[/quote]
*** Classified to Australia ****

Yes, Louisiana will blame NoN for their unprovoked attack on Louisianans. It is a well publicized fact that Louisiana holds a base within Port International. Obviously NoN took the time to aim their attacks, so they would have seen the Louisianan flag flying above the base if they had any decent intelligence in the area, which, obviously they did since they knew it was a military compound.

[b]3/4ths of the Way to the Sudanese/NoN border[/b]

The men of 1st, 2nd, and the 3rd Sudanese Regiments have made steady progress. Their different routes towards the border are in various states of disrepair. They are in no real hurry and they take their time leaving behind them repaired roads, bridges, and newly established supply points. The work is hard, the hours are long, but the men of the regiments are ready and willing to perform the labor needed to secure proper lines of supply.

With airstrikes being reported by the African Legion battalion at the border the three regiments have been halted in place until a delivery of ground to air missiles and such can be delivered. Until then they are quietly resting under camouflage netting. The real work is to their rear as dozens of supply points are being equipped with heavy machine guns, fuel, munitions, and the spare parts needed to keep a fleet of supply vehicles in the field.

Each of these supply points are guarded by a Sudanese Security company and staffed with cargo handlers, mechanics, cooks, and medical staff. The Security companies are filled with the veterans of various other military forces from years gone by. They haven't yet been through the Sudanese Training Schools in order to acclimatize themselves with the SDF protocols. However, their static defense role is easy enough for the simplest of minds to understand and the majority of these men are far from simple. With these bases the ability to transport tonnes of cargo is possible.

A small but quickly growing fleet of 10 tonne cargo trucks are being assembled to the rear along with specially equipped AXE Escort Vehicles. The priority being placed on the production of the vehicles has stalled the Warrior ICV production. However, after hours of debate at the highest levels of the Sudanese government an understanding has been reached that the SDF role will be a supportive one given the manpower limitations the SDF faces at this current time. The man saddled with the responsibility of overseeing the Red Ball routes is one General Charles White.


The General's first task is to greatly expand the capacity for the Sudanese/Sarmungian forces to defend and attack with their aerial assets. Three abandoned air strips are being restored to full capacity bringing the full complement of Sudanese Air Strips up to four. Those being Port Sudan, Dagger One, Dagger Two, and Dagger Three. Artemis Airdefense Platforms are put in place at each of of the newly opened strips along with companies of Sudanese infantry from the 1st Battalion of the 4th Regiment. The first aircraft to arrive at the Dagger strips are squadrons of armed Mi-8 helicopters.

From these massive beasts equipment and supplies are vomited and the helicopters are quickly returned to base for more(enjoy all of you eating dinner.. tee hee hee). The second wave of aircraft to arrive are squadrons of OV-10 Broncos and C-130s carrying their ground support crews. Of course, the C-130s also carry tonnes more of supplies in the form of parts, fuel, and perishable goods. The men scurry about their new homes to make them ready as they have a great deal of work to do to hold up their end of the operation and failure isn't an option to these hard bitten men of the SDF.

We are in need of some sort of aerial defense platform that we can issue out to our troops to protect the lines of supply and advance that we are in the process of creating. We are looking for man portable and a vehicle mounted system. To date we've advanced nearly 3/4ths of the way to our border and have established three 'Red Ball Routes'. These routes, we hope, will serve as lines of supply and possibly lines of advance for the Sarmungian forces. The Sudanese Defense Force is currently deploying nearly 3/4ths of our total manpower to secure these lines and will be devoting more manpower to keep supplies moving to the front as well.

Also, be aware that we now have 3 more Airstrips available for use by Sarmungian forces. The locations of Dagger 1 through 3 will be included in this classified document.

NoN uniforms will be arriving at your location shortly. Equip the cultist forces with said uniforms and dispatch them into the heart of NoN to destroy, harass, and sabotage military targets. Direct terror attacks on civilian targets are not permitted. However, should they see an opportunity to encourage the NoN civilians to flee without actually killing any of them they should take it. The chaos created by the fleeing civilians would only add to the confusion.

Remove all identification from the Cultists.
Remove all identifiable items.
Send no more than 200 for the first wave of attacks in groups of four.
All maps used are to be removed of any Sudanese Republic markings as well.

