Tezdriani War (OOC thread)

Well, I guess Crifix's out. I'm going to give him a hand with his military. Gogo realism Nazi!

by **The Yukutskian SSR** » Thu Feb 24, 2011 7:30 pm

Well, I'm offically in with the invaders. Guess I'll need to make an ORBAT soon.

What possible link is there between you and either Lyras, Greater Tezdrian, or any other participant that would make you throw in with their invasion?

I know the question might sound a bit condescending, but I'm just curious. I'm starting to feel bad for GT. His allies are gradually backing out on him, and it's really becoming a bit of a clusterfuck. Although Nick did hint at jumping in on his side...

by **The Yukutskian SSR** » Thu Feb 24, 2011 8:16 pm

Ehh? I guess you could say as a political ordeal, or just me joining on for a slice of the pie? I really just wanted to for lolz... and for fun with this game.

Nick may be... otherwise occupied.

This went from excellent to overwhelmingly one sided in one day.

le sigh.

All it needs is New Haylesia and the clusterfuck will be complete.

Don't say that name, then we'll be completely doomed.

Derpeda, it was overwhelmingly one-sided ten seconds after Lyras posted. :lol:

That having been said, it would be brilliant if Nicks was involved heavily in this.

It is starting to look a bit like people just jumping at the opportunity to wage a war that they are practically certain to win. But then again when the RL US goes to war most NATO countries do the same so RP wise that might not be such a bad thing.

Still on standby.

by **Aquilinia** » Fri Feb 25, 2011 11:41 am

So, who is actually actively fighting/sending troops right now?

I have troops next to Lyras' fleet, but seeing that this is the latter's war, I think invading Tezdrian before he makes a decision is beyond idiotic. To be honest, the troops are just there for the rebuilding operation, for peacekeeping and economic aid.

Yeah, I'll be parking my fleet near GT, waiting for the clear. Anyway, we still need to decide on who attacks where, should we really attack.

... :-/

"Lyras attacks everywhere" would end the war. The only reason Anemonian troops are still hanging around has already been explained (partly).

by **Aquilinia** » Fri Feb 25, 2011 11:51 am

Yeah well, I am not there because of Lyras, but because of the Quendi. And I hope it will not be "Lyras steamrolls. /thread" - I hoped this would become a good RP.

by **Anemos Major** » Fri Feb 25, 2011 11:52 am

... really? After seeing the initial deployment numbers?

by **Aquilinia** » Fri Feb 25, 2011 11:53 am

Well...overwhelming force does not mean it can't be a good RP, eh?

by **Lyras** » Fri Feb 25, 2011 11:58 am

I certainly am running on the assumption that overwhelming force and good RP are not mutually exclusive.

Not that there is yet any guarantee of actually coming to blows, per se. The ball of peace with justice still remains in Tezdrian's court.

by **Anemos Major** » Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:01 pm

I asked him about peace a couple of times, and he says he'll mediate, but won't surrender...

(that is to say, mediated negotiation)

by **Aquilinia** » Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:01 pm

Well, I guess we'll just have to wait for GT to reply. Though in his position, with all those huge armies amassing to roll him over...surrender does sound like a reasonable offer, or at least it would for me.

by **Anemos Major** » Fri Feb 25, 2011 12:03 pm

Well, as long as we get to hang his existing government. I don't like slavers.

by **Wagdog** » Fri Feb 25, 2011 1:22 pm

Figured I'd post these up here for reference, before my next post deploying en route to Lyran and/or Lamonian territory (most ground/air) and the Tezdrian theater of operations (naval/amphbious) to make final linkups before any landings. Naturally this will be crosslinked there so what deployments are discussed can be referenced, without hogging posting space that could be used for IC stuff instead. :blush:

Order of Battle: Area Force Tezdrian, Revolutionary Commonwealth of Wagdog JCS Operational Directorate

I landed troop's. Tezdrian hasn't responded yet.

He may have decided to escape the RP by fleeing to a small Pacific island IRL.

by **Maltropia** » Fri Feb 25, 2011 3:03 pm

And I have a few hundred warships that I can't be bothered to write an OrBat for nearing GT. My hope is that Lyras will get him to stop slaving so I can turn around and go home.
