    Cameras from all the paparazzi and journalist nearly blinded him. His name was unimportant, merely his cause. Walking down a corridor in a sleek George Armani suit, with sunglasses on. Venetian, he was the chosen spokesmen for the rebels holed up in the Alps. Alongside him walking and talking quietly was the Italian Republic People's Front, the influential political organization. They came to meet on even terms in Rome, to discuss things with the Italian King.

     

    "You have led us to a shameful defeat.... " .. "my king" the rebel leader added as an afterthought . "Your blunder in Iberia lost us useful lands, and even on the peninsula our people are not safe. I may want to kill you, hell even your family... but my political friend here politely slaps my wrist and says 'bad'."

     

    Clearing his throat and stepping in, the politician smoothes things over; "My king, the Italian people see you as a vain and greedy man. But more importantly and less known to Italians, a coward. We see what you are, not wanting to face the Islamic Caliphate. Yet right after their shameful defeat, you gleefully throw an army into a foreign war alongside a fellow pack of Europeans. All these nations yammering, staying safe in a pack. Well if you really must insist on this pack, at least make our great nation Alpha."

     

    Making a point, the rebel points in

     

    "Not without our own terms of course. Surrender the country to the people, and we will relent. Do not give power to our politicians, or their currently rebel army, but to the people. They wish to be heard in a senate, and lead from there. You sadly must leave, but maybe one day a child of yours could become the president. Your so called rebels will take the Italian army and reshape it into a tool, one of utter conviction."

     

    Trailing off, the two waited for the King's reply as his nation erupted into shock over the announcements on national television.

    The Order of St. George makes some headway in the Indochinese Union conversion. The Union is perhaps a bit more friendly, a bit more christian. What they presented was a toe-hold, maybe even less so, to meddle in Asia.

     

    Even though French people were supposedly part of the German Empire, which in it's greater part the Imperium, they could still resent foreign troops. Yes they needed protection from the FLA and other radicals, but no one liked a foreign solider on their land. Martial Law being declared in areas also gave them reason to grow scared. This showed their government was openly saying what a threat the FLA could be. They would not openly fight, most didn't even secretly. But they began to grow scared, maybe now more prone to help the FLA then harm. Who knew what a cornered frenchmen would do.

    Brazil's final stronghold has fallen, and with it their resistance. CPNA troops filled the cities to the brim, making sure no one got too ahead of themselves. In the country side mobile infantry set up patrol routes to keep outlying districts safe. The other side of the patrols coin was to remind the Brazilians who was in power now. The jungles were still hotly contested for, but the rebels fought more for green then nation now. It would take time, but the CPNA would root them out. Brightsword is thanked for their service in Brazil, and sent a secret dossier for their next job. The jungles destroyed in the war are being healed, but it would take time. Oil however was not in a short supply as CSA companies move in. Primarily off-shore, they would help increase CSA oil production. With the U.S shattered, they had no oil deals outside of T.R.A.C. Seeking to change that, north and south american countries are offered trade pacts. As a sign of further good will to the american nations as a whole, the Panama canal's exceedingly high tax is lowered for all American nations trading with a fellow American. Argentina is called to the table with CSA, wishing for friendship. They offer full trade, open borders, and a defensive alliance. Oil deals are also offered to the Imperium Britannia, but are asked to keep the oil for their own use, not that of the Germans or any other European.

     

    In North America, war had descended on the continent. A half hearted Russian cause remained, but not one without teeth. The rumored Sons of Liberty in Ohio filtered to the CSA, but for now they considered themselves the ones to deal with it. Troops mustering on the border for some time move out now, supply routes having been established. Primarily on the east coast, they crossed into U.S land peacefully. Most army units greeted their CSA comrades warmly, and joined them or sent them on their way. The Russian-American heart of corruption however was Washington D.C. They had actual loyal army units there, along with fanatics crowding the streets. The going got tough as the CPNA got closer, Russian-American's dogging their paths and striking out at weak links. Actual army regiments engaged them shortly after, and the CSA generals lived up to their tactic minds.

     

    The CPNA army would halt well away from D.C, slowly liberating the land from the Russian-Americans. As the army moved on them, a force of ten thousand mobile infantry is sent to engage them. Keeping constantly moving, trying to bend around advances and take strategic points they would be a thorn in the enemies side. As the Russian-American army became bogged down with the mobile infantry, the air force would screech in, trying to clear the area. Paratroopers newly outfitted with Dominion jetpacks would deploy and follow the same strategy as the mobile infantry. Accurate shelling would hit advanced Russo-American columns, advanced drones locating them for the crews. 

     

    After all this harassing and skirmishing, the CPNA's main army would swoop in like a hammer. The advance unites had halted any clear lines of advance, muddling the whole fight. Now the CPNA army would come in with their full force, having the advantage of being well formed and prepared. Rail-gun tanks with their attendant companies supported by CPNA rangers would hit the thickest fighting on main roads. The rest of the army would focus on taking towns and slowly pushing the Russo-American army back. As the advance continued to D.C, the fighting grew much worse...

     

    In the mid-west, a particularly obsolete area to the Russo-Americans, the CSA would try to break through. If their advance of some one hundred thousand men advanced well north to Canada, they would snip the U.S in two. Resistance was less intense, and Mobile Infantry mainly comprised of the army. They would make good time to Canada, with supply outfits following behind them. The CSA navy would try to dominate the east coast, not really needing any large elements. 

     

    In the Pacific however, a large CSA fleet has been gathering at Panama for some time. A iron fist of heavy rail-gun frigates, accompanied by frigates, advanced destroyers, carriers, and a pack of submarines. They would sail clear of Hawaii, but close enough to be noticed on their way north. Besides blocking Russian supplies and troops to America, the CSA would aggressively patrol their waters. Resupplying in the Dominion, they kept their presence constant. The navy would be a reminder to all the nations warring on Russian-America, a clear reminder there are true and powerful Americans on the continent.

    The people of Italy were pissed, deadly so. The Italian government had blundered so horribly in Iberia, and with the Caliphate. They had demanded action, root out the Islamist scum from their very own peninsula! The government has ignored them, and had the audacity to go ahead and throw their people into another war, with Russia. Would they blunder with this too? Would they give up their lands again, and submit to them? The Italians had to many unanswered questions, and the time to rise was now. Supported by the pope who condemned the inaction against the Caliphate, the Democratic Italian People's Front forms. A resistance group both illegally and legally, they would now heavily oppose the Italian government. The DIPF as it is called voted members into the senate, trying to impress their views. In the Alps, an armed resistance movement is growing. Supplying themselves, it would be a matter of months before they decided to ask. The Italian general and his army sent to make war to Russia send back a blunt refusal. Half the troops vowed to only go to war to retake Italian land, the other half either aligned to the DIPF, or not wanting another stupid war. With the lack of Italian troops attacking Russian Ukraine, the southern assault would falter. ((Heff not letting you rarely -if ever- post, but go ahead and make a quick post which is just a bare minimum stating you're attacking Russia.))

     

    In Germany several political parties gained large amounts of seats in both political branches of Germany. Mainly the Die Links, People's Party, French National Front, Kaiser's Political Support Initiative, and the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy. In both houses, the political parties were roughly divided right down the center when it came to their views on the Kaiser. They all agreed on one thing however- elevating their power and role in the Empire. In the first round of law making, they set laws to limit the Kaiser's tax, military, and domestic power. They would try to make him less a domination of their country, and more a friendly figurehead. Sure he still had the power to deny any law, but the longer he slashed both houses laws, the more they would grow to resent him. They respected the empire, but wanted Germany to be more democratic and have a federal level that tried to help them.

     

    The loss of the rainforest in South America has finally had enough time to take effect. Along with CSA restrictions on what lumber is left, nations were running out. They would have to find alternate ways to make things generally done with lumber.

