SNESA: From the Ashes

[Jack_www]

The USSR is now resreaching jet fighters using the scientist that defected from Germany during WWII.
This will take 5 years to develope a new jet fighter.

We are also going to upgrade the size of our arny from large to Huge in 5 years time.

General Pancho Villa orders destruction of drug cartels, he does not wish for the Mexican people to be engulfed in such substances. He also orders the imprisonment and punishment by severe lashings to any Mexican caught with an illegal drug substance.

*SECRET*
Instead of destroying the cartels he takes them over and begins covert operations in sending and selling drugs to Americans across the border to earn more money.
*SECRET*

*SECRET*
Meets with Italian Mafia leaders of America to make deals. He grants them secret sanctuary in Mexico in return of large amounts of cash. They also aren't allowed to own any businesses nor create organizations in Mexico, it is only for sanctuary. If they break this treaty Gen. Pancho Villa threatens them war. The deals are made peacefully and Gen. Pancho Villa and the crime family bosses part as friendly partners.

Mexican scientists developing chemical and biological weapons. Most influence on small pox.
They have also started a small project on researching rocketry.

Northern half of Mexico has become more industrialized. Hundred of factories have been built as well as mines and refineries.

TO USSR: The Mexican government asks to buy tanks from you and information on how to build some of your ingenious machines, especially the infamous T-34. We also request on purchasing many planes.

Civil War in Spain Heats up.

Spain split up between the Communist Party, Socialist Party, Democrats, Fascists, and Anarchists.

The Socialist Party unites with the stronger Communist Party agaiinst Fascists and Democratic forces.

The Communist party sets up its 'government' in Valencia.

Communists, with the joint 'covert' aid (military advisors) of Mexico and USSR intelligence agencies, are able to defeat the Fascists at the Battle of Barcelona. Communists forces now occupy Barcelona.

Communists are given a crushing blow when they attempt to take the city of Toledo from the Democrats.

Sporadic fighting taking place throughout the country while each political party tries to gain the upper-hand.

The Democratic Party and the Communist Party are the most powerful and larger of the parties, while the Anarchists are merely ill-equipped peasants and the Fascists a shadow of their former selves.

Which political power will rise in triumph and decide the fate of desolated Spain? Will it be the Democrats with the possible future aid of the UN? Or could it be the Communists with some backing of the USSR and Mexico? Or maybe the Anarchists or Fascists will be able to pull off a miracle and rise to the occasion?

Only time can tell...

(OOC: Civil war is going on in Spain, just thought I'd show some of the action.)

[mmtt]

OOC: T-34 in 1949-50 was no longer a top tank. IS-2 was the most powerful tank (main gun 125 mm and first design of nowadays MBT).

As nobody is actually leading USA, nobody should mess with them right now, IMHO. USA should also react with at least CIA envoys to Cuba. Drugs in Mexico would also be influenced by them.


Fascists shouldn't be allied with Democrats.... Franco was leader of a junta, military guys, not a right wing party.
------------------------------------------------------------------
To USSR (secret): We can't stop Mexico of invading Cuba. Our troops are too far away to reach them to say the truth. They will have to deal with USA.
But right now, we accept this deal. But please, ask Mexico to stop its covert ops in Spain.

To EC: Veto against Spain's intervention has been removed by Russia. Our troops can now move in.

[Easthaven I]

OOC: Ok then, Mexico wants whatever powerful tank Russia has.
And I never said Fascists and Democrats were allied with each other. They fight each other as they fight the communists. You have a point with the US, I just thought that drugs go to Americans from Mexico all the time while the CIA or FBI not effectively stopping it or even wounding the operations. For Cuba, well CIA operatives would be there but direct military intervention I doubted, thats why I didn't invade Panama because I knew that would surely cause US military intervention.

[Easthaven I]

To USSR(SECRET):
Are you sure you wish to lose Spain? The Communist Party there is strong and if we were able to convert Spain to a Communist State it could be a good strategic point and beneficial in the future. If ever you went to war with the Democratic States they would have to fight a two front war against communism.

