History

Estebere has ordered that all flights to and from Anatopen be redirected immediately. Along with this all tourists have been advised to find a safehouse in Anatopen to wait it out. We will be taking a neutral stance, as we have no present relations with Anatopen.

WESLR Colonization and Exploration Corps!

WESLR astronauts have successfully launched aboard X-23, an experimental, fusion powered Spacecraft. The Refugi Space Elevator was able to raise to an altitude high enough to the point that having to deal with the atmosphere of our planet, and was able to limit the carbon dioxide generated by the flight. Waywardian Carbonization plants are currently picking up the C02 and are converting it into Oxygen and solid Carbon.

The goal of X-23 is to be the first mission to our distant planetary friend, Mars! The journey will take approximately 8~ months and will start the process of terraforming mars into a paradise for us all.

As the plaque from Apollo 11 read

"Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the moon, July 1969 A.D. We came in peace for all mankind."

We also brought a plaque

"Here the WESLR Coalition from the Planet of Refugia first set upon the Planet Mars, June 2023. We came in peace for all people."

The crew of X-23

Commander - Alice Corni

Pilot - Erich Alix

Head Scientist - 2nd Lt Archer

Lead Engineer - 1st Lt Alex

Rover Controller - AI HAL9000

Lead Reactor Technician - Daisy Cindy

Gunners Mate - Major Idiot (OOC: Spaceballs reference, anyone)

Therapist - Ella Aaros

Civilians - 10

Total crew - 18

On another note, Estebere would like to fund further projects related to humanity on Mars conducted by WESLR and Refugia in general.

Operation Judgement: First Tactical Deployment of the WESLR Special Defense Force Ranger Command

Operation Linebacker: First Tactical Deployment of WESLR Carrier Bomber Command 432nd Bomber Strike Squadron

Operation Judgement Tactical Objective: Rescue Hostages

Operation Linebacker Tactical Objectives: False Flag/Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses

-03:12 Hours-

Unnoticed, a group of the elite Special Defense Force Ranger Command approaches the target destination, the Waywardian Embassy. The room is anxious. Any slip up could lead to the death of all the hostages.

"Entering Operational Airspace."

"Helo 1, landing."

"Helo 2, landing."

They land outside of the bustling city. Urban Camouflage isn't even needed, as they have disguises. Disguising themselves as Anatopen soldiers, they enter the city. They make it to the Embassy, without being detected. Each soldier loads their weapons, and Room XII gives the order

"Phase 2 is a go. I repeat, Phase 2 is a go. Breach at will."

Phase 2 Begins of Operation Judgement.

-03:42 Hours-

Breach.

The Embassy doors open, blown open with a shaped charge. WESLR Rangers scale the Embassy wall. In seconds, Force B enters via a hole by another shaped charge.

The explosions are muffled by the sound of jets flying over the Embassy, while Air Defenses open up. The teams secure the building in less than 5 minutes, as most of the Embassy Hostage Takers are inexperienced, leading to 10 deaths, each one an Anatopen Hostage Guard.

"All Hostages Secured, Command. Repeat. All Hostages Secured."

Phase 3 of Operation Judgement begins.

-03:50 Hours-

Carrier Keystone and Fleet Carrier Frontier begin the Sortie. 20 F-111s begin takeoff preparations.

"Strider Squadron, Takeoff Preparation Complete. Sortie ASAP"

-04:00 Hours-

With the enemy Air defenses making an air evac impossible, they call in F-111s. The Laser Guided Bombs hit Air Defenses. Anatopen Air Defenses, overwhelmed, focus on the Aardvarks. What they don't see is the 2 Stealth Blackhawk Helicopters entering the AO. They count the numbers of Hostages, and load everyone on, place Demolition Explosives on the Helis they used to get there, they escape before Anatopen troops notice.

-4:25 Hours-

"Mission Accomplished, return to base."

Helo 1 and Helo 2 return to the Carrier Keystone, who is operating offshore. She and the Fleet Carrier Frontier were launching the F-111s. The Medical Bay is filled as they turn to leave Anatopen waters.

And WESLR could honestly care less, if we are being honest.

WESLR killed upwards of 60 people, all of which were either military, or near the shrapnel while we were conducting SEAD to give the choppers time to leave.

WESLR suggests you try not to get angry, while your citizens are technically in revolt.

Your 'help' in freeing the hostages is freeing an unelected monarchy and nobility caste. So, when you say:
