Novayan-Cardulan Military Training (CLOSED|MT-PMT)

[Novaya Equestria]

Operation Good Resolve is the name for the military training. It is an annual command post training (CPT) held by the Novaya Equestrian Reichswehrmacht and the Reichswaffen-SS, and conducted with the Queendom of Cardulan Armed Forces. The head of the military exercise is Field Marshal Flash Code, commander of the Novaya Equestrian Expeditionary Forces to Great Lucis & Accordo and Esalonia.

It is conducted between May and July and focuses on Novaya Equestrian Western Command OPLANs that support the defense of Cardulan. Additionally, Novayan units are moved to Cardulan from other areas and they conduct maneuvers and gunnery exercises. Cardulanian units will be taught maneuvers with some acting as the OPFOR.

NOTE: This is an RP only for both Cardulan and Novaya Equestria. So your argument is invalid. Also, I suck at descriptions.

[Cardulan]

The revolution in Cardulan was the first one in years and the only one which brought significant changes to the land. It was the Queen who introduced these changes. For the first time, it was not the social standing or the family which decided the fate of a soldier but his skills alone.

The first officers to participate in the Military Training offered by Novaya Equestria where all hand-picked. All of them were Chevaliers of the Order of the Whitethorne. All of them had been though war and all of them had distinguished themselves.

The choice of the men who went to Novaya Equestria has caused some confusion in Cardulan. Normally positions as prestigious as these would have been reserved for the sons of the nobility. This was different with the men which had been send to receive training in Novaya Equestria they all came from different backgrounds and regions.

[Novaya Equestria]

Here I am! This will turn into something useful tomorrow.

OOC: Eeyup!

[Cardulan]

OOC: Ready when you are.

"Alright kids, listen up. This is your first time in Novaya Equestria, right? I'm glad that Borealis hoof-picked me into helping you Cardulanians learn the ways of the military. I am Field Marshal Flash Code, commander of the Novaya Equestrian Expeditionary Forces to Great Lucis and Accordo and Esalonia. Me and my guys here will bring you people to the academies of the Novaya Equestrian military: the Army Academy, Air Force Academy, Marine Corps Academy, Naval Academy, and the Overseas Security and Military Colleges university." Said the grizzly stallion who leads them to seven buses. "Like I said, we'll teach ya the ways of the military, which has been modeled after the US Military's ways. Also, try not to litter. Borealis hated that. Now board the buses and you'll be brought to the academies. Buses' equipped with two-way comms screens so that you can talk to me." Field Marshal Flash Code said to the Chevaliers as he boards his Humvee. The marshal activates his two-way comms screen and said, "If any of you guys have questions, please do so."

[Cardulan]

Quickly the men scattered and marched towards their buses. Not one of the men spoke a word as they climbed into the buses. For centuries, Cardulan's miltary doctrine had been about following orders and not asking questions. Or winning battles for that matter. While these men were the best, the Queen had to offer the all knew that they were here to represent their nation and their Queen. They also knew that each of their moves would be closely watched by the Royal Ministry of Security.

Silently the men waited in their buses to be driven to their respective facilities.

The buses then drove these officers to their respective facilities as the Humvee that the Field Marshal rode has left for the Overseas Security and Military College university. Each bus brought the officers to each of the Reichswehrmacht's service branch academy. The buses arrives on the academies where the Chevaliers were to be educated. "Alright, guys. This is yer stop! You can now enter the academy!" The bus drivers said, waiting for them to go out of the buses and enter the military academies.

[Cardulan]

The soldiers jumped from the buses and quickly moved towards their new accommodations. It was the same picture at each of the academies, young men tried get into the buildings, fast and without making much trouble. Only the members of the Royal Border Guards assumed formation and marched towards their academy in and orderly fashion.

"Alright, Cardulanians. Your designated classrooms is here. Enter said designated classrooms in an orderly fashion, understand?" Field Marshal Flash Code, who used the Novaya Equestrian military's radio to broadcast his instructions via speakers, said. "Find your seats before Reichspraesident Borealis will notice yer not there." He added.

[Cardulan]

Upon this commando, the rest of the men assumed formations and marched into their classrooms. They assumed positions behind their desks and waited for the instructors to arrive and begin with the first lesson. Most of them were surprised by the speed and efficiency with which the Equestrian military worked. They had expected to be shown the premises and their rooms first but instead they started working right away. They really were lucky to have the chance to come here. They were about to learn a lot in the next few moths.

Then military instructors arrived as they began with the first lesson. THe instructors taught them everything regarding the military, its organizations, logistics, and others. The instructors also taught them about every kinds of warfare.

OOC: Sorry for da short post.

[Cardulan]

OOC: Don't worry about short posts.

The time in the Academies of Equestria was a really hard time for most of the men, the military ideas of the two nations often clashed and some of the strategies and tactics used by the host forces seemed to innovative and radical for the guests. Nevertheless they all tried to keep up with the material provided to them and did their best to understand the technology and the strategies behind the military might of the Reichswehrmacht.

