10	* Recommended by ReiKusanagi, [=TwixTrix=]
11	* ''Status'': Dormant
12	* ''Synopsis'': You are JAGER STURMFUHRER, leader of the fledgling [[HiredGuns mercenary company]] [[BadassArmy DEMONS OF RANDGRIZ]]. In addition to fighting Imps for money and vengeance, you have your own private mission to hunt down [[OldFlame Karla]], your former fiance who sided with the Imperials and destroyed your home.
13	* ''Comments'': A look at the greater world of the games making a point to avoid excess contact with canon things, though he does mix in things from other games pretty well (One of the members is named [[VideoGame/ModernWarfare Ramirez]] [[MemeticMutation used to doing everything]]). It's rather dice intensive to be warned.

17	* ''Status'': Complete
18	* ''Synopsis'': The Empire launches a surprise attack on the Gallian border outposts, with Squad 7 caught in the middle. The start of the Imperial invasion as witnessed by Largo and Rosie.
19	* ''Comments'': A prequel to the game, and the first in an interconnected series of stories by the same author. The action and the characterization are solid, with just the right blend of drama and humor to keep things interesting.

22	* Recommended by Ogaiami
23	* ''Status'': Complete
24	* ''Synopsis'': An introspective one-shot that focuses on Welkin's thoughts following the events of the first battle at Naggiar.
25	* ''Comments'': The writing here is amazingly professional, with beautiful descriptions and believable dialogue. Also, even though it's written in third-person POV, the reader is made to feel extremely close to Welkin. It's angsty to be sure, but it's a good angsty.

29	* ''Status'': Dormant
30	* ''Synopsis'': An accident leaves the US Joint Strike Force teamed with the Gallians, the Russian Spetsnaz with the Imps, and the European Kommandos with the Federation. Things happen.
31	* ''Comments'': Aside from punctuation errors being rampant (this ''is'' fanfiction, after all), it's... actually pretty damn good. It is currently being re-written by the author to include much more backstory from ''VideoGame/EndWar''.

33	[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5515102/1/Red_Alert Red Alert]] by RedShocktrooper
34	* Recommended by Doomship
35	* ''Status'': Complete
36	* ''Synopsis'': A crossover Fanfic with VideoGame/{{Command and Conquer Red Alert}}(specifically 1) that asks a what if question: what if the invading Imperials were replaced by Soviet Forces?
37	* ''Comments'': A fairly well written fanfic that calls VC's idealism about defending your home country against superior forces into question. The Soviet leader's comments and thoughts about the Valkyrur are particually interesting and the ending and aftermath of the invasion is memorable.
38	** The Soviets might come off as a bit [[GodModeSue God Mode Sue-ish]] in how easily they roll over the combined powers of the Allies and Gallia. Not helped by the author himself stating that he loves playing the Soviets in Red Alert.
39	** As a general Rule Of Thumb, anything published before FanFic/ValkyriaFortress, [[RedShocktrooper I]] [[CreatorBacklash regret making.]] In fact, I was remaking Red Alert in the form of the oh-so-creatively titled Red Alert Redux. Which features Friendly Soviets and a more ''VideoGame/RedAlert3'' styled take on Red Alert 1 (I even felt inclined to call Soviet Heavy tanks [[VideoGame/RedAlert3Paradox Anvils]]), but simply put I lost interest.

42	* Recommended by Tropers/MrTerrorist
43	* ''Status'': Ongoing (author deleted original volumes and is currently working on a rewrite)
44	* ''Synopsis'': March 15, 1935, The Imperial Germanian Reich invades Gallia. What follows shows that a tiny nation could best a military giant. These events will tell a story hidden in the mists of time. A story of friendship and trust, of persecution and hate, and of love blooming even in the flames of war. What follows is a record of this conflict and of those who fought, lived, and died. -Jack L.
45	* ''Comments'': In this Alternate Universe fanfic which combines RealLife History, the Valkyria Chronicles trilogy, Anime/CodeGeass and other videogame and anime/manga characters, this [[ArchivePanic massive]] fanfic follows OC Jack Lawrence, an American volunteer in the Gallia Militia as the country fights off an invasion by the [[UsefulNotes/ImperialGermany Imperial]] [[PuttingOnTheReich Germanian]] [[UsefulNotes/NazisWithGnarlyWeapons Reich]]. There's also a spin-off titled [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13718971/1/The-Gallian-Germanian-War-The-Untold-Story-of-Squad-422-Remake The Gallian-Germanian War: The Untold Story of Squad 422]] by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/5881282/semperfi9988 semperfi9988]] which follows another character who joins the Nameless, Gallia's Penal Legion Unit.

48	* Recommended by Psyckosama, [=TwixTrix=]
49	* ''Status'': ''Was'' Dead, Now revived with a [[https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/threads/metal-gear-solid-v-chronicles-of-outer-heaven-mgs-valkyria-chronicles.50724/ reboot]].
50	* ''Synopsis'': During the Ground Zeroes event, Militaires Sans Frontières is transported through space and time to the coast of Gallia right before the dawn of the war. This was a quest detailing their recovery and integration into the brave new world in which they find themselves.
51	* ''Comments'': This is a great example of MGS done right in the background of a war that needed to be fought. All the characters come off great and it includes many moments that just warm the heart or cause the heart to pound. Just to give potential readers something to look forward to, the scene with Isara, Snake, and Kaz really captures the spirit of the games (before the series went to hell), and Big Boss's speech when they officially enter the war will curl your hair. The politics is nice too, as people react to the newcomers.
52	** The quest was stopped, but years later, the author took it back up under a reboot. While the prior quest was based on Ground Zeroes, since Phantom Pain wasn't released at the time, the reboot takes MGSV in as a whole. It is an absolute must-read, pulling your heart with elevated feelings and immersing you into the story of 'The man'.

56	* ''Status'': Active
57	* ''Synopsis'': A ContinuationFic hosted on Website/AlternateHistoryDotCom that explores the world of Valkryia Chronicles twenty years after the events of the first game. By 1958 the BigBad [[TheEmpire Imperial Alliance]] is reduced to a [[TheRemnant rump state]] with the United East Europan Socialist Republics arising from the Empire's ashes after a [[TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized violent revolution]] that [[UsefulNotes/RedOctober seems rather familiar]], Gallia becomes a progressive technological powerhouse, and the Atlantic Federation competing with the UEESR for the title of the being the sole superpower.
58	* ''Comments'': A great continuation and fan-made ExpandedUniverse that explores the world of Midgard through historical events that [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything don't seem all too different from our own history]].

78	* ''Synopsis'': The Fall of Cadia did much to the morale of the Imperium. As the Cicatrix Maledictum and its recurring Warp-Storms opened, one such storm caught, at the whim of a higher being, a Regiment of almost 5,000 soldiers more young than most you'd see in the Guard, shipping them to a new world, with new threats and, perhaps, a chance at Retribution.
79	* ''Comments'': after the destruction of their planet, a Cadian Regiment known as "The First Youth" were stranded in Europa, and joined forces with Gallian after seeing Imperial forces firing at civilians. besides the "False Imperials", the allying group must face [[ValuesDissonance religious and cultural clash]] and the possibility that the Cadians may not be the only one from their galaxy that has arrived here...
