RP: The Beatings

With DuQuois sending his men forward, the Crows would notice them. Many that were perched would look to one another and nod. They would gently lay down their rifles and fly over to the men. Before the men could even get a single word out, three Scars that were airborne would begin senselessly beating the men with their wings. Meanwhile, three that had landed on the ground would also begin beating the men. Scars within the village would begin to come out and watch this all unfold

RP: The Bang, The Whimper
It wouldn't be long before the three men (save for the Boilerman) were overwhelmed; attempting to swat the birds away and gathering the patience to not utilize the wrench, the Boilerman would yell to DuQuois: "DO SOMETHING YOU CUME-DE-TERRE!"

After a minute of taking notes and commanding his men not to rush to their aid, 'lest they intimidate the natives,' one man finally comes forward. He makes an effort to be calm, and attempts to get the attention of the natives.

RP: Ceasing the beatings

The man stepping forward, would be known as Basille Rome. But to his fellow crew mates, "The one eyed wonder", would be ashort man but of a built character. Being only 4'11, ripped, and staring at the Avians, he would begin to speak

"Let them go! We come in peace! We just finished fighting the Falcon people"

The Scars would look to each other then back to the Evves

[Scar male] "You're telling me... you... got rid of them?"
[Scar female] "Holy cow dude... thats like... Wow. Emile, we must introduce them"

The Evves would be throughly confused

[DuQuois] "Wait, you're telling me all that beating was for nothing?"
[Crewmember] "You're telling me you wanted that?"
[DuQuois] "Of course, Henri is kind of a prickchard"
[Crewmember] "Yeah he really is"

The Scars would lead DuQuois and the rest of the men to the Village. From there, the crew would begin to get along with the Scars just fine.

One Week Later

The Evves would fit in well. Having some minor jobs would be assigned but mostly able to conduct their research. However, a strange event would befall our most unfortunate heros

Within the Village, a Scar would screech. Within the early morning hours the Scars would arise and grab their weapons. Scars would begin to wake up the Crew and wake DuQuois last. Once DuQuois was awake, he would be slightly annoyed

[DuQuois] "What?! What?! Why am I awake this early?!"

A scar would hand DuQuois his clipboard

[Scar Captain] "The Whiskwinds have arrived, we need all the help we can get"

The Scar would run off and gather more aid. DuQuois would write the time and date and sigh

[DuQuois] "These birds are more helpeful than the losers I have for a crew"

DuQuois would feel a boot be thrown at the back of his head. A crew member would grab his boot he threw and stare DuQuois down as he walked away

[DuQuois] "Yeah keep going Pierre, you're too afraid of catching these hands, connard"

DuQuois would step outside into the cold morning air. He would walk past the houses and would look down an alley way. The Evven soldiers that would have went with them would be standing and sitting around a table. They would be playing a card game and drinking the Scars wine.

[DuQuois]" What... What's going on here? shouldn't you be helping the Scars?"

The Groups of soldiers would turn and begin yelling at DuQuois. Many would begin to throw the bottles of wine at Duquois. They would break and spill all over him. DuQuois would begin blocking and running away.

DuQuois, soaked in wine and stumbling, would check his clipboard. The pages would be partially soaked in wine. His mood would turn much more sour as his pace increased. Soon, he reached the meeting point. Whiskwindian soldiers would be violently pushing around some of DuQuois men. DuQuois would stand next to the Boiler Man.

DuQuois would turn to the Remainder of his men and find the crew list

[DuQuois] "Alright, who wants to deal with this"

None of the men would say a word. DuQuois would look up and raise an eyebrow

[DuQuois] "Well? SOMEONE better volunteer"

DuQuois would have an angry look upon his face. Men would step forward and grab DuQuois violently

[Crewmember] "Listen here DuQuois, we are tired of dealing with your little games. All you do is stare at that clipboard and watch our lives tick away!"

