* Korean War Chinese always count as Green in Close Combat – even if Veteran or Regular (i.e. -1 combat modifier) – to reflect lack of training, etc. This allows their Morale to make them resilient on defence and able to mount large scale infantry attacks in the face of defensive fire, but also susceptible to large scale casualties at close ranges.
