OOC: This is for all IC (in-character) posts, where Latao is being attacked by Starblaydia, aomng others. Can we please keep the story in this thread, and the conversation and dicussion in the OOC (out-of-character) one, which is here. All posts in this thread should be IC. So, without further ado, here we go:
IC:
It was a complex and massive operation, but then again these sorts of things always are. Starblaydi forces were stepping into motion to do the action they were trained for. Killing things.
With Starblaydia itself so far from 'the Fatherland', the Reich of Latao, there were several inherent problems, but most could be overcome with the aid of her allies. The largest and strongest battle fleet ever put to sea by Starblaydia was already passing Xile on its way south. Naval versions of the Nightwing stealth craft protected it from the air, while massive guns and hidden submarines protected them from any threats in the water. Battlecruisers, Aircraft Carriers, Destroyers, Frigates and Cruisers, all the brand-new designs from Samosisos and Penningworth shipyards were included. Helicopter Assault Craft, Tankers and Supply ships also tagged along behind, with their own protection. All in all over nearly a hundred warships were on their way to tell Latao, the Region and the World that nuclear proliferation in the hands of madmen would not be tolerated on any level.
Breaking out into open water beyond the South Cove, the fleet adopted the classic ciruclar defence formation to protect against air, surface and underwater threats. They sailed at best possible speed, around twenty-four knots for the entire fleet, towards Latao and her island dependancy. Soon they would be in range.
Elsewhere, there were Starblaydi bombers in the air.
Topping off their fuel tanks from KC-10 tankers, the large flight of B2 stealth bombers - staged out of Xilean bases - eased towards their targets. Four squadrons - some 24 bombers - headed for Latao, while two other Squadrons - numbering 12 B2s - had the small island Latao had 'claimed' as their target. The Seventh Bomber Wing of the Starblaydi Air Force would show its true might tonight.
Flying extremely high, at the very limit of their operational range, the B2s approached Latin shores. Their mission was simple: Knock out the Radar and Air defences at the edge of Latin territory. Carrying four massive bombs each, nearly one hundred smart bombs would be raining down on the Radar Sites, Power Stations and Relay Stations, as well as the Air-Defence installations of Latao itself. Many miles to the east, nearly fifty of these devastating weapons would be dropping on the small island of Latao's annexation.
Already resuce helicopters were lifting off from the Battlefleet, preparing for any pilots they may have to pick up. Nightwing fighters took to the air with Phoenix long-range air-to-air missiles to protect the helicopters and engage any Latin fighter brave, or perhaps stupid, enough to counter-attack Starblaydi craft.
This was, strangely enough, their opening gambit in the fight to preserve the peace of the region. 'If you want peace, prepare for war' the old paradox said, which was precisely what Starblaydia had been doing all these years.

President Smith: "Hey, aren't we supposed to be in some sort of alliance with those Latin guys."
Unnamed helper: "The FLMS, sir."
President Smith: "Well, I don't like this. We need to do all we can to show that we don't approve of such behaviour in Druida. Give them an ultimatum. Either we go or they go."
Unnamed helper: "Right sir. I'm onto it!"
President Smith: "Oh, and tell people not to attack us. We've still got a load of giant dodgeballs to fire, we've got plenty from the Dodgeball: Goliath amnesty we held, and we're not afraid to use them!"
Unnamed helper: "We're not?"
President Smith: "Well, obviously, we won't, but tell them we might, OK?"
Unnamed helper: "Understood, sir." |

Abattoirian pilots walked out on the runway and headed to their planes. The Starblaydia attack force was quickly approaching Latin territory and the fighter wing was supposed to follow closely behind.
Heading off into the night the B2's caught site of the Latin coastline on radar. The mission of hitting every factory and commercial airport possible. Cutting off the lifeline of the country and limiting ability for counterattack or wartime preparation.
Word from Phase I of the attack would be getting back to command shortly and the pilots would know the extent of Starblaydi success.

