Strategic Timeline of the Moon-Based Nazi Conquest (1943–2038)
Codename: Schwarzdämmerung -> Operation Iron Wolf
In the final years of the Second World War, a project was launched not from desperation—but from vision. The Reich had seen its future not on Earth, but among the stars.
On a windswept coast in Peenemünde, Germany, under the veil of secrecy and insanity, the Hochlast-Mondrakete-4 was born—a towering fusion of V-rocket design, nuclear ambition, and occult vision. In 1943, it launched, unseen by most of the world, carrying not just cargo and crew, but the dark seed of empire.
They landed on the far side of the Moon, in the basalt shadows near Montes Riphaeus. Beneath ancient lava tubes, shielded from cosmic eyes, they carved their first chambers in the stone. The base was primitive. Fragile. But it breathed.
They called it Lunastadt.
When Earth burned, they watched. When the Reich fell, they did not mourn. They survived.
Between 1945 and 1954, the remnants of the Moon Reich dug deeper, clawing at regolith with machine-assisted drills and their own frostbitten hands. They found metals. Ice. Radiation. They found the means to endure. Then, they found the means to begin again.
The first uranium salt reactor went active in 1954. It was small, glowing, hissing with promise. It powered lights. Oxygen pumps. Hydroponic bays. But more than that—it proved that the Moon could sustain power. Not just to survive—but to build.
By the 1960s, they had mined deep into thorium veins and KREEP-rich regolith, converting natural lava tubes into the Eisenkavernen—sealed cryo-vaults to store water, fuel, oxygen, and the bones of future conquest. Modular uranium reactors became the lifeblood of the base, replacing the weak and the temporary with the eternal hum of atomic heat.
When the world looked to the stars in 1969, they missed the truth: Lunastadt had already transcended Earth.
By 1982, the Reich on the Moon no longer depended on the world below. It had power, industry, and memory. It had machines that worked, and minds that no longer questioned. The factories printed components. The reactors hummed. The AI watched.
Then, they returned to their ancient arts.
In 1983, the first dead man walked again. A corpse, reanimated by necro-reactor technology and HimmlerNet interface. A prototype. A success. Over the next decade, deep within the Dämmerung-Chambers, they forged thousands more—cold, armored, silent. The Schwartzenkrieger. Undead soldiers powered not by magic, but by science unchained.
As the 21st century rose over Earth, Lunastadt rose with it. Orbital factories began to dot the lunar horizon. Skyhooks lifted warframes into space. In the void, bombers and interceptors—each driven by miniature molten salt reactors—were built in silence. No nation on Earth saw them. No satellite returned images.
The moon had become a foundry.
Between 2023 and 2037, they built an army. Tanks, dropcraft, walkers, undead hordes, autonomous drones, and AI-guided pods. All powered by lunar uranium. All forged beneath gray stone and black sky. Every vehicle self-contained. Every soldier soulless. Every unit bound to a command older than any living man.
Then came 2038.
Operation Iron Wolf:
The stars themselves seemed to shudder as the Moon screamed.
Spacefighters blotted out Earth’s orbit. Drop-pods ignited with fission fire. Over cities like Cincinnati, Washington, and Berlin, the skies cracked open. Steel coffins crashed to Earth and split—releasing Schwartzenkrieger, VKL-Class tanks, and forge-crawlers that began to dig.
The Earth fought back. It was brave. But it was not prepared.
Lunastadt had been preparing for ninety-five years.
This was not an invasion.
This was the return of the Reich.
And it had brought with it silence, uranium, and war without end.
TIMELINE:
1943–1949 | Operation Eissturm – Moonfall and Survival
1943: The Hochlast-Mondrakete-4 series of launches from Peenemünde, Germany, landing Nazi personnel and core infrastructure on the Moon's far side.
1944–45: Initial base Lunastadt Prim is established inside lava tubes. Power provided by early RTGs and thorium batteries.
1946–49: Cut off from Earth's defeat, Lunastadt becomes the surviving Reich stronghold. Early regolith mining begins with exo-loaders and pressure drills.
1950–1968 | Projekt Tiefenschläfer – Mining and Reactor Genesis
1950: Deployment of Grabenwolf I semi-automated regolith crawler.
1954: First uranium salt coolant microreactor (USMR) goes live.
1955–1968: Lava tubes expanded into cryo-sealed Eisenkavernen, used to store uranium, thorium, and future fuel supplies.
1965: Discovery of thorium-rich regolith accelerates molten regolith refining.
1969–1982 | Infrastructure Completion and Modularity
1969: Lunastadt transitions to full reactor independence.
1973: Kernschmiede Alpha begins continuous microreactor production.
1982: All systems—power, life support, fabrication—run on modular uranium-based salt microreactors.
1983–2000 | The Necrophase and Schwartzenkrieger Doctrine
1983: AI-assisted corpse reanimation succeeds using MK-IV necroreactor.
1987: Dämmerung-Chambers begin mass-processing Schwartzenkrieger soldiers.
1995: HimmlerNet v2.0 enables networked undead control across vaults.
1998–2000: Full implementation of undead soldier corps powered by embedded reactor cores.
2001–2022 | Airframe Fabrication and Orbital Supremacy
2005: Luftstahlwerk orbital factory goes operational.
2008: First reactor-powered spacefighters (V-Meteor-Class) produced.
2011–21: Lunar railguns launch drop pods and interceptors into Earth orbit.
2022: Orbital hangars host over 120 deployable Luftwaffe airframes.
2023–2037 | Final Assembly: The Invasion Forge
2023: MK-VI and MK-VII reactors completed for tanks, dropcraft, and walkers.
2025: Höllenbunker-Class troop carriers built—each transports 300 undead, 10 VKL tanks, and 2 reentry bombers.
2027: Schwarzdämmerung pods tested for atmospheric deployment and autonomous activation.
2035–2037: Invasion fleet is complete. Earth-targeted assets await launch command.
2038 | OPERATION SCHWARZDÄMMERUNG
Phase I: Space-based Luftwaffe clears Earth's satellites and blinds defenses.
Phase II: Troop carriers and invasion pods crash into urban centers.
Phase III: Reactor-powered tanks and Schwartzenkrieger deploy, establishing forward bases.
Phase IV: Earth resistance begins to collapse under relentless atomic force, deployed from a silent empire beneath the lunar crust.
