Rising Dragon: Platoon Level Combat in the Invasion of Taiwan
With the United States turning inward after the catastrophic Armageddon War, China seizes the moment to assert its territorial claims. The resulting conflict places Taiwan at the center of a military showdown across East Asia. This scenario-based game depicts platoon-level combat on detailed maps, with naval, amphibious, and urban operations. Players resolve battles through continuous chit-pull activation and stamped dice, while hypersonic missiles and advanced amphibious forces shape the invasion. Each turn covers 15 minutes across 150-meter hexes.
