Mukden: Sino-Soviet Combat in the '70s is a two-player board wargame published in 1975 by Simulations Publications Inc., designed by David Isby, that simulates a hypothetical battle between Soviet and Chinese forces near the city of Mukden, now Shenyang. It was one of four games in the Modern Battles quadrigame, which shares a single rules set, and was also sold separately as a folio game. The game is simple, with only 100 counters, two rules sheets and a small paper hex map. Each turn represents 12 hours, and most units must stay in supply or their strength is halved, which pressures the advancing Soviets. Its three scenarios are Battle for Asia, The Siege of Mukden and Guerilla. In a 1976 poll it was the least popular of the four Modern Battles games.
