This is the first of the Pacific Alliance series of scenarios. This series
assumes that the Pacific countries have developed their own economic sphere
and military forces. These countries have formed a coalition headed by Japan
and China to take control of the Pacific ocean area. The feeling is that the 
military forces of the Eureapeon and American nations must be made ineffective
in order to bring the smaller nations into the coalition. 

The Japanese feel that if Pearl Harbor is attacked and damaged enough, it will
not only weaken the U.S. position in the pacific but will also destroy the 
publics will to fight. The problem is that they do not have the carriers to 
do the damage neccessary. They have built several BCGN's based on the Russian 
Kirov class with enough throw weight to do the damage neccessary. The problem
is that they must get these ships close enough to fire their missiles.

This is not 1941, a suprise attack will be very difficult. With the available
recconasiance planes and the range of the American aircaft, the Japanese fleet
should be destroyed before the become a threat.
