A NEW EUROPEAN WAR

Georgia-Russia_794873c.jpg

A Russian Armored column headed towards Minsk

Minsk, The United Socialist Federation of Russia- Earlier this year, the European Concordat offered to Russia a mutual guarantee of Belarusian independence. Russia instead demanded that Belarus rejoin the Federation, and was refused. Seeing this refusal, Russian forces mobilized to overwhelm the Belarusian forces. Though better armed than they were formerly due to European subsidies, Russian forces were simply too large to overcome. A spirited defense of Minsk would delay the Russians for nearly two weeks before at last falling. However, their fight was not in vain. The European Rapid Reaction Force and Eurosquadron would come into the defense of Belarus, both in the skies and on the ground. Deploying from the Baltics, the Rapid Reaction Force would roll into Russia, helping destroy Russian airfields and cutting off the Russians from their supply lines. The Europeans have achieved air superiority over the region, while the Russians maintain a significant numbers advantage on the ground, though if they do not reconnect with their supply lines by the end of spring, the army will be more than likely to whither on the vine.

CUBA FALLS

ob_90df57_ebola-3000-soldats-us.jpg

US troops in occupied Havana

Havana, The United States of America- Calling its existence “a blemish on the entire Western Hemisphere”, General Westinghouse has launched a major invasion of the still Communist island. Using overwhelming airpower, both from sea and land bases, the US quickly wiped out the Cuban Air Force, allowing for the 1st Army, spearheaded by marine forces, to face a weakened foe. Havana was subsequently captured, though Cubans would continue to take potshots at US troops for weeks after the city fell. Though Havana fell, the Cubans, perhaps nourished from their long-standing hatred of the United States, rallied guerilla forces to harass the invading American troops. While the picture of a mother and child fighting side by side against the Yankee was excellent for propoganda purposes, the Cuban military was still in disarray from the initial American landing, and absolute air and armor superiority, the Americans were able to overwhelm the remainder of the island, and several government officials came forward to deliver Cuba’s official surrender. Though the war has officially ended, the Cuban people are still filled with hatred of the Americans, and several generals on the ground have recommended a heavy military police presence to keep the island subdued. Most experts believe that the island will have to become used to the American bootheel though, unless an outside power intervenes. Mexico, a long time Cuban ally, has loudly protested this “exploitative imperialistic Yankee invasion”, though as of now seems to be doing nothing to counter the US move.

CHINA EXTENDS CENTRAL ASIAN REACH

Chinese troops advance in Kyrgyzstan

Bishkek, The People’s Republic of China- In a show of military force, the People’s Republic of China invaded the small republic of Kyrgyzstan. The Chinese were forced to invade from the south on the only existing road between the two countries, and overwhelmed the small border guard. The Kyrgyz military had prepared for this eventuality, and due to the narrow path the Chinese were forced to take, the Kyrgyz were not only able to delay the invaders, but also inflicted a surprising amount of casualties. Despite the spirited defense though, the Kyrgyz were both outnumbered and outgunned, and soon the Chinese flag flew over Bishkek. However, the Chinese were not satisfied with just Kyrgyzstan. The 42nd Group Army had taken part in the invasion initially, but actually had a different primary objective. As the Chinese troops reached the Kazakhstani border, the 42nd Group Army went east instead to launch a surprise attack on Almaty, quickly taking the country’s largest city. However, the military of Kazakhstan was far better equipped than their Kyrgz counterparts, and with Kazakhstan possessing air superiority, they have been able to push the Chinese back, and some experts believe that Almaty could be retaken in the spring.

Luzon Taken
Manila, The New Japanese Empire

The New Empire of Japan has launched its bid to rebuild its empire with an invasion of the Philippines. First hitting Luzon, the Japanese were welcomed by a brutal and well-prepared Philippine Army. Though Japanese air superiority would cover the disorganized landing as best as it could, Japanese vehicles did poorly in Luzon’s more jungle terrain. The Japanese navy has wiped out the tiny Philippine navy, preventing large scale reinforcements for the defenders, but the Filipinos are more than capable of holding their own, while the Japanese are dreading the thought of continuing this island campaign.

Mozambique falls to African Federation
Maputo, African Federation.

Citing a ludicrous claim that Mozambique was harboring western mercenaries to keep the people in line with western interests, the African Federation quickly launched an invasion of the country. Wiping out the enemy air force and sending paratroopers north to delay any actions, the African Federation quickly overwhelmed the border to capture Maputo. Still shocked from the initial invasion, Mozambique’s military was in complete disarray, allowing for African troops to seize Beira without much resistance. With the fall of Beira, Mozambique’s remaining troops were forced to surrender, and now the other African countries look at the Federation with worry, wondering who next will be accused of “harboring western mercenaries”

West Africa seizes Sao Tome and Principe
Sao Tome, Federal Republic of West Africa

Looking to expand its reach, the West African Federation has decided to seize the island of Sao Tome and Principe. The islands were seized without much resistance, but many are questioning the decision to invade considering that the islands posses no economic value, and there are plenty of weak border states that the Federation could invade.

