Tagmatium Rules Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Just thought about making an OOC thread, so we can sort out the aims of our different nations. I assume Rennd's fighting for control of the island and the resources there. Deltannia's fighting to stop Rennd's grasping, as are the Mongol-Swedes. There is a Tagmatine force to shore up the Renndian forces and enable them to retain control of the island. The Aristocracy forces are being deployed to test their armaments and back up the Deltannian units. That's all well and good, but I can see some problems arising. Aristo's deployment maybe one, as Delt didn't give permission yet, as well as the attack on the airfield didn't give Rennd much of a chance to fight back against the attack. But, we're here to discuss! Link to comment
Social Democratic Confederation Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 (edited) I had Pmed Delt about my involvment and he agreed, just not on the thread. I had though that he had posted while I was typing my little story (he was viewing the thread at the time). As for the attack; I have edited the post and will wait until this is better sorted out...

Rennd Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Rennd is trying to destroy the oil refineries, because they believe that the heavy industry is disrupting the island's natural habitat. Link to comment

Beginners Area: http://s7.invisionfree.com/Europa/index.php?showforum=90 You can safely RP there and recive comments from others on how to improve your RP. Reading some threads in the OOC area can also teach you how role-plays are directed behind the scenes. This thread for example shows you how everyone can contribute to the storyline: http://z7.invisionfree.com/Europa/index.php?showtopic=2532 Link to comment
Tagmatium Rules Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 I didn't mean to inconvenience you at all. There's nothing wrong with having a landing like that, indeed it would be quite interesting to attempt to counter it with my forces, as they're rapidly becoming kind of squeezed by Renndian collapse and Deltannian tenacity.

Social Democratic Confederation Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 I wonder if it's too soon to have naval units in the area? I have a new ship Id' like to try out. Link to comment
Tagmatium Rules Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 (edited) Uh, Deltannia has naval superiority - Rennd got beaten and has retreated. Mind you, firing on Tagmatine soldiers may have far reaching consquences - although I don't see why it can't happen. On a side note, has anyone seen Kant? PS: @Aristo: You may want to check out this sub-forum before declaring war on Rennd... Edited July 19, 2006 by Tagmatium Rules (see edit history) Link to comment
Social Democratic Confederation Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 What declaration of war? I didn't declare war... Link to comment
Tagmatium Rules Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 Owkey... Rennd and/or Delt, does the refinery still have oil or gas in it, or have the Tagmatine force's tactics been completely ruined by bad intelligence? Link to comment
Akiiryu Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 The Aristocratic Confederation, consider this a friendly mod warning (ie not put on your card). You can't simply delete a whole post/change your actions like that. Yes, I know we questioned your acts, but those questions were related to realism (your undetected attack verged on god moding/your reason for joining the fray were, well, a little weak) and whether you had asked other players if you could join in/attack. Once you've launched an attack/declared war you can't simply deleted the post because you decided it was a bad idea. That is poor rping and, frankly, unfair. It may result, if you keep doing it, in other rpers refusing to rp with you. Link to comment
Social Democratic Confederation Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Verywell, warning has been taken, nie wieder Herr Moderator! Link to comment
Social Democratic Confederation Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 BTW, have I arrived at (or near) Tarragat yet? I launched my ships, two days ago (I think)... 'nuff time go by yet? Link to comment
Tagmatium Rules Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share Posted July 20, 2006 Yeah, sure. I also realised last night it was a bit of a stupid move to send the attack across, although I'm going to have to live with it OOC and IC. I really ought to think things through more... Link to comment
Rennd Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 (edited) In regards, to your question on whether or not the refinery is full with oil and coal or not, the answer is yes. Thats what makes it such a dangerous game.... one shot on a fuel tank or something and the whole island will be blown out of europa. Edited July 20, 2006 by Rennd (see edit history) Link to comment
Tagmatium Rules Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share Posted July 20, 2006 (edited) Uhh, that is almost a complete annihaltion of my forces, especially napalm gutting my advancing soldiers and jets blowing my tanks to buggery... I'll have to have a bit of a think before typing up a reply. On the flip side, does anyone have a link to information about the "Arsenal" ship? Adaptus has mentioned them before, and I'm interested in what they can do. EDIT: Plus, when I refer to a battalion, it's 700 men, split into 10 companies of 70 guardsmen. Each is then subdivided into two sections, one commanded by an ensign, another by a lieutenant. The company itself is under the command of a captain. The senior officers are two majors and a lieutenant colonel, who is the commander of the battalion. It's based on Napoleonic War-era British battalions. No idea why, but I blame the Sharpe books.

Suverina Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 (edited) Bah! That's just some xpensive show off thing! I've got some real ships: Meet Admiral Petrovic, build in 1920 and maybe the oldest ship still in military service? Edited July 20, 2006 by Suverina (see edit history) Link to comment
Tagmatium Rules Posted July 20, 2006 Author Share Posted July 20, 2006 Christ, my lot are in for a hell of a pounding... They may be forced to withdraw soonish, especially after being so rudely treated by the Aristo airforce. Link to comment
Fleet Admiral Connor Grey Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Uh, Deltannia has naval superiority - Rennd got beaten and has retreated. That's right! Yeah, I've been a little busy as of lately, The Aristocratic Confederation came up to me with a PM, and I told him to put it in the RP, but I never got around to responding because of this project. I'll be online tonight to get back into it. Tagmatium, pretty much you listed the reasons we are in this. I am assuming the refineries (different ones, but the one I'm in now, let's call an oil one) are still functional, but since evacuated (the one I'm in), there is no work going on, obviously. Sorry that I've been busy, I'm actually typing this up during my lunch break. I'll have a reply late tonight, and I'll make sure it's good. Link to comment
Social Democratic Confederation Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 Dang it. I was hoping to keep aresenala secret... and I didn't know Adaptus had already mentioned it. I got mine from FAS. I modified mine a little to be able to submerge. This way it surfaces, but remains stealth, launches missiles at structures on the Rennd coast, causing a little havoc and causing fear, then sinks back down and goes back out to sea. Then it returns later, strikes again in a different place. Surface to ship missiles would only be able to lock on if it were detected, this is difficult to do as the ship is stealth. Air attack can only work if planes are scrambled in time, ussually, this isn't quick enough. And attacking it with ships will only work if they are in the vacinity, or detect it before attempting to engage... @Tag: The first wave of jets was only twelve planes, not enough to wipe you out entirely. The next one will be 85 planes... PH34R M3 Oh and Arsenal isn't carrying nukes, dont worry... Link to comment
Ide Jima Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 A stealth ship armed to the brim with cruise missiles operating in the Byzantine sea? This may prompt the Ide Jiman military to get involved - even if you are technically on our side. Link to comment
Rennd Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 (edited) Join the LT... Anyway, i was thinking of rping some sort of internal thingy, ya know like protests, and demonstrations against the war. What do you guys think of this? Edited July 21, 2006 by Rennd (see edit history) Link to comment
Tagmatium Rules Posted July 21, 2006 Author Share Posted July 21, 2006 (edited) You wouldn't be expected to know about the Arsenal thing, as it's a good few months ago that this all happened, way before you came to this region, although you're operating your's more like a stealth balistic submarine. I?m not being funny, Aristo, but I don?t actually want to have my brigades wiped out. You?re also going to start a war with two close neighbours if you do do such a thing. The fact that a pilot has no insignia and carries a cyanide pill is also a bit fishy, especially when he?s going into combat against what I can presume is a well known nation ? the closeness of our two nations means he probably knows people from Tagmatium, and vice versa. Again, it?s also very unfair, as when my men capture him, you can just say he tops himself. The naval deployment would have been watched by spy satellites, plans and the like, so they know where you?re headed. You?ve said that you?ve left it open, but only as far as for me to say my men are dead or dying. Basically, continue with your IC course of action and you risk war with the League of the Treaty, because Tagmatium will want revenge.

Ide Jima Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 ^ To be honest, I think the LT has a reason for war as it stands. Link to comment
