Anglo Isles: Difference between revisions

The '''Anglo Isles''' form a nation from the [[Battalion Wars]] series. Each nation in the series corresponds to a real-life country; in this case, early 20^th-century England.

The Anglo Isles are a small kingdom comprised of a group of islands, located to the southeast of the [[Xylvania]]n landmass. The Isles are a small nation with a rich history, evidenced by the many castles and ruins dotting the countryside. The Anglos once held great importance on the global stage, commanding a large empire centuries ago. However, the Anglo forces were decimated at the hands of the [[Iron Legion]]. Despite its current position in the backwaters of global diplomacy, the Isles are still a force to be reckoned with. They are also the newest member to join the [[Alliance of Nations]].

The Anglo Isles first appear in Campaign 1, where the Anglo forces launch a pre-emptive strike against the [[Solar Empire]], who they believed was in possession of a super-weapon. While the Solars had once wielded the satellite-controlling staff, the weapon had been hidden in a Tundran glacier by [[Empress Qa-Len]] after putting an end to the [[Lightning Wars]] centuries ago. As the Solars scramble to mount a defence against this surprise attack, Anglo [[Commander Pierce]] is having second thoughts about this rumored super-weapon. As the first campaign wraps up, Solar [[Admiral A-Qira]] demands a war of vengeance against the Anglo invaders, and enlists the help of their old allies, the [[Tundran Territories]].

The Anglo Isles next appear in Campaign 2, where the player controls the Anglo forces against the Solar-Tundran counterattacks. The Isles successfully repel [[Admiral A-Qira]] and [[Marshal Nova]] before learning that [[Kaiser Vlad]] had orchestrated the entire war. With this in mind, they called a ceasefire with the [[Solar Empire]], and became the newest faction of the [[Alliance of Nations]]. The Anglos then aid [[Marshal Nova]] in reclaiming the North Tundra wastes, where the Kaiser had constructed his Mining Spider. When the Spider is destroyed, [[Commander Pierce]], being an accomplished Fighter pilot, is able to quickly rescue [[Brigadier Betty]] from the resulting explosion.
