of the territory of Dubelco. We are also calling for the former leader of Dubelco to go into exile within 48 hours.

Samsylvannia would like to announce a summit meeting regarding the recent annexation of the country of Dubelco. Topics of discussion will be how best to divide the country, etc. It will be held in Dubelco's former capital of North Olmstead. It will commence as soon as the current LETI-LOTI Summit has come to a conclusion. Details will follow.

OOC: Ed that is plain and simple godmodding.

To recent reports of dubelcoian annexiation we are also annexing the dubelco citizens; seeing as how we dont care for part of the land.. and well.. once we get tired of having dubelcoain property we'll just let them go die off somewhere.

The Grand Marchion Elastull officially announced today that the Kingdom of Mirabar no longer recognizes the authority of Dubelco, and has forth-with annexed their remaining lands and any caves they currently occupy.

GODMOD.

This forum is for the LETI Region, our in house forum is getting too cluttered.

OOC: dang and i have been posting here!

GODMOD.

That has been recognized and dealt with. It was corrected a few posts after the original.

OOC: I was laughing when ryan did it first as a joke and it was funny, now its simply getting out of hand, until someone actually tries to annex me, I'm going to run my country normally. I've got more than enough military to ward off you know-nothing nations, just go back to real topics.

Mogg4 department of Williamology has officially annexed the nation of Dubelco to turn it into a laboratory for studying people named Bill.

Emporress Dawn also makes an adress:

"People of MOGG4 and LETI, i am pleased to announce the completement of our weopons program. Our Military now has strenth in machinery. We have also completed our weopons of mass construction program, and it is now functional. Thank you and may we put a stop to CoC."

Emporress Dawn declares that every monday will now be a day of pirate appriciation, because of the discovery that 78% of our population are pirates.
Pirates are encouraged to attack shipments to and from CoC. All of LETI may participate.

Pirates are encouraged to attack shipments to and from CoC. All of LETI may participate.

OOC: problem......there is no shipping heading into LETI from CoC.

CoC conducts no trade with any nation in LETI.

Spinkoslovakia remains firm in annexing the former territory of Me_262 whereas Dubelco is being annexed itself. Thank you and that is all.
-The Specially Reaquisitioning team

Dubelco stands by our decision to keep Me_262. Dubelco is not being annexed because it does not recognize the authority or the seriousness of the actions.

OOC: They all like to be funny, and the country is still mine because I was there first and with guns, so nyahh!

*Newsbreak* Newscaster: We interrupt your broadcast to bring you this special new bulletin. Mirabar enlists the help of Dr. Stephen Falken in hopes of creating a more up to date defensive system for LETI. His research is still currently classified, but leaks report that he is using computers to increase defense. The Grand Marchion Elastull addresses the region in hopes for the cooperation of LETI to further its defensive capabilities as a whole.

Elastull ::Camera cuts to a clean shaven man standing 4 feet and dressed in full charcoal uniform with Mirabarian flag flapping behind announces in a calm yet commanding tone:: My fellow leaders of LETI, we are facing a time when the defensive capabilities of our lands are not adequate to keep us safe. We must work together with Dr. Falken to help better our current status. Delegates will be sent to major countries in the region to help get this new program up and running.

Newscaster: There you have it, the Grand Marchion himself addressing the nation, and now back to our regularly scheduled program. *End newsbreak*

Dubelco officially annexes the following nations:

Edenstein
Spinkoslovakia
Samsylvannia
Mirabar
Disgruntled Postal Men

The Armed Republic of Rialto demands that THE FORMER LEADER of dubelco peacefully go into exile or they will be captured and publicly executed for treason. We would also like to add that we are annexing the bunny population of dubelco since our bruins have developed a taste for them.

Message from the Grand High Skank:

Although our mission to take over LETI failed... mostly due to our own laziness... we would like to announce that we have no more hostilities at this time. And we would also like to annex Dubelco. Thank you.

That is all

OOC: Please ignore this post entirely. It wasn't made by myself, but a friend of mine who thought it would funny to mess with my nation. The post that was made about myself annexing myself is also false. Sorry for the waste of space on the boards, but the whole issue is a waste of space.

To: All participating members of Operation Annex Dubelco

Please disregard the previous post, it was clearly a diversionary tactic by rebel Dubelcans. The Annexation Summit will proceed as planned. The location is tentitively the Holiday Inn in the captical of Dubelco. No date has been set.

The Armed Republic of Rialto demands that THE FORMER LEADER of dubelco peacefully go into exile or they will be captured and publicly executed for treason. We would also like to add that we are annexing the bunny population of dubelco since our bruins have developed a taste for them.

Edward: What? Oh, the sandwich. Here, take these canisters of green radioactive biohazardous goo.

*He hands them to Tarvis, but they fall to the floor.*

Ham: Oh shit! *Tarvis and Ham scramble to pick them up.*

Tarvis: It's okay, see? The lids were on tight.

All: Wew!

Karen: That was a close one. If those had broken, you'd be in big trouble. Gettin radioactive biohazardous goo all over this...

Tarvis: Shit! It's leaking! Um...better hurry up, it's melting.

Karen: David's going to be pissed.

Tarvis: I don't want to tell him....Ed....you tell him, he's scared of you!

Edward: No he's not!

Tarvis: You attacked him with a knife!!!!!

Tracey: Well, we kind of got lost.
Alyssa: Oh yeah. Women don't have a very good sense of direction.
Tracey: Nor do confused, skankified men. We did kill that one guy who radioed out to Samsylvannia though. I think his name was Wesley.
Alyssa: That's good. So are we finally reaching our destination?
Tracey: Well, our orders were changed. GHS had originally sent us to Henceland Omega, but now we're headed for Dubelco.
Alyssa: Oh yeah?
Tracey: Yeah, something about annexing it?

*In Carianada, Buffy, Deanna, and Empress Carolyn are sitting in the war room talking*

Buffy: Carianada has certainly been peaceful lately... even though there's been so much fighting in the LETI region.
Deanna: It's because of the LOTI region... they're the ones creating all the conflict. And our male leader colleagues can't resist messing with them.
Carolyn: Men. They're silly. Speaking of which, are you guys going to go to Swensons today? I could use a galley boy...
*they giggle*
Buffy: Well, what about Julian?
Carolyn: *sighs* I still don't know where he is. He's been missing for almost a month now.
Deanna: What about that guy who was pretending to be a delegate from Carianada at the LOTI/LETI summit?
Carolyn: I don't know anything about him, but frankly, LOTI bores me.

*Secretary of Foreign Affairs Kelly Bookbinder comes rushing into the room*

Kelly: Empress! Julian Bashir's been found. He's dead.
Carolyn: What??
Kelly: It's true... and the mark of the terrorist group Avalanche was found on his body. *she covers her eyes* He was so mangled they could barely identify him.
Carolyn: That's horrible... so Avalanche is still out there?
Kelly: It gets worse. Carianadan intelligence thinks the fake Carianadan delegate is part of the group as well... and Slotter's still after you.
Carolyn: Of course. *sighs* I'm going to have to go into hiding again.
Kelly: I'm sorry, ma'am.
Carolyn: It's okay, I'll deal. I have... let's just say an old friend... who'll help me out here. Get me the Emperor of Edenstein...

::In the hence Palace::

Corran: Hoover! Have you gotten me any information yet?

Hoover: No sir. We can get no communication to the area. I've just contacted Dubelco and Samsylvannia and neither of them can get through either.

Corran: What about Edenstein?

Hoover: The line was busy.

Corran: Oh... Well then, what word on Avalanche?

Hoover: That's the interesting thing your Henceness. Dr. Uzuki claims he saw Mr. Milfman and Mr. Laughertee on the ship, but we've just received a comm from Carianada stating that the mark of Avalnche was found on Bashir's dead body.

Corran: Do you think they could have multiple operations going on?

Luna: I thought Avalanche only had a cople people in it.

Hoover: Last time we heard from them yes. But who knows what's going on now?

Corran: Well, um... this is not good...

We now interrupt your hourly broadcast of “Miss’ssippi fishin’: In search for the Cat Fish with No Shoes On” to bring you a response from Emperor Kalliker.

GK: “Citizens of Garem S. Kalliker: DAG BLAME IT!!! We have not, repeat, NOT been annexed by Crippleslovenia. Nor has our ally Christina Tan. These false, pooh-yah, accusations were made in haste by the leaders of Crippleslovenia after some discussion regarding potential partnership in some situations. Do not be misled by the swift wording of “unification” that the people of Cripple have used. We are not, unified with them at all. We are not a part of Crippleslovenia. I have not dun-got retired – nor have we made no colonial government officials. No taxes will go to Crippleslovenia. Besides, if it were really my statement, don’t you think I would have spelled JAMBALAYA right? The same goes for the Jingoistic States of Christina Tan…Right Christina?

Oh and send word to LETI about the garden on Bundersberg.

:twisted: I think it time we show Ur Ma whose boss. They can't push us a round.

**walks to the bathroom muttering something about blowing up stuff**

***We interupt whatever you might be watching to bring you this special BJ***

High Priest Gerald: Why do I have to make the announcement? Why can't one of the...oh we're on. Wonderful people of LETI! We at BJ Land our proud to announce that the LETI National Garden is COMPLETED!!!! :D We would like to invite all the heads of states, emperors, dignataries, important people, or whatever you would like to call yourself to the GRAND OPENING CEREMONY!!!! :D It will take place in two days. We hope to see you there.


***Now back to whatever you might have been watching***
OOC:(http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1899402#1899402)
That is where the garden posts are. The welcoming post is already there. Please check in if you are going to attend.

***secretary on phone to Samsylvannia***

Come on! Pick up! Pick up! What a busy signal?!?!? But you were just ringing! I hate this phone. Fine! I'LL HANG UP AND TRY AGAIN! STUPID RECORDED OPERATOR VOICE! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU! Oh good it's ringing again. Pick up! Pick up!

OOC: Last one for the night. I swear.

**High Priestess Melissa -- sitting in a bubble bath with High Priest Jeffery***

HP Jeff: Mel, it seems like everybody has been annexing Dubelco. I think we should do it too. You know, with the big GRAND OPENING and everything. We need to start making friends.

HPS Mel: Do whatever you like. No really anything. I'll do anything.

HP Jeff: Secretary! (Secretary walks in to see the two :shock:) Get somebody to make the announcement that BJ Land is annexing Dubelco as soon as possible. You may go.
(Secretary walks out :shock: )

HPS Mel: Now, where'd I put that cucumber?

Dubelco officially annexes the following nations:

Edenstein
Spinkoslovakia
Samsylvannia
Mirabar
Disgruntled Postal Men
Crippleslovenia
Carianada
Manarth
Euphoni
Rialto

That is all

this is null and void. i (lowell simshauser) am quite in control here. If you have issues with this we can take it to samsylvania.

OOC: What part of "I retracted that post" doesn't anyone understand. A friend of mine was screwing with my nation. Just forget it happened.

*Edenstein Channel 2 flashes on the air*

Goodevening, this is Stephanie Schuster rerporting to you tonight. First we take you to a press conference live in here in the capital of Edenstein

*Scene changes to a press conference room with Admiral Ulonov standing behind a podium, already speaking to someone*

Ulonov: And that is why we don't allow penguins into the consulate building anymore, but down to buisness. A few days ago, a statement was put out that we had annexed Dubelco, this was simply not the case, we have always had good relations with Dubelco and look forward to continueing this relationship.

*the reporters are all shocked at his last statement and they all franticly wave their hands to ask a question*

Ulonov: Yes, you there, what is it?

Reporter one: Farbra Walters, Edenstein Channel Two and Leti News Channel five, I think I may speak for the rest of the Reporters when I say.... WHAT THE HELL???

Ulonov: Well, Edenstein grows tired of the constant affairs of other nations, we figured the other nations that have also annexed Dubelco can have it, if they drop their claims to the nation, thats fine, if they want us to step in as a neutral moderator, thats fine. Thats all for today. thank you.

*Screen Flashes back to reporter*

Schuster: Also in Edenstein today, at the port of Junon on Catapillo a ceremony was held to celebrate the laying of a keel for a new class of Edenstein battleships.

*Screen Flashes to Junon where their are dignitaries standing around a dry dock, the bottom form of a ship flashes on the screen, then a dignitary making a speach*

Dignitary: This new ship will help right a new chapter in naval warfare.. it will *flashes back to anchor*

Schuster: This new class of ship was highly pushed by Admiral Ulonov, it was designed by the Kerestian Design Beureu and is predicted to take 2 years to produce.

At the ESA, the HELO Shuttle lifted off on its return voyage to space, baring any major accidents, the ESA plans on building a fleet of 10 of these shuttles to help pave the way into space. Also the civillian version of the craft the HALO has successfully completed its shakedown runs and is scheduled to start operating flights as early as next month, we'll bring you more as it develops.

And finaly, tonight at the Bolshoi theater, the award winning play, The Kingdom of Erie had its final performance before it moves onto other cities in Edenstein.

Thats all for this edition of Edenstein News, Goodnight.

Christina Kelner: We interupt this program with a broadcast from Mark McMillan, here to tell us the full story of the LETI/LOTO summit. Obviously, we know that Brock and Goldstone were killed by terrorists during the incident, and now McMillan is going to tell us exactly what happened.

::Manarth News Network cuts to image of McMillan, shoulder in a sling, walking up to a podium::

McMillan: My friends, it's a tragedy on a large scale that befell us on that liner. A large number of terrorists, all of Kusoan dessent, managed to smuggle themselves onboard. Their first targets were Wallace and Brock, and while they couldn't get Wallace, they shot and killed our own Prime Minister, while Majority Leader Goldstone bravely died defending him.

Not content with that, the terrorists tried to blow up the ship. And they would have killed us all if it weren't for the vallient efforts of the Edenstein and Samsylvannian delegates. Realizing what they were planning, they sacrificed themselves to warn us, and covered our escape, giving their lives so that we might live.

I personally saw Lt. Zophia and Daniel Jackson, after a passioned kiss, shoot down five terrorists each before they were blown up by the bomb. These late blooming lovers saved us, and I am eternally grateful to both of them, for my safety.

At this point I will take further questions on the incident.

*reporter stands up to ask a question*

Farbra Walters LETI News channel 5 and Edenstein channel 2, this *searches for words* Blatent Schite Fest of a story sounds like a complete falicy... the tabloids have always made it well known that Lt. Zofia and Daniel Jackson of Sammsylvania hated each other. And also, how is it so convienent that the atagonists that called this Summit, namely Council of Clan's people all made it off safely, while people from your government, edenstein, and sammsylvania all perished Also, how was it that YOU made it off of this ship?

I said already, I made it to a lifeboat after heroic sacrifices by Lt. Zophia and Daniel Jackson. I was not aware of their previous hatred, perhapse it was mearly a guise for a more passioned love affair.

At any rate, they saved us, volenteering themselves to ensure our safety, fighting hand in hand with Manarthian troops which boarded the vessel to disarm the terrorists.

I'm truely sorry for their loss, they fought bravely and selflessly to save us all.

