Invasion of Adumara

[spoiler]There was a terrorist insurgency in Latianburg that began in April, 2017 that was caused by the Al Jaheed. The Al Jaheed are fascist communists who use fear and violence to espouse views or promote interests that lack public consensus They were supported by Chianski, a member state of the Fire Pact Alliance. Adumara supported Latianburg. It was a part of the North West Coalition that attempted to help Latianburg uproot and expunge these terrorists. Adumara decided to blockade Chianski in order to prevent them from supporting the Al Jaheed. Adumara also fired missiles at Chianski. The Fire Pact Alliance has chosen to invade Adumara in retribution for blockading Chianski.

[spoiler]22 October 2017, 05H09 CAT - Removed “fascist”[/spoiler]

The National Security Council of Adumara gathered in the residence and workplace of the Chancellor in the capital, Annuminas. The Council was appointed and led by the Chancellor, currently Ardis Kane. He had called the Council to discuss the deterioraring security and diplomatic situation that faced his country. He sat at the head of the table - the position of the leader and explained the reasons for which he had called this meeting.

There was an increase of military activity in Yuno. Artillery and armour of various kinds and sizes amassed at the border poised in the direction of Adumara. The build up seemed belligerent. This accompanied a missive from the Fire Pact Alliance that conveyed its anger toward Adumara for its blockade and subsequent strikes on Chianski.

The missive from the Fire Pact Alliance expressed their willingness to use force in retribution for Adumara’s actions. The members of the council wore grave and solemn expressions as he presented the facts to them. When he had finished it was their responsibility to find solutions and advise him on the appropriate measures to be taken in light of what was said.

Audin Raphael, the Minister of Foreign Affairs took off his glasses, rubbed the bridge of his nose with his index finger and thumb, his brow furrowed pensively. He finally looked up and said, “Comrades. The threat is real. The time is short. We need to explore both diplomatic and military options to this action. I propose the following course of action”.

He continued, “We should impose sanctions against Yuno. We will close the border and prevent people and goods from crossing.We will put our forces on the border, ready for an attack. I will send a letter to the government of Yuno, requesting an explanation for their actions”.

Grand General, Otto Dominik, fiddled with the badge on the front of his military cap. He rubbed his bushy moustache and said, “We must be prepared for anything that they throw at us. We need to declare a state of emergency and transfer emergency powers to the government and impose marshal law. We must expand our available manpower by calling a draft”.

Minister of Domestic Affairs, James Dhurgon seemed to recoil at the supposition. General Dominik noticed his response and continued to explain the uncertainty that they faced and the vigilance that they needed. He looked at Minister Dhurgon with warm brown eyes. There was an almost telepathic transmission of sympathy and condolence from Dominik to Dhurgon.

As though indeed they were in a secret conference, Dhurgon said, “The past is in the past. I don’t like it one bit, but we don’t have a choice. We need to store up resources to prepare for any difficult times ahead. That involves controlling the use of resources and protecting our critical infrastructure. We need to keep everyone calm though. People need to feel like it’s just a rough patch and we’ll get through it”.

High Admiral, Hugo Vasiliev nodded so fast and powerfully it seemed as though his head would fall off. He was a small and old man, but he was shrewd - his eyes darted around as though he knew things no one else did. He said, “We have friends don’t we? Let’s reach out and see if they’ll help us. The navy will be on watch”.

Chancellor Kane lifted his head almost optimistically, under the circumstances. He agreed to the proposals his officials brought foward and gave them permission to pursue the course they thought was best. He concluded the meeting and gave them leave. He shook their hands as they walked out of the room, looking at every face, concealing as much as possible and trying to look as brave as it possibly could.

Chancellor Kane walked to the window and looked at the city of Annuminas spread out before him. He had always been certain that the rivers of asphalt and the trees of concrete would always stand - that Adumara would never fall. Everyone else seemed oblivious, and continued to live their lives as best as they could. The contrast between reality and fiction was so vivid that everything seemed surreal. He was nearly convinced it was all a bad dream… Nearly convinced.

— End quote

Vespero Tondra was a goat herder in the Konrak district. He woke up early in the morning, just before the sun lifted his crown above the horizon, to take his goats to new places to find. The Konrak district spanned the desert of the same name and was located on the south eastern part of the country.

Rain was sporadic and scarce. Underground water was used to irrigate farms and supply the communities and businesses with the water that they needed. But to keep from overusing this non renewable resource, there were restrictions on how much water could be used. On some days the water pressure was decreased and on others the water was cut off on certain times in the day.

The people developed a rhythm that moved with how water would be distributed. Like Vespero, they woke very early to bathe, cook and clean. The mornings were surprisingly busy. Farmers were ploughing their fields and tending to their cattle. Mothers were bathing children, cooking food and cleaning their homes. Men went to work in some of the factories and mines in the area.

