    Speaking of what GDW hadn't done, there was an announcement in a Challenge issue back in '90 or '91, about a Korea sourcebook-then nothing came of it. That's a theater that certainly deserved canon treatment.
    Treat everyone you meet with kindness and respect, but always have a plan to kill them.

      You will be happy to know that Raellus is working on a Korean Sourcebook right now - and I know he is looking for inputs on the naval side. You might want to get in touch with him.

        Actually, all the technology needed to do that was available in New England. The machines, starting from lower tech, non-computer driven chip builders on up to full manufacturing facilities. And software teams
        . And the people who knew how to repair, rebuild, and use them; all within a 60 mile radius of Maynard, MA (Digital Equipment Corporation's HQ), some 25 miles west of Boston.

        (This was one of my points about New England, it's lack of nuclear targets, and available power sources.)

          This is why I so drastically changed my Version 2.2 timeline. Today my guys much prefer to play a Mercenary Style game than the "Cold War gone Hot" scenario.
