Welcome everyone, new and old players alike! This is Tundra civ, a civ thread series in a fictional, non-fantasy setting where you play as the rulers of the White Republic, a nation in a world similar to our own.
Check out the pastebin for story, technologies, stats etc (updating it right now)

Previously on Tundra civ:
The Spirelords - the four remaining leaders of the Organisation - have begun to unleash the machines of war their ancient, yet advanced technology has built. In the Summer of 1194 After the Exile they opened the Vault under Vajni and unleashed a massive, flying dreadnaught - what we called "The Doomship". It took our entire airforce's power to eventually bring it down. We began preparing for war and now it seems that war is upon us - it is now early 1196. The Spirelords completed the construction of their Global Underground Tunnel Network. They assaulted and took over three of the remaining six Vaults, gaining whatever technologies are locked within. Now the Enemy has unleashed metal monstrosities from the Deep, attacking key points across our nation, in particular the three remaining Vault locations.

Lt.General Malhus was leader of Operation Whack-a-Mole, which breached a part of the tunnel west of Pirusat - that was our first encounter with the automatons, the new soldiers the enemey has unleashed upon us. Malhus proved himself to be highly capable and not only held the line, but pushed the enemy back and destroyed the tunnel exit, after which he wiped out the enemy force of around 3000 armored soldiers and light automatons and around 60 heavier vehicles - tanks and walkers of various size and firepower.
That tunnel's been sealed and the enemy in this area has been destroyed, but the Spirelords have opened up many surface exits across all continents and machines and armored soldiers are pouring out - it is a state of Class 1 emergency, all armed forces are on battlestations.
Seven Vaults are known to us - four have already been looted by the Spirelords - Vajni, Kayans, Ahmanud and the Eye of Sand. The three they are now aiming for are located in cities we directly control, all in Aymsland - Mikson, Babaduand and Victory. Metal armies are being unleashed across the globe, however - they are targeting key infrastructure points and sources of strategic resources - petroleum, uranium, titanium, aluminum, iron and coal - they are targeting less-defended mining settlements and smaller industrial cities -the goal is likely to cripple our manufacturing capabilities as quickly as possible.
The crisis is still in its first hours, but Centerhold's High Command must make quick decisions on how to deal with it.
Our armed forces are dispersed across the nation and each army is ordered to be dealing with the closest enemies at present
The Valley of the Heart in Veita is being heavily targeted - the interior of this continent is rich in some of those key strategic resources that the newest generations of military machines use.
A similar situation can be found in Ocras - the smallest of the four continents has the weakest military presence, even relative to its size and population - its vast mineral wealth and the lack of competition allowed colonists from our nation to turn Ocras into the richest of the 8 Areas in our republic.

Let's hit them hard
I'm back, and I was just catching the last two thread I missed. People thought the bad rolls were from me kek.
>>47591534
J. Set up military bases in the three remaining cities that have vaults and are in our control. Have 2 Maargard divisions placed in each city and begin construction projects involving bunkers and strongpoints in the city.
>>47591885
Nah, we felt from your absence you had merged with one of the other anons.
As to your vote, we are in open conflict we don't need to state an effort to assault them. Not to mention we are mostly on the defensive.
>>47591944
I'm going to change my vote F so as to avoid any deadlock.
>>47592051
Thank you anon, your vote shan't be wasted.
Okay then I change my vote >>47591885
to F >>47591534
>>47592045
Well it's nice that anons felt my absence
>>47592078
>>47592091
You two just sent us back into deadlock as >>47591944 changed his vote
>>47592112
Not really made us go deadlock since I've change my K vote to F
So counting it it's 3 F with me, Galenus, and anon to 1 k
All right, we've got some players, so let's have a mixed result with decision.
It's been several hours since the first fights have broken out. The enemies are consolidating their numbers. Several smaller settlements have already fallen. Their numbers are growing and each of their foot soldiers is worth several of ours, while their heavier vehicles are also deploying kinetic barriers. The good thing is that so far we don't have any reports of enemy naval or aerial forces, but they have strong AA capabilities.
The standing army knows its job, but what policy will the government take right now?
1.Military
A.Focus on the defensive
B.Let the generals decide what's most appropriate
C.Counter-attack!
2.Economic
A.Declare a state of total war, mobilize reserves and maximize military production
B.A state of war, raise the militia's readiness, deploy the best of them to the frontlines and increase military production
C.The army will handle this - this can't be called a war, it's a large-scale terrorist insurgency - this will be over soon enough
>>47592168
A.
B.
>>47592168