A man would grab the Clipboard from DuQuois hand. DuQuois' eyes would shift to the clipboard. The man would place it over his knee

[DuQuois] "No! Don't! It ha-"

Before he could finish his sentence, he would snap the clipboard in half and throw it on the ground. DuQuois would stare at the now broken board. The men would move away. DuQuois's blue eye would begin to twitch

[DuQuois] "Henri... Utilize the wrench..."

DuQuois would set his eyes on the Whiskwindians. The Boiler Man would take his wrench and walk with him

[DuQouis] "Hey! Deustchebags! Shoo!"

DuQuois would begin forcibly moving the Whiskwindians out of the way. Many would be shocked in fear and would start moving away. The Boiler man would strike many in the beak with his Wrench, utilizing its full potenial. Soon, the Whiskwindians would have flown away. DuQuois would turn around towards his men

[DuQuois] "Find me... A new clipboard!"

He would yell loudly

Present day

The events after the Whiskwindian troubles would only cause a greater issue. Soon, the Scars would be visited by Avian Scouts. The Scars would inform the Avians of what has occurred. Communication between the two would begin to become constant. Soon, a letter signed by the Queen would be delivered to DuQuois directly. The Letter would be a grant for the current Scar territory to be arranged under the leadership of the Evves. A guarantee of independence would be also included. However, a list that would include the do's and do nots. The Evves would be prohibited from their mainland to send soldiers or build bases within the land. However, they were permitted defensive forces.

RP: The effect of it all

With the Evve's entrance into the stage of Avidina, Whiskwindia wouldn't take kindly to what the Evve's had pulled. In additon, prior to those events the relationship between Rotalia and Avia had increased Drastically. Both signing guarantee's of Independence and beginning trade. With all of these factors being applied to the Whiskwindian king, the breaking point would be reached. Whiskwindian would formally begin troop movements on the Avian border and the Evve territory. Avia would soon place troops on theirs and in return, Rotalia would begin sending its own. Soon, the Sun Empire would begin to be pressured by the Whiskwindians to aid in their war. The Sun Empire would agree and itself place what army it had on the border of Rotalia. Rotalia would soon place its strongest forces on the border, preparing for a full on offense.

RP: Good Morning Ranger, Shut the-

Ranger wanting to move his 200,000 Mercenary Army back to his HQ in Basaran cant due to his wife "Grounding him". Leading to an Unofficial Capital Guard protecting Castle where he is reading books and scrolls... meanwhile unnamed mountain borb he adopted is running around Castle screeching. He spent most of his time taking care of this borb and on a phone call ordering 20,000 Fuel-Pick up Trucks from Basaran. Preferably Older Fuel Pick up Cars that are more mechanical then electric components to easier maintain. Call was awkward as he called multiple Car Companies in Basaran till he found something.

Meanwhile Ranger was send scouts to search for resources like a possible rumored Black Lakes and or Tar pits which would be signs of Oil seeping to surface. As he wants to get his Resource Companies now before competition occurs. Also he needs money badly to pay for Industrialization and His Army Budget due to him "Retiring". His questionable offshore Bank Account is halfway empty already.

RP: The Legion Refuses
With Icey being sent away and Major Forbes cavalry returning the Blayredeshians would remain convinced that the so-called "New ILA" was merely a front for the RLF and would therefore remain at their post growing stronger by the day in preparation for the day they flood into the east.

Total number of troops int he Legion stationed near the Blayredeshian-Icewindian Border
-5,100,000 Infantry from Blayredeshia and Woleve Atraland
-600,000 Knights of Sol (Shock Troopers) from Woleve Atraland
-12,000 Tanks
-1,000 Rocket Trucks
-1,550 Artillery Pieces from Blayredeshia and Woleve Atraland
-460,000 Black Wolves from Blayredeshia and Volunteers from Woleve Atraland

RP: Aid to Avia

After a successful meeting with Queen Arcwind of Avidina, Ambassador Vincent Anaheim reports back to Schwypia with news of the Avian people and Queen Arcwind's proposition. While not sure if they should take up the Queen's proposal to establish what the Schwypian government sees as a colony, the government would be more than happy to send expats to Avia to teach their people many modern studies in science. Furthermore, the government will send resources to establish radio systems in Avia and instructors on how to create said systems. As Ambassador Anaheim returns to Avia, Queen Boran of Schwypia has considered the idea of meeting with Queen Arcwind and waits to hear back from her government on such a meeting. Ambassador Anaheim's mission will also go to the other end of Avidina to make contact with Rotalia next.

