Yes, but eighty nukes. A ground invasions and occupation would be a much more reasonable response. and you know how the Italians from Footprint of Mussolini will feel about this.
And by "fired first", Israel didn't just fire first conventionally, but in terms of nuclear weapons, firing seven into Russia with one hitting Moscow and killing the insane Russian President and the other six being shot down. But anyways, what did you make of how many Polish soldiers decided to fix bayonets and make one last suicidal charge instead of surrender in Clash of the Worlds when things were doomed for the United Nations (desperate measures after India and the UAR surrendered and fear of countries jumping ship like those two led to the A4 centralizing high command and trying to integrate national militaries into a single United Nations Armed Forces)? How much was it driven by the crimes the Nazis had done to the Poles?
Well, India, UAR and Japan. Japan being much earlier than the other two, and actually outright defected instead of surrendering, actually contributing troops to the Coalition during the war similar to the German statelets and AANW China including the invasion of AANW Australia and the USA West Coast.
You know, I always wondered why they chose to name it Earth Solidarity Pact instead of the UN, but then I realized it all made sense given the name of united military of the AANW nations and all the war crimes and atrocities committed by the United Nations Armed Force during the war probably would leave the name a bad taste to everyone mouth, especially when trying to use it as a name for an organization based on safekeeping peace on the three worlds.
As for the Polish, I am quite positive that many of the Polish soldier during the war truly believed that they had no choice but to fight till the death and many of which influenced by the memories of the Nazis of their world. Marek Stepien battalion during the last stand at Washington however probably all realized the truth of what they are doing and how they are becoming the monster they sworn to fight, yet instead of surrendering, they chose to fight in resigned yet firm resolves. After all, almost all of their loved ones and friends are dead or missing by then, and what they swore to protect is lost when Poland fell and United Nations defeated, their actions would be held accounted by their enemies who would dictate the fate of their homeland and all they loved and are very unlikely to be merciful after the deaths and pains the United Nations Armed Forces have caused during the war.

It will have its spinoff, Culture Clash, the first to feature are that Wacky Redhead, when worlds collide and Player two Start.
What are your thoughts on the Battle of Washington episode with the memes regarding the characters who fought to the death in the ruins of the Capitol, @Tales Weaver?
Yes, considering that Polish soldier is played by Richard Madden and Sophie Turner plays Kira Antonova.
Well, l have a soft spot for Polonia Restituta, since the prevailing of the seemingly lost polish cause was always heartwarming, to me.
The Anglo/American war series on HBO was what made CalBear[ from this site one of the most sought after writers for alternate history everwere on TV, heck he have a room full of Emmys for outstanding writing and even a Academy award for his alternate history about US being ready for Pearl Harbor. HBO, Netflix, Prime all went after well known writers from AH.com after all and that lead to this list not having as many great stories as it could hav hade.

I know, CalBear has also worked in the producers of the Clash of the Worlds series along with the creator of Kaiserstein ajdb0614 and The Tiger Awakened Temeraire and all three are still working with the producers of the crossover series.

Well, that would mean that Blue Skies in Camelot would never get a novel series adaptation, which I think would be a darn shame.
OOC: Got it, I edited it to say the users names but so to not pinging them

I did, but Calbear did not object when i did that in a prior thread
Which, along with ROTR and FoM, would both be in the next season of Clash of the Worlds.
OOC: edited.
Oh this is going to be fun, though I heard that the two, Emerald of the Equator and Blue Skies in Camelot would be feature in the season after next season.
Anyway, how do you think the four new world will react to Kaiserstein, TTA and AANW worlds and their respective histories no to mention the War of the Three Worlds and the subsequent occupation and division of the AANW nations?
