This is basically a new thread (you might know me from the now discontinued halo x resonant evolution fanfic) about my new project, Cold Front.
Now, the pitcher.
COLD-FRONT.
Set in an alternate-universe world with a familiar geography, but alternate history, Cold Front is set on a super-earth planet called Erda, populated by Humans and Anthro mammals (Deer, Canines, Felines, Martens, Ferrets), which may co-exist peacefully at times.
Centuries of warfare have raged on Erda. Be it for power, resources, a feud between royalties, or independence. After the devastating Great Europan War against the Vostokian Reich between the 1940s and 1950s, a Cold-War emerges between two superpowers. The LFR (Luparan Federal Republic) and the UCSS (Union of Communist Sarmatian States).
Proxy wars and decades of political warfare and espionage follow for most of the 20th Century. By the dawn of the 21st Century and new millennium, crisis emerges that would plunge the world into another war. The remote arctic supervolcano of Saint Dennis Island erupts, causing a mass-famine across the Northern Hemisphere. The world struggles to survive, while the LFR and its ADTO allies of the west try to alleviate the situation.
The UCSS tests a nuclear weapon on the neighboring nation of Parthia, forcing international sanctions on the already-struggling communist economy. The leader of the UCSS also dies of a heart-attack, and is replaced with a much more extremist leader: Maxim Sokolov.
A surprise invasion of Vostokia and most of Europa occurs, starting the infamous Continental War of 2005.