RP: SAFP Aid Against Makili Communists

With forces from Hoschestan finally returning to SAFP territory en masse and the Communist forces in Makil growing stronger every day, the SAFP would deem it necessary for forces to be sent to contain the Communists. Following an agreement with Croblade, Ilmenia and Anolos would begin to send equipment, generals, troops, etc. to the Conservative and Republican sides of the Makili Civil War in an attempt to grow the collective power of the Conservative and Republican forces and beat back the Communists. As per the agreement made with Croblade, the SAFP forces would primarily be used to combat the Communists until they are defeated in an effort to prevent the forces of the SAFP and Croblade from coming into conflict with each other. The aid is expected to be delivered over the next few months.

RP: Crobladean aid

We hope that our aid will prove a good effort against the communists. We also hope that this will further establish relations with SAFP. Godspeed.

Vinrose Pipeline Plan
Proposed in the early 50s (2150) the Vinrose pipeline plan was an orchestration to construct oil and gas pipelines across the Konscoss Gulf spanning the Tengerina and Duotou regions. These pipelines would be directly administrated by the five major corporations that control the Vinrossian state. After much debating within the corporations, a vote of 3 - 2 was passed. Supreme Head, René Rouvier has wished for the project to go forward of course this would require to be accepted by the countries they would run through and supply. For a starter the minuscule Island of Cenagrad. The Vinrossian Delegation would be sent abroad to meet with Cenagradian Officials to discuss this matter.

RP: An Offer, and Pipeline

The vote on this offer came close. The senate voted 253 to 147, with much of the opposition believing its a bad use of the nation's money in a time in crisis. The majority believed Nonadia needed a firm stance on the global stage, with Nonadia barely having any influence past Orkatar. The purchase of this land, if successful, would essentially blow 1/3rd of the Nonadian government's budget at most, and it would take years to recover. So an idea was proposed. The Kinslandian Desert's oil had never been tapped into, as much of Nonadia's oil came from foreign exports.

The Trans-Kins Island Pipeline, also known as Project Yellow, would be where oil would be pumped in the Kinslandian desert, transported to oil manufacturing sites to be sold as different products. It is planned to cost around 5 billion nanoes (10 billion USD), and will take around 5 years to construct. It is hoped this can fund the purchase and even give enough money to the government to fund future ventures. So, the Nonadian government has approached the Northern new solingarch government, and has offered 375 million Nanoes (750 USD) for Nonadian Morovia, a colony which Nonadia would not be allowed to annex and could not build military bases without permission from Northern New Solingarch, but Nonadia would be able to build ports and towns, and just general infrastructure on.

RP: The First Avian War

Dragonvich Castle, Avia

Around 11:16pm, Queen Arcwind would give birth to two twin children. One a Shardin, another an Avian. Word traveling fast throughout the Avidine nations in the morrow, Whiskwindian would take this as a sign of Weakness and begin the spark. Having assembled their forces on the Avian line, they would begin the Krater Offensive. 20,000 Whiskwindians would begin to assault the Avians 20,000 defensive forces. Having acquired motor vehicles from Basaran, them being "stolen", they would begin to pierce through parts of the Avian line. However, Avias artillery would make quick work of these Vehicles. In addition, Avias Automatic rifles provided by Rangers Mercenaries would provide a advantage acorss the forces. SKR's would be more highly produced and better crafted than the Whiskwindian Gewehrs. Around two hours of the Offensive would pass, and orders for the Whiskwindians to retreat would be placed. Already, Whiskwindia would be down 10,000 soldiers and Avia would be down 7,000. Once Whiskwindia pulled back to their line, Avia would reinforce theirs.

