Western Entente - Najaf Compact War [Signup in OOC] [IC][V2]

[Aumbura]

Tanks and soldiers roll into Alexandria. Hundreds of missiles are launched from ships and from vehicles. A second wave is made, this time armed with tanks, and artillery pieces, and adequately supported. Troops attempt encirclements where possible. Suppressive fire is constant as Olpenese soldiers rush advantageous positions in the city. More airstrikes are launched, targeting clusters of troops.
Troops begin landing in Mersa Mutrah and moving to Alexandria, and while this will take time, it could be very advantageous. They stay along the coast, with aircraft carriers following them to give them air support and defense. Other troops push out in a circle, attempting to take the rest of the state. They are fully supported.
Troops defending the city are reinforced with artillery, tanks, and missiles. they are instructed to hold their ground no matter what the cost.

The Olpenese, who for some reason decided to invade Alexandria whilst they were under attack, were repulsed and the Muqaddasis started to push, firing missiles and drones, shelling, mining areas outside Alexandria and bombing the Olpenese.

The Muqaddasis pushing in Mersa make great progress due to less troops being sent to fight them, even if they fought to the death, and they start pushing to get into the centre of the city.

The Muqaddasis unleashed a barrage of hundreds of missiles on the aircraft carriers, hypersonic and anti-ship. Planes and drones bombarded them and the enemy positions.

SIC: A few submarines were sent to strike the aircraft carriers and try to sink them.

The aforementioned warships pass through Egyptian waters, broadcasting an evacuation notice to any possible civillians in their vicinity, before firing upon northern Muqdassia, making sure to only lay waste to uninhabited areas and enemy encampments. From the accompanying aircraft carriers, 30 bomber planes are deployed, and they fly into Muqadassian territory. They bomb northern Muqadassia continuously before continuing to move inland. The full force of 30 warships, each equipped with ballistic missiles, and 30 bomber planes, now rain upon non-civilian areas in northern Muqadassia. 30 more warships are immediately called for. 30 additional bomber planes, and 100 fighter planes are also called for. The forces depart Aumburan waters at this time.

OOC: Egypt is western Muqaddasia… so where are you firing?


Muqaddasia, in response to Frisemark, establishes humanitarian corridors.

OOC: Firing from the Mediterranean sea into northern and western Muqadassia. I was unaware of Egypt's status.

The Muqaddasis reacted quickly, firing SAM missiles at the enemy and sending aircraft to intercept them. Muqaddasia unleashed a volley of anti-ship missiles and hypersonic missiles at the aircraft carriers, and sent their own warships to counter the enemy. UUVs were used and so were drones and supercavitating torpedoes. Muqaddasi aircraft moved in to attack the warships with cruise and hypersonic warships.
Muqaddasia called the Aumburan government “excuses for leaders” and ordered them to stop the attack.

The additional warships and aircraft arrive, and begin engaging the Muqadassian forces. Half of the fleet fires upon Muqadassia's response team, whilst the other half continues to fire into Egypt and Syria, aiming primarily for their coastlines. Both fire ballistic missiles. Meanwhile, the aforementioned 30 deployed bomber planes continue to move inward, nearing southern Syria. They continue bombing any military encampments they come accross.

In addition, 50,000 more ground troops move out of Aumbura.

The backup fighter planes and bomber planes work on taking off from their aircraft carriers, with Muqadassian forces causing a disturbance to some craft. Nonetheless, 20 more bomber planes and 40 fighter planes take off and begin firing upon Muqadassian forces. In terms of damage, 3 warships are damaged, with one rendered incapacitated. The others continue to fire on however, undettered by Muqadassia's telegram, and army.

[Zarnicovia nova]

South Nova Morning Post

General Secrectary of AZNUP annouces intervention in Muqadassia in press conferance! Stating that the war was of great importance to the Zarnicovian Novan and Lismian states and their allies in South Olpen. The party has annouced that they will send over 65,000 troops and an Air Force group to aid the South Olpen war effort. Also approving the selling of Zarnicovian Novan arms to all members of the Western Entente but Armenia.