I know this reaction may seem extreme to the people but if we need to we can point out that we know they are related to the doom-ship. That should motivate the people.

>>47592168

2.A.Declare a state of total war, mobilize reserves and maximize military production
We need to declare total war, we fighting the nose. We can't do the same mistake Hitler and declare total war by the end of the war.
>>47592168
>B.Let the generals decide what's most appropriate
A.Declare a state of total war, mobilize reserves and maximize military production
A state of total war has been declared - all available resources will be mobilized to support this war effort. Airplanes, tanks and anti-armor weaponry in particular will be prioritised - small caliber weapons are completely useless against these enemies.
Operational freedom has been given to each Regional HQ. The militia will be mobilized - it's total war now.
Give me 3 1d100 rolls now - 1 for our war preparations, 1 for our generals and 1 for the enemy's performance(high would be good for them).

The factories have begun their production and the militias are mobilizing and being prepared for war.
Fighting so far has been mostly smaller skirmishes, but it seems the enemy has maneuvered a large force to attack the major city of Mikson in Aymsland - it is home to one of our Vaults and is the largest city in Aymsland's Southwest. The army base outside Mikson was destroyed in a night attack and now the remaining troops and militia are defending the city in the hours before the sunrise - our enemies aren't troubled by low visibility at all.
The garrison is ordered to hold their positions and prevent the enemy from gaining access to the Vault at all costs. The Battle for Mikson has begun!
We've got 15 000 professionals, 40 000 militia, some fortifications and light artillery support as well as 50 tanks. Enemy estimates are at around 20 000 armoured infantry, 500 light combat vehicles and 100 heavy combat vehicles.
Let the battle begin!

The enemy is pushing through our outer defence lines. Most of our forces are now concentrated in the inner parts of the city, a large hill rising above the plains - it was once home to the palaces and grand temples of the Kafi Empire and the local Spire. Underneath is the entrance to the Vault, the enemy's ultimate target.
The first light of dawn is shining from the east - air support is inbound as well as a Blitzkrieger armored regiment. We need to hold the line!

We can still win this, I mean they already had four vaults so really we have only increased their potential by 25% assuming the vaults were all the same.

