*Breaking News flashes across every news station, and every THS station, for that matter, telling the populace of an ominous event.*

"Today, President Maximllian XXIV has been shot. He is without heirs, and a group of over 6,000 rebels have taken the administrative headquarters of the nation." was sent over all the channels, almost simoultaneously.
"Now to a speech by the rebel leader:"
"Fellow citizens of The Holy Saints, regard this event as one of rejuvination, of continuing this nations ability to survive. Join us in our glorious fight to save all humanity in this great nation from the scourge that was our government. Give us the chance, and we can make the change for the better. Of course there will be short term problems, but the unified greater part of us will solve these insignificant specs upon our great shield of a nation in moments. Our former, corrupt leader is dead, and we must continue the Revolution!"
*broadcast ends in static, and almost 1 billion people rise from their seats and begin to act.*

(1 hour after the 'speech' at a small SF operations base deep in the country, now acting as one of the last government held bastions against the 1 billion person extermination force.)
"Sir, the entire country is against us. We need to act NOW!"
"Yes, i know that, so shut up. lets get a plan together."
"Yessir. We already have a plan to take back this ammo depot along with this military base, about 2 miles from here. Base Whittier are communicating that they can send about 70 men. We can send 2 JagTiger VIIs and 467 men."
"Good. Give the go code, and tell Whittier to send their men to the ammo depot. Our guys are taking the base."
"yessir."

So, you are going from dictatorialism to a republic or democracy I take it?

*static, a face appears on the screen*
"Citizens of The Holy Saints, bear with us. we are government soldiers and workers, and we are a part of this nation as well. these extremist revolutionaries have declared a crusade of Genocide! We must stop them before they kill many millions of our country men! Save yourselves from this scourge, for they will desomate this grand nation; they have already killed the entire former Administrative Corps and the royal family. If they are defeated, democracy will grace this nation. if they fail, then we have lost all reason and hope. Congregate at Tolstyaviska Military base...*static*"

At Tolstyaviska base

"Sir, we have taken a 12 mile radius area, and we are continually advancing." came the report from one of the many worn out, downtrodden soldiers fighting the rebel forces.
"Good. Continue on, and push those b*st*rds back to the hellhole they came from!"
"Yessir."
"Adjuntant, send 14 TigerBlod tanks to the eastern border, the fighting is heating up there....

*a servant enters a dark, subterranean, chamber.*
"Sir, we wish to warn you that Government forces are gaining a foothold.... and it is not too unlikely the 2 other planets have given this no notice."
"We can win. technology doesnt matter when you know the land much better than your enemy..."

*Hundreds of Dropships begin to descend upon the planet filled with thousands upon thousands of marines, infantry, and heavy armor.*

*in Dropship B1045*
"Corporal, When are we arriving?" inquired the hefty 2nd Lt. Havermayer.
"Soon sir, our heat shielding is being deployed as I speak."
"good."*facing the others*"Prepare for landing, and the freeing of our grand nation!"

The Stralphian government will support any force in The Holy Saints which will set up a democratic government in THS.

(OOC: just so you guys know, i have 3 planets in my plane of rule. The other two are completely mine and i sent a fleet to aid my government forces. Now then, because my center of government was destroyed, i have to change government seeing as theres no reason to have a corporate kingdom anymore... seeing as they're all dead.

Two of the heavy dropships landed in an open field near a large city name 'Lusanknya', and began to disperse their 4,000 infantry, 3 ligh attack helos(3 blackhawks) and 16 Tiger-Blod tanks. With an esitmated 45,000 rebel combatants in their way, getting to city hall would be most difficult; at best.

over 600 miles away, in the capitol, Troms, 15 dropships landed, with 30,000 infantry, 45 light attack helos, 120 Tiger-Blod tanks, and 4 command stations. They would have the grand task of fighting over 250,000 rebels, along with a little help from two secret military bases hidden in the deep recesses of the city, with an additional 4,500 infantry, 20 Heavy Helos(15 Comanches, 5 cobras.) and about 45 Tiger-Blod tanks along with 3 newly developed Heavy JadPanther tanks.

Similar action is being taken throughout the land, in a determined fight to beat back the rebelious forces.

Fierce fighting over a space of 2 months was followed by a long stalemate. Orbital bombardments and continous assaults upon cities were not uncommon, and most military and civilian forces had to flee to the countryside. Only one city was almost untouched, taken early in the fighting, and most likely to be an interim capitol until the fighting died down or ended completely.

The city's name was Kristiania. Almost unheard of before the war, it was now a gleaming symbol of the government's power. Many in the nation thanked God that the military leaders had been trained for such a situation as currently and were already starting up an interim government in the city, a defying word to the estimated 12.5 million rebels in the nation against the 400,000 Holy Saints military personell.

The city was growing quickly and as the country around it was ravaged had great defences built around it, even at greater advantage as the city was sticking out of the largest mountain in the nation, Mount Kristiania, and had a labyrinth of tunnels under it, an ideal military stronghold.

Now it was under threat from a large undetered force heading south towards the ocean, hoping to get to the city before vital reinforcements of an additional 700,000 men arrived from the third planet in the Holy Saints' sphere, Terranious. This force consisted of an estimated 2.5 million men, all armed to the teeth, quite litterally, as they have metal chompers. A call for aid from any willing nation was sent out at 0950 this morning:

QUOTE

*static, transmission attempts to get through... finally becomes clear*
".... and all nations willing to help are requested. The final stronghold of THS government forces is waiting for needed reinforcements from another planet, but there is a high chance that rebel forces will overrun the city before the reinforcements arrive, dashing all hopes for any retaking of THS' nation on earth.  This is a recorded message, and will continue playing until we have enough men to defend or we are dead."


Hopefully these brave men can hold until relief comes...

::START PRIORITY TRANSMISSION::
::SECURITY ENCRYPTION: BETA 9 OMEGA DELTA::

The Federation of Novus Atlantica is sending in the 8th Aerial Fighter Legion and the 6th Aerial Bombardment Legion to assist in the defense of your final stronghold. A contingent of Federal Sardaukar are being sent to Kristiania to fight alongside THS forces, they will be arriving with supplies for your people as well.

It is our belief that our forces combined with the Terran THS forces will be able to hold off the rebels long enough for the extra-terrestrial THS forces to arrive and push the rebels back.

May the gods be with you.

Adonis Lauir shook his head slowly. Send as many troops as we can spare to Kristiania, and send a transmission to the remaining fighting force. Tell them to follow the orders of commanding officers within the city, and fight with every inch of their souls. Hopefully it will give those remaining in the city the will to go on.

Two million troops took every avenue of escape from the city, hastily making their way to the shores of THS. A few hours later, the first boat landed and Xilian infantry landed on the beaches beginning their unholy trek to Kristiania to fight off the rebel forces.

The Gauss fighters (officially named the NAF-9 "Paladins") were black and constructed similar to the F-117 and they were cruising 25,000 feet above THS land.

"This is Alpha Lance to base, reporting in for coordinate check. I repeat Alpha Lance to base. Over."

"Roger that Alpha Lance coordinates confirmed. ETA to target 5 minutes. Over."

The legion was comprised of 18 of these sleek and menacing jets and they were currently en route to the Kristiania airbase where they would refuel, be briefed on their mission, and then launch the offensive strikes against the rebel forces.

5 minutes later the 18 jets took their turns landing and refueling. The HS battle commander briefed the pilots on their mission to destroy the mobile rebel HQ. Thier primary goal was to destroy all anti-air defenses and radar systems, their secondary goal was to eliminate as much armor support as possible. With the anti-air defenses gone the bombers could level the HQ and the lack of armor would at least take away from some of the rebels power when they reached Kristiania.

As the fighters took off, the bomber legion just began to land, they too recieved the same briefing and by the time the bombers began to take off the fighters were in position to strike the rebel HQ.

"Alpha Lance to Kristiania, we are in sight of target. Over."

"Bravo Lance to Kristiania, we are in sight of target. Over."

"Charlie Lance to Kristiania, we are in sight of target. Over."

"Confirmed. Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie Lances, you are approved for mission go! Over."

Three voices rang out through the mic.

"Roger that Kristiania, beginning attack vector now. Over."

The sleek jets, like a group of graceful migratory birds swept down and began operning fire on the HQ. Destructor missiles shot from the wings of the Paladins and exploded on SAM sites, reducing them to hulking mounds of burning metal. Gauss rifles charged and fired heavy tungsten shells, tearing tanks to shreds.

