This forum thread will be used to OOC plan out a limited conflict between Lourenne and Kalistan, with Kazulia coming in on Lourenne's side in a limited basis.
The scope worked out so far is that Kalistan is upset that Lourenne is arming the Anantonese Ocean, which creates a security crisis for Kalistan, who is attempting to restore its military. Right now, Kalistan has next to no serviceable weapons, so Lourenne feels Kalistan's complaints are an irritant, and Kalistan is not justified in complaining about Lourenne's own security concerns, which it declares are in no way a threat to Kalistan.
Where we are right now: There might be a limited hot conflict that sparks from perhaps some sort of incident where either Kalistan attacks a Lourenne ship that gets too close to Kalistan's shores, or Lourenne fires on Kalistan first and sparks reaction. We haven't worked this out yet. Lourenne wants to have several naval battles, and Kalistan is down with this, but has expressed that realistically, the conflict will have to be very low level, given the inequality of power on both sides. Kalistan would like to limit combat deaths to 100 at most, but is willing to take the majority of these casualties. Eventually, Lourenne will invite Kalistan to talks that will resolve things, one way or another. Max in Kazulia would like to join the RP, and can possibly launch a limited response with Lourenne against Kalistani shipping/navy, or could serve as mediator if they don't want to join the combat.
We need to pass RP resolutions in our countries, but we can continue the war of words meanwhile in the Press. I will work up a draft RP resolution in Kalistan to satisfy the rules. Meanwhile, we can use this thread to plan the RP.