Nyanza invades Sudan!
Khartoum, Nyanza

Citing the long standing oppression of the Sudanese government over its people, Nyanza has launched an offensive to crush the warlord regime. A fast and intense mechanized assault drove towards Khartoum, with paratrooper units going ahead to disrupt the enemy movements. The Sudanese fought hard, but were eventually driven from the city due to the heavy armor of the Nyanzan troops. The Sudanese troops attempted a holding action to preserve Port Sudan, and though the fighting was intense, the Nyanzan troops were eventually able to overcome the Sudanese defenses, and with the fall of Port Sudan, the remaining government of Sudan opted to surrender.

(Nyanza: 1st Army; -1 Armor, -1 Paratrooper; +2 Stability)

Argentina conquers Uruguay
Montevideo, The State of Argentina.

Following a strange agreement with Brazil over the division of South America, Argentine forces moved to quickly overwhelm the small nation of Uruguay. Though the terrain was not the jungle that the Tigers are used to, the Uruguayans were no match for the overwhelming Argentine onslaught, and were annexed soon after Montevideo fell.

(Argentina; Tigers: -1 infantry, +1 Stability)

Australia takes Papua New Guinea
Port Moresby, Syndicalist Union of Australia

Seeking to protect the people of Papua New Guinea, the First Union Marines of Australia were deployed to bring the nation into line with Syndicalist ideology. The New Guineans were quickly overwhelmed, and were annexed into Australia’s Syndicalist state.

India crushes Nepal, Bhutan
Kathmandu, Republic of India

Seeing an opportunity with the Chinese preoccupied in the north, the Republic of India has determined that both Nepal and Bhutan would be easy targets for annexation. These peaceful countries, though with a small military, were able to use their mountainous territory to their advantage. The First Gorkha Rifles, though composed of marines, acquitted themselves well in combat, though the President’s Bodyguard had more difficulty, especially with vehicular breakdowns. The lack of air support also hampered the Indian troops, but in the end they were able to prevail, though there has been grumbling that casualties could have been reduced.

(India; 1st Gorkha Rifles: -1 marine; President’s Bodyguard; -1 mech, -1 artillery; +2 Stability)

Chinese naval program brings out government detractors
Nanjing, The People’s Republic of China

Though President Lun has won accolades for her expansion into Central Asia, the homefront has seen some detractors emerge as Chinese deficit spending has gone through the roof. A significant amount of credit has been taken out to expand the People’s Liberation Navy, the centerpiece being two new carriers. Though President Lun has insisted that the debt is manageable, she has faced opposition from all sides,each seeking to increase their own political power. For their part, the Chinese citizenry are willing to wait to see if Lun can fulfill her promises.

Canberra becomes major international metropolis
Canberra, The Syndicalist Union of Australia

Putting heavy investment into its international standing and city infrastructure, Australia has announced that its urban expansion project in Canberra has been completed. It is now one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world, and has a modern metro system and some large public green spaces. Foreign dignitaries have been impressed, and many are calling Canberra “the model of the modern city”

Update Notes:

Please be sure to read the rules. Army movements, NPC diplomacy and the use of new armies were the biggest offender. I apparently was not clear enough, but under ZERO circumstances will a newly created army be able to be used, whatsoever. Any orders revolving around them being used were not applicable.

NPC Super powers (ie; Mexico, Islamic State, ect.) will invade countries if they wish to do so. NPC Superpowers will not negotiate with outside powers. NPC minor countries will also not negotiate with outside powers. Please never ask an NPC to join you peacefully. They never will.

Fleets can only move 4 tiles per turn, as divided by the map.

Air Wings cannot be moved and used in the same turn.

If you don’t tell me to include an Air Wing on your assault, it won’t be used. You’ve been warned.

Nigeria’s color has been changed to Lime Green. You’re welcome.

SouthernKing did not send orders. He has 48 hours to confirm he is still here, or his nation (Indonesia) may be claimed.

Islamic State and Mexico are both available to be taken.
 
Yo, western europoors.

Russia's territory covers more than one-eighth of the Earth's inhabited land area and stretches across nine different time zones. It has been estimated that it would take half of China's national population just to completely secure all of Siberia.

Hope you're wearing your brown pants. And a winter jacket. And Stalingrad documentaries.

Hey, China, interested in Siberia? It'll relieve all your population pressure.
