OOC- Cologne has not pledged support in any form though :huh:

OOC:

HCI is a Colognian Catholic nation. That is enough.

"The Confederation of Austro-Bayern fully supports the resistance of Al-Asad. The mere existence of himself and his supporters proves that this move by the Holy Catholic Imperium is not wanted by Al-Andalus' citizens and hence is aggressively motivated. We call upon all nations who recognize this to condemn the Holy Catholic Imperium and refuse to trade with their markets until such time as the Imperium withdraws."

Conversion by the sword is illegal and anamantha to Colognianism. The HCI government must stop this at once, and we strongly condemn this heretical move.

It is not conversion by the sword, if they refuse to accept our government peacefully, then they must be taken with force. No one is forcing anyone to convert.

The Holy Catholic Imperium has time and time again given the Colognian Catholic Church a bad name. The Emperor has refused to cooperate with the Papacy while still claiming the title of "Holy Catholic Imperium", a title that the Church never did grant the Portuguese monarch, but tolerated, until now. The Holy Catholic Emperor is hereby stripped of us his title, and is excommunicated for his crimes against humanity, and his sins against the Church.

I have heard of your recent excommunication from the heretical church of the Cologne. Though your people are viewed as sinners and heretics by the Genesian church of South Africa, you can be forgiven. Convert to Genesian Catholicism, swear your fidelity to the Papal thrown of Genesis City that will one day rise again, and the Commonwealth will see that the church restores your royal title as well as support you in your endeavors in the Iberian Peninsula. This is your own chance to save not only your soul but the souls of all you reign over.

Your loss, we don't need you, or your 'seal of approval', one man will not judge the fate of billions of people, were not your slaves, and we've grown tired of taking your orders. We still worship the Catholic Church, and we continue to, whether you like it or not. We are still the Holy Catholic Imperium, whether you like it or not.

Let it be known to all the world that "Emperor" Emilio is a heretic, and a butcher at that. Nay, he is not even worthy of the title of heretic, for heresy implies belief in God, however perverted that belief may be. He is a Godless atheist who has no shame and no morals. For a great time, he has killed in the name of the Church, he has oppressed in the name of the Church, and now he invades in the name of the Church. No longer. The invasion of Al-Andalus is completely illegal, and beyond that, evil and anamentha to the Holy Mother Church. This is not a just war; this is a war of conquest, waged for no other reason except to add more territories to Emilio Geurero's fiefdom.

Let the people of lower Portugal know that their monarch no longer cares for God, or for his people. He cares for his personal gain. Let the people fo lower Portugal know that the Colognian Catholic Church does not blame them for the sins of their government; to the contrary. The monarch of lower Portugal has failed to respect his people.

As Emillio claimed the title of "Holy Catholic Emperor", a title which would naturally derive from the Holy Mother Church, he no longer has any right to rule.

OOC: Would it be possible to create my own Catholic Church?

IC: Hermenda's team took the responsibilty of destroying the the AA batteries. As the other teams waited in reserve. Hermenda stuck close to the walls as his team followed cautiously behind, he continued to move down the street, until he spotted the schoo, it was located on a street corner, with the AA batteries in the back, in the playground - the playground was fenced off. So they had to dispact each terrorist from a distance. Hermenda ordered his team into the 3 story building which was locatedd adjacent to the school, they moved there way inside queitly, and took poisition on the 2nd and 3rd story windows. "HOld fire" ordered Hermenda through his comms, as he shouldered his weapon, "Okay, Open Fire!"

The windows swung open, followed by a barrage of G3 bullets. Knocking down mopst of the AA operators. One ran to the fence and began to climb, but the soldier beside Hermenda managed to pick him off. He ordered his team out of the building and to the fece, where he cut the wire and entered. The Demolitions expert placed C4, and as they headed back to their team, he detonated the explosives. Destroying the AA batteries. "HQ, this is Hermenda, we've taken care of the AA, we request those choppers now, over!"

"Roger that Hermenda, We'll fly them in now, ETA 20 Seconds."

Hermenda looked to the west, where he saw two attack choppers flying in from the Aircraft carriers positioned on the coastline. Missiles began to whiz out from the copters, leaving a trail of smoke, the Warehouse' roof collapsed in itself, and a cloud of smoke shot out in all directions, consuming every member of Hermanda's team. They shortly went to inspect the warehouse for survivors, finding none. They did, however find 2 trucks parked out front, with the Andalus Liberation Army ensigna painted on the side.

