World War III: Team Yankee – Red Dawn: The Invasion of America
(WW3-07)
With the war in Europe hitting a standstill, the Soviet Union has taken a bold decision to invade North America. Utilising their elite airborne forces, the VDV, they strike into the heart of America in a two pronged attack. First through the Canadian province of British Columbia and into Alberta and then from the Gulf of Mexico into Texas. Using elite BMD-1 and BMD-2 equipped Air Assault Battalions they make surgical strikes on key infrastructure and secure their route inland. Soviet tank forces have be reinforced with improved tanks like the T-72B and T-64BV, both utilising ERA armour to improve their protection. With them comes their staunch ally, Cuba. Though they have older equipment, the Cubans are well-trained and determined. Facing them are the US and Canadian home forces, as well as the various militia groups that have sprung up to fight against the invasion!
