Any T2K material that I produce follows the v1.0 timeline.

The SVG reference to Japan is an interesting one. The SVG is styled as a history of the Twilight War, but it doesn't specify at what point in that universe's future it was written. Was it written in 2002? If so, then Japan probably wasn't nuked. If it was written in 2010, perhaps it was, but has recovered more quickly than the former U.S.S.R.

My T2KU presumes that Japan was indeed nuked by the Soviets.

As for Australia and Indonesia, since v1.0 doesn't mention a war between the two, the writer pretty much has carte blanche, no? I kind of like the idea of a war for New Guinea as it creates some interesting world-building possibilities.
