In an extremely surprise move, the English
government has ordered
military action taken against Scotland! In a massive
surprise campaign,
British forces plowed into the Scottish defenses along
the boarder. Though
England has the numerical advantage on the ground, the
massive defensive
works positioned by the Scottish forces in the last few
months has greatly
hampered the English advance! English troops have made
slow progress into
the southern reaches of Scottish territory, meeting
little Scottish resistance.
The lack of Scottish numbers along the boarder
with England has
proven to be an interesting military move by the Scots,
as just moments
after the first English troops crossed into Scotland,
Scottish special
forces, infantry brigades, and artillery batallions
revealed their concealed
presense in the Orkney, Rockall, and Hebride islands.
Though the English
military was preparing for an arial assault on the
Scots, over three-fourths
of the English air forces stationed in these island
chains was utterly
annihilated after a few brief moments of fire. The
surviving planes made
their way back to bases in England.
The English naval forces moored outside
Scottish ports have begun a
massive barrage of said ports. The Scottish naval
vessals which had been
under construction have been utterly annihilated.
English naval-based planes
have made key strikes against key positions inside
Scotland, but have
suffered unusually high losses. The new EuroFighter
2000 was implimented in
the attacks, striking devastating blows to the Scottish
industrial complex.
The United States ships in port have declared
that England is to
stop their attacks immediately and pay restitution to
the Scots, or the
American ships will open fire on the English vessals
and aircraft attacking
Scotland. Russia has officially declared support of the
English cause, and
has dispatched one Kiev-class aircraft carrier to
English waters to "guard
the interests of mother Russia." England has petitioned
Germany to join in
English efforts against Scotland, but has as yet
recieved no reply.
This attack comes as a surprise to nearly
everyone. The well-planned
Scottish defenses and positions have been the only
thing to save the Scots
thus far. The great victory over the RAF in the north
has hindered the
English advances perhaps even more than has the massive
lines of defenses
erected in the past months. Scottish artillery is
having a heavy toll on
English forces, who continue to push forward in the
face of fierce, though
light, resistance. It is expected that Edinburgh will
fall in a matter of
days if this pace of advancement continues.
The international community has, generally,
condemned the act of the
English. It is expected that the alliance systems which
have been forming in
Europe may soon take effect. Generally, battle lines
seem to have been drawn
in the following manner:
European Nations Allied With Scotland (Directly or
Indirectly): Nordic
Union, Denmark, Ukraine, Romania, Poland, Israel
European Nations Allied With England (Directly or
Indirectly): No official
alliances save Russia
The additions of American and Russian
aggressive interests in the
area brings the possibility of nuclear war closer than
it has ever been. The
English and Russian naval units, both stationed in
English waters, will be
face-to-face with one another, enemies for the first
time in nearly a decade.
"It had seemed that peace was inevitable...
then England failed to
attend the peace conference, and now they have attacked
our nation," begins
a high-ranking Scottish official "We can only hope that
the rest of Europe
is as outraged at this open act of agression as we are.
Our allies have made
assurances that we will be given support in this
matter, and we have already
turned to our friends in France for assistance. As of
yet, replies have been
nonexistant... but given time, we believe that the
European tide will turn
against the English, and they will be forced to give up
this pathetic
crusade of nationalistic interest. The English foreign
policy in the past
months since Prime Minister Sheffield has taken control
of England has been
nothing but nationalistic and militaristic toward
Scotland, claiming that we
have no right to rule ourselves, and no right to a
national navy. The nation
of Scotland freely joined the UK in 1707, and thus we
have every right to
seperate and thus have every right that any sovereign
nation has."
American officials commented today, saying "The
English actions are
dispicable and deplorable. PM Sheffield seems to
believe that we still live
in the age of Imperialism. The Russians support the
English, and for good
reason. A rift in European relations in the west will
no doubt give Russia
ample time to consolidate their position in Eastern
Europe. PM Sheffield
MUST be removed from office, forcibly if necessary, in
order to promote the
general welfare of Western Europe as a whole."
Japanese officials stated that England had been
warned of economic
sanctions should England attempt to invade Scotland,
and that Japan is ready
to impose heavy sanctions against the English
government.
