The Suwalki Crisis

The world was still burning...
...but in Europe…
…the match had just been struck.

In the spring of 2033, NATO launched EuroDefender-33—a massive show-of-force meant to reassure its eastern members. Leading the charge, the 70th Armor Regiment of the 1st Armored Division deployed to reinforce the Suwalki Gap. Across the border, the Russian 1st Guard’s tank army and China’s elite 81st Group Army flexed their muscles as the Eurasian Defense & Economic Pact conducted the largest European military exercise since the 1980s.

Behind the scenes, a trap was being laid to shatter NATO and subdue Europe.
Would the alliance hold in the face of overwhelming odds…or collapse?

While war clouds gathered over Eastern Europe, the Pacific erupted into a typhoon of violence and destruction. When China attempted a quarantine of Taiwan, catastrophe struck. The vaunted PLA Navy encountered a hellscape of undersea autonomous death. When the Chinese ships sailed confidently into battle, they stumbled onto a network of AI-controlled smart mines, autonomous submarines, and swarms of kamikaze drone boats that turn the Taiwan Strait into a killing field.

Could the Taiwan Study Group and its Silicon allies shield Taiwan from invasion?
Would NATO survive a war with robotic tanks and AI-battle managers?
