Kråkmo, April 1940

Oskar Aaberg and his son huddled around the radio in their tiny, one-room cabin. Outside, a snowstorm was starting, huge snowflakes hammering the cabin. The room was lit up by a small fireplace, wood crackling as the flames consumed them. It was a scene fit only for Christmastime.
Yet, the mood in the room was far from jolly.
"... German forces have seized Oslo and are marching Northward. The Royal family has fled to London to escape the Nazi threat..."
Oskar sighed and glanced at the fire. "Boy, go and get some more firewood." Tobias nodded and went out the door.

Tobias crunched through the snow toward the nearby treeline, his breath making clouds in the air. The sound of the radio faded as he made his way toward a small log pile nearby. They would have to go into the woods soon and chop some more.

As he hefted a bundle of logs and turned back toward the cabin, he was blinded as an intense light flew past with a boom. Tobias screamed as he felt his back being burnt, yet he was deafened by the sonic boom it made as it soared over the mountain.

Across an area of 50 kilometers around Kråkmo, similar scenes played out. Some were shielded by the mountains and fjords. Some, like Tobias, were not.
Yet, for those who could still hear after the meteor went out of sight, they were treated to another boom from over the mountains, and the sight of a magnificent, kilometers-tall cloud stretching across the sky.
However, with the German invasion and the fall of Oslo, the event barely attracted interest from those outside of the area of effect. However, that would change very rapidly.
Even as the Germans advanced across Norway, they would soon face a threat unlike any they had seen before, one that would shake the very foundations of human society...



(LOOKING FOR A BETTER NAME FOR THE RP. TG ME FOR SUBMISSIONS.)

Welcome! As you can infer, this is to be an alien invasion scenario set in the heat of World War II. Our "friendly" aliens will be less a stereotypical FT empire and more a War of the Worlds style alien to keep things relatively balanced between the two sides. Speaking of which, you will have the choice to pick from any of the IRL nations in the world (I suggest picking one of the remaining European countries first), including the so-called neutrals. Yes, that includes Switzerland. To keep things simple, the role of the invaders will be filled by myself.

German Empire

OOC Nation: Great Confederacy of Commonwealth States
IC Nation: German Empire
Allied or Axis? Axis
Leader: Führer of Germany Adolf Hitler
Government: Over the past decade, the German governmental system has seen some major overhauls. Of course Germany transitioned to a democratic republic in 1919, following the abdication of the Emperor the year before. This government saw some succes until the late 1920s, when political deadlock caused by a refusal by centrists to work with the German Labourers' Party ensured that majoritarian rule was no longer possible. Instead, the German cabinet made use of the president's emergency powers in order to govern without the cabinet. This political deadlock was unable to solve major issues in Germany, including poverty, leading to the rise of both a popular communist party as well as a number of right-wing facist parties such as the NSDAP, the latter being favoured by business interests in Germany. Using an influx of funds from large industrialists, the NSDAP managed to fund the creation of their own private army, the SA, which they used to harass their political enemies.

In 1932, the centrist politicians of the Catholic party sought to break the political stalemate by turning Germany into a presidential dictatorship, removing legislative authority from parliament and handing it over to president Hindenburg. In order to achieve a necessary legislative majority in parliament for this reform, they planned to work together with the NSDAP. However, the NSDAP only wanted to work in a cabinet if they could appoint the chancellor, to which the centre parties finally relented. Upon taking power in January of 1933, the NSDAP used the power of the state and the SA to crack down on labour unions and left wing parties, eventually suspending democracy and abolishing the German constitution. In 1934, with the death of president Hindenburg, the powers of the president were handed to Hitler, combining them into the position of Führer.

From that point on, the power structure in Germany became informal rather than strictly deliniated. Power was held by various party officials with their own spheres of influence, with various powers and duties awkwardly split between different departments. The economy was led by two different offices, while all police duties were centralised into the Imperial Main Security Office under the SS. Actual power was held by Hitler through vague orders, which could be freely interpreted by inferiors. Actual administrative power was held by Martin Bormann, the personal secretary of Hitler, who managed his schedule and thus had enormous power over the Nazi administration. Eventually, a power structure emerged wherein the SS and its leader Heinrich Himmler became dominant in all affairs. By this point, all external opposition had been silenced.

