So, there's a small problem...
          	If, for some reason the SAR Cruiser story suddenly stops being updated than it is not due me running out of ideas and not able to finish the next chapter;
          	It is because the story is refusing to save said chapter during writing. That means, there's a chance that the story may abruptly ends if it refuses to be compliant. TO be clear, I have a LAN cable stuck to my PC and the Router is showing full bars, and the book still complaints about not having any internet access.
          	It is only this book alone. All the others I have either in draft or are finished aren't complaining, only this one.
          	I am trying my best and around 8 chapters are all ready to be published so don't worry for a few weeks at best.

@hepherd in fact, some of those stories may never see the light, including that one story.

@hepherd Well... One of my stories (yet to be released to the public) is over thirty chapters long and continuing. And no... I have no images inside said Word Docs. They eat too much space and Bytes. That one well over 15.000 KB, the others simply added up the numbers. And I said MORE THAN 50.000 KB.
          	  ...
          	  I have Aspergers, I have no friends (in real life), I play no games that anybody has in their Steam account, I HAVE NO STEAM ACCOUNT(!) and I am a bookworm with a wild mind for imagination.
          	  If I want something written down, I shall have written it.

Fab quick question. How large would the gallian armed forces be at the time of the UNEF intervention. Because well i estimate atless more then 150,000+ due to the gallian army having 80,000 at all times combined with their naval forces and military police. But it still much higher i just need some help to make gallian military organization a bit.

Commando_Kings

No need for the fandom i used that as research most of the time but thanks anyway.

@Commando_Kings lore-wise, Gallia had two Divisions worth of soldiers become combat-ineffective at the beginning of the invasion. In total, they had 80.000 soldiers, but lost around 5 to 10.000 soldiers of them. Those losses were refilled with militia. They also have the navy with 10.000 personnel and the MPs with another 2.000.
            Also, 92.000 military personnel in peace time conditions.
            Looking at losses, the mobilized militia; your number might be correct with the fact the even after the loss of the entire Main Corps at Randgriz due the Valkyria's "self-deletion" they had rebuilt the military quickly within two years to fend off the Revolutionaries.
            So yes, you may correct. As a little anecdote, I have given you the link to the fandom wiki about Gallias army (english), which sums it up a little better.

Hey Fab quick questions for shits and giggles. How would the imperials and federation react when they realise the UNEF was not one but more than 20 nations in the expeditionary force that had arrived with gallia and realising the legionnaires were just a standard infantry company back in their home world

FabMichGloe

@ Commando_Kings  The Federation will most likely have an aneyrism, realusing that the UNEF is more United than thei military force could ever be and that actual Superpowers are actively working together for a United cause instead of backstabbing each other every three seconds. Of course, the Hawks may think that them United make them easier to fall and divide but those populists won't tempt it lest they got the chance. 
            The Imperials?
            ...
            Similar but they would then realise that their doctrines of overwhelming force and number ain't working if the enemy is literally built to not only avoid such "drastic" measures in combat but is also able to essentially wipe the floor without any regards. The fact that multiple Superpowers are actively working together would make the Doves seek peace quicker while the Hawks might think (due them working together) that they aren't as strong as they project.

Don’t forget the superpowers being in the Expeditionary force

Fab i need help, how does the UNEF frontline troops call in an airstrike because well there's no satelite so there's basically no GPS and a flare or smoke is a last resort for me.

Commando_Kings

Didn't know that thanks

@Commando_Kings you do know that long-range radios work in a bandwidth and radiowave system, right? The radio waves bounce from the clouds or atmosphere down back onto the ground and then send rinse and repeat until they hit their receiver. Long range radio transmission is possible when the radio waves are reflected from the ionosphere. For this to happen, the frequency of the radio waves must be in the range. 8−25 MHz.
            For example, a 25-watt marine radio will roughly have a maximum range of 60 nautical miles (111 km) between antennas mounted on tall ships, but that same radio will only have a range of 5 nautical miles (9 km) between antennas mounted on small boats at sea level. 50 watts can do 30 miles.
            There are many manufacturers that sell FRS radios and all claim different maximum ranges, from around 20 to 35 miles. Despite this, all of these radios are constrained by the same regulations which restrict the transmission frequency and output power.
            VHF (Very High Frequency) and UHF (Ultra High Frequency) Radios: Used extensively for short- to medium-range communication, with limited long-range capabilities. HF (High Frequency) Radios: Enable global long-range communication via ionospheric propagation, making them ideal for SAR missions in remote areas.

Hey Fab quick question, will special forces be deloyed behind enemy lines for Reconnaissance, sabotage and to sown confusion amongst the Imperials. Now i know the risk with them being captured and their weapons taken also the fact that you lost one of the world's best Operators to a bunch of ww2 Knights sounds humaliating so i just want to make sure is it realistic enough.
          
          -Thanks again :)

FabMichGloe

@ Commando_Kings  obviously yes, though the operators wouldn't immediately begin to sow chaos and confusion but, at first, reconnoiter the field of battle in advance so that the troops and units that will engage the enemy know both the Terrain and the enemy's composition of troops and equipment. Sabotage, on the other hand, could be seen how the 422nd Penal Unit was used by the Gallians to destroy the long-range howitzer on the other side of the other side of the border; this is brute force Sabotage if you didn't know. Subtle ones would be to destroy rail lines and bridges, slowing down logistics and troop movements to a crawl, while also attacking border patrols and destroy small outposts and supply Depots, forcing the enemy to implement a more broader in-depth security system, though that would mean for them that they would have less troops available.

Hey Fab i need some help....again. I don't know realistically how the northern frontline should be close, will it be like 1-5 Miles or 5 to ten because well.....i'm just not great at thinking of frontlines especially for what i'm about to write.

Commando_Kings

Kinda misunderstood but it’ll help in the long run. I was asking about before the UNEF intervention but that could work

Commando_Kings

Hey Fab i need some help, should i keep it simple for the various Vehicles of the UNEF like don't have to detail their variants because i fear i might.....Make people's brain overloaded with information.

FabMichGloe

@Commando_Kings well... yeah, it may be the best call. Simply state them the speed, that it is armoured for what against and any potential firepower it could carry will be enough, else they gonna have an aneyrism, especially the ones who may invest largely to find discrepancies to insult you.
