Imperium: The New Order

"Allied forces have crossed the border. This is a Blue Alert, repeat, this is a Blue Alert!"

-Transmission to all Polish military units as the British Imperium makes its way to the Soviet Union

Imperium: The New Order is a science-fantasy alternate WW2 rts made by ssbob90. Set in an alternate universe where, after the death of Hitler, fascism rose in England under J. F. C. Fuller, followed by an event, known as the collapse, which created large vortexes of time, known as dead zones, around the world, which brings in strange artifacts, known as Time And Universe Displaced Objects (TAUDO), many of which are far more advance than theirs or even coming from alternate universes.

Background
In 1946, operating out of a laboratory in Trinity, New Mexico, Albert Einstein uses a time machine to travel to 1924 and removed Adolf Hitler from history, hoping that it would prevent WW2.

But it was in vain, and in fact worsen the situation, as a new menace came in the form of Britain, as the impetus behind Hitler instead went to JFC Fuller. Fuller stunned the British public by sweeping into power with an Imperial Fascist League Supermajority in the 1934 snap elections on a platform of Anti-communism, a defense of Capitalism from the red tide sweeping the world, and a renewed faith in the British Empire with a daring endorsement of the idea of an Imperial federation; which was in truth little more than a cover for his plans to mobilize all corners of the British Empire to form a superpower that would take the vast lands of Russia, and the Industrial world of America. But he knew he couldn't do it alone. He reached out to the other European states of the world, asking them to put their faith in him to put an end to the communist question once and for all.

He helped fellow violent anti-communists get into power throughout his tenure, befriending fellow far-rightist Philippe Petain in France as well as Benito Mussolini, Salazar, king Gustaf V of Sweden, and Hirohito, with the first test of his policies being a British intervention in the Spanish civil war, which with the aid of France, Portugal, Italy, Japan, and the German restructuring he successfully prosecuted into a defeat for the Republicans, establishing Sanjurjo as the dictator of the Spanish. He furthermore, sought to aid the Japanese in their war with China, offering them the opportunity to buy fuel and raw materials from the empires of Europe in exchange for recognizing European colonial interests, with the promise of America's pacific territories and pacific Russia in the war to come being offered.

Fuller recognized that he needed time to build for his war against the Soviet Union; an increasingly communist leaning China, The Latin Confederation, and America, and so worked to mollify the Comintern, doing his best to play them against each other so that he could have the time he needed to build up his empire in preparation for war. He and his allies commenced with massive industrialization projects, known as the five-year plans, and began to arm and industrialize their very colonies in preparation for war. He had initially wished to start his war in 1940, but was persuaded to wait ten more years by a mysterious bald advisor and build up his forces in preparation for his assault on global communism.

On the 31st of October, 1950; Halloween Day, that time would come. On command his forces joined in what he called the Alliance of free states; but what would become called the British Imperium by everyone else, crossed the borders into neutral states across Europe in a drive towards the Soviet Union. Poland, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, Romania, Greece the Baltic states, and Finland were invaded simultaneously by a vast front with troops from all over western Europe and Fuller issued a joint declaration with his fellow leaders of the "free states" that now would begin the "great crusade to smash Communism.

At the same time, forces from Southern Asia, including the Raj, Indochina, and Siam were ordered to advance northwards into China while Japanese forces poured from Manchuria. The Soviet Union would also face attack on its pacific territories and upwards from the middle east as French and British Mandates and Turkey poured soldiers into the conflict, also making moves against Communist Iran. The integralist nations of Brazil, Venezuela, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Bolivia and the European Guianas would launch attacks on their neighbors with the intent of driving to the sea and eventually pushing up to Mexico to attack the united states, and "Thunderer" heavy tanks would stream down from Canada into American Alaska and the lower forty-eight, joining with Japanese forces making attacks on Alaska.

In an instant, the world was at war, with Fuller hoping that the huge number of attacks on every front would lead to the quick collapse of the comintern. He had underestimated the resolve of his foes, who while shocked by the sudden assaults, resolved to fight to the bitter end against their aggressors. The defining struggle between Fascism and Communism had begun and the world would see a conflict like no other. The invaded neutral nations had long suspected that any assault on them would come from the Comintern, and so were struck like lambs set upon by Wolves, and while Fuller's hopes for a quick communist collapse were unfounded, the internal bickering of the Comintern proved useful in making initial advances, and the neutral nations of Eastern Europe had proved incapable of halting the advances made upon them.

In this climate of bickering and squabbling, leaders such as Elvia Puerto, Josef Stalin, Pablo Neruda, Wang Jingwei, and others came together and decided that the International Comintern could no longer argue about how to reach communism from socialism, and would instead have to come together for the sake of the world revolution. China's more moderate path to Democratic Socialism, Stalin's authoritarian system, and Puerto's radicalism would have to work as one. And as such, the International Comintern was reformed into a strong military as well as a political and economic alliance, with directives to help standardize the militaries of the Comintern across the board.

