By now, several years have passed since the initial emergence of the Kaiju. Their attacks have been continuous, threatening humanity over and over. Fortunately, with less of them around, humans have had more time to recover and rebuild.
The Russian black site that Baba Yaga was once in is radio silent. Desperate to prevent whatever lies there from falling into the hands of the terrorists, the devastated remnants of Moscow command order a nuclear strike. Russia nukes its own soil to prevent those schematics and prototypes from ever seeing the light of day. The resources are lost, but C14 is irradiated heavily from the attack. It’s not known whether it managed to wipe out the terror cell, and they had plenty of time to abscond with the materials. With the attack on the outpost, the devastation of Moscow by a Russian mech, the nuke on their own soil, and the destabilised geopolitical situation, high command is in an absolute uproar.
The next day, Vladimir Putin falls out of a window. The fracturing of the world superpower is prevented by the officials ready to take on the power vacuum. They reconvene in Saint Petersburg. Right now, their active projects involve ridding the world of the terrorists, dealing with Memitim, and making peace with the Germans whose outpost they’ve just assaulted. Assuming the fallout from a disturbed elephant doesn’t make things worse.
Down under, reports of the strange Australian cryptid continue. Several ships have gone missing over deep water now. This is, obviously, attributed to Kaiju. But none of them are anywhere close to Australia.
And finally, meteorologists detect and announce the presence of a large celestial body making its way towards Earth. It’s estimated to make contact within the next decade.

Sorry for the delay! As mentioned before, been feeling under the weather. I definitely want to finish the thread properly, though. So I would like to ask:
Who here still has goals they want to actively pursue, and compete with the other players for? The game will conclude once everyone has a status quo they’re happy with. For example, they’ve killed all rivals, or forced them into an alliance, etc.
