Shadowsage Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 The Samurai bowed in acknowledgment of the conflict. "We will do as we must." The Samurai and Dusk both strode purposefully back into the ship and moved to the helm. It rolled down the runway before picking up speed as its' twin jet engines heated fuel and propelled the air through the back. The craft lofted into the air and described a lazy arc before following the direction the Storm Dragons took. Two huge doors opened up on the bottom of the craft. A pylon with attachments for Air-to-Ground missiles extended and folded down from inside the aircraft. As missiles exited the bay, they were fed targeting information and launched with precision. Leaving havoc in its' wake, the Nobody Craft turned once more to follow the Dragons' course in the hopes of finding a runway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Vortex Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 The Dragons saw the nobody craft searching for a runway. They found a stretch of road that could possibly used, cleared it of debris and started signaling the nothings to land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerreyRough Posted February 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) Although boths attacks made the Kamloopsians wonder at the strange flying machines, it still no not stop the advance of thousands of troops and over one hundred artillery. However the Mounlantian movment of tens of thousands of troops, over 500 steam tanks, and several dozen Steam Flyers was deployed from Mounlantia. A real war was about to start in the States of Rock Atlantica... Edited February 16, 2009 by JerreyRough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Vortex Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Once the nothings had landed, the Dragons went back into flight. The two airdrakes (replacement for airmen) shot back up into the sky. They still had their guns left. They had 6x 0.50 in (12.7 mm) machine guns with 300 rounds a piece, it wouldn't kill much, but a solid strafing run might take out a good chunk of their leading foot forces. They took formation and then flew across the battlefield from left to right at high speed, MGs blistering through the front ranks of the Kamloopsian advance.

JerreyRough Posted February 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 (edited) OOC: I'm changing this to over a war for resources. Mounlantia has lots of coal, some cattle, not many trees & some aluminum. Kamloops has lots of cattle, no aluminum, lots of trees, and some coal. Victoria has lots of aluminum, some cattle, no coal & many trees. Forget the "WE WANTS TO KILL EVERYTHING!" that Kamloops was like. /OOC The small group of Kamloopsian soilders were getting hammered. THeir artillery under attack by new Mounlantian aircraft, the infantry being cut to ribbons by the scary aircraft, and Steam Tanks tanking out what was left, the enemy ran. And ran. And ran. They did not stop 'till Kamloops. Kamloops then moved into full military mobalization, fortifying it and developing new weapons. They called them "Rapid Bit Cannons" (RBC), akin to machineguns. Thus the war-zone of Merrit was once more taken and fortified. Meanwhile, within Mounlantia several Artures were thinkihng about the dragon designs. Then they started sketching. And soon they started to make a high-altitude bomber design. Parts for it were collected, and the prototype had begun to be tested.

Maelstrom Vortex Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 The Dragons went back to their diplomatic duties, they spoke to the leader of the Artures "We're having some problems with cannibals out east. Would you care to lend us your hand? Perhaps we can sign an alliance? We could defend each other and assist each other in attacks. We've already been doing this as a kind of good will, would you return us this honor?" It would ask through their translator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Through the translator, a official responded: "We would be quite glad to make an alliance, especially science we are now trading. We will not be able to lend a hand at this time, though, untill we defeat Kamloops. It will take all of the forces we can get to take them down."

Shadowsage Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 The Nobody craft touched down with a grace at odds with its' strange shape. The landing doors opened once more and the Samurai, the apparent leader of the delegation, stepped out. "He" strode confidently down the stairs and stopped, awaiting some sort of Rockland official to speak with. It pondered the transmission sent down by its superiors. "The situation is as such: we know of three entities which are composed governments other than ourselves. The Tropicans are likely peaceful; we will maintain attempts to reach them diplomatically." Another voice cut in. "The Dragons are strange, to be sure. I will have to ask them about their unique physiology, but it appears that the creatures are trustworthy." "These Rockland people are unusual. Their technology is blocky, crude. More important to us, however, is its' uniqueness. It would give us a leg-up in any research we conduct." A harsh voice interjected. The soft but demanding voice of Roxas finalized the matter. "Samurai, you have been thus instructed to offer an alliance with full benefits to both the Storm-Dragons and the Rocklanders. This includes but is not limited to military support and help with research. "You Have Your Orders." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will not be able to lend a hand at this time, though, untill we defeat Kamloops. It will take all of the forces we can get to take them down." The Storm Dragons produced a treaty for them to sign.... 1. Signatories agree not to war with each other. 2. Signatories of this treaty agree to free trade. 3. Signatories of this treaty grant freedom of military movement through their sovereign domains so long as the intent is solely transit. 4.

Signatories of this treaty agree to share intelligence of any geostrategic threats to their partners as soon as they become aware. 6. Signatories of this treaty pledge to co-operate in scientific research and development. (ooc: This allows Signatories to take advantage of a tech-sharing option if they wish and it would be beneficial. Please consult the tech-sharing formula in my signature.) 7.This treaty may be canceled anytime with a 24 hours Notice. 8. Signatories agree to support each other during times of war, defensive or aggressive although for an aggressive war, the other treaty member must be consulted at least 48 hours in advance of planned operations. >> Treaty Class: MDAP << Maelstrom Vortex, -- Emperor of the Storm Dragon Empire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This includes but is not limited to military support and help with research. "You Have Your Orders." OOC: Rocklanders? So you'll try to trade with peaceful Victoria, war-like Kamloops, and advanced Mounlantia? (side-note to self: there will be one more state, that'll be RP'ed later). The Storm Dragons produced a treaty for them to sign.... The Mounlantian officials talked. Then replied: "It will take us about 2 day to look this over and hold an assembly to see if our people really want this. In the mean time, we have this new design that we have finished to replace the current, slow tanks. We call them "Heavy Steam Tanks"!" OOC: Light green stands for areas where users would stand (I.e. the green stuff would not exist and underneath it there would the the floor & other stuff). "For your countries personel prefrences, we have re-designed it to this:" "...Which has a dual-heavy antiaircraft machine-gun on top, two side cannons, and the unique main cannon-turret."

Maelstrom Vortex Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 "We really like these. Replace our current shipment orders with the new models if you could." The trade minister would say. "Huge improvement over previous designs." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
