![]() Soon, secession runs rampant across the country and six factions are vying to control the continental United States. The European Union gets involved as well, sending a “peace-keeping force” into what’s left of D.C., northern Virginia, Maryland, southeastern Pennsylvania, and Delaware, known collectively as Eastern Shenandoah. With the lines drawn, the Republic of Texas begins its (hopefully) mercurial climb to glory and greatness, and gun racks in pickups across the land are loaded and ready for action. I can’t imagine the Lone Star flying over a newly united 48 states, but anything’s possible. The New England Alliance immediately attacks the European Union enclave, making a quick opening bid to occupy the ruins of D.C. They fail, though, and the Europeans remain in place.Īnd the nominal amount of prestige that may bring. Instead of counterattacking the New Englanders, the European Union instead decides to expand its pacifistic role and invade The Confederacy’s Carolinas territory to its south, incorporating it into their protective sphere. I go after the Mississippi Delta States of The Confederacy, immediately to my east, in order to occupy the important Bourbon Street and the tons of beads that go with it (not to mention the uses for the beads, heh-heh). My troops sweep in from the north and quickly capture Baton Rouge, Biloxi, Mobile, and eventually New Orleans (Nawlins). The Confederacy soldiers don’t put up much of a fight, probably the result of getting whacked by the Europeans. Also their redneck machinegun-toting compact cars aren’t much use in the face of Texan Abrams tanks (they shore do blow up real purty, though – yeehaw!). The Mississippi Delta States are incorporated into my Republic. The California Republic tries to take advantage of my attention out east and attacks me in the New Mexico territory. With judicious use of forward defenses, I break their attack and destroy more than half of their invading troops. The most important defensive piece this early in the game are the veritable antiaircraft platforms, such as the Vulcan or Chaparral – keep them out of harm’s way. In this manner I was able to destroy three of the Commonwealth’s Apache units and break their attack for good. The New Mexico Territory stays Texan – for now.
