"Operation Flashpoint is go!" came a voice over the loudspeaker. That was immediately met by cheers from the soldiers, they could fight the Joyean menace. all that remained was a small wait. Twenty minutes later, the lights turned green and the cargo door opened. Across the planes, 5000 soldiers jumped out over Tobruk. Their drop was undetected thanks to the lack of AA equipment, the cover of night, and a diversion involving a few trucks being blown up. Thus it came as shock to the Joyeans when they found themselves in front of the 1000 soldiers who landed in the Port
OOC: Drop Zones are 250-oil storage, 250 Power-plant, 250-Pumping station, 1250-City hall, 1000-Port, 2000 Near the Joyean encampment.
The sirens sounded and troops both Joyean and Libyan rushed to what little AA defenses were left. Crews rushed to their Hellcat 3000 fighters and B-52 bombers and almost every aircraft was in the sky after about 20 minutes. Some of the Lacienian forces were confused because many of the Joyeans were in full NBC protective equipment because some of the bombs being dropped from the B-52s contained Soman gas. After a short time the effects began to kill off some of the enemy troops. The bombers were already loaded with Soman filled bombs because they were going to bomb Tripoli which did give the Joyeans an advantage despite the fact that the Joyean troops are taking heavy casualties. A Joyean Arsenal Ship began firing missiles into the city and was taking out both Lacienian and Joyean troops alike. The Joyean Military has decided to drop 900 Republican Guard Forces into the city to help the Joyean troops they are due to arrive at about 9 PM tonight. The Joyean forces never expected an attack on this scale and are having difficulty retaking the city.
