I dream of giving birth to a child who will ask, "Mother, what was war?"

It is 2019. The Anean Continental War has ended two years ago. In those two years, Estovakia, after much rioting inside the country, allowed two independent movements to create a new nation and separate from Estovakia, one near the new Estovakian border, and one near the Emmerian border. Their names were Cartelian and Nerverak. Everything was peaceful for one year. Then, a coup overthrown Nerverak's democratic government and made it into a ruthless, horrible dictatorship. Nerverak then decides to claim more territory, starting with it's former peaceful partner, Cartelian...

Pilot! Welcome to the 86th Elite Air Wing and welcome to the United Cartelian Air Force, or UCAF for short. You were assigned to this elite air unit because of your talent and experience. You will start off with an standard
F-16C Fighting Falcon. As you complete missions, you may ask for new planes to fly. Godspeed, pilot. Godspeed.

Rules
These rules are to keep the roleplay under control. Do not break any of these rules, or else your action will be voided.
I. Do not shoot down any "MiG-(numbergoeshere)". There are no MiG's in Nerverak's Air Force.
II. If you choose to be an enemy (you can), do not powergame when fighting in the skies. Powergaming is when you are God, when you are not. An example is that a missile ALWAYS hits someone no matter what. Sometimes they evade it.
III. If you choose to be an enemy, your first plane is an
Boeing or
Lockheed Martin fighter jet of your choice.
IV. Sir Issac Newton once said,
"For every action is an equal and opposite reaction". You must follow along with that action if it is something that can affect the battle (for example, reinforcements)
V. Listen to the moderators.

Advice
To help new players have more fun, I have thought of a bunch of advice to help the newbies.1. Be detailed with your shoot-downs. Don't go "i shoot down 3 f-14s". Try and make it look detailed and immersive. For example: I come from behind of the plane, and fire my machine guns. It hits the fuel tanks and the plane goes down in a black fireball.2. Don't pretend you always miss the missiles, or machine guns. Try and get your plane damaged once in a while. You don't get kicked out of the RP if you die or get shot down. (If you die, you can make another character.)
3. There are ranks. But everyone except moderators and me start out as Second Lieutenant. Mods start at Lieutenant Colonel.4. Enjoy what you do! Be proud!
