The Eagle’s Talons-Crimson with Blood

Hello. This will be a live "timeline" since this is a running game (altho i have written 1st march cos i didnt know actual date, but this is live game). I have written it very storylike, and wont reveal which nation i am till the end. If its too story like and you want a direct answer just ask!! Please like thank you. :)

March 1st 1939- German Empire creates the Axis Confederation, which Japan and Italy quickly join. Meanwhile France, the United Kingdom and Poland form Entente. The USSR remains neutral.

The Wehrmacht launches its invasion of Poland. The country collapsed incredibly fast, the “Sons of Germany” unwilling to let any Polish provinces fall to the Soviet Communists, although the USSR will manage to grab slivers of land. The invasion will see a mere 700 Germans die, but Poland is occupied. Entente remains silent, while Germans are jubilant. The German War Machine begins to grow, the Reich hungrily looking to the East and West.

Meanwhile in East Asia Japan launches a huge invasion of Nationalist China, its Manchurian puppet fighting alongside it. Japanese air forces decimate Chinese divisions, and soon Japan begins an unstoppable advance.

Back in mainland Europe, the German Reich invades and occupied Amsterdam. It will turn into the Reich’s main naval base, with Hamburg temporarily switching to production of the Panzer 35t. The Third Reich begins consolidating its gains, its military increasingly powerful. The Luftwaffe begins patrolling the Siegfried Line whilst the German economic might grows.

March 2nd 1939- Il Duce of Italy, Benito Mussolini, invades Yugoslavia with a large army. Italian divisions cut deep into Slavic territory, while the Reich joins the war, sending two infantry divisions and occupying part of Yugoslavia, and Hungary. The “neutral” USSR conquers the Balts, and warns the Third Reich against invading Romania.

China, Warrior of Japan, Ithaki Timisoara:

He looked around him. Everywhere he saw soldiers of the Empire like him. He swelled with pride as he spotted Chi-Has and “Zeros”. China had been crushed in the latest Japanese offensive, and Ithaki had been there to see it all. The Chinese militia had barely offered resistance. Now his unit was nearing the final Chinese province not yet under the Flag of the Rising Sun, Chengdu.

For weeks Japan had laid siege to the capital. Now was the time to take it. Out of nowhere Ithaki’s unit suddenly came under fire. He ran forward and ducked, shooting at the attackers, his bullets ending the life of two men. After a brief firefight and a direct hit from a Chi-Ha, the 17 Chinese militia lay dead. Ithaki leaned down, and looked at their guns. French. He spat. Of course it was the French. He had heard of the Empire’s growing friendship with the Third Reich, and her growing enmity toward Entente. Soon the sun will set on their Empire and rise on ours, he thought to himself, smirking.

In Asia, the Japanese drive west with enormous speed, conquering Chengdu, the final Chinese province, Mongolia and going toward Tibet and Xingjian. They have properly incorporated “Banzai Charges” into their military doctrine, launching mad, gigantic attacks with no reserves and with a single rush. Against a superior foe, they would stumble, but so far the Empire outguns every enemy it has come up against.

In Germany the war machine intensifies. Poland Blitz veterans remain in the East to monitor Soviet activity, while Konigsberg is transformed into the largest tank manufacturing province of the East. Its Western counter-part, Cologne, turns out Germany’s first Heavy Tank. Spanish forces are discovered in the Maginot Line, and Germany begins to grow worried at the huge number of Entente forces on the French border. Meanwhile the Reich plans the invasion of Belgium. Manpower becomes scarce, every single unit needed and craved. The Reich is stripped of reserves.

March 3rd 1939, A Storm Rages- To the shock and horror of Der Fuhrer of the Third Reich, French troops invade Fascist Italy. Whilst Germany refuses to go to war with France, it is extremely damaging to relations. Peace is maintained, and Germany watches, pained, as Italy is conquered. It somehow finds the units to cover its new Southern flank. Meanwhile a proper invasion of France’s ally, Yugoslavia begins as payback. German fury knows no bounds, and a lone British carrier is sunk by a German submarine. This somehow does not lead to war with Entente, and although official peace with the UK is never declared, the war remains inactive, except for a German naval assault which saw 2 destroyers of the British sunk with no German ships damaged.