*A plane with the Linux Penguin symbol lands at the empress's private palace airport*

*Empress Carolyn, Buffy, Deanna, and Kelly are standing by the plane*

Buffy: So, you're off to Edenstein.
Carolyn: Well, that's what people will think... I'm not disclosing exactly where I'm going. Then Slotter'd be able to find me easily. *sighs* You be careful though. He may still attack the palace.
Kelly: We're good, Empress. Don't worry about us.
Deanna: I'm currently conducting an investigation. I've been in contact with Henceland Omega, and they had thought Avalanche's group was much smaller than it seems now. They were acting up at the LETI/LOTO summit a few days ago, and it seems strange that they'd be killing Bashir as well as doing that.
Buffy: Well, there's two possibilities: either they are a bigger threat than we'd thought, or this wasn't Avalanche's work at all but a copycat.
Carolyn: Yeah, yeah, whatever, okay, I'm getting on this plane. Is Emperor Ed here? *pokes her head into the plane* Oh come on, I figured he'd come out personally to see me... he's not here? *pouts* Oh well... I guess some leaders actually have business to attend to... Later, ladies. *she boards the plane*

*Deanna turns to Buffy and Kelly*

Deanna: Whew... she's finally gone.
Buffy: Strange how she leaves every time there's something bad going down... Kel, you're leaving for the Dubelco summit soon, right?
Kelly: Yes ma'am. I'll let you know how it goes...

:::Lady Cato is en route to the former Me_262, which Spinkoslovakia had originally arrived first to begin annexing this immediate neighbor, which Dubelco also tried to annex. She is with some military, and the brothers Matthew, Martin, Thomas and James. Transportation is in the giant wooden Slinkie Dog, with much similarity to the Trojan Horse:::

C: Brother Matthew, have we the weapons?

Mat: No'm. But we have the 3 Holy Hand Grenades of Golgatha.

C: Where did we get those?

T: We found them while heading home from Carianada.

C: Alright. That will do. Here's the plan, Brothers: The 5 of us will depart a short distance from the Dubelco camp. The Slink will move further towards the camp with the rest of the military, who will commence in finishing the coup once the grenades have been used.

:::The battle plan is set up and ready to go. We see the Brothers and Cato ready to go:::

Brother Matthew blesses the Holy Hand Grenades: Oh Lord, bless these thy hand grenades, that with them thou mayest blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy.

:::grenades are handed to Cato, Thomas and James who proceed to follow the directions:::

Brother Martin: From the book of Armaments, chapter 2, beginning with verse 9, "and the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out thy Holy Pins, then thou shalt count to three, no more, no less. Three shalt be the number thou count, and the number of counting shall be three. Four thou shalt not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, thne lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Golgatha towards thy foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it. Amen."

Cato: 1, 2, 5!!

James: 3, ma'am.

C: Right, 1, 2, 3!!!

:::Cato, James and Thomas lob the grenades; there is an explosion and Slink empties to stage the coup on the Dubelco camp:::

OOC: I do believe that I
1: Spoke and acted first
B: Sent actual military there first
I'll play along but i've git RL stuff so sorry.

OOC:

A: Please come to the Grand Opening of The LETI National Garden
(yes that is what the post is called)
2: If you don't come you will surely miss it, for it will be fun for all.
III: If you plan on coming please let one of your people check in at the that post. (this is the link.

Sorry Dave, I had to do it.

*Kelly is aboard a plane en route to Dubelco. She receives a comm from Deanna*

Deanna: Bad news, Kelly... Dubelco's been attacked by Spinkoslovakia. And since they're our ally, we'll have to hold off on entering the country.
Kelly: Well, I'm already on my way there. And besides, I heard the country's leader is pretty hot.
Deanna: Depends on who you ask. All right, if you want to enter a war zone, it's up to you.
Kelly: I'll see what's going on when we land.
Deanna: Okay... but if Spinkoslovakia calls us, we may have to send troops. You could be caught in the crossfire.
Kelly: I said, I'll see what's going when we land. Don't worry about *me.* You're the one who's going to end up as cheeseburger when Avalanche finds you.
Deanna: I believe the expression is "hamburger."
Kelly: Oh, right.

*The plane begins circling in Dubelcan airspace, searching for a place to land*

* A VR sub, that has been in the LETI region since the move, spots a MOG4 ship and sends a missile towards it. *

* A flock (due to what the radar might see) of F-117 fly into Dubelco air space with the intention of destroying the air defense systems*

**Edited due to a neglect of RP rules **

Vandershale: We support VR in whatever it is they are doing, but do not send troops at this time.

*On board the OS 5, Fleet operations carrier for Task force 3 picks up the VR sub on the ASBD grid. Seamen Donovan picks up the contact and calls the duty officer over*

Donovan: SIR! Positive Subcontact! Its just fired on a MOGG4 ship!

Officer: Damn it! Scramble a few P-3 Orions out there to drop some bouy's and debth charges, also launch a few SH-60's with torpedo's and penguins. I don't want them anywhere near my carrier group.

Donovan: Yes Sir!

*The SH-60's lift off and head towards the sub, while P-3 orions from land bases scramble to intercept, when they reach the target, the P-3's drop sonar bouy's and quickly reaquire the sub. The SH-60's get aquire the signal from the sonar bouys and lock range on the sub*

* A flock (due to what the radar might see) of F-117 fly into Dubelco air space and take out it's air defense systems*

ooc: You can't claim that they took out the airdefences, only dave can do that. You can say that they where dropping stuff on them but not that you took them out...

OOC: I appologize on the wording .. read that as their mission was to take out air defenses.

* Messages sent from SHK Tümmler*

^^^ We are not attacking Edenstien or its shipping. Pirates are a threat to international shipping and will be eliminated. ^^^

::United States of Ontario troops stationed on the locks double their air patrols::

::In the Hence Palace, Fifel Hoover brings the latest reports to Ritsuko and the rest of the administration::

Ritsuko: What the HELL? Or as Wallace liked to say, WTF? What's going on?

Hoover: I don't know. We've received unconfirmed reports of a missle blast in CoC, but it was fired from the LOTI area. In addition, reports are coming in of attacks on MOGG4 and Dubelco.

Ritsuko: This makes NO sense whatsover... Where's Corran?

Maison: Well since Mistress Luna just left to go back to Daistallia, His Henceness is currently listening to the issues of the citizens.

::softly in the distance some old ladies can be heard bickering about a pool table::

Ritsuko: I see. And of course this is in ADDITION to the terrorist acts of Kusa and/or Avalanche on the ship, the disregard for neutrality by CoC, the expansionism of Crippleslovenia, and the random annexations of Dubelco.

Hoover: And don't forget our intelligence regarding sporatic activity in Carianada.

Bart: It sounds like the whole Great Lakes area's going to pot.

Rom: Yeah, we should all strip nekkid and go to BJ Land!

Tempest: No! Don't you see! We have to make sure that HO stays strong! Right now excpet for the recent environemental concerns, we're finally becoming a strong nation! We have to do something!

Sigurd: Well we can't do anything militarily. We haven't had a buildup of our armed forces since the almost VR War. And any buildup we do now will be taken as an act of war.

Meis: Yeah, and we'll get our butts kicked byt all of LOTI...

Sigurd: Well probably not, but still...

Citan: Might I suggest we instead turn our attention to Avalanche? They are probably the one thing we can actually do something about...

Ritsuko: ::sits down:: You might be right... but how?

Rialto wishes to announce that it has annexed the ENTIRE military force of duebelco.

*Top Secret Samsylvannian Facility

Zofia: *Reading over Manarthian press statements?* WHAT? Impassioned kiss? He wishes! What the hell?! Oh yeah and I'm not dead either!

Zofia: Keep them thinking that way...

Emperor Conn: So, it seems that it was all one big screwup. We should have known better than to trust those fools with security.

General Murdock: Sir, I have five Army Airborne Divisions and the entire DOSAF ready to...

Conn: No! We will not start a war with them.

Murdock: But, sir...

Conn: That's an order, General. As far as they're concerned, we know nothing about what really happened. For now I'd like to keep it that way. our forces will stand down. I am downgrading us to CHEESECON 4. Keep the DOSAF on high alert, I don't like this business with VR and Dubelco, but Emperor Ed seems to have that situation under control. But draw up contingency plans for invasions of both countries...just in case.

Murdock: Aye, sir.

*DOS Communications Center*
Nameless Clerk 1: Sir, we've intercepted a message from the VR Sub:

^^^ We are not attacking Edenstien or its shipping. Pirates are a threat to international shipping and will be eliminated. ^^^

Names Higher Ranking Clerk 1: Send this reply, but do not identify us.

The pirates of MOG4 cannot be a threat to international shipping, as the locks are closed and there is no international trade.

He, he, that'll piss them off....

NC1: He he he, yes, sir.

OOC: Well VR, we'll get to you soon, but now for something completely different.

IC: As the holy hand grenades are thrown, they fall and hit the base of the of a watch tower. It takes moderate damge as it begins to crumble. The entire base is awake now and bunkers with 50 caliber machine guns light up the brush from whence the grenades were thrown. Men come storming out of structures and hop into hummers/stykers and take their arms. The other remaining 3 towers turn on their spotlights and the base is now totally lit. Men in farther back pits are being fed coordinates for cluster bombs. Patrols leave the base and go into the brush to weed them out. Far off about 3 miles away, Black Hawk helos are being preped for launch.

Loses:
Structures: One tower, one bunker, perimeter damage.
Men: 14 Men killed, 6 wounded

IC:

*The skanks sail into the port of Dubelco along with the Samsylvannian fleet*

Tracey: *radioing into the port command center* We need to dock here--can someone give us space?
Guy at Port Command: I can't right now, ma'am. You're not authorized, you have too many ships, and besides, we're being attacked right now.
Tracey: WTF? We have orders--we were told we'd be authorized to move in here.
Guy at Port Command: Well, I don't know anything about that. You'll have to wait. *clicks off*
Tracey: *turning to Alyssa* This sucks... are you gonna call the GHS and find out what we're supposed to do now?
Alyssa: No, leave this to me.

*In one fluid motion, Alyssa turns and swan-dives off the side of the ship*

Tracey: Greeeeat. My commanding officer goes and commits suicide... now what am I supposed to do?

*About half an hour later, the radio turns on. Alyssa's voice comes through*

Alyssa: Okay, guys, we're in.
Tracey: What? How'd you--
Alyssa: Just credit my mad skank skills. See you in a few minutes. *radio clicks off*

*On the OS 5, that Captain has been alerted to the situation and is now on the deck*

Captain: Whats the situation?
Officer: Apperently they fired upon the ship because of alledged pirate activities. Also we have reports of VR F-117's flying of dubelcen territory
Captain: What do we have out there?
Officer: We have 3 P-3 orions and 2 SH-60's from OS 5 and 3 from OS 6 out there.
Captain: OK, get some tomcats in the air for CAP, Launch a few more SH-60's out there with Marines on them, also get launch 2 Hinds loaded with a boarding party and some Cobra's for support.
Officer: Yes, sir!
Captain: Also, tell those SH-60's that are out to get that sub to the surface. Tell them to come to the surface and prepare to be boarded, or be they will be sunk.
Officer: Yes, sir!

*The SH-60's that are tailing the Submarine recieve the message from the carrier*
Pilot 1: What the hell is going on?
Co Pilot: I don't know but apparently they want them to the surface.

*They radio to the sub*

Pilot: Unidentified Submarine, you are ordered to surface and prepare to be boarded. If you do not comply, you will be sunk, I repeat surface and prepare to be boarded.

**Back in Edenstein**

*The Edenstein plane that went to Carianada to pick up Empress Carolyn lands at a military base outside of Linux, it roles to a stop on the tarmac. Emperor Ed with a few marines are waiting for her next to a humvee. The doors on the plane open and the Empress Carolyn steps out. Ed walks up to her and gives her a hug*

Ed: Ahh, yes! How are you! I'm glad to see that you made it here safely. Avalanch activity hasn't been very big here.

*he puts his arm around her as they walk towards the humvee talking*

SHK Tümmler radios back

^^ We comply. Surfacing now. ^^

* 5 VR CH-53's are en route to the submarines location to evacuate the crew *

Officer: Sir! Five boagys coming in, slow movers, probably helicopters

Captain: Send out a welcome party, launch a few cobras to intercept, and tell the guys at the sub they got company, and let those choppers know they are violating LETI Airspace..

Officer: Yes sir. *The officer tells gives the comm officer his orders, and the comm sends a message to the incoming choppers*

Comm: Incoming bogeys, you are violating LETI Airspace, we have scrambled intercepts, please state your intentions.

*On site, the submarine has surfaced, at this point the helicopters with marines have made it out, they hover above the deck of the sub and quick rope down, a total of twenty marines carrying SMK machine guns, 9mm side arms, kevlar flack coats and flash greanades come down in the first deployment. 3 climb the ladder on the sail to the conning deck and pound on the hatch with the butt of one of their rifles.

^^^ Radio transmittion ^^^

We are pulling our men from the subs they've been over due for at sea.

OOC: Ed i'd just like to point out that the sub is in international waters therefore, the helo's are in International airspace. Unless there is a region wide government that claims all of it as their airspace, you can't really do that, well you could but you'd look like a dick. Now it is legal for other nations aircraft to overfly your carrier, but you can send up aircraft to say hello. But shooting down his aircraft in international airspace while en route to one of his own vessels would defenitly be considered hostile and could be considered an act of war. I know i did something similar, but what i did is similar not exactly the same, there are subtelties and not everything is in black and white. when i intercepted the news plane, it was in the shape of a bomber flying without an identification code, and no radio transmission trying to sneak into my airspace, and since it is capable of firing cruise missiles which it might have already done, my fighters intercepted it and destroyed it. And i know you don't like me butting in right here, but dustin is a friend of mine and i will give him help when he needs it.

Gen. McMillan of LOTO Command: LETI airspace?! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Who does Emperor Ed think he is anyway? There's no "LETI" organization, just a cluster of fueding states. Sounds to me like VR needs some help dealing with these characters. Some one get me some stationary right now!

::Memo to Edenstein::

The nations represented by LOTO do not recognize your claim to the whole of the airspace and waterways of LETI. LOTO does not even claim the water of LOTI as it's own. Therefor we demand that you return control of the VR submarine to it's Skipper and do not hinder the passage of the planes sent to relieve the crew.

Any hostile action taken by your nation in international waters will be considered an act of Piracy, and the ships and/or aircraft involved will be delt with as such.

::end memo::

Send that over all airways to make sure they get the message. And get a some F/A-22s in the air to make sure they comply. Are the locks done yet?

Col: Yes sir, just finished them today.

Gen. McMillan: Good, move the fifth COC fleet through to LETI too. Let's see if Edenstein's willing to start a war over what isn't theirs.

* The VR helicopters arrive and start removing the crew. Captain Knirschen get out, salutes, and climbs the rope ladder to the helicopter. The helicopters then head back to VR. Suddendenly an explosion happens. *

Knirschen: *hearing the explosion looks out the window of the copter * my ship! I will get you for this ...

* a second explosion occurs .. radiation leaks and the ship begins to sink *

Slotter: Well as much as I hate to see it, you're going to be the one who carries out my bidding, Jay Smerling. The others are dead. Are you prepared?

Jay: Of course I am boss, you leave it up to me.

Slotter: Ok. Now a source tells us our target is 'suited up.'

Jay: Huh?

Slotter: You know, "suited up?"

Jay: I don't understand.

Slotter: Oh come on now! I can't just tell you where to go. It might be intercepted itself!

Jay: Is that code?

Slotter: ::smacks forehead:: Forget what I just said Jay. Bernie Barnhead, you're in charge. Do you know what I'm talking about?

Bernie: Sure do, boss.

Slotter: Great. Go forth then. And make sure this dumbass doesn't get us in trouble. I almost think I'd rather deal with CoC than him... Almost...

