U sing the annual USSR War Games (Pacific Training Event), the largest annual military training exercise, mobilizing nearly all major divisions of the Red Army, the USSR launched a massive amphibious assault on the West Coast of the United States and Canada. This attack completely surprised the United States military and citizens. The Soviet invasion easily overcame any opposition because coordination between states, local authorities, and military units was nonexistent. It is estimated the U.S. forces killed ten thousand Soviet troops a day. But the Soviets would deploy thirty thousand troops a day. This lasted for nearly 4 months. During this time, the Red Army was able to capture Washington D.C, seizing President Shrapnel and the Commander of the U.S. Forces, General George Carville. After the fall of Washington D.C., the Europeans entered the war by using Einstein's experimental Chronosphere device to rescue the U.S. command from Washington. General Carville did not survive the relocation. The U.S. armed forces used another Einstein invention, the Prism tank. The new light armor vehicle proved effective against the Soviet Infantry, especially since the fired beam would reflect off the target and cause secondary damage to nearby soldiers. However, the Prism tanks proved inadequate against the heavy Soviet Rhino tanks. After being moved to Canada, President Shrapnel contacted Korea, Germany, France, and Great Britain, and officially established the Allied Forces.

Shrapnel's Counterattack
P resident Shrapnel, along with the leaders and high ranking military officials of the Allied Forces, established their global headquarters in Ottawa, Ontario. This location was selected for its strategic importance: relative closeness to the Atlantic Ocean, East Coast of the US, and access to the Great Lakes and interior of the US. Plans to recapture lost territory in the US, re-establish Washington D.C., and expel the invading Soviets were immediately made and put into action. Using the Chicago offensive as a diversion, Brigadier General TacticalVirus, along with Troops from Great Britain and Naval forces from Germany and France, started the liberation of the East Coast, starting with New York. After 4 grueling months of fierce fighting, the Allied Forces were finally able to expel the Soviets from the US soil. Current estimates put Soviet casualties at 1.8 million soldiers and Allied Forces casualties at 1.5 million, with the majority of those being U.S. troops. Washington D.C. was reestablished as the Capital of the US; President Shrapnel relocated the government shortly after the city was retaken. After the British were able to expel the Soviets from Canada, President Shrapnel convened a Military conference in San Diego, California.

O ne topic of discussion, as reported by GCW Reporter Insanity Rocks: the Chronosphere. It was stated, in its current form the Chronosphere would not be used as a large-scale troop transport given about 20% of the moved objects would disappear and the fact it consumes large quantities of power, subsequently causing widespread black outs. Einstien, speaking via video conference, noted the power grid in Germany was still getting repaired due to his use of the Chronosphere to save the U.S. Command.

D uring his opening speech, President Shrapnel, realizing Premier Cheesy was intent on World Domination, was reported as saying, "It's time for payback!" Large military convoys were reported as arriving in the San Diego area, adding hundreds of thousands of troops and vehicles to an already sizable military presence. In an 'Off the Record' comment, a high ranking Korean officer noted plans were in motion to send the combined forces West, to Asia.
