Admiral Jellicoe had been waiting for this moment. It was his time for Revenge upon the Japanese. Last night Parliament and the Prime Minster gave the greenlight to attack Japan. Jellicoe was going to make those Japanese Bastards pay for killing his friend in Arnoy. He was to Command the 8th Asian British Fleet. He was anxious to send Okinawa to Hell.

West of Naha, Okinawa
The 8th British Fleet arrives onto the scene in the dim morning. Admiral Jellicoe takes one look at the place and says " They don't stand a chance!"
The Long-Rang ships focus all fire onto any position that a Coastal Battery seems likely. Destroyers and Crusisers stick around the Dreadnoughts and Battleships to stay out of range of the coastal batteries if any.
The men are woken up and told to load their rifles and prepare for battle. The Salt water is splashed onto them to wake them up. Coffee is given to them to keep a little more active.

Ooc: First maybe you should ask Russia.
Second if Russia gave me the thumbs up to attack you I would think they would allow you to defend yourself.

We condem these attacks on japan. you have attacked an ally. Although we feel the urge to jump in and fight ew will remain neutral. We strongly urge the British to fall back and stop these attacks on Japan.
Message to Japan:
We cannot tell you to not defend yourself. Fight back but Austrian troops will not aid in you're defense nor Britians invasion.
The Austrian Troops in Japan are pulling out of Japan to safty they are heading back to Austria until the war is over and Austrian troops can move back to their base.

A battery of 35 16" guns opens fire at the british ships, The
location of the british ships as been roughly calculated. And
ajustments are made accordingly from reports given from
observation balloon units. There is enough ammo to last
for 10min of firing, that would be 875 16" shells at the
British ships.
A garrison of 10.000 Infantry men has been fully mobelized
and 25.000 rifles are given to men that have already gone
through basic training. Artillery Shells are scarse as the
islands has not recieved the proper supply of those
becouse transports have not been sent becouse of the
British presence.
(could you please only rp the counter attack, I will then rp
the next move of my forces)

Fortunately for the British Force there was no way Coastal Batteries could mathc the Range of the Battleships or Dreadnoughts. And those that were in range readjusted positions and fired at the points where the shells were calucated to be fired from. The Destroyers have begun moving southeast.
Casualties:
1 sightly damaged Battleship. 15 Naval Personel.

Feel free to leave, I want Japan annexed and gone. OOC: So much for a good alliance IC: The German Government advises other MP members that there is no knowing which of Russia's allies will be betrayed by the menaces Russia and Great Britain, and you are probably welcome in joining the Berlin Pact. |
