Okay, so what do you think will happen in the sequels? I believe that before we get like EndWar 2, we'll get expansions on what is happening in Endwar. Think the GTA games in how they are connected, for example.

EndWar: Pacific
At the start of 2020, before the war, the Russians and the Chinese broker a secret treaty that forms the Pacific Bloc, known also as the Asian Bloc. Soon, Vietnam and North Korea join. When war breaks out, they keep the United States from attacking by increasing their militaries vastly. Meanwhile, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea as well as the United States form the PCO, Pacific Combat Organization, to counter whispers of the Asian bloc. In other areas, India does not back down from China in a border dispute and two patrols exchange gunfire. Tensions are raised. As the war in Europe heats up, the Russians ask the Chinese to initiate war in the Pacific to draw away American forces. China, North Korea, and Vietnam launch a multi-tiered invasion. North Korea, with Chinese naval support and troop aid, attacks South Korea. Japan is invaded by China, as is Taiwan. Another portion of the Chinese army engages the Indian army as the Vietnamese and their own allies start rebellions around them that weaken India's flank.

Factions:
The Asian Bloc/Pacific Bloc- Very much similiar to Russia. Depending on what country you pick as your Battalion's origin, you will get different vehicles, upgrades, training, and equipment.

The PCO- Same as America in EndWar, but with the same differences as above.

India- Uses large numbers of infantry to stall the enemy while their well-equipped and trained air force pounds the enemy. The main difference from the Bloc is largely in Upgrades.
_______________________________________

EndWar: Middle East
America leaves Iraq, and while it is not peaceful, it is stable. Iran seems to be threatening it, but a surprise treaty with Pakistan renders the issue more of a Pakistan-Iran issue. They form the Middle East Coalition, an organization supposedly for relief of disaster victims and an income distrubition group. In reality, it is a military alliance that bands much of the region together. After Iran and Saudi Arabia engage in nuclear war and the European Federation is formed, MEC supporters pointed to the inability of the outside world to prevent horrific casualtiea as reason to band the region together in a single super state. This alarms both Israel and Iraq. A rebellion breaks out in Iraq, Turkish forces move in on Kurds in the north, and terrorist attacks in Israel increase. As tensions increase elsewhere, Russia gives billions in aid to help the MEC, and the European Federation, seeing Israel as the only bastion they can hope to sway to their side, share technology, equipment, and funds their potent military even more. America sends combat troops back into Iraq and Israel breaks a promise they made with the Euro. Fed. and launches a cross border strike against Syria. The alliance is off. American bombers strike Turkish bases after they were warned to leave Iraq. The war in Europe breaks out, and war in the Middle East happens alongside it.

Factions:
EF- Member state Turkey is hit and they fight back.
America/Iraq- Troops sent to protect American investments.
Israel- Potent, yet small, nation that's tactics will rely more on swift attacks and smart defense.
MEC- Islamopolitical super state that stretches from Cairo(Not seen in this game) to the nuke fields of Tehran. Capital in game is Mecca.
_______________________________________________

EndWar: Africa
When Cairo is selected as the MEC capital, civil unrest and rebellion rock much of northern and Eastern Africa. Soon, many countries pledge their lives to the MEC. This then causes the EF to support Israel, but even Israel can't stop African terrorists from detonating explosives and assassinating EF officials in Italy. With assurances and intelligence information from Cairo that these were not MEC forces, the EF got the green light to invade. They smashed initial opposition in December of 2019 and spend much of the lead up to the war pushing deeper and deeper into Africa until they had unknowingly become surrounded by MEC forces. At the same time, they had nearly reached Central Africa, where the African Union was holding out and regrouping after failing to save several cities that didn't wish to join the MEC. When the War broke out, the AU informed the EF that they were to exit Africa and leave it to the AU to eliminate the MEC. Sadly, as discussions were ongoing, the MEC launched hundreds of large scale raids and attacks that cut the EF off. Not knowing it was the MEC at first, they launched attacks at the AU. The EF started fighting it's way back to the coast against both the MEC and AU, who also fought each other. The AU had been funded since 2011 by the Americans, who saw it as a force capable of opposing the MEC's(Formed in 2010)influence in Africa. As such, the AU was quite capable of battle and even though it had lost it's battles so far it had caused many more MEC deaths than the MEC had caused them.

Factions:
EF- North, Northern Central Africa. Recently made it to the coast, now are able to hold ground and possibly defeat the MEC and AU.
MEC- Northwest, Northeast, Eastern Africa. Gets much support from MEC in the Origin Countries.
AU- Central, Southern Africa. Large military organization funded by the United States and battle-hardened.

Now the reason none of these should be EndWar 2 is because that should take place sometime after this war has concluded- and therefore these take place during EndWar's storyline.

i would love to see ubi come up with an excellent story to create sequel/expansion that will include the entire world in the game for battle maps

hahaha, the israelis! awesome!
they should definitely have a Merkava 5 by then..... hehehe

By talking about sequels before this game has come out, you just jinxed any chance of this game being good.

