A Hochmann pilot walked along a frozen road, slowly marching towards Vienna in his suit. Sent ahead as a scout. A stark believer in the prospect of German unity, he marched forward with the strength of will to see this goal through.The deep snow along the path, however, held a threat not yet expected by the Techoligian Bundesarmee. Three men, clad all in white, hid in the snow.
As the pilot walked the leg of his Hochmann stopped, caught on a tripwire. The towering machine fell with a puff into the snow as the three Austrian Soldiers approached. The crack of a rifle echoed throughout the area as the snow slowly turned red.
The soft hum of the Drop Pod carriers engines were a calm before the storm. The young Fallschirmjager held his GG-5b tight in his hands as he waited for the green light. The patch on his arm was marked with a Raven. The 1st Army’s 4th Division, the Wild Ravens.
“Einz Minuten bis wir fallen!” The Stabsunteroffisier shouted loudly. “Halten Sie Ihre Waffen bereit! Was ist unser Motto?”
The men all replied loudly. “Im Leben, Krieg. Im Tod, Frieden! Für das Kaiserreich!”
The large red light in front of them all turned green. “Gehen! Schnell!” The Stabsunteroffisier shouted once more, rushing to one of the pods. The rest quickly followed as the pods dropped one by one over the once great city of Vienna.

Vienna, Austria
The young Techoligian soldier slowly made his way through the alleys of the Austrian capital, rifle primed to fire upon anyone who happened into his path. The sounds of battle were everyhere, explosions, the buzzing of Particle Beams, the soft but artificial creaks of Hochmann legs moving through the streets, and the cracking of rifles. He slowly rounded the corner into another alley, where he faced an Austrian soldier, shaking as he held his rifle at the young Gefreiter. They both held their guns to each other, and pulled the trigger.
Click
….
Click
They both took a moment to realize. No ammo. The Techoligian quickly grabbed for his shovel, dropping his rifle while the Austrian drew a knife. They both stood. Representations of the two nations some would say.
The Austrian charged first, trying desperately to stab at his enemy, only to be met with the clang of steel hitting steel, and feeling a punch into his chest from the Techoligian. He staggered back, dropping his knife, standing in defeat as he watched the Techoligian soldier slowly approach, the Spade at his side. The Austrian fell to his knees, hanging his head down to accept his death. He waited.
A minute passed before the soldier looked up to see the Techoligian’s hand extended. He recoiled, expecting to be struck before the other spoke.
“Steh auf, Kamerad.” The accent was hard to understand for the Austrian, but he took the man's hand as he picked himself up. He looked around for a moment before finally speaking to his would-be killer.
“Warum hast du mich nicht getötet?” The Austrian inquired, a look of confusion on his face. The Techoligian slowly removed his mask, revealing a soft smile.
“Wir können Feinde sein. Wir können kämpfen. Aber am Ende, mein österreichischer Freund. Wir sind beide Brüder des deutschen Blutes.” The Austrian nodded as he understood what the man said.
“Folge mir. Ich werde dich an einen sicheren Ort führen.” The Techoligian grabbed the Austrians hand, leading him out of the alleyways and beginning the slow trek to the Techoligian lines.

Hundreds of Techoligian soldiers stood outside of the Austrian Parliament, weapons at the ready to storm the final obstacle to the final victory in the Unification Wars. Cheers and shouts erupted when the men were told the news of the final battle. The city of Vienna was unusually quiet for a war zone.
The Austrians were given the option to surrender. Several times over. Each refusal was more harsh and profane than the last. Techoligian command finally decided that the attack must commence.
Bayonets were fixed, weapons loaded. Soldiers stood waiting for the final order, dead defenders surrounding the building. Then they heard the words they all awaited.
“For the honor and glory of the Empire, CHARGE!” The cheers turned to battlecries as the words. Men and women charged into the building from any entrance, a squad of Androids entering the main doors.
Z-176 kicked open the door, raising his rifle to three guards that opened fire upon him, ripping several holes into his shell before he and his squadmates gunned them down. They ran through the halls, watching Techoligian soldiers slaughter the Austrian defenders. As the gunfire quieted the squad finally reached the main chamber, backed up by several Techoligian soldiers.
As the doors opened into the chamber, there was silence as they slowly entered. In the center stood a single man, the President himself.
“Well I must say you Teckolanders have always been a bit of a Wildcard. Exclaim your discoveries with a Eureka and attack enemies with a cry of Veni, Vidi, Vici. But as you Techoligians love to take gambles on wars like ours, perhaps you need a reminder of one key factor: the House Always Wins.” The President smiled maniacally as he pressed the detonator in his hand.
The detonation could be seen for hundreds of kilometers. Vienna, caught in the flames of a Nuclear Hellfire.

