Strait of Troubles: The Years in Ghaisab [MT/OOC/OPEN]

[Kharilia]

Okay time for a small humanitarian operation. TECHNICALLY they aren't military, so TECHNICALLY I'm not over the limit of boots on the ground XD But I will change it if you want (probably less security)

Task Force Valkyrie

Humanitarian and Aid Corps
5x Nightingale-class ekranoplan transports

20x Modular Support Vehicle (MSV) flatbed and cargo trucks

10,000 aid support workers (unarmed)

10,000 doctors

10,000 soldiers of the 3rd base Defense Regiment acting as security for the base, and the convoys.

Extremely fun little thread. I'd love to sail a couple frigates past to keep tabs on the situation, but given how deep inland the fighting seems to be I'm not sure there would be much for me to do besides issue a stern letter. My nation doesn't have much capacity for even a modest humanitarian mission or, heaven forbid, an actual ground intervention even approaching the troop cap.

Edit: I clearly badly misread the thread. I would love to do a sail-past of both factions' territory, particularly in order to protect commercial shipping interests. Would such a story have legs?

I'm still considering, the type of support of Mervay beyond humanitarian aid, mostly in the timeframe sense; 2018 was an busy year for the military between an coup and subsequent intervention in favour of the legitimate government in an ally state, and the situation in Apotos and Yuktobania, which means that any possible support would come by mid-2019 at the earliest.

[Seleucid Pergamon]

-snip-

This is good enough, actually. You can send in more support overtime if need be.

-snip-

Sure thing! What would this maritime force be comprised of?

-snip-

Wow, that is a tall order, haha.

I'll have the United Government finance their support, given what the Venide Corporation is offering.

And no pressure on how much more Mervay's going to offer. I'm good with whenever.

Also, looking forward to the journalist team on the ground. A lot of good stories on the ground, for sure...

Will see what I can bring from them then, and sorry if I continiously edit the presented proposal, but forgot to add an additional journalist and I kind of need to make an small app for her if only as for it to act as some ID, just wanted to get most of the planned proposal out of the way so I could begin preparing an post.

[The Selkie]

So... I would also like to formalize who and what I am operating with.

For starters, Mangaire. Problem is, this is 2015 - Caja and Kiana joined the company in 2018. So, I need to set up an alternative, which should not be a problem.
What can they offer? In 2013, the RKA sold their surplusses of AA-40s and AA-42s and struck a deal regarding old Midrabs. Then there are the old supplies of when the Lutetiian Armed Forces were disbanded.
Plus, if the customer asks nicely, Mangaire might be able to procure a few special somethings or other hopefully interesting things.

Who do they offer it to? Well... whoever's going to buy. Mangaire is not interested in the resolution of the conflict. They are interested in the money. If both sides buy, then both sides buy and Mangaire will happily take it. If it takes longer for the conflict to end thanks to that, then, well, that is a local issue, not theirs.
Both sides can, of course, also buy at the same time. We'll talk numbers when and if we get going.

Mercs... I decided against offering mercs. I am going to use them, though. The Alsaqaar Mercenary Company will provide escorts for the freighter/s, how much depends on the threat level.
Bonargrid, also depending on the threat level, might provide harbour security, strength depending on the threat level.
What do you think?

EDIT: Reposted on the OOC because I did an oopsie... ''^^

[The Green Union]

Sure thing! What would this maritime force be comprised of?

Either two small frigates, or two long range patrol boats. I would very much prefer a crisis breaks out while GU ships happen to be in the area type playstyle as opposed to something concerted sent from the homeland. My country doesn't have the capacity for a large scale intervention.

[Seleucid Pergamon]

Whatever you want to do, and I am fine with your end offering arms, escorts, and potential harbor security in lieu of mercs. At least for the start.

For the alternative company, though, looking forward to the details.

I'm good with two boats being held up by some parties, maybe Al-Duru. Who knows?

Awesome. Though... what alternative company?

Ah, sorry, misunderstanding. That was more about a different agent of Mangaire, since Caja and Kiana are not yet part of the company.
