The US alone could just glass literally every other country on earth and not have to worry about guerillas. They're only a bother if you're trying to occupy a state. Simply do flyby bombing of anything that looks like civilization, and annex small swathes of territory for extra resources if needed.

Sure America, Russia, and China have nukes. America has no many nukes that it has a hundred or so shared out to other NATO countries, which in this scenario, are now the enemy in possession of nukes. Britain, France, North Korea, India, and Pakistan also have their own nukes on top.

The Blue territories have about 3000 nukes, sure. You can glass a lot of area with that. Maybe even send redundant nukes to a few places that deserve it like Mecca. But the Green territories have about 1000 and a lot fewer targets to spread them between.

In short, everyone nukes everything that matters, then all that remains are the pygmies and abbos who weren't worth even two ICBMs out of 3000.

Green victory.

As a former brass collared member of the U.S. Army, I can confidently say that the enemy can have all the technology and manpower and resources their hearts desire. It's the use and skill of commanding officers and the training soldiers that determines the outcome of the battle/war.

India has over 500 million able bodied citizens. Europe has roughly 800 million able bodied citizens (excluding Russia). Africa has roughly 600 million able bodied citizens. You combine these numbers with the other few-hundred million people in the world (besides blue) and you have a very formidable foe.

An then, add in technology these green countries can provide. The U.S. may have kickass toys, but every form of technology has a flaw and can be worked around.

And then add in all the resources and economic power these green countries have. Africa, Europe, and South America are your primary resource providers. The middle east and west Europe are you primary money providers.

I'm gonna go with green. But to be honest, this is /pol/ and none of your faggots' shit ever comes to light.

Green would win and it's basic common sense that tells you that. Wars are fought over years not weaks. The manpower from the green that could be amassed through a draft would be insane and let's not even talk about the industrial output that would be available. The Economies of Blue would break down and they could never rival the industrial output and manpower numbers that could be fielded. But this hypothetical war is dumb since it would end in a Nuclear winter.

bro, it was during the time when your Navy was the best, before the era of the American Navy. If America will cease to be your friend , I'm afraid you have no chance

in General, there are American air force and Navy, Russian air defense and ground forces. 2 the military-industrial complex + we have the Chinese human resources and their industry , including their military industrial complex. All of this versus more or less able to fight Britain and the Arabs, which equips the us. But how long the entire Arab world will last at least against Russia without American support? right, not long. Europe I do not take into account that it is already occupied by the Americans.
Remains India , which will be engaged by China, and Israel , surrounded by the armed forces of the USA and Russia.

These threads are always retarded because it becomes a matter of muh nukes rather than any cohesive logic about why someone would win

also green would win because the blues would nuke the greens who had nuclear weapons immediately who would also retaliate by nuking back, so in the end all countries with nukes have been turned to glass and there's more green countries that don't have nukes the end

Is blue holding themselves to the US standards of war and nation-building stupidity or the Chinese standards of war?

That's only because they are fighting the fake state we call Iraq, the central Iraqi government is shia they don't give a fuck about the Sunni and Kurdish regions of Iraq, that's why the Iraqi army is acting so cowardly, also the reason ISIS has made gains in Syria because of the current weakness of Assad's regime.

The problem with this scenario is movement. The US, China, and Russia have the world's largest, most advanced navies, the world's largest, most advanced air forces, and overall the world's largest, most advanced militaries. They're literally the top three nations in the world in just about every category. Day one of the war, Green would have absolute air and sea superiority. That matters because Green's only hope is moving around resources.

The US has the advantage of being geographically large, flanked by oceans to the East and West, a militarily weak country to the North facing rough terrain along most of the border, and a series of militarily weak countries to the South facing a choke point in central America. Invading the US mainland would require resources getting into South America and Canada. South America faces the problem of Panama: what happens when the US focuses on bombarding anything that moves through Panama? How would Green stop that? Canada is a problem because Chinese and Russian subs could make the journey from Europe costly and the weather could make movement expensive and vulnerable.

Russia has the advantage of being geographically huge and having a climate that makes invading it historically foolish. Europe isn't going to be eager to relive the mistakes of Napoleon and Hitler with an invasion, and Central Asia faces a similar problem. If Russia and China can make Mongolia and Kazakstan the focus of the battle, team Green begins to have a very serious problem with actually getting to anything worth fighting over.

China has a billion people and only one serious competitor in the region when it comes to manpower. The likelihood that Japan, the Koreas, and South East Asia wouldn't quickly fall is pretty low. More to the point, India would have to cross the Tibetan Plateau before they got to most of what China would really want to defend.

Combine all the armies in Europe and you will not get as much military hardware and persons as Russia can utilise.

Not to mention that modern european "armies" are fucking incompotent.

What is Netherlands going to contribue to stop Russian army ? What is Sweden ? Norway ? Hungary ? entire Eastern europe ? Half would support the Russians. Here on the balkans it would be the same.

