The Frankychan / Azan Situation

[Guardian]

Here's another one of Basus' Admiraliteit.

[OOC: USS John C. Stennis in real life. ]

[Basus]

Basus's military is focussed on aireal defence and attack strenght. Our second area of attention is our navy. Our land forces come last. We are an island so we focused on our defence. Currently Basus is building a aircraftcarrier simular to the Charles de Gaulle.

[Guardian]

Here is the Guardinian carrier Indiscriminate Justice - flagship of the 2nd Fleet - with her strike group. These ships are currently all serving with the joint Cerooan-Guardinian fleet.

General Yoon Hana's Field-office, Free Azan

"Sounds good Colonel. We'll use your people as a rapid response team. We do have something of a command structure, but it's far more egalitarian than most. Just use your initiative and follow Azan's lead - this is their fight, after all. You have a good head on you, that'll help.

"And for the record, Noosland does have a good reputation in Jonchastan. It's precisely because you're not like Auldoninna that I'm trusting you."

[Lazerus]

Inside the Hive Shortly after General FrankyChans transmission to Auldoninna had been relayed

A large circular table, carved from marble but polished black filled the centre of the room, around it adorning the walls were screens flickering from news reports in foreign countries, spy satellite images and footage from soldiers on the ground. Chairman Lazerus sat at one point with the chiefs of naval, ground and airforces sat close together at the opposite end discussing matters of the Azani war and the threat towards their ally General FrankyChan from Auldoninna.

"Have the league or Cerroo-Guardinian forces launched a major attack on our forces yet ?"

"No Chairman, currently we're heavily entrenched, dug in tanks, SAM systems, artillery the works as well as supplying nearby FCL forces with excess weaponary not being used. Further advancement would mean we'd be entering enemy weapon range and as instructed in previous orders we've come to a halt awaiting your decision, however we have suffered an incursion by Auldoninna in Tel Azan"

"How serious? Is it a coordinated attack with either of the other two alliances ?"

"They're blowing up more of the city then we are at the moment, doubt the others will be best pleased with them about that, especially since theyre all in the business of limiting civilian casualties. We do have a small garrison in that city of about 2,000 troops which is currently surrounded, we have a chance to take the initiative and wipe out the incursion when the Auldoninians begin firing on them or advance to take them captive. There are two choices, we either order heavy airstrikes which would in my estimate destroy around 7% of the cities infrastructure, or there are several divisions numbering more then 20,000 in the immediate vicinity of the city who could surround the Auldoninians in turn and begin shelling their positions"

"Either way those impudent humitarians claim an excuse to launch an offensive ...... tell me the world knows our forces are there and under attack and nearby buildings are taking heavy damage right ?"

"Definately, reports of it are on enemy news stations"

"Return to your position then and await new orders"

The Chief of Infantry stood up, bowed to the Chairman, and walked out of the room with thundering footsteps. A talented man gifted with complete analytical thinking and the pure physique of a hand to hand soldier he was.

"I see air superiority is reported as complete within FCL, diverting resources meant for the Hives mining industry has vastly increased output while not putting too large a dent on our ability to sustain this war over a large period of time, however why am i still seeing reports of enemy bombing raids Quin Chi?"

"Chairman the reports are greatly exaggerated, only the nation of Auldoninna has dared to attempt a bombing raid against us, most damage was done by incoming cruise missiles, and those are trying to hit specific locations rather then maximum damage. The last bombing raid we succesfully engaged the enemy air force and they fled losing 39 bombers and 12 fighters in the retreat. It is why i believe the other nations are hesitant to attack us."

"Make sure it stays that way, I do not want the positions on the ground to be strafed from the air, dismissed"

"And finally" The Chairman focusing with an intense gaze on the Chief Naval officier Kim Tse Jui
"Why is it we are still such a miniscule presence on the oceans?"
Kim could hear the growling in the Chairmans voice, deep, low and restrained. The Chairman never let his emotions get the better of his judgment but this tedious war with all of its treachery and little to be gained but a scrawny piece of land in a previously forgotten part of the world were starting to tug on the outskirts of even his mind.

