Ok I need an awesome name for a battle.
or more a landing.
Background (stupidly detailed)
This battle, was the start of a war unlike any the particpating countries had ever seen before (including world war 1 and 2). but is small scale compaied to some wars happening. (there is a country that is Annexing over 100 squ km per day around this stage)
County A looses almost all its land due to a massive (>50m)sudden rais in sea leval.
Country B is an on a large island, the other half of wich is one of the many many teritories A had before the sea leval rise. Country B is a third world nation.
Country C was a Huge Island Nation, wich ends up broken into many large (and small) islands by raisign sea levels. it has a small number of troups in in Country B, providing humanitarian aid.
Now A invades B. C relises that B is a absolutly perfect staging point for A to invade it, and also is enraged by the attacks on it's humanitain reservists.
C happens to have 1 regiment (=4 companies =400 troups +100 support) of commandos. and it's only anfibios assult vessal free at this time.
These guy are really not needed to for clean up - C has most of it's army working on that, and this regiment has much much more combat exprience than anyone else in the army. and C only has the one vessal ready for immediate deployment.
So this One AAV and the Cdo regment, launch a counter invassion. Against the much larger (but far less well equipt or trained) force of A.
(stange coincience as they did this like 60 years before in WW2, same island even, different enemy though)
So they end up having to hold out almost on there own for ~12-18 months.
about 2-3 months in a regiment of paratroopers is dropped in.
10 months later the air force turns up, with there "Special" "infitration" regiment who are dropped and basically make A's side of the island it previosly shared with B all go to hell. (the air force had been facing a similar situation with A on another island, but they may have withdrawn as all they were protecting was an airbase, not the "stratigic Gateway to C")
<1 month after the lauch of the counter invasion, in Country C the "Defend the Homeland" rucuits start turning up, B lost 70% or it's population in the tidal wave/raising of see leval. but even still gets over 2.34 million applications for enlistments (thats 30% of the remaining pop), with is an inconvable number for it (it's total military forces at time of war start were 50 thousand))
after 12-18 months the two new Amphbous aussult vestel are done (they were started 12 moths before the sea level rise). One is sent with the country's other commando regiment (who finally managed to find all there reservists). the other with standard light infantry, whoes numbers a boosted by the rucruits. they continue farrying the infanty and recruits until war end.
The orignal AAV couldn't do it cos it was beached (possibly during this fist landing) to provide shelter and act as a HQ on aleast one occation and it was never designed to take counter fire (and was supposed to be replaced by the two new ships)).
So by the time the reinforcemnts arrive the original Cdo regiment and AAV have been through hell and back, and then straight back into hell again.
They are pretty much destroyed, the Regiment is removed from the Order of Battle and it's surviving member tranfered. A large number of them end up in the navy in then end (post war the army almost stops doing infantry regiments, due to the land mass gone - land infantry becomes the Navy's roll, and Amphobios Assualt becomes the everything)
In the end Country A actually stops existing, it's people are refugee's - haing next to no land.
It military is broken on this and one it's many other fronts.
The reminants are absorbed into to a International Force that goes around and crushs most of the wars around the world, the enforces that peace.
Really that backgound is was massive long, don't feel pressured to read it.
important stuff:
This is a Counter invasion.
It's an Anphibios Assualt beach landing.
it may or may not have actually hit resistance on the level of Suvla Bay (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Landing_at_Suvla_Bay). It certainly was more successful.
It was the start of a war like none before.
But it was one massive war amount a million.
(it was special for the countries involved though)
So what should the battle be named? or the Landing?
I need a fare few awesome names for battles through out that war actually.
I'm thinking things along the line of:
"The Silent Night"
"the Dawn assult"
"The Day of the Red Waters"
"the Hot Night"
"The First Landing"
Please blod names
or more a landing.