-Mad Dog Bob Denard

The Commander of the Terrible ones reads his orders again and asks no one in particular, "Oh hell, we are in for it now aren't we?"

He turns his attention back to cases of uniforms that have just been dumped out of the Mi-8 helicopters along with several other items. Items such as anti-vehicle mines, claymores, and other nasty little devices designed to harass the NoN forces for days on end. He turns to the Asian looking chap in charge of the Cultist and says, "Well, time to put all that sneaky training to use," as he explains their mission.

Also, the Commander, very carefully states that survival of the forces in the field is a paramount goal in order for them to continue their attacks over a prolonged period of time with the special forces training they've received from their African Legion trainers. Longevity of mission is far more important that sensational martyr missions and he explains this with great care as he describes how a few well motivated men can tie down thousands if they work at it hard enough.

[center][b]Louisianan Declaration of War[/b][/center]

On February 17 2009, on the Generalissimo Standard Calendar, military forces from the nation of Louisiana were attacked without justification or warning by the Nation of Nod. Since these unjustified attacks against Louisiana, no communication, of any sort, has come from the Nation of Nod to express their forgiveness for their unwarranted attack against the peaceful Louisianan contingent in Port International. Not only have innocent Louisianan servicemen lost their lives while celebrating Mardi Gras with Sarnungian civilians but the Nation of Nod has also seen fit to launch an attack against the Louisianan base inside Port International where sleeping Louisianan servicemen were injured as their barracks were blown apart.

The unprovoked attack against Louisianan military members in Port International means Louisiana now enters into a state of war with the Nation of Nod. The Nation of Nod will surrender unconditionally or they will be destroyed.

Regards,

Michael Croix
Chancellor of Louisiana

While unfortunate, we understand your sentiments. You have been tricked by the machinations of man who has just realized he has bitten off quite more than he can chew.

The Sarnungian King put your civilians at risk by inviting them aboard a Supercarrier while his nation was in the middle of a live war. Nothing more, nothing less.

As for the civilians themselves, we can only express our heartfelt sorrow and remorse for their deaths. The Nation of Nod does not condone the wanton slaughter of civilians, nor do our warriors find pleasure in killing those who cannot defend themselves- its unbecoming, you know. The lead pilot responsible for the strike is being 'punished' as we speak (OOC: Suicide mission anyone?).

As for our failure to apologize after the strikes, the crafty Sarnungians failed to put the key piece of information in their press release that those civilians belonged to you. As for the Louisianian Barracks, Sargun had repeatedly stated the base was undergoing the transformation into a military base, and we assumed any personnel that would have been stationed were away, as the barracks was unfinished.

If you wish to continue with Truth and Reconciliation efforts with us, we would gladly deign your requests. If you do not, we shall meet on the field of battle.

[Executive Minister]

Four more 'bombers' took off from Adahunat Airbase. They were not far from the already airborne Angel one and Angel two groups, and they headed for the same direction the force was going. Soon, they were well within Sudanese airspace.

Angel one proceeded towards the Sarnungian/Sudanese border at maximum combat ceiling. They had their afterburners on and were poised for strike and aerial interdiction attacks. The lead Black Widows, four of them, scanned and scanned with their active phased array low intercept radars for incoming hostiles. Should this primary array fail, their EOSS (Electro-optical Sensor suite) would fill in the blanks.

Little did the Sarnungians know, Angel one was primarily equipped with air-to-air munitions. The Black Widows themselves were air superiority fighters, and the Deathstalkers were potent combatants Within Visual Range and, with the Black Widows acting as miniature AWACs craft, could deal damage Beyond Visual Range. The Deathstalkers would attract the most attention- their stealth profiles were no where near the characteristics of the Widows. The Widows would stand by and fire BVR missiles in support of the Deathstalkers.

Angel two proceeded towards the Sarnungian border, albeit at a slower and much much lower altitude. Radar coverage is limited by mechanical and terrain considerations, and the stealth bombers in conjunction with their Black Widow Escorts would wind their way behind the Jebel Uweinat mountain range, where they would be shielded by the mountains, located at the nominal Libyan, Sudanese, Egyptian border, from Sarnungian radars until they were poised to strike. Care was to be taken by Angel two not to cross into Rebel Army territory.

The plan was for the bombers to fire their stand-off heavy cruise missiles at nuclear silos, followed by a near suicidal bombing campaign of purely militant sites with conventional laser guided bombs.

