Re: Cold war Crisis.
I am aware that I've probably forgotten something and seeing as I realy do not want to trudge through those PM's again your going to have to remind me.
Day 7 July 1st 1981
Soviet Union invades China!
In a stunning development, the Soviet Union invaded the People's Republic of China, prompting a war between communists! The Soviets invaded en masse after a barrage of artillery fire and bombing raids, but were held up 100 miles south of the Soviet-Chinese border by the Chinese army. Naval forces have also pushed in from the north, going around Japan and flanking from the south. This war does not look like it will be over soon.
Soviet Union invades British South Africa!
A second front is opened between the Soviet Union and the members of the NAP, as the Soviets invade British-held South Africa. The overwhelmed British forces are forced to retreat as they are outnumbered at a ratio of five to one. Russian bombers, artillery and combat battalions moved in, and now occupy much of the country. If there was any question as to whether the Soviets could fight a war on two fronts, that question has been answered now.
With these stunning developments, most of the world is now embroiled in what may come to be called World War Three; that is, if there are any of us left to tell the tale.
Eastern Germany invaded by Czechs, W. Germans
Czech forces assaulted East Germany, taking heavy casualties and were eventually repelled by East German forces. However, East Germany was invaded by the West, and the East was overwhelmed. Warsaw pact nations all have declared war against Czechoslovakia and threaten NATO as well if they do not withdraw immediately from East German territory. At this time, it is unclear whether or not NATO forces will withdraw from East Germany, and spokesmen from several European governments could not be reached for comment. As these extraordinary developments continue, there will be further updates.
French Forces withdraw from Somalia
In an interesting reversal, the invading French army withdrew peacefully from Somali territory, possibly in order to appease rising anti-French sentiment in the global community. The local government still has not restored itself to power, and the vacuum of authority has led to further lawlessness and piracy. It may be some time before Somalia is restored as a full-fledged nation.
Leaders of the IRA terminated by special forces
Many leaders of the group known as the IRA were located and destroyed after an aggressive campaign by British special forces, likely in response to rising acts of terrorism by the revolutionary group. It was not immediately clear who would replace those leaders, or if the IRA would call off its actions once and for all.
