All right, so... I couldn't resist. This is the official sequel to Forging the Empire Once More. After the game as France became too easy, I decided to switch the country... to the Soviet Union. I suggest you readers to have a look at the prequel to see what the world looks like.

First update later.

Germany would have been harder.

Germany would have been harder.

They are annexed, it's as hard as Spain or Italy.

Good luck, Socialism is in great danger...

I: The Red Monster Eats Finland

France has taken over Europe. The Soviet Union is the only country that can match its size. What were the first reactions of the Soviet Union? To start immediate military action? To propose an alliance? To surrender? NO! The first reaction was:

Oh my god, that's a lot of divisions!

Most of the units are 1936 models, which means that any big operations cannot be held before they are upgraded. The Soviet Union, however, is still at war with the Axis. Or more easily said, Finland. This small little nation survived longer than Germany in the war. But now it's time for them to bow to the east's will.

From every side with unbelievable speed, the Red Army crushed all resistance and penetrated the defensive lines.

But Stalin wanted to honour Finland's bravery. Finland was released as a puppet nation, with a loyal government.

Can the Reds save the rest of the world?

Of course!

Nice work. Now get those factories going and update your spear-chucking infantry to modern weapons.

 

[Enewald]

They can doom the rest, you mean.

Occasionally medium, occasionally hard. AI Aggressiveness was at furious, but it didn't seem to do anything.

that reaction you had there was the same as mine when I tried to invade

II: The First Offensive

After the annexation of Finland, Stalin ordered a brief upgrading phase on our armies. It lasted for months. Starting in late August, it lasted until late November. And still, a big portion of the army is still outdated. Stalin decided not to wait, because Persia had threatened him with their existance.

Armies that would greatly outnumber the Persian ragheads started to attack:

Soon Persia would be taken over, then Afghanistan, Sinkiang, China, Japan... soon all of Asia is under our control.

That's it. A short update, but I'm really busy.

 

[Enewald]

Yay for the world revolution!

Nice move, less Oil for the Frenchies.

Nice move, less Oil for the Frenchies.

That's exactly what I was fearing. Although I don't think they will attack anyone, I wanted to cut them off from the RotW.

A tempting idea indeed... we'll see.
