The World Turned Upside Down

Nicaragua didn't share any classified comminques. We're neutral and this war is an atrocity that will live in infamy for ever. The lives wasted by boths sides are lives that will never procreate, innovate or prosper. A pity.
 
Mussolini would like to state that regardless of any supposed war he will make those damned trains run on time!

WORLD WAR THREE. On May 9, conjoined with an announcement by the Soviet Union of an agreement with the American Accord, Soviet forces invaded Eastern Europe, smashing the forces along the border in their advance. On June 22, Islamic forces attacked ATO colonial possessions in Africa and India. The world now turns to focus on the powers which have yet to declare whether they are backing up ATO or remaining neutral. How will this latest great conflict go?

NICARAGUA CEDES TO US DEMANDS. Managua, Nicaragua. Following the Congressional Massacre, the United States sent out a provocative series of ultimatums to the nations of the American Accord. Alone among the Accord, Nicaragua agreed to the majority of demands and has alone managed to keep neutrality in the escalating Third World War. As part of the treaty Nicaragua has demobilized a good part of its regular military forces and even has sold its entire standing navy to Nippon. However, this has been an incredibly unpopular move among the Nicaraguan people, and several riots have even occurred within Managua. (+20% Dissent)

US PASSES EMERGENCY POWERS ACT. Washington D.C., United States of America. Following the devastation of America’s elected government and the following crisis in South America, President Lindbergh and the remnants of Congress have allowed the establishment of the Emergency Powers Act, putting President Lindbergh as supreme leader for the duration of the crisis. The invasion of Alaska and American Accord raids off the eastern seaboard have both added continued credibility to the new act. (-20% Dissent)

POWERS CALL FOR CONSCRIPTION. As in the Second World War, a variety of belligerent nations have called up conscription to help provide desperately required manpower to wage war. Most of these at the moment are South American based nations. However, it will remain to be seen whether these conscripts will provide a turning point for the growing war. Below are how many will be received per year and for how many years they will continue to arrive.
Bolivia: +5 Conscript Divisions a year for 4 years.
Brazil: +7 Conscript Divisions a year for 4 years.

EASTERN EUROPE. Following a massive rocket bombardment of airfields in East Prussia, Poland, and Romania, the Soviet Union launched a massive invasion of Eastern Europe on May 9, 1937. Within the first two months of the invasion, both Poland and Romania fell, though the latter’s fall was partially caused by the entry of the Brotherhood of Islamic Nations into the war. The Bulgarian reoccupation of Sofia forced the Romanians to either surrender or join the provisional government at Berlin. Soviet forces, using their newfound position in Romania, proceeded to advance north into Hungary, defeating combined Hungarian and German forces there. However, German forces managed to halt the Soviet advance along the Oder, and a further defeat by Dutch and Hungarian forces at Budapest would prevent the Soviets from crossing the Danube. Also along this front German marine forces managed several raids, devastating the cities of Trotskygrad and Riga. However, through these raids several destroyers and the KMS Bismarck were sunk by Soviet fighters. On the mainland, the Soviets have gained a slight edge in air superiority, which has assisted them in the ongoing combat. This can be attributed to the Soviet use of both rockets and jets as compared to the Luftwaffe which has primarily used obsolescent piston-engined fighters.
Casualty List
USSR: 4 Militia Divisions, 8 Infantry Divisions, 1 Motorized Division, 5 Armored Divisions, 3 Fighter Squadrons, 2 Jet Squadrons, 2 Bomber Squadrons (+1 Cruiser Group, +1 Destroyer Group from Romania)
Mongolia: 4 Infantry Divisions
Poland: 4 Infantry Divisions, 1 Cavalry Division, 1 Fighter Squadron
Romania: 2 Infantry Divisions, 1 Cavalry Division, 1 Motorized Division, 1 Armored Division, 2 Fighter Squadrons, 1 Cruiser Group, 1 Destroyer Group
Hungary: 8 Infantry Divisions, 1 Cavalry Division, 1 Armored Division, 3 Fighter Squadrons, 1 Jet Fighter Squadron, 2 Bomber Squadrons
Belguim: 2 Infantry Divisions
Holland: 3 Infantry Divisions
Germany: 7 Infantry Divisions, 2 Motorized Divisions, 3 Armored Divisions, 1 Marine Division, 1 Capital Ship, 1 Cruiser Group, 3 Destroyer Groups, 6 Fighter Squadrons, 2 Bomber Squadrons