Vespero lived in a small village. Everyone knew each other and they were a close knit community. He would wave a neighbour and smile at a friend as he passed by. Vespero was not a particularly academically gifted child, so he had resolved not to go to university after completing his last high school year.

He was twenty three years old and was working hard to make enough money to marry the girl next door: Amika. He milk his goats and churned the thick white fluid in an old school churner, exerting incredible physical force to turn it into butter.

His mother would sell his butter at the market. He would spend the day roaming the dry sandy plains with his goats, searching for water and food. Although he wasn’t the brightest young man, he was loyal and trustworthy and knew the tricks of the deserts.

He knew when to slaughter his goat and tan its hide with the sun’s heat. He knew which herbs grew where and when. He knew which succulent plants to use for medicine and which tubers to tap for water and which trees to tap for syrup. The desert was the only thing he knew.

He faced blanched when he read the letter that had been left for him in the post box. The government was giving a notice that all young men would be drafted into the armed forces and had to report to their local military recruitment office in the next few days.

His mother sat in the kitchen, sobbing quietly a the table. Vespero ran to Amika’s house to tell her the news. From the pale and sickly expression she wore, she knew already. All the young men including her brother were being drafted. They sat next to each other in silence, absorbing the news he had just conveyed.

“Mi revenos. Ni geedziĝi. Ni havos infanojn - ĉio estos bone”, he said, almost as though he was trying to convince himself that everything would indeed be fine and that they had a future.

“Mi ne konsentas edzinigi vin”, she said. Her voice gave little away. Although her words denied that they would get married, her expression and tone gave nothing away.

He turned to look at her. He put his hand on her thigh. She did not move or take it away. He leaned forward and kissed her on the lips. She exerted pressure too. Their kiss was a mutual act of attraction. He was satisfied.

Operation Rip Tide
Near the border of Kanida, Yuno, and Adumara
10/24/2017

With repeated bombings to the northern part of the border Kuthern and Yuno forces were able exploit the lack of manpower to the south, a contingency of 12 KUH-63 troop helicopters and 6 Kah-67 Attack helicopters flew low near the borders. The 52nd Royal Kuthern Marines started to set up for battle, 3 marines quickly made a dirt hill and planted a MB47 Venom Automatic Gernade Launcher pointed directly at the enemy compounds. 10km Northwest of the 52nd Marines were the 808 Armored Division, they were to provide fire support as well as reinforcements. 15 Couger 3K7+ the newest in the Couger class creeped towards there position, meanwhile 4 KSLAV, 3 Python’s, 5 K-117, and 10 ShrubMaster sped down the road towards the 52nd with ETA for arrival in 15 minutes.

Lt Colonel. Iorwerth Couch commanding the 52nd order the mortar teams to prepare for fire, if the plans go as purposed the Nacatan Airforce was to send 4 NB-14 bombers to start the light show dropping 36× 750 lb NBU class bombs. With NF-52 and NF-19 fighters provided additional air control along with the Kuthern Airforce.

As the time past someone noticed the whistling sound, “GET DOWNN” the soldier screamed, as the bombs dropped Couch order the troops to fire, the sound of mortars and grenades being launched filled the sky . The Tanks also started there bombardments, the soldiers now had to wait the last 5 Minutes for the reinforcements to arrive to start there assault.

Taikow Islands
Operation Free Jihad
Joint TAC- Al-Jaheed Operation

Azwer Hana a Kurdish Latian and a member of Al-Jaheed stepped out of his vehicle and pulled the clip out for his KA-49 assault rifle, he was apart of a group of 120 Terrorist that were preparing to wage war on the islands. On top of a roof a TAC sniper using a SR-16 sniper stolen from Kuthernburg during the war in Latianburg started the assault. The bullets bounce off the walls, the crowds proceeded to run and scream another bullet followed killing a women , TAC and Al-Jaheed insurgents started to pour in the streets shooting anyone in site, “Dizanim cawa” the screamed in the streets.

The insurgents quickly stormed the police station overpowering the un-prepared and small forces inside the local station, after killing them all they proceeded to make a video with the last 8 officers.

“Greetings, here i have in front of me 8 men who does not believe Allah is the greatest, these men are apostates!! We will help our TAC brothers install a legitimate government and self governance. I send this warning to Asendavia, Yuno, Kuthernburg, Nacata, South Hills, Adumara, Chianski, Vultuca, Duelland and most of all Latianburg.” the man looks into the camera with his face cover and pulls out a machete. " Dizanim cawa"!! he says before cutting into the mans throat before slicing his head off. “Finish them off record it and send it to the filthy bastards” the mysterious man walked off. The insurgents empty there assault rifles into the officers leaving the body’s filled with smoke.