6vs89
The enemy's larger walkers were almost impervious to our attacks. They blasted through the defence lines, the sheer terror of this unknown foe led to many militiamen fleeing. The battle is lost - the enemy has looted the contents of the Mikson Vault and occupied the city. By the time reinforcements arrived, they were the only ones left to oppose the automatons - suffering heavy losses, the 3rd Blitzkrieger armoured division was forced to retreat.
All contact with Mikson has been lost. Parts of the forces we had have managed to escape and regroup with others, but overall losses have been heavy - over 60 000 men, 200 tanks and 100, including the casualties from the raid on the large army base.
Day 3 of the War - no major losses so far other than Mikson in Aymsland, but over a third of the industrial towns in the arid lands of Ocras have fallen, heavy fighting in Valley of the Heart in Veita
Next course of action?
>>47592974
Yeah, I know. We still have many battles to fight still, and good thing we are in total war production because we're going to need it.
>>47592996
Take care of the enemy in Valley of the Heart, while the other places set up major defenses.
>>47592996
Begin systematically sealing off all of their exits from the rail system by gathering as many of our forces together as we can.
For our militia, we must establish containment on all of their breaches and begin setting up defences.
We outnumber them but we don't out-quality them. This war is the opposite of everyone we have fought before.
>>47593041
An additional point, how are we coming on nukes? As we may need them for my backup strategy of blasting the vaults open triggering their fail-safes.
>>47592996
Arrest and execute the commanders responsible for the fall of Mikson.
Rally are forces in Veita while we prepare for a counterattack in the valley of the heart.
Deploy Maargard and erect defenses in area of Ocras that we still control.
>>47592996
Rush to open all the other vaults, we need that technology, And I suggest we go on the defensive.
Also
>Pic Related
Luck has come back to haunt us.
>>47593113
We lack the capabilities to open the vaults as we don't have access to the key for them, which is in the hands of the organisations members.
Have we managed to retrieve any of the technology from the battle field?
>>47593124
Then we shall go on the defensive and hold the vaults.
>>47593216
We tried but Inky was I charge of rolling for us.
>>47593222
I did a good job too ;-)
Across most fronts we are assuming defensive positions, while in Veita we are preparing a major counter-offensive. The forces we had in the Valley of the Heart have largely been wiped out, the last survivors are defending Heartvale.
General Yargis is in command of the assembled 10th and 12th armies outside of New Mikson, the capital of Veita. He has 160 000 fighting men, with 230 tanks and 300 combat aircraft. His orders are to push the enemy out of the Valley and secure our vital strategic resources and industrial centers.
Lighter resistance on the way was encountered and crushed - the troops are now leaving the desert and entering the warzone.
Having established radio contact with the surviving garrison, enemy numbers are estimated at around 33 000 armored infantry and 1000 vehicles.

Bad news - the enemy has air capabilities now!
Though few in numbers, the fighters they are employing are fast, durable and maneuvarable - they are dealing heavy losses to our own fighters and bombers, we've lost our air superiority, while combat on the ground is continuing with high casualties.

Though our men fought valiantly, the enemy tides were ever increasing. Having lost our air superiority, our supply lines came under attack soon afterwards. Knowing no fatigue and no fear, the enemy is capable of fighting without stop. The prolonged engagement exhausted our capabilities as our armored support dwindled - eventually a withdraw was authorized. Taking as many civilians with him, General Yargis organized a retreat properly.
Losses are estimated at 40 000 men,250 aircraft and 180 tanks. The enemy is targeting our anti-armor capabilities, it seems.
The Valley of the Heart has been lost - we've taken what we could with us as we've retreated.
Now rolling for the general war effort during the operation - it lasted two weeks and there was plenty of fighting elsewhere to be done.

Okay time for backup plans A, B, C and D in order of extremeness.
A - We blow the vaults, destroy their contents and establish our defensive lines again where ever best.
B - We preform the above and begin WW1 level mass charges with militia with dumb-fire anti-tank missiles and such.
C - We send a token force into an area, attract their forces there and then bomb the fuck out of it with every gun, bomb or plane we can muster.D - We nuke any of their exits to the surface we can and preform the above plans elsewhere

This war isn't going too well. We're losing ground on every front - the entire arid region of Ocras has fallen. Lots of casualties across Eyerdar and Aymsland - at this point we've lost most of our armor and around half our airforces, but with full war production we're making up for part of that at least. We've got plenty of manpower to spare, but the enemy is now disputing our aerial superiority as well.
The Kaichou and Sunset Alliance are currently occupied with fighting off the aggressors on their own fronts, but the worst news is from the NPU - lacking an army, its meager defence forces have been completely rolled over, most of the NPU's cities have been occupied, the government is holed up with the last resistance they have in Marzhibur.
A month has passed since this war began. What shall we do now?
>>47594053

