A lone figure waits at the side of route 26 in the heart of Xenor, the people driving by pay no head to him, thinking that he is just an ordinary hitchhiker. Anyways, multiple housing developments can be found close by so he probably lives in a house nearby. What they don't know is his actual intent.

CP6 - Race to Safety - 3/13/18/18 - 5/7/18
The Great Brick War posted a topic in The Great Brick War
Campaign 6 Race to Safety Map Name: Studica Grid: F10 Oscar Time: 2345 An agent with the Plighia Special Services makes contact with Xenor rebels who have ties to the Servants of Freedom. The agent is hustled passed the men into a pickup truck heading who knows where.... Ten minutes down the road the truck stops and picks up an agent from Toohati along the same highway and keeps driving. They drive for over an hour with neither exchanging any information or pleasantries. They arrive at a warehouse just south of the border with Swintoc. Both agents are brought inside where they meet a man named Victor who explains he is with the Servants of Freedom and extends warm regards from Caesar, their point of contact who is unable to join them. Victor informs both of the agents that they will be taking a trip to a Xenor Army Base - Location Oscar, where they will intercept intel with the SoF. Victor cracks open a crate and starts handing out Xenor Army uniforms and Gear. Once suited up, they all get back in the truck and make their way to base Oscar. While enroute to the location, both agents wind up divulging to the other which government they are with. This is accompanied by heightened tension sitting with their enemy. They have no problem getting on the base. It becomes clear to the agents that the SoF clearly has contacts in high places. After passing through the check point and driving for 10 minutes down a long road in the base, the truck stops in front of a large concrete building. They all get out and two of the SoF members start carrying a crate toward the front door of the building. Victor exchanges greetings with the guards who ask for paperwork. Victor motions his men to bring the crate over. They crack open the crate to reveal their "paperwork" to the guards who naturally let them pass without issue. The guards on duty were placed there by SoF personnel embedded in the Xenor military just for this reason. Victor takes the two agents inside while the rest of his men stay outside pulling watch. While inside, the three men pass through the tight airlocked hallways. They come up to a solid enforced door with a single guard standing watch. He has been radioed by the guards at the door to let them pass through. The three men walk into what looks like an armory and see several boxes and crates that appear to be in the process of getting ready to ship out. Victor looks at one of the manifests on a crate and asks the agents to help him open the crate. They look at each other in hesitation and proceed figuring they've already come this far already. The agent from Toohati peers inside the crate and sees with his own eyes a Nuclear Warhead half way prepared to be used as with an explosive primer. Victor starts telling them that the SoF personnel they have embedded in the military tipped them off about a massive operation to smuggle WMDs around the continent into all of the other nations for use. The Plighian agent stands in disbelief and snatches the manifest out of the other agent's hands to read it with his own eyes. This particular package was being sent to Erotema. Victor and his Personnel carried the crate out and loaded it into the truck. Both agents accompanied them back into SoF territory. Before dropping the agents, Victor told them action would be needed to prevent Nuclear Armageddon from happening and that they would need to work together to eliminate this threat or it would be their own downfall. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- With the revelation surrounding the Nukes found in Xenor, RON and COAC forces have agreed to launch a full scale invasion into Xenor in an attempt to secure military installations suspected of harboring WMDs. Campaign Guidelines RON and COAC forces should be shown engaging Xenor forces at locations across the country in an effort to secure possible WMD sites. There are 16 sites in total.

Grid D10 (STUDICA) - Q10 (WORLD) Xenor site Mike (science and research centre), Silver Isles, Xenor. The Eroteman Intelligence Service believes, according to the scarce information provided in the fragile alliance with the RoN countries, Xenor site Mike can have weapons of mass destruction. This is a science and research centre close to a Naval Base (Xenor site November), which will be attacked by Filace troops (TheBeeze). 1 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr One of the buildings is close to the beach, which is protected with chevaux de frise (Frisian Horses) and antipersonnel mines.

In fact, the remains of a big animal can be seen. 2 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr 3 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr A Xenor soldier with a hot dog can be something confusing…is he going to eat such a delicatessen?

