Through E-Gruppe's Capital City, Marched the greatest Army ever publisized by the Sovereignty..... Millions of men and Thousands upon thousands of Armored Vehicles made their way through a single street, the widest of them all. Occupants stood by, wondering whether they should be greeting this horde with applauds? or running away screaming in terror? Either way, with the leaders permission, this force was brought in through both Massive Beach-Heads, and an entire Sovereignty Air Armada, one of two fielded by the SAF. Which over a period of 8 hours, grudged its way over the large body of water seperating the Silberunion from Berserkia.

The Street was not ment for such wide formations, and time was not abundent. Splinter groups of Infantry and Tanks branched off from the main stream of units and began using other side-streets to make their way through the city. From an unknown, unrevealed source off the coast, Guardian class Transports began making dangerously low passes over open fields and valleys, rear doors parting and from each of the Transports (although many across the country all together) began dumping a tank, and 80 men after the tank onto the ground, before pulling up and heading home.

Military Facilities belonging to Silberunion E-Gruppe were met with Volunteers of the Vulture Corps, The best of the Sovereignty's Airborne. With very specific, clear orders they were to cease any current hostile-actions against incoming Sovereignty Forces, while being temporarily put under command of Grand-Marshall Yeiverk.. One of Three Grand-Marshalls in the Sovereignty's Military

500,000 Men, who had stayed behind from the main force passing through E-Gruppe's Capital had taken up stiff formation infront of the Capital Building. While an entire Armored Corps manuevered into position around pre-selected Street-Corners covering five streets which were in close vacinity of the Capital Building. Of those 500,000 present in the city, 100,000 were dispatched to outer parts of the city to set up Check-Point Zones.

With almost constant Air-Cover passing over the city, the thundering roar of the engines would begin to spread out across the lands. Vulture Company's had already begun comondeering Air Ports and Military Air Bases to allow their own craft to land and refuel. Port cities were now cleared of civillian craft, and were sights of Non-stop Submarine sightings... Four entire Deep-Water Submersible Fleets were diverted from the Sovereignty's main Water-bound forces to bring in supplies and additional troops to secure supply import areas which were being loaded and shipped from Mountain-housed Naval Bases. Over 60% of the supplies being sent from the Kolsk Naval Base.

Only five surface transports were present in the entire naval show seen, and had already deployed the two Tank Brigades they housed, which were soon beached, and already moving to link up with a Vulture Battalion a few miles north in a small rural town.

The Sleek sculpture of 'Sea-Hindz', which were simply Army-Grade Hind-45's reoutfitted for Naval use, and given a lighter chassi to allow for higher speeds and more on-the-dime controls, could be seen making single and double patrols over areas not covered by Airborne and water-bourne troops..

The SS Leibstandarte Kaiser Martens (SSLS Kaiser Martens) Entered the region as well, Berserkia, after Martens ordered to attack, because of many incidents with the leading nation of the region, Legionaire.

Using naval and aerial carriers of different kind they entered the area occupied by E-gruppe without resistance and so they began to march forth, joining the Red Parade.

The SSLS carried the newest technology in the whole Reich and this was demonstrated by the large amount of Walkyria type double cannoned tanks, several Maus III Superheavy tanks, Waffen SS medium and heavy, specialized infantry, Panther III tanks, SiG05b Self Proppeled artillery, all marching in such a perfect order that people would wonder if they were not machines rather than people.

(Mh, feeling lazy.....)

The loom of war seemed to come over the capital city of E-Gruppe. Ferrum, the leader of this proud nation was inside the barber of his sprawling villa. He had sat in his chair, getting his face shaved by one of his many assistants. Once he was clean shaven he had stood up and he had placed on an urban hooded camoflague jacket. With its black, gray and white blotches it made him look like a common soldier. The only thing that was different was the beret that went on the top of his head.

On the top of his well groomed hair, the black beret was set; a coin set in the flap that was above his right eye. The coin was decorated in a dark red, black, and white. He had walked over to his record player and he had put on light classical music. He had obviously enjoyed the finer things of life, not by his weight but by the way everything was decorated inside of his lavish villa.