SCANDINAVIA. A weaker attack than the Eastern European offensive, Soviet forces dismantled the Mannerheim Security Wall and poured into Scandinavian Finland. However, thanks to the time it took to destroy the wall the Scandinavians had ample warning to mobilize their army. In a vicious battle, the Soviets managed to advance through Scandinavian territory, eventually even taking Helsinki. The arrival of a German expeditionary force helped stabilize and stalemate the front, bringing the Soviet advance to a halt. The initial Soviet attacks neutralized the minute Scandinavian air force, securing air superiority for the rest of the campaign.
Casualty List
USSR: 5 Militia Divisions, 2 Infantry Divisions, 1 Fighter Squadron
Scandinavia: 4 Infantry Divisions, 2 Jet Fighter Squadrons
Germany: 1 Marine Division

SOUTHERN BALKANS. Islamic forces, though attacking after the May 9 Soviet attack, still managed to catch the Serbian army off guard. Through brute force and air superiority, the Serbs have been forced into a bitter siege of the capital of Pristina. The combined Albanian, Bulgarian, and Bosnian attack mostly caught the Serbs off guard, although the King has successfully escaped to Berlin. Near the end of the year, Albanian and Bosnian forces launched a limited offensive into Italy’s Adriatic coastline. Though they inflicted some heavy casualties in the early stage of the advance, the Italians were able to use the region’s natural mountain terrain. Early air attacks and Soviet rocket attacks from Romania helped neutralized the Serbian air force, and its remnants have fled to Germany along with the King.
Casualty List
Albania: 2 Infantry Divisions
Bosnia: 4 Infantry Divisions, 1 Armored Division
Bulgaria: 3 Motorized Divisions
Serbia: 10 Infantry Divisions, 1 Cavalry Division, 2 Jet Fighter Squadrons, 1 Bomber Squadron

EASTERN MEDITERANEAN. Italian military forces in Palestine and the surrounding regions have been soundly defeated by the Islamic army storming in. A rapid mechanized assault took the Suez Canal intact within the first month of the war, and the following offensives destroyed some of the best Italian divisions in Syria. Following the fall of the Suez Islamic army forces proceeded to advance across Italian Africa, crushing all in their way. That is until they hit a last ditch desperate Italian defense at El Alamein. The “Brave but Baffled” Italian 8th Army managed to hold the Islamic force at this narrow chokehold along the North African coast. At sea, the capture of the Suez meant the arrival of the combined Islamic fleet into the Mediteranean. The Italians, expecting a major fleet action, were met with disaster as the Muslim fleet, were devastated by Islamic naval and land-based air power. Four Italian battleships were sent to the bottom of the Sea while the Muslims never even came in sight of the Italian fleet. Though Italian land air power attempted to aid, they were far outmatched by Islamic jets. Following the decisive defeat Islamic forces assaulted and took the Italian forward naval base of Cyprus. The remnants of the Italian fleet have fled to port in Italy proper.
Casualty List
Dar-al-Islam: 2 Infantry Division, 2 Motorized Divisions, 1 Destroyer Group, 2 Fighter Squadrons, 1 Bomber Squadron
Persia: 1 Cruiser Group, 1 Jet Fighter Squadron
Turkey: 2 Infantry Divisions, 1 Fighter Squadron
Italy: 9 Infantry Divisions, 2 Armored Divisions, 3 Motorized Divisions, 4 Capital Ships, 2 Light Carriers, 4 Cruiser Groups, 4 Destroyer Groups, 2 Fighter Squadrons

INDIA. Following the offensives in Europe and the Mediteranean, Islamic military forces proceeded to launch a massive attack into the mountainous region of Pakistan. Overwhelming Afghan and Persian soldiers poured over the border, defeating the Commonwealth defenses with considerable difficulty. The mountainous terrain and the experiences against China helped the veteran Commonwealth army in their defense, but sheer weight of numbers forced the fighting out of the easy defensive positions in the mountains out to the open plains of India. Government officials have ordered the evacuation of New Delhi as Islamic armies draw closer. In the skies, the Muslims have easily defeated any UCS attempted to combat their air power, and Islamic air superiority has inflicted a heavy toll on the UCS defense.
Casualty List
Persia: 4 Infantry Divisions
Afghanistan: 6 Infantry Divisions, 1 Fighter Squadron
Turkestan: 2 Fighter Squadrons
UCS: 6 Infantry Divisions, 2 Cavalry Divisions, 2 Motorized Divisions, 1 Armored Division, 4 Fighter Squadrons

FALKLANDS. Announcing the onset of the ATO invasion of the American Accord nations, South African naval and army forces seized the Falkland islands as a forward naval base. At last utilizing the naval base there abandoned by British at the end of the First World War, the South Africans have secured the islands in preparation for further offensives.