>>47594103

>>47594103

>>47594103
we need to get that tech for ourselves organize an effort to retrieve some from the battlefields
>>47594103
First off, evacuate anywhere that might get cut off or can be used to reduce the length of the line of battle.
Detonate the vaults and gather our most elite armed forces together. We will use them to preform an attack on the nearest entrance and then prepare to do it to the next, then the next and so on.
>>47594103
Mass produce large caliber machine guns and autocannons and put them on trucks. Should be a cost effective solution to enemy air power and androids with power armor and stuff.
>>47594169
switching >>47594125
Well then don't detonate the vault.
We must nuke the tunnels, B and D destroy all they means of travel and locate where they are coming from.
Also back at home now, that party was shit the music sucked and most of the folk there were assholes.
Why didn't i come here to help you guys fight, would have been a much better use of my time.
We'll keep on fighting and we'll attempt to reverse-engineer the enemy's technology, but there is one major decision that must be made.
We have the ability to destroy the two remaining vaults - one under Babaduad, the other under Victory. Doing so would mean we will never have access to the technology hidden within, but the same will be true for the Spirelords.
The Kaichou God-Emperor has sent us a message - he asks us not to destroy the Vaults.
A.Blow them up
B.Heed the Emperor's words
>>47594103

But can we blow our way in?
>>47594282
B.Heed the Emperor's words
I must ask that he tells us what is in these vaults and explains to us how to make those missiles that he used against the doom-ship, as I imagine they would be quite effective.
>>47594307
It's the same thing - the Vaults have security precautions that would activate a self-destruct sequence if we were to force our way in - the only way to access them is through the Key, which the Spirelords have.
>>47594282
>A.Blow them up
>>47594307
We can't break into a wault, he told us that before, doing so would destroy the content.
>>47594322
>explains to us how to make those missiles that he used against the doom-ship
yeah full tech sharing should be a thing right now, we need them to fight and they need us to fight.
>>47594282

If they have the knowledge they will make more of these and we cant afford to be unprepared
>>47594325
I have a plan, let's make a Mech with nukes, MGS style.

We won't touch the Vaults yet.
We've assembled all the materials we have gained - remains from the destroyed automatons and vehicles.
Give me one 1d100 roll for research

What we're learning is advancing our scientific development by years - while some enemies are human soldiers clad in armour, most are automatons powered by miniature computer systems! Most of their electronics are destroyed along with them, but from what we have salvaged, we've gained much practical insight. While our computers are based on the usage of vacuum tubes, the automatons' systems use what we are calling "transistors". We can't match the power and miniature size of the automatons' processors, but we're making great leaps.
In other fields, we've gained even further insight on the ways their metal alloys are made and how their armors are designed, giving us a better idea of how to damage them as well. What we've recovered from the human armor suits is the idea to implement flexible, but strong synthetic fibers into the creation of body armor - our first models are using aluminum segments woven into nylon vests and we are experimenting with other designs and materials as well.
The enemy infantry are primarily using a weapon similar to our own assault rifles in their base design and function. Our newer automatic rifle designs may not be able to match the firepower of the automaton infantry, but their accuracy and reliability is superior to the earlier models we had, while using the powerful 7.62×39mm cartridge that can damage the lighter enemy armors. We've also designed better rocket launchers for anti-armor usage.
We're making improvements all-round, but the enemy is still gaining ground.
Give me 1 roll for our war efforts and 1 for theirs.

The war seems to be slowing down for a spell as a heavy winter has set in across the northern hemisphere.
The enemy has consolidated much of their gains in Ocras, Veita, Western Eyerdar and Southern Aymsland, but it has also allowed us to regroup and rearm our forces.
It's now spring of 1196.

