New BS scenario ideas

[donaldseadog]

The release by Matrix of a new HUCE patch (with a very large amount of enhancements) has spurred on some of the Harpgamer crew and we have a new Pacific Islands battleset in the making utalising some of TonyE's tips so as to break the eastern 180 deg boundary and include Hawaii (Pearl Harbour), amongst other locations, and also additional island land-mass in the elevation map. The above pic is a representation of the cover we are looking at with notation illustrating islands that are available. It's yet to be decided but the geogrphical notation might be included in texture map.

At present we are considering a couple of strings of scenario sets in different time periods based on Chinese presence through many of the island nations. This has become quite topical with current events having China approaching many of these island nations, many with past or expiring co-operative agreements with USA and Australia, with offers of support and in cases of already providing military style law enforcement vehicles (eg mobile water cannon). A second time line of a rewritten early 1960s with an early conclusion to the Vietnam War, a continued close technical tie between USSR and China and close co-operation in the region between Indonesia and China, with a view to 'Fathering' the development of the island nations in their emergence from WW2.

Also on the cards a near future two prong invasion by China of Taiwan via Chinese mainland and a 'Blitzkrieg' style occupation of Luzon (Northern Philippines).

Much of the discussion is occurring on the Harpgamer channel on Discord and we'd love anyone interested to get on board.