"This is a worrying situation, my good friend, a worrying situation," commented 1st President Andrew Bren of Nedalia.
"Mr. President, if I may....Latao has done nothing but threaten, deceive, and lie...and we should know, we experienced it first hand. I cannot see how this is a bad thing," replied Dewars Strand, Nedalia's Minister of Foreign Affairs.
"You're not looking at this the way I am, Dewars. The situation in northern Sarzonia has completely deteriorated, with the new rebellion and all, and now the initial bombing of Latao has thrown the region into a fullscale escalation. We are looking at full on Atlantian war. What is more worrying is the fact that Latao is not but a couple of hours from here."
"I see what you are saying. But you know, there is no reason to worry. We are not involved in any of these wars, nor do we have any reason to."
"Dewars, listen to me. In a state of war, anyone attacks anyone else. There are no ethics, no morals. Landgrabbing is plentiful. What was your official statement on the matter, anyhow?"
"I did not release one, Mr. President. We haven't met and discussed our official stance on the matter."
"Get the Council ready for a meeting in no more than 3 hours."
"Yes, Mr. President."

"PRESIDENT ASHALLOND!" As the aide ran into the room holding a piece of paper. "Sir, where are you?"
"What is it? It can't be that bad, the last of the colony ships is about to be dismanted."
"War, sir. Starblaydia and Latao."
"Damn, Latao's just south of us. That's the one thing we don't need while we are rebuilding our civilization. Order the navy to begin to protect our coastal waters. Send a relay to the air defense force to be on the lookout for stray attack wings. I do not want any part of this war."
"Yes, sir."
President Ashallond scribbles a note and then hands it to the aide. "Have this sent to all warring parties and their allies...and do it quickly."
"Yes, sir."
| QUOTE |
To all parties in the Starblaydia-Latao conflict:
While the soveriegn state of the Eagle's Nest watches closely this conflict, we do not wish to be a part of this conflict. To this extent, our borders, airspace, and coastal waters are closed from all ships of conflict. We will be a neutral nation in this conflict. Commercial and trade ships may continue to use Nest airspace, waterways, and overland routes, persuant to a search to ensure that they are not an undercover ship. Any such ship will be turned around, or upon refusing to leave soverign Nest air/land/water space will be sequestered and/or destroyed.
The Nest will assist in humanitarian efforts if asked, but has no desire to be involved in this conflict. May God watch over you in this dangerous time.
Garric Ashallond,
President, The Eagle's Nest

The Lamonian freighters had reached the north coast of Latao, and were taking as many Lamonian civilians as they could hold. The Lamonian Frigate FRLS Bangor was sitting still in international waters, just to keep an eye on the operation. Lamoni was going to be neutral in this conflict unless forced into it. |

NEC-Leader Omsec is speaking to hundreds of thousands of armed citizens, in either uniform or civil at a huge outdoor place
Folk of Latao!
Yesterday, a coalition of killers has come together to ambush the peace-loving nation of ours! They destroyed several buildings and murdered numerous Latins.
Now I say, since today, 6 in the morning, we are firing back!
Let they know, that any guys who slaughter Latin people such as pilots and snipers are shot immediately, while the rest ends up as war-workers in concentration camps building bombs and ammo for our battle of destiny.
I say Latao was forced into the war and didn’t want. We may go down in this war, but we will take a region with us! Surrender we will not!
If they drop 100 kilograms of bombs per night over Latao, we drop 1000 kilograms!
If they explain, they will heavily attack Latin cities, we will erase their cities!
For god’s sake, Latao’s anti-air installations are damaged, but still useable, enabling us to shot down many of the foreign agressors.
Latao declares war on the Holy Saints
To increase war-important resources and gain strategic territory, the Latao Fatherland Forces (FF) have marched in with 5 billion men into THS-land.
Any resistance will be stamped out with an iron fist! THS-pigs slaughtering Latao soldiers are executed on the fly. Useful men and women are integrated into regular Latao forces or deported to concentration camps where they build military resources, such as ammo, grenades and tanks.
If the THS would have controlled Great Latao’s North for another few decades, everything would be gone to rack and get dirty. The race of THS needs a strong lord-hand now to lead it and to order things – the region shall amend on the Latin spirit!
They flee but we trace them!
Now we’re back in our element again as merciless tracers and hunters – it’s we giving the tact not you Lord Starblayde.
There’s no power on god’s earth that can stop us now, not even you Tiberius or the beasts of your soldiers.
I am sure this destiny battle can not end without the complete demolition of one of the two opponents.
Lord Tiberius may think this is going to be Latao, but I say it will be Starblaydia!
And if one of these allied murders really is crazy enough to enter Latao’s mainland they shall pay the blood price!
As for the time being no citizens of Starblaydia or Abbatoir leave Latao as they are detained as adversary foreigners.
Heil!
Latao over all! |

