Iron Storm - DRT 1

DRT on a table.

"The Russo-German Tageschau - the DRT is a multi-functional enemy invention: intelligence, coding, communications, etc. Don't hesitate to use it on this mission. You could gather very useful information!" - Colonel Mitchell

The Deutsch-Russische Tagesschau (lit. German-Russian Daily News) It is used for viewing news on the front lines such as information on the recent technological advances and battle victories, or could be used as a radar to see if any enemy units are nearby. Most oftenly they are found in or next to tents.

There is a single reporter who gives interviews with Russo-Mongolian soldiers and officers, she spoke both Russian and German. However she was murdered by The Consortium in the Reichstag media room. The perpetrators can be killed in the blue screen room, their conversation is "I've always wanted to be an actor. Can the others see us at the moment? If you don't turn the camera on, it won't work."

Iron Storm - DRT Deutsch-Russische Tagesschau 1

Repercussions from the failed assault on Russo-Mongolian positions were not long in making themselves felt. This evening at closing time on the second techno-market, United States of Western Europe stocks were plunging. German Steel lost ten points. Western Firearms lost twenty three points. More details in our economic bulletin, coming right up…

Calm returns!

Iron Storm - DRT Deutsch-Russische Tagesschau 2

Calm has at last returned to the Anton-Denikin line, after the unsuccessful assault by Western forces on our positions. This evening, vodka and song are warming the spirits of our valiant soldiers, as they celebrate their heroic resistance and the crippling defeat of the enemy’s troops!

Anton-Denikin line 1

In the constant search to improve the safety of combatants, the Dragunov Company has recently put on the market a slow-fall flare gun that is just ideal for signaling to medical crews the position of a wounded client. It is also an excellent way for a soldier in a tight spot to call for rapid reinforcements. According to observers in the field, the United States of Western Europe have recently started using an identical system...

Anton-Denikin line 2

There are three of them, all brothers. Three big lads who’ve come all the way from Siberia to fight for the Great Khan, Baron Ugenberg.

Up at the Anton-Denikin line, in just a few weeks, they’ve become the nightmare of the Western troops.

Da! Ugenberg is great warrior! Strong and noble!

Great war chief! Honorable!

Da! For him we kill!

All men we kill just for him!

Anton-Denikin line 3

Captain, how do you explain the failure of repeated Western attacks along the Anton – Denikin line?

It’s all thanks to our new patented bunkers. Our men can now withstand a prolonged attack, as long as supply lines can get reinforcements and munitions through from bases like Wolfenburg.

It’s state-of-the-art technology, it’s Russian, and on the stock markets it’s sending all the indexes sky high. Thank you, Captain, for your thrilling comments… We’re back later for more encouraging news live from the frontline.

Wolfenburg

Spearhead of the Russo-Mongolian assaults, the USIII tank is an armour-clad monster that’s unstoppable! Commandant Hans Henkel belongs to the Deutschen Reichskorps. He helped to conceive this tank.

Here’s what he thinks...

The Ugenberg III has thicker plating than any other tank in service. Even at high velocity, a shell could never pierce its armour.

We have a technolo...

The market didn’t give a great welcome to the USIII tank when it first appeared, due to a major design fault: a simple anti-tank mine placed on its tracks could disable the tank.

Has this problem been fi…

There were in fact some fabrication problems with the very first models, but all the models in circulation today are 100% reliable! Our clients certainly agree: sales this month have risen by 125%! And we believe we’ll have doubled sales in three months from now. So investors have nothing more to fear, and the USIII tank is indeed the blue-chip stock of the year!

Thank you, Commandant.

Research complex 1

Western terrorists today attacked the Wolfenburg military research plant. To reassure all investors and shareholders, here are the first images of one of the terrorist’s arrest, proof that their plot has indeed failed!

Research complex 2

The armored trains are like rolling cities that can supply men and equipment under any conditions. And when attacked, each wagon can become a self-contained mini-fortress, ready for combat! Nurses, cooks, the lot, and they’re all highly-trained soldiers! As the commander of one of these steel monsters pointed out:

I wish a lot of luck to any idiot who tries to attack us! We have twenty or thirty different ways of stopping an intruder!

Tsar Ivan 1

The isolation case, the latest invention of the Metallbau manufacturing group, is a safety shield that allows sensitive material to be transported right to the heart of a battle. Its armor casing and its magnetic key protect in all circumstances. Its internal padding, too, means it can be handled without any risk...it is, in fact, shockproof. A must-have, already declared the best quarterly stock on the techno-market.

Tsar Ivan 2

...situated in the Reichstag in Berlin, the Amazonian covered garden is a ravishing treat for the eyes and the spirit. Baron Ugenberg loves to spend long hours there in solitary meditation, far from army headquarters and «strategic administration» councils, just mulling over his plans for future conquests!

Reichstag 1

A rumor no more; now an established fact: it was Western terrorists who this morning blew up the Military Research Center at Wolfenburg. To prevent a plunge of techno-stock since this news emerged, the second market has ordered all quotes to be suspended. Our leading specialists are already studying footage of the terrorists and will be informing and reassuring investors.

Reichstag 2

Even as I speak to you, commando units are attacking our headquarters and trying to invade this very studio. We have no news of Baron Ugenberg! We don’t really know who these...

Outro

A few minutes ago, a Western commando unit launched a suicide attack against our HQ.

Baron Nikolaï Aleksandrovitch Ugenberg, our Great Kahn, has just met a heroic death while victoriously repelling the assault at the head of his men.

A crisis cabinet has already been convened in Berlin to ensure the war effort’s continuity, and has ordered this communiqué to be read on this channel every ten minutes:

"The assassination of our leader must harden every heart, and reaffirm our conviction and our courage.

Our enemies must know that we shall never back down! We shall be victorious!”

The cabinet spokesperson took the opportunity to announce the forthcoming release on the market of a new heavy machine gun, created in the Dragunov workshops, whose high precision will satisfy even…
