In Scenario mode, you can play any of the battles in the game, and in Multiplayer mode you can fight a battle out with a friend, and there are unique MP scenarios also. In Campaign mode, you can play the whole campaign from either the Chinese or the US/UN side, do a shorter part of the main campaign, or try one of the 'other' campaign options, like playing as Veitnam and trying to take over South East Asia.

Nothing is really radically new or different - the game plays like a modern version of one of the earlier games in the series.