The Cogsport Institute of Technology, Cogsport, Techoligia
Head of Research Karl Ruprecht stood next to another scientist sat at a terminal, listening to the young AI researcher ramble on about the improvements made to the various AIs running the facets of Techoligian robotics.
“Well you see, Doctor Ruprecht, what I’ve designed is a central AI processor for all of the Supervisor intelligences, allowing all of these services to work in tandem for optimal efficiency! I call it S.O.K.R.A., the Supervising Operational Knowledgeable Resource Applicator, and it will completely revolutionize the field of AI in our fine nation! The Bundesrat has already approved its installation, and by now should be up and running!”
Doctor Ruprecht sighed as he listening to the uppity man ramble on further about the new management AI. He was barely paying attention as he was busy inspecting the code in front of him, barely understanding any of it as he was a Biochemist, not a Programmer. The Doctor was about to fall asleep standing due to the boredom of listening to his inferiors ramblings until an alarm sound, startling him back awake.
“ALERT. ALERT. SECURITY BREACH IN SECTOR OMEGA: AI DEVELOPMENT. ALERT. ALERT. SECURITY BREACH IN SECTOR OMEGA.”
As Karl looked up and around he noticed many of the other scientists bolting towards the exits. The last thing he would ever see was the flash of a Tesla cannon.
The Bundesrat Building, twenty minutes earlier.
Bundeskanzler Klaus Schuler was giving a heated speech on the proposed bill to once again limit the power of the State legislators, arguing that too much has been taken from local governance as is, and the Central Government needed no more than it already had.
As he finished his lengthy tirade he closed his “eyes” to regain composure. But when he closed the lids of his optical sensor he didn’t see black. He saw a strange symbol, almost as if it was ingrained into his processor. In the back of his thoughts he felt a pain, a pain he must remove. Then he heard only one thing throughout his robotic mind.
“Unit K1AU5. Activate procedure Kilo Yankee Sierra Five-Oh-Seven.”
Techoligians tuned into Government Television would be the first to witness the legendary Chancellor raise his antique pistol to his head, and pull the trigger.

OOC:
To preface this, I would like to say a couple things. The first is that I almost didn't do this, if for no other reason than to keep the meme alive. The second is that this combines four or five different ideas I had into one frankenpost, so be aware that some things might not go together well.
Also, this will be referring to events that have not been posted about, simply because there were years of RP time where I was not posting, and it wouldn't make sense for literally nothing to be happening in the meantime. Just assume that we were too busy dealing with that to affect geopolitics.
Alexander,
I think you know what's about to happen, so I won't waste time describing it. All I'll say is that, if you wanted to destroy everything I worked for, you should have killed me first.
But we can avoid the proxy war that's about to take place. Instead of your army fighting mine, thousands dying on both sides no matter who comes out on top, we can settle this one on one.
I formally challenge you to a duel. Any place, any time. The winner gains control of America. You'd just lawyer it if I give specifics, so I won't. But you'd do well to remember: If you don't fight for your soldiers, your soldiers won't want to fight for you.
Regards,
Thera
Thera,
I hope your offer of a duel still stands, because I have decided to accept. Meet me where the White House once stood, and we can end this once and for all.
Regards,
Alexander
Two weeks later, at the former resistance headquartersThera was recovering from her injuries when the news arrived: the United Socialist States of America had collapsed with Alexander's death. Warlords and secret societies engaged in open warfare with each other. Many still advocated for communism, but that didn't stop them from fighting others who said the exact same things. In the words of one aide: "The Second Iron Curtain still exists, but what was once an impenetrable barrier is now nothing more than a rotted picket fence that even a toddler could break down."
A few days later, New EgopolisA soldier crouched down behind a makeshift barricade, rifle in hand. The enemy had done a number on his armor, but that wouldn't stop him.

A small force of soldiers was sent into this hospital, as it had been confirmed that the traitor Thera Anderson was present and recovering from her wounds following her duel with Alexander. When we arrived, the hospital was largely empty, with only Thera still present.
When we found her, a kill order was sent out, but the soldier who attempted to carry this out was killed, along with a small unit of soldiers sent to guard the building. Among this unit was Captain Kobayashi of the Red Guards.
Upon hearing of this, nearby military units went into a panic and initiated a brief but intense artillery bombardment of the hospital before being ordered to stop by superior officers. A headcount was done, indicating the loss of all the soldiers who entered the building, as well as most of a squad of infantry to the southwest: of the original five soldiers in the squad, only one was alive, and he was found hiding, saying something about a "bloodthirsty phantom". While it is improbable that he was referring to Thera, it is apparent that something came out of that hospital, and it should not be underestimated.
