  • In the years leading up to The Great War, relations between US and China deteriorated at a worrying pace, in response to this strained relationship The US strengthened their military presence in Alaska to prevent a possible invasion across the Bering Strait. Due to the increasing scarcity of fossil fuel reserves across the entire world, many nations including those mentioned, attempted to locate and claim the few remaining reserves that were left. For example, China discovered a large deep-sea oil deposit in the Pacific Ocean, although their prize was short lived after the deposit was allegedly sabotaged by American special forces. Following this, the already tense relationship between the two countries spiralled into full-blown conflict, when, during the winter of 2066, China launched a massive attack and invaded northern Alaska, attempting to assault as far south into United States territory as they possible could, with a specific focus on taking the capital and removing the political and military high command structure, officially starting The Sino-American War. Under the command of General Jingwei, the People's Liberation Army took control of Alaska's oil pipelines and reserves, while simultaneously sending sleeper agents and stealth-armoured soldiers across the country, crippling defences from within and sowing discord among the American people.
    In response to the Chinese occupation of Anchorage, the United States Army got to work on taking it back, but progress was slow and resources dwindled. Naturally they wanted something more dominant than T45 power armor and more deadly than gauss rifles, they wanted something capable of quickly crushing the reds and their moral. As such RobCo Industries and General Atomics International were commissioned by The US Army to design and create the most powerful combat robot the world had ever seen…a robot called Liberty Prime.

    Did you know in the early parts of the development of Fallout 3, Liberty Prime was supposed to be larger than seen in-game, and the player character was going to ride inside of its head during the final battle. Pretty cool stuff!

    You talking about Anchorage remembered me of how cool a Fallout Alaska would be.
    Yao Guai Polar Bears, radiation blizzards, and Chinese and American ghouls still fighting over Anchorage are just a few things that come to mind!
    Edit: fur covered Super Mutants nicknamed "Nantinaq" and fur covered Deathclaws nicknamed "Urayuli"
    Edit 2: my explanation on how Chinese soldiers are still in Alaska: it is possible for a few divisions to survive in Alaska for the 9 months between the end of the Alaska occupation and the Great War (there have been cases of Japanese soldiers who were still fighting 27 years or so after WW2). What helps these soldiers would be America focuses on the Chinese mainland as the US government would probably just simply believe they'd starve or freeze to death and they'd probably rather focuses on the big stuff and just lie to public about this small minor detail - I'd also think the president and the Enclave wouldn't care too much given their knowledge of the bombs. After the war, I'd imagine they'd probably use the situation to take over small towns so they can bolster their forces (the US troops still in Alaska would probably do the same). I don't think the conflict would start right away but build up over years and possibly decades as they become their own factions that still hold many of values of each country along with the mutual dislike for one another. Anchorage would become a battle ground again due to the supplies still stored their as well as it being a good stronghold in the region.

      Alternatively, they could be what remains of a second invasion and it adds to the mystery of who dropped the bombs because why would China drop the bombs when they're doing an invasion.