  4. Confederate States of America

     

    The war in Brazil was almost done, yet celebration is sparse. The cost of the war had been high, more in damage of material then men. Already the lack of rainforest was hurting world lumber trade. Thankfully this land had been nationalized, and secure CSA companies running the show. Besides what land rich in oil, the reforest would begin to be replanted. Deforestation would not be tolerated in the restoration campaign, CPNA troops sent to guard the jungles. The CPNA prepare for a final offensive, trying to completely encircle the last of the Brazilian army. Content to sit tight and shell them into dust, the CSA does just as planned. Every day more artillery is moved in to gradually wear down the defenses. The Brazilians are offered one last chance to surrender and flee after surrendering their arms through a safe cordon. The CPNA in other parts will establish themselves as they try to take full control of the nation. Resting after the war and trying to resupply, the troops were kept their for now. Brazil is accepted into the Confederation as a territory. With less rights then states, the CSA moved in to harvest the bountiful reserves of oil off the coast.

     

    Things on the American continent are spiraling out of control. First a merger is claimed, and the whole world gears up for war. Now the Russians try to back down, but still keep their grasp on America. The CSA has long since planned to not let foreigners meddle in American land, and meant it. A large fleet is to be gathered at Panama, and troops stream north. Positioning large amounts of CPNA on the U.S/CSA border, they wait for orders. The U.S was descending into anarchy, and the CPNA would move in to restore peace if needed. Russia is bluntly told it would not be allowed to keep it's claim to Alaska. No foreigner is to be allowed to move into American soil, they are told. Let go of Alaska and let it run as an independent state, with the choice of joining the CSA. If not it can very well lead to war.

     

    With Brazil subdued, Paraguay and Uruguay are asked to join the Confederation peacefully. It can go without saying they would notice the looming giant right over their border. They have the choice of potential invasion, or entering a Confederation that would see their rights protected and make them rich. In Columbia, rebel groups are allowed to flee into the borders of Ecuador and Peru. CPNA forces chase right after them, actually fighting in the foreign nation's land. This would enrage the two South American nations and potentially lead into them declaring war. ((mod))

     

    The CSA stone-wall ship has been completed. Alongside the advanced destroyers they would help move forward CSA naval power. Stone-Walls would be old nuclear carriers outfitted to support a larger then normal rail-gun. With the nuclear energy to supply it, they could support devastating weaponry. Siege ships, they would be for decimating naval formations and bombarding cities. The advanced destroyers had all of the CSA's advanced technology, making them slightly better. The Dominion's offer of their jet packs for U.S technology is finally accepted. The CSA would further more ask for access to the production of handheld rail guns. With no other projects to tie up funds, the CSA government drafts a new project. All of their time and money would go into the upgrading their navy such as the Japanese were. Adding advanced hull plating, implanting sophisticated AI targeting systems to run the aerial defense weapons, advanced submarine detection systems, and other secondary additions. The CSA would up it's naval game, putting it back up with the Japanese, or perhaps further. The new addition to the entire navy would be the implementation of DROP systems. Tubes covered by armored plates that open would shoot small submersible vessels at high velocity speeds. Able to carry twelve marines in each, they would be shot underwater and keep going with their momentum. Activating secondary propulsion systems to get every last bit of speed, they can punch through ships hulls with ease. The front of the vessel had laser cutters, a drill, and heat guns that would soften up the hull just before impact. Cutting edge boarding technology, research begins immediately.

    In Germany, the people were growing discontent. They certainly were not near the point of rebellion, they knew what would shortly happen after that. Instead they worked within legality, forming various political groups. Some were primarily Islam, advocating for equal rights or more radical thoughts. Others were french independence or equal treatment groups. The last distinctive group were Germans themselves concerned with their leader. Elections had no set date, and these people sought to change that. They wanted their people to acquire seats in the Reichstag to press their views. They protested against the German government, demanding a set date of three months time before elections would be held in all German held land. They wanted explanations of what the shocking interview with the German troop revealed. What was really going on in the army, and abroad? Answers were needed to placate these potentially powerful political groups springing up.

     

    The people of Italy are outraged, they were dragged into a war to fight the Islamic Caliphate. Not only did their Iberian offensive fail, but the Caliphate invaded actual Italian Peninsula soil. The people were scarred, but more angry at their leaders meek surrender. Why start a war only to end it on worse terms, giving peninsula soil to the accursed Caliphate. They clamored that the Italian government should act, and some were more vocal with their demands then others. A serious opposition against Italy's government was beginning to form at their inaction and failure against the Caliphate.

  6. Confederate States of America

     

    Jamaica, Guyana, Suriname enter the Confederation as states, and celebrations are prepared. Jamaica wished for the economic power the CSA could bring it. The two South American states sought protection from what could be a German threat. They were scared of the increasing explosions and rumors traveling across the border. Being almost completely surrounded by the CSA also helped them make up their minds, but all three joined of their own accord. The national government allows lowered taxes for the three as they try to catch up to other state's levels. Following their new states concerns, CSA spies are dispatched to German held South America to find out what's going on. The Commonwealth of Afrika's proposals are met, and the CSA dispatches a force to Africa. Ten thousand of their finest troops would arrive with their needed supplies for building small forts and garrisoning them. They would offer their expertise of jungle warfare, and train in the desert alongside TRAC soldiers. A small naval contingent composing of a heavy rail-gun frigate, three frigates, and six destroyers would stay with the troops. They would help guard the coast, and confront piracy.

     

    A lot of South America's jungle now was in CSA hands. Intending to protect the dying environment, the jungles are nationalized. Foreign logging companies are kicked out, and more moderate and restricted CSA logging moves in. Trying to monopolize the lumber industry, the CSA drafts a heavy tariff on all lumber exports. The Panama canal tax is raised on non CSA lumber cargo, to further restrict other nation's moving of it in trade. With Brazil firmly blockaded, that left very few South American states left to sell their lumber. This would be felt across the world with foreign nation's forest shrinking, and their sudden cut of lumber from South America. Europe would be hit particularly hard, running out of room and forest as it is. As an effort of goodwill to the other South American nations, the CSA offers to form one large lumber company for South America. They would share the profits, and safely harvest from the jungles.

     

    The war in Brazil was escalating, as the push south was planned to increase. Most of the north now lays in CSA hands, with large city garrisons clearing out outlying countryside. Jungle fighter units and Californian specialist continue their wars in the jungle, slowly clearing them out. The small troop detachments sent south probe deep, trying to draw the Brazilians into battle. The order is given and the first line of one hundred thousand troops begin an actual advance. In the agricultural heartland of Brazil, they would make better time and have tanks and vehicles. A further one hundred thousand state militia advance with the first line as well, but are all focused to the western side. They would be the iron fist to punch through Brazilian lines, and then descend on them from the flanks and rear. Coastal landings increase in the south, as the CSA prepares for another coastal assault.

     

    For the olympics in England, the CSA would send a small team focused on fencing, running, and archery. They would primarily be from the various South/Middle American states, and a few from South America as well. The state of Cuba would graciously grant some of their finest cigars to the world leaders attending the olympics, as the CSA delegation will arrive to view the games.

     

    In an attempt to expand their oil trade, the CSA offers a new exclusive oil deal to Russia

  7. Confederate States of America

     

    The war in Brazil continues, with the fighting fierce on both fronts. Pushing south after navigating through the thick amazon, a primarily infantry army advanced. The CPNA was mainly supplied with what supply drops airplanes could do, and carrying them with CAMEL drones. Now with some parts subdued, supplies could be trucked down the main roads from Venezuela. To the east, the coastal invasion is making headway. With the new addition of two hundred thousand state militia, they could match the Brazilians. Cities would be taken and heavily garrisoned as the army continued on it's way, pincering the Brazilians fighting the CPNA coming from the north. The garrisons left behind would consolidate the taken land, and guard supply convoys streaming from the coast. What was happening in the northern waters was quite a different sort of affair...

     

    Admiral of the Atlantic CSA navy idly sits in his chair on the bridge. So far things had been boring, after the initial blockade and skirmishes. The Brazilian navy had gone to ground or been destroyed, a weak enemy. Now he and his officers idly guarded supply convoys heading to Venezuela and Brazil's coast. But a missive was sent to him an hour before lunch call, and was certainly interesting. He called up his signal men, and told him to send a message directly to the Confederate national government. It appeared the Imperium Britannia's royal navy were near Trinidad. Intercepted messages showed the Britts were over eager to wait for the CSA's choice on granting Trinidad, and were demanding it from Brazil. A message is soon sent back, and it had Admiral Stevenson grinning.