Several rebels got their acts together and brought up a Stinger man portable missile-launcher. The rebel fired, the missile shot toward a Paladin and seemed to be confused. It arced up and began to spin wildy out of control. It shot back down toaward the ground and erupted in a ball of flame in a medical tent.

"Hoo-ah! Those damn techies finally managed to get our EMP defenses working!"

The pilot of the targetted Paladin was estactic. His joy was cut short as a functional SAM site targetted his jet. It fired a missile, the missile erupted from the site and shot toward the jet, with the EMP system down and the pilot not focused the missile made a direct hit.

"Oh gods! Noo!!! Ahhh!!!! ...static..."

The screams of the pilot played over the entire aerial legion comlink.

"Take that site down!"

Three Paladins converged on the site, unleashing hell upon it with gauss. The tungsten shells ripped the site apart, scarring the ground and obliterating not only the SAM site but everything within 5 feet of it.

The HQ was in chaos. Rebels were screaming and firing blindly into the air. Troop transports were trying to get away. There were many tanks left, but the SAM sites were destroyed.

"Alpha Lance return to base! Over!"

"Bravo Lance our mission here is done! Head back to Kristiania! Over!"

"Charlie Lance the gods were with us for this one! Let's manage to stay alive and feast in their honor! Over and out!"

The Paladins screamed as they sped away from the carnage.

"We've got radar contact of the Dark Angels, we've also got... What the hell? Enemy contacts! Closing in fast! We're not done just yet! All fighters! Let's takes these bastards out!"

The Paladins, no longer worried about stealth, shot upward and came back down... right behind the enemy jets.

Unfortunately the Paladins had expended their arsenal of Destructor missiles, meaning they would have to rely on their gauss rifles...

The Paladins began opening fire. Magnetic accelerators charged and shot their tungsten shells forward at hypersonic speeds. A single shell ripped through the end of an enemy jet and came out through the nose of the jet. It fell to the ground.

The other enemy jets attempted evasive maneuvers but such attempts were useless as evading gauss projectiles, which hit their targets nearly instantly, was not like evading missiles.

Five of the enemy jets managed to get an angle on the 8th Aerial and began launching their missile salvos. The EMP systems caused many of the missiles to spiral to the ground but several found their mark causing the pilots to eject... over hostile territory where they would likely be killed.

Finally as the bombers became visible with the naked eye, the enemy fighters were down and the 8th Aerial Legion began its return to Kristiania, minus 4 fighters...

The bombers moved in towards the burning HQ, the rebels, thinking all was safe were regrouping when they saw the shadows on the ground.

"That's strange... I didn't think there were any clouds in the sky today..." He looked up and idmediately lost control of his bowels. What he saw would make any man do the same.

18 Novus Atlantican "Dark Angel" bombers, all with thier payload doors open, loomed overhead the enemy...

*about 3 kliks outside Kristiania...*

'Fox Team!! get to that hill and scout enemy positions!'
'Yessir'
'Charlie Team!! Secure our flanks with Bravo and Delta!'
'Yessir.'
'Alpha and Easy, come with me and bring up the center.'
'Understood.'

*a few moments later, from Fox team.*
'Sir' crackled over the radio, 'We have a status report. There are approximately 14 battalions in the field ahead, and more are coming out of the forest on the far side... -explicitive removed-e, they've spotted us!! retreating!'
'B company, Retreat back to the city! bring word of the coming forces!!'

*On the top of Mount Kristiania, next to a gigantic Rail Gun defensive turret.*

'Ah, sir, look down there, see all those black squares?'
'Yes, I do private. Those are the enemy. Prepare to fire!'
'Of course sir. Loading up the spikes at once!'

'Aim.'
'Sighted sir.'
'Calculate velocity'
'calculated, sir.'
'FIRE!'
'FIRING SIR!' was barely heard over the enourmous noise made by the 20 foot long spikes flying at the enemy formations 5,000 feet below.

'Look at that! 2 of those blocs are not even moving anymore! Sweet Saints almighty!'
'It is a mighty powerful weapon, ain't it son?'
'Yes sir, it is.'
