A Phoney War
from: A History of The Frostbite Campaigns
by Professor Vladimir Kutezedov
University of Hades
The Red Fields/Black Fortresses campaign was over before it started. The reason why has been a matter of dispute amongst historians for many years. Backroom deals and the collapse of shaky alliances are two answers. The UNA and ONI, as is usual with capitalists, fell out over money and ONI withdrew to pursue more lucrative conflicts. They did, however, maintain a presence on Elysee. The Cogs also became disillusioned. Despite the fact that their long-time enemies, the Therians, we... Read more »

Meanwhile, in a Red Blok tracking station somewhere on Elysee:
Technician 1st Class Vasilly Switchov was bored, very bored. He stared vacantly at the screen before him willing something to happen. His earphones were silent and his ears were burning after eight hours of
wearing them. All he had heard was routine traffic and the usual background hiss. At least his shift would finish soon and he could watch TV. After all, Red Blok TV was the best in the known universe. He hated these quiet times. Mind you, he wasn't too keen on the alternative either. He was just preparing to hand over to one of his colleagues when something caught his attention.
"Dimitri," he called out to one of his co... Read more »

Our fellow Therians have claimed victory over our adversaries and sent them running from the Emerald Mountains with their tails between their legs. Now my brethren it falls to us to remove our foes from the rest of this ice covered wasteland and claim it once more.
Even now, as I send this message out across the EMI grid to you, our enemies are readying their forces for war on new battlefronts. They wish to wage war on the Red Fields and are arrogant enough to try and attack our home on this planet, The Black Fortress.
They believe that till now they have been waging a war against our forces, believing that they can defy our will and deny us this planet, well my brothers they are sadly mistaken. The Red Fields shall turn crimson with their blood, The Black Fortress shall become their tomb and this planet SHALL BE OURS!
For Therra and For The Therian Empire!!!!

Extract from ‘The Memoirs of General Takmihatov, Hero of the Revolution’
AT-89 Emerald Mounts Campaign Once again the revolution had been betrayed and despite all efforts to find
them the culprits remained at large. Our leadership, for I was but a humble
lieutenant at that time, was in disarray and the campaign stuttered to a
halt with nothing but a brief high point when the starport fell to our
glorious revolutionary army. Elsewhere, the other combatants seemed to lose
interest and only the Therian/ONI Axis retained any fighting spirit. They
emerged victorious but their fragile alliance soon fell apart as yet
another battle ground was chosen.
The 2nd Red Fields Campaign was about to start and the conflict would soon
spread to The Black Fortresses. More forces would be thrown at the ice
planet by the five warring parties but alliances would shift as they each
sought the advantage. The Red Blok remained as the beacon of a collectivist
future and the Therians fought alon... Read more »

The Aftermath
The scene: Red Blok HQ on Elysee two weeks after the Mount Elysee disaster.
Commissar Ivan Ionu paced the small interrogation room. Two guards stood at the door watching nervously. A single light bulb lit the scene. In the centre of the room a barely recognisable figure was slumped forward on an old chair. Only the straps restraining it were keeping it from collapsing on the hard, concrete floor. The commissar nodded his head and one of the guards stepped forward and threw a bucket of cold water over the seated victim. Slowly and with much effort the figure stirred.
"I ask you again, colonel, how could it happen?” Ionu barked. "Not only did you fail, you didn’t even try. You are a disgrace to the revolution. There is more to this. You deliberately gave up that container ship to the damn monkeys. Why?” ... Read more » |

"Good evening comrades. In tonight’s programme we bring you the trial of Mikhail Tearemov, accused of spreading anti-collectivist propaganda and rumours detrimental to the common good. Hey, you know what’s going to happen; a fair trial and a fair firing squad. That’s life in collectivist paradise. As long as the rest of us are happy who cares what happens to the neighbours.

"Hello comrades, and it’s straight over to Elysium where our military correspondent, Mikhail Tearemov, has the latest. Mikhail....”
"Thanks Ivonta. As the third week of this campaign draws to a close news has just reached us that the Karman "Libra” faction has taken control of the Caves of Doubt. In a bitter, but short, battle they drove out the capitalist UNA. This means that the Karmans now control three of the areas north of the Spaceport. These are Mou... Read more »

EMERALD MOUNTS CAMPAIGN WEEK 3 (cont.)
RED BLOK BLUES
Who’d have thought it? Red Blok fails to take the Observation Post from the Therians. Next time they will face the ONI zombies. Will there be a next time? Watch this space if you can stand the tension. Or you’ve nothing better to do. "It will all end in tears” says a Red Blok spokescomrade.
More exciting still the UNA M.Ind faction was forced back to HQ in a Concorde Square meeting with the Karmans. After the meeting a triumphant Libra faction advances to the Caves of Doubt. There they will meet the Centcom faction of the UNA. |
The Emerald Mounts Week 3
Flying Zombies?
Captain Malenkov looked out of the Control Tower window. A scene of devastation and carnage presented itself. His command was being decimated even as he watched. On one side the UNA forces were getting nearer and destroying the bunker piece by piece and would be in a position to assault the tower he was defending. On the other side ONI units were approaching despite the delaying tactics of the Spesnatz Commando unit who had destroyed resources vital to the ONI advance.