     

    His flagship was a heavy rail-gun class frigate, and he would take four others like it from the regular patrols. Eight destroyers would meet on the way to their point. Two carriers and their escort of three frigates, and five destroyers would also head out from Puerto Rico. Their entire point for such hasty maneuvering was to completely encircle the British's small naval detachment making demands near Trinidad. Pointedly keeping out of range and with their engines/weapons off, the CSA navy would merely remain a distance from the Britts. Submarines and advanced surveillance drones would ensure nothing sneaky happened as the navy stood idle.

     

    The Imperium is informed that the CSA wishes to purchase the submarine detection systems, and would accept the promise of whom and whom not to use it against. But they however would not allow the Imperium to take Trinidad as a territory. The navy was there to ensure the Imperium does not go ahead on it's threats to Brazil, and to safely escort them out of CSA water's as a guard of honor. 

     

    The Australian navy is greeted warmly at Panama, and they are asked to dock in a near by port before crossing the canal. A customary cargo check began, and the CSA resupplied the Australian naval detachment. Christian volunteers from all over Latin America heard of the glorious crusade going to Iberia, and flocked to join. Ill trained or disciplined, it was up to the Australian's to take on the extra troops before crossing the canal. Land rail-gun emplacements are scheduled to be built in overlapping fields of fire on both east and west coast of the middle americas. The growing nuclear industry would supply them, as solar roads and other green projects kept the public content. Serious oil expansion in South America continued, as more off shore rigs were built. All the oil has long been hoarded by the CSA, and only traded to the members of T.R.A.C. But with such a growing surplus, the U.S is offered an oil deal. Setting on a limit of their imports per month, the U.S could still potentially buy enough oil to stay afloat.

  8. Confederate States of America

     

    So far the CSA has only committed sixty thousand troops to the jungle fight, probing the Brazilian defense. Locating and destroying anti-air installations in the jungle, rooting out guerrillas, and taking control of the roads. Resistance was stiff but their measure was taken and the advance given. Moving through areas of the jungle cleared of anti-air and Brazilians by special forces, light infantry trek through the jungle under air cover. Nearly two hundred thousand stream through the jungle under guidance from jungle fighter units. They would move through the cleared cordons, entering into the more civilized heart of northern Brazil. Mainly agricultural lands now, the infantry were able to fight better back. Trying to draw the Brazilian's into open battle and smash them, they start to besiege the bigger cities in the north. 

     

    The coast of Brazil has long been blockaded and subdued, especially in the north. Five beachheads were cleared by rail-gun shelling, special forces, and air raids. The CSA naval invasion would begin with small waves of ten thousand to each beachhead. After clearing out softened resistance, they would push inward and set up defensively. The main bulk of the one hundred and fifty thousand man coastal invasion force would then land, infantry, vehicles, and tanks outfitted with rail-guns. They would move out to aid in the takings of the tamed land, while probing south to engage Brazilian forces not in the jungle there.

     

    The CSA called to the states to supply their State Militia to the CPNA efforts in Brazil, needing more troops. Most states answered the call, the size they send differing. Many sates near Brazil however kept their private armies close, fearing attack. All together nearly four hundred thousand troops were offered by the states. Half of them would begin jungle training in Columbia and Venezuela, while the other half are sent to aid in the coastal invasion. A new research project is set, the CSA wishing to improve their navy.

     

    Work would go into retrofitting destroyers to be far more deadly. Weaponry would be specialized in the killing of submarine and airplane. MTW's from the U.S would be outfitted on them, along with the Advanced Anti-air systems the CSA possessed. Missile systems would complete the aerial complement, as the U.K is asked to let the CSA help pay for advanced submarine detection systems in return for blueprints. An outdated nuclear powered carrier enters one of Haiti's numerous ship yards to begin heavy retrofitting and updating. Most of it would be striped and rebuilt, making the hull capable enough to hold and support a significantly larger then before naval rail-gun. The converted nuclear carrier would be a new heavy breed of war ships. It could supply itself and shoot from long ranged distances with accuracy. MTW and Advanced anti air runs along the ship, and a marine complement is garrisoned below. They are dubbed Stone-Walls, in honor of a long past Confederate general. ((Mod needed for approval and page time))

     

    Brightsword Defense Incorporated is contacted, the CSA hoping to persuade them to their deal. They offer the corporation to set shop in Puerto Rico, and have certain laws and rights so they can operate as they wish. Large tracts of land near the coast and in the jungle would be sold to them, and left to their own wishes. The CSA hopes the corporation would work closely with them, though still providing troops to other nations as well. They are offered a complement of a frigate, three destroyers, and five corvettes for use in the Caribbean/Atlantic only if they decided to agree. Part of their corporation's expenses would be paid for by the CSA, but wish for the corporation to be closely tied with them. They are hinted at the chance for expansion into the Caribbean. The corporation could do as it pleased, the CSA only wanted a close partner. A separate deal is the hiring six thousand special forces to aid fighting in the Brazilian jungle.

  9. Event Team Post

     

    Russia's people had their eyes opened rather suddenly to what Putin's regime had become. He has abandoned his people, simply vanishing. The army has lain dormant, refusing to even leave their barracks. Foreign invaders everywhere and yet no one has acted. Perhaps those far away from the conflict felt safe, felt as if it could be avoided. Maybe the rich saw themselves as safe locked away in their private estates, deep in the motherland. Others saw differently, ones directly in the conflict. Others had opened their eyes just now or a long time ago, it did not matter. What did matter was that they were open.

     

    Many loyal socialist had lived peacefully in the Baltic Sea Confederation, simply trying to get by. They were rejected their homeland, sent out on the basis of their heritage. Many of these lost souls found themselves back in Russia, but their loyalty to the Confederation gone. They had re-set their lives, growing into the normal patterns of living once again. But not their new government failed them, and the one from the past yapping at their heels again. These people rose up, not ready to see it all happen twice. Socialist rebels, anarchist, political groups, merchants, peasants and a multitude of attached members formed the United Russian Socialist Front. A single organism works better, and they at first acted under legality. They preached Russia now more then ever has to reunite, to stand strong against so many draining their lives away. This thought spread quickly, it was already what many thought.

     

    Influential generals attached themselves or worked with the URSF, sickened at their government's inaction. For weeks it all spread, and finally the spark was struck. Moscow under siege, their capital. The collective groups and every other sick with what was happening rose, all coordinated well by the URSF. The government was technically still there, but has long since been a few terrified desk clerks all that was left. Some still felt a loyalty to the old 'Russia' and chose to fight for that thought. But the idea of uniting under an effective ideal that was proving to be true was strong. The army was with the rising, and for once in the last few months moved out from their barracks. Many thought twice about fighting for the already vanished old Russian government, but the army changed that. They had lain dormant and besides for border forces were largely in-tact. All the invaders seemed to forget one of the world's most important history lessons, you don't invade Russia.

     

    The Socialist Republic of Russia was formally established, and their control spread from east to west. Granted many parts of Russia remained dark, or loyal to 'old' Russia, but the URSF were the ones in power. Socialist reforms began to filter in, but for now are put off for more serious matters. The generals leading the rising are soon flown all throughout Russia, along with their officers. Troops from every Russian army garrison are contacted, from the largest city to the dingiest mountain village. They are told to muster at certain points in the heartland, and for the most part they followed through. Even more recruiters streamed from the center of Russia. The people were told of the new government, and the war that was tearing them all to ash. The call to arms was strong, and a patriotic people enlisted in droves. Tens of thousands were tucked away to training camps in Siberia, to be readied for war.

     

    The army was mustering in the middle of Russia, safe from any foreign aggression. Besides the main mustering, regiments are sent in force to the east. With the coming of winter, times would be hard. The siege on Moscow will be brutal, as more and more Russian army units pour in to help reinforce and relieve it. Winter begins to kill more then the fighting, especially on the German side. Guerrillas and well trained army units slip in behind the Baltic Sea Confederation's advance. They had bull rushed into Russia and winter was upon them. The army merely swept wide of their advance then cut into their behind. They would cut supplies, and raise the country behind the BSC. Unless large detachments were sent after them the troops would kill off any left behind, taking the land back. Forts not destroyed in the haste of the blitzkrieg are remanned, becoming strongpoints for resistance fighters and army units alike.

     

    The Socialist Republic of Russia makes a public announcement to any invading from the east.

     

    "All your garish terms are denied, we are not a people on our knees anymore. You will be resisted and then beaten back if you truly desire war. IF you want peace then we will attend a peace summit on equal terms. Lay before actual terms, and maybe a solution can be solved. Otherwise, waste away your mens live's for soil not your own."

    The tensions with Brazil spiraled out of control with escalating skirmishes. Confused reports came back about a medium sized navy battle, CSA sailors claiming they were fired on. They had the bullet marks to show on the hull, but it was all muddled. It was enough to fabricate a basis of war however, what with already high tension. The CSA navy had been mustering and the order to move came. For long they had been blockading Brazilian trade, keeping their navy divided and pent up in different ports. Now acting on that division, detachments of frigates, destroyers, and corvettes each escorting a heavy rail-gun frigate went to different Brazilian military ports. Not allowing the Brazilian navy to re-form into greater numbers, the rail-gun frigates would blast away the ships in their harbor from a distance. Advanced anti-air systems kept the planes off, as advanced drones darted in to kill ships and anti-air points that couldn't possibly match the drones height. The rest of the detachment would keep hostile ships from getting too close and interrupting their mission. Following this divide and conqueror naval strategy, a large detachment held back. They would be used if needed, but other then that guard the troop and supply transports filtering in. The navy still growing in CSA ship yards begin to be retrofitted with the U.S MTW's. As promised they kept the technology to themselves, only helping out their own navy.

     

    To the north, on the Brazilian border with Venezuela, the long mustering troops were ordered to attack. Drones and heavy artillery softened the long entrenched Brazilian lines, as CPNA forces moved under the covering fire. Heavy tanks fitted with rail-guns and followed by large armored detachments would support the main infantry advance. The first wave of nearly one hundred thousand troops would crash into the Brazilian line and engage them. Bogging them down with artillery and infantry, the promised tank detachments and CPNA reinforcements moved up. They struck with surgical precision at the weakening points in Brazilian defense, snapping the line. The tattered remnants fled into the jungles, or further into Brazil. In effect the border was in CSA hands, and the order to push in is given. Able to move quickly with CAMEL drones carrying their supplies, troops probed further into Brazil. Jungle fighters from Panama, Cuba, Puerto Rico, and all the middle American states were sent to hunt out military units embedded in the jungles.

     

    Most of the CPNA had been fighting in South American climates and ecosystems for years, all familiar with jungle warfare. This proved as their advance went smoother then planned. For now the northern Brazilian cities would be held by large CPNA garrisons. Half a hundred thousand men were probing south and east to the coast, as the other three and a half hundred thousand pacify the north and prepare for another battle. The CPNA was content to secure the north, and wait for the Brazilians to lick their wounds and bring the battle to them. Supplies flow in from the highways leading to Venezuela, and the thin strip of CSA held Brazilian coast to the north east. The air force launches operations from bases in Venezuela, and carriers in the ocean. Their target is to support the CPNA troops probing south and east, while covering the newly made lines.

     

    Religion seemed to be on the rise in the CSA, though the national government ignored it for now. Freedom of worship was given in all states and territories, and one gaining more followers then the other should not be warranted just yet. However CSA citizens going off to fight in Iberia was a whole different matter. Those citizens went on their own choice, but were still at risk of dying in Islamic Caliphate hands. They could only wring their hands and watch the citizens go, supplying them with what non-violent things they could use. Secretly however, the CSA enters the operations being run by the NCR, offering specialist forces to be seconded under the NCR for whatever purpose in Iberia. Their goal was to help cut off Islamic and terrorist expansion, especially if it meant the death of their citizens off to fight being avoided.

     

    The CPNA was to be overhauled, as army tactics were becoming more increasingly surgical in manner. The CPNA was not the largest, but they were well equipped, and veterans of many wars in the Americas. Their officers and generals were fine men, clever rather then overt. The Ranger corps is to be comprised of mobile infantry veterans, outfitted in lightweight and flexible armor. They would handle covert operations, complex and fast maneuvering, and other essential strategic laden objectives. Their vehicles were lightly armored but fast moving APCs. The regular CPNA infantrymen would be outfitted with the same light armor, and be well supplied with their attendant CAMEL drones. They would do the bulk of the fighting, working in well drilled squads, platoons, companies, and higher up. They were the best led, the cream of the officers and veterans being given to them. The Confederate Steel Regiment would be top of the class veterans from the infantry. Outfitted in heavier armor, and given more specific and harder weaponry. They were shock troops, capable of killing infantry and vehicle alike. Depending on their armaments they'd specialize in one or the other, and always be in the front providing tactical support. The para corps would be troops dedicated to the air. On parachutes and other types of transport planes and helicopters, they would land into the thick of the fighting. Specializing in hitting hard and fast in strategic points, they'd be crucial to tipping the balance in CSA favor. The Jungle Fighters Battalion would be a mix of Americans, all veterans or natives of the jungle. In normal armor to avoid encumbrance, they were a rough and hardy troops dedicated to jungle warfare. They would do the dirty work, and excelled at sneaking troops and themselves through the jungle to where the enemy least expected it.

    Columbia has fallen to the CSA, after a long and drawn out war. The push from the coast and east crumpled the resistance, and the taking of the capital sealed it. Columbia is accepted into the union as a territory, the former leaders keeping marginally smaller power but still alive. The CPNA largely remains, helping keep the peace and root out any resistance. More and more regiments are sent to the border with Brazil however, as they gear up for the possible coming war. Nearly three hundred thousand men fortified that border, with another hundred thousand planned to be on their way. The CSA navy still holds Brazil's coast under blockade, as they slowly inch forward. The activation of the CSA's entire navy led to more numbers adding up to the blockade. Brazil was outraged, but wearily kept their navies docked.

     

    The recent wave of aggression to the U.S baffled the CSA. They had invaded Canada and now stupidly brought foreigners to American shores. Canceling everything but trade agreements with the U.S, the CSA begins to keep a closer eye on their borders. Troops patrol it, but no large mutterings are sighted or planned. On the other hand in a last nod to their former friends, the CSA prohibits any nation at war with the U.S from moving military ships through the Panama canal. Trade could continue at it's ever increasing tax, but the CSA would not stand allowing foreign war ships to pass through just to ravage America.

     

    The recruitment drive continued as ever, and the CPNA was almost at their one million man goal. Their economy was booming, solar roads and other green projects all finished, and oil pouring in from their increasing influence to the south. The people were content, and patriotic to not just their state but staying unified to stay alive. Each CPNA troops would be sent off in armor and well equipped for making war. The navies marines are given advanced forms of the armor, and trained endlessly to keep them on par with the navies standards. It was said the CSA navy was the best and largest in the world, and this was almost certainly true. With rail-guns, anti-air, and advanced drones to help them, they showed their human skill as well.

     

    China's deal is denied, the CSA having promised the NCR not to give the technology away.

  12. Hey guys, I've noticed a sort of slowdown in activity as of late. I'd like to know why that is. Is it because people are just gone due to school or otherwise? Or are you just not having any fun anymore? If so, what would you like me to do to help that? More events? Some sort of change-up? I do not want this FRP to die and to be honest I won't let it. So let me know what's up.

     

    I think life has to be harder for everyone. Like we need more responsive events to hinder/help those who need it. Granted it's hard for just our holy lord Pok to do it, so maybe a reliable event team or your mod underlings should set out to do more.

     

    For example, The Islamic Caliphate slaughtering willy-nilly in Iberia should raise a lot of rebellions and outrage against their occupation. On the other side of the coin, the St. George order being..well christian, would drive Islamic members into the Caliphate's hands.