We steamrolled every enemy until now, and now we're getting a fierce beating against a superior enemy, we're feeling what they felt, being crushed by a strengh greater than us.
But what they lack is inovation,change, We are not machine, we are not fixed in one position, we will crush them like the ever flowing water onto a rock, even if they are as resistant as diamond and as strong as steel, we shall endure and erode their forces slowly!
The enemy is gaining ground bit by bit - the NPU has fallen, the Jamatun region is largely lost as is much of Southern Aymsland. Ocras and Veita are deprived of the minerals and factories in their interior.
We've gotten reports from the occupied regions - it appears the people living there are put to work supporting the enemy armies - gathering resources, assembling machines, providing supplies. We believe the Spirelords had access to massive underground factories from which they built these automaton armies, but it seems they are now beginning to move their production above-ground. There is resistance coming from our civilians and many have managed to escape to safety and have joined our armed forces.
We are now four months into the war. Skirmishes and small battles continue - thankfully, we've managed to secure the areas around Victory and Babaduad and the Corelands of Aymsland are safe for now.
Propose a war strategy.
>>47595226
Continue to play a defensive war, however if we see any opening at all, we shall do a Pincer movement.
ALSO, is there ANY chance at all to send in spies among the civilians to locate the spirelords?
>>47595244
this also whats the status of our reverse engineering efforts
>>47595244
How are going to keep a defending war, if they building more of the machines.
We need to destroy the factories have massive counter attacking. While having our guys make used of the tech.
If we delay the counter attack each day they grow stronger. So let's attack while we develop tech.
>>47595302
this
>>47595244
We can certainly make such attemps, but the enemy's top leaders are four men and women - the Spirelords - from the previous Age, from which the God-Emperor hails as well. They are the ones who give the orders from the top and they hold the key, but it is unlikely that one would find them walking the streets of Paitras.
>>47595271
We're making improvements across all fields in months which we'd have needed years to make - our first modern body armor, more reliable automatic rifles, anti-tank weaponry, computers.
The Victory City institute for Nuclear Research has also conducted its first atom bomb tests successfuly at a smaller scale.
>>47595226
Mass produce cyanid pills. Surely our people will know what to do if they fall to the spirelords.
>>47595302
Actually not a bad idea, however I feel that we should have gradual pushes back rather than fierce counter attacks.
>>47595313
I agree with that, however any information on the enemy we can get our hands on is good, so we should conduct spy efforts.
>>47595318
That's such a bad idea. If we retake it we'll find empty cities.
>>47595354
yeah but just imagine the mass suicide they could organize if we did that
>>47595333
I feel that if we allow the factories to keep working the more machines we face. Which mean more death in the longrun. We could send some armies to attack the factories, and sens spys as well to try and steal the tech.
>>47595318
no just no
>>47595385
We don't need mass suicides
>>47595395
Well then drop leaflets telling them to rebel instead of doing suicide.
>>47595395
use infiltrators to bomb the factories while stealing schematics blueprints tactical and strategic plans for the enemy forces
>>47595420
>We don't need mass suicides
the sarcasm just flew right past your head.
but yeah
>Well then drop leaflets telling them to rebel instead of doing suicide.
that's a good idea, but it would be more useful to drop bombs on their robots instead.
We won't be sitting idle - we need to retake the lost territory
A.Gradual pushbacks across all fronts
B.Massive counter-offensives with all of our available resources
C.Mass forces to retake occupied territories one at a time - Set the Mikson area as our current top objective, it's the center of the enemy forces in Aymsland
>>47595398
>>47595354
It's as if you want the Spirelords to have a massive labor force and to deny our people from dying for the country.
>>47595460
Rather than having them kill themselves, drop leaflets encouraging to rebel.
>>47595455
A
>>47595455
>C.Mass forces to retake occupied territories one at a time - Set the Mikson area as our current top objective, it's the center of the enemy forces in Aymsland
They don't expect us to do one massive chain offensives.
>>47595455
A.
>>47595477
Fair enough
>>47595477
A is the worst because it mean they get time to prepare.
We can't outnumber, we can't fight better than them, therefore tactics more aligned with guerilla and surprise attack are better.
>>47595455
>C.
We need to push hard on them, we need to stop them before they get stronger.
>>47595455
C Now or Never
>>47595486
>>47595507
>>47595477
Why are you picking A? We need to overpower them.
>>47595455
>C.Mass forces to retake occupied territories one at a time - Set the Mikson area as our current top objective, it's the center of the enemy forces in Aymsland
>>47595455
Changing vote to C.
If this doesn't work, the blame is on you. I wash my hands.
>>47595553
It is best to advance with caution in almost any situation, ecspecially when the enemy has better weaponry.
>>47595553
that's what they've been doing to us we need to take small steps to compensate for our lower tech capabilites
>>47595608
or we should nuke the NPU to smitherin and take all the robots put out of commission from the EMP blast, and try to build our very own robot army later.
C it is.
As the man with most experience fighting against the automatons,the newly promoted General Malhus will be leading the 4th army, General Jugser is in charge of the 3rd and 5th and General Mi Zhen - the most accomplished chink officer in our army - willl be leading the 7th.
These four armies have been given our best equipment and all the armored support, artillery and air power we could spare - they have 500 000 fighting men with heavy artillery support, 1000 aircraft and 1200 tanks.
Estimates place the enemy's strength at around 70 000 armored infantry, 1500 vehicles, a couple dozen aircraft.
The largest military operation in our modern history is about to begin, gentlemen. The enemy has occupied Mikson and most of the lands around the Great Lake-Sea.