"You must be -explicitive removed-ing kidding me. Latao is turning its entire population into an army and invading THS? Who the hell is going to make the equipment, providing food, and so many other minor details that is going to keep their troops alive. Its simply not feasible. They are going to cripple themselves," stated President Bren.
"Yes sir, its the stupidest thing Ive ever heard. What are they thinking? The Starblaydians are going to wipe them off the face of the earth. The worst strategy I have ever heard of," replied Commander Horacio.
"These Latins are certainly doing what they can to drive AO's reputation down the drain. Ay...don't call up the reserves yet, but make sure to begin preparing the army. How many active soldiers do we have?"
"About 950,000 sir. I will begin preparing our defenses immediately. Good day, sir." |

OCC: Sorry, that was a typo. I meant of course 5 Million men, not 5 billion :-)
Cloaked jets of the Latao air forced started to bomb major THS-cities including the capital and goverment seats and Starblaydi outposts this morning around 4am.
Numerous villages and Starblaydi outposts have been completly destroyed and burned down by marching FF-squads and regular Latao military troops. We're making more and more prisoneres every day which are deported to camps in the conqured lands which will be their last station in this war.
Our fellow women are helping in the 'homefront'; they provide reparature, food and medical services to the victims of the killer-alliance together with the males that are not fighting for their country and its freedom at the front.
War-Slaves and Latao civilists are producing heavy military material, ammo and other supplemental goods in 24h shift working while the NEC and its general staff plans its next move.
In case Starblaydia decides to enter Lataos mainland, it will end in a disastrous bloodbath, where every meter of the homeland will be defeated to the last man.
A fleet of vessels and submarines have been positioned in the waters nourth-east of Latao near the two temple and east island to prevent Nedalia from taking imprudent actions and to ensure Starblaydi-killers aren't going to move foods and goods to their outposts.
This war of destiny is a question of to be or not be and cannot end without the complete destruction of one of the two opponents. If it's that what Lord Tiberius wants, he's gonna pay an unholy high price for it as Latao will never surrender not as long there is one man and two bullets left.
We rather kill ourselfs in the hour of destiny than living under the fist as a beaten slavery folk.
Power and Glory - Blood and Honor! |

King Falcon is prepared to let Starblaydian forces use Jayla (southern part of Falcanian Free Kingdom, bordering Cockbill Street) as a "Stepping Stone" to reach Latao. This decision was made after a failed attempt by Latao to get me onside. No mate. |

A small fleet of the Abattoirian navy secured the area around the island to the southeast of Latao, enabling the establishment of a small military outpost. Troops and supplies began to arrive by shipments, and the construction of a small airbase had begun. |

The KNS Bearclaw, a battleship of less than six years' service, and its sister ship, the KNS Boartusk, merely a year older, sailed past the southern cape of Nedalia, trailing behind them the remainder of the Krytenian peacekeeping fleet. Four conventially-powered submarines followed, the KSS Ursis, the KSS Unity, the KSS Vulcan, and the KSS Vermilia, and behind them the two huge aircraft carriers, each carrying an entire squadron of the KAF (twelve fighters, two bombers). The KNS Linford carried India Squadron, while the KNS Remires carried the ferarsome veterans of Tango Squadron.
Their mission: Intercept the Latin Navy. Bomb and shoot them to smithereens. Repeat as needed. |

Lamoni will allow Starblaydi, Abattoirian, and Krytenian naval vessels to use Lamonian ports. |