Imperium, Greater Xagrurgian Empire
With the streets bustling as always (and stuck in gridlock), the social lives of the common people were back to normal after the Auroran-Pacific War. With the hype of who is going to win the Xagrurgian election, everything does seem a little more energetic however. Meanwhile in the Presidential Manor, there is a secret meeting behind closed doors between the entire cabinet of Erwin Pipua’s advisors and a couple of military strategists.
High Commander Erwin Pipua: “Good afternoon everyone, you may be wondering why I have convened all of you today.”
(Everybody nods in agreement)
“I have brought you here to discuss something that will probably lead to the possible downfall or restoration of glory of the Greater Xagrurgian Empire.”
(Everybody suddenly becomes interested and the Secretary of Defense asks Erwin.)
Secretary of Defense Fiphua Lincoln: “What are you bringing our great nation into sir?”
Erwin Pipua: “Hang on, let me elaborate first, then you can ask questions.” (Everyone settles down and Erwin resumes talking.)
“Today I have convened all of you today because I individually picked each of you for your expertise in your respective fields. Today, this great nation will need those skills greatly. You all may have heard on XNNN of the rapidly escalating tensions between the FPA and Xagrurg. There is no doubt that war WILL break out. As so, I have called you people upon to propose how to prepare for the upcoming conflict.”
(One of the military strategists begins explaining how Adumara’s allies, more specifically the SEPC, will not be supporting them. Another suggests possible staging points for the invasion into Adumara.)
Secretary of Defense Fiphua Lincoln: “Hopefully, we won’t need more than those 30 thousand men we are sending into the grinder. If need to be, we can always draw more troops from the guards or as a last ditch resort, enact the war draft, though this would seriously piss people off. Furthermore, we can station spies in Adumara to gather intelligence for our landing areas for our paratroopers.”
Foreign Minister John Smith: “I propose we solidify our current alliances and expand our diplomatic contacts with the regional powers in the area of Adumara.”
Economic Minister Will Toklen: “To help fund the war effort and keep us in the conflict longer, we can mobilize the economy by placing key industries under state control, such as General Guns, though will probably hurt as long run as we can’t collect taxes from them. Instead, I propose a second option; we can raise taxes. Although unpopular, we can at least keep spending money on bombs and weaponry.”
Erwin Pipua: “Thank you people, I will take all of your advice in account when this conflict starts and I’ll give the order to fly some spies into Adumara after this meeting is over. You’re all dismissed. God bless Xagrurg.” (Meeting disperses)
[hr]
Xagrurgian Central High Command, Fort Wahington
With the possibility of the Staynish-Calthrusian Empire attacking Xagrurg growing once again, the High Command orders the border guards to be on alert. Furthermore, several construction crews are sent to the SCE-GXE border to begin building defenses such as sandbags, land mines, and bunkers.

Minister Dhurgon,

In your recent communication with our Foreign Secretary, Jackson Woolf, you cited Secretary Woolf’s reasonable request to ensure the safety of him and his staff as “minor” and “insignificant.” I can assure you that an impending conflict with nations of the FPA and Yuno, coupled with the increase in activity of terrorist cells in your nation, are neither minor nor insignificant. While it brings me some comfort to know that measures have been taken to ensure my delegation’s safety, your cavalier attitude at which you approach the entire situation begs the question if you actually understand the gravity of your predicament. Are actual appropriate measures being taken to ensure the safety, given the rising tensions?

I cannot rely upon your assessment of safety measures. You are the chief diplomat of your nation, and I am positive the other delegates you have invited have some relationship with the nations currently bearing down on Adumara. Use your position, get a truce for the duration of the conference. We can achieve more progress this way, instead of worrying about our safety.

If you need any assistance pursuing a truce, please do not hesitate to contact myself or Secretary Woolf.

Sincerely,

Jacopo d’Arrigo
Magistrate of Furnifold

James Dhurgon was disappointed by the Furnifoldian response, but he had not been entirely surprised. It was difficult to trivialise the impending war and the skirmishes in the northern part of the country and even more difficult to assuage the fears of those whose safety was directly dependent upon events there.

Regardless, James Dhurgon was optimistic because officials from a number of countries promised to attend. Business people and government officials from Staynes, Caltharus, South Staynes, Oan Isles, Asian Pacific Islands, Free Sylvin, Rightport and Blueacia had affirmed their attendance. In fact, they were all steadily arriving for the conference.

