Who Fought(Core+Allies)
- Initially, Korea and Japan(For the western front) and UNASUR(Libertadors) were the main combatants during the war. Heavy losses at Kanon, Otome, and Malvinas force the colonial nations to handle most of the fighting? --Five
- In order to pool resources, the major colonies(Nova Angeles, Colbert, Nuevo Colombia, Corregidor, Esperanca, Forward, Guadalupe, Jefferson, Marin, Oceania, Peron, and Tensai) sign the so called "Dozen Powers Treaty", organizing the Pacific Arm Colonial Allied Military Force, or PAC-AM for short. A regional treaty organization in the vein of NATO or SEATO, PAC-AM's joint command staff located at a heavily defended military bunker on Corregidor handled high-level operations, leaving command of local forces to their local militaries. --Five
- Main points of conflict were the Esperanca-Malvinas-Che Corridor, the Ophen-Oriole-Marin Corridor, and the Kanon-Otome-tensai Corridor . --Five
- Valera entered hostilities with Liberacion, Che, and Malvinas in response to attacks on her merchant shipping. --Five
Who Fought(ZOCU+Allies)
- Kanonian Celestial Militia forces were mainly involved in the Kanon-Otome-Tensai Corridor --Five
- Liberacion & Che's early offensive managed to easily conquer, with the help of pro-Libertador fifth columnists within the government, the planet Malvinas early in the war. --Five
- SIYAN supported the KCM's push towards Tensai in small numbers. The Erebus-Rapture-Furukawa-Nova Angelese Corridor is mostly low-key during the fighting--Five
- ZCM Pacific Forces, based mainly at Ophen & Choson, pushed up towards Marin --Five
Basic Equipment and stuff (Core)
- Korea+Japan used mainly a mixture of Earth-Origin equipment in the early war, much of it pre-breakdown. --Five
- Initial PAC-AM equipment a combination of indigenous designs and American/Brazilian/Japanese/other equipment. In the push for a degree of self reliance and standardization, modern indigenous equipment and licence built earth-craft begin to replace older kit. Standardized indigenous&earth craft become the mainstay of PAC-AM aerospace forces, with the CF-86 Puma and F-87 Hellcat becoming widely produced and spread, seeing use even with independent forces --Five
- Earth Military Forces use fleets composed mostly of Supercarriers, System Control Ships, and Battleships, which can be afforded in large numbers with their superior industry and economies. PAC-AM, with much less industry and money to work with, begins to use smaller, more cost efficient designs such as the BLANK and BLANK. --Five
- Valeran military forces were gifted reasonable numbers of PAC-AM combat equipment following their entry into the war. Or maybe they were given the licence early in the war and produced some stuff. --Five

Major Battles & Campaigns
- Battle of Kanon & the Kanonian Campaign: Same as it was before, just with less Americans. Japanese and Korean fleets suffer heavy losses in the end. --Five
- Battle of Tensai: ZOCU forces attempt to destroy Tensai's fleet to force the Core to negotiate. Becomes an early victory for PACT forces, partly because of the deployment of Combat Frames among colonial forces in earlier years along with the earlier embarrassment over Kanon prevents PAC-AM leaders from underestimating ZOCU aerospace. --Five
- Battle of Malvinas: UNASUR fleet jumps into system to support the planet against attacking forces. Fleet is ambushed and cut to pieces by the combined military force of Liberacion, Che, and the Pro-Libertador Malvinans. --Five
