The French Republic

1964 AD​

By the beginning of 1964 the rest of the worlds efforts in bringing peace between the Soviets and their allies and France and their allies had not worked. Every day tensions rose, and starting at the middle of 1963, France had begun to build up a secret coalition of nations, adding to NATO. Secret negotiations began in the middle of 1963 and ended at the beginning of 1964. The coalition involved:

FRANCE
ENGLAND
EGYPT
AMERICA
GERMANY
OTTOMAN (after fall of Communist government).
PORTUGAL
SPAIN
AZTEC
ROME
GREECE
PERSIA

The majority of the world was with NATO, while Japan and Babylon remained with the Soviet Union. Zululand was under allied control, and neutral as well as the Iroquois, China and Scandinavia. The Soviet Union did not ask for allies.

With tensions at their highest ever during the Cold War, and the Soviet Union and France unable to bear the tensions, the Soviet Union launches the first attack.

On 14 March 1964, at 3:00 PM French time, the Soviet Union bombs one of the nuclear submarines in French waters. Immediately following are 12 successive declarations of war against the Soviet Union and an immediate preparation for war by France and her allies.

The preparation for war by France was almost over by middle of 1964, all the while the Soviet Union preparing for an attack. The allies troops had almost arrived, and when they did,

Hell would break loose.

1964 AD​

The successful buildup of troops was critical to an allied victory. France wanted this campaign to be quick and concise, but all nations knew it would not be quick. France pulled troops out of the Ottoman territories as democratic control had been established and began to station hundreds of thousands of troops in nearby Germany. The following list is in order of the three major NATO countries and what they sent, and by how many troops they sent:


Germany is the main location of the Allied buildup.

ABSOLUTE TOTAL: 964,000 troops from the 3 major NATO nations. Combined with the power of the other allies the number reaches 992,000.

The biggest invasion force ever assembled is ready in Germany.

To be continued in the next part, when I figure out how to describe the invasion. :cool:
 
1965 AD​

With the biggest invasion force ever assembled in the history of this Civ world, with no hope for diplomacy, with the great powers and their allies of the world ready for war, there was no more waiting. The world waited for the almighty conflict to begin, the neutral nations stepped back and TV's around the globe were fixated on pictures of Soviet cities and of the German border. The world was silent, from households to government buildings, from city squares to shopping malls, from large countries to small island nations. Cities were reduced to silent ghost towns, their people watching large television screens in city squares and tuned in to radios broadcasting images and sounds of an impending war.

As the clock struck 4:00 AM, the order from the NATO governments was given to commence the invasion.


NATO invasion of the Soviet Union

Pictures being transmitted live from Russian cities such as Smolensk, Odessa, Tbilisi and Yakutsk erupted with pictures of explosions and destruction.


A well known example of the live broadcasting being watched around the world of First News Station, one of America's broadcasters at the time. The Invasion of the Soviet Union was the first major story for this network. :)mischief:)

The first city to get hit by the overwhelmingly massive allied invasion force was Odessa, which the allies bombed with overwhelming strength and stability. The seemingly endless ferocity of the bombings in which 99% of the military protecting Odessa was completely and utterly wiped out of the city brought the city to it's knees.

The allies made huge gains in the Soviet Union, some times encountering massive pockets of resistance. The war was the first one that was watched by extensive numbers of people, the opening stages of the war was broadcast live to hundreds and hundreds of millions of people.

The Cold War had become a Hot War.

I like where this is going! Keep up the good work. ;-)
 
1965 AD​

The opening stages of the largest invasion ever undertaken in the history of this Civ world was coming to a close. NATO troops had swept across the southern plains of the Soviet Union with ease, however sometimes encountering massive resistance. The Soviet troops were up ahead, there was no doubt about it. The allies were prepared for such an attack, and the massive air superiority over the supposedly well defended skies of the Soviet Union helped bring down most ground troops in the Soviet Union.


Initial allied gains from the 1965 invasion of the Soviet Union

The Allies wished not to further progress into the Soviet Union, as they feared losing to many men and stretching to thin. The Soviets territory had been conquered to easily, and there was no doubt of a massive Soviet contingent either heading towards the Allied bases and allied-captured cities or lying in wait. The territory they captured was then secured and well defended.


NATO progression into the Soviet Union

After NATO forces had been rebuilt and regrouped, 'NATO Force 1' was sent out to make further progression into the Soviet Union, two cities were captured. Then Stealth Bombers caught sight of the massive Soviet forces heading for the allied troops. The bomber was nearly destroyed, but managed to escape, bombing some of the Soviet troops. The allied troops were warned and they prepared themselves.

