Advent Offensive

BuggUla has decided to have a special holiday lights display in Schulmania. No, this one will not compete with the Griswolds…

Or even the Simpsons…

This holiday display will be all about fire power, not candlepower. Witness the monstrous exercise known as The Advent Offensive, brought to you by the Grinch. I mean, BuggUla.

So, what does BuggUla have in mind to do? Replace “Ho Ho Ho” with “Hee Hee Hee”. The spirit of the season will be one of despair as a massive new offensive gets underway.

Massings of armor and troops along several spots on the eastern front have been detected by Schulminion forces, but not in time to stop the assault.

It’s go time!

Massive simultaneous assaults push back the beleaguered Schulmania IV Corps

SNA IV Corps fell back while awaiting reinforcements from Wirdleonia and East Atkinos. The 7th Division was outflanked and decimated; the 56th Division narrowly averted the same fate.

Queensferry forces bombarded the retreating Schulminion forces and rapidly advanced on several central Devonshire towns.

The small towns quickly fell and the path to the agricultural interior was opened to the enemy forces. The piedmont in central Devonshire is largely given to agriculture, providing a goodly amount of the nation’s catnip supply. As defensive trenches were breached, these farms became the primary target for the assaults.

By the time reinforcements arrived and the situation stabilized, the bold attack had resulted in a stunning victory for the enemy. A defensive line was established along the Devonian ridgeline and the front was significantly lengthened by inroads into East Atkinos.

As the towns burned, the last vestige of feline control over East Devonshire disappeared. And, with a significant thrust to the southwest, the enemy could split Schulmania’s eastern forces.

Surveying the map and the significant losses, General Neyland slammed his paw on the desk in anger. The losses have to stop. 2011 might end in ignominy, but 2012 will be the year to end the war with victory. With steely resolve, he strapped on his helmet and headed back onto the field, ready for battle.

It kinda reminds me of my history class, when Washington crossed the Delaware on Christmas, and with suprise, was able to capture/deafeat a ton of Hessians. Excellent and Strategic update

I wonder if we're seeing a situation similar to Hitler's incursion into Soviet Russia develop. Will BuggUla's troops stretch themselves too thin? How will they stand up to a native population full of steely resolve and a fervent desire for victory and independence?

I wonder if an incursion into Queensland would help swing the tide in Schulminion favor. Gen. Sherman's March to the Sea during the Civil War was a huge factor in Union victory. The same argument could be made for Gen. Patton's rush to take the fight into the heart of Germany during WWII. If Schulminion troops could manage a swift and destructive strike, it would seriously demoralize the enemy. Bring the Raid!

Seems as is all is lost for Schulmania.

@NMUSpidey: As you said, they could invade Queensferry. Another example of that is the end of the Punic Wars when Rome invaded Carthage.

In fact, this seems like the last choice for Schulmania.

[b][color=blue]Esclinavia[/color][/b] Except of course this is victory for the wrong side…



[b][color=blue]NMUSpidey[/color][/b] I see some parallels. But the problem is that the Buggs have a vastly larger army and a technological advantage which seems to come back to haunt us at every turn…



[b][color=blue]Simbourgeois[/color][/b] We like peace but Queensferry has other plans. But, I hope you have a wonderful holiday.



[b][color=blue]Emperordaniel[/color][/b] It is a travesty. And they WILL PAY!



[b][color=blue]9988[/color][/b] Let’s defeat those Buggs and make 2012 the “2012” for Queensferry!



[b][color=blue]Retep Molinari[/color][/b] I’ll say!



[b][color=blue]Ggagmus[/color][/b] The problem with invading Queensferry is their crushing blockade and naval superiority. Plus their numerical and technological advantages make success highly unlikely.



[b][color=blue]Schulmanator[/color][/b] Now, that’s more cheerful!
