Fighting nears Bombay in India
Nearly 312,000 Army Infantry have neared 10-20 miles north of Bombay. Where heavy fighting is occuring. Casualities are amounting but the Indian Army will either surrender or collapse in a while. But the Indian Army is offering heavy resistence. Many of the major Indian Military bases have moved further south. So we have made some more advance in India.

Here are the casualities:

Republic Troops:
Killed - 19,150
Injured - 6,110

Indian Troops:
Killed - 56,100
Injured - 71,200
Captured and Demilitarized - 121,250

IC:
Great Principality scientist Vitruvian Bob, in trying to create what he calls a “Microfusion
Engine,” has built an intermediary prototype he calls a “Minifusion Engine.” He hopes to
make further advances in the filed of fusion miniturization.

To Britain, Scandinavia, and North Asia:
Our nations have created the Alliance of the 3 Sabres Worldwide Entente. I hope that we
can all help each other’s nations in times of need. My nation, the GP, has sent North Asia
15 Tungsten-Armoured Hovertanks to help with the war effort in India. I thank Scandinavia
for the N1000 it has sent to my nation. I am currently sending scientist Vitruvian Bob’s files
for making Minifusion Engines to all three of you. Hopefully he will soon discover the
secret of microfusion. Long live the 3SWE Alliance!

OOC: Good job Dan. Keep up the stories like so but don't discover techs too fast. Break it up a little. It sounds too repetitive.

IC:
UAN proposes an joining of the 3SWE alliance. Let us live long and prosper. Do you accept?

Meanwhile, Chairman WarVoid stands looking over the vast Siberian tungsa to the north of his domain. Today we start moving our military into the area to begin a complete conquest of Siberia. The 200,000 surviving infantry from the Slav Wars have been moved to protect the northern borders from any counteroffensives the Siberians might take. Only three plasma armor survived the war and are in Aryas undrgoing repairs. Samara, Astrakhan and Rostov have begun construction on new armors to be shipped to the north. This should take at least three months.

[Giancarlo]

We glady accept the offer. Our Military can offer you 15,000 Pulsar Plasma Rifles, if you need any. These are top of the line.

[Geography Dan]

To accept a new member into the 3SWE, 3 of the 4 original members must agree. I too, would welcome the UAN into our alliance. Now we need either Britain or Scandinavia to also agree, and your in.

English News Update

The entire british military is on red alert! Conscription efforts are underway to put another 500,000 men under arms. Troops are moving to the ports and the Royal Navy is now putting to sea for war!

Imperial Update:

Population: 96,750,000
Capital City: London
Territories: England, Ireland, Scotland, Southern Norway

Royal Army
1,000,000 Infantry
5,000 Hovertanks
5,000 Plasma Cannons(Artillery)

Royal Air Force
1000 Bombers
2400 Attack Fighters
2400 Interceptors

Royal Navy

4 Battleships
12 Air Defense Frigates
12 Missile Cruisers
12 Escort Carriers
16 AEGIS Destroyers
16 Submarines

Commonwealth Naval Bill
King Arthur has ordered the construction of:
3 Fleet Carriers
24 Air Defense Frigates
24 Missile Cruisers
36 Aegis Destroyers
36 Destroyers
48 Submarines
12 Landing Ships

Due to the massive cost of the program, a 5% special tax is now being levied on clothing, food and the tax is increased on luxuries by 1% to 6%(which is PA standard!!). Also the program is being staggered with half in 1.5 years, the second half in 3 years. (I hope this makes it more realistic or atleast believable!! I am trying to be militant!)

Research is also beginning on Microfusion in cooperation with the other 3 schimtars members!

The Mauritania Campaign is now completed with the last of the Federal forces being driven into neighboring nations or surrendering to our troops. Mauritania is now an official colony of the British Empire and settlers and engineering battalions are already moving in to develop this new land once again, after centuries of despotic rule.

Tax protestors are being arrested and shown videos obtained from the Slavic Wars showing German atricities on the steppes and their fearsome naval vessels wreaking havoc on Slavic Shipping. This is in an effort to show them why we are building such a massive navy and secretly conscripting troops, and to convince them and their compatriots to cease protesting.

To World: We have recently obtained video from partisans and British operatives of German atrocities on the Slavic front. Segments of the video, shot from a distance, apparently show German troops executing families of military troops and officers after brutally raping and torturing both women and children. Other segments show a new holocaust underway with the apparent execution of minorities and ethnically impure people! We must put a stop to this at once!

To 3 Sabres: We must put a stop to the German brutality in the steppes. we should consider a blockade or even military intervention to save the people from the long thwarted German Lebensraum! My forces are on full alert and are ready to go and my fleet is putting to sea as we speak!

To Royal States of America: We are in contct with underground Canadian Resistance groups waiting for a vulnerability until they strike! Please relinquish control of Canada or else we may find ourselves aiding and abetting rebels in your canadian states!

[Geography Dan]

To Britain:
If you will agree to allow the UAN into the 3SWE, thus making them official members, then I will aid in a war against Germany and will urge the other 3SWE members to do so as well.

[gscott23x3]

Oh shoot i completely forgot!!

IC: King Arthur completely agrees to the proposal to have the UAN join the 3 sabres!

[Geography Dan]

To all 3SWE members:
Please help our fellow member Britain in its upcoming war with Germany.

To Britain:
Currently en route to the North Sea, from the GP military bases, are:

1 Tungten-Armoured Elite Dreadnought, the GPS Freedom

1 Carrier, the GPS Hamilcar, carrying 5 Air-Carriers, and numerous fighters and bombers

2 Battleships, GPS Mandela and GPS Archimedes

Several transport ships carrying 150,000 troops, half of the GP’s Grand Army, led by the
renowned GP general Donner Khan, and 200 Tungsten-Armoured Hovertanks


King Arthur, will you temporarily allow the GP use of one base on the coast of England to
base our operations from?

Additionally, I (Prince Hamilcar Dan) must note that any territory we conquer during the
course of this war will become GP territory.

Long live the 3SWE!


GP News:
GP authorities have ordered the conscription of 200,000 more troops and the production of
300 Tungsten-Armoured Hovertanks. These processes should take a few months to
complete.
GP shipyards have begun production of 1 Tungsten Armoured Elite Dreadnought, 2
carriers, and 4 battleships. Construction of these should take about 8 months.
Additionally, fighter and bomber production rates have been increased, and several more
Air Carriers are in the works.

A poll taken by the Independent African News Service reports that 84% of all GP citizens
support furthered involvement in the 3SWE.


OOC: what is the time scale in this story thread? how many months does 1 day equal?

[gscott23x3]

OOC: Dont worry Dan it isnt a bother at all!
I dont know, i think it is 1 day is 1 month though!

Your requests are granted! You may utilize the entire resources of the city of Portsmouth as a base of operations!

Prince Hamilcar Dan sends his sincere thanks to King Arthur. Long live the 3SWE! We will conquer the immoral, genocidal Germans!

Let us hope that the Week of Darkness passes quickly.

[Giancarlo]

We the Republic of North Asia was the first to find out about the atrocities committed by the Germans, but that was unoffical so we couldn't do anything about it. So if the UAN lets us deploy troops to go through their nation and attack Germany, we will be abled to help, but at this time there is a war going on in India, where most of troops are centered. We could send up to 350,000 Men in the Army with 1,000 Plasma Tanks.

We also agree to let the UAN to be in the 3SWE Alliance. Let the Alliance live long!

[WarVoid]

OOC:
Yes, 1 day = 1 month. Roughly speaking

IC:
We agree on the proposal set by the R.N.A. to send it's troops across out territory. Our trops are being moved from the Siberian front to the western front to help. We have not yet offically declared war on Germany so we are not attacking. Another 100,000 infantry were moved from the central and eastern borders to support the west and north frontlines today. 3 plasma armor have been completed in Aryas making our total army of 25 armor. Small but efficent. Ion cannons besieged the northern Siberian city of Tyumen today. Our forces are slowly moving foward.
We also wish to thank all nations for supporting our membership into the alliance.

Two agents arrive in the Rep. of North Asia via Siberia. No one knows why they're there...
