Japan's rising sun goes supernova and engulfs a huge area of Asia and the Pacific. A war without mercy begins to develop infusing the whole conflict with a savage vibe.

If you don't mind your stories starting in the middle and you haven't heard the first couple of editions, well, this is a perfect place to start.
If you like your stories with the background and the context and all that, well, you might want to catch up on the first two shows.

If we dig deep in our history and our doctrine and remember that we are not descended from fearful Mendenna, it's hardcore history.
One of the reasons you can't put much trust in the idea of the lessons of history, especially when it applies to specific situations, is that we human beings see the sorts of behaviors that we admire and then we choose the examples that fit our bias.
