His Royal Highness Watched as the Tieopian Planes fled from his aerial armada, Pleased that the radar guided gunnery worked well. As he gazed out of the window of the royal sky yacht he saw the new flagship come into view. The nelson class Super-battle-carrier is the first in a new class of super airships commissioned and heralds a new age of aerial warfare. Over 1km Long and armed with 20 Quintuple (5 barrels) 18inch gun turrets (4 Forward 4 aft top deck, 4 forward 4 aft Underside, 4 along each side of the main superstructure) She is by far the most heavily armed vessel sea or sky borne ever commissioned. Running along the spine of the ship hidden by the massive gun turrets is the ships runway and hanger bays which hold 150 ScarFowl Combi(half and half) Piston-Jet fighters. As if that wasn't enough to deter aerial assault, she is also armed with 50 5inch Dual-purpose(Anti-air anti Ship) guns and at least 200 guns range in calibre from 40 mm bofors guns to 15 mm rapid firing machine guns. As far as his majesty was concerned this was the pinnacle of Magna Brittania Might and nothing could hope to stand against it. However both he and the designers had missed one fatal flaw. If a fighter plane flew head on directly into the hanger bay and dropped delayed action bombs, the resulting explosion would break the ship in two and would also detonate its prototype fission reactor causing a Huge explosion that would destroy both it and it's escort fleet.
The final Showdown is coming, both sides know it. It all comes down to one final aerial engagement over the capital of Tieopia. If the allies win Magna Britannia air-fleet and Emperor are destroyed in one swoop and the empire crumbles into nuclear civil war. But if magna Britannia wins than the massacre will be near endless and billions will die in the fiery inferno that will consume the world. So no Pressure guys.
OCC Sorry to build up the pressure but I got writing and i couldn't stop. The ideas just kept flowing out. Also Guys lets make this battle as detailed and epic as we can. Weave in stories of individual pilots, soldiers, civilians and sailors on all sides. Lets make this an RP finale to remember.
