Any chance you can post a quick guide on AI priorities?

I have an issue right now where my Nat China puppet (as Japan) puts almost all its units on the beaches and leaves a big front against the UK and Nat China minors undefended,,,,,

I am tinkering around with the Save game file put a litte more info would be useful, I figure you are "the people" to ask.

I figure that the AI is told to ignore the border with the UK because usually they're allied. (Wait a minute, this is true for DAIM as well... )

Open your savegame and look for a big section starting with "tag = CHI". You can add a few spaces (like " tag = CHI") to find it faster. Then search for "country_priorities" after that and delete everything in the parenthesis - there should be entries for ENG, JAP and the like. This should do it!

Yes excellent.

I also played around with the "Garrison" and build priorites (more INF less MIL),,,they seem to be moving alot of their forces to Burma,,,now lets see if they actually fight.