  13. Confederate States of America

     

    The coastal invasion of Columbia began, nearly ten thousand troops in the first wave. They would take what little was defenses left from the rail-guns, and secure the beach. After that more troops would stream in, until forty thousand were mustered. Well supplied, they push forward into Columbia. Attempting not to cause too much damage or civilian casualties, but not backing down if it paid off. Meanwhile from the east the advance into the core of Columbia continued. They had broken the enemies lines, and were pushing through hard. Units coming behind mopped up the remnants and secured land. Columbia was being pinched from two sides, and lost all of it coast. It would only be a matter of time until they fell, it became clear the CPNA would conquer.

     

    Two hundred thousand newly arrived troops in Venezuela are moved to Brazil's border. They begin to build fortifications, and supplies stream in. Newly arrived camel drones carried the majority of the supplies, fueling off of solar energy. The CSA's navy receives another complement of rail-gun frigates, and heads for Brazil's coast. Seizing distant off shore oil drills, the marines would hold the crews hostage. Hoping the Brazilians would react, the CSA navy doesn't stray far as it sends out advanced naval warfare/surveillance drones. Any movement sighted would result in the navy pulling back, to better form for a battle. 

     

    Solar roads now ran through most of the CSA, and were already paying for themselves. Oil consumption was at an all time low as going green and strict rationing increased. All forms of renewable energy were prominent in each state, supplying much needed energy. The CSA navy has been under constant expansion and updating since the rebels became politicians. First with the help of Japan, then on their own in major ports, the navy was their best weapon. Thanks to tucking away most produced ships, cost was kept down. But now the government needed those ships, and activated them and their attendant crews. Streaming from their harbors of Cuba, New Orleans, Haiti, Puerto Rico, and Dominica swelled the navies ranks. A new carrier, two rail-gun heavy frigates, and ten destroyers bolster the Panama canal's standing navy. Five frigates, eight destroyers, and two submarines head off to aid in the Brazilian blockade. The rest begin to muster en masse at Cuba's western harbor. Under the protective eye of the rail-gun installation, they wait.

     

    Recruitment drives had brought in thousands of new troops. Now as many came from Latin America, the Caribbean, as did from North America. Serving together formed bonds of camaraderie, helping ease cultural differences. The CPNA implemented a new battle code language, that all members would learn. Erasing the different language barriers, and ensuring they had a fluent and well made new language for all. Most troops were armored in light weight, flexible, and advanced HUD type armor. They had modern weapons that increased accuracy with technical targeting and ranges from the HUD. Heavy tanks were being retrofitted with small versions of the rail-gun. They were ready but untested and in small amounts. They begin to practice in Texan desert, as two are actually sent to fight in Columbia. Most troops were veterans, as the CPNA had a policy and the supply lines to rotate their troops. This policy continued in the present wars, letting troops rest before going back.

    It is announced to the world that Cuba is joining the confederation as a state peacefully, and celebration ensued. A key military island, the Confederacy now dominated the Atlantic. Railgun emplacements are planned to be built on the east and west tips of the island, to keep it safe. Honduras and El Salvador are admitted as states as well, but were taken forcefully. CPNA troops remain to keep the place safe, as they mop up the surviving cartels of all the conquered middle american states. The land in the CSA was now vast and diverse, and it truly was "of america' not just the north. People felt unified, but respected each other's state rights, leading to the perfect balance. CAMEL remote control supply conveyors are finished, and already implemented into the army. They were returned from a useless campaign, and ready for more. The CSA would stay out of world politics, but had worries of their own on the home front. Peace talks with Brazil and Venezuela are cut.

     

    Long having dominated Columbia's coast, the CSA navy starts up again. The cease fire was cancelled, and the beach lit up with shelling. Advanced naval drones picked out coastal defenses, and rail gun fitted heavy frigates smashed them to pieces form afar. The navy had long since been building up and retrofitted with the newest updates. This would pay off in any naval war with Brazil, as the large fleet is mobilized. Thanks to conserving and rationing, oil would hold out long enough to supply the military. Making reserves had payed off, as they were opened up to fuel the navy. Not technically at war with Brazil, the CSA does not declare it. Nevertheless they dispatch a navy to keep operations in the Atlantic safe. Four carriers, five heavy frigates with rail guns, twelve regular frigates, thirty destroyers, and ten submarines would halt any Brazilian naval actions. 


    On land, troops were being ferried into Venezuela from multiple fields.  They continued their ground war into Columbia, attacking through Venezuela from the east. Jungle fighting outfits would try to keep control there, as regulars marched in. Using artillery to shell ahead, CSA troops slowly ground forward in advance. Nearly one hundred thousand are committed to this offensive, as another three are planned to land in Venezuela to keep it safe. Their largest producer of oil was right there, and would keep them well supplied. After the whole sale destruction of Columbian coast, beachheads would be secured with marines. Paving the way for greater advances, CPNA troops start to build up for a coastal invasion.

     

    The Panama canal on both sides is guarded with a standing CSA navy, and nearly half a hundred thousand men are garrisoned there. Most would head south under direct naval support to begin a northern invasion of Columbia. Veterans recently done with fighting in middle america would filter south to aid the offensive. CAMELS made it much more possible to move large amounts of troops, solar powered drones carrying all there supplies right there. With advanced tracks, it could traverse most land but jungles hindered them. Airplanes launched from CSA carriers began to clear swathed of Columbian jungle, as troops landed in these clearings via helicopter. War was erupting on all sides with an enemy who attacked with surgical precision, it was only a matter of time until Columbia was forced to negotiate as the lesser power.

     

    At home the recruitment drive continued, CPNA numbers rapidly rising. They had the time to put their recruits through long training programs, that had them come out well prepared. Factories have been making millions producing the armor given by the Japanese, and it was sent off to Veteran units to wear. So much was being made that soon regular troops would have it too, adding to their list of advantages. Research goes into making a heavy tank, with the capability to be outfitted with rail-guns, which has already been studied by the NCR

  15. realflag.jpg

    It would seem the politicians had resolved the tension escalating in Africa. Not one to waste, CSA command ordered there forces in Africa to prepare to sale back home. Grumbling about just getting there, the first and second waves loaded back up onto ships and left. The Third and fourth waves just turned around and came back home much quicker. Things would hopefully ease up, and the strain on resources certainly would as the army dispersed. CPNA that had stayed in the west were ordered to stand to. The wars in Honduras start up again as the CSA focuses on home once again. Nicaragua has long been in their control, and is accepted into the CSA as a state. Venezuelans clamoring for statehood got it too, their state militia organizing. With oil rationing, and strictly enforced civil laws, the oil consumption rate was slowing down. To also help with this, the CSA cuts all oil trade deals, and only re-offers them to members of T.R.A.C. The Panama canal's tax is raised again, making it hard for non prosperous nations to travel through it. With the freeing of the navy in Africa, a large standing navy docks on both sides to guard it.

     

    The war in Columbia had long been stagnant. Not because of their forces, but the CSA had to deal with other more important issues. But now it could resume, if they wanted it. The coast was dominated by CSA navy, some retrofitted with rail-guns. CPNA troops had been pushing in from the east, pouring out of Venezuela. A beach head was planned to be made, if diplomacy failed. A CSA delegation opted to hold a conference between the CSA, Brazil, and Columbia. Offering to end the war in Columbia, the CSA instead wanted open trade, peace, and alliance. 

     

    Haiti, Dominica, and Puerto Rico have long been states, and were finally up to par. The CSA had been investing in ports and shipyards for some time, and it was paying off. The three states were making naval ships both for domestic and military use. With rail-gun technology, heavy frigates were also being produced. The navy for the most part stayed to the Atlantic and protected trade, while the rest stayed dock. Only in times of full war would the growing navy be used, the oil cost thus becoming lower. Following a long ago naval policy, oil is bought and stockpiled in already large stores. They would be for military use if the time came, and were well protected. Research goes into making a remotely controlled land drone dubbed a CAMEL that would have four legs built for most terrains. It would be able to run of it's builtin solar harvesters, and would have a hollow middle to store a good amount of supplies. It would take ((5 pages, mod approved)) a low amount of time, most of the technology already being there. 

