Originally the attack happens in the spring. We had thought we'd move it to September to add a little more urgency to things, you know, get ready for the winter and what not.
If we did get involved, or re-involved in Vietnam that would piss off the Chinese, whom we're going to feel we need. There's plenty of trouble in the world, the South Africans, the Israelis of course, those Jews never miss a chance, don't you know.
We assume the war froze things in Southeast Asia. South Vietnam probably can't be saved with conventional forces alone. Would anyone in Washin....er Casper be willing to pop some nukes to save South Vietnam? They thought about in 1954.
A military conflict chapter is still a good idea. Indo-Pak seems obvious, but both nations would be hitting the panic button as food prices skyrocket since the US and Canada can't export. The Norks won't be able to doing anything, not in this world. China sure as hell will tell them no. The Argies can and will take the Falklands without firing a shot....hmmmm...we'll see. Might be a good excuse for a British scene.
Come on people, why are we outfitting a task force and where are we sending it? Also, the president needs a scene where he feels he has to launch a preemptive nuclear attack on someone. Who?
The only places I think that would work is Cuba or North Korea that is if they didn't get taken out in the war it self the only other thing I can think of would be China do they use this as a chance to take Twaian
ReplyDeletePreemptive nuclear strike on North Vietnam. China never liked them. Invaded in 79. Could always invade Columbia/Venezuela. Oil and land for farming plus cocaine smuggling started off in a big way in the 70s. Can't have drug addicts post apocalypse.