His combat boots cut across the ground as he made his way down a long corridor, flanked by two Lieutenant Colonels that were set by teh Arcognan Destruttivo. It was obvious who his alliance was to in this battle and he had looked outside of one of the many windows of his quarters. Out upon what seemed to be his front doorstep were two armies. The problem was that these two armies were frightening his citizens, but he would have his propaganda to level off that fear. His soldiers on the other hand paid no mind to them; they were well disciplined and were set on defending the city.

The defense of the city was actually quite simple as there was a large ditch dug around the whole of the city with many bridges that were set to be destroyed if enemies planned on crossing it. There were enough bridges for the friendly forces to get out of the city fast enough for a retreat or even an offensive. Around the city, placed in various concealed locations were Surface to Air defensive missiles that were prepared to take down enemy air craft. The city had not even mobilized its armored vehicles yet because of the Engineers who were digging the ditch around the city, and when that was complete...finally their most important economic advancement would commence.

Since E-Gruppe's main economic export is vehicles, many different armored and unarmored cars took care of the citizens in the city. Large searchlights from various vehicles were flown throughout the air. In the streets were mostly heavy tanks, their M1 Abrams moved to the side to allow room for their comrade's to be squeezed in.

Now that the people were in their homes and soldiers were deployed to all major points in the city for protection, there was time for them to wait...wait for the other's to attack or for their own armies to attack...what a day for Ferrum.

Word was recieved....The Fools had brought Nuclear Weapons into the catfight back in the Silberunion. Sovereignty Nuclear Redemption Doctrine and Policy called for immediate retaliation. The Soviet Sovereignty and its Council Communist Government were waiting for such an event, and while the majority of the Soviet went into nuclear shelters which no one outside the top of the military new about, a few selected members met in the Soviet Council Building, where many were gathered around...A finely dressed man walked up to the podium, clearing his throat as he looked out into the many, many faces gathered before him..

"Friends..Komrades in arms...Brothers....It is with great dismail, that I bring sad news to our prosperous nation..It seems that in the midst of our regional War Games, an Unkain nation from thousands of miles away has unleashed Nuclear Weapons on our neighbors men...Standard National Policy calls for, immediate retaliation should such an catastrophic event take place behind the borders of our nation, or any of our neighbors nations..."

National Television taping the scene now cut away from the speech to reveal dozens upon dozens of short clips of Nuclear Silos which littered the country, parting their behemoth cieling doors, pumes of compressed air being released. Underground Vehicle Armories across the entire nation divided their cold tritanium doors as Wheeled Missile Deployment Systems(including the Sovereignty's entire Old-Era WMDS') departed in finely made lines for undisclosed locations nearby...

With nearly Half of the Sovereignty's Nuclear Arsenal on a 'Worse Case Scenario' Alert, The first command keys were handed out, recognition codes read aloud.....And after only five minutes into the speech, The Nuclear silo located in the Sovereignty's Capital City(underneath a park, ironicly) erupted to life, belching out fire as the Nuclear Missile, aimed for 'Legionaires' Capital City was released...

Nearly as soon as the first was launched, soon was another, and another, and another..Until citizens in nearly every rural town and city began reporting the sightings, but were reassured it was nothing of importance..

Oh...But Legionaire was not the only target...CEI Opperatives opperating out of E-Gruppe had connected Legionaire with the other regions nations, them being identified as Puppet-Nation Regimes under control by Legionaire from one vantage point or another...So their capitals were targeted as well, and every nation(besides E-Gruppe) and their three largest cities not counting the capitals were targets as well.. Each City targeted would be fired at multiple times, regardless of which missile would strike first... Until one vision would be common all throught the region of Berserkia..