March 4th 1939- German forces begin mass penetration of Yugoslavia. France fully occupies Italy much to the Reich’s annoyance. However, Germany will respond by attacking and conquering Belgium. However, the French have fortified their Belgian border well. German and French diplomats clash over peace talks. Germany is worried that so many Spanish and French forces alongside British are pouring into the Maginot Line. Meanwhile Germany creates the Axis Co-Prosperity Sphere, not a coalition, but a group of nations in an alliance. Japan, Germany, South Africa and Peru are the members. German relations with Peru soar, Reichskanzelor Hitler himself declares Peru an Empire (having conquered Bolivia and Ecuador) and creates a new title for its leader, the Iron Emperor.

March 5th 1939- Japan conquers Panama, Tibet and Xingjian and prepares for the assault into India. German intel shows that America has a share map relation with France, a worrying fact. More German paratroopers begin construction, while France begins strengthening its infantry and building Heavy Tanks. South Africa launches an attack on British African colonies, and begins a steady advance. Imperial Japan promises to dispatch 7-8 units to Germany, including cruisers and “Zero” fighters. Germany continues to reinforce the Siegfried Line. Peru and Japan begin supplying Germany’s War Machine. USSR publicly leans toward Axis, but it seems it might be supporting Entente secretly. The Third Reich launches its greatest battleship, Atlantisfrom Amsterdam, and Hamburg switches back to Naval Production.

German High Command begins preparation for the invasion of Denmark, meanwhile new weapons are created and the Reich begins rapidly expanding its military. Yugoslavia begins mass conscription of militia, but the economy is struggling to catch up. France meanwhile remains largely unmodernised, and relies on the sheer numbers of Spanish at the Maginot Line and of course French and British to deter German invasion.

Japan continues its conquest of central America while the USA takes Canada and Mexico. Peru begins rapidly funding the Reich, which has now fully occupied Yugoslavia.

March 6th 1939- The Reich begins open naval warfare against the UK, with Britain leaving Entente coalition. Conquest plans are made for Greece and Bulgaria whilst Slovakia is crushed. To Germany’s delight and despair, the United States attacks Spain. South Africa continues a steady advance into British colonies. Germany begins mass production of Railguns amongst a host of other weapons, the Soviets focus on infantry and France’s war machine grinds to a halt. The war is going well for Axis Powers, but a major confrontation is yet to come.

The flag of Yugoslavia flew behind him. He looked at the scores of men in his view. The remnants of his very own Yugoslavian Partisans. The group had made good progress, recaptured Belgrade, and some southern provinces, but this had backfired. A furious Germany now ordered 3 tank divisions to crush the revolt.

Tito sighed. His movement had failed. Belgrade was their last stronghold, and all of them knew that death was to come soon. If they fought they died, if they surrendered they died.

Tito sighed again. He had seen what war had brought Yugoslavia. He wanted revenge against the Germans. He wanted to bleed them dry in the Battle of Belgrade.

It had been hours since the bloodshed began. German SS troops poured into the city from all directions, slowly loosening the partisan’s grip. Tito could hear the gunfight above him, around him, everywhere. He was in a hastily built bunker, with his closest men and strongest soldiers. Soon he would give them the order to charge at the Germans, their fury and grief a shield against pain, their spirits locked into the charge at their oppressors even in death.

Tito’s Charge and ultimately his partisan movement fails, crushed by elite SS units dispatched to Yugoslavia, soon to be moved to Greece. Yugoslavia will become a scene of terror for weeks.

German Empire loses its first ship, the Battleship Uberlegerto the British Navy. Meanwhile French forces begin amassing…
