Big Huge War Thread V: March Madness

[JT3]

OOC: Interesting this huge outbreak of wars happens during the March Madness tournament in the NCAA.....

OOC: How does Ireland have 200 tornados? If real life, i don't think the Uk has anymore than 150. And real Uk is stronger the Ireland. I have tried to be realistic in my armed forces but others don't seem to be bothered by economic constraints

Edit: Went to the RAf web site and did the math. UK has just over 200 Tornados. Anyone know how many Ireland has?

Edit: Germany has 4 squadrons of Tornadoes or a total of 48 from Luftwaffe website. Now where did the other 152 come from?

Edit: Ya, i'll let the mods handle this. Don't mean to be a ***** but having an airforce that size in a nation hostile to me that close is not a good thing.

OOC:
Okay JT3, I'll change the story, but what do you want? A mass slaughter? We got rid of those LMF people, either way.

[EDIT] (tornado matter) Okey-Dokey. Good thing this was confined to two posts.

I shall repeat my post which I deleted, as most won't see it.

UK:
Once again you make unacceptable offers.
We are not afraid. We have 200 Tornadoes and our factories are producing more. See how much foreign support you have. It's not likely to increase when you bomb civilian targets. The invasion continues.

We will not pay for what is rightly ours.

OOC: Back to the chase, eh? Mao, who said I was done?

IC:

More of the I-VIII Corps has been going through Burma today. With the recent capture of parts of Burma, Greater India hopes to have the entire territory by the end of a two weeks period. We guarentee the citizens of Burma (not the military though) that they will not be harmed, it is the territory we want.

We would like to purchase a mediocre amount of amphibious tanks, if possible. Please contact us immediately no matter what the answer is.

Thank you,

The bulk of the Royal navy was just returning from the Canadian battlefields when it got the order to escort HMS Fearless and Intrepid as they ferryed 5,500 Royal Marines.(Elite Soldiers) All of the Marines launched the operation as news that the Irish had not accepted the peace offer. 5,500 marines moved in to join the 10,000 British soldiers already there with 3,000 in Belfast alone. Once Belfast was secure 30 Hercules aircraft begin to come into the airport bringing 23,000 Soldiers from Britain in multiple sorties. Then the troop ships bringing soldiers back from Canada arrived adding another 50,000 soldiers to the defense of northern Ireland. The Raf was securing air superiority over Northern Ireland with support from multitudes of Rapier SAM batteries. Then the 86,000 soldiers with the support over 250 Crusader tanks and 300 old Challenger 1's began make preparations to drive the irish back to the border.

To Ireland,

You are correct, the N.I. situation is more important then our national integrity. You want all of Ireland, a situation we wholeheartedly understand. But you must see if from our position, we have lost our North American partners and if we give up Northern Ireland without a fight then the people would see the Government as weak and cowardly. We do not care about N.I. but need something to show off the British people in exchange, be that $50 million or anything else you can offer. We will drive you out of N.I. if you do not make giving it up worth the hell we will have to pay with the people.

To Argentina,

Pull out of our Island territories or we will drive you out. Do you want a repeat of the last war? The people of those Islands will support us as they did last time and the garrisons who still fight you will aid us if and when we move in.

2500 anit-tank guns, 2500 SAMs, and 100,000 rifles have arrived from Germany as well as advisors to train the Imperial Army. The Imperial Army is on its way to being a much more advanced power than it is today. The new weapons will be put to good use training men.

OOC - Muahahahahaha. Time to take control of my blooming little empire. If anyone knows were I can find information on the Japanese military I would apprecciate it.

A new power shift has occured in Japan. Today a new governmental leader has emerged. Emperor Akihito and the new leader have drafted a new constitution. A powerful figure who is yet unknown to the public will assume the ancient and honorable title of Shogun. The Shogun and the Emperor will be the two most powerful figures in the government with the Emperor having a little more power. The Japanese people will be able to elect most members of the Diet however some will be appointed.

The Emperor has announced that Japan plans to become the most powerful empire in the Pacific (besides China). Territorial ambitions will be announced shortly.

To Polynesia - We wish to make this polite and short. We want the Philipinnes back. Unfortunantly we suffered somewhat of a governemnt transition. We are willing to pay you for it. Name your price.

To India - We recognize your current claims to Burma. However we adivse you to leave the rest of Soiutheast Asia alone. We plan to unite them soon under the banner of the Rising Sun. We warned you!

To China - Greetings from your neighbor to the East. We wish to sign an alliance with you. Think of all the glory we could share together.

To Hans2 - Satisfied? Croatia's yours!

OOC: Even though I could smoke Japan, alright...

IC:

Japan, we do not like to be pushed around, but lucky for you we have no more interest in southeast Asia. Our majority of forces is now moving west to help capture Pakistan with the other nations.

[Captain Kirk]

OOC : I'm just curious but how could India smoke Japan? Indian military equipment is like old. And Japan is like the most prosperous nation in Asia barring Taiwan and China.

OOC: Ok, it looks like I have found some limited computer access this weekend. But I really need to work on a project for school... so don't expect too much... just a few replies

To: Iraniraq

We would have to draw them up from new construction. OR you can wait until we begin construction of our new T-100 fleet to replace our old T-80s. We could have as many as 3000 on hand for sale.

Whats Beijing's ICQ address?

[JT3]

OOC: Stodlum, Ireland doesn't have the capacity to produce that many Tornadoes in that amount of time. I'll give you, say, 45. No more.

Bearcat: Listen to me. You have no means to transport those troops.

Your terms are not approved by the CTA. If the UDSA accepts we will allow their decision, but we do not expect them to. We give you 2 weeks(1 day real time) to back down.