To: COC Fleet entering LETI Region
From: Samsylvannia

Please accept our welcome into the great region of LETI. While you are visiting, you will be escorted by ships and aircraft from the DOS 7th Fleet, from a safe distance of course. Also, while you are here, please do not interfere with affairs regarding certain members of your region. Viert Reich has, without provokation, attacked land belonging to (in no particular order) Spinkoslovakia, Samsylvannia, Mirabar, Disgruntled Postal Men, Crippleslovenia, Carianada, Manarth, Euphoni, and Rialto. We are all technically at a state of war with him. We hope this conflict will be resolved quickly and without loss of life. Please keep your hands in the vehicle until it comes to a complete and total stop. Again, enjoy your stay here in LETI.

Vice Admiral McLeod: Well thank you Samsylvannian fleet. I assure you that we are just here to make sure the situation is resolved peacefully. VR is a member of LOTO command so I must remind you that an unprovoked attack on him is an attack on all nations of LOTO. And I haven't heard a public outcry form any of those nations about this alleged attack (save your own).

But that isn't important. We will be traveling in international waters, and as such should not be interfered in any way. If we are attacked without provocation we have been given the means to defend ourselves. I hope we enjoy our stay in LETI, and I hope you don't regret any actions you take during our stay.

MacLeod: *To his crew* Ok guys, incase of trouble we've been granted nuclear release. Let's make sure the VR troops get home safely.

IC: 10 miles outside of Dubelcan air space, a patrol(5) of F-22's spot the "flock" of fighters.

Bravo Leader: Bravo 2 this is Bravo 1, can you confirm bogeys out the right side over?
B2: Confirmed F-117's, what shall we do about it sir?
BL: Lets do this by the books, I'm radioing command, but while its happening plot intercept courses.
BL: Fairview Base this is Bravo leader, we have spotted bogeys attempting to penetrate Dubelcan air space, we are moving to intercept. Please advise.

*Fairview base*
Comm Officer: Sir Bravo Flight radios in they spot F-117's and are moving to intercept and request advisement.
Comander: Scramble 3 squadrons into the air, and divert Zeta flight, they are the other closest patrol. Tell Bravo flight to make contact and order a complete withdrawl or they will be shot down. Also raise S.A.M.'s 1-14, and put all bases on the eastern sector on alert, with this hole fiasco with the politicians someone might be trying to take advantage of us.
CommO: Yes sir.

Radio: Bravo Flight this is Fairview Base, you are ordered to make contact and warn these bogeys of their flight path, if they do not respond or divert shoot them down, Zeta flight has been diverted and their ETA is 5 minutes, more reinforcements are being scrambled. Over and out.
BL: You heard the man boys, form on me and stay sharp.
BL: Unidentified bombers, this is Bravo Flight of the Dubelcan Air Force, you are about to cross Dubelcan Air Space, identify yourself and divert your course or you will be brought down! Over.

*Bravo Flight takes a wing formation behind the flock of bombers.*

::In the Hence Palace::

Ritsuko: Hoover! How come you didn't TELL me that VR was attacking? DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS?!?!?!?!?

Fifel: It means you'll overreact and try to declare war on them without asking His Henceness' permission.

Ritsuko: Uh... er... that is...

Maison: Well put, Master Hoover!

Ritsuko: Shut up old Maison. Look, Dorrstein's overstepped his bounds this time. Attacking Dubelco and MOG4. Come on, Dubelco's being grabbed like a sleeping drunk woman. Everyone's trying to stake a claim!

Meis: Mmmm....

Ritsuko: Shut up, Meis. Anyway, now we're being attacked for no reason! Put that together with all the other stuff he's done to us!

Citan: Actually, by us you mean LETI. He actually hasn't done a thing to us since VR left.

Ritsuko: Well shoot, we're the only ones he ISN'T attacking, we should help our fellow regionmates!

Citan: Well actually, I think its being handled. I suggest we lay low untill...

Ritsuko: I suggest you shut the hell up. I'm finding Corran...

Meis: Oh boy... this could spell trouble...

*In the C&C room, Aronar sits and waits for the reports.*

Aronar: Does anyone, I mean anyone know wtf happened on that ship?!

*In walks Andrew McDaniel and Taskmater*

MCD: I do...
A: How did you get off the boat?
TM: Don't ask...
MCD: We used an insurance policy thanks to one solid treaty. We've already been debriefed. Anything happening here?
A: Oh my god yes, we've been annexed by countless countries, attacked by Spinkoslovakia, Fairview base just reported in bogey F-117's, and the Mr. Coffee is on the fritz!
MCD: Holy Shit, whos been handling all this? I mean, wtf...
A: I know, its beyond me too. The annexation was all a funny joke Gryposis called me about, but now it may be real, Carianada delegates arrived and I denied them access to our port. I can't stall them forever Andy.
MCD: I know sir. Well, we're back, so hopefully something productive will come of it. I wrote this statement out to be press released to the public on my way here. I ordered the deployment over 12 hours ago. Stage one should already be complete:

To: Anyone who reads it.
From: C&C of Dubelco
Statement: The Republic of TechoCheat States has ceased to exist. Dubelco is annexing all lands and resources that belonged to this nation. A contingent is under way to the shores and a pre-emptive force has been dropped in. We now claim this as lands and property of Dubelco. Thank you and have a nice day.

A: I like it. Send it out. I've stepped up the production of our fighter craft at the research center, should be done within a week and stage 4 testing completed.
MCD: Good to know, they will add a good advantage for Spec. Ops.
TM: Anything for me sir?
A: Uhh, no not really, just make sure unrest stays low, and if you see in the news something needs to be done, do it, but for now see you thursday.
TM: Good to hear...

*Tasky walks out*

MCD: Where did you find that guy?
A: Don't ask...

To: COC Fleet entering LETI Region
From: Samsylvannia

Please accept our welcome into the great region of LETI. While you are visiting, you will be escorted by ships and aircraft from the DOS 7th Fleet, from a safe distance of course. Also, while you are here, please do not interfere with affairs regarding certain members of your region. Viert Reich has, without provokation, attacked land belonging to (in no particular order) Spinkoslovakia, Samsylvannia, Mirabar, Disgruntled Postal Men, Crippleslovenia, Carianada, Manarth, Euphoni, and Rialto. We are all technically at a state of war with him. We hope this conflict will be resolved quickly and without loss of life. Please keep your hands in the vehicle until it comes to a complete and total stop. Again, enjoy your stay here in LETI.

*The 106th, 110th, and 115th Fighter Wings begin fueling, Special Forces are put on “Imminent Threat Level,” and the Simpson, Monroe, and VanHouten carrier battle groups are redirected from their current patrols.*

OOC: a lesson to all about stealth aircraft and there uses. As many of you know Stealth aircraft are not invisible to radar, but the cobination of specially designed leading edges, Radar Absorbent Materials, and even jamming, reduces the radar signature of the aircraft. But what a lot of you are not aware of is that Stealth Aircraft almost NEVER fly in formation. They fly solo usually trying to seakout weakpoints in enemy radar coverage(c'mon there are holes in everything, no ones perfect). Then using the reduced chance of detection they try to sneak in. Also there are modern radars that are capable of detecting stealth aircraft, but detection does not necessarily lead to interception. Air-to-air missiles that are fire and forget(AMRAAM) have their own radars that they use to intercept their targets, but these radars for the most part are not powerful enough to keep a lock on a stealth aircraft. Now guided missiles(Sparrow) can be tied in with the more powerful radars that can detect stealth aircraft. But the sparrow has been almost completely been phased out of United States Service. Therefore the wise thing to do would be to close range and dogfight, i'm unsure how the thermals on Stealth Aircraft are insulated and whether or not a Sidewinder can lock on. Also most radars inside of a fighter aircraft cannot detect the stealth aircraft, they simply don't have enough power. Ok i've said my piece, good day to all of you.

* A flock (due to what the radar might see) of F-117 fly into Dubelco air space with the intention of destroying the air defense systems*

**Edited due to a neglect of RP rules **

OOC: I told you I'd get around to it.

IC: 10 miles outside of Dubelcan air space, a patrol(5) of F-22's spot the "flock" of fighters.

Bravo Leader: Bravo 2 this is Bravo 1, can you confirm bogeys out the right side over?
B2: Confirmed F-117's, what shall we do about it sir?
BL: Lets do this by the books, I'm radioing command, but while its happening plot intercept courses.
BL: Fairview Base this is Bravo leader, we have spotted bogeys attempting to penetrate Dubelcan air space, we are moving to intercept. Please advise.

*Fairview base*
Comm Officer: Sir Bravo Flight radios in they spot F-117's and are moving to intercept and request advisement.
Comander: Scramble 3 squadrons into the air, and divert Zeta flight, they are the other closest patrol. Tell Bravo flight to make contact and order a complete withdrawl or they will be shot down. Also raise S.A.M.'s 1-14, and put all bases on the eastern sector on alert, with this hole fiasco with the politicians someone might be trying to take advantage of us.
CommO: Yes sir.

*Bravo Flight*

OOC: Dubelco just one question, your most elite forces are equipped with 80 year old weapons that are known for their jamming problems .45's and BAR's. but your airforce has a brandnew fighter plane. heh, thats weird.

::In the Hence Palace::

Corran: No.

Ritsuko: Don't you get it? They've attacked without reason!

Corran: We don't know that for sure. Why don't we wait untill we have verified reports before we go jumping in head first?

Ritsuko: Because by then it'll be too late! Dorrstein'll get his work done, then run away again. He's like the French!

Corran: Woah. Let's not go THAT far...

::Laura walks into the room::

Laura: You Henceness, we have received a request from Dubelco. They want more F-22s.

Corran: When did we give them F-22s?

Laura: Quite some time ago actually. They were sent before they first started their annexations of DDPP.

Ritsuko: Where have you been? I haven't seen you in forever.

Laura: Umm... around...

Corran: Well ladies, I'll let you discuss things. Untill we get more information, I'm not going to war with anyone. Now if you'll excuse me, there are some MADD reps here with torches and pitchforks, and I have to keep Tempest and Kiyone from arresting all of them before they meet with me. Good day...

OOC: Not happy about this sub buisness but I'll deal with it, shit happens... thanks for giving me some time before hand though.

IC: As the the marines down on deck are serching for the bridge crew one of them see's a counter on one of the control panels counting down, they yell for everyone to get out of the sub, they radio for the helicopters to get away from sub. 4 marines get out from below deck but 5 don't the explosion rips the sub to pieces and some of the marines with it. most of the marines that where on the deck evac on the helicopters or jump in the water.

Dead: 6
Wounded: 4

Shrapnel from the sub rips into one of the helicopters wounding 2 more and the helicopter splashes into the water, everyone makes it out safely and are picked up by other helicopters.

Yeah, thats great, one of their vagabonds can move into the LETI region and fire on ships and a country, and have full support, but we can't defend ourselves..... nice... Ass's... all of them, they do know that we stand directly between them and the rest of Leti right?

Officer: What are your orders sir?

Captain: *thinks* Nothing, we arn't going to do a damn thing, let them fire the first shots.... and then we'll mop them up. Send them a message.. be cordial...

*Mirabarian newsbreak*
Newscaster: The WOPR (War Operations Planned Response) defense project has been finished, a computer defense network has been established throughout the majority of LETI. The designer, Dr. Stephen Falken, has been unreachable for comment, but lead technician Paul Richter has a description for the program.
Paul Richter: The WOPR spends all its time thinking about WWIII. 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, it plays an endless series of war games, using all available information on the state of the world. The WOPR has already fought WWIII as a game, time and time again. It estimates enemy responses to our responses to their responses and so on. Estimates damage, counts the dead, then it looks for ways to improve its score.
Newscaster: So as you can see the region seems to have a sound defensive system in place. Gen. Jack Beringer has also announced reports of mechanized units. We have a clip from the interview now.
Gen. Jack Beringer:: Slightly heavier set man, balding, and with a Texan accent appears on the screen dressed in Mirabarian fatigues:: With the advent of the new WOPR defense system, we have begun construction of mechanized walkers with twin .50 Cal. MP-3s mounted on its upper section. The robot is remotely controlled in safety back in Crystal Palace, and if needed, the WOPR computer can recommend appropriate counter measures. Currently three battalions of the walkers are opperational and in full service.
Newscaster: As you can see, defense is starting to take a huge rise in the area. More information will be available in our later newscast. *End newsbreak*

Scout: But two days ride.

Conn: Then these ships are only the first of them.

Advisor: Perhaps we should go from this place while we can.

Lt. General Hammond: We could be safe in the mountains.

*The gathered advisors and the emperor begin arguing.*

Advisor: Yes! To the mountains! We must flee! They'll take our souls!

*BOOOM!!!! Everyone looks to the palace wall, where General Murdock is standing with a smouldering shotgun.*

Murdock: Go ahead and run. Run home and cry to mama! Me? I'm through runnin'!!! I say we stay and fight.

Conn: *Takes a step forward.* How will we stop an army of the CoC at our castle walls? How will you fight that?! With more words? Most of our people have already fled. We are but forty men!

Murdock: Then we'll get Emperor Ed and his men to fight with us.

Conn: We shall not stand in battle alongside the likes of him! Our honor will not allow it.

Murdock: Then you'll die. Honor and all. Now...who's with me?

*The group is silent. From the back, a dark cloaked figure who has not spoken yet looks up.*

Dark Figure: I'll stand by you.

Advisor: *Steps forward* You can count on my steel.

Hammond: And mine!

*She walks off to retrive her shoe... and then walks into another room*

*The skanks storm the beaches of Dubelco, wearing their trench coats and miniskirts*

Tracey: All right, women. Let's head for Dubelcan headquarters, wherever that might be.
Alyssa: Um, not so fast, Tracey. Empress Jessica called. Our orders are changed again.
Tracey: When did you get a comm from her? You were in the Dubelcan radio center.
Alyssa: It's from my Skank Patch.
Tracey: What's that?
Alyssa: It's a hidden radio. You don't want to know where on my body I keep it.
Tracey: I can only guess. With all that skin you show, where could it be hiding? You're such a skank.
Alyssa: I know. Isn't it great?

*they laugh*

Tracey: Empress Jessica's right, though. We're not needed or wanted here, and there's too much conflict for us to do anything worthwhile. Let's get back to Counterpoint.
Alyssa: All right. Round up the Samsylvannian Task Force. But see if you can't get any more guys from the Dubelcan army, okay?
Tracey: Right, Alyssa. Okay, women, let's see how many men we can skankify, and then let's get out of here!

I just want to go back to sleep... but I better get out of here before I die or starvation or something.

*she crawls out of the wreckage and starts walking, looking for a hospital*

*Empress Carolyn is in the Edenstein Palace with Emperor Ed*

Ed: May I get you something to drink, my dear?
Carolyn: *laughs* Edenstein vodka will be fine. It's been a long time since I've had any.
Ed: Going for the strong stuff, are we?
Carolyn: Indeed... I have to, with all that's been going on.
Ed: You think you've got it bad... check out the damage reports from the attack on my sub. *he shows her some papers*
Carolyn: Wow... um, I have no idea what any of that means.
Ed: Let's just say it's bad.
Carolyn: Yeah. Umm... but you're happy I'm here, right?
Ed: Why wouldn't I be?
Carolyn: Well, you know, me being your ex and all.
Ed: *sighs* Come on... you've got to know I've always loved you.
Carolyn: What??
Ed: I was only with Laura to take away the pain from losing you.
Carolyn: I don't believe that... I've seen the pictures.
Ed: No, seriously... it was mostly something to get the papers all worked up... it wasn't even a real relationship. But you're with that Bashir guy...
Carolyn: Oh. Well, he's dead.
Ed: Oh. Well, that's good.
Carolyn: Yeah, sorta.

