1914 - The Great War (as it was called at the time) begins. Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire start what later would be called "The Mechanized Atrocity" (cit. Ingrid Summers). The war will rage for eight years.
Several million spirits sings dead and mayhem.
1917 - Tired of the poor conditions faced on the front and the brutal killing, the French army stops fighting. This riot is exploited by the Germans and they push forward again almost unstoppable. The French army collapses, the French front breaks and the army rout. The 300 experimental British tanks (the mythical Mark I’s) were on the front, ready to be deployed. This takes the Germans by surprise and faced with this new weapon they weaver. The tanks face the pivotal German attack and are able to slow it down sufficiently to give time to the French army regroup and create a counter-attack. New trenches are made and the front is moved a little further into French territory.
France is cut open with trenches and men crawl and linger.
The Psychic Awakening - During these events a strange thing happens and it will change the face of war and technology forever. A German shell destroys the engine of a Mark I. To the crew’s dismay, the tank keeps on moving. As they try to grasp the reason for this, they stare astonished at the tank driver, seriously wounded but still driving the tank. Pure will keeps the engine working. A group of Stormtroopers attacks the tank and takes it. One of the crew members is able to escape. The German officer also understands that something is strange with this tank and reported it to his superiors. After some “interrogation” they understand that it was the personal energy of the driver that maintained the tank working. Heavy research is invested in this by the Germans. But not fast enough to be of any use before the armistice.
The Human Energy - The German military scientists soon learn that human energy can be tapped in some extreme conditions and be added to another machine with an electric component. A machine with a debit of one HP can be augmented by human energy to ten times this power. And other psychic avenues are possible to pursuit. Electricity technology is now open to new realities and internal combustion engines loose importance. The British read with interest the report made by the tank’s crew member who was able to escape, but little is done about it in the years after.
March to November, 1917 - The Russian Revolution, takes Russia out of the war. The Germans send Lenine to Russia and the Bolshevik revolution sends Russia into a civil war. The White Russians against the Bolshevik. Germany betrays the secret pact they made with Lenin and sides with the White Russians. The Allies aren’t keen about siding with the Bolshevik so they keeps themselves out of the conflict.
1918 - Major German attack. The front is broke and German forces advance again into French territory. But in Germany malcontent and famine are taking an heavy tool. Manifestations and civil unrest forces German officers to stop the advance. The Allies fight back and once again the front-lines become static.
And in the barracks, everybody dreams to forget and sings...
1922 - The war goes on with low activity until April 1922. The French and British aren’t able to create a major counter-strike and Germany is on the brink of economic breakdown. The Italians, under the sway of a new man, Benito Mussolini, changes sides and Italy becomes a Germany ally. Peace conversations start in February. Peace is declared. There is joy among people everywhere. France is thorn apart. A powerful Axis emerges.Germany takes the Austro-Hungarian Empire in a peaceful way. In October 1922 the Gross Deutschland is created. The British, having occupied Turkey during the war, bring it into their fold. The Axis is now composed by Germany and Italy.
1917-1925 - The Russian civil war ends. The Bolshevik win the war. The Red Army uses a new and strange weapon in the last year of war that decimates the White Army. The Floating Cruisers. No photo are taken and the stories are unbelieving. Great floating tanks dominate the battlefields.
1922 to 1928 - The years of peace. So ephemeral that some historians prefer to join both World Wars into just one: The Century War.
Dark Shadows are cast over Europe but nobody wants to see...
1927 - Adolf Hitler, supported and pushed up by a strange Bavarian Organization becomes the German Chancellor. His powerful speeches about German superiority and sacred right to dominate Europe, compel the British to rise their military presence in France.
1928 - In September, in a coward and unexpected way Germany initiates a surprise attack against France. The Century War has begun. New weapons are about to be revealed. Giant mechanized robots and strange psychic powers moves in the fields of battle.
France bleeds again. France bleeds again. France bleeds again...
1929 - The Panzerkampffußgaenger PzKF1, a gigantic mechanized robot, controlled just by two men rolls against the Allies. Luckily for the Allies, they had a unit of special troops defending that position and some of the PzKF1′s still had some development problems. They had to withdraw, leaving three Mecha behind. The British capture them and create their own Mecha.
1930 - Paris is lost. Almost all France is now no-man’s land. In the brink of a terrible defeat, the British unleashed their Walkers Mk I, a modified copy of the PzKF1′s. That stalls the Germans. Nations will deviate their resources and research into this new amazing technology breakthrough. Human energy and its capabilities willl force governments to hunt down their citizens who were capable of tapping into their energy.
1931 - Hitler and Stalin make a pact of no aggression. In dire need of resources and food, the Gross Deutschland attack and conquers Czechoslovakia in two weeks. Italy declares war to France. France is now a pocket in the South. Lion becomes the new French capital. The French Army attacks and defeats the Italians at Torino. The Italians have some kind of teleporters. But those that are captured reveal that only under the influence of some drug are they capable of teleporting. The Germans attack through the North and the French face them with "Les Zombies", units of undying men. The German fall back.
Where is Joan of Arc? Where is Joan of Arc some cry.
1932 - Germany attacks Poland from the west. From east the Red Army moves on. The Polish think that The Soviets will save them. They are wrong. In less then a month, Poland is thorn apart. Germany and Soviet Union are now neighboors.
1933 - Jews running away from German and Soviet controlled territories speak about unspeakable things. To unleash the power of some soldiers, thousands are put in strange machines where they die in terrible agony.
The world will never again be innocent.
1934 - German special units land in British Islands. Their orders are to wreak havoc until they die or are captured. The British are caught by surprise and in the first three days, these saboteurs destroy valuable material. But the British steel themselves and anew Prime Minister is appointed to lead the United Kingdom - Winston Churchill.