Formally, the government is a dictatorship, but even within the Nazi government there is factionalism. This factionalism is actively pursued by Hitler, who uses it to pit potential rivals against one another in order to get them to do what he wants. The most powerful of these factions is the SS, but there are also other factions around propaganda minister Goebbels and Imperial Air Marshal Hermann Göring, as well as other minor figures. The entire system is managed by gauleiter, or Nazi governors, who are part of one faction or another and who constantly seek to enrich themselves, while advancing the Nazi agenda. This is mostly done through appointing loyalists to positions of inluence, including museum directors and soccer team chairmen. This process, known as gleichschaltung, has ensured that the whole of society remains loyal to the Nazi government.
Military: The German military is its absolute pride. Spending years preparing for the war to come, the speed with which it conquered Poland left little to the imagination. Investments into air power and mechanised units paid off, with fast tanks managing to outmanouvre their enemy and destroy them. Dive bombers combined with armoured assaults, as well as overwhelming air power, have made short work of enemies. This army has also made short work of Denmark, and is now underway with the occupation of Norway. At the same time, invasions of the Netherlands and Belgium are also planned, as are armoured drives through the Ardennes in order to outflank the enemy.

Howevever, not all is as it seems. While German propaganda makes much of its armoured corps and mechanised units, the German Wehrmacht still relies mostly on horse transport. The German economy is unable to produce enough trucks to fill the army orders, and even with trucks captured in Poland and Denmark, the army cannot make up the shortfall. The same problem goes for tanks; Germany has a lot of them, but many of them need spare parts that are underproduced. Especially the more complex tanks require difficult maintenance, and this has put many tanks out of order. Still, it is expected that the German army will be able to take out France, all other things being equal. Still, many in German High Command know that in order to win, the German army needs to win fast and force a quick peace. Otherwise, the reserves of materials like oil, tungsten and steel, as well as production capacity, will run out before war's end.
Economy: The German economy is, not to put too fine a point on it, a disaster. Before the start of the war, various economic ministers informed Hitler that his rearmament plans were infeasible and detrimental to the economy. The plan was always that momentary economic setbacks would be paid back with future conquests. However, by the time Hermann Göring took over the economy and ramped up war production, it was estimated that not even the conquest of Europe could pay back the amount of debt the German government had racked up. Besides this shortcoming, the German war economy is not up to the level of its potential adversaries, such as the Soviet Union or the United States. Its war production is decentralised and, most importantly, privatised, since the German industrialists that funded the Nazi rise to power were unwilling to part with their profits and made this abundently clear that nationalisation would not be accepted. Of course, one of the largest drains on the German economy is the fact that their social policies put large numbers of people out of work. Jews and women especially are disallowed from contributing to the economy, robbing Germany of much-needed labour.

Japan is a military dictatorship (idk if Stratocracy or Military Junta), led by General Hideki Tojo. Emperor Hirohito is still there, but more so in a representative/diplomatic position where he has no true power, and instead serves as the "Face" of the country. Japan has been a military dictatorship, as internal tensions were rising; the militarists always wanted their power to return ever since the Emperors made Japan less military-oriented and more civilian/royalist.

As Japan is led by the militarists now, the army is very honor-bound, Bushido still applies - the "Death before dishonor,' thing still applies, and most of Japan's tactics still apply except they do not attack medics, as they see no honor in attacking a defenseless person. If the person isn't a soldier or in the role of 'A warrior,' and most likely, is cleaning up after the damage, they see it as dishonorable to attack or hurt them.

As Japan is led by its military, its economy is mostly war-oriented and based off of myths and legends of raiding and pirating.

Allied or Axis? Axis Power
Leader: Benito Mussolini
Brief description of government, military, etc.
Italy, a Dictatorial & Fascist state with a proud past, now led by the infamous Benito Mussolini and the National Fascist Party (NFP). In the 20s and 30s, tensions arose between wealthier land-owning families and the poorer socialist-backed workers, eventually leading to the rise of the National Fascist Party.

Mussolini and the NFP are now attempting to gain more glory, wealth, and power, for the Kingdom of Italy through the conquest of Europe with Hitler, but they face many challenges. The economy lies in shambles, and the military is a joke. The economy, still on the brink from the First World War, had been wholeheartedly thrown off the edge upon the advent of the war.
The military, which hadn't been in great shape for 21~ years anyway, was now in a dreadful state. Their tanks were of poor quality, most of their weapons and artillery dated back to WW1 (and were far below the weapons of other contenders in WW2), the primary plane of the Airforce was the poorly designed Fiat CR.42, and the Navy didn't have an air arm.

Still, Mussolini has his pride and nationalism, and he is determined to bring power to Italy through any means necessary. He is ruthless and calculating in his judgments, and only helps those he may need. His military follows suit, and anyone who finds themself competing with Regio Esercito, Regia Marina, or Regia Aeronautica Italiana shouldn't expect to win easily or without great hardship.

Brief description of government, military, etc.
Government: A totalitarian communist government lead by Stalin. Stalin implemented many policies to industrialize the nation to catch up the West. The industrialization also included an expansion of the Armed Forces to protect the country from the West and anti-revolutionaries. The Great Terror (The Great Purge) only ended recently with Stalin believing (somewhat) he secured his hold to power and removed (most) of the anti-revolutionaries in the country. However he was still afraid of a Fifth Column.

Military: (OOC-It was surprisingly difficult to find this) - In 1939 the Red Army had an estimated 1.8 million men. After the Winter War Stalin now come to the conclusion that the Red Army could not fight a war anytime soon and he rapidly increased the Red Army strength. By 1941 it was 3 million. Most of the Red Army relied on horses, there was very few fully mechanized divisions.

As Japan is led by its military, its economy is mostly war-oriented and based-off-of myths and legends of raiding and pirating.

Claim: Regno d'Italia (The Kingdom Of Italy)

OOC Nation: Yokron Governmental Partisans
IC Nation:
Allied or Axis? Axis Power
Leader: Benito Mussolini
Brief description of government, military, etc.
Italy, a Dictatorial & Fascist state with a proud past, now led by the infamous Benito Mussolini and the National Fascist Party (NFP). In the 20s and 30s, tensions arose between wealthier land-owning families and the poorer socialist-backed workers, eventually leading to the rise of the National Fascist Party.

Mussolini and the NFP are now attempting to gain more glory, wealth, and power, for the Kingdom of Italy through the conquest of Europe with Hitler, but they face many challenges. The economy lies in shambles, and the military is a joke. The economy, still on the brink from the First World War, had been wholeheartedly thrown off the edge upon the advent of the war.
The military, which hadn't been in great shape for 21~ years anyway, was now in a dreadful state. Their tanks were of poor quality, most of their weapons and artillery dated back to WW1 (and were far below the weapons of other contenders in WW2), the primary plane of the Airforce was the poorly designed Fiat CR.42, and the Navy didn't have an air arm.

Still, Mussolini has his pride and nationalism, and he is determined to bring power to Italy through any means necessary. He is ruthless and calculating in his judgments, and only helps those he may need. His military follows suit, and anyone who finds themself competing with Regio Esercito, Regia Marina, or Regia Aeronautica Italiana shouldn't expect to win easily or without great hardship.

Military Strength (Estimated): 1.8-2.3 Million Soldiers

Union of Soviet Socialist Republics]

OOC Nation: Ferrum Hills
IC Nation: USSR
Allied or Axis? Allied
Leader: Joseph Stalin
Brief description of government, military, etc.
Government: A totalitarian communist government lead by Stalin. Stalin implemented many policies to industrialize the nation to catch up the West. The industrialization also included an expansion of the Armed Forces to protect the country from the West and anti-revolutionaries. The Great Terror (The Great Purge) only ended recently with Stalin believing (somewhat) he secured his hold to power and removed (most) of the anti-revolutionaries in the country. However he was still afraid of a Fifth Column.

Military: (OOC-It was surprisingly difficult to find this) - In 1939 the Red Army had an estimated 1.8 million men. After the Winter War Stalin now come to the conclusion that the Red Army could not fight a war anytime soon and he rapidly increased the Red Army strength. By 1941 it was 3 million. Most of the Red Army relied on horses, there was very few fully mechanized divisions.

This… this is interesting. Would it be possible to play as aliens…?

Edit: I know you will be playing the invaders, IE the War of the Worlds style guys, but… ah, could there be other aliens…?

Now that there is Japan, I suppose we could have a separate invasion force in the East... but Eclius gets first pick because they asked first.

Also, America is now been opened as the reservation has expired.

Additionally, as there is now 5 people with claims, we can begin. The IC will be posted sometime today.

Oh no, I meant a separate alien civilization. Since you were thinking the War of the Worlds guys, I was thinking Greys.

No. This is a PT roleplay, not All Tech. Like I said, the only possible way you'll be roleplaying as aliens is if you take control of the force in Asia or possibly one in the western hemisphere.

Alright, fair enough. I might make an app for any open nations.

We need Norway, Sweden, or Finland as our Scandinavian country. Otherwise, America and the UK are available as prominent countries.
