Shattered World : A Worse World War

Shattered World - Micro Segment 55.5.1 November 8th 1949 to November 12th 1949 November 8th 1949 New Axis offensive in Libya begins with a barrage of chemical ballistic missiles, intensive bombing, massive fighter engagements, and ground attacks up the coast towards Benghazi and northeast across the desert in the general direction of Tobruk. It is a desperate ploy by the Axis, a final effort to capitalize on British woes in Egypt before the Americans can put Army Group Africa into a vise by clamping down from the west.  November 9th 1949 With a morale boost from the Axis offensive underway in Libya, insurgent elements across Egypt step up their attacks on British troops and assets. The anti-British insurgency is no longer in a position to seize power(aside from a few isolated pockets), but it remains capable of giving the British a major headache. In addition to the violence of the insurgency itself, a general strike called by Islamists and nationalist unions continues to paraylize...

Just got the timeline segments back up, the timeline links should work again now. Transferred my old geocities stuff over to Yahoo small business hosting. Sorry this took so long.

So, as some of you must have noticed by now, some of the parts in the main timeline are inaccessible right now. This is because of the shutdown of geocities, which I had been using to store a lot of the old parts in. I still have all this content, just need to get it up on a new site.

This has probably been the longest gap in this timeline since I started it ten years ago. Just want to apologize to everyone and reassure anyone who is still out there that I AM still around and I Will get this thing going again. Been a combination of really bad writer's block and getting married that has caused this current loooong hiatus.(been just over a month now since I got married, things were very hectic there for awhile) Anyway, to anyone still reading this I'll try to reward your patience sometime soon.

Day 1 of Operation Orange Fire... Operation Orange Fire This is an interlude focused entirely on the Axis attack in Libya. Very much a work in progress and I'm open to critiques, ideas, etc. I'll be releasing each new day as I finish it. Then I'll post the entire thing as an interlude in the timeline once its completed.

A short segment, covering only a week. Hope you enjoy. Segment 55.4 (made some minor typo corrections. It was a Chilean sub that was sunk, not a Argentinian one. Also, B-34's dropped the atomic bomb not the B-36 ;)

Hi all, After a lot of thought I've decided to make a major change to Segment 55.3 I have removed the reference to the Germans using biological weapons against the British. Instead, their retaliatory attack is limited to the VX chemical attack. I decided that it just doesn't make sense for the Germans to escalate to bio at this point, especially given the unknowns involved.