Germany, France ? they don't even have enough people in the military to defender their entire countries.
Sweden couldn't even defend their capital city with the full "army" if it came to war.
spain ? italy ? portugal ?

UK could probably stand a little longer, because getting there is harder, but without US help, it would fall pretty quickly as well.

Modern European nations do not have armies, thats the main thing here, they have NATO, and if they lose US there as it would be in this map, they wouldn't stand a chance.

Yeah but a lot of your air force and such inside the green countries they won't be around for much longer if a war was to suddenly break out, in fact a lot of your combat proven soldiers are abroad in over sea bases they would probably be wiped out immediately considering where the majority of their bases are. A lot of your intelligence services are based abroad they would be gone pretty quick. You would struggle to finish them new ships of yours without those engines of ours after all you would have built the engines yourself if you could have.

The Green countries would be able to destroy and blue army.

However, could they invade them ? I really doubt it.

All of theses countries are fuckhuge and prepared for guerilla warfare. They have strange wheather and their people are made to endure.

I mean, imagine being a european soldier in America. You would have to go through all the fucking Texan tornadoes only to go against a bunch of rednecks armed to the teeth with automatic weapons.
Millions of lives would be lost.

Theres a pretty significant difference between Russia fighting a proxy war with a watchful Nato in the background and what we're talking about here. Might Europe be able to stop an outright Russian invasion? Probably. Could Europe ever hope to win an outright invasion of Russia? Not on it's own. A war between Russia and Europe ends in a stalemate.

In a case of total war, no one could challenge the USA.

In those 4 cases they were combating an insurgency/nation building.

If we were allowed to do war without strict ROE we could take the entire world np and that's without nukes.

How does Green kill those troops and destroy those planes, though? A war like this isn't likely to be a secret or a surprise, you're talking about years of build up, during which time all those resources get moved out of Green countries and production begins to ramp up in Blue countries.

Nuclear war = Whole world BTFO

Conventional war:

USA fucks up South American militaries along with Canada, but gets shat on by guerilla warfare. Vietnam all over again but on a bigger scale.

Russia tries to invade Europe and gets completely BTFO by the technologically, economically and numerically superior continent.

China zerg rushes Asia, takes heavy casualties from Korea and Taiwan but eventually shits on them, beats Japan but at this point the Peoples army is fucked up. India invades China and China gets BTFO.

With Russia and China gone it's a stalemate between Eurasia and Americas, except the Canadians and South Americans are guerilla warfaring the USA taliban style. USA eventually has to retreat to its own borders where a civil war errupts. USA government collapses.

Green win.

To be fair, once America takes Canada and gets access to more northern infrastructure, they can easily reinforce across the Arctic. The stalemate would only be very brief unless America rreeaallllyy needs to throw resources into the Pacific to back China.

That's where the shitshow is. America needs to resolve the West quickly in order to free Russia and turn both toward the Far East.

Pacifying Mexico and southward would require some pretty hefty war crimes. It could turn into a quagmire if done the traditional way.

If that's the case then that is an even worse scenario for Blue as Green as the time to make use of it's advantage of manpower and would build up an insane amount of industrial output. America's advantage in having the largest military in the world is right now not in a few years when the world has drafted and built up and insane military.

Of course you could take the world with you, anyone country with a nuke could because once you launch a few they all start flying due to the paranoia at least that is what I think, if not then of course the world would probably just end in nuclear fire anyway

January 20, 2017 --

President Obama has removed the US forces from Korea, Japan, the Mideast and Europe after it began to appear that Trump could win the election.

President Trump stands on the steps of the Capitol in Washington DC, points at Obama's departing helicopter and yells: "You're Fired!" to the cheering crowds's delight. "My fellow Americans!" Trump roars. "As we speak the War criminals Hillary Clinton is being placed under arrest!" It was the first time a president arrested the person he defeated in an election, but the media demanded it after the effectiveness of his negative campaign against her.


Obama, as Trump is being sworn in, flies secretly to Geneva.

Trump's first act as president is a conference video call with Presidents Putin and Xi. Trump's first words: "Hello my old friends. The time is now. Initiate the Trilateral Protocol." Upon hearing the words, Xi sighs audibly but says: "Yes sir."

Putin bursts out laughing and says, "Yes sir! I knew it!" He turns from the phone and cheerfully starts to shout orders in Russian.

When the call ends, US forces initiate the deacades old plan concocted by Henry Kissinger and Richard Nixon on their fateful trip to China in 1973. They have practiced and they are ready.

After one hour, Canada, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, North Korea, Cuba, and Turkey have been dominated.

President Obama huddles in a bunker in Geneva with the queen of England and George Soros, wondering, "Where are the bombs?" In the buker, the Council of the Internationale swears Obama in as the new Secetary General of the United Nations. The leaders of the European Union vote to merge their organization with the United Nations and declare a state of emergency worldwide.

President Trump announces that in one hour he will appear on television to explain to the world what is happening.