GALAPAGOS. Elements of the United States Pacific Fleet headed south from Hawaii and captured the Ecuadorian islands of the Galapagos. Following this action, the American fleet sailed south and sunk two Bolivian battleships coming out of dry dock construction. The raid further destroyed the Bolivian navy in its entirety without a loss of a single American ship.
Casualty List
Bolivia: 2 Capital Ships, 1 Cruiser Group, 2 Destroyer Groups, 1 Wolfpack

VENEZUELA. The United States Carib Fleet steamed south from Havana, sinking several converted Light Carriers to minelayers in its path. The American fleet then met the Venezuelan in a desperate battle as the American Accord battleships steamed out to meet the Americans in battle. Without air cover, the Venezuelans were sitting ducks for the American carrier-based jets. The Venezuelan fleet was sent to the bottom of the sea, bringing with them a single American battleship, the USS Arizona. Several cruisers, submarines, and destroyers were also destroyed by the marauding Venezuelan navy in its first and last naval engagement. Following the epic naval confrontation American airborne divisions landed throughout northern Venezuela, paving the way for a massive invasion from the sea. At the moment it seems Venezuelan forces have fled into the jungles, leaving control of the coast to the United States.
Casualty List
Venezuela: 7 Capital Ships, 1 Light Carrier, 3 Cruiser Groups, 6 Destroyer Groups
USA: 1 Capital Ship, 1 Cruiser Group, 2 Destroyers, 1 Wolfpack

ECUADOR. American heavy armored forces under General Patton advanced along the Ecuadorian coast, devastating the limited American Accord military forces in the regions. This was following by a massive move through the more mountainous eastern part of the country, overwhelming local defenses. Despite initial American successes, Ecuadorians, possessing the single modern air force within the American Accord, managed to gain and use air superiority to inflict heavy casualties on American tanks and to halt the advance right outside of Quito. The arrival of Peruvian troops also prevented further American advances in the region.
Casualty List
Ecuador: 4 Infantry Divisions
Peru: 1 Infantry Division
USA: 4 Infantry Divisions, 1 Cavalry Division, 1 Armored Division, 1 Jet Fighter Squadron

GUYANA. Brazilian forces were easily rebuffed by the American defenses in Guyana and hastily withdrew back into the borders of Brazil proper. Only light casualties were suffered by both sides in this campaign as Brazil’s army was given orders to withdraw in the face of stiff resistance. A similar assault was launched into Colombia which suffered heavier casualties against prepared German soldiers in fixed defenses.
Casualty List
Brazil: 3 Infantry Divisions
Germany: 1 Infantry Division
USA: 1 Infantry Division

CHILE. Surprisingly, Chilean forces, well prepared for a defensive war, easily repulsed Accord attacks on Santiago and the northern provinces. Though the southern territories were quickly lost to the armies of Argentina, Chileans used the mountainous terrain of the north to hold the advance. However, the defense cost Chile most of its reserves and the victory was a Pyrrhic one at best. Chile’s air superiority also helped achieve their victory over the united forces of the American Accord.
Casualty List
Argentina: 4 Infantry Divisions, 1 Mountain Division
Bolivia: 2 Conscript Divisions, 3 Infantry Divisions
Chile: 5 Infantry Divisions, 1 Motorized Division

ALASKA. In a surprise move, Soviet merchant ships flagged as Nipponese vessels managed to sneak several Soviet divisions off the Alaskan coast. Landing in the Aluetian Islands, the Soviets managed to sneak past US coastal defenses, capturing much of Alaska with the aid of local communist sympathizers. The American populace has been outraged by the attack, and calls for total war have been answered by President Lindbergh.

@Terris, helicopters are not yet available. They will be on the tech tree when they are. A large amount of techs will be available for research as of 1940.

Excuse any typos, most of this update was done with one eye. That is also the reason the update is late.

Finally, thanks to Luckymoose for our nifty new map.

From Germany

We said "Soviets are evil" and you all said "nooooo..."

The Kaiser issues this statement to all the nations of the world: do you not think these powers will stop where they are? No, their intent is obvious: world domination. All hope is not lost, however; there is still time for those remaining neutral nations to recognize the ruthless aggression committed by the Soviets and Muslims, the genocide the Soviets have engaged in versus the Poles, and the evil iron fist with which they both rule. I say, lay down your white flags! Put aside your neutrality! The well-being of the globe is at stake.

It is time for a purge. God's own fist is knocking at your door, and it is a very disappointed fist indeed! For too long have you been evil with your capitalist ways. Now is the time to repent!

An interesting concept, especially from a godless communist allied with world hating fanatics. Ours is the side of God, yours is the side of corruption.
 
OOC: I would have found communists talking of god funny, but they are greek, so it is different.

Great update. Peace is always available to those who genuinely seek it.

"Godless communist?" You Americans are as ignorant as you are decadent! "World hating fanatics" is true, because there is so much to hate in a world of evil!