*they look at each other*

Ed: Well... then now what do we do?

I just want to go back to sleep... but I better get out of here before I die or starvation or something.

*she crawls out of the wreckage and starts walking, looking for a hospital*

OOC: Wait a minute, back that truck up. When/why did she crashland, last I knew she was on a boat with other people in one of my port towns. Did I miss something? And how did the skanks get past my patrols of ship? My guards and what not? Not to complain but did I miss a page of text?

Near the port a squad of men on shore leave wander the streets and head down towards a beach to relax and hopefully attract soem fine ladies. They wander and see some than come-hither women downt he beach near a landing craft. Being well trained marines they try to resist but are drawn to them by thinking with "other" parts of their body. The ladies simply motion to them and they hop in the boat.

*Somewhere else a good distance away.*

A squad of men in a hummer are driving down the beach searching for the downed plane. They come across a beautiful women walking along the beach dressed in a diplomatic uniform with Carianada colors.

Guard2: Who is that? It looks like a Cariandan diplomat. Shes just strolling along the beach, the sun does she radiate her beauty. Is that Empress Carolyn?
Guard1: Put your tongue back in your mouth son, and thats not Empress Carolyn, shes the most beautiful thing you'd ever see and you'd know it. Slow down.......pardon me mam but do you need a lift?

*Official Statement from the office of Emperor Edward Mikhael Romanov*
Re: Scandal

The claims of a relationship between General Sianoodle and myself are completly and totally fabricated. Although Ms. Sianoodle is a very wonderful and talented young lady there is no basis for these allegations. I feel that it is more likely that someone at the LETI News organization had to much time on their hands and was itching for a story.

Futhermore, I feel that this is a complete waste of time on the part of LETI News, considering the more important things that are happening in our great region.

Emperor Edward Mikhael Romanov

*Emperor Ed hands Carolyn a glass of Vodka then sits down next to her, he's just about to say something when Jane pages him*

Jane: Emperor, Donald Rumpsfeel here to see you....

Ed: Jane, you ignorent slut...... *mumbles something* Send him in....

Jane: Yes your assalence.....

Ed: Hold that thought my dear.... *he stands up and straightens out his uniform as Rumpsfeel walks in* What do you want?

Rumpsfeel: Have you seen the papers? We already put out a statement, but the people are going to want to hear it from you... *Hands Ed a Leti Newspaper*

Ed: Well they got my goodside, thats for sure.... I'll give a press conference tomorrow.

Rumpsfeel: You really didn't do anything with her did you??

Ed: OF COURSE NOT!!!!

Rumpsfeel: Ok....... *shrugs* We'll have to work on damage control.. who could of leaked this story?

Ed: I don't know...

Rumpsfeel: Ok, well, We'll get working on it.

Ed: Whatever...

*Rumpsfeel turns and leaves the office, Ed goes back over next to Carolyn and sits down, a little closer to her then before*

Ed: You know I didn't do anything with her right?

Carolyn: Well, the picture was pretty convincing...

Ed: Ehh, its something our boys down in psych came up with, you gotta give the masses a little bit of controversy every once in a while.

Carolyn: I suppose..... *she sits straight in the chair and sips on her drink* Who do you like better?

Ed: You of course! Why do you think I have you here? I wouldn't want to see avalanche get you.

Carolyn: I suppose, you couldn't even show up in Carianada to pick me up. *takes another sip of her drink*

Ed: I'm sorry, I'm in the middle of a crisis now.....

Carolyn: I know...

Ed: So, that Bashir guy.......... what was going on with that before he.. met an untimely death?

::HO Channel 2 News::

Diane: And now, breaking news! SCANDAL in LETI!

Tom: Hey now Diane, I thought we weren't going to speak about our...

Diane: Shh! No, this scandal concerns Emeper Ed and General Siannodel. The Emperor has already made a statement, and now we bring you to a press conference in Yggdrasil Square where General Siannodel is making a statement.

::The screen flashes to the balcony in Yggdrasil Square. Laura is standing at the front, with Holy Emperor Corran and General Yamamoto behind her::


Laura: Ladies and Gentlemen of LETI, friends from other regions, and CoC. Rumours of my having an affair with Emperor Ed are completely false. Nothing has ever happened between myself and him. I can imagine that the story was fabricated sometime while the Emperor was incapacitated in the hospital after the tragic shuttle explosion in Edenstein. I personally stayed in his hospital room while his orderly was away and watched over him. Since when does this turn into an affair? I believe the story was fabricated by Tom Brokejaw in an effort to get himself another Pulitzer. One need only view an old press conference in which questions of ourselves were followed by his mention of said prize.

I am appalled that LETI News, a usually respectable organization, has printed this story without verification. ::She shakes her head sadly:: With so much going on in the region, did they really have to resort to such a farce. A story such as this may be 'news' in a tabloid, but it has no place amongst a real news source. I will field a few questions now. Right, Corran said to start with you. ::points to Elly::

Elly: Elhaym van Houten, HO Channel 2 news. Who would've fabricated those photographs. Our own lab technicians looked at them and they appear to be real. I admit that they aren't as good as true specialists, but it does seem to be authentic.

Laura: Good question. It's no doubt that whoever made the photograph took the time to go over all the details. I am very certain however that when our own specialists analyze the photo they will find it to be a fabrication. Next, how about you?

Reporter 2: Sy Phil Liss, for the Cripple Chronicle. From observatiosn made by most people you and the Emperor seemed to be very close. Something like this seems like it could very well be true.

Laura: Well of course. That's why people are believing the story. The Emperor is a good man, and I have the utmost respect for him. I've worked with him on many occasions. But that's where things stop. And next, how about you?

Dark cloaked reporter: Yes. What about the person who supposedly walked in on you guys?

Laura: What? What are you talking about?

Reporter: My sources tell me someone walked in on you guys.

Laura: Well they're full of *bleeped by tv station* And who are you anyway? You didnt' identify yourself. Hey, where are you going? ::The reporter begins to run away:: What the hell? ::shrugs:: Well that's all the time we have for now. I'll make another statement later when the lab results come back... ::She exits. The screen flashes back to the studio::

Tom: Well I certainly see where the reporters could get their ideas from. I'd hit that!

Diane: So would I! ::The two look at each other with wide eyes, then shake their heads::

Tom: And now sports!

Dubelco's keen watch has since noticed that both The Federation of The Council of Clan and The Disputed Territories of Macintoshia ceased to exist. Therefore, we are once again annexing these lands. Prempitve forces are arriving as we speak. The waters will be reinforced by both Dubelcan troops, and Zembeck Alliance troops in accordance with the Bulger 15 Accord if they wish. With the recent developements between these great nations, we hope that these new lands will further all of our prosperity. Thank you and have a good night.

Therefore by special decree of the Fooder all lands associated with The Holy Empire of The Silent Lord are now property of the Republic of Pax Germania.

*Any nation in LETI that wishes to sign the pending Bulger Fifteen Accord with Pax Germania should send a private telegram stating your intentions. A draft of the accord will then be sent to you for review. Signing will be announced at a later date.*

Ritsuko: This is odd. Since the scandal broke open there's been no news... at all.

Maison: Very perplexing indeed Ms. Yamamoto!

Ritsuko: Hmm... CoC has basically sut up. In fact, all of LOTI is in a virtual stasis. Meanwhile LETI has been much more laid back. Since the annexation CF of Dubelco there's been nothing...

Maison: Perhaps you're being too paranoid! It may just be that things are finally calming down.

Ritsuko: Unlikely... Especially with Dorrstein... What is that little #$%@ up to now?

Re: Annexation

Statement: The nation of Dubelco humbly apologizes for any incovenience caused by our actions. As a fledgling nation in a land of superpowers, we thought it necessary to gain land and establish a foothold. The only real resistance that was met was the unfounded attack by The Fiefdom of Spinkoslovakia, which has been put down thanks to military forces(or whenever they respond?).
With the acquisition of suitable lands, we have simpy taking advantage of the open lands. With the new ties formed however, we need not worry about annexing anymore land, others will do it for us. In response to being stretched thin: we are at a more fragile network than allowable standards, but with an ever growing military, and a decent naval acquisition, we have been taking precautions.
The annexations of lands will cease, and military expansion will not be as ever prevelant, unless anything along the lines of annexation is taken against us, but that of course will never happen. Thank you and have a pleasant tomorow.

Memo: Former Lands of Me_262
To: Dubelco, and all LETI
From: Lord Simshauser

"While there have been counterattacks upon the Spinkoslovakian forces attempting to take over the former lands of Me_262, more forces have been brought in to replenish those lost. We are currently moving along the border and pushing forward. Spinkoslovakia is getting to large for her current borders and is in dire need of the land. We have every intention of not leaving. Evacuation is not an option due to overcrowding."

OOC: Leti News left an an unfinished Rp with CoC, They never stated if any of the 12 Amraam missiles Hit their targets(The C-1B). Someone is still playing that nation and the RP is still ongoing.

Premiere: Hans Gorebl
Regarding: Dubelcan Annexation

“Although no formal endorsement of an alliance between Pax Germania and Dubelco has taken place, the Republic of Pax Germania will honor the most recent acquisitions of Dubelco. Carrier groups Frink, Bouviet, and Wolfcastle are en route to the conflict as I speak. Also the entire First Air Force has received flight orders and is currently in the process of mobilizing. However, from this date forward we will not recognize any further land annexations by The Holy Empire of Dubelco. Thank you and good night.”

*In Edenstein waters, task force one attached to Legion Fleet 7 moves into posistion, the ES: Debian, a Soyouz III Battleship has been retro fitted with 3x3 Batteries of 18 inch guns, the same ones that will be on the new class of battleship that is being built in Raleigh, Admiral Ulonov is seen walking along the deck with some minor dignitaries from Edenstein, General Ritsuko from Henceland Omega, and various members of the press.*

Ulonov: Today, we are test fireing the new guns that will be used in the battleship that is being built in Raliegh. These are 18 inch guns that can hurl an armor piercing shell 25 miles and can still penetrate over 30 feet of reinforced concrete. *Waits for chatter to stop before continueing* This will be the standard main armament on all of the new battleships. We will be doing two test fireings today. The first one will be a hardened concrete bunker along the shore line in Edenstein, aproximatly 20 Miles away, and a obsolete vessel 22 miles away. Each target will be recieving a full broadside of the main guns to test accuracy and power.

*they continue walking into the ship, and onto the bridge where a few televisions have been set up to show the two targets, Captain Antilles salutes Ulonov and grabs a chart for him to sign*

Antilles: Sir, we are ready to fire on your orders.

Ulonov: Move the guns into posistion then fire when ready, *he turns to the dignitaries* Get ready for some fireworks.

*the guns on the battleship come alive, and swing into posistion to fire on the target*

*over the radio* Guns in fireing posistion, ready to fire,

Antilles: Fire

*All of a sudden the ship gives a shake and the guns come alive. A defening noise is produced from all 9 of the 18 inch guns fireing in unison, sending their shells towards the targets, On the TV the people watch, and suddenly, the concrete bunker is enveloped in fire as the shells hit their target. A few moments pass and the smoke clears, they wait for a damager report*

*Over the radio* Target is destroyed, 7 Shells found their mark, 1 shell went left and long, 1 shell short of target*

Antilles: Excellent.. *Turns to Ulonov* Not bad for the first time out sir.
Ulonov: Not bad.... reload and prepare to fire on the second target.
Antilles: Yes sir.
Ulonov: *To the people* This next target is a Faragunt Coontz Class Destroyer that has been decomissoned and is being sent to the bottom to form an artificial reef. We want to assess the killing power of these guns on ship to ship warfare...

*The guns move into posistion once again, facing 180 degrees from their previous posistion*

*over the radio* Guns ready to fire sir.
Antilles: Fire

*the guns come alive again, with the same power and loudness that they had before. The shells speed towards their target. On the TV they see the ship in calme see's and then the shells hit, the Destroyer is enveloped in smoke and flame as the shells hit it and pierce the deck and belt armor*

*Over the radio from and observer ship* It looks like 6 of the shells hit the ship. The destroyer took 3 direct hits in the center of it, 1 stern, 2 aft sections, the other 3 splashed down about a hundred yards short but on target. The destroyer has some gapping holes in it and it is listing to starbord pretty bad. We feel that it will sink within the hour.

Antilles: Sir, it appears we still have some tests to run on the guns.
Ulonov: Yes, but overall the tests where sucessful, they achieved their goals.... *he turns to the gathering of people* Any questions?

::Ritsuko rubs her chin and nods:: Not bad...

"Yes, Donald Samson Pax Press. What top speed, and what kind of armor will this new battleship have?"

".........Ulonov: *To the people* This next target is a Faragunt Coontz Class Destroyer that has been decomissoned and is being sent to the bottom to form an artificial reef. We want to assess the killing power of these guns on ship to ship warfare... "


OOC: like swatting a fly with a wrecking ball...........

ooc: isn't it great though.. :-)

OOC: You know Secondary Armament on Battleships is meant for destroyers. Not the Big guns.

OOC: If I want to hit a destroyer with the big guns, then I'm gonna hit a destroyer with the big guns. End of story. besides it was for delegates, and minor dignitaries and the press, you want to give them a show.....

OOC: then why didn't you show them something impressive, hit an old Battleship or something like a north dakota or an Iowa.

Admiral: How far are we from our destination?

Officer: It should be coming into view momentarily sir.

Admiral: These isles have not been inhabited for centuries they say. They are ripe for the picking.

Officer: With all due respect Admiral, do you realize the backlash this will cause? They're not going to take this lying down.

Admiral: Yes, my boy, I know. Don't worry, Gryposis is a brillant man in that feeble body. He has a plan. He always has a plan........

*An island appears over the horizon*

Officer #2: COMING UPON HER! LANDING IN FIVE MINUTES!!!!!!

*Imperial Palace of Crippleslovenia. Emperor R. Thro Gryposis sitting behind his desk, awaiting the latest news from Admiral Bifida*

Gryposis: Why hasn't he called yet?!!!! 1, 2, 3, CALL!!!!!! *Looks @ phone*

DAMN IT!!!!!!!!

*Phone rings*

Gryposis: Hello?

Admiral: Hello sir, Operation: Dance On In is a complete success. We have successfully secured two islands. We have sent a team each to investigate the terrain. There is some interesting news.

Gryposis: Oh?

Admiral: Yes, it turns out the islands were not completely uninhabited. We have met a contingency from the surviving druidic tribe on the western isle. We are trying to find an interpreter that knows their ancient language. They don't appear to be hostile. I'll report personally when I have more news.

Gryposis: Excellent work Admiral. I can see old Schister wasn't a fool in choosing his miliary leaders. The navy will be receiving an extra chunk of the budget next fiscal year I assure you.

Admiral: Thank you sir.

*hangs up*

*Looks up at photo of young Gryposis being pushed by a young Corran back in their years @ Future Emperor Summer Camp*

Gryposis: Sorry old buddy, that's the way the game is played.........

*on the battleship*
Ulonov: Well, because of the sheer mass of this new ship it will have 2 nuclear reactors at the heart of it, we are estimating a top speed of 42 knots, and at this time, specifications on the armor are classified.

*Late night over mainland Henceland Omega. All is quiet on a coastal air base. An officer on patrol sees lights approaching from over the DDR Isles.*

Officer: HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Radar Operator: SEVERAL F-18s AND F-22s, CAN'T TELL HOW MANY QUITE YET, BUT THEY'RE COMING IN FAST!!!!!!!!!!!

*A massive air strike over the base begins*

::On the Southern Divine Druidic Island, at the secret hidden base, an Officer hears a distress call over the line::

Officer: WTF? What's going on?

General: Call up the radar... HOLY... ahem... Umm, this is interesting. Patch me through to Fei Fong Wong... ::The General watis a moment::
Hello, may I speak with General Yamamoto? Oh... I see. Well patch me through. ::waits a moment longer:: Yes, General Yamamoto, we have a problem...

*On the bridge of the DSS Black Pearl, the massive flagship of the Samsylvannian Fleet. They are a part of a combined Carrier/Amphibious Assault Group. An ensign brings a dispatch to Fleet Admiral Maximus, standing on the observation deck in the light of the not yet risen sun.*

Maximus: So....it has begun. Smell the sea air, ensign. Savor it. This is the calm before the storm. Soon we will be fighting for our very lives. But now...now is the magic hour. *He stands motionless for a moment, inhaling and exhaling.* Launch the strike force immediately. Bring the fleet about. All ahead flank, set course for the East and South DDR Islands. They will pay for what they have done...

*A strike force of 24 SAB-9N Attack Aircraft, 8 EA-6B Prowlers, and 8 SAB-5N air superiority fighters fly towards Henceland Omega. The Prowlers fly ahead of the attack force and begin jamming a slice of the HO air defence net, launching HARM anti-radar missles at them.*

::In Edenstein, Ritsuko receives a call::

Ritsuko: Hello? WHAT?!?!?!?! You've GOT to be kidding! What are the damage reports so far?

Officer: Well they have control of DDR North and West, and have massed an air raid on Grahf Military Base. Our fighters have scrambled, but they're hopelessly outnumbered by the F-18s and F-22s.

Ritsuko: WTF?!?! Our old comrade? Does Corran know?

Officer: Not yet, he's my next call.

Ritsuko: Well this is one case where I'm going over his shoulder. Prepare for immediate strikeback. I'll make the call to Sabrewulf as well. I'll call up the other Generals. We'll make our stand...

::On DDR South, the underground military base suddenly comes to life for the first time in almost exactly 60 years. Luckily, the base has been kept up to the times, and beyond. Deep in the bowels of the base, fighters, bombers, and military vehicles prepare to launch along with the secret hidden task force acquired only a few short months before...::

*DSS Queen Ann's Revenge II, Flagship for CVBG 11, which is escorting the COC fleet.*

Captain: *Answers radio call* What? Why?...Oh...right away, sir. Okay boys, we're gonna have some fun. We're right in between them and the mainland...perfect. We'll be able to intercept anything they sling at us. Order the AWACs and Prowlers to put out enough power to fry the circuits of anything that gets too close. Tell the Steinway to launch all her Tomahawks at them. No longer will we be threatened by the FOOTCOC.

*The E-2, E-767, and 2 EA-6Bs start jamming the CoC Group. The DSS Steinway launches all 24 TASMs towards them. Extra CAP flights are in the air and on alert.*

*DDR West Isle, an interpreter has begun communicating with the druidic chief and his men. Talks seem friendly.*

Interpreter: The chief says there is an old tale of a time when the druids still lived on the southern island. According to the story, men wearing strange clothes, presumably HO military, showed up one day and began building in secret. The druids were forced to leave the island and move to the western island. They have been here ever since.

Bifida: Do they understand we have no interest in hurting them?

Interp: We told them we are enemies of the strange men they speak of. The chief has pledged his support.

Bifida *chuckling*: With what? Spears and pitchforks?

Interp: Actually sir, they can give special help.

*Chief walks up with a large ancient book*

Chief *Through interpreter*: This is our ancient book of rites and incantations. In it we have many enchantments we created long ago to protect us from intruders. We know we are powerless against the strange enemy and their boom-sticks, this is our only resource.....

*Imperial Palace, Gryposis getting an update from Admiral Bifida*

Gryposis: Black magic eh? We may need it because I know better than to underestimate HO, but we'll hold off on that. Make sure the druids are treated well and not disturbed, but keep an eye on them. Also, check on their story about the southern isle. I wonder if HO's been hiding something all these years........

::Radar operator at B4U Military Base on DDR South::

Operator: What the hell's going on? I'm picking up shots of Crippled soldiers wandering around on DDR West at random...

Chief Intelligence Officer: Oh, don't worry about that. I know what's going on. It's nothing to worry about... aside of coruse from the fact that they've taken over...

::A PA voice booms throughout all of B4U Base::

Voice: Warning! Warning! Switching to ONI Mode! Repeat, switching to ONI Mode! All personnell reoport and receive orders immediately. Base conversion set to standby.

Operator: Base conversion?!?

Officer: Wow, I never thought I'd see the day. Wait, what's that?

Operator: A call from General Siannodel. She requests being patched through to Lt. General Skellutore. Patching now...

Officer: That means its only a matter of time before base conversion is initiated. I only hope the pilots are prepared for it...

::On Omega Island Grahf Base is caught completely by surprise. Nearby the base a small girl named Tiph is walking along the beach with her mother Michelle::

Tiph: What's that?

Michelle: Oh it's the Steel Angels dear! Can't you see the way they fly overh... wait a minute. Those aren't the Seel Angels! ::Crippleslovenian F-18s escort bombers over the island, dropping their payloads on the base and surrounding areas. Many bombs find their targets, crippling the Air Base, the major base for the helicoptors and special force wings of aircraft. The surrounding city of Alpha is also hit. On the beach, Tiph and her mommy Michelle watch in horror as the red glow from the bombs gets closer and closer. Tiph rushes to her mother's arms and starts crying::

Michelle: It's... It's... Crippleslovenians?

Tiph: I thought they were our FRIENDS!

Michelle: I guess we were wrong... Goodbye my dear. ::A large bomb is dropped along the beach near a storage facility. The girsl are instantly killed, as are many other Hence citizens in the city of Alpha::

Malvin: Hey what's that?
David: I wanted Jim to see that.
Malvin: Wow! Where'd you get this?
David: I was trying to break into Protovision. I wanted to see the program for their new games.
::Jim starts taking paper from Malvin::
Malvin: Wait Jim I'm not through yet.
::Jim rips paper from Malvin's hands::
Jim: Remember when you told me to tell you when you were acting rudey and insensitvey? ::Malvin nods:: You're doing right now. ::Looks over list:: This didn't come from Protovision.
Malvin: You bet it didn't! Tell him where it did come from!
David: I told you already.
Malvin: Looks military to me. Probably classified too.
David: But if it's military, then why does it have games like checkers, and backgammon?
Jim: Maybe because those are games that teach basic strategy.
David: Jim, how do I get into that system? I want to play those games.
Malvin: You're not supposed to see any of that stuff. That system probably contains a new data encryption algorithm. You'll never get in there.
David: I don't believe that any system is totaly secure. I bet you Jim could get in.
Malvin: I bet ya he couldn't!
Jim: Well you'll never get in through the front line security but you might look for a back door.
Malvin: I can't believe it Jim, that girl's standing right over there and you're telling him about our back door?
Jim::angry:: Mr. Potato Head! Mr. Potato Head! Back doors are not secrets!
Malvin: But you're giving away all our best tricks.
Jim: They're not tricks.
David: What's a back door?
Jim: Whenever I design a system I always put a simple password that only I know about. That way, whenever I want to get back in I can bypass any security the have added on. That's basically what it is.
David: Yeah?
Jim: Ok. You really want to get in. Find out as much as you can about the guy who designed the system.
David: Come on. I don't even know the guy's name.
Malvin: Boy, are you guys dumb! You guys are so dumb, I've got this thing all figured out by myself.
David: Oh yeah Malvin, how would you do it?
Malvin: The first game on the list. Go right through Falken's Maze.

::Somewhere in Windurst Woods::

Bolts of lightning streak through the forest hitting trees and making them explode.

Cid Highwind: Haha YES, it works. We have successfully created a working prototye for our new lightning cannon.

Barret Wallace::Looks down at the cannon still in his right hand:: You're right, this thing really is powerful, and there is virtually no electrical feedback. ::Barret's hair is all standing on end, and he has a slight static shock when he shakes Cid's hand::

::A figure cloaked in darkness watches this display, and walks out into the testing area clapping his hands together, the metal left hand leaving a distinct metallic ring in the heavy air::
Figure: Well done Cid, you have out done yourself this time. At least this prototype didn't explode like the last four did.

::Barret looks nervously at Cid::

Cid: Well, well Mr. Valentine, a pleasure seeing you out on this fine day.

Valentine: Please Cid, you know me, call me Vincent.
Cid: Sorry sir, force of habit from the old days, besides I fixed the problem of the unit storing too much charge by grounding out the excess into the battery so it will recharge itself as it is used. However, it can only recharge itself ten times with the personal field unit. The walker versions should run as long as there is power to the machine.

Vincent: Gret, what is the effective range on these things so far?
Cid: Well we have an ideal range of 95 meters, with a maximum effective range of 120 meters for the walkers. The troop varient runs at ideal 9, maximmun effective range is 10 meters.
Vincent: Verry good, you should get cracking on getting these things produced for our troops.
Cid: Already on it sir.

*Edenstein Channel 2 News, Starts Now*

*The camera opens up on Stephanie Schuster sitting at the Edenstein News Desk*

Schuster: Goodevening Edenstein, I am Stephanie Schuster and this is your news for Tuesday November 4th.

We start off tonight with an announcement from the computer command center of the Department of War. Earlier today, Linus Torvalds, director of computer warfare, and simulation annouced today that they where hooking up 3 linux super clusters to the WOPR defence grid.

*TV Flashes earlier next to one of the linux clusters where Torvalds is speaking.*

Linus: Theis is a great day in defence and theoretical warfare for Edenstein, Mirabar, and LETI in general, we have connected 3 of our 32 server clusters into the WOPR to start with testing. The WOPR system was able to process 3 Terabytes of information per second. We have doubled this to 6 with the addition of our servers. If tests go succesfully we will commit more computer power to it.

*TV Flashes back to schuster*

Schuster: Tests on the new system will continue for three weeks.
Tests on the new battleship guns for Edenstein new class of battleships went succesfully yesterday. The guns destroyed both targets that where set up for it.

Today in the city of Santa Cruz, protests where staged outside of various government facilities about the supposed "Evil Regime" that the Emperor has created.

*Screen goes to random protestors outside one of the government buildings holding signs, then it flashes to a Tall bald man and a midget*

Jorgenson: The emperor has created an Axis of Evil and immorality that is plauging our great nation and is corrupting our youngins!
*the midget runs out with a broom and starts smacking mimes dressed up as the Emperor*
As my little friend has clearly shown, we need to take a firm stand against this tyranny.

*flashes back to the news*

Schuster: The protests where kept civil and peaceful, no arrests where made. In closing tonight, Edenstein news wishes to say this to LETI news.

*she looks down at her papers then looks back into the camera holding a LETI News logo*

We interrupt this broadcast of Knight Rider to bring you an address from the Emperor.

*Emperor Conn comes to the podium.*
Conn: *Softly, in a sad voice.*
People of Samsylvannia, it is my duty this evening to inform you of events taking place in our region. As you know, several weeks ago, the Federation of of the Council of Clan seized and conquered the locks between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. They declared that they would decided who and what would use the locks.*The Emperor looks straight into the camera* For this they gave no reasonable explanation.
*With growing passion.* Soon thereafter they closed the locks, preventing some of our fleet from returning home for some time. They proceeded to widen them, allowing capital ships to pass through. For this they gave no reasonable explanation.
*The Emperor now appears to be quite angry.* Once completed, CoC proceeded to move a fleet of ships into Lake Erie. Intelligence suggests that they may be armed with weapons of mass destruction in the form of nuclear tipped cruise missiles. For this they gave no reasonable explanation.
*With a thunder in his voice rarely heard by the people of the DOS.* We cannot allow this tyranny to go unanswered! We will no longer feel we are under the thumb of CoC!! We will not allow this charade to continue!!!
*Gaining control of himself.* It is for these reasons that I have ordered the pre-emptive neutralization of what can only be called a hostile invasion force. The operations are taking place as we speak.
We all know that CoC is part of a fairly powerful alliance of nations. However, their treaty only covers offensive operations against member nations. Only a fool could construe these events as an offensive attack. I have ordered these defensive measures to remove this unignorable threat from our lands. I am supremely confident that we will prevail. May whatever God you believe in bless the men and women of our military and our country. Thank you and goodnight. Oh, and we're helping Crippleslovenia conquer the DDR Islands. Goodnight.

*Screen goes dark.*

::In Edenstein Ritsuko writes a message to Ulonov. She leaves it in the hands of Edenstein dignitaries and walks over to the helipad where Mr. T is waiting for her::

Ritsuko: (on the phone) Yes, within the next few hours make sure we can launch a counterattack from Sabrewulf. What are the damage reports from Grahf base?

Officer: Well sir, almost the entire base was leveled. Just as we were evacuating the base, Samsylvannian planes made a strafing run, apparantly on their way to DDR East. We scrambled a few fighters, but most of our people were killed.

Ritsuko: That's terrible. Any numbers yet?

Officer: We're still compiling reports Sir... er, Ma'am.

Ritsuko: Sir is fine. Any reports from B4U?

Officer: They've gone to Oni Mode. Awaiting orders.

Ritsuko: Excellent. We'll see what happens...

*LETI Newsbreak*

We take you now to the Imperial Palace of Crippleslovenia for an official statement by Emperor R. Thro Gryposis III concerning the attacks on Henceland Omega.

Gryposis: Ladies, gentlemen and cripples of LETI. We are in a great moment of turmoil. At 12:30AM CST, Crippleslovenian and Samsylvannian combined forces began an invasion of the Divine Druidic Religion, or DDR, Islands and a simultaneous bombing of the Grahf Military Base in Henceland Omega. Some have begun the question our actions. I have one simple word to all of you, Imperialism. Ever since the conquering of Klan Mountain and Proenzastan, Crippleslovenia has wanted to continue to flex our muscles and expand the empire. The DDR islands, uninhabited for 1,000 years, was ripe for colonization. The only reason for the attack on Henceland Omega's mainland was to disable *chuckles* their counterstrike force.

People of LETI, I have no desire to rule the world. I want to only give the mighty empire of Crippleslovenia a proper expanse. I have no desire for the mainland of Henceland Omega. All I hope to gain a proper chunk of LETI.

To Emperor Corran, I would like to state this: I am willing to negotiate at any time. I am no fool though. I know you will not go without a fight, and I respect that. Also know that when all is said is done, all innocents who are killed in this war will be commerated by Crippleslovenia. However, do not mistaken my concern for HO citizens as a weakness. I am more than willing to continue to attack relentlously until I get what I came for.

Thank you and may the Grand Wheelchair Shine Upon You All.

