The Second Verussian War: Difference between revisions

Ether side blamed each other for starting the 'spy situation', although it was revealed later that only the [[LoN]] actively participated and encouraged in it. As tensions increased and war became more and more likely, several crews from each side drew up plans for [[Super Weapons]] as a deterrent. These 'super weapons' took many different forms, most commonly in the form of bombardment towers. Many of the plans that were drawn up were very ambitious, and were subsequently leaked to each side. This encouraged newer plans to be drawn up with even more ambitious weapons; either side trying to best the other.

4 main super weapons were suggested, these being large bombardment towers by the [[Entarian Alliance]] and [[Xenon Empire]], a bioweapon by the [[Elven Empire]], and a ship with over 200 cannons by the [[British Empire]]. Of these 4 designs, the British and Elven designs never left the planning stage, the Entarian design was started but eventually scrapped, and the Xenon was fully built as the [[Xenon Tower]].

 

A few days prior to war, the [[EA]] was kicked out of the [[FNA]] as they 'did not stick to [[FNA]] ideals' due to their rumored invasion plans, and their construction and planned use of their super weapon. This came as a shock to the [[LoN]].

 

With a powerful nation kicked out of the [[FNA]] this left only the [[VE]] and old SPQR as frontrunners in the confrontations. The [[VE]] took centre stage in terms of diplomacy on behalf of the [[FNA]]. After a series of strongly worded letters from British and Verussian officials, war became imminent and each side started gathering troops and resources. The [[XE]] had started construction of the [[Xenon Tower]] in the sea separating the Xenon Empire from the Verussian Empire. It was roughly 7

65% complete when war eventually broke out, but was hastily made combat ready in order to serve as bombardment support for the eventual invasion of Verussian cities.
