Q: Alright, from what I see the agents are in position to open the gates. When the attack is launched, there will be no turning back.
OOC: Now I just need to remember how I was gonna organize it. I think all RP with a constant war counter each turn, 5 vs. 5 deaths, with equal bonuses.
I could make this really long-winded and dramatic, but since we're all getting impatient...
*The agents open the gates and the massive, unparalleled Shadowlorian military begins its offense. As the ground troops stage an amphibious landing, Lord Shadow is on his flagship in the gulf of Mexico, directing the naval and air bombardments.*
Lord Shadow:FOR NARNI- uh, whoops, hehe, I mean, uh, FOR SHADOWLORIA!

I have completely forgotten where we were. We were about to escort Qwerty to the center of the Nonja HQ, right? I'm not sure how I was planning on doing this, but I think it involved battling a certain number of armies per turn or somesuch. We can skip the "city" battle stage and just RP our way through the central base itself. Anyone remember how many total armies there are attacking? I know how many Shadowlorians there are, but how many UPN forces?
The citizens of the ULS, under the political rule of the Tenktinites, are watching this battle taking place live on the good old TV, broadcast courtesy of KNN, which has stubbornly staved off attempts at a name change through every governmental overhaul. Due to the pivotal nature of this, the report is being broadcast on hundreds of TV screens set up in Aitant Square where once a great uprising was spurred by nation-wide unrest.
Several citizens unfold a giant banner in the square, reading, "GIVE EM HELL, SHADOWLORIA!"
I am the restless haunt of DBF.
I'm in ur walls, eetin' ur pilloes! So get away from mah corn! I'm in ur cornfield, WHISPERING IN UR EARS!!!
The allied forces against Nonjas have stolen VIROS and Qwerty has reprogrammed it to defeat the Nonjas. Shadowlorian forces are about to storm the Nonja capital to give Qwerty a chance to plant the AI. Also, Qwerty's son ThePie was captured in Antarctica and is now contained somewhere, most likely in the capital, so a secondary goal is to rescue him.
So, that's resolved. Qwerty is guarded by Shadowlorian soldiers and is being rolled in, NF2 is fine but is still not quite human after his tesla water incident, and... yeah.
The door opens, Nonjas start attacking. War all around with Qwerty in the middle.
Q: This is really loud. I'm turning off my audio sensors. Just activate the adviser if you need me, I need to mentally prepare to implant VIROS.
The adviser deactivates and is attacked to the pod. NF2 (scientist, not a fighter) is basically helpless. I don't remember, is TSL in this group?
After watching the NGI Finale once again yesterday and having some good laughs, I want to finish this more than ever. So let's get started before I have second thoughts.
Okay, let's skip this screwing around and cut to the fighting.
The group is fighting its way through waves of oncoming Ns when it reaches a roadblock. An N with a rocket launcher is atop an impromptu wall in front of the road.
Q pops out of his advisor pod, takes a look around, and pops back in. The speakers on his containment box activate.
Q: I do suggest you do something about that guy. He could be a serious problem.
There are 200 Human, 100 Droid, and 15 HAT units from the UPN's side. That leaves the motherland with 28 human, 10 droid, and 0 HAT units. A bit risky, but it isn't like we'd coexist with the Nonjas anyway.
VISO "HAT-Droid Primary Link engaged. Initiating tactical calculators..."
VIROS "Yay!" "Kill them all..."
AESOP "Tactical calculators initiated. Priming Tesla Aqua Guns..."
Deep Thought "Tesla Aqua Guns primed. Initializing force fields..." SEVER "Force fields initialized. All systems ready for assault."
Nanobots *The materials the nanobots gathered are placed in piles, each organized by material and quality.*
*All nanobots but the hibernating ones are dead.* VIROS e^i *VIROS e^i is watching silently.* United Protectorate Stuff Map
Lord Shadow:*To Q* "Oh, that little cretin over there? He won't pose much of a problem."
*Lord Shadow takes cover with his team and mutters something into a radio. Ten seconds later, the Nonja suddenly jerks backward with the force of a 50 cal and falls off his perch.

Qwerty: Excellent. Now, let's hurry onwards. The armies can only keep the Nonjas off of us for so long. If we're defeated out there, it won't even matter how much strength we have in here. We're almost at the main base (about three posts), so we just have to keep fighting.
*The group continues epically fighting their way through hordes of Nonjas, while breaking the fourth wall and waiting for Qwerty to throw something new at them.*

Alright, we're at the... front entrance. You know, the giant closed blast doors. We're completely surrounded from behind, although the external armies are keeping us from being completely overwhelmed, and in front we have the gigantic underground megacompound that is the capital. Which is also sealed.
Lord Shadow:*"Damnit. We'll have to find another way to enter the base."
*The party works its way along the edge of the capital's walls, covered by the Shadowlorian army, looking for a possible entrance. Meanwhile, the two spies are still biding their time inside the Nonja capital, undercover in the Nonja uniforms.*

Aug- uh, I mean, Qwerty: Hang on, VIROS is sending me some signals. Ah, yes. Looks like VIROS still has some data on this place. The codes are outdated, but there's a back entrance we can take if we just head to torture bloc CII, level 10 and slip through an old series of lava pipes in their disused lava storage room. They're inactive, fortunately, but it's risky. We'd have to somehow sneak in there without anyone noticing us, or they could just reactivate the tubes.
OOC: Sorry, VIROS, but at this point I have to take your character actions into my own hands.
OOC: Ok, this is getting a little bit confusing because I'm unclear about what our situation looks like. Do you think you could draw me a simple diagram of what the base looks like, where our party is, where the Nonjas are, and where the Shadowlorian armies are? That would help a lot, thanks.
That'd be no fun at all. I'd rather have it go unended than skip to a lame ending like that.
Here's a map of the original Nonja base, ignoring the secondary island and the rest of the main island. The main base is just a larger version of that. What we're doing is heading into a nearby building, going down through a generic torture area (just a set of open pits of dangerous materials) and going into an empty one of those pits to crawl through a tunnel which lets out in the torture area of that main base. We're currently outside the main base, so some generic exterior fighting is needed. I think we can blast our way into that torture building easily enough, it shouldn't be occupied at present.
That's odd. I had this whole detailed post explaining it and it appears to have vanished. Oh well, I'll just summarize.
Here's a map of modern Mexico City:
That area in the middle with Alameda Central is approximately where the current central base is. The city is walled off now, with an exit to the south. We're on the south end of the central base, and to its north-west is the torture sector. In one of those blocks (one close to the central thing), we have to go down into an old tunnel that used to pipe lava. It takes us right into the torture chamber of the main base.
Lord Shadow:"I'm receiving a message from our intelligence sources out in the Gulf..."
*Lord Shadow pulls up the map on his really cool high-tech wristwatch. Pleased by this new information, he begins leading the party along the walls of the base towards the site of the tunnel.*
OOC: Stay tuned for a fully updated version of the world map. I can finally get around to it since it's a slow Saturday and I've got all the time in the world.
