OH... the author? Me, but I haven’t wrote it yet. It’s a brief story of a couple of Chinese missiles being launched on us, tracked in and it detonating high above us. The next part is 1000 US warheads obliterating China (30 minutes later...get it?) and us having 5000 leftover in case anyone else missed the lesson.
There is no “EMP alone” attack in the cards. It only makes some sense as a tactic in a general attack to slow a response hopefully.
we still lose 90% of our population in the ensuing chaos.