The instructors then taught the Chevaliers the concepts of expeditionary warfare and expeditionary maneuver warfare. They taught them that expeditionary maneuver warfare is the current concepts that guides how the Novaya Equestrian Marine Corps organizes, deploys and employs its forces. Utilizing maneuver warfare and the Marine Corps' expeditionary heritage, EMW emphasizes strategically agile and tactically flexible Marine Air Ground Task Forces with the capability to project power against critical points in the littorals and beyond.

Esteemed leadership of Novaya Equestria,

we are very proud that our men perform so well on your institutions. The progress they made in this short time is really impressive. We wish to inform you that we would like to see the training intensified. In case that the men or some of them can no longer keep up with the standards please inform us immediately so we can recall them. If possible we would like the men to be embedded into your troops to practice their new skills for some time.

Lord Argond XXIII (Royal Minister of War)

Dear Lord Argond XXIII,

Thanks for the telegram. If you say some of the men don't keep up with the standards, we will likely adjust them immediately. We will accept your men to be embedded into the Reichswehrmacht. Also, it's best to send some of your soldiers to join the fun. Elements from the 1st SS-Panzergrenadier Division Leibstandarte SS Borealis, the 1st Marine-Wizard Division for Special Purpose/Joint Ops, the 5th Marine Division, the 2nd SS Panzer Division Das Reichsmilitaerstaat, the 3rd SS Panzer Division Totenkopf, the Kampfgruppe Lehr Division, and a few Volksgrenadier Divisions were preparing for an amphibious landing exercise. We will also expect your troops to participate.

Your Excellency,

it seems as if you focus a lot on the use of combined arms and tanks. We will send tank troops along with their own equipment to Novaya Equestria to participate in the maneuver. The Queen would be interested in forming a permanent unit of volunteers from Cardulan who serve with the Reichswehrmacht and who will be under Equestrian command. We would suggest a division sized unit commanded by officers from Cardulan. The enlisted body of the División Azul would be made up mainly of volunteers from the CPF while the officers corps should be consisting of men who studied at your academies. They would serve four years in Novaya Equestria.

To Lord Argond XXIII,

We are glad that you are sending mechanized infantry and armored forces to Novaya Equestria. I forgot to mention that you need ships, helicopters, and aircraft to participate in the maneuver. The idea of the Blue Division (or Division Azul) serving with the Reichswehrmacht is a perfect idea. We will be awaiting your forces arrival. The maneuver will take place in the northern coast of Gryphonia. Good luck, gent!

Reichspraesident Borealis

P.S. I LOVE MARINES!!!

OOC: Borealis likes marines.

[Cardulan]

Splendid! We will send the Royal Marine Commandos to participate in this exercise. They are perhaps our most notorious special forces unit, they are diffidently our largest. We will send border guard units too, they are very good in combined arms maneuvers. I am glad that you like this idea, what do you think of a division strength of 20.000 men for the Blue Division?

To Lord Argond XXIII,

That division strength is perfect. I'd like to inform you that Novaya Equestria focus on heavily-equipped mechanized infantry, armored, amphibious, and aerial forces. Think of The Salvation War.

Reichspraesident Borealis

[Cardulan]

We have taken that into consideration and if you approve of the current layout the Division would be ready to join the exercise and stay in your country afterwards.

Very good!

The following units will be send to participate:

Naval and Aviation units of the Royal Border Guards

The Royal Marine Commandos of the Royal Navy

The airborne Volunteer Brigade of the Royal Air Force

Armoured and Mechanised units of the Royal Army.

All troops will be shipped in by the Royal Navy and the support ships and the naval aviation units will participate in the maneuver too.

Perfect. Those units are perfect for the exercise/maneuver. We will wait for them.

Because of the circumstances in Cardulan, following the war and the victory celebrations. Most units were at their full strength and ready to move. As the order was given to march to Novaya Equestria to participate in the largest military exercise Cardulan had ever undertaken with an other nation, everything went smoothly. The troops were set in motion and marched towards Novaya Equestria.

OOC: You do realize you could actually use your navy's ships and air force's aircraft to transport your forces to the exercise since Novaya Equestria (aka Greater Novayan Reich) controls much of the continent north of Poneria, right?

IC: Northern coast of Gryphonia

The Novayan military began waiting for the Cardulanians to arrive by sea, train, and air as the Novayan military units participating in the exercise began equipping their Future Soldier outfits (Felin and FIST for Mareveolans, Ratnik (and an unnamed PLA Future Soldier project) for Novaya Arstrotzkan, and Future Force Warrior and Infanterist der Zukunft for Novaya Equestrians). Reichspraesident Borealis sat and wait in his flagship, the Novayan Joint Mobile Offshore Base Atlas (based on USS Reagan Seabase from Tom Clancy's EndWar), for the Cardulanians to arrive.
