OCC: Your attack was not "light" by numerical standards, its light in the sense that its only lasting for a realtivley short amount of time. I direct you to the Battle of the Somme.
As for an anti air gun, I was unaware we weren't able to develope a friggin thing. To top that, you are using mainly mortars as posted, not long range artillery guns.
In that case, you really should not have a plane with a machine gun. That was created out of neccesity. Seeing as Im not fielding a large airforce, you have no reason to even have such a plane.
But to be frank, I don't enjoy how this RP is going. So I'm going to just skip this part, and let you take Belgium. Then I can have fun doing what I wanted to do from the beggining.
IC: The nation of Belgium, seeing it cannot possibly win without allied support, surrenders to the nation of Germany.
Of course, all throughout Belgium the nation had been flooded with literally hundreds of thousands of guns, grenades...and most importantly, posinous gas's... The Germans could be sure there would be an extensive terrorist network set up. Already, guns were spilling over the boarder in all directions.

OOC: It's stated in the rules that you cannot have technology that didn't exist in your country. Unless you buy that technology from another country. Thus, you do not have flak cannons (I think, pretty sure) and you dont have poison gas. I also need to know the numbers later on of the militia's weapons, ect.

As the news of the Belgian surrender rushed around the country, action was taken right away. Working outside of goverment orders, soldiers not on the line immediatley fled from the line. Returning home, piles of guns formed in the streets, soldiers in outrage of even fighting the war.
Others however, began to pick up the guns. Some people taking up to 10 guns, they began to hide them throughout the country side. Several terrorist cells even took stockpiles of guns, and mortars, and began seting up their network without hessitation.
Artillery gun shells were pillgaged from the guns. Fuses, shells, gunpowder. Anything really. People had their own reasons for doing things. Many would sell them on the black market, some wanted them for their protection, some for use against the Germans. With the Police Force in dissarry, there was nothing to stop the Belgian people. Thousands of people rioted in the streets, smashing into armories. By the time the German people reached the coast of Belgium, the armories would be all but empty.
To deny the Germans military supplies, the complete destruction of artillery units, as well as other immovable military units has begun. Those factories not already bombed by German forces have been not only destroyed in the craze, have been actually bombed using artillery guns, which are then destroyed themselfs.
Basically, the Belgian goverment had cried out in outrage and submited to the German goverment at once. By surrendering to the Germans, they had dis-honored Belgium. But by surrendering before the Germans were in the interiror of Belgium, they had effectviley flooded the market with an all but unlimited supply of rifles. No doubt the Germans WOULD collect a LARGE numbers of the equipment right away, pherhaps 70-80 pct. However, that lasting 20 pct would be enough to fuel an army of 50,000 men (poorly). Only time would tell what lay in store for Belgium.
Reports of the crops being burned and the fields salted begin to reach German officals ears...
OCC: Figure the market was just flooded with 600,000 Belgian guns total. Bout' 100,000 of those are on troops at the front, which you'll no doubt collect. Another 300 will be taken within days, and you'll come across 100 within the month easy. The rest I'll have to see what happens.

