Catalan government officials arrested amid referendum row:

The situation in Catalonia is getting more dramatic, and I don't feel I can really copy it with my Serevan indy ref. so, I'm not really sure where to take this story....

@Qwert; Sorry for putting Sedunn on the spotlight in the  Reizen Civil War. The Frost and RDP warships are roughly 680~700 miles south southwest of Deriess Island, so they haven't breached the Sedunnic EEZ yet.

I have planned for the blockade runner/raiders to either sink, escape or surrender at approximately 240 nautical miles Southwest of Deriess Island. If its alright with you I was also considering other options such as the runners be captured, sunk or relieved by Sedunnic authorities.

@Imperial Frost Federation, it's all right, don't mind a little action now and then Happywide

One thing though. A nation's EEZ is not territorial water. If we assume the same definitions as the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, the warships have the right to free to passage within the EEZ up to 12 nautical miles from the Sedunnic shores (or 24 nautical miles if Sedunn would push the limit).

You could always have the ships approach, or even enter Sedunn's territorial sea and see what happens Tounge

@Qwert
I'm using the term informally since I assume the Kingdom of Sedunnic has jurisdiction over its EEZ. I will clarify if/ when they do approach the 24 nautical mile zone

As long as the ships don't start extracting any resources or fishing, Sedunn can't legally stop them from entering the EEZ. If they approach the territorial sea (12 nautical miles), the following would happen.

Sedunn would first demand a course change away from its territorial sea and mark or imply a decisive military capacity. The next step would be trying to force the ships to change course by having ships from the navy approach them at a collision course and/or fire warning shots.

If they still enter, the ships would be given an ultimatum to turn around and be escorted out, or be escorted to a harbour to surrender, or be destroyed.

So, this is my response to this.  Basically, I don't feel that I can take this story anywhere particularly interesting whilst it is actually happening somewhere in the real world at the same time (which is a coincidence on a scale that still freaks me out), especially when I think that the RL situation is not likely to end well for anyone involved, though I hope I'm wrong about that.

Just for the record, and to let y'all know. Ryccia has my full OOC support in his actions, even if Erinor is less than happy about them.

Similarly, VPRB is in frequent contact with me and we're happy to play this out for now (although the Ryccian stuff only happened since our last message).

For the story! *runs into the hills waving a sword*

Still reacting on this like I did though. Hope that'll not be a problem

Worry not. I'll try to make it as bloodless as possible, and even offer affected people food, and try to explain the invasion. That way, the Serevans will see the invasion force in a good light.

That might not work, but it'll do.

I'm pretty sure it will have mixed results. *cackles maniacally*
