In the late summer of 1980 the world is at the height of tensions in East Germany food riots have broken out as citizens protest at the soaring prices of food.This is due to several failed crops in the east the Soviet Goverment are at a loss to explain the lack of food and healthy crops but are unaminously agreed that the food riots in East Germany need to be put down.The Soviet Premier orders the mobilisation of 124,000 troops to cross into east germany via poland and set up a temporary government in East Germany which along with 'selected members' of the East german government will restore order.
on the 16th of august Soviet troops cross the polish border and begin on the road to berlin supported by light airpower in the form of several squadrons of migs. On the 22nd they reach East berlin and quickly encircle the east german parliment building riots over the next few months are severe with the Russian army opening fire on crowds and killing hundreds and stamping a iron boot down on the population.
