Turkey: 1 BB, 4 CL, 13 DD, 11 SS
The Turkish battleship was actually a WWI German battlecruiser that was trapped in the Med in August 1914, and “loaned” to the Turks for the duration. They kept it until after WWII.
Spain: 2 BB, 2 CA, 5 CL, 21 DD, 14 SS
The Spanish forces listed above are what Spain had before/during the Spanish Civil War, and includes both Nationalist and Republican ships. At least 1 battleship and 1 heavy cruiser were sunk prior to 1940.
Sweden: Couldn’t find much yet, but they had at least 2-3 light cruisers, probably 5-10 destroyers, and assorted gun boats and coastal defense ships.
Brazil: 2 BB, 2 CL, 7 DD,
Argentina: 2 BB, 4 CA, 30 DD
Argentina also had a couple of heavy coastal defense ships. Two of the four heavy cruisers listed above were older ships (1896), but still dangerous, if slow.

Japan’s real navy: 10 BB, 38 CA, 108 DD, 8 CV, 68 SS
Japan’s game navy: 2 BB, 2 CA, 4 DD, 3 CV, 2 SS
Ratio of real to game: 5/1, 19/1, 27/1, 8/3, 34/1Using the preceding ratios we get the following game navies
Turkey’s game navy: 0.2 BB, 0.2 CA, 0.5 DD, 0 CV, 0.3 SS
Spain’s game navy: 0.4 BB, 0.4 CA, 0.8 DD, 0 CV, 0.4 SS
Brazil’s game navy: 0.4 BB, 0.1 CA, 0.3 DD, 0 CV, 0 SS
Argentina’s game navy: 0.4 BB, 0.1 CA, 1.1 DD, 0 CV, 0 SSNow with my professional fudging and some sketchy reasoning I will put what I assume will be the games starting navy sizes.
Turkey’s game navy: 0 BB, 0 CA, 0 DD, 0 CV, 0 SS
Spain’s game navy: 0 BB, 0 CA, 0 DD, 0 CV, 0 SS
Brazil’s game navy: 0 BB, 0 CA, 0 DD, 0 CV, 0 SS
Argentina’s game navy: 0 BB, 0 CA, 0 DD, 0 CV, 0 SSsince we know there are no other powers in the game we can assume that these nuetrals will have no units on the map. but if anyone is creating house rules they may want to do something like the following
Turkey’s game navy: 0 BB, 0 CA, 1 DD, 0 CV, 0 SS
Spain’s game navy: 0 BB, 1 CA, 1 DD, 0 CV, 0 SS
Brazil’s game navy: 0 BB, 1 CA, 0 DD, 0 CV, 0 SS
Argentina’s game navy: 0 BB, 1 CA, 1 DD, 0 CV, 0 SS -
