| [IC] King Andrei Of Stoinia State Visit To Emerald |
|
"That sounds okay, but I am wondering what you mean about the ERAF's ESF-25 Fighter? and What about our Navies? As you should know, Emerald has a history of Naval Prowess, at least in Bareland. As far as I know, the Stoinian Navy sources it ships from Myria. May I ask, that to test the ERN's tactics, we also do Naval Exercises."
They entered the Starhawk Pact HQ and went through security with minimal issues, until one of Andrei's guard had trouble understanding the Cimbrian Speaking Security guard. Thankfully King Joshua VII managed the situation and got Andrei's guard to understand that it was his service pistol that was coming up on the Metal detector. "Sorry about that, that guard doesn't know Austral or Tarnian. Alright let's head to the Meeting room."
- "I must correct you that we also source our ships from our Sedunnic friends. They've always had a much better affinity for the seas. Hence why we Stoinians joke that the sky is our sea. As for the ESF-25, I've heard good things, but some of my staff have voiced their interest in its capabilities to engage in some of our unique manoeuvres. Our carrier group can help in naval exercises of course."
As King Joshua explained the security issue to him, King Andrei remarked with smile. - "You must be a polyglot by now." Pacifica: Myria, Sallodesia, Stoinia • A1-0: Stoinian Star Kingdom • Aurora: Kingdom of Threnebor
"Just another reminder of how diverse our world is."
They enter the meeting room, and Joshua notices how bland and grey the room seems, but the Pact is relatively new and this building is temporary. Joshua also notices the fact that at one side of the table is mini versions of the Emeraldian, Denverian, Union, and Ludvillian flag while the other has a mini Stoinian Flag. "Well thats kinda overkill isn't it, I mean, I am king over Emerald, Denver, and the Union, but Ludville, Seriously?" "I do wanna ask you how you see the Emeraldian Navy and its doctrine of still using Battleships and Battlecruisers as Ground Support and Anti-Missile alongside modern warships."
- "Frankly... I believe the age of the battleships has sailed past its glory days. Hence why our battleship is more of a ceremonial ship and hasn't seen action in decades. We Stoinians believe in a more carrier-centered doctrine with our airplanes being our forte. While I admit that the battleships and battlecruisers can still hold a place in ground support as mobile artillery. However, I still do believe airplanes on carriers are capable of the same results and much more cost-effective."
King Andrei took a look around the room and noticed the Stoinian flag and smiled at it. - "Though I'm sure your battleships and battlecruisers are sturdier than ours. It actually brings me to another opportunity: the possibility of your arms and ship manufacturers joining the Cross-Mediterranean Ordnance Conglomerate. It would definitely open up your market if you'd be interested." Pacifica: Myria, Sallodesia, Stoinia • A1-0: Stoinian Star Kingdom • Aurora: Kingdom of Threnebor
"Emerald also see's the usefulness of Carriers, but it is true that Emeraldian Battleships and Battlecruisers certainly aren't glass cannons. The ERN decided to continue to progress battleship design and we came up with something that has speed, range, and a metric ton of AA and ABM systems."
Joshua looks around the room again and notices multiple paintings of the ERNS Jylland. "The Pride of the Navy as she's called" "Interesting, you are proposing that Denvarian Arms and Shipbuilding companies join the CMOC? I am very interested and it would for sure open up that market. Denvarian designs are quite unique and some designs would certainly need an international version. I will admit the DAC was more there to show off some Denvarian designs and was never properly set up."
- "Indeed. I'll be sure to tell our Navy to take a note here and there should we wish to build our own battleships in the future. Either way, should our navies work together, they'd complement each other. Something we could see in the joint exercises."
King Andrei took another glance of the ERNS Jylland's paintings. He saw a certain glory in it, but still wasn't further persuaded that the age of battleships had sailed. - "We're going to work together closely even on military matters. I don't see why we shouldn't work together to form a stronger unified competitor for the market. I believe our futures will bring us closer together and make us stronger, CMOC is one such way. Should you wish to accept." Pacifica: Myria, Sallodesia, Stoinia • A1-0: Stoinian Star Kingdom • Aurora: Kingdom of Threnebor
"I think I will, but it will have to be confirmed with the Ministry Of Defense first. I don't how we haven't brought it up yet, but where exactly does Stoinia want their Military Bases?"
He looked at the table and realized that a Secret Blueprint was right on the table. A secret blueprint of a Secret Battleship. Joshua brushes it off the table with a little bit of force, accidentally knocking over two of the mini flags. "Sorry about that, you don't have the security clearance to view that."
- "I understand. However I'm more worried about the flags to be perfectly honest."
He then opened up a military map and pointed right in the middle of Emerald-Denver. - "For Emerald-Denver we believe a new military base for the army and air force would be optimal near Vailen. A permanent garrison of 2.000 Army and 1.500 Air Force personnel should be sufficient. From there our forces can coordinate military exercises and provide best coverage to the Union. In Spiras we'd like to hold a garrison in Fort Stoinia with roughly 1.000 soldiers alongside a joint military base near Spiry for all combined arms. Both for training and operations in the Mediterranean. I believe President Smith wanted additional bases in Emerald-Denver and Nova Colradia, but that'll be the phone call for the two of you." Pacifica: Myria, Sallodesia, Stoinia • A1-0: Stoinian Star Kingdom • Aurora: Kingdom of Threnebor
Joshua picks up the two flags as he listens to Andrei.
"That sounds fine, although I must ask, could The Starhawk pact have training bases of their own in Stoinia? And as for Sallodesia, you're right, that will definitely be a phone call, I just gotta make time in my schedule." He also opened up a map, a map of the Frontlines in Denver. "We should maybe shift our focus to the matter at hand. The Communists have nearly been defeated, but the Nationalists keep pulling unusual tactics. I say we should defeat the Remains of the communists to free up Task Force Eagle and Denver. As for the Nationalists, I already have the CDF pushing for Bigfox and Union/Stoinian forces are pushing for Vulture."
- "As long as those bases remain strictly for training purposes, I'm sure we can arrange them. We're here to work together towards a brighter future after all."
King Andrei leaned forward to get a good view of the map. He was already briefed of course, but wanted to be sure that he was on the same page as King Joshua. - "I agree. If I recall correctly our military officers have called for this weeks ago, but unfortunately your forces didn't agree at the time. Now that perhaps the Supreme Commanders agree on the matter, we can indeed put an end on to this red calamity. As for Bigfox, we can spare the resources to support. I suggest we can some aerial reconnaissance in advance to plan out our best plan of attacks before fully committing."
