Default Keep it On Topic, Keep it Constructive

Ok fellas, let's get this thread back on topic. There's no point in whinging about Free League did or didn't do regarding a global timeline. Heffe's OP was an entreaty that we, the community, create something in the absence of an official product release, not an invitation to complain that there hasn't been one yet.

I'll start.

With the combined military power of NATO and the PLA, the correlation of forces is just too stacked against the Warsaw Pact. Add in the tech gap (NATO's tech superiority), and the situation almost beggars belief.

That's one area that I think the 4e timeline could actually improve on the v1 timeline.
