GDNES2 - The Age of War

[Sheep]

occ: I am going to be away for tomorrow due to a hospital visit. I shall be returning Wednesday.

To China: What we are allied to Japan, why would we want war with you (secret) We shall support you if the Europeans interfere again and we have the ability.

To Cuba: Surrender now, your people starve.

To Venezuala: You can;t continue this war the industiral might of the US is only starting the mobilise against you.

The US Army continues to advance into Mexico. In bloody trench warfare broken by the occasional barrel charge (I'm calling tanks barrels over in America) The Mexican Army is driven back even futher. Using this method the US Army has also reached the suburbs of Mexico City and the government building is now in range of US artillery barrages.

In Port Elizabeth, Jamacia the Carrabean Federation has been formally fromed. Every island that Cubqa occupied is in the Federation. (occ: Giovanni this is a new white nation can you start conducting its diplomacy, it should be friendly to the US.)

[Thud]

To USA: We're not sure why you have suddenly become so friendly with our former enemies and so cool to us, but we are not at all pleased with this latest aggression. If you do not put a stop to unrestricted submarine warfare, France will do it for you.

To AA, Mexico (secret): We may be interested in renewing and expanding our alliance. We'll keep you updated.

[civman2000]

To the US (SECRET): We can't make our attack until Brazil sends their troops north. I have to hit them when they've left their homeland relatively undefended.

[Giovanni Wine]

OOC: The suburbs of Mexico City are a little too far away, let's say the suburbs of Monterrey (and that's still pretty generous)

However, once the rebels were calmed down, the government of Holland have decided to allow their colony a greater autonomy.

- Tabriz Organization dissolved
After years of search, the headquarters of the rebels was founded by the Ottoman officers thanks to an Ottoman spy who managed to infiltrate in the rebel organization.
The Rebels HQ is the Persian city of Tabriz, in the province of souther Arzebaijan. The Organization is strong and wealthy, and have other minor HQ in:

[Metaliturtle]

To Germany, our territory is not for sale, we need those to expand manufacturing

[Metaliturtle]

((OOC: Goober crashed his car 2 nights ago and is in intensive care at the hospital, I would assume that he would thrash the Sh*t out of the American blocade as only he can though. I'll update when he is able to have visitors.))

[Metaliturtle]

To USA: Your blocade is harmful to my business as well as England's. Lift the blocade or declare war on Portugal, those are your options.

Portugese merchant ships have been modified into quick torpedo ships, Portugese Navy is now large, and a small fleet has been given to Cuba in addition to what Cuba already has.

A state of WAR does NOT exist at the moment between Portugal and the US, but it will if Cuba is not given it's territory back.

[Giovanni Wine]

Metaliturtle, do you want to run the Cubans for goober, or should i do it while he is gone.

Best wishes to goober for a quick recovery.

OOC: Holy moly, I'm gone for a weekend and all hell breaks loose. Sorry for my absence. But a few things have been overlooked. Like Brazillian military on all Cuban islands, major Brazil bases and lots of Brazillians garrisoning these. Also, 100% of my Huge (almost Gigantic) navy had blockaded these islands to prevent any American landings, they roam the Carribean. You totally ignored this. The islands were fortified and reinforced and ordered to open fire and defend the islands from American takeover, and my navy ordered to prevent any American ships and unauthorized ships from nearing the islands. And my soldiers aren't untrained peasants with pitchforks, they're veterans and highly trained and the army is Gigantic. Now, I apologize for my absence but I expected my post to be acknowledged, man. The post is on page 27, come on folks.
Also, Sheep, the Mexican rebels were Pancho Villa and Zapata and they won. In history, they were the Mexican people's heroes and greatly looked up to. So I doubt there would be any people uprisings or other strong rebel factions.

To Cuba:
I told you. Now please, sue for peace immediately and apologize for the delay in leaving the florida keys. Open negotiations immediately before another war erupts.


With the Cuban islands already containing Brazillian bases, they have been reinforced, and new bases have been established and fortified. The local Cuban military on these islands has been temporarily put under the command of the Brazillian commanders present The military is on high alert. Cuba itself has been reinforced with Brazillian troops.

To US:
You've made your point, and have gotten what you wanted. Now open peace talks. Time for negotiations. War built on vengeance leads to larger catastrophes. You've taken Aruba and the Florida keys back, open negotiations so peace may be obtained through diplomatic means. Brazil assures you Cuba will negotiate. Must war continue to run rampant in the western hemisphere? We understand your motives and fully support you. Brazillian troops are stationed on these Cuban islands, just to let you know. You have our support, but do not get carried away, your objectives have been met and your point has been taken. Time for peace.


Navy: Huge to Gigantic (8 years)
Army: Gigantic
Air Force: Tiny
Economy: Growing to Prosperous (6 years left-- 2 years in)


Brazillian engineers begin constructing their own tanks, after their experiences in the war with the US. They use their experiences with the British tanks given to them during the war and the pros and cons of these new age weapons.

They begin development of a faster, stronger armored, and larger caliber tanks.

New Tank creation: 10 to 15 years

To AA:
Let us unite our research, so that more effective creations will suffice at a greater speed.

This is the post in case someone doesn't want to dig it out.

Yes Easthaven, you are indeed right, I have forgot about this.

MOD Action

Knowing this, we would still have much fighting in the carrabeans, and no Carrabean Federation was formed.

But, because of heavy fighting between the country involved, the Cubans merchant vessels could not make it out or in the island, so Cuban trade got locked and the country is suffering from famine.

[Easthaven I]

OOC: wait wait, I meant the post on page 28, its more direct and the one I intended. But the one you picked is good too.

Brazillian bases on all Cuban islands remain reinforced and fortified.

To US:
Your illegitimate invasion of Aruba will not be tolerated. Withdraw from this independent nation or Brazil will intervene. Brazillian forces occupy these Cuban islands, any landings from your troops will be considered a threat to Brazillian troops and an act of war. There is no reason for your pointless conquest! You have your Keys back, now stop this nonsense or Brazil will declare war! This is pointless, the Cubans haven't even retaliated! At first, you had our full support and understanding, now you just don't know when to stop. These islands which are under Brazillian supervision will be defended from invaders.


All Brazillian troops ordered to open fire and defend their islands and bases from any foreign invaders. Hundreds of thousands of troops reinforce every island and Cuba. Millions of military equipment resupplies all Brazillian forces. Bases and beachheads refortified and continue to improve their defenses. 100% of the Brazillian Navy locate themselves in the Carribean, blockading their own islands, they are under orders not to allow any American ship or submarine or unauthorized vessels to enter any of these islands. Military strategists dish out battleplans for every scenario possible in a war in Carribean.

To US:
Why do you pursue war instead of peace? End this through diplomacy. Brazil will not allow you to attempt any takeover of any Cuban island. We want peace damnitt.


To American Alliance:
I hope I have your support. The Americans are attempting another conquest campaign, we must not allow it. Cuba was wrong, but the US is beginning to be committing an even more wrong activity.

To World:
Please demand that the US stop their military operations. Objectives have been met, why do they continue? They invaded a sovereign nation for no reason, evidence to their change in objective. They have gotten back their Keys, they have destroyed many Cuban ships and killed many Cuban soldiers, now is time to end this. Peace can be achieved through diplomacy yet they insist on war. I understand war is necessary but when diplomacy is an oppurtunity one must not throw it aside. They have thrown it aside...why?...because they don't want peace...they want land.

To Venezuela:
Brazillian engineers are en route to begin constructing oil refineries.

TO AA and Central America:
Let us all open our borders to each other, complete free trade!

[foolish_icarus]

Britain to Germany:

Sure, we can send some advisors, but the only ships we have that we want to sell aren't really worth buying, we doubt you would want them, unless you require obselete sailing vessels that are about to be decomissioned and replaced by more modern vessles.

To japan:

yes, we will renew the trade alliance

The British military has been upgraded to very large and the air force to medium. Due to the extra support combined with suffering trade from the tensions created by the war, British economy has fallen to Prosperous, but is expected to recover at least partially shortly.

British forces are moving in to rout the rebels that are known of in British territory. Once captured, they will be turned over to the Ottomans.

[Metaliturtle]

Well, if me playing cuba is no conflict of interest, alrighty then

The Cuban Navy, which has been more or less hiding from American Forces in a high-risk cat and mouse game, join the Brazillians in destroying the United States navy, even though Cuba has suffered 50% casualties, the addition of the advanced Portugese ships have made the losses almost neglegible. THE U.S. Navy is no more in the Carribean. The US Navy would be tiny at best right now, and the blocade is lifted. ((giovanni, tell me if this is too much))

Cuban ships capture American supply and recon ships as well in the attack, and have evidence that Argentina is plotting to invade Brazil

To Brazil: We found papers, certainly you did as well, Argentina is planning on invading your nation.

To Argentina: We back Brazil, Cuba thought you were better than the Americans, we will brood no aggression If and only if you lead the rest of the retalitory attacks in North America... With Argentinian troops on the front lines.

To American Nations: (all the stuff about argentina and the US)

To England: We request aid now that the blocade has been lifted, so that we can rebuild our industries and give you 20% of your economy back.

PORTUGAL
---------------

Portugal is glad to see the Cubans fighting back. Although they cannot reasonably declare war yet, the Portugese congress is waiting for America to return.

After some prominent eyeballing of her colonies, Portugal has increased military buildup there.

Portugal would like the BENEDEFRA alliance to join in the ultimatum set by portugal, hopefully the threat of war will be more effective than war itself.

Portugese army upgraded to medium via conscription efforts. Troops will be fully trained in 6 mos.

[Metaliturtle]

oh, due to the famine, 5% population loss in cuban isles, disdain for the warhawk government ensues, bladeeblah
