SSNES: Fall of Wu'di

Just wondering: Shaemar (4/3/5/0/+1) How?

----

From: Ramon
To: Delanor and Horus


Well here is a fast plan for an attack against the westenr Wu'di.

Spoiler :


my.php


1. Horus lunches an attack to the south, to lure wu'di forces in their direction. If the Wu'di are still busy in Lochia, Horus will attack them from above, in time with the Delanor/Ramon attack from the South.

2. In the South a joined Delanorian/Ramonian Force will gather and then lunch an invasion deep into the western Hearthlands. Their goal will either be the besieged Lochian capital, or if Wudi forces are done with it before we reach it, the Wu'di forces going for Horus. Either way we will attack the Wu'di army from behind.

 
He finished his Merchant Guild Manipulation. It gave him an extra eco level. That is how.
 
Ah crap so that's the seat of two brothers eh?Resending orders to match with your plans then.

EDIT:Resent orders to match the plan.Please the delete the old one SS,thanks.
 
I'll not be able to send orders today. Sorry, but I still have to write some 5 pages for school.
 
No problem. As long as they are in by Thursday, noone gets hanged. If not, well, you better hurry, or it will be left out from the update. This means, effectively, that I will either bank all your eco and put your nation in hiatus, or I will spend them on what seems the most appropriate regarding the situation.

Anyway, I will not put my heart into vicariously running your unattended nations, so sending them yourself will always be better for you. ;)

EDIT: Orders received, Cleric. They seem fine.

I will post one of the order sets that tossi sent me. It's just so you see how I like it to be. It is by no means a must to base your orders on his example, but it's more to encourage you so you give it some thought. Feel free to ignore it or embrace it. I hope this is OK with you, tossi. ;)
 
[Embarassing]@tossi: Quick! Write a set of orders so I can give the others the example! I flushed my PM box this weekend![/Embarassing]
 
Diplomacy

-Sign Peace treaty and trade pact with Galadinia. (which of the Lirkland nations is it on the map?)
-Sign a MPP with Rollux
-sign a trade pact and a defensive pact with Delenlor

Orders

-invest one eco point to finnish the Fire summoning
-invest one eco point into raising the economy. Do this by mining the eastern mountain ridge.
-invest two eco points to raise 200 Heavy cavalry
-invest one eco point to raise 10 Adepts
-all newly trained forces will be used to defend the nation.

Coast watch

-set up a network of watch towers to guard the coastline against any possible attack by sea.
-if an invasion force is located, we will riders will race inland to inform the Generals.

Peacefull Expansion

-lay claim to all lands between the two mountain ranges (which will one day be named)

Military Campaigns:

Eastern Campaign
Forces: 15 Adepts, 150 HC, 350 Bowmen, 3000 LI

Send this force to the east and capture the two Wu'di cities as shown on the map. After taking the big one (magical citadel?) start building fortifications around it to be prepared of a possible counter-attack.

We will at first bombard the city with a rain of fire and arrow and fire arrows. Once the enemy is weakened enough the Light Infantry will storm the city and then the Heavy Cavalry will rush in to finnish it.

Archers will be rewarded for killing enemy adepts. This should encourage them to pick those fellows from the walls.

Western Campaign
Forces: 5 Adepts, 50 HC, 50 Bowmen, 1500 LI

This force will capture the single city in the South-West. After taking it, we will fortify it.

We had some experience in taking Wu'di cities, didn't we? The general should do fine.

I still think they are not very good... Good organzied, maybe. But else..
Those below are better, but I have written much better orders.

Spoiler :

Defense of the Kingdom
For Queen & Country!


The Invasion
I expect that the French will try to land at my coast this year, to prevent that I will become too strong. They seem to have enough troops to quell three rebellions at the same time. Although their logistics might be troublesome..

-We will use 1 economic point to raise 5 divisions
-We will also try to raise a a number of irregular divisions

To support our forces we will plunder the French colonial armory and we will also set up weapon smiths hidden deep inside the mountains of the island.

Forces: 10 divisions + Irregulars.

The defense will be divided by the geographical regions of Madagascar:

A: Tsaratanana Massif
The Tsaratanana Massif is at the northern point of the Island. It features volcanos and mountains as high as 2,880 meters.

-This is the area where we have the biggest chance to push the French back into the see. We could endure the initial French bombing by hiding in the mountainous terrain. Once the cannons quieten down we could great the landing troops with riffle fire from above killing many of them, before their cannons force us back again.
-Even if the beach is taken, we will still inflict humanilating casualties on the advancing troops when they try to cross the mountains.
-The terrain will give plenty of opportunities to set ambushes and attack the enemy columns from above.
-My forces will use caves as HQs, from where they will lunch their attacks and store supplies. These caves will be hard to find and easy to defend.
-The forces fighting in this area will mostly consist of locals who know the terrain very well, and some units from the Central highlands, who have equal knowledge in mountain warfare.

Forces deployed: 2 local division + irregulars

B: East coast
The Eastern coast of Madagascar is very straight, lacking any natural harbors. The distance from the coast to the Central highlands is about 50km.

-Although the flat terrain seems to be hard to defend, it is only 50km to the central highlands. Therefore we will try to inflict as many casulites as possible on the initial French landing. We will hide just behind the dunes and only reveal ourselves when the French are in range. This should prevent too many casualties from French bombing. However, once we have fired some volleys, we will pull back from the coast to evade the French counter-fire.
-We will allow the French to occupy the East Cost without too much resistance. However once we reach the Central Highlands, we will turn around and give them a fight...
-The French might send heavy forces to the south-eastern city. We will not try to beat them in a city fight. After greeting the landing troops with some volleys of rifle fire we will pull back to the nearby Ivakoany Massif. From there we will raid the enemy forces.

