Apocalypse: 1936 (PT/OOC/OPEN)

[Domerstresseistan]

And on-top of that, Billings was completely depopulated and ransacked oof. Planning on destroying the rest of the towns in the occupied area as well.

[Union Princes]

I thought we were all pushing together

[Strala]

I assume that the leader of the federal coalition would have been smart enough to scout ahead. Did he not?

[New Sriker]

Striker, what the heck happened to our coalition? We're supposed to be meeting up and planning an organized assault

It was planned that Huey's men would attack, with some help from local partisans from the Southwest while Butler's men and the FOI attack from the Southeast, then after pushing up would meet at Montana's capital(Hopefully)

Edit: How did the Phalanx know that Huey's men were attacking, that sounds fishy to me Ngl

There's already a bit of a forward operating base outside of Helena with the airbase there by the Montana National Guard. So I would presume they'll be arial recon at the very least from them.

Arizona megapost made, with a surprisingly invigorating speech from Timothy Grant.

Oh Sonora is in for a supremely bad time, we need to get together and collab on this bc Sonora is gonna be facing down 3 armies worth of planes, tanks, artillery, and men, not to mention 2 carrier groups. This is gonna be a big fight.

[Union Princes]

I'm gonna need a map and a post from the OP on Federal troop movement against Montana. Cause right now, everything is falling apart. I had already written that the AFP has linked up with the NOI and NRA hence the hostility towards each other

[Spiritual Republic of Caryton]

Sonora has fallen, in technical terms and Arizona's claim is now fulfilled. Grant made a foamy speech directly to DC and Mex City. Threatened to use infant grenades but also promised new glory. A very dualist man.

Do assuming that he had that, wouldn't they notice 3500 or so men moving towards a specific location?

I agree. This whole situation is getting out of hand. On that note, of you ever find the time, can you make a posts the KMT

[Union Princes]

KMT? You referring to the OP?

Krypteria Agents had been sent out by Leonidas around Montana and beyond to keep the Iron Phalanx's leadership in-loop with impeding movements. That an invasion seemed inevitable anyways because of the given stalemate.

[Strala]

Yeah

Very likely so I would imagined, especially if they're using the main roads.

Yeah this is getting confusing, I'll fulfill the federal's end with such a map.

KMT? You referring to the OP?

Yeah

And yeah I'll get to it at some point.

Get me in the loop on the Montana map so I could detail an approximation of the Phalanx's occupation and current positions.

ooof, sorry man I should have given you more details man

[Union Princes]

Striker, please, can you edit your post so it reflects mine? This is one of a lifetime chance that the political factions actually meet up and join forces against the common enemy

Could you make it to where your post is in one of the Towns captured in Leatherback, because your post seems to take place not in a battle. Not trying to sound rude, sorry if it did tho.

What kind of Air Force does Sonora actually have?

Montana Map of Federal controlled lands.

I allow this map to be edited further and filled in by other players

To describe the General Movement of Federal Forces in the area:
-Helena is staying put and playing defensively.
-Outer border regions are making small pushes into the State proper against the Iron Phalanx.

Remnants of what the Americans left circa like 1934-1935, plus a few reverse engineered copies but due to Sonoran Superstate's infancy, the copies aren't that numerous, especially when Grant ordered the prioritization of anti-air assets to be mass manufactured to counter balance the strength of America's remnant airforce. Sonora's anti-air capabilities definitely dwarf it's air capabilities, but that doesn't mean their air force is weak. Just prioritized for defense and whatever threats Grant makes of oblivion.

[Union Princes]

Striker, I posted before you. It would disrupt the pacing to have the meeting take place after the battle before your post about the battle.

Well man, I had that post written out a day ago, but was waiting for Huey's response to Butler, than I had to fix up the post a few hours ago since FOI showed up in support, I then adjusted the post to include them, and by the time that was finished, you posted, so it sorta messed up the whole vibe you know?

[Monsone]

Alright, I got a new post up and I'll post about the Soviet shopping spree in Germany relatively soon.

Okay, so here's what I've got. Over the last two months, the RSM has been preparing for a push into Sonora and Baja cali, laying down rail lines, setting up and hiding artillery emplacements, moving air force assets into the former anarchic states as they were taking them. Sonora getting invaded by arizona sped up a timeline that they were already on to capture former Mexican territory.

So you're going to be facing down the 5th, 2nd, and 3rd army, totaling 350,000 men and several dozen armored columns, the 5th-12th Air groups, totaling 750~ish fighters and 400~ish bombers, and three carrier groups with a near identical compisition to the 1st Pacific Carrier Group, including the ARSM Águila, which is the biggest and baddest carrier the RSM has, and the ARSM Tenochtitlan, which carries 4 batteries of three 16" guns apiece, not to mention subs, destroyers, minesweepers and heavy cruisers.

Now, in order to write this next post, I kinda need to know what I'm throwing these guys into, and how effective these defenses are. What do you think would be an acceptable level of advancement from Mexico into Sonora, and what kind of losses should I be looking at?
