See above for originating thread. This is an spinoff, as I want to make sure the other stays purely focused on matters with the Pjiadha.

The city was in ruins, devastated by war from within. Riots had decimated much of the downtown area, and the few buildings that were left standing were in utter disrepair. It was a wonder that any leadership existed in this ravaged city at all. Fires still burned in some areas, and crushed metal, along with wind-swept ash, littered the ground. The skies were a bright blue, fitting for a cold day in Chokai. However, storms could be seen in the distance, and the snow would only make the rudimentary living conditions worse.
In the tall Chokai International Tower (glass and steel), a man by the name of Tod Freeman was standing. It was one of the few towers left standing that had running water left in it, as Freeman had ordered his men to make sure the public water system stay working in the downtown island sector.
Tod was a retired general, battle-worn and tough. He was stocky, and had bright gray hair. Though only in his late 40s, he looked much older. General Freeman had assumed control after anarchy had erupted, and air-to-surface missiles from the Pjiadha had destroyed the city. While he hated the Pjiadha, he hated the former ruler, Kei Cho, more. He hated Penguinatan allies, and it was his dream that he would lead the Chokai Militant Party to height.
He had long since ordered the SAM sites based on the Downtown Island active, and was still preparing defenses. He knew that an attack by Nankin on the city inhabited by 30 million would come soon. His 3 million forces were prepared and ready, and he had raided hundreds of former Penguinatan military bases, stolen equipment, and took the liberty to use it.
As he looked out of the smeared window in the wastelands of the city, he could see large crowds of people bartering. Disgusting neanderthals. Can't even uphold dignity. Shameful of my leadership..they deserve death beyond measure.. The general's thoughts were interrupted by an abrupt knock on his door, which he allowed his aide, Janice McFerguson, to come in. She was a short, plumpy woman, in her mid-30s. Her thin brown hair was pulled back in a tight bun, and she looked professional in her blue business suit. "Sir, the intelligence officers wished to inform you that Nankinese forces have launched tomahawk cruise missiles in the direction of Vostirqk. They are suggesting full alert and an immediate lockdown of Chokai to prepare for invasion."
"Yes, Janice. Inform them to launch Code Red. I want everything we've got thrown at those Nankinese bastards. Then after that, inform them that the 2nd and 3rd Mechanized Divisions are to be mobilized, as well as the 1st and 6th Infantry Divisions. I want the 2nd Air Division mobilized also. Activate the mines in the lake surrounding this island, and I want them ready to blow the bridges as soon as I give the commands. We will not lose Chokai. Send my top three up here immediately."

Ten minutes later, Freeman's top three generals had arrived. They devised a plan to surround the outer edge of the lake, and then fill every building left standing with troops. They would have M1A2s lined up in the front, followed by T-95s 200 yards behind, and then a strong line of Paladins and Howitzers. In the middle there would be a thick line of Patriots and SAMs, as well as Apaches and Blackhawks.
On Downtown Island, there would be the last line of defense, with the remaining M1A2s and T-95s standing guard, as well as hundreds of Humvees loaded with explosive devices to act as suicide trucks. There would be troops placed in buildings below the 7th floor on all of them. SAMs and Patriot batteries would occupy every intersection, along with M1A2s and T-95s.
For troops who would not occupy buildings, streets with sewer lines under them had been blown, and concrete platforms had been built to where the troops could peer over the "trench", and they had dug foxholes. Hundreds of howitzers, Paladins, and MRSLs were already in the trenches, and minefields had been stretched for at least 2 miles ahead. Hundreds more were on the shore of the lake, staying out of range of attack. SAM and Patriot missile batteries were lined up everywhere in the huge ring, ensuring that any aircraft that decided to fly nearby would be immediately taken out.
General Freeman was sufficient with the plans, and ordered more mines to be layed. He had been planning on invasion from someone, but he was paranoid. He had taken sharp criticism for practically turning Chokai into a minefield, but many were happy that his paranoia existed. Once he had taken control of Chokai, he wanted to make sure that he would not lose it.

Dark Red (far outside ring)--minefield
Yellow -- 1st line of defense (see in post)
Orange -- 2nd line of defense (see in post)
Gold -- 3rd line of defense (trench system)
Bright Blue -- water minefield
Red Block -- Chokai International Tower
Black -- major entry highways