---

The first troops of the Zarnicovian Novan intervention would land in makeshift Olpen air strips only 6 hours later. Organizing and gaining further reenforcements before beginning to move to the frontline. For now they'd go without most heavy equipment which would need naval transport.

[Janpia]

With everything set, a group of 5 Hisshin takes off from Pandora, enrouted to perform SEAD mission at the red sea coast, while another 10 was sent to aid the Armenians who are fighting at the Mediterranean. Using radar cover as an advantage thanks to its IR reducing design, the Hisshins flies above, targetting drones UUVs and surface warships with adequate weapons. Meanwhile at the Red Sea coast, the hisshin jets also used a Kinzhal missile, which is capable to destroy even the most concrete buried bunkers. They also set long range cruise missiles against any surface vessels found by its AESA radar. Of course, all of these and its information is connected with the ship's Revolutsiya CMS, which can coordinate their attacks in a real-time manner and interdict or attack with the help of AI program that can automatically interdict unsupervised tags.

Muqaddasia sent stealth interceptors and fast interceptors to engage the Hisshin jets. SAMs in range fired at them with missiles. However, in the Red Sea they were late and damage was done by the time the 5 X-31s and the 10 Al-Quds planes arrived. However, in the Med, the same number arrived on time and fired at the Janpians, then used flares and chaff, giving aircraft on the AC time to take off and join the fight. Most of the drones and UUVs, however, were destroyed, and several ships were damaged, one severely.

In the Red Sea, many ships were damaged and some small ones destroyed. The Muqaddasis retaliated with hypersonics and supercavitating torpedoes, as well as UUVs.

With the Red Sea clear from enemy surface ships, 1x Revolution-Class Aircraft carrier and its battlegroup was sent to the Red Sea, all while utilizing AWACS and patrol sorties. A single Avescho-Class Battlecruiser is also sent, utilizing its AGS gun and 244x VLS cells in to the area. Though with the help of AWACS from the carrier, the fleet range and detection is extended all the way to Riyadh, which gives the first sorties of Hisshin jets from Pandora some new information of incoming Muqaddasian stealth jets. Of course, seeing how they are also targetted and attacked by S-300s, they noted and marked the location of the launch, providing the said information to the fleet's Revolutsiya CMS. Which in turn, the warships from either the 3x Katyachas or the carrier battlegroup targeted and attacked the detected S-300s with surgical long range guided missiles. Though the S-300 attacks marks that the SEAD mission is succesful, given that the jets on the Red Sea was able to lure enemy air defenses, giving their position away for the ships to attack.

Dealing with the Muqaddasian jets, the Hisshins fired a long range fire and forget heat seeking missile towards the enemy jets direction, hoping that the missile guidance system was able to acquire the Muqaddasian jets along the way. As the first batch finishes SEAD missions and unleashing their payload, they returned back, flashing their escape with chaff and dummy IFF targetting to fool enemy radars. Seeing and noting where the enemy aircraft came from as based on AWACS, the other carrier at the Gulf of Aden began to launch sortie missions, this time, targetting Muqaddasian radars, oil depots, and defense systems, using AGM-64s, Kinzhals, and a few air-to-air missile. They plan to surgically hit every strategic targets on the southwest of Muqaddasia, with the assist of the 2nd sortie mission from Pandora.

Meanwhile, the new carrier group also set surveillance drones towards Yanbu, Jeddah, Mecca, and route 55, marking enemy installations or defenses, which was then attacked from the carrier battlegroup. A few LSDs also began taking safe positions towards the coast, and prepared landing teams and helicopters, all while under the defense of the nearby warships and passive sonar nets.

At the Mediterranean, the jets often goes on to hit and run tactics, simply by hitting targetting and attacking detected targets, before making a run back towards the Pandora Island.

[Mets Hayk]

The 5th weren't ones to give up easily...besides, Twas they who broke through Zarnicovian lines at Boa all those months ago. And Twas they who were determined to break through this godforsaken stalemate. And so, they improvised...even if it meant resorting to impractical means. Enter the creeping barrage and let fall dozens of shells...always just ahead of the advancing Armenians. Hopefully, this would, at long last, give the Armenians a bit of room to maneuver. Twas an outdated tactic, and it took time, but it'd all be worth it. God was with them, after all...even if most of Liga's First Regiment had already fallen.

