SHOWTIME 11
> Overview
Representative insignia of Showtime 11.
Showtime 11 (S-11), or the Unified Korthiean Special Operations Force 11 (UKSOF-11), was an elite military battalion that was assigned to and predominantly served in Level 149. They were the foremost reason for the systematic nuclear wipeout that transpired during Operation Total Downfall. Despite the unprecedented response of the Auriellen Ground Forces and Security Council to investigate and eliminate the constituent members of S-11, much of the information pertaining to S-11 has been either destroyed, lost, or is highly confidential and has yet to be intercepted and/or decrypted by our cybersecurity agents.
To our knowledge, Showtime 11 had no centralized base, instead opting to nomadically and swiftly adjust locations to avoid prolonged confrontations with Auriellen forces. Furtheremore, they obtained a mythical status, often nicknamed the 'invincible battalion' by many due to surviving encounters with elite Auriellen units, such as the Grey Helmets, Nightcrawlers, and Corasil Sinos Arma. Many UKOPCOM leaders realized the full propaganda value as intercepted private Backchat messages detailed plans to pull S-11 out of Level 149 to defend and fight more symbolically important areas; however, the Auriellen Ground Forces and Auriellen Security Council Special Forces managed to block these attempts, though these did not stop covert 'feeding' operations that maintained a steady supply of ammunition, food, and other essential necessities to them.
Although the utilization of S-11 as an 'invincible' and 'undefeatable' battalion quickly became saturated, as frankly, they sustained several losses, many of which were covered up by the UKOPCOM Ministry of Defense, with many of their appointed operations being declared resounding successes. However, this does not minimize the threat which S-11 posed to Auriellen regular and special forces; as they miraculously survived various encounters with units infamous for being a bad omen on the battlefield, just that the extent of these victories were rather bloated.
> Simplified Timeline
NOVEMBER 13, 2018 – Showtime 11 is first seen in Level 149. Despite being left to die by retreating M.E.G. and Confederation of Level 154 Forces, they survived 22 minutes of constant assault by Auriellen forces.
DECEMBER 27th, 2018 – Following their survival and after some blackmail, they are appointed to defend Sector 83-B, a recently occupied sector. The battalion sustains several losses due to Auriellen prescence but successfully retake the sector. The casualties are quickly covered up and the operation is declared a resounding success.
JANUARY 2ND, 2019 – The Auriellen Security Council and Federal Assembly of Defense meet up to discuss about Showtime 11. Entrances and exits into Level 149 are seized by Auriellen forces. A level-wide manhunt for any member or associate of S-11 is announced.
FEBRUARY 8TH, 2019 – Through various skirmishes and spontaneous firefights, the UKOPCOM sends the battalion to a near suicidal mission in order to prove their mythical and invincible status; they are sent to attack Salfren, an area notorious for being trap-ridden and being under strict control by Auriellen personnel. Despite suffering tremendous casualties, they manage to survive, with 10 personnel suffering little to no injuries.
FEBRUARY 16TH, 2019 – Auriellen Special Forces Operational Detachments - Detail A and B "Nightcrawler" and the "Grey Berets" are deployed into Level 149 to deal with Showtime 11.
FEBRUARY 21ST, 2019 – First S-11 confrontation with the Nightcrawlers. The battalion sustains various casualties and is forced to retreat; no Nightcrawlers were killed during the gunfight. UKOPCOM leaders decide to provide additional support through a network of secret agents operating within the level.
FEBRUARY 30TH, 2019 – A direct line between Level 154 and Level 149 is made; M.E.G. supply efforts are made considerably easier; however, at the same time, Operation Total Downfall is proposed by the Auriellen Security Council; the idea is initially shelved.
MARCH 14TH, 2019 – Following the seizing of a large ammunition depot located within the Gransevis, Showtime 11 is sent to recapture the depot. First confirmed confrontation with the Grey Helmets; the status of the mission is not mentioned, although it is presumed to be a semi-successful one, as a large explosion coming from the western premises of the location was heard that same date.
MARCH 17TH, 2019 – Fears of Showtime 11 causing a resurgence within coalition morale that led to further elongation of the war led to the initiation of Operation Total Downfall; Corasil Sinos Arma, and its task forces are called to initiate an evacuation of personnel of Aurielle, Rama Saom, Backroom Colonists, B.I.F., Red Cross, The System, and N.A.X.O.S. out of the level.
MARCH 18TH, 2019 – Through various diplomatic talks, Auriellen diplomats convince The Architects to close the line between Level 154 and Level 149.
MARCH 19TH, 2019 – Suspicions arise due to the evacuation of the level. The UKOPCOM M.O.D. unknowingly sends Showtime 11 to its last mission, the destruction of a large Auriellen supply bunker and Rama Saoman research base. The battalion first attacks the supply bunker, using improvised explosives to set it ablaze with little to no resistance.