While the communist fought against the Imperium in the east. The Americans fought against them in the west. William Pelley, angered by the European's betrayal, galvanized the Americans to take arms and fight, leading to fierce urban combat, as the Imperium underestimated the US military. Leading to the creation of nuclear weaponry, but a fateful battle against the Imperium had destroyed all records, and the researchers, to make it. With the US started to rely on companies to help them fight even against the Imperium, leading to an attempt at a time machine that caused the collapse, turning Antarctica, and other areas, into dead zones, places where the laws of time are gone as vortex of literal time hangs over it.

During this time an extremist group in Japan began causing havoc

In the end the war ended in a stalemate. As both the Union and the growing Corporate managed to push back and, followed by the Japanese backstabbing them, forced the Imperium to be on the defensive, and managed to stop them around Berlin, creating a wall that is known as the iron curtain.

On air, on land, and at sea Fuller's dreams were crumbling all around him as the advances in America were halted and crushed, the Integralists in Brazil and its satellites were being pushed back and back with Socialist revolutionaries preparing to rise up in Latin America. Canada would be dealt crippling defeats and witness its own liberation and after the crumbling of the attempts to hold the line in Europe by the capitalists, the final drama would be set. Even as what little nuclear armament they could make and increasingly more deadly superweapons were utilized by the four sides, the wave of the revolution had become unstoppable and the preparations were made to finally end the conflict even as the Allies were reduced to but a shadow of themselves; this would require an invasion of Britain and Japan.

Once the remainder of the Allies were dealt with, a final assault would be launched and first would come the fall of Japan, then Britain herself. Despite everything Fuller threw into this final defense, the forces of Fascism were ultimately doomed. Fuller holed up for a last stand in Downing Street as Britain was assaulted on all sides, and the Dictator of Britain would soon be found by Communist forces buried up to his neck in rubble.

Single Player

 * Tutorial - teaches the basic mechanics
 * Campaign - lead one of the three factions to victory

Europa Imperium:
An Empire formed by Britain, along with its allies of Europe. The Imperium revolves around superior firepower, ground supremacy, heavy armor, and reliance on highly advanced but conventionally based technologies, relying primarily on heavy armor divisions, generally being equal in speed or slower compared to other nations. The slow-moving nature of the juggernaut that is the Imperium military war machine is compensated by their raw strength and durability, epitomized by their Kaiser tank, the toughest, most heavily armed battle tank in the war.

International Union:
A communist alliance, though a more accurate term is state capitalism, between Russia, China, and South America. The Union centers on decisive action, mobility, subterfuge, numerical and air superiority. The Union is known for employing cheap infantry and armor to outmaneuver their foes while using advanced and experimental weaponry.

Corporate Monopolies Of America:
Formed around the aftermath of the war. America now consists of a board of companies aided by the police and PMCs. And in battle are masters of urban warfare, creating concrete jungles where they can defend themselves and rip apart their foes at long range, which consists of the enforcers, police tasked with protecting their property and beating any rioters, and the downtrodden conscripted with the allure of money, who act as cannon fodder/screening force for said enforcers.

Black Flag Revolutionary Force:
Formed by the people forced by their nation to fight for a cause they don't know, to worship those who will deny them medication and food if they don't comply or slave away, with the main Revolutionaries being Spain, Ukraine, Poland, Switzerland, and teh Washington area. The Revolutionaries are a force of communes that rose and unite to destroy the hierarchies and nation-states of the world, so that people may be free and equal, and will never have to bow to someone else to survive. Due to their irregular way of warfare they must rely on old, rusted, to outright improvised, vehicles and equipment from the first and second war wielded by elite infantry, volunteers reday to protect their homes. Utilizing guerilla warfare and stealth tactics at the start, due to inferior equipment, and slowly transition to a traditional army as they upgrade their aging equipment by "acquiring" modern technology and calling in more advanced machinery to turn the tide.

Southern Insurgents:
In the fallout of the war the Middle East, Africa, and India were left in ruin. And what's left of their nations are now lawless, chaotic, zones of petty fiefdoms and tribes where the strong subjugate the weak. And in battle are known to send in swarms of infantry to drown their enemies in a tie of bodies, often supported by vehicles and aircraft.

Grand Empire Of Japan
Thanks to extremists and the War Japan had regressed back into its feudal days, isolating itself from the world with its enslaved nations and readying itself to conquer the rest of the earth as was their divine destiny. The technology of the Empire includes high-tech, highly versatile transforming units alongside more traditional ones. The Empire's manpower is naturally not as much as one of the other factions. However, to compensate for this, they developed advanced technologies and mechas, drones and massive robots to fight for them along with their warriors. Including their base being a flying ship.

Southeast Asia-Oceania Alliance:
A coalition of Australia, New Zealand, and Southeast Asia, the SAO Alliance were part of the Imperium, as in they were British colonies, but broke off and refused further cooperation to ensure survival on their own. Instead, they build up their own military force. Preferring heavy armour, mechanized walkers, hover technology, and superior firepower over speed and mobility, the Alliance is good on defense and offense alike, often letting their foes break upon their defense before striking back like a steel tsunami, supported by powerful aircraft and navy.