Queen Arcwind would have barely time to react. Messages were delivered to Rotalia of the sudden attack. Rotalia would place 5,000 Rotalians on the border of the Sun Empire. The Sun Empire would have 10,000 but made up of nearly all melee units. Only around 500 would have outdated Whiskwindian arms. Rotalia would take its newly created motor vehicles and place them with Infantry carrier attachments onto them. Avia would request vehicle technology from Basaran and Rangers Mercenaries (Icewindia). Rotalia would have discovered the way to create gasoline from months of experimentation prior to the creation of their cannons. Whiskwindian on the other hand, would have only a limited amount of fuel. Nearly all of it was used on the first offensive attempt.

Rotalia and Avia would notify the Evvens and Scars of Evermore of the up and coming war that was soon to begin. Rotalians would be the first to arrive and begin to secure the land. Around 2,000 infantry would be split and stationed on each side. Meaning only 1,000 for each front. Avia would send a list of demands to the Whiskwindians, which would ultimately be responded with another clash on the border. A small, but definitive answer. Having virtually no other options, Avia would declare war on Whiskiwindia. Rotalia would follow suit and declare war on both Whiskwindia and The Sun Empire.

Rotalia would begin its offensive on the Sun line, and Avia would begin a counter offensive on the Whiskwindians. Evermore would sit gently in the middle between the war that soon would change the course of Avidina, forever.

RP: Arrival
With the Lirana Military finally arriving in the Bay of Pontricare, they have begun to assert area control. Attack Submarines have been tasked with engaging enemy submarines, anti-submarine warfare equipment to also be used. Fighter jets have been launched to support Basar and Schwypian forces battling Blayredeshia in the sky. 7 Zircon missiles have been launched, aimed at Blayredeshian and Atralandian Aircraft Carriers.

The Marines are to be landed in Demira, to support Coalition forces in Demira hold off the assault by Blayredeshia and Woleve Atraland.

As the war goes on overseas, Lirana industry has been put on full military readiness, in preparation for equipment losses. The government has placed orders with Shipyards for naval vessels, Artaecus for M8 Main Battle Tanks, and Pereh rocket vehicles. Domestic orders have been placed for the full line of Striker AFVs, IFVs and APCs. Orders have been placed with Kanshi Corporation for production of Aircraft, mainly fighter aircraft.

full orders

2 Aircraft Carriers (5 years)
4 Helicopter Carriers (5 years)
8 Missile Cruisers (3 years)
14 Destroyers (3 years)
4 Attack Submarines (3 years)
1,900 Strykers (1 year)
120 X-90 Multirole Aircraft (1 year)

The Lirana Military is sending 2 aid Carrier Battle Groups to the Pontricare to support the Coalition forces navally fighting there. The forces are expected to join the combat within 6 months.

Infantry personnel are also to be sent to join the fight, directed to land on the Rekkenian east coast to be sent North or south. These troops are to be sent in batches over the next year, with approximately 400 Main Battle Tanks carried by each RoRo carrier. This will be done with an average transit time of 45 days to and from Rekken. (Mathed out with effort)

Naval forces sent

LNS Valiant, LNS Bulwark (Nuclear Powered, Steam Catapult CATOBAR Supercarrier)
LNS Bee, LNS Owl, LNS Hawk and LNS Osprey (Nuclear Powered Helicopter Carrier)
8 Missile Cruisers
14 Destroyers
6 Nuclear Attack Submarines

1,400 Main Battle Tanks
2,800 Stryker Vehicles
8,000 trucks
8 Roll On, Roll Off Cargo Ships
15 Troop Transport Ships

RP: Arrival

After over a year of transit, the Lirana military has landed the first wave of Lirana troops in Demira, to be sent to fight the Blayredeshians or Gatisians. While to be under Lirana direction, the Demirans are asked where the forces should be sent in order to best aid Coalition forces in fighting off the Nationalist League.