BERLIN, GERMANY
DATE-TIME 9-17 21:00 COPY 01 OF 01 OF Belgium surrender and militia threat- REPORT SEND TO: KAISER WILHELM II BY Mattias Shoemaker Offical corespondant of German Intelligence to the Reichstag.
This letter is to notify and confirm Belgian surrender to German forces. To maintain full control over the events all reserve-troops were put under the direct command of Generals themselfs and not under the command of Crown Prince Wilhelm.
German forces entered Belgium with an artillery bombardment. The long-distance-guns kept all supply-routes under fire to keep Belgium from bringing in substantial numbers of reinforcements. Roughly 12 hours later, a Belgian counter-attack was launched on German artillery forces. German losses were minor to that of Belgian losses. German losses were insignificant to any real threat to German victory over Belgium.
Following the second bombardment and infantry invasion of secondary Belgian defenses, Belgian forces were in full retreat. German forces set up in Belgian trenches and collected weapons left behind.
Following the retreat, the Belgian government issued the surrender to German forces. Just after the surrender, massive amounts of weapons hit the shelves in local Belgian stores, making the average population aquire small arms with ease. Although the average Belgian would not be able to afford substantial amounts of firearms, the threat is still imminent.
Intelligence reports show that various Belgian militia's have sprouted. Although they are very poorly equiped and have no training or previous experience, it is still an imminent threat to German forces. Manifold Intelligence reports of the scorching of crops and the salting of fields suggests hostile action towards German forces as they enter cities.
Militia may very well be garrisoned in Belgian cities and towns. Procede with caution. Generals await the Kaiser's command on the entering of Belgium and the taking of it's capital; Brussels. Intel suggests the main bulk of the militia will be garrisoned in Brussels and it's perimeter.
To procede with the schlieffen plan; annex Belgium and move into France must be ordered by the Kaiser and the Kaiser alone. Generals await your command..
------------
The Kaiser looks off the report sent to him from German Intelligence. He was surprised that he was able to take Belgium without much losses. Although the losses on the German side were quite large, it's insignificant to the plan as a whole. Although the Kaiser worried that the occupation of Belgium might be a difficult one for a while; the militia would be easily defeated as they go against trained, well equiped and experienced German soldiers.
The Kaiser looked at his main advisors and Generals sitting before him on the large table. This meeting had been called following the Belgian surrender to disscuss battle plans and the issues of Belgian civilians taking up arms. The Kaiser was now an experienced man as he went up against a city full of armed militia in Luxembourg; but the way of desposal of the anti-german militias was quite ruthless and violent. He had shelled Luxembourg with hundreds if not thousands of peices of arillery.
The Kaiser new the militias were poorly equiped and wern't familiar with the new anti-air systems. He just realised this when one of his advisors was speaking about how the militias would just surrender when they see the shear numbers and power of the German forces.
"Volker, that's enough. I have thought of a more ruthless and damaging way to defeat these insignifigant subhumans, but it will get the job done." Said the Kaiser as he paused to let the people at the meeting take in what he had just said before continuing.
"As you all know, our intelligence has devised a new plane that can carry a payload of bombs to it's target with the air cover of machine guns." commented the Kaiser, and he was then interupted by one of his most trusted Generals.
"Ah yes, good plan sir. We attack the sons of bitches while they're still learning to turn the safty off of a rifle, and we hit them hard! Those unintelligible poppycock-peddlers aren't worth more than a fart from a flea's ass! They still can't operate a gun properly let alone anti-air! I say we do it sir! The General said enthusiastically.
The Kaiser couldn't help but chuckle to the General's sense of humor to the subject. But the General was right, the Belgian militia couldn't withstand an air raid. And thus is why the Kaiser had ordered it. Even though the guns went into shipment, it was too late, Belgium possibly couldn't ship those guns to the markets and sell the bulk of them with in about 12 hours. -------------
OOC: This post happens the same time as my military action, but I'll post that later because I didn't want it in one large post, probably wouldn't fit.

OOC: Like I said, there is no government controling your forces besides Italy or Sparta. Both would be either neutral on the situation or hostile towards the French as Italy is an ally of Germany. Are you familiar with the french government in Exile During WW2. Greeces government in exile is the same damn deal. We have a small amount of troops that we can do stuff with and Greece only surrendered mainland of Greece. After the Surrender I bought land from britian to set up my new Government this was from Britian. (see the civilian thread stealing gold from the treasury.) This was so I could keep a small army incase of the overthrow of Sparta and Italy by the suppose to be allies of Greece (laugh). This was accepted in the Surrender terms. I resently posted that I was sending 500 men in under the command of my ex-military advisor (whao aslo escaped.) Because I had an Alliance deal. Even before this thread the exile government sent men to train the Eithopian army. To rebel against Bulgeria, to negotiate deals in by britian. Only minor roles, there are men loyal to the old government. This practice is common and has been seen many times. Tiawan was one, the French gov't in exile in Britian during WW2, this has dated back for hundreds of years. These examples are common knowledge. Japan even had a small one for some time but that callapsed. In WW2 the Free French marched the rements of there armies in to paris. www.worldhistory.com/wiki/G/Government-in-exile.htm

[Telegram] [Send to: Greek Command] [From: Berlin, Germany]
[To whom it may concern,
Generals and Commanders of the Greek army in exile. We have recieved intel reports of your movements in France. We warn you, any action taken toward German forces could lead to your destruction. You numbers are too insignifigant to impact any substantial loss on the German side. We have no quarrel with the Greek as of this moment. So we urge the Greeks to make the right decision in staying neutral on the subject and head for safe land. Or else they will be eliminated by the German forces.]
-------------------
40 Gotha Bomb Droppers along with 20 German fighters are inbound for Namur, Belgium. They will reach the city in 5 RP hours.

OCC: Actually, most of my milita will not be located in Brussels. The average person living in Brussels is gonna be richer, and have a higher way of life. Thus, they will continue to opperate, German, Belgium, or Mexican control. The main Milita will be located more broadley. I didn't really plan to have a particular center for the rebbellion groups. In fact, I didn't plan on them to work too closley together. Sorta different cells.
However, if you want a target to hit, why don't we go with Namur. For the sake of you bombing something after that post, we'll say that you have 400 Partisans located in that area. Of course, you could go ahead and still bomb Brussles for the symbolic nature of it, or you could edit it for Namur.
Finally, I'd just like to point out that several of the Partisans would be trained military officals. Remember, you got a disbanded army running around, with all the papers on them effectivley destroyed. But just in case...
IC: The Belgian High Command did what it could with the surrender. All documents (And I mean ALL) of even slight importance were destroyed. This includes roosters, military locations, depots, the works. The Germans will have to go about finding that themselfs. Then, the Belgian General, General Frankfe gathered himself in full Class A uniform, and taking his sidearm, made his way to the German high command, flying under a white flag.
The Belgian Army has been offically disbanded.

OCC: This takes place before the other terrorist actions.
IC: As the German planes made their way towards Namur, the Partisans in the area were none the wiser for quite some time. These Partisans were the hasty, nationalist type. They had proclaimed Namur a city of Belgium, not Germany, and now they would pay the price. The residents here simply were not fighting the war as it should be. The war had to be fought carefully and slowly, and pherhaps one day the attrition would be too much for Germany, and they would leave Belgium in peace, or at least begin granting Belgium some rights.
But back to Namur. As the planes roar filled the skies, the Partisans ran from the streets, rifles in hands. Runing onto rooftops and in the streets, there wasn't a single military man in their ranks.
As the planes appraoched the town, the Partisans opened up with...small arms fire? Over 45 people on rooftops opened up with guns ranging from Belgium military models to pistols. Within 20 seconds, half their numbers were attempting to figure out why the rifle had jammed.
It was futile anyway. It would take lucky shots or an expert marksman to hit the plane, and any real marksman would know to use his skills in a more esponiage related way.
As the planes approached the city, the villagers continued to fire. Within 20 minutes, the village, along with 90 percent of its residents were no more.
The Belgium Liberation Army, a name Germany would come to know all to well immediatley began playing on this. Word was sent out of the destroying of the city, and through the use of some "slight" modification to the story, the rebbellious city would be according to the BLA, a "peaceful, complacent town of children and women".

As soon as word got into German High Command that the main City of rebels was 90% destroyed, they decided to go ahead and move in. The main bulk of the threat was now crumbling. The rebel's numbers should be too insignifigant to impact a real threat in the German's sucsess. It was assumed by German high command that the Belgian rebels would know that resistance was futile.
As soon as the bombers were done unloading their payloads, they turned around and headed back for the fatherland.
The two invasion forces (see map in "Shleiffen Plan") continued through Belgium. Following them is the force that will be occupying Belgium, the main invasion forces were a part of the Schlieffen Plan and would continue on into France.
Forces to occupy Belgium (headed for major cities) 500,000 Soldiers 500 Artillery peices 10 Bi-planes 50 Tanks
-----------
The bulk of the defenses on the Belgium-German border are now moving into Belgium and will set up lines of defense (Trenches, ect.) on the Belgium-France border.
They make up the following 250,000 Soldiers 1,000 Artillery peices 20 Fighter planes
--------
The annexation of Belgium was official.
OOC: Sorry for the crappy post, I'm half asleep over here. I promise really good posts later on.
