### The Build-up

For months the hypothetical invasion had been planned since the formation of CSTO and Russian High command, the operation planned was to be launched in Winter, during this time mass training had took place within the time frame with troops en-masse have been prepared for this moment.

American forces and leadership had been given a early warning of such invasion and took it serious, they predicted they would be facing a standard Naval or Air invasion.

But the expectation was blown away on the day of the assault.

### The Assault

In 5:15, Russian forces supported by CSTO (Codenamed: "Coalition Force") Paratroopers and Marine forces swept the legs of the American troops and forced them into retreat to the neighborhoods of Alaska and the capitol, after brief planning and leadership from NAPTO forces and American troops they quickly took up positions, it was there that a entire armor Cade of BTR-70s, T-72s, and light vehicles in a combined ground-armor assault tactic arrived at the city where troops valiantly fought to the death.

With push back after Push back, American troops would recapture the point, lose it, recapture again, and then when reports came in that TU-160 bombers were enroute to strafe the area NAPTO-American forces retreated, eventually the gap were left opened and so Russian forces quickly expanded and took over all positions to the point of the State of Alaska's governor surrendering to Chinese Marines, who had raided his home at night.

#### British Columbia

After taking Alaska Russian forces as planned moved down to British Columbia, it was there the bloodiest of the battle took place in Vancouver City as troops fought to the death with Russian forces taking a heavy toll to guerilla fighting and civilian militia's loyal to the Canadian Government, along with this of unconfirmed reports that government officials declaring a no law act, which created havoc and anarchy in the city.

While this spelt trouble for Russian forces it also dealt garrison damage to American and NAPTO troops as Neo-Nazi Militia's withholding a grudge against them threw Molotov's at their positions and would even collaborate with Russian forces in exchange for High positions in the eventual Occupation government.

As for those loyal to freedom, they fought hard and died, but their legacy wouldn't be forgotten by the American forces. However this wasn't enough as in 6:25 the operation ended in Russian Victory, resulting in the fall of British Columbia which opens the doorway to Seattle city.

### Aftermath

This event would go on to looting across the United States and Canada with high prices in gun sales, and stores being raided for supplies.

As for the Russian government this was a huge morale boost as popularity was in a high rise, (although some unconfirmed reports indicating that American Paratroopers dropped down in retaliation and went into hiding to act as spies).

The war has now shifted to the place no one never though would happen before with the public calling it.

RED DAWN.