James Jennings again…As Xenor and Briolui have common features, the Directorate S knew that an Eroteman posing as a Brioluian could also appear as a Xenorian. So, after helping the Servants of Freedom, he received orders and infiltrated the Science and Research Centre on site Mike. His orders are to make possible a quick ride by Erotema combat divers, who have reached the beach after being deployed from submarines and using human manned torpedoes. The plan must begin…and he will not enjoy the hot dog. 5 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr The croc, wanting to grow as soon as possible, eats the hot dog. And suddenly, he falls aslept. Meanwhile, James approaches the chevaux de frise and sets an explosive charge to blow it up. 6 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr At the other side of the fence, a head appears over the water. He is one of the many combat divers that will storm the site. 7 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr And he places a Bangalore torpedo to clear a path between the mines. 8 by green helmet spanish AFOL, en Flickr James decides to take position to help the divers get in the beach while taking out any Xenorian soldiers that may appear.

On Tonight's News... "I'm your host Samuel Cook, and tonight on the Toohati News Network I have the obligation to bring forth some terrible news... Our beloved ambassador Victoria Wilson was found dead this morning, of what is apparently a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The investigation is still ongoing, but at this time, the police do not suspect foul play. According to her sister, who just came forward to express her regrets and sorrow, the Ambassador has struggled with depression in the past, though it was believed she had overcome it. "Her appointment to the position of Ambassador made her so happy, and she loved the work she did. No one thought she would relapse... But I guess... I guess the stress and violence of the war was too much," she stated earlier in an interview. Our nation will be mourning her loss, Ambassador Wilson had great support among her people. Viewer discretion is advised, as the following images may not be suitable for children! The police have released this image at the family's request, as they wish to show the devastating results of untreated depression, and they are going to be mounting a campaign to aid those who suffer from it. NOOOOOO!!!!! Our condolences and prayers go out to the family and friends of Ambassador Wilson. There will be a memorial service for her at the National Gardens this coming Saturday, all are invited to pay their respects. Hope you guys like the build! Feel free to comment and critique! @sigpro Don't worry, a new ambassador will be coming soon! -
CAMPAIGN 6: Toohati - Amry Base "HOTEL" Studica E8 Under the cover of darkness, and amid the distraction of other raids, a small force of Toohati soldiers assaulted the army base objective designated "Hotel." Intelligence from the Servants of Freedom has designated this base as a possible storage site for nuclear weapons in transit. As such, this raid may or may not successfully capture any of these terrifying weapons. However, the results are still positive: either a piece has been taken off the game board, or a location be scratched from the list... [GBW-CP6] Assaulting "Hotel" "Command, Hotel has been found, with no one at the front desk." [GBW-CP6] Assaulting "Hotel" [GBW-CP6] Assaulting "Hotel" "Command, we're in the penthouse suite!"

Three Tyeraian troops in police disguise ride towards the weapons test site Echo. The soldiers inside thinking them to be here for the inspection open the gate. As this happens multiple Tyeraian troops come in from different directions. The man in charge of the base walks towards the police officer. He asks him for the secret pass code He responds with "Your all dead unless you show me where the nuke is!" After he said that a battle broke out. It was only do to the surprise of the attack and the hidden troops surrounding the base. After the Xenor troops were either killed or captured they went inside the cave.

Campaign 06 - Deland Republic - Kilo Naval Base Map : Studica Grid : E9 On the hunt for Weapons of Mass Destruction, the Kilo Naval Base of the Xenor Navy was an objective The Deland Republic could not leave out of control ! It was decided to take on the base and secure the safe it contains as it could protect some WMDs, acording to the SoF intel the high command received ! The only problem was the SAM launcher protecting the Kilo base. The facility being well protected by its position incorporated inside a cliff, the only good access viable was to strike by air but the Missiles could shot down any aircraft passing by. So, the high command decided to send F. Al'Hadrin team to shot down the missile control by sending them diving through the only soft spot they could find : a delivery way built inside the cliff itself. The little diving team reached the cliff in no time and rushed upon the few guards quite quickly. The SAM was no more than an inoffensive decoration on the roof of the Naval Base. Then, a black shadow passed upon the facility... In no time, a paradropping team was launched from the aircraft and they fell upon the heads of the desoriented Xenor soldiers. Once the Base Commander down, the Xenor forces surrendered and the Kilo Naval Base was under the Paradrop control. The safe was secured and it was up to the Major leading the Paradroppping team to open it to confirm (or not) the SoF informations. Were there any WMDs in this base ? Hope you'll like this one ! It is so far the best (and hardest) rockwork I've ever tryed ! Quite piece consuming but the result worth it IMO ! Don't hesitate to tell me what do you think of it in the comments !

Location: Xenor Military Base GreenFor Designation: Alpha Time: 0800 Hours Recently, the 115th RRC was dissolved and its platoons assigned to different Companies. My platoon landed in the 1st Company 2nd Division of the PAF (Plighian Armed Forces) and that company happened to be a part of the first assault on Xenor positions. Before our initial assault, we were paired up with some mounted infantry. Our plan was to attack just around dawn but there was an error in logistics and we didn't move out until 0800 hrs. We moved into position on the east side of the compound, and after a tank round took out the wall our forces pushed forward. We advanced forward with an M113 apc providing cover for our front. GBW - CP6 by ODA 401, on Flickr We were about 15 feet from the wall when I heard the Commander open up with his mounted M2HB (I later found out he had sighted some Xenor soldiers with AT weaponry). GBW - CP6 by ODA 401, on Flickr As soon as M2HB stopped firing, our Sergeant gave the order to fan out. Sgt Anders: " Fan Out Now, get to the wall as fast as you can! We need to get out of the Kill Zone!" GBW - CP6 by ODA 401, on Flickr We had no Idea how many Xenorians we were going to come in contact with, but we met with surprisingly low resistance. The M113 crew had decided to stay back for fear of another AT threat but gave us covering fire as we pressed forward. The enemy was few in number but they had the firepower to fend us off. GBW - CP6 by ODA 401, on Flickr We managed to get to the wall, but we took some casualties in the process. GBW - CP6 by ODA 401, on Flickr Our squad medic stayed behind to help the wounded.

GBW - CP6 by ODA 401, on Flickr After it went off, we stormed through the hole and took out any remaining enemy soldiers. GBW - CP6 by ODA 401, on Flickr GBW - CP6 by ODA 401, on Flickr With my adrenaline pumping on overdrive I felt that we had just won the battle, but we had only gotten through the outer defenses. We still had to fight through the rest of the base and hopefully find the WMD that our intelligence had said "might" be there. We had N.E.S.T teams on standby and we were all equipt with NBC suits and masks, but for all we knew they had already moved it to another location.

Campaign 7- Failed State The RON and COAC Forces failed to secure all of the military installations in Xenor. They are both scrambling to secure the 3 remaining sites and engage each other on the battlefield. Sites Lima, Oscar, and Papa were not cleared by either side. Lima and Oscar are both clear of Nukes, but Xenor military personnel are still deemed a threat, though they have lost their leadership and have largely disbanded. In the shuffle, it is suspected that Xenor military personnel detonated a tactical nuclear weapon in the city of Haams outside of site Papa. Though small in size, the nuke did significant damage to the city. The staging COAC AND RON forces preparing to battle inside the city are now taking Nuclear Fallout precautions. Xenor military personnel have evacuated site Papa due to the engulfing fallout. Militaries from COAC and RON Nations arrived in haste to all 3 locations. The stage was now set for the largest battle of the war so far!

Our forces started the attack on the east side of a Xenor Military base, callsign: Oscar. Intel had confirmed that there were no WMDs on the base so we took no precautionary measures and shelled the heck out of that base before any soldier got anywhere near the base. Once the shelling stopped, we were sent in to mop up the remaining Xenorian soldiers. Our squad was placed in reserve and we didn't go in until we were ordered to aid a mounted-infantry unit that had come under heavy fire. We arrived onsite and saw that the enemy had hit the M113 with an RPG which had knocked out the cat-tracks, making it roll into and overturn in a large crater caused by one of our artillery barrages. Sgt. Anders immediately took hold of the situation, ordering us into our positions so we could cover the wounded while our medic began to treat them.

Grid F10 (Studica) – R10 (World) Lizzie Jennings, James´ wife, had met her husband again after he did a good job on site Mike. He facilitated a raid on a Science Centre to check the existence of WMDs, which were found. But after this operation they had to keep on gathering information from the Servants of Freedom. Lizzie knows a small restaurant in South Bay, close to site Oscar, where SoF members usually meet between them. And she saw something…strange. Days ago, James was able to place a small microphone and they retrieved this conversation: “The ship departs next Monday. I will come tomorrow and give you a medicine I hope you won´t have to use.

The Great Brick War Catalyst Part I More than two decades ago the countries of Filace and Briolui worked on a joint project to build a highly advanced radar station with early warning capabilities for both aircraft and missiles. The site has been vigorously updated throughout the years to stay ahead of the technological curve. Designated the "Don-2N Site", the facility is maintained by a Civilian contractor team and a small security force from Filace though it sits deep inside Briolui territory in the mountains. Filace was the primary financier for the site, so they run the facility and share the information with Briolui. Guard 1: What do you think about everything going on right now in the new? Guard 2: Doesn't really matter what I think. Egos and agendas are a higher priority than peace apparently. Guard 1: Yeah, I don't know. That's kinda..... Hey do you hear that? Guard 2: *INTO RADIO* Base, this is Guard. We're hearing something approaching out here. Can you confirm anything on the scope? *LOUD SPEAKER* - Briolui ID'd convoy approaching. Guard 1: What is going on now? Guard 2: I can only imagine. A convoy with several troops, a truck, and a tank are spotted by the guards on the road toward the Radar Station. They are all brandishing weapons at the ready. Colonel Dillon: Bringing up the General now. General Shaw: You can stand easy guards, we are looking to do this the easy way. Guard 2: Do what exactly, General? General Shaw: Briolui is assuming control of this facility. All Military and Civilian Personnel who comprise this facility from Filace are to be evacuated out on transport vehicles we have arriving momentarily. Guard 1: You're not assuming control, you're forcing us out. General Shaw: You can word it however you'd like soldier, this facility now belongs to Briolui. Upon your return to Filace, you can tell your commanders we intend to keep it. Colonel! Colonel Dillon: Yes General? General Shaw: See to it personally that these people are delivered safely. We wouldn't want to spark a powder keg over something as trivial as this. Coming Soon! Interested in helping run the game? PM me. -
Campaign 2 Into the Storm Map Name: Studica Grid F6 Time: 0130 Hours Forces of the elite Refnor Special Boat Service launched down river. Their Mission was to take out a small SAM Site to clear the skies for an aerial bombardment from Filace that was was to follow shortly there after. Immediately, upon coming up on the beach, the team came under fire from a defensive position at the post. The team was scattered. Some lay dead on the beach head.... Others crawled into the woods to try and regroup. The team was then engaged by a defensive force at the SAM Site's control bunker. The Toohati forces captured several of the Refnor Team Members and gathered their wounded. In the early hours of the morning the COAC countries launched a surprise offensive campaign against the RON. Tactical locations were bombarded from the Sea and the Air to make way for a ground assault. Local News Initial losses for both sides have not been reported as correspondents have been ordered off the air during this initial phase of the invasion to prevent any information from getting out which could hurt either side. Campaign Guidelines Countries that are part of the COAC are to build MOCs depicting their side assaulting fortified positions of the enemy. Countries in the RON are to build MOCs depicting their side defending an assault. Nations that currently have not declared war will need to do so before submitting combat builds or find other creative ways to build something to fit in with the guidelines. This a combat based game so if you're holding out from declaring war, you're really missing the point. All builds must be posted as a new topic in the “Great Brick War” subforum, the title prefixed by, "(GBW- CP2)" followed by the Country you’re representing, and then your MOC’s Title. Example "(GBW- CP2) Filace - Fueling up the Jets") Being that this is the first combat campaign, a strong emphasis should be placed on depicting your country's military forces, battle tactics, etc. Neither side should show their forces definitively destroying the opposition. Showing successes is okay, but not total domination. The winners of the campaign will be decided based on the points awarded from judging. This means if your team doesn't score well, it's possible for your forces to be beaten back. There is no minimum or maximum size requirement for this build. All LDD Builds must be labeled- Example: (GBW- CP2) Country - Title of build (LDD) All builds must be new MOC’s and not prior builds. Photo Editing is to be kept to a minimum with only real edits of lighting and color correction. No special effects. Players may crop one picture of their MOC onto a background picture to help with their landscape if they’d like. Pictures cannot be bigger than 800x600 Players may post a link to an offsite host such as Flickr where Higher Res pics are located. Be cool and share your photos in the GBW Flickr Group! Please refer to the General Rules Topic for limitations based on your Point Level. Upon completion, players must also post a link to their build in the AAR Thread as well letting the judges know that it is eligible for scoring. Campaign Duration 4/28/17 - 5/31/17 All builds will not be finalized until the closing date for the campaign. Players can edit their posts up until that point. As long as it is 5/30/17 somewhere in the world, you can submit. Use this as a deadline https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/usa/baker-island The Outcome The winning team will have an opportunity to choose a location where they would like to concentrate troops and launch an offensive. All players who participate will be awarded the points they earn for each build. The winning team will earn this tag. Players can have only (1) GBW Tag in their profile at a time. If you would like this tag, please let a GBW Staff Member know. All Questions Regarding Campaign 2 should be Posted in THIS TOPIC.