Forces deployed: 2 division + irregulars

C: Southwest
The South-West is another area where we will inflict heavy casulites on the French. It is separated from the other areas by two Massifs, to the east and to the north. It features a platue and a dessert.

-We will use similar tactics as at the Tsaratanana Massif. The initial French Bombing will be dodged and then we will great the landing French will a volley from above. And before they will be able to shoot back, we will withdraw.
-Our bases of operation will lay deep in the mountain lands and in the dessert. The dessert people of the Antandroy will help us greatly to defend this area. They will raid the enemy camps and supply caravans and pull back deep into the dessert were no European can follow them.
-We will attack French forces from the platues and withdraw before they can do any damage to us.
-The south-western city will be defended in similar fashion as the south-eastern one.

Forces deployed: 2 division + Antandroy people


D: West coast
The west coast will be very hard to defend, as it features many natural harbors. We can only hope that the French are too distracted by their numerous conflicts to overlook this factor.

-Look above. After dodging the enemy cannon fire, we will great them with a couple of volleys and then flee towards the Central Highlands. We don't have a chance...
-However while withdrawing towards the east, we will try to enlarge our forces on the way by recruiting from the local population. The advancing French army might be a good reason to join us.

Forces deployed: 1 division + some irregulars

E: Central highlands
At an altitude of 800 to 1,800 meters the Central Highlands should be a pain to any invaders. The capital city is also located here.

-While the North and the South of the Island feature good defense platforms the East and West cost will most likely get overwhelmed quite easily. As described above our forces will therefore withdraw to the Central Highlands.
-Once these forces reach the first mountains, they will be supported by a several more divisions. With these forces they will make a stand and great the pursing French with heavy fire. This might surprise them, as they hadn't been shot at for several dozen miles.
-But even with the advantage of defense and the high terrain, I don't expect them to hold back the French. When it becomes obvious that our forces are not going to push the enemy back, we will withdraw, after hopefully having inflicted quite some casualties on the French.
-The next defense will be mounted at the capital city. However I want to avoid that the city is too heavily damaged by fighting. However the palace can go down. The Queen will obviously be secretly evacuated long before the first French soldier enters the city. She will hide in the mountains. However an unlucky double will stay at the palace. Once the French enter the palace her room will be lighted. From now on the people will say: Our Queen died defend our country. We must honor her by continuing the Fight. However at the same time rumors will be spread that the Queen is actually still alive.. This should give hope to the people.
-From now on the Central Highlands will be transformed into a killing zone. We will lunch deadly raids at the French and each supply convoy going for the Central Highlands will get a slapping.
-We will build numerous hideouts deep inside the mountains from where we will lunch our attacks. And there will be even more secret places were supplies will be hidden.

Forces deployed: 3 divisions and irregulars + 3 divisions and irregulars from East+West Coast

Supplies and Logistic:

We have quite a small force which is splintered into numerous even smaller units. this should enable us to live from the land and the people. Food and supplies will be gathered in mountainous hideouts. The people will supply us by free will, after all we are fighting for their freedom!
Other supplies will come from raided supply convoys of the enemy.
The eastern and western coasts are the most fertile places on the island. Especially the eastern coast is a big rice producer. The French didn't encounter too much resistance here and they won't see much fighting here. Therefore they might only deploy small patrol forces. This should enable small teams to sneak through enemy lines, take supplies and then bring them back to our forces.

New UU: Battle Engineer

-These squads will be very specialized units. They will lay ambushes at mountain passes. Once an enemy unit passes, dynamite will explode, mortars will rain and rocks will roll down at them.
-They will also sneak into enemy camps and blow them away while they sleep. This should seriously hurt their morale!
-They will be able to operate with minimal equipment and in very small units.
-They wil be used in al mountainous terrain, especially in the Central Highlands and in the North

Conclusion:

I could write more, especially about tactics, but I think its already too much, isn't it? The overall plan is to inflict as many casualties as possbile on the French forces while they land. In the North and South we might even be able to halt their advance. In the West and the East we will withdraw and pull back to the Central. Here we will start a deadly guerillia warfare using the terrain to our advantage. The land should remain intact so that the people can continue to support us.

[SECRET]

To the nations of: Cairo, Pashawan and Republic of Galadinia
From Shaba

I, Nadime Sencrist head councilor of the council of eight of Shaba, propose an alliance between our natioins. We have no interests in encroaching on your terrirories, but I whis that we could cooperate in a comming attack on the Triad, now located between our four nations. A successfully coordinated attack might just crush the eastern part of the hated empire. That is why I, on Shaba's behalf, propose an attack next summer, in a year not this year but next. Will you join me and overthrow the eastern Wu'di and the Triad?

Hopes and Whishes

Interesting :D. I will start a thread about orders.
 
From: Ramon
To: Nations of the Western Shelf


We advice you to lunch an offensive against the Western Wu'di this year.
 
From: Ramon
To: Shaemar


There is no reason why we shouldn't sign an NAP with your great nation. Only that we don't share a border and are hundred of miles apart from each other ;).

I hope that your offensive against the evil Wu'di fares well and we also hope that your western friends will support your attack.
 
Heyheyhey! Why are you guys all so cuddly and friendly all of the sudden? I expect some infighting by now!:gr:
