The aliens destroyed it! It is pretty sad that it took them until 2012 to get to the moon.

2015, actually. It's supposed to kind of show that the United States in the 60's was better than a modern Nazi Germany.

And nope, it ain't aliens. *keeps suspense going*




Oh, that's okay. One day won't stagnate us.

Nope, ain't that, either. *suspenseful music plays* I'll give you a hint: I'm kind of thinking it has something to do with McCoy's strange knowledge of history... I'm still working it out, so it'll be a little while till the truth arrives.

Hmmm... I think you're right about the Swiss... It was kinda a random thing I stuck in there...



I don't really know... Strategy might make them just bomb it with missiles... If they wanted a quick, crushing defeat, however, the a-bombs would be flying. I'm thinking they wouldn't, as it is such a valuable area. The Lincoln Memorial itself is supposed to be made of solid gold.



Yes! I want West Virginia in this. I lived there for many years. I know the families(dozens, literally, and yes, they are as backwoods and rivalistic as you think), I know the history, even the "West Virginia War," where we got the term "redneck" from the bandannas miners wore around their necks, have West Virginians in my own family, and I know the cities. It'd be so cool if I could write about cities I lived in and visited. For any of you who don't understand the importance of coal in WV, just watch the TV show "Coal" on Spike. That'll tell you everything you wanna know. We knew people who lived right next to that exact mine, in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McDowell_C ... t_Virginia although we lived quite a ways away. It's supposed to be the worst county in the state. In real life there are roaming muggers and gangs out in the woods, and it's dirt poor. One guy-we-knew's grandfather was the first man in the country to get a food stamp.

Most of what I learned of fairly recent WVA history came, interestingly enough, from reading Eric Flint's 1632 series, and when the Up-Timers (West Virginians who got zapped back in time to the year 1632 and into the direct middle of what is now Germany) kept making references to events like the Matewan Massacre, I decided to look them up on Wikipedia and found out about things like the Battle of Blair Mountain and such....

Anyways, here's my sucky pic of Hauptmann Ryan Lautenslager (In his dress uniform) and Mark Eichenlaub in his battle fatigues (and holding his STG-50 assault rifle):



...yeah, I know I need to get a new camera (seriously, I had every light in the room on, both windows open and even had my 2-D cell flashlight with the super-bright LED bulb focused on the figs, and it STILL turned out dark... You'd think NIKON of all people should be able to make a decent digital camera! ...Then again, I DID buy that thing in 2002 or 2003.....)

Nice figs! I used to use a terrible camera, meself.



Haha, I gotta read that!

Battle of Blair Mountain = WWI between miners and doughboys. That was unbelievable... They actually had biplanes and trenches! Even BAR machine guns!

EDIT: Here's a USSR nuclear targeting map from the Cold War. It should be useful for us.

OK, here's the latest and greatest map, based on the latest info:

let me know of any additions/changes you want to make....

Haha! I'm director! I like Occupied, thanks SM!

IT should be rated PG-13 'cause of: Violence, mild language, and awesomeness factors.

Looks awesome! Which editor are you using?

@Khopesh: Indeed, my friend, indeed.

Should we get Gecko to edit?

I'm thinkin' yes. He's quite excellent with language and a also a friend of mine. If you were thinking of my post above, I actually meant "photo/picture editor," i.e. Paint, Photoshop, etc.

Oh, I wasn't refering to that.

Your first characters Napo...