---

In the Mediterranean, things were more or less the same...

The Armenians - as was usual - continued their attack on the Muqaddasi fleet and its corresponding aircraft, all the while slowly creeping along. Indeed, the vast sea had become a 'bathtub of death'...as it was all those years ago. Nevertheless, the Armenians continuously fired at their foes, whether it be their ships or their aircraft...hoping - waiting - for that big breakthrough.

The Muqaddasis retaliated by firing missiles and drones so that the 5th couldn’t just dodge them. The remnants of the Liga was ordered to surrender, and the Muqaddasis there pushed, (SIC: hoping to seize the cross).

The Muqaddasis pushed at the advancing 5th with tanks, aircraft and helicopters with DIRCMs, hoping to crush them.


In the Mediterranean, things were bloody, but the numbers were still in Muqaddasia’s favour. Ships were damaged, and another corvette almost sank, but they were still persevering. They decided to do a great barrage of missiles, drones, torpedoes, cannons, and the rest of the UUVs to overwhelm the Armenians. Then the reinforcements came from Latakia. Submarines, corvettes, frigates and two destroyers. The fresh troops opened fire, trying to destroy the enemy.




In Alevilvian occupied land, the insurgents started shooting troops and throwing bombs. The Muqaddasis fired suicide drones to destroy enemy targets and aid the insurgency.

Alas, thus begun another round of the back-and forth bullshit...so, once again, the Armenians had to improvise...

Seeing the devastating effect of their initial bombardments, the decision was made to combine a creeping barrage with a constant wave of missiles, most of which would be fired from the Chinese-made WM-80 multiple rocket launchers; hoping to soften up Muqaddasi positions while actually allowing some sort of a push. Indeed, Twas quite an interesting plan...one that combined the best of a by-gone age, and the modern-era. The 5th, of course, slowly advanced...this time with much heavy armour, hoping to push the Muqaddasi forces back. But what sort of an advance would be complete without anti-air positions constantly firing at enemy air units?

Little did their enemy know, most of the remnants of Liga's 1st Regiment had successfully retreated back to the 5th, helping to boost morale and playing an, albeit minor, role in the fighting. Their job was to ensure the cross was reclaimed, no matter the cost...and to help get the wounded away from the front.

Casualties were high, but there was still some sort of a steady advance...

---

The Armenians' ships returned with a similar barrage...again - hoping to put a dent in the enemy's forces. The launch of Orlan-10s was authorized, helping to properly range the enemy ships' distance...and, hopefully, making their assault a (little bit) more accurate.

The countermeasure systems gave whatever they had - as was typical...but Twas only a matter of time before they gave up.

By then, air defences had arrived and helped to effectively blunt the attack. Muqaddasia’s continued using their missile and drone strategy, figuring that if they continued bombarding them, they would be destroyed. Missiles were fired at anti-air systems to destroy them and stealth aircraft were used to slip by enemy defences and bombard the Armenians mercilessly. The part of the army sent to crush the Liga was now used to attack the enemy in the flank, and the anti-tank weapons the other half of the army had was now put to good use, striking the Armenian heavy armour. The cross was sent to New Najaf City as soon as it was captured, with an armed escort.



The cycle began again. A few missiles managed to get through Muqaddasi defences, and the Muqaddasis responded with another furious barrage, knowing that it was only a matter of time before the Armenian navy collapsed.

[Biladu Al Rafidayn]

At the Mediterranean, the jets often goes on to hit and run tactics, simply by hitting targetting and attacking detected targets, before making a run back towards the Pandora Island.

The Muqaddasi Red Sea Fleet attempted to overwhelm the enemy aircraft carrier with hundreds upon hundreds of missiles, both hypersonic and cruise. Sonar nets were made. The S-300s that engaged the Janpians were destroyed.

The Muqaddasi aircraft managed to escape enemy missiles and tried to instead engage the aircraft doing sortie missions whenever they were detected.

