So, China won the Great (nuclear) War? : Fallout Series Discussion

2055 - The West Tek Research Facility starts working on a new virus to kill the New Plague. Their viral research and close ties to the federal government eventually lead to them being chosen for the Pan-Immunity Virion Project twenty years later as well as Power Infantry Armor and laser research. - Fallout Wiki Timeline

FEV did, however, with radiation would effect the creatures that would still be alive, which give you giant ants or mole rats.

New Plague or Limit 115 is a socially transmitted plague which arose in 2053, killing approximately twenty thousand human beings in the United States, including cities such as Denver, Boulder, and Colorado Springs. The United States closed its borders and the first-ever national quarantine was declared. The source of the plague is unknown, but rumors persisted that it was a genetically engineered weapon. - Fallout Wiki Timeline

Hmm, so it did, been a while. I stand corrected, said the man in the orthopedic shoes.

I think you'll agree that whilst giant creatures trying to kill you isn't a barrel of laughts, Super Mutants & Centaurs kidnapping you is the icing on a very unpleasant cake.

No DC was not invaded by the Chinese, it was infiltrated, (...) We won the war, beat the Chinese back and the Chinese decided not to sit under the thumb of the United States and fired their missiles, then we fired our's, MAD. End of story, the world ended, no other nukes were fired as far as I am concerned.

Sorry to point this out, but; hell...!
I really feel, more and more, in reading most of the posts here, that an american people need first to write "we won the war", before even being able to think to anything else being possible or not, am I wrong please ? I suppose most of us here are between 15 and 30 y.old, and that looks quite logical americans of such an age are thinking such a way, as their country is still (always?) involved in wars, and they are the first to be targeted by any propaganda.

Europe ignores barbarians at his doors

" Touch? ". Well, indeed, during the last century, a lot of american soldiers gave their life during the Normandy assault to save OUR dumb asses.
May they rest in peace : I am quite sure most of these men had souls of heroes. Note please, I have some very closed old-friends involved in the french army actually, and they clam they are there only for the good pay and to watch out for some bloody action :
I don't think they deserve the "heroes" statut only because they like risk and money... Neither a "serial killers" or even a "barbarian" statut, but sometimes the fronteer is thin and true idealists aren't so many whatever is the side you choose to fight for, according to me.
Let's say it is more convenient to think most of them are heroes -not barbarians-, and, at least, once in the action, most of them will probably have the opportunity to really become ones.
Beyond the 1945' bloody sacrifice of faith from american soldiers which allowed my country to be liberated from germany, what I see is some huge tactical error from the american generals : Not the last, considering Vietnam or Irak, years later.
Many lives could have been saved this bloody day if US had less idiot generals, and as my country must in some way today pay to honor their remember, in helping US fighting against peoples who aren't basically initially our ennemies, I suppose less blood in these old times would have helped to give less of ours today.

Sometimes errors are about tactic, sometimes about diplomacy, but I guess sending bombs over barbarian heads doesn't make you more civilized than them.
Also, this is an evidence by our century, it often isn't enough to win a war for sure and it is more kindly to provoke more hate :
Blood calls blood.
