Battle Group Delta, led by the missile frigate RLK-NV Albright left Adailton. This marks the first time in three years that any of the missile frigate battle groups has been outside the Sea of Storms.
Hellfire anti-tank missiles have been secretly removed from storage facilities, according to an anonymous source in the military procurement department. The Joint Command denies that it has anything to do with similar missiles appearing in the possession of Free Azan soldiers.

Bogaidian Bay, Azan
Azan has a number of interesting terrain features dotted around its landscape, one of which are the fjords along it's western coastline left behind by glaciers during the last Ice Age. As far as fjords go, Bogaidian Bay is more interesting than the most, at least to geologists.
Out in the open sea, a string of inflatable rafts and small boats were moving towards an island in the bay. There were 3 to 4 men on each craft, all dressed in black. The lead boat had already landed at a sandy beach on the island, the people on it got off and started unloading.
"Interesting place, Thorn." one of the man said quietly, breaking the silence.
"Yes, Lamp Shade. Bogaidian Bay is an ideal landing area for covert operations, if you know what you are doing. Nobody knows what they are doing here unless they are locals."
"You are a local." said the man called Lamp Shade.
"Yes... until the Auldoninnans came here and destroyed our village," Thorn started checking his equipment. Other small crafts had also landed, with small teams of men quickly and quietly getting ready to move out.
Thorn continued, "But now, thanks to your country's help, we are going to take back our land."
Lamp Shade looked out into the open sea. The last of the rafts was on its way here. He counted the small crafts, "Good. All 22 of boats are counted for."
Already, a line of men had set off toward the main land, which was connected to the island by a sand bar.
Thorn said, "We have about 20 minutes left before the tide starts to come in. I need to get going."
Lamp Shade looked at the cliff face on the far side, with parts of it covered by trees and bushes. "How do you get up there?"
"Oh, there's a way, a hidden way. Only a local would know." Thorn said, mysteriously.
Lamp Shade smiled. "Ah, yes. It's good to be a local. You know how to contact us, right?"
"Yes," Thorn said. Then he started walking toward the cliff, carrying a large backpack, an automatic rifle, and other assorted military equipment.
Lamp Shade watched him go. Several minutes later, he thought Thorn stopped and gave him a thumbs up sign, but he couldn't he sure. It's dark, even with the moon shining.
"Sir," his train of thought was interrupted, "time to get back."
Lamp Shade looked around. Several small boats were heading back to the transport, with the last one waiting for him.
"Ah yes. Lets go. The tide will be here soon."
Several minutes later, the water started to rise. Soon, the sea would swallow all evidence that people had been here.

Nooslandian Central Command
"What's the threat accessment, William?" asked Tiffany Thom, Chairperson of Noosland, head of Centeal Command.
William Smith, head of the National Security Committee, said, "Minor. Both Hive and Frankychanland have very large but poorly equipped armies. They fight reasonably well in large groups along prepared defensive lines, and their massed armored attacks pack quite a punch. However, they are completely unprepared to engage in small group combat, and particularly poor in urban fighting."
"Auldoninna is also along the same line. So all our potential enemies rely on quantity, then."
General Solavic, head of the Azanian Provisional Theatre Command, started his briefing. The large display sprang into life. The members of Central Command listened attentively. "The 3rd Light Infantry Division now holds the defensive perimeters, with the 12th as strategic reserves. A number of our Special Forces teams are operating within and without Free Azan areas."
"A number of Hive and FCL operatives were captured by our patrols while trying to inflitrate the International Sanctuary. They are now questioned by the Nooslandian Intelligence Bureau."
He continued on, detailing various plans and operations that were underway.
"Intelligence indicates that Western Apolyton is in fact an Auldoninnan stooge. This can post considerable threat to Guardinia. Their fighters and bombers post little threat to our naval elements. "Eyes 1" have them covered around the clock," said Admiral Chang, Commander of the Third Fleet, after General Solavic had finished.

President Brooke sends memo to Leader of the Guardinians Browse Apolyton AD-FREE
My Dear Fellow National LEader,
It is with great concern that I hear through my many channels of information, that your great nation is concerned of the palcement of my troops in a neighbouring province to your own.
We the Auldoninian people wish to openly state that at no stage have any of our targets been in your nation, nor has that stance changed. We ahve bigger fish to fry than to take on a peaceful and friendly nation such as yourself.
Whilst we can not at this stage reveal to you our full plans in the international arena, we can promise, that unless you fire the first shot, we shall not ever invade your territory nor fly missions over your territory, (without your permision).
I offer now to you an Olive Branch of peace. Whilst I understand due to pur political differneces we can not be allied, I trust this document offering peace and neutrality towards each other is sufficient to render your stress less.
You may deem that to make peace we should remove our forces from Western Apolyton, I am sorry to say that can not happen due to our afore mentioned international plans.
Please accept this agreement as it has the full support of not only my self , but also all members of the Auldonina Parliament, in a bipartisan agreement.
Signed
President Brooke

OOC: Well, your offer was posted after midninght my time, while I was fast asleep. I'm sorry, but I wasn't aware that not waking up in the middle of the night to answer would constitute rejecting the offer. 
Now I'm at work and I have to do other stuff in between posting, so even though you see a yellow light bulb next to my name, I might not always be able to answer within the hour.
You will have your answer - in due course. I suggest you wait and see what it will be before jumping to conclusions. 
Oh, and by the way, I'm okay with Sally playing and I don't mind you two being allied. 
IC, Guardinia feels that Western Apolyton must have either misunderstood Guardinia's position or been deliberately misinformed by someone, but that's a different story...

Inside a village, somewhere in Frankychanland occupied Azan.
The rag-tag band came upon the stable, where three men came out to greet them. "Mr Mark Brewer, I presume," said the front man, his face hid in the shadows of his hat.
"That's right, that's me. So what do you got there?"
"I am Vincent Grey," the front man said as he motioned toward a lorry, parked next to the stable.
Brewer and his man laughed. "We've got tons of small arms."
Vincent Grey motione by tilting his head, "This way, if you please." He then walked back into the stable, with the two other men following him.
Brewer hesistated. "Okay, Stump and Greg follow me. The rest of you stay out here."
Inside the stable, Grey was already waiting. "Here," as he flipped over a canvas sitting on the floor.
Brewer's jaw dropped. "The Viper?"
"Yes, the Viper, an advanced man portable SAM that can easily knock down low flying aircrafts and attack helos. Top speed well exceeds Mach 3."
Brewer's face glowed, "Jesus..."
"There are a total of 12 launchers including this one, plus six dozen missiles," Grey tossed a set of keys to Mark, who caught it absentmindedly, "All yours." He then walked out the back wall, which had been ripped open previously. His men left behind him.
Stump shook Brewer. "Hey Mark, they're gone."

To All Nations
We are pleased to have the People of Auldoninna in our nation. Yes we rejected Ceroo and Guardina responses, due mainly to their lack of belief in any terrorist camps in our nation that we needed to deal with. Once they openly expressed disbeleif that they existed we had no choice but to open our doors to a nation that has shown it is not afraid to stand upto terrorism and refuse to supply terrorists with arms as some have done.
We are a free nation and we are free to have whomsoever we choose to be our Hero
From the Free People of Western Apolyton.

Official statement by the Guardinian Department of Foreign Affairs.
Guardinia acknowledges the people of Western Apolyton's right to choose their own allies, although we admit to being disappointed by the fact that it appears they never seriously considered our offer. The government of Western Apolyton appears to have misunderstood our position, and we feel it is most unfortunate that we were never given any chance to clarify such misunderstandings. This is not the way peaceful relations between neighbours are made.
As previously stated, Auldoninnan bases in Western Apolyton are seen as a threat to Guardinia, and in response we are increasing security along our shared border, including deployment of military forces and increased surveillance and air patrols.
Hopefully, that's as far as this goes.
We wish all the best for the Free People of Western Apolyton, but we certainly hope that their government will talk to us next time before jumping to conclusions and making decisions that could jeopardize relations between us.
With kind regards
-Sean Baldwin, Minister of Foreign Affairs

Guardinia's official response:
Dear Mr. President,
On behalf of the Guardinian people, I thank you for your letter. I can confirm that the recent deployment of Auldoninna troops in Western Apolyton has been a source of concern amongst our people and that we have been compelled to respond accordingly - by increasing our own military readyness in the border region.
We gratefully accept your peace offering, but I am afraid we can not lower our defenses as long as we do not know your intentions. However, I can assure you that we will not fire the first shot. Hopefully, this means that our nations will not have a problem with each other.
Be advised, however, that any deliberate attack on Guardinia's allies or innocent third party personnel would be considered an attack on Guardinia, in which case our agreement would be null and void and a state of war would exist between our nations.
Based on your letter, we trust it will not come to that.
Have a nice day.
With regards,
-Blake Fowler, President of Guardinia
[OOC: As you can see, the Guardinians are kind of pissed, but they're not going to take it any further for now. The letter from Auldoninna's president did help, although it was not enough. (Remember, we do not trust him.) Things could get better from here on... we'll just have to see what happens next...
Oh, and by the way, I'll be busy for pretty much the rest of today and I'm going away for the entire weekend, so I probably won't be reading or posting much more until monday some time. Just so you all know about it. Have a nice weeked! ]
