Greater Karelia

More people decide to join the rebellion as most of the enemy strongholds have been defeated and the UNS council has left the planet. The recruits number in 300 000 people as the citizens in St. Petersburg, Tallinn and Helsinki feel more secure in supporting the rebels actively. These troops are trained for two months rather than three months like the previous recruits since Alex Ystrav sees that it's time for the Russian sector to fall. He forms a council called the Court of Provinces (shortly referred as the Court). Each city is given a leader and each city is given certain amount of land which represents a province. The Court and it's laws are being made and ratified for six months and after that, it has it's first session.

As the 50 000 troops are ferried back into Estonia, the new province in Greater Karelia, the troops are split into two groups and one group, with 15 000 troops, is sent to Saaremaa and Hiiumaa islands to secure the area and solidify the rebel control over the Baltic Sea. The 35 000 troops remaining are sent to Riga as a support group for the Kirareen rebels. The remaining 15 000 troops arrive to support the Kirareen rebels after a week of securing the Estonian islands.

In Helsinki, the rebel troops get their reinforcements which makes the army to be 250 000 men strong. This army is ordered to take over all of Finland and 135 000 men march into the city of Turku, capturing the city with 5 000 men lost. The army leaves another 5 000 troops to rebuild the city, re-establishing the large port town which is now able to ferry troops and supplies into Stockholm through Åland islands. The 125 000 men march along the coast and visit each city along the way where they spread the good news of UNS downfall in Scandinavia. Few days after the capture of Turku, the rebels come to Vaasa. They siege the town for several days and after harsh artillery bombardment, they storm the city, killing the tired and weakly supplied UNS troops in the city. As the other group working in Finland, the army of 115 000 men march across the central and eastern Finland have taken over the towns of Joensuu, Jyväskylä and Kuopio, the two armies are ordered to storm the city of Oulu in the coast and take all of Lappland. Oulu is attacked after several days of marching and rest, with the rebels losing another 10 000 men in the process. The towns of Kajaani, Sotkamo and Suomussalmi, right on the border of Russian sector, are occupied by the rebels as well. Oulu is rebuilt as a military port from which to launch possible attacks into old Sweden. The rebels leave a force of 100 000 troops into Oulu which prepare for attacks into Lappland and Sweden, while the remaining soldiers meet up with the rebel group in Eastern Finland. This group splits into two, both armies numbering in 60 000 troops and one army heads to the town of Kuusamo for a better position to start the run towards the White Sea and Russian Karelia. The other group heads into Kostomuksha to be the first assault into Russian Karelia and secure to halfway-point of Kirov Railway. The army heads to the small village of Borovoy and from there to Paanajärvi (Panozero), Krivoy Porog, Pushnoy (leaving 2 000 troops behind to secure the railway), Belomorsk to Kem. During this huge offense the rebels lost 8 000 troops since the railway was well protected but the small settlements were not. By this time, majority of Finland excluding Lappland becomes a rebel controlled territory.

As the assault has begun into Russian Karelia, the troops in St. Petersburg form a new army, numbering in 175 000 rebels. These troops are put into trains heading towards Murmansk by the Kirov Railway which has become a major importance for the rebels. The train is also carrying light tanks and other vehicles to be used in the assault of the towns that are to be captured along the way. Four train carts are even changed to have a railway guns. The train usually takes around an hour to arrive to Murmansk but due to the fighting that needs to be done at every checkpoint, the train ride takes alot longer. The first major battle happens as the train arrives to Petrozavodsk. The vehicles are taken out of the train carts before reaching the city and the railway gun carts are cut from the train so they can fire at the city as soon as the troops give the signal. The armored vehicles soon reach the city and the troops from the trains launch their assault and give the signal to the railway gun operators. The town is taken over after a week of fighting and the loss of 25 000 troops. The rebels leave 50 000 troops to rebuild the city and rename it to Petroskoi. The remaining 100 000 rebels reconnect the railway carts and get the vehicles back into the train and continue their way up to Murmansk. Along the way they meet up with small UNS garrisons but they are easily beaten by the overwhelming rebel troops. The train meets with the rebels from Finland forcing their way to the White Sea in Pushnoy and resupply them. The rebels reach Murmansk after almost a month of fighting the UNS garrisons at each checkpoint. The city is heavily defended as they had thought that the intel from St. Petersburg might've been false and the city was under rebel control. After three weeks of fighting, the UNS garrison retreats into Kirkenes and the rebels seize the city for themselves. The rebel army, at first numbering in 100 000 troops, is completely devastated and now only have around 30 000 troops to rebuild the city.

In Pskov and Luga, the armies are reinforced a bit and their numbers rise back to 125 000 men as the local population asks them to secure the surrounding area for their loyalty to the rebellion. The army leaves Pskov with a small defence of 7 500 troops who are supported by the St. Petersburgs garrison. Thanks to Kirareen rebels who supplied robots for the rebels, the army is also aided by 200 robots during their assault against Veliky Novgorod. The city is sieged for a month as the rebel army fears that they will suffer the same kind of loss as they did in Pskov. During the siege, the UNS garrison is able to break it in several places which causes the leader of the army, General Vladimir Putrovski, to panic and orders an assault against the city. This happens to be a miracle for the rebel army as the UNS garrison thought that the rebels would retreat after the siege was broken. The town is assaulted and the outer city captured by the rebels which makes the UNS troops outside the city to be easy pickings for the rebels now inside the city. The city is taken after another month and rebuilding begins after the rebels have lost 25 000 troops during the assault once again. The rebels send 40 000 troops to secure a safe way into the next city they plan on striking against, Tver.