In the same moment that fire engulfed all the important cities of the nations in Berserkia, all the SSLS Kaiser Martens army advanced, taking Geiger Counters and Gas Masks with them so they would avoid the Radioactive areas, and would fence them out. They wouldn't drink water unless it was tested, that's what they had their supply lines for. So, three huge masses of army advanced towards Legionaire first to wipe out any resistance that may be left. They were organized in the following manner:
s s
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
oooiiiiiaaaiiiiiaaaiiiiiaaaiiiii ooo
s oooAáAiiiiiAáAiiiiiAáAiiiiiAooo s
oOoMMrIIIISSSSIIIIrMM oOo
oooiiiiimmMO@@OMmmiiiiiooo
oooOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOooo
s s

Each letter represents a large group of the following types of units.

O= heavy(almost medium) Leopard III tanks.
o= Panther IIC Medium Tanks
i= Infantry
a= artillery
A= AA defenses, Flak, Rapier
á= heavy artillery
M= Maus Tanks
r= Rocket Artillery
I= Elite Infantry
S= Self proppeled Armored arty
m= Misc non combatants
@= Elite small group of Valkyrie E tanks, along with the Commanders and such.
s= scout vehicles to detect radioactivity and enemy from afar, in fight they retreat to the back quickly.

Those three formations progressed carefully but steadily, staying close to each other to destroy anything that dared oppose them, quickly but cautiously.

The dark truth set upon Ferrum as he realized what had happened. Deep within the halls of his villa he was safe, but his people...his people...he had noted to his right hand man to inform the news of E-Gruppe of what had happened. Ferrum had walked down a narrow corridor to head downstairs but he had stopped when a Destruttivo came up behind him, a deep voice emitting from the visored face.

"General, you stay down here while we protect your villa..."

He had heard the words but shook his head, walking down the stairs quite quickly, sometimes skipping a stair or two. "I refuse!" he had shouted over his shoulder, moving to a nearby table to grasp ahold of a gas mask...he had put it over his head, removing the beret and slamming it down on the table. He had then begun to head up the stairs, the Destruttivo turning around as to not obscure the passageway.

Ferrum had gotten up the flight of stairs and began to walk down another corridor, flanked by two Destruttivo as he walked out the front doors, bursting to look at the red skies...it had begun, twenty one suns had been launched and for what? To stop an invasion? The fools...why launch such weapons? Ferrum had almost felt like crying from the rage he felt as he nodded his head back to the Destruttivo.

"I want you both to find radio operators and spread the word around the city to our soldiers to start handing out gasmasks and make sure to be close to biological warfare specialists. I want all of our chemical engineers to be reading the city for radioactive activity. About those gasmasks, make sure the citizens get them as well...I don't care how you give it to them, have our soldiers go door to door with any gasmask that they can spare and give it to them...unfortunately we are going to be moving our city once again...this land will soon be useless..."

Ferrum had nodded his head with the instructions he had given and he had walked down the front steps of his Villa to head out to the streets...he had wanted to be there first hand. He had been all by himself and he had run into a nearby infantry patrol that had literally picked him up off of teh streets. He had been in one of the Stryker battalions now and he had been given a rifle by one of the soldiers, he was ready to defend his city if the need came...

His eyes caught something in the sky though, a bright...beautiful object...what could it have been? It did not take him long to figure out what it was...he had frowned and he had looked to a nearby soldier, the letters AB taped to the soldier's helmet...he had noted that it was probably his blood type, and he had figured how real everything was just about then... "God...whoever...help us..."

---

Soon the entire nation of E-Gruppe was mobilized. Every man, woman, and child who were able to carry a weapon were sent to aid their brothers-in-arms. Unfortunately Ferrum had hated what it had come to and he had stood up on one of the Strykers as it stopped, vehicles rushing by in a large skirmish line. He had held his hand up and then shifted it forward and soon they were lining up on both sides of Kaiser's army. This was done so that his flanks would be protected, at the expense of their own army.

Ferrum hated to put his soldiers in such danger as he knew that the flanks were the first thing armies went to attack. He had crouched down on the Stryker as it began to move again and it had drove through the ranks to find Von Manteufel. As soon as his vehicle was on par with the other general's, he had nodded his head as he prepared, his army as stated on the flanks of Von Manteufel's.
