==Russo-Mandatum War==

Crimean air fleets toast 3 Mandatum bases.

==Russo-Partitionanian War==

Anatolia sends 3 air armadas and 3 armies to assist the Russians. While the air armadas must refuel, the 3 armies can nonetheless bolster Russian manpower.

Russia has 6 planes, but also has authorisation to use 2 Crimean, 5 Swedish.

5 bomb the Polish fleet. 10 escort armies into Partitionania. 5 bomb the Finno-Polish troops.

1 Polish fleet is sunk.

3 Soviet fleets attack 3 Polish.

Poland triumphs! The Soviets sink 1 ship, the Poles sink 2.

Russia musters 9 Peruvian Armies, 71 Russian, 10 Crimean and 5 Swedish.

The 9 Peruvian and 32 Russian armies colonise land for Russia; 1 Russian army goes on a secret mission. 25 armies can reach their targets; 8 colonise overseas.

This leaves 34 Russian, 10 Crimean, and 5 Swedish armies to strike Partitionania down. 4 Russian armies are staying home to defend Moscow.

First, 5 air wings swoop in to bomb the Polish forces. 1 is lost to AA fire. Polish planes give pursuit, but run out of fuel before they can catch the much faster Soviet planes.

3 Soviet air armadas assist the invasion forces.

Poland wins! The Soviet forces kill 16 divisions. The Finno-Poles kill 11 divisions - 5 Russian, 4 Crimea, 2 Swedish.

10,000 Polish civilians were killed in the crossfire.

==Soviet Invasion of Angola==

Sneaking a fleet into the Atlantic, the Soviets send 1 Soviet fleet and 1 Soviet army against Luanda.

They are promptly butchered like cattle by the Angolan Army, but kill 1 Angolan army themselves. Angola suffers minor damage - 5,000 civilians die in the crossfire.

The Soviet fleet, however, does blockade the defenseless Angolan coast.

==Ionian Revolt==

Rome sends 8 armies, 6 navies, and 4 air wings to assist the Byzantines against their rebellion.

Hellas sends 1 army, 1 fleet and 2 air wings.

Byzantium has 5 armies, 3 fleets and 3 air wings.

The Ionians humble 2 fleets stand against a 10 fleet horde.

The Western forces win, and sink the Ionian fleet. The Ionians sink 1 Byzantine fleet.

Bombarding after a battle, no enemy units are killed. A standard land battle ensues, with 3 provinces defended by 3 armies.

2 Roman air wings, 2 Hellenic air wings, and 3 Byzantine air wings assist. While the Roman air force tangoes with the Ionian, the Greek wings protect the troops.

3 battles are won, and the provinces fall. The 3 Ionians are decimated, but kill 1 Roman and 1 Byzantine division.

80,000 people are killed or displaced. Byzantium loses some Industry points due to the ruin.

Spoiler :

The Solar System. Quiet. Not because of lack of activity; Earth is full of almost hellish action. It is in such disarray. The vacuum, however, makes it about as loud as the wind blowing on a temperate spring day.

Or does it?

An unnoticed superstructure glides along the out-most part of the system. It's mysterious blue aura invisible in light of the stars on the background. Its existence is unknown to the inhabitants of this system. Even if it were discovered, they would never understand the masterpiece. Its creation. Its legacy. Its reckoning. It reacts. It has received something. More than something. It has received many. They may not understand it. But they will receive it. They will receive...

The Harvest.

*****************************

The King was awoken from his slumber. It was distasteful, all of the noise. But it was the alarm. He had a duty to answer to it, no matter how much of an annoyance it was. It was Code Violet. The whole city of Jerusalem will be awake. They had to be evacuated... And they needed their King. He stood from his bed, his guard were at attention in every corner of the room. He ordered a squad to evacuate his family after saying a word or two to his wife and walked off to lead his nation under God. If only he knew God were so close.

He finally made it to the central command. Many hallways were passed. Outside was visible by many windows. Searchlights stabbed the sky and alarms roared throughout the city. People were being evacuated. But no sign of any actual danger to the city. It was odd. He didn't ask questions of his surrounding generals. Debriefing had just begun, after all.

