China can win but only through counter-attack, you can’t beat Japan by blocking thier path with units on defence.
Instead, let them take ground for FREE during thier move, and then counter thier infantry 1 at a time through counter-attacks. This severely limits the amount of troops japan can keep on the ground, and in turn, restricts the amount of aircraft they can use to support them (Because Japan is not likely to suicide fgts and tac bmb’s into plain chinese infantry)
This has been an effective method, each time I’ve used it. It helps the allied effort, by forcing japan to commit more and more troops.
In short - Play hide and seek with Japanese Aircraft.
WOW, YOU SOUND LIKE YOU HAVE PLAYED THIS VERSION A LOT. HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU EVEN PLAYED THIS GAME? WORD ON THE STREET IS ONCE. SHOULD YOU REALLY BE OFFERING ADVICE TO ANYONE AT THIS POINT??
Word is on the street that you should let go of the SHIFT button once in a while.
QFT!
How many alter ego’s does aldertag have?
Seriously though, I played one game the other day as Japan and the allied player just gave up with China after a few turns. If you can convince the allied played that China is a no hoper like AA50, there is half the battle won. He just turtled in Burma with all the Brits and I slowly advanced and took them out. he hid his fleet in British waters too off the coast of India doing nothing with it for the entire game.
Once Britain was gone it was game over as I had 6 cities.
I think China could be a major headache to Japan. But in this scenario where I went all out for Britain first, China is dependent on ANZAC and USA doing something to force Japan’s hand further west.
