"Good evening"

"Over the last few months progress continued on the new Infrantry Fighting Vehicles that were planned as our next generation equipment for our new army, and once completed the equipment was formed into units and put into service"

"While these new equipment orders were being filled B-52Hs and DDX-21s continued to destroy German,French,Baltic and Russian units that could be in a position to resist the planned infrantry landings or their advance"

"The heavy bombers also continued to destroy any air facilites that would allow enemy aircraft in the regions to reach our operating area, and to slow down the Russian forces by destroying Russian Military Bases within reach"

"The new units of LAV-5As were loaded in Sacramento Supply vessels and shipped to the landing area in Germany.There were roughly 54 units of these new Infrantry fighting vehicles shipped.In addition roughly 14 units of national guard went along with them in the 4 Sacramento naval units"
"The mockup below shows the landing"




"Once the units were organized and in place,they pushed across Germany and into poland.The LAV-5As lead the way on the ground with National gaurd units taking up blocking positions to gaurd tha rear of the advance"

"The heavy bombers helped the land units advance by destroying the bridges linking the north part of germany in which we were advancing, to the southern part of the rivers Elbe and Wesser.In addition the three main cities on the river Elbe and Wesser were also reduced to choked rubble,denying the German forces and crossings they contained.Dresdon,Bremen and Madgeburg were the cities"
"The advance can be seen in the below mockup"



"Once units had crossed into Poland they moved to the frontline, carved out a large chunk of land to put under U.S. occupation, and started the construction of 3 medium military bases from which the Lend Lease Program will operate"
"Seven units of engineers positioned themselves to help with the construction"

"The advance of the U.S. ground force also gave Polish units the break they needed and allowed them to rally and push the russians back for the first time in quite awhile.The polish capital is no longer in direct line of fire"


"Its estimated that this operation has cost roughly 220 American lives,with no units lost"

"Germany lost another circa 210 units and roughly 80,000 men"

"In addition The Baltic Union was heavily hit by U.S. bombers and missiles losing roughly 70 units and an untold amount of men"

"Russian losses are not known, but expected to have been light to medium"

"Good night, and rest well"

The year is 2021, the day Oct 14

"Good evening"

"Tonight we'd like to take some time and inform you of progress made in our Wars"
"Over the last months our Lend Lease bases in occupied Russia have gone live.They have turned out a steady flow of equipment that has been sold or transferred to Polish control"

"Poland has used this equipment to form new light infrantry unts with which they have for the first time in their war, pushed into Russian territory"

"As the following mockups show,the fighting and losses for both Poland and Russia have been heavy"



"With poland succesfully pushing on the northern front, U.S. troops have pushed hard on the southern front.We have not only taken a large chunk of Russian territory ,but also of Ukrainian.

"As the below mockup shows"




"In addition our tech has continued to advance with us reaching a tech level estimated on the "Goat Scale" of 118"

"Along with this tech advance we have continued to field cutting edge units.Twenty one f-22Ds are now operational and in combat and a new highly advanced tank is about to enter production"

"In addition a new secret high altitude fighter has entered production and should be available in about 1 year"

"Losses for the U.S. over this time period have been about 800 men, with no units lost"

"Losses for Ukraine have been extremely light man and unit wise, simply becuase they have so few left and they are almost all gaurding their new capital>Since we captured the old one"

"Russian losses have been extremely heavy.An operation launched by our B-52Hs to reduce Russian air availability has destroyed not only more than 6 air facilities , but also over 50 russian aircraft.Exact number lost in unknown, but it could well be over 100"
"In addition Russia has lost large amounts of ground units to both the Polish and U.S. advances"

"The Baltic Union has also continued to be hit by U.S. Heavy Bombers, loosing large amounts of their ground units.Anti-air and artillary units were the prime target, but the entire south of the Baltic Union region is now almost completely free military units"
"Advancing into and occupying the entire southern half of the Baltic Unions region would now simply be a matter of ordering units to do so.
Resistance would next to nothing"

"The heavy bombers have also continued to make travel extremely hard in Europe as bridge after bridge has been destroyed.Of course with the crippling oil and military good shortages mainland Europe is currently enduring,their military is hard pressed to move at all anyway"

"Polish losses have also been high,an estimate is not currently avialable"






'We expect to introduce British units to teh war in Russia soon"

Good night and enjoy the rest of your dinner"

[tkobo]

The year is 2021, the day Jan 28.

