Honestly I always wondered why Japan players never did tanks. Bo has proved my point and I am happy for it Stay happy funny danish person

[@XYZBestGen]

It may have been a case of horrendous supply in Asia and also that Japan gets few factories AND that their commanders/gen. staff give better bonuses to marines rather than armoured units. However who knows. I think the most amounts of tanks I've seen a Japan produce is like 3 at the end of the Singapore campaign or by 1942.

[@OnlyGrafting]

@@XYZBestGen idk if doing 20w tanks would be a workaround for the supply issues. Chinese infantry tend to be the shitter ones mass spawned in. That on top of the buffs Japan gets against them constantly scaling would probably make it viable as long as you avoid volunteers.

[@equilintogo5378]

The supply mostly.

[@bonkbonk420]

@@OnlyGrafting Depends. I dont know the balance in Asia in their mod, but in vanilla, you dont go for tanks because the supply is non existent. The mod they use also has assault guns as their own specialized unit, so their supply usage might be very different, as well as overall supply in the region. I do not care enough to check myself, sorry.

[@bondbrown3579]

Don’t be afraid to fail, that’s how you learn! As for countries that you could play as I think the USA or Soviets provide good experience for beginners. Make sure to update your unit templates, the ones that countries start with aren’t great, I don’t remember the meta but I would go for 27 combat width infantry with AT and Artillery. Don’t remember good tank divisions, but there are a lot of great resources online!

whats that mod that colours in the division stats

[@gamerz1172]

FUNFACT: The reason the japanese didnt do shit like this IRL is because they were idiots! And not im not memeing when I say that either, The japanese tried a tank force, decent medium tanks, mabye slightly worst then what the western tanks were like.... And sent them in to fight the chinese on there own and completely unsupported So the tank force got utterly destroyed by the chinese and Japan spent the rest of the war thinking that a tank force was not worth investing in

[@DillsyYourDaddy67]

Kinda like the Germans and Paratroopers. Dropped them all over Crete with inadequate weapons, supply and support, yet despite all that the Falschrimjager still managed to come out on top. Then Hitler decided paratroopers were kinda not worth it and instead re-purposed them as ground troops. In stark contract, the Allies were extremely impressed with the paratroopers and went on to make their own divisions, with the most famous being the 101st.

[@DominionSorcerer]

It was the other way around. Beyond barely having the resources required to produce them, Japan didn't see any need for heavier tanks because China barely had any tanks of their own and severely lacked anti-tank cannon and the infantry support and light tanks Japan had during their invasion of China absolutely decimated Chinese armies. They only failed when they went up against American and Soviet armies, who had heavier tanks along with far better anti-tan cannon.

[@Myopic901]

The rising sun didn't have a need to invest in a tank force knowing their mainland enemy, an error when they began to square up against the americans and british by the late war, honestly tho, they did have tanks of their own to defend their homeland but the two nukes made them change their mind.

[@alect525]

@@DillsyYourDaddy67 I always saw it as the Wehrmacht thinking that because of casualties sustained in the Crete operation, that paradropping was too risky an operation for the elite highly trained troops of the fallschirmjager, even though most of that training was for, you know jumping out of that plane.

[@jcnamaasshi]

no? they fought with infantry support. I read book about chi-ha medium tank development. Japanese medium tank were enough to deal with Chinese infantry. It had nice gun for anti personal and suited for china. but resource couldn't be supplied enough for mass producing.

[@timesnewlogan2032]

It's weird that we rarely see anyone even attempt Sealion in these games. Unless that's why Ireland was reconquered, the Germans tried to use it as a springboard?

[@SenisPucker]

Sealion is more reliant on the UK/US screwing up than the Axis playing well. Most of the circumstances that enable it (Japanese fleet support, control of Gibraltar, air superiority, etc.) only come about after a US/UK error elsewhere.

[@jorgemargenat2277]

It is imposible to do Sealion if the UK just parks their fleet on Wales on Strike mode. They will always have superiority in the seas. After that they only need to keep asw fleets patrolling the atlantic and air superiority to avoid paratroopers and bombers.

[@equilintogo5378]

Iirc the mod also gives the US a buff in the event of a sealion landing (similar to the Axis&Allies board game)