"Your Majesty. We've sounded the alarm for a most distressful reason. Only an hour ago, a mysterious aerial vehicle entered our airspace... But..." The Grand Master of the Air Force hesitated as if he didn't believe the report himself.
"Yes? But what?" The King asked, in slight distress. No answer, not even a whisper, in the room crowded with his officers.
"What is in my Kingdom!?"
"The vehicle is reported to be as tall as this building, standing over two kilometers high." His Battle Master of the Army, his most trusted of the three Battle Masters, replied.
"What? That... Can't be..." The King spoke in disbelief.
"Nothing of this scale could have possibly been built on this planet without being noticed, my King." His Battle Master of the Navy inquired.
"That's proposterous. Why has it not been shot down?" The Monarch of Jerusalem demanded.
"It... We think its operators... We think they wish to speak with us. It has not fired at any of our forces no matter how close they were. It is just slowly, cautiously moving towards this city." The Battle Master of the Army said as if to imply a possible diplomatic solution.
"An intruder is an intruder. If a nation wishes to war with Jerusalem, we must show them we can war as if not more than effectively as them!" The King yelled almost decidedly.
"But, your highness... It came from... It came from outside our atmosphere..." The Battle Master of the Air Force let out. It had obviously been holding his tongue since the meeting began.
"... What?" The King was confused, now. This couldn't be.
"It came on radar at first directly over Acre. It... It did not cross our border. It came from directly above us." The Battle Master of the Air Force continued.
"... What could... What could possibly be the meaning of this...?" The King was now at a loss for words.
"Like I said, my leige... I think they wish to speak with us." The Battle Master of the Army again pressed his desire for a diplomatic solution rathe than one of war.
"We... We will see. Ready all defenses, however... To be certain. Continue the evacuation." The King decided. He wished to see just what these people wanted, he decided. It would be the best and worst decision he'd ever make.
"Yes sir." The three Battle Masters said in unison.

***************

The reports didn't lie. The behemoth of a vehicle was absolutely huge. It didn't fire anything at the city. It entered and docked with the Great Cross Tower - the true capital to the Crusader-State. A passage was quickly thrown together to enter the gigantic construct. The King rushed through the passage way and into the closest thing to a physical God any of the people of Earth would ever know.

When he came out, he never truly came back. He wasn't his own anymore. The people of the nation came to believe he was God's. And it was partly true. But as he was now God's, so was the nation. The vessel the people called God left parting gifts before he went back up to the heavens. An alter for his worship. Several 'Angels' to protect his new Vassal. He gave even life to the machines the Kingdom had constructed.

Above all, he left the gift of a promise.

The people of Earth will ascend.

Because I have sent my troops to the USSR, can I still expand as always? Otherwise, all those troops will return home, so I imagine the USSR will give them a medal or a condecoration.

Of course you will get a medal. We'll send your troops home.

Note that their combat experience has likely increased from the fighting, so your army tech should have increased too

The PUBAD Troops will be eternal grateful.

Since your troops were sent overseas, except one, you only got one territory.

Directive Statement on the Post Crimean-Russian Base Crisis



Written by VEMOS on narration of General Director Hector Murray​

Before commencing the notions of the directive it must be commanded that Mandatum base personal around the world are issued for a 5 minute silence in memory of those lost in the savage assaults against our bases in the USSR and Crimea. Those who gave their lives while the rest of the personnel were evacuated will not be forgotten. Covert operatives are advised that while it is an issue to respect that they must remain unconnected to the tragedy as possible to avoid being found out.

We are set on M.I.G.S.A (Mandatum Inquisitive Global Security Assessment) 2 in relation to the chaos. With M.I.G.S.A 2 issued we must do all we must to commence operative means of security. Penalties for revealing secrets have been executed to high scale painful death to extreme scale painful death as decided by the officials carrying out the execution. Base security must a priority. We must do all we ensure to ensure Mandatum as an organisation that will not be terminated by the USSR. We must ensure our security, our collective protection, our issue of defence. We must not be destroyed.

To ensure our vengeance is met I am issuing two new position. The first is the Mandatum title of Secretary of Russia. I am issuing this to Peter Volkov. We must separate Russia from Europe and Asia in observation due to its geopolitical importance to Mandatum. The secondary and perhaps more critical role will be given the splendid title of A.B.O.M.O (Arch Base Observant Management Overseer) to a Polish journalist turned freedom fighter against the USSR turned Mandatum employee Ada Czajka. The ABOMO will ensure observation of base management and security. This will help for dealing with further threats to our bases of operation. We are under threat but the USSR has chosen an enemy that is not specialist in overt war but covert war. We will use our agents to ensure our security and that our vengeance is carried out. We have no idea of how the new Russian government will be in style but until Joseph Stalin’s moustache is shaved off and preserved in a jar to be placed in a museum for public viewing then we will not rest. The sentence is live and the means is death. We will not surrender to terror.

We are Mandatum. We are order. We are vengeance. We are power and most importantly: we are one.

''The forces of Evil take over one country after the other! First, Poland. Then, they attack Angola. They terrorize the world. They will stop at nothing more than total sabjucation of the free and democratic world. They kill millions of civilians. Their policies of genocide will destroy the world. The Russian Hitler and his new Reich are the absolute evil. They are the symbol of racism, of discrimination. We all remember the crimes of the old Reich. How the exterminated the Jews. How they killed women, children and even babys. How they started a policy of mass extermination. This Russian Hitler took power with a coup, not with elections like the old Hitler. We cannot allow the Nazi Ideology to take over the world. We cannot allow a new holocaust. We have to free Russia from this Tyrant!! He and this German scums occupy Russia. We do not recognize the Russian Hitler as the legal government of Russia and we embargo it. Also, we offer refuge to Polish and Mandatum soldiers. We will also embargo Anatolia and PUBAD.''