"Chairman we not yet have constructed ships of the quality of certain nations but we do have dozens more battlegroups on call should they be needed, we are more then capable of defending our home waters but the sheer amount of navies from different nations present off the south coast of Azan it would be fuetile sending ships down there, it would be wise instead to keep them safe from enemy attacks until a more suitable use then patrol boat can be found for them."

"I want those ships in the water now..... they have just found their use."

OOC: So is Azan accepting my help, or what?

[Lazerus]

ooc: cool pics Guardinia shoulda gassed you aswell by now so you coulda posted that in context

[Lazerus]

Tel Azan, surrounded Hive soldiers

A blast of debris rocketed from a small house in Tel Azan, an artillery hit from somewhere by the looks of it. Hive soldiers were scattered around in the nearby streets, firing into the crowd of Auldoninna soldiers surrounding them whilst taking fire from all angles.

"Sir device is in place"
"Get a man on that roof, fire several rockets as far as possible into the outskirts where they've got artillery, ready the camera to record a broadcast back"

The Hive soldier emerged onto the roof of the house and was promptly handed a rocket launcher. Drawing attention to himself he began wildly firing into the distance, 3..4 rockets arced over the buildings, explosions and clouds of dust seen in the background. He knelt down to reload and time seemed to flow as slowly and smoothly as a placid river as the air behind him whislted as it was tore apart a bullet. He looked down, a hole in his chest, his black jacket a motled soaked mixture of colours now.

Camera recording
~
The Hive soldier dropped flat on his face as a shell curved into the building behind him, the camera swirled away looking at several Azani civilians dashing across the street screaming ... a blinding flash, and the bodies of soldiers and civilians alike could be seen flying across the street before the camera itself was destroyed

Fecundity Tower

"We have secondary camera pictures backing up the initial Agent Ping, devastating cluster bombs being used in civilian populated areas wiping out dozens of streets, the other nations, and the Azani's won't take too kindly to Auldoninna with this"

"Excellent work, send it to the Hive for approval and then broadcast it"



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Port Svensguard
Definately one of the larger ports located around the Hive and buzzing with activity, submarines were queuing up for their ration stocks to be filled to max and one after one they submerged and headed out west to sea.



Later that night

"Sir unarmed enemy merchant ship 32 naut miles NEE heading SSE at 15 knots"
"Lay in an intercept course, full speed, fire 2 torpedos when gaps at 19, give them no chance"

In the darkness of the night two blasts tore through the small ship, its cargo erupting in a ball of flames as hull snapped in half and began its descent to a watery grave.

"Thats 3 now sir !"
Said merry sailor in a sinister gloating voice, obviously taking delight in the chase and kill game that was to be their mission for the foreseeable future.

[Lazerus]

OOC : Any wannabe sailors here know the speed etc measurements they use at sea ? 1 knot = ?

[Guardian]

OOC: Oh dear, oh dear! Auldoninna got caught looking bad again!

But what's this I hear about blowing up unarmed merchants?!
Is the Hive targetting Auldoninnan ships carrying supplies to the war zone?
In that case, with the Hive being at war with Auldoninna, it would appear those ships are legitimate targets for the Hive navy to attack. Also, there is no alliance between us an Auldoninna, so it looks like this just might be one of those battles we choose not to fight - for the moment...

What's happening on the ground further south is a different story... More on that tomorrow.

1 knot = 1 nautical mile per hour

1 nautical mile = 1 852 meters or roughly 1,15 US miles

[Rasputin]

oh well i know i not wanted here...

[joncha]

OOC: I wouldn't say that Ras. Auldoninna may not be trusted, but you are wanted here.

[Az]

message to Al Mastif: Alternate proposal: raids inside Hive and FCL territory, to disrupt supplies. We have all the forces we need, here.

[Rasputin]

Ill leave it to you guys t osort out...

What was once fun has now become too bothersome....
