Rising Sun

Summer 1941:
The British Isles have been invaded!

Germany's conquest of Europe now extends onto British soil. The situation is dire. The
British Army is still reeling from its defeat on the continent, the RAF is facing a Luftwaffe
that is many times larger and only the Royal Navy is in any shape to meet the enemy.
Despite all of this, Churchill is determined to fight on, no matter the cost. In Berlin, Albert
Speer has created a monster. The German war machine he's built up is now reaching a
new peak and showing no signs of slowing down. Spain has attacked Gibraltar and in a
stunning power play, SS Chief Heinrich Himmler has supported a coup d'état that has
replaced the Vichy regime with an ultra-militant government, whose loyalties to him are
unquestionable.

The Japanese ready themselves for war.

As the war in Europe continues, the Japanese Empire is preparing for a new conflict of
its own, despite opposition from the Imperial Navy. Following a disastrous war with
Finland, Stalin begins another purge of Red Army leadership. With the Russians in
disarray, the Axis Powers see an opportunity that will make their ultimate victory certain.
With the world descending into chaos, FDR sets a course for America that prepares it
for what he sees as an inevitable war. But who with? Will Japan strike first? Will the
German Reich be victorious over Britain, eliminating the last bastion of hope in Europe?