My thoughts, assuming no nukes because that's no fun;

>US has little problem taking Canada, faces some issues with Mexico but could probably strike an agreement with cartel leaders to fight for them.
>From there can take on South America with relative ease, and for the rest of the war is effectively secure in "Fortress Americas".

>Russia faces initial problems from Europe, but Europe has to deal with fighting American bases located inside of it, the fact that nearly all of its war plans and military infrastructure assume US aid, and the fact that the US would go on continual bombing runs via its aircraft carriers.
>Ultimately Russia succeeds with US aid, but it's pretty rough.

>China faces extensive difficulties, especially from the Japanese at first, but once again they have to deal with all of Europe's problems as well as an inexperienced army and dramatically smaller population.
>Both Koreas would probably have a hard enough time fighting the extensive US forces already stationed there.
>India would be a problem but for the Himalayas, and China indisputably has a better air force.
>Gridlock for a while, until the US and Russia can turn the better part of their attention towards China, then the countries mentioned above fall over pretty quickly.

The rest of the world would be relatively ineffective at fighting after Europe fell, and would probably role over due to civil strife and poor forces. Australia and New Zealand and really the only real exceptions here, but they'd be overwhelmed by sheer numbers once the Americas, Europe, and Japan were out of the way. The Middle East would keel over quickly enough, and from there the US and Russia could meet up, potentially even with China from the east, and take out India. I feel like I don't even have to comment on what happens to Africa, the poor bastards.

I'm not sure why you'd want to pacify Mexico and Southward. Instead, you'd just fuck up the infrastructure, fortify the Rio Grande, and stop anything trying to move through Panama. Theres no percentage to taking South America, it has nothing valuable to the war effort.

Most of the US resources would likely go towards taking Canada and then supporting Russia. China would end up like Russia did after WWII, an ally of convenience but one you want to have a pyrrhic victory.

How do you get those soldiers where they need to be, though? Thats the problem Green has. Moving soldiers around takes time, money, and infrastructure.

In the end? Everyone.
But who would wipe out the other first? Blue
Green has at most 908 nuclear weapons, both usable and not
Blue has 4630 nukes, and that's just the three nations combined strategic arsenal.
So blue would BTFO green, but with how much the enviorment would be fucked up, they wouldn't be able to enjoy their victory for a quite a while, as they won't be coming out of the bunkers for a long time.

Initial warfare:

USA moves into Canada. Much land taken, canadian military proves strong defender of local regions.
USA moves into Mexico. Much the same, Mexico is taken, albeit not the Cartel run regions; which are simply being carpet bombed.
Russia moves into the Balkans, Ukraine, and basically every surrounding country. Not much progress is made westwards.
China moves south to confront india, Thai region not worth much effort.
China moves northwards too and takes Mongolia and Khazakstan with Russia.
Russia avoids Finland, China avoids North Korea and Middle East.
Chinese navy initiates war with Japan and indonesian islands.
American navy patrols north+mesoamerican coasts to ensure effective takeover.
American navy also pushes Japan on eastern front.

European Navies cross atlantic and mess with Western US coast. Numerous naval facilities are damaged.
South American forces move north.
India launches attack on China and conquers vast amounts of rural China.

European nations boot up the war machines, Russia increases war machinery. African nations reach deal with European nations to arm up. South American nations gear up navies. Australia goes as mad as Australia goes. (a fucking spider). China gears up further. The US is already at high military capacity.

Second Phase:

China moves into North Korea.
North Korea, in a move of desperation uses nuclear weaponry, targetting Beijing, Beijing is struck from the north, not centrally, and is not crippled.
China in response fires Nuclear weapons on North Korea. South Korea surrenders, while Japanese nukes fire on China.
Russia, taking the hint, uses Nuclear weapons to advance on Eastern European countries. Western Europe is capable of defending itself reasonably (poor poland)
The US Nukes mesoamerica to prevent a land attack; and additionally nukes resistance regions in Canada and Mexico.
Israel nukes east to form a nuclear barricade to China's land assault, and also north to curb Russia's movement at Turkey

Green hardly has enough to make a dent

We'd take out a few cities and kill maybe 10 million people at a stretch.

This is the real question.

>USA
>Greatest ally
>Taking out the cause of all degeneracy in one fell swoop.

Could it be done?

The trio gets overwhelmed by the number of troops . Combined together they roughly have half of the arms needed to face the rest of the world .apart from nuclear submarines.

>thinking Nuclear weapons will literally destroy everything

They'll take out a mile radius or so at most and give anybody within 50 miles cancer. The earths a big place

>also green would win because the blues would nuke the greens who had nuclear weapons immediately who would also retaliate by nuking back, so in the end all countries with nukes have been turned to glass and there's more green countries that don't have nukes the end
What makes you think the non-nuke countries would be spared? If blue was facing imminent destruction you can bet your ass nukes will be launched at every target possible. Keep in mind there's enough nuclear stock to destroy the surface of earth many times over.

Depends how you classify a "win"
Getting 3 nations to surrender is harder then a few hundred, especially where places like here would go full guerrilla