"Good evening, we are here tonight to inform you of the large advances made in the last few months"


"Polish units managed to push all the way to Moscow fought a long running major battle for possession of the Russian Capital"



"The battle for Moscow finally came to a close on Dec 27th, with Polish forces securing the area.The battle lasted over a month and losses on both sides were heavy"

"Polish forces have since pushed well past Moscow and are now moving on the area of Cheboksary and Syzran.They are makign good progress and seem to have fully turned the corner in this war.Russian forces are showing major signs of "thining out".

"Our forces have all but the smallest part of Ukraine occupied at this time. We expect them to sue for peace,or flee, at any moment"



"The mock-up above shows all of Ukraine that not yet under U.S. occupation"
"In addition we continue to use air power to cover the Polish advance and to destroy the hostile regions of Europe's ability to fight back"

"American losses have climbed roughly 2,500 men, with still no units lost.
The climb is due mostly to more ground fighting and a push by naval forces to get in missile range of Moscow during the Polish push"

"We may be interrupting your activities again soon,as Ukraine surely must concede soon"
"Good night"

[tkobo]

The year is 2022, the day Jan 31

"Good evening"
"One short announcement"

"The Ukrainian government disolved today"

"All remaining units surrendered and have been ordered to be scrapped or sold"

"This brings to a total of 4, the hostile regions that we have defeated over the last 5+ years"

"The territory and its population will now be considered legal residents of U.S. territory as explained for the region formerly known as Mexico"

"Good night and rest well"

[tkobo]

The year is 2022, the day March 5.

Good evening"

"This briefing will give a small update on the current wars"


"The Lend Lease program again proved its worth as equipment transferred to British control entered the war , as units of Medium Infantry, and pushed into russian held territory"


"In other good news,U.S. forces are rapidly advancing into Austro-Hungary.Heavy bombers and fighter/attack aircraft continue to lead the way,making the advance both fast and reasonably safe"



"Those same aircraft continue to destroy any air facilities that could pose a threat to our units .Austro-Hungary and Greece now have no working air facilities in operation, and Turkey is down to its last three"

"Also, 10 new airstrips are currently being built in the area of the occupied lands of Austro-Hungary.These will eventually be upgraded into airbases.For now though, they will house another 70-80 units of B-52Hs that will be moved to the area and committed against enemy ground units"

"Good night, and sleep well"

[tkobo]

The year is 2022, the day May 4

"Good afternoon"

"The rumors youve heard today are true, after roughly 4 years of constant use, we have run out of the AGM-86C AlCM cruise missiles that we have relied upon so heavily in destroying our foes ability to fight"

"We were running a surplus in other missile production and have re-allocated that production to the AGM-86C AlCM .We are currently turning out roughly 586 every 5 days"

"Our current aim is to up our missile production capacity to roughly 1200 AGM-86C AlCM every 5 days, roughly double what we do now.But this will take some time, and be costly.Hence we are approaching that goal slowly, in increments we can afford without undue stress on the Treasury"

"The wars are going well otherwise with our forces on the verge of defeating Austro-Hungary."
"And British forces finally making some headway in the small area relegated to them for capture from russia"

"Polish forces have however stalled.They are still fighting in the areas of
Cheboksary and Syzran, constantly trading onwership of these cities back and forth".
"The main reason for this is the lack of air units weve been assigning to help their advance,which we have instead been using in Europe"
"It will likely be sometime before we re-assign air units back to helping their advance"

"Our air units have destroyed roughly 500 more Greek units , roughly 1,000 more Austro-Hungary units,70 more Turkish units and small amounts of German,French,and Italian units since our last update"
"In addition they have destroyed all of Italy's air facilites"

"We have lost roughly an additional 1,400 men and no units"
(((NOT sure where these men were lost, as most of the ground advance was without resistance)))

"Our research efforts continue to pay off as we have now passed tech level 119 on the "Goat Scale".

"This ends our briefing for this afternoon"

[tkobo]

The year is 2022, the day June 20th

"Good afternoon"

"It is with great pleasure that I inform you that the Austro-Hungarian Government has fled today."

