Triyun Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 (edited) [i]Some Place in West Caucasia[/i] "Wait that place is still sovereign?" Jia asked rather amazed at the assertion. "Yes. But we haven't heard a peep from its leaders in years. We believe its regressed to a level of society below even that of the most inactive of Governments. With our Indian Ocean holdings secure, we'd be capable of mounting an operation to seize control of it and use that to develop a major rear area base for the further operations going forward. The Athenians have also expressed interest in investing in developing a port there. Things have been a bit shaken by your boiling Germans alive, but luckily Visari's conduct has been our greatest tool with rebuilding the Athenian Alliance. We expect offering some access there would also help the situation." Jia rubbed his Chin before nodding. "Plus no doubt the god damn Canadians would be interested in picking off such a defenseless piece of land on the backs of others as been their habit so far." Jia then rose. "Alright we better do it before they do. For the Horde." [i]Crozet Islands, Tianxia.[/i] The fifth and eleventh air combat brigade teams were ordered to taxi off the runway. Supporting them was the Imperator II Class Super Carrier and its air wing and support fleet. Two squadrons of F-5s super quantum fighters supported by a support wing of three EWAC Skyhawk providing jamming, four A-47 drones providing reconnaissance, and two skyhawk AWACs would create a stealthy screening force to clear. Tianxia's stealth air transports would be over their targets within a matter of hours, dropping a total of 6000 light infantry into Natal. This would swiftly be followed by a squadron landing at the capital city airport unloading an air traffic control crew and several land vehicles, clearing the way for future build up as planes began moving from SE Asia in a Indian Ocean Skybridge. Also enroute would be an amphibious strike group to offload its mechanized amphibious battalion onto the shore to further reinforce the expected build up. Signals were sent to the Athenians clearing the way for them to setup their own command center and trade depot in the area.

Centurius Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 "We really let them live in those conditions for so long?" Valerio asked as his military staff briefed him on the situation, with Ariadne on a quest of some kind final authority was his. "I fear so your Highness, with the Indian threat we were unable to focus our efforts on the area right now however this is different. We propose joining Tianxia in their operation to surprise the local warlords with a decisive show of force. We have a MOB ready in the South Atlantic in addition we have the HNS Poseidon only a few hundred nautical miles from Natal. We expect a victory at minimal casualties" Valerio nodded as he looked at the papers on his desk. "Do it." --- Mere minutes after the Tianxian attack began the Hellenic one would follow. Two squadrons of F-5s and a squadron of F-1s commanded by 3 U-2As, 3 U-2Bs and 2 U-2Cs would serve multiple missions, first they would jam local defenses, second they would establish air superiority and third they would be a deterrent for other powers trying to interfere. A few hours after this attack Airbus A400Ms would deploy around 5000 Thracians belonging to the First Army while further forces were en route by ship.

AironthFlamewing Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 OOC: Not to whine or anything but I thought Botha had it mandated that Natal would remain on the map "forever"? Correct me if I'm wrong- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kankou Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 OOC: More importantly, isn't this practically an invasion of Vedran, since he only had Natal added to the map in respect of Botha's wishes? As far as I see it, Natal is just part of Vedran which is marked separately as a map. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triyun Posted January 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 OOC: If Vedran wants to take it as an invasion of his territory, I'm not going to whine about that IC. As for Botha's wishes. Botha is not a god nor is he an active player. Its entirely up to the current players if they wish to respect that or care that much. I obviously don't, but I welcome [i]IC[/i] comments to the topic, from those who disagree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axolotlia Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 The People's Republic of Africa considers the mainland of this continent to be for African nations only. We request that you reconsider your actions and leave the African mainland for Africans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fizzydog Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 The East-American Union is also confused by the Horde's actions. Why do you think you have ANY control over Africa? We suggest handing over Natal to Vedran or any other native nation rather than consuming it into your greedy empire. They are not, and will never be, at your jurisdiction.

Kankou Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Given the fact Grand Papua is preoccupied with terrorists, we shall only say that given the existence of Arctica, we find this move to be very unusual. We shall support the African countries should they protest this occupation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Zephyr Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 One of the reasons Rebel Army, and ally of yours, has set up the protection of africa the way they have, is to prevent actions such as these. As I understand it after the fall of Transvaal jurisdiction of Natal fell to Arctica. You would invade Arctica and Africa as a whole for natal? Haven supports PRA's statement.

Kankou Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Natal was under the protection of Arctica, and we see no indication that Natal was being governed below standard. Perhaps the Horde should leave the Africans to deal with their own affairs. Or is it that certain people are trying to hide their own bloody hands by "liberating" others who do not need such liberation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Timmy Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 *** Classified *** The recent efforts of the Tianxians had certainly made Dario Marrón, New Panama's now rogue defence contractor, take notice. They were sure as hell being ambitious, Dario couldn't help but smile. He had his own ambitions but not involving Natal and certainly not involving Tianxia. Perhaps their paths would cross in the future but it was unlikely at best. A single message was sent openly and addressed to the emperor and empress.

Executive Minister Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 We were unaware that Natal had fallen into such a state. This is a most distressing turn of events - the Principality would need to wait for confirmation from the Arctican government on Natal's state of dilapidation before it decides to act, if at all.

KaiserMelech Mikhail Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 While half the Marscurian Siberian army waited around the middle of Kazakhstan, the second half of the army was given a special reward. They were transferred to the Tianxian Foreign Legion, a move that came with double pay and no income taxes. They were given a new patch to put over the Marscurian Siberian flag on their uniform jackets. It was the flag of the Tianxian Horde, but the normally grey wolf was in Marscurian orange, a move that showed that they served under Tianxia, but were still Marscurian Siberian nationals. After that, the half army, 25,500 men, 30 MBTs, 10 heavy tanks, 10 tank destroyers, and half the army's mortars and artillery were on their way south. Only able to move as fast as the trains could carry them, it would be a several day journey to Kochi, India, where they were directed.
