Fall of Nusantara-World in Darkness

Indonesia had always been a nuisance for Eurasia, a communist ally since the 50s Indonesia was constantly in a state of political unrest and rebellion within the provinces. Because of this, the Eurasian military presence was constant, with the recently annexed Singapore being the base of operations. In the year 2030 Indonesia’s civilian government collapsed with a military coup leading to the flamboyant General Andika Perkasa taking control. Perkasa oversaw a significant crackdown on human rights but also an economic boom and the construction of the new capital at Nusantara, a stunning coastal city with a significant Eurasian military garrison within it. Perkasa’s autocratic rule, despite the economic boom, exacerbated tensions in the nation so much that in the 2040s Indonesian republican forces combined with anti-coup resistance and led to the country falling into civil war. Nusantara continued to be a shining city, Perkasa had made it his fortress, running all operations from his strategic headquarters, while bolstering the Eurasian military presence. Yet Perkasa proved to be incompetent and delusional, in the field his armies could barely hold against the well-supplied rebels and he fired everyone who wasn’t his yes men. Even as the rebels closed in on the capital as all of Borneo fell, he refused to move. By 2041 the city was surrounded and put to siege. Perkasa was convinced the city would hold, he had designed it and it was the symbol of his regime. By the time the suburbs were taken the Eurasians got nervous. They flew in the head of the MSS to convince him to move and sailed a carrier group off the coast to evacuate him and their garrison. But Perkasa refused to move, his council continued to assure him that the city was eternal and could never fall to the rebels. Soon the NATO expeditionary force had grouped with the rebels holding the siege and began entering the city with the help of UFA tanks and EU-supplied vehicles. What Perkasa expected to be a bloodbath for the rebels turned into a full route for his forces, the Regime’s army was starved and was surrendering en-mass, meanwhile, the city’s police forces and the Eurasian garrison were doing most of the fighting. Within days the NATO army had reached Perkasa’s compound on the beach, as desperate civilians rushed into the ocean to try and swim to the Eurasian ships in sight. Any Eurasian officials still left were evacuated by Ansui and SF forces by helicopter, while Perkasa was found dead in the compound, his body split into numerous pieces like he was cut down by a sword. <.i>

Here’s the project I’ve been working so hard on these past few months, sorry it took so long. You’ll be able to catch part of it at BFVA this summer.