OOC: I've used laser guided bombs this time, so Sarg, you can't just go LOLCIVVIES this time around. <3.

[b]Port Sudan International Airbase[/b]

Dozens of SDF Special forces operatives are busy making ready for the next movement. Having just been pulled of the field they are finding themselves somewhat surprised at their new assignment. Their orders read:

[i]Most Classified:

Prepare for aerial drop by taking on a full load of special purpose munitions. C-130s and other aircraft will be made available just before you mission. [/i]

The one hundred and eighty special forces troopers pass their time by cleaning their weapons, sleeping, running, and playing football. Their equipment being some of the best the SDF can muster is kept immaculately clean. Their special purpose explosive demolitions charges and anti-personnel devices are kept with their kit for the purposes of rapid deployment. For the most part they wander the base just trying to stay out of the way of any eagle eyed Sudanese Loadmaster looking for an idle pair of hands to put to work. The Specfor operatives aren't the only one being redeployed away from the front.

The African Legion 2nd Battalion and 3rd Battalion is deployed to the Airbase as well. They to have a special mission of their own. The four hundred men are carefully deployed to extend the 20th Battalion's current perimeter. With those two battalions comes the 2nd and 3rd Battalions of the 4th Regiment to extend the perimeter even further. The positions created throughout the base are carefully designed to give the soldiers manning them a 360 degree field of fire. Dozens of heavy machine guns are placed to provide a heavy volume of fire should it be needed. They are heavily reinforced with sandbags, cement, and steel shutters. The growing base is further provided with over 3 dozen 82 millimeter mortars and crews to man them.

To the east of the Port Sudan Airbase the men of the newly formed 5th and 6th Regiments are being put through their paces. They are incredibly green soldiers, their officers newly trained, but they are well-equipped and in good spirits. Their primary and only responsibility is the defense of Port Sudan. they are pure infantry formations with no attached mechanize support given the scarcity of vehicles. However, their mission being a static one presents no need of a heavy mechanized component. They are given a certain advantage that the rest of the field forces lack.

That being the use of the only battery, of 12 weapons, of 105 millimeter howitzers. These artillery pieces, considered antiquated by some, are still in good repair and are well supplied. With them are thirty very old, but in good working condition, Katyusha 132mm truck mounted rocket launchers. There are also the four Patriot missile batteries that the Sudanese technicians are learning to operate under the tutelage of the New Canadian forces. All of these weapons are carefully dispersed throughout the city of Port Sudan. Given the civilian casualties incurred by the Sarnungian Republic a general civilian evacuation is being made to cities farther up to the coast.

The Artemis Soldiers are shown to their camps that are divided into groups of five thousand. This keeps the strain on the Port Sudan water and sewer systems down to a minimum. Each camp is equipped with a large mobile kitchen, bathing area, tents, and sports equipment to keep the Artemis forces occupied until they are sent to the front, which shouldn't be too much longer. The majority of the tents are large army surplus tents found in an abandoned warehouse stamped with the markings of an Army long since gone from Africa. While the Artemis forces see to their own security in the individual camps the cooking and such is handled by the Sudanese Defense Force.

[b]Red Route 1[/b]


The men of the 1st Regiment are hard at work digging in. With additional airdefense units delivered they are ordered to hold in place. Their commander keeps them busy by having them running local patrols and entrenching themselves for protection against air attacks. No one really comments on the company of African Legion troopers that pass through their lines to join the African Legion 5th Provisional Battalion at the border.

[b]Red Route 2[/b]

The men of the 2nd Regiment occupy their time in the same manner of the men of the 1st Regiment. Local patrols and digging in. Some of them are excited as they are mere miles away from Khartoum and rumors are flying that they may well be seeing action soon in order to snatch the jewel of Sudan back from the forces of NoN. Nothing has been confirmed, but rumors as always have a tendency of getting around.

Either way, the common heritage shared among the men of the 2nd Regiment and those in Khartoum excite them all for the potential of a few family reunions.

[b]Red Route 3[/b]

The men of 3rd Regiment having the farthest to go are just now arriving. They set to work fortifying their position with swift movements. Their job is simple, prepare for movement all the way to the border in support of a possible Sarnungian offensive.

Launched is past tense.. as in.. in the air. Prepared to launch.. as in.. sitting in silos being fueled and readied.