James Dhurgon knew that the conference would not be the knell that killed the momentum of the war, but at least it gave Adumara the moral high ground and would elicit, a world war the likes of which had not, thusfar, been seen. No attack on Adumara would be quiet and quick. It would be drawn and damaging. But they would never capitulate without a fight.

Operation Free Jihad
Joint TAC- Al-Jaheed Operation

“Kill them kill them” Naadir el-Ahmed a TAC fighter screamed across the courtyard as he sporadically shoots his KA-67, he attempts to run across the courtyard but receives heavy resistance from Adumaran Police force. “I need re-enforcement were is Al-Jaheed, get Azwer Hana on the line tell him we need artillery support”, after receiving the word Hana quickly mobilizes the forces. Over the course since the Litop invasion, Al-Jaheed had manage to steal weapons from nations that were involved, they also receive much needed supplies from Pax-Draconia. Troops had been airlifted from Asistan via Commercial flights to the Islands ,the Jihadist poured in by the hundreds. The Al-Jaheed Airforce while extremly small only consisting of 8 Fighters 4 Mik-21s and 4 Mik-23s a few dozen helicopters and 18 UAVs stolen from the Asistan Airforce.

Baldwin City, Baldwin, South hills
Operation Lone Wolved
10/26/2017

Inside a safe house several online recruited Al-Jaheed members from south hills who couldn’t join the fight in Taikow , followed the words of Allah and planned there alone wolf attack on South Hills. The members had recently been watching how to make a bomb and were planning a small time operation to bomb the subway in the city, in the process they would kill as many people as possible before killing themselves in a suicide bomb attack.

What is a man? What defines him? Is it the values by which he leads his life? Is it the God he blasphemes or worships? Is it the pride, pain and regret by which he acts and upon which he builds? Is it his potency as a lover, his charisma as a speaker, his loyalty as a soldier? A man is often certain of very little.

He will search the panoramas of the time and space in which he exists. He will arrive at a single point: he is certain of nothing yet sure of all. He cannot prove the merit of his actions and thought or explain the value that they possess. A feeling, an ancient emotion from somewhere deep, tells him that he must act, he must do, that while his own identity eludes him, his task is before him.

In moments when all he is really sure of is his own breathing, he will ascribe to himself the name of that which he does. Vesper Tondra took a deep breath and looked out of the open door at the back of the armoured personnel carrier hearkening him to battle and concluded: I am a soldier.

He slinged his HA CR-18 assault rifle over his shoulder and bore it in his hands. He felt the cold of the metal and the weight of the steel. He charged out of the vehicle, roaring like a lion: I am ready for battle. He was part of a standard fireteam, that formed the basic unit of the Adumaran land forces: a fireteam.

It was helmed by a Corporal. He was one of two riflemen. Another was the grenadier and the other was the automatic riflemen. They had to move as one body, like a machine. They had eaten, trained and drank together, and awkwardly tried to fit in a shower together. They were being prepared for the task ahead and the strong bonds and the united sense of purpose that would frame their attack.

The island of Toron was the venue of the aar against the Al Jaheed. Two mechanised infantry and one armoured division formed the body that would retake control of the islands from the Al Jaheed. A machine gun was mounted on a light armoured infantry vehicle. The riflemen shot at their targets, covering attacks on all angles, while the grenadier prepared to throw his tiny weapon.

There were several towns and villages on the island of Toron. The Adumarans split the islands into blocks. A force was sent into each block so as to divide the Al Jaheed forces. This came from a combinate of aerial and land attack. Helicopters circled around a particular site and used their machine guns to flush them out.

Then the light infantry vehicles moved in to strike them. The gun fire lasted hours. The sound of bullets bursting forth from the barrel of a rifle echoed across the island. Vespero Tondra’s team surrounded an Al Jaheed team of combatants. They jumped out of the light military artillery, and went head to head with them.

So much of my life is spent looking at the sausage-like appendage attached to my abdomen. What do I need it for exactly? It seems to fill most of my waking hours with questions about how to make it firm. It’s annoying because it lies at the centre of my purpose.

When I look at Amika, it affirms my attraction. That attraction should form the basis of my masculinity. That attraction should say, “You’re a man now”. But it feels hopelessly inadequate to address my identity. This crisis of what do I mean. What does my stamina mean, what does my strength mean? What is the purpose of all that I am, when all that I am can be construed to that thing between my legs.

When you enter a battle, it’s different. It’s like your heart knows only one thing: to pump your blood and stiffen your muscles, rather than pontificate on love or dwell on its own convoluted emotions. I like the feeling of being here. I hate the reasons and the reality for it.

Firstly, there are no reasons that come from within me. I was perfectly happy herding goats, until I had to defend the " honour and freedom of the Republic". The second is the reality of it. I am always shit scared of every snap, throb, bang, boom, and whoosh. I am always looking over my head, wary of things that will sever it from my head.