145vs50
The beginning phases of Operation Midwood have been successful - while the enemy is still superior pound for pound, they obviously weren't expecting us to pull out such progress in a short amount of time. Our latest generation of tanks, assault rifles, rocket launchers and our first jet fighter wings are giving an excellent account of themselves - we've regained the occupied territories outside of Mikson city. Now it gets tough - urban combat time!
Same rolls, go!

With a smaller combat width to deal with, the enemy is now inflicting heavy casualties upon us as we advance into the suburbs of Mikson. They've set up fortifications - anti-air towers are crippling our aerial support capabilities, but that won't stop us!
Again, same rolls and keep the music coming. That sweet Evangelion battle theme, hadn't heard it in a long time.

Not entirely sure, however time may be correlated. It may as well be like an equation
103vs155
Casualties are still heavy as we gain ground street by street. The fight for Mikson is entering its second week now, but our men haven't given up yet.
At Centerhold High Command, the President is approached by a joint commitee of generals and NAS leaders.
"Mister President, you've seen the reports on Mikson. Elements with us, we will get out of that meatgrinder as winners, but if not - we have another option now, if the situation calls for it..."
The battle continues - we've lost roughly 18% of our forces, while the enemy has lost about 27% of theirs.

There is no doubt in my mind we will win this war.
Sadly we won't all be there to see it, if this keeps up most of us won't even live to see the turning point...but it is coming and like a phoenix we will rise from the ashes stronger for our wounds.
After all, scarred flesh resists damage better.
60 vs 194
The enemy has recieved reinforcements both from their underground networks and from above - the enemy's air power has been increased with the arrival of more fighters and some manner of combat helicopters - or something akin to them - which some are referring to as aerial gunships.
Casualties are mounting as our men are tiring and losing morale, while the enemy seems to be able to recover from their losses - those automatons that are not completely destroyed are repaired within a few days at most and sent into battle once more.
Back at Centerhold, a briefcase has been delivered to President Torras Kalper, the Supreme Commander of the White Republic's Armed Forces.
Within it it contains files and documents on the now-completed superweapon the National Academy of Sciences has provided us with - a working nuclear bomb.
At present we've lost 33% of our forces, the enemy's losses are estimated to be roughly the same percentagewise.
The President is faced with a tough choice - will he order the deployment of the nuclear bomb on Mikson - destroying all enemy forces and any humans living in the city along with them?
A.Drop the A-Bomb
B.The battle will go on until we win
C.Order a withdraw, we've suffered enough losses.

53vs91
After a month of fighting, the Battle for Mikson is won, concluding Operation Midwood. The enemy's resistance in the final stages was heavy and for every automaton we destroyed, we lost at least two of our men in those last days.
We've pushed the enemy out of this region of Aymsland - those who weren't destroyed fled into the tunnels, whose exits were collapsed.
In total we lost almost half of our manpower and vehicles during this Operation, but it is a symbolic victory - yet this is one battle of many that still remain.
In the fifth month of 1196 AE, we've started retaking ground at last.
What shall our course of action for the next month or two be?
A.Keep up the initiative with focused attacks
B.Expand the offensives across all fronts
C.Slow down our offensives, use the time to strengthen our forces further
