In their quest for world domination, the US sets their sights on Russia and sets off across the Pacific, preparing to hurl all their assets (but no nukes) at the Russians.
What happens?
Russia defeats the invaders, and forces terms upon the US
US defeats Russia and creates the overseas State of New-Russia
Stalemate

Gah... Not this again... First the China thread, now the Russia thread? D.B., you warmongering little...![]()
And no. They can't. As history has told us, again and again, invading Russia is suicide.
History didnt have advanced ways of travel that makes the vast russia so big no more.
Russia have allways been a crap at war but as defenders they are pr0. Since they just burn down everything in the invaders path in which creates alot of logistics problems. But with todays advanced technologies that tactic wont work.
Also have a look at history when russia sends their weapons to factions that are enemies with factions that america gives weapons too. Having american weaponry over russian is clearly an advantage.
The only real thing that would make the americans loose would be all the hippies who would whine about that war is wrong and blabla bla.
Is there anyone more wise then me?
Why is the US doing all the invading, why can't Russia invade the US?

Americans are better equipped for the weather than the Germans and the French, so there.
My personal opinion would be that the Americans would fail in invading Russia. They're not adapted in many ways:
- The unbearable temperatures that are reached in Russia. America would not be allowed to invade from the east (via Europe) so they'd have to do it by the west or north. Doing this will mean an invasion on the bitter Siberian region; the coldest in Russia. Temperatures can reached -45 celsius!
- Some Americans believe that war is like Call of Duty. No lie - it's true. They tend to have a very ficticious mind and are easily carried away by propoganda (i.e. Communist are bad. Fact - they are not. It's American propoganda which has made them believe this because they don't want to lose their 'freeland'). If the government said: jump, Americans tend to jump.
- Russia is a country that is feared by many. Since the First World War, many countries, especially America, have always been slightly feared by the mighty Russia Federation, and one Soviet Union. With a patriotic nation like no other, the Russian people would sacrafice theirselves rather then there land (e.g. World War 2. 20 Million people died, including soldiers and civilians fighting for the Soviet Union).
- The FIRST thing that a large majority of Americans think of is using nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons should be the very last thing that any nation should use, as the effects are devistating. Not to mention it would also effect America!
- Russia is cold. Very cold. One of the coldest places on Earth infact. America is VERY warm in comparison.
I'm sure that the people from California, Arizona and even Colorado may have some trouble in Russia's -30°c. If anything, Germans would be more "equipped" for the weather. Not just by the clothes they would wear but the climate they can adapt to. I'm not sure if you are aware of the conditions of Russian and German winter. Research before you post!![]()
"By endurance we conquer."
The bold are just idiotic statements which reflect poorly on you.
And I am not sure if you're aware of American winter. Further the US has this place called Alaska where we have developed cold weather equipment and acclimatize soldiers.
On topic this is aing stupid thread and the OP should feel bad the starting it.
The nation that will insist upon drawing a broad line of demarcation between the fighting man and the thinking man is liable to find its fighting done by fools and its thinking by cowards.
Sir William Francis Butler
The US doesn't have the necessary manpower to successfully invade Russia. It would require a draft, and there is no way that the US populace would accept a draft to go fight in freezing Russia unless the Russians started it.
On the flip side the Russian military would be in no shape to invade the US, even if motivated by a US attack. I don't think the Russian navy has the capabilities to get an invasion fleet to the US. For that matter, I don't know how much of a US invasion fleet could successfully reach Russia.
Even if USA invaded Russia, it would take a long long time to conquer all of it, its a big land, isnt it. Then theres the weather, that wouldnt help the americans either, and I also think that Europe and China would help its neighbor.
I voted for stalemate. However, if the other nations helped Russia, it would be a crushing defeat for the US.