When does a person become complete? When can I say I am who I am and be convinced that I am telling the truth, that I am making sense? When can I say, I am here and I have had enough. Apparently the Creator of the Universe, whomever that may be, conceives of the purpose and meaning and value of each person. But it eludes me. And He is a bit difficult to relate to.

I wish it made sense. But it never does. And I doubt it ever will. I hope it does eventually. And if not I hope these voices and questions shut up long enough to enable me to shoot the bloody Jaheedi in the head and be on my way. I just keep staring at his stupid, and undeservedly surprised expression. It’s almost as though he is surprised that he would die.

Well, so am I.

Block D
TAC Al-Jaheed Operations
Intense Firefighting

“Ahaluuu Bakaaar!!” a Al-Jaheed soldier screamed while firing his MG-9 machine gun, strategically the Al-Jaheed forces were corned and needed assistants out of Block D back to Block G. 40 Militants ran into another building “Get the sniper in the window!” Ishaaq al-Rabbani the leader of the 15th Al-Jaheed infantry, a TAC rebel quickly ran into the window with his SR-19. Another soldier quickly runs to another window and launches a RPI-1 rocket launcher at one of the light armored vehicles, "give me another one, hurry’ the soldier says. Meanwhile 5 more rebels run upstairs and start to unload a barrage of bullets from there KA-67s and Ka-65 assault rifles "Ahaluuuu Bakaaarr " the screamed while firing, the other rebels quickly started hammering away at the wall to exit the building. Ishaaq radio in for the 3rd Vehicle Al-Jaheed Vehicle infantry, “Were on Block D were corned by the Adumara forces, quickly get here”.

The militants successfully, break the back wall and start to pour out the building heading through the allyway, they placed three IEDs in the building, and 2 in the allyway as they ran back, the militants quickly turn around and notice the 3rd VIs coming up the street in 5 Aztecs and 4 Grant 7s. The Vehicles started to unload there machine guns while loading the rebels in, they quickly back up and return to let the others know.

Block D
Toron Island
Taikow

The rocket launcher blew one Light Infantry Vehicle, tearing the chassis from the body and sending the thing in smoke. It resisted actually burning, courtesy of Halifax Industry’s military division.

The team within had dismounted, by the corporal broke his leg, forcing his team, his parabotai, to take him to safety. The Adumarans ran behind them, sending a cloud of bullets their direction. One Adumaran lost his eye and a portion of his brain after a return shot.

An attack helicopter swerved around the building and as the Al Jaheedi poured out of the back wall, a rocket was sent toward them…

Block B
Toron Island
Taikow

There was a hospital on block B. It was a fairly large hospital. It was the only one on the island. The community was ordinarily served by clinics and family doctors and herbal healers. The more severe or chronic cases were sent to the capable hands of the fancy machinery and qualified doctors for treatment.

A small community had sprung up around the hospital that included houses for doctors, nurses and other staff, a small shopping center, apartments for student doctors and nurses, recreational facilities, a small power and water station. The village was a little bit away from the other settlements on Toron Island, and was really a separate settlement.

The Adumarans had quickly realised the importance of protecting the hospital and preventing the enemy from getting it. They set up command activated mines. Adumaran trucks and ambulances could enter freely, everyone else was forced to stay out.

There were 80 missile launchers on the various platforms of the hospital. They would protect the hospital from a land and aerial attack. Tanks sat comfortably around the village preparing to shoot at any potential enemies.

[hr]
Block A
Toron Island
Taikow

Block A had been cleared of all civilians. The Adumarans had arrived here first. They used the honey bee method. Rather than build heavy defences to protect the small collection of apartment buildings and basic amenities like a gas station, shops, a clinics, kindergartens and a school, they invited the Jaheedi’s in and prepared a nice stew of the “Japanese Honey Bee” method.[edit_reason]changed columns to mines[/edit_reason]

Block G & 43rd Ave
Little Village, Taikow
Toron Island

The sound of a ASH-2 Towed Artillery could be heard in the background launching, the once beautiful City of Taikow is now slowly beginning to turn into a warzone. During a siege last night by the Adumaran forces 30 Al-Jaheed members were killed around Block C after intense firefighting between the forces. Azwer Hana had prepared a strategic plan to launch a offensive back to capture Block D, he knew it would be risky and would require them to use creative tactics to lure the Adumaran forces closer. " I want you to position our artillery to point just due East of the tallest building on Block D, i want 80 of my men moved into position just behind block D then another 200 Tac soldiers to be on the opposite side. We will circle them in and take the block back, Ahaluuuu Bakaaarr !!" he says.

The Al-Jaheed soldiers loaded up 3 AV56 AFVs, 4 RTY-7 Light tanks and 12 Aztec troop carriers, the quickly started to drive off from the base. While driving past fellow citizens under there control and other rebels they shout “Ahalu Bakar” while raising the Al-Jaheed and TAC flags high. They were to distract the Adumaran forces from the impending Tac coalition still getting ready. Just before the approached Block D they noticed the Adumaran soldiers looking through the ruble “Ahaluuuu Bakaarrr” before the soldiers started to unleash the 50 cal from the Aztec Truck. It started to shred chunks off the buildings as it hit, the rest of the personal hidden inside the AV56 deployed out carrying Assault Rifles and Machine gun started to lay Suppressing fire as the sniper breaks for the top of a building.

The Artillery shells started to land near the Adumaran Soldiers and Al-Jaheed rebels, around 25 minutes after the first Al-Jaheed force arrived to distract the forces the TAC rebels had just arrived at the other end of the block. 8 GT+1 MBTs were the first to arrive, the battle for Block D was just starting. The Al-Jaheed posted on there tweeter accounts more propaganda to encourage more fighters to join them.

Inside A Subway Station

3 Men cautiously waited inside a subway station carrying there backpacks, the men identify as Raashid al-Hoda. Abdul Lateef al-Saade, and Sahl al-Abood. They were apart of the Al-Jaheed lone wolf terror ring, they had recently watched a propaganda video that made them want to convert to Islam and Al-Jaheed a few weeks prior. As the men waited Abdul started to walk to the other end of the platform as if to board the front of the train, meanwhile Raashid went upstairs to the main area. As the train pulled into the station the men open there book bags and pulled out there KA-55, the passenger exited and they proceeded to start to shoot the platform up, Abdul shot the train driver and pushed the train into full power with passengers still on board. Raashid started to kill the passengers attempting to run away from the area. “Ahaluuu Bakaarr” they screamed as the two men inside the tunnel proceeded to blow there selves up, Raashid decided to run upstairs were he noticed a barrage of police he started to shoot at them, he was high of opium and extremely aggressive. Eventually the police shot him in his arm and leg as he fall he screams “Ahalu Bakar” and proceeds to also detonate the suicide bomb attached to his chest.

Border with Yuno

A section of the wall collapsed. A rocket had been fired at it. The bricks and concrete crumbled as the powerful rocket collided with them. Bombers dropped large bombs onto the Yunoan side of the border. Fixed artillery sent ballistic missile hurtling in the direction of Yuno.

Blockade of Carthagos

Fixed artillery sent ballistic missiles in the direction of ships that were dealing with burning water.

Border with Adumara

Being caught of guard the soldiers weren’t able to quickly respond, they backed up radioing in for the reenforcments just few minutes away. The Sirens rung as the Kuthern KHADD system sprung into action launching Anti-Ballistic missiles at the incoming missiles, the faint sound of gunfire in the looming distant was a clear factor that the Adumarans had finally went on the offensive. A soldier mounted his KN-14 machine gun onto a barrier defense just near the wall, the barrage of suppressing fire gave 20 soldiers from the 201 Fighting Infantry ability to move up few meters. “This way move it!, get me a tank over here ASAP” LT. Caradawg Seff screamed at the soldiers. 20 Minutes into the intense fire fight 4 Couger 3K7+ MBTs rolled up deploying smoke, the soldiers moved forward towards the border, " Get over here!" a soldier screams as he throws a KH3 incendiary grenade over the wall. The grenade explodes burning at 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit, damaging, immobilizing and destroy vehicles, weapons systems, shelters and munitions. Several more were thrown over the wall, before the tanks started there assault laying cover fire.

On top of Hill 348 10 miles away from the boarder, 4 Kerul MLRS and 6 KV277 Howitzer received orders to lay down cover support for the infantry. The rocket sounds launching from the Kerul’s could be heard from miles away as if million birds were squeaking at once, “Fire!”, “Reload”, “Aim”, “Fire”! the Howitzer crew repeated. Hill 348 was in process of being reinforced by the marines flying in from the Naval ships.

RKAF scrambled 2 AC-135 from Boulderclutch Air Force Base and 1 KE-6 Leocharm AWACS towards Adumara, while 6 Kuthern Raptor’s took off from a airbase in Yuno.

NSTO HQ
Luxchumberg, Subrovania
Emergency Meeting

Secretary of State for Defence Detjya Putin(Kuthernburg), Defense Minister Duejo Getuog(Nacata), Supreme Commander Goran Olsson(Kasmiyland), Minister of Defence Jorgen Mork (Crania), Minister of Defense Sigbjorn Kjellberg(Subrovania), and Marshal Of The Royal Airforce Vernhard Jasonsson(Latianburg) assembled inside a private meeting room to discuss the actions taking against Kuthernburg after they told Adumaran Government that both Yuno and Kuthernburg would pull back to the border.

" We have a firm commitment to NSTO, we are a part of NSTO. We have a firm commitment to Gondwana. We are a part of Gondwana. What we are not apart of is Concordia, i feel that this matter should be more focused to the member states in Adumara such as Lessau and Latianburg. South Hills has failed to do anything about this situation and i don’t see how or why we should support Yuno." MoD Jorgen Mork says.

“I bear solemn witness to the fact that NSTO heads of state and of government meet only to go through the tedious motions of reading speeches, drafted by others, with the principal objective of not rocking the boat. Dammit!! we are going to loose alot of men out there if we do not support them, Kuthernburg alone can not fight that war. Were a defense organization how dare you think it is not our responsibility to honor our commitment to help, Adumaran government has refused to allow peace between the two we will give them what they want i say!!” MoD Sigbjorn Kjellberg replies to Mork.

“I think would send a very strong message to government of Adumara that NSTO countries and Kasmiyland are going to respond by growing stronger economically and strategically. Whether Yuno is a NSTO country or not, it doesn’t give Adumara the right to invade Yuno or any other country according to the international law or to any other moral value. We do have treaty obligations with our NSTO allies therefore we will back Kuthernburg” Supreme Commander Goran Olsson said to the group sitting at the table rambling.

“I don’t understand what the president’s of South Hills position is on Adumara. But I can tell you what my position is on Adumara: Adumara is a great danger to a lot of its neighbors, and they have as one of there core objectives fracturing Yuno so much that it turns into Astistan” Secretary of State for Defence Detjya Putin burst out saying during the meeting.

“Right now, where do we stand? Well right at the Adumaran border, both sides have been taking provocative actions, both sides are building up military forces. Kuthern/Yuno forces are carrying out maneuvers hundreds of yards from the Adumaran border, the Adumaran jets are buzzing Kuthern/Yuno jets. Things reached the boiling point and now Adumara has taking things to far and NSTO will step in, I recommend we get in close contact with South Hills and discussion with Queen on Yuno tell then lets vote on weather or not we defend. All in favor say Aye if Not Nay” Defense Minister Duejo Getuog says as they post there votes in.

“4 Aye’s and 3 Nays, we will coordinate a plan. This is not a full blown war and were not going to turn it into one we will neutralize the threat and talk with Adumaran government.” Putin says.

Border With Yuno

I did a lot of screaming when I was at the border, but I could not hear myself above the noise of the guns and the war. I was holding the machine gun in the light infantry vehicle, feeling powerful as the weapon buzzed and heated up in my hands. It fired hundreds of rounds in a minute. One of my targets was a group of soldiers who had come scarily close to the border. I wonder if they made it out. Don’t care.

Our division was made up of light infantry vehicles and mobile artillery like tanks and mobile anti air turrets that moved in two branches like the horns of a cow. We were able to look out for one another and maximse the intensity of our fire, by working together as mechanised infantry and artillery. Damn! There were so many of us! I did not, up until that point, get what 24,000 people and thousands of hardware looked like when it was all used at once. And we weren’t the only ones. There were at least five other divisions at five other points of the border.

These damn Cyntians and Kutherns attacked us first! I mean, how the fudge do you ask us to sell half our country off just because y’all breed like rabbits? Classic case of denial! Nah. We are doing the right thing. The whole world will see that. Hey! We may even do these Cynthians a favour by giving them a taste of democracy and the physical power of a good man. I couldn’t help myself. Oh, by the way, my name is Richard Salvador, but my friends call me Ricky.
I pushed up the bridge of my helmet and saw pretty explosions in the sky like stars burning and exploding. About a hundred Adumaran fighter jets faced off with the Cynthian and Kuthern planes. They swooped around in pairs. Because Kuthern planes were a little better at dog fights, we didn’t wanna take a chance. So at least two planes would stay close to each other, looking out for the other one. When one got chased, the other attacked. They flew in circles around enemy jets then broke the formation flying up and down respectively like a big ole’ zig zag, but keeping in the circle formation. It was marvelous!

It wasn’t the size of your weapon that mattered. It was the size of the guts you had to push it. We’ve seen wars in Astistan and Konrak and Tainow and Chianksi and Latianburg. It’s what Adumarans do! We fight. We kick, scratch and claw our way to victory and we don’t hold back. We know our shit. Excuse the Oicheuve. My language skills get carried away 'is all.

Blockade on Carthagos

Hey. My name is Teodoro Venta. But you can call me Teddy. All my friends do. Well. I don’t have many friends. But I imagine that’s what they’d all call me if a I did. I am a sailor on one of the Adumaran destroyers. I am in the unfortunate position of being parked right outside of Carthagos, protecting our country from attack.

These Fire Poop or Fire Pact dudes, or whatever are cruel as fu… funnel caek. Fudging hate funnel caek! They just come with their canoes and boats and say, “Give us your country because you gave our friend a slap on the face”! What is that? Chianski deserved so much more. And ironically the very country we fought for, Latianburg, has turned on us! Their colonial master, Kuthernburg or some shite of that ilk, is busy attacking us! They are ungrateful stuff from the bottom of my shoe.

After everything we do for them, they turn on us. They don’t even say thank you! I heard apparently they gave the Oan Isles and Furnifold gifts and parades for helping them out. At least send a fruit basket! They deserve everything we do to them!

One of our scientist cooked up a crazy scheme to burn the water off Carthagos port. Apparently when you put potassium in water, it burns! I was stunned. So we poured oil over the ships. It was the fuel that carried the fire over the ships. As the bubbles from under the water rose up, the oxygen inside made the fire go up in big columns. That was some serious mad scientist stuff, right there!

So then we sent a whole bunch of missile in their direction. The great thing about Carthagos is that it’s a fairly small space to attack. The land surrounding us is mountains and cliffs that go up hundreds of feet into the sky. Carthagos is like the dimple on a cheek. It’s a fairly small depression in this tall landscape so that maximises our attack.

It would be hard to make it work in open waters. But the Fire Poop is forced to concentrate their blockade and attack on a not-so-big area. So that magnifies the power of our crazy scheme. Our attack does not end there. The missiles we fired, aren’t real missiles. We didn’t wanna use our real weapons just yet. It’s kinda like marinating the beef before you cook it.

They contained a fairly affordable chemical that causes skin, eye and nasal irritation. It’s nothing deadly, but it hurts like a beast. It’s like getting an onion and salt rubbed into an open wound. I hope these Fire Pix people remember not to mess with us! We are Adumara and we don’t take bull from nobody!

Border With Adumara

“Bloody hell, mate get the damn shell in machine. This bagger hags think they can attack the Queendom, well ill be damn if i allow that. Were going give it all we got, we tried the peaceful way i cant wait for the reenforcements going give it all we … got…” a marine soldier from the 88th fighting squadron screamed while reloading shells into there KV277 Howitzer. The marines had landed late at night from the RKS Sertobia Aircraft carrier, it was if with the carrier heavens gate opened up and gave them air superiority. Her flight decks were busy with men in different color jackets running around her decks, her graceful moving in the seas gave the aircraft a smooth takeoff. 3 EA-19 Eagles took off the newest of aircraft to the Marines inventory, fitted with five SMG-33 jamming pods and two KIM-20 AMRAAM, they were to be guarded by the Kuthern Raptors and provide key Radar jamming and deception.

As they approached the front lines, 6 Kuthern raptors broke from there wingman positions, they were replaced by 4 F-19 Advanced Eagle. They were aware of the enemy long before seeing them, the Eagles started to jam radar and aircraft radars, the raptors quickly went towards the enemy aircraft, the flares looked like angels as they dispersed from the aircrafts, “Fox 1” a pilot screams over the radio. Soon following a barrage of long range missiles went shooting towards the enemy aircraft, 14 in all. The pilots quickly break and form into smaller groups of 3 ,

20 miles east of the dogfight, the AC-135s arrived near the border in the dark , the first plane large 105 mm L440 howitzer cannon started to shoot at enemy ground positions, the second aircraft quickly following with a barrage of bullets from it’s 5-barreled Gatling cannon. Using the attacks as a advantage the Kuthern forces now reinforced by the marines pushed forward to secure the border, they deploy drones over the border viewing the enemy’s positions shooting across the brick walls. They move forward cautiously , 2 soldiers moved out they launched there spear anti-tank missiles at 2 enemy MBTs a few 100 yards away. 5 KSLAVs quickly went up the road laying suppressing fire as the soldiers start shooting at the Adumaran soldiers.

November 8th, 2017
Operation New Guinea
NSTO Joint Mission
60 Miles off the Chianski coast.

The NSTO dispatched it joint forces from Latianburg, Lessau, Kasmiyland and Nacata under direct orders to secure the Yuno boarder and get peace negotiations going. They could assist there allies in the FPA but it would be limited to ground resources, transportation, logistics, counter-terrorism, transport, and emergency evac, they were to arrive off the coast of Yuno by the 10th. Carrying a total of 32,000 soldiers onboard 14 Naval vessels and a assortment of aircraft flying sorties straight out of Latianburg it was critical that they got talks going with adumara.
