I was playing a what if ... (I also cheated Japan big time!)
My Japan refused to ally with Axis. Before allying with 'Allies,' I demanded and got French Indochina when AI Germany Vichy'd France. I then declared war on Soviets after Germany. After I'm (Japan) at war with Soviets, I asked to join Allies and was accepted.
Yes this is an unusual scenario, but when Germany got bitter peace from Soviets ... my Japanese Divisions (Krasnojarsk to Vladivostok) got left in Soviet territory (unmovable land units). I tried declaring war to fix the problem. Provinces with Japanese units change back to Japan but then all my air units literally disappear (out of game - leaders returned to leader lists).
I don't know if this would work correctly if Japan was Axis. But it obviously did not work with Japan as Allied. My land and air units simply are left on Soviet soil. I couldn't move the land units but I could rebase air units.
(I'm also going to ask on another forum 'if' or 'how to' cheat provinces to change sides to manually fix the post bitter peace Soviet provinces that should be Japanese.)
thanks, ... I've enjoyed HOI for ages and eagerly await HOI2 !