"Our heavy bombers are continuing to destroy the enemy at will, clearing the way for our ground troops which are now pushing their way into Italy,Greece and Germany."
"American casulaties have climbed about 400 men,still no units lost"

"In addition, the British units have all but finished securing the small section of Russia they were tasked with"


"Polish forces have finally broken the stalemate in the area of Syzran,but are still failing to push past Cheboksary in the north"



"Heavy bombers have destroyed roughly another 170 italian units as they clear the way for our ground forces"



"This concludes our briefing for today"

[tkobo]

The year is 2022, the day Aug 1


"Good evening"

"Earlier this week,U.S. forces occupied the german border with france cutting off any possible reinforements.Than U.S. special forces marched into Germany from the north and city by city occupied all german lands."

"The special forces met no resistance as the heavy bombers had fully cleared the way for them"

"So it is with great pride ,we announce Germany has fallen and is now U.S. territory"



"National guard and special forces units will maintain peace in the occupied territory"

"We have also just today ordered the next stage of air facilities to be built, right there on the french border.These facilties will make pacifying France must easier ,time ,and fuel friendly"

"American forces are now set to push further into Italy and to start their push into France"

"Loses for U.S. troops were light with only 600 men lost ,and no units"

"Germany lost another circa 100 units and 25,000 men"

"Italy has lost circa another 190 units and 60,000 men"

"France lost circa 12 units and and 30,000 men"


"Polish forces continue to be stalemated in the north, but are slowly making ground still in the south"

"This concludes todays briefing"

[tkobo]

The year is 2021, the day sept 3

"Good evening"

"On August 28th, the first step of our push into France began.This operation was meant to draw out and destroy a large piece of the french navy.
The French Admiral, a fellow known only as AI , is known to be very easy to bait.And so we embraced a plan to use that weakness against him"

"The operation opened with a small ((( for me )))) missile barrage aimed at 3 of the French Navies new Battleships.Two were sunk and one severely damaged"



"At first the Frecnh Admiral did not take the bait, but instead asnwered with his own missile barrage aimed at the nearest DDX-21s"

"Over the next two days small missile engagements persisted with 2 more french battleships being sunk,but the french navy holding its ground,instead of coming out to play"

"Since we seemed unable to draw the French navy out, a small section of DDX-21s moved into gun range and opened up on the french fleet.Since the DDx-21s had a large range advantage they operated with immunity,sinking a few more french naval units"



"On sept 2nd, after large loses of roughly 60 ships,the French Navy started it attempt to close with the U.S. naval units.The U.S. naval units had been staging a staggered advance and had entered french waters,which finally forced the french navy to commit to an offensive"



"As the above mockup shows, this advance would put american naval units directly in the center of the two french naval forces"

"It was than, that disaster for the American naval units almost occurred.The American admiral in charge, known only as "OOPs" remebered that all his naval units in the task force, were armed with state of the art guns that had an area effect with their fire.Now due to treaties signed with allies, area attack weapons could not be fired on enemy units in allied territory.((( the game rules dont allow an ally to use sush aoe weapons in nuetral or allied lands)))"

"Fortunately, the admiral realized the issue when he spotted 5 french ships advancing towards the American forces thru british waters unmolested and orders a full retreat of the ddx-21s ,except for the few that were armed with anti-ship missiles"

"These 6 ddx-21s held the line and destroyed the advancing french vessels, than retreated back to the new line along with the rest of the fleet"

"The Admiral in charge, Admiral OOPS has been removed from the theatre and assigned to work with the navies helicopter pilots.He should fit in well there "

" A new line of approach is being considered and some naval units that dont use AoE guns are being rushed into production"

"And so the first advance of American naval power into french waters has been turned back .It wont be the last however and the new admiral, has staked his carreer on a successful next advance"

"This ends tonights briefing"

[tkobo]

The year is 2022, the day nov 26

"Good evening"
"It is with great pleasure we announce that Italy fell to U.S. forces on this day,November 26,after ground units advanced down the boot meeting little resistance"

"U.S. heavy bombers are now concentrating their operations against Greece and France,with ground forces already moving deeper into Greece"

" U.S. naval forces are repositioning themselves for the next run on the French Navy"

"In addition,2 new Lend Lease bases have started production in occupied Russia, closer to the current front.These bases will provide equipment to Polish forces in an effort to help them break the stalemate and advance deeper inot Russia "

