[quote=@CmdrAlfieq] The explorers glanced over those people surprised and confused for a moment, then suddenly one of them has given a response of their arrival. "We're the Veilletes Expeditors of the Republic. Who and where are you from, strangers?" said by a Veilletes explorer from the south. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- An [s]wild[/s] Undefined Veilletes Battleship has arrived at the strait of Yahupi Confederacy. Nicknamed the VNMS (Veilletes National Marine's Ship) [b]Triotanor[/b], a modernized version of an old battleship class Erksterm was currently on a mission to scout the whole area by the orders from a provisional government of the Veilletes Republic (newly established southern colony). Armed with three triple-barreled 16.7 inches main guns and 8 dual-purposed secondary cannons at both of its sides, it would have been more than enough to threaten any city centers and ports near the coast. Equipped with one of the best rangefinders for a cannonade ship, making Triotanor the one of the most accurate cannon ship ever improvised and also can be effectively against any other ships of its class. During Triotanor's modernization, it is also fitted and reconfigured with a more powerful propulsion (hence a bigger smoke stack was easily presence at the ship) but sacrifice armor for becoming a fast & mobile battleship so they can relocate much faster if the situations were needed elsewhere. Additionally, few of the old AA guns were replaced with the CIWS turrets to protect against even moderate ships, combat patrols and jets that are armed with a targeted, tactical missiles & torpedoes. Unfortunately in its process of modernization, the VNMS Triotanor's seaplanes are reduced from 3 to 1, mainly because of replacing the seaplane hanger to an engine room for requisitioning a faster speed on its ship.

"Recon Airborne!" yelled by the petty officer at the deck close to the seaplane's catapult. [img]https://i.imgur.com/OlyYPSX.png[/img] "Take off successful! Proceed to do our intelligence report, over!" radioed by the recon pilot [img]https://i.imgur.com/JVhgINf.png[/img] [/quote] The officer hesitated for a second. "We are from the Federation. We are in an armed conflict with the...barbarians to the south of us, the Yahupi confederacy. My name is Edward Horward, I am the Officer of the squadron stationed here." the officer replies. "Tell me of this...Veilletes republic." he said. _ The Yahupi Confederacy spot this vessel as it arrives through one of the nearby straights. They can't really do anything about it until it makes landfall, however they believe it may be from the same origin as the other Ferry that has arrived in another location. The Yahupi prepare for battle incase this might be another new thing the Federation has come up with, or just prepare for battle anyway. The plane flies over these islands, discovering they are inhabited. There is plenty of various buildings and structures and what seem to be troop movements down below. There are various dirt roads, and no airfields or anything that would signify they are advanced beyond basic industrialism. "FIRE!!" a Yahupi officer shouts, upon seeing the plane. He directs his soldiers to fire at this thing to the best of their abilities. A trebuchet fires off a few flaming cannonballs in the direction of this plane, they miss but others start firing at this plane. It is certain the Yahupi do not like to be flown over, if they even know what a plane is. They probably don't.