The Great Brick War Catalyst Part III- Operation Jackal Preparation has begun for an Operation in response to the Briolui Radar Station Seizure. Filace is cool and calm, but also understands it is now under a lot of pressure with the additional capture of Toohati operatives working on their side of the border to disrupt their way of life. Though Brioului and Toohati have yet to formally declare war, Filace believes they will wait until just before they are ready to strike. Filace has put together a small team of crack soldiers to cross the border into Briolui and begin the first stage of a multi part Operation titled "Jackal" to even the odds. Electronic AWACs indicates that Briolui has not gotten the Radar Site up and full functional since taking it over. One of the civilian contractors informed the intelligence service that they disabled a system prior to being evacuated. Briolui will fix the problem, but it is taking them some time. Map Name: Studica - Grid E4- 2 Miles from the Border to Briolui- 2200 Hours Nightstalker Pilot: Base, this is Nightstalker 3-4, we are dropping the Cobra package now. Cobra Team, you're up. 20 seconds to drop. This one's gonna be tight. Cobra 1: Roger that. Let's go guys, get to the ramp. Cobra 2: Damn! Look at how close those trees are! Cobra 3: These pilots sure have a big pair of.... CUTTING IN Nightstalker Pilot: 10 Seconds to Ground. Hold On! We are doing a quick touch and go. Cobra 1: Roger. Let's go! Nightstalker Pilot: Touchdown. GO! GO! GO! Good luck boys! Cobra 3: We are all off and clear Nightstalker 3-4. Thanks for the ride. Cobra 2: Lets get to that tree line. The team broke into the jungle to get out of the open. Though still in friendly territory, the team wanted to remain undetected by both friend and foe so they traveled only by night. They had a long journey ahead of them which would last a few days. This was not a race, it was a marathon. The team switched over to secure internal comm channels and use throat microphones to communicate. Cobra 1: 3 this is 1, how's our rear looking? Cobra 3: Rear looks good. She must work out. Cobra 1: This is me laughing 3...... Cobra 3: Rear is all clear 1. It's getting a good look at this damn heavy Laser Designator. Cobra 2: How long we going tonight 1? Cobra 1: At a minimum we're crossing that border tonight. Radio Silence unless we run into something from here on out. The team comfortably made it across the border and was on high alert. The south central portion of Grid E4 has a massive lake in it. The team trekked through the night right up until about 0400 Hours and false dawn quickly approached. The Cobra team skirted along the lake a bit before setting up their NDP (Night Defensive Position). The team circled the NDP twice to make sure they were alone. The team went down for the day and took shifts sleeping and eating. Well inside enemy territory, everyone was on high alert. Before moving out, Cobra 1 called in a SITREP to home base. Cobra 1: Base, this is Cobra. How copy over. Crackling Radio: We have you loud and clear Cobra. What is your status? Over. Cobra 1: We are proceeding to Rally Point 1 in Grid E5 and will be there before First Light. Crackling Radio: Roger Cobra. Be advised, Phase 2 of Operation Jackal will be in motion at that time. It is imperative that you relay any issues in a timely manner so we can abort if necessary. Satellite scans indicate you should have little to no interaction with others before reaching the target. Cobra 1: Solid Copy on your last Base. Cobra 1 Out. The team moved out and started Night 2 of their journey. Though they had no encounters, the terrain proved to be quite difficult as they gained elevation. The vegetation was thick and overgrown drastically slowing the teams progress. By the time they found a suitable position to go quiet for the day hours, they were exhausted and in need of a break. Similar to the day before, the team slept and ate in shifts only this time it was abit of a heavier sleep. Cobra had only a few more miles to cover this evening. Before moving out, Cobra 1 again called in a SITREP Cobra 1: Base this is Cobra over. Crackling Radio: We have you Cobra. Status Check. Cobra 1: We succeeded in hitting rally point 1 last night. No signs of detection. We are (3) miles from our final position. As of now Jackal is a go. Any update? Crackling Radio: Good to hear Cobra. Jackal Phase 2 is in motion. Switch to secure comm channel Charlie after this transmission for tomorrow evening to make your SITREP. We will be joined by another contact, Callsign Gunslinger. How Copy. Over. Cobra 1: Cobra confirms. Switching to Secure Channel Charlie after transmission. Will make contact with Gunslinger. Crackling Radio: Cobra be advised. Today's satellite scans indicate you boys are not alone out there. Vehicle patrols are now occurring in your neck of the woods. Be on Alert. Confirm when you are in position of the target. Over. Cobra 1: Copy last transmission. Cobra will confirm target on arrival base. Cobra out.

