Shortwave radios have global reach using atmospheric bounce.

True, but this is a shortwave radio transmitter antenna: [url="http://www.giangrandi.ch/electronics/broadcast/sottens-sw-01-a.jpg"]http://www.giangrandi.ch/electronics/broadcast/sottens-sw-01-a.jpg[/url]

That's a pretty big target, plus to quote the wikipedia, "Shortwave broadcasts often suffer from serious interference problems."

Spyrolls to have Kamborian members of Lavo's Organization commit atrocities and broadcast them to discredit.

EDIT: Intended to post in the OOC thread, but w/e:



Hey Lavo, two questions:

I use the Predator C UAVs ([url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Atomics_Avenger"]General Atomics Avenger[/url]), not the predator A/reapers. I don't think machine guns would do very much?

Second question, how did you broadcast the Public Announcement?


Edit: Grammar fix.

You're nitpicking, there are about three allied navies in the area and enough aircraft in the air to relay some very simple messages.

If you're referring to anything but the Oceanic militaries, I have to nitpick further...they would hardly be re-broadcasting the messages.

And i sincerely doubt even the Tianxian one has had enough time to get much in the way of anything there yet.

The Athenian Pacific Fleet is nearby, my fighters are and I already rp'd UAVs with specialized commmunications equipment.

You got around the world in less than a week? Because I get the sense this is happening over a few days, not a few months.

Serious subtle I thought you would know about global projection. I have units around the world to begin with.

Which would most likely be based in or around Tianxia, or your Antarctic holdings in this case, am I correct?

Thanks. Just trying to get a sense of which fleet would have actually been close enough...wait a minute. When did they actually set sail? I don't recall you saying anything about that IC-wise. Sorry if I sound nitpicky again, and if you did and I'm just not remembering, I apologize. Last post from me on the subject, at least in this thread, promise.

Around the point I DoW'd, and again I have UAVs in the air which are pretty fast, the point I'm trying to make is there is always a way to get a message out somehow. As such I find the discussion initiated by iKrolm and continued by Kankou rather childish.

Two spy rolls on Zoot. Same 50% odds.

first sabotage of ground weapons caches using 'infiltrate, run, boom tactics'
Second the same thing using trip wire or mine traps around caches

(both within Gallifrey)

Very simple messages, no one is arguing against that. However, we don't quite expect the relatively long public announcements to be picked up. Sorry, but seems like it's you who's looking at things too simply, never mind I'm sensing people are taking geography not as seriously as they should (sorry, but three allied navies in the area? What area? The Indian and the Norther Pacific which are both very far from New Guinea? Vietnam which is almost enclosed by OU thus forcing your fleet to take a long detour to get around? Palau, which is at the minimum of 1500 km away from the nearest point of Lavo controlled areas?).

But then, never mind. Thousands of kms and geopolitical positioning have never restricted people from having unrealistic reach or speed, has it?

Requesting rolls on [url="http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=110347&view=findpost&p=2958135"]these two nukes[/url].

Edit: I also wish to [url="http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=105517&view=findpost&p=2958423"]contest this[/url], as unlike false flag operations, Kankou is specifically asking to be able to RP Brigade members, aka. my citizens/soldiers, which is against the rules.

You've got to be kidding me, this doesn't fall under the spy system.

Tough luck man, two failed rolls.

First nuke is killed, second one a hit.

And I missed that specific part, that would be correct. Spy rolls do not change the basic rule that you can not rp the citizens of the other.

Incorrect, I'm disguising my troops as Brigade members and doing stuff. Think of what the Germans did in the West Front in WW2, especially the Battle of the Bulge.

For a specific example, [url="http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=110347&view=findpost&p=2957886"]here[/url] is I RPed the failure of the first two rolls.



Also, contesting Triyun's location of tunnels, which would require spy rolls. In addition, I'm going to have to say the general ignoring of the fact that we're dealing 2000+ km distances is slightly amusing.

Since the following is Tidy's response to my questioning of how many troops he has in England:

19:58 tidybowlman Kankou, nunya !@#$@#$ business.

I'll have to ask this in public: How many troops does he have in New Guinea?