The first attack from the Soviet contingent happened relatively fast, with the NATO troops winning. Three more successive victories occurred for NATO, then they lost a fight and some of their troops were overrun. However, Sea-to-land bombing eliminated these troops and ground troops quickly swept in to re-secure the land.

Then a Cruise missile attack by NATO eliminated half of the troops.


NATO Cruise missile attack. (note: proportions of size of attack are wrong, and it says ICBM, it was a cruise missile.)

The Soviet troops were overrun and destroyed in a very bloody and fierce fight, but a total victory in that battle for NATO, nonetheless.

Allied gains now look like this:

1966 AD​

With victories so far in the Soviet Union allowing NATO to capture almost half of the Soviet land, preparations were made to make a full out push north to Moscow.
The path would not take them directly to Moscow, and other cities would have to be captured before the actual assault on Moscow was to take place.


Allied route north to Moscow

The allied offensive begins in the early hours of February 2, 1966, and in the early stages it is a success. Only a few battles with the Soviets. But then Stealth reconnaissance aircraft report a massive Soviet counterattack ahead, and the NATO troops are given the order to continue on.


Allied troops and Soviet counterattacks

The counterattack is a success for the Soviets. Most NATO troops are eliminated east in the Soviet Union and in response a massive bombing campaign gets underway and some of the Soviet troops are eliminated, however the Soviet Union has gained territory in East Soviet Union.

However, on a brighter note, the NATO troops make significant gains in West Soviet Union in response to the Soviet capture of most of East Soviet Union. The first assault on Moscow will not take place this time. However, NATO begins the bombing of Moscow, and some city defenses are destroyed in and around Moscow.

Allied gains now look like this:

1967 AD​

The MAD decision hadn't even come in to play during the early years of the war. But then it occurred to France they could use Nuclear weapons to eliminate large contingents of Soviet forces and take cities easily. The first such attack occurred on June 23, 1967.


French Nuclear Attack

The first Nuclear attack eliminated virtually half the Soviet troops in East Soviet Union.
French ground troops eased in and retook East Soviet.

Then the Soviets launched their own missile:

However, it was largely inefficient as the missile landed in territory which Soviet ground troops would not be able to sweep in and take. Nevertheless they tried and failed.

Allied gains now look like this:

1967 AD​

The Allies decided to make a large sweep north. Amassing some 200,000 troops ready, NATO first went ahead with Cruise missile bombings to eliminate excess Soviet troops, then the air bombing campaign was launched, then an ICBM attack, then the ground invasion.


Allied route north

The bombing campaign proved extremely successful, almost all Soviet troops were eliminated. However, NATO did lose large amounts of troops on the way to the Moscow region.

The NATO troops fought and fought any uprisings of Soviet troops in their area, and soon the area was under control and secured with forts. Soviet cities were captured, troops were regrouped and rearmed. Bases were established and new military units were produced each day. The Soviets had had 2/3 of their land lost to the allies, who were in control completely of the 2/3 of land they occupied.

The Soviet nuclear arsenal appeared to be non-existent, which was the icing on the cake for the NATO troops who could launch ICBMs, Tactical Nukes and Cruise missiles as they pleased from the air, sea and land.

Soviet ports were blockaded, economic embargoes were signed, and Communism was falling.

And the Soviet's allies did nothing.

1968 AD​

The Soviet troops by 1968 were officially losing the war against NATO. The amount of troops the Soviets had, compared to that of NATO, was extremely small. And although some Soviet counterattacks were successful in eliminating NATO troops, Nuclear missiles and ICBMs and Cruise missiles solved this problem for NATO.


NATO troops had arrived in force ready for the final assault against Soviet troops.

NATO troops began to amass across the entire landscape of the Soviet Union. More and more troops had begun to arrive in the Soviet Union, ready to prepare for the final assault in the Soviet Union.

The Soviet troops were encircled and had been run back to Moscow.

The assault opened up with 3 joint Cruise missile attacks.


Cruise missile strikes against the last remaining Soviet troops (Our gains are wrong, I used the wrong map :blush:)

The huge masses of NATO troops mobilized across the Soviet Union and began the siege of Moscow. There was no hope for the Soviet troops, they were simply outnumbered completely.

What made it worse for the Soviet Union was the announcing that Japan had left the Soviet-Japan alliance rendering it null and void. Babylon hadn't bothered to send their troops anyway, and I don't blame them.

After the assault, Moscow had been captured, along with other Soviet cities. Soviet troops had been eliminated and the Soviet Union collapsed.

Allied gains:
