b) the annexation of Hainan island to the ROC
I read that as Hawaiian first time round...
Well, assuming that nuking Beijing is out of the question due to the bad press it would get, then reasonable war goals might be a) the confirmation of the independence of Taiwan and the destruction of the PLAN, b) the annexation of Hainan island to the ROC or, in extemis, coastal landings in south China in the Cantonese cultural area to annex a viable zone on the mainland for the ROC.
well that is anticlimactic... its like aa fight between a leon and a shark, noone will reach the other party. All this war will mean will be Australian airforce making hit&run bombardments from Taiwan...
But realistically lets see some chances here:
Autralia: 11mln
China: 666mln

I'm enjoying the story so far but, just to be on the safe side, does anybody know any good teachers of the Mandarin dialect :unsure:
