firing from 15 ships for 9 hours as fast as they can. It's possible. OOC: Oh please, 800,000? 15 ships firing for 9 hours straight wouldn't fire off 800,000 rounds. Also, how the hell could Sparta get that much? I'd say more like 50,000, and that's pushing it.

The 400,000 troops have finished their 4th and final week of training and are being deployed accordingly
camps=5,000 men Platoon= 2 camps
Division= 2 Platoons
Brigade = 5 divisions
Army 4 Brigades
2 Brigades of 200,000(total) men are beeing sent to the front lines to fight the italians they are loaded with Austrian Rifles and Machine guns. the other 200,000 troops will go through 3 more weeks of training but if needed will be deployed.
Spartas attack: im going with 50,000 since thats what netherlands said
As shells came crashing in the sailors had nothing to do but take cover although most of them were safe there were still many casulties. the remaining sailors have been sent to the italian front to assist the army.
Casulties:1,532
Italian Front: as italians began to charge (im assumeing thats what your last post was correct me if im wrong) Austrians mowed them down with machine gun fire. But in order to keep accuracy they would fire bursts of 5-10 rounds so they can do the most damage. shells were again fired at the italians in hopes of devestating their army. more planes began to bomb the italians and mow them down with machine gun fire. 15,000 shells were fired and 500 little bombs were droped. with the advantage of cover from the austrians they should be able to push the italians back to the border. When the reinforcements arrived many war torn troops began to feel some what relieved. they new although the troops were poorly trained troops would be able to get the job done.
Casulties: 1,309
New force 246,000 troops.

The spartans set 15,000 men ashore from the transport ships. They steal from gunstores/armories and destroy rail lines and warehouses.

Buy the way, the smaller ships are still bringing in ammunition. The planes have returned and are straffing areas held by the saliors. The ships still fire except for a cruiser that has one of it's guns melted and has to be repaired. Men are being brought ashore in the smaller boats. These smaller boats have fixed trench morters on them.

as the sailors arrive the shore the sailors of Austrian Navy laugh at how stupid the Spartans are. It was common sense not to fire artillery during a landing. from their cover 9,000 Sailors fired upon the spartans with 50 Machine guns and the rest were rifles. From cover this would be a turkey shoot since they are fireing at targets in an open area. and even with the Shells hitting it could not break their spirits.

9,000? It was 7000 and then over a thousand and a half got killed, that make 6,500. Tired soldiers, no this is the turkey shoot.
The two headmen in every boat fires his rifle. The morter fire from the boats start, the planes now see exactly where to shoot and start strafing large groups. The navy can now turn it's guns to the Austrians positions and finally shell them out. As the men hit the beach they start firing at the astrian's who are spread out over the mile long LZ. This was easierthen they thought it would be.

the remaining ships have been ordered to do one thing for their nation. With no more shells to fire they were ordered to cruise strait on through the smaller patrol boats and enemy destroyers. a total of 7,000 Fighting sailors remained undercover in th ports they had abondond ship during the attacks. from the other ships another 8,000 got off and other crew began to steer right into the enemey ships hopeing to damage them as much as possible wow, didn't see the last 8,000. Still got more men thou, your men still got hit hard. We have veterans your guys arn't so they arn't half as good. They still have a lot of cover. Casualties: 3,500 You aren't heavily fortified this is nothing like D-day. My men are trained for groud combat, yours are not.

The blockades at Albania are lifting and the ships are sailing north and straffing Astrian Coastline. Attack teams are being assembled and being put on transports.

OOC: How could you not retreat? there are 200,000 Italians attacking a morale shattered 70,000. Stop godmodding by adding all these extra troops and being totally unrealistic.
IC: Italian Reserve (185,000 Vetrens from Greek/Etheopian Wars) have arrived and are deploying in the trenches.
In addition they have brought along the tanks not only assigned for them, but the divisions attacking.
Total: 77 Fiats

OOC: I don't know about a full shattering retreat, but yes, there would be much more casualties than than 1,300. Considering the ratio, I'd say around 10-30,000 men, and you would probably be pushed back a few miles.