- Ngan-xiang, Prime Minister of China

I think this is good a time as any to mention Angola's pretty Stalinist by all counts...

Though I suppose this is in line with how German and British soldiers were "peacekeeping" and "neutral."

Near Moscow..

Massive, sprawling columns of Soviet troops marched into the capital. What greeted them was the smell of burning homes and shops, the stench of rotting corpses, and sights more grisly than that of the Soviet-Partitionanian war.

At first, it seemed quiet. As the morning turned into afternoon, real conflicts erupted. The Nazis had gained access to Moscow's weapon stores, and a small army of them were attacking Soviet civilians. The Soviet army intervened, and for two days fighting raged on.

In the end, the Soviet forces were victorious. They converged on the Kremlin.

The Nazis fought to their last breath.

They broke into the Kremlin. Gunfire was exchanged between combatants, and the Soviets suffered many losses to the entrenched Nazi forces.

Finally, they made it. Two men kicked down the door to Stalin's private office.


...



Nobody was there. There was a pool of blood by the door, and another pool by Stalin's chair. What had happened? Where had he gone?

 

[Tani Coyote]

The IMF reports that the plan proposed to it by the UNZLs was a triumph, and is making a note here: huge success. It is hard to understand the IMF chair's satisfaction.

Union of Nations. They do what they must, because they can, for the good of all nations...

...except the ones who are non-populous.

Ahem. Investments into big population countries such as Alameinea and Mongolia have created obscene levels of wealth as these large labor pools are mobilised. Trade revenues are bolstered throughout the world, and the IMF intends to continue this plan, albeit not as aggressively, so as to help eliminate poverty.

3 days ago...

Stalin slumped in his chair. He had just been tied up by two Nazi goons, and Ivan had been stabbed. It looked like Ivan was still alive.

You bastards! How dare you march into my study and degrade it with your fascist filth! You'll all be killed shortly. I promise.

Ha ha ha, listen to the Commie cry. Tie the other one up, we can probably interrogate him.

You got it.

The shorter assailant pulled the knife out of Ivan and dragged him away. Ivan had passed out from the blood loss, whether he survived or not Stalin would not know.

You... you... b...

Stalin collapsed into sleep, and after a few seconds the tall man pulled out a needle from his arm.

Come with me. Don't struggle, it will just make things worse.

....I... ... ..y...

...... .... .... ...

Stalin opened his eyes. He was strapped to an operating table. A bandage was over his shoulder wound. Where was he? After looking around, it appeared he was in some sort of concrete bunker.

You're far away from Moscow now, Mr. Premier. It's a shame - they will be looking for you there. By the time they get word of our location here, we'll be long gone.

Stock Market News:

For the first time, some folks have LOST money on shares!

The new speculation value, also taking some value from how many purchases/sales were made, is doing its work.

Speaking of corporations:

Shikoku (40%) has requested to form a coalition board over Kintobor Corp. with Crimea (10.3%). A coalition board can prevent anyone who does not own shares from buying company goods, company shares, and adjust dividend rates. Shikoku has expressed that to avoid overpoliticisation of the company, it will only agree to dividend rate changes.

Belarus (40%) has requested to form a coalition board over Philanthropy, Inc. with the Union of China, who through its allies controls 7.4%, and the 501st, who through its clients controls 4%. Once more, to avoid politicisation, Belarus only wishes to adjust dividend rates with the two other countries.

==Bengal Civil War==

The Fifteen Colonies are now down to Thirteen. It is ironic that much British ancestry is in the bloodline of the Bengali leadership.

But no matter! Bengal wishes to defeat the rebels so that it may re-assert itself on the world stage.

Bengal makes use of the Khmer forces to defeat the rebels; it lets the Philippine Republic keep its forces at home to avoid undermining their defense.

First, however, Bengal tries the diplomatic approach. Well, velvet glove more accurately. It sends a swarm of spies to try and undermine the rebel leadership. The attempt fails, unfortunately, forcing the government's hand.

The Khmer air wings are ordered to drop bombs on the rebels first. 1 shot does the rebel fleet in; the brave pilots are lost.

With the rebel fleet disposed of, the Khmers have 4 air wings and 2 naval vessels to complement the Bengal Republic's 9 naval vessels. While 5 divisions are raised in the rebel capital, Bengal orders the taking of two other provinces that have defenders.

The Khmers take 5 provinces, defenseless. 1.286 million people are seized; due to displacement, 20,000 are lost. Bengal's industry drops 12 points due to the poor state the rebels have kept their territories in.

Bengal takes 4 more provinces undefended. 780,000 people are seized; 10,000 are lost. Bengal's Industry drops 10 points.

6 armies remain to assist. Bengal throws them all at the lone army protecting the 3 eastern territories.

Bengal wins, and each side kills 1 of the other's soldiers. 987,000 people are seized; 40,000 are lost, with 20,000 fleeing into Burma. 11 Industry is lost.

With the war in its final stages, Bengal once more closes off the Bay to non-local colonisation.
