Tezdriani War (OOC thread)

[Dark Waters Inc]

Issue I believe we are having is that if Lyras okays it, I have no issue with people boarding as long as they have cause. But DWI ships are not military cargo vessels and if the agreement I posted earlier is agreed upon, then they won';t be involved in the transportation of slaves to GT either, so unless you have cause, it would be unlawful.

I think in war, any cargo vessel headed to an enemy nation can be boarded and checked for anything that might aid the enemy. Of course, if nothing is found, we'd have to allow you to continue your journey.

Oh, I understand. I'm just saying it'd be unlawful, not that you can't do it.

In my opinion, though, it's better safe than sorry. Who knows that that civilian cargo vessel there isn't smuggling weaponry disguised as something else? Although, hey, that'd be unlawful as well....also, in war, in my opinion, the law may sometimes be, let's say, interpreted differently.

Something Maltropia is very good at.

I'm not trying to instigate conflict in any way, but if your ships are found to be doing something hostile, I'll retaliate. I won't be making up excuses though.

[Lamoni]

My contribution to this effort stands at:

2,000x COT.41 Sleipner Multi-Role
1,000x CFB-8A Hermes high speed bomber

Furthermore, I will be asking Wanderjar to handle my forces on this front, as i'll soon be heavily involved on another front.

Lamoni I understand fully, of course. The two are more inseparable than the Clinton family and politics.

ROFL! I didn't know that said reputation had made it that far. While Lyras and I are both IC and OOC friends, I would think that the Kennedy family was much more heavily into politics.

I have now made two posts where my fleet comes very very close to be within firing range of your capital Tezdrian. Is the reason that you aren't replying that you are busy or that there is no defenses so I can just start firing?

[Secantrine]

OOC: Is this war going to continue? I'm joining in if so.

A fair bit of both, actually. Busy with IASEN, but since our Air Force was wiped out in the Allean attack, you can pretty much start firing.

No navy either?

Not really, no.

[Aquilinia]

So it's safe to say nothing will stop my forces from landing, either?

There can't be much there, anyways, as his capitol was hit with a "55 gigaton*" nuclear device last year.

[Aquilinia]

I think he established a new capital after that incident. As any nation would.

[Allanea]

Greater Tezdrian:

You have not responded to my second attack on your capital's AA system. You have posted for other people and even started a new IASEN thread and posted in it. It's clearly not an issue of time.

Please either make an IC response, or at least inform me of the results so I can write another post for your thread based on that.

[Secantrine]

Okay put me in, I'm going on a vacuum here.

[Of the Quendi]

So it would appear. The city I am targeting is called Venko and the one that was hit by a 55 gigaton nuclear weapon (55? Thats more then even a Tsar Bomba, how can Greater Tezdrian even exist?) was called Estancia de Baxio, what a beautiful name by the way, so I guess it is two different cities.

Quendi;

Czar Bomba was 25 MEGAtons.

If he was hit by a 55 gigaton nuclear weapon, his nation wouldn't exist, and half the NS world would have been destroyed by the explosion alone.

[United States of PA]

Just a lil fyi, Tsar Bomba was 50 Megatons. 55 Gigatons is 55,000 megatons. Thats enough to split the earth in half.

I confused mega with giga. So a nuclear bomb a thousand times the size of of the Tsar Bomba was detonated on the surface? Sound like all non Earth based nations should RP being a wasteland then.

[United States of PA]

No, its probably enough to split the RL planet in half with a surface burst.

[Anemos Major]

The RL planet. Not the NS planet.

Notice i did say RL Planet.

[Anemos Major]

Notice i did say RL Planet.

You also used the word 'no'.

Believe or not, that generally leads into a contradiction or rebuttal.

[Of the Quendi]

I realize that 55 gigatons is a very powerful explosion and I don't question for a second that even the most resilient life forms on the RL earth would seize to exist if such a bomb ever went of. But split the planet in half?

he used a comma...
