Wow, Laz, that is singnificantly more dire than my full on World War II Novel:

The Dragon's Fury: World War against America and the West

In mine, the war is 8 yeras long, involves an invasion of Alaska, and also the Chinese taking Australia and all of South East Asia, being allied with India and the Greater Islamic Republic and extending their allied dominance from the middle of the Pacific across to Moscow and Eastern Europe, most of Africa and most of South America and parts of Central America before we start to throw them back in horrific battles, including nuclear exchanges.

In Fallout 3, some people who are effected by radiation don't die from it. They SMELL like they are dead, and they LOOK like they are dead, but they are sentient, 'normal' people.

With indefinate lifespans.
