West Alaxian War: Difference between revisions

Days later, on December 22nd, Thraxian forces conducted a suspected attempt to seize superior Ceironian equipment for use in the war, which would rapidly escalate into open warfare across Thrax. This fighting was supported by "Operation ZeusSpros", the largest cyber warfare attack in history. Within minutes across the WAUF, rail was disrupted, pipelines shut down, power grids overloaded, telecommunications jammed, satellites overheated, and digital banks hacked. While on paper the Thraxian airforce appeared even to the Ceironian aircraft deployed in the region, it was none the less beaten allowing Ceironian ground forces contested air support. With the exception of submarines, the Thraxian navy was quickly destroyed by far superior Ceironian forces. Vastly superior trained and equipped Ceironian ground forces managed to quickly overwhelm the far numerically superior Thraxian ground forces. Ceironian forces rapidly seized central Thrax, as the Thraxian Army (Thraxianische Heer) took massive casualties, losing over 112,000 men by the end of the month, though managing to hold onto the capital of New Dinsmark.

On September 7th, Ceironian and Jimarian forces would launch a joint "Operation PoseidonOkeanos" against remaining Thraxian holdouts. While the remains of the Thraxian airforce were able to put up an impressive resistance in the skies, ground forces would continue to be battered, Thrax taking over a hundred thousand further casualties to just a few thousand between Ceironia and Jimaria. Thraxian forces would be further pushed back toward their largest cities. Poseidon would be accompanied by a third assault on Makise, and while Ginsukyoan airforces were decimated, losing dozens of planes to only a single confirmed Jimarian loss, ground forces continued to hold out. Ginsukyo maintained slight ground numerical superiority, though were as unable to break out of the city and retake loss territory as Jimarians were unable to capture Makise.