The enemy drones were attacked by aircraft, by jammers, and, if they came close enough, by the Muqaddasi Leonidas copy.

Troops, tanks and other equipment were moved to Muqaddasi Arabia, ready to defend if necessary.

In the Mediterranean, Muqaddasi aircraft simply patrolled, engaging the Hisshin jets with long range missiles anytime they came.

The Muqaddasis pushing in Mersa continued pushing, fighting to the death as well, resulting in a vicious slaughter of Muqaddasis and Olpenese.

The Muqaddasis unleashed a barrage of hundreds of missiles on the aircraft carriers, hypersonic and anti-ship. Planes and drones bombarded them and the enemy positions.

SIC: A few submarines were sent to strike the aircraft carriers and try to sink them.

The aforementioned warships pass through Egyptian waters, broadcasting an evacuation notice to any possible civillians in their vicinity, before firing upon northern Muqdassia, making sure to only lay waste to uninhabited areas and enemy encampments. From the accompanying aircraft carriers, 30 bomber planes are deployed, and they fly into Muqadassian territory. They bomb northern Muqadassia continuously before continuing to move inland. The full force of 30 warships, each equipped with ballistic missiles, and 30 bomber planes, now rain upon non-civilian areas in northern Muqadassia. 30 more warships are immediately called for. 30 additional bomber planes, and 100 fighter planes are also called for. The forces depart Aumburan waters at this time.

OOC: Egypt is western Muqaddasia… so where are you firing.


Muqaddasia, in response to Frisemark, establishes humanitarian corridors.

In Mursa, the Olpenese are reinforced ith another 15,000 marines. The meat grinder grinds on, and the front is held. Olpenese forces continue pushing, using artillery and airstrikes to their advantage. Drone swarms attack logistics hotspots, trying to starve out the Muqqadasians and force a tactical retreat.
In Beirut, a wave of marines land and push, aided by cruisers and aircraft. They move quickly and in tune with the missiles and airstrikes, trying to rush the city while the enemy is disoriented.

OOC: And...how'd you get the cross, exactly?

IC:
Alas, the time had come...once again

The Armenians, slowly pulling back, unveiled their greatest weapon yet: white phosphorus. Rage incarnate. Dozens of missiles, shells, and other explosives: all fired in quick succession. There was no room for remorse...nor hesitation. If a creeping barrage wouldn't force them from their positions, the infamous pyrophoric weapon would. To top it off, they used the last of the thermobaric missiles they'd had - in a similar manner as before. Enemy armour was targeted by regular artillery...as had become normal by now, while the remaining 2K12 Kubs focused on whatever aircraft they could bring down.

---

Then came one last stand of defiance...

One last barrage from the Mediterranean fleet, and one last push. Whatever they had left was put to use. Morale wasn't completely gone, however...all they had to do was wait for the Janpians to do as they did best, and there were rumours of reinforcements coming from the Black Sea Fleet. All they had to do was wait, for God knows how long...

Muqaddasia, in response to Frisemark, establishes humanitarian corridors.

In Mursa, the Olpenese are reinforced ith another 15,000 marines. The meat grinder grinds on, and the front is held. Olpenese forces continue pushing, using artillery and airstrikes to their advantage. Drone swarms attack logistics hotspots, trying to starve out the Muqqadasians and force a tactical retreat.
In Beirut, a wave of marines land and push, aided by cruisers and aircraft. They move quickly and in tune with the missiles and airstrikes, trying to rush the city while the enemy is disoriented.

The slaughterhouse known as Mersa was supplied with Muqaddasi reinforcements. Artillery and missiles were fired back at the Olpenese, and Muqaddasi aircraft engaged Olpenese planes and did their own airstrikes, continuing the bloody stalemate. Drone swarms were repelled by the Muqaddasi Leonidas copy, and the Muqaddasis organised attacks on enemy logistics themselves.

In Beirut, the Muqaddasis were not ‘disoriented’ at all. In fact, they were used to it by now. They pushed back, trying to drive the Olpenese into the sea. Muqaddasi ships bombarded the Olpenese cruisers with missiles and torpedoes, and once again Muqaddasi aircraft engaged the Olpenese in the sky. For practically every missile that hit Beirut, the Muqaddasis fired a missile at the enemy. And drones harassed the Olpenese constantly.

