[United Avon]

I am unsure what we do next, I have a couple of thoughts.

1. Give up trying to reach the Consulate and hide.

2. Fight some soldiers and possibly take their uniform.

3. Find some way to sneak around the soldiers.

I like the idea of trying to sneak through the soldiers to the embassy. This is where I want to get an idea of what Mackjaracotavon envisioned when he posted.

Mackjaracotavon, the main question I have about your post is how that message to Princess Emily is supposed to get to her. She’s currently on the run in the midst of an enemy occupation.

I also wonder if you’re planning on contacting Avon about your plans, because otherwise there might be some tensions when the Avonian fleet shows up to find another fleet approaching the island. I’m happy to RP that tension, but I just want to make sure we’re on the same page.

OOC: for those curious
Aptrgangr are based on Mythical "witches"/undead for their name... their appearance is based on a fictional urban myth in Valkiir "Women in white" instead of "men in black". A mythical group of girls raised as assassins and spies by the country Valkiir broke away from and put to work by the secret police to intimidate, discredit, and/remove trouble makers. The became more related to Valkiirs overseas dirty tricks and not so covert actions against enemies after the break away with its parent country and became an urban myth about identical looking women engineered to be super soldiers... n overseas operations they want to indirectly claim such as removing terror leaders or destroying weapons stolen or obtained by less than legal means...They wear "white out" braids and such...most of them are female and as many as they can recruit are actually albino,. or very light skinned and undergo cosmetic operations to look very similar.

in not so violent uses, and as a separate group under the Special Projects Groups(basically CIA/KGB ), "Office of Scientific Investigation" they wear white clothes and not so secretly follow around people the Government wants to make sweat..or let know they're being watched...often groups of them are specially trained in disguise and quick change tricks so they can blend in or appear in a crowd very quickly.

I was thinking something along the lines of a network of carrier pidgeons to deliver the message, like how it was done on the Western Front of WWI. Also, yes, some tensions would escalate, but since the inquisition is on board with the rescue op, they can meet with the Avonian fleet to deescalate the situation somehow.

Is this a joke? How will the pigeons find her.

Carrier pigeons were literally TRAINED to recognize the people they were looking for. It's how they were such a successful means of communication from front lines to artillery etc in the first world war. You can read more about them here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_pigeon

That's not what it says, it says the pigeons returned to the station. Homing pigeons always return home, so they only work one way. Nice try.

That's a bit too fantastic for my tastes, and either way the status of the Princess at this moment would be unknown to just about everyone except Captain Rogers and Konstantin. What if there's an organized royalist government in exile for Caledonia based in Avon and you sent it to them instead?

I'm willing to work with that.

Edit: Original post edited as necessary, to include the exiled Royalist government in exile as a recipient of the letter, rather than directly to the princess.

[Organized States]

Hi all. I'm hoping I'm not too late to join and I'm looking to inject some new blood into the RP. The OS, being a major economic power, is beginning to feel as if its essential interests in the region (specifically shipping lanes and oil exploratory efforts) have been threatened and is becoming concerned about the expansionism of the Caledonians. While not initially engaging in overt efforts against them, the OS would back quiet intelligence and covert operations before eventually shifting to a more overt (and limited) strike on the Caledonians in order to ensure that they're checked.

That sounds fine: sounds sort of like what the United States did for Britain in the Falklands, and then more overt stuff as well.

I will try and have a post up soon responding to everyone.

Intrested. Can I join?

Intrested. Can I join?

Depends on what you had in mind.

Post is up. Valkiir, assume that the other officers agreed to your plan. What I want to do wrap up the portion where Konstantin and the princess get to the consulate, and the dogfight above Roseport (assuming that player replies anytime soon), then jump time a few days to the point where the Caledonians have taken full control of the island and my fleet has set sail.

Essentially-Prussia-Poland is extremely isolationist and on guard, considering it's sandwiched between 2 unfriendly nations(Germany and Russia). However, a small group of volunteer troops, maybe 25-50, manage to join up with your lot.

/tag.

[Mackjaracotavon]

I feel as though I got missed

[Rhyssua]

Hey everybody, I hope I'm not too late to sign up. My idea would center around two diesel-powered attack submarines dispatched by the Rhyssuan government to assist the Caledonians in their occupation. My government, while supporting the new Caledonian government (as a socialist nation, albeit a more democratic one), would want to conceal its involvement, hence limiting it to those two submarines. However, this means very limited contact between the submarines and the Rhyssuan government. Whenever they ran out of fuel, they'd go back to port in Caledonia to refuel, or use the island if it's possible to do it covertly. What do you think?

Not by intention, I was just unable to find time to post with finals. Now that the semester is over I hope to return to frequent posting.

Sure thing.

I hope to have a post up soon, detailing the launch of the Avonian fleet and responding to whoever I missed. Unfortunately we've lost Neureich in the intervening time, so I'm going to let the Princess Emily plot line lay fallow for now and focus on the larger military narratives of the resistance by Valkiir's troops and mine, and the retaking of the island.

Aight. I modified the original post I made in the IC by the way, to account for the changes that were discussed here in the OOC.

[Raven Corps]

Greetings...

I've been trying to read everything so far but, TL;DR.

All I need to know is who is playing the bad guy?

[United Avon]

Hey everyone, unfortunately my previous estimate of my available NS time was off the mark, and I regret to say that I won't have the time to see this RP through to conclusion.

[Valkiir]

Sorry for falling off the radar..I had to go in for some...surgery...nothig major just lost my place and completely derailed by pain and meds for the pain...Da gud stuff

[Guuj Xaat Kil]

Hello there! We have a lot of bombs, where do you need these bombs to be dropped? Or what are the sides, and as Raven corps said, who's the bad guy? Anyway we have bombs and we want to use them, to whom shall they be dropped on?
