A25.23 references G18.5. None of the G18 rules applies to the CPVA. Although the names have "Chinese" in both, the CPVA are a separate ASL "nationality" from the G18 Chinese. I think there was a post where one of the designers stated this, but I can't find it. It is mentioned in this thread: http://www.gamesquad.com/forums/index.php?threads/forgotten-war-q-a.144234/page-3#post-1916845

Not normally.

Footnote 36 in Chapter W:
"...Once the lines began to stabilize in early 1951, Chinese infiltration and flanking possibilities were reduced, and the CPVA did conduct some high-profile, massive Human Wave attacks (A25.23) that mostly ended in bloody disasters for the Chinese. An SSR should invoke the Human Wave rules when appropriate."