[South Olpen]

The Mersa stalemate continued. Olpenese artillery units begin using incendiary weapons, and cruisers launch additional missiles. The fleet in the Levantine Sea is given submarines and a submarine catching task force to protect the ships.
In Beirut, the forces refuse to be pushed back, and are reinforced with 30,000 infantry. Artillery continues firing on enemy positions, as air fighters work to destroy the entirety of the enemy airforce.
Only 1 week in, almost 30,000 have been killed. Olpenese commanders call a 3 day truce to collect the dead and tend to the wounded

IC: The Muqaddasis, not expecting Armenia, of all nations, to violate international law, were pushed back. But they were not finished yet. They unleashed cluster bombs and incendiary weapons, hoping to fight fire with fire. Muqaddasi aircraft started a vigorous bombing campaign, aimed to turn everything the Armenians had to dust. Muqaddasi defensive positions were mined, and once again they went on the offensive, punishing the Armenians with hundreds of missiles. Cruise missiles were even fired at military positions on the border of Armenia and Muqaddasia. This was no time for mercy.


In the Mediterranean, the usual casualties. It was a bloody fight, but finally, victory was in the Muqaddasi’s sights. The heaviest attack in the whole naval battle was commenced. Heavy bombardment from the front and side pummelled the Armenian ships.

[Aumbura]

As Aumburan ships and planes continue to engage with Muqadassia near Egypt, the 30 bomber planes that went unanswered in Syria are called back to reload after doing multiple bombing raids. Aumburan General Stalsbauer is notified of Armenia's possible predicament, and he sends 30 fighter planes and 20 bombers to aid Armenian forces. Meanwhile, the 50,000 requested Aumburan troops continue to travel through Europe via aircraft.

[Biladu Al Rafidayn]

The Mersa stalemate continued. Olpenese artillery units begin using incendiary weapons, and cruisers launch additional missiles. The fleet in the Levantine Sea is given submarines and a submarine catching task force to protect the ships.
In Beirut, the forces refuse to be pushed back, and are reinforced with 30,000 infantry. Artillery continues firing on enemy positions, as air fighters work to destroy the entirety of the enemy airforce.
Only 1 week in, almost 30,000 have been killed. Olpenese commanders call a 3 day truce to collect the dead and tend to the wounded

Muqaddasi missiles, aircraft and drones are sent to destroy Olpenese radar and artillery. Submarines suddenly stop being used for piracy and instead, drones and UUVs are used, attacking enemy ships and trying to cause mayhem. In Beirut, the Muqaddasis push. Tens of thousands of people from around the Levant and Iraq gather and attack the Olpenese. Muqaddasi aircraft, which had been working on destroying the Olpenese Air Force much before the Olpenese started attacking Muqaddasi planes, continue to attack enemy aircraft at every opportunity. Stealth planes bombard enemy air strips to make it impossible, or very difficult, for them to continue fighting. Then… Muqaddasi officials accepted the ceasefire, and called on all countries in the war to do the same.

Aumbura agrees to the ceasefire, and it's warships temporarily make their way toward an allied port in Spain in order to refuel. The bomber and fighter planes sent to help Armenia do manage to a get in a few hits on Muqadassia, but they are ultimately forced to return home after hearing of the ceasefire. The 50,000 ordered Aumburan troops land briefly in Austria.

OOC: And...how'd you get the cross, exactly?

---

IC:
Alas, the time had come...once again

The Armenians, slowly pulling back, unveiled their greatest weapon yet: white phosphorus. Rage incarnate. Dozens of missiles, shells, and other explosives: all fired in quick succession. There was no room for remorse...nor hesitation. If a creeping barrage wouldn't force them from their positions, the infamous pyrophoric weapon would. To top it off, they used the last of the thermobaric missiles they'd had - in a similar manner as before. Enemy armour was targeted, by regular artillery...as had become normal by now, while the remaining 2K12 Kubs focused on whatever aircraft they could bring down.

---

Then came one last stand of defiance...

