Day 60: Russian Empire On The Verge Of Collapse
Desertfalcon
Russia was able to win a key battle in Connecticut however the U.S. continues to steamroll through Russian regions and now every Russian held region is under attack except for Connecticut. The Russian victory in Connecticut is significant because it will force the U.S. to retreat more regions from Colombia in order to be able to go on the offensive again. The U.S. could also employ the resistance war tactic however this would be difficult since most Americans would be unable to fight. The U.S. has an active resistance war going in Rhode Island and the battle hasn't changed much since it started 12 hours ago.
Colombia has taken control of both Texas and Missouri and is now attacking California. While this may seem disheartening it is worth noting that the only reason Colombia has been winning is that we have been retreating. Once Russia is taken care of Colombia won't stand much a chance since they only have a population of 2,000 and no active MPPs. After Colombia the U.S. will then just have to take their regions back from Hungary and get Portugal to pull out of Maryland to complete the total liberation. Hungary hasn't been able to do much due to constant blocking attacks from Canada. Hungary currently controls Washington, Montana, North Dakota, and Alaska.
We are still waiting for the Spanish to launch a resistance war in Andalucia which is currently controlled by Brazil. This is the last Spanish region under foreign control and if Spain can pull out a victory there they would be the first country of this war to achieve total liberation. The offensive in Canada has stalled but this is most likely due to the amount of support Canada has been giving to the U.S. to help block Hungary and Russia.

Good article as ever DF. Voted.
But I see 'total liberation' as fully restoring Canada's regions as well.
I thought Illinois was just as important as Connecticut?
eUSA eUSA
Hungary and Serbia have signed MPPs with Colombia: http://www.erepublik.com/en/country/military/Colombia" target="_blank">http://www.erepublik.com/en/country/mili[..]mbia
It doesn't matter that they signed MPP's. We have to go after Hungary's, Serbia's, or Colombia's homeland to activate them.
Amethyst....'active MPPs' meaning they aren't activated and won't be activated until an atack on native-Colombian territories
Great article! As always. ^.^
It's getting interesting. I just hope we don't lose the initiative!

And thank god for Canada!
@Bradley Reala: You said it! And I agree with an above poster, saying that the freedom of all of North America will mark our victory.
It's not over yet.
We lost Illinois, and that was high priority.
New Jersey will be a major test.
Don't lose hope, don't give up, but this war is not won yet.
I think you missed the point there DF.
Wasn't Illinois the key battle because it is high oil, it borders Colombia(which would enable them to take the regions from Colombia), and it is where the serious tanking took place.
Other than that great article.
haha they cannont win without us retreating. i guess we rushed into this whole 'getting america back' and it caused us to try to do too much too fast, and we had to pay for it with texas and missouri
Hi
Our position (colombian) in front of that war is not focused on a personal stance. We expect you to understand our policy of achievement of our goals by helping our allies according to what we previously agreeded with them. As a country of honor and dignity, we will afront any posible retaliation of your part as consecuense of any of our acts, wich of course, weren`t infunded by any kind of cause different to old pacts.

The headline is not correct, this time you are over-optimistic of the situation. The US had a fair share of luck of keeping the initiative three times when it has lost (in Alabama when a bug did not let the Portugese retreat, in Oklahoma, where the US was able to attack while an attack on it was being investigated, in California where the Indo president was banned. Russia has given up many regions for tactical reasons. It is not the number of regions held that are important at the moment but who has the initiative. The US was always facing the question what happens if Russia is down to one region and manages to defend it. This turn of tide has come a bit earlier with the help of Columbia.
Good article, but the title is kinda misleading.
Russian Empire ..good joke man.🙂Hungary , Indonesia are empires because they fought alone..Russia is just a puppet that lost his masters..😁

Spoke to soon, me thinks.
OOPS lol, now america is gonna get conquered by Russia 🙁
OBE in a major way ...
They won New Jersey.
Now they're on the offensive.
Americans, dig your foxholes.
Stand firm brothers! Russia has regained initiative but we will not falter! Let us show them what our combined might can do! We brought the wall down to -1million we can defend all of our regions and finish the offensive!
They wouldn't of been on the initiative for long if we would of started another battle before the new jersey war was over.
Complete and total disaster. Whomever is in charge of U.S. Strategy should be fired,impeached or just commit sepaku and save us the time.
Dam they Kept NJ 🙁
Good! Viva La Espana! 🙂

Operation Defend America😁😁😁
vote my article, to honor this day, 9/11
You know what I think it stupid? The fact that Russia is not whole, it still has it's homeland occupied, and yet it went on a war path. What morons run that country? If they had any intelligence, they would have taken back their own lands to be whole again, but what do I know, right?