     

    The CSA had long been going green, and it was coming together. Domestic energy consumption could now be said to be equal to oil consumption, and it was renewable. Particularly wind and solar energy was paying off, as more advanced ways to harvest it are sought. Solar Roads are planned to be built, ones that could collect sunlight all day. The energy harvested from them would pay of it's cost in a matter of years, then start to produce good amounts of energy to it's surrounding districts. Solar Car industries are planned to be expanded on as well, with limited oil for domestic use. In cities cars were all but unheard of now, trams, electric subways, and walking the norm. Where cars were needed, was where the solar renovations would first come. Small scale organic farming is endorsed, the CSA trying to keep it's local farmers supported along with a healthy local populace. Industrial farming would be left to the big corporations, to feed the masses, and be sold off to other nations. Pot was opened up to the states, most allowing it for medical uses.

     

    The CSA was a primary seller in food, natural resources, and technology. With T.R.A.C being one of the most stable and richest markets, there was always a place to sell their goods. With all the islands, middle and south american states, and oil wells, natural resources were flowing in. An Industrial south processed all these things into useful goods, and sold them at home and abroad. With the rain forest in south america being protected, the already blooming hemp industry reached a national level. Hemp and Pot, the future, some CSA politicians proclaimed. With all this Elijah Wintersun ended his six year term, and the second election rounds came up. People were torn, between the many candidates all preaching for different things. Finally it was weeded down to two, Mark Aybara, a man who wanted less national government, less of everything but states rights. The other was Thomas Grein, who was a Confederate radical to the bone. A firm supporter of staying united, he neither backed states or national. He preached isolation, a now common feeling int he CSA.

     

    In the end it was Thomas Grein who won the majority, and set to continuing the CSA on it's road. He did not let the states run out of the national leash, and it seemed they did not mind. Ever since they were a nation, the states understood the importance of staying unified on a national front. They had seen what happened to the last CSA with it's petty squabbles, and sought to avoid that. Thomas accepted the energy deal with the Commonwealth of Afrika, but besides that he kept the CSA silent. They would trade with most, but he was done with endorsing foreign involvement. Matters at home were important, and the potential war with the South Americans caught his eye.

    The first and second waves had reached Nigeria's coast, unloading their troops and supplies. Setting up in the camps waiting for them, CPNA troops gear up for desert warfare. Nigerian officers filter through their ranks, giving desert warfare and survival tips. One hundred thousand troops are soon moved from the camps to bolster the general line. The others would stay to await the unloading of CPNA vehicles, and train in desert conditions. The third and fourth wave would arrive soon, and after that the supply ships. After safely transporting the transport fleets, Confederate ships would set to guarding the Atlantic trade. Anti-air tracks are unloaded and dispersed through the lines, keeping the troops covered. 

     

    Back on the home front a recruitment drive starts, the national government recruiting from all states. Many flocked to the recruitment stations to join in a war against Islamist factions. They would primarily be trained in New Mexico and Texas, aquatinting them to harsh climates. A large garrison is kept in Venezuela to protect the increasing amount of oil companies moving in. Oil consumption is sought to be lowered. The national government urged the states to reduce their oil usage, appealing to the sense that it was for the war effort. Oil companies are increasingly given permits in states to drill, trying to squeeze every last barrel out of their production.

     

    The CSA was still in the process of going green, and was determined now more then ever. Hemp is becoming a big industry, it's multi purpose appealing to the government. This reduced the amount of rainforest needed to be cleared, and still profitable. Gaining 2/3 of state approval through war fever, the national government issued state wide oil restrictions. Besides public transportation, driving in cities was prohibited unless a license was purchased. The national high way limit becomes fifty five miles per hour, and citizens could not fill up tanks unless they were under 1/2 a tank. Nuclear power plants are planed to be built, in areas that had to be surveyed.

     

    The new states and territories in the south's output of raw materials was fed into industrial American cities such as New Orleans and Tampa. Selling to markets still available, a profit was made to help cover other cost. Agriculture and industrial goods became the main export, and a lot of the food was shipped off to Africa to feed the armies there. People sent care packages and letters to the soldiers, trying to keep their morale up. 

  17. realflag.jpg

    And so the Confederate's could no longer avoid the growing conflict in the Middle East and Africa. As a member of T.R.A.C they were obligated to go into action with their mutual allies. With all the wars settled in the south, troops were pulled from their positions. Fresh troops would rotate in from the homeland, garrisoning the new states and territories alongside state militia. Almost two hundred thousand veterans of the multiple small wars, they would muster in transports alongside the navy. Recently outfitted with rail-guns, three modified heavy frigates were ready to sail. Alongside them were three carriers, fifteen frigates, thirty destroyers, and twenty submarines. Thanks to the rotation of troops in the various theaters throughout the years, all CPNA had seen action. Ones in America fresh from R&R were called back to duty. Alongside them would be state militia from the various states willing to send their armies. Two hundred thousand of said men will soon be supplied, and sent in the third and fourth wave. 

     

    The first wave was mainly composed of ten destroyers, five submarines, and a detachment of three frigates to protect them. They would guard and set the course to Nigeria. Advanced naval warfare drones would range ahead, being the eyes of the navy. If any hostile ships lacking proper air defenses engaged, they would be sunk with hull breaking missiles.The second wave would be the three carriers, three heavy frigates with rail-guns, ten frigates outfitted with advanced anti-air systems, twenty destroyers, more drones, and ten submarines. The transports would come with them, divided into several smaller groups led by frigates and protected by destroyers and submarines to reduce any risk. When the troops arrived, they would file into camps waiting for them. Taking a quick break to rest and resupply, they will start to organize. One hundred thousand troops will be put under Nigerian command, with Confederate generals to watch over their men. The others would be directly led once they arrived. The army would bring with them blueprints for advanced naval warfare drones, advanced anti-air systems, and suits of Japanese armor. The CPNA air force dispatched for operations from the carriers will keep the air space safe over Afrikan Commonwealth land, not attacking yet.

     

    The third and fourth wave would come more slowly and better prepared. With them would come Firebrand volunteers outfitted with NCR cybernetics and divisions of veterans in Japanese made armor.Transports led across the seemingly safe for now atlantic by destroyers and submarines. The U.S is asked to enter the war as well, to deploy troops to Nigeria and keep the Atlantic trade safe. Brazil, India, Japan, and the Baltic Sea Confederation are called to honor their alliances with the CSA in some way. The UK is allowed access to the CSA oil trade, with the suggestion of joining the war against the terrorist and Islamic nations that dare deny the King and withhold oil. The Irish are also asked by the CSA government to enter the war, asking if the Irish wanted a second chance to avenge their fallen who were so brutally slaughtered.

    CPNA marines had advanced far into Venezuela, paving the route for the main advance. Troops mustering and supplying on the beach head out, tanks and apcs leading the way on main roads. Panamanian and Costa Rican state militia proficient in the arts of jungle warfare root out Venezuelan's lying low in the jungle. The Venezuelan's were not without teeth, and advanced on advancing CPNA with a slow reaction time. Meeting them head on, the fighting grew unpredictable and deadly. CPNA artillery shelled the advancing columns, destroying the road and halting armored advances. On the other hand CPNA tanks lay low in the rear, offering infantry support. Planed heading from carriers near the beach provide tactical air strike support. Slowly yet surely the Venezuelans were pushed back, and taking losses. CPNA troops also took casualties, particularly ones not ready for jungle fighting. Fighting purposely spills into the border of Columbia, CPNA forces deliberately capturing villages. Naturally the Columbians responded, and quickly defeated the inexperienced troops that were sent to do the job. A deliberate slaughter of their own troops led to a political advantage. Confederate propaganda roared of the Columbian's slaughter of an entire Confederate Company. They claimed the Columbian's attacked first, and it meant war. CSA navy already by Venezuela move in to subdue the coast, as troops long ago mustered in New Mexico and Texas are picked up for the task ahead.

