Through turmoil and suffering, a small group of American troops,  privates Jason Emory and Chris Green escape the destructive forces of the Germans and the Japanes. Using their patriotism and wits, Emory and Green have no choice but to make life or death decisions on a day to day bases. The odds of survival wear thinner as the echoes of democracy disipate and the arms rise for a war to take their country back. With just the guns in their hands and the clothes on their backs, can these two recruits take on the enemies that surround them?All Rights Reserved

GATE: Awakening The Sleeping Giant (DISCONTINUED) by stevenwn1

A mysterious, ancient-looking gate appeared in Washington, D.C., sometime in the 21st century. From the gate poured out monsters, knights from medieval Europe, and other fantasy-like beings, and they began a systematic slaughter of the citizens of the U.S. capital, laying siege to the White House. For the first time since the War of 1812, the streets of the United States became a battlefield. Due to their unrestrained arrogance, the Empire of Sadera immediately sought to claim the lands on the other side of the gate. However, they would soon realize just how inferior their own military truly was. Once the U.S. military mobilized, they attacked the invaders with their advanced technology, forcing only a thousand of them to retreat while killing or capturing the rest. This unprovoked attack on U.S. soil, not seen since September 11th, 2001, would be known as the "Washington Incident." In retaliation, the U.S. government sends the United States Marine Corps to the alternate world beyond the gate, thus beginning the American-Saderan War. We will follow certain groups of people from both the nations of Earth and the kingdoms of Falmart to set the stage for the bloodiest conflict Falmart has ever seen.

Oblivion - Kingdom Come by WillThomas97

In the aftermath of a devastating Third World War that has left civilization on the brink of collapse, the remnants of the world's nations have reformed into new power blocs in a desperate bid to control the dwindling resources that are key to their survival. From the ashes of the old world order rise the Siberian Dawn Collective, the United African Association, the United North America, the United South American Pact, the coalition of European nations and the Korean-Japanese Empire. In a radical decision to determine control over the planet's scarce resources, these emerging powers agree to a high-stakes battle royale, a brutal contest where only the strongest nation will secure the means for its people's survival. Enter Ethan, Sinn, Bruce, Ahmik, Carly, Riley, and others-a diverse group of individuals from different backgrounds and nations, each with their own unique abilities and virtues. They find themselves thrust together in the midst of this global conflict, not just as representatives of their countries, but as reluctant warriors battling for their own survival and the future of their people. As the story unfolds, we journey with this band of unlikely heroes through trials of redemption, episodes of profound pain, and moments of enlightenment. Their experiences offer a window into the complexities and nuances of a world torn asunder, where moral certainties are blurred and the fight for survival often comes at great personal cost. Through their eyes, we explore the depths of human resilience and the bonds that form in the face of adversity. Their struggles are a microcosm of the larger battle raging across the globe-a battle not only for control of physical resources but for the soul of humanity itself.

A Sequel of Red Sun Rising. World War III continues.

Such grand orchestra is the place for the experienced tanker Arima Kousei and his wife, infantry leader Arima Kaori, their loved ones, and their friends; Watari, Tsubaki, Emi, Takeshi, and many more. Not everyone will survive. Cautions: Violence, War, Politically Sensitive (including references to racism)

Tomorrow We'll See Morning by Number1Cheese

In the midst of WWII, two enemy soldiers struggle to survive. ------ Struggling to support his dementia-stricken mother and neglectful father, French-American Maurice Burdett is drafted into WWII and shipped out to a cold, isolated landmass called Attu island to take it back from the invading Imperial Japanese forces. After being left for dead in the heat of battle, Maurice forms a risky alliance with a person who could very well destroy them both: a conflicted enemy soldier, Isamu Maruyama. Laden down with stoic expectations and struggling to uphold his father's image, Isamu is deployed to Attu to invade the island as part of the war effort, ready to lay down his life- until, in a moment of panic, he deserts his comrades before their final stand. Stranded with no options left, he forms a tense alliance with Maurice in order to get back home. ------ (Marked mature for graphic imagery and strong language)

The Debt Collectors War by TessMackenzie

Ellie is a soldier in a world without governments. A generation ago, a series of financial crises caused most of the world’s governments to collapse, and left many of the people in those countries in terrible personal debt. Since then, the worst debtor nations have been under military occupation by the troops of the debt recovery corporations, and the worst debtor of all is Měi-guó, the old United States. Ellie is serving in the Afghan Police Action when she receives bad news from home. She is told the daughter she hasn’t seen in years is dead. She flies home from war, upset, to do what needs to be done, but once there she finds out all is not as it seems. Ellie’s daughter is alive and unhurt. She is being held by of one of the many debt-recovery corporations. Held, for leverage, to make Ellie do the corporation a favour. Ellie’s daughter will be returned unharmed if Ellie does as they wish. The son of a company director is lost somewhere in the wilderness of post-debt-restructuring America, and hasn't been seen for three days. The company wants Ellie to go and find the kid, and Ellie doesn't know if she can. The one rule she's stuck to all her working life is to never to go to America, but now she might have to. She will have to, if she wants to save the daughter she hasn't seen in years. This is fairly dark and gritty near-future dystopian SF. ----- Debt Collectors War is now on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QZG1RHI/ Also on iTunes and B&N and other places. Just if that's easier to read that way! But please don't feel obliged or anything, and thank you for looking -----

Commander-in-Chief Swap by kagenishi2

The premise this time is World War II with the positions of Douglas MacArthur and Dwight Eisenhower swapped. There are no other changes. A flashy, gung-ho, European front and a sober, solid, lean Pacific front will develop. So this time, the main perspective is on the American side. Japan and Germany are getting their asses kicked. Or, rather, woe betide anyone that isn't named Douglas MacArthur. If you are a fan of the Axis forces, then prepare to get depressed, I guess, but anyway, this is fiction. RELEASE: 2020 (COMPLETED)
