Five worlds of Japanese and Chinese decent have quietly formed a plan to claim independence from the Eurasian Solar Union (ESU). These are unhappy with the Russian dominance of the ESU. They have quietly been gathering old warships and refitting them with new weapons and systems. Also, they have maneuvered key people into the ESU chain of command. Quietly, it has been made known that if the forces of the DSW worlds can stand off the 1783rd attack group, they will be ignored (not granted autonomy, but not brought under submission).

Unknown to the ESU, the DSW forces had "acquired" two experimental Wave Cruisers on a raid of the Moscow III research center. These Wave Cruisers were quite a surprise to the 1783rd at Ohara. (See Dragon Spirit Worlds - Surprise at Ohara).

The ESU now has sent the 1422nd Task Force to blockade the planet of New Kyoto. The ESU is mainly doing this in hope to isolate and cause economic hardship to the new Dragon Spirit Worlds government. The DSW government view the move as a prelude to invasion.

The game area should be about 4x8' (2 long tables side by side). The DSW player may place a planet (6" diameter) on the board within 12" of the top edge. The ESU player may place ships within 24" of the planet at zero velocity. The dragon spirit convoy will enter within 12" of bottom edge of the table at less than 12 thrust.

The dragon spirit forces must get the bulk freighters in orbit of the planet. The freighter needs to be moving at a thrust of 6-12 to enter orbit. A freighter may land after spending 3 full turns (orders to repair rolls) in orbit of the planet. Once landed, a freighter is safe.
