Iran/Turkmenistan Border
The ground rumbled along the border as the night wore on. It was the Osten Wehrmacht at it again. They were mobilizing for some other threat, real or otherwise. The products of the war factories, the massive mechanical behemoths rolled forward relentlessly through the desert. The gigantic mobilization was only known in full by members at the top. It consisted of five hundred thousand infantry as the backbone of the attack force, the one which would overrun Turkmenistan once and for all. Army Group Barbarossa, under the command of General Mike Bradley.
The machinery spearheading this force was impressive. The armored fist of the war machine consisted of six thousand of the new Ostkampfwagen VI Trotzig MBTs, backed up by three thousand Furstins, five thousand Ukufas, and nearly 10,000 Schwartes. Knowing the enemy's penchant for air power, twenty entire brigades of Ewigkeit vehicles were brought up for the assault, or nearly six thousand mobile SAM batteries. The Project Moerder platforms were being completed one after another, and five were in the air so far, hanging over major Bumsian cities, protecting against missile and air attack, doubling as a cruise missile launcher.
In reserve, three million men and a massive amount of equipment were being brought up by rail. This was nearly 40,000 tanks of all varieties, and upwards of a quarter million other vehicles, not including logistics. In Afghanistan, an army group of seven hundred thousand was being assembled in the capital city of Kabul, with an armored corps of five thousand Trotzigs, three thousand Festungs, a thousand Mutwatallises, and a roughly equal number of support vehicles. The army based in Kabul was codenamed Army Group Lionheart, under General Garrison's command.
At sea, Task Force Claymore was putting to sea, in secrecy. Not even the public would know until they were meeting victory. This force was consisted of twenty Indestructible-class Aircraft Carriers, twenty Model-class aircraft carriers, one hundred Manstein-class destroyers, one hundred Cartagena-class attack subs, and two hundred Abfuhr-class detroyers. This was supported by hundreds ASW choppers and thousands of carrier planes. This massive force was under the command of Admiral Edward McArthur.
The three-pronged strike, two of which were land-based, while was but a fraction of the nation's potential, presented a formidable force for any nation. The skies would grow dark for Truitt in the Stans, and the rising star of Lame Bums was to come...

[Above: Phase One. Numbers are in thousands. Dotted lines mean bombardment. Arrows mean attacks. The weird boxes are supposed to be Coastal Railguns but my Paint skills are lacking. IC post coming tomorrow.]