MARCH 20TH, 2019 – The following day, they head to the Ragrey Research Base, although the mission is aborted early as they are ambushed by a conjoined force of the Grey Berets, Nightcrawlers, and CS-107 Task Forces.
MARCH 21ST, 2019 – Evacuation is completed.
MARCH 22ND, 2019 – Voitas 2 is detonated; instant termination of the battalion.
I must inform you with great dismay that the Republic of Aurielle has carried out a systematic nuclear termination on Level 149. 7 warheads, all presumably fired from the same weapon system, struck the grounds of the level at approximately 2:43 PM, Whitefold Standard Time (WST). It was determined that the cause of this drastic measure was due to Showtime 11, to which the Auriellens took all means necessary for their elimination, even if it meant the unfortunate killing of many innocent wanderers.
Among the fallen were all members of Showtime 11, units operating in Level 149, anyone within Whitefold, and the thousands of wanderers exploring the level. Currently, the casualty report estimates deaths to be in the 14,000s to 18,000s range. Aurielle has blocked all entrances and exits of Level 149 to avoid the Nuclear Infection used in the warheads from spreading to other levels.
Allies of Aurielle which had previously settled in the level, have most definitely been spared. The evacuations ensured all personnel within the level, from the Backroom Colonists to N.A.X.O.S., survived. We were the second-most impacted individuals of these bombings, the firstmost being wanderers going through the level. Albeit a shame that many innocent lives were lost, the implications of this are catastrophic for UKOPCOM.
Aurielle not only set to destroy Showtime 11 with these bombings but also set to destroy our morale, which would lead to a fastened surrender. There is no hope for reprisal; Antlia has capitulated after being completely annexed by Aurielle; all that remains of the coalition are us and the Confederation of Level 154—even so, we are fighting a losing war. Our only hope was Showtime 11. These men resiliantly resisted the Auriellens and could've reignited coalition morale, but without them, we have no remaining options.
They've shown their strength; if we were to continue this war, they will continue to advance into our bases. Our own units are ill-fitted; their fighting spirits have long since left their bodies. We must do all in our power to turn to diplomacy.
“A far more powerful weapon than anything we've ever developed . . . constructing the Voitas 2 is as dangerous as using it. It could wipe out any level in just a few hours.”

Censored Schematics of the Voitas 2.
Voitas 2 (pronounced:Voi.tas,English: Forgiveness) is a weapon of mass destruction (WMD) developed by the Republic of Aurielle during the Korthie Casiagen War. It was the final result of Project Vega, a military program headed by the Federal Assembly of Defense and the Auriellen Security Council aimed at developing advanced weapon systems. Its creation was a replacement for the failure of the Comonas Kavos 11.
Ever since the end of the Korthie Casiagen War, Aurielle has pledged to cease production of the Voitas 2 for the sake of safety, however they still maintain their remaining arsenal as detonation, dismantling, or burying have been considered too risky.
> History
>> Korthie Casiagen War The Voitas 2 was first conceived after the aforementioned failure of the construction of Comonas Kavos 11. The first fully functional unit was developed around September 15th, 2016 and was carefully stored in the Danern Special Weaponry Ground Forces Depot (DSWGFD).
By the time of the initial proposal of Operation Total Downfall, 21 other models had been produced, although one had to be placed in Level 630 as it was faulty. The weapon's existence was maintained only to Auriellen forces and select individuals of the Backroom Colonists before being brought to public attention as a result of Operation Total Downfall.
On March 22nd, 2019, the Voitas 2 saw its first usage ever; 7 Voitas 2's were delivered through the usage of a more powerful M29 Davy Crockett Weapon System-styled device on Level 149. In the days following Operation Total Downfall, the last Voitas 2 was developed before the program was discontinued due to fear of public backlash.
> Design The Voitas 2 is designed to carry eight compartments[1] filled with Nuclear Infection, the material of the compartments being made from ███████, being one of few materials able to withstand it. The Voitas 2 is an unguided bomb; thus, it simply follows a ballistic trajectory.
Voitas 2 has two modes, which depend on how long it remains up in the air, being denonimed "Hardhit" and "Domino." Hardhit deploys all eight stiger's in one location, while Domino is similar to a multiple independently targetable reentry vehicle, as it deploys the stiger's separately in mid-flight, intended to strike different targets at once. Hardhit is the mode used during low airtime, while Domino is used during high airtime; these are chosen automatically.
The stiger's possess a central compartment filled with Nuclear Infection. At the tip is an impact fuse that detonates a surrounding layer of Firesalt, which, upon ignition blasts, opens the outer casing, causing the release of the Nuclear Infection.