The Great Brick War Catalyst Part 2 Along the southern border of Filace, a river runs from Briolui, through the Red Basin, continues on to Erotema, and flows out to the Ocean. The river borders several small towns just outside of an industrial district. Several areas in the district have been abandoned over the years as manufacturing jobs have moved into the more modern districts in the North. It has been rumored that Saboteur groups trained by the Toohati government have been utilizing the river to infiltrate this district and smuggle in resources to continue their campaign of sabotage throughout Filace. This is one of those facilities. Studica Map- Grid E4- Safe House 3- An abandoned warehouse in an industrial district of Filace. Bodie- Are we on schedule? Saboteur- Our team is finishing their final prep. We will be heading out to Rally Point 1 shortly. From there, we will cover our tracks and then make our way to the power plant. Bodie- I have more stops to make tonight. We're going to move the rest of this equipment to Safe House 5 after you depart and shut this facility down. We've been sent intel informing us that this site may be compromised. Saboteur- Compromised?! Bodie- Relax and do your job. Once your mission is complete, there will be a boat waiting for you at the first landing by the river to take you home. Make sure your men are all carrying their fake papers in case you are stopped. Several Miles Away... Captain Lucas- Final Checks. We're (3) Minutes Out. Sergeant Buck- We're hooking up the drop lines now. Sergeant Paulson- We have the power company on standby for your order sir. Meanwhile... Bodie- *OVER THE INTERCOM* We are departing this facility. Leave no traces beh... Sergeant Paulson- POWER IS OUT. Captain Lucas- Pilot! Bring us in a steady hover. Buck, drop the lines! Sergeant Buck- Lines are dropped. Putting a flashbang through the skylight now. Captain Lucas- Sentries outside are down. Lets Go! Lets Go! Saboteur- I CANT SEE! Sergeant Buck- We're inside moving to eliminate threats. Captain Lucas- *SCREAMING OVER THE GUNFIRE* Get Down Now! Bodie- Don't Shoot! DONT SHOOT! The battle comes to a close as quickly as it had started. Several Saboteurs lie dead, others subdued. Captain Lucas- I want this place fully scanned and documented. Sergeant Buck- Roger, photographing everything now sir. Sergeant Paulson- Sir, we have (2) of them restrained that were unharmed, a boat load of weapons, and maps. Something big was happening here. Sergeant Paulson- What are all of these points marked on this map? Bodie- *Stone Faced* Bodie Miller. Colonel, Toohati National Army. 47346. Captain Lucas- Army?.... What're you expecting POW Treatment like we're at war? Bodie- *Smirking* We are at war, Captain. Coming Soon! Interested in helping run the game? PM me.