"Good night, and rest well"

[tkobo]

The year is 2022, the day dec 11

"This briefing tonight was called with the sad task of informing the nation that the first U.S. unit to be lost, occurred off the french coast today"

"A ddx-21 received orders in the days confusion that made it move alone towards the french coast, sadly 3 french subs were lying in wait and the U.S. naval unit was lost"

(((( damn oversacking rule occurred , while units were moving thru another stack,which resulted in a single ddx-21 being sent one hex forward ))))

"We close this briefing by asking you to remember the men and women who go into harms way, to help keep this country safe."

((( and to growl a little, just a little,at an issue that still needs some work)))

[tkobo]

The year is 2023, the day Jan 11

"This month the push into france began in earnest again.Naval units entered french waters near Brest, and started to work along the coast northward"



"Soon after, heavy bombers started their runs clearing the way for ground units coming in from the north"



"In addition,U.S. forces have locked up and isolated the last remains of Greece and are advancing steadily into Turkey"



"Except for the one naval mishap, losses for the U.S. continue to be light as bombers and missiles remove most of teh resistance before ground units advance"





"This ends tonights briefing"

[tkobo]

The year is 2023, the day Feb 18th

"Good afternoon"
"We are taking some time this afternoon to catch the nation up on progress in the Wars,or as we will from this point call them all ,"World War 3"
"We believe its time to call this what it is, instead of just referring to it as individual wars"

"Our advance into France is progressing without many issues or resistance"



"Recon, has spotted a large amount of Spanish troops entering and entrenched in southern france.These units will without a doubt present a danger to U.S. forces as they advance to the southern border of France.
And so, the heavy bombers and naval unts are concentrating their fire, in the form of missiles and bombing runs ,on those spanish units.Missiles strikes are sent,then bombers fly in behind the missiles which tend to draw the majority of the enemy fire.This makes it safer for the bomber units to go in and do their job"

"The goal will be to remove spanish units from french territory and push them back from the border far enough so that they will not pose a danger to U.S. forces in france"


"As the above mockup shows,the air forces of local regions are now operating out of spain, as their own air facilities are destroyed or out of range.This made the spanish air facilties prime targets for U.S. missile strikes.Once those air facilities were destroyed,the enemy air units found themselves out of range or having to travel major distances in order to try and intervene"

"All the while U.S. forces continue to drive into France"




"On Feb 5th,U.S. ground forces ended the seige of Paris by pushing in un-opposed and capturing the capital"



"France moved its capital to Marseille, which U.S. forces than surrounded on Feb 7th, and captured on Feb 8th.This last capture caused the French Government to disband,and the territory to surrender to the U.S."

"On Feb 12th, after heavy fighting in and around the Greek Capital of Athinai ,it fell to U.S. ground force.The Greek Goverment moved to the new capital of Iraklion"

"U.S. forces ,which did not have any major transport units in the area, chose instead to destroy the new greek capital with large missile strikes"

"The Greek cities of Ermoupolis and Rhodes soon met the same fate as one after the other the Greek government moved to, and made each one the new capital"

"And so, on Feb 16th, with the last city under Greek control turned to rubble,the Greek government fled and the lands became U.S. territory"



"Unfortunately as shown above , some of the defecting Greek units came under instant fire from former greek units who defected to Turkish control.It was only due the hasty intervention of U.S. heavy bombers that no units were lost"

(((( really cant wait til this gets changed,but if youve read my posts you know this already ))))

"With that, we end this briefing.Enjoy your afternoon and remember to thank any military personel your fortunate enough to come across.They are fighting in foreign lands, so that we dont have to fight in our own"

Where on earth to you get enough time to do this? You must have spent 100's of hours to date on this -- which is cool, I'm just mildly envious and curious.

Its a time eater for sure.Each video took me at last 30 minutes, and some over 2 hours.

BUT while i am doing something like this, i also have at least one other computer running next to me, that i am doing something else on.

Like researching an antique,doing something with an online auction,reading the news, researching something thats gotten a hold of my interrests ,etc...

And since i am not working for anyone at the moment,except the family antique business, i have tons of free time.
And since i got the machine at the shop on the net , i can even do all this while "at work".
