NEWSFLASH: Anarchy in Alecrast - Nation in shambles in HSA aftermath

[GeneralTacticus]

The situation in Centralis is currently quite similar to that in Greater Finland; the government has relocated to one of many crisis management centres, and has placed the military on high alert, while people all over the country are pouring into fallout shelters.

One last piece of information was not included in the previous update, and this is an explanation as to why an airburst produced fallout at all; it was apparently built with a cobalt jacket, which is designed to massively increase the amount of fallout and render the target area compeltely unlivable. Although the hieght at which it was detonated will mean that Alecrast itself will not suffer too badly, there is great risk for anyone living in the direction the wind blows it.

We are not sending in millitary police units in to Alecrast. We are now recieving report form our paratroopers on the ground. Our units will move in and help local authorities restore order to the country. About 20,000 troops trained as millitary police will soon be landing on the shores of Alecrast along with the 3rd Marine Corps. We are confident that will internation help we can restore order to the nation of Alecrast. Our troops have also been given medicine to help prevent thyroid cancer and have gear that will give them protecting against the fallout if any. We will also send in medical personal to help treat any people who have been exposed to the fallout.

The Holy Empire of Sheepstan, is apalled to what is happening in its nearest neighbour. Although no love is lost between the two of us, we do offer all our resources to track these perpertrators down. We withdraw our need for reperations, only an apology about the war minister will suffice. Futhermore we shall co-operate with regional forces to track down the attackers.

Our embassy staff still are missing. We would like to know where they are as much as you do. We believe the AI in Ubina has taken them. We also offer to take any Alecretian survivors to Sheepsta for medical treatment.

[Mr. President]

Please expect the Sheepstan embassy staff from Karakas to return to their homeland soon. The Militia transported them to a military base for processing, and they were then deported. The embassy will remain closed for the time being.

Krakas, what is the meaning of this outrage. Sheepsta has had nothing to do with terrorism, and we call it our crusade to eliminate it. I think if Krakas has something wrong with that then perhaps they are terrorists themselves?

AH-75 scout helicopters from the Karakas 1st Fleet have just passed over the Terribi Islands. They report that Sheepsta navy vessels have passed the island chain and are now deep in Alecrast's territorial waters. Additionally, several troop transport ships are beached on the beaches of the Terribi Islands.

We demand that Sheepsta explain its actions and withdraw from Alecrastian territory. Further erratic and aggressive behavior will result in serious retaliation.

We had commenced evacuation procedures for survivors of the nuclear attack. We currently have 1000 Alecrestian survivors, suffering from the signs of nuclear attack. We are treating them in transit to Sheepstan hospitals. We ask an Alecrestian government offical to come to Sheepsta to make sure this is up to scratch and no terrorism is taking place in shipping these patients.

Futhermore, we announce that aid shipments will commence tonight and Sheepstan Holy Gaurdsmen the elite forces of the Sheepstan Army, will start to drop into Alecrast to fight enemy forces, if the Alecrastian government agrees to this.

In antother announcement the Lord Protector is safe and sound in his command bunker. He is directing all operations in relation to Alecrast and has given authorisation to fire on any terrorist shipping.

Thanks to Centralis for providing me with this uplink. Our main electrical grids are still down, and will be for some time it seems.

Alecrast refuses help from Sheepsta. Considering the unknown origin of the Graphite and Nuclear weapons used against us, and the presence of the Sheepsta navy off our shores before the attack, you are....untrustworthy at best. Any Sheepsta "Holy Guard" entering Alecrast will be taken as a declaration of war.

As for the people of Alecrast, seeing as we have no news of Nuclear attacks on the Terribi islands (The airburst was in the middle of Lodoss, and all the other nuclear explosions, which were of the stolen warheads spontaneously going off when safety systems went offline after the Graphite weapons attack, were in silos deep in uninhabited wasteland), we find your story highly suspisious, and formally request that all refugees be taken to either Centralis or Karakas, not Sheepsta.

Now if you'll excuse me, the bloody Animal Liberation Front is staging another raid on our food stores.

Sheepsta, do not send any troops into Alecrast. We do not need your help. No nation in its right mind trusts a nation ruled by a man who changes his mind every second. This is a ODSN matter. Our troops are currently in Alecrast helping the people. If anyone needs evacuating we are more then able to profrom this. Do not interfer.

To the nation of Alecrast our troops are now within your borders and will help your own troops restore order to your nation. The evidence that your porvide indicates an attack by a nation that is technologicly advance. It seems to us they must have used Stealth Bombers, how else could they go unditected by your radar systems?

[Archaic]

The implementation of the Hunter Seeker Algorithm had many of our key defence systems down for short periods, though there was no point where all the systems were down at the same time. I concur. Stealth tech. is the only reasonable explanation.....I hope....

[Jack_www]

We will begin a formal investigation on this matter to see who attack you and why. Once we find the attacker we will respon, possibly with nuclear weapons if neccessary.

Our primary suspects are:
Akiria
Sovietskii

On second list
Sheepsta(all though this is in doubt, but they were at war with you at the time of attack).

We believe that one of the AI nations attacked when you were trying to get rid of the AI, and it responded by attacking.

[Archaic]

Potentially. I wouldn't put it past them using Sheepsta to attack me however. Sheepsta's already declared his support for them, and even if he didn't do it at their request, could they have got in the systems of his military already?

[red_jon]

The population of Redfern has been told to keep indoors as far as is possible, as it seems some radiation is likely to speaed to the Red Isles (due to the giant populations of the megacities of Red City, Red Rivers and Red Lake, the skyscrapers have extensive covered walkways connecting each other, as well as monorail services between buildings).

[Sheep]

The people of Sheepsta are shocked at these allegations. Although we have threatned Alecrast with them, we would not of used nukes unless absolutley necessary. All Alcrestian survivors in Sheepstan hospitals are making a recovery with the exception of a 76yo man who unfortuantley passed away. It is up to Alecrast to when they can handle the 3000 citizens of their country we are currently treating.

[Jack_www]

Sheepsta why are these people in your hospitals? Return them at once. You are not to help Alecrast, they refused your help. If any troops are spoted in Alecrast or even aid workers we will remove them our selfs. You do not get it?? We do not trust a madman. We do not need your help. SO STOP IN YOUR EFFORTS NOW.
