"I ONLY FIGHT AGAINST CHINA IN CONQUEST"
There are currently 3 Alliances in Hotmod:
Warsaw Pact (Soviet Union)
NATO (USA, West Germany)
Eastpact/Non-Aligned (China)

CONQUEST works like Alliance selection in Skirmish. When you begin a Conquest Campaign the game will randomly choose another ALLIANCE to be your enemy. This CAN NOT change. Iif that alliance has more than one member, each mission will choose randomly which one it is. If that alliance does NOT have more than one member, you will only fight that nation.

EXAMPLE: Eastpact and Warsaw Pact only have one member in them: China and Soviet Union respectively. Therefore, if Warsaw Pact or Eastpact is chosen as your opponent, you will only ever fight Soviet Union or China. Only NATO currently has more than one implemented; when fighting NATO, you will fight either USA or West Germany.

You can find the save location for your conquest and edit the "enemyAlliance" parameter in the status file. I have tested that, it works fine.

@Simobombe It is an issue, 95% of conquests i hosted as USA were fighting China only. My suggestion for now is to merge eastpact and warsaw together for Conquest to avoid such issue and provide more variety for conquests played as US.
Especially given how China is just kinda pathetic, unfun and not challenging to fight against, even at the highest difficulty settings.

Try to look in \Documents\My Games\gates of hell\profiles\X\campaign.
If it's not there then I can't, but that is the usual place GoH stores its savefiles