Thanks a lot.

Ya big sour puss.:P

Anywho, the reason the Middle Eastern part has four is because I really wanted to have Israel be separate.

Ooh, I'd love to see what a futuristic Israeli battalion would look like. I've always been a sucker for the Israeli approach to military hardware and weaponry.

too much united states they couldn't possibly fight all over the world and defend theyr own lands against russia and europe...

but i liked the idea of expantions to include the entire world..

anyway africa wont enter any WW, only north africa could stand a chance of defending itself from an invasion

middle east, well they would kill themselves or stick togheter and wait for europe/russia/usa to selfdestruct and then atack (seriously doubt about that, they would probably slaughter themselves, not very interesting..)

pacific war, yep that i really agree, and yes US would totally be included, but i think russia wouldnt be part of it...
maybe china, us and japan (dont underestimate this guys...they know all about tech..give them LASERS!! )

Doesn't what you said about the US also apply to Russia and Europe?
The EU, Russia, and the USA are engaged in three of the four games(My three ideas and then EndWar) and the 4th is a proxy war in which the three are aiding one of forces.

Africa makes sense because it is increasingly important in Middle Eastern matters, the US governent is already funding and aiding many militaries there in order to bolster their position, and northern Africa is close enough to Europe so if they are allied with a super state that is opposed to Europe that it would be used as an attacking point into Spain or terrorists attacks from across the sea. You are also forgetting about the African Union, which was a joke in the 90s but is slowly becoming a force to be reckoned with.

Also, I did have Japan in there as well as China. Russia is allied with China, they aren't on the battlefield. Japan is part of the PCO, China is part of the Asian Bloc.

naval engagements would be pretty awesome for a sequel or expansion. too bad the icbms would be useless..... lol. unless you could destroy the missile shield first.... and have an icbm as a superweapon. although i heard that most of the submarine based icbms are being fitted with high-explosive conventional warheads. oooh if you have naval engagements, the marines have to be in it..... haha. i can see it already, the navy's new "DDX" destroyers pounding the north korean coastline for a diversionary amphibious assault by US marines, while the army advances on the DMZ. 100s of the new EFVs racing to the coast.

applies to russia and europe, but i havent seen europe in any other of those factions...(russia was with china) so i didnt liked that
its pretty unlikely to be envolved against so many countries, and europe standing there alone...without joining or recruiting more countries into the cause..

The EU is in the Middle East and in Africa, so they are just as well represented as America is. Russia...they aren't in any of the sequels visa vi ground troops, but it's inferred as much for China, they are allied with the MEC as well. So, all three sides are well-represented.

This is a cool chat room.

bad interpretation from my side sorry, if thats the case, i totaly agree. this is the result when you come here to the foruns in a big hurry, but ur so addicted that u just can't stop!!

No problem.

Anywho, anyone else have any other ideas for what the sequels would be? Upgrades?

this isn't a chat room?

whats wrong with the ub3r 1337 t41k

hahaha typing like that is so weird.

some pretty great ideas for sequls there. I presonally would like to see naval combat implimented into the game, provided Endwar plays how i think it will and deserves a sequel.

Yeah, I'd like to see that as well. In the Pacific version, I could see all three sides having a strong naval presence.

I think the middle east and africa should take the form of proxy wars, two sides on backed by the U.S. and the other backed by russia/china. I don't know if they would make a game were the U.S. isn't a playable faction though. In the pacific, the navy would be vital> I think ships should be used as transports for amphibious assaults. I don't know if naval battles would work well in this game. Maybe in an expansion?

Both Russia and the US are fighting proxy wars: Russia is supporting the Asian Bloc and the MEC. The United States is aiding the African Union.

Okay, maybe I should say why all this is going on:

The main war is in Europe- so the EU/EF are focused on fighting on their home turf. Hence, their attacks into Africa took place prior to the main war breaking out. Turkey is an EU/EF member, so when they are hit in the Middle East, the Turkish Army(With much aid from the EU/EF) fights back. So, the EU/EF isn't fighting a proxy war because they can't afford to do so.

Russia is doing extremely well from what we see of the map in the preview. Now, the EU/EF has more people as does the United States, so in order for that much success to happen the USA and EU/EF have to be engaged in other areas. Hence why the MEC attacks Europe and drags them into Europe. So, Russia is only fighting on one front, the EU and the United States are on three.

However, what of the United States? How could Russia fare so well against a larger nation with a more advanced military? Well, in all honesty, if China declared war on the United States, that is where I would be focused. So Russia tells the Asian Bloc to start a larger war in the Pacific that draws the majority of the American military. Then, due to Russia closing her oil off from her enemies, the Middle East with what's left of her oil reserves becomes a strategic interest of the highest priority. So, the United States would really be interested there.

So, by seeing the overall global picture, we understand that the Europeans are only defending themselves, but have been hit from multiple angles. For the United States, war in Europe is actually their third priority behind the powerhouse that is China and the oil reserves in the Middle East.
