WWIII in Korea...

[dougeagle]

Another gaming idea...but around the time of the Korean war in 1950...got the idea after watching Greatest Tank Battles- Korea the other day. Here is what I came up with for the background concept...
"With North Korea having advanced far into South Korea and the UN mandate for an American lead coalition to help South Korea, Russia is against this notion. Russia stated that any UN Coalition force that sets foot into South Korea will not be tolerated and Russia will send troops to help its ally. Meanwhile, Russia has secretly built up 3 divisions along their border with North Korea in case such a situation did arise. Far into the West, this buildup is not noticed by NATO forces as all seems to be normal between them and the Warsaw Pact...yet the Russian troops along the border with North Korea are veterans of WWII.
The UN takes this threat and considers the action as false and the US lands first into South Korea. After several weeks of battles, North Korea is pushed back to the 38th Parallel. When the UN force advances further, they are met by more T-34's. UN force arrogance determines these to be North Korean tankers but are proven wrong when a large tank battle ensues and many US, British tanks are destroyed. It is then that they find out that the Russian threat is very real."