The government has also begun training of 9,500 Military personnel on the newly produced Stryker Vehicles, with roughly equal numbers on Armoured Personnel Carriers and Infantry Fighting Vehicles. To supplement these armoured forces, some 104,500 volunteers have been organised into the main mass of 3 battalions, which, including Vehicle trained troops, will form a total force of 38,000 soldiers per battalion. Each battalion will recieve the standard 15 week training, with an extra 3 week training period for desert combat, on the off chance they begin combat in Northern Demiran Deserts in Fort Drake, in the smaller deserts of Northeastern Liranaholm.

With this period, coupled with movement and total transport times, the troops are expected to arrive in Demira by late 2157 to early 2158. This will hopefully be fast enough to allow for them to aid in combat.

[Disclaimer: Those forces were sent over a year ago, and I did the math to work out the distance at 45 days transit there and 45 back, enough for 4 trips]
RP: Arrival

The Lirana trade group sent to Avidina has instead docked in Basaran, and is currently asking for permission to get through to the new nation, to enter discussions with them.

RP: Blood and Lead, Year One

The Concordaian Civil War had been raging for over a year, with countless dead and homes razed. Much had changed since the Operation Sunset and the 6 months of a fragile peace between the Revolutionaries and the Government. Castellanies declared their support for either side, battles were fought, and territories gained and lost. In the west, the combined armies of the National Revolutionary Army and their allies from the republics of Northern new solingarch have consolidated their hold. Armies which once were poised to strike at the Confederation were quickly encircled and forced into mass surrenders, with only the most fanatical and dogmatic soldiers holding out in small enclaves such as the city of Valkengard, in prolonged urban sieges. The southern NRA has been reunited with the western NRA's territory, allowing for a slow advance inland. Along the coast, the NRA coordinated with Solingarchi naval forces to press northward, seizing many key locations and challenging the Government naval supremacy. While the NRA enjoyed success, so to did the Government. The two major elements of NRA resistance in the northcentral region were suppressed violently, with NRA forces being besieged by Government forces while Blayredeshian CIS agents demoralized the population. Unlike the holdouts in the west, they were quickly rooted out after Chief Castellan Arthorpe gave orders to authorize widescale collateral damage, a move that blindsided and surprised many. Up until that point, collateral damage was kept to a minimum in order to preserve the national infrastructure and not to harm civilians. Arthrope's order allowed for the Government to quickly stamp out the NRA uprising at the cost of massive collateral damage, which quickly turned around the Government's fortunes. More resources were now allocated to the eastern front, which had steadily brought the advance of Etrius to a halt by sheer numerical superiority, and the west where the NRA now began to experience fierce resistance. In order to preserve their initial momentum, General Inanna made the controversial order to follow Arthrope's lead in authorizing collateral damage followed by a fierce spearhead to fully capture the coast. Reactions to it have been mixed, despite its efficiency so far in a slow southern campaign and the northward spearhead. The latest target of the NRA is Colford, a coastal and highly urbanized city. Meeting them are a well defended Government garrison as well as incoming Government reinforcements. The NRA plans to attack Colford with a massive force, led personally by General Inanna herself, within the coming weeks.

The High Chancellor led his guests indoors, escorted by the Revolutionary Guard and Fenric. The rest of the welcoming party was left behind. The doors to a large hall were opened, and Aralim entered. In the center of the room stood a large table, where the High Council of Redpeppers was seated. They rose as the High King entered the room, and introduced themselves: Ailas Zinleth, Councillor of Financial Affairs; Aerilaya Mortoris Councillor of Intelligence; Rina Adrel, Culture; and Silvyr Virphine, Councillor of the Armed Forces.

"Please, your highness, take a seat," Aralim said, with the introductions concluded. "Now, I suggest we go to business straight away, unless you would like to rest first?"
