As you can see, much of South East Asia, is forest, and mountains, the Imperial army has its work cut out.

It is decided that the first round of research and production will be focused on improving the airforce, and Japanese industries. Contracts are handed out to the likes of Mitsubishi, Nakajima, and Mitsui.

Hopefully a strong Airforce will be able to keep Japans enemies at bay, and destroy enemy infantry divisions from the air, before the Imperial Army is needed.

Contracts awarded:

3 divisions are to be raised by spring, recent Shanxi activity along the Manchukuo border have high command worried, so it is decided that positions along the border will be reinforced.

In February, Siam proposes a lucrative trade agreement, and it is accepted, hopefully this will lead to better relations with Siam.

In March, the 3 divisions ordered to be raised, are deployed. They're grouped together into a new Army Unit. They're 2nd Corps. of the China Expeditionary Army. Lt. General Abe is the commander. An HQ for the China Expeditionary Army is to be raised as soon as possible.

Well, good luck, but you do seem to be researching a lot of techs ahead of time. Good luck for the 3rd try.
 
Yep, don't research ahead of time, at least non-industrial. OTOH, you could probably use rear area supply dumps.

Ah, and you should have produced those 3 infantry divs in serial run.

Anyway, good luck in third run and sorry for beign obnoxious ;)
 
How many is this? Well third time lucky eh?
 
Yes he's back! And now for some backseatdriving from me too: ;)

Don't you think tactical bombers would be better given the distances you'll be dealing with?
