Swarm on the Somme
Created by Blackwave, 'Swarm on the Somme' deals with an attack on Earth in early 1915 by the Grex, a vicious extraterrestrial race of insects, or 'Roaches', as they are soon nicknamed. Landing initially in northern France, right between the frontlines of the Entente and Central Powers, in Siberia, and in the Australian Outback, they soon spread into North America and Japan, with the situation looking increasingly desperate for humanity.
Still in progress, this can be read here.
It also won the 2010 Turtledove Award for Best New ASB Alien Contact, and then the overall Best ASB timeline award.