[Giovanni Wine]

To France, Britain: (secret)
Italian troops are currently landng in southern Spain, near Mercia and in the vicinity of Gibraltar.
We made contact with the Democratic factions there, and we are planning a big strike on Valencia and Barcelona any time soon.

Italians feel very much this civil war and they seem to understand that a Communist Spain would be very bad for us.

We can not lose this time.


To EC:

A common army, a common money and a common parliament could be the next step of this alliance. I'm also for EC institutions. The parliament shall be able to vote war, laws in effect for every member and be elected by whole people. I think this could be done in 10 years.

Good projects, but Italy is not ready yet for such a big step, we need a bit more time.

*SECRET*
General Vega, sent to Spain as military advisor(covertly), orders the offensive against Toledo to be stopped and its forces to retreat to Valencia and prepare defenses, as the result of the Italian D-Day landing of Southern Spain. They comply, but against the advisment of Gen. Vega Communist leaders launch an offensive from Maladeta on the Fascists of the North. They attack Huesca and plan to sweep through Pamplona in an effort to capture the Fascist stronghold in Bilbao. They've had success in taking over 3/5 of the state of Huesca from the eastern side. Gen. Vega is angered by this but has no choice but to watch. He realizes forces were taken from the necessary defenses of Barcelona and the state of Lerida.

Le Monde

French Troops landed near Barcelona! The first army coming from Perpignan and under the protection of Italian navy has totally suprised Communist forces there. The Communists after harsh fighting to take control over Barcelona were restrenghtening.
Heavy fightings ensue in Barcelona streets while Alpine troops came through Pyrenees.

At San Sebastian, paradrops took place and two armoured divisions came from Biarritz and linked with first parachustist elements.

"Our plan for the first day has been accomplished with full success. The enemy has been crushed by airstrikes at dawn just before our troops moved in. I can assure you, we will be in Madrid in a matter of weeks." said General Massu, commanding French expeditionnary forces in Spain.
-------------------------------------
Communist deputees(sp?) have left the National Assembly in sign of protestation against government actions in Spain. They have called for a massive strike in whole France to condemn murdering of pacific workers.
Police forces have been reinforced to keep order.

President De Gaulle speech last night explained that an intervention in Spain was needed to restablish a peaceful and democratic state, insisting that the intervention had only this goal.


---------------------
To EC:
Situation is getting very difficult in France. We need to finish this war in Spain fast. France may be paralysed by possible strikes through all the country. I suggest a massive attack on Madrid and Valencia.
British troops would disembark at San Sebastian , Bilbao and Leon. French and Italian troops would attack Valencia from north and south. Finally, last offensive would have goal to reach Madrid.

France also needs to rebuild his navy. We would like to build a common super carrier and we program the building of 2 battleships and 3 battlecruisers. As Britain are navy experts could they help us in this goal.



To USSR:
We are in now. Please stop helping your Communist friends and ask Mexico to do the same or EC will react to any Mexico reoccupation of Cuba.
-------------------------------------
King of Spain has declared that every factions should stop fightings. They should form a new government composing of every party. He also insisted on his full support to EC peacekeeping forces.
He finished his speech by asking Spanish to help as much as they could peacekeeping forces.

To Mexico(secret):
The deal we have made with the EC requires that you stop supporting the communist rebels in Spain, that way you can have Cuba. We are doing this and suggest you do the same. We would also like to have a joint resreach project between all comunist countries to devolope a better tank then the one we have now.

[Easthaven I]

Gen. Pancho Villa recalls all covert operatives in Spain to return to Mexico.

Operation Cubano is launched!

After numerous bombing campaigns and barrages from the Santa Anna, the Aztecas are able to establish beachheads along the shores near the city of Pilar del Rio without any serious opposition.

