The lightning war in Asia had been horrific with great loss of life all around. China had battered Vietnam and Taiwan into submission, captured Okinawa and pushed Japanese and American forces back into defensive positions around the Japanese homeland. A land war had erupted on the Korean peninsula destroying much of Seoul and ensnaring US and South Korean forces. US Carriers were still a week away and the western media was already beating the drum of a lost war.
The Chinese government was quick to capitalize and brought forth a peace settlement at the UN. They would agree to cease all hostile military activities and withdraw from Okinawa if all US and Japanese forces would immediately stand down, recognize Chinese territorial limits and remove all military installations and forces from its periphery. While much of the U.N. supported such an action in hopes of stopping a brutal conflict, the nation’s that had suffered an attack refused and demanded that China stand down and withdraw forces from Okinawa immediately. The Korean question wasn’t even addressed as the North Korean delegation refused the meeting.
The United States military was facing its greatest challenge since the Second World War. Instant media reporting had created significant pressure to end the conflict as soon as possible and with few military victories it would do so at a loss. This was unacceptable to the men and women who had lost comrades and the current President of the United States. The tide must be turned.
This is a large single sided battleset scenario with a duration of 3 days.