Corran: My fellow Hencemen, tonight we have been betrayed by one of our old comrades. Gryposis has caught us completely by surprise. It also saddens me to hear that Sammsyvannia has joined on their side. Worse yet, this invasion was done not in the name of revenge, defense, or an old rivalry, but in the name of Imperialism. Aboslutely no regards were given to our nation. In the attack on Grahf base, stray bombs devastated parts of Alpha, killing innocent Hencemen. Our lamentations go out to the families and friends of the brave soliders who perished in the bombings and the innocents caught in the middle. ::The crowd stirs with emotion::

'Now called upon are we to fight an unholy foe. Once more into the fray, my brethren, we must go! Though many stand against us, we still stand and fight! None shall defeat us, for we are Hencemen of the Light!' The ancient lore holds true today! As of tonight, we officially declare war on Crippleslovenia and Sammsylvania. ::The crowd stirs:: In the words of the ancient druids, 'Onward to death! Onward to victory!' ::The crowd begins to cheer, touched by the words of the ancient druids of teh DDR Islands that are now being attacked:: Those men and women who serve our great nation shall not die in vain! We will bring down our enemies, and emerge as the victors in glory rivaled only by the Divine Druids of so long ago. Good night my good people, and God be with us all! ::The crowd erupts into tumultuous applause, and leaves with a sense of pride. Corran stands and smiles at the crowd, then bows and exits into the palace::

*All over the LETI Region, the official Edenstein Seal appears, and then Emperor Ed sitting at his desk pops on the screen*

Emperor Ed: Goodevening LETI, I come before you tonight with a great weight on my heart, two of our allies, both signers of the treaty of linux, have launched unprovoked attacks upon Henceland Omega, one of our closest allies in this region. Once more this region is plunged into war by the imperialistic aims of a tin-pot dictator. This can not go unchallenged, and Edenstein will not go quietly into the night, and watch as our allies are unmercifully attacked. We pledge our full support to any needs that Henceland Omega, the people, or Emperor Corran need.

*he looks down at some notes, then looks back up*

Earlier today, Edenstein entered into the Bulger 15 accords. Before we even knew of this travisty. But, as our first offcal act, Edenstein officialy condems and lodges an official protest to the acts of Crippleslavnia, and Samsylvania, both signing members of the Bulger 15 accords. These acts of imperialisim and warmongering will not be tolerated by Edenstein. I strongly urge other member nations, and other nations in LETI to comeout and show their opposistion to these aggressive acts. These unprovoked attacks must not be left to continue.

That is all tonight, pray to any deity that you like, and keep the soldiers in your thoughts. Goodnight.

*The screen flashes off*

:twisted: Hello :twisted:

For the next 2 weeks The Region of HeavyArmsMetal will be taking band submissions for the first annual LETAISTOCK!! It does not matter which type of music the band plays, just as long as each region looking to submit a band only submits one band. Our entertainment commitie will come up with the venue when we have all the submissions. They are not sure on the actual date of LETISTOCK but a tentative date is around the begining of December. Remember that every region looking to submit a band must only submit one. Thank you for your time. LETISTOCK ROCKS MY SOCKS!!

* The news hits the headquarters of TRA. Dorrstein and the other leaders sit and discuss these new claims. *

Spokesperson: We, the members of The Reich Alliance find that CoC actions were not an agressive move. Therefore the attack made on CoC by Samsylvannia were not defensive since there was no request made to have the fleet moved. Citizens of Samsylvannia, we pity you.

We interrupt this broadcast of Knight Rider to bring you an address from the Emperor.

*Emperor Conn comes to the podium.*
Conn: *Softly, in a sad voice.*
People of Samsylvannia, it is my duty this evening to inform you of events taking place in our region. As you know, several weeks ago, the Federation of of the Council of Clan seized and conquered the locks between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. They declared that they would decided who and what would use the locks.*The Emperor looks straight into the camera* For this they gave no reasonable explanation.
*With growing passion.* Soon thereafter they closed the locks, preventing some of our fleet from returning home for some time. They proceeded to widen them, allowing capital ships to pass through. For this they gave no reasonable explanation.
*The Emperor now appears to be quite angry.* Once completed, CoC proceeded to move a fleet of ships into Lake Erie. Intelligence suggests that they may be armed with weapons of mass destruction in the form of nuclear tipped cruise missiles. For this they gave no reasonable explanation.
*With a thunder in his voice rarely heard by the people of the DOS.* We cannot allow this tyranny to go unanswered! We will no longer feel we are under the thumb of CoC!! We will not allow this charade to continue!!!
*Gaining control of himself.* It is for these reasons that I have ordered the pre-emptive neutralization of what can only be called a hostile invasion force. The operations are taking place as we speak.
We all know that CoC is part of a fairly powerful alliance of nations. However, their treaty only covers offensive operations against member nations. Only a fool could construe these events as an offensive attack. I have ordered these defensive measures to remove this unignorable threat from our lands. I am supremely confident that we will prevail. May whatever God you believe in bless the men and women of our military and our country. Thank you and goodnight. Oh, and we're helping Crippleslovenia conquer the DDR Islands. Goodnight.

*Screen goes dark.*

OOC: Sam lets just see how much of an idiot you really do look like.

1. There was a summit to deal with the locks, that fell apart from terrorist groups from LETI and LOTI due to no fault of ANY of the nations involved in the Summit.

2. You had no claim to the land so the CoC took it, you just look like your country is upset it didn't think of it first.
Oh and you never notified us that a fleet of yours was stuck, so that is your own problem.

3. The Fleet was moved in to protect an ally from attack, since he had engaged enemies, who have stated once commerce resumed between LETI and LOTI they would be committing acts of Piracy agains CoC ships.

4. You never asked the fleet to leave.

5. If your intelligence is as good as you claim :roll: then you would know that ALL CoC ships that carry cruise missiles carry Nuclear tipped ones and have for some time.

6. attacking a fleet in international waters that has made no move towards anyone...........umm yeah. Thats really defensive.

7. You can not go around and tell alliances how they can interpet moves made by you, that is up to the alliances to interpet.

8. Yes, I do not play CoC anymore. But I created that country and watched it grow, so i know how it works since i set it up.

9. If you really must know the nuclear release that Kelso was talking about...........that was for Gravity bombs off of Aircraft not cruise missiles. So nice try.

10. Every post you make that has to deal with one of my former countries or allies I will pop in and make comments like that. I remind you that CoC has more or less left Samsylvannia alone.

Captain Macdougal: Um... Rear Admiral MacDuff... We're being jammed.

MacDuff: Why would someone go and do a thing like that. Set a cource to bring the rest of the fleet closer. We'll communicate via flags if we have too.

::Cruse missiles begin to fall amoung the fleet::

::MacDuff watches as the CCS Valkrii and the CCS God's Hammer take hits::

MacDuff: We're under attack! Where are they coming from?

MacDougal: Looks like the Samsyvannian fleet, but I don't know why they'd attack us. This isn't right at all.

MacDuff: I know. We haven't been the least bit agressive, have we?

MacDougal: Well, sir. I think the time for agression is now.

MacDuff: No, no, no. I don't have any orders from command, and I refuse to start a war. On the other hand, broadcast a message to one of our subs.

::Several ships in the COC fleet, undamaged by the assualt (5 frigates sunk, 1 AEGIS Crusier sunk, 2 Nimitz Sunk, 1 Nimitz damaged, 1 Crusier Damaged, 1 Deathrain damaged) begin to launch harpoons and anti-ship tomahawks (300 missiles in all, for the first salvo) at the last known location of the Samsylvannian fleet. 12 F-35's with anti-radar missiles are launched to destroy the jamming aircraft. 72 F-35's are sent into the air to guard the others and defend the fleet from further attacks::

::The submarine pickets around the fleet begin to move to surround the Samsyvannian ships to prevent any manuvering::

*Imperial Palace*

Lackey: Your Highness, the people have become angry with our attacks on the CoC and Henceland Omega.

Conn: Damn! I was hoping to slip the Henceland Omega part past them. Oh well...uh...well...just go ahead and shoot any rioters. That should shut them up. I believe I can drum up some support for the CoC attack, however.

Lackey: Sir?

Conn: Get me the medical center...

*Several hours later a limo pulls into the Palace garage. Upon it's arrival, the Emperor adresses the nation.*

Conn: Denizens of Samsylvannia, I address you this evening on the subject of our recent defensive measures against the CoC fleet. A little birdie told me that some of you were a teeny bit displeased with our actions. As such, I have no choice but to release to you some previously classified information. What I am about to tell you is what really happened at the LETI/LOTI Summit.

The official story, the one that you have been told, is that our beloved delegates died gallantly defending the ship from terrorists. This, I am sorry to say, was a lie. *The audience, glued to their televisions and radios, collectively gasps.* The truth is very different. I present to you now the actual events of that fateful day.

The summit began without incident, all the delegates had arrived and were settling into their cabins, when terrorists, later identified as Manarthian Exiles, began the attempted assassinations of various leaders in attendance. At that point, a CoC submarine, which had been tailing the liner unbeknownst to the delegates surfaced and boarded the ship. At this point, our brave delegates, finding themselves on a ship under control of the very enemy we had sought to make peace with, armed themselves for self defense. It was at that point that our delegates received vital and time critical information from our allies in Edenstein that a second terrorist group was about to explode a bomb on board the ship. Fearing for their lives, the delegates of both our countries immediately abandoned ship. Along the way, the CoC Gestapo attempted to prevent their disembarkment from the ship. The delegates, following their God given right to abandon ship, abandoned ship. At this point, the CoC Storm Troopers actually OPENED FIRE ON OUR DELEGATION. *The audience gasps again in disbelief. They look at each other and ask if this really can be true.* People of Samsylvannia, I tell you the truth! The CoC mercilessly slaughtered our delegates as they fled for their very lives!!!

Random Crowd Member: Yeah right! You expect us to believe THAT?!

Conn: Good people hear me!!! In typical CoC fashion, they failed in their goal! One of our delegates survived, as well as one of Edenstein’s!!!

Random Crowd Member: Boo!!! Lies!!! You tell us lies!!!

Conn: People of Samsylvannia, trust not your ears, but your very eyes!!!!

*The crowd watches in amazement as Daniel Jackson, bandaged and supporting himself with a cane, steps to the podium.*

Jackson: Good people, your Emperor speaks the truth!!! The CoCs killed 6 innocent people on that day!!!

*The Emperor looks on in satisfaction as the crowd roars. Shouts of “Out with the CoC! Out with the CoC!” can be heard over the din.*

Conn: *Aside to Jackson* Thank you Daniel, that had to have been hard for you.

Jackson: For Samsylvannia, your highness.

*Aboard the Queen Ann's Revenge II*

Ensign: Sir, we caught them completely off guard, we caused extensive damage to their fleet.

Admiral: Excellent. Enemy response?

Ensign: It looks like the remaining ships are blindly launching Harpoons and TASMs in our direction.

Admiral: How many?

Ensign: We've counted over 100 and they're still launching. They are also sending aircraft in the direction of the jamming aircraft.

Admiral: Alright, alert the ESW aircraft, tell them to be ready for them. Launch the Alert 5 Pumas and order Blue Flight to intercept. Cease jamming operations and go to EMCON. Hold course. What are the status of our subs?

Ensign: 4 Akulas and 2 688s in screening positions. The Pax and Edenstien fleets are also close enough to us to serve as pickets.

Admiral: Send the following message to the CoC Ships:

"Attention all CoC Ships invading the LETI Region. Cease and desist. Return to your home waters immediately. Consider that your warning shot. That is all."

How long till the missiles come within range?

Ensign: Another 3 minutes, sir. We'll be able to handle the first few waves, but if they keep this up, I don't know if we can keep up.

Admiral: This is where it gets fun...

*The enemy missiles begin to come within range and the closest ships in the formation automatically begin launching SAMs to intercept the inbounds. One gets through to the Queen Ann's Revenge II. After several hours the numbers stand at:
287 missles intercepted.
2 Oliver Hazard Perry sunk, 2 heavily damaged and dead in the water.
2 Ticonderogas on fire
1 Aleigh Burke, on fire but under control.
1 Nimitz with deck damage, flight operations suspended.
1 Iowa with light damage to superstructure.*

*3rd legion fleet, who had been monitoring the situation suddenly loses radio, and satelite hookups, the radar is still working but it is picking up a lot of interference*

Captain: What the hell is going on out there? Chief, launch another 6 tomcats for CAP

Chief: Yes sir,

Captain: Also try get a hold of the other ships, see if they are having comm problems as well, see if any of them can raise any of the fleets out there.

*On all frequencys*

This is the ES: 0S 5 of legion fleet 3. To any ships in the area please respond.

*Back in Edenstein a "Mob" has formed outside of the government buildings, protestors holding up signs against the Buldger 15 accords*

Protester 1: (with a bullhorn) Edenstein dosn't need to be held down to these kinds of treaties that get our sons and daughters shipped off to far of lands to fight and die because of a silly whim of the Emperor or his lackys! We've gone on far enough giving our hard earned Ruples to the government to be poured into the military! We need to stop meddling in the affairs of other nations in this region!!

*loud cries can be heard coming from the now huge crowd that has enveloped the whole square*

Protester 2: *takes bullhorn from protester one* THIS BULGER 15 ACCORD ISN'T WORTH THE PAPER IT IS WRITTEN ON! IT DOSN'T EVEN HOLD SAMMSYLVANIA AND CRIPPLESLAVANIA ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS! WHAT GOOD IS THIS TO EDENSTEIN!!!!

Protester 3: *takes bullhorn and holds up a broom* My fellow Edensteinians! We need sweeping reforms! Emperor Ed has been left unchecked for to long now! He runs this country as if it where some internet game, almost.... ummm, like a Nationstate! The Emperor needs to realize that we are not just his "Playthings!"

*Massive applause comes from the crowd*

*Suddenly someone starts to throw rocks at the buildings and busts a few windows when mob mentality takes over, the mass of people start to riot, throwing rocks and sticks and anyhting else they can get a hold of at anyone and anything that remotly looks related to the government, Cars a re flipped and fires are set. The police are quickly over run and the military is called in, after about 6 hours of rioting, 325 people are arrested, 14 are dead killed from various injuries sustained during the riots and 65 are injured with minor wounds*

OOC: Edited to add riot

*Imperial Palace*

Conn: Please send this message to Veirt Reich.

"Please do not concern yourselves with our defensive actions against the CoC. We do this only in the interests of self preservation. We have no quarrel with you or the members of your alliance. Should you choose to take action in this, we will have no choice but to bring the matter to the attention of the Bulger 15 Regional Council. The results of that would most unfortunate for you. Have a nice day."

Crowd Member: Hey, I don't see what your problem is, it's not like Crippleslovenia tried diplomacy with US before they attacked!

Student: My name, um, is Brendon Lior.

Tempest: Brendon, you are under arrest for treason against Henceland Omega, its government, and its people.

Brendon: See, this is what I'm talking about!

Tempest: His Henceness has not slept a wink since the attacks began, he has been meticulous about planning things so as to minimize caualties and maximize effectiveness. And what right do you have to undermine him?

Brendon: The right of Free Speech!

Kiyone: And I have the right to throw your ass in jail for criticizing the government. Looks like a win-win to me!

Tempest: You will be tried in court one week from today, as a traitor against us! Seize him! ::the guards seize Brendon, then the group disappears. The band begins to play again. As they walk off, Kiyone walks up to Tempest::

OOC:I hate to say it sam......well i don't hate to say it......your godmodding.....

you launched 24 radar guided missiles........kelso allowed them to hit......even though.........YOU WERE RADAR JAMMING THE AREA!!!!! DUH

Plus the Radar on a Ticonderoga AEGIS is much more powerful than on any aircraft. Your jamming wouldn't have overcome it.

And now Kelso launches 300 Cruise missiles. and you intercept 287.....come on. and only take light damage? Sam your full of shit.


I see you don't understand the concept of playing fair. Goddamn i'm glad its not me. And launching an offensive strike on ships in international waters is ummmm not defensive? and sinking ships are not warning shots.

Kelso my advice to you is to just ignore these dumbasses.

