I'm not aware of any other options. I'm guessing the World Conflicts UExcel would NOT meet this requirement since it presumably covers the entire world, rather than being specific to a non-Western region, but that's just a guess. I will ask when I officially become enrolled (signed up for the Dec cornerstone) and talk to an advisor. I really wish Study.com would turn their Soviet Union DSST prep class into an UL ACE/NCCRS class because I actually really enjoyed going through all the lessons for it & then I wouldn't have to drive an hour plus when I get around to taking the DSST.
Two independent study options if someone really doesn't want to do the DSST or has a reason to need/want graded credits:
University of Idaho Introduction to East Asian History ($510)
BYU Modern Japan ($579)
The problem with the U of Idaho class is that it's not upper-level (I'm not 100% certain if the BYU class is, but as best as I can tell it is), which would mean all 4 of your electives would have to be. Not a huge issue, but robs you of the ability to get the easy extra credits in the AoS by taking both the UL and LL versions of Study.com's Civil War or Vietnam War classes. Another issue with it is that if Study.com's Historical Methods eventually gets ACE/NCCRS approval but as LL, you would have to find an additional UL course beyond just the four electives + capstone. And since there are no UL options for the other four "required" courses (US History I/II, Western Civ or World History I/II), you wouldn't be able to use LL in the Non-Western History spot.
For reference, here's the list I made of all alt-credit options I could find for the History major:
