This is for OOC discussion about the ongoing crisis thread. Keep it civil, please.

[Nerotysia]

I think it may be a good idea for everyone to outline what their geography is like. Nerotysia's coastal areas are quite nice, if a bit cold, but a mountain range runs through its center/north. Most of its cities are on or near this fertile coast, however its capital is ensconced within the mountain range, in a small valley.

And so, the great and wise commanders of Nerotysia had made their decision after much deep ponderance.

"Screw it, let's attack. What could go wrong?"

Thank you for making this topic. May I take it that Cavendown Island is the island between Alexiandra and Situs?

And as for my ORBAT - an Ausitorian Fleet Theatre and an Ausitorian Field Army - Ausitorian forces currently designated for Alexiandran waters include 3 hyper-carriers (1 Ausitoria Class and 2 Noble Class, c. 800,000 tons), 6 super-carriers of various types (c. 100,000 tons), 4 battleships (Legion Class, c. 70,000 tons), 6 helicopter/drone carriers (c. 50,000 tons), 10 amphibious assault ships (c. 25,000 tons), 5 battlecruisers (c. 25,000 tons), 12 cruisers (15,000 tons), 14 radar cruisers (Whitpont Class, 10,000 tons), 9 monitors (Whitpont Class, 10,000 tons), 46 light cruisers (c. 6000-8000 tons), 20 nuclear attack submarines (various sizes), 22 diesel attack submarines (various sizes), 21 transport ships (various sizes), and a 60,000 men expeditionary force including c. 4,000 tanks, c. 8,000 IFVs, c. 20,000 self-propelled artillery pieces, and 10,000 people worrying about tactical supplies. In addition to 'fleet' aircraft (c. 2500 in number, including copious quantities of helicopters, airlift aircraft, UAVs, and AWACS aircraft), a further 6,000 aircraft - mostly fighters, strategic supply, and AWACS aircraft - can be flown in with time and if airbases can be found to operate them from.

Incidentally, this information is publicly available. While this force may look scary to some, it is relatively thin on normal soldiers or normal fighter aircraft.

My own geography may be found with reference to the wiki in my signature, and I will be happy to answer questions or draw more detailed sections of coastline - I am making a map with improved resolution (36 times better) but it is slow work.

I'm afraid not. Cavendown Island isn't actually a part of Greysteel - you'll have to contact the player behind that account in order to ascertain its location.

Expect a post tomorrow, guys.
