Rise of the White Sun - Taming the Tigers

Description

January 1929,

The victory of the Guomindang (GMD) in the Northern Expedition was supposed to bring an end to warlordism in China.

But has it really?

As discussions on general disarmament continue, many regional factions within the victorious coalition grow increasingly wary of Jiang Jieshi's expanding power.

The Guomindang strongman is now relying more heavily on a close-knit circle of supporters from Zhejiang and Jiangsu.

Meanwhile, the Communist Party is swiftly reorganizing. Though its strongholds remain scattered, they are steadily growing in influence...

PS:

It was truly fun and interesting for me to work on this DLC.

The documentation phase felt never-ending, as I kept falling down rabbit holes over and over again... I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
