The Habsburg Bid for Mastery

Description:
"Henceforth, like the doubleheaded black eagle in the imperial coat of arms, the Habsburgs had two heads at Vienna and Madrid, looking east and west."
-Mamatey

The year is 1526. Suleiman's Ottoman armies have slain the Hungarian king at Mohacs, silencing the last claim against Habsburg possessions in Central Europe. Charles V has been both Holy Roman Emperor and king of Spain since 1519, the culmination of centuries of shrewd marriages and politics. But he has also inherited his family's enemies: the Valois kings of France, who covet the rich cities of Italy; the Turks, who will not stop in Hungary; and the English Tudors, always anxious to curb the power of continental rivals. And underlying these struggles, a religious debate started by a guilt-wracked monk will prove the most perilous threat of all. Already German princes have formed ranks on the intellectual battleground, and the Netherlands, prosperous Habsburg clients, welcome Protestant ideas with open arms. The stigma of excommunication means little to those who have renounced papal authority; but perhaps Castilian arms and the riches of the New World can tip the balance . . . .

Description:
The conspiracy around the CSM has secretly prepared the invasion of an unknown alien race. The Aliens would in turn make them their liaisons to Earth's population. Therefore they would be granted an amount of power, no government on Earth would give them.
- NATO can negotiate with the Aliens
I did this to represent the unpredictable decision of high ranking officials and governments affiliated with the Hidden (the club around the CSM).

    Description:
    In 1895, the second Cuban revolution began, lead by a Cuban named Jose Marti. Having rallied support in New York, his rebellion became quite powerful. It was largely in the eastern Oriente province, but quickly spread as Jose Marti's troops began a quite successful guerilla campaign. Three years later, America began a very short war with Spain, which resulted in America's territorial aquesition of Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines, stretching the American empire from the western antilles to south eastern Asia. Also, for the next 50 or so years, the United States had huge influence in Cuba. As Spain, can you maintain your remaining colonies as both the "ever faithful isle" and the Philippines rebel and keep off the Americans too (with a little help from the Germans)? As the Cuban Patriots, can you take back l'Isle de Cuba from the Spanish after 400 years of occupation with American help, but maintain an independant nation in the face of America's rising imperialist policies? The war that began the "American Century" is in your hands...

    Description:
    Welcome to the great land of Middle Georgia! Look closley through the deep woods and swamps and you may catch a glimpse of the backwoods town of Hawkinsville, Georgia. Though not much in big city terms (or even in small town terms according to some of the townspeople), Hawkinsville in the long run has what it takes to satisfy the majority of its rural citizens and the farmers who drop by from their homes out in the sticks. Sitting on the edge of the great Ocmulgee River, Hawkinsville peacefully carries on with its day to day duties of serving the community. But all is not well with this haven of rural life. For across the depths of the Ocmulgee and to the Northeast lies the sister town of Cochran. Much like the Hatfields and the McCoys, these neighboring cities have forever been greatest of rivals. From economy to tourism to football, Hawkinsville and Cochran have battled it out to see who would come out on top. And now for the first time, Cochran's hatred for the "river rats" of Hawkinsville has caused them to resort to violence...

    Japanese Story:
    The Sun is Rising on the Japanese Empire, as it seeks domination in it's new era of expansion. The foolish United States has chosen to get in the mighty samuri's way, by cutting off war supplies. Japan plans to take then, what it cannot have. And as such, has launched a detachment of ships to deal with the weak, and pathetic U.S. Navy.
    American Story:
    The United States can no longer tolerate these petty demands of the Empire of Japan. As such, it has placed a large contingent of naval force in Pearl Harbor to ward off the would-be conquerors. It is expected that the Japanese will take this threat seriously and back-down. However, Japan's main naval forces have yet to have been spotted.
    Each country's fate lies in your hands; Don't mess up, the world's counting on YOU.

    Description:
    It is 270 BC. It has been a bit more than 50 years since Alexander the Great conquered a large part of the civilized world, an empire between the Danube and the Indus. Alexander`s sudden death has brought his diadochs (generals) into conflict, and it has been divided into 4 major empires:
    The Antigonide empire in europe
    The Seleucide empire in Asia
    The Ptolemaic empire in Africa
    and the empire of Pergamum near the coast of Asia Minor.
    The empires began to fight for the Hellenistic world which Alexander has founded. The winner of this fight was the Seleucid empire, which captured most of the basic Persian empire, including northern Phoenecia, southern Asia Minor and Persia. For a time it included Bactria, but a short time ago, it declared its independence. The Seleucids have allied themselves with the Antigonide empire to fight against the independent Greeks who include the Greek colonies on the coast of the black sea, the Greek motherland and all other colonies on Italy and the mediterranean. The mighty Indian king Asoka has quickly freed the Indus valley from the greeks. The greek world is living their own life, unimpressed by their neighbours, the Romans and the Carthaginians who are fighting each other in the western Mediterranian, and the Celts, who try barely to invade the land south of the Danube. You have time untill 95 BC, when the Romans begin to invade western Greece.
    The Seleucids are protagonists, and they will try to conquer the other Greeks, with help of their Allies, the Antigonides.
    The Indians, the Bactrians and the Pergamumians where not designed for play, although the Pergamumians have a relatively big military. I reccomend either the Antigonides, The Seleucids, the Ptolemaics and the independent Greeks.

    Description:
    The Russian homeland, mightiest of all the human nations, had grown immense; so immense, in fact, that there was hardly a stretch of land left to claim. As the population continued to swell, many people began to look across the seas for new land to settle. Taking what little they had with them, one such group of explorers set off across the ocean, landing many months later on the shore of a small island. They unpacked, and erected a new village for themselves, exited about the prospect of spreading the glory of their homeland...

    Meanwhile, not a few miles from the island, six tiny city-states were locked in perpetual conflict, bickering over petty little land disputes. Treaties were signe and broken, leaders rose and fell, and people lived and died, knowing nothing but war and bloodshed for decades. This continual warfare had all but halted scientific, as scholars and farmers alike were drafted into the puny armies, to fight over this hill, and this stretch of river. They did not notice when the Russian settlers landed on one of the islands just off shore, but soon enough, they will have to fight for a lot more than one or two worthless hills...

    Homèros-Ilias A 1-3

    Minos is dead, Crete's power has almost vanished, and all other formerly suppressed powers on the continent are expanding, making war. Big city after big city falls, but there will be only one survivor. The Mycenians in real "won", leading Greece into a second great time of only some 200 years, followed by the Dark Ages. Only you can save Greece from this cultural disaster, by leading one great power. Conquer Crete, Troy, Athens, Mycene, and the world lies beneath your feet, and there will once again be a hegemony in Greece, YOUR Hegemony...
    Every power in this scenario is well playable, but either Trojans, Mycenians or Cretans is advised. Default difficulty level is King. No negotiation is allowed between Cretan powers and Mycenian or Trojan powers. Tech rate is 15/10.

It is not recomandable to fight on both fronts - the western and the eastern - so it would be wise to finish first in the west and then turn towards east.
    As the Allies discover Nuclear Fission and start building Manhattan Project. Then beginn with discovering of Armor Design. Try to prevent the German invasion in England. You will have to hold them in France as long as possible. It would not be bad if You would close an alliance with the Russians and force The Germans to fight on two fronts.
