Let's just say you already shipped them to somewhere near the Shadow Empire (PeZookia, Syndromia, Vanaheim)?

Well, you do have submarines. Perhaps some of them also have special forces teams ready for amphibious deployment?

Well of course. I try to plan ahead, after all!

How about an upcoming internal FUN training maneuver in Shroomania that I arrived early for?

New Gottlands BAMFs is always ready to kick some ass. I also have a sweet An-225 for some heavy lifting if any of my less fortunate allies needs it.

Must resist urge to go Zalbania on all their asses.

Oh well, say who wants to pick up the bill since now the Shadow Empire lies mostly in ruins? Coupe's have a bad habit of resulting in blown up power plants, destroyed industry and the like.

I don't think the coup was THAT bad, man

I don't think the damage will be that bad. Most of the fighting was done within the city's.

And so it begins....

You mean to tell me, when a General of the Military stages a coup, backed up by tanks, planes and helicopters, VS a rebel group, that there is not going to be damage? Sure both sides don't want to do to much damage to their old/new prize but your talking about a full-blown war.

Even if the military split 60/40 there's going to be wide-spread devistation, if it's 80/20 not so much, but then how can the Emperor come back to power with that huge of a deficient in support?

We've read of firing in the streets, bombings, not yet carpet bombings, you think they've kindly ignored local power stations and the like?

Master_Baerne · Post by **Master_Baerne** » 2008-05-21 03:25pm

Even if the damage wasn't bad, it will be shortly.

DarthShady · Post by **DarthShady** » 2008-05-21 06:34pm

The damage can be repaired , in time the empire will grow strong again. Stronger than before.

If anyone else, who is taking part in operation "Wrath of the Emperor", wants to make a post please do so within the next 6-8 hours. I plan to finish this civil war when i wake up.

Wait, I must've missed something. When did we start posturing in your waters?

On another note, since the conference died down of its own accord and we still have that weird time slowdown thing, and you haven't said anything otherwise, what you PMed about is going to take place soon.

I would also like to state that as the merchant you should have felt obliged to deliver them yourself, I shouldn't have been forced to retrieve them unless specifically stated by you (no such specification was clearly made). Hell, the last time I PMed you, around the New Year in game, you claimed to still only have 15 frames ready hence I can legitimately claim a New Patrian delay.

I claim that I never said I would deliver them, and that I was a touch confused as to what in game day it was.

Now Shut up or I'll give you a dose of instant sunshine.

Fair enough on the delivery aspect but I still pointed out in the PM that it was New Years when I asked about an update and you still failed to ever send notification the order was complete (again, you claimed only 15 airframes then). The root cause is your failure to notify me about the order's completion. I have made perfectly clear from the start that I would only accept the order upon completion, meaning all 21 airframes. I would not accept the order otherwise.

So, if you want to be childish about the whole thing feel free that doesn't change the fact that you still failed to provide a timely delivery.

Hey Shroom, do a low altitude insertion with the F-15s. Does the SHadow Empire have high altitude SAMs?

Post by **The Yosemite Bear** » 2008-05-21 10:06pm

Apparently not after the latest attacks....

BTW any one want to put any bets on who shor down my blimp?

Also anyone who can find the Airship where it went down and can retreve the "Black Box" getting info from the pilots, and finding out when the blimp was actually hit, and from where would be most helpful.

.

Well your country has interesting internal issues so I'm saying that's to blame.

About your men in Libertopia, how long have they been there and who invited them in? I know Alexander doesn't have any troops in his areas that aren't specificaly invited. I also know I ould have very well missed their arrival. The way I wrote my post on the matter leaves wriggle room, as the incident is now said to have happened in a lawless border region.

Low altitude insertion? Like, flying low to blow crap up? or flying low to insert soldiers? (?!)

Not anymore

note: The Pentat is the name for the Bear Republic's answer to the CIA, though the five main Reps for the Pentat have actually met with a Protech officer at one point, they mostly keep to themselves. It's also noted that those five individuals do not look like what one would suspect a group of intel. experts to look like. Namely they are about as strange as "L"'s group in Deathnote. Also note that the Pentat is in control of some of the best coders in the New World, purhaps only rivaled by those working for Tonkin.

Sugarcrush- hypoglycemic, in charge of computer security devision
Professor M- Obsessive Compulsive, aspergers sufferer very good at cyphers, in charge of analysis devision, also the oldest board member at (43)
Shiela- red haired punker, in charge of the observation network & field agents.

note

Peacemakers are the Bear Republic's Police Force. They do have some counter terrorist training, however since 70% of the Peacemakers are of the Norse faith, curruption. particularly collusion with "Berserker Gangs" and by extension those criminals that hire Norse Berserkers as muscle/security is fairly rife. However those not of Norse faith, and the actual majority of the Peacemaker officers are appaled and horrified by this. The republic's solution to the Libertopian problem has been what they are refering to as "Work Aid"

Since Libertopians won't accept standard aid, and it just gets hijacked anyways, the BR set up airship trade ports that also contained hospitals and schools. They began systematically hiring locals for everything at inflated wages (actually very low by BR standards, but very high by libertopian standards.) Secondarily given the BR's very lazy tendancies, their solution for the Sultanate was to kill two birds with one stone. Having a number of counter-terrorism and community relations officers of Moslim faith being threatened by Norse co-workers, the BR, simply moved them along with "Deputies" (various community based Neighborhood watch/Vigilante group members) to the Sultanate to set up the Republic's airship base there. The Northern Delegation knowing that occupation of LAND in the Sultanate would be an insult, and concerned about piracy and smuggling out of Migidishu, built an Oil platform like structure, as an airship port/Peacemaker precient house.

however since the majority of the Republic's police presence in the North has been operating as Under cover, and are all primarily targeting certain criminal groups, and paying lots of informants. A strike against a group of criminals on the Sultanate's border with Alexander, made the Republic Police look like they were an Insurgent group. This was made worse, as the smugglers are logically maintaining their fortresses in the desputed territory so as to avoid getting attacked without starting a full on war.

oh and since the BR is Californication, the Head of the BR Peacemakers is Harry Calahan, and the standard Peacemaker side arm is an oversized revolver. The Peacemaker's symbol is a Badge, with a revolver in the center of it. Oh and for a police force they carry a suprising amount of firepower. (Go figure they are led by Detective Calahan....)

The war is over.

Now its time to clean up.

Post by **K. A. Pital** » 2008-05-22 08:24am

Your nation got heavily ravaged and it's military utterly destroyed, with landings and ground combat, and bombings - unlike the last small war with Shroomania where you just got the aviation and ships sunk, as well as some limited missile strikes.

Need a helping hand?

Turn to SOCIALISM and we will give some stuff for free!!!

If i turn to socialism, can i still be emperor? Or do i have to change that?

Why not. Claim some sort of Jamahirya, or, say, Orthodox Socialism as your new doctrine. You can then choose whatever title you like

I'm not sure you'd be accepted into the OMSK or MESS given how unstable your nation is, and that's why I lend a hand

Gettin influence

Don't worry, the "peacekeeping forces I'll be sending over, as soon as the senate realizes whats really going on, will probably be sending you some toys...

or at least building a new air base, and shipping lots of attack Helos and GEVs to your country sort of...