2 Airborne Divisions are dropped on the small Cuban island of I. de la Juventud.

The Aztecas sweep through the country side making a beeline for Havanna. Within a day they attack the capital city. General Fino comments, " because of the civil war occuring here we are defeating the enemy with more ease than expected, the Battle for Havanna shall take a few days before we can sweep it clean of enemy forces, including Castros."

A portion of the Aztecas circle around the city of Havanna and captures the city of Matanzas within a day of fighting. 10,000 men surrender and 1,000 of Castro's men were captured.

A 2nd transport arrives (filled with army engineers) on the Mexican controlled portion of the island and they begin constructing a makeshift airport near the city of Pinar del Rio, so that supplies can begin coming in.

The Airborne Division on I. de la Juventud have taken over the ports and destroyed the cuban military presence on the small island. They've captured 4,000 cubano militants. They've also began constructing a makeshift runway for the arrival of supplies.

The campaign in Cuba has been going as planned. The Mexican people are impressed with their military's capabilities.

To USSR(SECRET):
We wish to partake in this joint research project.

[Giovanni Wine]

To France:
Italian troops are ready to strike in Valencia, we will take the city from the communist very soon.

The "Arditi", "Cavour", "Savoy" and "Fiume" marines regiment are going to attack the shores of Valencia, while the Italian troops that already landed in Mercia are going to strike from the South.

Also some Bersaglieri troops together with an armored division is cleaning the way in order to reach Madrid.

Our Air Superiority granted our troops some easy victories over the communist.
(OOC: Where is Space05us?? )

To EC:
Our economy is improving every year, and the wealth of our population is raising considerably.
The ghost of War World 2 is defeated, and Italy is raising strong, especially thanks for the help you provided us.
We have managed to put more cash in the rebuilding, and our ports in Genoa, Ancona and Naples will be fully operative in 2 years

As USSR pulled out of Spain, French communist party stopped their movements and strikes weren't so important than expected.

------------------------
Le Monde:
The 2nd armoured division is attacking Valencia with the support of Italian Navy and French airforce. Casualties seem to be very high in Communist ranks. Their last stronghold will soon fall.

Anarchists dropped weapon and wants to be included in the new government. Their leader Del Juano de Siguiera (ooc just a name) has surrendered to French forces in Valladolid.

Fascist forces are regrouping in Madrid with a large part of the former Spanish army. General Massu issued them an ultimatum requesting their capitulation to European Forces.

More and more troops are coming from San Sebastian rushing toward Vallodolid to encounter British forces (I suppose you follow the plan?).

A big part of France economy has been rebuilt. It is now equal to French economy before the war with a superior general growth (5% of GNP)

(OOC: Hmm, been a while since I was in an NES. Last one I left when millions of Aztech clones and nukes were everywhere, don't think that'll happen this time thugh, heh. Since noone seems to have taken it i'll start as America, though i'd rather play some a bit less powerful. This first post is gonna be pretty big, gotta catch up on everything. Also, I was thinking, since we have so many "secret" projects could we designate which ones have the chance of being found out by spys? Like an OTS(Open to Spying) flag? Since we're just trying to do a story and not actually win it'd help things, open up espianoge without ruining realism.)

ANNOUNCEMENTS

-----------------------ABC News break-----------------------

With the war in Spain and invasion of Cuba 'red fever' has overtaken America. Many fearing that communist or even facists would invade them next the public demanded firm action. The result of this being seen in the elections. Former US Army General Jacob Smith elected President in a landslide victory. Running off taking a firm stance against communism and facism his victory was almost assured from the start.

As a Republican from Virginia Smith served as a liuetenant in WW1 winning many medals, and then as a General in WW2. With the House and Senate also falling under his partys control the first bill of the new Presidency has been passed. The bill called the Right to Freedom Act allows the President to use force when determined neccesary to restore or establish Democratic goverments in states in turmoil. The exact definition of a state in turmoil is left open to interpretation, but current cases such as Spain and Cuba seem to fit.