One last barrage from the Mediterranean fleet, and one last push. Whatever they had left was put to use. Morale wasn't completely gone, however...all they had to do was wait for the Janpians to do as they did best, and there were rumours of reinforcements coming from the Black Sea Fleet. All they had to do was wait, for God knows how long...

IC:
Twas Hell on Earth, quite literally

While the Muqaddasis more or less decimated the front of the convoy, the centre and the back remained relatively untouched...and so, they advanced onwards. Four of the Scuds, outdated by today's standards...and were initially planned to be used much later on, continued the white phosphorus-fueled barrage...their warheads, followed by more shells, falling upon the enemy. Designated crews, aided by the usual Liga member, helped to put out the fires caused by their enemy's unexpected barrage. Border-based units too resorted to similar tactics - albeit using non-incendiary munitions. Twas the "Mets bardzunk’" - the "Great barrage"...and it would continue until they made a breakthrough.

The Muqaddasi's ambitious 'bombing campaign' was met with heavy anti-aircraft fire...as was expected at this point, hoping that these counterattacks would put down their enemy's efforts.

---

The fleet was battered and bruised, but the Tehleryan survived. Ordering a semi-retreat, they slowly backed into Armenian territorial waters...hoping to lure their foe into the range of coastal defenses.

Aumburan General Stalsbauer is notified of Armenia's possible predicament, and he sends 30 fighter planes and 20 bombers to aid Armenian forces. Meanwhile, the 50,000 requested Aumburan troops continue to travel through Europe via aircraft.

70 Muqaddasi aircraft are sent to destroy Aumburan attackers. They hope that they can fend off the enemy long enough to secure victory against the Armenians. A CSG and many other ships are sent to attack the enemy warships, and they fired volleys of missiles, drones, UUVs, and torpedoes. Planes attempt to attack the enemy ships with hypersonic missiles, and stealth aircraft try to destroy the aircraft carrier. More ships from the Persian Gulf are requested to come via the wide Mediterranean—Persian Gulf canal.

OOC: THIS IS BEFORE AUMBURA AGREED TO THE CEASEFIRE

OOC: THIS IS BEFORE AUMBURA AGREED TO THE CEASEFIRE

As a few remaining Aumburan rescue ships broadcast the ceasefire agreement to Muqadassian forces, they notify them of the location of clusters of Muqadassian castaways, before moving to collect their own wounded.

Meanwhile, 80 Aumburan submarines leave port and make their way toward Spain, both to transport supplies and hope to protect the allied port in case of an attack.

The Muqaddasis switched to a new strategy. They m held their ground, then contacted the paramilitaries, who, from further east, launched an attack on the enemy flank, using hit and run attacks. Whilst they distracted the Armenians, the armoured half of the army slammed into the Armenian western flank with brutal attacks. Then the main force pushed in, then the paramilitaries. The three pronged attack also bombarded enemy air defences and radar with drones and missiles, then, if enough damage was dealt, the aircraft would swoop in and do their job. Helicopters and anti-tank equipment pounded the enemy armour.

The Muqaddasis moved forwards, and fired their longest range missiles, both from the sea and from the land. They didn’t need to chase them and destroy them at close range. They just needed to whittle them down.

[Aumbura]

Aumbura urges Armenia to agree to the ceasefire in order to salvage the lives of their remaining men.

Broadcasting to Armenian forces is Admiral Fellerhorn.

"Before the ceasefire, we provided air support and struck several forces belonging to Muqadassia, which should give you some cover to retreat or gather your wounded. We urge you now to agree to the ceasefire."

[Zarnicovia nova]

The first of Zarnicovia Nova's 3 division would be fully deployed to Muqadassia and begin moving to aid South Olpen forces. The first Zarnicovian Novan troops to begin fighting against Muqadassian forces would be at the statemate of Mersa. Where Zarnicovian Novan troops would build bunkers and trenches. Prepare machine guns, and artillery. A very large amount of artillery would be deployed as Zarnicovian Novan supply would begin focusing on heavy equipment over troops. Zarnicovian Novan Air Force would also begin deploying fighters to try and combat Muqadassian's Air Force.
