A New Day (Solidarity Only)

[-Eisenland-]

LZ-29 becomes the first zeppelin hit by enemy fire. The hit tears straight through one of the air sacs, causing the whole craft to jolt violently. It turns away as it slowly sinks lower through the clouds..

LZ-29 becomes the first zeppelin hit by enemy fire. The hit tears straight through one of the air sacs, causing the whole craft to jolt violently. It turns away as it slowly sinks lower through the clouds..

After seeing the first shot hit, all 11 dreadnaughts fire off accurate and prescise shots at the sinking zepplen.

The demo crew now hidden behind the lines builds and underground snow hut and sets up multiple explosives under the snow.

OOC: What snow?

OOC: What snow?

Mountains tend to have snow.

OOC: What snow?

Mountains tend to have snow.

But this is in the lower part of the mountain. This isn't high in the Alps exactly, this is where it starts to go downwards.

[Togeria]

Pacific: The cruisers are mostly hit at belt line, due to the great distance between the two fleets. They begin steaming forward to make enemy fire more inaccurate, while counting on the good training of their gunnery crews to come through.

As ships stem forward, the ships do as well, firing, ships moving around the enemy ships to aim at the back of the ships.

ITALIAN FRONT: More planes come, as the groups lead as many planes onto them before groups of 4 come behind, aiming at the back of the planes.

Many of the planes break off and roll to turn around and face the new group while the other half of their squadron engages the others.
Anti-Air begins to fill the sky with flak as they fire upon the hostile planes.

[Ukraine-Moldavia]

UM pulls back its troops once more, keeping them in reserve.

[-Eisenland-]

Eisenland keeps 50,000 troops nearby the border as a precaution.

Pacific: The Eisenlander ships merely turn with them, presenting their sides to the Togerian ships and firing all batteries.

[-Eisenland-]

The Eisenlander fleet runs to the northwest, seeking to curve around and near the enemy.

[Badassistanian]

Under the cover of night, artillery, and sniper fire, troops begin to advance onto the flanks of the Eisenlander trenches. They are mainly armed with Lee-Enfeild rifles and Enfield side arms along with long and sharp bayonets. The advance is slow and cautious in order to hopefully sneak most of the way undetected however only time will tell if this proves succsesful. Troops remaining in the trenches keep there eyes aimed on the opposing side, ready to fire shots if things go sour.

The fleet decides to make its way back to the south part of the Netherlands but keeps its eyes out for the enemy fleet and her ships.

[-Eisenland-]

Searchlights spot the Badassistanians, and a repeat of Von Prietz's infamous operation seems to be about to begin. Hundreds of Eisenlander machine guns open fire at full firing speed, whistling bullets flying into the oncoming Badassistanians. A devastating artillery barrage is opened up with all available artillery pieces on their artillery batteries, seeking to completely suppress their fire. The Boers, now with clear shots, fire at any Badassistanian troops who cross their rifle's sights.

A preceding cruiser spots the enemy ships, and Admiral von Rachau makes a decisive decision - she orders the entire fleet to change direction again, cutting across the path of the oncoming Badassistanians. This movement is known as crossing the T - all the Eisenlander batterries will be able to fire directly into the oncoming Badassistanians, while only the first ship's guns will be able to fire.

[Badassistanian]

A scout cruiser, the same one that survived the battle earlier, spots this manuvere and orders the fleet to make a quick and evasive turn in order to avoid hitting the fleet straight on, as soon as the turn is made the fleet waits to see what there opponent does.

The troops hit the deck and hide in whatever they can including temporary defensive positions such as Fox holes. They immediately fire upon the trench but aim is put off by the barrage, snipers in the trenches do the same but with much more precision. Both fear and courage can be seen in the eyes of the troops in no mans land as they continue the offensive.

[-Eisenland-]

Machine gun bullets and artillery shells rip into the Badassistanian troops fighting in no mans land. The Boer snipers quickly retaliate from their posts, aiming for Badassistanian snipers with accuracy, armed with the latest Gewehr 98 models.

As the Badassistanian ships are now turning away, the Eisenlanders moving into a curve, pursuing them.

[Togeria]

Eisenland keeps 50,000 troops nearby the border as a precaution.

Pacific: The Eisenlander ships merely turn with them, presenting their sides to the Togerian ships and firing all batteries.

The two cruisers do the same as well, firing to the best of their ability, moving to avoid getting hit when possible, and to close in on the enemy cruisers, firing ever closer on their sides, but taking damage on the side as well.

ITALIAN FRONT: Planes take this chance to fire on the enemy engine as it turns, pairs moving behind the now smaller squadrons, firing on their rear.

[-Eisenland-]

Pacific: The Eisenlander cruisers aim below the armor belts of the Togerian cruisers, using their steel/nickel alloy armor piercing shells. They take damage, but nothing serious.

As the Badassistanian ships are now turning away, the Eisenlanders moving into a curve, pursuing them.

The ships make another turn which puts the pursuing fleet into a situation similar to that of the crossing the t, leading them straight into an onslught of heavy fire.

Men are ordered to turn back and return to the trenches in retreat in order to conserve losses, the short offensive was a failure and the deaths from it have yet to be tallied.

[Togeria]

Pacific: The Eisenlander cruisers aim below the armor belts of the Togerian cruisers, using their steel/nickel alloy armor piercing shells. They take damage, but nothing serious.

Cruisers are hit hard, but don't submit yet, firing their own barrages onto guns and engine of the the ships, focusing in with their own armor piercing ships.

The Eisenlander cruisers don't back down - the turrets and engine rooms are the most heavily armored sections of the ship, the engine room encased deep within the belt armor. They continue their barrage against the Togerians, firing with accuracy.

Admiral von Rachau orders a Gefechtskehrtwendung, a full battle-turn. The ships turn at almost a 180 - the torpedo boats launch a curtain of torpedoes towards the Badassistanian ships to cover the full turn.

The Eisenlanders send their wounded inland to the hospitals, the vast majority caused by the artillery barrages prior to the attack, although the deeply protective trenches helped save many troops.

The two cruisers refuse the backdown, deciding to try and sandwich the cruisers, Kakimono moves its best around to the otherside, firing on the full and below at it moves, Yamaguchi firing below the belt as to try and sink one.

The Eisenlander cruisers are heavily armored, using the latest in Krupp steel. The two cruisers cut across the path of the cruisers as Kakimono attempts to flank around the side, pushing their engines to the limit to outspeed them and enable the movement. Their batteries now all face the front of the Togerian cruisers.

The torpedoes hit the thick armor of the ships but many miss as the barrage continues, aiming at the vitals of the ships.

The ships, now retreating in a single-file line, take little damage, as the vitals are impossible to hit.