     

    At last the Venezuelan government relented, and surrender. On the terms that they would keep their positions, running the new CSA territory. Brazil is informed help will not be needed, and a defensive alliance and other terms are agreed upon. The national confederate government refused Venezuela's entry as a state, keeping them a territory for now. This would give them more leverage, and strip the rights other states had. Confederate oil companies move into stabilized regions, harvesting the rich supply of natural gas. The rainforest is nationalized and protected from logging companies. They begin to regrow it, offering farmers land elsewhere if they moved. Soldiers would patrol the surrounding location, ordered strictly to keep CSA investments safe. With a surplus of oil streaming in from Venezuela and Texas, exclusive oil deals are offered to Japan, India, the U.S, NCR, and the Baltic Sea Confederation

     

    The land given to the CSA in Mexico from the NCR is quickly filled with troops. The people were defeated, and some welcomed the Confederate's now protecting them from the NCR troops. The land was proclaimed a territory, and the people calmed. Remembering the NCR's other term, CSA politicians tensed. These people were now in theory Confederate citizens, and they did not want to hand half of them off casually. They asked what would become of the citizens, reluctant to see them taken advantage of. The Railgun is planned to be moved to Florida, once the proper defense are made. On a high mountain, a large bunker would be made inside the mountain. With various armored shutters on different heights and positions, tracks ran. Hitched onto a wheel-cart, the railgun could be moved to the different positions and cover the surrounding sea. Solutions to provide energy were argued over, the price would be high and the state of Florida did not want to pay for it.

     

    The war was almost done in Nicaragua, the government having surrendered to the Confederate's. Cartels plagued the areas however, holding the country side. Pulling troops from the Venezuelan offensive as it calmed down, the CSA advances with greater numbers. Pacifying the land, they continue to march north. They were chasing fleeing cartel members into Honduras. But after they eliminated the fleeing enemy, the troops stayed. A blatant threat to the Honduras government, CPNA troops began to build up in the occupied land. The British trade agreement is accepted with reluctance, but the king finds the Firebrands have melted away from their meddling. Nigeria's offer is also met, the CSA offering primarily it's agricultural reserves in return for oil and ore.

    With Brazil backing down, it showed something to the CSA. Not saying what it was, they merely upped their foreign encounters. Brazil would be allowed to peacefully annex, but when it came to invasion, the CSA drew a stern hand. They were the invaders, not a South American nation trying to unify it's fellow brothers. They should try to politically work together, not threaten invasions. Leave that to the likes of Confederates, who were about to show how eager they were to invade...

     

    Venezuela's shipping is seized, CSA ships taking all their trade ships by force. They begin to blockade any incoming trade, and send drones to survey Venezuela land. Troops are sent from every mustering area, Texas, Panama, New Orleans, Puerto Rico, and the Haiti isle. With the navy to protect them, they load up onto transports and set to maritime training. The CSA hard hitting navy itself spearheads ahead of the transport fleet, attempting to draw the Venezuelans out into battle. Naval warfare drones would prey on military vessels with insufficient air defenses, sending hull breaking missiles straight through the middle of their decks.

     

    The Venezuelan navy could not fit the standards needed, and would probably draw away from open battle. This would open up several coast on which to launch an invasion. CSA frigates would shell the jungles just ahead of the beaches, as planes and drones sent from carriers recon exact Venezuelan troop dispositions. CSA marines would be the first to beach, augmented with Panamanian state militia specialized in jungle warfare. They would had into the jungle to fight whatever groups drones tagged, clearing a safe beachhead. Then the regular CPNA and all the supplies needed came with them. Using napalm to clear large swathes of jungle, supply depots and military camps are set up a safe distance from the coast. It would be up to the Venezuelans to allow the advance to continue, or retaliate. It was hoped Brazil's recent threats of dominance would stop them from asking or accepting any kind of help from that sector. As a precautionary measure the navy swings to the east, guarding against Brazilian actions. The Panama Canal tax is raised to help pay for the new war, and a small navy sent to either side to guard it. ((mod plz))

     

    The tension on the Confederate's home front could no longer be ignored. Calling a peace summit at New Orleans for the United States, and New Californian Republic.

     

    Nodding respectfully to the two fellow leaders, Confederate president Elijah Wintersun begins;

     

    "The CSA has tried to ally and benefit both the NCR and U.S. Your two quarreling however has begun to put us between a rock and a hard place. We are ALL Americans, whether we like it or not, and should be more focused on matters abroad. I do not like to have to look over my shoulder to make sure the home front is not threatened by you two damned fools insisting on war. We are all soon to be embroiled with the world, and can't afford to stay with this standoff. So what I propose is the NCR and U.S end aggression, and sign trade and non aggression pacts. I have no need to do it all for you, so set your own terms in this summit. I am here merely to ensure y'all play nice and don't blow up this fine city."

     

    In response to NCR pleas, the CSA ask the U.S to lessen the embargo provided the NCR plays nice. They begin to ship over more of their large food supply, but insist with every delivery the NCR backs down and make friends with the U.S. Making an official declaration, the CSA states neutrality and reluctance to enter the fierce political scene. Things were too tense in the atlantic to care that much. The CSA enters the railgun research, helping pay for it and reduce the time it's taking. 

     

    In Costa Rica, the troops are well rested and resupplied. Following naval bombardments, they begin to advance into the heaviest fighting yet in Nicaragua. The government was actually working with the CSA, but the drug cartels reigned supreme. Having advanced warning from the loss of Panama, and Costa Rica, they built their strength. The CSA still had every advantage besides home territory, and the advance ground on. Haiti and the Dominican Republic are finally calmed enough to free up troops and be admitted into the Confederation as states. The two newest states of Haiti, and Dominica are accepted, and start to form their state militia. Having less say then American states, national government has more influence. Naval ports are to be expanded on, to be able to manufacture war ships. The Indian advanced anti-air guns are placed on new ships rolling out of the factories, and set up in the states of Dominica, Puerto Rico, and Panama to create safe air spaces.

  20. realflag.jpg

    Costa Rica fell to the CSA at midnight, the government toppled. Troops spread throughout the nation, trying to pacify it. Using the local police's knowledge, they begin to hunt down the numerous drug cartels. The advance into further nations is halted, time needed to rest and resupply. Haiti and the Dominican Republic are turned into a territory, whilst Costa Rica is accepted as a state. Troops are heavy in all three lands, trying to peacefully in doctrine them. Cuba was the CSA's staunchest friend, and their ports open to both military and trade. The Cubans are offered blueprints for the newly completed naval warfare drone. The drone was specialized in advanced naval combat an reconnaissance, a ship killer. The eyes and silent weapon of the CSA navy, they would immensely pay off in any naval conflict. Plans of the drone are also given to India -who helped build them- and to the U.S to strengthen relations and their navy.

     

    The defensive alliance to Brazil is terminated in the face of new events. They sought to tear all of south america apart, trying to bully sovereign nations into annexation. Determined to protect their rights -Venezuela especially- the CSA addressed the Brazilian actions.

     

    "We call for you to halt all aggressions against Venezuela, a friend and primary trade source for the Confederate States. If you attack them, it will be considered an attack on us. In fact, to dare presume to imperialize and bully any South American nation, we offer them our protection if they ask for it. We call upon them to draft defensive alliances and trade pacts, to strengthen your position against Brazil. The CSA will not result to open war if not needed, but we will not shirk from our duties. Brazil you have one chance, leave off from expansion, and perhaps become a staunch friend of the CSA."

     

    States are convinced to summon their militia's, who begin to filter to New Orleans, to be transported to Puerto Rico, and Panama. The CSA navy as a whole was focused in this area of the Atlantic, using the naval havens of Cuba, Florida, Puerto Rico, and Panama to stay constantly supplied. Naval drones are sent to keep a close eye on Brazilian naval actions, they would be the first line of defense. Production gears up as war might be inevitable, and the first batch of ships with Japanese aid are finished. Mostly smaller craft with frigates as protection, highly mobile and not so defenseless patrols keep the CSA sphere safe.

     

    With Baltic Confederation support, the CSA starts to go green. Solar roads are planned to be built on interstates, and wind mills where possible. Though Texas and others continued to churn out barrels, the global carbon footprint was meant to be lowered. Careful laws enacted by National Government limit deforestation and water pollution, though it's really up to the states. The CSA was returning to it's roots, becoming an agrarian society. Food was in plenty, and the rest sold off to make a tidy profit. Though highly industrialized, the CSA is an agricultural power.

     

    Brazil told to cease violent actions against Venezuela, Argentina, and Chile, and defensive alliances and trade pacts offered to said threatened countries. Japan offered loans to help rebuild after civil war, and the CSA ask for a spot in the new research into armor.

    The land was stabilized, and the new army trained. Thanks to Japanese aid they were able to make their navy quicker and better. Augmenting the already existing navy the numbers reach a medium sized fleet. Their first order os business was to pick up CPNA forces along the coast. Puerto Rico had been accepted into the Confederacy as a state, and celebration was in the air. There were problems however, the new state loudly complained of Haiti and the Dominican Republic's fighting spilling over to their shores. In an attempt to keep the peace and protect their newest state, the navy and army would move into the quarrelsome island and secure it. No official declaration of war is made, the Confederate's merely stating they were coming to end the feuds once and for all.

     

    They would start with Haiti, and the navy would move in. Sending drones and planes first, they would eliminate and forts guarding landing points all along the west coast. From there smaller ships accompanied by three frigates would move up. Shelling the countryside, they would create a distraction to move in the transports. Confederate marines would land on the beach with minimal resistance, and had air support. Moving in, they begin to capture smaller towns and villages. The main army of 15,000 landed behind them, and begin to spearhead into the island. They would try to encircle the capital and capture it in quick order. Not supposed to be a hard task, 15,000 men was an excess but a show of might. They would hope the Dominican Republic would surrender without a fight after they saw how quick Haiti was dismantled. The Navy stayed resupplied and near the fighting by using it's exclusive rights to Cuban military ports. ((mod needed))

     

    Panama's government was toppled, and the Confederate's puppet faction in power. Their first order of business was to turn the rebel groups who had won into the new government army. Looting armories, and with help from the CSA, they begin to be armed like an actual army. The Panama canal was firmly in their control, and they allowed all nations to use it for a small tax. Their second act was to ask the Confederacy to admit them as a state. Arguing that it was better to be protected from the power in the west then a lone state with a revolutionary populace. The CSA graciously accepted the request, and Panama became their second newest state. They pledged to support military action against Costa Rica. Drug cartels were spilling over, and troubling the newest state. With the Panama State Militia, and 10,000 Confederates on their way from America, they would march north into the jungles. Using artillery and drones to clear the way ahead of them, it is expected that the Costa Ricans would rather surrender then fight. ((mod needed))

     

    The North California Republic was crazy, but the Confederate's had chosen them as an ally and were to stay by it. No wishing to involve themselves into a third fight, they agree with the second option. Happy to have the NCR get rid of 50% of the Mexicans, it would make way for true Confederate's to settle. The support sent is limited to drones, airplanes, and artillery, the CSA not really wanting to involve itself too deeply for now. They send an advisory to their leader, asking for the NCR to stay out of central America. A large army of CPNA and State Militia alike begin to form in New Mexico, and a smaller but more mobile in Texas. It seemed they were gearing up for a full out offensive, they were getting ready to head into Mexico with the NCR.

     

    In America itself the CPNA keeps training their troops not engaged in fighting. They would have to be able to work as a single disciplined group in order to have a chance fighting any big power. They receive an influx of tanks, as more factories are built to produce them. In order to keep morale high and give the large amount of troops possible the opportunity to fight, supply lines were established throughout the atlantic. Troops from America would move in to either Haiti/Dominican or Costa Rica to replace the men fighting there. Giving a large portion the ability to test themselves under fire and become veterans. Thanks to Westpoint acceptance and general good officering, the army was well led. Confederate generals were more then capable, and systematically beat down the smaller forces with a modern and superior army.

     

    Brazil is asked for a defensive alliance and trade pact. Germany, and China are also sent offers of trade.

    Things were running as smoothly as could be anticipated, and the U.S not invading surely helped. As promised, army regiments not wanting to join the south were allowed to head north -provided they surrender their arms-. Political figures and citizens are given the same, though their property would be given to the national confederate government. The property would be given to the soldiers who turned from the Union and lost their property because of it. The delegation from the Californian Republic are graciously accepted into the new capital of New Orleans, Louisiana. They are offered a military alliance, provided Confederate military and trade ships can use their ports. Newly elected president Elijah Wintersun heads to the Yankee summit, and gives his opening speech to the Federalist.

     

    "Me and my party have accomplished our goals, and have led the people of the Confederation through glorious -and thankfully peaceful- revolution. I intend on keeping this revolution peaceful, the United States is still our kin. We have no wish to invade any states that do not justly chose to secede, it is their choice. We have formed a second Confederation, but one that will last. So Mr.Patterson, you are clearly of military rule. Will you squander what you have left against the Confederation, or agree to merely let us be, let us govern our own nation. I will agree to continue on with the U.S dollar currency, and hope open borders and trade can be a possibility. I can assure you the Confederation has what it wants and will not march a single step into any remaining U.S territory. Respect California's sovereignty, ours, and play nice, and we will do the same and call it friendship at that."

     

    With a hopeful end to the revolution, and no civil war, the Confederation began to sort itself out;

     

    Each state would have it's own army composed of State Militia, under their direct control. They can chose to lend their army to the national government but could not be forced to do so. They were allowed to recruit, but not to conscript. The National Confederate Government would run the CPNA (Confederate People's National Army), navy, air force, and was allowed to recruit from every state. Conscription was a possibility, but only if two thirds of the states ratified it and gave the national government the power to do so. Unlike in the past, taxes would be of medium standards to all. Learning from the past low taxes were beneficial, but would kill off their government. So instead taxes would be at a fixed medium level rate, with states having the option only to increase the amount of revenue going to the national government.

     

    Each state governed itself, but still had to answer to their peers and the national government. The national government would have a one term six year president, and a congress comprised of each states elected representatives. Able to control the national army, mail system, infrastructure, some taxes, tariffs, and other necessary issues needing a unified government. States would have limited power through their representatives, in an attempt for the delegates to act for the whole and not just their state. Education, local laws, police, and other local matters were left entirely to the states, National government only able to act if it had backings of a majority of the states. People felt more unified then in the past Confederation, knowing they must stick together united to survive. They still fiercely stayed loyal to their state, but were not slow to help a neighbor.

     

    National Government funds went to the continuance of arming and training their new CPNA forces. Not having to pay for state militia, they could focus and thus make their army more efficient. In ports that had the capability, it was planned to begin making a new navy for the Confederacy. Mainly smaller ships, some hard hitting frigates were planned to be built as well. Local agriculture was supported, trying to improve the output of Confederate food. With most of the fertile agricultural lands firmly in their control, it was not a hard feat. Excess food was planned to be sold off to India, Imperial Japan, and Saudi Arabia. Drones once belonging to the U.S but now in Confederation hands were activated and put into training uses. Funding went to create a more advanced naval assault drone.

     

    Firebrands freed up from the U.S begin to infiltrate islamist terrorist groups in India, both helping and hindering their progress. In Panama they continue the fight against the government with rebel forces. Fighting from the start and well funded, their puppet faction has taken the lead in the various rebel groups fighting together. They are already in the capital in a fierce battle, perhaps a battle for the whole nation. In the UK the war quiets most non radicals. This inflamed the liberals more however, crying that Europe was erupting into war, and the UK should preserve her strength and keep out. Small scale riots broke out in more liberal UK cities. In Russia the Firebrands align themselves with the communist, using some of their advanced weapons to arm them. Giving the mobs organization and leadership, the riots step up a noticeable notch.

     

    The new government calls upon India, China, Imperial Japan, the Baltic Sea Confederation (with the addition of support in building sustainable energy producers), the United States (with the addition of open borders), and Cuba (with the addition of military access to ports, and defensive alliance.) to open trade agreements. ((mod needed for Cuba))