Another bill passed was one offering incentives to US companys to invest in European buisness ventures. The object of the bill hoping to spur US economic group and help restore the devastated European economy. The initial reaction to the bill seems to be good, though some companys are still wary of investments with places like Spain still in war.

DIPLOMACY

-------
To Britain: Greetings to our Allies. Though times lately difficult and America has seemed to be returning to it sleep, that is no longer the case. We will not allow Communsim or Facism to spread, and assume we have your support on this. We support your actions taking in turning Hong Kong into an international city, this will do much to help peace. However Singapore is still a problem. For the sake of diplomacy and because neither you nor Australia really have a claim to it, I propose you grant Singapore independence. I'm sure with a little persuasian the new goverment would support your bases, and Australia would also lose its claim. If it seems like it would not support it, removing all British trade from it would be a sufficent threat to persuade them i'm sure, since they rely on your nation far more then Australia. Also, would you be interested in a joint research project developing a new type of Jet Fighters? The estimates of our scientists that with your help we'd be able to finish in 4 or 5 years. We look forward to your reply.

-President Smith
-------


-------
To Japan: We have noticed recently Japans buildup of its military and increasingly hostile stance to other nations. Though you may have wormed your way out of some restrictions, a military buildup is not one of them. By the terms of the treatys signed you must CEASE all military buildup. You are allowed only enough to defend Japan. Any forces seen as purely for offensive purposes will be considered an act of war by Japan against America. Furthermore any act of aggression by Japan against any country will be seen as an act of war against America. The rise of any non-democratic regime will also be seen as act of war. Also, you have no claim to Hong Kong and should not be supporting any nation militarily in a claim for something. For the sake of your people the US hopes you can meet with the terms provided, the US is not afraid to go to war to prevent what happened last time.

-President Smith
-------


-------
To Australia: Fighting Imperialism is all well and good when its your own people, but wanting to replace another country to control them yourselves is just as bad as Imperialism. The people of Singapore should be granted independence, not controlled by two nations that don't have the right. We have requested Brtain grant them independence and propose you do the same. If the new democratic goverment seeks to ally itself with either you or Britain we will support it fully. However, any military action taken by Australia against a US ally will be met with full retaliation. We hope for the people of Singapore and for peace that you can agree to these terms.

-President Smith
-------


-------
To the EC: The US applauds the firm action in the Spanish war. It is good to see other nations seeking to prevent communism and facism in whatever forms. The US is sending a force to assist in bringing the country under control and to oversee the establishment of a Democratic goverment. We also want to ensure no facists or communists are allowed positions of power as this will be seen as an attempt to destroy the goverment from within again. We look forward to dealing with the EC again and are open to any ideas that would further spur US-European trade.

-President Smith
-------


-------
To Mexico and all nations: Though we are glad to see your goverment is stable, we can not agree with your form of goverment. Communism a blight apon the world, preaching to the common man while barely giving him enough to live so you can increase your army to conquer other nations is no way to rule. We urge the Mexican to seek democracy. We will not directly intervene in your goverment unless clear examples of the goverment harming the people is found. However we condemn all actions taken by Mexican troops in Cuba. Further more we demand all Mexican troops be withdrawn. In month we will launch operation blue sea. It is aimed at disarming the communists and facists, then at establishing a strong democratic any attempt by Mexico at putting up a communist goverment will be seen as an act of agression against the US. Any troops left after that month will be seen as supporting the communists/facists, not as Mexican troops and will be treated accordingly.

Furthermore, we implore the democratic nations of the world to support us in our cause. Nations that preach equality while building armys should not be. All people should be allowed freedom, and that is all we are seeking for them. In this day and age weapons exist to destroy a city in a flash. With these weapons in the hands of good democratic nations, there is no problem. However if nations noticibly lacking in morals were to aquire large stockpiles of these, the results could be disastorous. We ask of all peoples to cease further development, defense of your nation is one thing, destruction of another is something else. We ourselves will begin stopping our development, it is for the good of the world.
