China is probably not yet ready to mount a complex air-sea invasion of Taiwan, with the mighty USA at its back. But it would have no real difficulties making land invasion into Russia.

Taiwan… not yet, too hard, but Russia is officially a GO opines our dunk tank subject, further free military advice for China can be found in the article

      Ukraine’s not even a supply center; Russia needs to take Budapest by the end of autumn if they want to build this year.

    It’s really funny how westerners think everyone is salivating at the prospect of war for any reason just because they are

    With early autumn settling in, the NATOists’ thoughts draw to winter and their desire to die in the snow in a desperate attempt to push east, like so many Nazis before them.

    China isn’t going for a domination victory. They’re clearly after a science victory. That’s why they chose the communism government for the production bonus. It makes more sense to maintain their level 2 alliance with russia for extra gold to buy builder units that can speed up lengthy spaceport projects.

        There is no other way to interpret this than as someone who’s been kept in sensory deprivation with only 4x games then asked to write about the real world.

        Like dude should be writing articles critiquing the strategies of twitch streamers not governments irl

    HOI4 and it’s consequences. The US couldn’t even deal with Afghanistan, but somehow all the military pundits in the west still think “yeah annex territory of a hostile populace, that’s what they want”. Why? For what reason? What would there be to gain?

    Why though?

    Stupid idiot with no conception of anything beyond map painting games.

    Why attack Russia? They couldn’t occupy it, you would need to erase the local language and replace it with Chinese which isn’t going to be something you get away with in current China not to mention the way the rest of the world would use this. Takeover or occupation is off the table. So what else? Install puppet that does what you want? Russia is already trading with China and doing what they want (mostly). What benefit does China get out of this? Unfair trading relationship? They’re communists, not capitalists, a colonial style unfair trading relationship like the west enters into by installing puppets everywhere in the world is not ideologically on the table for them.

    It’s so fucking stupid. It really highlights how stupid these people are and that they really don’t understand anything at all.

        This may not happen now but eventually China will want it back.

        Because some Chinese boomers cry about it,or is there a material reason you think so?

        Don’t see anything like this happening unless there’s regime change in Moscow and Russia becomes a western puppet. On the contrary, it seems that cooperation in far eastern ports is what’s on the actual table.

        Ultras are just being ultras.