OOC: I thought you'd never ask! Here is the formula I used to decide my casualties *inhales*:

According to information I could find, the RIM-116 carried by the ships I use shot down 23 of 24 targets in live fire testing. That is almost a 96% success rate. I rounded that down to 80%, since this was not a test (you couldn’t come much closer to test conditions since they knew when and where the missiles would be coming from). 300*80%=240, so that leaves 60 missiles left in the air. At close range, the CIWS takes over. Because I could not find exact numbers, I used 80% for this as well. That leaves 12 missiles. I added one more to make it an unlucky 13. This, by the way, does not account for multiple SAM launches. In general there would be time for one or two more launches in case of a miss (Even one additional launch per miss would reduce the number from 60 to 12, and the CIWS would shoot down an additional 9.6 of those, leaving exactly 2.4 missiles to impact their targets). All of this assumes that all 300 missiles did not malfunction and acquired targets (although they were fired blindly at the Samsyvannian Fleet’s last position), and that no attempts at air to air interceptions were made from the multitude of fighters in the area.

I didn't call Kelso's losses, that's his business. Why don’t you yell at him for it? If I drop one small bomb on your base, and you claim that it destroys your entire base, it doesn't mean that from then on all you need is one small bomb to destroy each of my bases. If I allow one of your stealth cargo planes to get past my air defenses, it doesn’t mean that you’ll allow one of mine to get by (as you so aptly demonstrated). And for God's sake please stop whining about my characters’ speeches. Politicians lie quite frequently to their people, they can say whatever they want. If you have a problem with anything my characters have said, take it up in character with them. I am not my characters. Learn from this. You’ll be a happier person. So take it up with them, as opposed to quoting entire posts and adding grammatically lacking bulleted lists to the end. Actually, I take that back. Since you have no ties to this region, I guess you don't really have any in character reasons to post here. Come to think of it...why are you here? I thought you hated us soooo much that you just had to leave. Oh well, I guess not everyone can be as popular as we are. To everyone else, I apologize for the long OOC post.

P.S. The MOOG is HENCE!!!!

::Ritsuko arrives back at the Hence Palace, and is pacing back in forth in front of Corran::

Ritsuko: Something has to be done about this. I mean, Sabrewulf base is prepared to launch a counterattack, but still... we have to fight this thing at its source.

Corran: What do you mean?

Ritsuko: Emperor Conn has done nothing but cause trouble. He's almost gotten us attacked, he HAS attacked us himself, and he's running his nation like a simulated game. I think he needs to be taken out.

Corran: (mumbles) he's not the real emperpr anyway...

Ritsuko: What was that?

Corran: Nothing...

Ritsuko: Anyhow, I think a special team needs to penetrate into Samsylvannia and take him out. Is that ok?

Corran: Sure, you're the expert here! Just remember, the focus has to be on defending ourselves. I think we may to make some arrangements to make this better.

Ritsuko: How so?

Corran: Umm... don't worry about it. Citan's taking care of it.

Ritsuko: Oh you aren't... ::shakes her head:: I can't belive you.

Corran: Well it is the logical thing to do. Anyway... you go ahead and do your thing.

*Edenstein News breaks into Golden Girls, The not so quite Geriatric Years to bring you this special announcement from the Emperor*

Ed: Goodevening LETI, as many of you are aware, there was a riot in the captial city a few days ago, this riot was triggered by opposition to the Bulger 15 accords and our nation signing it. I am sypathetic towards the concerns that the people have about sending your sons and daughters to fight in wars that do not concern us. But, keep in mind, Lake Erie is a small lake, any conflicts in our region directly affect us. It affects our commerace, it affects our relations and it also affects are well being.

It is right to defend our allies, and the Bulger 15 accords are a way to do that without directly involving our troops. Right now, we are pushing for economic sanctions against Sammsylvania and Crippleslavania for there actions against Henceland Omega.

Comrads, keep faith in your Duma and In me, we will see that your sons and daughters will not die in a far off wasteland because of the whims of other leaders in the region. Good night

"We interrupt your regularly scheduled broadcast for a special announcement by Admiral Spina Bifida"

*Admiral Spina Bifida stands in full officer regalia in an office of the ship that once led the Proenzastanian elite 5th fleet and now is the lead ship of the Crippleslovenian 13th fleet.*

Bifida: Ladies and gentlemen of LETI. I am a man of few words so I wish to keep this brief. As of less than an hour ago, this very fleet began an assault of the Henceland Omega island of Marle Island. This is in direct conflict with the orders we received from Emperor R. Thro Gryposis III. Our fleet had been ordered to sweep the area around Grahf Military Base. The plan was to secure the base and use its resources to secure other parts of the Omega Island and move eastward towards the main islands of Henceland Omega.

You may now be asking yourself why first of all I openly defied orders and also why I am announcing confidential information vital to our mission. The answer is simple, it is no longer our mission. As of right now, all military equipment, weapons and personnel connected with the former nation of Proenzastan are once again a part of the Proenzastanian military. As soon as I receive confirmation of its capture, I will be setting up what will be known as New Proenzastan on Marle Island with myself as Chancellor.

My message to Gryposis is this, leave Henceland Omega immediately. Without us, you are nothing. As for Emperor Corran, I have no interest in the DDR Isles and want nothing to do with them. I am rebuilding a once great nation. I officially pledge my support in getting Samsylvannia nad Crippleslovenia out of your area.

That is all. Good night.

"We now return you to your regularly scheduled program, already in progress...."

"JOE! STOP KILLING OUR DAUGHTER'S BOYFRIENDS!"

"I DUNNO!!!"

*Aronar sits in the C&C room watching the screen as the Proenzstan newsbrief is shown. Tim and Andrew are also there.*

Aronar: That sly son of a....

Andrew: They did pick the best time. They now make a new ally and regain their own freedom. What is Crippleslovenia going to do? They just lost half their military and I believe most of their navy.

Aronar: Well, whats happens now? Proenzastan is back in swing, maybe. DOS is in deep with the FOOTCOC, HO has to have mobilized by now. The only thing that isn't happening is someone is annexing us.

Tim: Sir, please don't...

Aronar: I know, but I mean everything but the kitchen sink is coming from the sky today. Btw, did those new weapons finish Tim?

Tim: Yes sir, the AC-10 Spectre Gunships are fitted, ready, and in position at all bases and installations.

Aronar: Excellent.

Andrew: Sir, the DOS fleet has engaged the FOOTCOC fleet. DOS has sent a telegram kindly asking for support. What should we do?

Aronar: Excalibur Carrier Group should be in that vacinity, send them to help out. If fired upon they have persmission to use the entire power they bear.

Andrew: Yes sir! *Andrew walks over to the comm officers station.*

Aronar: Lets see these boys get out of this one.

Tim: Sir, won't it be constrewed as helping DOS in their wars with both FOOTCOC and HO?

Aronar: Nonsense, in no way will we be attacking the HO Empire. Unless they randomly shoot us, which is highly unlikely to happen. And even then, HO has always been a trusted ally, I would never commit troops to war with them without provocation, and "expanding the empire" is not provocation, why do you think we annex all the countries?

Tim: I see...

Aronar: Exactly. Now relax, all is well, for once, just get some rest, tomorow we'll probly be fending off more annexations.

::In Lake Erie near Omega Island::

Pilot: Rogue Leader, this is Rogue Alpha 4. Confirmed multiple fighters and bombers in the air space surrounding Grahf.

Rogue Leader: Roger. Rogue Alpha Wing prepare to engage.

::Rogue Alpha Wing currently consists of 24 F/A-18 Super Hornets, who prepare to engage the Crippleslovenian planes::

*Aboard the Queen Ann's Revenge II*

Ensign: Sir, we caught them completely off guard, we caused extensive damage to their fleet.

Admiral: Excellent. Enemy response?

Ensign: It looks like the remaining ships are blindly launching Harpoons and TASMs in our direction.

Admiral: How many?

Ensign: We've counted over 100 and they're still launching. They are also sending aircraft in the direction of the jamming aircraft.

Admiral: Alright, alert the ESW aircraft, tell them to be ready for them. Launch the Alert 5 Pumas and order Blue Flight to intercept. Cease jamming operations and go to EMCON. Hold course. What are the status of our subs?

Ensign: 4 Akulas and 2 688s in screening positions. The Pax and Edenstien fleets are also close enough to us to serve as pickets.

Admiral: Send the following message to the CoC Ships:

"Attention all CoC Ships invading the LETI Region. Cease and desist. Return to your home waters immediately. Consider that your warning shot. That is all."

How long till the missiles come within range?

Ensign: Another 3 minutes, sir. We'll be able to handle the first few waves, but if they keep this up, I don't know if we can keep up.

Admiral: This is where it gets fun...

*The enemy missiles begin to come within range and the closest ships in the formation automatically begin launching SAMs to intercept the inbounds. One gets through to the Queen Ann's Revenge II. After several hours the numbers stand at:
287 missles intercepted.
2 Oliver Hazard Perry sunk, 2 heavily damaged and dead in the water.
2 Ticonderogas on fire
1 Aleigh Burke, on fire but under control.
1 Nimitz with deck damage, flight operations suspended.
1 Iowa with light damage to superstructure.*

OOC:I hate to say it sam......well i don't hate to say it......your godmodding.....

you launched 24 radar guided missiles........kelso allowed them to hit......even though.........YOU WERE RADAR JAMMING THE AREA!!!!! DUH

Plus the Radar on a Ticonderoga AEGIS is much more powerful than on any aircraft. Your jamming wouldn't have overcome it.

And now Kelso launches 300 Cruise missiles. and you intercept 287.....come on. and only take light damage? Sam your full of shit.


I see you don't understand the concept of playing fair. Goddamn i'm glad its not me. And launching an offensive strike on ships in international waters is ummmm not defensive? and sinking ships are not warning shots.

Kelso my advice to you is to just ignore these dumbasses.

OOC: Advice taken. COC ships are fully repaired and moving out. Have a nice day LETI, and feel free to move throught the Ontario locks at will (Assuming you aren't attacking us)

::In the Hence Palace, Corran listens to the newsbrief of Bifida while reading the reports from Omega Island::

Corran: What the hell? Or WTF as Wallace put it. MARLE Island? I can't remember the last time Marle Island had anything happen to it. However, we can't let this happen. How much longer before the real strike force reaches Omega Island?

Laura: They are going to launch within the next few hours. By this time tomorrow we should have that situation under control.

Corran: Ok good. How about the other situation on DDR?

Laura: Reports say conversion is on standby and awaiting Ritsuko's command.

Corran: But Ritsuko isn't here... Well let's hope we can hold out untill she remembers to give that order....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
::At the Fei Fong Wong Airport Terminal, Ritsuko and 5 special ops agents are standing in line::

Agent: (whispers) Umm... General, shouldn't we be taking our Sea Horse Sub? I mean... everyone here knows who we are!

Ritsuko: That's just it. Here they do. But I've done some research and a CoC study showed that people apparantly can't recognize important figureheads from other nations. It's the safest way to penetrate DOS.

Agent 2: Um, what about our weapons?

Ritsuko: Oh, that's been taken care of. And... ::she notices an agent beginning to protest again:: to answer your question I have my pistol and sniper rifle on me.

::They walk through the metal detector. It beeps as Ritsuko walks through. The security guard gives Ritsuko an odd look, looks her up and down, then motions to her.

Guard: Oooook, get on ze plane... ::They board the plane::

Agent 4: What the... Where are your weapons? Ritsuko just smiles as they sit in their seats as they prepare for takeoff. Minutes later Flight 42 FFW-SAM takes off for Samsylvannia. None of the passengers make any remarks about Ritsuko or the other agents, to the surprise of the agents...::

*Marle Island in Henceland Omega, under constant attack from a force identifying themselves as the Proenzastanian armed forces. The first wave, begun in the middle of the night was a naval bombardment and simultaneous air strike. Things had begun to calm when suddenly several transports beached themselves on the island, unloading a significant infantry. People scatter as soldiers gun down every person they see, man woman or child, regardless of their pleas.*

*An alley in the streets of Marle Island, a mother, Valerie, mourning over the butchering death of her husband Paul in their home minutes before, runs with her children, David, age 5, Tim, age 8, and Teresa, age 13.*

Tim: Mommy, why are these bad people doing this?

Valerie: I don’t know Timmy, let’s just try to hide.

*Suddenly a Proenzastanian soldier, no more than 20 years old, enters the alley*

Soldier: Hold it right there!

Valerie: Oh please, please don’t hurt us!

David: Mommy, I’m scared!

*Teresa steps towards the soldier*

Valerie: TERESA!!!! NO!!

Teresa (to soldier): Sir, why are you hurting us? What have we ever done to you? We just want to live here in peace. If you’re going to kill someone, kill me, just don’t hurt my mom or little brothers.

Soldier (Seemingly moved by the speech): Go, hide in that wooden crate.

*The family thanks the soldier and climbs into the wooden crate.*

Soldier (As he closes the top of the crate): Touching, very touching.

*The soldier lights the crate on fire*

*Imperial Palace of Crippleslovenia. Emperor Gryposis watching the footage of the atrocities on Marle Island at the hands of Admiral Bifida’s armed forces.*

Gryposis: Get me on the air immediately.


“We now interrupt your regularly scheduled programs for a special address by Emperor R. Thro Gryposis III of Crippleslovenia.”

*Gryposis sits at his desk, morose, and obviously shaken by the actions of his admiral.*

Gryposis: Ladies, gentlemen and cripples of LETI. Beginning in the middle of the night yesterday evening, Admiral Spina Bifida led an attack on the Henceland Omega island of Marle apparently to building a New Proenzastan. At this very moment hundreds of citizens are being murdered as Proenzastanian forces killing everything in sight. I want to make it clear that I nor the Imperial Government of Crippleslovenia condone such acts. As of this time I officially renounce all members of the Proenzastan armed forces and its leader, Spina Bifida. I also officially announce that Crippleslovenia will in no way acknowledge the nation of New Proenzastan.

I have a message to Emperor Corran and the people of Henceland Omega. All attack plans on your country have been suspended until our new fellow enemy is dealt with. We will continue to defend our captured islands but will in no way attempt to gain more for it would be foolish at this time.

Good day and may the Grand Wheelchair shine upon you all.

::Rogue Alpha Wing beings to engage the Crippleslovenian planes near Omega Island::

Rogue Alpha 8: Rogue Leader this is suicide.

Rogue Leader: I know. Do the best you can. Keep them busy for just a little while then we'll retreat.

Rogue Alpha 8: Retreat to where? The carriers aren't around here yet!

Rogue Leader: They're on their way. As are the other fighter wings. We merely have to keep them distracted while the strike is prepared.

Rogue Alpha 3: Geeze.... This sucks. ::Fires missles at Crippleslovenian bombers that happen to be in the area:: Here we go!

::On Marle Island, the Island capital of Trigger prepares its small national guard to defend the city from Proenzastanian troops that are rapidly approaching. A townsperson named Chris comes to report the number of troops::

Officer: That many? Jesus Christ. We can't defend ourselves against that many! How far away would you say they are?

Chris: Yeah, here's the thing... ::As he speaks Proenzastantian Hum-Vs come rolling over the hill just outside the city limits::

Officer: $**t! Soldiers take your positions!

Chris: ::runs to hide in his basement:: As the ancient scrolls said... 'There's no salvation on the horizon. No easy way out this time. Everyone's running around in confusion...' ::He looks back and sees a Hum-V run over a group of track students that couldn't get out of the way in time. He runs faster. 'Slaughtered for committing no crime!'

