Kursk Nothing is better than a epic tank battle. Tank vs Tank battle. German tanks vs Soviet tanks

Kursk. A lot will have to happen to see another battle the size, magnitude and importance of that. Also, IMO, the most underrated of that front, and perhaps the entire war, is operation bagration

Stalingrad and Kursk. Speaking of underrated, I thought the Sino-Japanese war was the most underrated. I mean, how many of us actually know any ww2 military operations in China?

Not many people know that if China wasn't in the war (and by China I mean The Republic, not PRC) , allies could've definitely lost in the east (an enormous amount of Japanese troops were held off by The Republic).

Yeah. Actually PRC did quite a bit too (Or they tried to; they didn't have America's help like the Republic , only a bit of Russia's help. )

The republic was the one fighting the major battles. PRC did absolutely nothing back then, the whole time were they preparing for the civil war (which everyone knew would restart once Japan left) and also, the only big action the communists took part in was the "100 Regiments Offensive" in which more than a 100 regiments took part even though most weren't even called.

The communists (not PRC yet) played a minor part in WWII fighting. Most of their work was preparing for a post-WWII Civil War, which they won