Those were his way into the TV station..

OOC: Yes. However, join Genesian. The Pope is gone anyway, so you don't have to really worry about a central authority. Hispania is Genesian.

OOC- I was hoping HCI would try harder to stay Colognian, but if not, I say create your own church, since Genesian Catholicism is even more strict. Moreso if the Genesian Popes return.

OOC:

The Genesian Church will likely return, after all, CE has started RPing again! :D

You can of course create your own Church, but make sure you try to make it make sense. It should have a reason why it calls itself Catholic after rejecting the authority of the Pope.

Hermenda ordered 3 teams inside each truck, and he decided to drive one, and another soldier drove the other, just to make it look legitimate, Hermeda slipped on some clpthes he found on a dead terrorist. He was now wearing a red cloth over his face, black cotton pants, and a blue turtleneck. He looked like a clown, but if it would work... He started the ruck, and it made a loud roar as it's engines turned on, and he drove out of the parking lot and onto the street. He followed the main street north, and he reached the TV station, he backed the truck into the truck unloading station, and he got out of the truck. The other truck followed suit, Hermenda then unloaded the vehicle's contents: 3 squads of determined Catholics.

The other truck began to unload as well, and Hermendas team got into breaching position, one of Hermenda's squad vmates shot the door handle open, and his team poured in, inside was a large room filled with Boxes, no sign of terrorists. He made his way to the door, and opened it, seconds later that same door was shattered by rifle fire. Hermenda stayed low and made his way behind a cublicle in the next room, his team still pinned in the cargo room, suddenly, a grenade flew out of the cargo room, blinding Hermenda's vision. He regained vision to see all 3 teams made there way in this room, which Hermenda later decifered to be the office quarters. The stairwell was in the opposite corner of his current position, the terrorists were aware of thier location, and they were also in the office.

Hermenda noticed two terrorists run in the room from the stairwell carrying an RPG. He tried to shoot it down, but he missed. The rocketeer fired at Hermendas squad - killing 3. He didn't retreat to try and help them, there was nothing he could do. He instead fired back, killing the rocketeer with a (lucky) neck shot. The smoke from the fire began to slowly crawl upon the roof above Hermenda, he hit the floor and crawled forward, the smoke providing cover on his advance, he couldnt see where he was going, but he knew he was going in the right direction, as he could the hear the screams of terrorists right beside him. He reached the stairwell, leaving his team behind, they could wait, he thought.

He began to climb the stairs, picking off a terrorist guarding the door, he broke the door down To see Al-Asad standing in front of an un-manned camera. Asad stopped talking and looked over, he reached to his holster to try and draw his gun, but Hermenda reacted by shooting Asad in the arm. Asad fell down, and Hermenda retrieved his gun, and then broke the camera. He seated Asad on the chair, who was now trying to treat hs wound, then he punched Asad in the face, as hard as he could, Asad cried out in pain, as a tooth flew across the room, his mouth now dripping blood. He punched him again with his other arm, and once again another cry of pain rang out.

Asad kept his head down. And Hermenda executed Asad with his G3. "HQ, this is Herenda, I've dealt with Asad, over, requesting a pickup!"

"Roger that Hermenda, well done."

Hermenda then headed back downstairs to help out his team, but when he got there, they didn't need any help, they had secured the room, as he looked for his squad, he heard a familiar voice "Hermenda" Yelled out one of his squad-mates "We thought you bit the dust, it's good to see you, where's Asad?"

"Dead" said Hermenda

"Oh, well, that's wonderful news"

It is truly sad that you would damn your nation to the fires of hell. Your heresy will not go unpunished and on judgment day God will punish you and all other heretics for your crimes against his heavenly grace. Know that the Commonwealth will never make such an offer to you again and when the Papacy of Catholic Europe rises again, we will do everything within our power to ensure you're never allowed into the church should you ever change your mind.

OOC: Oh and just so there's no misunderstanding, when I said "when the Papacy of Catholic Europe rises again" I am not saying that because I know anything, it's just that the people of the Commonwealth strongly believe that the a Pope will return, as all devoted Genesians should believe.
