I don't think either Raellus or myself have suggested anything different anywhere in the thread (unless you count my suggestion of a Soviet landing in Alaska, which was intended as a large scale incursion which ultimately ends up leaving the Russians stranded).
But a full scale invasion with Chinese tourists suddenly pulling assault rifles out of their camera cases and taking down the White House only to be foiled by Gerry Butler is pure Hollywood in my opinion (I'm exagerating a bit but hopefully you get the drift), and not something I could buy into as part of a T2030 timeline...

Maybe, but we're giving it a go...although it can be a bit depressing trying to think of different ways to screw up the World...!

That would be a gradual escalation over a period of time following an initial use of tactical nuclear weapons at an as yet to be determined flashpoint...so pretty much as happened in both the V1 and V2 timelines...which we're effectively trying to reboot...