::The Proenzastantian army begins firing blindly into the city. They have no specific target. Men, women, children all become victims of random destruction. Fires are set in the city. The HO National guard fights back bravely, but it is to no avail. The soldiers HO soldiers are quickly overtaken. As Chris is just about to make it back to
his house, an explosion rips the cuilding next to his. Flak from the building catches his leg, pinning him to the ground, and blowing a gigantic gash into his hip. He realizes that he can't get away, and nobody can possibly help him before he dies::

Chris: ::Looks up and raises his arms to the sky, quoting the Ancient scrolls once more:: 'What have we done? Can we be saved? Or do we have one foot in the grave? When will we learn? Or must we burn? To save our souls, from evil we must turn!' ::As he finishes his quote, a Proenzastanian soldier hears him and turns his AK-47 on him, quieting him forever. In the government building, Island Governor Sam O. Frogg shakes his head. He turns and notices Spina Bifida standing behind him with a .44 pointed at him::

Frogg: Oh no! General Bifida! Honorable leader of New Proenzastan! I surrender our island to you! Feell free to set up governemnt here!

Bifida: Promise me money. Promise me fame! Promise me land! Promise me POWER!

Frogg: Absolutely! Take whatever you want! Just PLEASE! Spare me and my people!

Bifida: ::lowers his gun:: Thank you sir. Now rest in piece. Or should I say.... in pieces? ::In one smooth motion he raises the gun and blows Frogg's head off::

*Imperial Palace, Samsylvannia. The Emperor is watching video feed of the Proenzistanian brutality in the darkened throne room by himself.*

Emperor: Bifida. I should have known. *Activates intercom.* The senior staff will meet in the briefing room in ten minutes. *Turns off intercom.* You'll pay for this, Bifida...

*There is a knock at the door.*

Emperor: Enter.

*A figure is silouetted in the doorway.* You sent for me, highness?

Emperor: Yes. We have a situation. It would seem that Admiral Spina Bifida has betrayed Crippleslovenia and us. He is attempting to re-establish Proenzastan on one of Henceland Omega's islands.

Figure: What do you wish me to do?

Emperor: What is the status of the Black Pearl Battle Group?

Figure: They have taken the easternmost DDR island. As with the others they met little resistance. We are poised to begin the assault on...*The Emperor cuts him off.*

Emperor: No. We will cease offensive operations against Henceland. We must concentrate on Bifida and his insolence. We will in effect be in a state of de facto alliance with them until he is defeated. DDR South can wait.

Figure: But sir! *The Emperor glares at him.* How can we trust them? We can't give them time to prepare a...a...*The Emperor cuts him off.*

Emperor: If you do not obey me you will be replaced. And by replaced I mean disposed of. We would not even waste the cost of a bullet on you. Another use for you could be found I'm sure...perhaps you will "volunteer" as a test subject for our new chemical weapons...

Figure: *Timidly.* Yes, sir. *The figure closes the door and exits.*

Emperor: *To himself.* Something's not right. This is too easy. Surely Corran has something left up his sleeve...

*Briefing Room, shortly thereafter. Emperor Conn has not yet arrived.*

Murdock: So I says to this guy, I says "Buddy, you ain't leading but two things right now: Jack and shit...and Jack just left town." *The room erupts in laughter. Suddenly the door flings wide and Emperor Conn walks in.*

Conn: Sorry I'm late, I was eating this pretzel and...
*The advisors groan and roll their eyes.* Shut up! Asses...down to business. We have a situation. Admiral Spina Bifida has betrayed us.

Murdock: Why that son of a bitch! As soon as I conquer DDR South I'll...

Conn: No. We will suspend that operation until Bifida is dealt with.

Murdock: But sir! We can't allow them time for a counter-attack. We have to...*Emperor Conn cuts him off.*

Conn: No! Bifida must be dealt with. We cannot sustain a conflict on both of those fronts. Bifida is too dangerous for that. We will...*He trails off, thinking. Suddenly he turns angry.* You know what? Screw it. General, tell your men to launch the invasion of DDR South immediately. Now that the CoC threat has been dealt with you will have both the Queen Ann's Revenge II Battleship Group and the Black Pearl Carrier Group at your disposal. *To himself* I'll show him...

Murdock: Right away, sir!!

Conn: Excellent. Dismissed.

::Flight 42 FFW-SAM lands safely in the Sam City Airport. The passengers get off the plane and walk through the terminal. The HO Agents are baffled as Ritsuko walks through the airport completely unnoticed by the Sammsylvanian citizens and visitors::

Agent Smith: General, how did...

Ritsuko: They may not notice me, but while we're here call me Rit-chan, it's less suspicious.

Agent Smith: But then shouldn't you use an alias? And a disguise?

Ritsuko: No. I've noticed that the more normal you act, the less suspicous people are of you.

Agent Neo: I'm so confused...

Ritsuko: Just follow my lead. We've got hotel reservations downtown already. I did spring for the expensive suites I must admit... Luna wouldn't be too happy... Oh well. It's for a good cause! ::They walk to the hotel. When they arrive, Ritsuko checks in, throws her stuff in the hotel room, and goes to take a shower::

Agent Ghost: Agents J and K, I don't trust the people here as much as the General wants to. Secure all the rooms on this wing. We'll all take watch throughout the night.

Agent J: Affirmative. May I ask you a question?

Agent Ghost: Go ahead.

Agent J: What are the General's plans for this assassination?

Agent Ghost: I have no idea...

Self-appointed Chancellor Spina Bifida sits in the mayor's office, which has become the temporary home of the New Proenzastan government.*

Bifida: Ahh, apparently Operation Nanjing was a complete success. What are the final numbers?

Officer: Well sir, the numbers are not precise because many people are missing and all the fires made bodies hard to identify let alone tally.......

Bifida: The numbers son!!!!!!

Officer: Sorry sir. The totals so far estimate 6,500 dead and another 1,000 or more either missing or unidentified. We lost 4 soldiers ourselves.

Bifida: Four of our boys died at the hands of those wretched Marlians?!!! My first act as Chancellor is to fund a great memorial in honor of those four individuals. Oh, and those bodies of the Marle citizens, bulldoze them into the lake.

Officer: Excuse me sir?!!!!! We can't do that....

Bifida: EXCUSE ME!! I am the unquestionable leader of this country. Don't forget that I can call upon the power of the ancient druids at any time!!! I am practically god!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In fact, the meterological conditions that exist now are the very same as the ones that created LETI in the first place, thousands of years ago! The condition will exist for another 15 minutes.

Perfect example of poor RPing sam. And you may be bigger but your budget and civil rights suck. Thus giving me a larger military budget then you. Way to god mod again. And yes, this is all letitly bought. It does exsist withing game rules. And way to try to ignore it with a cheese missle again... which dosent exsist.. wont ever exsist. As for me not posting its because of your shitty RPing once again you've shown it here. And anyone can attack you out of the blue i refer to the TROUSRS incident on me. That was totally unwarrented attack upon myself which i wasnt going to rp because i had to leave for work. At least i had some sort of legitimate excuse. You just make up any lame excuse you can find to do whatever you want. Sam stick to being an english major. You obviously dont know jack about war. If war comes flee from it.. you'll try to grammer check a bullet before it crosses through the empty space within your skull.. and hope normal rules dont apply to you.

In Flanders Fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place, and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

The Nation of Edenstein has nothing to fear Theocracy of Eastern Detroit, we are not expanding merely discovering oil upon our own land. We are Eastern Detroit, we reside in the lands known as South Eastern Michigan and Northwestern Ohio, giving us a vast shoreline. The United States? never heard of it. And we are offering outside investors to come in and benifit from our recent discovery of natural resources. About the Military, we currently don't really have any so the buildup is purely for defensive purposes, and in the benefit cooperation, I will allow one Edenstein company to have a stake in one of our oil fields. And if Edenstein would like, they may send observers of our military buildup.

Re: Oil finds and Military buildup

We will be watching this situation closely, in the intrests of the LETI region. First off, you can not claim land that rightfully belongs to the United States, Any oil finds or other mineral deposits found there as stated before, belong to the the United States.

Secondly, we will be watching carefully this military build up, currently this region is in a state of constant strife, and we will not allow a fledgling nation to add to these problems. Be advised, any hostile action towards ANY nation in the LETI region will be delt with harshly and swiftly.

The Nation of Edenstein has nothing to fear Theocracy of Eastern Detroit, we are not expanding merely discovering oil upon our own land. We are Eastern Detroit, we reside in the lands known as South Eastern Michigan and Northwestern Ohio, giving us a vast shoreline. The United States? never heard of it.

::The main force of Sabrewulf Base nears Omega Island, just missing the Sammsylvannian Fleet as it moves out. Instead it finds the Crippleslovenian forces bunking out near old Grahf Base. They prepare to attack. The force is:

2 Hover Class Carriers 2 Nimitz Class Carriers
4 AEGIS Cruisers 8 AEGIS Destroyers
4 Tikhiy Stealth Destroyers 4 Spruance Destroyers
4 OHP Frigates 2 LA Class Subs
200 F/A-18 Hornets 150 F-14 Tomcats
50 F-111 Naval Bombers 1 Hospital Ship

Upon finding the Crippleslovenian forces, they engage::

::On Marle Island, a woman and her child sit in a shelter built into a hill. The woman had watched as Proenzastanian invaders had shot her husband and 2 of her 3 children in front of her. Only by the intervention of the HO National Guard had she been able to escape with her youngest son, but she knows the National Guard is all dead now. She creeps over to to her son, who is looking out a small sliver of a window::

Boy: Momma! Momma! Look out the window! What are those?

Mother: Oh dear God... ::She looks out the window. Her jaw drops:: Why... why those are... !!! Those look like...

Boy: Flowers!

Mother: Yes, flowers falling from the sky!

Boy: Did God send those to us momma?

Mother: Yes... I think we've just met God... Ha ha! I think we're going to be ok! We'll get through this yet!

OOC: To Clarify, my nation inhabits an Island known as Toledo, with Southeast Michigan and Northwest Ohio being regions of that Island. We are located in the South West Corner of Lake Erie. The Capital of my Island is Eastern Detroit.

Mohammed Ayatollah Adied would like to announce that we are offering the nation of Dubelco investment oppurtunity's within our oilfields. We will let a company from Dubelco invest in the Off-shore Oil Fields of Toledo. That is all.

OOC: I thought this was interesting

Think about this:

A. The number of physicians in the US is 700,000.
B. Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year is = 120,000.
C. Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171.

(US Dept. of Health &Human Services)

Then think about this:
A. The number of gun owners in the US is 80,000,000.
B. The number of accidental gun deaths per year is 1,500.
C. The number of accidental deaths per gun owner 0.0000188.

Statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous
than gun owners.


FACT: NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.

Please alert your friends to this alarming threat.

We must ban doctors before this gets out of hand.

As a public health measure, I have withheld the statistics on lawyers
for fear that the shock could cause people to seek medical attention.

Today in the country of Tubamanea our leader sead that the country would like to become a testing area for all countrys how ask him throw the telegrams and he will help in emey way he even sead that he will let them test on live humens for cloning is legol and he talks like we are open game not humens so the people are not going to stand for it.

* VR supply ships and troops are welcomed by the FR people. Parades are held in each city *

*Imperial Office of New Proenzastan, formerly the Governor's mansion on Marle Isalnd. Chancellor Bifida and his men have occupied the land for a week with no more resistance, mostly because all the resistance was slaughtered, and Proenzastan "refugees" have been arriving daily. Chancellor Bifida sits at his desk when an officer rushes in...*

Officer: Excuse me sir, but I told to tell you that HO has begun a counterstrike on Crippleslovenia.

Bifida: Excellent. As the old saying goes, when the cat's away.... Give the men the orders to proceed as planned.

*Moments later, on the beach of Tifa Island, Bela Bartok, a young Hungarian-born musician and his wife, Stella, are strolling on the boardwalk.*

Bela: Ahh, even though there's war all around us, I'm glad there's still room for love in this crazy world. I love you Stella.

Stella: I love you too.

*As they embrace and kiss, a shadow looms over them in the form of several infantry carriers. Suddenly the carriers open and out pours a significant Proenzastanian infantry. They see the couple, and as one soldier stabs Bela in the back, mortally wounding him, and two other soldiers grab Stels and begin to tear off her clothing and violently rape her.*

Bela: STELLA!

*Bela faints from blood loss and dies. After the soldiers finish with Stella, they shoot her, twice in the chest and once in the head.*

It has come to my attention that since all this war has errupted that some nations who want to send bands are unable to do the fact that they are fighting for their country. The department of Entertainment has informed me that they are willing to put letistock off until this war has ended. Still though we would like to have a venue prepared ahead of time. if you are wanting to send a band to letistock just hit me up with a telegram saying that you are submitting a band. this way we can have a venue all set for when the real date of letistock is decided we dont have to wait for all the bands to be entered into the venue. thank you for your time.

Rialto will begin to move naval forces into position to help defend Henceland Omega and to surround the DDR islands. We are calling on crippleslovenia to halt it’s attacks on Henceland Omega and return the DDR islands.

OOC: Awwww... petunias. But where's the sperm whale?

*The skank ship reaches the port of Counterpoint, accompanied by the 32nd Naval Task Force of Samsylvannia as well as one of Dubelco's most elite marine task forces*

Tracey: Finally, we're home.
Alyssa: It's been a long journey. *looks back at all the ships behind her* Well, what do you think we should do with all these guys?
Tracey: Let's go ask the GHS. I think she's meeting with Empress Jessica right now.

*They enter Empress Jessica's palace. Empress Jessica, the GHS, Spike, and Ford Explorer are sitting around talking*

Tracey: We're back!
GHS: *sucking on her cigarette* Great.
Alyssa: What do you want us to do? We've got lots of men out there!
GHS: Ooooh. Let me at them before you leave again.
Tracey: *looking dejected* We have to leave again?
Empress Jessica: *nods* I radioed you while you were out. You must not have received the comm...
Alyssa: Well then, where are we going?
Jessica: There's conflict in the DDR Isles of Henceland Omega.
GHS: And you know I've always had a thing against Corran. *shakes head* The only man who's ever rejected me... besides Mem. Zart, of course.
Jessica: We've pledged you guys to the Crippleslovenian cause.
Alyssa: But what about the task force from Samsylvannia? They're helping Crippleslovenia as well. They're bound to take back what's theirs.
GHS: *laughs* Does it matter? Samsylvannia, with all its men, is putty in our hands, as is Crippleslovenia. Even if we don't take Henceland Omega, we'll need to build that alliance... it would be very advantageous. Besides, Henceland Omega is the perfect place for us to set up. I mean, its acronym is HO...
*they all laugh*
Tracey: *sighs* All right. We'll get ready to sail again.

*they leave, followed by the GHS*

::In the Hence Palace::

Bart: Your Henceness! We have some bad news!

Corran: What's that?

Bart: Somewhat important events that take place. But that's not important. Proenzastan has started attacking Tifa Island!

Corran: WHAT?!? Ok, that's it, we've put up with enough. ::He walks over to a red phone and picks it up:: Dynamite Rave. ::He puts the phone down:: Tell Citan to make the other call Bart, and let's hope we can get rid of Crippleslovanian forces quickly. ::Bart runs off, as Corran shakes his head:: You know, VR said they were going to help us, and all Hoover's picked up from them is their massing of military by their allied nation. Perhaps Ritsuko was right about them all along...

I would like to apologize for the newspaper article that my people put out for they are idiots and can't spell and the person who translated to English didn't change it so later that day they were all put infront of a firing squad.
