The Island Game

New British forces advance from the North West (when I said South West earlier, it was a typo). The Royal Marines and 51th Highlanders have seized the regional capitol.

I have hard time believing that an intergalacic army of ailiens would be so easilydefeated...
 
The Scalers are not as advanced as you think. Even though they have space travel, much of their technology is on par with most of the nations. Technantis even has greater technology than the Scalers in some areas.

Andaran troops have been biding their time, and then they struck out, capturing the rest of the state and some borderline areas.
 
Trichomedian forces push eastward, linking up with the resistance group and Technantis's army.

Selachiman troops have handed over control of the northern occupied zone to the local resistance. At the same time Selachiman marines have reinforce the forces the west as part of Operation Thorvald, seizing almost the entire western coastline. Armored divisions working inland have also managed to gain some ground against the aliens.

Whether or not to use the new Arbiter Bomber has been debated for a while by Trichomedians. On one hand, we don't need it, the Scalers are losing regardless, but on the other hand, we have it, why not use it, and there's no kill like overkill.

It was decided to use the Bomber in conjunction with an invasion of the capital. However, the forces invading there had just landed on the West Coast, so it will be some time before the Capital is attacked.

How, exactly?
 
All across the Republic something strange was happening. A pulsing throb could be heard everywhere and anywhere and it was growing louder. The throb rose in frequency; buildings began to vibrate and people collasped in the street dead or unconscious. However all was not lost for the people of the Republic as the Guardians soon informed civilians to head below ground were they would be safe.

"Last capacitor wired up. Please confirm the power is available"
"Confirmed. Bringing reserve power supplies online and releasing all stored civilian energy. The capacitors are now in use. Power levels are increasing smoothly. Amplitude is increasing, dropping to harmless frequencies until desired amplitude is reached. HQ we will be ready in five minutes. Are we clear to go?
"This is HQ speaking, the Council has voted to allow you guys to proceed and we give you authorisation. Proceed with all haste."
"Three minutes until desired amplitude is reached."
"Two"
"One minute until we are ready. Last chance to abort HQ."
"Do not abort. Proceed as planed."
"Amplitude reached. Setting desired frequency level now. Frequency reached."
"How long?"
"A short thirty second burst should achieve the objective."

***​

Thirty seconds later and the global resistance to the Scaler threat watched as the vehicles of the Scalers began to vibrate and then break apart. Dumbstruck they begin to advance against the now greatly weakened Scaler army watching as all of the Scaler vehicles fall apart, type by type.

***​

"Correct resonance levels have been achieved in all targets. All targets are neutralised. Lowering frequency to hit secondary targets."

***​

Another thirty seconds pass and the resistance watch as the armour of the Scaler infantry begins to vibrate and break apart. However this time things weren't so great for the resistance fighters and many of them became nauseous and the ones closest to the Scaler lines were knocked out or killed. The Scalers were now defenceless and stunned just as badly as the resistance fighters themselves.

***​

"All secondary targets neutralised. Shall we power down?"
"Power down."
"Powering down. All transmitters offline."
"Excellent. Restore power to civilian and military compounds. Reconnect the capacitors to the Sea-Wall defences."

***​

Power was quickly restored to the Republic and a fleet of drones carrying over two hundred Guardians was dispatched to engage the Scalers. The Guardians rapidly overwhelmed the flanked Scalers in the region in which they landed and other forces have also had radical success against the Scalers. But the Scalers still had their warfleet intact and orbital bombardment of allied positions prevented a total ground defeat.

Map is wrong. See map below.
 
"Well, it seems Xox Xooklia (damn them) beat us to the capital. Ah well, let's use that Arbiter anyway! Target?"

"Let's aim for the middle of Scaler-Controlled Territory."

"What good will that do? The bomb's range is only..."

"Ah, it seems you don't know we were doing some expirementing with the bomb. We have now developed a prototype Mark II Arbiter Bomb. Tests show it should have range roughly equivalent to current Scaler territory."

"Alright, let it rip."

Soon after, an Arbiter Bomber was flown to that spot for the mission. With the Scaler ships destroyed by the Republic's weapon, It was very easy to do this. It dropped the bomb, and soon after, it hit the ground and exploded.

The Trichomedian Scientists had underestimated the power of the Bomb. The resulting shockwave did affect all of the Scalers' currently held territory. It also went a fair amount beyond that, hitting some of the forces of Trichomedia, Technantis, Selachima, and Andara, and all of Xox Xooklia's forces.

"Damn... I hope the resistance fighters don't hate us for that..."

"Ah well, now we get the Capital! HAH, XOX XOOKLIA!"

As all of Xox Xooklia's forces were gone from the capital, Trichomedia marched in. It, unfortunately, seemed to have taken a fair amount of damage from the Arbiter Bomb.

Selachiman forces deployed in central Technantis were in a position to take full advantage of the destruction of Scaler forces due to the use of the Republic's secret weapon and the Arbiter MkII bomb, and poured into eastern Technantis. The alien warfleet suffered a resounding defeat at the hands of Selachima's new generation of fighters. Another amphibious landing in the east help secure the northern part of the remaining Scaler territory for Selachima, which surrounds the Technan capital on three sides.

In a related story, the National Assembly decided as a group today that Trichomedia owe Selachima an apology and many, many bags of chocolate for the destruction of part of the Selachiman army due to the Arbiter MkII bomb and decided to demand immediate reparations from Trichomedia. If this demand is not met, then we will come and collect it anyway.
 
Soon after invasion The Trichomedian soldiers around the capital began to experienced swelling of the eyelids forcing their eyes shut, this was followed by the uncontrolled explosive evacuation of the bowels, and painful swelling of the urethra preventing urination. Death ensued a few hours after from either dehydration if one was lucky or shock from bursting bladders. New soldiers that entered the area died in the same way a few biohazard teams did make it in but found no survivors.

A letter from the Xox Xooklian government was issued:

"The government of Xox Xooklia apologies to the families of Trichomedian soldiers for failing to warn Trichomedia of the destruction of the Scaler biological weapons research lab in the Technan capital by the poorly tested experimental Trichomedian WMD. At the time of the catastrophe, the only people outside of Technantis with information on this was the Xox Xooklian prime minister and military secretary. When the prime minister heard, "Ah well, now we get the Capital! HAH, XOX XOOKLIA!" from prominent Trichomedian officials at the start of their invasion he threw a chair at the wall in rage. Unfortunately that was an anchor point of a suspended light fixture, which fell down on both knocking them out.

Luckily on the discovery of the weapons facility, Xox Xooklia constructed underground emergency facilities to store their forces. We have received word that most of them are fine, and quickly hatching a evacuation plan.

Sadly the Technan capital will remain uninhabitable for quite a few years. Fortunately, the disease isn't spread humans to humans, so long as people stay out of the affected area, everyone else should be safe"

Well, thanks.
 
My apologies to the other nations, there will be many bags of chocolate sent to Andara, Techantis, and Selachima.

You, Xox Xooklia, get nothing, since we don't like you and you did the same thing. :p
 
Xox Xooklia sends chocolates and heartfelt condolences to the families of affected Trichomedian soldiers anyways. Unlike some governments the Xox Xooklian doesn't gloat over the suffering of other nations.
 
Trichomedia doesn't either, unless we don't like said nation.
